Home Improvement is the ninth episode in Season 2 of Beavis and Butt-Head. It is the overall 15th episode.

Plot

Beavis and Butt-Head are hired to paint the trim of Mr. Anderson's house, but huffing a can of Johns Blair-brand paint thinner causes them to take a more creative - and destructive - approach. They only end up painting graffiti and various other doodles all over the home, painting Anderson's cat's butt and setting his bushes on fire. Then to add insult to injury, they steal his riding lawnmower and take it on a joyride through Highland, causing even more mayhem after they mistake the local botanical gardens for Stewart's living room in their intoxicated state. They also cause a severe traffic jam.


Anderson promptly calls the police on them over it, but cannot remember the duo's actual names or descriptions, due to his poor eyesight and partial senility. He tells the officers that respond to his call: "One of them calls himself Butthole. The other one's name is Joe, I think. I believe they were oriental."
