With Daniel, the term refers to his unreasonable immunity from the consequences of his actions. Prior to his [[Second Jail Arc#The Arrest|2024 arrest]] and subsequent incarceration on [[Second Jail Arc#The Charges|seven charges]] of making threats against [[August 29th Meltdown|government sites]] and [[Daniel MacDougall|officials]] in his numerous [[meltdowns]], Daniel had seemingly avoided any serious or long-lasting consequences for his misdeeds and crimes, such as [[December 10th Incident|assaulting]] [[Bob Proctor|his elderly mentor]] and [[Elisabeth Shimer|disabled mother]], [[Dine and Dashing|defrauding multiple businesses]], [[Red Robin Incident|indecently exposing himself in public spaces]], and his [[Colorado Mills Mall Incident|numerous]] [[Buffalo Wild Wings ejection|instances of]] [[Porch Charging Incident|trespassing]]. | With Daniel, the term refers to his unreasonable immunity from the consequences of his actions.

Time and time again, the [[R/Daniellarson|Larsonian community]] had watched Daniel incriminate himself multiple times by filming his wrongdoings and posting or streaming them online for all the world to see; the most that would happen would Daniel being [[Jail Arc|held in jail for, at most, a few weeks]], or simply being given a [[Olive Garden Incident|slap-on-the-wrist]]. This became one of the more infamous parts of Daniel's presence, both in real life and online, as Daniel seemed, for a substantial stretch of time, to be above the law, or at least immune to | Time and time again, the [[R/Daniellarson|Larsonian community]] had watched Daniel incriminate himself multiple times by filming his wrongdoings and posting or streaming them online for all the world to see; the most that would happen would Daniel being [[Jail Arc|held in jail for, at most, a few weeks]], or simply being given a [[Olive Garden Incident|slap-on-the-wrist]].

Daniel's plot armor seemed to break for good when he was arrested on 30 April 2024, 24 days after [[April 6th Incident|his most intense and infamous meltdown to date]] in Larstory, and then spent nearly two years behind bars. Many speculated that he was at serious risk of being institutionalized for the rest of his life ([[Second Jail Arc#Plea Agreement|plea deals]] notwithstanding). However, he was released from prison on 21 [[July 2026]]. | Daniel's plot armor seemed to break for good when he was arrested on 30 April 2024, 24 days after [[April 6th Incident|his most intense and infamous meltdown to date]] in Larstory, and then spent nearly two years behind bars.

However, he was released from prison on 21 [[July 2026]]. However, this does not mean his plot armor has fully re-materialized; his release comes with the mandates of being on probation for up to two years, and having his behavior online and offline heavily monitored by caregivers and officers. | ||
