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.
00:00:52How?
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.
00:01:01If you hadn't put on that ability suppressor just to impress him, your electric power might
00:01:06have 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!
00:01:47S-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,
00:02:07I wouldn't have given you a second look.
00:02:21You had this coming.
00:02:34Aurora!
00:02:42Leon.
00:02:46I was too late.
00:02:48I'm sorry.
00:02:50I'm so sorry.
00:02:55Leon.
00:02:56Leon.
00:03:09Leon.
00:03:26No.
00:03:31Stop.
00:03:33You're wasting your energy.
00:03:35There'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.
00:04:02It never did.
00:04:06You just never saw that.
00:04:10All those years,
00:04:11Dad kept bringing up Leon.
00:04:13Kept 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.
00:04:31I was so blind.
00:04:34You were right there and I couldn't see it.
00:04:38And now it's too late.
00:04:45Leon.
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.
00:05:18No!
00:05:19No!
00:05:23God, you're stupid.
00:05:24Bloods your system with noxious resonance.
00:05:26I'm the one who had your family killed.
00:05:27Aurora!
00:05:32I'm alive.
00:05:34No wounds.
00:05:37No collar.
00:05:43Which means
00:05:44this is before Julian gave me the collar?
00:05:47This is
00:05:48seventh 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
00:06:08and releases harmful radiation.
00:06:10Long-term exposure causes irreversible damage.
00:06:12It'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?
00:06:22You?
00:06:26Isn't she the worst student in the class?
00:06:30Great.
00:06:31Here 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.
00:07:07She 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, no 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,
00:07:45I wouldn't have given you a second look.
00:07:54What?
00:08:01Aurora!
00:08:02Pull back!
00:08:03Aurora!
00:08:20You fucked up again!
00:08:22Look what you did!
00:08:24Zero control, huh?
00:08:25Just leaking all over the place like a busted wire!
00:08:28She shouldn't even been rolled here.
00:08:30Half-blood trash.
00:08:34Apologize to Serena!
00:08:35Now!
00:08:40Is she trying to pick a fight?
00:08:42Julian is the strongest ability user in the whole school!
00:08:44Julian said it himself.
00:08:46Victor Hale is grooming him as successor.
00:08:47He's set to inherit the whole Hale estate.
00:08:49Aurora's just some servants kid.
00:08:50Victor Hale's successor?
00:08:52Heir to the Hale estate?
00:08:53And I'm the servants kid.
00:08:55Julian, you've really been out here telling people that?
00:08:57Stop making shit up!
00:08:59You heard Serena apologize to her right now!
00:09:01Julian, you're so sweet.
00:09:04You heard him apologize?
00:09:06He's basically the heir to the Hale family.
00:09:08Heir to the Hale family?
00:09:10You don't even know his last name.
00:09:12You know what?
00:09:13You're exhausting!
00:09:14You're not riding back with us today!
00:09:16She's different today.
00:09:18Something's off.
00:09:19You're not letting me ride with you?
00:09:21Julian, you've got it backwards.
00:09:23You're not riding with me.
00:09:30Where's she coming?
00:09:31No.
00:09:32No way.
00:09:36Is she serious right now?
00:09:38That's the Hale family airship!
00:09:40She just got on?
00:09:41By herself?
00:09:43Before everyone else?
00:09:44She's not even gonna wait for Julian?
00:09:46A 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.
00:10:06He's your son, Carl.
00:10:08Don't tell me you forgot that.
00:10:09My son is your private coach.
00:10:11The 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.
00:10:19He 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!
00:10:35Get out of the pilot's seat!
00:10:36Now!
00:10:36Get down!
00:10:38You think you belong up there?
00:10:39What?
00:10:40You 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?
00:10:52I 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.
00:11:03I'll let it go.
00:11:04Aurora, is this really worth it?
00:11:07I don't need you to let anything go.
00:11:09And I'd really appreciate it if you stopped following me around.
