Short filmTranscript
00:00:29When I was
00:00:29seven, I had no memory of being six. It didn't matter. My parents adopted me because
00:00:37they loved me. And Aaron? Aaron took me in because he cared. But even then, I didn't know
00:00:48how much. As I carried him, so he would carry me through so much. This is only where it
00:00:57begins. Yeah? Hi, Aaron. Where have you been? Where have you been? Getting shot in all sorts
00:01:05of weird places. I've been installed as Major General in my house. I'm an authority sector
00:01:14now. Sometimes that means taking some hits. Well, I would say congratulations, but I know
00:01:21you only probably got the position early because your father's health failed. Yeah, he's gone.
00:01:29Lester heard your parents were dead too. And your aunt and uncle overtaking you. Well, since
00:01:35I'm adopted, my aunt and uncle didn't even see me as my parents' kid, so... Come home with
00:01:39me. What? Going from friends to being family isn't that weird of a leap, right? Okay.
00:01:59Lila, I'm sorry I'm late. I was turning in my paper. You'll just have to catch up with
00:02:03us. Hey, this is my new best friend as of yesterday, T. New bestie, this is Leah. When was the
00:02:11last
00:02:11time I saw you? Uh, a few months ago, at your father's funeral. I'm so sorry. Don't worry
00:02:18about it. I'm over it. But he's your dad. Was my dad. You understand. When you work for
00:02:25the authority sector, you have no time for family. Well, Aaron has plenty of time for... Aaron.
00:02:32Aaron. Aaron. Aaron. Enough about Aaron. Don't talk to me about him. He has no time for
00:02:38me. Calm down, Benzo. I've got just the thing you eat. Oh. Uh, none for me. Thanks. Brendan.
00:02:53Hi. Leah. Nancy's seeing you outside the classroom again. You're not spying on me, are you?
00:03:01No, I'm not. I promise. And I did do my paper on the Civil War and Lisa Gore before I
00:03:08arrived. Great. And I'm looking forward to reading what you know about my mother country.
00:03:24So, who's the hottie? Your boyfriend? Oh, that's just Brendan. He's the TA for my Modern Conflicts
00:03:31class. Oh, I think he likes you. You should show him your appreciation for all his hard work.
00:03:37Stella. Here's to being appreciated for all our hard work.
00:03:52Um, will you excuse me? I just need to go to the restroom.
00:03:57The restroom. Mm-hmm. The restroom. Right. Have fun.
00:04:31What's the situation report?
00:04:34We've traced the distribution of their new designer drug to this club. We were able to
00:04:39get a sample of it, and the lab boffins determined there are markers in the chemical composition
00:04:43which determine it's a class 7. Dammit! What can you tell me about this mesmer?
00:04:49It's fast-acting, and it was originally developed as a date-rape drug.
00:05:02It raises libido, lowers inhibition, causes memory loss, and induces a potentially fatal
00:05:08brain fever in the victim. It also increases the sensitivity of the nerve receptors, causing
00:05:13intense sensations of pain and pleasure.
00:05:34So how does it work?
00:05:36You can't tell what's wrong at first. After all, starving is very different from just being
00:05:44a little hungry. And if you suddenly become a bottomless little pit of need, you might just
00:05:52jump anything with a pulse to see if it fills you.
00:05:58So pretty.
00:06:00We need a doctor!
00:06:01If this is what I think it is, a doctor can't help her.
00:06:05What is it?
00:06:07Mesmer.
00:06:08Are you certain?
00:06:10As certain as I can be, without a blood test.
00:06:14Alright. You said the drug causes a potentially fatal brain fever? Look, if a doctor can't
00:06:20help her, then who can? What's the cure?
00:06:23There is no cure. No antidote. We can only mitigate these symptoms.
00:06:29Mitigate how?
00:06:32The only known treatment is skin contact. Lots of skin contact.
00:06:41I don't know if she's seeing anyone. We haven't talked about her love life in over
00:06:45a year. I have a suggestion.
00:06:49Look, it can't just be anyone. She's too precious. It has to be someone that she loves.
00:06:56No. I want it to be you. Only you.
00:07:08Are you certain?
00:07:11Help me.
00:07:13Do you know what this means?
00:07:15Yes.
00:07:20I'll be outside if you need it.
00:07:54I'm bored.
00:07:59Don't worry. I've got just the thing. This has all the benefits and none of the drawbacks.
00:08:06I'll even throw it in for free.
00:08:08Hmm.
00:08:14Uhhhhhh.
00:08:29You smell just like him.
00:08:33I've got places to go, but I do have a couple of friends who are more than willing to help
00:08:37you out. For price.
00:08:40Friends.
00:08:41Plural.
00:08:43Yes, please.
00:08:51It was a pleasure doing business with you.
00:09:09Everyone freeze! Authority sector is securing the area!
00:09:21Last night, the authority sector proceeded with a drug bust at a bar in the East End.
00:09:25Your excuse, Gary.
00:09:26They report that while their seizure of the drugs was successful, the leader of the ring remains at large.
00:09:32His true name still a mystery.
00:09:34One of the people arrested at the scene is the daughter of a recently fallen major general.
00:09:39University student Stella Shelley remains held for questioning.
00:09:45What?
00:09:46How dare they, Gary?
00:09:50Aaron better not have anything to do with this.
00:09:56I'm afraid that Major General Aaron Harold was in charge of the raid, Mom.
00:10:01It appears that Miss Stella is being held in the same facility as last time.
00:10:05Call the lawyers.
00:10:09Yeah, thanks for the update.
00:10:11And send Leah my love, uh, let her know. I will call and check on her later.
00:10:28Mrs. Shelley, what may I do for you?
00:10:31You can begin by explaining why you had my daughter arrested.
