Resurrection

- Season 2

(2014)

Bellamy awakens alone and abandoned at Arcadia's outskirts, missing a week of his life. As his memory returns, he has a shocking revelation. Meanwhile, Arcadia welcomes one more returned, Margaret Langston, the powerful matriarch of the Langston family, dead for over three decades.

When Bellamy and Sheriff Fred get reports that someone is living in Caleb Richards's old hunting shack, they fear he may have returned. Bellamy struggles with the knowledge that he too is a returned, and with following the orders of his mysterious boss. Janine moves back home in hopes of salvaging her marriage to Pastor Tom, despite Rachael's advancing pregnancy. Margaret Langston is furious when she learns the fate of the family business.

Sensing a need in the community, Tom creates a new parish specifically for the returned and Bellamy decides to confide in him that he is also one of them. Meanwhile, old human bones mysteriously turn up in the river and with them, implications for the Langston family that Margaret is determined to keep hidden.

Margaret convinces Lucille to host a dinner to celebrate Jacob's return, but unexpected guests strain relations in the Langston family to the breaking point. Meanwhile, Bellamy continues to research the history of the mysterious bones, and Rachael receives unsettling news about her baby.

Barbara makes strides in mending her relationship with Fred and Maggie, which only incites Margaret to step up her tactics to stop this. Bellamy's situation grows more precarious as he struggles to keep his secret from Maggie, while dealing with a strange illness that is spreading amongst the returned leading Bellamy to make some desperate measures.

Bellamy, now desperately ill himself, turns to an unexpected source, his shadowy government contact for help and ends up with a shocking revelation about his past. And after another returned disappears into thin air like Caleb Richards, the living look for answers. A newcomer to Arcadia makes Henry a tantalizing offer.

Rachael refuses treatment for the virus, fearing for her unborn child. The anti-Returned hate group True Living grows in numbers, including Deputy Carl. Elaine's brother Ray contracts the virus, despite the fact that he's living and not Returned. Brian Addison shows more than a passing interest in Margaret.

Pastor Tom's new church is becoming a refuge for the Returned as fear and anti-Returned rhetoric intensifies. Bellamy and Sheriff Fred are determined to track down the True Living members and stop them from causing any more harm, and Maggie is on the cusp of finding a cure for the virus until the unimaginable happens - a frightening kidnapping and a horrible hate crime brings everything to a grinding halt.

Arcadians mourn the loss of a beloved member of the community. The stem cells from Rachael's baby do provide the cure for the virus, but when Rachael suddenly goes missing, Bellamy and Maggie turn to an unexpected source for help. Henry learns the truth about Margaret and his family's role in the factory fire.

A violent storm hits Arcadia, knocking out all the power, Jacob goes missing along with Margaret, and The Langstons and Bellamy struggle to find them. Meanwhile, the tempest signals the arrival of another visitor, a stranger with a mysterious link to Bellamy.

Things turn more ominous in Arcadia with the return of Preacher James, who seems to have a strange and unnerving connection to Bellamy. Elsewhere, Margaret's presence is quickly felt at the government facility where she and other returned are being detained and faith becomes harder to hold onto when the unthinkable happens to Henry.

Things get shaky when a trance takes place in Arcadia involving the returned. Secrets are revealed.

Chaos ensues as the Preacher's posse, apprehensive of Rachael's 'evil' child, find themselves up against agent Bellamy and the Langstons. At the horizon, one member succumbs to change of faith.
