I think honestly Greaseball and Dinah are actually an amazing couple, but most ppl only pay attention to the bad and fail to see that like. Yes they do break up and argue and stuff but the ending quite literally tells you that Greaseball is sorry for what he did and Dinah decides to forgive him for it.
Is Greaseball kind of an ass for pretty much the entire show? Yes, he is, but he's also an antagonist, it's kind of in the job description for him to not be the best person. He's not a great person at the start, but that's the point of his character.
The reason that he and Dinah split up (at least in most productions) is because she finds out that he's cheating at racing at she doesn't think that is okay, so he essentially says "we're done" and leaves her because he's too focused on competition, which is not a good thing, but it really highlights his character in my eyes because its sort of what makes you see how seriously he takes being champion. It's so ingrained in his head to win that he drops Dinah because she said "hey maybe don't cheat?" and it's supposed to make you upset at him because it isn't very kind, but it happens. It shows you that he's focused more on the race and being the best than literally anything else for nearly the entire show, which is IMPORTANT for his apology.
When he apologizes at the end, it may only be one word and he may make a mistake spelling it, but he apologizes. And you have to remember how they portray him as being very focused on being the best, being prideful in himself, believing himself to be above most others.
Him simply saying "sorry" is a MASSIVE act coming from Greaseball, especially after he outwardly acts like the most confident man on the planet, he's not the kind of guy to pour his heart out in a poetic apology because that's just not how Greaseball works. Could he give a lengthier and maybe more heartfelt apology? Yeah, probably, but in the moment that's the best he could do. And it is a big apology, coming from a guy like him.

question: do ppl ACTUALLY say things they don’t mean when they’re angry? or is that just an excuse after letting something true slip? i wouldn’t ever say something i don’t mean in anger, so the concept confuses me.
but something was said to me that is bothering me, though apparently was said in an argument and wasn’t meant. but i don’t rlly believe it wasn’t like, deep down true thoughts/feelings??? anyone have any insight? anyone say things they don’t mean in anger?
EDIT: this was a hastily worded post that i didn’t expect to get notes. this is a genuine question asked in good faith that i got a lot of amazing answers to!
also re: the many ppl saying “OP is lying about not saying things they don’t mean in anger because everyone does it”— i genuinely have never done that. if i say something mean while angry, i meant it. that’s literally why i asked this question and why the concept confuses me, because i wouldn’t do something like that so i wanted perspective from people who do it. idk why y’all can’t believe that lmao not everyone is as prone to anger and outbursts

It's the first time Alex has seen Henry in person since the weekend in London and the weird in-jokes and late night phone calls that came after, and it almost feels like meeting a new person.
