The only good pigroach is a salty one.
What I can't wrap my head around is why he has that reaction even when it's not something gratuitous or silly, like the Candy Kong scene in DK64, or Johnny Silverhand having fun at a strip club in Cyberpunk 2077. Those scenes, under their given circumstances, you could argue are dumb or immature. A little. But THAT? No. There was nothing that happened there that doesn't happen in The Princess Bride, a movie we know he likes.
Speaking of which, here is a good question that, if ever honestly answered, would end the speculation: Does Phil do this shit when he watches his favorite movies? Because if he doesn't, if he and Khet sit down to enjoy a movie that has any kind of physical affection in it and neither one of them has any issue with it, then there you go. This is entirely about running away from the old version of Phil that made dumb sexual comments and racist jokes. If he only does it on camera, and never in front of his soulmaid, then it's not even about her or Leanna. It's about his image, which of course he thinks he can fix. It's why he suddenly cares about Twitter, after all.
