We are past the point of Omega’s influence; in Newcomb’s problem, it’d be as if Omega grabbed your mind state, ran it forward until it confirmed that you would not initially two-box, and then stopped. Omega itself has been removed from the problem, and you’re left with one empty box that you’ve already claimed a million dollars from (or negative one million, in this case) and one closed box.
