I think Megan is onto something and her "research" is just how her mind works. I get it. She sees it as something she can fix or help with. I also think the others are letting her do all the checking and are waiting to hear what she finds out. I also have always thought Brooks was slimy. He's just too calm and " saddened" by people's responses to him. I think he's faking something, whether or not it's the cancer or the stage of it, there is something there that just doesn't click. If he was really sick, he would be angrier and probably try to prove them wrong. Vicki is also the biggest hypocrite but she's also pathetic. She does nothing but screech and has no clue how to have a healthy relationship. She's also the least self-aware person I have ever seen.
And, I have to say something about Tamra not telling Eddie about the money. First, so wrong. Second, Ryan saying it's a "family thing" means he doesn't see Eddie as family and Tamra didn't disagree with him. Sorry buddy, but he is your mom's husband and he's right. I have two sons, 29 and 31 and while we are there to help when needed, 8K would not be a gift, but a loan. Heck, DH and I loaned DS and DDIL $1500 for their move back a couple of months to our area and DS has told us he is paying us back and he hated borrowing it. Ryan acts like it's an entitlement. And, wait, I thought Sarah was successful. So, why doesn't she have the money?
