I really feel Brian actually looked for arguments with them a lot of the time. I think his problem was with Helen, and he did not like that Helen had one person on her side (2 people including Harry, but Harry/Helen friendship has been cut)

I don't believe they 'tagteamed' Brian, because it was usually him and Helen arguing first, then Brian would bring Marc into it, then complain that they were both at him? Why involve Marc in that case then.

The only sympathy I have with Brian in this whole thing is that Helen took it way too far, and there is no denying that.

However, had she not gone that far in that one argument...I do think Brian would have left with egg on his face and a massive loss of popularity. He was actually lucky that he had an (a good) excuse to leave as his plan/obsession (I cannot decide if he planned to take on Helen all along or if the obsession just took over) was becoming more and more transparent. Even on here there were a load of people turning on him, but how HE behaved seemed to be completely erased from history the moment murder slash rapist crossed Helens vile lips.
