It was written into an already inferior story, thereby making the story even worse. Obviously, this seeming contradiction is the result of GF III being a bad movie!

To be fair though, also written in was Auntie Connie's prodding that Michael pay attention to Vincent, as she apparently saw him as the second coming of her father.
