THE BREAKDOWN: Episode 2 introduces Operation Precept. General Shaw seems to know more than anyone about the nature of IT . But here's what matters: Pennywise / IT manipulates everyone. Lily got gaslit by police. Adults refused to believe her. This isn't just horror—it's about how systems fail vulnerable people. And IT feeds on that fear.
