00:00:17Dad.
00:00:26Juliet.
00:00:28I knew you'd come.
00:00:30The humans started a war
00:00:33My whole family is gone
00:00:38Yeah, I know
00:00:39I'm the one who started it
00:00:41And I'm the one who had your family killed
00:00:44You're a mutant too
00:00:45Why would you do this to us?
00:00:48God, you're stupid
00:00:49I'm standing on the winning side
00:00:51It's not that complicated
00:00:52You said you'd marry me
00:00:55You gave me this
00:00:57You said it meant something
00:00:58I followed him around like a lost puppy for years
00:01:02If you hadn't put on that ability suppressor
00:01:04Just to impress him
00:01:05Your electric power might have actually been able to save someone
00:01:09My ability is S-class
00:01:11Then this collar
00:01:12You said the blue stone would help me control my power
00:01:16That's not an energy stone
00:01:18It's null stone
00:01:19Made specifically to shut abilities down
00:01:22Every single day it's been draining you
00:01:24Destroying you from the inside
00:01:28You lied to me
00:01:48S-class doesn't matter when you're collared
00:01:51Every time you push your power
00:01:53It floods your system with noxious resonates
00:01:55So from day one there was never any love there
00:01:57Was there?
00:01:58You're still on that?
00:02:00Every single day of those seven years
00:02:02Was something I had to survive
00:02:04If it weren't for your father's name
00:02:08I wouldn't have given you a second look
00:02:10You had this coming
00:02:34Aurora!
00:02:43Leon...
00:02:46I was too late
00:02:48I'm sorry
00:02:51I'm so sorry
00:03:10I was too late
00:03:11I was too late
00:03:11I was too late
00:03:11I was too late
00:03:12I was too late
00:03:12I was too late
00:03:12I was too late
00:03:12I was too late
00:03:12I was too late
00:03:12I was too late
00:03:13I was too late
00:03:14I was too late
00:03:16I was too late
00:03:17I was too late
00:03:27No!
00:03:31Stop.
00:03:34You're wasting your energy.
00:03:36There's nothing left to do.
00:03:39But if you're gone,
00:03:41what's any of this even for?
00:03:44Don't.
00:03:46You're the strongest blood ability user alive.
00:03:50You have to keep going.
00:03:52Our people still need you to fight.
00:03:55Aurora,
00:03:57I don't know how to make you get it.
00:04:00None of it means anything without you.
00:04:02It never did.
00:04:06You just never saw that.
00:04:10All those years,
00:04:11Dad kept bringing up Leon.
00:04:14Leon kept mentioning the engagement.
00:04:16Leon was always just there.
00:04:19Quietly, awkwardly there.
00:04:22And I threw that away chasing someone
00:04:24who never gave a damn about me.
00:04:27I wasted everything.
00:04:30My whole life.
00:04:32I was so blind.
00:04:35You were right there and I couldn't see it.
00:04:38And now it's too late.
00:04:46Leon,
00:04:48before I go,
00:04:50do one last thing for me.
00:04:52Take off this collar.
00:04:54I don't want to die wearing it.
00:04:57Okay.
00:05:06Leon,
00:05:08if I could do it all over again,
00:05:10I'd choose you.
00:05:14I really would.
00:05:24guide your stupid.
00:05:25Bloods your system with noxious resonance.
00:05:26I'm the one who had your family killed.
00:05:28Aurora!
00:05:33I'm alive.
00:05:35No wounds.
00:05:37No collar.
00:05:44Which means,
00:05:45this is before Julian gave me the collar?
00:05:48This is
00:05:49seventh year practical ops class?
00:05:52I can still fix this.
00:05:54I can change everything.
00:06:02The blue stone gives basic suppression of the host's energy.
00:06:05The green stone is different.
00:06:07It actively feeds on the host's energy
00:06:08and releases harmful radiation.
00:06:10Long-term exposure causes irreversible damage.
00:06:13It's not an energy stone.
00:06:14It's null stone.
00:06:16Now,
00:06:16I'd like a student to come up and demonstrate.
00:06:22Aurora,
00:06:23you.
00:06:27Isn't she the worst student in the class?
00:06:30Great.
00:06:31Here we go again.
00:06:37Try not to fry it the second you touch it.
00:06:39I mean,
00:06:40if she actually pulls it off for once,
00:06:41I'll clap.
00:06:42I will.
00:06:47Now,
00:06:48release your current.
00:07:07She can't even float an apple.
00:07:09Like,
00:07:10what is she even doing up there?
00:07:12Can't hold a basic current steady?
00:07:15Yeah,
00:07:15no surprise there.
00:07:18Don't stop.
00:07:19Try again.
00:07:21Try again.
00:07:22Try again.
00:07:25Try again.
00:07:26Try again.
00:07:35You're still on that?
00:07:37Every single day of those seven years
00:07:39was something I had to survive.
00:07:41If it weren't for your father's name,
00:07:45I wouldn't have given you a second look.
00:07:54What?
00:08:01Aurora!
00:08:03Pull back!
00:08:20You fucked up again! Look what you did!
00:08:24Zero control, huh? Just leaking all over the place like a busted wire!
00:08:28She shouldn't even been rolled here. Half-blood trash.
00:08:34Apologize to Serena. Now!
00:08:40Is she trying to pick a fight? Julian is the strongest ability user in the whole school!
00:08:45Julian said it himself. Victor Hale is grooming him as successor. He's set to inherit the whole Hale estate.
00:08:49Aurora's just some servant's kid. Victor Hale's successor? Heir to the Hale estate? And I'm the servant's kid.
00:08:55Julian, you've really been out here telling people that?
00:08:58Stop making shit up! You heard Serena apologize to her right now!
00:09:01Julian, you're so sweet. You heard him. Apologize? He's basically the heir to the Hale family.
00:09:09Heir to the Hale family? You don't even know his last name.
00:09:12You know what? You're exhausting! You're not riding back with us today!
00:09:17She's different today. Something's off. You're not letting me ride with you? Julian, you've got it backwards. You're not riding
00:09:24with me.
00:09:30Where's she coming?
00:09:32No. No way.
00:09:36Is she serious right now? That's the Hale family airship!
00:09:40She just got on? By herself? Before everyone else?
00:09:44She's not even gonna wait for Julian? A servant's daughter just taking the wheel like she owns it?
00:09:49She should be expelled for this.
00:09:58Aurora, how come you're not waiting for Julian today?
00:10:03Julian who?
00:10:04His last name is Cross, not Hale. He's your son, Carl. Don't tell me you forgot that.
00:10:09My son is your private coach. The Hale family's always been generous. Surely you wouldn't make your coach walk all
00:10:15the way home?
00:10:18Everyone knows you're obsessed with my son. He snaps his fingers and you come running.
00:10:23Everything the Hale family has, it's only a matter of time before it's ours.
00:10:31Aurora!
00:10:34You're a servant's kid! Get out of the pilot's seat! Now! Get down!
00:10:38You think you belong up there?
00:10:40What? You think you own it?
00:10:43Your airship? That's a pretty funny misunderstanding.
00:10:47Want me to clear it up for everyone right now?
00:10:51What is she doing? I have to get on this airlift in front of everyone.
00:10:55I can't let anyone find out I'm just the parking guy's son.
00:11:01Look, I'm not even mad anymore. I'll let it go. Aurora, is this really worth it?
00:11:07I don't need you to let anything go. And I'd really appreciate it if you stopped following me around.
00:11:14Are you kidding me right now? Julian, why are you still being nice to her?
00:11:21Get down!
00:11:25That's what you get!
00:11:27She really thought she was gonna win that?
00:11:34Come on, she's not worth it.
00:11:40Good riddance. Blocking the way like she owns the place.
00:11:43Who does she think she is?
00:11:44Carl, do not clear them for departure.
00:11:49Miss, are you quite done?
00:11:54Let's not keep Julian and Miss Vale waiting.
00:11:58I'll say this once more. If that airship leaves, you're not gonna like what happens next.
00:12:02You're really worked up today.
00:12:04But once Julian comes back and says the right things, you'll drop it. You always do.
00:12:12See that? That's how it's done!
00:12:15It's not even your airship. Stop pretending.
00:12:20Dad, there's a staff member here at the academy, Carl Cross. He just authorized the departure of our
00:12:25private airship without permission. I think we should let him go. Effective immediately.
00:12:30Oh, sure. Nice story. Who's your dad? The principal? Is she about to say she owns the school too?
00:12:37You really think one phone call fixes this?
00:12:42Just watch.
00:12:52What happened? You literally just left!
00:12:54The academy forced a lockdown. System override.
00:13:00Carl Cross. For unauthorized eye shopping of private property, you're terminated. Effective immediately.
00:13:07No, that's not... There has to be a mistake.
00:13:10You had no authority over that airship.
00:13:12Get off me! I was doing my job!
00:13:15He actually got fired. One call and she just...
00:13:20I apologize that this happened on school grounds, Miss Hale. Your airship's access been fully restored.
00:13:28Aurora, you've actually pissed me off this time.
00:13:33Good. Get used to it.
00:13:37Good. Get used to it. This is just the beginning. Bye.
00:13:42Lord Julian.
00:13:58It's all still here.
00:14:00We still have a chance to fix this.
00:14:11Dad.
00:14:29Leanne.
00:14:33Without you, none of it means anything to me.
00:14:40Dad, Leon.
00:14:45Look at that. You actually used his name. Know that guy today?
00:14:49Aurora, you okay?