00:10:34Especially after you promised my husband that you'd take care of us.
00:10:38You know I can't comment on ongoing authority sector investigations.
00:10:42At the time of the arrest, I was unaware of Stella's presence at the site.
00:10:46Be that as it may, you could have done something to prevent her name from being released to the press.
00:10:52Do you know how I felt hearing about my daughter's arrest?
00:10:55Like she was a common criminal?
00:10:57It was an embarrassment.
00:10:58I'm sure it isn't Aaron's fault.
00:11:02I know.
00:11:03I put myself in a vulnerable situation.
00:11:08Sometimes, I just get so upset about Eddie's death.
00:11:11I just...
00:11:13I miss him so much.
00:11:16See what I can do.
00:11:19Very well then.
00:11:20In the meantime, you must come to lunch at our place.
00:11:23Just to show we've put this shameful business behind us.
00:11:26Certainly.
00:11:41What happened?
00:11:43You were right, Ms. Jenkins.
00:11:45You had a very harsh encounter with a class 7 drug.
00:11:48We just got the blood test result back.
00:11:51When we got the result back, we also found some antibodies that's fighting the after effect of the drug.
00:12:04Lucky new.
00:12:05Lucky?
00:12:06Yes.
00:12:09Most people would need to be held for observation for weeks, but you're almost good as new.
00:12:13I am?
00:12:14Yes.
00:12:15I actually did a paper on this condition back in school.
00:12:18There's no groups of people that can shake off this drug very quickly.
00:12:22There's the monks of Ithbac, the old ostocracy of Lissagor, and the nudists calling it.
00:12:28If you're done with your examination, I'll sit the two of you out.
00:12:34Anything for the Major General.
00:12:40So, what really happened?
00:12:48So, what really happened?
00:12:52Aaron treated you.
00:12:53Then he carried you home, and he delegated the mission to me.
00:12:57I finished the bus.
00:12:58Okay, I remember going to find you guys, and I remember asking him something, but I want to know what
00:13:06-
00:13:06We seized the contraband, but we failed to ID the ringleader.
00:13:11We know he got away-
00:13:13Wasn't what I was asking!
00:13:15I mean, it was, but it's not what I want to know first.
00:13:20I know.
00:13:22But you were in trouble, and we were short on time.
00:13:27Aaron did what he had to do.
00:13:29Hey, we never have to talk about this again.
00:13:36Don't we?
00:13:52Mom, what are you doing?
00:13:54I wanted to talk to you after class.
00:13:55What, so you can criticize me about how I'm not taking my studies seriously enough?
00:13:59Yeah, no thanks.
00:14:00You actually made some good points in your paper.
00:14:02You just, you didn't go far enough.
00:14:03You didn't cover half the required topics, and between that and the grammar, I just couldn't give you a better
00:14:08grade.
00:14:08Professor Olsen hasn't looked at the grades yet.
00:14:10I could temporarily lose your paper for a couple of days and give you the opportunity to rewrite it.
00:14:17Really? Thank you so much!
00:14:20I'm gonna get started right away.
00:14:25Hey!
00:14:27Tough teachers are a bummer.
00:14:29Oh, that, that was entirely my fault.
00:14:32Oh, really?
00:14:33Well, Aaron recently helped me out with a difficult situation.
00:14:37It's just a pity that he can't even exert a little influence to help you when some professor is giving
00:14:42you a hard time.
00:14:43It's not fair.
00:14:45But you know, it strikes me, I don't know you as well as I ought.
00:14:50After all, you are Aaron's family, and who knows what the future holds.
00:14:56So, in order for bygones to be bygones, I got you a gift.
00:15:00Oh, there's no need.
00:15:02I don't have it with me now, but how about I stop by Aaron's house and say an hour?
00:15:07Honestly, we're good.
00:15:10So ungrateful.
00:15:13Stuck up bitch.
00:15:19How's two or three sound?
00:15:22Perfect.
00:15:40Clia!
00:15:41It's so good of you to wait for me.
00:15:43I didn't think you were still coming.
00:15:45I would never break my word.
00:15:57Oh, poor thing.
00:15:59It appears my gift is more needed than I thought.
00:16:05Uh, thank you.
00:16:07I'm sorry.
00:16:08I really think you should go.
00:16:09I've got some homework to get back to.
00:16:10Oh, don't be ridiculous.
00:16:12I want to see how it fits.
00:16:27Aaron!
00:16:28Stella, didn't expect to see you here.
00:16:31I hope we're still on for lunch tomorrow.
00:16:33Yeah, that's fine.
00:16:34Awesome.
00:16:35We'll be all so excited to see you.
00:16:38Oh my god, what'd you do to it?
00:16:40No, it was already like this.
00:16:42I just came out to show you.
00:16:43If you didn't like it, you could just say so.
00:16:45Or just accept it and not wear it.
00:16:48I'm gonna sleep.
00:16:49What?
00:16:49No, I...
00:16:50Excuse me.
00:16:55I thought Leah and I could take a date of bond.
00:16:57After all, she and I both went through something so terrible.
00:17:02But it's like...
00:17:03Like she blames me or something, you know?
00:17:08But you would know better than that.
00:17:10Don't you, Aaron?
00:17:11Leah makes mistakes like anyone else.
00:17:13Please ask that you give her the benefit of the doubt.
00:17:16And you're gonna tell her the same thing?
00:17:17Yes.
00:17:22Sorry, I have to go.
00:17:24We'll talk later.
00:17:33Yeah, um...
00:17:35We're just gonna go...
00:17:36Go do the thing.
00:17:38Yeah, because we had a thing to do later.
00:17:41And now it's later.
00:17:51I know I was short with you at my dad's funeral.
00:17:54It's okay.
00:17:57It's not.
