The second edition of the dark anthology series is drawing to its season finale and is getting as dramatic as ever! From freak accidents to murder attempts to deadly secrets of the past, and much more, the twisted psychological thriller is not leaving any ingredient that can keep you on the edge of your seat.

For weeks now, we have been seeing the young pop star, Ashley Rose, living constantly in the fear of being attacked. As if her random car blast was not enough to put her into seclusion for months, now she is even facing danger from anonymous attackers right inside her home!

Despite all attempts from her love interest and security official, Beau Morris and his father, Ashley has been the victim of a fan’s sick obsessions. And now, as she finally manages to come out of hiding and face the world once again, we see her at gunpoint. But who could be after her life and why?

The preview doesn’t show the face of her attacker but we can take an intelligent guess. In the last episode, the ending scenes showed us Taylor, a girl who appeared to be a random neighbor of a suspect, is, well, actually a suspect. As she crashes her car into Beau and the camera then takes us into her hideout, showing us a detailed layout of the Pruitt family tree, we become sure that she could be after them. But whether she is an executor of a big plan or the mastermind herself is something we need to discover in the coming episode.

On the other side, there’s Maddie Pruitt, who finally decides to face Tucker Reed, her fiancé, after he strangely breaks up with her over a phone call. She even encounters Olivia Moon, who tries to befriend her feigning as a client. Maddie would have probably never gone back to Tucker for answers, but when her partner and old friend, Brandon goes missing and his wife shows Maddie his text messages to Tucker, Maddie suspects foul play and decides to ask Tucker herself. And that’s where things start getting ugly.

At Tucker’s lake cabin, she sees Olivia (or Rachel as she introduced herself earlier that day) who spills the beans on her ‘perfect partner’ and how he kidnapped Olivia and other girls owing to his disturbed psyche. Even before Maddie processes all these, we see in the trailer that Olivia attacks her.

Is she planning to kill both Tucker and Maddie or is this to fulfill some dark, hedonistic desire that she has had for a while now? Perhaps, Olivia Moon is a psychologically challenged woman, quite like her captor Tucker and her reality is something that would shock us all in the upcoming chapters of her story.
