After downing both helicopters Yorick and Agent 355 travel by foot in search for a geneticist who can unravel the mystery of how he survived. The unlikely travel companions try to get to know each other as they encounter a changed society.
Yorick starts to realise the capabilities of Agent 355 and the lengths she’ll go to enact his mothers orders; Agent 355 meanwhile gets frustrated by Yorick’s lack of self awareness and privilege as he unwittingly puts the two of them into increasingly dangerous situations in the new world. After a huge argument following a close encounter with the law both come to an arrangement: If Yorick agrees to go to the geneticist then Agent 355 will help him find his estranged girlfriend Beth.
Meanwhile, Hero and Sam make their way to Washington, but Hero has no desire to find her mother and tries everything she can to sabotage their journey. They stumble across a former shelter for women that is clean, warm and dead body-free. Sam is uneasy and wants to move on quickly but Hero delays.
As they go looking for supplies they meet Nora and her injured daughter. Hero helps to clean the wound but Mackenzie needs antibiotics. That evening the group are discovered by the current gun toting, horse riding “owners” of the shelter who take an immediate dislike to Sam and threaten to kill them all. But Hero's EMT skills save them as one of their own lies injured.
As Hero attempts to treat the dying woman the group's leader arrives, who shoots the woman and chastises her group for not welcoming these helpful new arrivals, even Sam. As they are led to a warehouse full of supplies, Nora quietly warns Hero not to disclose who her mother is to this group of dangerous women.
