Having grown up in a small nowhere and no-future town, where welfare, drugs, and alcoholism were the norm and not the exception, I'll say that the adage of "Once an addict, always an addict" is pretty spot-on; and it takes damn near illegal to criminal measures to "fix" someone. Addicts have one drive, to get/relive that high, and damn anything else. If they're so far gone, they won't respond to the cries of their family or loved ones, and if you're not willing to beat them into submission and lock them in a cage for a few months for a full detox, and then monitor them every single fucking day for the rest of their lives; if you're not willing to completely throw your life away to fix someone else, there is no cure.Nick lying to Kayla and saying April is gone while he secretly moved her to a place he's paying for so he can keep fucking her behind everyone's back would be the cherry on top.
Nick learned NOTHING
He doesn't think drugs are harmful
We already know what Nick thinks about his family, they won't pull him from the void; you either lock him up to where his life is controlled and he can't get high, or you go with Chairman Mao, and maybe the one thing he was right about, there's no fixing an addict, and you put them down.
