Complete story — includes the ending
Alex and Naomi inform Holden of the explosion and an impending earthquake; it will be followed by a shock wave, and then a tsunami that will destroy the settlement and flood the continent. Once privy to this knowledge, the settlers finally consent to evacuate Ilus; the Belters only do so after Holden agrees to vouch for their claim on the planet to the UN and Avasarala, which antagonizes Murtry. The explosion prompts Ilus' defenses to shut down the fusion reactors on orbiting ships; the evacuation shuttle from the Israel gets incinerated mid-descent. Unable to leave the planet, the settlers take shelter in the nearby alien structure; some are killed by the shock wave during the evacuation; the surrounding area gets flooded. On Mars, Bobbie succeeds in her new job for the gang. During a heist, she risks her life to complete the mission, impressing Esai. UNN officers visit Medina and criticize Drummer for mishandling the issue of the Sojourner and Marco Inaros. Drummer and Ashford receive evidence that Inaros is involved with someone on Mars and that he is currently on the Belter ship Pizzouza.
