00:00:17Dad.
00:00:26Julian!
00:00:27I knew you'd come!
00:00:30The humans started a war.
00:00:33My whole family is gone.
00:00:38Yeah, I know.
00:00:40I'm the one who started it.
00:00:41And I'm the one who had your family killed.
00:00:43You'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.
00:00:53You said you'd marry me.
00:00:55You gave me this.
00:00:56You 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 just 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, made specifically to shut abilities down.
00:01:22Every single day it's been draining you, destroying 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, it 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 was 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.
00:02:11No!
00:02:22You had this coming.
00:02:25You had this coming.
00:02:35Aurora!
00:02:35Sarah!
00:02:36Sarah!
00:02:37Sarah!
00:02:42Leon.
00:02:46I was too late.
00:02:48I'm sorry.
00:02:50I'm so sorry.
00:03:08Sarah!
00:03:26No!
00:03:31Stop.
00:03:33You'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.
00:03:45You'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. It never did.
00:04:06You just never saw that.
00:04:10All those years, Dad kept bringing up Leon.
00:04:13Kept mentioning the engagement.
00:04:16Leon was always just there.
00:04:19Quietly, awkwardly there.
00:04:21And I threw that away chasing someone who never gave a damn about me.
00:04:27I wasted everything.
00:04:30My whole life.
00:04:32I was so blind.
00:04:34You 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, I'd choose you.
00:05:14I really would.
00:05:18You're the one who had your family killed.
00:05:19No!
00:05:24God, you're stupid.
00:05:25Bloods your system with noxious resonance.
00:05:26You're the one who had your family killed.
00:05:27Aurora!
00:05:32I'm alive.
00:05:35No wounds.
00:05:36No collar.
00:05:44Which means this is before Julian gave me the collar?
00:05:48This is seventh year practical ops class?
00:05:51I 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.
00:06:06It actively feeds on the host's energy and 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.
00:06:15Now, I'd like a student to come up and demonstrate.
00:06:21Aurora.
00:06:23You.
00:06:26Isn't she the worst student in the class?
00:06:30Great, here we go again.
00:06:36Try not to fry it the second you touch it.
00:06:39I mean, if she actually pulls it off for once, I'll clap.
00:06:42I will.
00:06:46Now, release your current.
00:07:06She can't even float an apple.
00:07:09Like, what is she even doing up there?
00:07:12Can't hold a basic current steady?
00:07:14Yeah.
00:07:15No surprise there.
00:07:18Don't stop.
00:07:19Try again.
00:07:28What?
00:07:29Waiting for me to come fix it for you?
00:07:35You're still on that?
00:07:37Every single day of those seven years was something I had to survive.
00:07:41If it weren't for your father's name, I wouldn't have given you a second look.
00:07:54What?
00:08:01Aurora, pull back!
00:08:03Aurora! Pull back!
00:08:17Ow!
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 be enrolled 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.
00:08:47He's set to inherit the whole Hale estate. Aurora's just some servants kid.
00:08:50Victor Hale's successor? Heir to the Hale estate? And I'm the servants kid.
00:08:55Julian, you've really been out here telling people that?
00:08:58Stop making shit up! You hurt Serena! Apologize to her right now!
00:09:01Julian, you're so sweet. You hurt him. Apologize? He's basically the heir to the Hale family.
00:09:08Heir 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!
00:09:16She's different today. Something's off.
00:09:19You're not letting me ride with you? Julian, you've got it backwards. You're not riding with me.
00:09:30Where's she going? No. 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?
00:10:03His 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.
00:10:13Surely you wouldn't make your coach walk all the way home?
00:10:17Everyone knows you're obsessed with my son. He snaps his fingers and you come running.
00:10:22Everything the Hale family has, it's only a matter of time before it's ours.
00:10:30Aurora!
00:10:33You'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?
00:10:42Your airship?
00:10:44That'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.
00:10:54I 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.
00:11:10And I'd really appreciate it if you stopped following me around.
00:11:13Are you kidding me right now? Julian, why are you still being nice to her?
00:11:20Get down!
