Ostracized and shunned at her sister Tegan's reception dinner, Nomi gives a speech about how much she loves Tegan, who, despite a nasty fight prior to Nomi's operation, was there and supportive in the aftermath. Capheus returns home to find his mother asleep among his campaign materials, and Sun steels herself for her brother's gala.

Felix returns to their old shop to find Wolfgang already there. Aside from Felix himself, Fuchs and the cops are looking for Wolfgang in the aftermath of last episode's shootout. Meanwhile, Kala shops for a gift for a friend expecting a child and her mother gives her advice on her marriage, relating the early days of her own marriage. Riley and Diego identify the woman as Carol Cumberland; upon visiting her house, Riley gets a vision of Angelica and Whispers arriving at the same house. They break in to find an empty lab down a stairwell, as Riley gets more visions of one of Angelica's clustermates being experimented on. In the bathroom, they find that Carol has killed herself.

Two men chase Capheus at the market. After threatening one of them, he makes his way to the Kabakas' and asks why Silas's men have been following him. Silas tells him that there is a bounty on Capheus's head, and encourages him to stop driving the bus for his safety. Silas admits that he's not just helping Capheus because it's good for business and Amondi adores him, he's also in love with Capheus's mother Shiro.

Nomi arrives just in time for Tegan's wedding, and (via Sun) injures the best man's hand in response to a few comments. Bendix crashes the wedding to arrest Nomi, but Amanita demands a warrant. Failing to come up with one and cowed by the influence of Nomi's father (and everyone in the room), Bendix walks out.

Daniela interrupts a tender moment between Lito and Hernando to tell Lito about a Hollywood role she's sure he'll want. She's right; reading the script reduces Lito to tears, but he considers it a hopeless case. Nonplussed, Daniela pretends to be Lito's agent and through some very convincing phone calls, gets Lito a call from the producer and a chance to audition for the role...under 58 minutes.

Ajay drops off a wedding present at Kala and Rajan's home, telling her to open it with Rajan. Will sees more visions of Whispers, and visits Riley, telling her that he knows how to get to Whispers but they need more blockers. Diego interrupts with news that Will's father is dying. They visit him in the hospital, where Will's father somehow sees Will through Riley as Will tearfully bids him goodbye.
