00:18:15aurora once that collar is on you can't take it off yourself that'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
00:18:30kinda hard to take seriously
00:18:35not yet
00:18:36julian
00:18:37what 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
00:19:07everyone here knows it
00:19:10julian is the air mr hale personally picked
00:19:12you're just one of the help
00:19:13okay so let's get something straight
00:19:16the real air to the hale estate is
00:19:22yeah? who?
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
00:19:34between the two of us
00:19:35who's the servant and who's the air?
00:19:40aurora, are we done?
00:19:42class is starting, i'm not doing this right now
00:19:45fine, i'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
00:20:01i'm throwing a birthday party at the stellar hotel this weekend
00:20:04you're all invited
00:20:05the stellar hotel?
00:20:07that's like the most exclusive place in the whole city
00:20:09i 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
00:20:18of course he does
00:20:20that's just how he operates
00:20:22i knew it
00:20:23julian only wears the latest everything
00:20:25there's no way he's broke
00:20:27aurora's out here in discount clothes
00:20:28trying 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
00:20:36let's celebrate!
00:20:39everyone's welcome
00:20:41it's on me
00:20:42he's covering everything? seriously?
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
00:20:51made him look incredible
00:20:52never 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
00:21:08he 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

00:21:22it's a hotel
00:21:22i can go wherever i want
00:21:24julian didn't even invite you!
00:21:26are you julian's dog or serena's?
00:21:29neither of them has said anything
00:21:30so what are you barking for?
00:21:34i thought you said you weren't coming
00:21:36oh right it's your birthday

00:21:49so say that again
00:21:51who do you think you are?
00:21:53a servant's daughter putting her hands on her

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, whoever buys, pays
00:25:00excuse me?
00:25:01this is julian's hotel
00:25:03you're seriously gonna charge him?
00:25:05he could have you fired right now
00:25:07yeah, fire him!
00:25:09miss, someone here seems to be trying to skip out on the bill
00:25:12and pass themselves off as the owner
00:25:15wait, who is he talking to?
00:25:17the owner?
00:25:18aurora?
00:25:18no way!
00:25:19this 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, just cover it and we move on
00:25:41don't do this to me right now
00:25:45not really my problem, is it?

00:25:51it is
00:25:51can 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?
00:26:16didn't julian say he was covering everything?
00:26:18aurora, stop messing around and just pay it
00:26:21you want a favor?
00:26:23then ask like you mean it
00:26:26get on your knees and ask me nicely

00:28:11i 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, i know that
00:28:23but your father and i go way back

00:29:06your 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
00:29:36if 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
00:30:01let me be straight with you aurora
00:30:03it doesn't matter what you do
00:30:04i'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
00:30:15now 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
00:30:25i 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 of 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
00:30:44tear me down and drain my ability
00:30:48tell me one actually useful thing you ever did
00:30:50you being bad at this has nothing to do with me
00:30:53your 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
00:31:02fine, you'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
00:31:11score above 800
00:31:14and i'll admit it was my fault
00:31:16that's your idea of stakes?
00:31:18why would anyone take that bet?
00:31:19what more do you want?
00:31:20julian's literally putting himself on the line here
00:31:24fine
00:31:24if i win
00:31:26you put on a bra and a skirt
00:31:28strap on energy restraint rings
00:31:29and run 10 laps around 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
00:31:38You put on a bra and a skirt, strap on energy restraint rings, and run 10 laps around 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.
00:31:56Last 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.
00:32:39All right, all right.
00:32:40Someone messed with you today?
00:32:42No.
00:32:42I've just been thinking.
00:32:44I'm done being at the bottom of the class.
00:32:46I want to actually train.
00:32:48Get 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.
00:33:20That 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?
00:33:39I figured you'd say 800 was way out of reach for someone like me.
00:33:42You're not what they say you are.
00:33:44Your 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.
00:33:57Let's get to work.
00:34:04Again.
00:34:06Again.
00:34:10Again.
00:34:17Yes!
00:34:18That's it!
00:34:18Okay, 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.
00:34:31Just guide it.
00:34:36Easy.
00:34:38Easy.
00:34:38You've got it.
00:34:43There it is!
00:34:47Take them all out.
00:34:59Okay.
00:35:01Wow.
00:35:03You did it!
00:35:04I 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 millstone.
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 was 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?
00:36:03You 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, and you know it.
00:36:15Your attention.
00:36:17Right.
00:36:17Actually, 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.
00:36:31Blue sapphire pieces are for stabilizing your ability.
