Imagine being a child, and your whole family dies, and it’s just you and your dad. And he starts locking himself in his office, claiming he has work to do, so you sit and you wait and you grieve. And then one day your mother is there like nothing ever happened, making breakfast and cleaning the house and homeschooling you just like she used to. And your dad is acting like this is completely normal. And this works for a while, but then this twisted version of your mom stops just cooking breakfast and cleaning the house and begins trying to have hobbies. And suddenly your mother is gone again and there is a new mom in the kitchen the next morning. And you realize that you will never get the closure of fully losing your mother, but you will also never get the satisfaction of having her back. And soon your mother, who used to adore you, is pampering these two new children that behave so well and aren’t sad and angry like the poor little .5. And you watch as every new version of your dead mother begins to view you with more and more disdain as you look into the lifeless eyes of a woman who used to sing you songs before bed every night, and you know there is no one who will ever believe you. Imagine being Timmy Trout.

What do you MEAN Trudy loved to read when she was human. What do you MEAN Tucker took that from her. What do you MEAN she lost pieces of herself integral to her identity as Tucker slowly changed pieces of her in an attempt to make her perfect while stripping her of the things that made her her.

Francis farnsworth new fear of sinning. First he let down his mom and dad and now he’s let down Trudy. He can’t be good enough for anyone but there is one set of rules he can follow and maybe maybe maybe he’ll finally be good enough for whatever being rules over their mad world.

Francis immediately being replaced by Trudy once she gets her real son back, her taking Timmy's side on everything and letting the same resentment she had for Timmy transfer to Francis instead I am going so insane. He was her stand in so she could make up for the mother she should've been and now he's her stand in for any resentment she still feels.

I genuinely honestly believed that Tucker was living out some sick twisted version of grief after his wife died in a tragic accident when it turns out he’s actually just a terrible horrible unredeemable monster who should die immediately

Actually I’m not ok with the fact that Timmy has seen his mother be replaced over and over again, and Everytime he saw the disdain she had for him grow because she kept becoming more like the ideal while he became less and less perfect because he’s human. And for the longest time he’s been the only person behaving like a human in his family because everyone else he loved has been replaced.

So if Tiffany and Little Tuck really were never real children, then Timmy had to watch this fake version of his mother start referring to these fake children as her two children while he had to be the point five. The forgotten child. The mess up. Can you imagine living in a doll house filled with fake versions of your dead family and being forced to go along with it every day because who are you going to tell? Who would believe you if you said that actually your mother is a robot and your siblings aren’t even real?

Tucker Trout looking Trudy in the eyes and telling her he’s moving on when he’s the one who took the ability to do that away from her. Like she’s the one who’s been tying him down. Like she’s the one keeping him in a cage.
