'Dark Matter' Episode 3 focused mainly on Jason Dessen's struggles in Jason 2's universe. As he is abducted by Leighton (Dayo Okeniyi), he cracks a way to set himself free.

He acts dumb, suggesting that he lost memory of certain parts of his life and thus gathered information about what Jason 2 was trying to achieve in Velocity.

Everything seems to be going well until Leighton discovers through Ryan (Jimmi Simpson) that Jason is lying about his identity. He is captured again and is interrogated about how he switched between realities.

On the other hand, Jason 2 continues to have a comfortable life with Daniela (Jennifer Connelly) and Charlie (Oakes Fegley).

'Dark Matter' Episode 3 ended with Amanda (Alice Braga) and Jason Dessen entering the box and making an attempt to return to Jason's original reality.

After regaining consciousness from Ryan's magic pill, they find themselves trapped in an infinite corridor.

In the upcoming episode, we'll gain further insight into the world where Amanda and Jason have landed. At this point, we may speculate that their attempt has failed and they have either arrived in a third reality or are trapped between realities.

Jason and Amanda will struggle to stay alive amid the unknown adversities while finding their way back to their original life.

The official synopsis for 'Dark Matter' Episode 4 reads, "Jason and Amanda fight to stay alive in the dangerous Corridor. Jason 2 makes some life changes and visits an old friend."