00:11:13Are you kidding me right now?
00:11:15Julian, 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 going to win that?
00:11:34Come on.
00:11:35She's not worth it.
00:11:39Good riddance.
00:11:41Blocking the way like she owns the place.
00:11:43Who does she think she is?
00:11:44Carl.
00:11:45Do not clear them for departure.
00:11:48Miss.
00:11:49Miss, 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 going to 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.
00:12:07You always do.
00:12:11See that?
00:12:12That's how it's done.
00:12:14It's not even your airship.
00:12:16Stop pretending.
00:12:19Dad.
00:12:20There'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.
00:12:31Nice story.
00:12:32Who's your dad?
00:12:32The 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?
00:12:53You 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...
00:13:08There has to be a mistake.
00:13:09You had no authority over that airship.
00:13:12Get off me!
00:13:13I 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.
00:13:29You'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.
00:13:57It's all still here.
00:14:00We still have a chance to fix this.
00:14:11Dad.
00:14:29Aurora!
00:14:33Without you...
00:14:35None of it means anything to me
00:14:40Dad...
00:14:43Leon...
00:14:45Look at that! You actually used his name
00:14:47Know that guy today?
00:14:49Aurora, you okay?
00:14:52I'm fine
00:14:53Hasn't seen her fiancƩ in a while
00:14:55and 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, I'm being dismissed
00:15:11Leon...
00:15:11Would you want to have dinner with me tonight?
00:15:14Just us?
00:15:17I...
00:15:19Yeah, absolutely
00:15:22Of course
00:15:29You look nervous
00:15:31Sorry
00:15:31I just didn't expect you to invite me like this
00:15:34out 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...
00:15:48Nice 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
00:16:19Strongest bloody ability user alive
00:16:21Pretty sure you've heard of him
00:16:22Aurora
00:16:23New coach?
00:16:25I'm your coach
00:16:26If you let him anywhere near your training
00:16:30I'm gone
00:16:31Of 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...
00:16:46What?
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
00:16:58I 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
00:17:04We'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
00:17:22And it's...
00:17:24I don't know
00:17:25It means something
00:17:26To me
00:17:31Every single day
00:17:32It'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, back up
00:17:52She's not interested
00:18:07Aurora?
00:18:15Aurora?
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
00:18:34Not yet
00:18:35Not yet
00:18:36Julian
00:18:36What you owe me goes way beyond just my life
00:18:39And 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
00:19:07Everyone 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? Who?
00:19:24Chloe, shut up
00:19:28Perfect timing
00:19:29Why 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?
00:19:39Aurora, are we done?
00:19:41Class is starting, I'm not doing this right now
00:19:44Fine, 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
00:19:53I need to get them back on my side
00:19:59Actually, since everyone's here
00:20:00I'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
00:20:13You 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
00:20:23Julian 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
00:20:34But since we're all here
00:20:36Let's celebrate!
00:20:39Everyone's welcome
00:20:40It's on me
00:20:41He'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, never got a thank you
00:20:53Not doing that again
00:21:00This is the place
00:21:02I 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 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!
00:21:27Are you Julian's dog or Serena's?
00:21:28Neither of them has said anything, so what are you barking for?
00:21:34I thought you said you weren't coming
00:21:35Oh right, it's your birthday
00:21:37Honestly almost forgot until I ran into you just now
00:21:40What are you playing at?
00:21:41Is this about me not inviting you?
00:21:43Aurora, it's Julian's birthday
00:21:45Don't start something
00:21:46At the end of the day, you're just the daughter of his family's servant
00:21:49So, say that again
00:21:51Who do you think you are?
00:21:52A 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, let's not make this a whole thing
00:22:18Aurora, I'm not gonna hold any of this against you
00:22:22You said you'd come celebrate, right?
