The third season of Netflix’s ‘Ginny & Georgia’ picks up after the events of Georgia and Paul’s wedding, where she was arrested for murdering her neighbour, Thomas Fuller. She spends a weekend in prison before Paul’s lawyer arrives to bail her out of prison and into house arrest. As the case gains momentum and the prosecution reveals all that they have against Georgia, it turns out that the arrest was nothing in comparison to what awaits her. After another season of scheming a way out of some very tight places, Georgia and her kids finally arrive in a place of stability, but even that comes with a cost. SPOILERS AHEAD.

Ginny & Georgia Season 3 Plot Recap

While Georgia prepares to face the music, Ginny’s life spirals out of control as she is confronted by an increasingly real possibility of seeing her mother go to prison. This starts affecting her relationship with her friends, especially as she drifts away from Max. Marcus is going through issues of his own, due to which he has put a distance between himself and Ginny, but that doesn’t mean he has stopped loving her. The break-up leads Ginny to find comfort in a new romance with Wolfe, a guy she meets in her poetry class.

Things get from bad to worse for Georgia when the prosecution calls the PI who dug up her past and puts her previous crimes on the table. She is labelled a serial killer, and while the judge decides not to let her past be a factor in the current trial, she has already lost in the court of public opinion. This also impacts her relationship with Paul, who realises that he didn’t know anything about Georgia when he married her. The more he finds out about her lies, the more he pushes her away. Ginny’s dalliances with Wolfe get her pregnant, and while this breaks her relationship with Wolfe, it does bring her back to Marcus, who becomes an alcoholic.

Meanwhile, Gil sees his opportunity and gets the social services to have Ginny and Austin removed from Georgia’s care. He finally gets to be with his son, while Ginny goes to live with Zion and his new girlfriend, Simone, who happens to be an accomplished criminal defense attorney. Simone also sees how much hold Georgia still has over Zion, which affects their relationship, but when the time comes, she decides to help Georgia win the case, even though it is Ginny’s work behind the scenes that saves the day.

Georgia’s Lie About Her Pregnancy Turns Into the Truth

Georgia’s survival instincts make her all kinds of things, and during her trial, one of those things is to trap Paul. When her lies and crimes come to the surface, he decides to leave her, and while that is a heartbreak, it is also a huge blow to her trial if her husband is not seen supporting her. To get him to come back home, she tells him she is pregnant. She shows him the positive pregnancy test taken by Ginny earlier that day, and as expected, it does the trick. Gleeful with the possibility of becoming a father, he comes back home, and slowly, things start to get better between them, but then he realises that she has been lying, and he leaves her for good.

In this difficult time, as the possibility of losing the trial and going to prison for life seems imminent, Georgia decides to flee the house, which is when Joe comes around. The thought of her leaving and them never seeing each other again leads them to act on their feelings, and they have sex. Eventually, Georgia wins the trial, especially after Austin and Cynthia’s testimonies point a finger towards Gil. Now that she is back home, Georgia decides to focus on her children and wants to be single for a while. But then, Ginny notices that she is drinking milk, which is what she does when she is pregnant, or at least, that’s what she told Ginny.

Because we haven’t seen Georgia drink milk in general, we know that this incident stands out, and it becomes even more important considering that Georgia had sex with Joe and Paul in a small span of time, which means that either of them could be the father. With her pregnancy, the show sets up the conflict for the fourth season, where the identity of her baby’s father will decide whether she and Paul find a way to get back together or if she and Joe finally get together officially and start thinking about building a family together. Knowing Georgia, things are bound to get more complicated, even though she has promised Ginny that she will change and do better. It remains to be seen how she honors this promise with this new development.

Who Drives by Georgia’s House?

One of the things that Georgia’s trial does is make her famous overnight. Suddenly, she is being talked about on national TV, and all details of her past are being discussed with all sorts of stories being concocted about her. Since her face is on TV, people from her past are bound to see it too. Her father, who is in prison, calls her to warn her about this. He mentions his mother and stepfather, who have quite a grudge against her. The last time they saw her was when she shot her stepfather in the hand while her mother watched. During the trial, he sees her on TV and calls out to her mother.

The fact that we see them drive by her house in the end shows that Georgia’s biological father’s concerns were not unfounded. All her life, Georgia has run from things, but in Wellsbury, she intends to stay because she has built a home for herself and her children, while also forming relationships that are hard to walk away from. This means that when trouble comes knocking this time, she won’t be able to run and will be forced to stand her ground, especially with the possibility of a new baby in the picture. Her mother and stepfather’s return at this time means that more trouble is brewing for her on the horizon, and because neither of her children has seen either of them, there is a good chance that they will target Ginny and Austin first.

