Gaia doesn't know who to trust anymore. She finds herself drifting further from Sam and confiding more and more in Ed. The more time that they spend together, the closer they get. He's different now that he walks...more confident. Tom discovers the true nature of the terroist plot. Loki wants to create a clone...of Gaia. By using her genes to create an army of fearless mercenaries, Loki's most twisted dream will come true: his niece will finally be his own, a thousand times over. To keep himself out of jail Sam makes a Faustian bargain with a new friend. To his horror, he finds out that his 'friend' is actually an emissary of Loki. Sam is given an ultimatium: bring Gaia to Loki or be framed for Mike's murder.