00:22:24Everyone's here
00:22:26Don't make me look bad
00:22:26So this party really matters to you
00:22:28If I tank your whole rich kid reputation tonight
00:22:31That'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
00:22:40It'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
00:22:49You 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 gonna 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
00:23:03That's more like it
00:23:05Alright everyone, let's go
00:23:09Okay, what are you up to?
00:23:14Think of it as my thank you for stepping in back there
00:23:16You're about to watch something really good
00:23:19I 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
00:23:41Order 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
00:23:58When that bill hits the table, your face is gonna 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 is paying can actually cover it
00:24:24Oh please, Julian's got the tab
00:24:27Have whatever's left
00:24:28Consider it a treat for the stray
00:24:30She's not wrong, I ordered more than enough
00:24:32Help yourself
00:24:33The guy you brought though, he's not included
00:24:36Oh, so I'm not paying? That's great
00:24:40Mr. 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?
00:24:54Wasn'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 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? Aurora?
00:25:18No way! This hotel is Julian's family's, everyone knows that!
00:25:24Funny how that works
00:25:26You book the fanciest room in the building, let everyone eat and drink whatever they want, and somehow the bill
00:25:33ends 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?
00:25:47The Stellar Hotel, that's your family's, right?
00:25:50It 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, but 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
00:26:06Here'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?
00:26:36Julian
00:26:38You're not actually going to...
00:26:40Not gonna do it?
00:26:42Fine, Leon, let's head out
00:26:45Wait
00:26:47Please
00:26:55There we go
00:26:59Manager, I've got the bill
00:27:02Total, 8,600,000
00:27:07Happy birthday Julian
00:27:10I'll cover it this time
00:27:12Let's get one thing straight
00:27:14I'm not here to bankloat you and your girlfriend
00:27:16So he actually doesn't have money
00:27:18He's just been faking this whole time?
00:27:21One more chance, in front of everyone
00:27:24Who's the owner and who's the servant?
00:27:26I'm done!
00:27:31Aurora, nobody has ever made me feel like this
00:27:33You're going to pay for tonight, every single bit of it
00:27:37Oh Julian, we're just getting started
00:27:42Keep the frequency steady, don't force it with a motion, use 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
00:28:01See ya
00:28:02Bye
00:28:06An apology, Carl?
00:28:08What exactly did he do that needs an apology?
00:28:10Miss Haley, come on, I 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, you 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 in debt and you know it
00:28:34Just say sorry, get 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
00:28:45I'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, go 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, not my story to tell
00:29:31Aurora, what about me?
00:29:33I'm way easier to deal with than Julian, I promise
00:29:35For real, if you could fund him, you could fund me
00:29:43Shut up!
00:29:45All of you
00:29:51Feeling good about yourself?
00:29:52You humiliated me in front of everyone, what, because I didn't pick you over Serena?
00:29:58The audacity to say that out loud
00:30:00Incredible
00:30:01Let me be straight with you Aurora, it 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 and now you want to act like you're the victim?
00:30:16Hang on! Julian's the one who couldn't pay his own bill last night
00:30:20Yeah, so why is he making this her fault?
00:30:22She's the one who made me invite everyone in the first place
00:30:25I didn't even want to go
00:30:26And 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
00:30:47Tell 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, fine, 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, you put on a bra and a skirt, strap on energy restraint rings, and run 10 laps
00:31:30around the school
00:31:32What more do you want? Julian's literally putting himself on the line here
00:31:35Fine
00:31:37If I win, you put on a bra and a skirt, strap on energy restraint rings, and run 10 laps
00:31:42around the school
00:31:43And if I win?
00:31:45Same thing for me
00:31:46Same thing for me
00:31:47Is she serious?
00:31:48She's going up against Julian on an ability assessment?
00:31:51800? She barely scrapes 400 on a good day
00:31:55Sure, you're on
00:31:56Last time around
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, thought I'd take you home
00:32:30Last time you died right in front of me and there was nothing I could do
00:32:33That's never happening again
00:32:35Okay, what's going on with you today?
