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!
00:00:58Thank God I 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.
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!
00:01:30You 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,
00:02:08I wouldn't have given you a second look.
00:02:11No!
00:02:23You had this coming.
00:02:34Aurora!
00:02:45I was too late.
00:02:48I'm sorry.
00:02:50I'm so sorry.
00:03:07I was too late.
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.
00:04:14Kept mentioning the engagement.
00:04:16Leon was always just there.
00:04:19Quietly, awkwardly there.
00:04:21And I threw that away,
00:04:23chasing someone who never gave a damn about me.
00:04:26I wasted everything.
00:04:30My whole life.
00:04:32I was so blind.
00:04:35You were right there and I couldn't see it.
00:04:38And now it's too late.
00:04:45Leon,
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.
00:05:23You're the one who had your family killed.
00:05:27Aurora!
00:05:31I'm alive.
00:05:35No wounds.
00:05:37No collar.
00:05:43Which means,
00:05:45this is before Julian gave me the collar?
00:05:48This is
00:05:48seventh year practical ops class?
00:05:52I can still fix this.
00:05:54I can change everything.
00:06:02The blue stone gives basic suppression of the host's energy.
00:06:05The green stone is different.
00:06:06It actively feeds on the host's energy
00:06:08and releases harmful radiation.
00:06:10Long-term exposure causes irreversible damage.
00:06:13It's not an energy stone.
00:06:14It's null stone.
00:06:15Now,
00:06:16I'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,
00:06:39if she actually pulls it off for once,
00:06:41I'll clap.
00:06:42I will.
00:06:47Now,
00:06:47release your current.
00:07:07She can't even float an apple.
00:07:09Like,
00:07:09what 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.
00:07:21Try again.
00:07:22Try again.
00:07:24Try again.
00:07:35You're still on that?
00:07:37Every single day of those seven years
00:07:39was something I had to survive.
00:07:41If it weren't for your father's name,
00:07:45I wouldn't have given you a second look.
00:07:53What?
00:08:01Aurora!
00:08:02Pull back!
00:08:17Oh
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. She shouldn't even been rolled here half
00:08:31-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 Julian said it
00:08:45himself
00:08:45Victor Hale is grooming him as successor
00:08:47He's set to inherit the whole Hale estate Aurora is just some servants kid Victor Hale's successor
00:08:51Heir to the Hale estate and I'm the servants kid Julian. You've really been out here telling people that stop
00:08:58making shit up
00:08:59You heard Serena apologize to her right now Julian. You're so sweet
00:09:04You heard 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. You know what you're exhausting. You're not riding
00:09:14back with us today
00:09:16She's different today something's off. You're not letting me ride with you, Julian. You've got it backwards
00:09:23You're not riding with me
00:09:30Where's she coming? No, no way
00:09:36Is she serious right now? That's the Hale family airship. She 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. She should
00:09:50be expelled for this
00:09:58Aurora how come you're not waiting for Julian today?
00:10:03Julian who his last name is cross not Hale? He's your son Carl don't tell me you forgot that my
00:10:09son is your private coach
00:10:10The Hale family's always been generous. Surely 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 everything the Hale family has. It's only a matter of time before
00:10:26it's ours
00:10:30Aurora
00:10:33You're a servant's kid get out of the pilot seat now get down
00:10:38You think you belong up there? What 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. I can't let anyone find
00:10:56out. I'm just the parking guy's son
00:11:01Look, I'm not even mad anymore. I'll let it go. Aurora
00:11:05Is this really worth it?
00:11:07I don't need you to let anything go and I'd really appreciate it if you stopped following me around
00:11:13Are 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 she really thought she was gonna win that
00:11:34Come on she's not worth it
00:11:40Good riddance blocking the way like she owns the place. Who does she think she is? Carl
00:11:45Do 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 if that airship leaves you're not gonna like what happens next
00:12:02You're really worked up today
00:12:04But once julian comes back and says the right things you'll drop it you always do
00:12:11See that that's how it's done
00:12:14It's not even your airship stop pretending
00:12:19Dad
00:12:20There's a staff member here at the academy carl cross. He just authorized the departure of our private airship without
00:12:25permission
00:12:26I think we should let him go
00:12:28Effective immediately
00:12:30Sure nice story. Who's your dad the principal is she about to say she owns the school, too?
