Season 2, also created by Mike Schur, promises the same sharp wit and heartfelt performances as the first chapter. On the heels of his success at Pacific View Retirement Home in Season 1, the retiree-turned-mole heads to Wheeler College, where he goes undercover as an engineering professor to find out who is blackmailing the school’s president, Jack Beringer (Max Greenfield). Once on the leafy campus, Charles meets an enigmatic cast of suspects — played by Gary Cole, Michaela Conlin, Sam Huntington, David Strathairn, Jill Talley, Madison Hu, Lisa Gilroy, Linda Park, and Mary Steenburgen — who make this mystery particularly difficult to solve.
