Ep 10. Bobby Slam

Bobby Slam is the tenth episode of the second season of the animated television series King Of The Hill. The episode opens with Bobby and Connie failing to make the cut into the middle school tennis team, despite their beginner skills. Hank decides to enroll them in a self-defense class to boost their confidence, but things take a different turn when Bobby discovers a passion for wrestling instead.

Bobby becomes hooked on wrestling after watching a match on television, and convinces his parents to let him join the wrestling team at school. Despite their initial concerns, Hank and Peggy agree to support their son as he pursues his newfound passion. However, things don't go as planned when Bobby is placed in the lightweight division, where he struggles to keep up with the other, more experienced wrestlers.

Meanwhile, Peggy volunteers to teach Spanish to a group of senior citizens at the community center, but her attempts to connect with her students are hindered by an overzealous class clown, Jack. Jack and Peggy have a verbal spat that culminates in a hilarious moment involving a swear word.

As Bobby's wrestling career takes off, he starts to develop a rivalry with his teammate and friend, Connie, who is now working as the team manager. The two compete for the affection of the boys on the team, with Bobby becoming increasingly obsessed with winning. When Connie starts dating one of the wrestlers, Bobby's jealousy gets the best of him, leading to a confrontation that threatens to tear the team apart.

Meanwhile, Hank tries to support Bobby by teaching him the "propane crawl," a maneuver that he used to use for wrestling in high school. However, Bobby fails to execute it and is put in a headlock instead. In a surprising twist, Hank and Peggy are forced to intervene when the school principal decides to ban the propane crawl and other non-standard wrestling moves.

The episode ends on a high note, with Peggy making amends with Jack by teaching him a cuss word in Spanish, and Bobby finally learning to appreciate the value of team sports and sportsmanship.
