reply

I am not sure, it never crossed my mind... i have a question, when stoney and the mexican guys where drinking at the club, what did they tell, it went something like this.... "you drink like a ... " does anyone know what that line was...

reply

i think it was something like ' if you want to be a man esse (i dont know how you spell that!) you have to drink like a fish'...and thats when Stoney replies he's a unique weasel

reply

"Drink like an hombre!" (It means, "man," in Spanish)

reply

because of stolen de car

reply

actually they were charged for reckless driving (2 wheels), drivers ED teacher left the keys in the ignition. They had a flat tire thats why they did not go back to school.

reply

i thought they were arrested because they were under age..i dont know why the bar was raided maybe drugs, or illegal aliens?

reply

Isn't it because they stole the drivers ed car?



Does the term "cruel and unusual punishment" mean anything to you?

reply

yeah it is because they stole the car and i guess since they were in the bar it probably did not help any.

When the cops raided the bar, you see one black guy yell out, "Police! Imigracion!" And that's when everyone ran. So yeah, it was probably because of illegal aliens in the bar.

reply

plus they are under age in a pub....so thats why they got arrested.

reply

lol i think the man behind the bar who shouted looks like bob marley ! i laugh when it shows him

reply

Actually, link wasn't under age, since he was a caveman, frozen for a million years. I guess to cops wouldn't know that!

reply

the cheese is old and moldy

where is the bathroom?

reply

You're right, esse. She ain't worth it!

Yea, the vato's got a point!

Yo, she ain't worth it, homes!!!

reply

You wouldn't arrest underage idiots in a bar. Worst case they'd get kicked out

reply

In California they'd be arrested — as would the bartender who served them.

reply

the cops are seen questioning the driver's ed instructor about the stolen car, and getting the license plate. they then find the car parked outside the bar and come in to apprehend the two suspects (link and dave)

reply

It's encino man I try not to apply any logic to it.

reply

Well said. Reading too much into Encino Man is crazy.

the jamaican guy at the bar was like "police, immigration" and there were some mexicans there. and the kids where cutting class and drinking underage i'm pretty sure that was it =\

reply

I don't think the cops were raiding the bar as much as they were just looking for link, robyn, dave, and stoney. The dudes just got scared cus pigs rolled in.

reply

I always figured that they tracked the stolen Student Driver car to the bar.
