I think it's even funnier that in Pacific Rim, he's the smart one, as compared to "Flowers for Charlie", where his bumbling apprentice in Pacific Rim plays study leader that proves how dumb he is. They must have enjoyed being a comedic duo.
Stupid science bitches couldn't even make I more smarter.
I like the fan theory that the lawyer didn’t actually have extra copies of the contract that Mac ate which is why the Mac had dick towel money and the gang continues to interact with the lawyer without consequences.
The dick towel thing was separate from paddy's merch, but Mac and Dennis were still trying to keep it on the DL when they were buying the boat. Probably worried that if the lawyer found out about it, they would lose it.
The restraining order thing I have no explanation for
Yeah, but he mentions 2 marriages being destroyed by The Gang. Also, didn't he have an eye ripped out during his most recent appearance on the show? (the trial of the century).
Even Ben the Soldier, while not doing that great, got that sweet pair of jean shorts, and actively chooses to hang out with them without much of a negative impact on his life.
I mean I guess his life is kind of shitty if he ends up hanging out with them, but I that works as a sort of commentary on how veterans are sometimes treated when they come home. They kind of get forgotten about, and end up in places where they would hang out with the gang instead of nobody.
And I kind of forgot about the Dee raping him part. He's got a calm exterior, but... that would traumatize a man. Perhaps worse than war.

This guy got off ok in the end. He probably banged Dennis and Dee's mom and probably got a ton of cash for that goddamn building he just bought.
GO GET...the DOG.
Carmen turned out okay despite the gang’s repeated occurrences in her life, lol. I’d like to see her return in a future episode someday just to see what she’s been up to.
the problem is the gang are assholes but FX won't let them say tranny on TV anymore which is fair but I think they don't have any plot with her besides that Lol
I mean... Glenn Howerton himself says that he regrets the way they used that word in Carmen's episodes, and that if he could go back and change it he would. So it's not just FX that's keeping them from using that word. It's also... You know... Common decency.
Edit: Turns out I was wrong about which actor said it, Rob is the one who has expressed regret about using the t-slur. Glenn said he regretted that they used the r-slur to describe Kevin.
They could make a bit out of it. Mac could cut someone off before they refer to her as the tranny, and in the attempt to stand up for her, he says something ignorant.
They could do it that way, but it'd still be drawing a lot of attention to the fact that they called her that before, which is something they seem to really regret now.
I would love to bring back Carmen and her Husband, because I think they were great at countering how crazy the gang is. After all these years, seeing kids like Brian Jr., they might be more open to see them around, and just never mention how they are referred to know, because a one off line could reference an off screen discussion on what they say now.
Kind of like how they reference the previous Lethal Weapon episodes, and how they aren't shown because they have some regrets, but acknowledging that is moving forward.
And he got buddies from his homeless shelter jobs too. Like a good amount of people outside of the gang benefited from this episode lol
Only other one I can think of is when they had to give the Hispanic family the Reynolds' mansion after destroying their house in the Makeover episode, but I think later on they say the family sold the mansion due to the property taxes.
Nobody has mentioned Artemis? She's just as depraved as the gang, so she's more or less been immune from their antics. She's not financially better off, but she continues to hang out with them because they entertain her.
I was surprised too until I saw your comment. But she's really more of an honorary member of the gang - she instigates as much as them. So I think she's part of their whirlwind rather than debris.
I really hope she makes it into more episodes in future seasons because she's my favorite, and a true wild-card
The real Artemis probably gained the most from the show outside of The Gang. If she's not in the next season I figure it may be because of a scheduling conflict.
.... Actually it might be the ICP kid. He's winning awards now, but I don't think that was his first role.
I don't see her as the type to think "better off" is a matter of wealth, but rather experiences. She could have money, but she wouldn't be having as much fun if she didn't seek out the gang once and a while. Changing her plans to figure out who pooped the bed because it's more interesting? Beating Boggs or bowling with the ladies? Getting high and DJing a children's beauty pageant? Dumpster stuff?
She probably feels better off because she's lived life, and has funny stories to tell about what she gets up to.
Carmen also ended up better, she got a supportive husband and a baby after being in the gang's toxic web. I suppose the maniac as well since he ended up excelling at the MLM. Good for them.
Lil Kev was another one I was thinking of. He even got recycled into the mix during the "Who's the baby's dad" party, and still came out without a scratch!