00:17:57Daddy loved Aaron.
00:17:59He always knew that he would become part of the family one day.
00:18:02I just didn't think he'd die before he got the chance to see it happen.
00:18:06And I understand that Aaron needs some time to grieve before he and I can really become an us.
00:18:13You and Aaron?
00:18:15Look, I get it.
00:18:17More than you know.
00:18:18He's taken such good care of you.
00:18:21And he's strong.
00:18:23Powerful.
00:18:24Not to mention his...
00:18:26Everything.
00:18:27What are you talking about?
00:18:28For some of us, it's a babysitter.
00:18:31For others, it's a teacher.
00:18:32Or your mom's boy toy.
00:18:34The point is that we've all had inappropriate relationships.
00:18:38Inappropriate?
00:18:39I know I'm not that much older than you, so it can seem a little weird, but I can keep
00:18:44a secret.
00:18:45I'm here to support you because you are Aaron's family.
00:18:48And I think he's gonna miss you once you're gone.
00:18:55When I'm...what?
00:19:02Gone.
00:19:03At least, I assume you'll be able to go.
00:19:06That's every goal for a serious university student, right?
00:19:10Go out in the world and work your own field.
00:19:13Yeah, I mean, I don't have any post-graduation plans yet.
00:19:17Okay.
00:19:19Well, my bad.
00:19:21I thought that V was a fluke.
00:19:23I just know that striking out on your own can be really important.
00:19:26And you're gonna need distance.
00:19:29Especially if Aaron encouraged you.
00:19:32Oh, no. He's not hurt.
00:19:35I didn't mean to imply that.
00:19:36No, of course not.
00:19:38He's Aaron.
00:19:39Yeah, right. No, I mean, he's always been like a, you know...
00:19:43Breathe. It's okay.
00:19:46Like a brother. I know.
00:19:48And, like, don't worry about the dress.
00:19:51I was mad about it before, but I'm not anymore.
00:19:55No.
00:20:01No, not anymore.
00:20:02No.
00:20:04No.
00:20:05No.
00:20:05No.
00:20:08No.
00:20:08No.
00:20:09No.
00:20:22Is there something I should know about the lunch with you and Stella tomorrow?
00:20:26Uh, Mrs. Shelley invited me.
00:20:29She wasn't particularly happy about Stella's arrest, but I think the lunch is a chance to talk some things over.
00:20:34Well, her arrest was like five minutes long.
00:20:39This is Major General Shelley's family, Leia.
00:20:44He was dying when he asked me to take care of them.
00:20:47Going to lunch?
00:20:49That's like the least I can do.
00:20:50No, yeah, I know that.
00:20:53But I also know that Stella was one of the last people I talked to before I started to feel
00:20:59that drug.
00:21:00But here's to being appreciated for all our hard work.
00:21:12Do you think she did it?
00:21:13I think it's possible.
00:21:15Are you certain?
00:21:16No.
00:21:20You weren't the only one under the influence of something that night.
00:21:23So was Stella.
00:21:25Well, granted, she might have taken it herself, and I can understand why she might not want to admit that,
00:21:31but she's not our primary suspect.
00:21:34Who is?
00:21:36That TA who's been following you around.
00:21:39Brendan Martin.
00:21:42What?
00:21:43Brendan?
00:21:46Brendan?
00:21:47Are you serious?
00:21:49Yeah.
00:21:51Take a look.
00:21:53Security footage has him at the scene right before the raid.
00:21:56Look, he's exiting, he's handling a lot of people's drinks, and then he talks to you fairly a minute before
00:22:03you came to me.
00:22:05Brendan's not a criminal.
00:22:06His documentation has a lot of holes in it, Leia.
00:22:09Okay, well, that's what happens when you're a refugee from another country.
00:22:12Aren't you the one who told me that?
00:22:14Yes, but that's also what happens when you're a spy.
00:22:17Or, or, when you work for the biggest drug ring in Brazil.
00:22:21He does not work for a drug ring, and he wouldn't hurt me.
00:22:24How do you know that?
00:22:25Because he's my friend.
00:22:30I don't agree with you about Brendan, but I know you always have my best interests at heart, so.
00:22:37Always.
00:22:38I don't like when we fight like this.
00:22:41Me neither.
00:22:43Hey, do you remember when we used to have movie nights?
00:22:46Yeah, you hogged all the popcorn?
00:22:48I did not!
00:22:49But, I will make the popcorn if you choose the movie.
00:23:02Stella, pour me some tea.
00:23:04Why?
00:23:05Gary has the day off.
00:23:07Also, hand me the report behind you.
00:23:14Now, Aaron, I'm glad you've taken the steps to make things right with Stella in the authority sector business the
00:23:21other day.
00:23:22Mrs. Shelley, I'm really sorry about...
00:23:24You're sorry for our loss.
00:23:25Yes, I know.
00:23:27And you miss my husband, too.
00:23:30Joseph was always a workaholic.
00:23:33So, as a fellow Major General, you knew him better than any of us.
00:23:36There's anything that I can do?
00:23:37Oh, there is.
00:23:40You promised to take care of Stella and to look after our family.
00:23:43Yes.
00:23:44I intend for you to honor that promise.
00:23:47Especially since you slept with my daughter shortly before arresting her.
00:23:52What?
00:23:52Be quiet, Stella.
00:23:54Mrs. Shelley, I did not.
00:23:56I know a man of your position can never admit to such a thing out loud.
00:23:59But let us be clear on what I do know.
00:24:02Stella was quite loose-lipped when I picked her up from the facility.
00:24:05She smelled of, well, certain liberties.
00:24:09And she kept sniffing at her sleeves.
00:24:11When I asked, she babbled on about a wild night.
00:24:15And still having the smell of your cologne on her clothes.
