## Episode Description

The Curator, with Theodosia's heart of malice, is not playing any more games. She will take this battle to the most bitter and bloodiest end, as the guests are thrown into an all out world wide war! With the tensions amongst the Soviets and Americans arising, it'll take all you got to survive. However, the mysterious man that has arrived, may be someone you have never expected to be... and disobeying him would be very unwise.

## Episode Summary

As the unknown soldier shot at the enemy snipers, the guests ducked, some hiding and others shooting back at the enemy. Once the last one collapsed under the soldier's shot, the soldier then introduced himself as Oscar Carpenter, who the guests deduce is Jordan's father and the Warlock, only younger. Oscar then revealed that he was on a personal mission in the Cold War, and the guests then agreed to help Oscar complete his mission in order to find the next key, before the soldier helped the guests arm themselves on weapons. The armed guests then followed Oscar out of the ruined lounge, and they headed off to the nearest military boot camp, where Soviet soldiers shot at the group. After the guests then shot the soldiers down, the Cowboy getting a scar across his cheek in the process, the group are able to kill all the soldiers.

After Oscar ensures the guests' safety, the guests then start scouring the camp for how to communicate with Oscar's commander. They then manage to find a blueprint list of a makeshift radio, and they find the components of the radio before putting it together with Payton's expertise. Chris then answered the microphone while Valeria listened through the microphone, as the commander then revealed himself to be Henri Pierre, much to the guests' anguish. Chris and Valeria then manage to retrieve the information of Oscar's mission from Henri, before the guests reassured Valeria as they swore to fight through the night. Oscar then led the guests to the coordinates that Henri had given them, where they then discovered a secret military base.

Oscar then led the guests to a hatch not far away from the base, and breaks it open before he allowed the guests to enter. After the guests and Oscar entered the base, they then crept through the hallways, soon disarming a group of soldiers they encountered, before they ended up in a communications room. They then found various listings, maps, folders and notes, all written in Russian text, which Payton and Valeria manage to translate, while Monica discovered a skeletal key. The guests then manage to piece together the project numbers to a map with coordinates on to discover a hint to a project called Red Nemesis. They then discovered a compartment, which contained a secret map that detailed the Soviet base, with a red room on the other side of the base.

At the other end of the base, they eventually found the Red Room, where they used Monica's key, unlocking it. They then entered, and saw a broken display, before the door they had gone through slammed behind them. As they become more alert of their surroundings, Chris finds a note that tells them to keep their friends close, and their enemies closer. The guests then figure out that Oscar had strung them up to be killed, as Oscar then pointed out the guests from Jordan Carpenter's night, the three that died at his hands. He then admitted that he lured them into the trap, so Henri could steal the mysterious project, in exchange for being the Curator's second in command. When Chris demanded that he let them out, Oscar then asked if he was willing to shoot him, before Valeria attempted to con Oscar. After she failed, the guests started looking for a way out, as Alehandro and Chris destroy Oscar, killing him, but not before Oscar pushed a remote button. The walls then started to close in on them, before Valeria and Monica are able to reach a hatch in the ceiling, leading to the guests' escape. The guests escaped, as the walls closed in, but not before Valeria managed to salvage Oscar's jacket.

Outside the base, they searched Oscar's jacket, before finding a clue in the pocket watch Oscar had, reading 'All there is, is time'. The guests then deduce that the same pocket watch that had passed from Oscar to Jordan, and then Jordan to his close friend, had an answer. Valeria then found a small key and a note in the pocket watch, the note forcing them to vote two for the whereabouts of the Curator and Henri Pierre, and the tenth key. The guests then voted, and Jordan Winchester shuffled the votes and drew Alehandro and Alexander as the two contestants. The two then bade their farewells, and they traded valuable items before the two challengers headed off to what awaited them. They then saw two nuclear rockets and a series of wires attached to them, as well a couple stations of Battleship. The two challengers are then tied to the rocket, and they placed their five soldiers on an 8x8 grid, before they began the game.

After a series of missed guesses, Alexander manages to hit one of Alehandro's soldiers, and the latter narrowly avoided death. Alehandro then hits one of Alexander's soldiers, and after a lot of more missed guesses, Alexander manages to strike down two more of Alehandro's soldiers. When Jordan Winchester was forced to switch the fourth wire toward the Prince's side, unlike the last three wires that fizzled out halfway through, the spark warming the rocket up. As the engine roared, Alehandro was then launched into the sky before his rocket exploded in a fiery blaze, killing the Prince in an instant death. Alexander was then freed by Jordan, and the two then retrieved the tenth key that was concealed in a compartment under that fateful fourth switch.

Meanwhile, the remaining guests then saw the cloud of fire that had erupted from the explosion. They then saw Alexander return, the broken Cowboy getting embraced by his friends, before the guests swore to put an end to the night, once and for all. The guests then entered the lounge, where Alexander then put the tenth key in the vault, before silence fell over the guests once again. Then a hatch in the lounge clock opened, the guests then finding a note, reading 'the key holds the answer to the final exhibit', as the clock chimed five. The guests then examined the key that Val had gotten from the pocket watch, and they then headed to the foyer per the key's hint. They then found a glass case, which had a keyhole, in the foyer, which Valeria unlocked. Shortly after, a spiral staircase appeared in the floor, prompting the guests to discover Henri and the Curator.

Valeria finally finds peace in her final confrontation with her father, before the others then attacked Henri, as the Curator then started to emit magic in her own fingers. Then with her powers, Theodosia/The Curator then weakened the guardian angels' power on the world, causing the trio of angels to dissolve away. As the guests tried to attack Theodosia while Henri was being slain, the Curator turned into a spectral figure before causing the ground to shake. A sarcophagus then rose out of the ground, engulfing Henri's dead body in the coffin like case, before Henri rose again as the Mummy, who then started chasing them, amongst Theodosia's laughter.

It's now the endgame.
