Season 2, Episode 1 -  Aired September 20, 2017

After wiping their minds, Michael tries for a second time to convince Eleanor, Chidi, Tahani and Jason that they are in the Good Place, but their suspicions are raised from the start.

Quote from Michael

Michael: How's it going?
Gayle: [sighs] We're having some trouble with Eleanor. She's not engaging in conversation, she's not drinking.
Michael: Eleanor's not drinking? She brought a flask in the car during her driver's test! Okay, we need to keep things moving here. I'm about to make her talk for an hour. She'll definitely end up insulting somebody. [glass ringing] Speech time!

Quote from Michael

Luang: It's not that bad, right? I mean, we got a drunken speech. That's good.
Michael: No. It isn't. Tahani gave the drunken speech instead of Eleanor. We can't build a chaos sequence out of Tahani's speech, because she thinks she belongs here... ding-dong. Okay, we can still salvage this. Where's Eleanor?
Angelique: She's gone. I can't find her anywhere.
Bambadjan: Maybe she left with Chidi? He's gone too.
Michael: What?
Luang: Or maybe she left with Jason.
Michael: You lost Jason? How is that even possible? You're only job is to stand next to that idiot.
Luang: I got distracted by the fire! I love fire. You know, my main job is to burn people with fire.

Quote from Michael

Chris Baker: What's up, guys?
Michael: What are you doing here? Why aren't you with Eleanor?
Chris Baker: Oh, I told her I was going to the gym again.
Michael: Why would you say that in the middle of a party?
Chris Baker: You told me too.
Michael: No, I didn't.
Chris Baker: You said that if Eleanor tries to confess that she doesn't belong here, find a reason to avoid her, like saying, "I'm going to the gym," so that's what I've been saying.
Michael: That was a suggestion of the type of thing you could say! Don't... How many times have you specifically told her you were going to the gym?
Chris Baker: Five. No, nine.
Michael: You dimwit!
Chris Baker: Hey, man! I was perfectly happy in my old job in the twisting department. People came in, and I twist them until they snapped in half, and I move on to the next one. But this job... is weird! It's all talk, no twisting. So if you don't like the way I do it, get somebody else. [removes shirt] I'm going to the gym!
Michael: Fine. Yeah, you do that. You go to the gym.
Michael: Okay, we can still pull this off, we just need to find the four humans. Okay? Okay. [chuckles] Right now. Everyone in this room, find those four humans!

Quote from Michael

Michael: Ah! Eleanor and Chidi. What a pleasant surprise. I'm so happy you two have met. I'm just going door-to-door, apologizing for the commotion earlier tonight. The first night in the afterlife can be a little overwhelming.
Eleanor: Don't worry about us, Michael. We are doing just fine.
Michael: Oh, good, good. Glad to hear that. Well, it's getting late. Chidi, allow me to escort you back to your house.

Quote from Eleanor

Chris Baker: Babe, there you are. I've been worried...
Eleanor: Let me stop you. Can I guess? You've been worried sick about me.
Chris Baker: [removes shirt] I'm headed to the gym.
Michael: Sure, why not?
