First time watcher…

Currently on Season 9, Episode 6- vive la Roloff (episode where Matt joins the family 2 weeks late for a vacation in France.)

Obviously I know how this story ends- but I’m curious to know if those who watched the show in real time could see all of the cracks in the family? At what point could you see the writing on the wall?

Once Matt left the family vacation for a “pumpkin emergency”, I’ve side eyed him ever since. He’s shown little to no interest in the family and family activities since that moment and when he does join in, he ruins it all. If I was watching live, I think by this point it would be obvious they wouldn’t last much longer.
