Rooster Recap: Thanksgiving Breakup

In “All the Dogs’ Names,” Greg is adjusting to life after his breakup with Cristle. The breakup is surprisingly comical – Cristle initiates it, expecting a fight from Greg, and is then upset when he doesn’t resist, even though she’d have turned him down regardless. During the breakup, Cristle casually mentions a difficult past event – Tommy’s dad leaving for his math teacher. It’s a bit sad to consider how Greg’s relationship with Tommy’s mom might be stirring up those old feelings for him. Poor Tommy is really struggling in this episode, and it’s concerning. He attends Greg’s seminar wearing sunglasses, claiming he only sees “a snake between two Gatorade trees” when he looks at his professor. That’s a disturbing image, Tommy, and a pretty harsh assessment of Greg!
