If he didn’t skip work for 15 years, he’d be in prison for a crime he didn’t commit by the fraud of his own job.

​@eyeseer1 yeah but its Lois we're talking about! Hal was pretty much screwed no matter what route was taken because she was going to note in essence that yes it saved them from going to prison and woke her out of her catatonic state but she only got woken up because of pure Fury towards him😂 I always found it funny because Lois is a lot similar to my mother and that even if you prove your innocence if it was in the process of doing something else she would dislike congratulations you saved yourself just to now have her mad at you for a legit reason now😅 these types are the types you never win against the only way you win is surviving their Wrath😊

@@eyeseer1 If he didn't skip work, he may be viewed as a better employee and they might've looked for someone less loyal to be the scapegoat. That and Hal would be richer.

apparently telling the obvious is interesting....you should REALLY get out more

Lets hope so

@@ravinraven6913not really, they never bring it up

Context? I don't understand

@@junaugust2705 In this episode, Hall was falsely accused at being at the center of a giant corporal conspiracy. And his company had all of these witnesses come forward to testify against him. But now! his son just proved him innocent. Which means all of those people are going to go to jail now for lying under oath.

Not guilty is used because it wasn't sufficiently proven that the defendant is guilty. They could still be guilty, so they're not innocent.

In fact prior to Malcolm figuring out the Friday loophole, when they were on verge of losing the case , the lawyer pretends to sleep in the court to get Hal an appeal later. First few times I thought he was really snoozing off.Indeed a good lawyer

If it hadn't been for Malcolm convincing Hal to take the stand, the family would've been worse off. Lois would've still been broken and sent away to an assisted living facility. Dewey and Jamie would live in New Mexico with Francis and Piama. Malcolm would be emancipated, but would still live with his guilt over breaking up his family and worried about Reese's fate. To him, it's better to deal with an angry Lois than a broken family.

Couples often have joint accounts and individual accounts or a threshold where each can spend without checking with the other. Many of the things he did on his days off weren't that costly. And if he takes out cash once a week for his walking around money the individual expenses don't show up on the monthly bank statements. They wouldn't be individual transactions but one or two with drawls and cash payments.

Yes, it really is just a matter of determining if the prosecutor has made their case and convinced the jury. A not guilty verdict doesn't mean they think you are innocent. Hence they never looked for the real killers when O.J. wasn't convicted in criminal court.

She was extremely pissed at Hal for what he did.

Here she's justified. Why doesn't Lois gets a free day too? Comedy, but not fair at all. Hal is just another child.

Well ofc, they're both partners and half got to blow off fridays while lois had to get extra shifts, work overtime and even graveyard shift as we see later, shes 100% justified

He could have gotten a season pass so he got in free so as long as he brought his lunch he could have reasonably gone to the park every friday and it not cost anything outside of his yearly season pass.

this is definitely the place to find out who is some of the worst and most uncreative people on the planet....you used to be a baby, can I make a baby reference about you? or would that be stupid as you're no longer a baby....

No, that was in the X-Files

And if the work that has been assigned was completed to their satisfaction in four days why should they care how many days he sat in the cubicle?

Clearly the family didn't have enough income to live a very good quality of life. Lois (I don't know who Louis is) didn't make extra. She made less. And yes society still thinks that a woman's income doesn't need to be equal to a man's. We expect them to do shitty low paying work.

@@seanwebb605 keep your rubbish to yourself. Have no idea why you're bringing wage gap into this. Which isn't statistically a fact when assessing same skill sets, education, etc. Economists provided a number as discussion point and u take it as gospel. I U obviously missed the point of the comment. She was acting unhinged, by the fact that hal didn't go to work. That would be a problem if he didn't get paid. But he did.

@@seanwebb605 Man how brain dead are you? Lois worked at a grocery store, of course she wouldnt make as much as Hal and it has nothing to do with her gender.

The pay was definitely nice, but every week for 18 years Hal got to escape all of the domestic worries and responsibilities. Least of all, he didn't invite Lois to join him.

@@kamman1374 are you stupid? are you dense? are you misognistic? yes to all. Imagine barely living having to feed 6 mouths and you have to besides WORK clean the mess of 3 of those monsters and then clean the house, cook, wash, and your partenr who barely does anything in the house NEVER WORKED a friday? And used it to SPEND money? You are sincerely mentally challegened. Yay.

a day.....do you know how many fridays are in 15 years....52 in one year. 520 in 10 years, 746 in 15 years.... ITS NOT A DAY TO HIMSELF YOU TWIT. hes taken off 2 years off not consecutively without telling his wife. You don't blame him for being a piece of chit? Shes working double shifts trying to make enough money. If that is the type of guy you are, you should be prevented from having kids ACTIVELY and never marry either. Only person you will get is some fat idiot who knows they can't get better but neither can you

After Malcolm got rejected from the Ivy Leagues due to diversity quotas, he took his chemistry set and he and Hal broke bad. Breaking Malcolm, this fall on AMC.

Indeed failed opportunity for a funny clip.

It kind of did

Also, did he get paid regardless? Because some places will just assume you're there and only halt/dock wages if a sick call comes in. 🤔

Whats wrong with 4 day 10 hrs? Just better

6 16

Based.

@@atranimecs Hell no. 8 hrs a day is already pushing it, nevermind 9 hrs (standard in Romania and the UK, though 1 hour is unpaid lunch break). I hardly need tell you what that does to motivation and spirit, particularly in a pointless office job, where you just move crap from one pile to another. After 4-5 hrs, people slowly start to faff around or go on extra coffee/ciggie breaks .... as a desperate attempt to break up the remaining 4-5 hrs into palatable pieces. In one job I had, it became so bad that I'd eat a sandwich or two at my desk (while technically working) and instead use the lunch hour for chugging beer in a discreet sunny spot somewhere. My personal best was 4 beers in 45 mins (I needed time to get to said spot and back to the office). That's when I realised that I needed to get out of that pointless soul-sucking job. 😱😣😓

Lois would’ve shouted down Tuco and made him apologize

​@@littlekingtrashmouth9219Lois would have taken down the entire cartel and Gus just by yelling at them.

He's the Skyler of this marriage 😂

Amazing how men being in relationships with wives who scream/shout at them is seen as funny and cute. Reverse the genders and its abuse Imagine that comment about a woman. "Shed never step out of line if Y was her husband". Sounds like am abuse scenario no?

The SNL episode with the two of them was freaking hilarious.

You can't be said to have skipped out of work on Fridays if you didn't show up.

that saying imo is stupid af. rent free....its a memory and not one that is very important to life. You got some terrible priorities.

@@ravinraven6913 It's a way to emphasize that it's something that randomly pops into your mind every now and then. With your poor approach to humor, I deduce you must be a fellow German.

​@h.a.9880 I bet he was thinking I should've gone to jail
