On Earth, after taking a shower Jimmy Olsen notice the statement "to Apokolips" spelled on his bathroom mirror. Meanwhile at Paradise Island, Mary Batson is having a hard time posing as a slave while spying. She later encounter Harleen Quinzel and tells her that she have overheard something about a ceremony honoring a generation of "Furies". On another part of the island, Granny Goodness is upset of the news of Bernadeth's death from Desaad. Having hearing enough from Desaad's comments of the situation, Granny disguise back into Athena and attends the Furies' ceremony. Back on Apokolips Darkseid boast to Monitor Solomon of how the "game" is turning in favor for him. However, Solomon points out to him that he can make a "passive sacrifice" much to Darkseid's amusement. Back on Paradise Island, in her ceremony, "Athena" introduce to the Amazons of the indoctrination of the Female Furies , and announces her to induct every Amazon as a Fury to rule over Earth. Mary, abandoning her guise, loudly criticize all the Amazons for cheering "Athena" and that they are being used for her own ends much as similar to Eclipso's manipulation of Mary. Taken aback by Mary's stance, "Athena" orders her Furies to kill her. Fortunately and thanks to their Amazonian trainings, Holly and Harley saves Mary and easily resists the Female Furies. Hippolyta soon arrives and reveals Athena as Granny Goodness. Anger at her defeat, Granny retreats back to Apokolips via Boom Tube. But, Harley follows Granny into the Boom Tube forcing Mary and Holly to follow after her. After their unexpected leave, Hippolyta announce to the Amazons that they "need to talk." Meanwhile in the Mexican desert, the Pied Piper plays his flute to Trickster's hand admitting he's gay ever since he was a child. Suddenly a Boom Tube portal is created from behind Piper.
