00:00:17Dad.
00:00:26Julian!
00:00:28I knew you'd come.
00:00:30The humans started a war. My whole family is gone.
00:00:38Yeah, I know. I'm the one who started it, and I'm the one who had your family killed.
00:00:44You're a mutant, too. Why would you do this to us?
00:00:48God, you're stupid. I'm standing on the winning side. It's not that complicated.
00:00:53Wow. You said you'd marry me. You gave me this. You said it meant something.
00:00:58I've followed him around like a lost puppy for years.
00:01:02If you hadn't put on that ability suppressor just to impress him, your electric power might have actually been able
00:01:08to save someone.
00:01:09My ability is S-Class. Then this collar.
00:01:13You said the blue stone would help me control my power.
00:01:16That's not an energy stone. It's null stone, made specifically to shut abilities down.
00:01:22Every single day, it's been draining you, destroying you from the inside.
00:01:28You lied to me!
00:01:48S-Class doesn't matter when you're collared.
00:01:51Every time you push your power, it floods your system with noxious resonates.
00:01:55So from day one, there was never any love there, was 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.
00:02:10You had this coming.
00:02:34Aurora!
00:02:35Sarah!
00:02:37No.
00:02:42Leon.
00:02:46I was too late.
00:02:48I'm sorry.
00:02:51I'm so sorry.
00:03:26No.
00:03:31Stop.
00:03:34You're wasting your energy.
00:03:36There's nothing left to do.
00:03:39But if you're gone,
00:03:41what's any of this even for?
00:03:44Don't.
00:03:46You're the strongest blood ability user alive.
00:03:50You have to keep going.
00:03:52Our people still need you to fight.
00:03:56Aurora,
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
00:04:17there.
00:04:19Quietly, awkwardly there.
00:04:22And I threw that away,
00:04:23chasing someone who never gave a damn about me.
00:04:27I wasted everything.
00:04:30My whole life.
00:04:31I was so blind.
00:04:35You were right there,
00:04:36and I couldn't see it.
00:04:38And now it's too late.
00:04:46Leon.
00:04:48Before I go,
00:04:50do one last thing for me.
00:04:52Take off this collar.
00:04:54I don't want to die wearing it.
00:04:57Okay.
00:05:06Leon.
00:05:08If I could do it all over again,
00:05:10I'd choose you.
00:05:14I really would.
00:05:18No!
00:05:19No!
00:05:21No!
00:05:24God, you're stupid.
00:05:25Bloods your system with noxious resonance.
00:05:27I'm the one who had your family filled.
00:05:28Aurora!
00:05:32I'm...
00:05:33I'm alive?
00:05:35No wounds.
00:05:37No collar.
00:05:40No collar.
00:05:43Which means...
00:05:45This is before Julian gave me the collar?
00:05:48This is...
00:05:49Seventh year practical ops class?
00:05:52I can still fix this.
00:05:54I can change everything.
00:06:02The blue stone gives basic suppression of the host's energy.
00:06:05The green stone is different.
00:06:07It actively feeds on the host's energy
00:06:08and releases harmful radiation.
00:06:10Long-term exposure causes irreversible damage.
00:06:13It's not an energy stone.
00:06:14It's null stone.
00:06:16Now, I'd like a student to come up and demonstrate.
00:06:22Aurora.
00:06:23You.
00:06:27Isn't she the worst student in the class?
00:06:30Great.
00:06:31Here we go again.
00:06:37Try not to fry it the second you touch it.
00:06:39I mean, if she actually pulls it off for once, I'll clap.
00:06:42I will.
00:06:47Now, 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.
00:07:15No surprise there.
00:07:18Don't stop.
00:07:19Try again.
00:07:28What?
00:07:29Waiting for me to come fix it for you?
00:07:35You're still on that?
00:07:37Every single day of those seven years was something I had to survive.
00:07:41If it weren't for your father's name,
00:07:45I wouldn't have given you a second look.
00:07:54What?
00:08:02Aurora.
00:08:03Pull 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
00:08:46Victor Hale is grooming him as successor. He's set to inherit the whole Hale estate. Aurora is just some servants
00:08:50kid Victor Hale's successor
00:08:52Heir 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
00:09:09Heir to the Hale family?
