This is the thing, the show parodies our societal customs, traditions, views, laws and beliefs. The point is to show the stupidity of some, the hypocrisy of others, and even those we feel are wrong, how sometimes they're necessary.
It's my opinion that the last episode is where the season is finally getting back on track after Uncle Julius' death -- the drug dealer's wedding & reception. I finally had a semi-laugh. I'm getting to the point.
and even those we feel are wrong, how sometimes they're necessary.
People from meager beginnings who've made it big get rebuked when it seems they haven't given back, don't keep in touch, or have turned their backs on old friends, some relatives, and hometown acquaintances. That episode made the expression, "you can't go home again," very clear and relatable. Instead of criticizing the new wealthy for keeping their distance, I totally empathize with
their dilemma.
Back to Missy:
Her background and upbringing is where they are now: Geographically, economically, and customarily. While Reggie keeps Cam in check, Missy's needed to integrate the family into the polite south.
Ghetto is common. Missy's POV is fresh. I haven't seen it since Whitley Gilbert.