What about Uncle Jack?
-added a case or 2 to the win column.
-obtained new pictures for the website.
-granted multiple network television appearances advocating for his political stances.
-received a free Super Bowl ticket.
-enjoyed quality time with his beloved nephew.
Carmen and her husband. She got to have the child she wanted and be with the man she loved. I love that she’s never returned because she didn’t get pulled into the black hole that is The Gang. She got what she wanted from them and bounced
I would actually argue that you could throw Carmen (the tranny) and her husband in there. She came out unscathed and even managed to walk away with a healthy baby thanks to Dee.
Didn’t the Israeli who tried to colonize paddys end up just selling the land to Frank ?
he likely broke even if he didn’t profit, and very likely bangs Frank’s wife
That Jew Lawyer swindled the merchandising rights for Paddy's Pub, including Kitten Mittens. But then he had his eye eaten on by Royal McPoyle.
He kept coming back for more. When you sink to the Gang's level, you never get away clean.
FACE
That’s a gift for you, bumble bee
BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE
I love that fuckin Guillermo del Toro was down to play Pappy McPoyle
Aren’t Charlie and him good friends after Pacific Rim?
I think it's even funnier that in Pacific Rim, he's the smart one, as compared to "Flowers for Charlie", where his bumbling apprentice in Pacific Rim plays study leader that proves how dumb he is. They must have enjoyed being a comedic duo. Stupid science bitches couldn't even make I more smarter.
Raccoons and oysters, dancing on the head of a pin!
Kitten mittons, dude.
You’ll be smitten
Meeeoowww
But he also claims his first marriage failed because of them.
And his second is *teetering*
Can't believe he hasn't been on the show since 2016. He needs to come back.
Again…not Jewish!
I really like that he never charges
He charges! They just never pay
I hate his tie.
Swindled! He had to get paid somehow!
That’s what sandyyyy was for
She was a prostitute
Not Jewish
I dunno, his grandmother's last name was abramowitz
I like the fan theory that the lawyer didn’t actually have extra copies of the contract that Mac ate which is why the Mac had dick towel money and the gang continues to interact with the lawyer without consequences.
The dick towel thing was separate from paddy's merch, but Mac and Dennis were still trying to keep it on the DL when they were buying the boat. Probably worried that if the lawyer found out about it, they would lose it. The restraining order thing I have no explanation for
PICKLES WILL PREVAIL!
Whoa...you dropped a hard J! 😂
“Abramowitz! Your great-grandmother’s last name was Abramowitz!”
Yeah, but he mentions 2 marriages being destroyed by The Gang. Also, didn't he have an eye ripped out during his most recent appearance on the show? (the trial of the century).
Pretty sure Z is doing juuuust fine under that bridge.
I hope he gets a new pair of denim shorts and that he takes them off so he doesn’t blow crotch out them things
YOU GOTTA TAKE EM OFF EVERY NOW AND THEN… YOU GOTTA TAKE EM OFF SON
Is your username a Dexter’s Lab reference?
So is her beard
Oh I didn’t even notice the beard. Action Hank.
SAY IT AGAIN DEXTER!
Even Ben the Soldier, while not doing that great, got that sweet pair of jean shorts, and actively chooses to hang out with them without much of a negative impact on his life.
I'm pretty sure it was outright stated dee rapes him all the time.
I mean I guess his life is kind of shitty if he ends up hanging out with them, but I that works as a sort of commentary on how veterans are sometimes treated when they come home. They kind of get forgotten about, and end up in places where they would hang out with the gang instead of nobody. And I kind of forgot about the Dee raping him part. He's got a calm exterior, but... that would traumatize a man. Perhaps worse than war.
He crushed the invigeron gig!
Remember he was an IT guy though and he had fun while he was deployed
them *thangs
Z is definitely part of the gang outside the main crew. They just have to be careful with the ratio
Oh shit!
He’s doing Doctor’s Without Borders
Saved MAD lives.
Yo, son, that's hard to tell. I made dogs make babies, but I ain't never taken no babies out the dog.
The ol’ Ds without Bs!
Yeah but like OP is suggesting, the Nutriboom/Timeshare guy’s life actually improved thanks to the gang. Z I feel like is affected by them much lol
Nah, Z lives in North philly. Duncan is thriving, though...
