As the late ’60s become the early ’70s, the world and our characters are all about revolution. Bras are burning, sex is everywhere, and William Masters and Virginia Johnson reap the benefits and the pressures of the revolution they’ve let loose in the world. Personally, they begin the season at odds and burdened by lies, only to slowly switch roles in both their work and the bedroom, as they slowly, painstakingly, and surprisingly find their way back to one another.
