In the final moments the episode ends with Cummings deliberately setting off a riot, creating enough disorder for her to breach the hospital’s control room. She uses the upheaval as a pretext to commandeer the central hub, where she can activate the frightening strategy she has devised against Boyd. In doing so, she exploits Grace, treating her as a pawn to further her own objectives. The chaos she engineers not only gives her the physical access she needs but also masks her true intentions, allowing her to manipulate the situation from behind the scenes while Boyd remains unaware of the danger closing in.
