Lots of people hate Nathan, and he has done some pretty bad things, but I just really love him. I quite like sulky characters sometimes, that might be part of it. But he is actually really beautiful sometimes (in my opinion) and clearly a bit mentally unstable, and I just LOVE HIM OH GOD.
His mum was just properly weird about the whole thing when she told him - it was the day after he'd had a horrible showdown with his dad's secret first/other wife during which he pretty much sexually assaulted her, which was awful, but his mum came back and he really was on the points of coming to terms with how bad that was ('maybe I did go a little bit too far'). Then she went nuts because he'd been showing someone around the woods where her husband was buried when she'd forbidden him to bring anyone to the grounds, and he realised something more than what she was saying was upsetting her, and he said to her that she could tell him what was wrong, no matter what it was, because she could trust him and he would help her. Then he asked if his dad had been back in touch, and said he wouldn't blame her, it was alright, and that he wanted to talk to him too. And then she told him his dad was dead, and lied that it was an accident, and he went a bit crazy and ended up in the woods digging in the soil with his bare hands, and he wanted her to go to the police, and she wouldn't, she properly said something like 'stop talking nonsense'. And he could clearly tell that it hadn't been an accident, and she just properly never seemed to even consider the idea of going to the police, even though she'd just told her kid that his dad was dead and she had killed him, and if he helped her to cover it up he'd have to lie about it to his brother and sister, and it was just horrible, honestly. I can completely understand him being even more fucked up than before, and a bit angry about her suddenly having a new boyfriend, given that all of that happened.
I hope they adopt Lenny, I love the fact that different doctors are mentoring the F2s and that actually means something, and there's sort of an emotional bond there. And Nick pushing Zoe to have children when she is clearly not that interested (or is saying she isn't - she did want kids before, when she found out she was infertile, didn't she, but she's telling Nick she doesn't) is pretty horrible. They could solve all their problems in one go. I would also like Toby back, but sadly I think it's more likely that we'll see more of the counsellor like we have been doing, given that his actor and Ruth's actor are seeing each other. Hmph.
