Plot

Beavis and Butt-head watch a black and white TV show, where one of characters in the show ask for the hand of someone's daughter. Beavis and Butt-head do not understand that the person meant he wanted to marry her, and get the idea to ask someone for his daughter's "hand". They find a house where a girl named Victoria lives and goes up to the door to start asking her dad for her "hand", but he says that she is a few years older than them and already has a boyfriend. Beavis and Butt-head, not understanding, then proceed to ask him again and the man responds by saying that they would have to wait a long time if they want a chance with his daughter. After he ends the conversation and closes the door, the duo goes to sit on the sidewalk, thinking that the man meant they only had to wait for hours or days. Their neighbor, Tom Anderson, is close by in his yard raking leaves and is interrupted by the duo's conversation. Butt-head says that they are waiting to have Victoria's "hand" and Mr. Anderson says to them that only of them can have her "hand", thinking that she is still single and not realizing what they really mean, adding that they should just get up and get her "hand". The duo then goes back to the man's door to ask him for his daughter's "hand" yet again, but this time he says that he doesn't think she would want to date or marry either of them. After they ask him continually, the man starts to realize that they want to perform sexual activities with his daughter. Enraged, the man attacks Beavis and Butt-head. Mr. Anderson comes and tells the man to get his hand off of them. They start attacking each other after Mr. Anderson hits him on the head with his rake. During the fight, Beavis and Butt-head realizes that they have their own hands to use and don't need Victoria.

Reception

The episode was seen by 2,071,000 viewers in its initial airing.[1]

IGN says the episode is funny, but adds that "though not as out-and-out hilarious as the first short from episode one", noting that they wish the girl would turn out to be Daria.[2] The A.V. Club graded the episode a B+, commenting that "It's frankly pretty incredible that MTV lets Judge get away with this stuff" and notes that upcoming episodes should be "even more consistently uproarious".[3] CraveOnline praises the episode for its simplistic premise and commented that it is amusing to watch them trying to act like gentlemen without understanding what they were trying to do.[4]
