Contains spoilers for ‘The Signal’ Episode 2

BERLIN, GERMANY: Netflix has officially dropped all the episodes of ‘The Signal’, featuring Florian David Fitz, Peri Baumeister, Yuna Bennett, and Sheeba Chadha in pivotal roles.

In ‘The Signal’ Episode 1, viewers were given a glimpse into astronaut Paula's (Peri Baumeister) daily life aboard the International Space Station (ISS).

As Paula's aircraft descended towards Earth, carrying her back from her mission in space, air traffic controllers watched intently as it approached the landing zone.

However, Paula's aircraft suddenly vanished from the radar screens, leaving only confusion and chaos at the airport.

‘The Signal’ Episode 2 begins with the aftermath of Paula's disappearance, plunging her family and friends into a state of turmoil and grief.

Sven (Florian David Fitz), Paula’s husband, and their daughter Charlie (Yuna Bennett) experience a significant shift in their lives following Paula's disappearance.

They struggle to come to terms with the loss of their beloved wife and mother, grappling with the uncertainty of not knowing what happened to her.

On the other hand, the media speculates that Paula may be responsible for the mysterious vanishing and presumed accident of the aircraft.

The media's reaction to the situation escalates when a group of people, possibly influenced by the negative coverage, gather outside Sven's house and start throwing red paint at Sven and his family.

They shout accusations and insults, including calling Sven and his family "murderers." They further accuse Paula of killing other astronauts.

As media reports suggest that Paula deliberately caused the crash, Charlie finds herself in a state of disbelief and denial.

Hope fades as Paula's whereabouts remain unknown in 'The Signal' Episode 2

As the search for Paula intensifies, the authorities are faced with a baffling mystery. Despite their best efforts, there are few clues to indicate what may have happened to her aircraft.

As the episode progresses further, the authorities and her loved ones are forced to confront the grim possibility that she may not be alive.

Despite the assumption of Paula's death, Sven and Charlie cling to a glimmer of hope that she may still be alive. However, Sven's quest to find Paula is fraught with uncertainty and challenges.

Whether Sven will be able to find Paula remains uncertain, and only time will provide the answer.

‘The Signal’ Episode 2 is now streaming on Netflix