00:36:35Surprise.
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,
00:36:41you were actually using them to drain me and keep me weak.
00:36:44So I'd have no choice but to keep you around, right?
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.
00:36:57Take your shit and get out.
00:37:00Was that clear enough?
00:37:03Next up is the port coordination test.
00:37:05The rules are simple.
00:37:06Within the time limit,
00:37:07help the workers move your assigned containers from 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?
00:37:56She 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,
00:38:08kind of sad.
00:38:14You look completely lost.
00:38:16Let me help.
00:38:25She can't pull it.
00:38:45She's moving the whole group at once?
00:38:48No.
00:38:49She's going to beat me.
00:38:51I am not losing to you!
00:39:02Chloe 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?
00:39:18Idiot.
00:39:19That 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!
00:39:28The alarm was already going off!
00:39:34No.
00:39:37That can't be right.
00:39:39Aurora Hale, complete.
00:39:41Zero error.
00:39:42Zero risk.
00:39:42Hyatt grade.
00:39:45So, how'd that go for everyone?
00:39:49Aurora's score for the park coordination test is...
00:39:52perfect!
00:39:53Who's building a grid this whole time?
00:39:56She had every single target locked from the start!
00:39:58That's not possible.
00:39:58How did she just...
00:39:59Well?
00:40:00Isn'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?
00:40:20Second place?
00:40:22Julianne Cross.
00:40:24How?
00:40:24Julianne's always first!
00:40:26I'm not finished.
00:40:28First place overall...
00:40:33Aurora 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+.
00:40:50Top of the class.
00:40:55I won.
00:40:57Julianne, 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.
00:41:11He lost.
00:41:13He owes a penalty.
00:41:14Lord Julianne, 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, feel free to take the punishment in his place.
00:41:24You...
00:41:25You know what?
00:41:26I think you cheated.
00:41:27You used to be that bad, and 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, Aurora'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, and you know what that means.
00:41:47A dead last student like you?
00:41:49Your old schools speak for themselves!
00:41:52You are getting examined today!
00:41:54Right!
00:41:55She must have a cheat device on her!
00:41:58Search her!
00:41:58If she didn't cheat, what's she afraid of?
00:42:01Fine.
00:42:01You want to check me?
00:42:03Go ahead.
00:42:04But then everyone who tested in the same session gets checked too.
00:42:06Especially you, Chloe.
00:42:09Why should I be checked?
00:42:10You're the one being reported!
00:42:12Burden of proof falls on the accuser.
00:42:14You're claiming I cheated?
00:42:16Fine.
00:42:16I agree to a search.
00:42:17But if there's a search, everyone who tested in the same session gets checked.
00:42:22Otherwise, 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.
00:42:29In the interest of fairness, Aurora 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.
00:42:40Aurora.
00:42:41Chloe.
00:42:42Step up one at a time.
00:42:47Aurora, clean.
00:42:51Chloe, you seem nervous.
00:42:59An energy transfer device.
00:43:01That's not mine!
00:43:02I don't know how it got there!
00:43:04Oh really?
00:43:05It grew legs and crawled there on its own?
00:43:07During the test, someone used this to temporarily transfer energy to you, helping you complete the assessment.
00:43:14Isn't that right, Chloe?
00:43:15Looks like the real cheater.
00:43:17The real cheater isn'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.
00:43:30The student who cheated was Chloe.
00:43:34What?
00:43:35It was Chloe?
00:43:36Nullified?
00:43:36Can she even graduate?
00:43:37A formal demerriage will be issued and her test scores are nullified.
00:43:42If you breathe a word about me, you're done.
00:43:45Now, does anyone else want to accuse me of cheating?
00:43:49Given that a cheat device was involved during the test, in the interest of fully settling this dispute, Aurora, are
00:43:54you willing to retest?
00:43:55Absolutely.
00:43:56And let a certain someone lose without any excuses.
00:44:00The retest will be defensive stabilization.
00:44:03Each tester protects their own core sphere.
00:44:06Fewer hits on the core within the time limit means a higher score.
00:44:10Aurora, Serena, begin.
00:44:16That's Serena for you!
00:44:18So precise.
00:44:20So elegant.
00:44:26I told you.
00:44:28She has no idea what she's doing.
00:44:30She's always been good at one thing.
00:44:32Messing up.
00:44:40I'd quit now if I were you.
00:44:54Serena, point deducted.
00:45:01Wait!
00:45:02All the trajectories have changed!
