At the high school reawakening, organizers announce all awakening stones were collected for maintenance, canceling Andy’s chance to respec. Students realize Boden’s family supplies the stones and suspect he engineered the delay; Mr. Hope defends the repair as legitimate while Jones Co. hauls the devices away. Ms. Barrios, who gave Andy a respec scroll, left on an urgent mission and won’t return for a month, removing his immediate ally. Naomi taunts Andy and demands the scroll, offering only second-hand gear. The crowd turns violent, shouting “Let’s kill him!” as the episode ends with an assault about to start.
