At the Centre, Denton tells the Spectrum officers that Chapman is the only possible culprit behind the theft and killing because she was the sole person to enter the compound that morning. The K14 is the most deadly virus ever developed and would endanger millions of lives if its phial were broken. Returning to Cloudbase, Scarlet and Blue are informed that the suspect has been sighted in New York.

Scarlet and Blue arrive and find a broken phial on the dashboard.

The officers are transferred to an isolation capsule and flown back to Cloudbase pending infection tests. However, Denton's analysis on the phial checks negative for K14 and Colonel White realises that Spectrum has been tricked.

Hours later, reports of sightings of Chapman have reached Cloudbase from all over North America. Hearing that she has been spotted in Los Angeles, Scarlet deduces from the name that LA is the threatened "place of the angels".

However, a floor vent collapses, unbalancing the Mysteron agent and causing her to topple over the wall. As Chapman screams to her death, Scarlet lunges for the phial, which settles on a ledge just beyond his grasp. Gently manoeuvring his arm, the captain seizes the virus before it rolls over the side. Colonel White frantically radios Scarlet but is told that the place of the angels is safe.
