Ep 2. Shed Your Skin

Wynonna Earp season 2 episode 2, titled Shed Your Skin, continues to follow the story of Wynonna Earp, a witty and confident descendent of the famous Wyatt Earp. This supernatural and western-themed series takes place in Purgatory, a town plagued by demons. Wynonna, with her cursed gun Peacemaker and her team, fights against these evil forces to protect the people of Purgatory.

In this episode, the hunt for the Widows, a group of deadly and powerful sisters, intensifies as they become more active. The Widows are searching for a particular ancient artifact that will give them unlimited power and they are willing to do anything to obtain it. This artifact is called the Seal of Solomon, and the Widows need the help of the revenants, the demons that live in Purgatory, to find it. Therefore, they strike a deal with a demon named Amon, who has the power to control the minds of humans and revenants alike. Amon promises the Widows to deliver the revenants to them in exchange for freedom from his captivity.

Meanwhile, Wynonna has her hands full dealing with personal problems. She is having second thoughts about her decision to lie to her sister Waverly about the curse and Peacemaker and feels guilty for keeping her in the dark. To make things worse, Doc Holliday, Wynonna's ex-lover, has returned to town, and she is not sure how to feel about it.

As the plot develops, Wynonna and her team discover that Amon has been hiding in an abandoned mental hospital in town, where he has been keeping the revenants that he has captured. They decide to infiltrate the hospital to find Amon and stop him before he can deliver the revenants to the Widows. However, things get complicated quickly when Wynonna and company realize that the hospital is not as abandoned as they thought. They encounter a group of survivors that have been hiding in the hospital for years, and they have no intention of letting go of their safety. These survivors have become paranoid, violent, and suspicious of outsiders. The team soon finds themselves trapped in the hospital and must fight with all they've got to accomplish their mission and survive.

The tension reaches its peak when the Widows and their minions arrive at the hospital to take the revenants and the Seal of Solomon. The situation becomes a battle for survival as the team fights the Widows, the revenants, and Amon with all they have. With more than one faction fighting and the hospital walls closing in, the team's mission becomes more challenging as the episode progresses.

Shed Your Skin is packed with action, suspense, and good moments of humor that keep the viewers on the edge of their seats from the beginning until the end. The characters continue to evolve and show their strengths and weaknesses, which help to make them more compelling and relatable. Moreover, the dialogue is spot on, just as witty and entertaining as before, and the visual effects are impressive, giving the supernatural side of the story a fantastic touch.

Overall, this episode is an excellent addition to the series, keeping the story as exciting as its predecessor, and providing excellent entertainment to those who watch it. Shed Your Skin is a must-see for fans of the show and anyone who loves a good mix of western and supernatural elements.
