Why not loathe Cody? That seems to be what he's there for. I'm still waiting for the scene where Daphne bitchslaps him into next week, then dumps Justin on the doorstep of the loft and tells Brian, "I'm not taking him back until you've fucked some sense back into him. I'll need pictures as proof."

The above scene should happen at the beginning of an episode, so we get the benefit of Brian's "deprogramming" for the next fifty minutes of airtime.
