Five years after the English Civil War put an end to The Raven Union, Alfie, Dave Boy and Bet Sykes are busy rounding up People With Enhancements (PDubz) and delivering them to the government through Martha Wayne and Lucious Fox.
Meanwhile, Thomas and Martha are surprised when they are visited by Patrick Wayne, Thomas’ estranged father, who is in town on business to find a missing asset, Dr Glub who recently evaded and killed his CIA handler. He is accompanied by a lady called Virginia Devereaux who is mandated to do whatever is needed.
Alfie and Dave Boy have a new job to track down a missing socialite Jessica Thistle and return her to her parents. It’s a good paying gig but Bet is distracted trying to find former Raven leader John Salt. She finds two former Ravens and after killing them both she’s left with a concrete lead on John Salt and a baby.
The lads track Jessica to the commune of Sister Suzie and take the drugged up girl back home. But after one night at home Jessica murders her parents and turns up on Alfie’s doorstep covered in blood.

Episode Written by: Robert Hull
Episode Directed By: Jon East
At Lucius Fox’s secret underground laboratory and home to all the captured PWE’s, Gully Troy, aka Captain Blighty, aka hero of the English Civil War and victor over the Ravens, is sad and feels trapped. He escapes the secret base to try and regain some normality, and Alfie is assigned to track him down before he does any serious damage.
With Alfie otherwise busy, Dave Boy attends the funeral of Jessica’s parents as he becomes wracked with guilt and booze after shooting Jessica dead. As he drinks through the funeral service he makes a sudden and very public admission that he killed Jessica, sending the funeral and coffin into a spin as he is thrown out of the church. Despite the chaos Dave Boy seems to have made an unexpected friend.
After a frank conversation with Martha about her ongoing investigation into Dr Gub, Jessica Thistle, the CIA and Wayne Enterprises, Thomas Wayne tells his father, Patrick, everything that he knows. Patrick passes this to Virginia Devareux who becomes spooked and drugs Thomas.
At evening dinner with Martha, he attempts to kill Martha after he takes a phone call to the tune of Sandra’s number 3. Martha is stabbed by Thomas and struggles to fend off Thomas and stay alive; she is only saved by Mrs Pennyworth after she knocks out Thomas with a massive candle holder.
