"Speaking of not making much sense, did I happen to mention that the whole Bree Buckley thing was dumb? Bree Buckley wasn’t a Southern Belle who used to be a man. Bree Buckley wasn’t trying to marry Nate because her family was broke. Bree Buckley, a short-term supporting character, was just there to find another short-term supporting character and then walk away."
