The only reason why he was a psycho in Hurl and Go Seek & Lies, Cries, and One Big Prize is because Terry McGurrin wasn't smart enough to come up a more plausible way to make both of those episode's conflicts feel more natural. He thought that making Dave unlikeable for no appearent reason is enough to give both of the plots "intense". Clearly, Terry shouldn't write any episodes that has Dave in the spotlight. He sucks at it.