In any case, this is yet another instance of Georgia’s past catching up with her, and it remains to be seen how she will handle them this time, especially considering that she has promised her daughter she will change and won’t kill anyone else. It seems that the show has already given us her next victims for the upcoming season, and it will be interesting to see how she handles them this time around, when she is already in the limelight for murder accusations and has much more to lose.

What Happens to Marcus?

While the trial takes up most of Ginny and Georgia’s time, their neighbours across the street don’t seem to be faring any better either. In the previous season, Marcus revealed his battle with depression, which was one of the reasons why he broke up with Ginny. He felt like he couldn’t love and take care of himself, which meant that he wouldn’t be able to love and take care of Ginny the way she deserves. He tries to get better as he gets therapy, and her parents build him an art studio in the garage. However, the pressure of getting better starts messing with his head, and this pushes him off his healing wagon, leaving him in a rather precarious position. With no one to turn to for support, Marcus turns to alcohol.

He uses it to calm his nerves so he can attend the dance, which he didn’t want to go to but had to because of his mother and Ginny. That night, he vandalised the English teacher’s office, and that led to his suspension for one month. This isolates him even further, and secretly, he slips into addiction. Because the alcohol helps him be in a good mood and because her parents are too desperate to see him do better, they don’t notice that he has been doing worse. Georgia is one of the first people to see the signs, especially after she notices that Marcus steals a bottle of alcohol from her place after he fixes her window. She tells Ellen about it, but she is still not ready to accept it until she actually sees Marcus drunk.

Max pleads with her mother to get Marcus to rehab, but Ellen worries that sending him away will not do any good. Moreover, with his bad grades, he won’t be able to graduate if he doesn’t go to summer school, which is what Ellen wants him to focus on. Eventually, however, she comes to the realisation that her son cannot focus on her education and career while battling the demon of alcoholism. In the end, we see the mother and son driving to a rehab facility, which is a positive sign for Marcus, who had been in free fall this entire season. In his bag, he finds Ginny’s love poem, Sunshine, which she wrote about him, and reading it shows him how much light there is inside him. Hopefully, her words will help him through his journey, and we will find him in a much better place by the time Season 4 rolls around.

What Happens to Gil? Is He Arrested?

The entire third season of ‘Ginny & Georgia’ focuses on Georgia’s trial. If she had been innocent of the crime she was accused of, things would have been much easier. But with her being the culprit and almost all evidence stacked against her, there is a moment where it seems that she will lose the case and go to prison for good. While she begins to accept this reality, Ginny refuses to lose her mother. If Georgia’s resignation wasn’t enough, the discovery that Austin will be taken to Michigan by Gil makes her even more desperate to win the case. She knows that the only way her mother will walk free is if someone else is painted as a murderer, and after careful consideration, she sees Gil as the most obvious choice.

He makes it easier for her when he almost attacks her and leaves a mark on her arm. She uses it to gain Austin’s sympathy and make him angry enough towards his father to falsely testify in court that he saw Gil kill Thomas. To increase the chances for her mother, she also blackmails Cynthia about her affair with Joe, due to which Cynthia testifies that there was a chance that Gil could have been in the house the night her husband died. These things allow the jury to declare Georgia innocent, and she goes back home a free woman. But these allegations against Gil mean that he is in another set of trouble.

Gil has already been to prison because of Georgia, who framed him for embezzlement, which he wasn’t exactly innocent of. He hated her for taking his son away from him, and now that she is facing a trial, he finally has his son to himself. As bad as he may have been towards Georgia, he is nothing but loving towards his son, though a bit controlling, and Austin sees that too. While he cares about his mother, he also likes spending time with his father. So, in the end, when his sister manipulates him into telling a lie in court, he breaks Gil’s heart, but also his own.

No matter what Georgia and Ginny thought of Gil, Austin loved him, and being forced to send his own father to prison deeply impacts his psyche. It would be wrong to assume that this is the last we have seen of Gil because a simple accusation won’t be enough to throw him back in prison for good. While it will keep him busy and away from Georgia and her kids for a while, he might find a way to come back to his son, even though he is wounded by Austin’s betrayal. The next time, his son might finally choose him, especially considering the evident problems in his and Ginny’s relationship in the last few minutes of the season.
