Big moves. Bigger betrayals. And a very unexpected reunion. Paul and Caroline are back on the podcast to break down every twist in Episode 6, “Surprise.”

June and Moira finally escape Jezebels—thanks to the reluctant help of High Commander Lawrence. Though wary of helping Mayday, June tempts him with the promise of being the last commander standing in Boston if he plays his cards right. Lawrence gets Moira back to the border, but June stays behind to tie up dangerous loose ends.

She convinces Nick to retrieve letters hidden in a guardian’s safe. He agrees, but it puts him in the crosshairs. Commander Bell spots Nick at Jezebels and wastes no time telling High Commander Wharton.

Instead of fleeing, June and Nick take a risky detour—craving time alone. But back at Nick’s house, they walk into a trap: Wharton is waiting. As Wharton moves to have Nick arrested, Nick makes a desperate play. In a stunning end-of-episode reveal, we learn he’s turned over Mayday’s entire plot to bomb Jezebels—with all the commanders inside.

Meanwhile, June seeks refuge with the last person she should trust: Serena Joy. Their uneasy peace holds—barely. Serena allows June to stay the night, a brief moment of calm before chaos returns. When Nick later arrives with plans for them to flee to Paris, Wharton follows close behind. June and Nick hide, but she soon overhears Nick’s devastating betrayal.

In this week’s podcast, we unpack:

Lawrence’s shifting loyalties

June and Nick’s dangerous choices

The complex, ever-evolving bond between June and Serena

And what Nick’s betrayal means for the resistance—and for June’s heart
