Reeling from the realization that the appearance of the anomaly coincided with the disappearance of Kat, Hes reaches out to her best friend Kyle. They decide to go do some violence, then get a message from Lisa (a member of tower security) about something the stranger left in the Vault.

So they decide to commit a burglary instead, taking more than what they came for and committing violence on the way out. They also touch something they shouldn’t have and end up face-to-face with the devil.

Our shadows learn of the secret Theo has been keeping hidden from the world, as well as gaining proof that the Old Men’s power may not be as solid as they pretend it to be.

There are also plans in place to shift the seat of power away from the Old Men and into the hands of a new generation of leaders. The move is taking place tomorrow, though it seems the Stranger is making a move of his own to make sure they fail.

Hes and Cole get a chance to meet the members of Multae, led by Hes' mom, and Angel joins in soon after. They have been researching the Stranger and trying to put the pieces together. And it seems they have some pieces that our Shadows need. Including when this all really began.

Angel instructs Millie to listen in on the conversations in the bar and to let her know when the Stranger plans to leave, while she waits outside in her car. While sitting at the bar, Millie is greeted by an old friend of hers, Izobel, who happens to be an associate of George who is there for similar reasons. After a few minutes of talking past each other, they agree to work together.

Hes returns to the theater to collect some strings and runs into Cole as he brings Lily to listen to the recording. Lily is not as shocked by this as they expected her to be, but once Hes realizes what is going on she gets very upset.

Most of the cards are on the table, and Lily may have the connection they need to answer some questions as to how the Stranger got here.

Angel has some questions to ask of a person in power within the Wizards Tower (aka the Lab) and Hes needs to pick up some supplies for the device she and Windward are building. So they do a bit of a team-up. Angel searches for some way to shift the balance of power while Hes collects what she needs.

They also get some tantalizing bits of information on the Stranger and hints on how he's been exerting control over their city.
