Dennis Gets Divorced
Criminal Activities
Coercion
Using threats or false statements to compel another party to provide services or act (criminal coercion or extortion depending on jurisdiction).
Situation:
"When confronted about staying in the apartment, Maureen (the spouse) threatens to call the police and tell them the men beat her unless they leave: "How about if you guys don't leave, I call the cops and I tell 'em you beat me?" That explicit threat to make a false accusation to force the others out is present in the transcript."
Kidnapping
Unlawful restraint or confinement of a person and transporting them against their will; moving an incapacitated person across jurisdictions can constitute kidnapping/false imprisonment under U.S. law.
Situation:
"Dee in the episode explicitly states, "I just kidnapped Bill Ponderosa's kids." The scene that follows involves Bill, his wife, and the children being involved with the group. That explicit admission in the episode constitutes custodial interference/kidnapping."