00:14:52I'm fine.
00:14:54Hasn't seen her fiancé in a while and she's already tearing up. Very telling.
00:14:58Dad, stop and maybe give us a little room?
00:15:03Oh, I see how it is. How it is, I'm being dismissed.
00:15:11Leon, would you want to have dinner with me tonight? Just us?
00:15:18I...
00:15:20Yeah, absolutely. Of course.
00:15:29You look nervous.
00:15:31Sorry. I just didn't expect you to invite me like this, out of nowhere.
00:15:36Leon Hart gets nervous? You don't even blink on the battlefield.
00:15:41You're way scarier than any battlefield.
00:15:43Oh, that came out wrong.
00:15:45No, it's fair. I wasn't exactly nice to you before.
00:15:50You're probably not used to this yet, are you?
00:15:54Well, you should get used to it.
00:15:57Because I want you around more.
00:15:59A lot more.
00:16:05Starting with...
00:16:07becoming my new coach.
00:16:10Are you serious?
00:16:11I...
00:16:12Aurora, who is this?
00:16:15Why are you sitting with him?
00:16:16Oh, glad you asked.
00:16:17This is Leon Hart, my new coach.
00:16:20Strongest bloody ability user alive.
00:16:22Pretty sure you've heard of him.
00:16:23Aurora.
00:16:24New coach?
00:16:26I'm your coach.
00:16:27If you let him anywhere near your training,
00:16:30I'm gone.
00:16:32Of course.
00:16:33She's just using me to get to Julian.
00:16:36Then go ahead.
00:16:37I knew you'd...
00:16:38Wait, what?
00:16:39I said I already have a new coach.
00:16:43I don't need you anymore.
00:16:44You can go.
00:16:46You...
00:16:47What?
00:16:48You heard me.
00:16:49Leave.
00:16:53You heard her.
00:16:54I'm her coach now.
00:16:57Something is seriously wrong with her today.
00:16:59I need to get this back under control.
00:17:01Come on, Aurora.
00:17:02I know you're mad about me and Serena.
00:17:03But there's nothing going on.
00:17:05We're just friends.
00:17:06Sure.
00:17:11I actually came tonight to give you something.
00:17:14Open it.
00:17:21It'll help stabilize your ability long term.
00:17:23And it's...
00:17:24I don't know.
00:17:25It means something.
00:17:27To me.
00:17:31Every single day, it's been draining you.
00:17:34Destroying you from the inside.
00:17:41Nobody else is going to deal with your ability the way I do.
00:17:45Here.
00:17:46Let me put it on.
00:17:47Don't!
00:17:51Relax.
00:17:52Back up.
00:17:52She's not interested.
00:18:07Aurora?
00:18:11Aurora.
00:18:16Once that collar is on, you can't take it off yourself.
00:18:18That's not exactly a romantic gift.
00:18:22Leon's got a point.
00:18:23I'm not putting that on.
00:18:25Not interested in being anyone's pet.
00:18:27That's rich.
00:18:28Coming from the girl who used to follow me around all day.
00:18:31Kind of hard to take seriously.
00:18:35Not yet.
00:18:36Julian, what you owe me goes way beyond just my life.
00:18:40And I'm going to get every single piece of it back.
00:18:47You actually came back?
00:18:49A servant's daughter kicks the owner off his own airship and just walks in like nothing happened?
00:18:54Aurora, do you seriously think you belong here?
00:18:57She got the academy to lock down the whole parking lot yesterday.
00:19:00Over Julian's airship?
00:19:02That's actually insane.
00:19:04Hold on.
00:19:06Who did you just call a servant?
00:19:07You.
00:19:08Everyone here knows it.
00:19:10Julian is the heir Mr. Hale personally picked.
00:19:12You're just one of the help.
00:19:14Okay, so let's get something straight.
00:19:15The real heir to the Hale estate is...
00:19:22Yeah?
00:19:23Who?
00:19:24Chloe, shut up.
00:19:28Perfect timing.
00:19:30Why don't you go ahead and clear that up?
00:19:32Right now, in front of everyone.
00:19:35Between the two of us, who's the servant and who's the heir?
00:19:40Aurora, are we done?
00:19:42Class is starting.
00:19:43I'm not doing this right now.
00:19:44Fine.
00:19:45I'm not in a rush to blow your cover today, Julian.
00:19:48There'll be plenty of opportunities.
00:19:51I can't let people start questioning who I am.
00:19:54I need to get them back on my side.
00:19:59Actually, since everyone's here, I'm throwing a birthday party at the Stellar Hotel this weekend.
00:20:04You're all invited.
00:20:06The Stellar Hotel?
00:20:07That's like the most exclusive place in the whole city!
00:20:10I heard you can't even get in the door for under a few hundred thousand!
00:20:12Julian, that's insane!
00:20:14You can just casually book a place like that?
00:20:16I heard Julian actually owns the Stellar Hotel.
00:20:19Of course he does.
00:20:20That's just how he operates.
00:20:22I knew it.
00:20:24Julian only wears the latest everything.
00:20:26There's no way he's broke.
00:20:27Aurora's out here in discount clothes trying to act like she runs the place.
00:20:30It's actually embarrassing.
00:20:32Julian's not usually one to make a big deal of things.
00:20:35But since we're all here, let's celebrate!
00:20:39Everyone's welcome.
00:20:41It's on me.
00:20:42He's covering everything?
00:20:44Seriously?
00:20:45This is why Mr. Hale picked him.
00:20:47Makes total sense.
00:20:48Last time around, I spent eight million on his birthday.
00:20:52Made him look incredible.
00:20:53Never got a thank you.
00:20:54Not doing that again.
00:21:01This is the place.
00:21:03I spent a fortune throwing Julian a birthday party here.
00:21:06And right when I was about to tell him how I felt, he kissed Serena in front of me.
00:21:11Julian, tonight I'm going to give you a birthday you actually won't forget.
00:21:15You seriously showed up?
00:21:17Julian hasn't looked at you in days and you're just crashing his birthday like it's nothing?
00:21:22It's a hotel.
00:21:23I can go wherever I want.
00:21:25Julian didn't even invite you!
00:21:27Are you Julian's dog or Serena's?
00:21:29Neither of them has said anything, so what are you barking for?
00:21:34I thought you said you weren't coming.
00:21:36Oh, right.
00:21:37It's your birthday.
00:21:38Honestly, almost forgot until I ran into you just now.
00:21:40What are you playing at?
00:21:42Is this about me not inviting you?
00:21:44Aurora, it's Julian's birthday.
00:21:46Don't start something.
00:21:47At the end of the day, you're just the daughter of his family's servant.
00:21:50So, say that again.
00:21:51Who do you think you are?
00:21:53A servant's daughter putting her hands on her!
00:21:57You actually pushed me?
00:21:59I'll deal with you myself!
00:22:02Stop!
00:22:10What do you think you're doing?
00:22:13Enough!
00:22:15It's my birthday.
00:22:17Let's not make this a whole thing.
00:22:19Aurora, I'm not going to hold any of this against you.
00:22:22You said you'd come celebrate, right?
00:22:25Everyone's here.
00:22:26Don't make me look bad.
00:22:27So this party really matters to you.
00:22:29If I tank your whole rich kid reputation tonight, that'd hurt worse than anything else I could do, wouldn't it?
00:22:35All right, then.
00:22:36Let's have some fun.
00:22:39Right, okay.
00:22:41It's your birthday.
00:22:42You want everyone to have a good time.
00:22:43I just remembered, I actually booked the best private room in the building for you.
00:22:48The Platinum Suite.
00:22:50You can go in whenever you're ready.
00:22:51You booked the Platinum Suite?
00:22:53Obviously.
00:22:54You care way too much about how things look.
00:22:56I wasn't going to let your birthday be embarrassing.
00:22:58There it is.
00:22:59Same old Aurora, talks big and still ends up spending money on me.
00:23:03Some things never change.
00:23:04That's more like it.
00:23:06All right, everyone.
00:23:07Let's go.
00:23:12Okay, what are you up to?
00:23:14Think of it as my thank you for stepping in back there.
00:23:17You're about to watch something really good.
00:23:19I just need you to go along with it.
00:23:21Yeah, all right.
00:23:22I'm in.
00:23:23He's totally getting sorry.
00:23:33Julian, come on.
00:23:34That bottle alone must be worth thousands.
00:23:36This room is actually unreal.
00:23:39This is what it looks like when you actually own the place.
00:23:42Order whatever you want.
00:23:43Tonight's on me.
00:23:46Julian, you're the best.
00:23:52Whatever you want, it's yours.
00:23:56Look at you, loving every second of this.
00:23:59When that bill hits the table, your face is going to be absolutely worth all of it.
00:24:02If that guy hadn't showed up out of nowhere earlier.
00:24:06Okay, but who even is he?
00:24:07He's not nobody.
00:24:08Right?
00:24:09There's something about him.
00:24:10Aurora brought some guy to make me jealous?
00:24:13Please.
00:24:14I can barely look at her as it is.
00:24:16Just so you know, this one glass probably costs more than your mom makes in a year.
00:24:21Wow, that much?
00:24:22Hope whoever's paying can actually cover it.
00:24:25Oh, please.
00:24:26Julian's got the tab.
00:24:27Have whatever's left.
00:24:28Consider it a treat for the stray.
00:24:31She's not wrong.
00:24:32I ordered more than enough.
00:24:33Help yourself.
00:24:34The guy you brought, though, he's not included.
