Dan and Deb got married because Deb told Dan who was about to leave, so Dan chose to stay because Deb could give him the satisfaction of money and power. Dan made Deb like him because he was such a good athlete, and Deb didn't know he was running away from the basketball court. This had a big impact on Deb's later doubts about his original intentions. But is such a lie comparable to years of affection?

Dan and Karen, since Karen is essentially a manipulative person like Dan, she wants to get revenge on the person who cheated on her feelings, and to protect her son. However, she couldn't fully tell Lucas why she chose to give birth to him in the first place, which kept Lucas in a situation where he was always an illegitimate child, and he couldn't fully trust himself. This is another pain.

Nathon and Haley, there are too many people who like N, because he is willing to change himself and abandon evil to good, but when he first asked Haley, he also wanted to make trouble for Lucas, but he couldn't control himself in the end. In the second season, he and Haley said: If you leave, then, our deal is done. His wavering makes people feel that his original intention is reproduced, and the lie will always be exposed.

The bisexual girl in the second season, she said a word that pointed out the key point of the characters in that season, which is the fear of admitting who she is. Haley has the courage to admit his dream. Lucas bravely confronts and challenges his vicious father. It is only by facing up to one's emotions that one can obtain liberation.
