    [h="2"]Recap[/h]
    Kalani's journal confession comes to a close. Michael, Tanya, Datu, Pegs, and Kelly put the pieces together from all they learn about Kalani's part in everything about the War. The Army starts processing the new arrivals at Fort Irwin and Tanya's bite is exposed. Saul and Victor learn more about Kalani's activities in CJ's building. They also fill CJ in on what they know about The Man in the Pinstripes Suit and the "special" types. CJ gets Saul and Victor to agree to investigate Ground Zero for her and the two men "find crack in Inglewood" with her supplies and planning. When the air supplies unexpectedly run low, they learn something very interesting about Saul and CJ takes them in long term.
    [h="2"]Part 1[/h]
    The episode starts with Saul and Victor continuing to get information about Kalani from CJ. Their story merges with Michael and company's continued reading of Kalani's journal. In a combination of Kalani narrating and clips from previous episodes, the story continues after Kalani is rescued from the Arena and brought back to the tower. Kalani gives his brutally honest opinion of the Tower and the people in it saying they were led by "machismo army guys who couldn't tell their asses from a hole in the ground."

    The story goes into detail on the 4th of July party that the Tower residents throw. Kalani fills in the story of what else happened that night outside the party that leads to the War. Kalani discovers Bill hiding all of the supplies and weapons/ammo that he stole. Kalani uses this information to blackmail Bill into giving up a rifle. Kalani then uses the radio (that Kelly taught him to use) to contact Scratch and the Mallers. He gives them information about the residents (esp. Michael, Angel, Saul, and Burt), about the party, and the lack of ammunition. Scratch gives him the order to cause confusion by firing his rifle at the ground after they get there and signal him. Kalani pleads with Scratch to know about his daughter, Hannah, but she doesn't talk anymore.

    After a brief recap of the War and it's aftermath, Kalani talks about how he began to like the Tower residents and work with them. He doesn't contact the Mallers again and thinks that things are looking up and he might have a chance to get Hannah back. But then Pippen appears on the scene and Kalani knows that the Mallers won't let up. Kalani works out a plan to protect himself. He creates alibis in Datu in the Motorpool and Michael in the Tower and then creates a diversion by setting off the alarm in Burt's room. In the ensuing chaos, Kalani sneaks into the guard room where Hope and Pippen are. Using a suppressed pistol, Kalani executes Pippen (scaring the hell out of Hope) and cleans up the evidence leaving "no shell casings, no fingerprints" behind. Since he was going to LAX to work on the helicopter, Kalani figured he had time to "let things blow over at the Tower". Kalani then explains that this journal was his way of making sure that someone knows why he did what he did. And then it ends mid-sentence leaving Micheal, Tanya, and the rest wondering what else he had to say....

    Part 2 opens with Michael and company reacting to Kalani's journal confession. Michael figures out that the Mallers killed Hannah (Kalani's daughter) which was the reason Kalani crashed his helicopter into the tanker in Chapter 24 - The Harder They Fall. Datu and Kelly point out that Kalani is the main cause for many bad things that happened to them and ultimately the lose of the Tower.

    PVT. Carl Thomas comes to the barracks to tell everyone that they have to get a medical evaluation at Weed Medical by the staff. Tanya freaks out and declares that she "ain't going!" Thomas calls for backup and they grab Tanya, who is protesting and struggling a lot. She is taken to Weed.

    CJ lets Saul and Victor watch the security camera footage of the day her building was attacked. Saul agrees that Kalani's activities were strange. CJ states that she's no longer worried about the Mallers but is still very concerned about "the one in the suit." Saul gives CJ all the info that he has about Pinstripes including tattoos and speculation that he was wearing a bulletproof vest to survive getting shot. Saul goes on to describe the various kinds of zombies he knows about: fast ones, jumpers, big ones, smart ones, skinny little ones, strong ones, weak ones, and that "stupid f'n tattooed one". Victor says he doesn't know anything about other zombies kinds done South at the Colony. CJ makes notes and ponders the information before making the pair of men an offer. She says that she will give them supplies and shelter if they will investigate Ground Zero for her. She says that several of her people reported feeling sick there. Victor confirms it. Cj speculates that the reason there are so many "special" zombies around the LA area may be because of Ground Zero. Saul and Victor counter offer to get an indefinite stay at Dunbar Apartments. The trio eventually comes to an agreement where Saul and Victor head to Ground Zero in return for moving into CJs building.

    Saul and Victor head out the next morning with CJ's provided scuba tanks, ammo, and supplies. CJ drops them outside the Ground Zero area, helps them get set up with the scuba gear, and sends them into the area in a vehicle. She also gives them a digital camera and tells them to get her some information about the area. The part ends with Saul and Victor driving on into Inglewood.
