The first season of MobLand depicted an interesting storyline of betrayal, loss, and strict family culture. The viewers were left with some loose ends at the end of the series' finale that charted the hints of possibility in season two. The series, based on the performances of Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, and Helen Mirren, tells the story of the Harrigan crime family and their connections to other families as well as family feuds.

Although the Harrigans overcame their war against the Stevensons, the aftermath brought new questions and confusion. The complicated situation of prior grudges, unwritten agendas, and personal agendas implies that the problems of the family have only begun.

The first season has left a few stones unturned for the audience, so let's take a look at the 5 major questions that have to be addressed in Season 2.


These five burning issues from Season 1 need to be settled more in the new sequel to MobLand.

1. How will the injury of Harry Da Souza and his new relationship with Jan evolve?

In a surprise turn of events, Harry Da Souza was stabbed accidentally by his wife, Jan, in a fit of rage. Executive producer Jez Butterworth has confirmed that Harry was left uninjured by the attack and went on to add that Harry has a crucial position in the plot, which is the main reason why he survived.

The incident not only poses questions about Harry's bodily health but also about the strength of his marriage. Jan's actions and their repercussions might have repercussions on Harry's choices and loyalties in the future.


2. What will Maeve Harrigan's machinations do to the family's bond and fate?

Maeve Harrigan's manipulative handling of situations in MobLand, such as the discovery that she engineered the family's internal conflicts as a test, establishes her as a force not to be underestimated in the Harrigan family. She pushes her husband to be the once fearsome mobster he was and manipulates things in their circle to ensure that she gets her way.

Her manipulations, which ensured control of the family, planted seeds of mistrust. How her actions will influence the cohesion and decision-making process of the family needs to be seen.


3. What are the implications of the revelation of Eddie Harrigan's parentage?

The revelation that Eddie is Conrad Harrigan's son in MobLand injects a new complexity into the family dynamics. This fact can change Eddie's status within the family structure and influence his relationships with other members, especially with Kevin, his foster father.

This revelation creates new alliances, betrayals, and challenges to the already established order. The emotional and strategic ramifications of this new reality are yet to be critically explored.


4. Why are Bella Harrigan's meetings with government officials important?

Bella Harrigan's secret meetings with her father, Lord Pennock, and business associate Antoine indicate further political intrigue. Her actions indicate control of government officials, which can make the Harrigan family more powerful or could alternately make them vulnerable to fresh danger.

How these actions affect the business and reputation of the family in MobLand remains to be seen.


5. How will the power vacuum caused by Richie Stevenson's death be filled?

The removal of Richie Stevenson, the head of the opposition gang, leaves a power vacuum within the criminal fraternity. This can cause new challengers or intragroup rivalry between factions left behind, fighting for the top spot.

The Harrigans could be confronted with unexpected challenges as they try to cope with new alignments of loyalty and opposition.


As MobLand continues, these open-ended questions pave the way for more investigation of character motivations, power struggles, and repercussions for past actions.

The complicated character interplay and multifaceted plot points of Season 1 offer a fertile foundation upon which the story can branch off in interesting ways.
