Apple TV+'s period dramedy, Palm Royale Season 2, is gearing up for its finale. The penultimate episode of the season, titled Maxine Hears a Conversation, is all set to drop on January 7, 2026, on Apple TV. Previously, in Palm Royale Season 2, we saw how Maxine played dead to lay a trap for Mirabelle's killer. During her funeral, unaware of Maxine's plans, her ex-husband Douglas breaks down and confesses his love for her. When Maxine blows her cover, Josh gets hurt and leaves the church. Later that evening, they reconcile, and Douglas offers to accompany her to Switzerland. Maxine agrees to his proposal. Just when you thought things couldn't get any more bizarre, the whole team flies to Switzerland, including Virginia, Ann, Perry, Dinah, Evelyn, and Mitzi. After a chaotic series of events in the Swiss Alps, the episode closes on a cliffhanger as Douglas goes unconscious, thinking that the Schnapps he took was poisonous. Elsewhere, Evelyn is thrown off by a gust of wind and lands in the middle of a crucial conversation. Meanwhile, Robert burns Axel's letters.To know what happens next, watch Palm Royale Season 2 Episode 9 on January 7, 2026, only on Apple TV.Palm Royale Season 2 Episode 9 release date, streaming details, and cast View this post on Instagram Instagram PostEpisode 9 of Palm Royale Season 2 is all set to drop on Wednesday, January 7, 2026, on Apple TV.
