Tom relives an old memory of when his wife told him about her breast cancer, but she tells him the importance of wiping out every cell and tells him to find his warrior, to give into rage to win the battle against it. He then finds himself in the ocean and returns to the 2nd Mass and gives a speech telling them to give into their rage and find their warrior, and to take the battle to the Espheni. They learn from Cochise about militias all around the world. The 2nd Mass split into three teams and target three Espheni locations; Tom's team is ambushed by Skitters when they target an Overlord's escape pod and are rescued by Weaver's team, and Sara helps destroy the pod. Believing that the Skitters were controlled by an Overlord, they learn that it is hiding in Woodrow Wilson High School. Tom finds the Overlord, who is controlling Ben, and is told that he has turned into a savage and that he is not afraid of him. Tom tells the Overlord that he is not afraid of him either and shoots him dead. After the battle, the 2nd Mass gather around the fire where Deni's body is being burned.
