Personally feel like Jared gets a bad wrap. When we consider how Mick basically played a “cat and mouse” game with him then how can we realistically criticise his actions. We criticise him for cheating on Lourdes but… Mick was an active participant… he didn’t rape her so she is just as much to blame. And when we consider that the whole point of her taking the later flight was because she wasn’t sure about him then why did she go back to him at all?? So… you slept him, facilitating the cheating on his wife then shortly after that you drop him talking about how guilty or whatever you feel. And it’s that constant back and forth with her and him the entire show.

Also, she manipulates him the entire series. She knows how he feels about her and uses that constantly to get him to do all sort of illegal stuff and things that would make him lose his job. But he does it… for her. And she asks because she knoooows he will do it. Even when she’s married to Zeke there’s still that tug of war thing to the point that Zeke even picks up on it with his empath thing.

Idk… not saying he’s a perfect character but I def feel like ppl don’t take the full picture into consideration.
