Our Take On Doctor Odyssey’s Love Triangle
It’s Not About Making A Decision
One thing that separatesDoctor Odyssey’s love triangle from other series is how unconventional it has been. InTV shows likeGrey’s Anatomy, a love triangle seems more about choosing one over the other. However, this may not be the case in the Jackson-led cruise ship series. Viewers have been waiting to know who the father of Avery’s baby is, but the reveal itself is far from the episode’s focus.
Even thoughDoctor Odysseycould end with season 1, it almost seems thatthe show doesn’t want Avery to make a choice.The official logline for episode 14 teases thatTristan and Max will again support Avery as she receives troublesome news. It’s unclear what she’ll find out, but it will bring the three even tighter together as a group despite Tristan and Max’s resistance against the idea of being in a throuple.