00:11:24That's what you get!
00:11:26She really thought she was gonna win that?
00:11:34Come on. She's not worth it.
00:11:39Good 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.
00:11:48Miss... Miss, are you quite done?
00:11:53Let's not keep Julian and Miss Vale waiting.
00:11:57I'll say this once more.
00:11:59If that airship leaves, you're not gonna like what happens next.
00:12:02You're really worked up today.
00:12:03But once Julian comes back and says the right things, you'll drop it.
00:12:07You always do.
00:12:11See that? That's how it's done!
00:12:14It's not even your airship. Stop pretending.
00:12:19Dad, there's a staff member here at the academy, Carl Cross.
00:12:23He just authorized the departure of our private airship without permission.
00:12:26I think we should let him go.
00:12:28Effective immediately.
00:12:30Oh, sure. Nice story.
00:12:32Who's your dad? The principal?
00:12:33Is she about to say she owns the school too?
00:12:37You really think one phone call fixes this?
00:12:41Just watch.
00:12:51What happened? You literally just left!
00:12:54The academy forced a lockdown.
00:12:56System override.
00:13:00Carl Cross.
00:13:02For unauthorized eye shopping of private property, you're terminated.
00:13:06Effective immediately.
00:13:06No, that's not... there has to be a mistake.
00:13:09You had no authority over that airship.
00:13:12Get off me! I was doing my job!
00:13:14He actually got fired.
00:13:17One call and she just...
00:13:20I apologize that this happened on school grounds, Miss Hale.
00:13:23Your airship's access been fully restored.
00:13:28Aurora, you've actually pissed me off this time.
00:13:32Good.
00:13:33Get used to it.
00:13:38This is just the beginning.
00:13:40Bye.
00:13:41Lord Julian.
00:13:58It's all still here.
00:14:00We still have a chance to fix this.
00:14:11Dad.
00:14:15Aurora!
00:14:29Without you...
00:14:33Without you...
00:14:35None of it means anything to me.
00:14:39Dad.
00:14:41Leon.
00:14:45Look at that.
00:14:46You actually used his name.
00:14:48Know that guy today?
00:14:49Aurora, you okay?
00:14:52I'm fine.
00:14:53Hasn't seen her fiancé in a while and she's already tearing up.
00:14:57Very telling.
00:14:58Dad, stop and maybe...
00:15:00Give us a little room?
00:15:03Oh, I see how it is.
00:15:04How it is.
00:15:06I'm being dismissed.
00:15:10Leon.
00:15:12Would you want to have dinner with me tonight?
00:15:14Just us?
00:15:17I...
00:15:20Yeah.
00:15:21Absolutely.
00:15:22Of course.
00:15:29You look nervous.
00:15:31Sorry.
00:15:32I just didn't expect you to invite me like this, out of nowhere.
00:15:36Leon Hart gets nervous?
00:15:38You 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.
00:15:47I 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.
00:15:56Because I want you around more.
00:15:58A lot more.
00:16:05Starting with...
00:16:06Becoming my new coach.
00:16:09Are you serious?
00:16:11I...
00:16:12Aurora, who is this?
00:16:14Why are you sitting with him?
00:16:16Oh, glad you asked.
00:16:17This is Leon Hart.
00:16:18My 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?
00:16:25I'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.
00:16:35Then go ahead.
00:16:37I knew you'd...
00:16:38Wait, what?
00:16:39I said I already have a new coach.
00:16:42I don't need you anymore.
00:16:44You can go.
00:16:46You...
00:16:47What?
00:16:47You heard me.
00:16:49Leave.
00:16:52You heard her.
00:16:53I'm her coach now.
00:16:56Something is seriously wrong with her today.
00:16:59I need to get this back under control.
00:17:00Come on, Aurora.
00:17:01I 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.
00:17:20It'll help stabilize your ability long term.
00:17:23And it's...
00:17:24I don't know.
00:17:25It means something.
00:17:26To me.
00:17:31Every single day it's been draining you.
00:17:33Destroying you from the inside.
00:17:41Nobody else is going to deal with your ability the way I do.
