Our penultimate deep dive into One of Us Is Next is packed with twists, heartbreak, and the kind of drama only Bayview and 90s daytime television can provide.

Maeve and Knox, with way too much free time, decide that stalking someone is the logical next step, because of course they do. Meanwhile, Phoebe is holding everyone together, only to be blindsided by the return of a familiar detective and devastating new details about her father’s death.

The biggest shock? We finally unmask both Unknown and Bayview_2020, and the truth changes everything.

Over on the lighter side (sort of), Eli and Ashton just want to throw a romantic party to celebrate their love, but Karen McManus has to torture Nate some more so that goes out the window quickly. Naturally, chaos ensues.

If you’re ready for explosive reveals, high-stakes secrets, and one last cliffhanger before the finale, this is the episode you can’t miss.

We've figured it out! Not really, but we're trying really hard.

In this week’s episode, we’re diving into chapters 21–25 of One of Us Is Next by Karen M. McManus. Everyone’s watching someone, secrets are on the verge of spilling, and the mystery behind Unknown is starting to take shape.

Maeve gets a life-altering phone call that sets her on a brand new path, Luis flexes his detective muscles (again), and Phoebe turns the tables on a mystery follower. Meanwhile, Knox is done playing it safe and makes a bold move in the name of answers. And back at home, Phoebe walks in on a moment that makes it clear Emma’s struggles are more serious than anyone realized.

Join us as we break down the drama, the clues, and the chaos.

Family Drama, Flashbacks, and the Return of Nonny (Chapters 16–20 of One of Us Is Next)

It’s been a week since Brandon’s funeral, and the silence from Unknown is somehow louder than ever. In chapters 16-20 of One of Us Is Next by Karen M. McManus, secrets are piling up faster than explanations. Knox gets hit with a memory thanks to a violent video game (as one does), family tensions are at an all-time high, and Sean continues his reign as Bayview’s worst resident.

But honestly? The real star of the show is Nonny. She’s back, she’s precious, and we love her more than ever.

Join us for another chaotic deep dive into Bayview’s drama, because nothing says "YA thriller" like sibling fights, secret medical conditions, and one very clutch grandmother.

All the Kids in Bayview: How Do Our Secrets Keep Getting Out?

Oh, I don't know, maybe getting drunk and messy at crowded parties and having private conversations in public cafes are what's keeping your secrets from staying buried. 🙃

This week, we’re diving into One of Us Is Next by Karen M. McManus, covering Chapters 11–15, and things are getting messy, emotionally and legally. Tragedy strikes, teachers ignore red flags, and the Bayview police stay committed to being the worst. They are nothing if not consistent.

Also, in case it hasn't been covered yet, Luis is like...really good looking.

Join us as we recap, laugh, and gasp our way through the chaos in Bayview.

Trigger warnings for this group of chapters: consent, racism, and mentions of antisemitism.

The Bayview Four are back together! Briefly. And of course, the reunion goes downhill fast.

Maeve dusts off her detective badge, Luis attempts a cookie-fueled proposal, and Knox finds out the lawyers at Until Proven deal with more than just legal briefs and nosy reporters. Meanwhile, Phoebe faces off with the only person we hate more than Jake.

Also, Mr. Santos continues his campaign for Actual Best Human in Bayview, taking care of literally everyone except for a creep in a hunting jacket, who wisely backs off after encountering Luis’s biceps and dish towel.

Oh, Bayview, you never disappoint.

It’s been 18 months since Simon’s death, and while plenty have tried, no one’s managed to replace him. Until someone comes up with a fresh new idea. Now we're all playing a very public game of truth or dare and families are being torn apart.

In these first five chapters, we’ve got fresh faces, returning faves, and some weirdos on Reddit trying to honor Simon's memory. So buckle up friends, we're goin back to Cali.
