When Jessica asked if it's because they're black, Greg asked if she had looked at him lately, as he is a black man himself, and they bursted out laughing.[6]
Greg brought Jessica to school and spotted Justin. He got angry and approached Justin, asking what Justin has to say for himself. Jessica stopped him and asked him who he thinks he's hurting by doing this. Greg listened to her and got back into the car after warning Justin.[7]
