00:00:00When I was seven, I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
00:00:04I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder
00:00:08when I was seven years old.
00:00:12I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder
00:00:16when I was seven years old.
00:00:20I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder
00:00:24when I was seven years old.
00:00:28When I was seven, I had no memory of being six.
00:00:32It didn't matter. My parents adopted me
00:00:36because they loved me. And Aaron?
00:00:40Aaron took me in because he cared.
00:00:44But even then, I didn't know how much.
00:00:48As I carried him, so he would carry me.
00:00:52Through so much.
00:00:56This is only where it begins.
00:01:00Hi Aaron. Where have you been?
00:01:04Where have you been? Getting shot in all sorts of weird places?
00:01:08Been installed as Major General in my house.
00:01:12I'm authority sector now.
00:01:16Sometimes that means taking some hits.
00:01:20Well, I would say congratulations, but I know you only probably got the position early
00:01:24because you failed too.
00:01:28Yeah. He's gone. Lester heard your parents were dead too.
00:01:32And your aunt and uncle overtaking you in?
00:01:36Well, since I'm adopted, my aunt and uncle didn't even see me as my parents' kid.
00:01:40Come home with me.
00:01:44What? Going from friends to being family isn't that weird of a leap, right?
00:01:48Okay.
00:01:52Slurp.
00:01:56Slurp.
00:02:00I'm sorry I'm late. I was turning in my paper.
00:02:04You'll just have to catch up with us.
00:02:08Hey, this is my new best friend as of yesterday, T.
00:02:12New bestie, this is Leah. When was the last time I saw you?
00:02:16A few months ago? At your father's funeral. I'm so sorry.
00:02:20He's your dad? Was my dad. You understand.
00:02:24When you work for the authority sector, you owe no time to family.
00:02:28Well, Aaron has plenty of time for- Aaron. Aaron. Aaron.
00:02:32Enough about Aaron. Don't talk to me about him.
00:02:36He has no time for me.
00:02:40Calm down, Benzo. I got just the thing you need.
00:02:44Oh.
00:02:48Uh, none for me, thanks.
00:02:52Brendan! Hi!
00:02:56Leah! Fancy seeing you outside the classroom again.
00:03:00You're not spying on me, are you? No, I'm not. I promise.
00:03:04And I did do my paper on the Civil War in Lisegor before I arrived.
00:03:08Great. And I'm looking forward to reading what you know about my mother country.
00:03:18So, who's the hottie?
00:03:22Your boy?
00:03:26Oh, that's just Brendan. He's the T.A. for my Modern Conflicts class.
00:03:30I think he likes you.
00:03:34You should show him your appreciation for all his hard work.
00:03:38Stella! He's to being appreciated for all our hard work.
00:03:48Um.
00:03:52Will you excuse me? I just need to go to the restroom.
00:03:56Mm-hmm. The restroom.
00:04:00Right. Have fun.
00:04:18What's the situation, report?
00:04:22We've traced the distribution of their new designer drug to this club.
00:04:26We were able to get a sample of it, and the lab boffins determined
00:04:30there are markers in the chemical composition which determine it's a Class VII.
00:04:34Damn it!
00:04:38What can you tell me about this mesmerizing drug?
00:04:42It's a class VII drug.
00:04:46What can you tell me about this mesmer?
00:04:50It's fast acting, and it was originally developed as a date rape drug.
00:04:58It raises libido,
00:05:02lowers inhibition, causes memory loss, and induces a potentially
00:05:06fatal brain fever in the victim. It also increases the sensitivity
00:05:10of the nerve receptors, causing intense sensations of pain and pleasure.
00:05:14...
00:05:18...
00:05:22...
00:05:26...
00:05:30...
00:05:34So how does it work?
00:05:38You can't tell what's wrong at first. After all, starving is very different
00:05:42from being a little hungry.
00:05:46And if you suddenly become a bottomless little pit of need,
00:05:50you might just jump anything with a pulse
00:05:54to see if it fills you.
00:05:58So pretty.
00:06:02We need a doctor!
00:06:06This is what I think it is. A doctor can't help her.
00:06:10It can be, without a blood test.
00:06:14You said the drug causes a potentially fatal brain fever?
00:06:18Look, if a doctor can't help her, then who can? What's the cure?
00:06:22There is no cure. No antidote. We can only mitigate these symptoms.
00:06:26Mitigate how?
00:06:30The only known treatment is skin contact.
00:06:34Lots of skin contact.
00:06:38I don't know if she's seen anyone.
00:06:42We haven't talked about her love life in over a year.
00:06:46I have a suggestion.
00:06:50Look, it can't just be anyone. She's too precious.
00:06:54It has to be someone that she loves.
00:06:58I want it to be you. Only you.
00:07:02Are you certain?
00:07:06Help me.
00:07:10Do you know what this means?
00:07:14Yes.
00:07:18I'll be outside if you need me.
00:07:32...
00:07:36...
00:07:40...
