Elliot brings chaos and mystery to season two and adds a competitive and playful dynamic to Rue and Jules's relationship. In the first episode of the season, Elliot tells Rue he doesn't think they're good for each other, and the episodes that follow prove he's right. From early on in the season, it's apparent Elliot's feelings for Rue go beyond their shared love of getting high, but even I didn't realise how deep his admiration goes until he shares an original song he wrote for Rue in the finale that essentially expresses his feelings for her and that he betrayed her in order to help her. Elliot seems to know the answer when he asks Rue if they can remain friends, but it's still sad to watch when they meet eyes from across the auditorium during the school play in the season finale, implying her answer is no.