00:32:38Nothing
00:32:39Alright, alright, someone messed with you today?
00:32:42No, I've just been thinking
00:32:44I'm done being at the bottom of the class
00:32:46I want to actually train, get my ability to where it should be
00:32:49Yeah? You mean that?
00:32:54That's what I'm talking about, that's my girl
00:33:04Wait, who 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, I 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, that'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, that'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, just guide it
00:34:36Don't force it, just guide it
00:34:36Easy, easy, you'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
00:35:17Leon 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
00:35:27Julian just called me stupid and tricked me into wearing a bunch of green nullstone
00:35:32You 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? Make sure you get everything
00:36:00Feeling 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
00:36:07You never will
00:36:08You seem really sure about that
00:36:10Admit it, Aurora
00:36:11This is just another way for you to get my attention and you know it
00:36:15Your attention
00:36:16Right, actually, that reminds me of something
00:36:26Take 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! I 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, right?
00:36:47That's why her ability was stuck this whole time
00:36:49It was you! Julian, 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
00:36:59Was that clear enough?
00:37:03Next up is the port coordination test
00:37:05The rules are simple
00:37:06Within the time limit, help 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
00:37:32That's insane!
00:37:34That's Chloe for you!
00:37:39That's insane!
00:37:49That's Chloe for you!
00:37:55What is she doing?
00:37:56She 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, kinda sad
00:38:14You look completely lost!
00:38:16Let me help!
00:38:25You can't pull it!
00:38:26They're totally locked in place!
00:38:32No!
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
00:39:04See 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
00:39:22It has to be stored upright
00:39:24You flipped it in the rush
00:39:2530 more seconds and the whole dock goes up
00:39:27She'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
00:39:40Zero error, zero risk, high at grade
00:39:45So...
00:39:46How'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?!
00:39:55She had every single target locked from the start!
00:39:58That's not possible! How did she just...
00:40:00Well...
00:40:01Isn'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
00:40:14Third place overall, Serena Vale
00:40:18Serena only third?
00:40:19Then who's second?
00:40:20Second place...
00:40:22Julian Cross
00:40:23How?! Julian's always first!
00:40:26I'm not finished
00:40:29First place overall...
00:40:33Aurora Hale
00:40:35Composite grade...
00:40:36A percent
00:40:38What?!
00:40:41Aurora is first?!
00:40:42She actually got an A plus!
00:40:46Catch that?
00:40:48A plus...
00:40:50Top of the class
00:40:55I won!
00:40:56Julian, a bet's a bet!
00:40:59Bra, skirt, energy restraint rings!
00:41:01Ten laps around the school!
00:41:04Aurora!
00:41:05Don't push it!
00:41:06So you hit an A?
00:41:07Big deal!
00:41:07You just got lucky once!
00:41:09Our bet was whether I could hit an A!
00:41:10I did!
00:41:11He lost!
00:41:12He owes a penalty!
00:41:13Lord Julian, don't tell me you can't take a loss!
00:41:17Aurora!
00:41:18We'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!
00:41:30When did you even have time to train?
00:41:32There's no way you improved that fast!
00:41:36Teacher, Aurora's improvement is too dramatic.
00:41:38I'm requesting she be examined.
00:41:40Do you have evidence?
00:41:40If 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 scores speak for themselves!
00:41:51You are getting examined today!
00:41:54Right!
00:41:55She must have a cheat device on her!
00:41:57Search her!
00:41:58If she didn't cheat, what's she afraid of?
00:42:00Fine.
00:42:01You wanna check me?
00:42:03Go ahead.
00:42:03But 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!
00:42:11Burden of proof falls on the accuser.
00:42:14You're claiming I cheated?
00:42:15Fine.
00:42:16I agree to a search.
00:42:17But if there's a search, everyone who tested in the same session gets checked.
00:42:21Otherwise, 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.
00:42:29In 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.
