The Caliphate, under Sheik Abdullah's direction, continues to put out propaganda videos inciting Abuddinians to violence against the government.

Instead of taking the opportunity to set himself up as Barry's enemy as she suggests, he intervenes when tensions between the military and students are at a boiling point, encouraging everyone to leave in peace.
