Dude nonchalantly kills a dog because its annoying him in the second episode
20 January 2024
Warning: Spoilers
In the second episode the mc is manipulated by his love interest into going to a therapy his sister had already paid for, and while at the therapist he ends up monologuing a bunch during which he somehow ends up getting really enraged. While all this is happening, there is this overly excited dog in the room barking a lot which he finds very annoying. After some time the dog calms down and during this time the therapist asks a question which apparently becomes the last straw for this dude, and in reaction he grabs the dog (who is now calm and just sitting by the therapists feet), and throws it out of the window with the dog landing a couple stories down on a car's roof, most likely dead or critically injured. Then this dude just walks out like its no big deal.

I am no writer and I guess 'black' comedy is supposed to be dark and stuff but this guy nonchalantly killing an innocent animal because of something like anger is something psychopaths do and they can't really be treated. Kinda stopped watching after this because character development is something that is inherently impossible for psychopaths. I don't think a show about a cynical dude finding love with some manic pixie dream girl works for a literal psychopath.
