Return to the present. Elliot encrypts two discs with Trenton and Mobley's data before deleting them and wiping down. Darlene shows up, asking for Elliot to see Angela as she is having a mental breakdown. Elliot declines, saying that Angela ''should'' be breaking down. Darlene insists that Elliot is not to blame for the cyber-bombings, but he laments that even so, Mr. Robot got what he wanted in the end. Darlene suggests that he try to get rid of Mr. Robot for good, but Elliot explains that every possible option has been considered, but to no avail. Elliot concludes that Mr. Robot will not leave because he wanted this to begin with, and that he liked it. Darlene, reasonably freaked out, attempts to stay with Elliot out of concern for his well-being. Elliot ensures Darlene that he will be fine, and says that he wants to be alone for the time being.
Later, Elliot gives Flipper to Bo the landlord, disposes of the Mr. Robot jacket, and buys a bag of morphine from a drug dealer named Hard Andy. Elliot visits Mobley's brother, who considers Mobley to be worthless and not deserving of any respect. At Trenton's house, Elliot talks with her father, saying that Trenton was a good person, and that she was not capable of harming innocents. Elliot glances at Trenton's brother Mohammed before departing. As he does, Trenton's father thanks him for the kind words he said about her. Taking a train to Coney Island, Elliot sits on the beach in silence. He pulls out the bag of morphine, intent on overdosing. Mohammed then shows up, saying that he followed Elliot from the house. Even though Elliot tries to send the boy on his way, Mohammed stays to admire the view. Elliot says that he cannot just stay there, and returns Mohammed home.

Elliot glances at Trenton's brother Mohammed before departing. As he does, Trenton's father thanks him for the kind words he said about her.

Return to the present. Elliot encrypts two CDs discs with Trenton and Mobley's data before deleting them and wiping down. Darlene shows up, asking for Elliot to see Angela as she is having a mental breakdown. Elliot declines, saying that Angela ''should'' be breaking down. Darlene insists that Elliot is not to blame for the cyber-bombings, but he laments that even so, Mr. Robot got what he wanted in the end. Darlene suggests that he try to get rid of Mr. Robot for good, but Elliot explains that every possible option has been considered, but to no avail. Elliot concludes that Mr. Robot will not leave because he wanted this to begin with, and that he liked it. Darlene, reasonably freaked out, attempts to stay with Elliot out of concern for his well-being. Elliot ensures Darlene that he will be fine, and says that he wants to be alone for the time being.
Later, Elliot gives Flipper to Bo the landlord, disposes of the Mr. Robot jacket, and buys a bag of morphine from a drug dealer named Hard Andy. Elliot visits Mobley's brother, who considers Mobley to be worthless and not deserving of any respect. At Trenton's house, Elliot talks with her father, saying that Trenton was a good person, and that she was not capable of harming innocents. Elliot glances at Trenton's brother Mohammed before departing. As he does, Trenton's father thanks him for the kind words he said about her. Taking a train to Coney Island, Elliot sits on the beach in silence. He pulls out the bag of morphine, intent on overdosing. Mohammed then shows up, saying that he followed Elliot from the house. Even though Elliot tries to send the boy on his way, Mohammed stays to admire the view. Elliot says that he cannot just stay there, and returns Mohammed home.
When they get there, the door is locked, and Mohammed states it could be a few hours before his parents return. Elliot, annoyed, asserts that he has more important matters to deal with than watching Mohammed, but the boy suggests that they see a movie. Elliot agrees, but only if there is something good playing. At the theater, Elliot is shocked to find that Back To The Future: Part II is being screened, on this day of all days. Elliot insists that Mohammed watch the movie as it was his favorite as a child. Entering the theater, Elliot sits down to watch with Mohammed, but after being distracted by another patron, he finds that the boy is gone. Elliot tracks him down to a local mosque, where the two begin to open up about their pasts, and Elliot claims responsibility for what happened to Trenton.
Returning home, Mohammed pulls out a set of keys and enters, much to Elliot's incredulity. Mohammed asks that he see Elliot again, to which he agrees. The boy tells Elliot to stay while he gets something for him, and Elliot begins to cry. Mohammed returns with a sucker, because of Elliot saying that he was sick previously. Mohammed says farewell to Elliot, who leaves, sucker in mouth. Returning to Mobley's brother's house, Elliot blackmails him into giving Mobley a funeral with the bag of morphine he bought, stating that he wants it to be a good one, and that he will be watching from the back.
At Angela's apartment, Elliot talks to Angela about the wishing game that they played as a child, and the phrase that would use to end each game:
''"No matter what, we will be okay."''
Back at his apartment, Elliot discovers that the jacket was returned among other bags of trash. Elliot takes the jacket, and replaces the broken mirror in his bathroom. Elliot gets on his terminal to find that Trenton has sent him an e-mail with the title "[[TitleDrop don't delete me]]" detailing a plan on how to undo Five/Nine, and revealing that Romero saved the encryption keys. Elliot's flame to save the world is reignited, and the episode ends with him declaring that there are still some things left for him to do.

In a flashback, Elliot and Edward go to see a movie. Edward asks his son for forgiveness after pushing him out of the window, but Elliot refuses. Heartbroken, Edward begins to cough and wheeze before falling to the floor, dead. Elliot takes his Mr. Robot jacket, leaving Edward behind to go into a theater. As the movie begins, Elliot shushes someone imaginary in the seat next to him.
