Two of the 29 human boys capable of breeding with Lisa have collapsed and died of unknown causes. The dwindling resources mean Anna is more anxious than ever to either have Lisa get her slut on with Rafael the Spanish stud or to have the hybrid aged to a respectable breeding age as quickly as possible. Lisa informs Anna she is ready to fulfill her duties with Rafael, but Tyler ruins it all by existing and fake-fighting the guy. Then Rafael dies from that mystery disease. So Tyler wins? Anna is not pleased about all these dead breeders. Joshua explains that the boys' DNA is collapsing, right now! In unison! Unfortunately, there's a cure and Tyler won't, you know, die.

The Visitors found a perfect specimen for their human DNA collection --unfortunately, it's in an adorable little girl whose mommy has a few doubts about sending her to live on a spaceship. So Anna tells the woman that she has a little girl who's the same age. To make this fact, Ryan's hybrid daughter is taken from him to be playmates with the little girl with the magic DNA, and he is slated to be killed, until he takes out the would-be assassin. Ryan then roams the ship looking for his daughter but finds Lisa, who takes him to Grandma the Good Queen. Luckily, she has invisible escape pods, and Bliss of her own to cure his daughter. Handy, right? Ryan takes the first pod out, leaving his daughter with the only mother she's ever known and a promise that he would be back. In return for her assistance, Diana instructs Lisa to tell Marcus that she's alive. Also, he is.

Erica has a super complicated plan to stop the Live Aboard program. Basically Chad has to acquire a list of Live Aboards, and then she's going to turn them all into DNA bombs via flu shots. (Now why does that sound familiar?) First, they must break into a lab and steal the vaccine. For some reason she thinks Sid the Science Kid would be a great addition to the breaking and entering team. But Jack, with all his priestly morals, is the weak link, tsk-tsking all the guns and shooting. During the break-in Kyle got shot, so Erica shoots the guard, which gives Jack pause. Then Kyle doesn't wear a shirt for an hour. (Vom.) At some point Jack realizes that injecting people with random DNA-altering viruses could be bad for them (who knew?) and calls Erica out on her cold-hearted, cutthroat attitude. She reminds him that she is the boss of him. This does not stop Jack from whining a lot.
