The part where he terrorized a widow who filed for bankruptcy and was on welfare. That's not sympathetic or relatable or funny or entertaining to me.

On the other hand look at the provocation he's had to put up with. The constant questioning of everything he says and giving it a sexist slant, Linda spreading her hatred of him throughout that house, deliberately trying to wake him up when he wants to sleep. He's put up with far more from them than they have from him.

It wasn't just him bringing it up. It was the fact that she was in her bed near (and eventually in) tears and he kept covering around her trying to get a reaction in the smuggest of ways, misrepresenting what he said. And his first apology that morning was the most transparent thing I've seen so that doesn't even count in my books.
