It seems that Perennial's time to talk has ended—or has it? The agents scramble to escape with Mallory, their hostage from the AirBnb. As tensions ease, their case officer reveals the truth about her visit and why Perennial still has a chance to redeem themselves in the eyes of the Program. Hyde finally addresses their past as a cautionary tale for Tuck, initiating the scenario “Khali Ghati.”

18:19 Outro

The agents emerge from Yosemite battered and exhausted, grappling with the toll it has exacted. Most of them have hit their breaking points, and disorders are starting to strangle their progress. Seeking solace, the team reconvenes at their AirBnB, a brief respite amidst the chaos. Tuck clings stubbornly to her unnatural sister, Mia, refusing to see reason. Hyde and Merit philosophize about their purpose, while Boomer and Warp try to relax. Yet, just as a semblance of normalcy settles over them, a phone call from a former case officer shatters the peace, thrusting them back into the tumult of their reality.
