After a tragic attack by the Monroe militia seeking her father, Ben Matheson, Charlie, Aaron and Maggie start their journey to Chicago in search of her uncle Miles who they hope will help rescue her asthmatic brother Danny, who's been taken by Captain Neville from General Monroe's militia. Along the way they meet Nate, someone who helps them out of trouble and is found out to be a soldier of the militia. Upon reaching Chicago they find that The Grand has been converted to a tavern owned by Miles. Following an altercation with the militia the group sets off to find Danny. Meanwhile, Danny escapes and meets Grace who is later shown using a pendant similar to Ben's to power a computer and communicate with an unknown party.
