The ‘Sugar’ Season 2 Finale Dropped Yet Another Huge Twist
Much like Sugar’s first season, its second installment followed Colin Farrell’s John Sugar, a Los Angeles private investigator, as he pursued a case that led him to some very dark places—while also tracking Sugar’s experiences as an alien living undercover on Earth. The extraterrestrial reveal was a major twist in season one, explaining things about the main character that didn’t quite add up while also rewriting the entire show’s DNA. Then, after Sugar solved the case of a movie mogul’s missing granddaughter (who was actually the man’s daughter, though it wasn’t as sleazy as that sounds), he had to grapple with his decision to stay behind when the rest of the aliens sharing his “observe and report” mission abruptly departed for home.
