After the
teaser gave us a pretty brief glimpse at what to expect in the next chapter of the saga of Issa, Molly, Lawrence (played by Issa Rae, Yvonne Orji and Jay Ellis) and co., an official trailer has been released today to give you a better idea at what you will see in Season 2. Get excited because the preview alone left us cackling.
In the two-minute clip we see Issa trying to return to the dating scene, begrudgingly. She wants Lawrence back, but as you’ll recall from the end of Season 1, we last saw him getting his rocks off with bank teller Tasha after leaving our protagonist for stepping out with old flame Daniel. So Issa is trying to put herself out there. She is going on dates, while at the same time, hoping that after giving Lawrence some space, they can pick up where they left off.
As for Molly, she looks to be having a little bit more luck at love the second time around, but not when it comes to work. Despite being one of the top lawyers at her firm, she finds out that a white male colleague at the same office and on a similar level gets paid more than her.
The dilemmas for both ladies are big, but per the usual, they are handled with a huge dose of hilarity. That includes Issa deciding to go through a “ho phase” to mutual friend Kelli trying to comfort Molly by telling her she shorts her White clients on their tax returns as a form of reparations. Comedy.
Check out the trailer below, and be sure to check out the premiere of Season 2 on July 23 at 10:30 p.m. (right after
Ballers) on HBO.
By the trailer...
still I find myself identifying so much with her.