00:12:37You really think one phone call fixes this
00:12:41Just watch
00:12:51What happened you literally just left the academy forced a lockdown system override
00:13:00Call cross
00:13:02For unauthorized eye shopping of private property you're terminated effective immediately
00:13:07No, that's not that there has to be a mistake
00:13:09You had no authority over that airship
00:13:11Get off me. I was doing my job
00:13:15He actually got fired one call and she just

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 wait what
00:16:39I said I already have a new coach
00:16:43I don't need you anymore. You can go
00:16:46You what you heard me leave

00:16:56Something is seriously wrong with her today. I need to get this back under control
00:17:00Come on aurora. I know you're mad about me and serena, but there's nothing going on
00:17:05We're just friends sure
00:17:11I actually came tonight to give you something
00:17:14Open it
00:17:20It'll help stabilize your ability long term and it's
00:17:24I don't know it means something to me
00:17:31Every single day it's been draining you destroying you from the inside
00:17:41Nobody else is going to deal with your ability the way I do
00:17:45Here let me put it on
00:17:47Don't
00:17:51Relax back up. She's not interested
00:18:07Aurora
00:18:09Aurora
00:18:09Aurora once that collar is on you can't take it off yourself. That's not exactly a romantic gift
00:18:22Leon's got a point
00:18:23Leon's got a point
00:18:23I'm not putting that on not interested in being anyone's pet
00:18:27That's rich coming from the girl who used to follow me around all day
00:18:30Kind of hard to take seriously
00:18:35Not yet
00:18:36Julian
00:18:37What you owe me goes way beyond just my life
00:18:40And i'm going to get every single piece of it back
00:18:47You actually came back? A servant's daughter kicks the owner off his own airship and just walks in like nothing
00:18:53happened?
00:18:54Aurora, do you seriously think you belong here?
00:18:56She got the academy to lock down the whole parking lot yesterday over 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 you're just one of the help
00:19:14Okay, 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
00:19:31Right 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 that'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 julian only wears the latest everything there's no way he's broke
00:20:26Aurora's out here in discount clothes trying to act like she runs the place
00:20:30It's actually embarrassing julian's not usually one to make a big deal of things
00:20:34But since we're all here, let's celebrate
00:20:39Everyone's welcome
00:20:40It'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
00:20:52Never got a thank you
00:20:54Not doing that again
00:21:00This is the place
00:21:03I spent a fortune throwing julian a birthday party here
00:21:06And right when I was about to tell him how I felt
00:21:08He kissed serena in front of me
00:21:11Julian
00:21:12Tonight 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
00:21:19Crashing his birthday like it's nothing?
00:21:22It's a hotel
00:21:23I 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
00:21:35Oh 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
00:21:44It's julian's birthday
00:21:45Don't start something
00:21:46At the end of the day
00:21:48You're just the daughter of his family's servant
00:21:49So say that again
00:21:51Who do you think you are?
00:21:53A servant's daughter putting her hands on her
00:21:57You actually pushed me?
00:21:59I'll deal with you myself
00:22:02Stop
00:22:10What do you think you're doing?
00:22:13Enough
00:22:15It's my birthday
00:22:16Let's not make this a whole thing
00:22:18Aurora
00:22:19I'm not gonna hold any of this against you
00:22:22You said you'd come celebrate right?
00:22:24Everyone's here
00:22:25Don't make me look bad
00:22:26So this party really matters to you
00:22:29If I tank your whole rich kid reputation tonight
00:22:32That'd hurt worse than anything else I could do
00:22:34Wouldn't it?
00:22:35All right then
00:22:36Let's have some fun
00:22:39Right okay
00:22:41It's your birthday
00:22:41You want everyone to have a good time
00:22:43I just remembered
00:22:44I 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
00:22:54You care way too much about how things look
00:22:56I wasn't gonna let your birthday be embarrassing
00:22:58There it is
00:22:59Same old Aurora
00:23:00Talks big and still ends up spending money on me
00:23:02Some things never change
00:23:04That's more like it
00:23:05All right everyone
00:23:06Let's go
00:23:12Okay what are you up to?
00:23:14Think of it as my thank you for stepping in back there
00:23:17You're about to watch something really good
00:23:19I just need you to go along with it
00:23:20Yeah all right
00:23:21I'm in
00:23:23He's totally getting this one
00:23:32Julian come on
00:23:34That bottle alone must be worth thousands
00:23:36This room is actually unreal
00:23:39This is what it looks like when you actually own the place
00:23:41Order whatever you want
00:23:43Tonight's on me
00:23:46Julian you're the best
00:23:52Whatever you want it's yours
00:23:56Look at you loving every second of this
00:23:58When 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?
