It’s been clear throughout the show that Jules feels a responsibility to keep Rue sober, and Schafer says it’s even tougher this time around. After awkwardly parting ways, Rue runs after Jules and tells her that she wants to be with her, and the two kiss. Jules asks Rue about her drug use, and she reluctantly admits that she relapsed the night Jules left town, but lies and says she only smoked weed at the party. Meanwhile, Jules spends the evening searching for Rue and eventually finds her sitting by a fire. “Sometimes doing the right thing feels like the wrong thing, and doing the wrong thing feels like the right thing,” she offers cryptically. Zendaya calls Rue and Elliot’s friendship “disturbing,” hinting that there will be a “lot of messy things” that happen as the season unfolds. He seems worried but intrigued, and the two spend the rest of the night hanging out.

At the New Year’s Eve party, she encounters Elliot doing drugs in the laundry room and asks to join.

With the introduction of Dominic Fike as Elliot, a new friend of Rue’s, and relationships seemingly budding between several unlikely characters, there’s a lot to unpack from the hour-long premiere. ![]() Rue and Jules officially make up, Maddy (Alexa Demie) and Nate (Jacob Elordi) face each other for the first time since their breakup, and a bloody fight ensues between Nate and Fezco (Angus Cloud). Season 2 picks up a few days later at a New Year’s Eve house party, where the teens all come together for the first time after a week off from school. When the pair finally reunited on Christmas Eve, Jules apologized - only for Rue to awkwardly reply “Merry Christmas” before walking away. The series’ two bridge episodes offered a glimpse into the characters’ respective aftermaths, with Rue discussing her attempted sobriety with her sponsor Ali (Colman Domingo) and Jules opening up to a therapist about her evolving gender identity and feelings for Rue. But after bailing at the last minute, Rue returned home, relapsed on drugs, and overdosed while Jules left without her. Season 1 ended with Rue (Zendaya) and Jules (Hunter Schafer) professing their love for one another and planning to skip town after a tumultuous few months.
