The episode opens with two boys pretending to fight, while a third boy enthusiastically mimics the sound of their blows. This boy later tosses a small stone into the path of a border turret, triggering it and enjoying the ensuing chaos. Meanwhile, Trevor Goodchild faces pressure from the government to make the border more menacing, even though he prefers to keep people in Bregna through inspirational ideas. In a clandestine move, he permits Æon to infiltrate and bomb the factory producing the wall's components. Concurrently, two lovers from Bregna, Onan and Sybil, attempt to flee to Monica through a breach in the border.
