Tracking Johan's trail, Wednesday makes his way to Tyr's dentist office but finds that Johan has been murdered, ruling him out as the killer. Shadow begins looking into local man Derek, who he has learned was the thief he previously spotted. Derek denies any connection to Alison. While learning to ice skate, Shadow experiences visions that indicate to him there is something wrong with the frozen lake. Shadow and Marguerite consummate their mutual attraction. Mr. World explains to Laura and Salim that, while he greatly desires to kill Wednesday, carrying out such an act would be a direct act of war, and the new gods aren't ready for that yet. With that in mind, Mr. World points out that Laura doing so would be a convenient loophole and offers to personally help her locate the lost spear of Gungnir. Salim is greatly unsettled by this notion, but Laura remains determined. Salim helps to negotiate favorable terms to Laura to ensure her safety after the assassination is complete. Bilquis further develops her new connections and abilities. Attending a local party, Bilquis meets with the midwife who helped Shadow be born as an infant and learns Shadow has a major destiny.

In the present day, Laura and Salim follow directions to arrive at The Peacock, seeking a leprechaun named Liam Doyle. Salim meets a worker named Kai who expresses an immediate interest in a hesitant Salim. Laura finds out from Liam that he was the one hired by Wednesday to kill her, though Liam turned down the job and lost his lucky coin as punishment. Offering him Sweeney's coin, Liam reluctantly agrees to help Laura find the lost spear. Though she initially fears being cheated, Liam eventually returns with the spear and decides to travel with Laura. Following Kai's invitation, Salim attends a party and meets with Toni, who helps Salim deal with his repressed feelings of sexuality.

259"The Lake Effect"Metin HüseyinLaura Pusey & Damian KindlerMarch 14, 2021 (2021-03-14)0.153[18]
The launch of the Shard project is accompanied by a marketing blitz and massive interest from mortals. Shadow returns to Lakeside, having looked into Marguerite's eldest son and concluding that he also disappeared, similar to Alison. He learns however that evidence was found at Derek's home to suggest he killed Alison, with Derek later seeming to commit suicide. Chad desires to put the matter to rest, but Shadow digs into archives that indicate a missing child has occurred under slightly different circumstances every few years for many decades. Following through with his recurring dreams, Shadow realizes that Alison's body has been stashed in a car that is placed on the ice of Lakeside in a yearly ritual. After nearly drowning in the frozen lake, Shadow awakes in the home of Hinzelmann, learning that she is an Old God herself. Hinzelmann justifies the deaths, pointing out that through the recurring sacrifice of a minor, she is able to bless the town, and ensure that all within it are protected. Admitting that she only allowed Shadow to stay in town as a debt to Wednesday, she attempts to kill Shadow, but is interrupted by Chad and killed by their combined effort. Liam offers to teach Laura how to use the spear, but seeing that she is facing difficulties, offers her Sweeney's coin, telling her that whatever throw she makes will be empowered by immense luck. Wednesday meets with Czernobog and states that he now wishes for peace with the New Gods, and has set a meeting with Mr. World to plan mutual terms and avoid war. Wednesday explains wearily that he accepts that efforts are hopeless against the overwhelming might of the New Gods. Agreeing to go with Wednesday, the two Old Gods meet with Mr. World, but are told that rather than peace, the New Gods are intending to eliminate the Old through the Shard project. Tipped off by Mr. World, Laura interrupts the meeting, and uses her lucky throw of the spear to successfully kill Wednesday. Shadow returns home to Marguerite, who tells him that she is leaving Lakeside for good. Shadow senses that Wednesday has died.
2610"Tears of the Wrath-Bearing Tree"Russell FineLaura Pusey & Ryan SpencerMarch 21, 2021 (2021-03-21)0.182[19]
Shadow and Ibis arrive at the "Center of America Motel", a feared neutral ground that saps the powers of New and Old Gods, in order to have a peaceful handover of Wednesday's corpse. Mr. World arranges for Laura to be in the motel. During the handover process, Mr. World sells out Laura to the Old Gods as the assassin of Wednesday, claiming that Laura acted alone. Czernobog flies into a rage and threatens to kill her, but Shadow steps in to protect Laura from retribution. Shadow and Laura realize that they have drifted apart and part ways in anger. Laura is later visited in the motel by Bilquis. Honoring the agreement he first made with Wednesday long ago, Shadow volunteers to sit vigil, an old Norse tradition that requires him to be hung from the neck and bound to the World Tree for nine days. Technical Boy discovers that Mr. World possesses Artifact One and is storing it in a high tech vault. After finding the Artifact, Mr. World informs Technical Boy that, rather than being a New God of technology, Technical Boy is the Old God Prometheus, with fire being the first technology given to man, and his form, memories and personality changing over the millennia as technology evolved. Mr. World mocks that "this is the age of manipulation" and that trickery is his power. Realizing that Mr. World is likely not a New God either, Technical Boy demands to know his true identity, but World cheerfully leaves Technical Boy locked in the vault. While hung from the tree, Shadow experiences series of surreal visions and eventually enters a dream world that replicates the airplane where he first met Wednesday. He is greeted by Wednesday, who reveals that he engineered his own death and that Shadow, as both his son and a demigod himself, has now effectively given his own life and power as a blood sacrifice to Wednesday, granting immense power at the expense of Shadow's demise. Shadow reacts with rage, but is powerless to fight and dies on the tree. Back in the real world, Wednesday's corpse vanishes and Ibis remarks in fear that they will soon face something much worse than just the death of the Old Gods.
