Lucy's Future Boyfriend in Tell Me Lies Explained
Tell Me Lies Season 2, Episode 3 confirmed that Lucy ends up with Max in the 2015 timeline.
Season 1, Episode 1 introduced Max (Edmund Donovan) as Lucy's boyfriend before things between her and Stephen get pushed into the forefront.
The pair first met in the latter's freshman year of college. During that time, she has yet to move on from her ex-boyfriend.
Unlike Lucy who is a total emotional wreck, Max is stable and genuinely cares for her when they are together.
Max and Lucy eventually stayed in touch, with them ultimately finding themselves back together at some point before the 2015 timeline.
Max's Presence in Tell Me Lies Season 2 Explained
While the college timeline of Tell Me Lies Season 2 pairs together Lucy and her new love interest, Leo (Thomas Doherty), the 2015 timeline slowly unpacks the truth that Grace Van Patten's protagonist is happy with Max.
It is revealed that her experience with Stephen and Leo combined with the strong connections she forged with her friends Bree and Pippa allowed her to learn the importance of developing a stable and abuse-free relationship.
This paves the way for her to learn these lessons and apply them to Max, considering that she seems happy when viewers catch up with her in the 2015 timeline.
In Season 2, Episode 3, Lucy and Max attend Bree's (Catherine Missal) and Evan's (Branden Cook) joint bachelor and bachelorette party.
Max and Stephen catch up during the event and they appear friendly and close to each other. Lucy is annoyed by it, possibly mainly due to her strained past with Stephen.
Despite that, Max tells her that what Stephen did doesn't matter because it's all in the past.
As the season progresses, there is a good chance that more of Lucy and Max's history will be showcased to allow fans to unpack how the pair ended up together and how Stephen could be tied to it all.
Tell Me Lies Seasons 1 and 2 are streaming on Hulu.
