The fatigue factor would be huge, yes, and so the portrayal of the test as "no big deal" IS a big deal as it would be so exhausting for him.<br /><br />Yes, Lena is a POC as well. And we have seen past evidence (in 4x01) that Jesus is extremely aware of himself around police. <br /><br />The lines by Gabe and Emma did seem natural to say, but Emma, in particular, was uncomfortable when saying them. Especially in this episode.<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Tonia Sayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11406280143637741965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4060372686205861977.post-52311435136750332822017-08-17T21:51:18.615-05:002017-08-17T21:51:18.615-05:00My biggest beef with this episode is that they tre...My biggest beef with this episode is that they treat a GED as a non education and almost illegal. A GED IS an education! This show makes people with GEDs seem like less and that’s a slap in the face to people who have them. Its a bad GED stereotype that says only traditional classrooms work. When I took my GED if you wanted accommodations you had a 2-3 month wait period to get them and you needed a note from a doc so totally unrealistic on many levels. Your right about Jesus tiring his brain too much after a test. In regards to Lena, correct me if I am wrong but isn’t she a POC herself? If so,you are right, she should be aware of Jesus and police. I don’t think this is purely a problem of non disabled writing, its just plain lazy on multiple levels like they are just pumping out episodes without any thought.<br />The scene with Gabe seems natural though. He just wants Jesus on a better path than himself. The lines “everything” and “So much could happen” from Emma also seems natural after a new brain injury like her saying “what if you get injured again?” Just my opinion. GREAT REVIEW!