00:24:37Oh, so I'm not paying?
00:24:38That's great.
00:24:41Mr. Cross, here's tonight's bill.
00:24:43We'd like to settle it now if you don't mind.
00:24:46Hang on.
00:24:47Isn't this Julian's hotel?
00:24:49Why is the hotel charging its owner?
00:24:55Wasn't the room already taken care of?
00:24:57Owner's orders.
00:24:58Whoever buys, pays.
00:25:00Excuse me?
00:25:02This is Julian's hotel.
00:25:03You're seriously going to charge him?
00:25:06He could have you fired right now.
00:25:08Yeah!
00:25:08Fire him!
00:25:09Miss, someone here seems to be trying to skip out on the bill and pass themselves off as the owner.
00:25:15Wait, who is he talking to?
00:25:17The owner?
00:25:18Aurora?
00:25:19No way!
00:25:20This hotel is Julian's family's.
00:25:21Everyone knows that!
00:25:24Funny how that works.
00:25:26You book the fanciest room in the building,
00:25:29let everyone eat and drink whatever they want,
00:25:32and somehow the bill ends up in front of me?
00:25:38Aurora, come on.
00:25:40Just cover it and we move on.
00:25:41Don't do this to me right now.
00:25:46Not really my problem, is it?
00:25:48The Stellar Hotel.
00:25:49That's your family's, right?
00:25:51It is.
00:25:52Can I borrow it tonight?
00:25:53What are you planning?
00:25:54I'm going to act like I'm spending money on Julian,
00:25:57but I won't actually pay.
00:25:59When he's completely out of options,
00:26:01he'll have to come to me.
00:26:04Okay, that's actually pretty good.
00:26:07Here's an idea.
00:26:08Everyone just splits it.
00:26:10Pull it together, see what happens.
00:26:14Wait, split it ourselves?
00:26:17Didn't Julian say he was covering everything?
00:26:18Aurora, stop messing around and just pay it.
00:26:22You want a favor?
00:26:23Then ask like you mean it.
00:26:26Get on your knees and ask me nicely.
00:26:29Maybe I'll think about it.
00:26:33Are you being serious right now?
00:26:35Julian, you're not actually going to...
00:26:40Not going to do it?
00:26:43Fine.
00:26:44Leon, let's head out.
00:26:46Wait.
00:26:47Please.
00:26:56There we go.
00:26:59Manager, I've got the bill.
00:27:03Total, $8,600,000.
00:27:08Happy birthday, Julian.
00:27:10I'll cover it this time.
00:27:12But let's get one thing straight.
00:27:14I'm not here to bankroll you and your girlfriend.
00:27:17So he actually doesn't have money.
00:27:19He's just been faking this whole time?
00:27:21One more chance.
00:27:22In front of everyone.
00:27:24Who's the owner and who's the servant?
00:27:27I'm done!
00:27:31Aurora, nobody has ever made me feel like this.
00:27:34You're going to pay for tonight.
00:27:36Every single bit of it.
00:27:37Oh, Julian.
00:27:38We're just getting started.
00:27:42Keep the frequency steady.
00:27:44Don't force it with emotion.
00:27:45Use your focus to control it.
00:27:47Stop.
00:27:48That's not working.
00:27:49I'm giving it everything I've got.
00:27:51Your power's not the issue.
00:27:52Your control is.
00:27:53Okay.
00:27:54One more time.
00:27:56Miss Hale, you're finally back.
00:27:57I've brought Julian today to apologize.
00:27:59Looks like you've got something to handle.
00:28:01We can pick this up tomorrow.
00:28:02See ya.
00:28:03Bye.
00:28:06An apology, Carl?
00:28:09What exactly did he do that needs an apology?
00:28:11Miss Haley, come on.
00:28:12I heard you let him go as your coach?
00:28:13Yeah, I did.
00:28:14Every session made my ability worse, not better.
00:28:16Why would I keep him around?
00:28:17And honestly, neither of you should be coming to the Hale estate anymore.
00:28:20That goes for both of you.
00:28:21Miss Hale, I made a mistake last time.
00:28:23I know that.
00:28:23But your father and I go way back.
00:28:25You can't just cut me out like this.
00:28:27Are you done?
00:28:28Then go.
00:28:30What are you doing just standing there?
00:28:32Apologize to her.
00:28:33I'm drowning in debt and you know it.
00:28:35Just say sorry.
00:28:36Get her back on your side.
00:28:37Everything the Hale family has will eventually be ours.
00:28:40All of it.
00:28:42Carl, you've been talking this whole time.
00:28:44And your son hasn't said a word.
00:28:46I'm not feeling a whole lot of sincerity here.
00:28:50Apologize now!
00:28:52Why the hell should I?
00:28:54Because I said so!
00:29:05Okay, Carl, that's enough.
00:29:07Your stuff is already down in the basement.
00:29:08Go get it.
00:29:13Carl, don't even think about making the Hale family clean up your mess.
00:29:16Not this time.
00:29:19Aurora, you really covered Julian's whole tab last night?
00:29:22So all that money he throws around, that's been yours this whole time?
00:29:25We actually thought he was loaded.
00:29:27Go ask him.
00:29:28Not my story to tell.
00:29:31Aurora, what about me?
00:29:33I'm way easier to deal with than Julian, I promise.
00:29:36For real.
00:29:37If you could fund him, you could fund me.
00:29:44Shut up.
00:29:45All of you.
00:29:51Feeling good about yourself?
00:29:53You humiliated me in front of everyone?
00:29:55What, because I didn't pick you over Serena?
00:29:58The audacity to say that out loud.
00:30:01Incredible.
00:30:02Let me be straight with you, Aurora.
00:30:03It doesn't matter what you do, I'm never going to have feelings for you.
00:30:06You're stupid, fake, and you lie constantly.
00:30:10You're not even in the same league as Serena.
00:30:12Right?
00:30:13You showed up last night with some random guy, and now you want to act like you're the victim?
00:30:16Hang on.
00:30:18Julian's the one who couldn't pay his own bill last night.
00:30:20Yeah, so why is he making this her fault?
00:30:23She's the one who made me invite everyone in the first place.
00:30:26I didn't even want to go.
00:30:27And then she turned around and made everyone look stupid.
00:30:30Aurora, you think money gives you the right to do whatever you want to people?
00:30:33And all that stuff about supporting me?
00:30:36That was a coaching fee you already owed!
00:30:38A coaching fee?
00:30:40Really?
00:30:42Since the day you started, all you did was spend my money, tear me down, and drain my ability.
00:30:48Tell me one actually useful thing you ever did.
00:30:51You being bad at this has nothing to do with me.
00:30:54Your ability is weak because of what you are.
00:30:56A low-grade half-blood.
00:30:58That's not my problem.
00:31:00If you're so sure I'm a bad coach, fine.
00:31:03You've got a new one.
00:31:04Let's see what he can actually do.
00:31:06What does that mean?
00:31:07Are they seriously making a bet right now?
00:31:09Stability assessment.
00:31:12Score above 800, and I'll admit it was my fault.
00:31:16That's your idea of stakes?
00:31:18Why would anyone take that bet?
00:31:20What more do you want?
00:31:21Julian's literally putting himself on the line here!
00:31:24Fine.
00:31:25If I win, you put on a bra and a skirt, strap on energy restraint rings, and run ten laps
00:31:31around the school.
00:31:32What more do you want?
00:31:34Julian's literally putting himself on the line here.
00:31:36Fine.
00:31:37If I win, you put on a bra and a skirt, strap on energy restraint rings, and run ten laps
00:31:43around the school.
00:31:43And if I win?
00:31:45Same thing for me.
00:31:47Is she serious?
00:31:48She's going up against Julian on an ability assessment?
00:31:51800?
00:31:52She barely scrapes 400 on a good day.
00:31:55Sure.
00:31:56You're on.
00:31:57Last time around, I couldn't even do basic energy control.
00:31:59I wore Julian's collar and never made it anywhere near a battlefield.
00:32:12This time, I'm going to train until I'm strong enough to protect the people I love.
00:32:23Aurora.
00:32:26Dad, what are you doing here?
00:32:28Had some business at the school.
00:32:30Thought I'd take you home.
00:32:31Last time, you died right in front of me, and there was nothing I could do.
00:32:34That's never happening again.
00:32:36Okay, what's going on with you today?
00:32:38Nothing.
00:32:40All right, all right.
00:32:41Someone mess with you today?
00:32:42No.
00:32:42I've just been thinking, I'm done being at the bottom of the class.
00:32:47I want to actually train, get my ability to where it should be.
00:32:50Yeah?
00:32:50You mean that?
00:32:55That's what I'm talking about.
00:32:56That's my girl.
00:33:04Wait!
00:33:05Who is that?
00:33:08That's just some old guy.
00:33:11Why is he so friendly with Aurora?
00:33:14Seriously?
00:33:15I've been wondering where all her money comes from.
00:33:17Guess that answers it.
00:33:18She's got a sugar daddy.
00:33:21That explains why Julian was never into her.
00:33:27I made a bet with Julian.
00:33:29Score above 800 on the semester assessment.
00:33:31Whoever loses has to wear restraint rings.
00:33:33I'll get you there.
00:33:34And honestly, your training's already showing.
00:33:36I can feel it.
00:33:38Really?
00:33:40I figured you'd say 800 was way out of reach for someone like me.
00:33:43You're not what they say you are.
00:33:45Your ability's been held back.
00:33:46That's not the same thing as being weak.
