Now we have the moment at the end of Keystone Constables that sort of pwns them all. So much so that I question whether it's even in character. But everyone else here is convinced that there is just a "domestic side" of William that didn't come out until he married Julia.

I'd peg it as slightly out of character as well. William has made like two jokes in 8 years. I wouldn't mind William to come out of his shell more and have more fun in that way, but that scene was just really out of the blue (I do love it, though). I probably would have thought it was a blooper if I hadn't seen it within an episode.

I prefer to think of that episode as William trying to grasp humour, much like Data in STNG. Thus, I don't see it as out of character. That said, I also put together other parts of that episode, including him tying to explain the jokes to Julia and him determinedly making the whoopee cushion at his desk--both of which I read as supporting this idea.

When he used the Whoopee cushion on Julia. He laughed so hard! S8-ep9
