In regards to Chelsea, the show has kind of done a disservice to her character since day 1, she almost feels like an afterthought to the writers most of the time. When compared to her contemporaries (Kat, Eva, Naomi), she's under written and under developed as a character.
There are moments I get excited when she finally gets some focus (the trople flirtation, the obsessed Allison arc, the hostage arc), but the show doesn't seem good at writing the aftermath of her brief arcs. The only thing I can assume is that Chelsea's lightening quick relationship and engagement with Madison is a form of PTSD, but she and Madison have gotten little development as a couple nor as individual characters.
Lynette was the sparkplug needed, but now that she's vanished.. the Hayler arc is stalled though at least her presence did reveal some of the motivation for Lia joining the ring (because all her money was stolen).
In regards to Nicole, she divorced Ted quickly without truly processing everything that had happened between them. Partly due to Nicole trying to be the sensible and logical Dupree and also to not be like her sister Dani, a doormat when it comes to Bill. Now that time has passed since the divorce, Nicole is now starting to process what she truly was feeling and I'm going to guess this will either be a way for to put her marriage to Ted in the past.. or the start of the two slowly working their way back to one another.
