Season finale! Cam is closer than ever to unearthing the truth about the experimental drug trial that led to her parents’ death. So why is she suddenly unsure that Nellie is the villain she thought? And if Nellie wasn’t responsible, who was? Plus, Sadie may finally be ready to forgive Alicia. But Erica - the woman who raised her as her own - isn’t ready to let Sadie go. There’s just one problem… Erica is dead. Isn’t she?!

If you thought the end of season 1 was explosive, you haven’t heard anything yet.

Show notes

New week, new narrator! Alicia Dubois has survived scandal and the cancellation of her show by the Nelsons - and now she’s more popular than ever. She’s reconnecting romantically with Dwayne Fisher, and more importantly, she’s finally come clean to Sadie about the true nature of their relationship.

So why is Alicia plagued by nightmares of Erica, Dwayne's dead wife… and one of Alicia’s dearest friends? And worse, why can’t she shake the feeling that someone - or something - is watching her?
