In the finale episode, Nick comes out as bisexual by posting a cute Instagram photo with Charlie. Although the pair appears content, Nick continues to worry about Charlie’s safety. Finally, Tao (Will Gao)  asks Elle (Yasmin Finneyto be his girlfriend, but when Darcy vanishes, Tara begins to worry about her.

The gang plans to have their own DIY house prom, where they can celebrate their freedom and happy times together. Nick comforts Charlie by listening to his worries and fears in the privacy of his bedroom while reassuring him that he doesn’t have to be flawless. Charlie shares his experiences with bullying and how it affected him. He acknowledges having self-harmed in the past but claims he has stopped.
