"Hot Shot Part D'uh", Way to Die #513, is the fourth death to be featured in "The One About Dumb People Dying", which aired on February 8, 2011.
Plot[]
Charlie and Jevetta. a bottom-feeding thieving couple, return to their hotel room after robbing luggage from an airport. Jevetta had recently stolen some jewelry and clothing, and Charlie takes pictures of her wearing the jewelry. As Jevetta goes to the bathroom to try on one of the dresses and put on make-up, Charlie finds a bottle of what he thinks is imported rum. He drinks the liquid and immediately feels what he believes is intoxication then an immense overheating, as it speeds up his heart so much that it explodes, and by the time Jevetta returns he starts convulsing and then falls on the bed, dead from a massive cardiac arrest, and sending him to hell where he belongs. Jevetta tries to wake him up, but it's no use.
What Charlie didn't know- the "rum" was in fact liquid cocaine he inadvertently stole from a drug smuggler. Charlie had drank the equivalent of 3 ounces of pure cocaine with an extra kick of kerosene mixed in.

Narrator: Charlie was a thief; he wound up stealing from a drug dealer. But what happened to him wasn't exactly criminal; it was just a really nasty way to die. Sorry, Charlie.

Trivia[]
- Much like Hard Balled, this death occurs on April 2, 2006.
- Charlie drank 3 ounces of pure cocaine with an extra kick of kerosene mixed in. The kerosene drinking moment is similar to the Family Guy episode "New Kidney in Town" (which was aired exactly a month before this episode), which Peter Griffin drank a homemade Red Bull which was made from kerosene. Unlike Charlie, he survived.
- In the CGI, Charlie's heart literally exploded. Making it one of 3 deaths where someone's heart explodes, the others are Slayer Cake and Dead on Arrival.
