What to Expect in Episode 5
The official description from Apple TV says the new episode will focus on a business deal and a new connection for Maxine. It states: “Evelyn and Maxine must strike a deal with a powerful socialite to finance their plan. Maxine clicks with the charismatic Dr. Dusty Magic”.
This follows the intense events of Episode 4, which ended with several storylines up in the air. The biggest shock was the kidnapping of Maxine’s ex-husband, Douglas. It is suspected that the criminal Pinky, who Douglas owes money, is behind the abduction.
Meanwhile, Maxine learned the truth about Norma from Robert. Norma is not a real Dellacorte; her real name is Agnes. The real Norma died as a child, and Agnes took her place to live a wealthy life. After Maxine discovered Norma’s room of trophies from her victims, Norma fled to Switzerland and framed Maxine for her own murder.
Evelyn Rollins is also pushing her plan to gain control in Palm Beach. She needs signatures from three powerful families and has already secured two through pressure and manipulation. The final signature she needs is from the Dellacorte family.