00:24:07He's not nobody
00:24:08Right?
00:24:09There's something about him
00:24:10Aurora brought some guy to make me jealous
00:24:12Please
00:24:14I can barely look at her as it is
00:24:16Just so you know
00:24:17This 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
00:24:28Consider it a treat for the strain
00:24:30She's not wrong
00:24:31I ordered more than enough
00:24:32Help yourself
00:24:33The guy you brought though
00:24:35He's not included
00:24:36Oh so I'm not paying?
00:24:38That's great
00:24:41Mr. Cross
00:24:41Here's tonight's bill
00:24:43We'd like to settle it now if you don't mind
00:24:46Hang on
00:24:47Isn't this Julian's hotel?
00:24:49Why is the hotel charging its owner?
00:24:55Wasn't the room already taken care of?
00:24:57Owner's orders
00:24:57Whoever buys, pays
00:25:00Excuse me?
00:25:01This is Julian's hotel
00:25:03You're seriously gonna charge him?
00:25:05He could have you fired right now
00:25:07Yeah, fire him!
00:25:09Miss, someone here seems to be trying to skip out on the bill
00:25:12and pass themselves off as the owner
00:25:15Wait, who is he talking to?
00:25:17The owner?
00:25:17Aurora?
00:25:18No way!
00:25:19This hotel is Julian's family's
00:25:21Everyone knows that!
00:25:24Funny how that works
00:25:26You book the fanciest room in the building
00:25:29Let everyone eat and drink whatever they want
00:25:32And somehow the bill ends up in front of me
00:25:38Aurora, come on just cover it and we move on
00:25:41Don't do this to me right now
00:25:45Not really my problem, is it?
00:25:48It's a stellar hotel
00:25:49That's your family's, right?
00:25:51It is
00:25:51Can I borrow it tonight?
00:25:53What are you planning?
00:25:54I'm going to act like I'm spending money on Julian
00:25:57But I won't actually pay
00:25:59When he's completely out of options, 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?
00:26:36Julian
00:26:38You're not actually going to
00:26:40I'm not going to 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
00:27:02Total, $8,600,000
00:27:07Happy birthday Julian
00:27:10I'll cover it this time
00:27:12But let's get one thing straight
00:27:14I'm not here to bankloat you and your girlfriend
00:27:17So he actually doesn't have money
00:27:18He'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
00:27:31Aurora, nobody has ever made me feel like this
00:27:34You're going to pay for tonight
00:27:35Every single bit of it
00:27:37Oh Julian, we're just getting started
00:27:42Keep the frequency steady
00:27:44Don't force it with emotion
00:27:45Use your focus to control it
00:27:47Stop, that's not working
00:27:49I'm giving it everything I've got
00:27:50Your power's not the issue
00:27:51Your 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 Hale, 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
00:28:32I'm drowning in debt and you know it
00:28:34Just say sorry
00:28:35Get 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 now
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
00:29:23That'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
00:29:35For real
00:29:36If 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?
00:29:55What, 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
00:30:03It doesn't matter what you do
00:30:04I'm never going to have feelings for you
00:30:06You're stupid, fake, and you lie constantly
00:30:10You're not even in the same league as Serena
00:30:12Right? You showed up last night with some random guy
00:30:15Now 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?
00:30:23She'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
00:30:30Aurora, you think money gives you the right to do whatever you want of people?
00:30:33And all that stuff about supporting me?
00:30:36That was a coaching fee you already owed!
00:30:38A coaching fee? Really?
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
00:30:50You 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
00:31:25If 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
00:31:47Is she serious?
00:31:48She's going up against Julian on an ability assessment?
00:31:51800?
00:31:52She barely scrapes 400 on a good day
00:31:55Sure
00:31:56You're on
00:31:56Last time around, I couldn't even do basic energy control
00:31:59I wore Julian's collar and never made it anywhere near a battlefield
00:32:12This time I'm going to train until I'm strong enough to protect the people I love
00:32:23Aurora
00:32:26Dad, what are you doing here?
00:32:28Had some business at the school, 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
00:32:36Okay, what's going on with you today?
