Hopeless! Schism! Mutual loathing! These are just some of the words to describe the state of Tab and Selena's relationship when the mother-daughter duo's forced to go their separate ways, lest their bitter memories of the past compel them to straight-up murder each other. But murder's not off the table completely when Selena's set upon by the Braintrust, a multiversal mafia to whom Selena's in deep debt. If only she could remember why? The plot thickens as MOTHERLANDS drives toward its unbelievable climax.
