Summary

  The Ranshi have Cable captive. 2000 years in the future they conquered the galaxy, but the three witches warn the emperor of an alternate universe, Harmony. They realize Cable is the nexus and immediately return him before they damage the time stream.

  He returns to fighting Aentaros, disabling him. Aentaros twists his own head to commit suicide in Blockade's body, vowing to return.

  Bridge visits Shire to warn him about Blockade and is mesmerized. Shire plans to take control of the U.S. government.

  Clarity, speaking through Lea and Greg, explains that the five Undying, including Aentaros, have existed throughout history, killing, being executed, then reappearing. Cable has Blaquesmith rig a device to restrain Aentaros when he finds a new host. Irene realizes Randall Shire is the origin of the Ranshi and goes to investigates Harmony.

  The witches appear to Manuel Cire and tell him Cable is the key to victory over the Ranshi, so he and Eyla travel to the past.

  Hamid warns Oxton that Azazel guards the ancient doors he has found. He ignores him, and suddenly freezes like a statue. Berger takes a digital photo of the site.

  Cable tells Bridge where to find Blockade's body, then returns to find Blaquesmith attacked by Aentaros, who has possessed Irene.