00:32:38Nothing
00:32:39All right
00:32:40All right, all right
00:32:40Someone messed with you today?
00:32:42No
00:32:42I've just been thinking
00:32:44I'm done being at the bottom of the class
00:32:46I want to actually train
00:32:47Get my ability to where it should be
00:32:49Yeah?
00:32:50You mean that?
00:32:54That's what I'm talking about
00:32:56That'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?
00:33:15I've been wondering where all her money comes from
00:33:17Guess that answers it
00:33:18She's got a sugar daddy
00:33:20That explains why Julian was never into her
00:33:27I made a bet with Julian
00:33:28Score 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
00:33:47He'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
00:33:56Let's get to work
00:34:04Again
00:34:06Again
00:34:10Again
00:34:17Yes, that's it
00:34:18Okay, we're moving to the next stage
00:34:20God, 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
00:34:37Easy
00:34:38Easy
00:34:38You've got it
00:34:43There it is
00:34:47Take them all out
00:34:59Okay
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
00:35:39Couldn't have gotten here without you
00:35:40I was deliberately suppressing it
00:35:56Finally 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
00:36:08You seem really sure about that
00:36:10Admit it, Aurora
00:36:11This is just another way for you to get my attention
00:36:14And you know it
00:36:15Your attention
00:36:17Right
00:36:17Actually
00:36:18That reminds me of something
00:36:27Take all of this with you too
00:36:29I don't want any of it
00:36:30I told you
00:36:31Blue sapphire pieces are for stabilizing your ability
00:36:35Surprise
00:36:36I ran a restoration technique on them
00:36:38Every single one is Nudstone
00:36:39All those times you call 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
00:36:49It 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
00:36:59Was that clear enough?
00:37:03Next up is the port coordination test
00:37:05The rules are simple
00:37:06Within the time limit
00:37:07Help the workers move your assigned containers
00:37:09From the ship to the target zone
00:37:10Quantity, speed, and placement stability
00:37:13All count towards your score
00:37:21Now this is a test worth showing up for
00:37:32That's insane!
00:37:34That's Chloe for you
00:37:55What is she doing?
00:37:56She hasn't moved a single one
00:37:59What?
00:38:00Already lost control?
00:38:01Called it
00:38:02She's the same as always
00:38:04Showing up to embarrass herself in front of everyone
00:38:06Honestly, kind of sad
00:38:14You look completely lost
00:38:16Let me help
00:38:25You 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
00:38:49She's going to beat me
00:38:51I am not losing to you
00:38:54I am not losing to you
00:39:03Chloe Maser, complete
00:39:05See that?
00:39:06Done!
00:39:07You can stop with the theatrics
00:39:16Who said you could touch my containers?
00:39:18Idiot
00:39:20That 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 hail
00:39:40Complete
00:39:40Zero error
00:39:41Zero risk
00:39:42Hyatt 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
00:39:57That's not possible
00:39:58How did she just
00:39:59Well?
00:40:00Isn't this what you like?
00:40:02Watching me mess up?
00:40:10Settle down
00:40:11The combined results for all ability assessments are in
00:40:14Third place overall
00:40:16Serena Vale
00:40:17Serena only third?
00:40:19Then who's second?
00:40:20Second place
00:40:22Julian Cross
00:40:24How? Julian's always first
00:40:26I'm not finished
00:40:28First place overall
00:40:33Aurora hail
00:40:35Composite grade A percent
00:40:38What?
00:40:40Aurora is first?
00:40:42She actually got an A plus
00:40:46Catch that?
00:40:48A plus
00:40:49Top of the class
00:40:55I won
00:40:56Julian
00:40:57A bet's a bet
00:40:58Bra, skirt, energy restraint rings
00:41:01Ten laps around the school
00:41:04Aurora
00:41:04Aurora don'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
00:41:14Don't tell me you can't take a loss
00:41:17Aurora
00:41:17We're all classmates
00:41:19Do you have to take it this far?
00:41:21If you feel so bad for him
00:41:22Feel 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
00:41:28And 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
00:41:35Teacher
00:41:36Aurora's improvement is too dramatic
00:41:38I'm requesting she be examined
00:41:39Do you have evidence?
00:41:41If not, shut your mouth
00:41:43Otherwise I'll file a defamation complaint
00:41:46And you know what that means
00:41:47A 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
00:41:59What's she afraid of?
