Vlade has been tracking a hurricane headed towards Florida for a week. He is preparing to storm proof the building when he realizes that Amelia and Idelba are both out, exposed to the weather. He asks Idelba to bring the tug to the Met, where he will store it. He also calls Amelia, who is three hours away. She will head back soon or stay the night in Canada.
On the farm floor, Vlade storm shutters the walls. Idelba arrives and helps him move the hotellos. Residents start moving to the dining hall. Idelba asks where the boys are, and Vlade realizes he doesn’t know. They don’t answer their wrist communicators when he calls them.
Vlade continues going through his checklist, including cutting the power in the building to thirteen percent. The storm grows so powerful that Vlade wonders if the Third Pulse has arrived. He is worried about the boys, but Idelba assures him that they are clever enough to stay safe.
In the morning, buildings in lower Manhattan begin falling into the canals. Idelba sails the tugboat out to take injured people to the hospitals. Within ten blocks, they have picked up over 200 people.
