Behind every bologna bomb is a kid who wasn’t picked first for dodgeball.
Its fine because somehow, each generation, those kids seem to find a reason to keep living on.
Sometimes they grow up to recapScorpioneach week.

Sometimes they become mathematical geniuses or behavioralists, and sometimes the future is unknown.
The Backstory
The episode opens back at the hospital with Megan.
Shes weak, but the doctor says that most of the mucus has been sucked from her lungs.
Its a painfully grotesque reminder at how awful MS. is.
Walter wants Megans intubation tube replaced when her lungs start to fill again.
You might be wondering why shes being intubated to begin with after she demanded not to be last week.
Walter got a court order and made the call himself.
Sylvester is taking him to task, but Walter isnt budging at all.
He promises that Megan will get better now that hes in charge.
Back at the garage, Ray reallyistraining Ralph to be a better athlete by going through physical training.
He does his best but gets toppled by a swinging punching bag.
Paige helps him up and admits that she wasnt always picked first, either.
The Mission
But like we said, the big challenge this week is not gym class.
This weeks criminal is Jonas Madaky, an ambassador who travels with diplomatic immunity.
He sounds super harmless until you find out that he moonlights as a weapons trader who equips child soldiers.
The Execution
Katherine Cooper finds out that the team has been pegged to assassinate Madaky.
Gleason, suddenly way more chatty, starts briefing the team.
Walter jumps into action, rationalizing that hes only responsible for opening the door…not the murder.
Happy and Toby run to the roof and shut down the elevator with Madaky in it.
Madakys guard turns the gun on Gleason and shoots him in the stomach twice.
Goodbye Englands lethal rose.
Madaky has his bodyguard throw Gleason in the incinerator chute, never to be seen again.
And thats when he pulls Ray in, who offers up a couple Band-Aids.
Well see what that means.
It sounds like a bunch of bologna, but its not.
Its lunch meat humor!
As Happy finishes up the bologna bomb (lets just call it that because how funny does that sound?
No character mix up here.
As that happens, Paige accesses Madakys room and is doing his makeup.
Agent Cromwell gives up on the team.
As Madakys team is leaving, Scorpion rushes to catch Madaky.
A series of traps stun members of Madakys team, but ultimately Madaky escapes into his limo.
When the privacy window rolls down, Gleason is on the other side.
Even Madaky is shocked, but Gleason simply says, Im a ghost.
Paige made wonderful fake blood for Gleasons death out of corn syrup and food coloring when she excused herself.
When Madaky asks who they are, Toby says, Were the ones you picked last in gym class.
And you know how that door they needed to hack was unhackable?
The team had discovered that Olivia Cromwell was working with Madaky and changed the plan then and there.
Cromwell pulls her gun and places it against Katherine Coopers back.
Katherine Cooper grabs the gun and puts it to her chest and pulls the trigger.
The chamber is empty.
She unloaded it herself because she figured out that Cromwell was dirty.
YOU GUYS, RAY MARRIED MEGAN AND SYLVESTER.
The wedding overrules Walters court order and allows Megan to not be intubated anymore.
