Episode 19 “The Unbeliever”

Sometimes the scariest part isn't what you see, it's what’s been watching you all along. With the dimensional tear growing unstable and the facility itself warping around them, Luke makes a desperate choice that changes everything. 

As forgotten memories surge back, he confronts not only a reflection of himself, but the truth behind who, and what, he really is.

The ritual in Whitefall, the cult of Mal, the entities on the other side… it was never just coincidence. 

And Luke? He’s more than a psychic. He’s something much stranger, something that can unmake reality itself.

Is this the beginning of the end?

As Luke, Grant, Terry, and Dr. Calder prepare for their final push toward the heart of the facility, reality itself begins to unravel around them. Increasingly intact roads, seemingly sentient fog, and haunting horrors test their physical and mental limits as they fight their way toward the source of the dimensional breach. But, what begins as a tactical mission quickly turns personal as Luke feels a strange pull toward the tear — and begins to remember things he probably shouldn’t. With the team splitting up to activate a failsafe system embedded in the facility’s geometric design, the stakes are higher than ever. Reality is collapsing, time is running out, and something — or someone — is waiting just on the other side.
