This episode has one of the most hilarious and, definitely, one of my favourites flashbacks of the old Earl. Is just amazingly funny all the things that Earl and Randy use to do just for some free beer, actually the ruined the life of Scott, an ex golfer who use to think that he was an excellent golfer but when the things start to be different he begins to have an obsession for return to his level so he left everything (wife, job and dog) just to be again a near professional golfer.

But what Scott didn't know was that Earl and Randy were the ones who fix his games just for the free beer that he invites to everybody every time he has a great game. But this two are "natural born criminals" so it was easy for them to start abusing of Scott's generosity and soon there wasn't more free beer and in consequence the obsession of Scott begins.

Of course when Earl wants to fix everything, things are more complicated and at the same time he realize that his list is becoming an obsession, just like Scott with golf. And here is confirmed again the great brotherhood with Randy and finally Earl realize that family will always come first.
