Olive Kitteridge

Math teacher Olive Kitteridge attempts to help Kevin, a smart but timid student whose mother is suffering from depression. Her son Christopher isn't happy though. Henry goes on a hunting trip that concludes with a tragedy.

Kevin returns to Maine and Olive is able to convince him to stay over and attend Christopher's wedding-rehearsal dinner. Olive clashes with the bride's mother and scares the flower girl at the ceremony.

Christopher comes up with the idea of counseling after Olive and Henry have a scary episode following dinner with friends.

Olive goes to see Christopher and his second wife in New York, but soon returns to Maine, where she receives some bad news about Henry.
