I can understand the power grab but Sage is a senior, she's on her way out anyway. I guess they couldn't just let her finish her final year. Savages. xDSome sort of power grab for them? or getting Sage out of the picture. I felt sorry for Sage in this update I've said to others it looks as though Chad is just using her and these so called friends around her are in some way plotting against her. Either way I hope it all fails and Sage has the last laugh on them.
I always thought that was a given. Lynette's family did nothing for the MC throughout his life. They are blood related but were never there for him. They are family but not "family".That opening monologue might be more telling that it seemed at first read. I always looked at it as being about the DIKs and other people he would meet at college and how they will become his new family, but there are parts that could also refer to the possible lineage of his Mom.
"Family. My Dad once told me family was more than blood relations. Being related doesn't necessarily make you family. Family are the people who support you in your choices. Family will help you grow. Family doesn't give up on you in times of need. Family are the ones who love you for you, whoever that may be. Even if you lose your family, or your family loses you. Don't stop. Find new ones to love and somwehere else to call home."
Since this is a retrospective monologue, it's possible these lines refer to the reveal about his Mom that we will get later and his dealings with the rich family that his Mom came from. Then there are those other lines later on that you pointed out:
"Either way, I was happy back then. We didn't have much, we...erm...we had enough."
Sounds like he's remembering a simpler time before he knew the truth and maybe even points to an issue with his Dad withholding the truth since he hesitates when talking about him, almost as if he was about to say what their relationship was like back then compared what it's like when he's giving this monologue.
Also, I'm optimistic MC inadvertently ran into his grandad who he obviously is not aware of at the party. Reusing Lynette's dad's suit for a character at the party and the MC eavesdropping on that conversation for a good while isn't random coincidence.
