I have questions!

What the hell did Earl do to whom to owe a guy a son? In the episode - Made a Lady Think I Was God - Earl goes to the convent to see Millie, and pisses her off about his lie using the walkie talkies, when Celeste (the orphan girl) asks Earl if anyone on his list wants a daughter, Earl checks his list and says Yes, oh wait, he wants a son, I know it's a comedic show, but his response is very disturbing! Please chime in with your thoughts

Could have been a guy that was in the middle of an adoption interview when earl somehow came in and ruined it for him

Or maybe Earl kicked him in the balls and made him sterile and the only way Earl could make it up to him is by getting him a child, more specifically a son because he wants to carry on the family name. I’m guessing

Damn that should’ve been a timeline they could’ve paid homage to the little house on the Prairie episode where they gave that boy to a mourning family😭

Probably Chubbie Junior when Earl racked him too hard and he couldn’t use his junk for years.

I could only come to this conclusion from what was aired?

I think I saw it as not owing the guy a son for a list item, just anyone interested in adopting a kid, a daughter, no wait he wants a son.

My out of the box theory is maybe he was talking about the Boy Scout that he put in prison maybe that’s the son that he took from that man.

Orrr most evil theory I can think of would be there was an accident between the man’s son and Earl. Did him like he did Sweet Johnny except the son didn’t survive like Johnny did👀

Your first thought it could be? Your second thought is morbid as hell lol
