- Cotton is still alive as Hank continues to attempt dealing with unresolved issues.
King of the Hill - S12E05 Death Picks Cotton
When the family goes out to a restaurant where the food is cooked at the table Cotton throws a tantrum and gets into a fight with the chef. The fight leaves Cotton near death in the hospital.
“I don’t know how he was revived or how he’s talking to us now.” Spite. Pure spite. It’s a powerful thing.
Knowing Cotton I feel like what he said about the Grim Reaper was true lol
"The Dark Side of the force leads to abilities some call... _unnatural."_
@@haphazardprismSounds like a hell of a man.
Terminal lucidity
@@bcubed72 "Is it possible to learn this power?"
The doctors reaction to is he going to make it is the most cold blooded thing
Yeah, that was... _shockingly_ blunt. I get the feeling words were exchanged before the others got there.
Ive met doctors like this. The really smart ones lack all social awareness.
@@TLR_Eden Sometimes people in the field like doctors or first responders will intentionally put on a stone face when saying this kind of stuff because they actually are aware that their emotions may get the best of them
@@The_Mighty_Fiction feeling? 😂 words WERE exchanged
@@KevSheehan You can put on a stone face and still show social tact. The British have made an artform out of it. The people you were referring to just had poor social skills.
"All this dying's got me thinking I might not live forever"
XD
Sounds like the title of a country music song.
@@IowanMatthew683 I bet it sound good
Peggy just dutifully writing down to cut off his head and mail it to Japan is priceless.
It's always good to respect the wishes of the departed
That's not what she wrote. She handed hank the note and he literally read it out loud.
Bro made himself die just to avoid a heart to heart with his son
Like, Damn
He brings a good point, speak your piece or miss out and regret it forever. It's not something I would do to my son but It is something my dad would have done to me if I was a bit more like hank, as hesitant as he was.
No, he was tired of Hank trying to avoid being direct with him.
Peggy taking notes is hilarious to me
🗒
@@Frankie-O
-cut off head
-mail to Japanese emperor
-worms?
Cotton hates her for being an uppity, egotistical, and annoying bitch. Peggy hates him for being boorish, unhinged, and rude to everyone. She only took notes to ensure he dies the ay he wants, and her watching him die happily.
She just wrote “well be on the beach with mojitos” because she hates him even funnier in my opinion, faking to take notes of the last wishes of a spiteful person you hate. 😂
Same and I don't know why
I feel like this is why Cotton loves Bobby. Bobby isn't afraid of being who he is, or how he feels, but Hank has hesitation of how others view him and that's why Cotton mocks Hank for it. Just my thoughts.
I completely agree with you. Bobby is confident, practically carefree, and hardly afraid of taking chances.
Bobby isn't afraid to be who he is because he has a father who loves him and does his best to understand him even when he ain't right. Cotton, on the other hand, isn't fit to raise a dog, much less a child.
@@The_Mighty_Fiction Very true. Cotton was right about Hank being the better father. However, Peggy, imo, played a bigger role in shaping Bobby's creativity and confidence. Hank can say the boy ain't right, but Hank's the one who ain't right; deep down, he's jealous of Bobby.
@@JosephDanielsTC7R Peggy allows the boy free rein without judgment, true, but she also lacks Hank's restraint and good sense (she once recommended a recipe for mustard gas as a cleaning solution, for God's sake) and since Bobby looks up to his dad, he gets the best of both worlds from his mother's encouragement and the boundaries his father sets that keep him from any serious troubles. Also, Hank often feels jealousy, disappointment _and_ pride for Bobby but he at least has enough self-awareness to realize when he's hurting his son and make it right (the episode with the ventriloquist's dummy springs immediately to mind). Cotton never once gave a rat shit in a rusty bucket if he hurt his son.
@@The_Mighty_Fiction Bobby got a lot of the best traits of both Hank and Peggy, which is why Bobby IS right, and Hank, whom was raised by a bad father [Cotton], is actually the one who ain't right.
Learning to slow his heart rate to near death is a cool and a scary skill
for real its superhuman. and its proof that cotton could have been telling the truth about his war stories all along unlike what peggy suspects.
@@harrisonc985No.
@@harrisonc985 he is the only character who recognized Khan as Laotian after a 2 second look and smell. You lads know why that is? He killed a lot of people in a war with laotians and japanese in it, and he was intructed to differentiate laotians from not laotians... to pile the bodies. Khan got shook from this. Cotton is NOT bluffing
All the crazy things he said he done. Might of been true.
