The League (2009–2015): Season 5, Episode 5 - The Bye Week - full transcript

Ruxin misses his flight for a business trip and decides to hide out in Chicago instead of going home. Taco Corp. gets its first Worldwide Headquarters.

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
(crying): Oh, my God!

Brian, Spaz is dead!
KEVIN: I don't know who

that is.
Oh, no!

(sobs) No...
Hey!

ANDRE: Well...
PETE: All right.

There we go.
RUXIN: What's going on, guys?

Just Rafi being Rafi.
Guys, I got bad news.

I got to go deal with a case in
Houston again, tomorrow.

(mocking): Aw.
These shrimp fishermen are

suing an oil company, and I'm
like, "What are you gonna cook

your shrimp in?" Is that your
opening argument? Basically.



TACO: Fishermen are such
dicks.

Well, if you're gonna be in
Houston, you should hit up J.J.

Watt.
I keep calling him.

I guess he changed his number.
His Twitter must be broken,

too.
I've been DM'ing him. Nothing.

You know what, you have not
invited us to your house in a

while.
I want to make sure that the

Ruxin is proudly displayed on
your mantel.

You talking about the Sacko?
I am talking about the trophy

formerly known as the Sacko, now
called the Ruxin.

Exhibit "A": your address.
Don't you worry your cute

little pancake face about it.
It's there, it's up.

I'm not buying it.
Something's fishy, man.

What we should be worrying
about is people changing team



names mid-season.
Well, I had to.

Ellie was asking too many
questions about "The Pleasures

of Andre's Sister."
Well, we have all the answers

for her, just...
Yeah, that's what I'm trying

to avoid.
So we just changed it to

something a little more G-rated.
"Too Hot to Handle"?

Yeah, I like it.
This is something you're

gonna have to worry about once
Geoffrey starts asking questions

about your team name.
Oh, "Pete Top/Kevin Bottom"?

No, I didn't have to explain it
to him.

He intuitively understood that
you were the submissive.

(chuckles) Now that everyone's here,
I have a big announcement to make...

(inhales) Uncle Frank died.
What?

But the good news is he left me...
his van. Whoa, rapist van!

You got the van?
It's like brand-new.

When he became handicapped, he
couldn't drive it anymore.

Which means Taco Corp finally
has a headquarters.

Y'all know that was the only
thing holding me back.

Oh, yeah, yeah.
You were right there, you

know? I have so many plans for this thing.
Let us know when you're gonna

do the anniversary of you
getting molested in there.

I wasn't molested.
It was "Secret Wrestling Camp."

Okay, I'm out.
So much fun.

Ah... whoa!

What's going on up here?
I am cleaning out the guest

bedroom while you're out of
town, so if there is anything

you want to save, you better
grab it now because it is going

in the trash if not.
Okay, babe.

(whistling)
(clicks tongue) Oh.

This can go.
Later, buddy.

Pete's records... can go.
Whoa, the old porn stash.

What was I doing buying this?
Oh, 'cause of her.

Rodney?
Yeah, babe!

How's it going?
Good.

Okay, I'm gonna empty out the
closet.

I'm gonna continue to do
things that are normal.

(line ringing)
Hey.

You still good to drive me to
the airport tomorrow?

Yeah, I'll pick you up on the
way.

Okay, we need to leave a few
minutes early so I can throw

some stuff away in a Dumpster.
What did you do, Ruxin?

I didn't do anything.
I just have some old porn that

I need to get rid of.
You don't want it?

No, I don't want your porn.
I've got the Internet and my

dark thoughts, thank you.
I guess it is a little "Too

Hot to Handle."
Road trip! (laughter)

(tires screeching)
Did you hear that?

So you got me tomorrow morning?

I will be at your house in
the morning.

Okay, thanks. I love you.
Don't... say that.

Hey, babe?
I'm gonna take one of these

boxes to the bathroom and
just sort through it.

Bye.
Honey?

