The Season 2 Plot, Courtesy of Starz:
Season two picks up nine months after Ashley and Miles’s prison nuptials in the season one finale, Ashley is doing backflips to try and raise Sean on her own. She is reaching her breaking point and is taking it out on everyone around her.
Miles is adjusting to life on the inside and counting down the days before their first family visitation weekend at San Quentin. Rainey (Hunt) is doing her best to make Ashley and Sean feel at home while trying to find a way to stay connected to her son behind bars, but Ashley holds all the cards.
Trish’s (Barron) new business is flourishing, but she is dealing with jealousy issues now that her best friend and business partner Jacque (Absynth) is dating Cuddie (Holloway). Janelle (Nicholas-Lippman) is growing frustrated with Ashley’s constant need for support and has begun to miss her life back in Bali.
And then, of course, Earl (Turner), fresh out of prison himself for unintentionally breaking his probation, has moved out of Nancy’s (Hall) house and is trying to re-establish a relationship with his own family, and his past. Welcome back to the ordeal.
