Attack Backfire: The final challenge has Kayla and the previous victim Hal fight to the death, but with a catch. Any attempt to attack the other is reflected upon themselves. However, as Kayla quickly figures out, self-inflicted injuries also count, so the challenge becomes an exercise in who can kill themselves first.

Bittersweet Ending: Kayla survives and wins the ultimate prize: the command prompt that enables her to manipulate reality which she uses to kill Lance, fully heal her injuries and save her mother. But the experience has changed her, innocent people have suffered and died along with her friend Isaac and Beck is still out there. That and with this newfound power, she confides in Beck that she'll use it to inflict the same sort of punishment onto others.
