A car horn blares. Somewhere electronic pop plays over a speaker. A door handle turns. A shotgun blasts. What takes root far beneath the busy streets of Intercession? Join us for part 1 of the finale of The Route.

I'll be honest Timeless, I don't know what to think. Me and Dusk go way back. I trust her like I trust my right arm to move when I need it. Her group, ROOT is...eccentric, in their tactics, in their motives, in their backgrounds. Sometimes that's what we need. They showed up at our doorstep last month with a whole community of weirdo exiles that I don't think another squad could've recruited. Sometimes though, they're a bigger risk than we can afford to take. Dusk is at a crossroads. This whole f*****g city is. They just don't know it yet. So lets keep trying to take them down the right path, yea?

In arms, Romeo

P.S. Did you see that reimbursement form I sent up? Just checking.

Just as ROOT has begun deescalating things with The Harbor, Barry Hughs and his gang of light racers have shown up to take what's theirs. Can the team hold them off? Or has Ken doomed them all? Star gets a number. Fleet gets a new friend. Dusk gets a phone call. Ken gets ignored.

Hey, its Breakbulk.
I don't know what happened, but I'm gonna assume the worst.
Wherever you are...well, I can't promise I'll talk them into finding you...but, we'll figure out who put you there.
We'll get that son of a bitch.

ROOT talks their way through the Harbor headquarters in an attempt to secure the solar tap. Dusk looks intimidating. Ken calls in backup. Fleet's past finds him. Star finds time and space for an emotional connection.

ROOT makes a strange discovery beneath the burning sun in the lost district of the hollows. Ken spots an old coworker. Fleet slips through a door. Dusk brings some PJs. Star brings her vision to bear.

ROOT calls on old friends as they prepare for their latest mission: tracking down a tap placed on an important pipeline of solar energy for the Chrome Hand. Dusk plays cards. Fleet knocks on a door. Ken makes a choice. Star remembers to like and subscribe. Janie does an excellent impression.
