It's been two weeks since the mysterious dome descended upon the town, with the possibility of escape becoming increasingly unlikely. However, there might be hope for at least one character, if not more, to make their way outside the dome. "This is the search to get out," executive producer Neal Baer tells TVGuide.com of Season 2. "This is the season of new mysteries that unfold and one of those new mysteries will be if there is a way out."
More importantly, the second season will also explore exactly why the dome is there — other than Alien Alice saying it was placed there to protect them. "We deal with that throughout the whole season, asking why is it here? What is it for? That's the journey that our characters are going on," Baer says, promising that we'll see more of how the outside world reacts to the presence of the dome.
But not everyone will agree on exactly what has been keeping them under the dome. The argument between science and faith taking a stronger foothold in the second season thanks to the introduction of high school science teacher Rebecca (Karla Crome), who will butts heads with new leader Julia. "This season is about faith vs. science with this notion of what can be understood scientifically and what can only be understood based on faith," Baer says. "That's a theme that occurs throughout the season and it's illustrated through some of the trials that the inhabitants of Chester's Mill face: A plague of pretty desperate proportions, acid rain and dust storms and things like that."
