A Complete Recap of Season 2 Episode 10
Episode 10, titled “Never Been CRISPR’d,” centered on a risky gene-editing experiment. Watson’s friend, Hobie McSorley, rushed his girlfriend Wendy to the Holmes Clinic after she collapsed following a DIY genetic injection. Watson discovered Wendy’s reaction was not directly from the new injection, but from an allergy to a past genetic modification she had kept secret.
After stabilizing her, Wendy had a second, more severe reaction simply from being near Hobie, whose own modified biology triggered her allergy. Faced with the choice of never touching Wendy again or risking his life, Hobie chose to reverse all his genetic modifications despite the danger.
The episode also dealt with the ongoing mystery of Sherlock Holmes. Holmes, who had been secretly living in an unused part of the hospital, showed serious signs of memory loss and instability. Watson urged him to get medical help, but Holmes refused and then disappeared from the clinic.
Personally, Watson faced a romantic dilemma. Encouraged by Hobie to confess his feelings to Laila, Watson instead went to see Dr. Mary Morstan. He found Mary kissing another man, leaving his personal future uncertain.
What to Expect in Episode 11 Storylines
Episode 11 will pick up the storylines left open in the fall finale, likely focusing on three main areas.
1. The Search for Sherlock Holmes
Sherlock’s disappearance is expected to become a major focus. Watson will likely intensify his search, concerned about Holmes’s declining mental and physical health. The show may explore whether Holmes is a real person or a figment of Watson’s imagination, a question that has been central to the season. This search could push Watson into challenging professional and ethical situations as he tries to help his friend.
2. Personal Fallout for Dr. Watson
Watson must deal with the emotional impact of seeing Mary with someone else. This event could force him to reassess his feelings for both Mary and Laila and decide where his personal priorities lie. His actions in the upcoming episode will clarify his intentions after the cliffhanger ending.
3. Consequences of Hobie’s Choice
The aftermath of Hobie’s dangerous decision to reverse his modifications will continue to affect the clinic. The story will likely show the medical results of his actions and the emotional impact on his relationship with Wendy. This plotline lets the show continue its exploration of the risks and ethics of experimental medicine.
Season 2 of Watson is planned to have a total of 20 episodes. This means Episode 11 starts the second half of the season, with nine more episodes to follow, expected to air weekly on Sundays. This extended season allows for deeper development of the show’s central mysteries.
