“Off Campus”' Mika Abdalla Breaks Down That 'Heated' Finale Cliffhanger and Teases Season 2 (Exclusive)

Warning: This story contains spoilers for the season 1 finale ofOff Campus.

NEED TO KNOW

• Season 1 of Off Campus leaves off with a major cliffhanger involving Allie (Mika Abdalla) and Dean (Stephen Kalyn)

• Abdalla breaks down what's to come for Allie after that twist and teases season 2 as she reveals she's received the first two scripts: "It's all very real"

• Off Campus is now streaming on Prime Video

There's a bit of a mess on Allie Hayes's hands at the end ofOff Campusseason 1.

After getting involved with Dean (Stephen Kalyn) — Allie and Dean are the subject of the third book inElle Kennedy's series,The Score, and season 1 of the Prime Video show adapted the first book,The Deal— after her breakup with Sean (Riley Davis), Allie started to panic about falling back into old patterns. In the hopes of slowing things down between her and Dean, she suggested they both sleep with other people, and then she slept with the mysterious Carter St. James (Charlie Evans), whom she'd previously kissed, after running into him on campus.

In the final moments of season 1, Carter walked into Malone's and a nightmare unfolded for Allie. Dean put the pieces together that she had slept with Carter, just after he revealed that he didn't want to see other people, and Carter St. James's true identity was revealed: he's actually Hunter Davenport, the protagonist of Kennedy'sThe Play, a book in herOff Campusspinoff series,Briar U.

"We were all surprised by it,"Mika Abdalla, who plays Allie, tells PEOPLE of the twist. "I think it's really great. "It's really fun to throw someone else into the mix for Allie, just fresh out of her relationship, freaking out about this relationship [with Dean]."

"It's nice to pump the brakes a little bit," Abdalla, 26, says. "I'm excited to see what goes on from there, because that's a pretty heated way to end the season."

She reveals the season was originally "supposed to end differently, and then we had to change that, for reasons that will be revealed later," and the Hunter twist was instead introduced.

Hunter's arrival in the series was "like the freaking nuclear codes," Abdalla says. "We needed to not talk about that. No one was allowed to know who that man was, which was hilarious." The cast was explicitly told not to "follow" Evans on social media or otherwise engage with him to avoid spoiling his arrival. "We weren't allowed to do a freaking thing with that man. They kept it locked up."

Showrunner Louisa Levy tells PEOPLE that the decision to bring Hunter into the fold "allowed us to tee up potential future seasons that we might be able to explore, and also tee up a little bit of Dean's backstory that we might be able to get into in future seasons as well."

As she points out, Hunter is a character that appears inThe Score,Dean and Allie's book, "just in a small way," so she and the writers found it a "fun opportunity" to "pull from the later books and use those characters to build out" the world on the college campus. "I have no idea how fans are going to react to it, but I'm very excited to see."

Off Campuswas renewed forseason 2before season 1 premiered, but Prime Video has not yet confirmed which couple it'll follow. On her character's behalf, Abdalla says she is "not excited" about the next installment, as she anticipates some major challenges for Allie. "I am excited about it as an actor," she says. "I am excited for the deep emotional turmoil that Allie is going through, because I think that'll be a lot of fun [to play], and that's not really something I got to play around with too, too much this season."

"I am excited to see the inner workings of her. It's really fun to play such a vibrant, larger-than-life character, who also has these extremely deep feelings about herself and the world around her. It's such a balance," Abdalla continues. "I'm excited to do the puzzle of Allie."

Abdalla has received scripts for the first two episodes of season 2, she confirms, which is "very exciting," and the cast returns to Vancouver to start filming shortly. "It's all very real," she says of the next installment.

Off Campusseason 1 is now streaming on Prime Video.

NEED TO KNOW

• She shared that she had severe back and sciatica pain while pregnant with Aire and gained 65 pounds

• Jenner revealed she was on bed rest during Aire's pregnancy, because she was three centimeters dilated for around two months

Kylie Jennerdetailed how her second pregnancy was decidedly more difficult than her first.

