LET. ME. TALK. ABOUT. THIS.

“I think it’s suppose to be my romantic interest, but I’m too threatened by that concept so it never takes shape.”

First off, the possibility of Dewey being biromantic is STRONG as the romantic interest itself has a mix of a feminine and masculine voice all mixed into one, and this makes my bisexual heart cry, love that.

Second off, Dewey explicitly stating he’s “threatened” by the concept of a romantic interest highlights the fact he’s legit a 10 year old kid, so love and romance isn’t something that’s entered his brain that often and he hasn’t given it much thought. Which makes complete sense, most young boys don’t look into the concept of love.

Third off, going back to the mixed voice of the romantic interest, this can hint at the idea of Dewey himself not even knowing what he likes yet. Dewey clearly hasn’t given love much thought. He knows that it exists. He makes fun of it (along with Huey and Louie) when it comes to the relationship Scrooge has with Goldie. But when it comes to himself having an interest in another person, he doesn’t know what to think because he’s still growing up and doesn’t quite understand it yet. This hints that Dewey is still figuring that part of himself out, so the concept of a romantic interest “threatens” him because he doesn’t understand the concept. And this is realistic and totally understandable. He’s a kid. Kids don’t know these things. They’re learning.

He has plenty of time to figure out this part of him. He has time to figure out if he has interest in anyone. He has time to figure out if he doesn’t have any interest in anyone. He has time to figure out what kind of attraction he has. He has time.

It’s incredible this idea is being hinted at. I’ve always been a fan of the bisexual and ace Dewey headcanons, and this scene really hints at it hard, and as a bisexual myself, who struggled with this concept as well, I absolutely love it.

I love everything about Dewey’s character and this just adds to my love for him.

Actually, this deserves its own post because the way Abbott Elementary handled Melissa's character in this episode is genuinely some of the best dyslexia representation I have ever seen on TV.

She's not a little kid who overcomes her disability as an adult. Her dyslexia doesn't give her superpowers (weirdly common trope). She isn't portrayed as stupid by the show or the other characters because of it. She's a competent adult who has developed coping mechanisms to deal with her disability and is still shown to struggle sometimes despite that! Oh my god is that refreshing!

Also, Melissa being competitive about the reading challenge and Barbra's comment about how good she is at engaging kids in reading is totally recontextualized by the reveal that she has a learning disability and especially the reveal that she was probably teased for her LD as a kid (which I'm also so happy that they brought up - I don't think most people realize how competitive elementary schools tend to make reading, and how shitty and ostracizing that can be for kids who struggle with it). Winning the book challenge is important to her because it's something she used to really struggle with. She's good at getting kids to read because she can relate to their challenges in a personal way. They directly tie her LD to her strengths as a teacher without it being fantastical or over-emphasized and I can't even begin to tell you how much I love it!

The bit at the end where she says "you know how sometimes I have to read things a few times" to Janine, in the break room with no students present is also a great scene because it shows her LD in an adult, professional context. It's a conversation that I, and every dyslexic person I know, has had with their co-workers at some point. I just love that they make a point of normalizing her LD in an adult workplace setting that's separate from the classroom and away from the kids.

This season has done an awesome job talking about disability generally but the choice to give not just a student, but one of the teachers an LD was an absolutely perfect move. I really hope this gets brought up in later episodes and isn't just a one-off.