00:24:19I know my daughter might not be so forthcoming at the moment.
00:24:22But she was in no shape to lie to me then.
00:24:25So, by all means, deny what you must.
00:24:29Just so long as you make good on your promises.
00:24:37Come in.
00:24:39Here's my paper.
00:24:41Thank you for the second chance.
00:24:43Yeah.
00:24:43Have a seat.
00:24:45It looks better already.
00:24:47Did you learn anything interesting about Lisbon?
00:24:50It's like our professor said in class.
00:24:52There are always multiple reasons for conflict.
00:24:55But I just feel bad for the royal family.
00:24:58How so?
00:24:59It seems like they were governing responsibly.
00:25:02And then out of nowhere, bam.
00:25:03Civil war.
00:25:05They disappear.
00:25:08Wait.
00:25:09Wait.
00:25:10Um.
00:25:11Do you have any memories from before you were adopted?
00:25:14Who told you I was adopted?
00:25:16I...
00:25:16I can't really explain.
00:25:18Not here.
00:25:19It's not secure enough.
00:25:20I can show you.
00:25:21Come with me.
00:25:22Please.
00:25:23I'm not going anywhere with you.
00:25:27Leah, it's...
00:25:29It's important.
00:25:31Please.
00:25:32I don't mean you any harm.
00:25:34I just...
00:25:35Really need you to trust me.
00:25:39Please.
00:25:40Fine.
00:25:41But I'm not going to some secondary location with you.
00:25:44You can come to my house.

00:29:04Yes, Mama.
00:29:16What is it?
00:29:17Please come meet with me.
00:29:18It's urgent.
00:29:20I told you, I need time.
00:29:23I know, but there isn't any more time.
00:29:25I need you to meet me at the airport lot.
00:29:27I'm not going to leave the country with you.
00:29:30It's nothing like that.
00:29:32I need your help to welcome someone.
00:29:34Please.
00:29:35It's important.
00:29:46I need sleep.
00:29:47Meet me in the morning, then.
00:29:49The flight arrives in four hours.
00:29:51You have time for three more hours of rest.
00:29:53I have a headache.
00:29:55You can earn extra credit for the class.
00:29:57I'm fine.
00:30:07Leah.
00:30:20Leah.
00:30:23Leah?
00:30:26Leah?
00:30:31Oh my god.
00:30:35She's fine.
00:30:36She got up early to go run an errand.
00:30:40Did she say what kind of errand it was?
00:30:41No.
00:30:43Okay.
00:30:51Okay. Okay. Okay.
00:30:54Okay.
00:30:59Man, please tell me we have something on my damn cousin and that damn drug ring.
00:31:03Afraid not, boss.
00:31:05However,
00:31:07we did find something interesting
00:31:09regarding something else entirely.
00:31:20I'm not committing to anything.
00:31:23You know, for all I know,
00:31:24they're just weird dreams.
00:31:26Do you want to tell me about your dreams?
00:31:28When we were kids, did we used to play together?
00:31:38And you had a pet frog named Mortimer.
00:31:42All my dreams are real.
00:31:44Do you have any other memories?
00:31:48Maybe...
00:31:48of your family?
00:31:50Yes, Mama.
00:31:50Just a soft voice.
00:31:54Reminders to sit up straight.
00:31:56Rule wisely.
00:31:58That's right.
00:31:59You're a princess, Leah.
00:32:00A princess?
00:32:03It can't be.
00:32:04There are tests that can prove it.
00:32:06The easiest is to look for specific antibodies
00:32:09which can be traced back to the blood of the Lizagor family.
00:32:13There's no groups of people that can shake off this drug very quickly.
00:32:16I'm immune to the after effects of class 7 drugs.
00:32:21Are you certain?
00:32:23Help me.
00:32:26Still processing?
00:32:27Understatement.
00:32:35You've been waiting a long time to do that.
00:32:37Waiting a long time for it to mean something.
00:32:38Who are we meeting?
00:32:40Lady Tiffany Altiman.
00:32:41Queen of Lizagor.
00:32:44Your mother.
00:32:45Mama.
00:32:46Leah.
00:32:48Your majesty.
00:32:49Your highness.
00:32:50We ought to move somewhere more private.
00:32:57Excuse me.
00:33:01I suppose you were too young to remember what Lizagor was like before you left.
00:33:06Um.
00:33:07I lost my memories in an accident when I was seven.
00:33:11Oh.
00:33:11There was a coup following a bloody civil war.
00:33:15Your father and I, we feared for your safety.
00:33:18We sent you out of the country ahead of the rest of the family.
00:33:22But word of your escape got to our enemies.
00:33:26And they sabotaged your route.
00:33:29That's when we got the news that you had died.
00:33:37Once Lady Tiffany and Lord Edmund were trapped in the country as political prisoners, no other allies could contact them.
00:33:43Uh.
00:33:44Lord Edmund?
00:33:44Your father.
00:33:46Your father.
00:33:47He was a good man.
00:33:48And a brave one.
00:33:49He loved you very much.
00:33:53What happened to him?
00:33:54He died in prison.
00:33:55Two years ago I was able to find Lady Tiffany and tell her the news.
00:34:00News?
00:34:02I found the lost princess.
00:34:04Oh shhh.
00:34:05Shhh.
00:34:05Darling.
00:34:07We can be a family from Smaar.
00:34:09No.
00:34:10No.
00:34:10I have a family.
00:34:11Aaron.
00:34:12Yes of course.
00:34:13The Jenkins.
00:34:14We will never forget the Jenkins.
00:34:16No.
00:34:16Aaron.
00:34:17He needs to know.
00:34:18Who?
00:34:20Aaron Harold.
00:34:21He took Lady in after the Jenkins died.
