Why is Sally May always mad at Hank?
JE: Hank’s lousy relationship with Sally May has produced some of the funniest scenes in the Hank series, and I’ve noticed that adults understand it better than kids. Sally May is a homemaker. She tries to bring order and neatness to her yard and home, and Hank keeps blundering into her little world and making messes. She puts some steaks out to thaw and Hank eats them. She spends hours planting flowers and Hank digs them up. He barks at night and bullies her cat. And he always stinks. They are opposites and they always strike sparks, and typical of Hank, he never figures it out.