00:07:44...
00:07:48...
00:07:52I'm bored.
00:07:56Don't worry. I got just the thing.
00:08:00It has all the benefits and none of the drawbacks.
00:08:04I'll even throw it in for free.
00:08:08...
00:08:12...
00:08:16Hey.
00:08:20You wanna help me ride through this trip?
00:08:24Sorry, I don't offer those services.
00:08:28You smell just like him.
00:08:32I've got places to go, but I do have a couple of friends who are more than willing to help you out.
00:08:36For a price.
00:08:40Friends. Plural. Yes, please.
00:08:48It was a pleasure doing business with you.
00:08:52...
00:08:56...
00:09:00...
00:09:04...
00:09:08Everyone freeze! Authority Sector is securing the area!
00:09:12...
00:09:16...
00:09:20...
00:09:24...
00:09:28...
00:09:32...
00:09:36...
00:09:40...
00:09:44...
00:09:48...
00:09:52...
00:09:56...
00:10:00...
00:10:04...
00:10:08...
00:10:12...
00:10:16...
00:10:20...
00:10:24Mrs. Shelley. What may I do for you?
00:10:28You can begin by explaining why you had my daughter arrested.
00:10:32Especially after you promised my husband that you'd take care of us.
00:10:36You know I can't comment on ongoing Authority Sector investigations.
00:10:40At the time of the arrest, I was unaware of Stella's presence at the site.
00:10:44Be that as it may, you could have done something to prevent her name from being released to the press.
00:10:48Do you know how I felt hearing about my daughter's arrest?
00:10:52Like she was a common criminal? It was an embarrassment.
00:10:56I'm sure it isn't Aaron's fault.
00:11:00I know. I put myself in a vulnerable situation.
00:11:04Sometimes, I just get so upset about Eddie's death.
00:11:08I miss him so much.
00:11:12I'll see what I can do.
00:11:16Very well then. In the meantime, you must come to lunch at our place.
00:11:20Just to show we've put this shameful business behind us.
00:11:24Certainly.
00:11:28...
00:11:32...
00:11:36...
00:11:40...
00:11:44...

00:21:20...
00:21:22...
00:21:24...
00:21:26...
00:21:28but she's not our primary suspect.
00:21:31Who is?
00:21:32That TA who's been following you around,
00:21:35Brendan Martin.
00:21:39What, Brendan?
00:21:42Brendan?
00:21:44Are you serious?
00:21:45Yeah.
00:21:47Take a look.
00:21:49Security footage has him at the scene
00:21:51right before the raid.
00:21:53Look, he's exiting,
00:21:54he's handling a lot of people's drinks,
00:21:57and then he talks to you.
00:21:59Barely a minute before you came to me.
00:22:01Brendan's not a criminal.
00:22:02His documentation has a lot of holes in it, Lea.
00:22:05Okay, well, that's what happens
00:22:06when you're a refugee from another country.
00:22:08Aren't you the one who told me that?
00:22:10Yes, but that's also what happens when you're a spy.
00:22:13Or, or, when you work for the biggest drug ring in Brazil.
00:22:17He does not work for a drug ring,
00:22:19and he wouldn't hurt me.
00:22:20How do you know that?
00:22:21Because he's my friend.
00:22:23I don't agree with you about Brendan,
00:22:27but I know you always have my best interest at heart, so.
00:22:30Always.
00:22:31I don't like when we fight like this.
00:22:35Me neither.
00:22:36Hey, do you remember when we used to have movie nights?
00:22:39Yeah, you hogged all the popcorn?
00:22:41I did not!
00:22:42But I will make the popcorn if you choose the movie.
00:22:47I'm sorry, Lea, I don't mean to be rude,
00:22:50but I don't want to be rude to you.
00:22:53I'm sorry, I don't mean to be rude to you.
00:22:56I'm sorry, I don't mean to be rude to you.
00:22:59Stella, pour me some tea.
00:23:00Why?
00:23:01Gary has the day off.
00:23:02Also hand me the report behind you.
00:23:09Now, Aaron,
00:23:13I'm glad you've taken the steps to make things right
00:23:15with Stella and the authority sector business the other day.
00:23:18Mrs. Shelley, I'm really sorry about-
00:23:20You're sorry for our loss, yes, I know.
00:23:23And you miss my husband too.
00:23:26Joseph was always a workaholic,
00:23:28so as a fellow major general,
00:23:30you knew him better than any of us.
00:23:32There's anything that I can do?
00:23:33Oh, there is.
00:23:36You promised to take care of Stella
00:23:37and to look after our family.
00:23:39Yes.
00:23:40I intend for you to honor that promise,
00:23:43especially since you slept with my daughter
00:23:45shortly before arresting her.
00:23:48What?
00:23:48Be quiet, Stella.
00:23:50Mrs. Shelley, I did not.
00:23:52I know a man of your position
00:23:53can never admit to such a thing out loud,
00:23:55but let us be clear on what I do know.
