‘MobLand's’ Hottest Theory: Is Eddie Really Conrad's Son?
Episode 8 of MobLand hinted at some game-changing revelations. What does Maeve’s remark about “the other brother” mean? Fans think it’s a hint that Eddit may be Conrad’s son, not Kevin’s. Let’s unpack this.
MobLand continues to give fans what they have wanted all along: shocking drama. Episode 8 of the series focused on the changes in the war between the Harrigans and the Stevensons, but the devil is in the details — in one particular detail, in fact.
The episode delves deep into the Harrigan family's internal dynamics. And one single comment made by Maeve is a trigger that sets Kevin on fire and can potentially ruin the Harrigan family for good.
Why Eddie Might Be Concrad’s Son?

Maeve tells Kevin that it’s either him or his brother who is the future of the Harrigans. And while Kevin corrects her, noting that Brendan is dead, she mischievously adds that she meant his "other brother." And that’s what immediately triggers Kevin, with him almost lashing out at Maeve.
Who was that "other brother" that Maeve references? Well, many fans now believe that it is in fact Eddie Harrigan, son of Kevin (duh) and Bella. And one of the main reasons to believe in that is the fact that it was Eddie who interrupted Maeve and Kevin in the moment when he was ready to bring her down.
Another important clue is the strained relationship between them. Eddie seems to have nothing but disdain for his father Kevin, and it appears that the feeling is mutual. They also don't resemble each other physically or emotionally. But Conrad does look and behave like Eddie a lot. Like father, like son?
Adding fuel to the fire is the fact that Bella was one of the young women who Conrad cheated on Maeve with. Of course it was before Kevin was forced by his father to marry her, but still, it seems like everything adds up.

So now this all is coming to Kevin’s mind, leading him to question the paternity of his own child. The revelation sends shockwaves, casting doubt on Eddie's true lineage and his position within the Harrigan legacy. It’s unclear, however, whether anyone but Maeve knows the truth, and whether she actually meant Eddie.
