This new revival of Cruel Intentions as a TV series brings back devious intrigue, dark romances, and complex power plays that transformed the 1999 movie into a cult classic. With the close-up ending for its debut season, season 2 is sure to get even more messy in the morally ambiguous lives of its scheming characters.
Top 5 plot points that need resolution in Cruel Intentions Season 2
Here are the top five unresolved plot points that must be addressed in the next installment:
1) Sebastian’s next move against Kathryn
Manipulative games by Kathryn Merteuil have long driven Cruel Intentions's storyline. Season 1 saw her machinations wreak havoc on Sebastian Valmont's life, but a cunning nature like his suggests that he won't let such betrayals go unresolved. So will Sebastian outmaneuver Kathryn and reclaim lost power or will her schemes dominate? Their ever-shifting power dynamic is ripe for escalation.
2) Annette’s role in the new world
What Annette Hargrove has up her sleeve and what's in store for her from the second season onwards is a surprise twist. Annette begins to shed off her girly and naive persona to become part of the dark, morally complex world. Annette's transformation could involve redemption and revenge in Cruel Intentions Season 2.
3) The mystery of Blaine and Greg’s alliance
Blaine and Greg were very emergent players in season 1. There were many hints of mystery and shared secrets between them. However, what that exactly means is still ambiguous. Whether they are with or against Kathryn, whether they are on their own vendetta, season 2 needs to delve into all these things and flesh out how their confessions will reverberate in the power struggle game.
4) The fallout of Cecile’s betrayal
Initially introduced as vulnerable and naive in Cruel Intentions, Cecile Caldwell shocked viewers with her dramatic backstabbing in the season finale. Her personal and strategic move to team up with Kathryn has left her open to possible revenge. Will Cecile emerge as a player who can stand on her own or will she be an innocent casualty in Kathryn's games?
5) The true extent of Kathryn’s ambitions
Kathryn's thirst for domination has no boundaries, but her endgame remains obscure. From manipulating family money to leveraging people's weaknesses, Kathryn's moves have remained one step ahead of every other character on the show. Season 2 needs to uncover what drives Kathryn, if it is power, revenge, or possibly something more profound, and if she'll finally be made accountable for her wrongdoings.
