Plot
Taking place weeks before they rescue their friends from the Mercenary Team, Carolina and Epsilon infiltrate an abandoned F.A.C. Munitions Facility and knock out the security guard monitoring the video feeds. Epsilon proceeds to hack into the enemy network and steal several classified files. However, after activating the compound's motion sensors, they are interrupted by the arrival of three more security guards, and Carolina proceeds to take cover.

As the guards enter the room, Epsilon, having improved his capabilities as an A.I., begins a hyper-fast analysis of the enemy combatants and calculates the various scenarios in which Carolina can best the three soldiers. To assist him, Epsilon utilizes the memories of the past Freelancer A.I. fragments: Delta, Theta, Omega, Gamma, Sigma, Eta, and Iota. With their help, Epsilon is able to sabotage the soldiers' weapons to lower their accuracy, knock aside a floor panel underneath one guard who recently had knee surgery, and use the breached door as a makeshift shield. During the analysis, the Delta portion of Epsilon's personality worries about the possibility of Carolina being injured, but Epsilon dismisses him and states that he should have faith in Carolina. After Epsilon completes his analysis, Carolina receives it and successfully overpowers the three guards, but is mildly injured in the process. She then steals one of the guard's helmets and makes her escape.

Outside the facility, Carolina and Epsilon analyze the stolen files and uncover data about prototype weapons. Carolina wonders how Control is able to fund such research. They then find an audio log detailing Locus and Felix's plot to cause a civil war on Chorus. Felix reveals that the Blood Gulch Crew is becoming more trouble than they anticipated and that they may start a rescue mission in the near future. Control, amused by Felix's inquisitiveness, orders them to kill the Reds and Blues if they reunite. Epsilon, horrified, immediately demands that he and Carolina head off to rescue their friends, in which Carolina agrees. Epsilon then states that they need to pick up one last item if they want to reach them in time, and reveals data on the prototype teleportation grenades.

 * Like The Federal Army of Chorus, this episode shows what happened to Carolina and Epsilon after Season 11.
