3. Empathy for the Devil

Complete story — includes the ending

The adult Offspring, who now calls himself Ahdu, disables cameras in the bar just before he leaves with Molly. The two encounter JD outside, who demands an explanation. JD then puts his own gun to his head, and Molly realizes Ahdu is her son. She yells "No!", and her son surprisingly obeys, sparing JD. The bar is bombed by the drone, but all three survive. Shepherd then recruits Molly to help, who accepts despite her fury over her one-time friend ordering the drone strike. Shepherd then relieves JD of the case, and also uses his pull to revoke JD's private investigator license. Julie and Charlie complete their work on Lucy, though Charlie insists she needs more training to make moral decisions. Lucy answers some scenario questions satisfactorily for Anna and Julie, but Charlie isn't pleased. He then reveals to Julie the romantic interest he had in her, but says he now can't stand to be in her presence. Meanwhile, it appears that Ethan's memory wipe had some glitches. He continues to call Julie his mom, but has recurring visions of Molly. A despondent JD arrives home to find his daughter, Kelsey, on his doorstep. She announces that she is pregnant. After Molly agrees to Shepherd that she will shoot her Offspring, she is visited by Ahdu at night. Ahdu provides her with visions of other young Offspring he has spawned, and challenges Molly to either be with them or against them. Molly passes out, then wakes up to shoot what she thinks is Ahdu. When she goes to view the body, however, she sees that it is Shepherd.
