Episode Title:
Prelude to Apocalypse.
Episode Description:
Victor is informed of Wolf's condition, and that a virus is circulating through the XAT. Al and Brad inspect the new Paladin machines and Brad encounters his old squad member, Clavier. A mysterious outbreak of Amalgams has the Paladin-equipped XAT officers dispatched to a public swimming pool. Later, infected XAT personnel turn into Amalgams and begin to take over XAT headquarters, cutting off communications with the outside world, while Al and Brad free Hermann and Amanda. Clavier and Senger head back to headquarters and are ambushed by Amalgams when they arrive, but Blue emerges and attacks the Amalgams. The surviving XAT operatives are devastated when Wolf reveals that he was instrumental in the infection of XAT staff and the Amalgam outbreak in the city. Beatrice confronts Joseph and tells him that even the Bundeswehr wouldn't be able to defeat Amalgams. Mei-Fong reports back to Victor that most of XAT are dead, forcing Victor to disband the organization while the "Three Knights" are assembled.