00:42:01Fine
00:42:02You want to 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
00:42:19Everyone 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
00:42:30In the interest of fairness
00:42:31Aurora and Chloe both come with me to the examination room
00:42:34Everyone else stays here
00:42:37Now this is going to be interesting
00:42:40Aurora
00:42:41Chloe
00:42:42Step up one at a time
00:42:47Aurora
00:42:48Clean
00:42:51Chloe
00:42:51You seem nervous
00:42:59An energy transfer device
00:43:01That's not mine!
00:43:02I don't know how it got there!
00:43:04Oh really?
00:43:05It grew legs and crawled there on its own?
00:43:07During the test, someone used this to temporarily transfer energy to you, helping you complete the assessment
00:43:13Isn'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?
00:43:35It was Chloe?
00:43:36Nullified? Can 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?
00:43:48Given that a cheat device was involved during the test in the interest of fully settling this dispute,
00:43:53Aurora, are you 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, so 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
00:45:07Like 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
00:45:33Her performance speaks for itself
00:45:35No cheating involved
00:45:40Now, should we talk about our bet?
00:45:47Retest is done
00:45:48I 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?
00:45:56You'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!
00:46:13Aurora, enough!
00:46:14Julian is still-
00:46:15Oh, right
00:46:16You too
00:46:17The teacher gave you a chance to make things right
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
00:46:40You want to make it easier on him, don't you?
00:46:44Go
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
00:47:21I don't know
00:47:22Feeling any better?
00:47:23Aurora
00:47:25We can't let her get away with this
00:47:27She's always running around with that older man from outside school, right?
00:47:31A young girl suddenly hang around some older guy, suddenly flush with money
00:47:36We all know what that means
00:47:39You mean?
00:47:41All 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?
00:48:17Why aren't you in the training room?
00:48:19Training's on hold tonight
00:48:21On hold?
00:48:22Because tonight
00:48:24I'm celebrating your birthday
00:48:26How did you know?
00:48:34That's
00:48:41Leo, isn't it?
00:48:43Beautiful
00:48:44And perfect control
00:48:48You can actually do this now
00:48:51Congratulations, I mean it
00:48:53Congratulations
00:48:54This is the best gift I've ever received
00:48:59Then I need you to promise me something
00:49:02Anything
00:49:03Tomorrow all our classmates are going to the beach
00:49:07Will you come?
00:49:23I got another one
00:49:25Got another one!
00:49:26Aurora?
00:49:27Why is it always her?
00:49:30Don't lose your nerve
00:49:31Win it back
00:49:38Her ability is so unfair!
00:49:40Just a harmless little current
00:49:41It won't hurt you
00:49:42Feel free to use your light whip if you want
00:49:46Again!
00:49:50Put away that useless whip
00:49:51You 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!
00:50:22You okay?
00:50:29Who is he?
00:50:30He's gorgeous
00:50:32This scene
00:50:32I can barely breathe
00:50:37I'm fine
00:50:40Let me handle him
00:50:48He's unreal
00:50:49How does Aurora know?
00:50:51Someone like him
00:51:03How is anyone supposed to return that?
00:51:14That easy?
00:51:25He returned all of them?
00:51:27How is that possible?
00:51:30Julian's speed looks like child's play next to him
00:51:42His rhythm is breaking down
00:51:46Opening on the left
00:51:54What?
00:52:08They won?
00:52:10That was brutal
00:52:12You 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
00:52:29You won it because of a man
00:52:31Didn'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
00:53:00And 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
00:53:07We were just reminding her, as friends
00:53:11Your idea of reminding her is spreading filthy lies about her?
00:53:14But isn't she the one chasing you?
00:53:17The more you know about her situation, the better
00:53:20Let me clarify
00:53:21Aurora 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
00:53:36Yes, you can pursue me
00:53:38Aurora, done 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, I'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
00:54:00You're not even worth the dog shit on the ground
00:54:03Aurora!
00:54:04Who exactly do you think you are?
00:54:05That the world revolves around you?
00:54:07You're with Serena
00:54:09And you're standing right next to her saying this
00:54:11You don't even find that embarrassing?
00:54:12I feel bad for her
00:54:14Is your forgiveness supposed to be worth something?
00:54:17Keep it for yourself
00:54:18Fine, very 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
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, I 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, we've been playing for hours
00:55:00You must be hungry
00:55:00Tonight, whatever you want, my treat
00:55:02Really?
