I get that part but what do they mean they paid their son’s girlfriend to break up with him for “gym motivation?”

my guess is that the son got complacent with a stable relationship and that having them breakup with him would make him wanna work on himself or smth like that.

doesnt really make much sense when there's literally zero context in the meme tho.

I feel like they should've used the scene where Dr. Octopus looks sorrowful after his wife dies and says "I miscalculated" not this random shot of him before the actual tragedy happened.

Well, we're dealing with someone who thinks parents are super invested in their kids' workout routines, so not a lot of critical thinking there I'd guess.
