‘Tell Me Lies’ Creator Answers Finale Burning Questions, Hints at Season 3 Time Jump and Responds to Leo and Stephen Tattoo Theories

variety.com:

SPOILER ALERT: This post contains spoilers from the Season 2 finale of “Tell Me Lies,” now streaming on Hulu.

Season 2 of “Tell Me Lies” came crashing to an end — in both the 2008 and the 2015 timelines. In an attempt to sum up everything that happened: Stephen (Jackson White) and Diana (Alicia Crowder) broke up — an idea she made him think was his doing, but she’d been planning all along to get him away. (No, her dad never turned off her credit cards!) There was no sadness at all for Stephen, who immediately slept with Lucy (Grace Van Patten).

Right after that hookup, Lucy went back to Leo (Thomas Doherty) and slept with him — without even changing her underwear. That tidbit came in hand for Stephen later when he brought up what she was wearing to prove to Leo they’d hooked up hours before and led to Leo punching him repeatedly until his face was unrecognizable.

Then there were Bree (Catherine Missal) and Oliver (Tom Ellis), who were finally caught by Marianne (Gabriella Pession)… except she’d known all along, since she and her husband were in an open relationship and had just decided not to tell Bree that. (Bree also delivered the best line of the episode, yelling at Oliver, “You don’t get to fuck me like I’m an adult then talk to me like I’m a child.”) And those weren’t even the most dramatic storylines.
