Patrick or Dr Chris? What's an obstetrician to do?

Patrick
So. Hands up if you watch Offspring. ME TOO! It lost me last year when Dr Chris took off with his ex but now, with saucy Patrick on the scene and Dr Chris returning to spice things up, I've been right back into it.
Dr Chris Havel
So when Nina and Dr Chris fell in love, last year, I was totally supportive of her going down that path but when he packed up and left, I lost interest and checked out. Offspring was no longer on my IQ list and no longer in my life. Now however, very different kettle of fish.

Patrick seems to me to be a very real character. He's had his troubles (drug addiction, broken marriage and very sadly he lost a baby). He's got stuff to share with Nina and Nina needs that. He also managed to forgive and understand Nina when she had to get her head straight about Dr Chris. Would she or wouldn't she go back to him? A sly pash, some longing glances and some pretty serious commitment talk from Dr Chris thankfully weren't enough to lure her back.
Bille and Nina Proudman
Don't get me wrong, I've got nothing against Dr Chris, I think he's a nice guy. But he had his chance people... and as they say, he blew it. Now it's Patrick's turn.

Incidentally, how great a couple are Billie and Mick? Love them.
