They take him to Xavier’s art studio and tie him down on the chair with chains. Wednesday starts interrogating him. As it turns out, Tyler’s mom was a Hde and she thinks Tyler got the genes from her. Wednesday pleads that being a son of an outcast doesn’t necessarily make him a monster. Wednesday is not moved by his fake tears and switches it up to some “light torture.”
The sirens didn’t sign up to see someone being tortured so they leave her on her own and report her to the principle. The principle calls the sheriff who was listening to Dr Kinbott’s assessment of Tyler in their therapy session. Before her death, the therapist was deeply concerned about the psychological trauma, his mother’s death had on Tyler. After receiving the call, he rushes to rescue Tyler from the determined hands of Wednesday.
