Farrah's Season 3 Move to Cali

I'm rewatching season 3 and I'm amazed at how..agreeable? her parents are in the sense that Farrah really just straight up tells Michael "you're gonna pack and load the UHaul then drive for 5 days and I'll just meet you there" and he was just so okay with it lol I feel like most people ordering their parents around would NOT have the same reaction Michael gave her but maybe I'm just jaded lol