00:55:04Of course, go ahead
00:55:07I'll have the lobster pasta, the charcoal grilled wagyu
00:55:11A dozen oysters, truffle fries, and a sea salt caramel souffle
00:55:15Best champagne you have, thank you
00:55:18Somebody's ordering big
00:55:20Which rich kid is this?
00:55:32Check please
00:55:39Payment decline insufficient funds
00:55:42Try again
00:55:43Payment decline insufficient funds
00:55:45You 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, so I moved it
00:55:58Did you gamble it away again?
00:55:59Shut your mouth, you don't get to lecture me
00:56:01By 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, you'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
00:56:19You 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?
00:56:38What are you saying?
00:56:39It's very simple
00:56:39What you need to do right now is go to Aurora and ask her to hire you back as her
00:56:44coach
00:56:46I finally got free of that woman
00:56:47I just want to be with you now and you're telling me to go back and work for her?
00:56:50I'm thinking about you
00:56:52What you need most right now is money
00:56:54Coaching 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 not 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?
00:57:15All right, I'm just looking out for you
00:57:17If you're too embarrassed to ask her yourself, I'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?
00:57:36Yes, it's always been true
00:57:39Aurora, I need to ask you something
00:57:43What is it?
00:57:44Could you
00:57:45Let Julian continue as your ability coach?
00:57:48Seriously?
00:57:49You interrupted my evening for this?
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 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 and effectively support both
00:58:07of 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
00:58:16I 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
00:58:36You'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 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
00:59:08And without a better future
00:59:09How could he keep spending money on you?
00:59:11Aurora, 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
00:59:28Keep your charity
00:59:30I don't collect garbage
00:59:32Aurora, enough
00:59:34Stop going after Serena
01:00:04You got sold out and you're still counting the money for them
01:00:06Having some random guy to make me jealous is going to change anything
01:00:08Aurora, ignore him
01:00:11Let's go
01:00:14Julian doesn't have much use left
01:00:16But Leon
01:00:17I need to find a way to push Aurora and Julian back together
01:00:20That would give me a way to get close to Leon
01:00:24Better coach
01:00:26Better boyfriend
01:00:28What, any 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
01:00:42Combined combat, precision control, sustained output and environmental takeover
01:00:46At this year's graduation ceremony
01:00:48You'll stand on that stage as the student representative
01:00:51Everyone who ever called you a failure
01:00:52Will have to look up at you
01:00:54In my past life I was useless in the war
01:00:57I died with the name of a failure
01:00:58While 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
01:01:11I'm going to surpass Julian and Serena
01:01:13You will
01:01:14One more thing
01:01:15Stay away from Julian
01:01:17I looked into his family background
01:01:18His father was a former gang member
01:01:20Alcoholic, compulsive gambler
01:01:21I know
01:01:22I already know all of it
01:01:24Julian
01:01:25Carl
01:01:26You won't get a dime out of me this time
01:01:32You actually came back?
01:01:34You stole from me again
01:01:37Stole?
01:01:37You're going to hold a little money against your own father?
01:01:40That was my tuition for next see my sister
01:01:42Tuition?
01:01:43When you were living at the Hale estate
01:01:44You never once asked me for tuition money
01:01:47When you were with Aurora
01:01:48You were bringing home cash hand over win
01:01:50You remember how we lived?
01:01:52And now you screwed it all up
01:01:55Shut up
01:01:56You shut up!
01:01:57A brainless heiress like Aurora
01:01:59You should have had her completely wrapped around your finger
01:02:01And 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
01:02:09No
01:02:11You're going whether you want to or not
01:02:13Otherwise I 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!
01:02:59I don't have a cent!
01:03:01Who's crazy about my son?
01:03:01Her father is Victor Hall
01:03:02Three million, five million
01:03:03It's nothing to her
01:03:04Is that right?
01:03:05If my son is in trouble
01:03:06She'll pay
01:03:06She always does
01:03:07Fine
01:03:08Tomorrow at noon
01:03:09If I don't see three million
01:03:10I kill your son
01:03:12Miss Hale!
01:03:13Save Julian!
01:03:14He's been taken!
01:03:14The kidnappers want three million!
01:03:16Kidnappers?
01:03:17Then call the police
01:03:17What are you coming to me for?