00:23:58Stella was quite loose-lipped
00:23:59when I picked her up from the facility.
00:24:01She smelled of, well, certain liberties,
00:24:05and she kept sniffing at her sleeves.
00:24:07When I asked, she babbled on about a wild night
00:24:11and still having the smell of your cologne on her clothes.
00:24:15I know my daughter might not be so forthcoming
00:24:17at the moment, but she was in no shape to lie to me then.
00:24:21So, by all means, deny what you must,
00:24:24just so long as you make good on your promises.
00:24:33Come in.
00:24:35Here's my paper.
00:24:37Thank you for the second chance.
00:24:38Yeah.
00:24:39Have a seat.
00:24:41It looks better already.
00:24:42Did you learn anything interesting about Lissagor?
00:24:45It's like our professor said in class.
00:24:48There are always multiple reasons for conflict,
00:24:50but I just feel bad for the royal family.
00:24:54How so?
00:24:55It seems like they were governing responsibly,
00:24:57and then out of nowhere, bam, civil war.
00:25:00They disappear.
00:25:04Wait.
00:25:06Do you have any memories from before you were adopted?
00:25:09Who told you I was adopted?
00:25:11I can't really explain.
00:25:13Not here.
00:25:14It's not secure enough.
00:25:16I could show you.
00:25:17Come with me, please.
00:25:18I'm not going anywhere with you.
00:25:22Leah, it's important.
00:25:26Please, I don't mean you any harm.
00:25:29I just really need you to trust me.
00:25:34Please.
00:25:35Fine, but I'm not going to some secondary location with you.
00:25:39You can come to my house.
00:25:42Aaron will be there, so no funny business.
00:25:45All right.
00:25:47I'll see you in an hour.
00:26:10You got buried treasure in there?
00:26:12Of a sort.
00:26:14This is yours?
00:26:16It's not in here.
00:26:21A bach.
00:26:44Leah, darling, we need to go now.
00:26:58What was that?
00:27:01What was that?
00:27:03Did that spark any memories?
00:27:06I don't know what you're talking about.
00:27:09I don't know what you're talking about.
00:27:13Do you remember who gave me the doll?
00:27:17Your mother.
00:27:18My mother is dead.
00:27:21Why are you doing this?
00:27:24Leah.
00:27:25Please don't touch me.
00:27:28Touch her again and I'll kill you.
00:27:30How long have you been following us?
00:27:32Why did you give her the drugs?
00:27:34Don't know what the hell you're talking about.
00:27:36Get off me.
00:27:37Get off me.
00:27:38Calm down.
00:27:39I'm fine.
00:27:40You didn't sound fine.
00:27:41I was upset, but not with him.
00:27:43At least, not enough for this.
00:27:46I invited him over.
00:27:48I don't need you to play knight in shining armor.
00:27:51I need you to leave.
00:27:53Now.
00:27:54We'll talk later.
00:27:58All right.
00:28:02I don't want that man in my house.
00:28:04Okay, you know what?
00:28:05Last time I checked, this was my house too.
00:28:07He's been spying on you.
00:28:09And he's working for the ring.
00:28:10Who told you that?
00:28:12Little miss I can do no wrong Stella.
00:28:14Oh, leave her out of this.
00:28:15Why?
00:28:16What are you going to do?
00:28:17Marry her?
00:28:18What?
00:28:19No.
00:28:20Well, you might want to tell her that.
00:28:36Huh.
00:28:52Mama?
00:28:53Where are you?
00:28:56Leah, darling.
00:28:58We need to go now.
00:29:01Yes, Mama.
00:29:06What is it?
00:29:07Please come eat with me.
00:29:08It's urgent.
00:29:11I told you, I need time.
00:29:14I know, but there isn't any more time.
00:29:16I need you to meet me at the airport lot.
00:29:18I'm not going to leave the country with you.
00:29:20It's nothing like that.
00:29:22I need your help to welcome someone.
00:29:24Please.
00:29:25It's important.
00:29:28I'm sorry.
00:29:29I'm sorry.
00:29:30I'm sorry.
00:29:31I'm sorry.
00:29:32I'm sorry.
00:29:33I'm sorry.
00:29:44I need sleep.
00:29:45Meet me in the morning then.
00:29:46The flight arrives in four hours.
00:29:48You have time for three more hours of rest.
00:29:51I have a headache.
00:29:53You can earn extra credit for the class.
00:29:56Fine.
00:30:04Leah.
00:30:17Leah.
00:30:20Leah?
00:30:22Leah.
00:30:27Oh my God.
00:30:31She's fine.
00:30:33She got up early to go run an errand.
00:30:37Did she say what kind of errand it was?
00:30:38No.
00:30:40Okay.
00:30:42Hi.
00:30:48Okay.
00:30:49Okay.
00:30:50Okay.
00:30:51Okay.
00:30:56Man, please tell me we have something on my damn cousin and that damn drug ring.
