Recap / King Of The Hill S 7 E 23 The Witches Of East Arlen

Go To

In yet another search to find a hobby that he loves, Bobby joins a coven of post-adolescent geeks who are into tarot cards and witchcraft.


Tropes:

  • Basement-Dweller: Ward resides in his Mom's basement.
  • Even Nerds Have Standards: When the other members of the coven try to cast a curse on Bobby for not going through with their ritual that involves drinking dog blood from a chalice by wigging their fingers, making "spooky" noises and chanting "destroy Bobby Hill" in Canis Latinicus, he starts laughing at them and tells them that his dad was right about them being losers and that even he feels like giving them a wedgie.
    • Nobody in the group wanted to drink the dog's blood and instead decided to dump it over a car at an overpass.
  • Special Guest: David Cross as Ward Rackley.
  • Stealth Pun: Their group is called "the Coven of Artemis". Artemis is the Greek goddess of, among other things, virginity. They're a bunch of virgins.
  • Take That!: The episode pokes fun at LARPers and occultists.
  • I Want Grandkids: Peggy says this word for word when she sees Bobby practicing witchcraft.