00:34:25He's quite protective of it.
00:34:28Oh of course.
00:34:29We will show our gratitude on him as well.
00:34:31He won't have to worry about you anymore.
00:34:34Oh your fiancé is more than capable of protecting you.
00:34:38My what?
00:34:40Your fiancé.
00:34:43Sir Brendan of course.
00:34:47No.
00:34:49Oh.
00:34:53I thought for sure you would have told her that.
00:34:57I was getting to it.
00:34:59Brendan.
00:35:01My defense your majesty.
00:35:03You arranged your flight ahead of schedule.
00:35:05What is this supposed to do?
00:35:06It is one of our oldest traditions for the heir of the crown.
00:35:10To marry a friend born into the espionage sector.
00:35:14The curriculum of this place is a bit lacking.
00:35:18I'm afraid.
00:35:18It makes it difficult to bring it up naturally.
00:35:32I'm sorry.
00:35:34I'm sorry.
00:35:36I'm sorry.
00:35:37Do you wish to find yourself pregnant and destitute in a West End back alley?
00:35:41Just because I can't get a major general to marry you right away.
00:35:44It doesn't mean that nobody would at all.
00:35:47I guarantee every woman trapped in that back alley told herself the same thing.
00:35:51No excuses Stella.
00:35:54I've just got to take care of that for you at first.
00:35:57I've got a plan to show her that I need business.
00:35:59You should already be on the next step.
00:36:02I'm working on Aaron okay?
00:36:04Is this going to take-
00:36:05The mother!
00:36:06Stella.
00:36:08You will say goodbye to your mother properly young lady.
00:36:13Oh.
00:36:14It's going to look great.
00:36:16You like that?
00:36:17Oh that's nice.
00:36:19That's nice.
00:36:26Damn.
00:36:28I'm forgetting something.
00:36:30Forgetting something.
00:36:33You idiot.
00:36:35I was the one who hired you.
00:36:37You got the wrong girl.
00:36:39Oh man.
00:36:42You know that's really rich.
00:36:43That's a good one.
00:36:45I've never heard that before.
00:36:46That's cute even.
00:36:48I was not-
00:36:48Listen.
00:36:49I got my marching orders missy.
00:36:51I'm here to grab Stella Shelly.
00:36:56And that is 100% you.
00:37:00I gave you this damn assignment.
00:37:02Pick up target.
00:37:04Transport gagged in car.
00:37:06Tie up in public space.
00:37:08Beat breadcrumbs.
00:37:09And dress up with humiliating message.
00:37:13Oh my god.
00:37:16I did not mean breadcrumbs literally.
00:37:19A.
00:37:20You just described our whole morning.
00:37:22So that means nothing to me.
00:37:24Okay?
00:37:25And B.
00:37:25I ain't getting paid to be creative.
00:37:27Overpriced tax.
00:37:31Why do young people gotta take things so personally?
00:37:35Last step.
00:37:38Humiliating message.
00:37:40Hmm.
00:37:45My fiance is a major general.
00:37:48And once he hears about this.
00:37:49You are done!
00:37:53Oh.
00:37:54I'm scared.
00:37:56Let's do it.
00:37:59Get this off of me.
00:38:01No.
00:38:06You may recall a black market site we were researching a few months back?
00:38:10A henchman for hire?
00:38:12Still can't believe they went with that name.
00:38:15It's accurate.
00:38:22One of our guys cracked the encryption on one of their servers.
00:38:25Finally.
00:38:26We do have to move quickly.
00:38:28They have a rather disturbing policy when it comes to compromised accounts.
00:38:33It's automation is finicky.
00:38:36Can we hack it?
00:38:37Maybe.
00:38:38But I'd rather we handle this one personally.
00:38:40There's some prominent people who've been using their services.
00:38:48I'd ask you if you're sure about this.
00:38:51But it's already in progress.
00:38:52Yes.
00:38:54I'm sure.
00:38:55And I'm not sorry.
00:39:01Somebody help me please!
00:39:03Oh my god, Aaron.
00:39:05I'm so glad to see you.
00:39:10I'm so glad to see you.
00:39:13You have to get the guy who did this to me.
00:39:16You have to arrest him.
00:39:19Aaron.
00:39:21Aaron, are you hearing me?
00:39:24Oh, I hear you.
00:39:26And I will.
00:39:29Do you know what happens when henchmen for hire servers detect authority sector tampering with a client's accounts?
00:39:35No.
00:39:36How would I know if-
00:39:37They flag the potentially compromised client's accounts.
00:39:41And flag them for death.
00:39:43I don't see how this is relevant to me, Aaron.
00:39:47Ruben cut the funding to your accounts before he realized.
00:39:50Ruben's a liar.
00:39:52Stop!
00:39:54Ruben has never lied to me.
00:39:57And he never will.
00:39:59And besides, you're missing the point.
00:40:03What's the point?
00:40:04This was originally going to be an assassination attempt.
00:40:07Stop!
00:40:08So don't you dare say that I didn't protect you.
00:40:14Don't you ever say that I didn't protect you.
00:40:17I'm not feeling very protected at the moment considering I'm still here.
00:40:20And the guy who did this to me is still out there.
00:40:25We found a way to redirect the system.
00:40:27Got it to select the most recent assignment that you had assigned to it instead.
00:40:32That-
00:40:33That is not-
00:40:35Is it justice?
00:40:35I think it is.
00:40:37I think watching what you had planned for Leah done to you.
00:40:42I think that's beyond justice.
00:40:45I think that's mercy.
00:40:48And this is the final mercy that you or your family will ever get from me.
00:41:05Let's try this one more time.
00:41:06Huh?
00:41:35Christina.
00:41:47Princess?
00:41:51I don't see it.
