    Episode 2 - Secrets
    Jun 18 2024
    Threatened by Miles’ angry dad, Hal tries to diffuse the situation. Meanwhile, a second donor son joins 23AndMe. Hal learns quickly – most of his donor kids have no idea whatsoever they’re donor kids. They have all been their family secret.

    As Hal tries to diffuse the situation with Miles’ dad, he meets a second donor son (Sonny) and a donor daughter: BEKA. Unlike her donor siblings (her diblings), Beka knew she was donor-conceived before joining 23AndMe. Also, unlike her diblings, she was actually looking for Hal.

    Almost from the jump, Hal is drawn to Beka.

    If Hal’s relationship with Beka can be compared to a roller coaster ride (which it can!), then this is the part where the ride plunges terrifyingly. Somewhere between the start and end of a nine-hour bike ride, Hal’s relationship with Beka turns toxic.
