EPISODE CONTEXT

Following Episode 1's setup of Jolyne's arrest and imprisonment, this second episode shifts from origin story to survival story, grounding her in the prison ecosystem and introducing the first Stand-adjacent threat she'll face behind bars. It's an essential early-game episode that establishes the rules of engagement for the season — both the human dangers and the supernatural ones. The groundwork laid here with Gwess and Jolyne's evolving abilities feeds directly into the escalating conflicts that define the first half of this 12-episode run.