00:33:48He's right.
00:33:49Last time Julian chipped away at me bit by bit
00:33:51until I didn't even know what I was capable of anymore.
00:33:55Then I'm counting on you.
00:33:58Let's get to work.
00:34:04Again.
00:34:06Again.
00:34:11Again.
00:34:17Yes!
00:34:18That's it!
00:34:19Okay, we're moving to the next stage.
00:34:21God, he's actually excited about this.
00:34:23This is literally first year stuff.
00:34:30Don't force it.
00:34:32Just guide it.
00:34:37Easy.
00:34:38Easy.
00:34:39You've got it.
00:34:44There it is!
00:34:48Take them all out.
00:34:59Okay.
00:35:01Wow.
00:35:04You did it!
00:35:05I did!
00:35:08You've got a real shot at winning that bet now.
00:35:12Couldn't have gotten here without you.
00:35:15I genuinely didn't think I could do this.
00:35:18Leon is nothing like Julia.
00:35:21He's incredible at what he does.
00:35:23And he's still this patient and kind with me.
00:35:28Julian just called me stupid
00:35:29and tricked me into wearing a bunch of green nullstone.
00:35:33You know, I've been thinking about it.
00:35:35Why was your ability stuck so low for so long?
00:35:38It really feels like something
00:35:40was deliberately suppressing it.
00:35:56Finally here to grab your stuff from the basement.
00:35:59Make sure you get everything.
00:36:01Feeling pretty good about this bet, huh, Aurora?
00:36:04You really think a new training partner is going to be enough?
00:36:06You're not going to hit 800.
00:36:08You never will.
00:36:09You seem really sure about that.
00:36:11Admit it, Aurora.
00:36:12This is just another way for you to get my attention,
00:36:14and you know it.
00:36:16Your attention.
00:36:17Right.
00:36:18Actually, that reminds me of something.
00:36:27Take all of this with you, too.
00:36:29I don't want any of it.
00:36:30I told you.
00:36:32Blue sapphire pieces are for stabilizing your ability.
00:36:36Surprise.
00:36:36I ran a restoration technique on them.
00:36:38Every single one is Nudstone.
00:36:40All those times you called them stabilizers,
00:36:42you were actually using them to drain me and keep me weak.
00:36:44So I'd have no choice but to keep you around.
00:36:46Right?
00:36:47That's why her ability was stuck this whole time.
00:36:50It was you.
00:36:51Julian, that's fucked up.
00:36:55I don't know what you two are going on about.
00:36:58Take your shit and get out.
00:37:00Was that clear enough?
00:37:03Next up is the Port Coordination Test.
00:37:06The rules are simple.
00:37:07Within the time limit,
00:37:07help the workers move your assigned containers
00:37:09from the ship to the target zone.
00:37:11Quantity, speed, and placement stability
00:37:13all count towards your score.
00:37:21Now this is a test worth showing up for.
00:37:32That's insane.
00:37:34That's Chloe for you.
00:37:55What is she doing?
00:37:57She hasn't moved a single one.
00:37:59What?
00:38:00Already lost control?
00:38:01Called it.
00:38:02She's the same as always.
00:38:04Showing up to embarrass herself in front of everyone?
00:38:07Honestly, kind of sad.
00:38:15You look completely lost.
00:38:17Let me help.
00:38:25She can't pull it.
00:38:27They're totally locked in place.
00:38:46She's moving the whole group at once?
00:38:48No.
00:38:49She's going to beat me.
00:38:52I am not losing to you!
00:39:03Chloe Maser, complete.
00:39:05See that?
00:39:06Done!
00:39:07You can stop with the theatrics!
00:39:16Who said you could touch my containers?
00:39:19Idiot.
00:39:20That container is filled with liquid stellar core fuel.
00:39:23It has to be stored upright.
00:39:24You flipped it in the rush.
00:39:2530 more seconds and the whole dock goes up.
00:39:28She's right!
00:39:29The alarm was already going off!
00:39:35No.
00:39:37That can't be right.
00:39:39Aurora Hale, complete.
00:39:41Zero error.
00:39:42Zero risk.
00:39:43Hyatt grade.
00:39:46So, how'd that go for everyone?
00:39:49Aurora's score for the park ordination test is perfect!
00:39:54Who's building a grid this whole time?
00:39:56She had every single target locked from the start!
00:39:58That's not possible.
00:39:59How did she just...
00:39:59Well, isn't this what you like?
00:40:02Well, isn't this what you like?
00:40:02Watching me mess up?
00:40:10Settle down.
00:40:11The combined results for all ability assessments are in.
00:40:15Third place overall, Serena Vale.
00:40:18Serena only third?
00:40:19Then who's second?
00:40:21Second place, Julian Cross.
00:40:24How?
00:40:25Julian's always first!
00:40:26I'm not finished.
00:40:28First place overall, Aurora Hale.
00:40:35Composite grade, A%.
00:40:38What?
00:40:40Aurora is first?
00:40:42She actually got an A+.
00:40:46Catch that?
00:40:48A+.
00:40:49Top of the class.
00:40:55I won.
00:40:57Julian, a bet's a bet.
00:40:59Bra, skirt, energy restraint rings.
00:41:02Ten laps around the school.
00:41:04Aurora, don't push it!
00:41:06So you hit an A?
00:41:07Big deal!
00:41:08You just got lucky once!
00:41:09Our bet was whether I could hit an A.
00:41:11I did.
00:41:12He lost.
00:41:13He owes a penalty.
00:41:14Lord Julian, don't tell me you can't take a loss.
00:41:17Aurora, we're all classmates.
00:41:19Do you have to take it this far?
00:41:21If you feel so bad for him,
00:41:23feel free to take the punishment in his place.
00:41:25You...
00:41:25You know what?
00:41:26I think you cheated.
00:41:27You used to be that bad,
00:41:29and lately you've been cozying up to that old man.
00:41:31When did you even have time to train?
00:41:32There's no way you improved that fast!
00:41:35Teacher,
00:41:37Aurora's improvement is too dramatic.
00:41:38I'm requesting she be examined.
00:41:40Do you have evidence?
00:41:41If not, shut your mouth.
00:41:43Otherwise, I'll file a defamation complaint,
00:41:46and you know what that means.
00:41:48A dead last student like you?
00:41:50Your old schools speak for themselves!
00:42:20You are getting examined today!
00:42:21Otherwise, how do we know who really tampered with things?
00:42:24How is she this sharp all of a sudden?
00:42:26It's like she's a completely different person.
00:42:28She has a point.
00:42:30In the interest of fairness,
00:42:31Aurora and Chloe both come with me to the examination room.
00:42:34Everyone else stays here.
00:42:37Now this is going to be interesting.
00:42:41Aurora,
00:42:41Chloe,
00:42:42step up one at a time.
00:42:47Aurora,
00:42:48clean.
00:42:51Chloe,
00:42:52you seem nervous.
00:42:59an energy transfer device.
00:43:01That's not mine!
00:43:03I don't know how it got there!
00:43:05Oh, really?
00:43:05It grew legs and crawled there on its own?
00:43:07During the test,
00:43:08someone used this
00:43:09to temporarily transfer energy to you,
00:43:12helping you complete the assessment.
00:43:14Isn't that right, Chloe?
00:43:15Looks like the real cheater
00:43:17isn't who everyone thought.
00:43:21That's an energy transfer device!
00:43:23So Aurora really did cheat!
00:43:25She'll do anything to win that bet!
00:43:28Quiet!
00:43:29Here's my ruling.
00:43:31The student who cheated
00:43:32was Chloe.
00:43:35What?
00:43:35It was Chloe?
00:43:36Nullified?
00:43:37Can she even graduate?
00:43:37A formal demerriage will be issued
00:43:39and her test scores are nullified.
00:43:42If you breathe a word about me,
00:43:44you're done.
00:43:46Now,
00:43:46does anyone else want to accuse me
00:43:48of cheating?
00:43:49Given that a cheat device
00:43:50was involved during the test,
00:43:51in the interest of
00:43:52fully settling this dispute,
00:43:54Aurora,
00:43:54are you willing to retest?
00:43:56Absolutely.
00:43:56And let a certain someone lose
00:43:58without any excuses.
00:44:00The retest will be
00:44:02defensive stabilization.
00:44:04Each tester protects
00:44:05their own core sphere.
00:44:06Fewer hits on the core
00:44:07within the time limit
00:44:08means a higher score.
00:44:10Aurora, Serena,
00:44:11begin.
00:44:17That's Serena for you!
00:44:19So precise!
00:44:20So elegant!
00:44:26I told you!
00:44:28She has no idea
00:44:29what she's doing!
00:44:30She's always been good
00:44:31at one thing,
00:44:32messing up.
00:44:40I'd quit now
00:44:41if I were you!
00:44:53I'd quit now
00:44:54Serena, point deducted!
00:45:23Serena, point deducted!
00:45:25Serena, point deducted!
00:45:27How is this possible?
00:45:31The result of this test?
00:45:33Aurora wins.
00:45:34Her performance
00:45:35speaks for itself,
00:45:36no cheating involved.
00:45:41Now,
00:45:41should we talk about our bet?
00:45:48Retest is done.
00:45:49I didn't cheat.
00:45:50Time to settle the bet.
00:45:51It's just one test.
00:45:53Do you have to be
00:45:54this relentless about it?
00:45:55Relentless?
00:45:56You're the ones
00:45:57who accused me of cheating
00:45:58and then got caught
00:45:58cheating yourselves.
