My Name Is Earl - 01x04 Faked His Own Death

Summary: In order to get out of a relationship he wasn’t happy with in the past, Earl had once faked his own death, as in doing such he could easily leave the woman without having to deal with a break-up directly. However, it’s time for Earl to face his actions and he must do everything he can in order to make up for what he once did, though he finds this problem to be different, as he can’t take away the grief that he had caused this woman to have. However, his attempts to make amends with her soon blossoms into yet another unwanted relationship, leaving him in yet another odd predicament to resolve; though this time, he’ll need to be more tactful so that he can try to get her taken off his list.

Episode Quotes

Season 1 / Episode 4: - Faked His Own Death

Earl Hickey: It was nice to see Natalie so happy, wasn't it?
Randy Hickey: Yeah I'm glad she's not dead no more. Being dead is definitely worse than being alive. When you're dead you can't do all the cool stuff you can do when you're alive. You and I, we can do all kinds of cool stuff cuz we're living, we're not dead, we're alive. If we were dead we wouldn't be able to do all the cool stuff we can do, becuz we're alive. Dead people can't do cool stuff. Only people that are alive can do cool stuff, cuz they're living, and you have to be living to be able to do cool stuff. You have to be alive. Yeah, 'cept when you're alive sometimes bad stuff happens too. Like sometimes you can get into a car wreck, or you can have a headache or twist your ankle or even stub your big toe... So being alive is kinda hard too, but I think it's definitely better than being dead...
