Back at the camp, Chandra points her gun at Private Schmitt while telling him to stop mumbling since she can't understand German. Rebecca tells Chandra she needs to calm down, if not, she'll draw the soldiers to their camp. She points out to Chandra that when Private Schmitt saw their technology, he thought they were the enemy, and urges her to think about what will happen if Private Schmitt's comrades find him being held hostage. Rebecca takes the gun away from Chandra, telling her she's trying to stop her from doing something she'll regret. Rebecca gives the gun to Pia McKay, and charges her with watching over Private Schmitt. Rebecca acknowledges Pia's fear of the situation they're all in, and confesses that she's scared as well. Chandra notices Germans on the ridge, and Private Schmitt starts screaming for help. Rebecca jumps into action, and shoves Private Schmitt's face into the mud, suffocating him. The Germans figure they misheard, and keep moving without seeing the dimensionauts.
In a flashback, Grant showed his children the Pillar, as the rest of the dimensionauts all walked into the room. Grant explained how expansive this Eververse is, and how theoretically, anything of the imagination could be acquired now that the Pillar had been successfully created . Nathan asked if God at the centre of the Eververse, and Grant said that while God doesn't exist, the centre of the Eververse it's the closet thing.
Suddenly, to everyone's surprise, the Pillar started to spark. Kadir burst into the room, asked Grant what he was doing there with his kids, and ordered them to get out. Grant yelled for everyone to run, but the Pillar caused everyone to disappear before they could leave.
