WARNING: If you don't want to know what happened in this episode, don't read this photo recap!
On the eve of what will most certainly be a decisive battle, our favorite Killjoys trip to Leith for one last lark. Specifically, D'avin takes them to a huge expanse of RAC-owned land where they can frollick and shoot guns, just like the old days when the Hullen weren't trying to kill them. Their mini-vacation is cut short when they get an alert that the Hullen armada has breached their airspace.

Aneela's flagship, however, doesn't attack right away. Rather, it just kind of hovers in mid-space. It's the slowest game of intergalactic chicken we've ever seen.
338188
The ingenious Zeph has figured out a way to capture all of Dutch's memories — her entire life, pretty much — into a little capsule with a needle on the end of it.
338189
Dutch is so popular. She gets called away from Zeph to go to the RAC morgue, where she finds the deceased Alvis laid out on a slab. She pays him her last respects.
338190
At an unprotected site on the RAC, some of Aneela's scouts breach the defenses. Maybe that sitting duck was just a decoy.
338191
It would also appear that Aneela herself has snuck her way onto the RAC, found Johnny's room, and tricked him into thinking she's Dutch. They're practically sisters…except Aneela's Dutch's mom. Johnny gives Aneela (thinking she's Dutch) the dreadnaught used to kill Hullen. Oof.
338192
And those agents that slipped into the RAC? They zap Dutch unconscious after responding to Delle Seyah's signal.
338193
Of course, Johnny knows it was Aneela all along, and when the secret's out, they do battle. Aneela quickly overpowers Johnny, and is about to kill him with his own dreadnaught when Lucy emits a frequency that gives Aneela a whopper of a headache.
338194
Delle Seyah returns to the flagship with Dutch in tow. Once she assumes the captain's deck, she immediately deploys the armada. It's go-time.
338195
Dutch has been shackled and disposed of in a cell on Aneela's ship. She gets a front row seat to the war, but no playing privileges.
338196
The good guys' first line of defense? The sonic weapon the Killjoys knocked off the Molemeyer clan. They shoot up a stream of sound that triangulates with an already deployed satellite to create a killzone in the air capable of disrupting much of Aneela's fleet.
338197
Second line of defense is Fancy Lee, leading a team of cleansed Hullen. They start sniping off enemy ships one by one. Oh, it's soooooooo fancy.
338198
The victory is short-lived, however, as Delle Seyah, informed by Gander of the whereabouts of the sonic weapon, orders the outpost to be bombed to pieces. Pree and his squad are under heavy attack. Pree shuts down the weapon, and pauses the kill zone to relocate, leaving the RAC vulnerable.
338199
After attempting a rescue mission to save Dutch from Aneela's grasp, Johnny (now somewhat recovered) and D'avin are discovered by Delle Seyah and her men and taken into custody.
338200
Meanwhile, Aneela is taking pleasure in sparring with Dutch one-on-one. It's giving her a bit of a thrill.
338201
In the heat of the moment, Johnny cooks up a lie that's almost too good…it just might be true. It goes like this: Aneela can't kill Dutch because if she does, she'll die too. He uses the same chemistry argument that Zeph used, only flipped it. Because Aneela and Dutch are so interconnected, it kinda makes sense.
338202
Remember that little contraption Zeph gave Dutch? Well, Dutch just activated it and rammed it into Aneela's temple, and then her brain. In so doing, Dutch administers Aneela a concentrated dose of empathy. Not only that, but the jolt to her memory helps her recall Dutch's origins: being pulled from Aneela's plasma.
338203
Back on the RAC ship, Turin attempts to lure the Hullen invaders away from his crew. Once he gets them all into a room, he detonates a bomb. Except it doesn't go off, and the Hullen knock him out and take him in.
338204
Aneela, softened by the memory of Dutch (or Yelena), no longer wants to kill Dutch for the fun of it. She realizes that Dutch is the missing link in her brain, Dutch is the door that opened from the plasma, Dutch is the reason the Lady in the green is all pissed off. If Aneela can get Dutch back into the plasma, she can close the door and prevent the Lady from getting out. Hearing all this, Dutch makes a deal: both Aneela and Dutch will descend the green, and close the door forever.
338205
Cool thing happens when both Dutch and Aneela submerge themselves in the plasma is…spiders come out of it. The Lady has been angered, and she's hailed all the non-Aneela-loyal Hullen to descend on the ship.
338206
Johnny convinces Delle Seyah to call off the Hullen attack on the RAC, or else he'll blow up both Aneela and Dutch. Delle Seyah complies, and transmits a surrender message through the goo to her armies.
338207
Turin has been transferred to the Hullen ship, where Gander is about ready to convert him to one of their own. But just in the knick of time Fancy Lee shows up and dispenses with Gander to save his erstwhile friend from transformation.
338208
Delle Seyah, D'avin and Johnny are slingshotted away from harm in the inter-ship elevator, where they must endure each other's company until they figure out a way out, or until they asphyxiate from lack of oxygen.
338209
And Dutch and Aneela wake up in The Green Space, the space between memories. Khlyen's there, and he's full of tricks: like the one in which he takes the dreadnaught and makes it turn into two cool knives. That's a cool one. Together, the three set off to hunt down the Lady, and put an end to this madness.
