After receiving a distress call from another timeship stranded in space, Rip decides to answer the call in order to use the other ship's computer to track Savage. Although the team is suspicious and warns him this could be a trap, he moves forward with his plan. Ultimately, the team was right and they are forced to battle time pirates. With most of the team captured, it is up to Professor Stein to rescue them all.

After the numerous sacrifices the team has made since the beginning of this ride, Rip decides that it's time they each decide their own destiny and returns them to Star City a few months after they first left. Returned to their normal lives, each team member must individually decide if they are willing to sacrifice everything in order to save the world in the season one finale. Meanwhile, Sara visits with her father (guest star Paul Blackthorne) who delivers the heartbreaking news about her sister.
