Cook & JJ's friendship was the most wholesome thing in that depressing generation. And the lesbians of course.

[@dylansheppard2479]

I love how Cook genuinely enjoys his little magic tricks even when he's pissed beyond belief.

[@lukasvosseler3133]

What cook is an asshole to jj. He never takes him seriously and drives him away from a healthy friendship with freddie

[@Shade571]

@@lukasvosseler3133 Freddie was a dick, Cook was genuinely a nice guy to JJ, always happy to see him and brought him along to almost anything Infact whenever JJ snapped at cook, he would never respond and would just look at him all concerned Freddie would just get annoyed at JJ and speak to him in a disrespectful manner, Sure he called him a Barmy fucker behind his back but that’s what all friends do to each other I will say this though, Thomas was JJ’s true friend

He must legit have a strong tolerance for basically anything.

While his tolerance is unrealistic, something tells me Cook has been drinking from a young age.

[@GNVS300]

I just noticed how Cook walking past at 2:28 was used as a transition between JJ and Pandora. Nice.

[@Ash-bs3fs]

Whoa that was a GOOD transition

[@paumuvi5689]

[@softball90876]

Cook and the fish relates back to Chris in series 1. The smaller the tank the more contained Chris was. As his life got better so did the environment for his fish. This scene shows us cook is NOTHING like Chris. An important connection to make since kris was so beloved as a party animal and cook so hated.

[@darth6129]

Also the room that Cook stays in (where JJ finds him with Pandora in Episode 7) is the exact same room Chris stayed in after his Mom left.

[@alexvaughan1013]

Chris also seems to wear an "I'M COOK" shirt in his Season 2 episode.
