Plot
Previously...

Drake: What's going on?

Director: Oh I'm glad you're here. We're about to begin the raid.

Drake: Why didn't you tell me about this?

Director: Because it wasn't your fight, Drake. We have this under control. Owens in charge of this operation. We finally have them.

The Xyrion base can be seen exploding.

Director: Owens? Owens!

Owens: There- there was an explosion. (breaths) Our guys... they didn't make it out.

Drake: Let me help.

Director: Drake-

Drake: I can't just stay out of this.

Detective Wilson: Look, I know you're a good friend of my daughter's. I've seen you around with her for a long while now. I just want you to know something. We're on the same side, you and I. We both want the same thing: for her to be safe. And as her father, I gotta say I appreciate what you do for her. You're a good kid.

Kate: I'm seeing someone, Adam.

Adam: Maybe, I keep covering for you so many times because I want to add something to that. I want to be more than just a replaceable friend.

Kate: I didn't know you felt that way, Adam.

Mother: While you were away, others have felt inspired by what they believed was your bravery and courage and decided to leave Secret City and explore the unknown in hopes to help others who are lost and need our guidance. But they have not returned. I fear they too were taken.

Fionna: I'm sorry Mother but I have to do this.

Mother: I understand, child.

The shaft breaks loose and drops Emmett down onto the floor below. He manages to land on his feet and looks up before him, only to be greeted with several Xyrions in the hall. They then stop and grunt in surprise at Leviathan's presence. Before Emmett could react, the Xyrion smacks him across the room and he smashes through a wall and into a small office room.

Danny then quickly turns to the bodies of the R-Corp men.

Danny: What were you guys even doing here? I thought the MCA had this place under control?

Danny then looks over at the R-Corp trucks.

Emmett: Okay. I didn't want to do this but clearly you're not going to be much help.

Fionna, readying herself: Get away from me!

Emmett approaches her but she suddenly vanishes as a blur passes through. He then looks around, surprised, when a whistle is heard, catching his attention. Emmett then turns and sees Danny standing across the laboratory with Fionna behind him, looking around surprised as well.

Danny: Pretty sure she said get away, dude.

Emmett: Who are you supposed to be?

Danny: The Speedster.

Emmett: I was looking for Anton Reeves, hoping he could give answers like why he took over Murphy Industries.

Drake: Whatever you're planning, they'll turn on you. And if they don't, we'll stop you.

Anton Reeves: (soft chuckle) We'll just have to see about that, Vigilante.

Jake, standing in the doorway: They're aliens. They're all aliens.

Drake: What?

Jake: I remember now. Whatever she did (points at Fionna), she- she made see what really happened. I was abducted by the Xyrions. I saw what they were planning as they brought me on board their ship. They're using this substance called Cytoxin to turn captured people with abilities into their soldiers. I thought they were going to do the same to me but- they said I was the key.

Drake: The key to what?

Jake: The key to their invasion.

John: Well, if we have any shot at going up against a massive swarm of unstoppable aliens, I'm going to have to work on those projects I had sent to the outpost.

Drake: You're going too?

John: Hey, I'll be back. I'm with you, no matter what, alright? Just, make sure Kate stays away from all this alien stuff, okay?

Drake: Kate?

John: I'm just- worried about her future, that's all.

Drake: You should go. Be you and leave the invasion stuff to us.

Kate: That doesn't sound like something you would say.

Drake: To be honest, I want you here, by me. But I understand if you have to go.

Kate looks at Drake for moment before embracing him with a hug. He looks uncomfortable at first but finds himself accepting it.

Kate: Just make sure you survive, alright? I still need you around.

Drake: You too...

Kate then walks off. Drake is now alone in the corridor.

Drake: The Xyrion Leader! What are you doing here?!

Xyrion Leader: Ending this resistance of yours once and for all.

Drake: Whatever they are. They can't stop the two of us.

Xyrion Leader: Then do it. Do what you were made for.

Drake then falls over, before the Xyrion Leader, and turns behind him. The view now shows a sword in his back, piercing through the armor. Owens then walks over and takes the sword from Drake's back and kneels before the Xyrion Leader.

Drake: Owens... no...

The Xyrion Leader smirks again.

Xyrion Leader: You are the one without any protection now, Vigilante.

Drake then lays there, falling unconscious, as Owens raises up and approaches him, with his blades ready.

The "Previously" landmark vanishes from the scene as it enters current time, with Drake continuing to lay against the runway. Owens is then seen approaching Drake's body, his blades readies in his hands. He then stops before Drake and raises his arm as if to finish him off.