01:03:19We can't call the police!
01:03:20They'll kill him!
01:03:21Miss Hale, I'm begging you
01:03:22Please save him!
01:03:24Whether he lives or dies
01:03:25What does that have to do with me?
01:03:26Miss Hale, you're just angry at him
01:03:28When he comes back
01:03:29I'll have him on his knees
01:03:30Begging 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
01:03:36Missing an arm or a leg
01:03:37That might actually be fun
01:03:39He's your son, not mine
01:03:40The Hale family bullies their employees
01:03:44You leave people to die
01:03:46My son and I gave years of our lives to this family
01:03:49And this is how you treat them?
01:03:52If you don't agree today
01:03:53I'm staying here until I die
01:03:57Fine, I'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
01:04:04They want three million
01:04:06And the young miss won't help
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
01:04:14Take the ransom money to them yourself
01:04:16His life is in your hands now
01:04:18How you let off steam is entirely up to you
01:04:20Understood, Dad
01:04:25Miss, here he is
01:04:26Oh, you knocked him out?
01:04:28Oh, we had no way of knowing he was a friend of yours
01:04:29No, I meant
01:04:32You 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!
01:04:46Don't crack 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
01:04:59Aurora
01:05:01Help me
01:05:01What if you cripple him?
01:05:03What if you ruin his face?
01:05:04You're so cruel really stop
01:05:08How do I know you're actually trying to save him
01:05:10And not just stall him?
01:05:11Boys
01:05:12Wait for the money and keep hitting
01:05:13Let'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
01:05:21To one ten-thousandth of what I suffered in my past life
01:05:27Aurora
01:05:29You came for me?
01:05:31Of 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
01:05:37Julian
01:05:39Now you know who actually cares about you don't you?
01:05:41Everything before that was all my fault
01:05:43I swear from now on I'll treat you right
01:05:46Good
01:05:47Let me get someone to take you to the hospital first
01:05:52Aurora
01:05:53For you
01:05:54Your favorite hazelnut latte
01:05:55I went out of my way to get it
01:05:58Your memory is 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
01:06:04Weren't you into strong coffee lately?
01:06:08Aurora
01:06:09I made this for you myself
01:06:14Wow
01:06:14That's a full spread
01:06:16That's incredible
01:06:18Now this is something, Leon
01:06:21Thank you
01:06:21Aurora, are you messing with me?
01:06:28You do realize drinking coffee on an empty stomach
01:06:31Is hard on Aurora's stomach, right?
01:06:35Aurora
01:06:38What exactly is going on between you and Leon?
01:06:41Are you already together?
01:06:42Let go, you're hurting me
01:06:44Stop acting
01:06:45I can see it
01:06:46Every time you look at him
01:06:47Your eyes are different
01:06:48You never looked at me that way
01:06:50Does that hurt?
01:06:52I've been there a thousand times worse
01:06:54I gave you everything
01:06:56And you stepped on me and played me for a fool
01:06:59Aurora
01:07:01What's gotten into you?
01:07:02When did I ever deceive you?
01:07:04Stop performing
01:07:06Okay
01:07:06I admit there was something between Serena and me before
01:07:09But since I cleared the air with you
01:07:11I've been serious
01:07:13Why can't you just
01:07:14Get off me!
01:07:16You still care about me
01:07:18I know you do
01:07:22Didn'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 going to string you along a bit longer
01:07:35Let you find out what it's like to pour your heart out to someone who treats it like garbage
01:07:39But who the hell do you think you are speaking to Leon like that?
01:07:42Stay away from me from now on
01:07:43Come near me one more time and I'll make you look a lot worse than today
01:07:51Sorry, I almost failed to protect you
01:07:54It wasn't your fault
01:07:56I was the one who was too naive before
01:07:58At least this time I didn't let him get what he wanted
01:08:01Aurora
01:08:03Did he hurt you like this before in the past?
01:08:07I once had a dream
01:08:09In the dream I couldn't see someone's true face no matter how hard I tried
01:08:12I gave him everything I had and in the end he got me killed
01:08:15That person was Julian?
01:08:16I regretted it I couldn't accept it but the dream ended I woke up
01:08:25Was I in your dream?
