Ever dream of dating a woman where you talk about "environmental racism," "climate warriors," and "late-stage capitalism"? Well, a rich businessman went through that nightmare on the ABC sitcom Home Economics. It makes you wonder how much a guy is willing to torture himself for a woman.
In the episode, titled "Chorizo with Mojo Verde and Chicharron, $45," (https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/122664-s02e02-chorizo-with-mojo-verde-and-chicharr%C3%B3n-45/?do=getNewComment) on September 29, wealthy businessman Connor (Jimmy Tatro) starts dating Lindsay (Anna Akana), an uber-woke friend of Connor's left-wing lesbian sister, Sarah (Caitlin McGee), and Sarah's "wife," Denise (Sasheer Zamata).
Soon Connor goes from “the brother destroying the environment” and “exploit[ing] the masses” to spouting left-wing talking points around Lindsay. "I was making my first batch of almond milk when it hit me. We gotta stop killing cows for milk," he says.
"He's got a long way to go, but he's willing to learn. And I enjoy being his tutor," Lindsay tells Sarah happily.
Sarah is troubled. "...Connor's wokeness, it's so obviously just an act to impress Lindsay," she privately tells Denise.
As the episode progresses, Connor goes to the mat to woo his new girlfriend with woke beliefs. He opens up his mansion to Lindsay for her book club "where members discussed novels by and about oppressed women" and even studies up on the 500-page book about "climate refugees." Actually, he has his housekeeper, Lupe (Lidia Porto), read it aloud while he works out.
Sarah becomes particularly frustrated when Connor joins the book club and tries to catch him unprepared.
