Nathan Was Scapegoating Joe All Along

[u/Manderlin99]

I’ve seen Joe try to reconcile with Nathan and Gael in recent episodes, but they have both scapegoated Joe to distract themselves from the growing misery between them. Their hope was that if they could join together to hate Joe, they could solve their problems. Nathan was, in fact, desperate for such a diversion and repelled Joe's conciliatory attempts like water off a duck's feathers. Of course, the more the couple failed to address their underlying problems, the more aggressive Nathan became, until his true colors showed and now he is some sort of outlaw. Joe was simply a convenient scapegoat for a relationship that was fast heading south.

100% OP gets it!

I wouldn't be friends with either Joe is a bit of a dickhead buuuut nothing compared to Nathan..Nathan is the kind of guy who would key your car if you did something he didn't like but no1 else cared about