00:09:10You don't even know his last name. You know what you're exhausting. You're not riding back with us today
00:09:17She's different today. Something's off. You're not letting me ride with you. Julian. You've got it backwards
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
00:09:58How 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
00:10:09My son is your private coach. The Hale family's always been generous. Surely you wouldn't make your coach walk all
00:10:15the way home
00:10:17Everyone knows you're obsessed with my son. He snaps his fingers and you come running everything the Hale family has
00:10:24It's only a matter of time before it's ours
00:10:27It's only a matter of time before it's ours
00:10:30Aurora
00:10:33You're a servant's kid get out of the pilot seat now get down
00:10:38You think you belong up there?
00:10:40What you think you own it?
00:10:42Your airship?
00:10:45That'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
00:11:06Is 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? Julian why are you still being nice to her?
00:11:21Get down
00:11:25That's what you get
00:11:27She really thought she was gonna win that
00:11:34Come on. She's not worth it
00:11:40Good riddance
00:11:41Blocking the way like she owns the place
00:11:43Who does she think she is?
00:11:45Carl
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
00:11:58I'll say this once more
00:11:59If that airship leaves you're not gonna like what happens next
00:12:02You're really worked up today
00:12:04But once Julian comes back and says the right things you'll drop it
00:12:07You always do
00:12:12See that? That's how it's done
00:12:15It'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
00:12:29Effective immediately
00:12:30Sure, nice story
00:12:32Who's your dad? The principal?
00:12:34Is she about to say she owns the school too?
00:12:37You really think one phone call fixes this?
00:12:41Just watch
00:12:43Just watch
00:12:52What happened? You literally just left
00:12:54The academy forced a lockdown
00:12:57System override
00:13:01Carl Cross
00:13:01For unauthorized eye-shopping of private property
00:13:04You're terminated
00:13:05Effective immediately
00:13:07No, that's not
00:13:08There has to be a mistake
00:13:10You had no authority over that airship
00:13:12Get off me! I was doing my job!
00:13:15He actually got fired
00:13:16One call and she just
00:13:20I apologize that this happened on school grounds, Miss Hale
00:13:24Your airship's access been fully restored
00:13:28Aurora
00:13:28You've actually pissed me off this time
00:13:32Good
00:13:33Get used to it
00:13:38This is just the beginning
00:13:40Bye
00:13:41Lord Julian
00:13:58It's all still here
00:13:59We still have a chance to fix this
00:14:10Dad
00:14:12Dad
00:14:29Aurora!
00:14:33Without you
00:14:36None of it means anything to me
00:14:40Dad
00:14:41Leon
00:14:45Look at that
00:14:46You actually used his name
00:14:48Know that guy today?
00:14:50Aurora, you okay?
00:14:52I'm fine
00:14:54Hasn't seen her fiance in a while and she's already tearing up
00:14:57Very telling
00:14:58Dad, stop!
00:14:59And maybe
00:15:00Give us a little room?
00:15:03Oh, I see how it is
00:15:05How it is
00:15:05I'm being dismissed
00:15:11Leon
00:15:12Would you want to have dinner with me tonight?
00:15:14Just us?
00:15:17I...
00:15:20Yeah, absolutely
00:15:22Yeah, absolutely
00:15:22Of course
00:15:29You look nervous
00:15:30Sorry, I just didn't expect you to invite me like this out of nowhere
00:15:35Leon Hart gets nervous?
00:15:38You don't even blink on the battlefield
00:15:41You're way scarier than any battlefield
00:15:43Oh, that came out wrong
00:15:45No, it's fair
00:15:47I wasn't exactly nice to you before
00:15:50You're probably not used to this yet, are you?
00:15:54Well, you should get used to it
00:15:57Because I want you around more
00:15:59A lot more
00:16:06Starting with...
00:16:07Becoming my new coach
00:16:10Are you serious?
00:16:12I...
00:16:12Aurora, who is this?
00:16:15Why are you sitting with him?
00:16:16Oh, glad you asked
00:16:17This is Leon Hart, my new coach
00:16:20Strongest bloody ability user alive
00:16:22Pretty sure you've heard of him
00:16:23Aurora, new coach?