00:45:05They're all going in circles.
00:45:07Like they're locked onto an invisible track.
00:45:23Serena, point deducted.
00:45:25Serena, point deducted.
00:45:27How is this possible?
00:45:30The result of this test?
00:45:33Aurora wins.
00:45:34Her performance speaks for itself.
00:45:36No cheating involved.
00:45:41Now, should we talk about our bet?
00:45:47Retest 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 this relentless about it?
00:45:55Relentless?
00:45:55You're the ones who accused me of cheating and then got caught cheating yourselves.
00:45:59And now you won't pay up?
00:46:01Julian, bra and skirt, energy restraint rings, 15 burpees in front of the whole school,
00:46:06then 10 laps around the track.
00:46:08You apologize the entire time you run.
00:46:11In your dreams!
00:46:13In 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 a chance to make things right, but left your punishment up to me.
00:46:21You're joining Julian.
00:46:23No!
00:46:26Oh, Chloe.
00:46:28Since your loyalty to Julian is so deep, I'll allow it.
00:46:32You can run his 10 laps for him.
00:46:3410 laps?
00:46:35I'll die!
00:46:36Chloe, you're the one who started all of this.
00:46:38Julian got dragged into it trying to protect everyone.
00:46:41You want to make it easier on him, don't you?
00:46:43I-I-I go.
00:46:44Or I won't hesitate to expose every time I helped you cheat over the past few years.
00:46:52Don't try to use your 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, we can't let her get away with this.
00:47:27She's always running around with that older man from outside school, right?
00:47:31A young girl suddenly hang around some older guy, suddenly flush with money.
00:47:36We all know what that means.
00:47:39You mean-
00:47:40All we need to do is find the right public moment to put it out there.
00:47:44It'll be quite the show.
00:47:54Aurora?
00:47:55Laura?
00:48:17Why aren't you in the training room?
00:48:19Training's on hold tonight.
00:48:21On hold?
00:48:21Because tonight,
00:48:23I'm celebrating your birthday.
00:48:26How did you know?
00:48:36That's...
00:48:41Leo, isn't it?
00:48:43Beautiful and perfect control.
00:48:48You can actually do this now.
00:48:51Congratulations. I mean it. Congratulations.
00:48:54This is...
00:48:55the best gift I've ever received.
00:48:59Then I need you to promise me something.
00:49:02Anything!
00:49:03Tomorrow, all our classmates are going to the beach.
00:49:07Will you come?
00:49:23I got another one!
00:49:26Aurora?
00:49:28Why is it always her?
00:49:30Don't lose your nerve. Win it back.
00:49:38Her ability is so unfair!
00:49:40Just a harmless little current.
00:49:41It won't hurt you.
00:49:43Feel free to use your light whip if you want.
00:49:46Again!
00:49:50Put away that useless whip!
00:49:52You can't manage your ability and play at the same time.
00:49:53You're just getting in the way!
00:49:55But Aurora can do it.
00:49:56When did she get this good?
00:50:10That's fast!
00:50:21You okay?
00:50:28Who is he?
00:50:30He's gorgeous!
00:50:31This scene!
00:50:33I can barely breathe!
00:50:37I'm fine.
00:50:40Let me handle him.
00:50:48He's unreal.
00:50:49How does Aurora know someone like him?
00:51:03How is anyone supposed to return that?
00:51:14That... easy?
00:51:25He... returned all of them?
00:51:27How is that possible?
00:51:30Julian's speed looks like child's play next to him.
00:51:43His rhythm is breaking down.
00:51:46Opening...
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 was fast enough too.
00:52:16Really?
00:52:21They are so in sync!
00:52:23That last move!
00:52:26Aurora, drop the act.
00:52:28Everything you have, you won it because of a man, didn't you?
00:52:34Who was that old man who picked you up at school every day?
00:52:37Did you think no one noticed?
00:52:39Shut up.
00:52:40Sir, I'm saying this for your own good.
00:52:42Don't be fooled by her.
00:52:43She's not as innocent as she looks.
00:52:44She's just a servant's daughter who's happy to let some old guy pay her way...
00:52:49You actually hit me?
00:52:52Say it again.
00:52:53Go ahead.
00:52:54You actually hit me?
00:52:56That was the light version.
00:52:58Say one more thing against Aurora, and you won't be walking home today.
00:53:03That was too far.
00:53:05We're just worried about Aurora being taken advantage of.
00:53:08We were just reminding her, as friends.
00:53:11Your idea of reminding her is spreading filthy lies about her?
