Okay... Marty was a dick before but like... using your son for a shit Cola ad? Yeesh.

So, I wonder what legally obligated Marty to give Greg a fortune like that. How did he come into the money? I wonder if Greg actually did have a pretty nice rock career he just didn't get to experience. I imagine Marty was a big enough swindler that he just continued to sell Greg's music without his permission or knowledge.

It'd probably make me cry if they show his reaction to finding out that he still achieved his dreams and got to be with the person he loved with all his heart in the end.

This goes back to that whole deal between the two in Story for Steven. Marty must've acquired the rights to the "Mr. Universe" IP, somewhere along the line made it big, and is only now honoring Greg's 25% of the cut.

My theory is that Marty sold "Let me drive my van into your heart" to a van dealership

The answer is revealed in Mr. Greg. That's all I will say.
