Spencer's girlfriendTrina Robinson stowed away on the ship, made herself known to Liesl and Spencer, and was able to do minor sabotage to the Star, including contacting her mother Portia Robinson, Spencer's grandmotherLaura Collins, and her step-fatherCurtis Ashford. When she is found, Victor at first wants her thrown overboard. Spencer fights for her and attempts to bargain. Liesl saves them by convincing Victor she could use them as guinea pigs for her vaccine.
Two days after setting off to sea, the Star reaches its destination. Based off the coordinates Trina gave and the WSB's intel, they docked at an island somewhere off the coast of Greenland. Laura, Spencer's cousin and Victor's son Valentin Cassadine, Navy SEALDrew Cain, and Curtis leave to make the rescue when the WSB claims they have no jurisdiction.
At the lab, Liesl confirms the pathogens efficacy, but says there isn't time and too many variables to confirm if the antigen will be viable. At the same time, while attempting to get into the compound, Valentin gives himself up to be caught, in an attempt to get through to his father, stop the mass murder, and let the hostages go. Victor refuses, and forces Liesl to use his son as a test subject, when she refuses to use the young and innocent Spencer and Trina. She has to inject him with the pathogen first, then treat him with the antigen. She apologizes to him, and Valentin wonders how long he has to live.
After managing to stop Victor, as well as shutdown the carbonic snow machine, Victor makes a run for it back to the Star, with the antigen and an unwilling Liesl in tow. Holly Sutton stops them, in the process reveals to Victor that she's responsible for his chemical castration. Drew shows up and knocks him out, but Liesl is injured as well. After they rouse her, they realize Victor escaped again. Spencer and Trina with Ace were making their way to the seaplane, when they see Victor running to the Star with the antigen. Promising to make it back to her, Spencer takes off after his great-great uncle, intending to stop him.
When Victor reaches the Star, he is furious to discover the antigen container is empty - Liesl reveals to Holly and Drew that she managed to swipe them. One of them is immediately rushed off to save Valentin, who is being comforted by Anna in his final moments. Trina with Ace finds Laura and Curtis, who inform her they got a hold of the WSB, who redirected the drone strike from the island to the Star - and panicked, she reveals Spencer followed Victor onto the Star to stop him, horrifying his grandmother Laura.
The next day, in a temporary facility setup by the WSB, Trina cares for Ace and is updated by Valentin on the search. The wreckage and nearby shore are being searched for bodies and survivors, Anna is in London dealing with the new director and the foreign diplomatic complications, Curtis is being debriefed, and they are all going to meet him in the plane. Victor's body is found, Trina is relieved and Valentin says goodbye to his dead father. Trina tells Valentin she would know it if Spencer were dead, and refuses to leave without him; after he brings up that Ace needs to be back home, her family is waiting for her, and there is nothing further they can do. She is comforted by Laura and begrudgingly walks back to the seaplane - when the group is shocked to see Spencer alive and coming back to them. She cries out for him, runs and leaps into his arms, and they kiss passionately.
