Following some drama around a gator farm, are you ready for something more entering Poker Face season 2 episode 5? Well, there is a lot to be excited about here!

First and foremost, Charlie Cale is once more taking off to another new place, and getting a new job along the way. This time around, her goal is to help out a minor-league baseball team — in this case, a fairly terrible one. What can she actually do? Well, make sure that the team has plenty of supplies … but then also solve a murder along the way.

Want to learn more about what is ahead here? Then check out the full Poker Face season 2 episode 5 synopsis below:

While working as a ball girl for a bad minor league team, Charlie suspects foul play in the death of one of the players.

Now, here is where we should go ahead and note that there is not that much about this story that is necessarily shocking anyone — but that is not also the point. This show is more about comfort and nostalgia and for now, the real appeal is simply getting the chance to watch Charlie in a wide array of different fish-out-of-water situations. How does she handle this, and is she going to be able to put some bad people away? This is the sort of stuff that we are excited to learn about, especially since we get reminded, time and time again, that not every story is going to end the same way. Some, after all, are going to be stuffed full of different resolutions.

Through all of this, perhaps the thing we are most curious about is whether or not there is going to be another long-term story that eventually emerges — and also, will it be tied to what happened to Steve Buscemi’s somewhat mysterious character?
