I'm watching at my own location away from the van. I cringe as I see all the ants come out of the sink. I see Hank pull up to the gate. Paxton and his partner try to intercept him while Luis and Hope get in. Dave temporarily steals the cop car. I see Darren talking to Hope before collecting Hank and asking after me. I slowly move invisibly to position sensing the worst. Scott is doing his plan. Dave and Kurt accidentally give away their location, jeopardizing the whole thing. Just as everything is about to go sideways, I freeze time (except for Dave and Kurt allowing them to escape.) I kill Mitchell and his Hydra associates, put Darren in custody, and get everyone out of here safely. No one even notices as I unfreeze everything. Hank and I escape in a tank as the building blows up with Darren inside. I make sure he's dead before making it appear as though Stym Tech were never here.

"Well, boys. I'm kinda glad we had a worst-case scenario. See you all later."
