Riri sets out to create a suit unlike anything she has ever attempted–but at what cost?
Plot[]
Slug captures N.A.T.A.L.I.E. and Riri's suit. Riri meets up with Zelma, who believes that the hood came from Dormammu. The crew arrives to kill Riri, and she fends them off after sending Zelma away. While battling Clown, Riri tells her that Robbins had Rampage killed before N.A.T.A.L.I.E. helps Riri escape with the suit. Still bitter, N.A.T.A.L.I.E. turns itself off. Riri is attacked by Zeke, now enhanced with bionic implants that emit electricity. He dismantles Riri's suit and is about to kill her, but he changes his mind and spares her, advising her to leave the city instead. Riri asks her mother for help, but Ronnie confronts her for her obsession with her suit. Riri admits she made the suit that could have helped save Natalie and Gary when they were killed. Ronnie and a returning N.A.T.A.L.I.E. decide to help Riri build a new suit in Gary's garage using the old car he and Riri were working on before he died. Zeke and Clown lie to Robbins about Riri's death; Zeke rejects Robbins' proposal to join the crew full-time. Clown helps the crew discover the fabricated autopsy of Rampage, and they accuse Robbins of having him killed. Robbins fires all of them in anger, which causes the hood's corruption to increase through his body through blackened veins. Robbins forces Zeke to help him break into the home of his father Arthur, who is the CEO of Artworks and has a controlling interest in all the companies he and the crew had robbed. Arthur refuses to sign his contracts at first, and Robbins confronts him for abandoning him as a child before forcing him to sign the contracts. Riri, Ronnie, N.A.T.A.L.I.E., and Xavier help make the new suit while Zelma helps empower it with magic to resist Robbins' powers, but it comes at the cost of N.A.T.A.L.I.E.'s permanent deletion.
Zelma tells Riri that magic always comes with a cost. Rumplestiltskin from Once Upon a Time, had the similar catchphrase, "magic always comes with a price".
When N.A.T.A.L.I.E. is inside Riri's suit, the interior projects footage from the first episode, when Riri and Natalie were taking pictures outside of a building.
Riri saying that her death will make the news appears to foreshadow the deal she makes with Mephisto in the final episode.
