How quickly we forget. Nick is self loathing. He is selfish and impulsive.
If Dupree is smart he'll put that motion sensor activated camera back up in the Apartment at the Bar. Then we'll see for sure if Nick isn't up to his old tricks.

Yes Nick is selfish and impulsive - characteristics which are the hallmarks of most youngsters in his age group.

I feel that the kiss in front of Dupree’s colleagues was a deliberate act to out Dupree in front of them, but that’s just my opinion. But it looks like this relationship between Dupree and Nick is done deal so I guess I have to accept it, I just hope he can really stick to his promise; but, honestly, judging from his reaction/thought when he first met Ellery, I doubt he can stay celibate for long. I hope Ellery will hang around Red Stallion more to get a better idea if Nick is a good partner to Dupree.
I totally agree with you, David except for the camera which is an infringement of privacy.
And, no, I don’t think all youngsters are selfish and impulsive.

Well Nick better not be completely stupid---as Ellery already outlined what correct behavior would be, and what is NOT going to be tolerated, and that there will be NO second chances---either he is shaped up as far as the bar and the patrons are concerned or he is out on his ear!! And I don't see Ellery backing down off any of those rules, so young and impulsive better be for another time and another place or Nicky won't have a place, and will have lost his place in their time too.
the navy must have given Nick SOME discipline somewhere within his person, and he better get it out and polish it up or he will wreck everything he wanted.

I think Jo said "most youngsters in his age group" not all of them .. :)
Nick has been given a chance. I am happy he was not kicked to the curb and run out of town.
He has growing up to do, he is needy and insecure on many levels .. yet I am proud of Jeremy for giving him a shot.
I sure hope Nick doesn't fuck it up, although I know that he cannot change overnight.
I am eager to see how he makes a go of the new job/apartment.
