* ImmuneToDrugs: Riley's history of hard drug use means the sedatives BPO give her don't work as well as they should. The medics are forced to knock her out completely to stop her from trying to escape. Jonas notes this is actually a good thing as it means she's unconscious when Whispers arrives, so he can't make eye contact with her.

Riley is captured and it is up to Will to save her with help from the others. Things do not go as planned as Wolfgang's uncle is discovered to be wearing a bulletproof vest after a shoot-out, but after some help from Kala he gets another chance, only to confess to his uncle that he strangled and killed his abusive father when he was a teenager, burning his body in a car. Wolfgang brutally shoots his uncle repeatedly in the face, saying that he too is a monster. Seeing that Kala has witnessed the whole thing, he tells her that she should marry Rajan as he himself is too dangerous. The last scene shows Riley on a ferry with a drugged Will surrounded by the other sensates; it is the first time the entire cluster is seen together.
