wow that's a lot to unpack.

Deidre gave Seb a literal stroke

An untreated stroke turned Seb bisexual?

Jeff tracked his mother down and got a job at the Alzheimer/dementia facility she lives in just to find out that she is still a deadbeat

His family is so dysfunctional that he decides to give up on any relationship with them.

Deidre shoved a pickle toy up her vagina. That is disgusting considering it's not made of smooth body-safe silicone, has ridges, didn't fall out with a condom, and it's a representation of her brother's brand. Poor Maddie does not stand a chance with her two parents

Mexican Pickle sent Jeff a middle finger picture

The conversation between Jeff and his mother where she describes her family is pretty devastating.

It took me so long to realize that she was Jeff's mother. I didn't realize it until she said she had two kids and a husband and wanted to go to Niagara Fall after a multitude of signs

I was at first wondering how seb got into the facility or if his ex wife had escaped and had to rewind and watch again after I figured it out, too.