Jenner appeared on the Wednesday, May 13 episode of Jake Shane's podcast,Therapuss, where she opened up about being pregnant with her younger child,Aire Webster.

The Kylie Cosmetics founder, 28, explained that she's been struggling with back pain for the past three and a half years, but the pain worsened when she was pregnant with Aire. She said that she woke up one day at 12 weeks pregnant and couldn't walk.

"I had crazy sciatica pain and crazy lower back pain," Jenner shared, before adding she had "high expectations" of the pregnancy, because she was in the "best shape" of her life. "I really wanted to work out," she continued.

She noted that when she was pregnant with her first baby,Stormi, she gained 60 pounds, weighing 200 pounds when she gave birth. While carrying Aire, she gained 65 pounds, leading her to weigh 210 pounds at his birth. Jenner shares Aire, 4, and Stormi, 8, with exTravis Scott.

She explained that her "nausea was horrible" when she was pregnant with Aire, and if she didn't eat, it would be "really bad," confessing that she "ate everything."

"I ate a pint of ice cream every night — I just dove right in,” she said. "I had lots of ice cream. Just lots of carbs. Bagels."

She told Shane, 26, that her pregnancy with Stormi was much easier and more of a "breeze."

Jenner explained that while pregnant with Aire, there were times she couldn't leave her bed, "because I was in so much back pain and sciatica pain."

"And lots of things were happening with my vagina," she continued. "I was three centimeters dilated for like a month and a half, two months, the baby was falling out," she said, adding that her doctor instructed her to stay in bed.

She also recalled initially "freaking out" when she found out she was pregnant with Stormi at 19. "I was freaking out. I was really scared to tell my parents," she confessed. "I was really scared." She later said that once she told her parents, "no one was mad."

"But there was something just inside of me that knew that I wanted to do this, and I had to make a decision for myself," Jenner said. "And even if I have to do this alone, or however, this is the choice that I'm going to make."

Jenner opened up about deciding to keep her first pregnancy a secret from the public and the paparazzi. "I really didn't leave the house. I felt like at the time, you know, reflecting back to it, I felt like I was protecting myself. And I was in a way," she said.

She noted how after sheannouncedthe news, she "sobbed for three hours because it felt like so much weight on my shoulders."

"[It was] just a big thing that I was, hiding from the world. And I was worried about everyone's reactions," Jenner said. "It was just so emotional. And I'm like, 'Maybe next time I wouldn't do that.' "

Gen Z think being 10 minutes late to work is OK. I can’t stand it

Explaining Miranda Priestly’s schedule to the new intern in the originalDevil Wears Prada, Nigel – the art director – says: “She’s always 15 minutes early… Which means you’re already late.”

A punchy line, but hardly an original thought. “If you’re on time, you’re late” is an age-old mantra used by dragon bosses since (just before) the beginning of time. But apparently Gen Znever got the memo.

According to research compiled by Meeting Canary – an online meeting company – almost half of those aged between 16 to 26 believe that being five to 10 minutes late to work is “basically” being on time.

This is unlikely to surprise anyone. After all, what is punctuality about? It’s about respect, about acknowledging that there is a hierarchy in professional life. That some people and things are actually more important than you (as mind-blowing as that is): than your recent break-up,your pronouns, your food and gender whimsies, your wildly fluctuating mental health.

It’s also about mental rigour – discipline. Another word that’s likely to furrow Gen Z brows. Maybe there isn’t always a cast-iron reason why you have to be at your desk at 9am rather than 9.17am. Maybe you can get away with arriving late and leaving early, just keep skimming and skiving on everyone else’s dime. Or maybe your boss is also Gen Z, and you happen to know that she’s taking a “duvet day” with herJellycat plushies. But what if, as a point of personal pride, you decide you’ll be there by 9am regardless?

Pride is definitely worth trying, in my experience. Combined with discipline, it may even leave you feeling better than a couple of hours’ bed-rotting and doom-scrolling on TikTok.

Far more surprising than Gen Z lateness was how forgiving millennials were of this generational flaw. But while around 40 per cent of them said they would overlook colleagues running 10 minutes behind schedule, this dropped to just 26 per cent for Gen X and 20 per cent for baby boomers.

