Episode 2 recap

Brielle calls Naomi to say pre-op prep is complete and the surgical team is waiting. Naomi says goodbye and hangs up outside. She knows the scrolling comments spoke the truth. Going to the operating room will frame her for murder, but a direct refusal brings punishment. Naomi spots an open manhole on the sidewalk. She feigns a sprint toward the entrance and leaps down. Her right leg breaks, and she smiles as Brielle calls again.
