The 2nd Mass arrive back in Charleston after twenty-three days of travel, but their celebrations are cut short when the Espheni attack. When the Espheni deploy mechs and a new weapon that creates impenetrable fences of energy between metal obelisks against the group, the 2nd Mass is split apart. Four months later, and now in solitary confinement at an Espheni ghetto, Tom escapes confinement whenever possible in order to gather intelligence on the camp and the skitter locations. At an Espheni re-education camp, Matt is tasked with assuring that the other children in his group comply with the rules. Meanwhile, Ben awakens in Chinatown and is immediately suspicious of his surroundings; although Maggie assures him that the place is safe and untouched by the Espheni, he later meets a now grown-up Lexi. Elsewhere, Anne leads the 2nd Mass survivors on an attack against an Espheni weapons shipment, but is surprised to find children inside the truck. When she learns that the children know nothing of Lexi, she decides to travel in the assumed direction of truck. Back at the ghetto, Hal clashes with Pope over a generator required in his escape plan. Tom meets Cochise and learns that the Volm have left the Earth, leaving behind small recon teams, and that the Espheni have similar ghettos across the planet. Believing humanity to be facing extinction, Cochise offers Tom words of support, and Tom requests that he try to find Anne, Ben, Matt, and Lexi, to which he agrees. Meanwhile aboard an Espheni ship over the ghetto, an overlord sends a message demanding that the vigilante be handed over, or the ghetto's residents will be killed. | |||||||

When Tom and Weaver are released from solitary confinement, an Espheni overlord, speaking through a harnessed child, informs the residents that the food supply will cease until the vigilante is handed over. Anne and the 2nd Mass capture a skitter and learn that the Espheni plan to use the captured children as hybrids. In Chinatown, Ben learns from Dr Kadar that Lexi may be dying, and that Lourdes has prevented him from helping her. Concerned about Lexi's well-being, Ben voices his concerns and convinces her to meet him. Back in the ghetto, Tom and Hal meet with Dingaan Bootha, who tells them that he had escaped from an Espheni ghetto before. Dingaan, who has a working radio, describes his creation, the Faraday suit, which makes scaling the fence safe but only within thirty seconds. Tom decides to use the radio to contact Cochise and learns that the Espheni power source is offensive, not defensive as their past power sources, and that they know Matt's location. Dressed as the vigilante, Tom surrenders himself to the overlord and is taken aboard the ship. While there, the overlord tells him of a "great enemy" race approaching Earth, and that the Espheni have come so far from their own home to gather resources to fight them. They reveal their new plan for humanity – turning human adults into an elite front line army of skitters – and what they did to the rebel skitters. Faced with an ultimatum from the overlord to save his family, Tom takes advantage of the ensuing chaos, when the ghetto's residents launch projectiles against the ship, to examine the ghetto layout and power source. Meanwhile Ben and Maggie bond over Lexi, and Tom informs Weaver that he made a deal with the overlord. Later that night, Ben discovers a distraught Lexi talking with an overlord. | |||||||

Hal meanwhile is tasked with leading the ghetto residents into the tunnels, and Pope and Weaver are told to cover Dingaan. The next day, Tom meets with an Overlord and an harnessed child, when he tells them that the deal they had is off, he attacks the Overlord with a flamethrower and draws the Skitters away. Dingaan meanwhile is injured, which forces Pope to wear the Faraday Suit and scale the fence to destroy the tether with the charge. Hal waits with the ghetto residents in the tunnel and is forced to defend them from incoming skitters, and Tom meanwhile draws the chasing skitters into a building covered with explosives. When Tom notices that Pope is successful in destroying the tether, he detonates the explosives and jumps into the water in triumph.
