    Info for previous episode, "Charles (Manson) in Charge":
    Kai recounts the Tate murders to the militiamen. Afterwards, he begins to suspect that a ‪mole has infiltrated the cult and slips into a state of manic paranoia which plagues him with visions of Charles Manson. Meanwhile, Bebe Babbitt is incensed by Kai's failing to implement their master plan: to unleash female rage with an inflammatory political platform. Ally shoots Bebe in the head after she pulls a gun on Kai. After reporting on the murder of Gary, enacted by the cult at a local Planned Parenthood, a broken Beverly is urged by Winter to run away. Beverly insists that she remain loyal to Kai. Kai later tearfully strangles Winter to death after Ally singles her out as the mole. Ally takes notice of the real mole, militiaman Speedwagon.

Months later, Ally divulges to Beverly that the FBI recruited her as an informant. Beverly becomes a key advisor to Ally's Michigan Senate campaign. Kai escapes from a maximum security prison and infiltrates a televised political debate between Ally and her opponent. Kai misogynistically tirades and points a gun to Ally's head. He pulls the trigger just to discover that the gun isn't unloaded. Beverly shoots him in the skull. Ally obtains the vast majority of the female vote and wins a Senate seat.
