Billy closes Hartnell’s pub so Jazz can use it to host an impromptu meeting regarding her plan to take down Sanchez Aluminum. Jazz invites Dale, Svoboda, Lene, Bob, and Ammar. Lene offers to pay Jazz for the sabotage she perpetrated for Trond. Jazz argues that she should not get paid because she did not complete all the work. Lene says that it doesn’t matter: She did the work, and a deal is a deal.
The other members of her crew trickle in while Svoboda sets up a projector. Jazz tells the group all that has happened since she met with Trond. Jazz asks Svoboda to pull up the plans she received from Kelvin. She walks the group through her plan to break the Sanchez Aluminum smelter by cranking up the heat to melt a containment vessel: The resulting reaction will destroy the bubble. She makes a case for each to support the sabotage, telling them that the O Palácio syndicate threatens to take over Artemis entirely. They all agree to help.
The next scene contains Jazz and her father outfitting a shelter Bob procured for the mission. Her father takes much longer than he usually would to make the alterations. Jazz and her father go to Svoboda’s when their work is complete to set up their communication station.
