Patrick Swayze (imposter) also known as Legless drifter. Although never given his actual name, he is simply referred to as "Patrick Swayze". Swayze pretended to be, the now deceased, real life actor Patrick Swayze.
Description[]
He preformed this act of identity theft in order to receive gifts from the gullible Cuylers, most notably Early and Rusty. Helping The Sheriff remodel the local jail, "Patrick" makes several references of the movies, Patrick Swayze starred in, in as an unclever way to trick the Cuylers (who are big fans of the movie Roadhouse), as well as quoting several aspect of some movies like using the line my way, or the highway from the film Roadhouse.
However, when the real Patrick Swayze comes to town it would be apparent to almost anyone that the drifter is not Patrick Swayze, except Early, Granny, and the Sheriff (Rusty being the only one who realizes the truth). As a result, the drifter (to Rusty's horror) easily kills the real Patrick Swayze (the Sheriff in typical fashion does nothing to stop it) and is last seen as he steals a pizza delivery man's vehicle while shouting "Free Car, asshole!". However, despite all this Early still believes the man to be Patrick Swayze. In the episode "Bubba Trubba", the Legless Drifter appears in the audience of the Plumber Bubba comedy show (hinting at the possibility he has taken up residence in Dougal County possibly due to the ignorance of the local town folk).
