Haisley finds herself having the same dream-simulation where she dies on Alligator Alley six days from 7/13, yet she has learned how to have agency over her fate within the dream-simulation.  

The aftermath of the coup in Ellington reveals that the BATAs and the 82nd Regiment have revolted against Captain Dick, who is besieged inside City Hall. His attempts to pacify the people of Ellington have failed and a grim ending looks certain. 

We are at the threshold between acts 1 & 2, so let's take a breath and connect some of the dots.

Captain Dick is shocked to see his wife again, although she is not the same. Out in the Everglades, De'ontay meets some other survivors who begin to organize. In the infirmary, Abra sees Haisley Jones sleeping on a bed of flowers as BATA cult followers pray to her, while General Schenk gives a speech about America's newfound direction. Maya then reveals information about Rhetoric and Haisley's baby.

Ellington's Chief of Police, a BATA leader, has been tasked by the Constitutional Liberty Plan with delivering his township to General Schenk. But Captain Dick's wife, a Liberal, is the mayor who will most certainly be butchered during the coup. Captain Dick's old partner, killed ten years earlier, suddenly appears in the form of a ghost.  

A lot has happened, here's a short "Previously On" episode of the most important events from each episode, and a look toward the next.
