- Yeah?
- Yeah.
- Well, why don't you drive?
- No!
- I don't believe you. You crazy.
- Didn't think so.

"bleurgh" ou quelque chose comme ça
d'après le reste de la phrase, je le comprends comme une onomatopée représentant le vomissement, puisqu'elle commence à se sentir mal dans la voiture....peut çetre que lq transcription "earl" est approximative?
En tous cas je ne vois pas ce que le pauvre Earl viendrait faire dans cette histoire....
