I personally don’t think the parents knew Alex and liz were in jail, I mean the two just walked out alone. The parents NEVER mentioned it. Also being caught with alcohol at a party was way way less then holding a gun in a robbery attempt!
I thought Diane and Phillip kicking Max out was way over the top. I agree Diane was the most clueless of the four parents. Seemed odd Diane wouldn’t talk sense into Phillip. But, the writers wanted Max out so he could come and go without the parents asking questions. Although they never seemed concerned s1 or s2 with all the overnight excursions!
Oh the scene with Jeff and the diary at the end.....
still cry every single time!!!
