The Octet Rule doesn’t work
The Octet Rule doesn’t work all the time and there are many exceptions. Hydrogen is one of the most notable exceptions and only needs two electrons to fill its outer shell. If is often referred to as a Duet.

Even with the exceptions, the Octet Rule is a valuable rule of thumb that helps scientists predict how atoms will bond to form compounds. These predictions are often what is ultimately unobserved in the lab.
