She attends a high-society gala with Mayor Paul Randolph (Scott Porter), who is clearly smitten. Dressed in a stunning red gown, Georgia is a wolf in sheep’s clothing among the blue-blooded elite. She argues that Lydia wasn’t a villain, but
As Ginny retreats to the arms of Marcus (who finds her crying outside the party), and Georgia tightens her grip on the Mayor, one thing is clear. In Wellsbury, everyone is hiding something—and some secrets are lethal.
