Battles between Helios and the workers lead to tragedy.
Tropes
- Every Man Has His Price: Dev ends the strike by promising the Helios workers with stock options and health benefits, rather than agreeing to their actual demands.
- Historical In-Joke: The Soviets show no solidarity with the Helios workers, despite the motto of the USSR being "workers of the world, unite." In the 1980s, Poland was paralyzed by a series of worker strikes, something that made the Russians very angry.
- Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Aleida turns off her interview on Eagle News before it gets to the best part: flipping off the host.
- Threat Backfire: When threatened to be fired, the Helios workers fire back on how long it will take to get trained replacements and "see how easy you can manage this place without us."