00:42:48Clean.
00:42:51Chloe.
00:42:52You seem nervous.
00:42:59An energy transfer device.
00:43:01Aurora.
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 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?
00:43:34It was Chloe?
00:43:36Nullified?
00:43:36Can she even graduate?
00:43:37A formal demarriage will be issued and her test scores are nullified.
00:43:42If you breathe a word about me, you're done.
00:43:46Now, 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.
00:44:09Aurora, 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!
00:45:04They're all going in circles.
00:45:06Like they're locked onto an invisible track.
00:45:23Serena, point deducted.
00:45:25Serena, point deducted.
00:45:27Serena, point deducted.
00:45:27How is this possible?
00:45:30The result of this test?
00:45:32Aurora wins.
00:45:34Her performance speaks for itself.
00:45:36No cheating involved.
00:45:40Now, should we talk about our bet?
00:45:47Retest is done.
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.
00:45:52Do 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!
00:46:12Aurora, 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,
00:46:19but 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,
00:46:31I'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.
00:46:45Or 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.
00:46:58She passed out!
00:47:00Get her to the nurse's office!
00:47:12Happy now?
00:47:14That look suits you, actually.
00:47:21Feeling 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 hanging around some older guy,
00:47:34suddenly 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.
00:47:55Aurora?
00:47:55Aurora?
00:48:16Why aren't you in the training room?
00:48:19Training's on hold tonight.
00:48:20On hold?
00:48:22Because tonight, I'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.
00:49:00Then 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?
00:49:27Why is it always her?
00:49:29Don't lose your nerve.
00:49:31Win it back.
00:49:37Her ability is so unfair!
00:49:40Just a harmless little current.
00:49:41It won't hurt you.
00:49:42Feel 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.
00:49:54But Aurora can do it.
00:49:56When did she get this good?
00:50:09That's fast!
00:50:21You 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...
00:50:49Unreal.
00:50:49How does Aurora know someone like him?
00:51:03How is anyone supposed to return that?!
00:51:14That...
00:51:15Easy?
00:51:25He...
00:51:26Returned all of them?
00:51:27How is that possible?
00:51:30Julian's speed looks like child's play next to him.
00:51:42His rhythm is breaking down.
00:51:45Opening...
00:51:46On the left.
00:51:55Aurora!
00:52:08They won?
00:52:10That was brutal.
00:52:11You were incredible!
00:52:13Your reaction was fast enough too.
00:52:15Really?
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.
00:53:10Your 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.
00:53:23I'm the one pursuing her.
00:53:26Impossible!
00:53:27Why would you want her?!
00:53:28She'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 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.
00:53:50I'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.
00:54:03Who exactly do you think you are?
00:54:05That the world revolves around you?
00:54:07You're with Serena, and 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.
00:54:19Very fine.
00:54:20Aurora, you'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.
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 beaten 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.
00:54:54Someone 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.
00:55:02Really?
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?
00:55:31Check, please.
00:55:38Payment decline insufficient funds.
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, 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.
00:56:36Am I wrong?
00:56:37What 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.
00:56:45I 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?
00:57:01I 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?
00:57:34Yes.
00:57:36It's always been true.
00:57:39Aurora, I need to ask you something.
00:57:43What is it?
00:57:44Could you let Julian continue as your ability coach?
00:57:48Seriously?
00:57:49You interrupted my evening for this?
00:57:52Julian is really struggling right now.
00:57:54You've probably heard about his father.
00:57:56Your family has plenty of money and Julian's ability is strong.
00:57:59If you agree, I 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 and you want me to pay him a salary
00:58:06and effectively support both of you?
00:58:10Aurora, I'm willing to forgive everything you've done.
00:58:12From now on, we keep it strictly professional.
00:58:15Coach and student, that's all.
00:58:18I remember someone just said he'd never forgive me.
00:58:24Aurora, if the only reason you're shutting Julian out is because of me and him,
00:58:29I can break up with him.
