Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Mild-mannered insurance investigator Willard checks on the claim that an old woman who owns a tattoo parlor has died. She tells him that her Ouija board gave her a message that she would be killed by a wizard. Willard tells her that she will not receive any money until she is dead, and she suddenly dies of a heart attack. Her will states that her killer would inherit her duck. The Dirty Duck takes Willard on a quest to experience life to the fullest. How? First, they're both thrown into jail. Next they go to a bordello to get Willard laid. Written by Alan Smithee |

| Quotes |
[in the desert]
Willard: Say, how did you come to be a duck? Duck: Well, I was a turtle for a while, but that wasn't going anywhere. Then my mother gave me the chance to be a duck, and I sort of flowed from there... [while the Duck is talking, a caricature of Frank Zappa rises like the sun over the horizon] Willard: Oh, Eddie, you have GOT to be kidding. See more » |
