She tells him that he and the team have to keep working.

Democracy needs protecting, even if she cant be saved.

At the same time, Owen and Alex are having a tete-a-tete in their surveillance van.

But when Fletcher calls and tells Alex to meet the group at the Greypool headquarters, she agrees.

Despite her moral qualms with it, she starts with Matthew Keyes and it works.

Shelby and Ryan cant exactly leave the Farm.

When they get a little stir-crazy, they decide to talk about their feelings.

(But is that true?)

She thinks she can convince him to help her get some information on Nimahs whereabouts.

When she reveals this to Clay though, he and Shelby are very suspicious.

Everyones moral compass is starting to waver…

After assassinating Matthew Keyes career, Alex is feeling really guilty.

She seems to be the only one who recognizes the potential downfall of their character.

Owen tells her that a compromise in the short term leads good to prevail in the long term.

Ryan, who finds Alex at the office as this is all unfolding, wants to stop the attack.

Alex has to knock him out to protect the collaborators mission.

Afterward, back at the Farm, hes mad at Alex and Owen.

Ryan leaves, furious.

I dont know why, but Im surprised that he doesnt get it.

Raina somehow figures out that they are using her and tips off Felix.

This point is very much lost on Shelby.
