"Last week teased an Elmira prison break, but this week actually follows through, with Annabeth helping lead the gang to the perfect extraction point: the wall Sam is about to bust through. Yep, only moments after learning that she's capable of resurrection, Marie finds out her sister is also a supe. As Annabeth explains at the boarded-up library where they all hide out, she's a precog, occasionally catching glimpses of the future with visions and vague impulses."
"If it wasn't clear before, Cipher is obsessed with pushing Marie's powers to their full potential, and he wanted this to happen all along. It's a little pathetic that he let the group get away, though, if he knew they were attempting a prison break. That reaction upon learning about their escape is genuine: He snaps, angrily beating his own powerless "father." It's a more vulnerable, less controlled version of Cipher than we usually see."
Gen V spends increasing time off campus as the characters execute an Elmira prison break orchestrated by Annabeth, who reveals herself as a precog. Marie discovers her ability to resurrect and simultaneously learns her sister is a supe. Cipher intensifies efforts to push Marie's powers to full potential, revealing both obsession and cracks in control when the group escapes. Cipher intrudes into Polarity's mind to locate the gang, but Polarity momentarily resists and blasts him, signaling waning dominance. Cipher sends Vikor to capture the youths, resulting in confrontations that showcase Marie's growing power and the show's balancing of escalating stakes.
