![]() Nate wants complete control of Maddy, her love, her innocence, he wants everything he believes about her to be true. ![]() They’re together, and their love is a twisted type. Of course, they can’t follow these rules. Her family wants to press charges against Nate, and they’re told to stay away from one another. He strangles her–not to death–we all know Maddy is still among the living, but enough to leave bruises around her neck. Maddy has a mind of her own and doesn’t take kindly to this and creates a scene. Later in the season, he sees that she’s promiscuous, she shows up dressed inappropriately. This, of course, is another lie told by Maddy. He saw Maddy as perfect, he saw her as pure and innocent. Everything in Nate’s life must be perfect. He’s overwhelmed with the idea that everything he has to do needs to be perfect. This has been passed through generations in his family. Violence seemed to be the only way to do it. In Nate’s eyes, he’s done what he had to do. Eventually, after breaking into his apartment, Nate beats the guy, almost in a way that should be considered torture. He manages to find the “culprit” and stalks outside his apartment. Maddy is aware of everything that transpired that night, yet she doesn’t accept responsibility for her role in it.Īfter claiming she was blacked out, Nate insists that it should be considered rape. Maddy later claims she was blacked out, she doesn’t remember doing this. They may have broken up, but it’s almost as if he views her as property. She has sex with another guy in a pool at Nate’s party. He believes her to be pure and much more innocent than we know she is. In one of the first scenes when we see Nate’s temper come out, it’s due to Maddy. Courtesy of HBOĭoes Maddy deserve his frustration? Not the way he takes it out on her, but she does seem to do things to intentionally upset him. He’s frustrated with his father, his sexuality, his relationship, he’s frustrated with Maddy. ![]() Nate has his own issues, he seems confused, frustrated with his own existence. In Euphoria, Nate and Maddy have the potential to be that popular, powerful couple–if only their relationship weren’t so complex. We’re sure people may remember a certain couple at school, who was referred to as the “power couple.” That would probably be the best way to phrase it. Who had the perfect life in high school? None of us, that’s for sure. None of the characters are perfect–they’re high school students. We’re following the lives of several different characters that are all going through their own trauma. Warning: Euphoria contains violence, extreme sexual content, drug abuse and other material that may not be suitable for everyone, so please be cautious before reading on.
