After heeding Alma's warning about the Marthas, June coincidentally stumbles across one of their hushed meetings in Commander Lawrence's kitchen. Lawrence's Martha, Beth (Kristen Gutoskie), is leading a discussion about how to shelter another Martha there, Cora (Victoria Fodour), who's on the run. They let June join in on the conversation, but it comes to a halt when the Commander bursts in the kitchen and gets angry upon seeing "strangers" in his house. Luckily for Cora, June convinces him to let her stay.
Later the Marthas decide they need to help another one of their ranks escape, and June says she'll help lead the charge. Entrenched in a new iteration of the resistance, the fire in June's eyes burns brighter than ever; clearly she's found a new purpose. She disguises herself as a Martha and accompanies the others to a commercial laundry factory where a van is waiting to take the Martha not to freedom, but out west, where she can put her skills as a chemistry teacher to use to help make bombs.
