Being an island, this would mean that all connections to the outside world will be cut off if the hacker succeeds. You can see the team's urgency in the promo as this would completely disrupt the island's functioning, rendering many important things useless. The official synopsis for the episode reads:

"After a ransomware attempt causes a dam to malfunction, Ernie and a team of hackers are tasked to find the culprit before all power and water is cut off on the island; Whistler gets a chance to apologize to Lucy and mend their relationship."

The episode will have a heavy focus on Ernie Malik (Jason Antoon), the group's tech-power.
