Exibido em:: Dez 17, 2014

A security guard shoots Samantha. Director Warren accuses Enzmann of creating the energy surge but he excitedly tells her that it is likely from Christa, confirming that the Ascension experiment is working and they have created a valuable advance in human evolution. She gives Enzmann his job back but tells Carrillo that Enzmann will be killed once the technical problems on Ascension are repaired. On the ship, people are panicking, system computers are down, strange messages (modern television signals) are appearing on computer screens and a breakdown of the air scrubber controls has on board carbon dioxide rising towards fatal levels. Fearing that the carbon dioxide will soon kill everyone on the ship, Warren sends an operative named Medici in to bring out Christa and her valuable powers. With Captain Denninger and XO Gault off the bridge and Chief Councilman Rose missing, the bridge crew inform Viondra that she is in command. Outside, Samantha takes Stokes to a motel to deal with her gunshot wound. She contacts Eva to help her and Stokes to escape and to expose the Ascension project. When Stokes expresses a desire to return to Ascension, Samantha and Eva calm him, though Eva commits a minor slip, giving herself away as a honey trap working to protect the project. She kills Samantha and looks to kill Stokes, who has escaped into the night. Dr. Robert Bryce, Enzmann's inside man, has been warned by Enzmann that Medici is entering the ship and reveals to Christa that he was Lorelei's murderer. Medici quickly overpowers Bryce when the doctor tries to protect Christa. Gault has another vision of Lorelei and is drawn to protect Christa, leaving the Captain to fix the carbon dioxide problem. As Gault and Medici fight, a scared Christa conjures another of her power surges and Medici and Gault disappear. Director Warren is furious and as she tries to contact Medici inside, Enzmann pushes her off a platform to her death. Enzmann tells Carrillo the true intent of the project