@@harrisonc985He’s not lying about all of them but I believe it’s GREATLY exaggerated. Kinda like how marines brag about their skills so they don’t have to face the fact that they’re just the army but with less funding 😂
I think somehow deep down that Cotton was being aweful so he could die alone. That he wanted Hank to move on and not tie himself down because of him dying.
Even the scene not included in this clip where he lets Peggy go all out on him, was to let her air out and have closure by telling him what she thought of him.
Well, he did literally state "I want to die alone". So yeah, probably.
That be dumb if so
He was evil to the core. He could care less about how his son deals with his death. The only thing keeping him alive was knowing that he could use his dying hours to spread more misery. He only kicked the bucket when Peggy told him she wanted him to live forever. His death was literally his final f you to the world.
@@dyshawmboldin5203not really here mwntioned how he burned ever bridge he ever made with everyone.
Hanks fear of Cotton not being loved seems more like a projection of how he feels about being remembered more than actually comforting Cotton
I’ll miss Cotton. I miss this show in general. I’m grateful they gave us so many episodes while they were writing it though. One of the only shows that always made me feel warm and fuzzy in my heart at the end of each episode.
I'm scared the reboot won't bé as good
Even on his father’s death bad, Hank is still uncomfortable showing emotion.
Can you blame him? He tries opening up to his father and a dying Cotton makes fun of him for it.
@@lazyquahog9385 My gawd... Mr Strickland.... I love you sir
@@lazyquahog9385I think it’s Hank being so uncomfortable in his own skin that Cotton thinks it’s funny. I can tell you if Bobby were tearing up next to him, Cotton would be acting different. It could also be Cotton projecting his own fear of death and keeping the mask of “I hate everyone” up to avoid pain or showing weakness to himself.
"All this dying's got me thinking I might not live forever" is 100% no joke something my own dad would say on his death bed, followed by his dorky little laugh we all love.
Later King of the Hill wasn't great but this episode/moment messed me up bad. There's no happy ending or closure. Peggy comes in, tells him off, he dies, then Peggy lies to Hank that Cotton said he loved him. We end on a bittersweet lie. It fits Cotton and Hank's relationship perfectly by as a viewer...it just kind of was bleak and depressing. Hopefully if this show ever comes back these emotions can be explored more
Not really? Cotton is a complex character, and in this video he explains that he doesn't want anyone to mourn him by "burning all his bridges". People say this is a return of Cotton being a selfish ass, but in reality Cotton knows he fucked up. Cotton knows he has done awful things, and for the most part should be forgotten. He knows he fucked up Hank, and he wants Hank to finally admit that he's awful because he knows he's been. Peggy being at least moderately good at emotional intelligence gives both what Cotton and Hank want. Hank wants something that just isn't there, while Cotton knows he deserves to be called out. Like honestly this is one of the best episodes of King of the Hill because it understands its characters so well.
@@LOSTLEAD8R Dang, I never thought of it like that but you've put it perfectly. I'd always been annoyed that in this episode Cotton as a character ended back where he first started rather than the growth he had in prior episodes but that's sort of the point isn't it? Cotton could've set things right in at least some modicum of a way but that would mean he'd be thought of differently and more positively for actions he himself knows he absolutely does not deserve. Like when he takes blame for the Church fire in Bobby's place he's not upset for taking the blame he's being given, he's genuinely upset that he's being forgiven for it and everyone fawning over him.
This show was very cold...the deaths of that one angry dude hank befriends in anger management dying cause he barks at bill and dale for being dicks the pig guy that tried to control luanne obviously buckley in the mall fire plus lustful debbie and cotton are all handled poorly
@@razkable That's what death is like in reality, cold. They weren't handled poorly at all, just realistically.
@@rickyray2794 true, a lot of people dont get to say their last goodbyes and even when they can its too awkward or hard because they are not used to it, doesnt mean its not there, dads are just like that sometimes and people often die without speaking their minds so its a lesson to us all to speak our minds while we can
Hank's Wife is more than happy to help.
Peggy
She already promised him that she would dance in his grave
Hank's wife really told off Cotton, that was the best way to send him off.
Kinda ironic how Cotton loves Bobby because he isn’t afraid to be who he is or make mistakes, and also belittles Hank for being the opposite.
But Cotton is the one who made Hank that way through awful parenting and abuse.
