Max is supposed to be a king. He's supposed to protect The Royal Four, yet he was such a wimp through the whole thing because he was a sick puppy for Liz. If this were reality they would have all been in the white room a long time ago because no one listened to him, they did not stick together, they weren't united and they continued to break rank. So, it made no sense. Liz was selfish to never think of this and Tess was always loyal. Had she never been loyal it would not have mattered. With them so divided the show could really go no where. With Michael and Izzy never listening to him either it would have never worked. It's about time he laid down the law (alien law) and also reunited with his wife. They all have different powers, so they only work well together.
