Although the U.S. launch of Scrubr is a dismal failure, it piques the interest of a Chinese company that moves to acquire it and bring Edmund and Nora to Beijing for working with them. The end of the season showed Nora telling her father and grandmother that she plans to use the money she made in China to get her own apartment. Now the fans of the show have to wait to know if that will go better than the last time she left.
