Harriet Bree cuts one sword loose from Floating Array, and the Ace-Ops retreat with it. Ironwood starts to order reinforcements, but Watts stops him. Inside, Nora uses her Semblance to absorb power from the electrified door and break it, knocking her out and scarring her. Penny seals the other four in the control room to fight the Ace-Ops herself, and they briefly subdue her. The five of them are confronted by the Ace Operatives, who want Penny to surrender the Relic of Creation to Ironwood for safekeeping. Pietro says that Penny will mimic the Atlas terminal to launch Amity Communications Tower, and that she should remain on it despite her misgivings about abandoning Mantle. Blake responds that others can become a part of oneself, and Nora wonders who she is without Ren, to which Weiss responds she should something do only she can do. Nora, trying to reassure Blake, lets slip her misgivings about Lie Ren. Penny allows herself to be controlled remotely by Pietro, who enters the necessary commands, while Blake worries about the split between Ruby and Yang Xiao Long. May trips an employee carrying coffee, giving Ruby the chance to rush the others past as Penny suggested. The compound goes into lockdown, blocking the infiltrators' exits, but May points out a hangar. Watts notices the apparent login by Pietro. James Ironwood has ordered Arthur Watts to hack into Penny. May objects that she cannot get them through, but Penny explains that Ruby's Semblance should be able to carry all of them. They use May's Semblance of invisibility and Penny's directions to reach Central Command, where Penny uses Pietro Polendina's credentials to enter. Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, Penny Polendina, Nora Valkyrie, and May Marigold arrive in the Atlesian Command Center.