00:31:00Afraid not, boss.
00:31:02However, we did find something interesting regarding something else entirely.
00:31:17I'm not committing to anything.
00:31:19You know, for all I know, they're just weird dreams.
00:31:22Do you want to tell me about your dreams?
00:31:24When we were kids, did we used to play together?
00:31:32I...
00:31:35And you had a pet frog named Mortimer.
00:31:39All my dreams are real.
00:31:41Do you have any other memories?
00:31:44Maybe of your family?
00:31:46Yes, Mama.
00:31:47Just a soft voice.
00:31:50Reminders to sit up straight.
00:31:52Rule wisely.
00:31:54That's right.
00:31:55You're a princess, Leah.
00:31:56A princess?
00:31:59It can't be.
00:32:01There are tests that can prove it.
00:32:03The easiest is to look for specific antibodies which can be traced back to the blood...
00:32:07Blood of the Lizagor family?
00:32:09Yeah.
00:32:10There's no groups of people that can shake off this drug very quickly.
00:32:13I'm immune to the aftereffects of Class 7 drugs.
00:32:17Are you certain?
00:32:19Help me.
00:32:22Still processing?
00:32:23Understatement.
00:32:31You've been waiting a long time to do that.
00:32:33Waiting a long time for it to mean something.
00:32:34Who are we meeting?
00:32:36Lady Tiffany Altamon.
00:32:38Queen of Lizagor.
00:32:40Your mother.
00:32:42Mama.
00:32:43Leah.
00:32:45Your Majesty.
00:32:46Your Highness.
00:32:47We ought to move somewhere more private.
00:32:48Private?
00:32:53Yep.
00:32:54See you today.
00:32:58I suppose you were too young to remember what Lizagor was like before you left.
00:33:03I lost my memories in an accident when I was seven.
00:33:07There was a coup following a bloody civil war.
00:33:11Your father and I, we feared for your safety.
00:33:14We sent you out of the country ahead of the rest of the family.
00:33:18But word of your escape got to our enemies.
00:33:22And they sabotaged your route.
00:33:25That's when we got the news that you had died.
00:33:33Once Lady Tiffany and Lord Edmund were trapped in the country as political prisoners, none of their allies could contact them.
00:33:39Lord Edmund?
00:33:41Your father.
00:33:43He was a good man and a brave one.
00:33:45He loved you very much.
00:33:49What happened to him?
00:33:50He died in prison.
00:33:51Two years ago, I was able to find Lady Tiffany and tell her the news.
00:33:56News?
00:33:58I found the lost princess.
00:33:59Oh, shh.
00:34:01Darling, we can be a family once more.
00:34:05No, no, I have a family.
00:34:08Yes, of course, the Jenkins. We will never forget the Jenkins.
00:34:11No, no. Aaron, he needs to know.
00:34:14Who?
00:34:15Aaron Harold.
00:34:17He took Leia in after the Jenkins died.
00:34:20He's quite protective of her.
00:34:23Of course, we will show our gratitude on him as well.
00:34:27He won't have to worry about you anymore.
00:34:30Your fiancé is more than capable of protecting you.
00:34:34My what?
00:34:36Your fiancé.
00:34:39Sir Brendan, of course.
00:34:43No.
00:34:45Oh.
00:34:49I thought for sure you would have told her that.
00:34:53I was getting to it.
00:34:55Brendan.
00:34:57My defense, your majesty.
00:34:58You arranged your flight ahead of schedule.
00:35:01What was I supposed to do?
00:35:02It is one of our oldest traditions for the heir of the crown
00:35:05to marry a friend born into the espionage sector.
00:35:10The curriculum at this place is a bit lacking, I'm afraid.
00:35:14It makes it difficult to bring it up naturally.
00:35:24Yes?
00:35:25Stella, I require an update on Aaron.
00:35:27I want a timeline on your nuptials.
00:35:29It's not that easy, mom.
00:35:31I'm sorry.
00:35:32Do you wish to find yourself pregnant and destitute in a West End back alley?
00:35:37Just because I can't get a major general to marry me right away,
00:35:40it doesn't mean that nobody would at all.
00:35:42I guarantee every woman trapped in that back alley told herself the same thing.
00:35:46No excuses, Stella.
00:35:49I've just got to take care of that Leah first.
00:35:52I've got a plan to show her that I mean business.
00:35:55You should already be on the next step.
00:35:57I'm working on Aaron, okay?
00:35:59It's just going to take...
00:36:02Stella, you will say goodbye to your mother properly, young lady.
00:36:09That's going to look great.
00:36:11You like that?
00:36:13Oh, that's nice.
00:36:14That's nice.
00:36:22Damn.
00:36:23I'm forgetting something.
00:36:25I'm forgetting something.
00:36:26Oh.
00:36:29You idiot!
00:36:30I was the one who hired you.
00:36:32You got the wrong girl!
00:36:37You know, that's really rich.
00:36:39That's a good one.
