Plot The crew of the Knight, captained by James Holden (Steven Strait), is captured by the flagship of the Martian Navy, the Donnager. On the Donnager, Holden and his crew are interrogated. The Martian officer in charge of the interrogations accuses Naomi Nagata (Dominique Tipper) of being a terrorist member of the Outer Planets Alliance, and that she may be responsible for the destruction of the Canterbury. A ship is discovered on a course to intercept the Donnager, which its captain believes was sent to retrieve Nagata. On Ceres, Holden's broadcast has received widespread attention and has sparked protests. Josephus Miller (Thomas Jane) continues his search for Julie Mao, and contacts Anderson Dawes, an OPA member, for more information. Miller is put on riot control duty to quell the spreading dissent from the broadcast. The episode concludes with Miller's partner, Havelock, being stabbed by a group of Belters.
