There’s one episode where an attractive female exterminator tries to bed Dale, and he has none of it.Dale with regards to John and Nancy's affair and Joseph's true parentage: is he really truly oblivious to it all, or has he known about it all along and just didn't say anything about it? And if it is the latter, is it because he's ambivalent to it all (for lack of options, money, Joseph's upbringing, or some other reason), actively screwing with everyone, intentionally playing dumb because he loves his family too much to risk losing them by confronting Nancy, or has he ( as this mini-fanfic ◊ postulates) been secretly long getting his revenge on John by being such a loving and devoted dad to Joseph, ensuring Joseph will see Dale as his dad and thus deprive John the chance to ever be close to the son he sired? Mike Judge himself hypothesized that Dale probably knows what the truth is deep, deep, deep down and all of the other conspiracy theories he's obsessed with are just a way of keeping himself in denial.Also, is Cotton really just a Jerkass father who's disappointed in his son and only cares about his past glories, or is he a Shell-Shocked Veteran broken from seeing all his friends getting killed horribly, being forced to kill fifty men just as innocent as himself, getting permanently crippled, developing a true romantic relationship with a Japanese nurse before being forced to leave her by the government that he already gave so much to, then being forced to return to a home which had nothing to give him except an impulsive wife who once accidentally defected to China and the glory of a war which destroyed all he held dear?.