At first I thought it was weird that Cotton would have seen all the men he killed up in Heaven. Then I realized, "Ohhhhhh..."
No, he meant heaven. It was war, so Cotton didn't see the men he killed as bad or evil.
Cotton is a strange interesting individual
Built himself to be hard as steel but has hard time trying to socialize which probably coast him familial moments
He’s truly a product of his time
Sometimes I wonder if my grandpa was like this. He was a war veteran with a temper but he died before I was born and my Dad, Grandma, and Aunts never talk about him. Learned more from Find a Grave about him than my actual relatives told me. Learning about relatives on my Dad's side of the family is like pulling teeth.
Sorry I just needed somewhere to vent.
Spend a few hours with your relatives in a private, comfortable setting and maybe with some alcohol lol. That usually helps people talk
GODBLESS you Patrick GOD loves you!!!!
My condolences, but wtf is Find a Grave? That's an actual thing?
@@Chiefaroni Yeah you can look up dead people and it’ll show you a picture of the grave, and you can leave digital flowers or post your condolences there.
@@crisptomato9495 Huh. Thanks for the info, but the name still sounds creepy without context
Bitter and angry to the very end. Most writers would try to make a chatacter sympathetic before they die. Cotton was an awful man and father. But at least he never hid it so that way people could avoid him easier
Cotton was the most based man to ever walk on 2 knees.
Based or Biased? lol
Reported because your about the 278 millionth person to use that stupid term.
@@scottcarey7725based
He is still walling on his feet. He just has no shins.
@@xxfalconarasxx5659joke detected. Ruining fun in progress
My dad knows the heart rate trick and has scared the bejesus out of a few doctors in his day.
I think deep down Cotton loved Hank. If he truly hated Hank he'd want nothing to do with him and his family.
Remember, Cotton is an old school WW2 vet that stared Death right in the face. After experiencing that, he felt he had to make sure Hank was toughened up in case that and Vietnam (which Hank just barely young enough to avoid the draft) ever happens again. To Cotton, softness gets you killed.
Except Cotton's parenting traumatized Hank and left him unable to cope in certain situations
@@rosesweetcharlotte have your ever delt with a vet from that era?
@@jamestheproexpat Well, yes. My grandpa just missed fighting in WW2. He finished training right when it was ending. But he and his friend volunteered for a fun position where after two weeks of dental training, they were sent off to the Pacific to recover the dead bodies of American soldiers. It wrecked him
Cotton absolutely loved Hank. When he saw him getting a tree with someone else when it was their Christmas bond, he got very upset.
He did love hank forsure he even got jealous because hank told his boss that he loved him in that one episode
I love Cotton ❤️ he's awful
He was more than a bad grandpa, and so was Walt Kowalski on Gran Torino.
@@Frankie-O The worst father/grandfather that we could have
Better man than anybody in this current generation
hes like my grandpa..... i couldnt understand him at times, hes a small man now who seems crazy at times but the more i see society and what its bcome the more respect i have for my old grandpa
@@Suhi254best comment 😁🤣
Even without shins, he cast the largest shadow out of all the characters on the show. It's a real shame he wasn't a regular and only showed up a couple of times per season.
So Cotton learned how to slow his heartbeat down to fool the monitor...and The Flash learned how to speed his heartrate *up* to helicopter the meter into reading zero.
Hell, even James Bond used Cotton's method once.
What's his deal with the Emperor? They did a whole two-part episode where he made peace with his past and received a goodwill medal from him.
Yeah, he wasn't trying to kill em, just "scare that som bitch". Think of it as endearment to a former foe.
Cotton in this scene is also suffering from dementia and pre-death fogginess
king of the hill sort of forgets continuity. Plus o felt like they've butchered him in this episode.
Peggy has 3 mothers
@@austinmccon2759 lots of people do these days, don’t judge.
I swear even in near death Cotton can't even muster up the gonads to have a heart-felt moment with own his son for at least one time before he dies.
Classic old Cotton as always.
Bobby loved Cotton.
Goodbye Ging Ging
He was saying he did'nt love anybody to sound tough.
@@Mohico-San He said nobody loved him, not the other way around
What a man
If I had him for a grandfather I'd be asking him to teach me his tricks
He'd tell you to piss off and leave him be. And then, after he was dead, you'd realize that WAS the trick all along.
@@masterxl97Funny enough, Cotton genuinely loves Bobby.