What are you doing out here?
I-I'm waiting for Kevin to

pick me up.
He's late.

Uh, what's in the box?
Oh, it's, uh, work stuff.

Ah! It's, uh, evidence.
I don't want to implicate you.

I... love you too much.
Okay.

Thanks, babe.
(phone rings)

Oh, this-this better be Kevin.
Hi. Where are you?

I'm late for the airport.
My car is gone, Ruxin!

It's gone!
And judging by the hot steamer

that someone left in my bushes
with Hubba Bubba in it, I think

Rafi stole it.
Yeah, well, what about my

ride?
It's too late to call a cab now.

Your ride?
I'm dealing with a crime scene

on my driveway, Ruxin.
There are dolls with syringes

in it.
When are you picking me up?

What about my car?!
Airport.

Car!
Airport!

Car! Ah... Babe, I can take you.
Oh, okay, great.

Uh, let me just, uh, throw this
away real quick and...

What? No, that is evidence.
Right, it's... evidence.

Oh, what have you seen?
Jenny!

Thank you for forgiving me.
You're very welcome.

All right.
Made it on time.

Yeah. Yep, yep, yep.
Text me when you get in.

Call you as soon as I get
there.

I love you, babe. Bye.
I love you, too. Bye.

I love you.
Love you! Bye!

I got to get rid of this porn.

All right.
Hey, what's up, man?

How you doing? Good to see you.
Here, take this. Just take it.

You want me to take your box?
Yeah.

What is it?
It doesn't matter what it is.

Just take it. I want to know what's in that box.
Fine, it's-it's porn.

Check it out.
It's, like, dirty stuff, too.

Like "choke 'em out" stuff.
God, you're freaking me out,

man.
No, there's, like, "really

hairy bush" stuff.
Use the Internet like the

rest of us, pal.
Some of us like vintage

stuff, bro!
Never forget your roots!

Goddamn it. I just need to get
on my flight.

Sir?
You can't leave this box here.

(nasally): I can't hear.
No, sir, you need to take the

box with you.
No, it's cool, man.

No, no, it's not cool.
It's cool, bro.

Sir, this box cannot stay here.

Okay, you know what, man?
It's filled with porn.

You can have all of it.
What do you think?

I don't want your porn, sir.
Well, what about some, like,

"hood rat" shit?
Is that what you want?

Listen, I see something, I
have to say something.

If you see an interracial
gang bang, you could say you

want it.
Now you're offending me.

Take the box and go.
There's gay stuff.

I don't even know how it ended
up in the box!

(whistles) Taxi!
Hey.

Hey, man, where you going?
Uh, just the box, actually.

Huh? No, I don't want this
box.

Just drive it to the city
limits-- that's all I'm asking.

Hey! Hey, get out of my cab.
I don't want that box...

I'm not getting in your cab.
There's no need for this.

Is there a problem here?
This terrorist is trying to

give me this box.
Terrorist?

I'm not a terrorist.
Sir, what's in the box?

Nothing's in the box.
I'm just running late for my

flight.
It's filled with porn.

It's not like it's a bomb.
Bomb! He said "bomb"!

No, not a bomb!
On the hood of the car now!

No, not a bomb! I'm say...
Spread 'em!

I'm saying "Not a bomb"!
Stop saying "bomb," sir.

I'm not saying "bomb"!
You hold on to that box, you

sick son of a bitch.
There's no bomb in here.

Stop saying "bomb"!
I'm not saying "bomb"!

Behold, Taco Corp's latest
venture, Taco's Truck.

He turned Uncle Frank's van
into a food truck?

♪ Where do you go for
mouthwatering food?

Nowhere, we come right to you
♪ It's Taco's Truck

Taco's Truck Grab yourself some
grub at ♪ Taco's Truck Taco's Truck

Taco's Truck
♪ Makes you feel full as...

anything ♪
Well, looks like he's got the

brightest minds at Taco Corp
marketing this.

♪ Taco's Truck For burgers!

