Again, a revelation. We find out RA has bomb, and learn why Russell brought bomb, to destroy gate. We see that captured soldiers are now in RA's retinue, a revelation. Russell gets weapon, but he can't shoot through children to get at RA, because of what happened to his son. Russell is thrown in with other, captured soldiers.
Ships go out to blast natives.
Spader escapes being changed over to being part of RA's retinue. Spader and RA talk, and we learn RA plans to send bomb back to Earth with mineral so it will ruin gate on Earth by generating a major explosion, and RA will be left undisturbed as a God. To prove his power, RA explains that he must publicly have Spader kill his friends, since natives have worshipped Spader. Children gather at pyramid with adults to watch execution. Children have guns.
