MobLand America follows a ruthless war between two powerful crime families in New York and Washington, D.C. Catherine “The Fixer” Pelee (Elizabeth Olsen) is the trusted problem-solver for Washington’s powerful Beaumont family, quietly handling their most dangerous affairs. But Catherine hides a second life from her husband, Peter Pelee (Robert Pattinson), an FBI organized-crime agent who has no idea his wife works for a criminal empire. As Beaumont patriarch Desmond Beaumont (Forest Whitaker) grows increasingly ill, Maggie Beaumont (Viola Davis) struggles to maintain order while Marcus “Duke” Beaumont (Cuba Gooding Jr.) secretly prepares to claim the family’s throne. Meanwhile, a reckless move by Danny Kearney (Benjamin Walker), son of New York crime boss Jack Kearney (Titus Welliver), shatters the fragile balance between the two families. As the conflict escalates, Catherine becomes trapped between organized crime, federal investigations, political influence, and betrayal from within. Senator Grant Hollis (Patrick Dempsey) secretly negotiates with both sides, while Peter’s former mentor Wade Harlan (Kyle Chandler) watches the growing crisis from Virginia. With the war spiraling beyond her control, Catherine turns to London fixer Harry Da Souza (Tom Hardy) for help. But Peter’s investigation brings him dangerously close to the Beaumont family, forcing Catherine’s criminal and personal lives toward an inevitable collision. Now she must decide how far she will go to protect her family, her marriage, and the empire she serves—before the truth destroys everything. By the season finale, Catherine faces the ultimate question: tell Peter the truth, or risk losing him forever.
