Season One
Since the start of the show, Nate and Blair have tried and tried again to do the deed, only finally making love after the debutante ball.
Nate’s had to deal with his on-and-off relationship with Blair and overcoming his feelings for Serena, whom he’d lost his virginity to last year. He’s also had to deal with his parents pressuring him or pimping him actually back to Blair’s arms just so his father can seal Blair’s mother’s IPO financing deal. He later finds his dad taking coke and gets him arrested to teach him a lesson and make him grow up. Poor Nate — he seems to attract all kinds of trouble done to him even when he doesn’t have any vices himself. Nate Archibald in the book though was a pothead.
