"Untitled Blake McCormick Project", originally titled "Three Men and a Bastard", is the two hundred-twenty-fifth episode of King of the Hill. It was first aired on February 17, 2008. The episode was written by Blake McCormick and directed by Ken Wong.
When Bill starts dating a woman with children, Dale notices something suspicious about her daughter and discovers she has the same father as Joseph.
Bill becomes involved with an attractive single mother, Charlene (Candi) who has returned to Arlen after being away for some years. When Charlene introduces her two children to Hank, Dale and Boomhauer, Dale immediately dislikes her oldest, Kate. He confides in Hank that he thinks something is wrong with Kate and that he intends to get to the bottom of it. Hank tells him to leave it alone but Dale steals a sample of Kate's hair and orders a DNA analysis. When the test discovers similarities between Kate's DNA and Joseph's, his son, he realizes that they are half-siblings. He hypothesizes the same aliens that impregnated Nancy Gribble also impregnated Charlene with his genetic material to start a Dale-based master race. Not wanting Bill to raise "his" daughter, Dale tries to sabotage his relationship by asking John Redcorn to seduce Charlene.
John Redcorn soon realizes that Charlene is a woman he slept with years ago, although he knew her only by her stage name. Charlene and John Redcorn begin to date, with Charlene using the excuse that she's spending time with her old girlfriends and constantly leaving the kids with Bill. Meanwhile, Nancy finds out and confronts Redcorn in her kitchen. Dale walks in while they're arguing and they quickly switch to using his name, such as when John Redcorn says "Dale would never cheat on you." This just serves to anger Nancy and confuse Dale. At the Hills', Peggy looks out the window and sees chemistry forming between Joseph and Kate. Aware of the relation between the two, Peggy sends Bobby out to be the "third wheel" in their relationship to prevent anything from developing.
