* For context, Dan and Chris would find Elise's lab and see a glass of "juice". Chris wants to drink it but Dan warns Chris that it might be poisonous, so Dan decides to give the "juice" a test by drinking it first. Unfortunately, said "juice" turns out to be SuperSerum put in a glass of water, a fact that Elise warns Dan about; Elise then tells Dan that the serum was in its testing stages and that his transformations are triggered by anger -- and since Dan is ''[[HairTriggerTemper always]]'' angry, he has no control over his powers, much to Chris's horror; Elise puts a watch on Dan to prevent him from involuntarily shape-shifting and then tells him ''not'' to abuse his power whenever he goes on his revenge quests, and Dan reluctantly agrees with her.

** This might result in a sequel episode where Dan gets his name cleared, allowing Dan and Hortense to be able to get back together, but it would result in a terrorist organization of radical feminists plotting to murder Dan simply for being a man who refuses to be a feminist and Hortense for being a “traitor” to womankind. To balance things out, a militia of moderate feminists will show up as the [[HeroOfAnotherStory heroes]] who help the anti-hero Dan and hero Hortense fend off the radical feminists.

It's entirely plausible that this organization had developed a dossier on Dr. Pullem, but didn't have the evidence to move against him. Elise, seeing that Dr. Pullem was Dan's dentist, and that Dan had a convenient grudge against him, lied about Pullem drilling a new cavity in Dan's mouth. This gave Dan the fuel he needed to really get after Pullem, and take down his supervillainy. A little bit of Magnificent Bastardry, and Elise kills two birds with one stone; helps Dan get his revenge, and puts an indirect stop to Pullem's schemes.

I can only imagine the rap sheet Chris has from constantly being Dan's accomplice. Elise doesn't exactly help. She convinces Chris to rob a bank, sabotages his golf game with his boss and puts his former boss in a coma. Of course, Chris probably has a few convictions for reckless driving ("You've run over dozens of cyclists." New Mexico) and leaving the scene of an accident (Chris drives away after hitting a cyclist in the Werewolf and hits a bunch of cars in the Dentist.), so maybe it's not all Dan's fault.