Xyrion Leader: Wait, we still need him alive.

Owens then pauses and lowers his blade.

Owens: Yes, master.

Xyrion Leader: Have you obtained the device yet?

Owens: Not yet, master.

Xyrion Leader: Hm, and what is the status of this transport?

Owens: The Helicarrier is still mostly functional. If I continue from where I left off, surely someone will attempt to stop me.

Xyrion Leader: Stop them first! Make sure this... "Helicarrier" of theirs is destroyed. The Xyrions won't have any more resistance to our plans especially from the Mutation Containment Agency. Have I made myself clear?

Owens: ...Yes, master.

Xyrion Leader: Then go. Do what you made for.

Owens delivers a single nod then turns, heading back inside of the Helicarrier through the opening. The scene then cuts over to a corridor with a doorway at its end, guarded by two MCA Officers. Owens can be seen approaches the two officers.

MCA Officer: Agent Owens, what are you doing here?

Owens: I need to get inside the engine control room.

MCA Officer: Well, we're kinda of having a situation here. Looks like the engines were damaged internally, like someone attempted to break it or something. Did you handle that operation already?

Owens, putting more emphasis on his words: I need to get inside the engine control room... Don't make me ask again.

The two officers turn to each other before the initial officer turns back to Owens.

MCA Officer: Like I said, Director's orders.

There's a tense moment of silence between the three of them. Owens' eyes shift downwards as he sees the other MCA Officer reaching slowly for his holstered blaster. Owens then grabs his blade and rushes forwards, slicing the initial MCA Officer across the torso and tossing his second blade into the chest of the other MCA Officer. Within seconds, their bodies drop to the floor. As seen from the floor-view, the doorway slides open as Owens walks through, grabbing his blade from the torso of the MCA Officer, as he enters. The scene then cuts over to the Control Hub where several MCA Officers can be seen moving around, attending to their tasks in a hurry. The Director can be seen leaning over Agent DeLisle, checking the computer station's monitor.

Director: What's going on, people? Where are my systems at?

Agent DeLisle: We don't know, ma'am. Our systems are still failing. Whatever is causing it must be internally, originating from the engine control room.

Director: I thought I sent two officers down there already.

The Director gets up and walks to the railing, pressing her hands against her earpiece.

Director: Wilkinson, Perkins. Come in.

There is no response, only static.

Director: Wilkinson... Perkins!

No response still. The Director turns to Agent DeLisle.

Director: Sounds the alarm, I think we have an intruder. If those systems don't start looking any better within the next half hour, make sure you get all personnel off this boat.

Agent DeLisle: Ma'am-

Director: That's an order, DeLisle.

Agent DeLisle: Yes, ma'am.

The Director walks down the set of steps and approaches the elevator which slides open before her. She whips out his blaster pistol as she enters the elevator. She turns around and cocks her gun, just as the doors close before her. The scene cuts once more to the corridor with the Director, aiming her blaster before her, as she proceeds ahead. She then turns the corner and sees the bodies of the two Officers, now turned on their backs. The Director looks around then hurries ahead, squats down and checks the pulses of the two officers. After checking the second officer, she closes her eyes after a moment and lets out a sigh. She then opens her eyes, looking up at the door before her, gets up and proceeds to enter the engine control room. Inside, there are several metallic pipes along the walls with grates making up a good portion of the floor. As the Director moves ahead, continuing to aim her blaster ahead of her, her feet clang against the grate with every step she makes. The sound of something clashing against metal is heard echoing through the room. The Director grips her blaster firmly as she prepares to turn the upcoming corner. The metallic clashing sound is heard echoing again, then once more, then again after that. The Director then turns the corner, seeing a humanoid figure through the rising steam.

Director: Stay where you are!

The figure then stops and turns its head towards her. The Director continues pointing her blaster ahead of her, at the figure.

Owens, unseen: It's me.

Owens then emerges from the steam, which has dampened his hair. The Director then takes a breath of relief and lowers his pistol.

Director: Owens, what are you doing here?

Owens: Looking for the intruder.

Director: ...He was here?

Owens nods.

Owens: He killed those officers posted outside.

Director: I know, I saw when I came in. Did you see where he went?

Owens: I believe he's posing as one of us, trying to sabotage us from the inside. I heard him report in about taking the Director's data. He might just be headed to your office.

Director: Then let's get there before he gets away.

The Director then turns back, hurrying out of the engine control room. Owens then lowers his head slightly, looking at her with a cold, grim and malicious expression.