00:45:59And now you won't pay up?
00:46:01Julian,
00:46:02bra and skirt,
00:46:03energy restraint rings,
00:46:0515 burpees
00:46:05in front of the whole school,
00:46:07then 10 laps
00:46:07around the track.
00:46:08You apologize
00:46:09the entire time you run.
00:46:11In your dreams!
00:46:13Aurora, enough!
00:46:14Julian is still-
00:46:15Oh, right.
00:46:16You too.
00:46:17The teacher gave you
00:46:18a chance to make things right,
00:46:19but left your punishment
00:46:20up to me.
00:46:21you're joining Julian.
00:46:23No.
00:46:26Oh, Chloe.
00:46:28Since your loyalty
00:46:29to Julian is so deep,
00:46:31I'll allow it.
00:46:32You can run his 10 laps
00:46:34for him.
00:46:3510 laps?
00:46:35I'll die!
00:46:36Chloe, you're the one
00:46:37who started all of this.
00:46:39Julian got dragged into it
00:46:40trying to protect everyone.
00:46:41You want to make it easier
00:46:42on him, don't you?
00:46:43I-I-I go.
00:46:45Or I won't hesitate
00:46:46to expose every time
00:46:47I helped you cheat
00:46:48over the past few years.
00:46:52Don't try to use
00:46:53your ability.
00:46:54It'll only make it worse.
00:46:59She passed out!
00:47:00Get her to the nurse's office!
00:47:12Happy now?
00:47:14That look suits you, actually.
00:47:22Feeling any better?
00:47:24Aurora,
00:47:25we can't let her
00:47:26get away with this.
00:47:28She's always running around
00:47:29with that older man
00:47:30from outside school,
00:47:31right?
00:47:31A young girl
00:47:32suddenly hang around
00:47:33some older guy,
00:47:34suddenly flush with money.
00:47:37We all know
00:47:37what that means.
00:47:39You mean?
00:47:41All we need to do
00:47:42is find the right
00:47:42public moment
00:47:43to put it out there.
00:47:44It'll be quite the show.
00:47:55Aurora?
00:48:17Why aren't you
00:48:18in the training room?
00:48:19Training's on hold tonight.
00:48:21On hold?
00:48:22because tonight
00:48:23I'm celebrating
00:48:25your birthday.
00:48:26How did you know?
00:48:36That's...
00:48:41Leo, isn't it?
00:48:43Beautiful
00:48:44and perfect
00:48:45control.
00:48:48You can actually
00:48:50do this now.
00:48:52Congratulations.
00:48:52I mean it.
00:48:53Congratulations.
00:48:54This is
00:48:56the best gift
00:48:57I've ever received.
00:49:00Then I need you
00:49:01to promise me something.
00:49:02Anything.
00:49:03Tomorrow,
00:49:04all our classmates
00:49:05are going to the beach.
00:49:07Will you come?
00:49:24got another one!
00:49:27Aurora?
00:49:28Why is it always her?
00:49:30Don't lose your nerve.
00:49:31Win it back.
00:49:38Her ability
00:49:39is so unfair!
00:49:40Just a harmless
00:49:41little current.
00:49:42It won't hurt you.
00:49:43Feel free to use
00:49:44your light whip
00:49:44if you want.
00:49:46Again!
00:49:50Put away
00:49:51that useless whip!
00:49:52You can't manage
00:49:52your ability
00:49:53and play at the same time.
00:49:54You're just getting
00:49:54in the way.
00:49:55But Aurora can do it.
00:49:56When did she get
00:49:57this good?
00:50:10That's fast!
00:50:22You okay?
00:50:28Who is he?
00:50:30He's gorgeous!
00:50:32This scene!
00:50:33I can barely breathe!
00:50:37I'm fine.
00:50:40Let me handle him.
00:50:48He's unreal.
00:50:50How does Aurora know
00:50:51someone like him?
00:51:03How is anyone
00:51:04supposed to return that?
00:51:14That easy?
00:51:25He returned all of them?
00:51:28How is that possible?
00:51:30Julian's speed
00:51:31looks like
00:51:32child's play
00:51:33next to him.
00:51:42His rhythm is breaking
00:51:44down.
00:51:45Opening
00:51:46on the left.
00:51:55Aurora.
00:52:09They won?
00:52:10That was brutal.
00:52:12You were incredible.
00:52:14Your reaction
00:52:14was fast enough too.
00:52:16Really?
00:52:21They are so
00:52:22in sync.
00:52:24That last move?
00:52:26Aurora,
00:52:27drop the act.
00:52:28Everything you have,
00:52:30you won it because of a man,
00:52:31didn't you?
00:52:34Who was that old man
00:52:36who picked you up
00:52:36at school every day?
00:52:37Did you think
00:52:38no one noticed?
00:52:39Shut up.
00:52:40Sir,
00:52:41I'm saying this
00:52:41for your own good.
00:52:42Don't be fooled by her.
00:52:43She's not as innocent
00:52:44as she looks.
00:52:45She's just a servant's daughter
00:52:46who's happy to let
00:52:47some old guy
00:52:47pay her way.
00:52:50You actually hit me?
00:52:52Say it again.
00:52:53Go ahead.
00:52:54You actually hit me?
00:52:57That was the light version.
00:52:58Say one more thing
00:52:59against Aurora
00:53:00and you won't be
00:53:01walking home today.
00:53:03That was too far.
00:53:05We're just worried
00:53:06about Aurora
00:53:07being taken advantage of.
00:53:08We were just reminding her
00:53:09as friends.
00:53:11Your idea of reminding her
00:53:12is spreading filthy lies
00:53:13about her?
00:53:14But isn't she
00:53:16the one chasing you?
00:53:17The more you know
00:53:18about her situation,
00:53:19the better.
00:53:20Let me clarify.
00:53:22Aurora is not chasing me.
00:53:24I'm the one pursuing her.
00:53:26Impossible!
00:53:27Why would you want her?
00:53:29She's already been
00:53:29with an old...
00:53:33I mean it.
00:53:36Yes.
00:53:37You can pursue me.
00:53:39Aurora!
00:53:39Done performing?
00:53:40You were nothing but a simp.
00:53:42The whole school
00:53:42saw how you chased me.
00:53:43Now you lash into someone new
00:53:45and pretend you're above it all?
00:53:47You think I can't
00:53:47see through this?
00:53:48You just want to make me jealous.
00:53:50Fine.
00:53:51I'll give you a chance.
00:53:53Come back now
00:53:53and I'll consider
00:53:54making you my girlfriend.
00:53:56Julian,
00:53:56you are a joke.
00:53:58I was the one
00:53:58who was blind.
00:53:59I took you way too seriously now.
00:54:01You're not even worth
00:54:02the dog shit on the ground.
00:54:03Aurora!
00:54:04Who exactly do you think
00:54:05you are?
00:54:05That the world revolves
00:54:07around you?
00:54:07You're with Serena
00:54:09and you're standing
00:54:10right next to her
00:54:10saying this.
00:54:11You don't even find
00:54:12that embarrassing?
00:54:13I feel bad for her.
00:54:15Is your forgiveness
00:54:16supposed to be worth something?
00:54:17Keep it for yourself.
00:54:19Fine.
00:54:19Very fine.
00:54:21Aurora,
00:54:21you'll regret this.
00:54:24Julian made a complete
00:54:25fool of himself today.
00:54:27Why does this moron
00:54:27get to be pursued
00:54:28by someone like Leon
00:54:29while I'm stuck
00:54:30with a broke loser
00:54:31like Julian?
00:54:33Don't be upset.
00:54:34Everything I said back there,
00:54:36I was just annoyed
00:54:36at Aurora
00:54:37for being so full of herself.
00:54:38I said it to get a reaction.
00:54:40You're the one
00:54:40I want to be with.
00:54:41I'm not giving her
00:54:42any opening.
00:54:43I know,
00:54:44I just feel a little
00:54:45beaten down.
00:54:46She has that older man
00:54:48protecting her
00:54:48and now she has someone
00:54:49like Leon at her side.
00:54:51No matter what I do,
00:54:52I just can't measure up to her.
00:54:54Oh, stop.
00:54:55Someone like Aurora
00:54:56doesn't compare to you.
00:54:58Come on.
00:54:59We've been playing for hours.
00:55:00You must be hungry.
00:55:01Tonight,
00:55:01whatever you want.
00:55:02My treat.
00:55:03Really?
00:55:04Of course.
00:55:05Go ahead.
00:55:08I'll have the lobster pasta,
00:55:09the charcoal grilled wagyu,
00:55:11a dozen oysters,
00:55:13truffle fries,
00:55:14and a sea salt caramel souffle.
00:55:15Best champagne you have.
00:55:19Somebody's ordering big.
00:55:20Which rich kid is this?
00:55:32Check, please.
00:55:39Payment declined insufficient funds.
00:55:43Try again.
00:55:43Payment declined insufficient funds.
00:55:46You can't pay
00:55:46and you ordered all that?
00:55:47From the way he was acting,
00:55:48I actually thought
00:55:48he was somebody.
00:55:50Sir,
00:55:50would you like to try
00:55:51a different payment method?
00:55:54Dad,
00:55:55what happened
00:55:55to the money in my account?
00:55:56I needed it,
00:55:57so I moved it.
00:55:58Did you gamble it away again?
00:56:00Shut your mouth.
00:56:01You don't get to lecture me.
00:56:02By the way,
00:56:03you're on your own
00:56:03for next year's tuition.
