Tom puts together a plan to escape the Espheni Ghetto. He will lead the Skitters away and into a trap, while Dingaan Botha uses the suit to climb the electric fence and then blow up the tether. Hal is responsible for getting all the residents into the tunnel to escape.

They run into a snag with Dingaan Botha's hand is injured, so Pope takes over. He loses the backpack, but is able to recover and get over the fence. He falls and is knocked unconscious. When he wakes up he blows up the tether, but the explosion doesn't take it out entirely. Using a metal bar, Pope disconnects the tether.

Hal gets the people to safety, except Skitters follow an elderly couple. The man dies. They block the Skitters and when the fence goes down everyone else escapes.
