I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I don't know how anyone think that Dale knows.

The whole gag with him is that he's acts like some super clever spy type who can see through every conspiracy.

In the stolen mower episode where the gang fucks with with him even Nancy tells them it's not hard to fool him.

Exactly. Him knowing undercuts this entire gag, which is pretty simple (but still great).

I think part of what makes him an interesting character is that we can't know for sure what he knows, only speculate, and that makes him more real to us. We all get to decide for ourselves, and that decision colors the narrative.

This concludes my Ted talk.

Dale is also really trusting of the closest people in his life. Which basically is his family and Hank.

Let's say Dale knows let's humor this, in this case he's into it, he wouldn't be giving Redcorn poo poo in private. Dale is just brain damaged from never using a mask while killing bugs and almost killing himself.

I've taken it to be that Dale doesn't know, as the gag is that Dale is a conspiracy nut who doesn't see the forest for the trees.

But he's written in such a way that if it was ever revealed in an episode to him without any ambiguity he would just casually say something like "well yeah, I thought everyone knew that"

And I’m pretty sure his hand reaches over a gun in there to get the pen and paper too to make the gag even funnier.

The episode where Enrique has marital issues and becomes all attached to the Hill family does a great job of capturing a very specific type of guy.
