Our Son, The Man (S2E18)





Incident #1: Greg slams the door into Alice who then needs to change her mind about what to do with the eggs that have just smashed onto her chest. She'd planned on hard-boiled but has to settle for scrambled. AND, who the fuck do you think is going to clean up that mess? Nothing is ever said because it's ASSUMED to be Alice! Plus, she is made to look the fool by how she reacts to the mess.


Incident #2: Carol is not to be seen when Alice delivers lunches to the kids. The lunches are VERY FULL and it's obvious that Alice spent a LOT of time preparing them. But of course there's not a word of thanks. Then she pushes them out the door. Carol then appears with Mike, but they're both oblivious to the kids leaving for school and the work that Alice seems to do without even thinking about it -- as if she's been doing it every day for years with no break. No one seems to give a shit about the time and energy needed to make such huge lunches and then get those stinking little rats out the door!
