No Needles

The Innocents Season 1 Episode 4 Recap

A pregnant nurse, Deborah, examined June. Harry urged her to test June for everything to get to the bottom of her shifting ability. A syringe triggered June’s shift state, and she transformed into Deborah’s pregnant form. They escaped, going by June’s father and brother in the process. Steinar followed them back to Deborah’s house. Then he and Alf waited until she was alone.

Harry and June argued because June wanted to stay as Deborah. The pregnancy felt real, and June was tapping into Deborah’s memories. Harry left to find a store, and Steinar made his move. He seemed to be approaching June all wrong, roughly handling and scaring her, instead of calmly persuading her. He tried to get her with a syringe again, but Alf followed and fought him. Harry and June ran off and hid in a garage. Steinar was scared off by the police, and Harry helped June find herself again to transform back.
