A Nearly Normal Family Season 2 Storyline: What Would It Be Able to Be About?
The story revolves around a seemingly normal family who lives in the city of Lund in Sweden, a.k.a. the Sandell family. They were living a regular life until one day the daughter of the Sandall family, Stella, got arrested by the police.
For what may you ask? For MURDER. Her 32-year-old boyfriend was found stabbed to death, and she became the prime suspect. Now it is up to her parents, Pastor Adam and attorney Ulrika, to save her from prison.

As they try their best to save her, they realize that they don’t really know Stella very well, nor do they know each other. As they search for the truth, many family secrets pop up, showing them their failings as spouses and as parents to Stella.
So, can they save her? Is Stella really innocent? Will the three be able to mend their relationship and be a ‘normal family’ again? You should watch A Nearly Normal Family to get the feels.

What Happened at the End of A Nearly Normal Family Season 1?
This show has been very cleverly written to twist and turn the heads of the viewers. At one point, we feel that maybe Stella didn’t do anything, while the next moment, we see her parents getting rid of her bloodied clothes and cell phone.
Her parents went to the extent of giving false alibis to save their daughter. Ulrika and Adam get to know everything from Amina, Stella’s friend, who was a witness to everything that happened the night Chris was stabbed.
Ulrika made her final move to save her daughter by asking Amina to tell her the shocking truth: the night Chris was stabbed, he had drugged and raped Amina, and then she ran away from his apartment only to find him dead the next morning.
[adinserter block=3]
However, Amina didn’t tell anyone about it, fearing that no one would believe her. This helps to divert the case, causing the court to declare that Stella was in the clear. A flashback of the night of Chris’ murder is shown to us after this intense court case, where whatever Amina says happens, but there is a twist.
Stella catches Chris in the act, and she helps Amina flee from the scene, but as they try to escape, Chris goes into a frenzy and follows them with a knife, and in self-defense, Stella has to stab Chris. Both Amina and Stella show that they are true friends when they decide to bury the secret within themselves.

What Fan Can We Expect from A Nearly Normal Family Season 2?
If there was season 2 of A Nearly Normal Family, this is how we think it would have been: Season 2 would be based on Stella Sandell. This character personally feels very troubled and secretive.
We were shown a glimpse of her traumatic past in Season 1 of A Nearly Normal Family, wherein she was just 15 when she was sexually assaulted by an older counselor at her handball camp. She immediately tells her parents about it, but instead of going to the police, her parents tell her to keep it a secret and don’t do anything about it!
Why? They were afraid that nothing would happen to the assaulter, only Stella would be harmed. This incident left a deep scar on her life, and it ruined her relationship with her family.
[adinserter block=13]
This incident probably made her parents try so hard to save her from going to prison and made them constantly blame themselves for Stella’s arrest. On the other hand, this incident triggered her fight-or-flight instinct when she decided to save her friend from her boyfriend.
In Season 2, the case will be reopened when a police officer goes through the old files and finds something fishy with the case. So either a sequel or a prequel can do justice to this fan-favorite show.
