Yorick talks about Elvis' twin brother Jesse, who was stillborn and buried in a shoebox.

To Yorick, this begs the question: why does fate choose one man over another?

On horseback, Nora and Roxanne discuss their upcoming siege of the inmates' Marrisville community.

Agent 355 says Janice has offered them two ATVs, which should make their journey easier.

He also admits that he’s only slept with one woman (Beth).

Agent 355 interrupts them to inform Yorick that they’re heading out tomorrow.

At a nearby indoor pool, scouts report to Nora and Roxanne about the inmates' compound.

That doesn’t work.

Before they’re sent packing, the duo reveals that rioters have stormed the Pentagon and killed the president.

This hits Hero hard, and she and Nora share a charged look.

In the present, Beth and Jennifer are holed up in an abandoned house.

Beth suggests that Jennifer cut and dye her hair, but the president declines.

Beth wants to know where Yorick is, but Jennifer, of course, has no clue.

They plan to leave at dark.

Agent 355 balks at this comparison.

Hero slams them as hypocrites, and Yorick for not defending her.

Sensing a brewing public scene, Jennifer bails, albeit not before privately whispering something in Hero’s ear.

At night, as Jennifer and Beth are about to depart, an intruder breaks into their house.

It’s Sam, and he’s seen a van outside, indicating that someone’s watching them.

They make a run at escape but are taken hostage by mysterious assailants.

At the pool, the women are all partying ahead of the following morning’s siege.

Nora tells Hero that she vetted her when the former president was considering Jennifer as his VP.

Clearly, Hero was considered the Brown family’s biggest liability.

“It’s a comedy,” Hero dryly quips.

Roxanne announces to everyone that Nora and Hero are mourning the old world (i.e.

the fallen Pentagon), and riles up her acolytes.

In Marrisville, Mann expresses doubts about being able to save the world to Agent 355.

She lies down beside Agent 355 and puts her head on the spy’s shoulder.

Agent 355 reluctantly accepts this new “weight,” which will prevent her from sleepwalking.

Meanwhile, Yorick divulges to Sonia that they’re heading to a lab in San Francisco.

She’d rather view time as an ocean, where all of the good and the bad are intermingled.

In the morning, Nora finds Mackenzie in the bathroom, dealing with her period.

Kimberley has a dream in which she stares into a mirror, her breasts lactating.

Yorick appears behind her, undresses, and they have passionate sex.

They’re confronted on the main street by a resident as well as Janice.

Before long, gunshots ring out.

Agent 355 sends Yorick off with Sonia and Mann to a nearby silo that’s just outside town.

Once in the woods, Agent 355 easily neutralizes these adversaries.

In the final flashback to the dinner, Yorick fumes to Beth on the sidewalk about Hero’s selfishness.

“I made a mess,” says a forlorn Hero, as Sam comforts her.

The shootout rages on in Marrisville.

Roxanne stalks Agent 355 but runs out of ammo, leaving her vulnerable for a kill shot.

To prevent Roxanne’s imminent death, Nora surrenders to the inmates.

Roxanne is furious about this decision, and storms off.

The Amazons retreat to the indoor pool, and Hero discloses to Nora that her brother is alive.

Nora suffers the slings and arrows of Roxanne, who calls her a coward.

To the disbelief of everyone, Nora guns down Roxanne, who falls dead into the pool.

She says the Amazons no longer have to reinvent themselves.

Hero stands beside Nora, thereby marking her as their new leader.

Agent 355 joins Mann and Yorick at the silo.

On the way home, they were in a car accident and everyone died except Agent 355.

You will too," she tells a weepy Yorick.

Yorick doesn’t want that but also doesn’t want to keep being helpless.

He asks Agent 355 to teach him how to be tough and self-reliant, and she agrees.
