Maybe, but he has otherwise been a flat and otherwise unengaging character aside from that rivalry and a few zingers here and there. Their last minute efforts to give him a conflict with Cameron and even sympathy with his dad not even looking his direction felt forced as far as he himself was concerned. His rivalry with Jo is all he's got, and Jo's the more interesting half of that conflict.

Yeah seriously, Scott isn't that great a character, and I don't understand his newfound popularity. He really doesn't add anything to TDAS and his merits as a villain from ROTI are not there in that season. I too am unsure what you can do with him. and his weird pairup with Courtney is beyond forced and ultimately meaningless. I hate throwaway elements like that, they just steal screentime away from more interesting and better written subplots. And as for those other guys, well it still makes sense to bring them back as they are clearly popular characters in the fandom at large, my confusion is why these writers either don't want to take advantage of that or just don't recognize it altogether. I don't think I'll ever understand their approach to things like that.
