The conference is interrupted by Avias Airways Flight 514, which is on a collision course with the house. Sophia, along with everyone present was saved by a wormhole-like portal. After it disappears, Sophia states that "they saved us." When Martinez asks her who saved them, she looks at him and says, "I haven't told you everything." ("I Haven't Told You Everything")

Soon after Blake Sterling puts Sophia in a holding cell Elias questioned her about the incident but she refuses to explain. She only tells him that her people mean him no harm, and that they saved him. Elias calls off the deal, of releasing the detainees, and tells her that she's going back to Mount Inostranka and they are all staying there until he gets the truth.