00:56:05So he's broke.
00:56:06Showing off like that
00:56:07and now no one's here
00:56:08to bail him out.
00:56:09I see now.
00:56:10You're not a rich heir at all.
00:56:12The one with real money
00:56:12is Aurora.
00:56:13You're just a broke loser
00:56:14she's been supporting.
00:56:15Julian,
00:56:17I'm suddenly not hungry anymore.
00:56:19You finish up.
00:56:21Serena,
00:56:22let me explain.
00:56:23The money was just
00:56:24temporarily moved by my dad.
00:56:26I'll figure out a way
00:56:27to earn it back.
00:56:28I swear I won't let you down.
00:56:31Julian,
00:56:32a whole month of part-time work,
00:56:33probably pays less than one day
00:56:35as Aurora's private ability coach.
00:56:37Am I wrong?
00:56:38What are you saying?
00:56:39It's very simple.
00:56:40What you need to do right now
00:56:41is go to Aurora
00:56:43and ask her to hire you back
00:56:44as her coach.
00:56:46I finally got free of that woman.
00:56:47Just want to be with you now
00:56:49and you're telling me
00:56:49to go back and work for her?
00:56:50I'm thinking
00:56:52about you.
00:56:53What you need most right now
00:56:54is money.
00:56:55Coaching her
00:56:56pays more than any odd job
00:56:57you could pick up outside.
00:56:58And your dad's debt,
00:56:59that has to be handled first,
00:57:01doesn't it?
00:57:02I don't want to do this.
00:57:03What's the big deal?
00:57:04I'm just asking you
00:57:05to go earn money from her,
00:57:06not to get back together
00:57:07where we're with her.
00:57:09You're broke.
00:57:11If you don't earn something,
00:57:13what exactly do I have to spend?
00:57:15All right.
00:57:16I'm just looking out for you.
00:57:18If you're too embarrassed
00:57:19to ask her yourself,
00:57:20I'll go say it for you.
00:57:22Would she even
00:57:23take me back at this point?
00:57:25Did you mean
00:57:26what you said earlier?
00:57:28Which part?
00:57:31That you're the one
00:57:33pursuing me?
00:57:35Yes.
00:57:36It's always been true.
00:57:39Aurora,
00:57:40I need to ask you something.
00:57:43What is it?
00:57:44Could you
00:57:45let Julian
00:57:46continue as your ability coach?
00:57:48Seriously?
00:57:50You interrupted my evening
00:57:51for this?
00:57:53Julian is really struggling
00:57:54right now.
00:57:55You've probably heard
00:57:55about his father.
00:57:57Your family has plenty of money
00:57:58and Julian's ability is strong.
00:58:00If you agree,
00:58:00I promise he'll take
00:58:01the coaching seriously this time.
00:58:03Do you think I'm stupid?
00:58:04The two of you are together now
00:58:05and you want me to pay him
00:58:06a salary and effectively
00:58:07support both of you?
00:58:09Aurora,
00:58:11I'm willing to forgive
00:58:12everything you've done.
00:58:12From now on,
00:58:13we keep it strictly professional.
00:58:15Coach and student,
00:58:16that's all.
00:58:18I remember someone
00:58:19just said
00:58:20he'd never forgive me.
00:58:24Aurora,
00:58:25if the only reason
00:58:26you're shutting Julian out
00:58:27is because of me and him,
00:58:29I can break up with him.
00:58:31Please don't.
00:58:32Then he'll turn around
00:58:33and say I forced you
00:58:35to leave him.
00:58:36I get it, Aurora.
00:58:37You're just still
00:58:38holding a grudge,
00:58:39aren't you?
00:58:39Stop pretending to know me.
00:58:41Let's talk about you,
00:58:42Serena.
00:58:43You like Julian
00:58:44because he was
00:58:45the top student,
00:58:46the school's heartthrob,
00:58:47everyone's chosen heir.
00:58:49Now that you've found out
00:58:50he's not rich at all,
00:58:51his dad's a gambler
00:58:52buried in debt,
00:58:53you've changed your mind.
00:58:55You want to turn him
00:58:56into a money-making tool
00:58:58so you can slowly discard him
00:59:00and move on to someone
00:59:01with better prospects,
00:59:03right?
00:59:03Who gave you the right
00:59:04to say that?
00:59:05I just think Julian
00:59:06deserves a better future,
00:59:07right?
00:59:08And without a better future,
00:59:10how could he keep
00:59:11spending money on you?
00:59:12Aurora,
00:59:12enough.
00:59:13I've always believed
00:59:14women should support
00:59:15each other,
00:59:15but you've been reading
00:59:16the worst possible intentions
00:59:17into everything I do.
00:59:19Hearing that from you
00:59:20is quite something.
00:59:22Isn't giving you a chance
00:59:23to get close to Julia
00:59:24a good thing?
00:59:25You love him.
00:59:26After all,
00:59:28keep your charity.
00:59:30I don't collect garbage.
00:59:33Aurora,
00:59:34enough!
00:59:35Stop going after Serena!
00:59:39You got sold out
00:59:40and you're still counting
00:59:41the money for them.
00:59:42What did you say?
00:59:42Serena thinks you're broke,
00:59:43thinks you're a burden,
00:59:44thinks your dad
00:59:45is an embarrassment
00:59:46and she's putting on
00:59:47this whole act
00:59:47of self-sacrifice
00:59:48while pushing you
00:59:49back at me
00:59:50and you're still
00:59:50defending her?
00:59:51Julian,
00:59:52you're a complete idiot.
00:59:54Julian,
00:59:55don't!
00:59:56Aurora and I just
00:59:57have a misunderstanding.
00:59:58Julian,
00:59:59I have a better coach now
01:00:00and a better boyfriend.
01:00:02Someone like you,
01:00:03not a consideration.
01:00:05Aurora,
01:00:06don't think bringing
01:00:06some random guy
01:00:07to make me jealous
01:00:08is going to change anything!
01:00:09Aurora,
01:00:10ignore him.
01:00:11Let's go.
01:00:15Julian doesn't have
01:00:16much use left,
01:00:17but Leon,
01:00:18I need to find a way
01:00:18to push Aurora
01:00:19and Julian back together.
01:00:21That would give me
01:00:21a way to get close
01:00:22to Leon.
01:00:24a better coach,
01:00:26better boyfriend.
01:00:28Hmm?
01:00:29What?
01:00:29Any objections?
01:00:31I think
01:00:31I need to earn
01:00:33those words.
01:00:36From here on,
01:00:37I'm training you
01:00:38to be number one
01:00:39in the year.
01:00:39I want you to surpass
01:00:40Julia and Serena
01:00:41in all four areas.
01:00:43Combined combat,
01:00:44precision control,
01:00:45sustained output,
01:00:45and environmental takeover.
01:00:47At this year's
01:00:47graduation ceremony,
01:00:49you'll stand on that stage
01:00:50as the student representative.
01:00:51Everyone who ever
01:00:52called you a failure
01:00:53will have to look up at you.
01:00:55In my past life,
01:00:56I was useless in the war.
01:00:57I died with the name
01:00:58of a failure
01:00:59while Julian and Serena
01:01:00walked over my father's body.
01:01:02This time,
01:01:03I will make myself
01:01:04strong enough.
01:01:05Strong enough
01:01:06to defeat them both.
01:01:08Yes.
01:01:09I'm going to be number one.
01:01:11I'm going to surpass
01:01:12Julian and Serena.
01:01:13You will.
01:01:14One more thing.
01:01:16Stay away from Julian.
01:01:17I looked into
01:01:18his family background.
01:01:19His father was
01:01:19a former gang member.
01:01:20Alcoholic,
01:01:21compulsive gambler,
01:01:22I know.
01:01:23I already know
01:01:23all of it.
01:01:24Julian,
01:01:25Carl,
01:01:26you won't get a dime
01:01:28out of me this time.
01:01:33You actually came back?
01:01:34You stole from me again.
01:01:37Stole?
01:01:38You're going to hold
01:01:38a little money
01:01:39against your own father?
01:01:40That was my tuition
01:01:41for Nexi My City.
01:01:42Tuition?
01:01:43When you were living
01:01:44at the Hale Estate,
01:01:45you never once asked me
01:01:46for tuition money.
01:01:47When you were with Aurora,
01:01:49you were bringing home cash,
01:01:50hand over win.
01:01:50You remember
01:01:51how we lived?
01:01:52And now,
01:01:53you screwed it all up.
01:01:56Shut up.
01:01:57You shut up!
01:01:58A brainless heiress
01:01:59like Aurora,
01:02:00you should have had her
01:02:00completely wrapped
01:02:01around your finger,
01:02:02and you couldn't even
01:02:03keep up the act.
01:02:04Look what you've done
01:02:05to me!
01:02:05Tomorrow,
01:02:06you go to Aurora
01:02:07and apologize.
01:02:08Get her to hire you
01:02:09back as her coach.
01:02:10No.
01:02:12You're going
01:02:12whether you want to
01:02:13or not.
01:02:14Otherwise,
01:02:15I'd beat you
01:02:15every day
01:02:16until you do.
01:02:17Carl!
01:02:17Get out here!
01:02:21Three months,
01:02:22Carl.
01:02:23When are you
01:02:23planning to pay me back?
01:02:25Zane,
01:02:25just give me
01:02:26two more days.
01:02:26I'll figure something out.
01:02:28Figure what out?
01:02:30Give him the money!
