Five (Aidan Gallagher) and Lila (Ritu Arya) return from the Commission with news of the end of the world. Five goes in search of answers, with only the tattoo of his older self to lean on leading him to an unexpected reunion and a choice to bend to fate’s will, whatever may come. Klaus (Robert Sheehan) returns from the dead with the realization that he’ died several times before and seeks understanding about his powers from his father which will offer payoffs in the next few episodes.
Lila and Diego (David Castañeda), in search of the missing Stan (Javon ‘Wanna’ Walton), go on a bizarre journey through the looking glass to the Hotel Oblivion, following the hidden passage in the White Buffalo Suite to a mirror world which will exact a measure of blood before letting them return. Lila also lets it slip that Stan isn’t their son, something that doesn’t take the sting off when the latest wave of the Kugelblitz makes him cease to exist.
Viktor decides against turning over Harlan (Callum Keith Rennie) to the Sparrows and enlists Allison‘s (Emmy Raver-Lampman) help to get him out of the hotel, allowing the time necessary to take back the powers inadvertently bestowed on him decades before. However, after discovering just what Viktor is keeping from the family, Allison will make a rash decision. Filled with pent-up rage, she’ll also toy with Luther‘s (Tom Hopper) affections once again pushing him further into the arms of the Sparrow. She really is the worst.
