Bad Earl
It sure felt good being out of prison but once Randy returns the list Earl’s happiness at being free turns to confusion; it was because he did a good thing that he got banged up in the first place, and his freedom was granted after he took the warden hostage. Surely Karma should be kicking his ass, not setting him free?

His confusion deepens after he discovers Ralph masquerading as Stan Johanson, the dead husband of the elderly and equally confused widow Doris. Seeing Ralph's sweet deal whilst he and Randy deliver Mexican food and sleep on the floor of the motel cleaners' room finally make up Earl's mind.

For two years he's being doing good deeds and in return all Karma has given him is a prison stretch for a crime he didn't commit, so he ditches the list and lives it up with Ralph. However Karma has a Christmas miracle just around the corner...

Having destroyed Darnell and Joy's caravan and turfed Ralph out of Doris' house, the gang's attempts to intervene go wrong after he runs away. But Karma comes looking for Earl, chasing him down the road with his discarded list, and swiftly following it up with Earl's second auto accident in as many years, before he finally gets his just reward by literally running into Billie, Frank's girl...

Karmic Words of Wisdom
"What's the matter Earl is Conseula's farting keeping you awake?" Randy
"Where am I going to sleep? There’s no room at the motel and its Christmas Eve! I'm just like Jesus' baby!" Randy
"Before I came to this country I never had any male friends because my mother always taught me men are only interested in one thing; raping your mother." Catalina
