I don’t think that Michael loves Maria the way that he loves Alex, but I do think that he’s making a choice about the life that he wants and the way that he wants to feel.
Yeah, I think they’re on a journey that will bring them back to each other in a lot of different ways over the course of the series.
Hopefully we get to dig a lot more into Alex’s family next season — if we get it.
Things with Alex are extremely fraught; he’s tied to a lot of pain in Michael’s life.
