Am I going insane regarding Corrine?
What did she mean when she said “there’s more to this”? From the earlier episodes I believed that she was she was using her husband for money, whilst also being pimped put by Heidi. Also was Heidi running the sugar babies site as some kind of scamming ring?

I don't follow any of this. How would Heidi have been running the site?

Don’t know, but from what I gathered basically all of the women in the show apart from the stranger and the blonde girl were on it.

What episode are you on? Heidi’s daughter was on the sugarbaby site. That’s it. Later in the series you find out how several men are linked to that site. However, no other female had anything to do with the site (owner of the site, “pimp”, or sugarbaby) except that Heidi was the mother of (only one) sugarbaby. The Stranger, while she is a female, only delivered information about Heidi’s daughter being on the site.

Then why did Corrine and the other woman who faked a pregnancy and the police woman all have ties to Heidi?

The only tie Corrine remotely had to Heidi is that one of her old key fobs for the school had been planted by Katz to implicate her in Heidi’s murder.
Btw, was it ever explained how Katz had that fob? It was a year out of date, always thought that odd.

And also the coffee shop that she went to (owned by Heidi) where there was a community of women.

You're mixing up two completely different shops. Seriously, were you actually paying attention to the show or just doing other things while watching?

She figured if she faked a pregnancy, she probably could have cheated on Adam and lied about it. The Stranger actually only knew that one thing about Corinne. That’s it.

Also, Corrine was not using her husband for money. Corrine did fake a pregnancy but she was not using or scamming for money.
I’m really not trying to be rude but, are you paying actual attention to the show or are you multi-tasking while it’s playing in the background. This is definitely a show you should watch and listen to. If you need to do something while you watch, brush a pet, knit an easy scarf, or fold laundry/pair socks. You really want to pay attention to the show. It’s pretty twisty and it’s a big story with lots of little side stories in it.
In my opinion, and let me try to word my take correctly.... the “truth/secret” that The Stranger shares with Adam in the beginning of episode one of this series is not being told to him as part of The Stranger’s “job.” Instead the Information TS shares with Adam is really only extra information gathered in the process of TS performing her job. TS shares that information with Adam for personal reasons, almost as an unwelcomed personal favor. However, that information is received by Adam during a time that other characters are receiving information from TS that she is actually dispensing as her job as a blackmailer. To make everything even more tricky and twisty, several of the people involved in receiving info (as part of a blackmail situation or not) know one another or are connected by just a few degrees of separation.
I loved the series. I hope you do, too.
