    (TRAILER) 2nd Season

    Teresa inherited her workplace; The Katherine O'Mara Arts Residency, an artist’s retreat. All Teresa wants is a baby-- but Gunter is more interested in pursuing his vows of eco-abstinence. Will Teresa have to settle for the old schoolyard bully Malachy McCourt? He tries to win Teresa's heart--and her significant inheritance-- by weaponizing his significant abs-of-steel. Synopsis Season 2 opens with a funeral, narrated by self-deluded radio celebrity DAMIEN. TERESA , the newly discovered heiress of the Kathleen O'Mara Artist's Retreat, is devastated that Nora, the former chef, is dead. The residency continues to run on one leg with new residents arriving during the funeral. Long-time resident MARY, (aka the drippy poet), has taken-over the cooking ever since Nora died. AGNÉS, the haute-bohème artist, now lives at Una’s decrepit B&B. GUNTER, the stoat-obsessed geek, now lives outdoors though it is starting to flood. New comers MERCURY, a superstar DJ is on the run from her London haunts. WENDELL, a celebrity Irish-American Dance Champion is taking a break from his manager/agent/mother. JONATHAN, the vacuous boyfriend of a footballer gloats-on about his tell-all memoir about being a HAB. SEAMUS, a shady priest lurks the premises. All vie for attention along with JOCELYN, Wendell's Momager, who is staying at Una’s B & B. The gardens start flooding and the house is under threat, and with it Teresa's future and her dreams of maternity.

A.R.S.E. rep & poet, resident MARY WARD steps up to the altar to read from her new poetry collection ... much to the groans and chagrin of all the mourners. Former resident artist AGNES DE LAMBALLE is unconsolable (but looks fab in her ironing board mourning hat). New heiress/ director TERESA BLACK, (the former maid) is sad but clearly getting used to her new status. During the funeral, Damien has no qualms about asking for retakes being an ambitious director-auteur now. The director-auteur demands excellence from the funeral attendees. New resident WENDELL O'SHAUGHNESSY (a young American Irish dance champion) has been recruited to perform altar-boy duties. He takes genuflecting to a new dimension. New resident, FATHER SEAMUS (writing his prison chaplaincy memoirs) has left his writing room and cigarettes to officiate the mass. Unbeknownst to the others, except the priest... MALACHY MCCOURT is out of prison and up to no good again. A late comer enters. Could it be? Yes. Bling-bling resident, superstar DJ MERCURY arrives and takes on the father, the son and the holy spirit. She's recovering from bad press and hot on the trail of LiIL PETE MOSS-- the mysterious, masked, bad-boy heartthrob Tiktokker to rebrand her sinking career. Teresa fan girls DJ Mercury. And she's not the only one. But Father Seamus is having none of this. New resident, HAB (Husband and Boyfriend) JONATHAN, is writing a self-help book on relationships and is here for all the juicy, celebrity gossip, diet and beauty tips. Stage-Mom and entertainment agent/manager JOCELYN finds her son Wendell on the altar... much to his despair. She tries to get him back to the dance studio to finesse his triple-axel triple slip jigs. But Father Seamus is having none of this. LATER IN THE GRAVEYARD... Mary has agreed to replace Nora in the kitchen much to the chagrin of the mourners. UNA (the disheveled owner of the B & B who lives with Agnes) is found napping in Nora's new grave. Audio artist, stoat ecologist, and former resident GUNTER warns of a flood swamping the grounds. Teresa is glad to see him again. After the burial, Damien shows his rushes from the documentary and they discover Malachy in the background of the burial site grasping his ol' shovel once again. He's back from his time in prison for murdering Teresa's parents. Gunter hits the jackpot when he zooms in to spot TWIN STOATS.
