Heading for genetics, La'an realizes what plan B is: to kill her ancestor ''Khan''. Sera explains that Khan's genocidal acts are needed to push humanity into its Dark Age and from there to its more enlightened state. She's been here since 1992 and has waited 30 years for this moment. She urges La'an to walk away and live a life without her ancestor using that device she has, but La'an refuses. They struggle and La'an shoots Sera, who triggers an implant to vaporize herself before she dies. Curious, she enters Khan's room and meets the young future dictator, a scared little boy. Despite knowing that there are other Augments, La'an refuses to kill or take away Khan. The device activates, allowing her to return to her present.

** Sera's politics are not quite internally consistent (she films cops to prevent police brutality, which is left-wing-coded, but she proposes a conspiracy theory about an alien invasion being covered up by an international cabal, which is right-wing-coded). To a 21st-century observer, this could be a sign that something is off. Since Jim and La'an both know for a fact that aliens ''will'' try to invade Earth, they don't notice the discontinuity.
