By breakfast the next morning, Warner has disappeared, and the people of Omega Point blame Castle for trusting him. Juliette’s focus is torn between the upcoming battle and her kisses the previous night with Warner. She feels selfish for having feelings for him.
As the people of Omega Point say goodbye to one another, Kenji appears, joking, as Juliette hugs him, that she should hold off touching him for a while. He says he doesn’t blame her, but this must have been her powers unless Warner did something. Juliette stays silent, not sure why she’s still protecting Warner. Kenji will fight despite his recent injury: Warner was bad, and Anderson is worse, so he has to fight. Juliette asks if Warner was really that bad, and Kenji laughs that Warner is so brutal he isn’t even human. Juliette feels sick as Kenji talks about how he’d like to kill Warner. Adam notices Juliette is acting oddly, but she says she is fine. Then, it is time for them to leave for battle.
Kenji, Juliette, and Adam move toward Sector 45, where gunshots already sound, as Anderson fires on civilians. Heavy rain makes it difficult to see.
