Tony and Wednesday fought against the Faceless Hero together while George was fighting against Henric and Fred. Tom arrived at Alana's trap. He had carried Tasha so as to mock her with his comrade.

Alana laughed and said that he simply died because of a hallucination. She remarked that it was the power of [Breakdown].