00:36:40I've never heard that before.
00:36:41That's cute, even.
00:36:43I was not...
00:36:44Listen, I got my marching orders, missy.
00:36:47I'm here to grab Stella Shelley.
00:36:51And that is 100% you.
00:36:55I gave you this damn assignment.
00:36:58Pick up Target.
00:36:59Transport gagged in car.
00:37:01Tie up in public space.
00:37:03Feed breadcrumbs.
00:37:04And dress up with humiliating message.
00:37:08Oh, my God.
00:37:11I did not mean breadcrumbs, literally.
00:37:14A, you just described our whole morning.
00:37:17So, that means nothing to me, okay?
00:37:19And B, I ain't getting paid to be creative.
00:37:22Overpriced hack!
00:37:26Why do young people got to take things so personally?
00:37:30Last step.
00:37:33Humiliating message.
00:37:38Oh, my God.
00:37:40My fiance is a major general.
00:37:42And once he hears about this, you are done!
00:37:48Oh, I'm scared.
00:37:51Let's do it.
00:37:54Get this off of me.
00:37:55No.
00:38:01You may recall a black market site we were researching a few months back.
00:38:05Hinchman for hire.
00:38:07Still can't believe they went with that name.
00:38:09It's accurate.
00:38:17One of our guys cracked the encryption on one of their servers?
00:38:20Finally.
00:38:21We do have to move quickly.
00:38:23They have a rather disturbing policy when it comes to compromised accounts.
00:38:27It's automation and it's finicky.
00:38:30Can we hack it?
00:38:32Maybe, but I'd rather we handled this one personally.
00:38:35There's some prominent people who've been using their services.
00:38:42I'd ask you if you're sure about this.
00:38:45But it's already in progress.
00:38:49I'm sure.
00:38:50And I'm not sorry.
00:38:55Somebody help me, please!
00:38:57Oh, my God, Aaron.
00:38:59I am so glad to see you.
00:39:01I'm so glad to see you.
00:39:04I'm so glad to see you.
00:39:06You have to get the guy who did this to me.
00:39:09You have to arrest him.
00:39:12Aaron.
00:39:14Aaron, are you hearing me?
00:39:17Oh, I hear you.
00:39:19And I will.
00:39:22Do you know what happens when Hinchman for hire servers detect authority sector tampering with a client's accounts?
00:39:28No.
00:39:29No.
00:39:30How would I know?
00:39:31They flag the potentially compromised client's accounts and flag them for death.
00:39:37I don't see how this is relevant to me, Aaron.
00:39:41Ruben cut the funding to your accounts before he realized.
00:39:44Ruben's a liar.
00:39:46Stop!
00:39:47Ruben has never lied to me.
00:39:51And he never will.
00:39:53And besides, you're missing the point.
00:39:57What's the point?
00:39:58This was originally going to be an assassination attempt, Stella.
00:40:02So don't you dare say that I didn't protect you.
00:40:08Don't you ever say that I didn't protect you.
00:40:11I'm not feeling very protected at the moment, considering I'm still here.
00:40:14And the guy who did this to me is still out there.
00:40:18We found a way to redirect the system.
00:40:21Got it to select the most recent assignment that you had assigned to it instead.
00:40:25That...
00:40:27That is not what...
00:40:28Justice?
00:40:29I think it is.
00:40:31I think watching what you had planned for Leah done to you...
00:40:36I think that's beyond justice.
00:40:39I think that's mercy.
00:40:42And this is the final mercy that you or your family will ever get from me.
00:40:55Let's try this one more time, huh?
00:41:25Princess?
00:41:42Princess?
00:41:47I don't see it.
00:41:55I should tell Aaron.
00:41:57He'll know what to do.
00:42:00You'll tell Aaron nothing.
00:42:04**whistle**
00:42:08With the relaxation of the Empire's border laws,
00:42:11Lysagor's queen in exile has announced her intention to visit Ra's al-Zil.
00:42:16The exact day and purpose is still in secret.
00:42:19I'm still on stakeout.
00:42:21No lead yet.
00:42:22Do you remember the cologne incident from seven years ago?
00:42:25The one involving your cousin?
00:42:27On your mother's side?
00:42:28Tyler, yes.
00:42:29Hard to forget.
00:42:31I was grateful he got kicked out before Leah had to meet him.
00:42:33Are you sure that I got the last crate?
00:42:35Aaron, when that petty little shit learned you had a favorite anything,
00:42:39he wanted it for himself.
00:42:41But I'm not gonna forget that he bought every last bottle of that cologne.
00:42:45Because...
00:42:47Because General Shelley recruited my help convincing the damn store
00:42:51to make one last run of the stuff for you.
00:42:53I, uh, I didn't know that.
00:42:56Don't worry about it.
00:42:57I did it half for you, and half out of spite.
00:43:01Someone who smelled like me kept Stella company the other night.
00:43:04And I need to know if that means what I think it means.