00:58:30Please don't.
00:58:31Then he'll turn around and say I forced you to leave him.
00:58:35I 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 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 and 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.
00:59:10How could he keep spending money on you?
00:59:12Aurora, enough.
00:59:13I've always believed women should support each other.
00:59:15But you've been reading the worst possible intentions into 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 a good thing?
00:59:25You love him.
00:59:26After all, keep your charity.
00:59:30I don't collect garbage.
00:59:32Aurora, enough!
00:59:34Stop going after Serena!
00:59:39You got sold out and you're still counting the money for them.
00:59:41What did you say?
00:59:42Serena 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 while pushing you back at me.
00:59:49And you're still defending her?
00:59:51Julian, you're a complete idiot.
00:59:54Julian, don't!
00:59:55Aurora and I just have a misunderstanding.
00:59:58Julian, I have a better coach now.
01:00:00And a better boyfriend.
01:00:01Someone like you, not a consideration.
01:00:04Aurora, don't think bringing some random guy to make me jealous is gonna change anything!
01:00:09Aurora, ignore him.
01:00:11Let's go.
01:00:14Julian doesn't have much use left.
01:00:16But Leon, I 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 I need to earn those words.
01:00:36From here on, I'm training you to be number one in the year.
01:00:39I want you to surpass Julia and Serena in all four areas.
01:00:42Combine combat, precision control, sustained output, and environmental takeover.
01:00:46At this year's graduation ceremony, you'll stand on that stage as the student representative.
01:00:51Everyone who ever called you a failure will have to look up at you.
01:00:54In my past life, I was useless in the war.
01:00:57I died with the name of a failure, while Julian and Serena walked over my father's body.
01:01:02This time, I 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.
01:01:10I'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 gonna hold a little money against your own father?
01:01:39That was my tuition for Nexi My Citrus.
01:01:42Tuition?
01:01:43When you were living at the Hale Estate, you never once asked me for tuition money.
01:01:47When you were with Aurora, you were bringing home cash hand over win.
01:01:50You remember how we lived?
01:01:52And now, you screwed it all up.
01:01:55Shut up.
01:01:56You shut up!
01:01:57A brainless heiress like Aurora, you should have had her completely wrapped around your finger.
01:02:01And you couldn't even keep up the act.
01:02:03Look 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.
01:02:16Carl!
01:02:17Get out here!
01:02:21Three months, Carl.
01:02:22When 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!
01:02:34I don't have a cent!
01:02:36No money?
01:02:37Then why did you even come back?
01:02:42Drop the act, Carl.
01:02:44Boys, beat them both.
01:02:50Stop!
01:02:52Stop!
01:02:53Stop!
01:02:53Stop!
01:02:53Stop hitting!
01:02:54You're going to kill us!
01:02:56Can'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.
01:03:01Her father is Victor Hall.
01:03:02Three million, five million, it's nothing to her.
01:03:04Is that right?
01:03:05If my son is in trouble, she'll pay.
01:03:06She always does.
01:03:07Fine.
01:03:08Tomorrow at noon.
01:03:09If I don't see three million, I kill your son.
01:03:11Miss Hale!
01:03:13Save Julian!
01:03:14He's been taken!
01:03:14The kidnappers want three million!
01:03:16Kidnappers?
01:03:17Then call the police.
01:03:17What are you coming to me for?
01:03:18We 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.
01:03:32I'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!
01:03:56Fine.
01:03:57I'm not sticking around for this.
01:03:59Miss Hale, you can't be this cruel!
01:04:01Carl, what's going on?
01:04:02Mr. Hale, please!
01:04:03Julian'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.
01:04:18How you let off steam is entirely up to you.
01:04:21Understood.
01:04:21Dad.
01:04:25Miss, here he is.
01:04:26Oh, you knocked him out?
01:04:27Oh, we had no way of knowing he was a friend of yours.
