That's What She Said is the 10th episode in the 8th season of King of the Hill. The episode starts with Hank having troubles in the bedroom with Peggy, causing him to become insecure about his performance and masculinity. He starts trying out various methods to improve his sex life, such as buying an expensive "man pill" and doing exercises to strengthen his pelvic muscles.
Meanwhile, Bobby is selected to participate in a program called "Ambassadors in Blue" where he spends a week with police officers to learn about law enforcement. Bobby quickly becomes enamored with the police lifestyle and starts emulating it in his daily life, even going as far as wearing a police officer's uniform.
As Hank continues to struggle with his performance in the bedroom, he confides in his coworkers at Strickland Propane. Dale suggests that Hank should try incorporating dirty talk into his sex life and even offers to provide him with some phrases to use. Hank is hesitant at first but eventually gives it a try.
The second half of the episode focuses on Bobby's obsession with being a police officer. He starts patrolling the neighborhood in his uniform and even takes it upon himself to "arrest" a group of kids for littering. When the actual police show up, they initially praise Bobby for his efforts but quickly realize that he is not an actual officer. They scold him and return him home to his parents.
Back at home, Peggy confronts Hank about his newfound dirty talk in the bedroom, which he denies at first. Eventually, he admits to trying it out but admits that it made him feel uncomfortable. Peggy reassures Hank that she loves him regardless of his performance in the bedroom and they decide to take a break from trying to improve things. The episode ends with Bobby feeling humiliated about his run-in with the police and Hank feeling relieved to have put his insecurities to rest for the time being.
Overall, That's What She Said is a humorous and relatable episode that tackles issues of insecurity and masculinity in a sensitive and lighthearted way. Fans of the series will appreciate seeing familiar characters navigate these issues and the episode is sure to provide some laughs along the way.
