The tension ratchets up a notch in the second episode of MGM+’s “Nine Bodies in a Mexican Morgue.” Following a harrowing plane crash, the survivors are not only battling the elements and dwindling resources, but also the growing suspicion that a killer walks among them. “Black Angels” explores the uneasy alliances formed in the face of desperation and the chilling realization that anyone could be the next victim.
As the survivors’ scramble for food and water intensifies, another passenger meets a grim end. This latest death throws the group into even deeper paranoia, making it clear that their fight for survival is twofold: against the jungle and against a hidden predator. The crash site becomes less a refuge and more a locked-room mystery, where every shared glance and whispered conversation carries the weight of suspicion.
With mistrust escalating, the survivors’ true natures begin to emerge. Who will crack under the pressure? And who will reveal themselves to be something far more dangerous than a desperate survivor? Alongside the present-day struggle, the episode is likely to offer more flashbacks, which may provide crucial clues about the passengers’ pasts and their potential motives. “Black Angels” airs Sunday, March 9th at 9:00 PM ET/PT on MGM+.
