As he gears up with Donny and The Dude for their big tournament, they play a match against a rival team member named Smokey, who throws the ball with his foot over the line, sending Walter into a full-blown melt...
The Dude doesn't often get upset, but when he does, it's over the rug that "really tied the room together,"which was defiled by the nihilists who broke into his place looking to cause harm to the real Lebowski. He adopts this phrase as his mantra, with "the rug" representing all of his happiness and all of his sorrow, almost like a metaphor for lif...
It's surprising that The Dude can spend so much time around two friends who argue as constantly as Donny and Walter, particularly since every time Donny contributes to a conversation, Walter yells at him, "Shut the f*** up, Donny!"

It's all fun and games until the Big Lebowski receives his wife's pinky toe in the mail and The Dude starts to take her kidnapping seriously.

You don't ...