*i saw the grim reaper,50 men and my shins*
My grandma was exactly like Cotton. She only loved herself, and Regis Philbman. She was rage/spite living until he died. The day she found out he died, she just…..died.
Hank cried like a baby when his truck broke down. Hank had a hard time crying when his dad "died"
I can sympathize with that. I had a laptop that I used the crap out of for years. One day she gave me the dreaded blue screen. At first I thought I might've had a virus so I took her to Best Buy and the Geek Squad guy told me a chip had gone bad and Dell didn't make that chip anymore. I kept the hard drive so I didn't lose any schoolwork.
When my abusive drunk of a father's heart gave up on him in the middle of the night, my response was indifference when the cops told my mom that they found him.
I still miss him a little, I know it wasn't his fault. He was sick and didn't get help. I sort of wish he didn't quit the Army before he completed basic training. I feel like he would learn that he could go to others when he needed help. He also would've made a good paratrooper, he was certainly brave enough and he almost never quit.
This gotta be the only king of the hill clip with 4K quality on youtube
Fr
He birthed himself. Let that sink in.
I also saw the fifty men I killed. They're up their waiting for me and they're angry. God I love Cotton
@Lycanthropic Enterprise Maybe hell expanded and now heaven is inside hell.
@@jackbrennan1125 or that Cotton believes he's going to hell
I wonder if Hank inherited his mother's kindness.
I think he did.
And Hank was a much better father than his own!
"Mr. Reaper, I prefer if you put your hood back on."
Cotton has the best one liners, I bet he's fighting the Tojos from beyond the toilet bowl, with his shins.
0:43 that's what in gonna say when I die
I really want to learn that slow down heart rate trick 😂
No joke Cotton shouldn't be alive. According to the monitor, his blood pressure is 62/45 and his heart is only beating 47 times a minute.
"My mother died sleeping in her apartment. That's right, Hank. I birthed myself. Tore myself right outta her uteri!"
"No more stories, dad."
NO! I WANNA HEAR MORE! WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THAT?! WHERE WAS HIS DAD?! DID HE SECRETLY RESENT COTTON, BLAMING HIM FOR HIS WIFE'S SUDDEN DEATH?! IS THAT WHY HE GREW UP TO BE A TOTAL HARDASS?! DONT LEAVE US HANGING!
Nobody giving Peggy credit for straight up saying to Cotton what Hank should have. She didn't air her problems with Cotton because she deemed Hank more important. She defended Hank to the bitter end with Cotton and still put Hank first. Peggy does many bad things, but she loves who she loves and refuses to see harm befall them.
He should’ve said “Bobby loves you”
Aside from Hank he’s the best character in the show!
0:53 “BOY ARE YOU GETTING ALL THIS”
Man, Hank really misses his Father because Cotton's gonna Die.
Lost my father 6 month ago, and this had to pop out...
Hilarious that they put Cotton in Room 237 from The Shining.
"I successfully burned all my bridges, nobody loves me, and I love nobody." And "I wanna die alone." LOL, I love that. That's how I'm doing it too.😂
*Cotton* '¿¡You loves me!?'
Even in the hospital, Cotton is the Cynical @$$#0*£ we all know and Love: hate him or love him: That is Why we love Cotton - We miss you KOTH
bro surpassed death 💀💀
Cotton is the quintessential antithesis of closure.
For Hank, at least.
As he is, as a person, the absolute punnacle of closure! He burned all his bridges. He ain't got no business unresolved. Hank could take notes.
Seriously Cotton, kinda messed up but that's why a lot of us love him, when I die I don't want to be buried or cremated, I want a viking funeral like Stoick the Vast.
*Hank:* "So, he's gonna make it?"
*Doctor:* "Absolutely not. Uh, technically I don't know how he was revived or how on earth he's talking to us now."
*Me:* "Sounds like that doctor doesn't believe in miracles!"
Hank should’ve said Bobby cotton probably would’ve kept living a little longer for Bobby 😂
Cotton was in room "237" from "The Shining."
Hank was a good son.
And Cotton was a bad father!
1:46 ...yeah, this line bothers me a bit. What about Bobby? Why couldn't they be brave and let Bobby see his grandfather for the last time? They had pretty good chemistry together.
I don't know how he got to be vice president.
I think he’s trying to get Hank to say that he loves him in his own twisted way
I love Cotton.
Cotton was such an asshole, but also one of the funniest characters on the show.
