Blade completes Polly’s alien replacement

Polly’s inhuman replacement arm is the physical manifestation of her impending erasure. Pulled from the cabinet by Blade, it is a grotesque parody of a human limb, its unnatural form a stark contrast to the mundane postcards and office trappings. The arm is both victim and weapon—it will become part of the duplicate Polly, a silent collaborator in the Chameleons’ conspiracy. Its injection marks the moment her original self is lost, replaced by something alien and obedient.

Before: Dormant, stored in the cabinet, awaiting activation as part of the transformation process.

After: Injected, transformed, and ready to be integrated into the duplicate Polly’s body.
