Root is angry that she went against his orders to hang back. He had told her that she did not have a human invitation to enter the sight. Holly stretched the rule and used a baby's cry as an invitation. She explains this to Root who accepts it, but he is still angry. Then a human is spotted who has not been knocked unconscious by Holly. Root calls for everyone to shield themselves, but Holly can't. It turns out the human is just a toddler, so the problem does not escalate, but Holly is commanded to get her powers before returning underground.
