"Destiny" S2 E1 - The season 2 premiere of Revenge was Sunday night and I was not disappointed! It takes place a year later right around Memorial Day weekend (beginning of the summer in the Hampton's). Victoria is "dead" and they are having an art auction in her honor. Daniel and the money grubbing girl, Ashley are together, but Mr. Grayson does not approve. I was a little surprised by this - I thought he liked Ashley because she seemed to have little to no ethical conflicts, but maybe he just likes that in business and not family? Not sure, oh well. Emily is on the hunt for more information about her mother and it shows a scene where she was trying to be on the verge of death under Takeda's watchful eye to regain some memories of her mom. Is that Takeda the same guy as last season? Her Japanese friend? Or is this a new Japanese friend? I'm a little confused there. And, who's the guy that's helping Takeda? Future romantic interest perhaps?
After looking at pictures, it's definitely a new actor. I hate when they do that - at least TRY and get someone who looks similar, or at least Emily should say "Hey Takeda, you shaved your head"
OK, enough about that, back to the plot. So, we see that Charlotte is in rehab and her counselor/doctor and Mr. Grayson are talking about her release. They agree that she can attend the art auction (since she missed her mother's memorial...that seems a little extreme, right?), but the doctor needs to attend in order to supervise. Mr. Grayson doesn't want to speak at the event so Ashley plans on speaking instead. Emily and Nolan arrive at the event and you can see that Daniel is definitely not over Emily. After Ashley says a few words about Victoria, Charlotte decides she wants to say a few things as well. Immediately after this, the doctor gets a call that her blood work came back and she had drugs in her system so she gets hauled away. Come to find out, the doctor is of course sketchy and being paid by Mr. Grayson. Mr. Grayson is trying to get Charlotte's trust money to save the company. Daniel it appears doesn't want to save the company with his trust money - is Daniel good after all? But, before Charlotte leaves the party, she whispers to Emily and we find out later that she was pointing Emily to Victoria. Victoria is alive! I think we all saw that, but I"ll pretend to be surprised. Emily goes to Victoria and Victoria basically said that she's hiding out under a government program as they work to uncover evidence against Mr. Grayson. Emily of course is suspicious so Nolan goes to work on a spy camera and they later see that Victoria is working with the white haired prison guard man who killed Emily's father. Victoria directs him to basically kill Emily since she now knows too much. Emily doesn't appear frightened - I guess she almost killed this guy before so she figures she can do it again.
Jack and Amanda are still together, but you can see that Jack is miserable. Him and Emily are hot for one another, but pregnant Amanda messed everything up. There's a few weeks until the baby arrives, but Emily asks Jack if he's sure the baby is his. Thank goodness someone thought about this! It's all way too suspicious. And, supposedly Takeda was working with Amanda, so we'll have to see where all this is going. What does Takeda have against all these people? I think that's about it. What did you guys think about the premiere? I was personally a little worried, but I think there's enough material to last at least through this season. Stay tuned! - Courtney