00:17:44Here.
00:17:45Let me put it on.
00:17:47Don't!
00:17:50Relax.
00:17:51Back up.
00:17:52She's not interested.
00:18:07Aurora?
00:18:15Aurora, once 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.
00:18:30Kinda 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?
00:19:01That's actually insane.
00:19:04Hold on.
00:19:05Who did you just call a servant?
00:19:07You.
00:19:08Everyone here knows it.
00:19:09Julian is the heir 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 heir to the Hale estate is...
00:19:22Yeah?
00:19:23Who?
00:19:24Chloe.
00:19:25Shut 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, who's the servant and who's the heir?
00:19:40Aurora, are we done?
00:19:42Class is starting. I'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.
00:20:05The 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! You can just casually book a place like that?
00:20:16I heard Julian actually owns the Stellar Hotel.
00:20:18Of course he does! That's just how he operates!
00:20:22I knew it.
00:20:24Julian only wears the latest everything.
00:20:25There'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?! Seriously?!
00:20:44This is why Mr. Hale picked him.
00:20:46Makes total sense.
00:20:48Last time around, I spent eight million on his birthday.
00:20:51Made 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.
00:21:10Julian, 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?
00:21:21It's a hotel. I 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, so what are you barking for?
00:21:34I thought you said you weren't coming.
00:21:36Oh right, it's your birthday.
00:21:38Honestly almost forgot until I ran into you just now.
00:21:40What are you playing at? Is this about me not inviting you?
00:21:44Aurora, it's Julian's birthday. Don't start something.
00:21:47At the end of the day, you're just the daughter of his family's servant, so 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?! I'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. Let'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? Everyone's here.
00:22:25Don'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?
00:22:35Alright then, let's have some fun.
00:22:39Right, okay. It's your birthday, you 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. You can go in whenever you're ready.
00:22:51You booked the Platinum Suite?
00:22:53Obviously. You 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. Same old Aurora. Talks big and still ends up spending money on me.
00:23:02Some things never change. That's more like it.
00:23:06Alright everyone, let'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. I just need you to go along with it.
00:23:20Yeah, alright. I'm in.
00:23:23He's totally getting this one.
00:23:32Julian, come on. That bottle alone must be worth thousands.
00:23:36This room is actually unreal.
00:23:38This is what it looks like when you actually own the place.
00:23:42Order whatever you want. Tonight'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...
00:24:05Okay, but who even is he? He's not nobody.
00:24:08Right? There's something about him.
00:24:10Aurora brought some guy to make me jealous?
00:24:13Please. I 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.
00:24:20Wow, that much?
00:24:22Hope whoever's paying can actually cover it.
00:24:24Oh please, Julian's got the tab.
00:24:27Have whatever's left.
00:24:29Consider it a treat for the stray.
00:24:30She's not wrong. I 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? That'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. Isn'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? This is Julian's hotel.
00:25:03You're seriously going to charge him?
00:25:05He could have you fired right now.
00:25:08Yeah, 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? Aurora?
00:25:18No way! This 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?
00:25:48The Stellar Hotel. That'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, he'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.
00:26:29And maybe I'll think about it.
00:26:33Are you being serious right now?
00:26:37Julian...
00:26:38You're not actually going to...
00:26:40Not gonna do it?
00:26:43Fine. Leon, let's head out.
00:26:45Wait.
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.
00:27:11But let's get one thing straight.
00:27:14I'm not here to bankroll you and your girlfriend.
00:27:16So 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?
00:27:26I'm done!
00:27:30Aurora, 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 a motion.
00:27:45Use your focus to control it.
00:27:47Stop. That's not working.
00:27:49I'm giving it everything I've got.
00:27:50Your power's not the issue. Your control is.
00:27:53Okay. One more time.
00:27:55Miss Hale, you're finally back.
00:27:57I've brought Julian today to apologize.
00:27:59Looks like you've got something to handle.
00:28:00We can pick this up tomorrow.
00:28:02See ya.
00:28:02Bye.
00:28:06An apology, Carl?
