Starters

Callie returns to the body bank. The guards apprehend her when Tinnenbaum instructs them to. She wants to see the Old Man, which is phase one of her plan. They take her to him because he also wants to see her. Once with him, she presses her tiny alert button to initiate phase two. She stalls and offers a trade with the Old Man. She wants to trade her body permanently for Tyler’s well-being, and she wants to see him one more time. The Old Man agrees but won’t let her see Tyler again. He says she’ll just have to trust him, and she argues that isn’t fair. She alters her condition to Tyler’s freedom and a glimpse under her mask. The room goes dark.

Callie realizes the Old Man used an illusion to get away. She presses the alarm button again as stage two begins. Marshals come in and arrest the body bank employees. Terry helps Callie pursue the Old Man, who is in his heli behind a pilot. Callie grabs onto the heli and sees a person in a bag next to him. She tries to rip off the Old Man’s mask, but he gets away. She worries Tyler is in the bag. They question Doris about the Old Man and Tyler. Rhiannon returns to her 125-year-old large body, and Madison, the teen, wakes up in hers. Enders in teen bodies have returned to the facility thanks to a doctored message that looks like Prime telling them to come back for a recall on their chips. They use this to return all Enders to their bodies and teens to theirs. Trax, the computer nerd, says he saw Tyler there and takes her to a far wing, but he’s not there.

Callie realizes Tyler would hide as soon as he heard the marshals, and she checks the bathroom, where she finds him hiding in the ceiling above a closed toilet seat. He comes out. Everyone cries. Tyler says Florina was pushed out of the car but that she got up, she’ll be okay, and has a great-aunt in Santa Rosa. Lauren tells Callie that Mrs. Winterhill left a note to Callie before her rental that left half her estate and a guest house to Callie because she felt bad for having to use a teen’s body at all. Callie is so happy to have a home at last.

Callie takes Tyler to their new home and they love it. Tyler finds a heavy dog statue that he loves so much he sleeps with it. They start to rebuild their lives at Helena’s house. Lauren is their legal guardian, and her lawyer is working to help Callie. Callie is committed to finding Emma, who will have the other half of the estate. She feels like she owes it to Helena. Michael moves into a cottage to make art but leaves. Callie figures he’s going to see Florina. This makes Callie miss Blake. She decides to go by his house, and when she sees Blake’s car outside, she goes in. They check her for weapons. Blake thinks it’s a prank and doesn’t recognize her. Callie reminds him of a photo they took together on their first date at the ranch after horseback riding. Senator Harrison explains that Blake doesn’t know anything, that he thinks he was just sick for a few weeks.

The Old Man had kidnapped Blake, taken Blake’s body, and used the threat of killing Harrison’s grandson to get Harrison to push Prime’s agenda at the White House. She leaves without saying bye to Blake and feels stupid. She works through her memories, imagining them with the Old Man instead of Blake and has conflicted feelings. Callie and Tyler go to the guest house, where Tyler goes fishing. Callie goes inside to make cacao and sees a rare orchid on the counter, the same kind the Old Man as Blake gave her at the ranch. She hears the Old Man in her head. He wants her to come work for him. He says he knows she’ll come eventually, that the kids won’t survive, and that he can afford to wait for her. She looks everywhere for him, to figure out where he is, but he disappears from her mind.

A week after, Prime is demolished, and many people watch. Callie sees Michael across the way, but she also sees Blake, who is closer. Michael looks sad, but she can’t run away from Blake. He tells her he looked at the photo and can’t believe how happy he was. He wants to figure things out with her. Callie doesn’t have a lot of confidence they can rebuild something that was never there, but she hears another voice in her head. It’s her father’s message to run. She looks around everywhere. Blake wants to know if she’s okay and squeezes her hand as the body bank is destroyed.
