I think he's referring to the fourth movie (Age of Extinction).
I wouldn't exactly call it "pedophile laws," personally What was referenced was Romeo & Juliet laws/clauses, where two people are together when both are under the legal age of adulthood but, due to a separation in age, as they continue to be together, one of them passes into adulthood while the other is below the legal age limit.
It's essentially the type of law for things like a 17 year old dating a 15 year old and then the 17 year old turns 18 while the 15 year old either stays 15 or turns 16.
In the movie, the main character's daughter is technically underage and her boyfriend is above age, but they started dating when he was underage as well. The father originally sees the teenage boy as a pedophile and the teenager defends himself with said law mentioned above.
Yeah, but the fact that he literally carries around the law with him is really fucking sus. Like... they purposely wrote that into the movie. They could have so easily just NOT done that.
