Cybersix S1 E13

## Plot

The plot of the final episode starts with the crew of a ship hitting a giant island that suddenly showed up on their radar. The island is alive and can move and breathe. It destroys the ship, and the men jump into a lifeboat. Von Reichter is once again reprimanding José for losing to Cyber 6. After he hangs up, his son tells him not to treat him like a fool. Data 7 sees him, his Fixed Ideas, and Sylvester leave in two trucks and jumps on one of them. He eventually jumps off and sees them enter a building similar to a lighthouse or observatory, but with more security. Von Reichter himself is there, and the two make eye contact before Data 7 leaves. He shows José the moving island, which easily destroys a freighter with a tentacle. José sees that the password is The Late Cybersix. The island is also a large bomb, and will explode in ten hours. At midnight, it will arrive in central Meridiana and destroy the city. José is upset because he controls the city and it's his, but Von Reichter tells him that after it's gone, the rest of the world will have to take notice. The lighthouse worker in the actual lighthouse sees the island. The coast guard is informed. Adrian points it out to Lucas, who says that islands don't float. Adrian gets a pain in her arm, but Lucas doesn't notice. She's gone too long without sustenance. When she gets back to her apartment, she sees Data 7 with the photo of them as kids. She learns from him that Von Reichter is here. He has something to do with that island. Cyber 6 needs to do one last thing before they confront him. The coast guard's boats are easily pushed back by the waves the island's tentacles make. Cyber 6 shows up at Lucas's apartment, and he correctly guesses that whatever she has to tell him has something to do with the island. She came here to thank him for everything he's done for her, and say goodbye, because she knows she might not survive this fight. He tries to kiss her, but she tells him that she's not human. It's clear that he doesn't care, and they finally kiss. Cyber 6 sheds a tear and leaves. The island arrives in the middle of Meridiana, crushing buildings along the way. When Von Reichter leaves, José says that he deserves the glory. As people are evacuating, Cyber 6 sees Lori and wordlessly puts the glasses of her alter ego on her family's car, basically telling her her secret identity. Data 7 visits a sleeping Julian on the boat he's staying at. Is that the same one from episode 4? Cyber 6 and Data 7 easily defeat the Fixed Ideas at the entrance to the base and go inside. José hides in another hallway when he sees them, and decides to finish everyone. Lucas and Lori go after Cyber 6. We don't hear what they say to each other, but it seems like Lucas finally knows the truth about his friend Adrian. José gets into the computer and has the island change course for the base. Cyber 6 and Data 7 find a room full of Von Reichter's experiments in tanks of sustenance. C says she needs this like others need water, and wonders if she'll ever be free of it. It's revealed that even in the tanks, the creatures are awake and aware. Cyber 6 and Data 7 are attacked by a large Fixed Idea. C's attacks have no effect on it… until the tanks start glowing and the creatures heal her arm. Von Reichter shows up and applauds her performance. She tells him to stop the island or she'll kill him. He reminds her that without him to make more people, creatures, and monsters, she'll eventually die from lack of sustenance. If she has to die to stop him though, she will. He calls her bluff, because he's the only one who can stop the island, so she won't kill him. He offers her the chance to work for him, and in exchange, he'll free her of her need for sustenance. José and Sylvester leave right as they enter the computer lab. They see that the island is heading straight for them. The city is still in the blast radius though. The bomb will explode in two minutes. Von Reichter realizes that José betrayed him. Of course he did, you idiot! Just because someone is biologically capable of having kids doesn't mean they should, and it *definitely* doesn't guarantee that they'll be a good parent. If anything, I'm only surprised that José didn't betray his "father" sooner with all the verbal mistreatment. Don't get me wrong, José isn't a good person either, but no child deserves to be neglected or abused, especially by their parents or guardians. While he and Sylvester are leaving though, the island knocks down a tree that seems to hit their vehicle and kill them before we cut away from the presumably fatal impact. Cyber 6 refuses to join Von Reichter, and accepts the fact that they'll die. She has him move the island into the forest so the explosion leaves Meridiana unharmed. There's a minute and a half left on the countdown. In a last ditch effort to escape and finally kill Cyber 6, Von Reichter unleashes all of the creatures in the tanks. However, they refuse to hurt her and surround Von Reichter instead. There's thirty seconds left. They know they'll all die in the explosion with him, and they're okay with that. One of them points Cyber 6 and Data 7 to the exit. Lucas and Lori see the cliff where the base was explode in the distance. That explosion is big, but it doesn't look big enough to blow up all of Meridiana. I thought the whole island was going to explode. Everyone else feels and sees the explosion and resulting fire, like Julian. A little while later, Lucas is at the cafe that he frequented with Adrian/Cyber 6, holding her glasses. While walking home though, he sees a light on in her apartment, smiles, and runs there, hinting that she and Data 7 were able to make it out in time. How does he know where she lives? Maybe she finally told him her address at some point after episode 4. In a recording, Von Reichter says that Cyber 6 is his greatest failure, but she displays great courage, and he admires that. José is listening to the recording, revealing that he and presumably Sylvester survived the incident with the car. This sets José up as a presumably more effective villain for the unfortunately cancelled second season.
