Well, honestly Uncle Billy was Forrest Gump minus the luck. He's in the nuthouse in the no-George universe. He's donkeybrained.

That was really the only truly 100% believable thing about the no-George universe. Everything else was a decent to enormous stretch. I still laugh at the idea that Bedford Falls becomes this nightmarish dystopia with strip clubs and bars if not for George Bailey.

And Mary Hatch is an old maid if she never marries George? GTFO. She had guys all over her in high school, and Sam Wainwright wanted to marry her. In no universe is a charismatic knockout like Mary Hatch an old maid librarian.

Forget Uncle Billy, the guy who gets completely off the hook is Potter's footservant. That dude is pushing Mr. Potter around and knows that Mr. Potter stole the $8000 from Uncle Billy (and yes, it is theft) and he does nothing, staying silent. That makes him an accessory to a crime without any real benefit like Mr. Potter. That guys sucks. If nothing else, blackmail your boss a little and get a taste of that $8000.

I think a lot of people can relate to this. A lot of us have an uncle like this....a real screwball but such a nice guy you can’t be mad at him for being a screwball. I know I had one like this.
