Loyola is charged with conspiracy to commit murder, her mental state laid bare in court. In a parallel civil suit, "Loyola v. Godber," she sues Godber for hacking her private messages, claiming violation of privacy. The case forces a public debate on vigilantism and digital ethics. Godber testifies, revealing his past trauma and finding a measure of redemption. The judge rules evidence admissible under exigent circumstances, and Loyola is convicted. Godber disappears once more, but this time the blockchain holds his legacy as a protector.
