In season 2, when Nate discovers that what he has is called AVM, he and Brenda go to the beach. When Brenda goes home and Nate is alone he imagines himself just swimming out to sea (a metaphor for his dying). In season 5, right before Nate flatlines, he and David seem to have this shared dream where he does exactly the same thing, swim out to sea, and the scene is shot the exact same way.

David tries it out for awhile, which surprises several other characters, and he eventually decides isn't for him.
Keith, though without the drugs and apparently without the promiscuity, as he is only ever seen with the man he is dating. Comforting the Widow. Cool Teacher: Olivier. Arguably a deconstruction, as Olivier does give good advice and tries to get his students to think outside of the box, but he is such a prick and the way he interacts with his students is often totally inappropriate. He eventually straightens out a bit though.
Corrupt Corporate Executive: Kroehner's. Crazy Jealous Guy: Brenda's brother took this to crazy stalkerish levels over her relationship with Nate, and Russell's behavior bordered on this at Claire's art exhibition at the end of season four. Watch The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas Online Free HD.
