Having introduced a one-world currency, Carpathia now moves to consolidate the world’s religions. Citing religion as a cause of war, bloodshed and destruction throughout the history of mankind, Carpathia brings the church under his control - and he begins by installing a hand-picked Pope in the Catholic Church and raising his status to “Pontifix Maximus.” In the same announcement, he transforms the United Nations into the Global Community, which of course he also governs. Carpathia’s move to put the media under his thumb also happens as legislation loosening restrictions on newspaper, television and radio ownership is passed with lightning speed. Meanwhile, it appears that Rayford can’t avoid a persistent campaign to recruit him as the new pilot of Air Force One - or a personal meeting with Carpathia himself. Upon learning that Hattie has informed Carpathia of his newfound faith, and remembering Buck’s terrifying tale of what happened at the UN, Ray wonders if he’ll survive the encounter.

A mysterious recommendation has been made, bringing Ray to the attention of Nicolae Carpathia, whose personal jet will soon need a pilot. Ray is appalled by the idea of serving under a man he firmly believes to be the Antichrist, and Buck is equally taken aback at the thought of working for any media entity under Nicolae’s thumb. But to the amazement of both Buck and Ray, Bruce thinks they should pursue their respective job opportunities under Carpathia - to allow the Tribulation Force to keep a closer eye on him.

When yet another complaint is lodged against him by an inspector who tagged along on his latest flight, Ray becomes suspicious and decides to track the complaint down to its source. In the meantime, a misunderstanding brings Chloe and Buck perilously close to ending their relationship, especially when he’s not ready to account for his recent trip to New York. When Chloe begins receiving mysterious gifts, and Ray, Buck and Bruce all plead ignorance, Ray begins to wonder if the gifts are coming from the same source as his most recent “complaint.”

Rayford is written up for repeatedly attempting to share his faith with his airline copilots, and faces the real possibility of losing his job. Buck finally agrees to fly to New York to meet with Carpathia again, going through the motions of a reminder of the official story that Buck didn’t attend the UN meeting - or see Stonegal and Todd-Cothran die by Carpathia’s hand. But when Carpathia nevertheless tries to lure Buck with the prospects of overseeing a media empire, the reporter is startled - and becomes even more suspicious.
