Jelo: Murphy's Law states that anything that can go wrong, can go wrong. That kid, Milo has Extreme Hereditary Murphy's Law. I'll tell you about it.

EHML is a condition the Murphy family is affected by. The basic idea of the hereditary disease is simple: it causes extreme bad luck among members of the Murphy family. The idea of "bad luck" as seen in the series leads to catastrophic events and damage. Murphy's Law is shown to have extreme social consequences on whoever has it: most people familiar with the effects of the law will stay away from whoever has it. Milo's EHML results in a cyclone of calamities which follows him wherever he goes, following the guidelines of Murphy's Law. This may lend to any kind of consequences, from just slipping, to exagerated catastrophes like entire buildings being destroyed, things catching fire without reason, exploding trucks, or many other types of catastrophic events. Murphy's law is totally unpredictable, which means that the severity of the consequences cannot be judged by simply considering the severity of things that have happened before. This means that there is no rhyme or reason to when someone affected by the law will encounter bad luck. Therefore, there is no way to "plan" for Murphy's Law.

Marco: Whoa. Okay, what does that mean?

Jelo: In other words, Milo is a walking catastrophe, and everyone gets away from him in an attempt to save their lives. Luckily there are people who are brave enough to befriend him, by that I mean Zack and Melissa, and most people are used to Milo's bad luck. Also, we need to save him.
