Reading the Keanu/Nick messages was an unsettling experience. All the hallmarks of Nick's history of lying, misrepresenting and gaslighting are in those messages. The whole idea of him speaking for April at such length is really not good. Nor is this whole thing of her being cut off from everyone she previously knew.
Nick's point of view is much as expected. Rather than seeing his actions as being the source of his problems, to Nick its the people who leaked information about him out of his compound that are the real problem. If that Damn Aaron in this case hadn't started sharing things, Nick is convinced that could have lied and bluffed his way out of any suggestion that he used coke ever.
To Nick, his reputation wasn't ruined by being arrested with 26g of coke. His reputation was ruined by Aaron being able to build a "hole" in his wall of lies about it.
Nick of course also is back to practicing the big lie. Nick knows everything and you know nothing. Nick would love to share the full "truth" with you, but he just can't. But someday in a distant future you will finally know the full truth which I guess will full exhonorate Nick and presumably put Aaron in prison forever. Its all so predictable.
There is also Nick pretending in an utterly cynical way that he is really on her side and wants April to talk to her. But no. It can't happen because she is so terribly damaged by these false accusations that she (April) used coke.
This messages overall suggest Nick and the situation in the house is really taking a bad turn. That Nick knows that his women are probably both serious dangers to leave him if they get into unsecured communications with outsiders. I would imagine he is gaslighting one or both about the likelyhood of either him or them going to prison if they make the slightest mistake or not listen to him. And if one or more of them are still using coke, there is going to massive paranoia just from that.
I'm almost certain that the lesson Nick has taken from the entire situation is that he needs to socially isolate all of them from any sort of community/friends/outsiders. That in the unlikely event that Nick would win the case, everyone (including the kids) would be locked down inside the house forever.
I also really wonder what Nick will do when he inevitably loses the case. He has never handled setbacks well and to be convicted would be an identity shattering moment for him likely. Look at what the Eric July stream did to him. Look what losing a close decision on the appeal case did to him. Any kind of loss for him is going to translate into a mental collapse and a run for the alcohol & the drugs.
