Story Plot
Now let us move on to the story plot of the dark comedy-action show Wayne. The story revolves around a boy whose name is Wayne. He hangs around his girlfriend Del. She is the one who is always by his side in the state of a broken soul, Wayne is in. He, along with Del, plan a roadway to find Trans-Am, a stolen thing belonging to his father.
Then follows the array of events that take place in this complex and fearsome journey with a mix of comedy. The first season ends with police taking Wayne away to send him back to Brockton, where he is going to face charges and legal happenings that occurred during the journey. During that phase, Del, the love interest of Wayne, gets separated from him by her father and brothers. And they expect to never see his face anymore.
Wayne’s first season was a mix of all emotions – romance, loneliness, anxiety, bloodshed, and violence too. The adventures of leading character Wayne have gripped so much interest among the audience that they cannot wait for another follow-up season 2. The concluding part of Wayne’s first season ended in a personal downpour for both lovers. If we go by showrunner speculation, the second season of Wayne would follow with Wayne lying in the Juvenile Center.
According to Simmons, if there is something that is disliking Wayne, then it is injustice. He just cannot tolerate it at any cost. Now to prove his innocence, he needs to make an effort to barge out and resolve the inaccuracies. The dark comedy show will put much emphasis on Wayne’s struggle to do his best in bringing back his love Del, and getting the peace he deserves.
