Haha, it's a good reference! It's cute, and kinda grounds the story. I guess nobody ever changes, at least not at their core :p

It adds all the more to his relationship with Nicole. Kind of a balance, she keeps him in check. It's healthy for him; he's able to surpass his problems without 100% depending on her, but she still is there just to make sure he doesn't slip up once again.

That was also a nice touch. Real sign of maturity; that they can move past their issues.
