A powerful Vega senator takes the city's leaders and food supply hostage with one demand: announce the secret identity of the Chosen One to the public, or suffer the consequences. Michael is called to a family meeting of archangels... including Gabriel. Claire goes against the Vega Senate.

Alex begins his training with Michael, but soon after has a vision that causes him to go rogue during an Archangel Corps mission. Elsewhere, Claire goes out on a limb to protect Riesen, however she can't stop his long-held secrets from coming back to haunt him; and David makes a move to secure his power.
