Lightning tugs on Dan's shirt as he remembers the scent of the Core Cell, so the team goes to search for the Core Cell until Kravitz stops them so they can do more tests, the AO chooses to flee and get chased by AAAnimus grunts as they go through several rooms in the HQ searching for the Core Cell. The scent of the Core Cell seems to be close according to Phaedrus, Dan uses the key card but it doesn't work on the door, as it seems AAAnimus locked them out so they couldn't go into this top-secret room. Meanwhile, the scientists tell Philomena that their research has revealed little information on the Core Cell, as it seems to be “sleeping” and it needs to wake up so its power can be drawn.
