We’re only two episodes in and I can’t shake the strong certainty that this is a season about power. Duke and Nathan were joined together to accept the grevous losses they both experienced. When Nathan had to bring Duke the bad news (news that he already knew internally) he risked having the Trouble damage him, so intent was he on helping Duke accept the truth about Jennifer. This wasn’t without a healthy dose of irony given Nathan’s refusal to accept that Audrey, as he knew and loved her, is gone, leaving a destructive monster in her place. Duke can accept reality no matter how harsh, Nathan can’t seem to. This doesn’t drive them apart, it binds them, making their every shifting and evolving relationship.
