At Christmas Max was all ‘I believe in you’. When it came to the crunch he abandoned her. Compare that to Alex who, when she tells him about Max and he doesn’t believe, but he’ll accept her and be there for her anyway.
Alex: Well, part of me, uh...part of me feels like you've gone insane, and the other part of me feels like I want some of the massive doses of hallucinogens you've obviously been taking. But...I don't believe in aliens. Liz: Neither did I...you don't believe me, do you? Alex: I believe that you believe. Leave it at that. Liz: Ok. (Alex and Liz hug) Alex: Get home safe.

MAX: Liz, the way you're going about doing this isn't safe. Talking to people at school, asking questions. Whenever we decided to do something, we always decided as a group. LIZ: Do you believe me... about Alex? MAX: No. LIZ: Well, then we can't act as a group right now, Max. [She walks away.]