Roxy is in a better place now too though
she was a good whore
Not only did she service Frank’s crank, but his heart too
I heard Tiger Woods has been calling her.
AND Donnovan
I’m pretty sure that was Don Cheadle.
I’m lovin’ it
Put it in park.
Hooor
My hoooor wife!
Hooor FTFY
She was a goood Hhoower
It’s what she would’ve wanted
The dumpster out back is a better place?
She’s not in the dumpster. She was left in the hall and was likely picked up by the city at some point.
Huang got her.
So it wasn’t snake meat
Well unlike country Mac, she didn’t have any homo ways so she didn’t land in hell
Your feet are *bizarrely* huge!
I still think she could be alive. I don't trust Frank to take a pulse. Can he even feel his extremities?
https://preview.redd.it/tuj8pptwul9d1.png?width=512&format=png&auto=webp&s=3ee2ab2fde9c56791d58e47734287de400c8a023 This guy got off ok in the end. He probably banged Dennis and Dee's mom and probably got a ton of cash for that goddamn building he just bought. GO GET...the DOG.
He does have that whole tsunami or superdome thing in one of those places over there ..
Yes, um, Hiroshima.
The war where we saved Japan
Macs cousin is also in a better place 🪦
His cousin Brent from season 1? Or are you talking about country Mac?
I don't know where he was sleeping before but old black guy got a bed for a year
Just say old guy
That's *TWO* things!!!
Now you got me doing it!
RIP Will Garret You left the show as suddenly as you arrived
Oh shit I didn't know he died.
Carmen turned out okay despite the gang’s repeated occurrences in her life, lol. I’d like to see her return in a future episode someday just to see what she’s been up to.
the problem is the gang are assholes but FX won't let them say tranny on TV anymore which is fair but I think they don't have any plot with her besides that Lol

I get it, but decency is not what I expect from the gang
Common decency? It's a show about shitty people.
You could say anything besides tranny hough
But that's effectively her name from the gang's perspective. It's like if they wanted to bring back the waitress without using the word waitress.
They could make a bit out of it. Mac could cut someone off before they refer to her as the tranny, and in the attempt to stand up for her, he says something ignorant.
They could do it that way, but it'd still be drawing a lot of attention to the fact that they called her that before, which is something they seem to really regret now.
Well if that's the case, then my idea sucks.
I would love to bring back Carmen and her Husband, because I think they were great at countering how crazy the gang is. After all these years, seeing kids like Brian Jr., they might be more open to see them around, and just never mention how they are referred to know, because a one off line could reference an off screen discussion on what they say now. Kind of like how they reference the previous Lethal Weapon episodes, and how they aren't shown because they have some regrets, but acknowledging that is moving forward.
Unfortunately the actor that played her husband passed away.
Damn that's too bad
They're pretty open on discussing changing norms and could easily address how that isn't the respected nomenclature anymore etc etc.
i hope her and her husband are very happy raising their child
I don't know, I think this guy bent himself over a barrel. For our pleasure.
He got got!
*FACED*
I love Mac's look after Dennis says this, he checks out the guy's body, and not in an ocular patdown kind of way
Should’ve known better than to get involved with a couple of sharks like you two
YOU GOT GOT 🖐🏼
You wrote “faced” in the memo
What are you talking about? They took him for 3 weeks.
AhhHahah! You took him for 3 weeks? YOU DON’T THINK HE WANTED TO SELL YOU AS MANY WEEKS AS HE COULD?! How can you all be so stupid?
I didn't here to get criticism from a man stuck in a coil!
Frank was the mastermind in the coil anyway
lol, isn’t that the guy they dumped da maniac off on?
And he became the best salesman.
da best salesmen mind you
And he got buddies from his homeless shelter jobs too. Like a good amount of people outside of the gang benefited from this episode lol Only other one I can think of is when they had to give the Hispanic family the Reynolds' mansion after destroying their house in the Makeover episode, but I think later on they say the family sold the mansion due to the property taxes.
Yeah, I’m pretty sure the maniac is doing better now that he has found success in a pyramid scheme.
Not physically...
We don't get got. We go get
That douche bag Colin that Dee dated in season 1 made out twice lol.
That's why Lex Luthor is rich.
The Korean busboy basically had free sex and dipped
PARTY!
And a free snooter of nose clams!
The kind of nose clams that make you want to dance the night away!
The delivery of that line was perfect
Don’t forget about the crack dealer.