♪ Taco's Truck For hot dogs!

♪ Taco's Truck For wings!

♪ And all sorts of classic
American things

Taco's Truck. ♪
JENNY: He's calling it

"Taco's Truck," but he's not
serving Mexican food.

We even have a patio where
you can sit back, relax and

enjoy some ice-cold Three Penis
Wine Coolers alfresco.

(buzzing)
Oh, get out of here, you little

bastard.
Get out! Oh. (chuckles)

Think his special sauce is
bug spray?

Taco's Truck has earned four
Michelin tires.

Ooh, that's interesting.
No, it's not.

Nothing says "classic
American fare" like "Taco's

Truck."
Ow! You... Ah, son of a bitch!

Oh, sweet Jesus.
You guys really needed four

hours to prove that a box of
porn was, in fact, a box of

porn?
I take my job very seriously.

Don't forget your filth.
(mocking): "Don't forget your

filth."
Adios, wanker.

(phone ringing)
(groans)

(groans)
Hey, babe.

I haven't heard from you.
How's Houston?

Oh, how's Houston?
You're not gonna believe...

how hot and muggy it is here.
I miss you.

I miss you.
It's gonna be so hard to be

away from you for the whole
week.

But I love you.
I'm gonna miss you so much.

Mwah.
Bye, baby.

So, Sofia still thinks
you're in Houston?

Yeah, I decided it was a bad
idea to tell her that I was

busted at the airport for 23
pounds of vintage pornography.

Look, all I got to do is cover
a few hours of videoconferencing

to Houston, and then the rest of
the week is mine.

Oh, Ruxin's got himself a
little bye week.

Sofia gets Terrific Lady
Days-- I'm gonna get myself a

Terrific Ruxin Week.
Yeah! Sounds like somebody's

gonna have an affair.
You want me to go have an

affair?
Sounds like you want to have

an affair.
Sounds like you want to have

an affair.
I would never have an affair.

Why?
Fear.

Look, as long as Sofia and
Rafi don't see me, I am good

to go.
You don't have to worry about

Rafi-- Rafi's off in California
committing crimes with my

vehicle.
Hello, boys.

You no longer have to eat this
garbage because Taco's Truck is

up and running.
Great.

Sign me up for some nachos.
No, we don't sell those.

Why does everyone keep asking
that?

Anyway, I'd love for you guys to
come by, sample some food.

And like us on "MyFace"-- we're
trying to spread the word

off-line.
Absolutely not.

I got to get out of here.
I got to get back to work.

Before you guys go, can I
crash at one of your places this

week? Why don't you just get a hotel?
No paper trail-- can't use a

credit card, no ATM machines,
nothing.

Can't stay at my place. Yeah, it's
too soon after Trixie. Who's Trixie?

I have a date this week, so
you're out of luck.

I guess you could stay with
me-- I'm only using two thirds

of my bed right now.
It's not gonna be a free ride,

though-- you're gonna work with
me on the truck.

Or go back to your wife and
kids.

Mmm. Think I'll work for this
bucket of meat loaf. Meat loaf.

We should serve that.
That's a good idea.

Honestly, doing menial labor
is like spring break compared to

taking care of my child.
All right, let's get to work.

Grab all of this stuff.
Mmm.

I don't have any plates.
Here, Ruxin, why don't you

take this with you.
Cutlery.

Enjoy yourself.
I don't regret my decision.

Get to work! Let's go!
Hi.

Hi. Is your husband home?
No.

I thought you already knew.
He's in Houston.

Houston. Well, do you mind if we come
in and have a look around? Uh...

Just a few questions.
Lovely home.

It'd be a shame to lose it.
I'm really sorry for the

mess.
It's really difficult having a

baby...
Did you have to wear the hat?

What? I never get a chance to
wear it.

God. So... (chuckles) So...
Sofia.

Is that a hearth?
That's a hearth.

Ever put anything on that
hearth?

Plants.
Hmm.

