The genius part is where Rocky once again tells Anthony he has "poor social skills," at which point you can tell that Anthony is glad there's a camera on, because he knows he won't believe this later otherwise. He'd think he hallucinated it during an episode involving bad fish. When Rocky starts loudly lecturing Anthony some more, and Anthony says that Rocky doesn't know anything about him, Rocky complains that Anthony never told him anything. Anthony asks whether Rocky ever asked, and Rocky -- who is rapidly becoming almost enough of a buffoon to be funny, but not quite -- tells Anthony not to raise his voice.
And then, once again, Rocky makes a reference to people who talk "like men," and Anthony points out that this is Rocky's favorite argument. Rocky tells Anthony he's a "jellyfish," and tells him to "toughen up," and once again calls him "a little girl": "You're effeminant [sic]." Rocky keeps on saying "toughen up," because every time he says it, his dick grows one half-centimeter. When Anthony points out that Rocky's bullshit is why he doesn't bother trying to argue, Rocky goes back to lecturing him that he needs to stick up for himself and "take the skirt off a little bit." Anthony looks over at Jeff like "Tell me you're hearing all of this."
Rather than making a move to challenge Rocky on this line of misogynist shit, Jeff asks Alex why he looks so miserable, and Alex says that Rocky was just delivering some "tough love." Boy, Alex is walking right into the arrest joke, but I'm going to leave it. Suffice it to say that there's nothing either tough or loving about what Rocky just did. Bullies are cowards, and Rocky is both. Alex thinks that Rocky "might have hurt Anthony's feelings." I'm...not really sure that Rocky hurts Anthony's feelings anymore. I think Anthony has pretty much written Rocky off as a freakazoid, as have many of the rest of us.
