In the past, Nura and Natasja walk through the village together until it is time for them to separate and surveil different areas. After Natasja leaves, two soldiers begin following Nura. Although she has two knives, she knows that it would be difficult to reach for them in the event of an attack. They begin jeering at her, and one grabs her. He wants to take her into an apartment building where he claims to have food. She angrily tells him that this is no way for a soldier to treat a woman. She appeals to the other soldier, who is older: She asks him if this is how he would have his daughter treated. Her ploy works, and the soldiers move on.

In the present, Hana arrives at Zaim’s property. He has a small trailer, and she approaches it soundlessly. There is an overpowering stench of death in the air—a scent she remembers from the war. Inside the trailer, Zaim sits in a chair with a length of cord wrapped around his neck. He is clearly dead and has likely been dead for several days at least. Hana finds an array of therapy files and guesses that he was using them to blackmail Amina’s therapist’s patients. However, Amina’s file is not among them.

In the past timeline, Nura sees a burned mosque and enters it to have a location from which to observe the town. The inside has been desecrated with feces and urine, and Nura feels a pang in her heart. Looking around, she spies what must be a barracks. She is happy to have a location: This piece of information will be useful to her unit. A vehicle approaches the barracks, and she sees the man who killed her mother: Colonel Zorić.

In the present, Hana considers telling Claypool about Zaim, but she thinks better of it. Instead, she calls in an anonymous tip to 911 from a payphone in St. Paul.

In the past timeline, Nura meets back up with Natasja, and they mark their findings on a map of the village. Natasja is pleased that Nura has determined the location of the barracks. The two are sure that their unit will be able to avenge Srebrenica’s victims.

In the present, Hana disposes of her clothing and shoes and returns home. She is sure that someone evil is responsible for Amina’s death and fears that they are searching for her, too. She vows to keep herself and Dylan safe.

In the past timeline, Nura and Natasja are discovered as they exit the village. Two soldiers drive up in a truck too quickly for the women to escape, and a fight ensues when the soldiers attempt to search them while grinning lewdly. Natasja runs, and Nura remains to fight. More soldiers arrive in more trucks. Although she is able to stab one of the soldiers, they ultimately overpower her. As she lies on the ground with her arms zip-tied behind her back, she watches the soldiers kill Adem and Enes, who had been hiding nearby and shooting at the Serbian convoy.

In the present, Hana prepares breakfast for Dylan, and the two talk. Dylan misses Amina and tells Hana that one of the other boys in foster care called him an “orphan.” Hana explains that when people are hurt, they often lash out at those around them. She cautions him not to take insults to heart. As they hug, Claypool drives up to the farmhouse.

In the past, Nura is brutally beaten and then taken to a cell in the Serbian barracks. There, she meets a terrified, traumatized girl named Amina who recounts her sister’s death and her own mistreatment at the hands of Serbian soldiers. Nura has a hidden knife, and she asks Amina to use it to cut her zip ties, but soldiers interrupt. One of them is Luka, the man who shot Danis. He tells her that Colonel Zorić wants to interrogate her himself because she is a spy. Luka promises to return and torture her to death.

In the present timeline, Claypool reveals that he knows Hana called 911 to report Zaim’s death. He is not pleased that she continues to interfere with his investigation. He notes the presence of one footprint at the crime scene: a women’s running shoe in a size six. Hana calmly tells him that he will not find the shoe in her house but that he is welcome to search for it. He tells her that he has confirmation that Zaim is actually a wanted Serbian war criminal named Bosko Ivanović who has been living under the name of a man from Srebrenica, and Hana fumes silently. The detective then tells her that Zaim had all of Amina’s therapist’s files except for Amina’s. He accuses her of stealing it, and she truthfully tells him that she does not have it. He tells her that Zaim’s burner phone had called only two numbers: another burner and the United Nations (UN) Mission of Serbia. Hana is genuinely confused by this piece of information since she has no idea why Zaim would have anything to do with a diplomatic organization.

In the past, Nura asks Amina to finish cutting her loose once the soldiers leave. Amina is terrified and explains that there is nothing they can do but wait for the soldiers to return to torture them again. She calls the soldier who “visits” her at night “Iblis,” or the devil. Patiently, Nura explains to her that if they are both brave, they might survive. She gives her Danis’s blue marble, which she has carried with her since the day her family was murdered. She explains that it has been her “amulet” and that it will keep Amina safe. Amina then cuts her loose and gives her the knife. Silently, Nura waits for her opportunity to kill Luka and Zorić.

In the present, Hana explains to Dylan that they will be attending Amina’s funeral. He is teary-eyed but tells her that he would like to go so that he can say goodbye. While he is getting ready, Hana googles Bosko Ivanović. She finds little information that is of use to her. Then, she googles the UN Mission of Serbia. Again, she finds nothing that answers her questions. She continues to search the UN mission’s pages, and eventually, she is stunned to see a face that she knows very well and has not seen in many years.
