The team discover an aberration within Reagan's administration. It is Damien Thomas.

## Plot

The scene opens on Damien Thomas, in a very Miami Vice-enlivened medication bargain during the '80s. For the medications, he's demanded a relic - a Fasces- rather than money. It turns sour when the DEA appears, however they're immediately dispatched by the Reverse-Blur.

It's been a very long time since Matthews and Thomas have cooperated, however now Matthews needs another shot. And keeping in mind that Damien is hesitant, Matthews guarantees him "real power."

Carrie attempts (and neglects) to persuade Gemini and Jason about the benefits of tweaking time in little manners. The others state that is not what Alex depended them to do.

Caitlin visits with Curtis, who is attempting to set up a "period seismograph" to recognise aberrations before they occur. It works, and drives them to 1987 - where the group join on the White House.

Lamentably for them, both the more youthful Gemini Flannigan and Damien Thomas are working with the President, making penetration tricky... especially when Jason loses it and attempts to execute Thomas, prompting a dangerous showdown with the Secret Service.

In the interim, Caitlin and Curtis - who had fizzled with sights set on a genuine discussion on board the Chrysalis - search a KOJ training warehouse and get themselves up close and personal with Obsidian and Sentinel - forty-five years more established and asking why Starbright left the KOJ during the '40s.

Back at the Chrysalis, the group keeps on arguing about whose deficiency the wreck at the White House was. They make sense of that Thomas being there likely implies that their time-traveling adversary is included, so they need to tell Caitlin.

Obsidian discloses to Caitlin and Curtis that the KOJ passed on a strategic Leipzig in 1956 — one which he'd been kept separate from on the grounds that the administration didn't accept he could be trusted.

Caitlin vows to fix history and spare the Knights of Justice when it's totally done.

Back at the Chrysalis, the group investigates Thomas' association with the Reagan Administration, discovering that he has a secret gathering today. Jason sends Kieran and Ryan to keep an eye on him.

A man comes to meet with Damien — it's an individual from the Soviet assignment, and the pair have plans to "convey a bundle" for the KGB at a state supper.

Young Gemini is strolling through the recreation centre — he evidently avoided a birthday supper with Presley to be there and meet Damien. He has a pitch he needs Damien to get before President Reagan, however when he understands that Thomas is meeting with a Soviet specialist, Damien cuts him. The more seasoned Gemini falls on board the Chrysalis too. Damien leaves, and Ryan and Kieran go attempt to save young Gemini.

In the Medbay, the two Flannigan's are there, however Thursday is just mending the more youthful one, so both will recoup. The pair contend, with the more established Gemini reprimanding his more youthful self for being harsh toward Presley.

Curtis and Caitlin make sense of that they will require Obsidian's assistance to manage Damien at the state supper. They go to him for help, however he's hesitant, saying that Caitlin's sentimental trap with Patrick Tyler during the '40s was amateurish and traded off her objectivity.

In the Medbay, Gemini and Ryan talk about battling with their own characters. Toward the end of the discussion, Jason appears and asks if Gemini is up for the state supper.

They show up, where Lance Tennant and Mary Christina Riley meets them, and very quickly drew nearer by Presley, who ponders where Gemini is. She's not very stressed, since it's so regular for him to forget about time.

In the storm cellar of the state supper, Damien is selling dispatch codes to the soviets in return for another ancient rarity — this one concealed, however in a ring box. Obsidian, Starbright, Steel, Jason, Lexi and Sentinel shut down the Russians however Damien makes a getaway. Gemini and Jenny make a beeline for Presley and not to mention Reagan, and Gorbachev from the bomb Thomas planted as an interruption.

Ryan figures out how to discover the bomb and void the assembly hall while Jason battles a Russian man-mountain in the storm cellar. After beginning reservations, Kieran persuades him that he'll have the option to make all the difference. He needs to disassemble the virus weapon to take the bomb out. Kieran instructs him to proceed.

In the cellar, Damien shoots Obsidian, who steps before a bullet to spare Starbright. Jason gets down to business with Damien, disclosing to him that he is saving him to draw out his affliction. He mentions to him what befalls him toward the end of Saltire season 4, which plainly shakes him, yet he can't appreciate it for long in light of the fact that Matthews shows up and speeds him away.

Before Carter showed up, however, Jason figured out how to take the relic from Damien.

On the Chrysalis, the two Gemini's contend quickly, before the senior one at long last persuades the more youthful to improve by Presley.

In the Medbay, Lance Tennant recoups from being shot, yet chooses to return to his sweetheart in 1987 as opposed to battle close by the Legends. After he leaves, Caitlin at last gives Curtis some knowledge into his granddad's character.

Somewhere else, Damien reveals to Matthews that he's frantic to change his future and will currently go along with him. Carter uncovers a Time Sphere, and the two take off together.
