As the title suggests, 'Hard Decisions' hints at some pretty complex times for Leah (Courtney Nichole) and Jeremy (Ni'am Lynn). The previous Episode 11, 'A Lamb for Slaughter', of the debut season is described as troubling times for the recently broke couple with their two kids Phillip (Alex Henderson) and Sandra (Taylor Buck) leaving the titular facility without informing them.

The two could be out anywhere in a city that they aren't even fully versed with and that's worrying enough for their parents, but if they really have run away from home without informing the parents, will Leah and Jeremy take the ultimate call of moving back?

In the past, Phillip and Sandra have rebelled a lot. This whole disappearing from the facility could be an act of rebellion too considering their stay in Georgia is getting more and more permanent. With Jeremy and Leah opening up about the seriousness of their stay and getting the kids enrolled in school, Sandra and Phillip are starting to understand this is no joke anymore.

The stay is more solidified now, so it makes sense they would rebel and run away from home to teach their parents a lesson. Plus Sandra too has been rebellious in terms of her crush on that much older bus driver and if that isn't rebelling... 

So given these outrageous behaviors, looks like Jeremy and Leah will have to take the hard call of moving back home. True, Jeremy lost his job, and coming back home was the last resort because he had an inheritance waiting for him. But back home, Grandpa Vinny (J Anthony Brown) had used up all of his inheritance to buy the assisted living facility that he won't even agree to renovate right now.

So with the money gone, Jeremy doesn't really have any reason to stick around, except for the fact that Mr. Brown (David Mann) and Cora (Tamela Mann) are now willing to buy 50% of the share of the property. But again, Grandpa Vinny keeps opposing that so things don't really look worthwhile for Jeremy and Leah in Georgia. Perhaps just to maintain peace within their family of four, they might move back.

Tyler Perry's 'Assisted Living' airs double episodes every Wednesday from 9 to 10 pm on BET.
