- A group of old college friends (Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, Michelle Monaghan) reunite for a “spiritual” girls’ trip, only to discover long-buried resentments and betrayals that force them to confront their past.
- Belinda (Natasha Rothwell), the spa manager from Season 1, returns, but now as a self-made wellness guru grappling with the ethics of selling enlightenment to wealthy tourists.
- Rick Hatchett (Walton Goggins) becomes embroiled in a dramatic series of events involving mistaken identity and violence, leading to the season’s shocking climax.
