Rain, the rogue Agent. He sends Bo and Norman on a mission—Norman’s test. Meanwhile, Jack infiltrates a group of former Mercenary soldiers. In a projector-lit room, a masked man named Ren pitches a new agency to rival Marc’s. Jack splits, sneaking into a surveillance room, where Andrea Cynth confronts him. She takes him to Eugene Shepard, Ren’s second. They escort Jack to Ren’s office, where Ren reveals he knows Jack’s past with Marc—and Grace. Jack blames Marc for Grace’s death and agrees to help Ren. Meanwhile, Bo and Norman are attacked by Ren’s men. They defeat them, trace a tracker to Ren’s manor, and call Marc. Jack meets again with Ren, but shots ring out—Bo, Norman, and Marc breach the manor. Andrea is killed, and Ren is warned: Ghost won’t tolerate competition. They retreat. Jack rushes to Andrea’s body and snaps. He steals Ren’s car and chases Bo. On a bridge, Bo falls and hangs off the edge, begging for help. Jack aims... and fires. Norman, still trapped in the car, hears the shot. Marc, racing back, is suddenly stopped. Standing in the road: Sgt. Rain.
