Sophia finds a picture of Thomas and cries. She feels bad about him dying, but not the forty or so of their people that Thomas killed in Inostranka, nor the 120 or so other people that got killed along with Thomas.

Meeting time! Sophia tells a small number of named characters (and a couple of mooks) that their planet is dying, that Earth is their only hope, and that she can no longer consider this population benevolent. Because we killed a bunch of them after they killed a bunch of us, I guess. So that means, according to Sophia, "The oath no longer applies." Their star has started to implode, and two billion lives are at stake. Depending on what kind of weather they like, we could probably fit them in somewhere. Most of Siberia's not being used. Simon seemed to like the ocean; maybe we could set them up in the Pacific Ocean. I'm just saying, we've got a lot of space. And if they bring some of their advanced alien technology, we could cut some sort of deal. Do they have something that helps with food generation? That would probably help a lot.

In France, Henri shows Sean on a map where Dempsey's dig is. But Dempsey's staying at a gated estate in Morez. And Henri has a plan of attack already! He recommends attacking from the treeline just before first light. Henri's pretty helpful. He's probably just the guy you want on your side.

Sean hangs out in the garage playing on his laptop. I think he's looking at Google Maps, possibly to verify Henri's attack plan. Vicky claims she only needs two hours of sleep and asks what Sean's plan is. He figures he'll just hand Dempsey over to the French police (gendarmes, I believe they're called), but Vicky points out Sean's complete lack of proof. She thinks Dempsey will need to die. Sean sighs and turns off the ridiculous virus that would expose her son. He tells her that she's gotten him this far and has a family, but he has nothing. So Vicky's free. Hooray! Not that I care about Vicky too much, but I'm just glad that stupid "viral threat" angle has been dropped because every time it came up I wanted to go on for thousands of words about how dumb it was.
