In the second episode of Unexpected season 1, titled "Mother's Nightmare," the focus is on a few different teenage girls and their struggles with pregnancy and motherhood.

Lexus, a 15-year-old cheerleader from rural Colorado, is dealing with the aftermath of telling her parents that she's pregnant. Her mother is supportive, but her father is angry and disappointed. Lexus is also struggling to communicate with her boyfriend, Shayden, who seems to be avoiding her calls. Meanwhile, Lexus's friend McKayla is also pregnant, and the two girls try to support each other as they navigate this challenging time.

Another teenage mother who is featured in this episode is Lilly, a 16-year-old from Oregon who has just given birth to a little boy. Lilly's mother is a recovering addict who wants to help her daughter, but struggles with the responsibilities of being a caregiver. Lilly's boyfriend, James, is also struggling to adjust to his new role as a father. The episode shows some touching moments between Lilly and her new baby, as well as some difficult conversations between her and her family.

Finally, we meet the newest member of the Unexpected cast: 16-year-old McKayla. At the beginning of the episode, McKayla is still in denial about her pregnancy, insisting to her friends that she's not showing yet. However, her mother is convinced that McKayla is pregnant and confronts her about it. McKayla's boyfriend Caelan seems supportive, but is also dealing with the stress of his own family issues.

Throughout the episode, these young mothers and fathers grapple with the reality of their new roles, and the challenges of raising a child while still being a teenager. They also face judgment and criticism from others, including strangers who make rude comments and relatives who question their choices.

Overall, "Mother's Nightmare" is a thought-provoking and emotional episode that sheds light on the difficulties faced by young parents. The show does a good job of capturing the highs and lows of parenthood, as well as the complex relationships between parents, children, and grandparents. Viewers will likely feel sympathy and compassion for these young people as they navigate this difficult and life-changing experience.
