The protagonist enters prison after a violent domestic incident and faces immediate barriers to contacting her daughter. Suspicion, blackmail, and institutional pressure quickly define her new reality.
Contradictory testimony, missing evidence, inspections, and suspicious recordings complicate the case. The protagonist is forced to navigate rival prison factions while trying to preserve her chance of vindication.
A trial and renewed intimidation push the protagonist into a sinister scheme. The season closes with her legal and personal situation increasingly controlled by forces inside the prison.
A second trial offers hope, but the danger surrounding the protagonist's daughter expands beyond the prison. Old footage, divided loyalties, and strategic manipulation transform the conflict into a wider investigation.
The daughter's disappearance, threatened silence, hospitalisation, and exposure to a sinister associate drive the central crisis. The protagonist shifts from seeking vindication to protecting her family at any cost.
A suspected murder investigation leads to a collective pursuit of the culprit and a prison riot after the protagonist is denied a funeral visit. Resignations, collapsing order, and a final life-altering decision close the two-season arc.
