The CW’s cozy drama Sullivan’s Crossing continues its second season with “Truth and Consequences,” an episode that stirs up Cal Jones’s (Chad Michael Murray) past while hinting at potential trouble for Phoebe (Lauren Hammersley). As Maggie (Morgan Kohan) assists Cal with his sister, Sedona (guest star Meghan Ory), long-buried secrets about Cal’s backstory emerge. This familial visit coincides with Sully (Ron Joiner) and Phoebe working together on a surprise for Maggie, likely adding a touch of warmth amidst the unfolding drama.
The episode’s title, “Truth and Consequences,” implies a reckoning of sorts. While the focus appears to be on Cal’s past, the synopsis suggests Phoebe might also face some difficult truths. With Walter searching for Phoebe, the episode raises questions about her current situation and whether she’s deliberately avoiding him or if something more serious is afoot.
Adding a touch of real-life romance to the on-screen drama, Meghan Ory, Chad Michael Murray’s real-life spouse, guest stars as Cal’s sister, Sedona. Such casting choices often add an extra spark of interest for viewers, particularly in close-knit ensemble shows like Sullivan’s Crossing. The episode also finds Sully and Phoebe, a pairing that often brings comic relief, collaborating on a surprise for Maggie. It will be interesting to see if this lighter storyline provides a counterpoint to the more serious elements of the episode or if it becomes entangled in the brewing tensions.
Meanwhile, Sydney’s (Holly Deveaux) ongoing storyline about her life in New York gets more screen time as she confronts “something significant” she left behind. Given her previous struggles with her former employer and the reasons for her move to Sullivan’s Crossing, expect that this storyline will further complicate Sydney’s attempts to create a new life for herself.
“Truth And Consequences” airs Wednesday, November 27, from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM EST on The CW.