Tavros as Hank,
Kanaya as Peggy,
John as Bobby,
Eridan as Cotton,
Vriska as Luanne,
Gamzee as Bill,
Equius as Dale,
Sollux as Joseph,
Nepeta as Connie.
RIP Cotton Hill 😭😭😭
Despite being a cartoon animation king of the hill never did unrealistic carttoonish stuff, like famiy guy. Maybe thats why its aging well.
Doctor came back: "But i can tell what's your bill gonna beeee!" 😏
I don't know how, he keeps surprising me and wow! I think he would have made a better one man army dude.
Cotton didnt deserve such a good son.
i wish this is as good i can say good bye to my dad. I wish my dad was as emotionally available as cotton
Cotton being the most relatable character:
This episode was hard to watch for me, I hated how Cotton treated Hank in this episode. Hank loves his dad, it shows, but because of how Cotton was raised and grew up he won't show Hank any sign of vocal love, always putting up this defense.
It's hilarious, bit so sad at the same time
Hank didn't deserve cotton as a father and you cant change my mind
The man is literally on his death bed and his son still doesn’t want to talk about post-death planning. Definitely a parody of how many people are so afraid to approach the topic
Daaaamn that thing he suggested to the Japanese.
“I killed fitty men.”
I hated this episode. They threw away all of the character development with Cotton. We see him being a jerk with the car, but he was nice with Hank before that. The episode with the timeshare is where they left off.
exactly
I dont even know who this Cotton is.
Plus he respected Hank's Wife especially after helping her rehabilitate. They could have left off by making hank the man that Cotton wanted (less uptight) then ended off with, Cotton being proud like in the la granta episode.
Hanks not even allowed to grieve, brutal
Bro couldn’t take his son yapping and decided to die for a few sec 💀
All this dyin gots me to thinkin. I mights not live forever.
cotton is my role model
That Doctor is so non-plus.
Cotton never stopped trying to toughen hank up tbh.
they did cotton wrong as cotton and hank made up on several occassions in the show. why the heck would they let cotton end on a bad note like this.
Poor kid , cotton must have had severe ptsd and taken it out of poor little hank . That’s why he’s always bitter , never treated himself
hank could have mentioned Bobby, GH and Deedee when he asked who loved him
"TORE M'SELF RIGHT OUTTA HER UTERY!" Now that is fucking good comedy
How tf cotton got me tearin up
I like how hes in room 237 like in the shining
1:43 so he doesn’t love Bobby, G.H, Didi, Dusty or even (deep down) Hank? How can he say that
cuz this episode kinda butchered cotton's character development. KotH doesn't exactly follow continuity.
He has dementia, and he doesn't want anyone to cry for his passing as part of his character.
Then biggest mistake of the show was killing him off, they'll miss him in the new show
Not sure what kept him alive, his stubborn body, or that steel hard attitude that never flinched at anything, and yes what he said about beating death and seeing his enemies was probably all true 😂😂
Cotton: I also saw the fiddy men I killed. Their up there waiting for me and their angry. But I also saw my shins they look good.
Anyone else thinks this ending was kinda too much for his character considering that he seemed to have really loved and cared about his second son and his grandson?
I mean make up your mind, do you want him to be a bad man or not?
He said the 50 men he killed were angry at him I don't think it's possible for spirits to be angry with you on the other side. I mean people in church say that when you die you have no more anger, hate, and not a worry in the world
.....
Cotton mistook hell for heaven...
he went to hell... 😅
He was a ww2 veteran and the 50 men he killed were Japanese.
... oh a history lesson
Japanese were part of the axis power, meaning that they have sided with Adolf Hitler.
i saw the grim reaper..... so i kicked him in the stones and spit in his eye and said im not going yet
Room 237 lol
I don't get it
@@TheAllSeeingEye2468 reference to The Shining, a movie by Stanley Kubrick, based on the book by Stephen King. Although I think it was only Room 237 in the movie.
Room 731 would also have worked here, given Cotton’s supposed history.
He died how he loved: Like an asshole but also a badass. That makes sense, don't it? XD
Can someone please upload the best clip of this episode.
Lucky and Luanne want to watch Bobby for a few days while Hank is struggling with the situation. They don’t know what to tell Bobby so lucky goes, “I got this baby girl”
He goes to Bobby and says “Bobby, there’s a crazy man going around killing kids in your neighborhood and if you stay here you’ll be in grave danger”
He looks back and winks at Luanne and Bobby looks terrified.
That shit was hilarious someone post that clip
