Miami 2015, Lisa Morgan is on a case with Manning. Slash and Peter Donovan arrive with a suitcase full of money and a bomb. Slash trades the money and bio weapon for drugs with Dustin. Lisa and Manning approach the dealers and Lisa orders them to freeze, but finds Manning already held at gunpoint. Lisa suddenly has flashbacks, including to when she was young playing with her sister. Manning pulls out a hidden gun and then shoots the dynamite, causing a large explosion as Lisa jumps away. While sneaking in the research facility, someone grabs Lisa and after a quick fight, he reveals himself to be Manning. They go back to her room and he tells her how he woke up at the research facility being worked on by medical people. Before leaving, Manning gives Lisa some pills to take to avoid nightmares. The next day, Manning walks into the room and reminds Lisa about the time they had sex in Puerto Rico, but Lisa tells him it was a mistake. Days later, Manning walks to his balcony and watches with binoculars as Lisa and Plummer have sex and Manning sheds a tear. Colonel Stephen Cencula, Manning and Dr. Bainbridge enter the lab and Cencula demands the Small Alien follow his orders. Cencula has a researcher patch him in to the Large Alien and video conferences with various people. Manning commands Dr. Templeton to move around and enter the enclosure of the Large Alien which quickly rips apart Dr. Templeton. Cencula holds a bidding for the blue substance and Mr. Bok wins the bid after beating Yemen Leader. Cencula and the men then celebrate the money they will soon have. Cencula asks Manning where the thumb drive is with the codes, but Manning can't find them. Manning goes into Lisa's room with a gun and she knocks him unconscious. Later, Plummer runs to Lisa and asks her to come back with him and she soon realizes he is being controlled by Manning. Cencula orders Manning to get him the codes and Burch orders Cencula to stand down. Burch is then shot by Hutch and Ty Phillip. Plummer fights to regain control of himself and grabs Lisa's rifle and shoots himself in the neck and Cencula shoots Manning in the head.
