Well, Nancy's life just does not get any easier. And life in Agrestic does not get any less suburban. The community is taken over by a larger planned community, Majestic, a god-fearing Christian planned community.
In Weeds, Season 3 (2007) Nancy must deal with her son's pot-toking Jesus-loving new girlfriend, played scarily well by Mary-Kate Olsen, as well as other's trying to muscle in on her operation, U-Turn, and Guillermo, both gangsters. She also must continue to fend off local law enforcement and DEA, never mind her "friends" Celia, Heliya and Andy, all of whom continue to put her livelihood in jeopardy.
The third season continues to be subversive, undermining "traditional" values, which is why I enjoy the show so much. But by the end of it, Agrestic is burning down, a confluence of a rivals growing field being torched and Santa Ana winds. Everything is gone, and Nancy, the boys, and Andy are bugging out. Where are they going, and what will they do? Nancy's only real job skill in pot dealer...not something you put on every resume.
Fourth season is not out on DVD yet, but when it is, it will go to the top of my queue!
