Wait, what.

C’mon, kid, Adam may not be the best dude, but he is a fantastic character! He refuses to get boxed into some predictable corner where he is either overwhelmingly terrible or sweet. He is terrible and sweet. He yells at cars but is a kitten. He is neither the all-id creature we first saw in the pilot nor the wheatpasting apologist of last week. Adam is a prism, and every new vantage point brings a new perspective, sometimes one that makes all the old ones seem hopelessly wrong. Haven’t you ever thought a nice person was a jerk and turned out to be wrong, or vice versa? Isn’t everyone really somewhere very much in between?