00:43:06I'm already checking the flight records.
00:43:09Ah, hell.
00:43:11He is here.
00:43:17Your cousin has been a hit bet in the past two years.
00:43:20And hasn't been to visit any monks.
00:43:23Not unless those monks were running a lot of drugs.
00:43:26Class 7 included.
00:43:27Damn it!
00:43:30I'm sorry, Aaron.
00:43:32I don't know why he didn't come up on the radar or the CSAT.
00:43:36I do.
00:43:41When my aunt and I were kids,
00:43:44when my aunt and uncle left the country,
00:43:46their names were flagged for watch.
00:43:48But I argued with Major General Shelley
00:43:50that Tyler was too young to have his name marked with theirs.
00:43:52So Tyler raised no alarms when he crossed the border.
00:43:56And now he could be the one who drugged Leah.
00:43:59Unconfirmed.
00:44:01But possible.
00:44:04Either way, the drugs were his.
00:44:07Yes.
00:44:14Wakey, wakey.
00:44:17Ah, there you are.
00:44:19Aaron probably never mentioned me.
00:44:21He and I go way back.
00:44:24And as I told you, Miss Moffat,
00:44:27I know all about you.
00:44:29I wonder,
00:44:31does Aaron still make Reuben do his dirty work
00:44:33and pretend like it was an accident?
00:44:37He always wants to be a hero.
00:44:39And pretend like it was an accident.
00:44:43He always was predictable like that.
00:44:45I reckon you're the same way.
00:44:48You know, he always did gravitate towards similar peas to his pod.
00:44:52And with a face like yours,
00:44:55gravitate indeed.
00:44:58Or so his type.
00:45:00But I bet he never mentioned that either.
00:45:02Propriety, am I right?
00:45:04Can't be seen taking advantage of the sad orphan
00:45:07in his upright, mature care.
00:45:09At least, that's the take Mamru's Estella has been hammering home.
00:45:13What a gold digger.
00:45:15I admire that in a bitch.
00:45:18Oh, stop your fretting.
00:45:20You're a hostage.
00:45:21You've got, oh,
00:45:23a 40% chance of making it out alive.
00:45:26Most players make their cliché play
00:45:29and sacrifice their pawns.
00:45:32But the patient ones
00:45:33leave them perfectly positioned on the board
00:45:36to take advantage of the other guy.
00:45:40And that's exactly what I'm going to do.
00:45:47Are you ready for your close-up?
00:46:07Come alone, or Miss Muffet won't survive the night.
00:46:13Now smile and say cheese.
00:46:29They're late.
00:46:31They're unprofessionally late.
00:46:33Makes a guy feel lonely, hmm?
00:46:36Oh right, you can't talk.
00:46:42Got anything to say?
00:46:44Who are you?
00:46:46Me?
00:46:47I'm the future general of Harold House.
00:46:50Never.
00:46:53That's what you get for being a small pea
00:46:55in your provincial little pod.
00:46:58And where have you been all this time?
00:47:00Provincial little pod.
00:47:02And where have you been?
00:47:04Getting coffee.
00:47:05We can get you an extra if you want.
00:47:07Get into your positions.
00:47:12Aaron!
00:47:17Let her go.
00:47:19I said if you came alone,
00:47:21you would see her alive.
00:47:23That doesn't mean I'm relinquishing
00:47:25bargaining chips at the start.
00:47:27Put him in the fun chair, boys.
00:47:31Do you want me to drop the search for you?
00:47:34For your drug ring?
00:47:36Wait, he's the-
00:47:38Yes, Miss Muffet.
00:47:39I know this one is shit at keeping you informed.
00:47:42But do try and keep up.
00:47:46You know, I want so much more.
00:47:49And you owe me so much more.
00:47:52I kept your name from being flagged.
00:47:55You kept mine!
00:47:56You turned me in!
00:47:57I turned your parents in.
00:47:59And me along with them.
00:48:01Oh, don't act so high and mighty about this now.
00:48:04You took my parents down that shithole.
00:48:06And you expect me to be grateful?
00:48:15Maybe I should thank you.
00:48:16After all, I did get to see the world because of you.
00:48:20Exile would do that to a kid.
00:48:22The jurisdiction of the law in these other countries
00:48:24is divided into little categories.
00:48:26They make their leaders
00:48:28earn every little last scrap of power.
00:48:31They can't even conceive of the absolute dominion
00:48:33that is the authority sector of Razul.
00:48:36And inheriting that kind of power?
00:48:38Passing it to a capable family member
00:48:41because you think you should trust family?
00:48:44Unthinkable.
00:48:46So Aaron here is just a little more worldly
00:48:48than everyone else, right?
00:48:51Go figure.
00:48:56Arggggg!
00:48:58Arggg!
00:49:00Arggg!
00:49:09Arggg!
00:49:10Arggg!
00:49:26Oh, she's got it in a bitch after me!
00:49:31You hurt her and you get nothing from me!
