The Nautilus crew spread sentiments of uprising and rumours that the East India Mercantile Company is going under. When the stock price plunges, a shareholder meeting is called for tonight. Nemo and the crew have three hours to become the largest shareholder, so they can dissolve the Company forever.

The Nautilus crew, disguised, spread sentiments of uprising and rumours that the Company is going under. When the stock price plunges, a shareholder meeting is called for tonight. Nemo and the crew have three hours to become the largest Company shareholder.

Humility reunites with mother and uses the skeletons in Lord Pitt’s family closet to force him to sign a new ‘marriage contract’, which instead gives his shares to Humility. Jiacomo, Boniface and Cuff steal back shares the Company stole from people they had committed to an asylum, while Nemo uses forged diamond mine plans and the one gemstone salvaged from Halvar to trade shares for the non-existent mine.

The shareholders gather. Crawley tries to reassure them but Nemo appears and reveals himself and the crew as the largest shareholder. Nemo is voted in as Company Chairman. He dissolves the Company, which includes freeing all prisoners from Kalpani.

Nemo sets fire to the Company archives, but salvages a small stone, similar to the one Benoit gave him. When Nemo discovers it was Millais who ordered that his palace be burned, which his wife and daughter died in, they fight, but Nemo won’t kill him. Nemo tells Humility she can’t come with them. He couldn’t save his wife and daughter but he can keep her safe. Humility and Loti are left behind, but have each other.

The Dreadnought pursues the Nautilus, but the crew use explosives to bring a bridge down on the Dreadnought. The British government takes over the Company’s assets and revokes its charter. The Nautilus escapes, but now the entire British empire will be after them…