00:53:14But, isn't she the one chasing you?
00:53:17The more you know about her situation, the 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 with an old-
00:53:33I mean it.
00:53:36Yes.
00:53:36You can pursue me.
00:53:39Aurora!
00:53:39Done performing?
00:53:40You were nothing but a simp.
00:53:41The whole school saw how you chased me.
00:53:43Now you lash into someone new and pretend you're above it all?
00:53:46You think I can't see through this?
00:53:48You just want to make me jealous.
00:53:50Fine.
00:53:51I'll give you a chance.
00:53:52Come back now and I'll consider making you my girlfriend.
00:53:55Julian, you are a joke.
00:53:57I was the one who was blind.
00:53:59I took you way too seriously now.
00:54:01You're not even worth the dog shit on the ground.
00:54:03Aurora!
00:54:03Who exactly do you think you are?
00:54:05That the world revolves around you?
00:54:07You're with Serena?
00:54:09And you're standing right next to her saying this.
00:54:11You don't even find that embarrassing?
00:54:13I feel bad for her.
00:54:15Is your forgiveness supposed to be worth something?
00:54:17Keep it for yourself.
00:54:18Fine.
00:54:19Very fine.
00:54:20Aurora!
00:54:21You'll regret this!
00:54:24Julian made a complete fool of himself today.
00:54:26Why does this moron get to be pursued by someone like Leon while I'm stuck with a broke loser like
00:54:31Julian?
00:54:33Don't be upset.
00:54:34Everything I said back there, I was just annoyed at Aurora for being so full of herself.
00:54:38I said it to get a reaction.
00:54:40You're the one I want to be with.
00:54:41I'm not giving her any opening.
00:54:43I know.
00:54:44I know.
00:54:44I just feel a little...
00:54:45beaten down.
00:54:46She has that older man protecting her.
00:54:48And now she has someone like Leon at her side.
00:54:50No matter what I do, I just can't measure up to her.
00:54:53Oh, stop.
00:54:55Someone like Aurora doesn'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, whatever you want.
00:55:02My treat.
00:55:03Really?
00:55:04Of course.
00:55:05Go ahead.
00:55:07I'll have the lobster pasta, the charcoal grilled wagyu, a dozen oysters, truffle fries, and a sea salt caramel souffle.
00:55:15Best champagne you have.
00:55:18Somebody's ordering big.
00:55:20Which rich kid is this?
00:55:32Check, please.
00:55:39Payment decline insufficient funds.
00:55:42Try again.
00:55:43Payment decline insufficient funds.
00:55:45Can't pay and you ordered all that?
00:55:47From the way he was acting, I actually thought he was somebody.
00:55:50Sir, would you like to try a different payment method?
00:55:54Dad, what happened to the money in my account?
00:55:56I needed it.
00:55:57So I moved it.
00:55:58Did you gamble it away again?
00:55:59Shut your mouth.
00:56:00You don't get to lecture me.
00:56:02By the way, you're on your own for next year's tuition.
00:56:05So he's broke.
00:56:06Showing off like that and now no one's here to bail him out.
00:56:09I see now.
00:56:10You're not a rich heir at all.
00:56:11The one with real money is Aurora.
00:56:13You're just a broke loser she's been supporting.
00:56:15Julian, I'm suddenly not hungry anymore.
00:56:18You finish up.
00:56:21Serena, let me explain.
00:56:23The money was just temporarily moved by my dad.
00:56:26I'll figure out a way to earn it back.
00:56:28I swear I won't let you down.
00:56:31Julian, a whole month of part-time work,
00:56:33probably pays less than one day as Aurora's private ability coach.
00:56:37Am I wrong?
00:56:38What are you saying?
00:56:38It's very simple.
00:56:40What you need to do right now is go to Aurora
00:56:42and ask her to hire you back as her coach.
00:56:46I finally got free of that woman.
00:56:47I just want to be with you now
00:56:48and you're telling me to go back and work for her?
00:56:50I'm thinking about you.
00:56:53What you need most right now is money.
00:56:55Coaching her pays more than any odd job you could pick up outside.
00:56:58And your dad's debt, that has to be handled first, doesn'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 to go earn money from her,
00:57:06not to get back together we're with her.
00:57:09You're broke.
00:57:11If you don't earn something, what exactly do I have to spend?
00:57:15Alright.
00:57:16I'm just looking out for you.
00:57:18If you're too embarrassed to ask her yourself,
00:57:20I'll go say it for you.
