1. He suddenly appears where Suri (our MC) appears it is as if he knows where she is
2. Him being quiet feels like he's observing her actions
3. And then supports her if needed like the one she made the decision of kicking out the relative.
@bobsburgers if you're going to switch it up with the bucci gang, you should probably make plans for particular chapters. No one wants to see anyone's hard work go to waste!
I think him appearing is just a coincidence. I don't think he would have taken the time to remember exactly what Suri was doing at all times in the original timeline, especially considering how he hated her. And even if he did, since she is doing things differently this time she wouldn't be in the same places anyways.
