On Monday, Kate calls Locke, who is at the FIRM, and she asks him to take care of paperwork he promised to do. She again calls Locke, but then refuses to trap him and Dr. Robertson causes her to collapse using the hand held device. Dr. Robertson promises Kate that if she does what she is told, Locke won't be hurt. Locke lands in Airwolf and Dr. Robertson notices the security lock is on in Airwolf and orders Locke to turn it off. The Attendant attacks Locke, who punches him, and Dr. Robertson uses her hand held device against Locke. Locke and Kate are put in a room together and he gets upset with her for betraying him.

Leader tells Locke that he is the amalgamation of various leaders like Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr. and Gandhi, among others and Locke realizes that Leader is only a machine. Leader starts to use the mind control device to attack Locke and as Kate tries to escape, Leader kills her by making her implant explode.
