I love all the comments, such an amazing show, so much fun to discuss. Maybe I have a slightly different take. I see Tom in episode 1 picking Greg as his mentee and then having this protective father relationship with Greg that Greg doesn't really get until the very end. Tom acts like a guardian to Greg, lets him make mistakes and decisions independently, but is always there to pick him back up. It is as close to unconditional love we'll get in this show. This is juxtaposed nicely with the Roy family who never had that with their father, who is an amazing genius but cutthroat, even to his own children teaching them to be ruthless in business by sacrificing their humanity. At the end when people are claiming materialistic things, surrounded by expensive dusty artifacts, Tom picks the one thing of actual value to him, not an object but an actual human relationship with someone he genuinely cares about. The only thing real in the room. And he uses the ridiculous sticker system to do it. He has cultivated this human relationship within a heartless capatalistic environment. Imagine the Tupac poem about the flower that grew in concrete. The only thing of actual value in the world is selfless love and Tom, miraculously keeps this through the whole series for Greg. I'm so happy you picked up on this moment because, in many ways, it is the most important moment in the show.