(whispers): Andre.
One second.

Got to talk to my partner.
(whispers): What's up?

Mmm. Can I get you guys anything to drink?
No, I think we'll ask the

questions from here. We'll ask
the questions... from here. Go.

Go ahead.
(quietly): What do you mean,

"go ahead"?
I thought you had a question.

I just teed you up.
That was for you.

How's your day?
Oh, God. Okay.

Have you seen a large, mounted
bust of Ruxin?

No, I haven't.
Never seen it?

No.
Never ever?

No.
Never ever, ever?

No.
So you never ever, ever,

ever, never ever, ever, ever,
ever, forever ever saw it?

No.
Ever.

No.
Oh, I eat people like you for

breakfast and shit you out
before I'm even done with my

first cup of coffee.
(sighs)

So if that's your story and
you're sticking to it...

Mm-hmm.
...then you'd have no problem

having us take a look around the
house.

That's right.
I'll start in the kitchen.

Uh-uh. I don't think so.
Ow, ow...

You and that stupid, ugly
hat, get out of my house.

I never get a chance to wear
it.

Man, she's mean.
Yeah.

Holy shit.
She threw it away.

Uh-uh. He threw it out.
That is low.

Oh, my God.
My Shore record.

I was looking for this.
Wait a second.

This is a jacket that I gave
Ruxin for his birthday.

And a matching hat. Here, you hold
this, I'll get that, okay. Okay.

Let's get out of here.
All right.

Okay. I need two orders of chicken
wings and a lemonade at table three.

Two order chicken wings,
lemonade, coming at table three.

All right, hurry it up!
Hey.

Hi. Welcome to Taco's Truck.
I'm Taco. What can I get you?

I'd like a chicken burrito.
No, we don't do burritos.

Oh, chicken nachos.
No, no chicken nachos.

It's just American food.
Well, it's a taco truck.

It's Taco's Truck.
Read the menu.

It's "T-A-C-O-
uppercase comma-S."

Yeah, all right, uh, uh,
cheeseburger.

Thank you. It's about time.
Cheeseburger!

Hamburger with cheese coming
up.

And where are those fries?
Table three's waiting.

Sorry, he's new.
I'll be right back.

Yeah.
Ow... ow.

Hey, shit-sipper, you're six
orders behind.

What's going on?
I'm cooking as fast as I can.

You got a tiny hibachi here.
You're not supposed to cook

all the way through the meat.
Yeah, you are.

Leave it raw on the inside.
You're wasting heat.

By the way, you don't have
any soap left.

I can't wash my hands with
anything.

Oh, princess wants me soap.
Ruxin, I don't think you realize

this, but the stuff I steal
costs money.

Yeah.
And why aren't you wearing

the hairnet I gave you?
'Cause the hairnet you gave

me is just a lacy thong, and
from how stiff it is, I believe

it's been used.
Of course it's used.

That helps it catch the hair.
Just... hurry up.

Sorry about that.
Can I add a churro, please?

No, we don't serve Italian
food, either.

The only non-American item we
have is Three Penis Wine, and

that's Chinese.
Three Penis Wine?

Three Penis Wine!
No, no, no, I don't want one.

Three Penis Wine coming up.
No.

Thank you. No refunds, sir. I don't
want a Three Penis Wine. Another one?

Two Three Penis Wines!
No, no, no, no, not two...

Six Penises Wine. I don't want any
Three Penis Wine. Curly fries are up.

About time.
What are you doing in there?

Been drinking some of the
Three Penis Wine.

Can't blame you for that.
All right, hurry up.

You're drinking that?
Yeah, I'm flipping the

burgers with my donger; it's
rock-hard.

Okay, I'll try one, then.
Can you believe these idiots?

Everyone keeps ordering Mexican
food.

I swear, I'm just gonna shut
this truck down and open a food

stand instead.
Taco stand.

Taco's stand.
Hmm, I think you'll find

you'll have a similar problem.
I don't follow.

