When the NYPD realizes the victims of the butcher are all criminals, and this is leaked to the public, some of the citizens praise the butcher, feeling he's a better hero than Dark Angel and his team.

Jason gets in a fight at school, leaving the bully with a black eye. Alex and Jason talk about incident. Alex recalls when he was in school. Alex recalls a specific incident in high school where Alex ( Young Alex played by David Mazouz ) was bullied for being rich. The bully went as far as mocking Alex about his dead parents.

Back in the present, Alex meets Jessica’s father. When Jessica leaves for a moment, her father threatens to kill Alex, but Alex easily disarms him.

Alex pleads with him to stop killing, feeling that there is goodness within anyone, and that no criminal is beyond redemption. Theodore insists that what he does is necessary, that by murdering criminals he stops them from doing wrong ever again, while Alex merely delays the inevitable by injuring them. Their debate culminates in Theodore revealing a bloodied Dragos, whom he caught stealing a car in an attempt to flee the city. Strapping a gun with a single bullet to Alex’s hand, offering him the choice of killing Dragos, killing Theo before he kills Thorne, or doing nothing and living with the fact that his actions caused someone's death anyway.

Alex tries fighting Theodore, but loses. Theodore explains to Alex how S.T.R.I.K.E. cloned Alex, and that's how Theodore was created.

Lucis is expelled from school after a kid tried stabbing him, but Lucis revered the stab in self defense, stabbing the attacker.
