Does Cole care about Chris?

Re: Does Coleslaw care about Chris?

Or will he show up for his share of the vast Chandler fortune whatever is left of the proceeds of 14BLC after probate sells it off, thereby taking his share of vidya money from the mouth of dear Christian?

What are the odds she's left him anything? It seems more likely she'll leave everything she has to Chrissy-poo.

The real question is, what are the odds she left anyone anything?

I don't see Barb as being forward thinking enough to make out a will. And even if there is a will somewhere buried in the hoard, will anyone be able to find it? Most jurisdictions require the original will, signed and witnessed, not a copy and certainly not what some autistic manbaby assures them is in it.

In cases where there isn't a will the probate court will appoint an administrator for the disbursement of the estate from the distributees (heirs) who appear competent to do so. Usually the first one to apply. This will almost definitely not be Chris.

Cole could walk away with a tidy sum if he bothers to head on down to Virginia and do a little legwork to collect it.

The real question is, what are the odds she left anyone anything?

The land value alone for 14BLC is worth a trip to Virginia for Cole. He'd have to clear the house (and probably bulldoze it) to sell the property, and he shouldn't be too choosy about any offers that come in, but he could net a few $thousand or more out of the deal.

That is probably for the best who the hell would want to inherit the hoard anyways?

Re: Does Coleslaw care about Chris?

He obviously deeply resents Bob, and by extension Barb, and by extension Chris. I don't think he wants anything to do with either of them. He has his own life, and while he may be up his own ass, he's definitely not an idiot. He can see them for the disaster that they are, and he would have absolutely nothing to gain by reaching out to help them, ever.

Re: Does Coleslaw care about Chris?

It's a difficult situation under even the best of circumstances. Coleslaw is facing what many people with elderly parents face: his mother, who lives apart from him, is no longer fit to care for herself.

It's probably not so difficult a situation in Cole's case. Most people don't actively hate their mothers.

So you have a good point, it's extremely unlikely Coleslaw would be able to help the Chandlers in any way except to be their errand boy, and we all know that's not going to happen.

The kind of "help" the Chandlers want (demand) is exactly the kind of "help" they shouldn't get. The kind of help they actually need is the kind of help they will fight tooth and nail, whining and screaming, to avoid. At some point Cole would have to ask himself if it's really worth the struggle, and if he has bothered to go that far, he appears to have made the only sane choice: Stay the fuck away.

However, given that Coleslaw didn't go to Bob's funeral, and it doesn't sound like he's even visited in the last few years or even attended the trials... I fully expect that he won't see Barb again until she's in a pine box, holey buttocks or not. Barb's decline has been a long time coming, Coleslaw clearly doesn't give a shit.

He might mosey on down to Virgina for the small payout he has coming to him. I get the impression he does think he's owed something from Barb. Whether or not he's concerned about how taking his share of the estate will inconvenience Chris is probably a more apposite question for this thread.

I could be wrong on this but it seems like Chris really just tolerates the hoard. I can see him wanting the house and just dealing with the lovcraftian monster now fused with it.

He probably resents it, actually. I get the strong impression Chris tries to get away from the hoard at every opportunity. He doesn't want to be at 14BLC; he wants to be out and about being his own free bitch and finding his heartsweet. He must be going nuts with Barb keeping him on a short leash (for his own good - and hers).

It is true that he hates that hoard. He hates being forced to live in that disgusting trash pile. But once Barb goes, take a guess how much effort he'll go to to change it.

Re: Does Coleslaw care about Chris?

I always had the impression that Chris and Coleslaw's relationship was more like distant cousins than brothers. So I imagine that Coleslaw is all "NOPE" when it comes to Chris.

Re: Does Coleslaw care about Chris?

I really don't think Cole really cares about Chris at all. He certainly didn't respond to Chris's blasting him on Twitter, and I'm also sure that some ers tried to tell him about it.

Well obviously. But he'll stay away from it as much and as long as possible. He'll wander the streets of Ruckersville, loitering wherever there's free wifi, hanging out in bars until closing time desperate to stay away, before finally heading drunkenly home to crash into slumber before applying another layer of axe and heading out to do it all over. Every day. That's when the good people of Ruckersville will have to watch out.

It's the Chandler pets I truly feel sorry for. When Chris is finally free to get away from the hoard they will be even more neglected than ever.

When you think about it, Cole coming down to bulldoze and sell 14BLC and hand Chris a check for his share of the proceeds may be the kindest thing Cole could possibly do for Chris. Not that Chris will see it that way.

I just thought of this but how likely would it be that Chris tries to burn the house down after barb passes in order to get the insurance ? It is a common thing in TV shows after all. He could use the money to live in an apartment in Cville. until he gets caught for insurance fraud.

Not the kind of shows he watches. Insurance fraud is way over his head. In fact he probably only vaguely understands the concept of insurance to begin with.

Cole is the sibling we know the most, but what about Bob's other children? Will they try to get on the property (and Chris, I guess) after she kicks the bucket?

I don't give a squirt about the cats, but I feel so bad for those poor beagles. I love dogs.

I'm not a lawyer, but I don't see how they'd have any legal claim to any of the Chandler "estate". Bob either left everything to Barb in his will, or didn't have a will at all, in which case I'd think it would just become hers by default as his next of kin.

I think there was a mention of a last will reading, but is hard to say. Probably, it's all roting on a safety box somewhere in the hoard.

I thought perhaps they could claim it if Chris was declared unfit to take care of himself and they were appointed as some type of guardian figure.

Re: Does Coleslaw care about Chris?

Lets have hope and not assume Chris would not starve his dogs. He is not a cold hearted monster, and for all we know, those beagles are his only real joy in life, and he takes care of them the best that he can.