00:16:26I'm your coach
00:16:27If you let him anywhere near your training
00:16:30I'm gone
00:16:32Of course
00:16:33She's just using me to get to Julian
00:16:36Then go ahead
00:16:37I knew you'd... wait, what?
00:16:39I said I already have a new coach
00:16:43I don't need you anymore
00:16:44You can go
00:16:46You... what?
00:16:48You heard me
00:16:49Leave
00:16:53You heard her
00:16:53I'm her coach now
00:16:57Something is seriously wrong with her today
00:16:59I need to get this back under control
00:17:01Come on Aurora, I know you're mad about me and Serena
00:17:03But there's nothing going on
00:17:05We're just friends
00:17:06Sure
00:17:11I actually came tonight to give you something
00:17:14Open it
00:17:15Open it
00:17:21It'll help stabilize your ability long term
00:17:23And it's...
00:17:25I don't know, it means something
00:17:27To me
00:17:31Every single day
00:17:32Every single day it's been draining you
00:17:34Destroying you from the inside
00:17:41Nobody else is going to deal with your ability the way I do
00:17:45Here
00:17:45Let me put it on
00:17:47Don't
00:17:50Relax
00:17:51Back up
00:17:52She's not interested
00:17:54Relax, back up, she's not interested
00:18:17Take it off yourself
00:18:18That's not exactly a romantic gift
00:18:22Leon's got a point
00:18:23I'm not putting that on
00:18:25Not interested in being anyone's pet
00:18:27That's rich
00:18:28Coming from the girl who used to follow me around all day
00:18:30Kinda hard to take seriously
00:18:35Not yet
00:18:36Not yet
00:18:36Julian
00:18:37What you owe me goes way beyond just my life
00:18:40And I'm going to get every single piece of it back
00:18:47You actually came back?
00:18:49A servant's daughter kicks the owner off his own airship
00:18:52And just walks in like nothing happened?
00:18:54Aurora, do you seriously think you belong here?
00:18:57She got the academy to lock down the whole parking lot yesterday
00:19:00Over Julian's airship?
00:19:02That's actually insane
00:19:04Hold on
00:19:06Who did you just call a servant?
00:19:07You
00:19:08Everyone here knows it
00:19:10Julian is the heir Mr. Hale personally picked
00:19:12You're just one of the help
00:19:14Okay, so let's get something straight
00:19:15The real heir to the Hale estate is
00:19:22Yeah?
00:19:23Who?
00:19:24Chloe, shut up
00:19:28Perfect timing
00:19:30Why don't you go ahead and clear that up?
00:19:32Right now, in front of everyone
00:19:34Between the two of us
00:19:36Who'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
00:19:45Fine, I'm not in a rush to blow your cover today Julian
00:19:48There'll be plenty of opportunities
00:19:51I can't let people start questioning who I am
00:19:54I need to get them back on my side
00:19:59Actually, since everyone's here
00:20:01Actually, since everyone's here, I'm throwing a birthday party at the Stellar Hotel this weekend
00:20:04You're all invited
00:20:05The Stellar Hotel?
00:20:07That's like the most exclusive place in the whole city
00:20:09I heard you can't even get in the door for under a few hundred thousand
00:20:12Julian, that's insane, you can just casually book a place like that?
00:20:16I heard Julian actually owns the Stellar Hotel
00:20:18Of course he does, that's just how he operates
00:20:22I knew it
00:20:23Julian 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
00:20:35But since we're all here, let's celebrate
00:20:39Everyone's welcome
00:20:41It's on me
00:20:42He's covering everything?
00:20:44Seriously?
00:20:45This is why Mr. Hale picked him
00:20:47Makes total sense
00:20:48Last time around, I spent eight million on his birthday
00:20:51Made him look incredible
00:20:52Never got a thank you
00:20:54Not doing that again
00:21:01This is the place
00:21:03I spent a fortune throwing Julian a birthday party here
00:21:06And right when I was about to tell him how I felt
00:21:08He kissed Serena in front of me
00:21:10Julian, tonight I'm going to give you a birthday you actually won't forget
00:21:15You seriously showed up?
00:21:17Julian hasn't looked at you in days and you're just crashing his birthday like it's nothing?
00:21:22It'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?
