Changes: Ball Breakers

Revision as of 00:07, 3 September 2014

Ball Breakers is the 19th episode in Season 3 of Beavis and Butt-Head. It is the overall 50th episode.

Plot

The duo take to bowling as their latest activity, however, end up stealing Tom Anderson's bowling ball, blowing it up and dropping it from the roof of the building onto the street to prove the rumor that serial killers make bowling balls and that they hide their victim's body parts in them. As they blow it up, Beavis claims his rumor fact, that they hold a core of plutonium inside of them. While the duo were in the blast, having walked up to it after dropping it, Butthead only lost a few teeth, with Beavis receiving a piece of shrapnel to the groin, which the police examined after extracting it from his crotch. This caused Tom Anderson to be arrested and known as the "Bowling Bomber".

Censorship

This episode was banned after an 18-year-old named Calvin Settle dropped a bowling ball from the top section of the New Jersey Route 139 superhighway, killing an 8 month old girl named Natalia Rivera. Morality in Media, a media watchdog group similar to the Parents Television Council, tried to connect the incident with this episode. However, it's not proven that the episode and the incident were connected.

Trivia

Never released on any home video.
This is last episode to have Butt-Head's deep before he had the more lipsy voice.
Though Mr. Anderson states that he is to get a "tall cold one", meaning a glass bottled chilled beer, he instead gets a can.
