    I have a bit of a different theory in which Roger actually belonged to a family maybe living in the countryside judging by his clothes. But as he grew up, his family noticed his odd tendencies and thought something might’ve been wrong with him. So they may have sent him to a mental institute where he was diagnosed with Schizophrenia, which would make sense for his erratic behavior. I also believe he escaped from the institute and made his way towards the creek where he found other kids and decided to stay. But because he missed his family and possible one friend he made in the institute, he may have developed Dissociative Identity Disorder which would explain his mud friend and makes him believe he has family to take care of him. As for how he was able to grab milk for that specific episode, it doesn’t exactly look good and maybe spoiled so perhaps he gets food from behind shops in the town in which they throw away food. But that’s just my theory, a film theory! Thanks for listening

    I've seen a guy by the road before begging; his sign read homeless and hungry, but he stood there with the sign while smoking. My mom said to me "so he can't afford a place to live or food, but he can afford to smoke."; for a but more context we have several choosing beggers in our area so there's a good chance he isn't what he says he is, and the begging money is just to feed his addiction.

  • @GtotheOria

    tbh I don't think his parents intentionally neglect him, I think Roger is just a typical 'latch-key' kid from a likely low-income household. Speaking as someone who was a low-income latch-key kid myself (and also grew up around the area CoTC takes place in, funnily enough. I mean obviously herkleston isn't real but I grew up in Germantown and Gaithursburg with grandparents on the eastern shore.) it's less intentional neglect in an abusive way and moreso likely living with a single parent who spends most of their time working to put food on the table. I got myself to school alone, came home alone, and usually had to make dinner for myself. And y'know what was really easy and safe to make as a kid? Cereal. No stove or real preparation involved. And cereal is super cheap. Being latch-key also meant I was responsible for most of my own grooming habits. When your parent doesn't get home until 10 or 11pm, there's nobody there to tell you to brush your teeth or take a shower. Since my mom was busy all the time she had a rule that anytime I'd be out of the house to visit friends or something, she had to know 24 hours in advance. (this was before cell phones.) The missing poster makes me think Roger just hung out too long somewhere one day and his parent got home late, noticed he was missing, and freaked out. It seems sad but a lot of kids I knew growing up with divorced parents lived as latch-key kids too. The main difference was how much parenting absent parents do even if they aren't around as much. Some of my friends had NO supervision at all and grew up in squalor but did whatever they wanted. I walked a fine line where I was alone a lot but still had a parent around to discipline me if I got bad grades or whatever. So it's kind of like...the difference between Roger and Xavier. Xavier seems to be latch-key too but his family has money, so he's emotionally neglected. I'm sure it'll be something explored in a future episode of the show. Kids always think that they way they live and their families are 'normal' and everyone else lives like that too. It can be shocking to visit a new friends and find out their family and lifestyle is completely different, but they think THEIR way is normal.

It would be cool if it was hinted that there could be a supernatural element to him too, like those stories about kids getting lost in the woods and claimed by the supernatural.

    Hello, making a second comment on this video, but when you mentioned that if Roger were to have ran away and is now considered missing that it's possible Roger might have a tent or something in the creek I have an idea that Riddle Bridge IS where he spends his time if he has and does run away from home. If you look closely near the shore under Riddle Bridge you can see a dirtied puffer jacket, what seems to be a folded blanket or two, and some dirtied rain boots. So it is VERY likely that Roger would keep these items here or whenever he runs away or just doesn't go home.

    It’s very possible that Roger comes from a bad home, it’s more likely really, but I like to imagine that he actually comes from a very wealthy family that prides itself on cleanliness and hygiene. So he comes to the Creek to be as dirty and weird as he wants, also because he is lonely.

    I've also noticed something. Roger has very pale skin. Despite being outside seemingly ALL the time, You would assume he may be a bit more tan? RIGHT? However, I have a feeling he has Albinism. Including/supporting this claim, He has pink eyes. Commonly with those who are albino such as rats, and other animals. Of course most humans who have the albino factor mixed in have violet/purple eye colors and or die at the near age of 20+. With this it may be the reason he looks so sickly. Most who have albino features tend to have other medical problems smushed together. Including bad eyesight to follow. This could possibly mean its why he's so sick, Or odd. He could even have some form of mental medical problem as well. Which could be why he runs away, or leaves his family. With the other supporting factors of a neglectful parent or parents.

    There is this anime named Kotaro something (Because I forgot the name) about a kid that suffered some type of traumatic experience with his dad and mom. The episodes are about this kid and how he manage to survive alone while receives help from his neighbors. There is this one episode that talks about a dentist. He stayed with the children and talk with them abbout their life in home and school. His assistant thinking that this behaviour is strange asks hhim why he does this and he explains. Once a little girl gone to his clinic because she hhas problems with her teeth. She was guided by him who told her what she should do and he asked for her to talk with his mother about her teeth situation. Then they booked a new visit for her and she was gone. The days passed and the little girl suddenly appeared in his work place again. She said she wanted to talk with the dentist about her teeth, the guy talked to her, but sent her back home saying that her session wasn't booked for thhe next day. At the end, the girl never returned for another session. When the dentist searched about her to find somethhing he discovered that she became homeless, her mother and father abandoned her and she was rescued from living on streets. The side history ends with him saying that the oral health of a kid has a lot to talk about how they're treated at home, so he always wanted to talk with the children to know if everything is okay in their home.

    I actually knew some kids with a life like that. 3 brothers aged about 13, 8, and 6. They always got made fun of or avoided for ratty clothes and smells. It was so bad us younger(6-8) kids genuinely believed they were sick or something. Years later, about 10, I ran into them at a different school after a couple transfers. They lived with cousins. Apparently, their parents were addicts that tried cooking sometimes or something. Meth is a big problem in my area. Family had finally intervened and gained custody. I almost don't want this to be true as a theory, because the implication that you would burden children with the knowledge, and inherent feeling of responsibility, that they could have friends in these terrible situations, that are usually too complicated to do anything about, is almost sickening.

    i've never watched this show. know nothing about it. but I dont think roger's parents are looking. there are 2 numbers ripped from the missing poster. unless that was done during the episode by someone seen. that means people have seen him in the creek, and tried to contact them, twice. they know he's at the creek. they dont care.

    As a kid adventure time was one of my favourite shows because it's a fresh air that the main characters don't have the best kind of parents like me. I'm just so used to the main characters going home, eat dinner and crack jokes with them and sometimes those scenes made me feel left out. It would be really nice to subtly hint that situation with Roger so neglected kids like me don't feel alone

    Interesting character selected, but yeah. Always had a feeling about him during this past season. Seems like he has been going through something with the cops searching the creek and him being dirty all the time. Not to mention depressed. I think he has been molested. So many signs there when other kids are saying they understand his situation and parents talk about him.

    I think it’s to show how dehumanizing homelessness really is. When people are unhoused for so long become “feral animals who should just get a job or stop ruining their own lives” In the eyes of many. So it would make sense to start off showing him as creepy and othered then slowly reveal that he is intact homeless and then show him slowly other the kids around him because he realizes that he can’t project feelings and wants onto others. In his effort to have someone, he had anyone. I want him to heal from that, idk. Maybe that’s just me, but I feel like he would be cool to be around at least when he’s older.
