I think the only thing I might argue with is Tracy/Nathan. 1) Nathan is a politician. Even though he has a family and apparently found God for about five minutes, there is that horrible, intrinsic trait of so many male politicos to cheat and fuck whomever they choose. If anything, I think Nathan's characterization is MORE realistic than ever, when compared to RL politicians.
As for Tracy, her world has been turned upside down in a matter of days. Learning you were a triplet injected with powers that can kill people can do a number on a person, haha. And people deal with trauma in varying ways - I think she's escaping hers by sleeping around. She needs to be protected, and so she finds that solace in the beds of powerful men.
