Oliver \u201crecognizes the damage he did,\u201d he said. \u201cHe is more cognizant of his own limitations at the beginning of the second season.\u201d Then he teased an event that will have a major impact on the on-again, off-again couple in the weeks to come \u2014 read on to hear what he had to say.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>TVLINE<\/strong> | <strong>I love Wolf and Nichols.<\/strong> <strong>At the start of the season, Nichols seems a little bit<\/strong> <strong>more understanding than maybe I expected him to be, coming off of Oliver\u2019s standing him up at the gala. But he\u2019s also putting pretty clear boundaries out there. Is Oliver cognizant of those boundaries? How is he feeling about Josh as we move forward?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>ZACHARY QUINTO<\/strong> | Well, it\u2019s not a clear situation. There\u2019s a lot of feelings that weren\u2019t fully explored. At the end of the first season, Oliver had a choice to make, right? Is he gonna show up for Josh and see where this new relationship is taking him? Or is he going to get pulled back into the gravitational force of his father? And obviously, that\u2019s what he chose at the end of the first season, and we see that didn\u2019t work out for him as well as he might have hoped. But you know, I think he recognizes the damage he did. He is more cognizant of his own limitations at the beginning of the second season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">There is an event that takes place that also radically changes the dynamic between Wolf and Josh on a daily basis at the hospital. So, the way that they interact, and the way that they strike a balance between their personal lives and their professional connection, is something that we really will explore a lot of in the first half of the season.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p><cite>Pief Weyman\/NBC<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">And, you know, to give them both credit, they are both adults. They\u2019re both professionals. They both care deeply about their work and their patients primarily, and I think that they can hold all of it, actually. Michael [Grassi, executive producer] has done a really beautiful job of creating these flawed and imperfect characters who are able to show up and be where they are with each other emotionally, and yet still not let it get in the way of providing the best care they can for their patients \u2014 and collaborating if and when they need to, which they do this season, quite a bit.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">You\u2019re gonna see a lot of interaction between Wolf and Nichols in terms of where their journey goes, as a couple. There\u2019s a lot to unpack.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>How are you feeling about Wolf and Nichols in Season 2?