00:57:22Would she even take me back at this point?
00:57:25Did you mean what you said earlier?
00:57:28Which part?
00:57:31That you're the one pursuing 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 continue as your ability coach?
00:57:48Seriously?
00:57:49You interrupted my evening for...
00:57:52this?
00:57:53Julian is really struggling right now.
00:57:55You've probably heard about his father.
00:57:56Your family has plenty of money
00:57:58and Julian's ability is strong.
00:57:59If you agree,
00:58:00I promise he'll take the 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 a salary
00:58:06and effectively support both of you?
00:58:09Aurora.
00:58:11I'm willing to forgive everything 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 just said
00:58:20he'd never forgive me.
00:58:24Aurora,
00:58:25if the only reason you'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 to leave him.
00:58:36I get it, Aurora.
00:58:37You're just still holding a grudge, aren't you?
00:58:39Stop pretending to know me.
00:58:41Let's talk about you, Serena.
00:58:43You like Julian because he was the top student.
00:58:46The school's heartthrob.
00:58:47Everyone's chosen heir.
00:58:49Now that you've found out he's not rich at all.
00:58:51His dad's a gambler buried in debt.
00:58:53You've changed your mind.
00:58:54You want to turn him into a money-making tool
00:58:58so you can slowly discard him
00:59:00and move on to someone with better prospects.
00:59:02Right?
00:59:03Who gave you the right to say that?
00:59:05I just think Julian deserves a better future.
00:59:07Right.
00:59:08And without a better future,
00:59:09how could he keep spending money on you?
00:59:12Aurora,
00:59:13enough.
00:59:13I've always believed women should support each other.
00:59:15But you've been reading the worst possible intentions
00:59:17into everything I do.
00:59:19Hearing that from you is quite something.
00:59:21Isn't giving you a chance to 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.
00:59:32Aurora,
00:59:33enough!
00:59:35Stop going after Serena.
00:59:39You got sold out and you're still counting the money for them.
00:59:41What did you say?
00:59:43She thinks you're broke.
00:59:43Thinks you're a burden.
00:59:44Thinks your dad is an embarrassment.
00:59:46And she's putting on this whole act of self-sacrifice
00:59:48while pushing you back at me.
00:59:50And you're still defending her?
00:59:51Julian,
00:59:52you're a complete idiot.
00:59:54Julian, don't!
00:59:55Aurora and I just have 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,
01:00:05don't think bringing some random guy to make me jealous is gonna change anything!
01:00:09Aurora,
01:00:10ignore him.
01:00:11Let's go.
01:00:14Julian doesn't have much use left.
01:00:16But Leon,
01:00:17I need to find a way to push Aurora and Julian back together.
01:00:20That would give me a way to get close to Leon.
01:00:24Better coach.
01:00:26Better boyfriend.
01:00:28Hmm?
01:00:28What?
01:00:29Any objections?
01:00:30I think
01:00:31I need to earn those words.
01:00:36From here on,
01:00:37I'm training you to be number one in the year.
01:00:39I want you to surpass Julia and Serena in all four areas.
01:00:43Combine combat,
01:00:44precision control,
01:00:44sustained output,
01:00:45and environmental takeover.
01:00:47At this year's graduation ceremony,
01:00:48you'll stand on that stage as the student representative.
01:00:51Everyone who ever called you a failure
01:00:52will have to look up at you.
01:00:54In my past life,
01:00:55I was useless in the war.
01:00:56I died with the name of a failure,
01:00:59while Julian and Serena walked over my father's body.
01:01:02This time,
01:01:03I will make myself strong enough.
01:01:05Strong enough to defeat them both.
01:01:07Yes.
01:01:09I'm going to be number one.
01:01:11I'm going to surpass Julian and Serena.
01:01:13You will.
01:01:14One more thing.
01:01:15Stay away from Julian.
01:01:17I looked into his family background.
01:01:18His father was a former gang member.
01:01:20Alcoholic.
01:01:21Compulsive gambler.
01:01:22I know.
01:01:22I already know all of it.
01:01:24Julian.
01:01:25Carl.
01:01:26You won't get a dime out of me this time.
01:01:32You actually came back?
01:01:34You stole from me again.
01:01:37Stole?
01:01:37You're going to hold a little money against your own father?
01:01:40That was my tuition for Nexi, my sister.
01:01:42Tuition?
01:01:43When you were living at the Hale Estate,
01:01:45you never once asked me for tuition money.
01:01:47When you were with Aurora,
01:01:48you were bringing home cash hand over win.
