List of episodes

The second season premiered on April 20, 2014. The season centers on the mystery story of Opal, the new, 40-something maid, played by Joanna P. Adler. The character is described as "reminiscent of Mrs. Danvers from Hitchcock's Rebecca" and is seen as a threat to Marisol's new relationship with Nicholas.[1] The second season also deals with Rosie working for an African-American family that is scheming to do harm to an elderly man she's hired to act as a caregiver, Zoila dealing with her estrangement from her husband Pablo while her daughter Valentina tries to distance herself from Remi and Zoila while trying to downplay the attention of pool boy Ethan, both of whom, along with a new body guard, Tony, are hired by Adrian and Evelyn Powell in the wake of a series of robberies that leads to deadly consequences for Alejandro, who is killed during their heist at his party, leaving Carmen, who signed a deal to insure a recording deal in order to keep his homosexuality a secret, back to square one in her quest to become famous.

For the second season, four new series regular actors were added for the show.[1] Brianna Brown, Wolé Parks and Brett Cullen did not return for season 2. Mariana Klaveno went from regular to recurring basis in second season. Stage actress Joanna P. Adler was cast in main role of a new mystery maid, Opal, in December 2013.[2] Newcomer Dominic Adams was cast as Tony, the bodyguard.[3] Tricia O'Kelley joined the cast in the recurring role as Tanya.[4] Colin Woodell was cast as his son, Ethan Sinclair,[5] and Mark Deklin as Nicholas Deering, Marisol's new love interest.[6]

This season, Klaveno, Brown, Cullen and Parks left as show regular performers. Klaveno, Cedeño and Hamilton returned as recurring status. Academy Award–nominee June Squibb also was cast as Susan Lucci's character's mother, Velma, in two episodes of the second season.[7][8] Also was added the African-American Family - the Millers, Tiffany Hines as Didi, Kimberly Hebert Gregory as Lucinda, Reggie Austin as Reggie, and Willie C. Carpenter as Kenneth Miller.[9]
