Plot: Gideon (Lance Reddick), Jean (Chloe Sevigny) and Abraham (Jonathan Majors) link arms quickly while in the rubble, they disappear and then reappear again. This time the three of them appear in the White House.
The three of them look around as the White House is boarded up. All windows and doors are forcibly closed and locked, with tripwires behind all of them, there seems to be no way in nor out. President Billy Evergreen (Ty Burrell) comes around the corner seemingly carefree. He stops in his track when he sees Gideon, Abraham and Jean. He begins yelling for security but Jean quickly covers his mouth. They all scurry to a nearby room, and sit the president down. Gideon acts quickly and wipes his memory of ever seeing the three of them. They then go to a nearby room to regroup and see how they will go about things in 2030. Jean says that all they need to do is find Wilson and leave. Abraham and Gideon agree but, the noise of gunshots and riots get louder as they seem to get closer. Gideon tells them that this mission may be harder then they initially thought. He tells the two of them that he feels the need to speak with the Strategists. He presses a few buttons on his watch and immediately disappears.
Controller Wilson (Jackie Earle Haley), is in an underground bunker with, Frederick (Hector Elizondo) and Farah (Mena Massoud). Frederick asks for the explanation of where they are, and why Wilson brought them here. Wilson explains that he has a plan to overcome the power that is CONTROL. Frederick immediately is taken aback by the statement and tries to get Wilson to shut up, Farah however is intrigued. He never really felt like he was welcomed. Wilson begins speaking some more, he asks the two cleaners if they ever wanted to be more than that, if they ever wanted to be controllers. Wilson says that he sees it in Farah especially, he sees that he can be one of the best controllers in history. Frederick tries to get Farah to stop listening he says that Wilson is trying to manipulate him. Wilson laughs that off and continues trying to persuade them to join his cause. He begins walking closer to Frederick. Frederick tells him that he won’t get away with what he has planned. He tries to teleport away but he doesn’t move anywhere. Farah looks on as Wilson gets right in the face of Frederick, Wilson explains that he has put a chip in their watches that enables him to transport them wherever he wants. He asks Farah where he thinks they should teleport Frederick. Taken in by Wilson’s persuasion, Farah explains that they should send Frederick back to 280 BC and let the Romans have him. Wilson looks at Frederick and says it wasn’t him it was the kid. With a press of a button Frederick is sent to 280 BC.
As soon as he arrives in 280 BC he is attacked by Romans and nailed to a wooden structure, he is whipped until he is killed.
The Strategist Azrael (Robert Knepper) feels a presence appear behind him. He turns and greets Gideon, he asks what he owes the pleasure. Gideon tells him of the task he was sent on. He asks for some ways to approach the capture of Wilson. Azrael tells him that he has seen a scenario in which Gideon, Jean and Abraham all die painful deaths. He adds that the only way to succeed in taking down the rogue Wilson is by killing him. He explains however, Wilson may not be there only concern, which is as much as he can say. Gideon is left to figure that out on his own. Gideon leaves the strategist and returns to Jean and Abraham precisely as he left.
He explains to them what the strategist had said to him. Abraham is curious as to what the greater threat is. Gideon says they can figure it out later, as for now, they need to leave the White House. The three of them link arms and disappear. Re-appearing in an abandoned building. The three of them search it and find nothing, they decide this is the place to stay and sleep for the night.
Back at CONTROL HQ Vincent (Graham McTavish) tracks the whereabouts of his two missing Cleaners, Frederick and Farah. He is stunned to learn that both of their watches have been meddled with. He can no longer find either cleaner. He searches for ways to correct the issue but it cannot be done, he is not worried however as he believes cleaners are easily replaceable. He instead watches over the footage of Calvin Minos (David Dastmalchian) in his cell. Minos just sits in there staring at the camera, he makes a slicing motion at the neck and begins laughing. Vincent turns the screen of as he gets an alert.
Gideon is shown as a hologram to Vincent, Gideon explains that he has spoken to the strategist and was told that the only way to stop Wilson is to kill him. Vincent tells him to do what must be done, then ends the call.
Farah and Wilson leave the bunker as they hear commotion coming from the outside. Two men not much older than Farah talk with weapons in hand. Wilson whispers to Farah and tells him to prove his worth, kill the men. He asks what with and Wilson simply points to his head (brain). Farah walks up behind the men, he snaps one of their necks, the other turns around. With his machete in hand he swings at Farah, Farah dodges that one, but the man kicks him to the ground. The man walks closer to Farah ready to kill him, but Farah sweeps his leg, getting him to the ground. He grabs the dropped machete and jumps onto the man killing him. Wilson walks into screen clapping. He presents to Farah a badge that says Controller. Farah seems pleased with himself, as blood comes down from his face, he smiles big.