01:01:50You remember how we lived?
01:01:51And now?
01:01:52You screwed it all up!
01:01:55Shut up.
01:01:56You shut up!
01:01:57A brainless heiress like Aurora.
01:01:59You should have had her completely wrapped around your finger.
01:02:02And you couldn't even keep up the act.
01:02:04Look what you've done to me!
01:02:05Tomorrow you go to Aurora and apologize.
01:02:07Get her to hire you back as her coach.
01:02:10No.
01:02:11You're going whether you want to or not.
01:02:14Otherwise, I'd beat you every day until you do.
01:02:17Carl!
01:02:17Get out here!
01:02:21Three months, Carl.
01:02:23When are you planning to pay me back?
01:02:24Zane, just give me two more days.
01:02:26I'll figure something out.
01:02:27Figure 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 even come back?
01:02:42Drop the act, Carl.
01:02:44Boys, beat them both.
01:02:51Stop!
01:02:52Stop!
01:02:53Stop hitting!
01:02:54You're going to 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 who's crazy about my son.
01:03:02Her father is Victor Hall.
01:03:03Three million, five million, it's nothing to her.
01:03:04Is that right?
01:03:05If my son is in trouble, she'll pay.
01:03:07She always does.
01:03:08Fine.
01:03:08Tomorrow at noon.
01:03:09If I don't see three million, I kill your son.
01:03:12Miss Hale!
01:03:13St. Julian, he's been taken!
01:03:14The kidnappers want three million!
01:03:16Kidnappers, then call the police.
01:03:18What are you coming to me for?
01:03:19We can't call the police!
01:03:20They'll kill him!
01:03:21Miss Hale, I'm begging you, please save him!
01:03:24Whether he lives or dies, what does that have to do with me?
01:03:26Miss Hale, you're just angry at him.
01:03:28When he comes back, I'll have him on his knees begging to make things right with you.
01:03:31How about that?
01:03:32No need.
01:03:33I'd be thrilled if he never came back.
01:03:34Though if he dragged himself back missing an arm or a leg, that might actually be fun.
01:03:39He's your son, not mine.
01:03:41The Hale family bullies their employees!
01:03:43You leave people to die!
01:03:46My son and I gave years of our lives to this family, and this is how you treat them?
01:03:52If you don't agree today, I'm staying here until I die!
01:03:57Fine.
01:03:57I'm not sticking around for this.
01:03:59Miss Hale, you can't be this cruel!
01:04:01Carl!
01:04:01What's going on?
01:04:02Mr. Hale, please!
01:04:04Julian's been taken!
01:04:05They want three million, and the young miss won't help me!
01:04:07Three million.
01:04:08Give it to him, and send him away.
01:04:10Thank you, Mr. Hale!
01:04:12Thank you!
01:04:13I know Julian is no good.
01:04:15Take the ransom money to them yourself.
01:04:17His life is in your hands now.
01:04:19How you let off steam is entirely up to you.
01:04:21Understood, Dad.
01:04:25Miss, here he is!
01:04:27Oh, you knocked him out?
01:04:27Oh, we had no way of knowing he was a friend of yours.
01:04:30No, I meant, you could have been a bit rougher to wake him up.
01:04:34I understand, miss.
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 stop 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 and the heir to the HAL estate!
01:05:00Aurora, help 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 you're actually trying to save him, and not just stall him?
01:05:11Boys!
01:05:12Wait for the money and 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 to one ten-thousandth of what I suffered in my past life.
01:05:27Aurora, you came for me?
01:05:30Of course.
01:05:32Your father came to our home begging in tears for three million.
01:05:35My father didn't want to, luckily I spoke up for you.
01:05:38Julian, now you know who actually cares about you, don't you?
01:05:41Everything before, that was all my fault.
01:05:44I swear, from now on I'll treat you right.
01:05:46Good.
01:05:47Let me get someone to take you to the hospital first.
01:05:52Aurora, for you.
01:05:54Your favorite, hazelnut latte.
01:05:56I went out of my way to get it.
01:05:58Your memory's as bad as ever.
01:06:00I stopped drinking that a long time ago.
01:06:02That's fine, I also got an ice americano with a double shot.
01:06:05Weren't you into strong coffee lately?
01:06:09Aurora, I made this for you myself.
01:06:14Wow, that's a full spread.
01:06:17That's incredible.
01:06:18Now this is something, Leon.
01:06:22Aurora, are you messing with me?
