Emily is initially reluctant to trust him and tries to repulse him through intimidation or use of force. Over time, however, she accepts his involvement in her activities. Nolan is Emily 's first port of call when she needs a computer or cell phone hacked, an anonymous email sent, something decrypted, or something doctored. Their relationship develops to the point that in Season 3, Emily buys Nolan a new house and Nolan walks Emily down the aisle at her wedding.

He had a brief relationship with Tyler Barrol in the first season, with his new CFO, Padma Lahari, in the second season, and with Patrick Osbourne, Victoria 's illegitimate son, in the third season. Although Ashley has made it a priority to get closer to rich men and women, she and Nolan can not tolerate each other ; she sums up her opinion of him as a `` perennial pain in the arse '' while he calls her `` fun police ''.