01:02:35I don't have a cent!
01:02:37No money?
01:02:38Then why did you
01:02:39even come back?
01:02:42Drop the act,
01:02:43Carl.
01:02:44Boys,
01:02:45beat them both.
01:02:51Stop!
01:02:52Stop!
01:02:53Stop hitting!
01:02:54You're going
01:02:55to kill us!
01:02:57Can't pay your debts?
01:02:58This is what you deserve.
01:02:59I have a plan.
01:03:00There's a rich iress
01:03:01who's crazy about my son.
01:03:02Her father is Victor Hall.
01:03:03Three million,
01:03:03five million,
01:03:04it's nothing to her.
01:03:04Is that right?
01:03:05If my son is in trouble,
01:03:06she'll pay.
01:03:07She always does.
01:03:08Fine.
01:03:08Tomorrow at noon,
01:03:09if I don't see three million,
01:03:10I kill your son.
01:03:12Miss Hale!
01:03:13Save Julian!
01:03:14He's been taken!
01:03:15The kidnappers want
01:03:15three million!
01:03:17Kidnappers,
01:03:17then call the police.
01:03:18What are you coming
01:03:18to me for?
01:03:19We can't call the police!
01:03:20They'll kill him!
01:03:21Miss Hale,
01:03:22I'm begging you,
01:03:22please save him!
01:03:24Whether he lives or dies,
01:03:25what does that have
01:03:26to do with me?
01:03:27Miss Hale,
01:03:27you're just angry at him.
01:03:29When he comes back,
01:03:29I'll have him on his knees
01:03:30begging to make things
01:03:31right with you.
01:03:31How about that?
01:03:32No need.
01:03:33I'd be thrilled
01:03:33if he never came back.
01:03:35Though if he dragged
01:03:35himself back missing
01:03:36an arm or a leg,
01:03:37that might actually be fun.
01:03:39He's your son,
01:03:40not mine.
01:03:41The Hale family
01:03:42bullies their employees.
01:03:44You leave people to die!
01:03:46My son and I gave years
01:03:48of our lives to this family,
01:03:49and this is how you treat them?
01:03:52If you don't agree today,
01:03:54I'm staying here
01:03:55until I die!
01:03:57Fine.
01:03:58I'm not sticking around
01:03:58for this.
01:03:59Miss Hale,
01:04:00you can't be this cruel!
01:04:01Carl,
01:04:02what's going on?
01:04:03Mr. Hale,
01:04:03please,
01:04:04Julian's been taken.
01:04:05They want three million,
01:04:06and the young miss
01:04:07won't help me!
01:04:08Three million.
01:04:08Give it to him.
01:04:09and send him away.
01:04:10Thank you,
01:04:11Mr. Hale!
01:04:12Thank you!
01:04:13I know Julian is no good.
01:04:15Take the ransom money
01:04:16to them yourself.
01:04:17His life is in your hands now.
01:04:19How you let off steam
01:04:20is entirely up to you.
01:04:21Understood,
01:04:22Dad.
01:04:26Miss,
01:04:26here he is.
01:04:27Oh,
01:04:27you knocked him out?
01:04:28Oh,
01:04:28we had no way of knowing
01:04:29he was a friend of yours.
01:04:31No,
01:04:31I meant,
01:04:32you could have been
01:04:33a bit rougher
01:04:33to wake him up.
01:04:34I understand,
01:04:35I understand this.
01:04:35Keep going!
01:04:37Stop!
01:04:38Stop it!
01:04:40Keep going!
01:04:43Stop!
01:04:44Please don't!
01:04:45Please don't!
01:04:46Crack a little girl like me!
01:04:48How could I possibly
01:04:49stop any of you?
01:04:50Don't stop!
01:04:51Keep going!
01:04:52Stop!
01:04:53Please don't hit him anymore!
01:04:55He's an honor student
01:04:57and the heir to the Hal estate!
01:04:59Aurora,
01:05:01help me.
01:05:02What if you cripple him?
01:05:03What if you ruin his face?
01:05:04You're so cruel,
01:05:05really stop!
01:05:08How do I know
01:05:09you're actually trying to save him
01:05:10and not just stall him?
01:05:11Boys,
01:05:12wait for the money
01:05:13and keep hitting.
01:05:14Let's see which comes first,
01:05:16the cash or the funeral.
01:05:18Does it hurt?
01:05:19This doesn't even come close
01:05:21to one ten thousandth
01:05:22of what I suffered
01:05:23in my past life.
01:05:28Aurora,
01:05:29you came for me?
01:05:31Of course.
01:05:32Your father came to our home
01:05:33begging in tears
01:05:34for three million.
01:05:35My father didn't want to,
01:05:37luckily I spoke up for you.
01:05:38Julian,
01:05:39now you know who actually
01:05:40cares about you,
01:05:41don't you?
01:05:42Everything before,
01:05:43that was all my fault.
01:05:44I swear,
01:05:45from now on,
01:05:46I'll treat you right.
01:05:47Good.
01:05:48Let me get someone
01:05:48to take you to the hospital first.
01:05:52Aurora,
01:05:53for you,
01:05:54your favorite,
01:05:55hazelnut latte.
01:05:56I went out of my way
01:05:57to get it.
01:05:58Your memory's as bad as ever.
01:06:00I stopped drinking that
01:06:01a long time ago.
01:06:02That's fine.
01:06:03I also got an ice americano
01:06:04with a double shot.
01:06:05Weren't you into strong coffee lately?
01:06:08Aurora,
01:06:09I made this for you myself.
01:06:14Wow,
01:06:15that's a full spread.
01:06:17That's incredible.
01:06:19Now this is something,
01:06:20Leon.
01:06:22Aurora,
01:06:22are you messing with me?
01:06:28You do realize
01:06:29drinking coffee
01:06:30on an empty stomach
01:06:31is hard on Aurora's stomach,
01:06:33right?
01:06:36Aurora!
01:06:38What exactly is going on
01:06:40between you and Leon?
01:06:41Are you already together?
01:06:43Let go,
01:06:43you're hurting me.
01:06:44Stop acting.
01:06:45I can see it.
01:06:46Every time you look at him,
01:06:47your eyes are different.
01:06:49You never looked at me that way.
01:06:50Does that hurt?
01:06:52I've been there
01:06:53a thousand times worse.
01:06:54I gave you everything
01:06:56and you stepped on me
01:06:57and played me for a fool.
01:07:00Aurora,
01:07:01what's gotten into you?
01:07:02When did I ever deceive you?
01:07:04Stop performing.
01:07:06Okay,
01:07:07I admit there was something
01:07:08between Serena and me before,
01:07:09but since I cleared the air with you,
01:07:11I've been serious.
01:07:13Why can't you just-
01:07:14Get off me!
01:07:16You still care about me.
01:07:18I know you do.
01:07:20Ugh!
01:07:23Didn't you hear her say,
01:07:24get off?
01:07:24What does this have to do with you?
01:07:25Do you have any idea
01:07:26how much Aurora was in love with me?
01:07:28She's with you now
01:07:28just to boost her scores
01:07:29and make me notice her.
01:07:30You really think you have any right
01:07:32to play hero for her?
01:07:33I was actually gonna string you along
01:07:34a bit longer,
01:07:35let you find out what it's like
01:07:36to pour your heart out
01:07:37to someone who treats it like garbage.
01:07:39But who the hell do you think
01:07:40you are speaking to Leon like that?
01:07:42Stay away from me from now on.
01:07:44Come near me one more time
01:07:45and I'll make you look
01:07:46a lot worse than today.
01:07:51Sorry, I almost failed
01:07:52to protect you.
01:07:54It wasn't your fault.
01:07:56I was the one
01:07:57who was too naive before.
01:07:58At least this time,
01:07:59I didn't let him
01:08:00get what he wanted.
01:08:02Aurora,
01:08:03did he hurt you
01:08:04like this before?
01:08:05In the past?
01:08:07I once had a dream.
01:08:09In the dream,
01:08:10I couldn't see
01:08:10someone's true face
01:08:11no matter how hard I tried.
01:08:12I gave him everything I had
01:08:14and in the end,
01:08:15he got me killed.
01:08:16That person was Julian?
01:08:17I regretted it.
01:08:18I couldn't accept it,
01:08:19but the dream ended.
01:08:20I woke up.
01:08:25Was I in your dream?
01:08:30Yes!
01:08:31At the very end
01:08:32of the dream,
01:08:32you appeared.
01:08:33And after that,
01:08:34everything was better.
01:08:36Once the graduation ceremony
01:08:37is over,
01:08:38I'll tell you
01:08:39the rest of the story.
01:08:40Good.
01:08:40I'll wait.
01:08:42Oh!
01:08:43You've been confirmed
01:08:44as this year's
01:08:45student representative
01:08:46for the graduation ceremony.
01:08:48After the ceremony,
01:08:49I have something for you.
01:08:50Thank you in advance.
01:08:52Everything I've achieved,
01:08:53that's all down to my coach.
01:09:06My darling girl,
01:09:07don't be nervous tonight.
01:09:09Dad can't wait
01:09:10to hear your speech.
01:09:12Don't worry.
01:09:13I won't disappoint you.
01:09:15Go on in.
01:09:16You took my spot
01:09:18as student representative,
01:09:19and now you think
01:09:20you're going to stand
01:09:21on that stage and shine?
01:09:23Aurora,
01:09:23I will ruin you
01:09:24in front of the entire school.
01:09:30Tonight is our graduation ceremony
01:09:32and our night of honors.
