**Twilight** is the seventh episode of *gen:LOCK* Season 2. It premiered on December December 16, 2021, for HBO Max.

## Summary

While the RTASA goes into lockdown because of the Gen:LOCK Team's invasion, Henry performs a test on a holographic brain to unlock it, but fails. At that same time, a single guard holds Migas at gunpoint and leads him down a hallway. Thanks to Cammie hacking into the base's system, Migas escapes and during this, the guard is bifurcated by a barrier; Migas then takes the guard's gun and runs away.

Meanwhile, Cammie reveals herself to Chase and the rest of the Gen:LOCK team, as well as to Miranda and Driana. Cammie details that she's ascended into the Flow and ever since she's managed to return she has become Nanofied, but still has trouble controlling its capabilities. Just outside of the base, Odin is activated, and under Marin's orders fires his Gungnir cannon at the barrier surrounding the base. Inside of said base, the impact of the cannon is felt, and Miranda requests that Cammie burrow the base into the ground and she does so. Watching the video feed from her room, Marin tries to contact Miranda, but is frustrated that she's unable to. Realizing that Miranda has become a turncoat, she orders Odin to obliterate them and Odin readies to fire his Gungnir beam once again. Chase then appears before the group in the hangar and Driana sees if he's alright. On the other hand, King Demon stands beside him and threatens that if Chase doesn't come with him, his entire life will be a living nightmare. The base is hit again by the Gungnir and Cammie notes that if the base is hit again, it'll be destroyed, hence Miranda suggests that Cammie tunnel the base to the Colorado Inferno for protection. Yaz volunteers herself and Val to act as cover and manage to distract Odin from the main group.

Miranda reveals that the person piloting Odin is Rob, which, Driana finds impossible as he hates the Polity. Miranda surmises that Marin enslaved Rob to Odin just like she did with the Holon frames. With the Colorado Inferno being 10 clicks away, Chase struggles to not break under the pressure. Outside, Odin manages to land a hit on the Gen:Lock team's airship putting Yaz and Val in trouble. Back inside the base, Chase struggles to keep his sanity as King Demon whales on him. He reveals that his intention wasn't only to destroy the RTASA base, to destroy the Holon clones, but to prevent himself from becoming "Him". Cammie then consoles Chase and reassures him that he'll be fine if he goes through the Door while she and everyone else take care of Odin.

Brother Tate observes Odin in action and is shown to be aware of his true identity and how the Polity used him as another weapon for their disposal. Brother Sugiyama then reports that the Bronx Seawall is about to break and it does flooding the surrounding area while killing the people within the periphery. In his own tearful words, Tate comments on how New York will vanish. Despite Dr. Fatima Jha's plea to not allow hubris to cloud his judgment, however, Tate still engulfs the remaining people in New York into Twilight noting it's his duty to save the "lost lambs". Apathetically, Jha agrees with Tate, which pleases him and he then leaves to confer with his generals, leaving her to ponder.

At the Colorado Inferno, Odin is led there and Yaz is notified by Miranda that they're about to burrow up from the ground to aggro Odin. Chase returns to his room where his Roberta sitting beside King Demon asks him to get the door. Without hesitation, Chase goes through it and is followed by King Demon who closes it behind him. The RTASA base is now fully resurfaced, but with a giant gaping hole in its barrier. Miranda comments how fun it is to drive a small city as Odin chases after it. Outside, Cammie uses her nano abilities to manifest two cannons and fires at Odin, but this proves to be futile; therefore, Cammie takes a more direct approach and tries to punch Odin's forehead, but a beam fires at her knocking her backward and making her fall back onto the base.

Jha tries to override the Twilight, but is unsuccessful. Sugiyama points a gun at Dr. Fatima declaring that he disabled her access to the Twilight program noting her betrayal to the Union. However, Fatima argues that the Union's actions are no better than the ones of the Polity. She then knocks out Sugiyama and uses his Union card to gain access to the Twilight program.

Meanwhile, inside the Door, Chase watches the memories of his otherself. He's joined by King Demon who stands beside him and during the viewing, King Demon transforms into his Union form and consoles Chase. Back on the battlefield, part of Cammie's left starts to deteriorate. Migas still armed with his gun, rushes to the scene, and the moment he tries to help Cammie, the Flow emerges from her left side and devours Migas's right arm allowing Cammie's left side to recover. Furious about how the battle with Odin against the Gen:LOCK team is proceeding, Marin is informed that the Union has unleashed the Twilight and then watches a video feed of it. In light of this, Marin sends out the order to have all of holon frames be sent to New York City and demands that Odin finish off the Gen:LOCK Ship and then head to New York. With Migas in her arms, Cammie hacks into the lab that Henry is in, and while surprised to see her, he's then informed of Migas' situation. She has Migas get medical treatment and then visits Dr. Weller's (AI)'s domain. She confines to him her condition and how she ascended. The AI informs that the greatest possibility of how Cammie managed to reassemble herself from the nanotech is because of her Gen:Lock capabilities. With that all in mind, the AI's purpose has been fulfilled and starts to dissipate allowing Caliban full control over his body again and transforming the surrounding area into a lush and green area. Continuing with the fight below, Val is shot out of the ship and their holon loses power.

Chase makes peace with his other self and Cammie is notified by Henry about the Twilight ascension in New York. Henry then has an epiphany that Cammie is the key to saving everyone there and Cammie hacks into the base to direct it to New York. Val lays on the ground in a blank void and sitting beside them is Kazu who informs them that they're alright, they just have a concussion. Although Val laments their lack of resolve to continue fighting, Kazu reassures them and kisses them on their cheek. Awakening from their sleep, Caliban greets Val and is informed by Yaz that they're ejecting from the base. Watching more of his other self's memory, Chase merges with his other self and reforms back into the real world, and is met by Driana and Miranda. Migas accompanied by Cammie arrives and they're informed of their impending doom with Odin on their tail, so Cammie hopes to mindshare the plan with him. The Gen:LOCK airship crashes into Odin as Val, Yaz, and Caliban escape. Given an opportunity, Cammie hacks into Odin and emancipates Rob who awakens from his pod and then finds a small scalpel. The moment, Val, Yaz, and Caliban land on the RTASA base, Odin starts to power down, and the base burrows into the ground to avoid any casualties from crashing into the oncoming city. Finally managing to complete the Unlock, Henry contacts Marc Holcroft.

Emerging from the ground, the Gen:LOCK team witness the power of Twilight and are then engulfed by it.
