## Summary

The Founding Trio wakes up slowly. They're tired after a long night.

**107 Years Ago (2 Years Before Process 001)**

Samira examines a butterfly and tells Vitor and Laís that it's completely rehabilitated and reproducing already. The three of them continue walking.

Laís, Samira, and Vitor present their data storage center.

Samira speaks to her father and learns things are breaking down where he is. They want to start migration right away, even though the Offshore won't be ready for another year. In order to make room for those incoming, he says everyone but her who is already in the Offshore will have to leave. He demands that she arrange it immediately.

Michele asks André what the room they're in is.

Michele says they can wait there until the searches stop. He's upset that he's keeping her out of the Offshore, but she doesn't care. He looks around and says the room is familiar. He knows he's been there before. He sees an object on the table and remembers something.

**Construction Department: 1 and a half years ago**

André is working with Eugênio, who is holding the object. André shows him something he found on a map, an unfinished project. Eugênio is unconcerned with it, but André wants to check it out. André takes the object, a flashlight, and finds the entrance to the room. His retinal pattern doesn't match and he'd denied entry.

The Trio are upset to learn they're being forced out of the Offshore. Samira tries to calm the other two down, but they question her motives since her father is the one leading the charge to force them out. She tells them she's on their side. They need to be united. Their decisions have always been unanimous. They have to choose what they really believe in. Samira says they'll just refuse to leave. They can shut down submarine power to slow their arrival. They'll make it work together, as the Founding Trio.

Glória wakes up to a message about Process 105 starting tomorrow. She prepares herself for the start of the Process. She remembers Fernando believing she betrayed him.

Joana, Rafael, and Fernando talk over the radios. They are working on the plan to erase the Process data. There are two copies of the data. They have to erase both sides at the same time or it won't work. It has to be a team effort. Rafael has a way to get Fernando out of his cell to help them, a security ring. Rafael says this plan can work. They all agree they're in, but Joana wonders how they'll get her inside.

Rafael waits until no one is looking and smuggles Joana into a refrigeration box. She can only survive 40 minutes at that temperature, so she has to trust that he'll get her out before then.

Glória approaches the Process building but is stopped by a guard who is pushing the refrigerated box. She's told she can't go inside, but gives the guard medicine to give to her cousin.

André and Michele look through plans. Michele says it looks like a communications room.

The trio is working to keep the others out of the Offshore. Samira's father calls again. He's angry, but they tell him they oppose his invasion. She wants to negotiate. In exchange for them leaving peacefully, she asks him to fund an Offshore unit on the Inland, available to everyone. This news shocks Laís and Vitor. He says once they've settled in the Offshore, the trio can do whatever they want to the Inland. He wants them prepared to leave as soon as possible. She ends the call. Vitor and Laís say they won't leave the Offshore. Samira tries to convince them they can create something even better this time. They want to sabotage the Inland instead.

André and Michele find the recordings of these calls. Michele is surprised to learn the Founders were a Trio originally. André remembers that he's seen those video before. He starts to remember more about what happened.

Rafael is pushing the box when he comes across Marcela and Marcos. They have an awkward conversation, during which the timer goes off, telling him it's past time to get Joana out of the box. They part and Rafael drops the box. He says there are too many people around to open the box right now.

Fernando is granted one visitor. It's Glória. He claims not to know her. She brings in the medication and forces him to drink it. They talk quietly and she tries to convince him she didn't betray him. Fernando calls for her to be removed and asks her to leave, which she does.

Rafael finds Marco opening the refrigeration box. He's shocked to see that Joana isn't in it. Marco then claims he's there to get some vitamins. Rafael also learns Marco is running the militia. They're back at the last place they saw each other. Once Marco is gone, Rafael looks for Joana, who appears from nearby. He gives her a uniform to put on. Once she's dressed, he tells her of a place she can hide.

Glória tries to convince a guard to release Fernando and refuses to leave until that happens. She sends Glória to wait outside.

Fernando is told that Joana is inside the Process building, so he should be ready. Fernando is surprised when another man is brought into his cell and he's told he can go. He picks a fight with the guard and spits on her, so she punches him and tells him he can stay instead.

Glória is upset when the gate to the Process building closes without Fernando coming out.

Michele and André watch more recordings. They realize Samira wanted to save the Inland. André says it would have been a tragedy. He starts to remember killing Eugênio.

André leads Eugênio to the room and they get access. Inside, Eugênio plays the recordings and they learn about Samira.

Samira is angry that the other two want to sabotage the Inland. She watches as they discuss how to ruin the Inland. Samira is against it, but Laís and Vitor won't budge.

Eugênio wants to show the recordings to the Council, saying it changes everything. People need to know.

Samira fights with Laís and Vitor. They accuse Samira of not understanding how bad the world can be. She accuses them of being selfish, only looking out for themselves. If they sabotage the Inland, they'll be hurting people they were supposed to help. Vitor sends Samira to go rest and let them handle it.

Eugênio and André open a door and discover a skeleton in an adjacent room.

André leads Michele to the same skeleton.

Laís and Vitor work while Samira comes up behind them with a gun. She confronts them and tells them she just wants to stop them. Vitor tries to get the gun from her and in the chaos, Samira is shot and killed.

André tells Michel there's a reason the Founding Couple hid this. Michele says it's because they kill the third founder. André says it was for the good of everyone. He went through the Process and passed. So did Michele. They deserve it. Michele disagrees. André thinks the founders did what was right and so did he. Michele realizes he did murder Eugênio. He tries to defend himself.

Eugênio speaks of what he's seen and says they must make reparations to the Inland and stop living in the Offshore.

Laís and Vitor realize Samira has been shot and is dead. Laís and Vitor decide to continue doing what they were doing.

André takes a statue of the Founding Couple and hits Eugênio on the head with it.

Michele thinks what happened has made them all into killers.

The Inland is ruined.

André continues to hit Eugênio with the statue.

Michele is angry that André doesn't think he did anything wrong.

André is questioned about the murder. He asks Marcela if she'd have done it differently. She says she won't tell anyone what he just told her. She doesn't know what will happen to him because it's the first time it's ever happened. André says it's actually the second. She agrees to help him and says he'll undergo a simple treatment. She has him lie down.

Michele and André each think they're on the right side and the other is wrong. Michele used to believe in André.

Rafael comes to see Fernando. He pretends to be rough with Fernando, but secretly slips something under Fernando's thigh. The other guard with them then reveals that Fernando's own father is the one who turned him in, a surprise to Rafael and Fernando. Fernando is angry that his father is the one who turned him in and punches the wall until his fingers are bloody.

Marco tells Marcela his men are ready. She tells him they do everything they can to protect the Offshore. Suffering is good because it separates the strong from the weak.

Joana sees other guards coming, so she uses a box to obscure her face s she can get past safely. Then she climbs into an air vent and crawls through. She radios out when she's in position.

Fernando gets the ring and checks in with Rafael, who is on his way to the Offshore.

Michele is looking at the screen when Samira appears to her, bloody from being shot.

Michele goes to Samira's skeleton and retrieves her necklace. Then she takes the flashlight and leaves André without another word.
