contents Let $\ell$ be a prime number, $k$ a positive integer and consider the group $Γ_{\ell^k} :=\langle a,b\ \vert\ a^{\ell^k(\ell^k-1)}ba^{-\ell^k}b^{-2}\rangle$. We prove that $Γ_{\ell^k}$ is not $\mathrm{SL}_2$-weakly integral with obstruction at exactly the prime $\ell$. We also give a general description of the character varieties of $2$-generated groups with a relation of the form $a^{n_1} b^{m_1} a^{n_2} b^{m_2} = 1$.
