Complete story — includes the ending

The Mason family and Weaver deal with the news that Cochise's life is coming to an end when he summons his father's ship. Before he leaves, Cochise gives Tom a device that shows the Espheni jamming signals in capital cities across the world, including Washington D.C. and Moscow. Tom then leads a team to a police station for supplies and Dingaan uses a radio to make contact with a resistance group in Peru. When Tom returns, Pope notices that Ryan is not with them and angrily confronts him about his leadership and questions why people except those important to him are dying. Tom attempts to justify his actions to date and tells him that he lost his daughter in the war, and that they're done and that he should leave Chinatown. Meanwhile, Anne performs an operation on Cochise when his father agrees to the transplant and saves his life, but his father dies soon after. Anne helps him come to terms with his grief and together they perform a ritual where she sees Lexi. Tom is then contacted by the Dornia who use a memory of Rebecca to speak with him, and he learns that Pope had abducted Hal and leaves to save him.
