Grounded

Grounded is the 9th episode in Season 1 of Bionic Superhero Secret Service Division: The Next Generation. 
==Plot==
Zuri, albeit still in her coma, uses her Gideon matrix to take control of Jack’s body. Inside of Jack, she flies the Waverider to the far future, only to find a nightmarish dystopian society. Jack has become world dictator and rendered the murder of all people possessing magical powers. She finds Emma cold and distant, a mere shell sluggishly serving drinks at a shabby tavern. Evangeline is dead, Xander is dead, Christopher has gone insane, Jorge is paralyzed, Ravi I is chopping people’s heads off, and she and Griff are wanted criminals. Knowing this world cannot happen, Zuri weakens Jack to the point that he will be dead by 2089, then writes a note for Jack under the guise of Zachary Reynolds using his body. Crashing the Waverider in Japan, Zuri evacuates Jack and decides the next best order of business is to get everyone out of New York, the city Jack will one day rule from. She transfers her mind to Maddie’s deceased body and claims to be the true Queen Of America. She decides to become harsh to prevent Diggie from discovering the truth. In the guise of Queen Maddie, she commits many murders and writes notes to the rest of the team as Zachary Reynolds. Upon Michael Rooney’s destruction of the matrix, she finally awakens from her coma, her testosterone levels incredibly high. Zuri discovers that while she’s been away, Kikiwaka has closed down, as Jorge is unfortunately in a vegetative state. Zuri moves in with Griff to help care for Jorge. While living together, Zuri and Griff decide to switch genders, with Zuri taking on the name Zachary and Griff taking on the name Greta. Zachary kidnaps Shirley, Franklin, Amelia, and Emily, as well as researching the activities of Emma, Xander, Lou, Luke, Tiffany, and Tessa. Luke and Tessa have in fact opened a tavern, so Zuri buys it and leaves them dead broke. The thought of power corrupts her, however, and she ends up banning people with powers throughout America. Trapped in Iraq, Xander and Emma are framed by Kaz and jailed. Lou drowns, which leads to Zachary giving up his kinghood to Luke, who lives life peacefully with Tessa as a ruler. Tiffany helps Zachary locate the team to explain the horrible future, but it ends up taking a lot of effort.
== Trivia ==
* This is the last of the "recruitment" episodes, as the Best Friends Whenever cast had a solid conclusion to their storylines in Worst Enemies Never, the Arrow X4 series finale.
