The Emperor prepared to board the Event Horizon for a trial in the Psionic Mist while ordering Tita to attack an alien Space Station before Ragnarok arrived. Aboard the Lewis and Clark, Captain Miller and Dr. Will struggled with a malfunctioning atomic clock and the crew’s worsening condition as the ship remained lost in the mist.

• Tita objected to the Emperor sending battlecruisers away from the fleet, but Phoenix returned from scouting the Psionic Mist and reported to him.
• The Emperor told Constantine and Master Hamir that the Lewis and Clark was trapped by a reality-wound and ordered the Praetorian Guard to prepare to board the Event Horizon with him.

The Lewis and Clark crew prepared to investigate the mysterious fog as their supplies dwindled, while the Emperor led The Punisher toward the Event Horizon. After the fog cleared, the crews discovered an unidentified ship and Dr. Will questioned whether its occupants were human.

• Captain Miller ordered the crew to conserve supplies, grow food, and prepare for a spacewalk to investigate the fog.

Elsewhere, the Emperor and Master Wong prepared to board the Event Horizon after detecting life signs inside, though the Emperor could not see what awaited them.

Captain Miller, Dr. Peters, and Justin explored the Event Horizon and uncovered signs of a horrifying disaster before Justin activated the hyperspace engine’s strange black portal. The portal unleashed a force that crippled the Lewis and Clark, while the Event Horizon suddenly came back to life, leaving Miller struggling to rescue Peters.

• Captain Miller and Dr. Peters found a human tooth floating inside the Event Horizon, and Dr. Will explained the cockpit’s role in emergencies and the explosives in the passage.
• Justin entered the Engine Room, crossed its rotating machinery, and saw the hyperspace engine open into a black pool that drew him in when he touched it.
• Lieutenant Cooper pulled Justin back with the safety cable, but a tremendous force erupted from the Engine Room and battered both ships, injuring their crews and damaging the Lewis and Clark.
• The Event Horizon’s systems suddenly restarted, restoring gravity, oxygen, and heat as water and blood-red liquid flooded through the ship.
• Captain Miller dragged the injured Dr. Peters from the wrecked cockpit while his damaged spacesuit leaked air.

After the Event Horizon’s impact, Captain Miller’s crew struggled to repair their ships and understand Justin’s coma, while The Punisher located the damaged Lewis and Clark and prepared to board the Event Horizon. Dr. Peters then saw a disturbing vision of her son in the infirmary, leaving the cause of the crew’s hallucinations unresolved.

• Captain Miller learned that the Lewis and Clark had only twenty minutes of oxygen remaining, that Justin was comatose, and that the communications systems were badly damaged.

The crew of the Event Horizon struggled to manage the thawing corpses, repair their ships, and face the approaching threat of a suspected Yugoslav Federation warship. After D.J. dreamed of Professor Bell repeating a Latin phrase, the Event Horizon lost power, and the crew suspected the hyperspace engine was consuming it.

• Dr. Peters planned to retrieve psychiatric medication from the Lewis and Clark while the crew discussed preserving the corpses and repairing the Event Horizon.
• Major D.J. suspected that the approaching ship was a Yugoslav Federation warship, and Captain Miller urged the crew to rest while repairs continued.
• The crew recovered Ship's Log footage in which Captain Kilpatrick introduced his crew before the gravity engine was activated.
• D.J. dreamed of Professor Bell telling him, "Liberate tutume ex inferis," then woke when the lounge lights failed and the temperature dropped.
• Dr. Will blamed a burned circuit for the power loss, but First Mate Stark said something was consuming power, and Dr. Will ran toward the bridge as Captain Miller followed.

Captain Miller and Dr. Will encountered visions of the dead while repairing the hyperspace engine, and Dr. Peters reported seeing her son. A confrontation broke out on the bridge, leaving the crew unsettled as Smith was ordered to help repair the Lewis and Clark.

• Dr. Will diagnosed a burned-out circuit and crawled into the Maintenance Tunnel to repair it while Captain Miller prepared to continue fixing the Lewis and Clark.

Captain Miller’s crew considered whether the Event Horizon had brought back a living presence from beyond the universe, while Major D.J. revised the Latin distress message to warn them to save themselves and escape from hell. Dr. Peters then rushed in with news that Justin was in the airlock.

• Captain Miller assigned Dr. Will to repair the circuitry and told Dr. Peters to distribute the remaining sedatives while caring for Justin.
• First Officer Stark told Captain Miller that the ship’s life-sign readings might mean it had brought back some form of life connected to the crew’s hallucinations.
• Captain Miller accepted that the ship might be responsible for revealing secrets and said they could not rule out unknown possibilities.
• Major D.J. replayed Captain Kilpatrick’s recording and concluded it said “save yourself” and “escape from hell,” not “save me.”
• Dr. Peters rushed onto the bridge and cried that Justin was in the airlock.

Justin entered an airlock without a spacesuit after being overcome by visions, and Captain Miller rescued him from the vacuum at great risk. With the crew facing a four-hour oxygen deadline, Captain Miller demanded answers from Dr. Will about the Event Horizon and its destination, but Dr. Will said he did not know.

• Dr. Peters reported that Justin had vanished from the medical bay, while a strange force battered the bridge hatch and Dr. Will tried to open it.

• Dr. Peters followed the vision of her son through the Engine Room and fell into the Cooling Pool, where she died and became a sacrifice to the ship.

• Miller pulled Stark through the airlock and hurried with her to the forward airlock, where Lieutenant Cooper staggered inside and begged them to remove his suit.

Captain Miller and his crew tried to escape the Lewis and Clark as a supernatural force turned the ship’s blood, fire, and dead into weapons against them. Miller pressed the remote detonator and chose to face the monster alone, but the chapter ended before the explosion’s outcome was shown.
