According to Gentry, "the stakes are much higher now" in season two. In November 2021, she told Seventeen, "I think fans will be in for a lot of wonderful tension, a lot of building up to climax, and a couple of interesting characters will be revealed. I can't say a lot about it right now, but I can't wait for us to go back filming, which is very, very soon. I'm just really ready. I miss all my castmates."
Lampert previously told Oprah Daily that there's still so much more of Ginny and Georgia's relationship to explore. "The relationship between Ginny and Georgia is the third character in the show," Lampert said. "It lives on its own. It's constantly changing and evolving. There are so many scenes where the two of them are communicating with each other over everyone's head. They're intrinsically wound."
She continued, "Ginny is going through the world in a different way than Ginny is and Georgia can't ever grasp that. In the same way, Ginny can't understand the trauma and sacrifices Georgia went through to get Ginny to Wellsbury. There's a lot of room for them to hurt each other's feelings with what they can't understand about each other."
