When all of the Chi-Town Trib Force were in the Educational Arena meeting and the Horsemen spitting out deadly vapor came. After most of the people died they found a GC truck that they are using to make a video to help get people to come to Christ. They found after taking the truck to the Schoolhouse against Vicki's permission; an unconscious GC Morale Monitor named Marjorie. She was the Valedictorian at Judd's graduation. As they are talking to Marjorie trying to reason with her to not rat on her. Janie comes to tell Marjorie that the people of the schoolhouse love her because God loved them 1st. She tries her best to get Marjorie to come to Christ. Judd and Lionel are still in Israel and figured out that all of the dead bodies from the smoke and sulfur were going to be burned up. Lionel goes to visit the 2 witnesses at the wailing wall and they preach to him and give him a message. Judd talked to Nada's father and he said he apologized for blaming him for Nada's death. He tries to ask Judd for advice before Kasim tries to kill the Antichrist forgetting that he is going to die anyways. Vicki helps Janie and Marjorie pray and come to Jesus. She prayed and Janie became a Christian but Marjorie was lying. They called a meeting of the true believers and they were informing them that Marjorie is an imposter. They finally let her go and they had to become on watch for anything sus going on. The Chi-Town force are suspecting that the GC Chopper is above them trying to get them and Charlie draws up a plan to get them out of there. Mr. Stein was trying to preach to those Orthodox Jews who haven't come to Jesus and they tried to leave as GC Peacekeeping police invade on their meeting, but God protected them by sending angels which are armed with weapons. Lionel and Sam goes to the Teddy Kollek stadium and watch the GCDOE leader speak and back in Chicago they are going to infiltrate the system and stream the video from the stadium but, they can't find the video and then, they decided to go live. They are live and Vicki COMPLETELY starts to wing it. She changed her entire script to talk to them about Jesus Christ. Then after all was said and done, at the GC Carl was told that the situation can never happen again but, he wanted to. Vicki was praying and her spirit was troubled and she knew what to do. She told everyone that they had to evacuate the schoolhouse and very little had to leave. They were told to go home and spread their newfound faiths abroad. Lenore told them that she appreciated them and took Tolan and they departed from the schoolhouse building. At the 2nd meeting they went on again and Vicki sugarcoated nothing. As she was talking the GC were coming and pulling up their driveway and was determined to finish even if she was caught by them.