00:49:35And I know you want something from me.
00:49:37More than just my pain.
00:49:43You know what, Miss Muffet?
00:49:45You've officially gotten annoying.
00:49:51Erin and I are overdue for a private chat, and you have officially lost your fly-on-the-wall
00:49:58privileges.
00:49:59FYI, your personal hostage survival rate is dropping!
00:50:10You're insane!
00:50:16You're insane!
00:50:19That's what everyone says in the face of a diplomacian.
00:50:27Maybe I should go find her.
00:50:29No.
00:50:30This is a mother's duty.
00:50:35Affairs of the heart are complicated.
00:50:41Leah!
00:50:45Please, we can talk about that I was troubling you.
00:50:53Leah!
00:51:03Brandon!
00:51:05Please, please, please.
00:51:15Don't come any closer!
00:51:18I'm armed!
00:51:21Is that any way to greet your rescuer?
00:51:25Stop struggling, I don't want to cut you, okay?
00:51:28I'm not going anywhere without Erin.
00:51:30That's not an option.
00:51:31Whether you walk out on your own two feet, or I carry you out, it's up to you.
00:51:36Look, you are the hope of our people.
00:51:40It's my duty to protect you.
00:51:42I can't do that if you're off chasing gangsters and kidnappers without a plan.
00:51:46That doesn't matter.
00:51:47I can't just leave him here.
00:51:49Well, from what I know of Erin, he would not want you putting yourself in harm's way for
00:51:55his sake.
00:51:58Also, your mother is worried sick about you.
00:52:02She finally found her long lost daughter, the last living member of her family,
00:52:07in your kidnap moments after reuniting.
00:52:10Her worst nightmares are coming true.
00:52:13Fine.
00:52:14But I am coming back for Erin.
00:52:18I expect nothing less, your highness.
00:52:28Oh.
00:52:34Someone's looking a little less lost.
00:52:37You want me to abdicate his major journal in my house?
00:52:41And?
00:52:44And you want me to hand it over to you.
00:52:47See?
00:52:48Was that so hard?
00:52:51I am so sorry we couldn't get to you sooner, but since your father died, my contacts in
00:52:57Jerusalem have become scattered and limited.
00:52:59I'll be fine.
00:53:00But we need to-
00:53:01Oh, thankfully I still have a few people I can trust.
00:53:04You've already met my driver, Alexi, and my valet, Ivan, and my dog, Walker Boris.
00:53:12And of course, Sir Brendan remains a most loyal and dedicated son of Lysagor.
00:53:17Mm-hmm.
00:53:18Oh.
00:53:19It's my honor to serve.
00:53:22Unfortunately, I'm just one man.
00:53:25Okay, enough.
00:53:26I can't sit here while Erin is in danger.
00:53:28Now, are you going to help me or not?
00:53:33It's going to take time.
00:53:36We don't have time.
00:53:38Erin is always there for me, and now he needs me.
00:53:41I have to go.
00:53:43Of course, I wouldn't think of standing in your way, but the fact remains, I have no
00:53:49more resources to give you.
00:53:52You have given me all I need.
00:53:55I have my own resources now.
00:53:59Reuben?
00:54:03You are my last blood relative, so I could install you, but no other Major General is
00:54:08going to want to cooperate with you.
00:54:10Oh, I've got plans for that.
00:54:12I've got quite good at making plans.
00:54:14How do you like my little empire, by the way?
00:54:17It's a drug ring.
00:54:18It's the start of a kingdom, and one that would run much smoother if it wasn't forced
00:54:23to operate in the shadows.
00:54:25Doubling as local Major General could make that happen.
00:54:29And I intend to use the damn position to make a lot of things happen.
00:54:35Unlike you, sitting on your arse while your underlings do their sad little attempts at
00:54:41a bust.
00:54:42Or should I say, topping up.
00:54:45What?
00:54:46Oh yes, guys.
00:54:47I do know your dirtiest little secret.
00:54:51I should.
00:54:53I helped make it happen.
00:55:04You son of a bitch!
00:55:06Our mothers are not fair game, Eren.
00:55:09You set that rule when we were eight, remember?
00:55:13It was you.
00:55:15It was Stella, but yes, it was me too.
00:55:20And it was a lot of fun to watch.
00:55:23General Shelley's daughter exploited the whole aftermath.
00:55:27I just kept tabs.
00:55:30And you defended Stella, didn't you?
00:55:32Dutiful as ever.
00:55:34Of course you did.
00:55:36Ha!
00:55:37Damn!
00:55:38But if I could be a fly on that wall, watching you tell the girl who's in love with you that
00:55:44she has to take that bitch's shit.
00:55:47And after, you sought her out for the most vital ride of her life.
00:55:54Leia's not in love with me.
00:55:56Oh, you always were dense about the suffering of others.
00:56:03That's okay.
00:56:05I'm gonna help you walk a mile in her shoes.
00:56:11I'm gonna help you walk a mile in her shoes.
