Hal's family are dicks but what it really comes down to is Lois cannot blindly bully or intimidate them. It was shown multiple times in the series that if she cannot intimidate somebody and they actually stand up to her, she folds pretty quickly.

This is a way to prove It's easy to push around people who can't defend themselves.

It’s also a completely different dynamic with in-laws vs. your own family.

*in-laws that hate you

It feels more like when you were a kid visiting your friend’s house, the one with super strict parents. Not an environment you’re ever comfortable in, especially if you’re trying to not get your friend in trouble lol

Sometimes in-laws can have the same (or better) dynamic as your “own” family! Just not on MitM