01:04:30It just...
01:04:30No, I meant...
01:04:31You 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!
01:04:46Please 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!
01:04:50Keep 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...
01:05:00Help me.
01:05:01What if you cripple him?
01:05:02What 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.
01:05:15The cash or the funeral?
01:05:17Does it hurt?
01:05:19This doesn't even come close to one ten-thousandth of what I suffered in my past life.
01:05:28Aurora...
01:05:29You came for me?
01:05:30Of course.
01:05:31Your 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...
01:05:38Now you know who actually cares about you, don't you?
01:05:41Everything before.
01:05:42That was all my fault.
01:05:43I swear.
01:05:45From 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...
01:05:53For you.
01:05:54Your favorite.
01:05:55Hazelnut 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.
01:06:03I also got an ice americano with a double shot.
01:06:05Weren't you into strong coffee lately?
01:06:08Aurora...
01:06:08I made this for you myself.
01:06:14Wow.
01:06:15That's a full spread.
01:06:16That'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.
01:06:43You'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?
01:06:51I'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?
01:07:03Stop performing.
01:07:06Okay, I admit there was something between Serena and me before, but since I cleared the air with you, I've
01:07:11been 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.
01:07:22Didn'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?
01:07:27She'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?
01:07:32I was actually gonna 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.
01:07:38But who the hell do you think you are speaking to Leon like that?
01:07:42Stay away from me from now on.
01:07:44Come 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.
01:08:01Aurora.
01:08:03Did he hurt you like this before?
01:08:04In 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, but the dream ended.
01:08:20I woke up.
01:08:25Was I in your dream?
01:08:30Yes, at the very end of the dream you appeared.
01:08:33And after that, everything was better.
01:08:35Once the graduation ceremony is over, I'll tell you the rest of the story.
01:08:40Good. I'll wait.
01:08:42Oh, you'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, don't be nervous tonight.
01:09:09Dad can't wait to hear your speech.
01:09:11Don't worry, I won't disappoint you.
01:09:14Go 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.
01:09:29Tonight 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.
01:09:43Each 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.
01:09:55I'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...
01:10:05I have an accusation!
01:10:14Aurora has no right to stand here.
01:10:17She has no morals.
01:10:19She's some old man's kept 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.
01:10:44A 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.
01:10:52Aurora, 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 gonna 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?
01:11:39I 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?
01:11:55Someone 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.
01:12:07You tell everyone, what is the relationship between me and the man in that photo?
01:12:16The person in the photo is, no. If 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. Still love turning everything on its head.
01:12:34Aurora, 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,
01:12:45impersonated a wealthy heir, and 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. See 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? Doesn'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. Peace is not words.
01:13:24It is not applause in an auditorium while saying, mutual prosperity.
01:13:27Peace 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?
01:13:34Anyone with no morals, anyone who harms fellow students, anyone 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?
01:13:46Go pack your things and get out of this school.
01:13:49You misunderstood.
01:13:54No way! He's...
01:13:56Does that mean?
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?!
01:14:05Oh my god!
01:14:07Serena and the others are finished.
01:14:09Oh my god!
01:14:14Principal, it's in your hands from here.
01:14:17The 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.
01:14:29I didn't mean to!
01:14:31Oh no! No!
01:14:33This can't be happening!
01:14:37It's a shame Julian, you'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.
01:14:47By the way, my daughter is not involved with anyone other than her fiancƩ, Mr. Hart.
01:14:52I heard that the position of my daughter's most loved man, you stole that from me.
01:14:57I apologize, sir.
01:14:59Don't apologize, you earned it!
01:15:02Aurora, I said I had something for you after the ceremony, but I think now is the right moment.
01:15:08Once, I was a step too late.
01:15:10That 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.
01:15:25This 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.
01:15:56Future son-in-law, I'll let you go.
01:15:56I'll let you go.
01:15:56I'll let you go.