00:28:08What exactly did he do that needs an apology?
00:28:11Miss Haley, come on.
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.
00:28:23I know that.
00:28:23But your father and I go way back.
00:28:24You can't just cut me out like this.
00:28:26Are you done?
00:28:27Then go.
00:28:29What are you doing just standing there?
00:28:32Apologize to her!
00:28:33I'm drowning and dead and you know it.
00:28:35Just say sorry.
00:28:36Get her back on your side.
00:28:37And everything 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!
00:28:50Now!
00:28:52Why the hell should I?
00:28:53Because I said so!
00:29:05Okay Carl, that's enough.
00:29:06Your stuff is already down in the basement.
00:29:08Go get it.
00:29:12Carl.
00:29:13Don't even think about making the Hale family clean up your mess.
00:29:16Not this time.
00:29:18Aurora, 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.
00:29:43Shut up, all 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, 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.
00:30:17Julian'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.
00:30:29Aurora, you think money gives you the right to do whatever you want of people?
00:30:33And all that stuff about supporting me?
00:30:35That was a coaching fee you already owed!
00:30:38A coaching fee?
00:30:40Really?
00:30:41Since 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.
00:30:53Your ability is weak because of what you are, a 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.
00:31:11Score 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?
00:31:19What more do you want?
00:31:20Julian'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
00:31:30around the school.
00:31:42And 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 neck.
00:32:01I 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, thought I'd take you home.
00:32:30Last 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.
00:32:39Alright, alright. Someone mess 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.
00:32:49Yeah?
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?
00:33:07That's just some old guy.
00:33:11Why is he so friendly with Aurora?
00:33:14Seriously?
00:33:14I'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.
00:34:16Yes!
00:34:17That'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!
00:35:05I did!
00:35:08You've got a real shot at winning that bet now.
00:35:12I couldn'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 and 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 was deliberately suppressing it.
00:35:56You're finally here to grab your stuff from the basement?
00:35:58Make 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.
00:36:10Admit it, Aurora.
00:36:12This is just another way for you to get my attention and you know it.
00:36:15Your attention.
00:36:16Right.
00:36:17Actually, that reminds me of something.
00:36:27Take all of this with you two.
00:36:29I don't want any of it.
00:36:30I told you, blue 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.
00:36:39All 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.
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.
00:36:57Take 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.
00:37:10Quantity, speed, and placement stability all count towards your score.
00:37:21Now this is a test worth showing up for.
00:37:24I'm not sure.
00:37:32That's insane!
00:37:34That's Chloe for you.
00:37:36That's Chloe for you.
00:37:38What's that?
00:37:41What is the future?
00:37:45What's that?
00:37:49You wanna be hungry?
00:37:52I'm not sure.
00:37:52I'm not sure.
00:37:54I think I'm not sure.
00:37:55What is she doing? She hasn't moved a single one.
00:37:59What? Already lost control?
00:38:01Called it. She's the same as always.
00:38:04Showing up to embarrass herself in front of everyone?
00:38:07Honestly, kind of sad.
00:38:14You look completely lost. Let me help.
00:38:25She can't pull it?
00:38:27They're totally locked in place.
00:38:45She's moving the whole group at once?
00:38:48No. She's going to beat me.
00:38:52I am not losing to you!
00:39:02Chloe Maser, complete.
00:39:05See that? Done!
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.
00:39:22It 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.
00:39:41Zero risk.
00:39:42Hyatt grade.
00:39:45So, how'd that go for everyone?
00:39:49Aurora's score for the park ordination test is perfect!
00:39:53Who's building a grid this whole time?
00:39:55She had every single target locked from the start.
00:39:58That's not possible.
00:39:58How did she just...
00:39:59Well, isn't this what you like?
00:40:02Well, isn't this what you like? Watching me mess up?
00:40:06That was a good one.
00:40:08That's what I'm gonna do.
00:40:10Settle down.
00:40:11The combined results for all ability assessments are in.
00:40:15Third place overall, Serena Vail.
00:40:18Serena, only third?
