Are Jeremy & Audrey really just gonna take over Amy's house?

If I've missed something along the way, please let me know!

In one conversation, Matt talks about building a house for Jeremy & Audrey right beside him, when he's discussing his compound plans. Jeremy even mentions how close his house would be to Matt's when they're looking at the plans. Then Jeremy is in Zach's living room discussing moving into Amy's house and seeming kinda giddy about it. And, was it Zach that asked how Amy felt about it, and Jeremy responded that he didn't know? Then why would he even mention it to Zach if he had no idea how his mother felt about losing her own home? Doesn't seem very sweet, loving, son-like to me!
At what point is Jeremy just free to pack up his family and take over Amy's house? Was it settled in the divorce that Amy gets the big house? (I know she's also said she's not sure about living so close to Matt post-divorce). At what point in life is it OK for your grown children to pack up their family, arrive on your doorstep, move in & take control of your house? It seems like it's legally AMY'S HOUSE. Like I said, if I'm missing something, please correct me.

I don't think you've missed anything, that's what I saw, too. It seems just like controlling Matt that would want to get Jeremy back permanently on the farm with him, and attempt to slyly persuade Amy into giving up the house. Unfortunately for Matt, Amy is very aware of his tricks to get what he wants. He's not very good at sneaking it, actually. And you could almost see Jeremy salivating at the idea of he and Audrey just sliding into that big, beautiful home with no effort, except that they would then be owned by Matt. I am glad Audrey wasn't there for that conversation; she would never be able to hide her excitement that she and Jeremy were going to realize their $$ goal of getting their hands on a piece of that farm.

You know, now that you bring it up, I'm not sure Matt would "own" Jeremy and Audrey, but maybe the other way around? Jeremy is very much aware that his dad's health is not great (maybe never has been), and that once Matt can no longer even sit at his desk in his office, Jeremy would be in complete control. I just hope that when that time comes, Matt would at least have a nurse or someone skilled to take care of his healthcare needs. My fingers are crossed that he's looked that far ahead and has planned for that situation. I can't picture Audrey taking care of Matt for hours on end, daily.

I wonder what Molly and Jacob think of this potential plan to take over Amy's house? I know they're not interested in the farm, but this is Amy's house we're talking about here. I know if one of my siblings wanted to do that to my parents, I'd be fighting them tooth and nail, in any way possible. Luckily, my siblings and I don't feel our parents owe us a home....

Well Amy just needs to figure out where she's going to live if she's starting to date and bringing home men or a man. Just seems odd she'll be having sex with another man in their home. Just seems disrespectful

How is it disrespectful? They are divorced. She is not cheating on her husband. Many divorced couples one person remains in the house. It's not their home. The kids are grown up and on their own. The house is hers to use how she chooses. I am sure Jacob and Molly would be happy to have mom stay do when they come for the holidays, they can be there with her.

I notice Jeremy said the farm was for the two oldest. He specifically left out his siblings. He doesn't care about them. And the fact they will all inherit part of it.

He shouldn't need his mothers house. Or daddy to build him one. He has show money. Zach bought his own house. Did Jeremy spend all of his on tight pants? They rent. He has a beat down car.

Haha! Good one. About the car, it could be that it is a hipster type of thing to drive.

Who in the H e l l said she would be having sex, I know this is America, but dude show some respect on that at least

It was Zak who went through the last surgery process with Matt. Jeremy may finagle for control but I think Matts interests are better served by Zak.