00:56:17I'm gonna help you walk a mile in her shoes.
00:56:23Yeah.
00:56:24Yeah.
00:56:25Go again.
00:56:26No, no.
00:56:27Ah!
00:56:28Open up.
00:56:29Ah!
00:56:30She's on you.
00:56:31Ah!
00:56:34Ah!
00:56:35Ah!
00:56:39Ah!
00:56:40Go to hell!
00:56:42If I bother, I intend to rule there too.
00:56:45You know, your little miss had me worried for a moment, that I'd brought a bad badge
00:56:51across the border with me.
00:56:53She seemed to take forever to experience the side effects.
00:56:56Luckily, she was a fluke.
00:57:06Cut him loose, boys.
00:57:15Son of a...
00:57:38Freeze!
00:57:40Should we fight them?
00:57:46Are we being paid enough to fight them?
00:57:48No.
00:58:05Eren!
00:58:06Eren, talk to me.
00:58:07Leia!
00:58:08Safe.
00:58:09She's safe, man.
00:58:17Come on, let's get you moved.
00:58:24Patience.
00:58:25Patience?
00:58:26Eren could be in there dying, and we're just sitting here watching and waiting.
00:58:30I feel utterly useless.
00:58:32By watching, we keep our people from being surrounded.
00:58:35Besides, you're the one who decided to call in Reuben.
00:58:38You agreed to follow his orders.
00:58:40Wait, I think I see something.
00:58:42Over there.
00:58:43I can't be certain, but it kind of looks like...
00:58:46Ty...
00:58:50What was that for?
00:58:51Shh!
00:58:52Get down.
00:58:53You don't want him to see us.
00:58:54But we can't let that bastard get away!
00:58:58I'm not.
00:59:00You're staying here where it's safe.
00:59:03Fine, but I'm doing this under protest.
00:59:06Protest noted.
00:59:08Now, stay here.
00:59:1597, 98, 99, 100.
00:59:32Eren!
00:59:33Thank God!
00:59:34My skin is hypersensitive right now.
00:59:36And it's only going to get worse.
00:59:38I'm doing what I can to fix the wounds right now.
00:59:41Eren?
00:59:46You shouldn't have come!
00:59:49Sweet girl.
00:59:50He's not making any sense.
00:59:51What's going on?
00:59:54I think you know.
00:59:57Mesmer.
01:00:00Eren doesn't have any special antibodies.
01:00:02That is correct.
01:00:04So, what do we do?
01:00:06How can we...
01:00:07There's no cure.
01:00:08We can only mitigate symptoms.
01:00:09How?
01:00:11I think you know that too.
01:00:18I think you know that too.
01:00:23Is there somebody we should call?
01:00:25You.
01:00:28I want it to be you.
01:00:31Only you.
01:00:32Okay.
01:00:34Let's clear you guys out of this room.
01:00:41What?
01:01:02Eren!

01:03:56Princess, should I be worried?
01:03:59It's a long story.
01:04:00I'll tell you about it when we get home.
01:04:02Okay.
01:04:03But before there's any other misunderstandings,
01:04:05I want to make something clear.
01:04:07About what?
01:04:08Leah?
01:04:10I love you.
01:04:13I know that might seem sudden,
01:04:15but it's not.
01:04:17Look, over everything we've been through the last few weeks,
01:04:20I just...
01:04:21I just want to ensure that there are not any misunderstandings.
01:04:26I'm so in love with you.
01:04:30And I have been.
01:04:31For a long time.
01:04:32I want you to know.
01:04:38I want everyone to know that.
01:04:41Leah, please say something.
01:04:45I love you.
01:04:50I love you too.
01:04:53In that case, shall we let the world know?
01:05:05Leah Jenkins, will you marry me?
01:05:08Yes!
01:05:09Yes!
01:05:10Oh my god, yes!
01:05:23Hi General, I didn't realize I'd be seeing you in person today.
01:05:44The situation called for, Lieutenant.
01:05:46You and the Major General have cause to be proud.
01:05:48Thank you, sir.
01:05:53Major General Aaron Harrell, I am here on behalf of Ruatzil itself to congratulate you
01:05:58on completing your mission and ensuring the safety of our people.
01:06:02The honor is mine, High General Shane.
01:06:03When you first undertook this task, I conferred with my fellow elders.
01:06:08We had faith in your success and thus already had in mind the next mission that we wish
01:06:12to offer you.
01:06:18We have an undercover mission overseas.
01:06:22We need someone who is truly capable to investigate a colony in Ithbek.
01:06:26High General, I thank you.
01:06:30I do, but I already know I cannot accept.
01:06:34You can't?
01:06:38An undercover mission to Ithbek would interfere with planning my wedding.
01:06:44You're...
01:06:45Oh, I see.
01:06:49The utmost congratulations to you, Major General.
01:06:52May you both flourish.
01:06:54Gonna have to sucker someone else into it, I suppose.