01:06:28You do realize drinking coffee on an empty stomach is hard on Aurora's stomach, right?
01:06:35Aurora!
01:06:38What exactly is going on between you and Leon?
01:06:41Are you already together?
01:06:42Let go, you're hurting me.
01:06:44Stop acting.
01:06:45I can see it.
01:06:46Every time you look at him, your eyes are different.
01:06:48You never looked at me that way.
01:06:50Does that hurt?
01:06:52I've been there a thousand times worse.
01:06:54I gave you everything, and you stepped on me and played me for a fool.
01:07:00Aurora, what's gotten into you?
01:07:02When did I ever deceive you?
01:07:04Stop performing.
01:07:06Okay, I admit there was something between Serena and me before.
01:07:09But since I cleared the air with you, I'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.
01:07:23Didn't you hear her say get off?
01:07:24What does this have to do with you?
01:07:25Do you have any idea how much Aurora was in love with me?
01:07:28She's with you now just to boost her scores and make me notice her.
01:07:30You really think you have any right to play hero for her?
01:07:33I was actually going to string you along a bit longer.
01:07:35Let you find out what it's like to pour your heart out to someone who treats it like garbage.
01:07:39But who the hell do you think you are speaking to Leon like that?
01:07:42Stay away from me from now on.
01:07:43Come near me one more time and I'll make you look a lot worse than today.
01:07:51Sorry, I almost failed to protect you.
01:07:54It wasn't your fault.
01:07:56I was the one who was too naive before.
01:07:58At least this time, I didn't let him get what he wanted.
01:08:02Aurora, did he hurt you like this before? In the past?
01:08:07I once had a dream.
01:08:09In the dream, I couldn't see someone's true face no matter how hard I tried.
01:08:12I gave him everything I had.
01:08:14And in the end, he got me killed.
01:08:15That 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 of the dream, you appeared.
01:08:33And after that, everything was better.
01:08:36Once the graduation ceremony is over, I'll tell you the rest of the story.
01:08:40Good.
01:08:40I'll wait.
01:08:42Oh!
01:08:43You've been confirmed as this year's student representative for the graduation ceremony.
01:08:48After the ceremony, I have something for you.
01:08:50Thank you in advance.
01:08:52Everything I've achieved, that's all down to my coach.
01:09:05My darling girl,
01:09:07don't be nervous tonight.
01:09:08Dad can't wait to hear your speech.
01:09:11Don't worry.
01:09:13I won't disappoint you.
01:09:15Go on in.
01:09:16You took my spot as student representative?
01:09:19And now you think you're going to stand on that stage and shine?
01:09:22Aurora, I will ruin you in front of the entire school.
01:09:30Tonight is our graduation ceremony and our night of honors.
01:09:33This school was established through the efforts of our mutant war hero, Victor Holt.
01:09:37Our school motto has always been one line, to let mutants and humans grow together under the same sky and
01:09:43flourish as one.
01:09:44Each of you seated here tonight has passed seven years of this school's trial.
01:09:47Now, please welcome this year's student representative to the stage for the commencement address.
01:09:54Good evening, everyone.
01:09:56I'm your student representative for tonight, and I'm proud to be standing here.
01:09:59For a long time, I was not someone others considered worthy of this school.
01:10:03But today, I want to start by saying thank you to-
01:10:06I have an accusation!
01:10:14Aurora has no right to stand here.
01:10:18She has no morals.
01:10:19She's some old man's pepped woman spending his money bullying her classmates,
01:10:23and now she gets to stand on this stage as student representative?
01:10:26I'm making this accusation under my own name!
01:10:35Everyone, look at the evidence!
01:10:37Aurora and this older man, look how close they are.
01:10:40She used this disgusting relationship to get money and status she never earned.
01:10:45A disgrace like her, what right does she have to represent us?
01:10:49So it's actually true, she really is being kept by some old man.
01:10:53Aurora, your taste is something else.
01:10:56Old and bald and you still went for it?
01:10:59Old and bald.
01:11:02Sir, these students are out of line. I'll handle it immediately.
01:11:06No need.
01:11:07I'd like to see how this plays out.
01:11:13This is the man you're calling my keeper?
01:11:16The evidence is right there! Are you going to deny it?
01:11:19You're not wrong. He is someone I love.
01:11:27Though at the moment, he can only rank second among the men I love.
01:11:32You're actually admitting it?
01:11:34Aurora, you've got absolutely no shame when it comes to money!
01:11:37You actually like some old bald man?!
01:11:40I said I love him. Is there a problem with that?
