Witnessing Ashley’s harsh reality,Tea is torn between her mission and the desire to help her escape Miran’s control,” reads the official synopsis.

This second season changes everything, as Tea and Ashley’s worlds collide again and new challenges push them to the limit,” said Samanou Acheche Sahlstrøm, conceptual director of the series.
