JJ doesn't have a cheery personality. More often than not, he looks
troubled. Any deviation from this flat-line norm would likely be
darker. If he suddenly became a party animal, that would be dark...
for him.

Since this is a drama, it would be peculiar if he returned unchanged.
People will certainly be looking at him differently.

Side question: I didn't watch the opening five or so episodes. One
thing I've noticed is the absence of references to drugs. In the first
season Helen went to a folk concert at the bookstore and a joint was
passed around. As far as I know, that's been it.
