I've never been sure what Nightmare 2 is exactly trying to say. So was Jesse a homosexual struggling to come out of the closet, confused bisexual or a straight guy who's just afraid that he might be gay? Gay subtext is quite obvious but where it is supposed to go isn't. It's quite easy to read the steelworks final so that Jesse is actually straight/bi who turned his attention to men for a while out of fear of rejection by women. This would make sense given the school buss opening nightmare (girls laughing at Jesse) and his girlfriend's behavior during the steelworks finale. Anyway, it wasn't very well handled.
