You figure the kid’s dad will get full custody. It was set up that he had a great relationship with his dad and his girlfriend. The kid sees his dad a lot and he’s and involved father.

ROB IS NOT A GOOD GUY. He's the evil in the story. Being a junkie aside, he was jealous of Adele's wealth, and was actively lusting after a heterosexual man. You really need to read the book because you missed the point.
He was complicated. He genuinely loved Adele but loved her lifestyle more. The book also made clear that it was love/lust at first for Rob when he first saw David. Even more than the lifestyle he wanted HIM.

Why was Adele even in rehab after her parents’ death? How did she and David meet?

Secondly, once Rob took over Adele’s body, why did “Adele” act so different - cool, aloof, ladylike, etc. Rob’s personality was nothing like that. He was fun, irreverent, sassy. None of that came through in “Adele’s” body.
You can see at the end when they were in the car... I think s/he started off that way as Adele just as he is as Lou.... but as the behaviour escalated/possible signs of drug use, etc... I think it killed their marriage and as the Scots husband moved to exert more control it killed his/her spirit more until they were both just shells.... Rob can do the 'fun' part, but can't sustain normal relationships so it always degrades... an interesting premise.
Well, this can’t be right bc Rob tricked the spirit out of the body and completely overtook the body/shell with his own spirit. We saw the spirits of the women go elsewhere. It isn’t ask if, overtime, he takes them over more than more. His spirit inhabits the women’s bodies, completely, from the moment he took over their bodies. The women’s spirits were gone.

Enjoyable though, esp the last two episodes. They never tied up what happened after the girlfriend wrote the cop about the murder.
Why did Adele spit out the food she was eating (dinner)?
Why did Adele run around and get the black eye? Was she trying to get heroin? Was she trying to get beat up to make David look bad?
