The stakes get much higher in season 2. First, Linda is freed from the false accusation of being connected to President Nixon's assasination, and the group helps her escape to another country. Later, we finally learn the truth about Norma: she is not the real Dellacorte and has been hiding a dark secret. In the previous episode, Maxine discovers that Norma has been killing people and keeping small objects from her victims as trophies in her trophy room. But before Maxine can report her to the police, Norma escapes through a trap door and frames Maxine for her murder.
In Episode 4, Tom questions Maxine about Norma’s disappearance, even though Norma actually ran away to the Alps with the help of Sidonious. He stole Maxine’s plane tickets and Evelyn’s money and helped Norma check into a hotel under Maxine’s name. Because of this, Norma is far away from Palm Beach for now. Douglas and Pinky want Norma’s wealth, but Norma has secretly given everything to Robert.
Douglas and Mitzi become homeless and temporarily stay at Dinah and Perry’s house. The episode ends on a cliffhanger when Douglas is kidnapped, and it is suspected that Pinky’s men took him because Douglas has nothing left to offer him. Meanwhile, Maxine learns about Agnes, and in the next episode, Robert will explain Norma’s past: how the real little Norma died, and Agnes took her place, living the rich life of a Dellacorte at Palm Royale.
Evelyn is struggling to get her share of Palm Beach. She needs three signatures: from the Dellacortes, the Davidsouls, and the Donohues. Perry and Douglas refuse to sign, but Evelyn finds another way. She uses Dinah’s love letters as leverage to get her signature. Then, Mary Davidsoul uses her Ouija board to ask her late husband’s spirit, allowing Evelyn to get another signature. Only the Dellacorte signature is left. Since Mitzi is now married and is a Dellacorte, Evelyn may use her to get the final signature and finally gain control in Palm Beach.
In Episode 5, we may also see a new love angle between Maxine and Dr. Dusty Magic, the part-time doctor and lawyer who helped her escape Tom’s interrogation. The upcoming episode will likely reveal whether Evelyn succeeds with her big plan and what really happened to Douglas, who took him, and why.
The synopsis of Palm Royale season 1 episode 5 reads,
"Evelyn and Maxine must strike a deal with a powerful socialite to finance their plan. Maxine clicks with the charismatic Dr. Dusty Magic."
