But Wills neurotic nudging starts to bug Riley, and they turn to Nomi to serve as the mediator.
We believe in pot, and sex!
one of the dads proclaims.
We should all be so lucky to live in the Wachowskis San Francisco.
While Nomi cleans dishes, Will asks her how she knows that her fake ID for Riley will work.
Every trans person needs a new ID, she explains.
And when the government makes them too hard to get, I make it easy.
I wish Nomi could replace the stock tech goon characters on every internet procedural.
Theyre greeted by one of last seasons most tiresome villains: Danis abusive ex, Joaquin.
But Lito steps in and grabs Danis suitcase before Joaquin can walk off with it.
Wanna go again, faggot?
Only if you want your ass kicked by a faggot, he grins, nearly blissful.
Again, his buddy Wolfgang adds, always ready to back him up.
Sorry mom, she says tearfully, I am home.
Danis parents depart, and our favorite trio nearly jump one another in kisses and hugs.
Sakia tells his mother about his ambitions for office, and a bit of a blowout ensues.

and connects the main target, a professor named Mitchell Taylor, to BPO founder Ruth Al-Sadaawi.
And the killer: Todd, the shady anti-sensate sensate.
Now, back to the hugging.
The cluster may be moving united in the battle against BPO, but Sun feels more alone than ever.
She visits her parents graves and starts to unravel.
Everything I considered my home is gone.
She looks back fondly on her mother, who celebrated Sun even when she was terrified for her.
He makes her an offer she cant resist: a rematch to their fight in the rain.
May I propose a test to your invulnerability?
If she wins, she walks away.
If he defeats her, she comes in to the police department and talks.
Naturally, the supreme baller of the show cant say no to a good fight.
But as they duel, Hot Detective finds the words to shatter Suns armor.
Youre not fighting a person, he says.
Youre fighting something else.
You use the false identity to fight because of your father.
I think you refuse to see, to understand how special you are.
That hits a nerve, and Sun nearly melts as they start to make out.
But, remembering herself, she gives him the back of her hand and knocks him unconscious.
Can we like invite him to the next sensate orgy?
Riley gets a tip for a meeting with an Archipelago connection.
Of course, it happens to be the abandoned church from the first scene of the first episode.
But most importantly, we learn where Dr. Milton got his nickname.
But hes stopped with the arrival of… Jonas?
It looks like were heading into someLostterritory.
Plus… were due for at least one more orgy, right?