00:40:19then who's second second place Julian Cross how Julian's always first I'm not
00:40:26finished first place overall
00:40:33Aurora Hale composite grade 8% what Aurora is first she actually got an A
00:40:46plus catch that a plus top of the class I won Julian a bet's a bet bra skirt
00:41:00energy restraint rings ten laps around the school Aurora don't push it so you
00:41:06hit an A big deal you just got lucky once our bet was whether I could hit an A I
00:41:11did he lost he owes a penalty Lord Julian don't tell me you can't take a
00:41:16loss Aurora we're all classmates do you have to take it this far if you feel so
00:41:22bad for him feel free to take the punishment in his place you you know
00:41:25what I think you cheated you used to be that bad and lately you've been cozying
00:41:30up to that old man when did you even have time to train there's no way you
00:41:33improve that fast teacher Aurora's improvement is too dramatic I'm
00:41:38requesting she be examined do you have evidence if not shut your mouth otherwise
00:41:44I'll file a defamation complaint and you know what that means a dead last student
00:41:49like you your old school speak for themselves you are getting examined today
00:41:54right she must have a cheat device on her search her if she didn't cheat what's she
00:42:00afraid of fine you want to check me go ahead but then everyone who tested in the
00:42:05same session gets checked too especially you Chloe why should I be checked you're
00:42:10the one being reported burden of proof falls on the accuser you're claiming I
00:42:15cheated fine I agree to a search but if there's a search everyone who tested in
00:42:20the same session gets checked otherwise how do we know who really tampered with
00:42:24things how is she this sharp all of a sudden it's like she's a completely
00:42:27different person she has a point in the interest of fairness Aurora and Chloe both
00:42:32come with me to the examination room everyone else stays here now this is
00:42:38going to be interesting Aurora Chloe step up one at a time
00:42:47Aurora clean Chloe you seem nervous
00:42:59an energy transfer device that's not mine I don't know how it got there oh really it
00:43:05grew legs and crawled there on its own during the test someone used this to
00:43:10temporarily transfer energy to you helping you complete the assessment isn't
00:43:14that right Chloe looks like the real cheater isn't who everyone thought that's an
00:43:22energy transfer device so Aurora really did cheat she'll do anything to win
00:43:26that bet quiet here's my ruling the student who cheated was Chloe it was Chloe
00:43:36nullified can she even graduate is a formal demarriage will be issued and her
00:43:39test scores are nullified if you breathe a word about me you're done now does
00:43:46anyone else want to accuse me of cheating given that a cheat device was involved
00:43:50during the test in the interest of fully settling this dispute Aurora are you
00:43:54willing to retest absolutely and let a certain someone lose without any excuses
00:44:00the retest will be defensive stabilization each tester protects their
00:44:05own core sphere fewer hits on the core within the time limit means a higher
00:44:09score Aurora Serena begin
00:44:16that's Serena for you so precise so elegant
00:44:26told you she has no idea what she's doing she's always been good at one thing messing up
00:44:40I'd quit now if I were you
00:44:52I'd quit now if I were you
00:44:54Serena point deducted
00:45:02wait all the trajectories have changed they're all going in circles like they're locked onto an
00:45:08invisible track
00:45:23Serena point deducted Serena point deducted how is this possible the result of this test Aurora wins her performance speaks
00:45:35for itself no cheating involved
00:45:41now should we talk about our bet
00:45:47retest is done
00:45:48I didn't cheat time to settle the bet
00:45:51it's just one test
00:45:52do you have to be this relentless about it

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
00:52:46who's happy to let some old guy
00:52:47pay her way

00:53:03that was too far
00:53:04we're just worried about Aurora
00:53:06being taken advantage of
00:53:07we were just reminding her
00:53:09as friends
00:53:11your idea of reminding her
00:53:12is spreading filthy lies about her?
00:53:14but isn't she the one chasing you?
00:53:17the more you know about her situation
00:53:19the better
00:53:20let me clarify
00:53:21Aurora 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
00:53:32I mean it
00:53:35yes
00:53:36you can pursue me
00:53:38Aurora
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
00:53:44and pretend you're above it all?
