The Bad Guy season 2 is played out on the war for Suro's untraceable archive, years of wiretaps between the boss and big shots of the State. Everyone wants it: Nino, Luvi, Major Testanuda, Teresa, Leonarda. The archive thus becomes an existential battlefield between past and future, a time bomb ready to explode in the hands of whoever manages to get hold of it.
Nino, arriving in front of Suro, understands that there is a superior enemy: all those people who for years have helped the boss in his fugitive status. People very dear to Nino. To have proof and discover who is involved, you have to get to the archive. The same archive that Luvi, his wife, is also looking for to erase a secret linked to her past that she would like to get rid of.
Nino convinces Teresa to get her hands on the archive and so she sets up an appointment with Calogero, unaware that Leonarda and Costardello are with the man. But he is not the only one who wants the archive, the State is also looking for it and Testanuda is willing to do anything to find it. Luvi, meanwhile, gets dangerously close to a truth that could change her life.
Nino runs away with Suro, an unlikely traveling companion, with the hope of being able to return to his old life. However, he has not taken into account what those who have decided to protect the corrupt part of the State are willing to do. And above all, he has not taken into account the fact that Luvi's life is about to collide with his own.
Suro has been arrested, the objective of Nino Scotellaro, a former magistrate, has been accomplished. But can Nino's thirst for truth and revenge really end with this arrest? This is what Nino asks himself as he returns home for the showdown with Luvi, while his sister Leonarda sets out on the trail of Balduccio Remora, unaware that her brother is behind that name.
Nino and Teresa intend to wage war on the State. To do so, they need the support of the entire gynaeceum of Suro sisters and cousins, a myriad of mice, and eight hundred copies of The Count of Monte Cristo. Meanwhile, Leonarda continues her research to find Balduccio Remora, while Luvi, repentant, seeks a way to find evidence of the State's collusion and bring justice.
The State on one side, Cosa Nostra on the other, Nino and Teresa have reopened negotiations with the State and for Nino the goal is clear: to get to the archive, at any cost. But is it really by reaching that truth that Nino will find his peace? Unfortunately, he has not yet come to terms with his new enemies who are, if that is possible, more ruthless than those of the past.
