You know, the first time I read this, I thought she wouldn't even understand by the end that the term was "in-laws" and that Karl was saying, "You mean in laws", as in "What do you call them in laws?" A very broken way of asking "what do you legally call them?"
Now that I spell it all out, that wouldn't be a very good joke.

Americans just don't talk about their in-laws as much. You'd think we'd have a real word for it, too.
