I had never seen this remarkable one. Tonight's repeat is unique tv in a couple of ways. Khan upstages everybody else's schtick/act in this program. His maximalist over-riding ego causes "loose lips," and therefore he's fired from classified work when Bill the barber gossips to the general about classified miraculous tank/golfing material. Khan's character development is interesting. The politically incorrect depiction of the rude Asian, plus the "treason" tag at the unemployment compensation office, the public restroom low point, the haughty Minh's come-down, the un-p.c."red neck" repetition, good neighbor Hank doing chores, Laotian language lessons, angry yard sale, and the thing ends with Khan finally quietly thanking his "best friend" Hank for acknowledging Khan's new, expensive car (?). This episode is imaginative, quite humorous, unprecedented, and superlative. "Six Stars out of Six."