00:42:01I should tell Eren.
00:42:03He'll know what to do.
00:42:06You'll tell Eren nothing.
00:42:14With the relaxation of the Empire's border laws,
00:42:18Lizagor's queen in exile has announced her intention to visit Razil.
00:42:22The exact day and purpose is to raise you.
00:42:26I'm still on stakeout.
00:42:28No leads yet.
00:42:29Do you remember the cologne incident from seven years ago?
00:42:31The one involving your cousin?
00:42:33On your mother's side?
00:42:35Tyler, yes.
00:42:36Hard to forget.
00:42:37I was grateful he got kicked out before Leah had to meet him.
00:42:40Are you sure that I got the last crate?
00:42:42Eren, when that petty little shit learned you how to favorite anything,
00:42:46he wanted it for himself.
00:42:48But I'm not going to forget that he bought every last bottle of that cologne.
00:42:54Because General Shelley recruited my help convincing the damn store
00:42:58to make one last run of the stuff for you.
00:43:00I, uh, I didn't know that.
00:43:02Don't worry about it.
00:43:04I did it half for you and half out of spite.
00:43:08Someone who smelled like me kept Stella company the other night.
00:43:11And I need to know if that means what I think of me.
00:43:13I'm already checking the flight records.
00:43:16Oh, hell.
00:43:18He is here.
00:43:27Your cousin has been an infective the past two years
00:43:31and hasn't been to visit any monks.
00:43:33Not unless those monks were running a lot of drugs.
00:43:37Class 7 included.
00:43:38Damn it!
00:43:41I'm sorry, Eren.
00:43:43I don't know why he didn't come up on the radar or the CSAT.
00:43:46I do.
00:43:52When my aunt and uncle left the country, their names were flagged for watch.
00:43:56But I argued with Major General Shelley that Tyler was too young to have his name marked with theirs.
00:44:00So Tyler raised no alarms when he crossed the border.
00:44:03And now he could be the one who drugged Leo.
00:44:07Unconfirmed.
00:44:08But possible.
00:44:11Either way, the drugs were his.
00:44:15Yes.
00:44:27Wakey wakey.
00:44:30Ah, there you are.
00:44:32Eren probably never mentioned me.
00:44:34He and I go way back.
00:44:36And as I told you, Miss Moffat,
00:44:39I know all about you.
00:44:42I wonder,
00:44:43does Eren still make Ruben do his dirty work and pretend like it was an accident?
00:44:49He always was predictable like that.
00:44:52I reckon you're the same way.
00:44:55You know, he always did gravitate towards similar P's to his pod.
00:44:59And with a face like yours,
00:45:02gravitate indeed.
00:45:04Or so his type.
00:45:07But I bet he never mentioned that either.
00:45:09Propriety, am I right?
00:45:11Can't be seen taking advantage of the sad orphan in his upright, mature care.
00:45:16At least, that's the take Mademoiselle Stella has been hammering home.
00:45:20What a gold digger.
00:45:22What a gold digger.
00:45:23I admire that in a bitch.
00:45:25Oh, stop your fretting.
00:45:27You're a hostage.
00:45:28You've got, oh, a 40% chance of making it up to life.
00:45:33Most players make their cliche play and sacrifice their pawns.
00:45:39But the patient ones leave them perfectly positioned on the board to take advantage of the other guy.
00:45:47And that's exactly what I'm going to do.
00:45:55Are you ready for your close-up?
00:46:17Come alone, or Miss Muffet won't survive.
00:46:23Now smile, and say cheese.
00:46:39They're late.
00:46:41They're unprofessionally late.
00:46:44Makes the guy feel lonely.
00:46:46Hmm?
00:46:47Oh, right.
00:46:48You can't talk.
00:46:50Ah!
00:46:53I've got anything to say.
00:46:55Who are you?
00:46:57Me?
00:46:59No.
00:47:01That's what you get for being a smoke-pia in your provincial little pod.
00:47:06And where have you been?
00:47:08Uh, getting coffee.
00:47:10Uh, we can get you an extra if you want.
00:47:11Get into your positions.
00:47:13It's nice.
00:47:16Aaron!
00:47:21Let her go.
00:47:23I said if you came alone, you would see her alive.
00:47:27That doesn't mean I'm relinquishing bargaining chips at the start.
00:47:31Put them in the fun chair, boys.
00:47:37Do you want me to drop the search for you?
00:47:40For your drug ring?
00:47:41Wait, he's the...
00:47:43Yes, Miss Muffet.
00:47:45I know this one is sheer at keeping you informed.
00:47:48But do try and keep up.
00:47:51You know, I want so much more.
00:47:54And you owe me so much more.
00:47:57I kept your name from being flagged.
00:48:00You kept mine.
00:48:01You turned me in.
00:48:03I turned your parents in.
00:48:04And me along with them.
00:48:06Oh, don't act so high and mighty about this now.
00:48:09You took my parents down that shithole.
00:48:11And you expect me to be grateful?
00:48:20Maybe I should thank you.
00:48:21After all, I did get to see the world because of you.
00:48:25Exile would do that to a kid.
00:48:27The jurisdiction of the law in these other countries is divided into little categories.
00:48:32They make their leaders earn every little last scrap of power.
00:48:36They can't even conceive of the absolute dominion that is the authority sector of Razul.
00:48:41And inheriting that kind of power.
00:48:44Passing it to a capable family member.
00:48:47Because you think you should trust family?
00:48:50Unthinkable.
00:48:51So Aaron here is just a little more worldly than everyone else.
00:48:55Wait.
00:48:57Go figure.
00:49:03AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
00:49:04AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
00:49:06AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
00:49:07AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
00:49:07AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
00:49:07AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
00:49:08AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
00:49:10AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
00:49:32AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
00:49:33Oh.
