In season 2 of the NBC musical dramedy, the first three episodes have been quite the emotional roller coaster for Zoey Jane Levy as she grieves the death of her father, Mitch Peter Gallagher. It's also been a wild ride for viewers, as Zoey and Max Skylar Astin got together in the premiere , finally slept together in episode 2 , and ended things for now! Max understood and agreed with her decision, so by the end of the episode they put their relationship on pause. While that means they're no longer together, it doesn't mean there isn't hope for them in the future. It's both a testament to how deeply she feels about him, but also it's unfortunate that she does feel so strongly because she doesn't want to mess it up. This might not be the news that fans of Zoey and Max's relationship want to hear, but Astin says that ultimately it's a good thing. Describing this pause as an adult decision is spot-on, because on paper Max and Zoey breaking up so quickly after getting together could have been played for shock value.
