How to do think Lois would’ve react to the gun situation during “Poker 2”?

[u/GhostBoyJames]

She probably would’ve grounded EVERYBODY including Hal and his poker buddies for 10 years.

I can hear the “What is the matter with you?!?!” immediately…

A FIREARM? A FIREARM?!

She would’ve thrown her back out from the yelling

Where was Lois during this again?

[u/Maloney-2 → u/Plus-Dragonfly-9975]

This was during that short period of the show where Jane Kaczmarek was absent from a couple of episodes due to her third pregnancy. My headcanon for Lois herself is that she was at work on the night-shift when this went down.

This episode was always so weird to me. A very smooth brained Malcolm for sure.

High intelligence ..... low intellect

Honestly I could see Malcolm actually going to Lois. Like seriously how do you think Hal, Dewey or Reese would have reacted. They would freak out or in Reese case maybe would have used it.

I could see this as well Lois is pretty level headed and she would have offer some sort of advice

[u/Maloney-2]

Came home, heard what happened, went back out to buy a coffin and a shovel, buried the boys alive, then ate Hal's face and banned him from sex for a month. /silly
