Reply to comment by locks_are_paranoid in TIL that a prison riot in 1985 on Spike Island near Cork, Ireland, ended after a mother of a prisoner heard what was happening, came to the island,& roared at her son through a megaphone after he had been on a roof for hours; it took only a few minutes of shouting & the remaining prisoners came down by newshoeshudis

I can even remember the scene, paraphrased:

> Lois: stares

> Dewey: (flat) "I'm cold. We should come down. This wasn't such a good idea. I'm scared. We're disappointing her-"

> Malcolm: (shaking him) "DEWEY! Stop looking at her!"

I meant the episode with the motorcycle gang taking over the house and Dewey calling all of their mothers to make them leave. Were you talking about the billboard episode?
