But this finale doesnt feature whatever worst-case scenarios we mightve imagined, and its great anyway.
But everything works out.
In fact, prom itself goes well for everyone who isnt named Tara.
Isaac starts reading a book about asexuality from the Pride section that he helped decorate in the library.
Even his begrudging tolerance of Nick has turned into a real friendship.
Often our least flattering moments are a manifestation of whatever we have going on.
Thats clearer to Tara than anyone.
She still cant get in touch with Darcy, making her the one person really suffering during prom.
At home, Darcy feels like a completely different person from the girl we know who seems so proudlyherself.
Tara knows the latter Darcy but not the former.
How can you tell someone you love them when they havent seen such a huge piece of you?
Of course, Tara would love Darcy no matter what her personality is like at home.
Charlie wants to be that person for Nick, in a way, even though hes younger.
But he also always forgets thatheneeds people looking out for him too.
Just because the bullying mostly stopped doesnt mean hes just fine now.
Going to prom confirmed for him that they could do this.
And now hes ending the night in his safe place, with the people he trusts the most.
What could go wrong?
And nothing does go wrong; thats the point.
More than anything else, its this moment that might seal the two boys love for each other.
Season two was mainly about a 16-year-old bisexual kid continuously coming out to practically everyone in his life.
Nobody is perfect, and no relationship is completely free of communication issues or mismatching timetables.
This show was a delight to write about, and Im looking forward to reading your reactions.
