with her, Dennis attempts to divorce Maureen, but she hires The Lawyer to negotiate with Jack Kelly, Dennis's lawyer. They reached a settlement where Maureen agrees to divorce Dennis on the grounds that he pays for her alimony and $90,000 debt, much to Dennis's displeasure. In Season 8, Dennis attempts to have Maureen sign off their alimony agreement as she prepares to marry Liam McPoyle, but Dennis has sex with her upon seeing her recent breast implants. The wedding would later be called off when chaos breaks out after Maureen's brother Bill spiked the wedding milk bowl. Over time, Maureen begins to transform herself into a cat through plastic surgery as well as catlike behavior, naming herself 'Bastet'. In the episode "McPoyle vs. Ponderosa: The Trial of the Century", during a separate trial, Dennis tries to argue in a court that he should no longer have to pay alimony to Maureen as she no longer considered herself human. Maureen dies in season 12 after attempting to climb the roof of a building and falling off, though it is heavily implied that Dennis might have pushed her ("Making Dennis Reynolds a Murderer", "Paddy's Has a Jumper"). In the Season 12 finale "Dennis' Double Life", Dennis reveals that he has fathered a child named Brian Jr. in North Dakota, under the false name 'Brian LeFevre', after a layover there ("The Gang Beats Boggs"). He attempts to fake his own death to avoid caring for the child, but later decides to move to North Dakota to raise him. He would return to Philadelphia in the premiere of Season 13.
