12. Will Parenthood Change Joe And Love?

Short answer - No!

At the end of Season Two, Joe and Love had moved into a new home in the Californian Suburbs, and a pregnant Love is one of the last shots we see before the closing credits.

It is understandable if season three picks up right where we left off, but a time jump would give us insight into the way the new couple from hell handle being parents.

Considering Love was keen to have a child with her previous husband James, and Joe's voice-overs occasionally fantasize of having children with Love (and Beck), it might be safe to say both of them would enter parenthood with enthusiasm.

But given how the two handle love in the name of romance, it might be worrisome to imagine how they would handle love in the name of parenting. Joe in particular has a very distorted view of a perfect life, and children are impulsive and unpredictable; and an infant might not be all he imagined when he was stalking women between grocery aisles.

Likewise for Love; her psychopathic approach to getting what she wants, coupled with her own emotional abuse from her parents surely can't sit well for the future mother to be?
