All’s fair in love and treasure hunts.
“We see her really battle with that decision.”
“It’s always fun when you see these young love stories,” Stokes says.

“I think they know each other better than what the audience has given them credit for.
But this relationship has happened very fast and so season 2 is definitely going to test them.
“Which I like because I didn’t want their relationship to be perfect,” she says.

And I didn’t want it to stay that way.
I wanted there to be some conflict.
Reality kind of slaps them in the face.

Is it going to last?”
Back over in the states, Kiara and Pope shared a kiss in the season 1 finale.
So what’s their deal in season 2 are they dating or what?

“Pope starts out this season in a place of grieving his friend.
And they get that answer this year.”
I was excited and I look forward to seeing that through a little bit more."
“I think it really is important to show for these characters,” Bailey says.
“JJ’s asking himself, ‘Am I going to be okay without John B?’
I don’t think relationships are on his mind at the start of the season.
“I don’t have an insane amount of say or preference,” Bailey says with a laugh.
“It’s just more validation that we did a good job of bringing these characters to life.”
But enough about the romance let’s talk treasure!
“All the cards on the table,” Stokes says.
Everyone’s looking at Ward in a completely different light and what does that do?
John B doesn’t really know.”
“It’s got a much more hopeful sense this season,” Pankow says.
But this is bigger than just winning and getting rich."
Daviss was thrilled about the season 2 treasure hunt arc because of what it means for Pope.
“It was everything to me.
But Cline warns that the hunt will be more dangerous than ever too.
“The Pogues didn’t realize how deep they were getting into all of this,” she says.
“They’re confronted with that reality this season.
They get confronted with the reality that they’re not the only ones who were in on this.”
And Stokes teases that season 2’s treasure hunt is actually grounded a lot more in reality.
“Everything that these guys go through is something that is researched and incredibly real,” he says.
“What the Pogues thought was one thing has now turned into a completely different thing.
“We’re all brought closer together and realize that all that’s ever mattered is family.
That’s such an important arc for Kiara because she does feel like these friends are her family.”
Spoken like a true Pogue.