01:08:30Yes at the very end of the dream you appeared and after that everything was better
01:08:35Once the graduation ceremony is over I'll tell you the rest of the story
01:08:39Good I'll wait
01:08:42Oh
01:08:43You've been confirmed as this year's student representative for the graduation ceremony
01:08:48After the ceremony I have something for you
01:08:50Thank you in advance
01:08:52Everything I've achieved that's all down to my coach
01:09:05My darling girl
01:09:07Don't be nervous tonight
01:09:08Dad can't wait to hear your speech
01:09:11Don't worry, I won't disappoint you
01:09:15Go on in
01:09:16You took my spot as student representative and 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
01:09:39To let mutants and humans grow together under the same sky and flourish 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
01:11:05No need
01:11:07I'd like to see how this plays out
01:11:13This is the man you're calling my keeper?
01:11:16The evidence is right there, are you going to deny it?
01:11:19You're not wrong, he is someone I love
01:11:27Though at the moment he can only rank second among the men I love
01:11:32You're actually admitting it?
01:11:34Aurora, you've got absolutely no shame when it comes to money
01:11:37You actually like some old bald man?
01:11:40I said I love him, is there a problem with that?
01:11:43Are we not allowed to tell the truth now?
01:11:46Aurora, you have absolutely no shame
01:11:49Every school board member is here tonight
01:11:51You're saying this in front of the entire school
01:11:53Do you feel no embarrassment whatsoever?
01:11:55Someone like her should be expelled
01:11:57Exactly, expeller
01:11:58Student representative, her?
01:11:59Julian, you know her better than anyone
01:12:00Tell us, is she being kept or not?
01:12:02Right, you were her coach, you must know
01:12:03Julian, I'm giving you one last chance
01:12:08You tell everyone
01:12:09What is the relationship between me and the man in that photo?
01:12:16The person in the photo is
01:12:18No, if I say it, what happens to Serena?
01:12:22This photo is beyond appropriate
01:12:24Aurora, if you apologize right now
01:12:27You can still walk away with some dignity
01:12:30Julian, you really haven't changed at all
01:12:32Still love turning everything on its head
01:12:35Aurora, don't change the subject
01:12:36You're the one changing the subject, fine
01:12:38Since you want to burn it all down in front of the whole school
01:12:40I'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
01:12:50Did you actually start believing it?
01:12:52What?
01:12:52Julian's money was all from Aurora?
01:12:54Aurora? He's not Victor Hale's chosen heir?
01:12:56She's lying!
01:12:57Shut up, Chloe
01:12:58See Julian for what he really is
01:13:00He's nothing but a coach who wormed his way into the Hale estate and stole my identity to lord it
01:13:04over all of you
01:13:07Quiet! Everyone quiet!
01:13:10Enough!
01:13:13Victor Hale?
01:13:14The war hero?
01:13:15Doesn't he never appear in public?
01:13:17I am disappointed
01:13:19Since this school was founded I have emphasized only one thing
01:13:21Peace
01:13:22Peace is not words
01:13:24It is not applause in an auditorium while saying mutual prosperity
01:13:28Peace begins with the most basic respect
01:13:30Respect for other people
01:13:31Respect for the truth
01:13:32Didn't you all just spell it out clearly?
01:13:34Anyone with no morals
01:13:36Anyone who harms fellow students
01:13:38Anyone who corrupts this school's culture should be expelled
01:13:42So let's follow your own rule
01:13:44Aurora, what are you still standing there for?
01:13:47Go pack your things and get out of this school
01:13:49You misunderstood
01:13:54No 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?
01:14:06Oh my god
01:14:06Serena and the others are finished
01:14:08Oh 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
01:14:27Effective immediately
01:14:29I didn't mean to
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
01:14:45Stay away from Aurora from now on
01:14:48By the way, my daughter is not involved with anyone other than her fiancé, Mr. Hart
01:14:52I heard that the position of my daughter's most loved man
01:14:56You 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
01:15:05But I think now is the right moment
01:15:08Once I was a step too late
01:15:11That won't happen again
01:15:12Aurora, Hale, will you marry me?
01:15:16Leon, in my past life, if I could do it all over again, I'd choose you
01:15:20I would
01:15:21In my past life, I didn't know who truly loved me until the moment I died
01:15:26This time, I will not miss it
01:15:28I do
01:15:36Future son-in-law, I'll let you pass for now
01:15:39Don't you dare let my daughter suffer
01:15:41I promise
01:15:41Future son-in-law, I'll let you pass for now
01:15:54I promise
