We're sweating...
'Insecure' is finally back. The award-winning HBO comedy returned with its third season last night and it was everything that we wanted and more. Not only is it as funny and touching as ever but it also gives us a chance to find out what's happened to Issa since Season 2 ended. Last we saw of her, she was moving in with Daniel (her entire apartment block was evicted) and we've been dying to know what's happened since.

Season 2 opens with Issa still sleeping on Daniel's couch (the two ended their relationship last series and haven't rekindled it since) and working in a new job. She has taken on work as a Lyft driver to help make up for the fact that she now makes less at We Got Y'All. Most of the episode takes place in Issa's car, as she drives passengers from place to place but there is one passenger who is on everyone's minds: Nathan.
Nathan is played by Kendrick Sampson (the beloved actor who turned heads in 2015 in his recurring role as Caleb in How to Get Away with Murder Season 2). We first see Nathan after Issa is caught in a predicament. Daniel is entertaining a guest so she can't go back to his place. Instead, she decides to do a Lyft run and invites Molly to join her. Nathan appears soon after as a passenger.
All is going well, initially. Issa and Nathan even flirt. However, things take a turn when another guy joins the journey and lights a joint in the car. Issa asks him not to but he ignores her. Nathan then beats up the guy (incredible) but worried about being reprimanded for it, makes a run for it. Nevertheless, at the end of the episode we learn that he left Issa a $50 tip (amazing).
Unsurprisingly, fans are already obsessed with him and hoping that he will become a major part of the series.
Nathan dropped Issa a $50 tip? Forget Daniel and get you a real king.

Secure that man.
My guy Nathan tossed homie's blunt and gave him the hands in the backseat of the car. Then left a $50 tip for Issa. He's the MVP of this episode. #InsecureHBO

It's what he deserves.
Nathan might be the best Lyft rider ever. After beating up a fool who smoked without permission in her car, he then gives Issa a GIANT tip. #InsecureHBO

Maybe he is a little bit too generous.
Whew Nathan and his southern drawl are quite fine but I don’t trust light skinned men with light eyes so #InsecureHBO
