    Storyline

    Edit
    Alan and Denny take a vacation to a dude ranch, where Alan's reserved demeanor and Denny's footloose attitude seem to cause nothing but trouble. Jerry's wishes to become a partner are jeopardized when he shows up in a Halloween costume a week before the 31st, while Shirley answers a page for Alan from Catherine Piper, who's in jail and ordered to stand trial for the attempted murder of a local physician. —Moviedude1

    • Quotes

      Attorney Melvin Palmer: [Riding up on horseback] Well, this is what I call a small world, that's what this is. Look at you, Al...

      Alan Shore: [Groaning] Oh, Jeez.

      Attorney Melvin Palmer: Snuggling up to your horse like two peas in a pod. Am I right Denny? Whoo-ee ride 'em, Cowboy. To each his own, that's what I say.

      Denny Crane: Who is this guy?

      Attorney Melvin Palmer: Melvin Palmer. I don't believe we've actually met. A pleasure. I am a big fan. Al and I go way back, that's what we do. Hey, we need to be bunkies, that's what we need to do. Home on the range where the deer, the antelope and the three of us play. This is gonna be a Hoot.

      Alan Shore: I wanna go home.
