Bull makes his last stand. Then Holden attempts a series of last stands, each last-er than the last, but he keeps surviving. Clarissa decides that Anna's pacifism makes more sense then Cortez's planetary suicide plan, and saves the day. The gate defenses are lifted, and humanity is now free to explore what lies beyond.

Holden, Anna, and Bull team up to launch a counter counter coup. Anna uses a message of peace and cooperation, while Holden and Bull use a message of bullets and explosives. Their plan works well until Ashford deploys his invincible power armor, and then things start to look pretty dire for the good guys.

Holden is reunited with his crew on the Behemoth. They're finally safe as long as there isn't a coup. There is a coup (technically a counter-coup), led by Ashford and Cortez. Holden's crew realizes it's up to them to fix everything. Anna is unconvinced by Cortez's doomer theology, so she realizes it's up to her to fix everything. Bull survives the coup and realizes that Ashford must be stopped and it's up to him to fix everything.
