Dimitri's mysterious craft takes him to a city at the bottom of the Pacific, which he decides to call Atlantis. After weeks of exploring, he finds bioluminescent sea creatures in the city.

Haunted by how alone he feels, he resolves to go home to see Leon again.

Because Charlotte is bedridden after giving birth, Gemma and Monty go to a Red Line station to see how things are after the referendum. The station is in chaos, with no system of control after The Mayor disappeared. Charlotte tells Gemma that she has to take control of the situation.

Someone tries to steal Gemma's bag. Louisa gets the bag back, but Gemma's crystal ball is missing. Louisa offers to help her, and asks is Gemma can help her find a weird-looking guy.

To Wonderland
Rather than making it to the Someday Cafe, Nica begins giving her monologue on Red Line train cars. She eventually makes her way to Wonderland. She bribes the ride operator for the Whirlodon to let her sit in the seat that she had been in when Leon died, and rides dozens more times. On the last ride of the night, a stranger sits next to her and asks if he knows her from somewhere. Nica ignores him and throws Dimitri's puzzle box off the roller coaster.
