Their relationship is a little surprising, considering that Chris
seems to have little patience for Kal's in-the-closet paranoia.
"I think that in the lawyer community, being gay probably
isn't a cakewalk for him [either]," he says. "He can probably
sense overcompensation."
As we've seen, Kal has slowly opened up as
their relationship progresses, so now that his
father is in the hospital after suffering a
stroke, he might not be too tough or proud to
seek comfort from the man he loves.
