They were taking Leo without Marlon's permission? Good that pearl spoke out. Laurel and marlon aren't innocent but nor are rhona and marlon. How did they still maintain their friendship after paddy got with rhona and all that mess? Maybe they should have got together. It was funny when they went with Jackson and Aaron to the bar. It's weird without Aaron there
Marlon ditched Leo for Laurel. He was excited about NZ until then. Now he's acting like they are abducting his child. Those writers are good at manipulating viewers' feelings by changing the characters behavior to make today's baddy look like tomorrow's victim.
To be fair, Marlon was never really excited to go, he resigned himself to it because they didn’t give him any other option. Laurel giving him an out only allowed him to be honest about what he truly wanted. He never wanted to third wheel across the country with Paddy and Rhona, give up his job, friends and family, they forced his hand. Also Paddy has no say about this, he is NOT Leo’s father. 🤦♀️
