Nate won’t be a villain in Season 3
Fezco: He might have wanted revenge for that public beating from Fez, but since Fez is most likely dead, Nate has nothing left to pursue there.
Jules: He apologized to her and gave her the disc. Originally, he did everything to protect Cal, but now that he’s turned Cal in, he has no reason to be involved with Jules anymore. However, if he still has feelings for her, that could change things.
Cal: Arrested.
Rue: Since Nate is no longer involved with Jules or Fez, his rivalry with Rue is effectively over.
Maddy: He said his goodbyes to her. The only way she could come back into his life is if she reports him for abuse, but that seems unlikely.
Cassie: He broke up with her, but will he go back? If he does, Cassie is far more submissive than Maddy, unlike Maddy she wouldn’t fight back, which means she wouldn’t provoke Nate’s anger the same way.
Lexi: She’s the only one who publicly humiliated him with her play, so she could be a target for revenge. But since there’s a time jump, it seems unlikely that he’d still care about getting back at her over a high school play.
Ethan: He’s not returning, but even if he did, his situation is similar to Lexi’s, there’s no real reason for Nate to bother with him.
Only threat to Nate in my opinion can be Cal, Tyler and Maddy as of now but odds are in Nate’s favour. What you guys think?
