And the thing is, Abby's actually an eerily accurate depiction of a gifted person. Extremely intelligent yet extremely naïve and curious, with unique tastes, who gets along better with older people and seems to be very fragile; as well as the way people treat her. I don't know if it was intentional, but they nailed it, for better or worse. Just like they nailed it with Dory's amnesia in Finding Nemo.
Unpopular opinion: I don't like McGee very much. He just seems too generic and bland for me. There are other "nerdy" characters that are way better such as Jimmy Palmer, Dorneget (I hope they make him permanent!) and Abby herself. It's not that I dislike him, it's just that he does nothing for me.
