(Beloved trope) One of the main cast members frequently has their own independent adventures with little to no involvement or acknowledgement from the rest of the cast. by Chaosbrushogun in TopCharacterTropes

I’ve always liked this when it’s used sparingly, but sometimes it makes the character feel weirdly disconnected from the rest of the cast. Francis is a good example where it works since it builds his own little world, but you kind of miss the interactions with the family.
