Nate a goddamn supervillain
Nate really is on some Lex Luthor/ Victor Von Doom shyt.
The Nate as some sort of mastermind high school self styled cheap thriller suburban sociopath is ridiculous and the least interesting of the storylines.
Yes, this really is the worst part of the show for me. Nate just isn't smart enough to be pulling off these elaborate supervillain schemes that require having THREE different people lie to the cops for him on the same day. If even one of them doesn't cooperate, the whole thing collapses.
I just can't buy that the 22 year old man that he beat up (not raped) from the first episode would let himself get manipulated by some high school student. You'd have to be stupid to fall for that.
I also just can't believe that Jules would realistically believe that any one would charge her for child porno, when she's obviously underaged herself. So, instead she's going to commit a REAL crime by lying to the cops and sending some random guy to jail?
Nate's plan only works if he's confident enough to count on the people being manipulated to be a bunch of morons.