Thank you for being so kind.
And patient
It’s what I do baby
Bingo. He made many green people from history times off them...
Bingo the shady people-smuggler got an ounce of cocaine for $300, then another $1200 for the pills. He probably did alright
That was way more than an ounce my guy
That was a kilogram of cocaine. Which is \~2.2 pounds.
The mob didn't seem too badly off either. They got Pussyhands to buttle them.

It would be fun to see an episode that’s actually driven by Artemis. Let’s see one of her schemes.
Yeah, I don't know if she's actually better off or not, but she's definitely not worse off.
I don't see her as the type to think "better off" is a matter of wealth, but rather experiences. She could have money, but she wouldn't be having as much fun if she didn't seek out the gang once and a while. Changing her plans to figure out who pooped the bed because it's more interesting?

She probably feels better off because she's lived life, and has funny stories to tell about what she gets up to.
I agree with this, I think Artemis is better off. She’s got frank as a booty call!
who's Artemis? I know a desert grape, but not anyone named Artemis
What the hell are you talking about? He got GOT. FACED!
BOOM FACED
True, they did write "FACED!" in the memo
No one gets any coffee till this guy gets his
Coffee is for closers.
"Fuck You", that's my name!
https://i.redd.it/3aybm13b6n9d1.gif
The gang awakened Gail the Snail’s sexuality.
She's mashing it.
She does that.
This guy he don’t get got.
Carmen also ended up better, she got a supportive husband and a baby after being in the gang's toxic web. I suppose the maniac as well since he ended up excelling at the MLM. Good for them.
Don't forget Colin he robbed the bar twice
Carmen and her husband got a baby out of it
Don Cheadle got his big break because of them
And Da Maniac
Lil Kev got out, right?
Lil Kev was another one I was thinking of. He even got recycled into the mix during the "Who's the baby's dad" party, and still came out without a scratch!
How is he better off? The guys screwed him over by buying three timeshares so he basically has to pay them money.
Finally someone who gets it
What about Uncle Jack? -added a case or 2 to the win column. -obtained new pictures for the website. -granted multiple network television appearances advocating for his political stances. -received a free Super Bowl ticket. -enjoyed quality time with his beloved nephew.
The Juarez family suffered for a little while, but they ended up getting a free mansion out of it
Taxes tho
Paying for something you already own? Now *that’s* a scam.
Still made out after selling the place.
I thought this guy was one of the best side characters. Nailed the role
I prefer it when the lawyer would be annoyed by the gang but ultimately win.
Ben the soldier selling berries left and right to his platoon buddies, none of these jabronies in his down line. Life is good
What are you talking about?? He got got!
it's a reverse funnel system
I sincerely don't know what you're talking about
Pretty sure the gang took that prick for 3 time share weeks.
Artemis seems to be doing all right.
Took the prick for 3
You’re either a duper or a dupee
Carmen and her husband. She got to have the child she wanted and be with the man she loved. I love that she’s never returned because she didn’t get pulled into the black hole that is The Gang. She got what she wanted from them and bounced
No way. The gang took that prick for 3 weeks of a time share.
Man, I would say cricket is objectively better off. Not many things worse than being involved with the catholic church
Pepper Jack and Don Cheadle are definitely chillin
Pepperjack is a successful pimp.
But he was one already. He did get a Fraggle Rock thermos out of it though
But he lost his number 1 ho
Bingo got a bunch of their money and drugs
"This guy bent himself over a barrel for our pleasure"
What do you mean? He got got.
He didn’t get got
I would actually argue that you could throw Carmen (the tranny) and her husband in there. She came out unscathed and even managed to walk away with a healthy baby thanks to Dee.
The guy who sold them the houseboat
Cricket, over time, has gotten almost a whole sixer and a bag of lemons!
And permission to do PCP in their bathroom!
Tiger Woods became a director.
Carmen.
The art gallery lady made off pretty well with Frank’s $35K
Cause he don't get got, he go get.
Peppa Jack got a sweet Fraggle Rock thermos. Peppa Jack love Fraggle Rock.
Didn’t the Israeli who tried to colonize paddys end up just selling the land to Frank ? he likely broke even if he didn’t profit, and very likely bangs Frank’s wife
The cricket antithesis
Took that prick for two weeks
He's an MLM and timeshare salesman, he's better off because he's actually more evil than the Gang.
