The group wonders why the Postman did not film the deaths of the other inmates. Dee realizes Nyles can still make it to the meeting with his lawyers and communicate off-island. Nyles grabs Dee’s hand, to her excitement, then lets it go, to her confusion, and the group hurries to the modern, state-of-the-art guard station. The door is open. The sentry hut is abandoned, and the phones are dead. There are a dozen dead guards outside a building in the courtyard. Dozens more dead guards are piled in a meeting room. All were gassed around the same time as the prisoners. Ethan is hungry, and Griselda wants to find a computer to contact the outside world. Mara speculates that the guard tower must have a mess hall. Ethan searches a dead guard and uses his ID card to get them inside.

On the Postman Forum, the Griff thinks that the Postman is covering something up and Alcatraz 2.0 is “fake.” The moderator warns they will delete the Griff’s post if they keep making unsupported claims. Another contributor thinks the Griff is right. The Griff’s next post is deleted.