Why would you?
Where's my sandwich?

All right, tuna melt's coming.

Hamburger with cheese.
Great, thanks.

Just keep it, man.
Oh, keep the change.

All right.
Still no Mexican?

No, but the wings are
delicious.

Yeah, I thought at least
they'd have a chalupa, right?

Oh, shit, I have to put Chalupa down
before Jenny gets home. I got to go.

I'll see you guys later.
All right.

Well, now that I've made my nut
for the day, I think I'm gonna

take off.
You know what?

You're in trouble.
You have not been proudly

displaying the Ruxin on your
mantel.

Busted.
Oh, wait, did Sofia try to

throw that out?
Bullshit. Don't give me that.

You orchestrated this whole
thing so she would throw it

away.
I don't know, it was on the

mantel when I left.
You know how those Latin ladies

are.
They got a mind in their own.

(chuckles)
Look, I'm gonna get out of here,

go drink a good bottle of red
wine, watch an action movie, and

rosterbate to my lineup till the
sky rains yogurt.

Peaces. Ruxin, you forgot to clock out.
Ugh, he's the worst, and I'm

pretty sure he's stealing some
of my stolen stuff.

Oh, he's gonna get it.

Hey, I'm home.

Happy sexiversary. Yeah, I know,
that-that's why I rushed home. Good.

I'm glad you did.
Wow, you look amazing.

Thank you.
Come here.

Yeah.
Mmm.

Let's go upstairs.
Mmm, let's do it here.

Okay, yeah, let's do it here.
Yeah.

Your team name, by the way, it's
so lame.

Well, you never know.
I could be too hot to handle.

Really?
Okay, let's just...

Mommy, I'm hungry.

I want food.

Just a minute, honey.

It's coming, okay?

It's almost ready.

It is an unseasonably warm
autumn day here in Chicago...

I got your macaroni and cheese,
hot dogs-- no ketchup,

just like you like it-- and I got a
couple apple slices for you, too.

Whether they are boating or playing sports...
You like that, huh?

Yeah.

It's almost ready, I promise.

Who can say I blame 'em?

This could be the last warm
weekday we get until next spring.

Back to you, Bob.

It's gonna be a hot one today.

(Kevin whistles)
There she is.

My little sexy dynamo.
Mmm.

How are you doing?
Uh, I honestly am in a lot of

pain.
Bam! You're welcome.

I call that move "the kidney
shifter."

Mmm, no, things are just not
good down south.

It's like Mississippi Burning.
I never saw that movie.

Well, it's not a comedy.
Is there anything I need to know

about?
Has your... been cleared to

play?
Wha-- uh, no, I don't have

anything.
Well, I don't have anything,

either, but something set fire
to these crosses.

Uh, I don't know what to tell
you, sweetheart.

How about tell me the truth?
Fine. You want the truth?

Yes.
Uh, okay, I have been using

your toothbrush for the last
three weeks 'cause I can't find

mine, and I left CB at a grocery
store once. There.

Me, too.
But I am as clean as a

mountain stream.
I am as pure as the driven

snow.
I'm spotless.

Impeccable.
Unsoiled.

Unsullied.
Unstained, and I'll piss in

every glass that we own to prove
it.

This isn't a lab, Kevin.
That's just ruining our

glassware.
Will you just get your equipmunk

checked?
Don't start equipmunk stuff.

(Jenny grunting)
Jenny, don't do that.

Equipmunk wrong.
Goddamn it.

Equipmunk dirty!
Stop it.

Equipmunk make my downstairs
hurty.

She's saying I gave her an STD.

I mean, I couldn't possibly give
her something if I don't have

it, right?
Well, maybe you did.

Have you had unprotected sex
with a stranger-- a woman or a

man?
No.

A prostitute?
Okay, look, do you have any open

sores or lesions on your penis?
Why don't we ask patient

zero?
Shut up.

Okay.
Cheeseburger!

Ow!
What?

