While last season’s finale teased for a moment that Olympia (Skye P. Marshall) and Matty (Kathy Bates) would be on the same page, the late twist of Julian‘s (Jason Ritter) involvement in the Wellbrexa cover-up left Olympia with no good options. The first two episodes of Season Two have both Matty and Olympia attempting to protect their friendship while also maneuvering behind each other’s backs as Matty pushes to reveal the evidence to the New York Times and Olympia keeps stalling trying to get Matty to go after Senior (Beau Bridges) who they both know was the one behind what happened.

  • Title: Killing Faith

Set in the equally bleak surroundings of mid-19th Century Arizona, Killing Faith follows the unlikely group of a freed slave (DeWanda Wise), her passing daughter (Emily Katherine Ford), a drug-abusing doctor (Guy Pearce), and a half-wit (Jack Alcott) on a five day journey from the town they are no longer accepted to a neighboring one which they hope will lead to salvation.

At the center of the film, although without any lines of her own, is the young girl who is a carrier of the plague ravaging the area. Some, including her mother, believe the child has been infected by the Devil leading to the supernatural overtones of the movie (which are more subtle than you would expect, accepting only by the poorly educated and fearful of the Western territory) and the religious conversations between the mother and the doctor (haunted by the loss of his own daughter to the same disease).
