Who Did Brendan Fraser Voice On King Of The Hill? – Looper

In the episode “Peggy Makes The Big Leagues,” David “The Flyin’ Hawaiian” Kalaiki-Ali’i is Arlen High School’s star fullback. He has led his team to a winning season, and because of this, the school chooses to pass him despite his terrible grades. However, that changes after Peggy becomes his substitute teacher and later tries her hand at tutoring him. Unsurprisingly, this doesn’t go well, and she flunks him. As a result, Hank, a member of the football boosters, is forced to take on David at Strickland Propane through a unique internship. That only leads to a hilariously disastrous essay from David, capped off with “…I thank God every day that I get home that I didn’t get exploded.” Hank, filled with regret and shots of Alamo beer, still passes David.

“Peggy Makes It Big” is an episode clearly about moving the goalposts when it comes to personal integrity. The town of Arlen knows David is a poor student but will turn a blind eye as long as he gets to play on the team. Fortunately, by the episode’s conclusion, David does show that he wants to learn properly after figuring out he only gets by because the town doesn’t care about his grades. In the end, he does actually learn a few things about propane, thanks to Hank and Peggy. David didn’t appear again after this episode, but the same can’t be said of Fraser.