01:09:33This school was established
01:09:35through the efforts
01:09:35of our mutant war hero,
01:09:36Victor Holt.
01:09:37Our school motto
01:09:38has always been
01:09:39one line to let mutants
01:09:41and humans grow together
01:09:42under the same sky
01:09:43and flourish as one.
01:09:44Each of you seated here tonight
01:09:45has passed seven years
01:09:46of this school's trial.
01:09:47Now,
01:09:48please welcome
01:09:49this year's student representative
01:09:51to the stage
01:09:51for the commencement address.
01:09:54Good evening,
01:09:55everyone.
01:09:56I'm your student representative
01:09:57for tonight,
01:09:58and I'm proud
01:09:58to be standing here.
01:10:00For a long time,
01:10:01I was not someone
01:10:02others considered
01:10:02worthy of this school,
01:10:03but today,
01:10:04I want to start
01:10:04by saying thank you
01:10:05to...
01:10:06I have an accusation!
01:10:14Aurora has no right
01:10:16to stand here.
01:10:18She has no morals.
01:10:20She's some old man's
01:10:21kept woman
01:10:21spending his money
01:10:22bullying her classmates,
01:10:24and now she gets to stand
01:10:25on this stage
01:10:25as student representative?
01:10:27I'm making this accusation
01:10:28under my own name.
01:10:35Everyone,
01:10:36look at the evidence.
01:10:38Aurora and this older man,
01:10:39look how close they are.
01:10:40She used this disgusting relationship
01:10:42to get money
01:10:43and status she never earned.
01:10:45A disgrace like her,
01:10:46what right does she have
01:10:47to represent us?
01:10:50So it's actually true,
01:10:51she really is being
01:10:52kept by some old man.
01:10:53Aurora,
01:10:54your taste is something else.
01:10:56Old and bald,
01:10:58and you still went for it?
01:10:59Old and bald.
01:11:02Sir,
01:11:03these students are out of line.
01:11:05I'll handle it immediately.
01:11:06No need.
01:11:08I'd like to see
01:11:09how this plays out.
01:11:13This is the man
01:11:15you're calling
01:11:15my keeper?
01:11:17The evidence
01:11:17is right there.
01:11:18Are you going to deny it?
01:11:19You're not wrong.
01:11:21He is someone I love.
01:11:27Though at the moment,
01:11:28he can only rank second
01:11:29among the men I love.
01:11:32You're actually admitting it?
01:11:34Aurora,
01:11:35you've got absolutely
01:11:36no shame
01:11:36when it comes to money.
01:11:37You actually like
01:11:38some old bald man?
01:11:40I said I love him.
01:11:41Is there a problem
01:11:42with that?
01:11:43Are we not allowed
01:11:44to tell the truth now?
01:11:46Aurora,
01:11:47you have absolutely
01:11:49no shame.
01:11:50Every school board member
01:11:51is here tonight.
01:11:52You're saying this
01:11:52in front of the entire school.
01:11:53Do you feel
01:11:54no embarrassment
01:11:55whatsoever?
01:11:56Someone like her
01:11:56should be expelled!
01:11:57Exactly,
01:11:58expeller!
01:11:58Student representative,
01:11:59her?
01:11:59Julian,
01:12:00you know her better
01:12:00than anyone.
01:12:01Tell us,
01:12:01is she being kept
01:12:02or not?
01:12:02Right,
01:12:03you were her coach.
01:12:03You must know.
01:12:04Julian,
01:12:05I'm giving you
01:12:06one last chance.
01:12:08You tell everyone
01:12:09what is the relationship
01:12:11between me
01:12:12and the man
01:12:12in that photo.
01:12:17The person
01:12:17in the photo
01:12:18is no.
01:12:19If I say it,
01:12:20what happens
01:12:21to Serena?
01:12:22This photo
01:12:23is beyond
01:12:24appropriate.
01:12:25Aurora,
01:12:25if you apologize
01:12:26right now,
01:12:27you can still
01:12:28walk away
01:12:28with some dignity.
01:12:30Julian,
01:12:31you really
01:12:31haven't changed
01:12:32at all.
01:12:32Still love
01:12:33turning everything
01:12:33on its head.
01:12:35Aurora,
01:12:35don't change
01:12:36the subject.
01:12:36You're the one
01:12:37changing the subject,
01:12:38fine.
01:12:38Since you want
01:12:39to burn it all
01:12:39down in front
01:12:40of the whole school,
01:12:40I'll lay everything
01:12:41out.
01:12:42Julian,
01:12:42you drove my car,
01:12:43lived in my estate,
01:12:44spent my money
01:12:44buying gifts
01:12:45for Serena,
01:12:46impersonated a wealthy heir,
01:12:47and spread rumors
01:12:47that I was a servant's
01:12:48daughter.
01:12:49You've played
01:12:49Lord Julian for so long.
01:12:50Did you actually
01:12:51start believing it?
01:12:52What?
01:12:53Julian's money
01:12:53was all from Aurora?
01:12:54He's not Victor
01:12:55Hale's chosen heir?
01:12:56She's lying!
01:12:57Shut up,
01:12:57Chloe.
01:12:59Julian for what
01:12:59he really is.
01:13:00He's nothing but a coach
01:13:01who wormed his way
01:13:02into the Hale estate
01:13:03and stole my identity
01:13:04to lord it over
01:13:05all of you.
01:13:08Quiet!
01:13:09Everyone quiet!
01:13:10Enough.
01:13:13Victor Hale?
01:13:14The war hero?
01:13:16Doesn't he never
01:13:16appear in public?
01:13:17I am disappointed.
01:13:19Since this school
01:13:20was founded,
01:13:20I have emphasized
01:13:21only one thing,
01:13:22peace.
01:13:23Peace is not words.
01:13:24It is not applause
01:13:25in an auditorium
01:13:26while saying
01:13:27mutual prosperity.
01:13:28Peace begins
01:13:29with the most
01:13:29basic respect.
01:13:30Respect for other
01:13:31people.
01:13:31Respect for the truth.
01:13:33Didn't you all
01:13:33just spell it out
01:13:34clearly?
01:13:35Anyone with no morals,
01:13:37anyone who harms
01:13:38fellow students,
01:13:39anyone who corrupts
01:13:40this school's culture
01:13:41should be expelled.
01:13:43So let's follow
01:13:44your own rule.
01:13:45Aurora,
01:13:45what are you still
01:13:46standing there for?
01:13:47Go pack your things
01:13:48and get out of this
01:13:49school.
01:13:50You misunderstood.
01:13:55No way!
01:13:56He's...
01:13:56Does that mean?
01:13:57That's right.
01:13:58The man you've been
01:13:59calling old and bold
01:14:01is me.
01:14:02Aurora is my
01:14:02one and only daughter.
01:14:03Aurora is actually
01:14:05Victor Hale's daughter?
01:14:06Oh my God!
01:14:07Serena and the others
01:14:08are finished.
01:14:09Oh my God!
01:14:15Principal,
01:14:15it's in your hands
01:14:16from here.
01:14:18The school has
01:14:19confirmed the following.
01:14:20All students involved
01:14:21in tonight's
01:14:22malicious rumor
01:14:23spreading are hereby
01:14:24expelled.
01:14:24Primary instigators,
01:14:26Serena Vale
01:14:26and Chloe Mercer,
01:14:28effective immediately.
01:14:30I didn't mean to!
01:14:32No!
01:14:34This can't be happening!
01:14:38It's a shame, Julian.
01:14:39You're a remarkably
01:14:39talented young man.
01:14:40I had originally
01:14:41planned to recommend
01:14:42you to the defense
01:14:43ministry when you
01:14:44graduated.
01:14:44Your conduct
01:14:45is beneath contempt.
01:14:46Stay away from
01:14:47Aurora from now on.
01:14:48By the way,
01:14:49my daughter is not
01:14:49involved with anyone
01:14:50other than her
01:14:51fiance, Mr. Hart.
01:14:52I heard that
01:14:54the position of my
01:14:55daughter's most
01:14:56loved man.
01:14:56You stole that
01:14:57from me.
01:14:58I apologize, sir.
01:15:00Don't apologize!
01:15:01You earned it!
01:15:02Aurora,
01:15:03I said I had
01:15:04something for you
01:15:04after the ceremony,
01:15:05but I think now
01:15:06is the right moment.
01:15:08Once,
01:15:09I was a step
01:15:10too late.
01:15:11That won't happen
01:15:12again.
01:15:12Aurora Hale,
01:15:13will you marry me?
01:15:17Leon,
01:15:17in my past life,
01:15:18if I could do it
01:15:19all over again,
01:15:20I'd choose you.
01:15:21I would.
01:15:22In my past life,
01:15:23I didn't know
01:15:24who truly loved me
01:15:25until the moment
01:15:25I died.
01:15:26This time,
01:15:27I will not miss it.
01:15:28I do.
01:15:36Future son-in-law,
01:15:38I'll let you pass
01:15:39for now.
01:15:39Don't you dare
01:15:40let my daughter suffer.
01:15:41I promise.
01:15:43I promise.
01:15:45I promise.
01:15:46I promise.
01:15:47I promise.
01:15:49I promise.
01:15:49I promise.
01:15:50I promise.
01:15:52I promise.
01:15:53I promise.
01:15:53I promise.
01:15:54I promise.
01:15:55I promise.
01:15:56I promise.
01:15:57I promise.
01:15:57I promise.
01:15:58I promise.
