Chapter 01: For Those of You Just Joining Us
As the season begins, Doc arrives in Valhalla after receiving a distress signal. After arriving, he is reunited with Simmons where he discovers that Donut, who was shot last season, is now dead. Doc tells Simmons that he can't help Donut, while Simmons reveals that he already knew this and only called Doc because he was forced to call for a medical officer. As Doc turns around, he is held at gunpoint by Washington and The Meta. At Sandtrap, Grif has been burying the dead soldiers (or rather, letting the wind do it for him while he takes credit) they killed while Epsilon Church is worshipped by the aliens. Preparing to give a speech for the fallen soldiers, Church sees a mysterious black figure off in the distance and follows, with Tucker, Sarge, and Grif not far behind while Caboose tries to entertain the restless aliens. Tucker reveals that Epsilon is having a memory surge and Epsilon reveals that he had a vision of Valhalla.

Chapter 02: Drink Your Ovaltine
Sarge and Grif are talking in the middle of Sandtrap, and meanwhile at Valhalla, Simmons was forced to call a medic. Unfortunately Doc from the Blood Gulch Chronicles was the closest medic around. So both Simmons and Doc were being held hostage by the Meta and Agent Washington who have teamed up. The Meta is having trouble with its stolen Freelancer equipment since the AI's were destroyed by the EMP. Washington wants Doc to check the Meta's vitals. Back at Sandtrap, Sarge decides to check up on Simmons. Simmons is being held at gunpoint by Agent Washington who is forcing Simmons to play it cool, and not tell Sarge what is actually going on.

The conversation was normal, and didn't give away any obvious hints as to what was going on. Simmons felt that there was no way that Sarge would be able to help and if he came he'd be walking right into a trap. Sarge on the other hand figures out exactly what's going on by jumping to some insane illogical conclusions, yet oddly add up.

Chapter 03: Upon Further Review
It starts with Washington asking Doc about the Meta whom we learn is fine physically. Then Simmons and Doc determine they can use Docs Medical Unit in an overcharged burst to short circut the Meta. After that Wash and the Meta find Sarge and Wash goes to confront him while the Meta watches Simons and Doc. It then goes to Tucker looking for the Reds and Epsilon-Church. Caboose comes with the Aliens who are getting restless. Then, as Wash confronts Sarge and takes his weapons, Grif bursts through a wall n a warthog. Grif runs over Wash who grabs on to the warthog, all the while shooting at Grif. Wash is thrown off the warthog when Grif suddenly stops. Wash attempts to pump Sarge's shotgun during the fall, which Sarge takes back. Sarge gets on the Warthog and shoots the fusion coils next to Washington while trying to say "Agent Wash, you just got Sarge'd!", however the explosion cuts off the "Sarge'd!" part, much to his dismay. It goes back to Simmons and Doc planning to use Doc's scanner as an improvised weapon, and Doc is worried about making the Meta even angrier. The Meta sees smoke from the explosion, and turns to deal with Simmons and Doc. Simmons runs from the Meta and the episode ends with Doc charging the Medical Unit, while Simmons cries, "Improvise!".

Chapter 04: Recovering One
Epsilon-Church has just arrived in the Canyon. Meanwhile, Doc manages to hit The Meta with an overcharged burst from his scanner. As Simmons predicted, the Meta's systems were disrupted and his Temporal Vortex unit was reversed, making him slower than everyone else, slowing him down in a punch to Doc. Doc stops in place, and he feels proud of himself. Simmons tries to explain that the Meta's punch still has just as much force, so (much to Doc's misbelief) when the punch does hit, Doc hits the wall hard. The Meta is slowly recovering and retrieving his Brute Shot, while Simmons tries to free Doc from the Wall. Sarge calls to Simmons to get in the car, and Simmons decides to ditch Doc and flee with Grif and Sarge, despite Doc's frantic pleas. The Meta manages to shoot Doc and Simmons right as Simmons is leaving, and he makes a frantic dive for the Warthog. He grabs the gun, but cant get into the seat, because Grif and Sarge dont slow down. The Meta, now back up to speed, takes the Man Cannon and lands on the Warthog's front, crushing it and sending the Reds flying. Grif and Sarge regain their balance while arguing "That wasn't driving! That was flying and burning!!" and make a last stand against the Meta (Simmons is still dazed from the crash).

Epsilon-Church shows up out of nowhere and comments on how badly their jeep got destroyed. The Meta seems attracted to Epsilon-Church's shiny body and follows it like a cat and a toy. Church leads it to the Blue base, while he starts to recognize it as the place from his memory flash.

The Red's escape through the hole made by the Warthog in the previous episode, which is shown to connect to the Halo 3 map, Isolation. They debate on how to seal the hole seeing as they have no grenades. Conviently, Episilon-Church shows up, complaining about the Meta's erratic behavior. Grif and Sarge get the idea to use Church's "Lazer Face" to seal the door, and begin to try to anger him. Simmons tries to help, but fails. The Meta and Washington are closing in on them. Church sees Washington and is suddenly full of rage, and fires his lazer face immediately. Immediately after, Church regrets his actions, realising he needs to save Tex's body. He seems to be tired and passes out.

Washington and The Meta lament the Red's (and Church's) escape. Washington comments that they need a lead, and he knows where he can find one. Doc is then heard, crying help.

Sarge and Simmons break down some key demographic information about the RvB audience.

Past Season References

 * In Chapter 4, the writing in the wall says "Pvt. Jimmy was here." along with a skull. Pvt. Jimmy was a Blue stationed with Alpha Church on Sidewinder. Tex snuck up on him, tore out his skull, then beat him to death with it.
 * Chapter 4's title make reference to Wash's callsign, Recovery One.
 * In Chapter 3, during the car scene, the Warthog has 6 pedals. This is a reference to a Season 1 joke, where Caboose asks "Why are there six pedals if there are only four directions?"

Halo References

 * Sarge's remark that "these [pistols] aren't quite effective as they used to be" is a reference to the decreasing pistol strength across the Halo games due to balance issues.
 * In Chapter 1 when Tucker says that the aliens worship all the ancient technology and the people who made it, this is a reference to the Forerunners of Halo,who created the Seven Halo Rings,The Shield Worlds,the Monitors and the Temple in the desert.
