Lynn has never given me the impression that she really understands the world around her. She invents hierarchies that do not exist, she labors against enemies and rivals that only exist inside her head, she thinks preverbal infants who only just barely aware they are aware have agendas and so on and so forth.
This is why she's a poor fit for any sort of public engagement. She's ignorant of her own ignorance and insists upon it. I guess that this is the real cause of her doubling down on her bullshit stories. Rather than admit that she can't or won't make sense of what she experiences in a manner that doesn't have her or someone she identifies with as an unfairly persecuted victim, she'll eventually have Five-O shoot her token gay friend for sport.
Also, Elly should not be especially surprised that Liz is leaving out details to mess with her. She burned a diary full of juvenile and comical twaddle that would have made Marian shrug instead of scandalizing her because she sees her mother as an enemy to placate.
She will be astonished because she's Lynn enough to think that screaming about buying eyeglasses in bulk and threatening mayhem because Liz didn't know that a window was open shouldn't make her someone her daughter fears.
Finally, Lynn probably wouldn't know what to do with Matt anyway. Remember the Mothers Know (That Stoop-Shouldered, Sunken-Chested Whiners That Are WAY Too High School Are THE ONE) business? Matt ought to have been the romantic false lead Paul Wright ended up being because he would have forced the Pattersons to crawl to his place like defeated supplicant.....I mean, have to listen to strange radio stations.......