01:11:43Are we not allowed to tell the truth now?
01:11:46Aurora, you have absolutely no shame.
01:11:49Every school board member is here tonight.
01:11:51You're saying this in front of the entire school.
01:11:53Do you feel no embarrassment whatsoever?!
01:11:56Someone like her should be expelled!
01:11:57Exactly! Expeller!
01:11:58Student representative, her?
01:11:59Julian, you know her better than anyone.
01:12:01Tell us, is she being kept or not?
01:12:02Right, you were her coach, you must know!
01:12:04Julian, I'm giving you one last chance.
01:12:08You tell everyone, what is the relationship between me and the man in that photo?
01:12:16The person in the photo is...
01:12:18No.
01:12:19If I say it, what happens to Serena?
01:12:22This photo is beyond appropriate.
01:12:24Aurora, if you apologize right now, you can still walk away with some dignity!
01:12:30Julian, you really haven't changed at all.
01:12:32Still love turning everything on its head.
01:12:35Aurora, don't change the subject.
01:12:36You're the one changing the subject, fine.
01:12:38Since you want to burn it all down in front of the whole school, I'll lay everything out.
01:12:41Julian, you drove my car, lived in my estate, spent my money buying gifts for Serena, impersonated a wealthy heir,
01:12:46and spread rumors that I was a servant's daughter.
01:12:48You've played Lord Julian for so long, did you actually start believing it?
01:12:52What?!
01:12:52Julian's money was all from Aurora?
01:12:54He's not Victor Hale's chosen heir?
01:12:56She's lying!
01:12:57Shut up, Chloe.
01:12:58See Julian for what he really is.
01:13:00He's nothing but a coach who wormed his way into the Hale estate and stole my identity to lord it
01:13:04over all of you.
01:13:08Quiet! Everyone quiet!
01:13:10Enough.
01:13:13Victor Hale?
01:13:14The war hero?
01:13:15Doesn't he never appear in public?
01:13:17I am disappointed.
01:13:18Since this school was founded, I have emphasized only one thing.
01:13:22Peace.
01:13:22Peace is not words.
01:13:24It is not applause in an auditorium while saying, mutual prosperity.
01:13:28Peace begins with the most basic respect.
01:13:30Respect for other people.
01:13:31Respect for the truth.
01:13:32Didn't you all just spell it out clearly?
01:13:35Anyone with no morals?
01:13:37Anyone who harms fellow students?
01:13:38Anyone who corrupts this school's culture should be expelled.
01:13:43So let's follow your own rule.
01:13:44Aurora, what are you still standing there for?
01:13:47Go pack your things and get out of this school.
01:13:49You misunderstood.
01:13:55No way, he's...
01:13:56Does that me?
01:13:57That's right.
01:13:58The man you've been calling old and bold is me.
01:14:01Aurora is my one and only daughter.
01:14:03Aurora is actually Victor Hale's daughter?!
01:14:06Oh my god!
01:14:06Serena and the others are finished.
01:14:09Oh my god!
01:14:14Principal, it's in your hands from here.
01:14:18The school has confirmed the following.
01:14:20All students involved in tonight's malicious rumor spreading are hereby expelled.
01:14:24Primary instigators, Serena Vale and Chloe Mercer, effective immediately.
01:14:30I didn't mean to!
01:14:31No!
01:14:32No!
01:14:34This can't be happening!
01:14:37It's a shame, Julian.
01:14:39You're a remarkably talented young man.
01:14:40I had originally planned to recommend you to the defense ministry when you graduated.
01:14:44Your conduct is beneath contempt.
01:14:46Stay away from Aurora from now on.
01:14:48By the way, my daughter is not involved with anyone other than her fiancé, Mr. Hart.
01:14:52I heard that the position of my daughter's most loved man, you stole that from me.
01:14:58I apologize, sir.
01:14:59Don't apologize!
01:15:01You earned it!
01:15:03Aurora, I said I had something for you after the ceremony, but I think now is the right
01:15:06moment.
01:15:08Once, I was a step too late.
01:15:11That won't happen again.
01:15:12Aurora Hale, will you marry me?
01:15:16Leon, in my past life, if I could do it all over again, I'd choose you.
01:15:21I would.
01:15:22In my past life, I didn't know who truly loved me until the moment I died.
01:15:26This time, I will not miss it.
01:15:28I do.
01:15:36Future son-in-law, I'll let you pass for now.
01:15:39Don't you dare let my daughter suffer.
01:15:41I promise.
