I will always defend Troy when it comes down to the text he sent abed in pillows and blankets s3 ep14. When it comes down to it, what Troy did is in fact justifiable.
Troy wanted to build a blanket fort so he could get this cool record for largest blanket fort ever. Abed didnât wanna, he called it stupid and Troy moved on.
Then here comes the air conditioning repair man on his way to make Troy insecure about his role in his friendship with abed and make him feel like heâs just following abed around and listening to his every order.
So - he goes back to abed and expresses his feelings only for abed to say âyeah sure you can build a blanket fort, just donât connect it to my pillow fort.â Maybe Iâm just sensitive but I would of been upset over this If I was Troy.
Troy makes his blanket fort, gets a bunch of people on his team, has a war, and then gets shown an email his best friend wrote.
âTroy will hold on until heâs broken emotionally. Fortunately this will not be hard.â
âHeâs insecure about his level of intelligenceâ
âHis greatest vulnerability of all is his emotionally frailty. Itâs incredibly easy to make him cry, and heâs incredibly ashamed of that fact.â
And all of this plus abed listing all of troys weaknesses.
Troy reacts emotionally to stuff
So after finding out his best friend told what feels like the entire school his insecurities and weaknesses he acted emotionally.
He reacted in a cruel and mean way because he got his feelings hurt by someone he trusted, this âsomeoneâ was the person he liked the most.
Maybe Iâm bias because I react the same way, if someone is mean Iâm also gonna be mean, Iâm gonna react emotionally.
Abed knew this was wrong, he did. Abed knew this wasnât an ok thing to do. He didnât want Troy to see it, Troy wasnât supposed to see it. Abed knew and you canât convince me he didnât. Donât infantilize abed more than he already is.
And the cherry on top of all of this, Troy and abed didnât even have a conversation about troys insecurities about beings abeds sidekick.