I’m Gen X and I consider myself to be pretty laid back in most respects, but lateness? That sends me off the dial. Because it’s my time you’re stealing, and I care about that more than anything else.

A fortnight ago, I waited patiently for a shop near Marylebone Station to open so that I could buy my parents some chocolates before boarding the train. Inside was a blonde in her early 20s, enjoying a conversation on her mobile phone.

Now, having established her age, I didn’t expect her to let me in a second earlier than the designated 9am opening time (even though if that had been me, and I could see a customer waiting outside, I might have forced myself to open the door at 8.58am). But when 9am came and went, still she didn’t open the door – still she laughed and joked on her iTeat?

It was 9.07am by the time the blonde sloth finished her call and dragged herself to the door. And at seeing the fury on my face, she looked confused. After all, in her world she was pretty much bang on time.

Tom Brady crashes Kevin Hart’s Netflix roast. Here are his best burns

New England PatriotslegendTom Bradywas the surprise guest and instant MVP of Netflix's"The Roast of Kevin Hart"on Sunday, May 10.

Wearing all black, the five-time Super Bowl MVP strolledinto Los Angeles' Kia Forum to throwsome bombs two years after Kevin Hart hosted"The Greatest Roast of All Time: The Roast of Tom Brady"in the same arena in May 2024. Brady was brutal on Hart during his brief cameo appearance.

"Have you even left The Forum?"Bradyasked Hart after his unbilled entrance, "Or have you just been here screaming into that light for the last two years, waiting for Daddy to come home? Well, unlike your real dad, I actually showed up. And I brought you a jersey."

Here's what thePatriots Hall of Famersaid.

Tom Brady's rapid-fire shots at Kevin Hart

Brady then presented the diminutive Hart with a mini-New York Knicks jersey. "That's newborn size," Brady said. "It fits you."

Hart was an infamously harsh host of the 2024 Brady roast, which the former superstar NFL quarterback has not forgotten.

"You said, 'Time to get comfortable with being uncomfortable,'" Brady said onstage, mocking Hart as host. "Who's squirming in the highchair now? Put a pillow under there to make you look taller."

Brady took issue with the "Jumanji" star Hart following him in the Netflix roast saga.

"I played in the NFL for 23 seasons, but I've never seen anyone drop the ball like this," said Brady. "How did the GOAT roast go from me to you? I won seven Super Bowls; Kevin has made two 'Ride Along' movies. I've won five Super Bowl MVP awards. Kevin, you're the third most famous person in 'Jumanji.'"

Brady then ripped into Hart's 2026 roasters, who included host Shane Gillis, NBA star Draymond Green, Chelsea Handler, and lesser-known comics such as Sheryl Underwood and Big Jay Oakerson.

"Who are these people and how did they get here? I thought they shutdown Spirit Airlines,"said Brady, who called the celebrity line-up "pathetic."

Brady takes a shot at Eagles and Cowboys fans

Brady landed a double NFL jab with a joke about Philadelphia native Hart's love of the NFL Eagles.

"We've got some real Eagles fans here, not like Kevin, who shows up for the big games when the Eagles are playing well," said Brady. "We have a name for these fans, they're called 'Cowboys fans.'"

Brady made a move at Hart's wife in the audience

Hart made jokes about Brady's family at the 2024 roast, and Brady returned the favor in 2026.

"Kevin, you took a lot of shots at my family in the roast. But I'm too classy to go after your beautiful wife. Or am I?" Brady asked. He located Eniko Hart in the audience and asked smoothly, "What's up, girl?"

The comment prompted Hart to yell, "Cut it out!" from his seat.

Brady expressed joy about watching the event and exited the stage unscathed. He gave a final parting shot.

"Payback's a *expletive* and so are you, Kevin Hart," Brady said before exiting. He didn't drop the mic, but he should have.

How to watch 'The Roast of Kevin Hart'

The "Roast of Kevin Hart" streamed live on Netflix on May 10 from the Kia Forum and is available on the streaming platform.
