Defiance: Everything Is Broken

"Everything Is Broken" is the twelfth episode of season one of the science fiction television series Defiance and the thirteenth episode of the series overall (if one counts the two-part series pilot as two episodes). It was directed by Michael Nankin and written by Kevin Murphy. It first aired on Syfy on Monday, July 8th, 2013 at 9:00 pm.

In this episode, the election results are in, and Defiance welcomes Datak Tarr as its new mayor. With Datak in charge, the Earth Republic has an easy time of claiming jurisdiction over the town, in particular - the McCawley Mines, the secrets of which are sorely coveted. Rynn Grisu finds the ailing Irisa and brings her back to an Irathient settlement. Joshua Nolan and Tommy LaSalle go looking for her, but run afoul of the E-Rep army as well as the mercenary organization known as Echelon.