00:49:34She's got it in a bitch after a-
00:49:36You hurt her!
00:49:37And you get nothing from me!
00:49:39And I know you want something from me. More than just my pain.
00:49:48You know what, Miss Muffet? You've officially gotten annoying.
00:49:57Erin and I are overdue for a private chat. And you have officially lost your fly-on-the-wall privileges.
00:50:10FYI, your personal hostage survival rate is dropping!
00:50:16You're insane!
00:50:21You're insane!
00:50:24That's what everyone says in the face of the ambush.
00:50:32Maybe I should go find her.
00:50:34No. This is a mother's duty.
00:50:40Affairs of the heart are complicated.
00:50:49Leah?
00:50:52Please, we can talk about that I was troubling you.
00:50:59Leah?
00:51:00Leah?
00:51:08Brandon!
00:51:18Please, please, please.
00:51:22Don't come any closer! I'm armed!
00:51:28Is that any way to greet your rescuer?
00:51:32Stop struggling. I don't want to cut you, okay?
00:51:34I'm not going anywhere without Erin.
00:51:36That's not an option. Whether you walk out on your own two feet or carry you out, it's up to
00:51:42you.
00:51:42Look, you are the hope of our people. It's my duty to protect you. I can't do that if you're
00:51:50off chasing gangsters and kidnappers without a plan.
00:51:52That doesn't matter. I can't just leave him here.
00:51:55Well, from what I know of Erin, he would not want you putting yourself in harm's way for his sake.
00:52:05Also, your mother is worried sick about you. She finally found her long-lost daughter, the last living member of
00:52:12her family, in your kidnap moments after reunited.
00:52:16Your worst nightmares are coming true.
00:52:19Fine. But I am coming back for Erin.
00:52:24I expect nothing less, your highness.
00:52:40Oh, someone's looking a little less lost.
00:52:44You want me to abdicate his major journal in my house?
00:52:48And?
00:52:51And you want me to hand it over to you?
00:52:53See? Was that so hard?
00:52:59I am so sorry we couldn't get to you sooner, but since your father died, my contacts in Ruiz have
00:53:04become scattered and limited.
00:53:06I'll be fine, but we need to-
00:53:08Oh, thankfully I still have a few people I can trust. You've already met my driver, Alexi, and my valet,
00:53:16Ivan, and my dog, Walker, Boris.
00:53:19And, of course, Sir Brendan remains the most loyal and dedicated son of Lysagor.
00:53:26It's my honor to serve. And, fortunately, I'm just one man.
00:53:32Okay, enough. I can't sit here while Erin is in danger. Now, are you going to help me or not?
00:53:41It's going to take time.
00:53:43We don't have time.
00:53:45Erin is always there for me, and now he needs me.
00:53:48I have to go.
00:53:51Of course I wouldn't think of standing in your way, but the fact remains, I have no more resources to
00:53:57give you.
00:53:59You have given me all I need.
00:54:02I have my own resources now.
00:54:07Ruben?
00:54:10You are my last plug, though, of course, so I could install you.
00:54:14But no other major general is going to want to cooperate with you.
00:54:17Oh, I've got plans for that. I got quite good at making plans.
00:54:22How do you like my little empire, by the way?
00:54:24It's a drug ring.
00:54:25It's the start of a kingdom, and one that would run much smoother if it wasn't forced to operate in
00:54:31the shadows.
00:54:32Doubling as a local major general could make that happen.
00:54:36And I intend to use the damn position to make a lot of things happen.
00:54:42Unlike you sitting on your arse while your underlings do their sad little attempts at a bust.
00:54:49Or should I say, topping up.
00:54:52What?
00:54:53Oh, yes, guys.
00:54:55I do know your dirt here is still a secret.
00:54:58I should.
00:55:00I helped make it happen.
00:55:11You son of a bitch!
00:55:14Our mothers are not fair game, Aaron. You set that rule when we were eight. Remember?
00:55:20It was you.
00:55:23It was Stella, but yes, it was me too.
00:55:27And it was a lot of fun to watch.
00:55:30General Shelley's daughter exploited the whole aftermath.
00:55:33I just kept tabs.
00:55:35I just kept tabs.
00:55:36And you defended Stella, didn't you?
00:55:39Beautiful as ever.
00:55:41Of course you did.
00:55:43Ha!
00:55:44Damn!
00:55:45But if I could be a fly on that wall, watching you tell the girl who's in love with you
00:55:51that she has to take that bitch's shit.
00:55:54And after, you sought her out for the most vital ride of her life.
00:56:01He is not in love with me.
00:56:02Oh, you always were dense about the suffering of others.
00:56:10That's okay.
00:56:12I'm gonna help you walk a mile in her shoes.
00:56:18I'm gonna help you walk a mile in her shoes.
00:56:21Hmm.
00:56:31Yeah, you're gonna do this.
00:56:32Just.
00:56:33Go on again.
00:56:33No, no.
00:56:35Open up!
00:56:36Ha!
00:56:37Ah!
00:56:42Oh!
00:56:48God help!
00:56:49If I bother, I intend to rule there, too.
00:56:54You know, your little miss had me worried for a moment
00:56:58that I brought a bad badge across the border with me.
00:57:01She seemed to take forever to experience the side effects.
00:57:04Luckily, she was a fluke.
00:57:14Cut him loose, boys.
00:57:46Please!
00:57:52Should we fight them?
00:57:54Are we being paid enough to fight them?
00:57:56No.
00:58:13Aaron.
00:58:14Aaron.
00:58:15Tashi.
00:58:15Leah.
00:58:16Safe.
00:58:17She's safe, man.
00:58:25Come on.
00:58:26Let's get you moved.
00:58:27Oh.
