Additional Comments: I am relatively new to watching, but in the past year I have not seen him do anything normal. He always acts like people I have known who either have brain damage or are intellectually challenged from birth. I can't figure out why his kids/friends talk to him like he's got good sense. His behavior is erratic and confused. Yet, he is supposed to be the patriarch of a wealthy family. I just don't get it.

I think that is part of the reason for some of the speculation that it was actually Adam who was killed & that this is really Stuart we are seeing. Stuart occasionally would impersonate his brother, but not for long stretches or during such emotionally charged times.

I was thinking this as well but then became sure that this is, indeed, Adam we're seeing and not Stuart. MM

Ever since Adam accidentally killed his brother he has been acting strange, partly because he could not recall all that happened the night Stuart was murdered. Now that he has remembered he killed his brother, he has allowed his psycho fiancée and his nephew convince him that it is better for him not to confess to a crime he committed ---------accidentally, because he was not in his right state of mind! Adam was under the influence of drugs when he shot his brother. Thus the courts would go very easy on him.

His fiancée and nephew have not considered the toll this bottled up guilt will wreak on Adam’s psyche as they only care about their damn butts, losing their life styles living off him as they could be hauled off to jail for accessory to murder after the fact, lying and covering up a crime.

Fiancée, Annie needs to have Adam out of prison so that she can marry him to have legal access to his money. Her latest lie (as far as she knows) is that she is pregnant with his child, the one thing she knows will keep Adam from confessing and continue to let a mother of two young children take the fall for his murder. And her plan worked as Adam smugly told Erica that he remembers everything but he intends to let Kendall continue to take the fall for Stuart’s murder. So yeah, Adam seems mental with crazy Annie by his side. But Adam’s guilt will eventually get the better of him unlike the two cold-hearted parasites he has around him, begging him to stuff down his guilt and get on with his life as if he did not kill the heart of his family.

I think they really care about Adam. Scott runs Chandler Co and would be in control of the money anyway and if Annie really just wanted the money she could marry Scott. Wouldn't be that hard since he lusts after her anyway. No I think they really love Adam, and the way Zach and gang have acted I wouldn't blame them to just keep letting idiot Kendall take the blame/j.

Y'all may be right. Actually, it would appear that nearly everyone has some sort of mental aberration of late.

Well for the past 6-7 months he has been drugged, harassed, bullied, tricked, spied on and what ever else Zach and the gang of vigilantes could do to him so it is no wonder he acts a little confused. Most people would be in the nut house by now. Adam has been strong considering, but it has taken a toil on him.
