Sarah Gallahan is being led at gunpoint by the officer who caught her and a metro cop. The officer mocks her, calling her actions a nice assassination attempt that he's sure will get her a fun little time in their Q&A session. The officer calls her a rebel and a cop killer and wonders what else they'll learn about her. He pushes her into a cell, where Lt recognizes her. The officer notes that she must be special since she's recognized by name, then tells her that killing gets easier after you see enough torture sessions as, at that point, you see it as giving someone the easy way out, then mockingly tells her to have fun as he locks her in the cell. Another man in the cell, covered in bloodied clothing, asks Sarah if she's the city Resistance leader. She tells him that unfortunately, yeah, that's her, so he introduces himself as informant Papa 4. Confused, Sarah asks if she didn't just get a briefing from him a few hours ago, to which he replies no, and that's the problem.

Sarah asks the informant if that wasn't him at the base, then who was it. Papa 4 replies that it was a Combine double agent and explains that they beat the time and place out of him once they knew he had a meeting. Sarah realizes in horror that this means they know where the liberation headquarters for the whole continent is. Papa 4 tells her he knows and coughs, then explains that he tried his best to hold his own but they have ways of getting information. Papa 4 explains that it's not all bad though, as he knows from protocol that the results of his interrogation won't be released until they brief the Chief, so if Sarah can kill his interrogator, the double agent and the medical doctor on staff, this can still be contained. Papa 4's coughing then intensifies and he falls to the ground. Lt goes to check for a pulse and tells Sarah he's dead. Sarah tells Lt she's not surprised after all Papa 4 went through, then asks Lt if he still has his suicide needle. Lt tells her yes and she asks for it, explaining that she has a plan. Sarah calls out the guard, telling him that the guy is sick or something. The Civil Protection guard calls for the staff doctor via radio.

As a female medical doctor comes in, Sarah starts to tell her that the man looks pretty sick, but the doctor shouts at her to step away from the door and get in the corner. The doctor approaches the body and scans it, noting that he's pretty far gone. As the doctor thinks to herself on what to do, Sarah stealthily approaches her from behind. Sarah puts her hand on the doctor's mouth to muffle her screams and stabs her in the stomach with the suicide needle. The doctor bites Sarah's hand, making her scream and forcing her to let go. Sarah complains that she bit off a piece of her finger and falls to the ground in pain. The doctor angrily tells her to stay down and orders the officer to make sure she's kept under guard while they move the body to medlab.

The doctor tells another Civil Protection officer that she wants to make sure that she oversees Sarah's interrogation. The officer complies and tells her she'll be the first to know when the interrogator arrives. As she walks away, the doctor coughs blood. Later, Sarah is escorted by two Civil Protection guards, one of whom tells her to keep moving as further malcompliance will only make things worse for her. She's taken to an interrogation room and told to stay there. As the camera feed films her, she waits for the interrogator to arrive.

Thomas is interrupted by the sound of an explosion above them, making the ceiling start to crumble. A dispatch informs all units that internal systems have been seriously damaged. Thomas asks Sarah if that was her doing and she tells him no. He notes that it might be the distraction they need and informs her that he will disable security from there to the exit, the rest being up to her. Later, as a dispatch orders all units not responsible for base emergency response to evacuate, Sarah opens the door to Lt's cell, telling him they're getting out of there. They rush past burning debris as they make their way out. Sarah and Lt make their way to the city, where a message declares a full lockdown for City 30 in effect and that all citizens are to report to the nearest lockdown shelter or secure location. The narration states that she is Sarah Gallahan and just escaped from certain doom, but she knows that things will never be the same. End of episode 3.
