About this listen

 Shower begins with Amanda and Brittany drifting through foggy thoughts and memories. They are unsure what is dream and what is real. So are you. All you know is that the tentacles are very very VERY real.

What follows is a series of rituals and revelations that tie their personal disorientation to a wider pattern. Old myths of brides of the sea, forgotten gods, and ritual cleansing re-emerge, placing even ordinary acts like bathing into the context of transformation. Meanwhile, Sarah and Kara uncover fragments of hidden lore, pointing toward ceremonies of binding and a looming figure known as the Old Groom.

By the end of the episode, it is clear that Shower is not just about cleansing but erasure. We are washing away memory and identity to make room for something else.
