201: The Beginning Of The Beginning
Five months after Marisol was stabbed things are looking up. Well, anything that's not being dead is "looking up". She has been sober for 142 days (though the doctors did give her a lot of very strong painkillers so...there's that), she's planning a wedding (though Nina keeps moving it up because her Dad is getting worse so....that's another thing), also she's working as a private chef (
202: Sleep. Deep. Creep.
Well, Saturday's here! Which means Marisol gets to spend a day with Summer. Which she is excited about for purely altruistic reasons. Helping people, right? I mean, that's good. Plus they get to talk more about moral philosophy and you know Marisol....always a big enjoyer of....that. Don't think about it too hard let her have this!Starring: Mo McKynzie as Marisol. Yodeet Nymberg as Nina.
203: Girl, Don't do it!
Little Marisol Montgomery has been channeling her inner Mother Teresa. For the past month she has not missed a single volunteering session at the food bank. Which definitely has everything to do with the fact that it's a good thing and nothing at all to do with the person she is volunteering with. Because that would be inappropriate. And Nina wouldn't like it. And that would mean the Host

205: Decadence

Chinna Palmer as The Stranger. Co
206: The Edge
So, things are spiraling right. Well, not spiraling. Well, yes, spiraling, but aren't things always spiraling? So, who cares if things are bad? Aren't things always bad? And who knows what you can tolerate when things are always at the max?? So many questions, no good answers. No good answers at all. Also, Nina's parents are coming over and the wedding is tomorrow. Jeez, is it hot in here
207: Old, New, Borrowed, Blue

Bonus: 207.5- The Nina Episode
I don't know if you noticed, Marisol certainly doesn't, but Nina has a rich inner life too! She has wants and needs and fears. Lots of fears.
