Dale, Nancy, & John Redcorn

If you don't watch King of the Hill and is scratching your head, here's the lowdown:
Dale and Nancy Gribble were married and Nancy had a 14 year love affair with local Indian, John Redcorn, who was a massage therapist/healer for migraines kinda thing. John Redcorn and Nancy had a teenage son, Joseph, who they passed off as Dale's. Well, Joseph looked absolutely nothing like Dale! It was very obvious! But poor Dale was clueless. Nancy covered by saying that Dale had a Jamiacan grandmother. However Dale did figure out that Joseph wasn't 'his' son...well...not what you would normally think! Dale was into conspiries, very paranoid that the government is after him, you would think he would put two and two together! But when it comes to his wife Nancy, Dale is blinded by love. Anyway, Dale realized that he was away looking for aliens when Joseph was conceived, but thought that the aliens pregnanted Nancy somehow. In one episode, Joseph suggested that maybe the aliens somehow got a hold of Dale's DNA and put it in Nancy, to which Dale believed!
In the third season, Nancy and John Redcorn broke off their romance/affair. Dale had been acting sweet and affectionate towards her (as he hadn't for a long time, something to do with perserving himself...) so she decided to end her affair. Eventually, a few years, Nancy realized she was loosing her hair due to stress. She turned to her mother, thinking that it's in the genes but her mother shocked her by saying she lost all her own hair (and wore a wig) because she herself ended her own affair to be faithful to her husband. If Nancy wants to save her affair- revive her affair with John Redcorn. Nancy actually did attempt to do so but Dale came back, sweeping her off her feet as he wanted to spend his last remaining moments with the woman he loves (don't ask what it was about, let's just say Dale's nuts! something to do with going into the future and was afraid of running into himself). Nancy got a wig. Another couple of years down the line (I think it was during the final season), it was realized that Nancy needed Dale more than Dale needed Nancy. If Dale wasn't around with all his schenignans and Nancy keeping after him, she would turn into a lethall bitch. Not a pretty sight.
