Last season saw the Harris family split up and struggle to come back together again when a massive hole opened up on the freeway in Los Angeles, sucking most of them into it.

Season 2 NBC's hit sinkhole drama 'La Brea' premiered Tuesday, and Natalie Zea and Jack Martin — who play mother and son — say mysteries will be solved this ...

MARTIN: I’ve been a fan of this genre for a while, you know, I’ve seen “Lost,” I’ve seen “The Walking Dead.” Something that was fun is that the new season of “Stranger Things” was coming out while we were shooting this, and they also go to L.A. My story, in addition to a lot of the people who were left in the clearing, it’s really just a continuation of exactly where we left off because the name of the episode is “The Next Day.” Can you even look at that area of Los Angeles after seeing it swallowed up in a sinkhole? From there, I just tried to embody the feeling of those characters. There’s going to be some reunions, there’s going to be some character interactions that people have been waiting to see. It’s just a part of the experience that she’s going through right now. Last season, I tended to be in these big group dynamics that were more about driving the plot forward and were shooting in these wild outdoor locations that we still use, but it’s less of a focus for Josh here. People think that I am Silas, I get a lot of that, which I can’t speak to, but other theories like that. That’s not to mention the endless slew of prehistoric predators and the mysterious modern skyscraper that was revealed at the end of the last season. There’s a bit of like, you know, “I’ll deal with my feelings later, as soon as we make sure that everybody is alive and breathing.” There has to be moments where she takes a breath and she becomes vulnerable. Zea and Martin, currently finishing up shooting the second season in Australia, spoke to Variety about the show’s latest revelations.

"That's a very long walk. "Being afraid of something that isn't there is wild," she said. "Both physically and emotionally, she's having a very difficult time. "I like being able to play it as a woman, and I like her flaws." And prior to the events of this show, he felt betrayed by his dad, which made him question those things. "It was really weird also just thinking about being in 10,000 B.C. "So, it's become this fun, action‑packed experience for all of us. "When the stakes are literal life and death, you tend to kind of put that bull[expletive] aside ‑‑ initially, at least ‑‑ to make sure everybody stays alive," she said. She's got no choice," the actress emphasized, noting she valiantly confronts both internal and external forces. "But, then, I think there's always a moment when it's a good time to have those conversations." "We have to set all this stuff aside. In Season 1, Eve's estranged, former military pilot husband, Gavin (Eoin Macken), and daughter Izzy (Zyra Gorecki) try to transport themselves into the past to reunite their family.

Perhaps, she and her dad are more alike than we thought, while Josh was content to live among 1980s movies and food. When I saw that vision of her in danger, I wanted to come down here to help. This was her main reason for going through the portal. For all I know she’s dead and coming here was a waste. This new group will probably be the new villains of La Brea Season 2. Eve only wants her family back and is willing to check out Silas's Intel to hang onto that hope. His friends aren't aware of his mental health issues, but they want to help. Thankfully, he and Marybeth made peace before she died. Last season, he was so angry at everyone, especially his mom. Silas also has nothing to lose. As they began their search, things were awkward between Eve and Levi. Without Riley there to keep him calm, he loses it.

La Brea showrunner David Appelbaum explains the significance of the new sinkhole revealed in the premiere of the NBC drama.

We don't want to interfere with that journey, because if we did, it might affect the fate of Josh and Riley. What we've set up in Season 1 is a complicated love triangle, but it's been a love triangle without…we haven't really been able to play it in the way that you want because not all the characters were together. We got a taste of that in Season 1 where we found that treasure box of gold from the 1800s, and we'll continue to expand that idea. We're constantly twisting the story and coming up with new surprises and keeping the audience on their toes, so I think it goes along with a larger vision for the show that we have. It is, I think, a place that I don't think our audience might have expected for us to go, but I think that's one of the fun things about the show. I think it offers opportunities, not only in Season 2, but also in the future with other things and other people we might be able to meet as we go forward. Applebaum: Isaiah is going to play a small but important role in the season. That's a question to be answered next week, hopefully along with the contents of the high rise that Aldridge ( [Ming-Zhu Hii](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/ming-zhu-hii/credits/3030799055/)) and Scott ( [Rohan Mirchandaney](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/rohan-mirchandaney/3060033585/)) are finally about to enter. David Appelbaum: Well, what we know from Episode 1 is that it might offer a way for [Josh and Riley] to get to 10,000 BC, but going back to 10,000 BC isn't going to be so simple, because they're going to get sucked into the larger mystery of why the sinkholes are existing and who is behind them and can they stop them. Applebaum: We are playing the time travel idea that the events of 10,000 BC are changing the future. Remember that sinkhole in Seattle that Gavin ( [Eoin Macken](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/eoin-macken/credits/3000023560/)) jumped into with his daughter Izzy ( [Zyra Gorecki](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/zyra-gorecki/3000900412/)) and one-time adoption pal Ella ( [Michelle Vergara Moore](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/michelle-vergara-moore/credits/590915/))? [La Brea](https://www.tvguide.com/tvshows/la-brea/1000898094/) is back, and with it comes a whole bunch of incredible new twists.

La Brea season 2 episode 1 kicked off with the opening of a new sinkhole in Hollywood - what's going on, and is time breaking irreparably?

To their surprise, they learned a sinkhole had opened beneath the Hollywood sign in 1988, causing a large part of the sign to collapse. [La Brea](https://screenrant.com/tag/la-brea/) season 2 kicked off in spectacular fare, with another sinkhole opening in Hollywood in 1988. It is, however, quite possible that this is the very reason these mysterious scientists are conducting their experiments in the first place. La Brea season 2 will clearly build on these revelations, hopefully explaining just who is responsible for the temporal chaos - and why. As bewildering as this may be for Gavin, from an in-universe perspective the time travel "rules" seem to be making sense. La Brea season 1 kicked off with a sinkhole forming in Los Angeles; at the bottom of the sinkhole was a rift transporting those unlucky enough to fall into it to the year 10,000BC, at the tail end of the last Ice Age.

With so much fall out from the season 1 finale, "The Next Day" creates a season premiere that deals with the cliffhangers.

Besides a newspaper revealing a sinkhole opened at the Hollywood sign, something that had not originally happened, there is not much pushing their storyline forward. However, “The Next Day” does not handle them directly. They do not get to experience that much culture shock to a new time and instead find a house to stay in fairly quickly after finding the door unlocked and the owners on vacation.

Her committed son refused and even offered to carry her up the mountain. Ultimately, he was too devastated to continue on his journey and did not make it through the portal that led to 1988 before it closed, leaving him in 10,000 B.C. When Aldridge revealed that the portal in Topanga will lead them to 1988, Marybeth and Lucas agreed to travel miles for that journey, along with many others. Although Marybeth and Lucas had a [rocky relationship](https://www.nbc.com/nbc-insider/la-brea-season-1-episode-7-recap) at the beginning of La Brea, the mother-and-son duo began to form a close bond amid unimaginably difficult circumstances. “I am not missing my chance to get out of this place,” she said.
