In which Mitch and Archie studiously avoid making small-talk.

Sitrep.

The Club, still sans Roger, holds a hybrid “remote meeting” to evaluate their clues.

Flash forward to 1974! • The abducted heir to the Hearst fortune commits bank robbery • And the Bohemian Club has a fire • URIEL-SF scrambles to action • Mitch stumbles upon … Ambrose Bierce at Mt. Shasta • URIEL-LA considers workshopping a new Andy Krane vehicle • Coincidences abound • Roger is still missing

Aided by Morris Parks, Marshall locates Jocasta at a motel in White Sands, where he invites her into his plot against the CWG.

Roger takes Sophie out for a martini lunch. Hey, it’s 5 o’clock somewhere.

Viv and Marshall exchange words about the potential recruitment of Terence McKenna to the Mission. Then, Zeb has a heart attack.

URIEL makes plans to further investigate Beale Farms, and to black-bag Bernadette Fry and her cultists.

Jocasta goes undercover at Agrigenics • Roger engages in some routine sabotage • Charley explores the astral plane and discovers a soul-sucking machine • Marshall fields a call from Archie’s boss

Marshall brings his bag man and driver Dave Rocco into the fold, so to speak.

URIEL conspires to get Charley therapy • Not really, they’re gonna spy on Viv • Roger and Mitch case Andy’s place • Mitch deduces that Andy’s Illuminated • Which has really odd implications • Charley talks about her past lives • Mitch and Roger get eyes on Andy • And witness History B vibes emerge from a confrontation with a pair of fanboys • Archie questions whether Viv and Andy are Maoist-equivalents in the War for History
