#or the show making it so that it’s clear it’s a steppingstone to la home ownership for Eddie and buck down the line

[stagefoureddiediaz]

Something something about renting and leases and being single v home ownership and endgame relationships and that owning only goes well if it’s as a couple.

Buck - renting his loft and is about to be subletting Eddie’s house

Bathena own their home (well the land at the moment but the previous house was owned and the new one will be)

Henren own their home

Madney we’re both renting but moved into a owned home when they came back together (I guess technically we don’t know if Chim owned or rented his apartment but the fact the buckleys provided the down payment on the new house implies he was renting)

And then we have Eddie - who owned the house into Paso when he was married to Shannon but is renting a house in LA but who is now seemingly buying a house in El Paso while subletting his LA rental house. And that’s kind of wild - because he will be both owning and technically renting at the same time.

But he’s buying a fixer upper and it’s being heavily implied by the subtext of the show and the interviews that fixing it up is not going to go well - that it’s going to cause problems - because he’s trying to do it alone rather than in an endgame relationship.

And it’s something to do with trying to recreate some version his life in El Paso - what he had with Shannon there because her ghost is still haunting the narrative (I will laugh if they go down the road of having Eddie’s house be haunted but Eddie won’t contemplate that because he doesn’t believe) all while technically still being tied to LA - representing his singleness.

And I think that is very interesting
