Dr. Moses reveals that his so-called cure project is part of a scam to collect incurable EVOs and to weaponize them (amplify their mutations and modify their personalities) to sell to the highest bidder.

Six is able to contact [[Five]] who gives information about where Moses is holding the auction to sell off the incurables.

Doctor Holiday goes to desperate lengths to get her younger sister, Beverly, cured by a mysterious man named Doctor Brandon Moses, who claims to have engineered a machine that can cure seemingly incurable EVOs.

Plot

215-Holiday in audience

Holiday is astonished by Moses' presentation.

At a public demonstration from Moses Labs, CEO, Doctor Branden Moses, is fed up with Providence's militant approach to EVOs. Instead, he states that if science broke it, then science can fix it. Branden introduces the crowd to a large and apparently violent EVO he identifies as Diane, an incurable EVO and mother of three. Diane is strapped into a large contraption and is mostly turned back into her human form evoking heavy applause of the crowd. However, among the audience is a stunned Dr. Holiday.

Back at Providence, Holiday visits her sister and refers to her by the name "Beverly". She wishes her a happy birthday and gifts her with a pink teddy bear, which Beverly rabidly tears to shreds, thus leaving Holiday heartbroken. More news of Moses' work excites Holiday and she has Branden brought in to evaluate her sister.

Holiday decides to work with Moses on the project. While not officially resigning from Providence, she states she has earned five years of vacation time and plans on using it to help Moses. White Knight allows her to go but states that if this does not work, Beverly will not be welcomed back into the Petting Zoo. Suspicious that Moses is not who he is cracked up to be, Agent Six and Rex break into Branden's lab and discover that the "cure" was a hoax—the machine is a fake and "Diane" was actually never cured at all.

215-Branden takes Beverly

After learning the truth, Holiday fights to get Beverly back but fails.

Moses reveals that the true purpose of his plan is to weaponize incurable EVOs and sell them on the black market. His machine true function further mutates the EVOs and makes them more vicious. When Rex tries to cure one of the EVOs, he discovers that he is only able to remove the effects, returning them to their previous EVO form before they entered Moses' machine. Six is able to contact Five who gives information about where Moses is holding the auction to sell off the incurables. Satisfied with the new information, Rex, Holiday, and Six start to leave. Before departing, Five compliments Holiday and advises Six not to "screw it up".

Arriving in the Arctic, where the auction is being held, Moses is heavily outmatched by them. After Six threatens to take Moses' life, Moses reveals that he actually did find a way to cure incurables but turning them weapons was simpler and more profitable. However, he is able to escape and frees his evolved EVO army, one of them being Beverly, to finish off the infiltrators.

215-Six helps Holiday

Six selflessly puts his life on the line to cure Beverly.

At this point, Providence arrives to provide backup and they begin to capture the EVOs. Holiday, with a pep talk from Six, begins to repair and modify the machine while Six and Rex begin corralling Beverly into it. Six is advised to use his magna blades to reverse the machine's polarity, however, it is risky. Taking the chance, the machine nearly kills Six and he narrowly survives. The machine is destroyed in the process, however, Beverly survives the explosion. Better yet, she is successfully cured and is walks out of the machine unharmed.

In the aftermath of it all, Rex has an epiphany and decides to stop flirting with Holiday seeing that she too mature for him and states that Beverly is more of a teenage version. In the meantime, Six and Holiday decide to go on a date as a way of showing one another gratitude.
