Stan unwittingly reveals that he never actually killed anyone in his life, and his work friends try to help him get his first.
Tropes:
- Asshole Victim: Subverted. Randy is introduced as an obvious choice for Stan's first kill, as he's a pedophile and a registered sex offender. Oh, and he also kills cats. He even boasts to Stan that he has a great lawyer and his mom is rich, so he'll face no jail time for attempting to molest Steve and his friends. Stan then goes to shoot him...only to completely miss and hit Bad Larry instead. The last we see of Randy is him being arrested.
- Bait-and-Switch: Bad Larry describes in detail how he killed his partner, who was a double-agent for the East Germans, by sticking his thumb in his eye socket and popping his eye out, then carefully turning it around so he could watch himself die. Roger seems to be freaked out by this, only to then complain about his worthless poker hand.
- Blatant Lies: Stan returns one night to find Francine ready to have sex with him for having his first kill. When he says he didn't kill anyone, she runs through every excuse she can think of from having a headache to an early meeting.
- Brick Joke: During their poker game, Ray talks about how he remembers what he ate after his first kill: an egg salad sandwich that was too much, so he only ate half. After Stan kills Bad Larry, he gives him a corn dog, saying it's not much but he'll never forget it.
- Damned by Faint Praise: Bad Larry, Ray, and Roger try to help Stan kill his first by finding people who absolutely have no desire to live. One of them is Mark Reisman, the creator of Quintuplets. However, Stan refuses to kill him because he liked one of the episodes, which everyone groans at because of how terrible the show was.
- Hidden Depths: Roger fought for the Viet Cong in the 60s.
- Pop-Cultural Osmosis Failure: Bad Larry's last words are that he shall "become more powerful than [they] can possibly imagine." Neither Stan nor Roger get the reference.
- Retcon: Stan claims to have never killed anyone before, even though he had, by this point in the show, already killed many people, intentionally or accidentally.
- Whole-Plot Reference: To The 40-Year-Old Virgin.
