Duncan tells Jamie that his biological prerogative is to serve Abigail, and Jamie threatens to return his personality to the bio-drive if he doesn’t cooperate. She activates the controller and restores Mitch’s personality, and tells him that he’s okay. Jamie then asks Mitch to trust her, trains her gun on him, and reactivates the Duncan personality. She offers Duncan the chance to be free from everyone.
Jackson insists that there’s more to Abigail’s plan to activate the hybrids, and wants her alive so that they can find out what it is. Abe warns that she’s a terrorist, and figures the world is better off without her.

He tells Jamie that he’s trying to make it look like natural causes, and figures that Abigail will soon die anyway.

Dariela goes with Quentin to the IADG HQ in Colorado. He explains that the only hybrids left in North America are west of the barrier, but they’ve found nests in other parts of the world. The IADG’s science division figures that the eggs will hatch on their own even if the signal doesn’t go out. Dariela warns that the beacons will let Abigail weaponize the hybrids, and Quentin welcomes Dariela to the IADG.
Jackson shows Abe the data from Abigail stasis tank and asks him to sift through the data for anything concerning internal organs. Abe finally agrees and Max comes in and reports that they found the leak in Abigail’s brain. Dariela calls and tells the men about the nests, and if the eggs hatch then they’ll have thousands of new hybrids to fight. Max goes to his cabin and hides the hybrid egg that he took, securing it in a case.
Abe tells Jackson that they’ll have to use the hybrid samples that they’ve taken to safe Abigail. Jackson tells him to do it and they’ll get more samples from the nest eggs containing the different hybrids. They set the jet on course for Seoul.

After Logan agrees to go with him, the two men suit up and go into the nest. Dariela monitors them via their helmet cams, and Logan fires more chem-packs to neutralize the spores.
Abe staples up Abigail, and Duncan and Jamie watch from the catwalk. She says that she’s making a tough call for the greater good, and Duncan tells her that morality isn’t an issue with him. He then says that he switched needles and Abe injected Abigail with epinephrine. Jamie realizes that Abe will thin he killed Abigail, and Duncan asks if that’s a problem. Abigail flatlines and Jamie tells Duncan to do what it takes.

Jamie and Duncan go to the safe, and Duncan realizes that Jamie gave him a false combination as she opens it with voce command. As she opens the safe to get the controller, Duncan threatens to cut Mitch’s throat with the scalpel.
Dariela updates Abe and asks how Abigail activated the signal. He sees the glowing implant as Max comes in, and they figure that it’s a dead man’s switch keyed to her heart. Abe starts cutting it out, while Jackson goes back and finds the sixth hybrid. He takes a sample and they leave.
Jamie backs away from the safe, and Duncan takes the controller and tells Jamie that she has no idea what she’s done. He sets the scalpel down and explains that by killing Abigail, Jamie just ended the world. Jamie gives a voice command turning up the lights, and then knocks down the distracted Duncan. They struggle for the controller.
Quentin reports that more nests are activating, and Abe finally gets the implant out. Quentin orders Dariela to set off the explosives, and she points out that Jackson and Logan are inside. He’d rather deal with spores than hybrids, and Dariela asks for ten seconds. She then tells Jackson and Logan to head to the southwest stairwell. As they head there, Dariela triggers the explosives and loses the camera signals. After a few seconds, they check in and report that they’re fine, and Dariela sends an exfil team. Quentin orders a 50-mile evacuation.
Abe tells Dariela that the implant is still transmitting, despite Max smashing it.

Jamie knocks him down and grabs the controller before Max can, and Duncan tells them that they left a treat for the team and death is only the beginning. Max grabs the controller, triggers, it, and then smashes it. Mitch’s personality reasserts itself, but he has no idea what Duncan meant. Jamie figures that Duncan hid a booby trap on the plane.
Quentin assigns all team members to check the incoming data.
Jamie and the others find nothing, and Jamie figures that Abigail’s death triggered something else.
