The imminent threat of an interdimensional incursion from an unstoppable enemy looms as Devon races to complete the preparations necessary to prevent it. During a lull in the action, Amanda, Beth, and Odessa take a moment to take stock of how far they've come in the past two years. Beth and Odessa grapple with devastating news amid an uncertain future.

Beth and Odessa find themselves back in the thick of things, dealing both with the fallout from their multiverse adventures and the impact of what they learned about themselves and their loved ones while they were away.

Meanwhile, Devon and the Brotherhood use what they've learned from Beth and Odessa's travels to get the portal equipment up and running so they can close off the interdimensional pathway and prevent the Untainted from invading.

As Beth and Odessa reel from a pair of startling revelations, their resolve to find their way back home strengthens further. As they weigh their options, they turn to trusted friends as well as their new allies and must decide whether or not to tell them the true nature of their presence here.

After discovering the source of the anomalies that have plagued Appalachia and thrown their lives into disarray, Beth and Odessa find themselves separated as they struggle to ground themselves amid a seismic shift in their situation.

Beth finds comfort with her family while Odessa teams up with powerful new allies who provide insight into the nature of the anomalies and may finally provide the beginnings of a strategy to deal with them.

The team formulates a plan to determine the source of the phenomenon in an attempt both to discern its origins and to stop it before its impact spreads.

The coded message Beth sent leads Odessa to visit an old friend who provides new information that both sheds light on what Beth was investigating and heightens the mystery.

Derek comforts Odessa as they discuss the changes in both of their lives since their breakup, and he and his team continue to evaluate the Appalachian Brotherhood of Steel. That evaluation is interrupted by a jarring event at Fort Atlas that leads them to Amanda's bar and an experience that none of them could've imagined.

Odessa awaits the return of the woman she loves as she navigates seismic changes in her life that turned her world upside down in an instant.
