Season 2 Synopsis
Notes from the Underbelly returns for its second season. An ensemble comedy, the story centres around Andrew and Lauren who are expecting their first baby.
The show chronicles the challenges they face as they get closer to their baby's arrival. In Season 1 the first challenge was lying to everyone about being pregnant for the first three months until it was safe to tell people.
In the first Season 2 episode:
Realising he may be a pushover, Andrew forces himself to be more assertive. It proves to be a big turn-on for Lauren, until he embraces his opinions to the point where the delicate balance of their relationship is threatened.
Eric and Julie hire a nanny who refuses to divulge the secret swaddling technique that instantly calms Baby Perry.
Meanwhile, Danny and Cooper find themselves "accidentally dating" when he starts cooking for her in return for legal aid.