00:53:46you think I can't see through this?

00:53:55Julian
00:53:56you are a joke
00:53:57I was the one who was blind
00:53:59I took you way too seriously now
00:54:00you'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
00:54:08and you're standing right next to her saying this
00:54:11you don't even find that embarrassing?
00:54:12I feel bad for her
00:54:14is your forgiveness supposed to be worth something?
00:54:17keep it for yourself
00:54:18fine

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
00:54:29while I'm stuck with a broke loser like Julian?
00:54:33don't be upset
00:54:34everything I said back there
00:54:35I was just annoyed at Aurora for being so full of herself
00:54:38I said it to get a reaction
00:54:39you're the one I want to be with
00:54:41I'm not giving her any opening
00:54:43I 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
00:54:51I just can't measure up to her
00:54:53oh stop
00:54:54someone like Aurora doesn't compare to you
00:54:58come on
00:54:58we've been playing for hours
00:55:00you must be hungry

00:55:42try again
00:55:43payment decline insufficient funds
00:55:45you can't pay and you ordered all that?
00:55:47from the way he was acting
00:55:47I actually thought he was somebody
00:55:50sir
00:55:50would you like to try a different payment method?
00:55:54dad
00:55:54what 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
00:56:01by the way
00:56:02you're on your own for next year's tuition
00:56:05so he's broke
00:56:06showing off like that
00:56:07and 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
00:56:14she's been supporting
00:56:15Julian
00:56:16I'm suddenly not hungry anymore
00:56:18you finish up
00:56:21Serena
00:56:21let 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
00:56:31a whole month of part-time work
00:56:33probably pays less than one day as Aurora's private ability coach
00:56:36am I wrong?
00:56:38what are you saying?
00:56:39it's very simple
00:56:39what you need to do right now is
00:56:41go 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
00:56:51about you
00:56:52what you need most right now
00:56:54is money
00:56:55coaching her
00:56:56pays more than any odd job you could pick up outside
00:56:58and your dad's debt
00:56:59that 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
00:57:12what exactly do I have to spend?
00:57:15all right
00:57:16I'm just looking out for you
00:57:17if 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
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?
00:57:49you interrupted my evening for
00:57:51this?
00:57:53Julian is really struggling right now
00:57:54you'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
00:58:02do 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
00:58:10I'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
00:58:24if the only reason you're shutting Julian out
00:58:27is because of me and him
00:58:28I can break up with him
00:58:30please don't
00:58:31then he'll turn around
00:58:33and say I forced you to leave him
00:58:35I get it Aurora
00:58:36you're just still holding a grudge aren't you?
00:58:39stop pretending to know me
00:58:41let's talk about you Serena
00:58:42you liked Julian because he was the top student
00:58:45the school's heartthrob
00:58:47everyone's chosen heir
00:58:48now 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
00:59:07and without a better future
00:59:09how could he keep spending money on you?
00:59:12Aurora
00:59:12enough
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
00:59:34stop going after Serena
00:59:39you got sold out
00:59:40and you're still counting the money for them
00:59:41what did you say?
00:59:42Serena thinks you're broke
00:59:43thinks you're a burden
00:59:44thinks your dad is an embarrassment
00:59:45and she's putting on this whole act of self-sacrifice
00:59:48while pushing you back at me
00:59:49and 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
00:59:57Julian
00:59:58I have a better coach now
01:00:00and a better boyfriend
01:00:01someone like you
01:00:03not a consideration
01:00:04Aurora
01:00:05don't think bringing some random guy
01:00:07to make me jealous
01:00:07is going to change anything
01:00:08Aurora
01:00:09ignore 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
01:00:18to push Aurora and Julian back together
01:00:20that would give me a way
01:00:21to get close to Leon
01:00:24better coach
01:00:26better boyfriend
01:00:28hmm?
01:00:29what?
01:00:29any objections?

01:00:38in the year
01:00:39I want you to surpass

01:00:56I died with the name of a failure
01:00:58while Julian and Serena
01:01:00walked over my father's body