Ow, I got the wing sauce in
my eye.

Wait, wait a second.
(laughs)

It burns, right?
Yes.

And you were eating here
before your sexiversary, right?

Yes.
Did you wash your hands?

Oh, you pig!
Yeah!

I didn't have a chance.
She was on top of me as soon as

I walked in the door.
(laughter)

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. and
Mrs. Firecrotch.

You are too hot to handle.
No, stop.

Best team name ever.
How could we have ever doubted

you?
Aw.

Nobody is ever gonna tell
Jenny about this.

We could at least tell her
what to do.

Get a celery swab, get some blue
cheese, and stick it right in

that muffalo sauce.
(loud bang)

Whoa, Jesus!
Oh, Jesus. Taco.

Jesus. Ooh.
Oh, Taco.

Oh, my God.
Taco!

There we go. Today's special: mesquite burgers.
(crickets chirping)

(indistinct whispering)
Shh, shh.

Okay, I think we're good.
(whispers): Are we good good?

Stop with the good, good.
Jesus, come on.

Okay, here's what I'm thinking.
We put it inside the fireplace,

okay, 'cause if we can't get
this thing on the mantel, we'll

have it in the mantel.
(footsteps approaching)

Okay. Oh, oh, oh.
Shh!

Go, go, go!

(throat clearing)
Oh, my God, no, what is that?

What are you guys doing here?
What are you doing here?

What's that doing here?
It lives here.

I do, too. Yeah, but you're on a bye week.
So? I had to come home.

Why?
Taco's got no shampoo, and I

wanted to pick up my box set
of Breaking Bad.

I never knew what happened.
I keep lying about it.

I just say that, "Oh ,the guy
from Malcolm in the Middle's a

bad guy."
Well, he starts nice.

He does become bad.
Oh, spoiler alert!

We had a 45-minute
conversation about it.

No, you had a 45-minute
conversation.

I zoned out and pretended to
play Tetris in my head.

Hello? Hello?
Shit!

Shit!
Hello?

Oh, God.
(clucks tongue)

Geoffrey got this one, too?
Oh, disgusting.

(whispering): Nothing.
Nothing's happening.

Oh, I need some tea.

Get that back.
Get that back.

No. God!
(growling)

Hey, babe.
Hey.

Ooh, spicy!
Mmm, I know.

It's burning my mouth.
Hey, the doctor called.

I'm clean as a whistle.
I am medically cleared to play.

See? Who knows what that was?
Forget about that.

I mean, what the heck?
All right, everyone, there's

a new menu.
It says "Taco's Truck, No

Tacos."
You have any questions, ask me,

Taco.
Also, Taco's special today is

the wings.
They come in three flavors:

mild, spicy and
too hot to handle.

No, no, no, no! Taco!
Be careful with those.

They are dangerously hot.
Taco!

Oh, T... Your dickis clean, but your
fingers are filthy. (Kevin sighs)

You went all up in my biz, you
burnt down Mississippi!

That hot sauce is so hot, it
made me think I had something

worse than the clap!
Oh, that's disgusting.

No, no, no.
Gross.

The clap's not that bad.
It's very treatable.

Just, come on, it's like a "B"
rating.

We're leaving.
Just don't touch your vagina

after you eat the wings.
It's not that complicated.

Oh.
Wait... sir.

Let's get out of here.
This is not good for business, you shit-pig.

- Honey, I'm home.
- Hi!

- Missed me?
- Yes.

- How are you?
- Oh, God, I missed you so much.

Yeah, missed you too.

This place isn't the same without you.

Yeah.

- Muah. Can we have sex?
-Yeah. But first,

I want to see my son.

- You're a great dad.
- You're a great wife.

Let's go upstairs.
Okay.

(growling): Oh.
Oh, my God.

Pete! Why is our son holding a
statue of Joe Paterno? Sacko.

Oh, baby Geoffrey. Sleeping so close
to that scrotum, forever unclean.
