I went back and watched some of the episodes from season 4 on YouTube and watched some of the other seasons as well, and I began to notice a pattern. Nathan would get hurt in a small minor way first, and then Lucas would get hurt even worse. Take season 1 for example; Nathan blacks out due to using Speed, four episodes later, Lucas nearly DIES because of a car accident he was in. Yeah, Nathan was out for like half an hour, but Lucas was almost dead. Then, in season two, yeah, Nathan has a small brush with death in the racecar accident, but then Lucas finds out he has HCM, which is potentially fatal and he chooses to ignore it. I personally think that HCM is worse than being in a minor car accident. And let's take season three. Haley, the girl of Nathan's dreams, comes back and they get remarried at the end of the season. They go through a rough patch, but that's nothing stacked up against Lucas's problems throughout the season. He has to quit basketball because of his HCM AND his uncle is killed by his father (even though he didn't find that out yet). Okay, so it was Nathan's uncle too, but Lucas was closer to Keith than Nathan ever was. Then Lucas had to deal with his mom blaming him and everything, and wala, Nathan and Haley fall back in love. Now on to season 4, Nathan has a strange moment in the first epsiode where he saves his other Uncle, Cooper, and Rachael Gatina. But then, eight episodes later, because of Nathan's money problems, Haley gets hit by a car and Lucas collapses because of a heart attack. Lucas nearly DIES yet again, and Nathan stresses out over it. Okay, so in this case, Nathan has it worse than Lucas in someways, but in other ways it's easier. One, Nathan didn't have to go through the heart attack, but he did have to watch it happen and watch his wife get hit by a car.
Sorry if I sound like I am dissing on Nathan, I'm not really. Nathan is my second favorite character, next to Lucas of course. I just want to know why is it that Mark Schwan always insists on beating up on Lucas.
