Nolan (Grant Bowler) intercepts a shipment of weapons being transferred by two men working for Datak (Tony Curran).
Ulysses is kidnapping people who are living in the street and taking them to Miko (Robin Dunne), a human lab technician who is harvesting their adrenochrome to use as an illegal drug.
Rafe and Quentin descend into the sealed shaft and discover a set of cave paintings featuring the object.
Flashbacks in the episode tell the story of Amanda, Kenya, and their mother (Severn Thompson) during the Pale War.
As the young Amanda did not recognize the necklace as a St. Christopher's medal, she told Kenya it was "St. Finnegan, patron saint of lost children."
The episode ends with Datak taking his place on town's council, and Nolan realizing that Stahma is the more dangerous of the two.
The last scene contains an allusion to the character of Madame Defarge in A Tale of Two Cities: as Stahma sits knitting outside the door to the council chamber, Nolan comments "I had my eye on the wrong snake.
[...] I continue to hope that it’s just first-season jitters, but given the other things that Defiance does well, it’s easy to get impatient.."[3] Lisa Macklem from Spoiler TV stated that there were some excellent scenes but also a few instances of clunky dialogue.
