Summary:
        On the way to the brig, Cray takes down the guards and proceeds to take over the ship. Soon, he's in command with a pump-action shotgun with the stock wired to his arm and the business end wired to the Captain's head. He warns Team 7 about the nuke. Cash comes up with the plan of combining their power to create a shield. It works and they survive the impact. In Russia, Rostov wakes up knowing that something "terrible and magnificent" has happened.
        Team 7 walks out of the blasted desert while a Marine Recon team board the ship to take Cray. When the choppers land to pick up Team 7, all but Lynch refuse to board. Cray knowing that the team survived, surrenders and is beaten and thrown in the brig. Craven offers to get him out but he refuses (by smashing his fist through the video-phone's screen).
        Nicaragua, six months later, Team 7 is getting restless and tired of hiding from Craven. They start thinking about heading back to get some answers.