00:58:32Patience.
00:58:33Patience?
00:58:35Aaron could be in there dying, and we're just sitting here watching and waiting.
00:58:38I feel utterly useless.
00:58:40By watching, we keep our people from being surrounded.
00:58:43Besides, you're the one who decided to call in Ruben.
00:58:46You agreed to follow his orders.
00:58:48Wait, I think I see something.
00:58:50Over there.
00:58:51I can't be certain, but it kind of looks like a tiger.
00:58:58What was that for?
00:59:00Shh.
00:59:01You don't want him to see us.
00:59:03We can't let that bastard get away.
00:59:07I'm not.
00:59:08You're staying here where it's safe.
00:59:12Fine, but I'm doing this under protest.
00:59:15Protest now.
00:59:17Stay here.
00:59:22Come on.
00:59:2497, 98, 99, 100.
00:59:41Aaron, thank God.
00:59:42His skin is hypersensitive right now, and it's only going to get worse.
00:59:46I'm doing what I can to fix the wounds right now.
00:59:50Aaron?
00:59:54Oh, you shouldn't have come.
00:59:56Oh, sweet girl.
00:59:59He's not making any sense.
01:00:00What's going on?
01:00:01Oh, I think you know.
01:00:05That is my heart.
01:00:09Aaron doesn't have any special antibodies.
01:00:11That is correct.
01:00:13So, what do we do?
01:00:15How can we...
01:00:15There's no cure.
01:00:16We can only mitigate symptoms.
01:00:18How?
01:00:20I think you know that, too.
01:00:27I think you know that, too.
01:00:32Um, is there somebody we should call?
01:00:34You.
01:00:37I want it to be you.
01:00:40Only you.
01:00:42Let's clear you guys out of this room.
01:00:50Well, let's clear you guys out of here.
01:00:57Well, let's clear you guys out of here.
01:00:58Oh, that's okay, we'll see you next time.
01:00:59Bye bye.
01:00:59Bye bye.
01:01:00Bye bye.
01:01:01Bye bye.
01:01:02Bye bye.
01:01:04Bye bye.
01:01:06Bye bye.
01:01:08Bye bye bye.
01:02:26So, where is she?
01:02:29With Aaron.
01:02:42It's inferior to Lizagor tea, you know.
01:02:45Don't make me open a door on you too.
01:03:02How are you feeling?
01:03:05Better, thanks to Leo.
01:03:09Good, but I still need to get you checked out.
01:03:11I called the doctor and she's going to meet you at home when you arrive.
01:03:16Um, I'll be right back.
01:03:19You love him.
01:03:21I do.
01:03:22And I wish you the best.
01:03:25It's been an honor serving you both.
01:03:30So, what happens now?
01:03:32Well, Lady Tiffany has decided to remain in Rozeal, with you,
01:03:38and placing her safety in the hands of your Major General.
01:03:41But, what about you?
01:03:43I'll see what good I can do in Lizagor.
01:03:46You may be in chaos now, but I'll always remain loyal to the Royal Family.
01:03:53Thank you for everything you've done, for me and for my family.
01:03:57Goodbye, Princess.
01:04:06Princess, should I be worried?
01:04:09It's a long story.
01:04:10I'll tell you about it when we get home.
01:04:12Okay.
01:04:13But, before there's any other misunderstandings, I want to make something clear.
01:04:18About what?
01:04:19Yeah.
01:04:20I love you.
01:04:23I know that might seem sudden, but it's not.
01:04:28Look, over everything we've been through the last few weeks, I just...
01:04:31I just want to ensure that there are not any misunderstandings.
01:04:38I'm so in love with you.
01:04:40And I have been.
01:04:42For a long time.
01:04:45I want you to know.
01:04:47I want everyone to know that.
01:04:53Leah, please say something.
01:04:55I love you.
01:04:59I love you too.
01:05:02In that case, shall we let the world know?
01:05:14Leah Jenkins?
01:05:17Will you marry me?
01:05:19Yes.
01:05:20Yes.
01:05:21Oh my god.
01:05:32Hey.
01:05:50Hi, General. I didn't realize I'd be seeing you in person today.
01:05:54The situation called for, Lieutenant. You and the Major General have cause to be proud.
01:05:58Thank you, sir.
01:06:03Major General Aaron Herald, I am here on behalf of Ruat Sil itself to congratulate you on completing your mission
01:06:09and ensuring the safety of our people.
01:06:12The honor is mine, Hi, General Shaney.
01:06:14When you first undertook this task, I conferred with my fellow elders.
01:06:18We had faith in your success and thus already had in mind the next mission that we wish to offer
01:06:23you.
01:06:28We have an undercover mission overseas. We need someone who is truly capable to investigate a colony in Ithbeck.
01:06:37Hi, General. I thank you. I do. But I already know I cannot accept.
01:06:44You can't.
01:06:48An undercover mission to Ithbeck would interfere with planning my wedding.
01:06:56You're...
01:06:57Oh, I see.
01:06:59The utmost congratulations to you, Major General. May you both flourish.
01:07:12I'm gonna have to sucker someone else into it, I suppose.
01:07:34I'm gonna have to sucker someone else into it, I suppose.
01:07:43I'm gonna have to sucker someone else into it, I suppose.
01:07:44I'm gonna have to sucker someone else into it, I suppose.
01:07:44I'm gonna have to sucker someone else into it, I suppose.
01:07:44I'm gonna have to sucker someone else into it, I suppose.
01:07:44I'm gonna have to sucker someone else into it, I suppose.
01:07:44I'm gonna have to sucker someone else into it, I suppose.
01:07:45I'm gonna have to sucker someone else into it, I suppose.
01:07:46I'm gonna have to sucker someone else into it, I suppose.
01:07:47You