00:21:29Neither of them has said anything, so what are you barking for?
00:21:34I thought you said you weren't coming
00:21:36Oh right, it's your birthday
00:21:37Honestly almost forgot until I ran into you just now
00:21:40What are you playing at?
00:21:42Is this about me not inviting you?
00:21:44Aurora, it's Julian's birthday
00:21:46Don't start something
00:21:47At the end of the day, you're just the daughter of his family's servant
00:21:50So, say that again
00:21:51Who do you think you are?
00:21:53A servant's daughter putting her hands on her
00:21:57You actually pushed me?
00:21:59I'll deal with you myself
00:22:02Stop!
00:22:10What do you think you're doing?
00:22:13Enough!
00:22:15It's my birthday, let's not make this a whole thing
00:22:19Aurora, I'm not going to hold any of this against you
00:22:22You said you'd come celebrate, right? Everyone's here
00:22:25Don't make me look bad
00:22:27So this party really matters to you
00:22:29If I tank your whole rich kid reputation tonight
00:22:32That'd hurt worse than anything else I could do, wouldn't it?
00:22:35Alright then, let's have some fun
00:22:39Right, okay, it's your birthday, you want everyone to have a good time
00:22:44I just remembered, I actually booked the best private room in the building for you
00:22:48The Platinum Suite, you can go in whenever you're ready
00:22:51You booked the Platinum Suite?
00:22:53Obviously, you care way too much about how things look
00:22:56I wasn't going to let your birthday be embarrassing
00:22:59There it is, same old Aurora, talks big and still ends up spending money on me
00:23:02Some things never change
00:23:04That's more like it
00:23:06Alright everyone, let's go
00:23:12Okay, what are you up to?
00:23:14Think of it as my thank you for stepping in back there
00:23:17You're about to watch something really good
00:23:19I just need you to go along with it
00:23:21Yeah, alright, I'm in
00:23:23He's totally getting his wine
00:23:32Julian, come on
00:23:34That bottle alone must be worth thousands
00:23:36This room is actually unreal
00:23:38This is what it looks like when you actually own the place
00:23:42Order whatever you want
00:23:44Tonight's on me
00:23:46Julian, you're the best
00:23:52Whatever you want, it's yours
00:23:56Look at you, loving every second of this
00:23:59When that bill hits the table, your face is going to be absolutely worth all of it
00:24:02If that guy hadn't showed up out of nowhere earlier
00:24:06Okay, but who even is he? He's not nobody
00:24:08Right? There's something about him
00:24:10Aurora brought some guy to make me jealous?
00:24:13Please, I can barely look at her as it is
00:24:16Just so you know, this one glass probably costs more than your mom makes in a year
00:24:20Wow, that much?
00:24:22Hope whoever's paying can actually cover it
00:24:24Oh please, Julian's got the tab
00:24:27Have whatever's left
00:24:28Consider it a treat for the stray
00:24:30She's not wrong, I ordered more than enough
00:24:33Help yourself
00:24:34The guy you brought though, he's not included
00:24:36Oh, so I'm not paying? That's great
00:24:41Mr. Cross, here's tonight's bill
00:24:43We'd like to settle it now if you don't mind
00:24:46Hang on, isn't this Julian's hotel?
00:24:49Why is the hotel charging its owner?
00:24:55Wasn't the room already taken care of?
00:24:57Owner's orders, whoever buys, pays
00:25:00Excuse me? This is Julian's hotel
00:25:03You're seriously gonna charge him?
00:25:06He could have you fired right now
00:25:08Yeah, fire him!
00:25:09Miss, someone here seems to be trying to skip out on the bill
00:25:12And pass themselves off as the owner
00:25:15Wait, who is he talking to?
00:25:17The owner? Aurora?
00:25:18No way! This hotel is Julian's family's
00:25:21Everyone knows that!
00:25:24Funny how that works
00:25:26You book the fanciest room in the building
00:25:29Let everyone eat and drink whatever they want
00:25:32And somehow the bill ends up in front of me?
00:25:38Aurora, come on, just cover it and we move on
00:25:41Don't do this to me right now
00:25:45Not really my problem, is it?
00:25:48The Stellar Hotel
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
00:26:01He'll have to come to me
00:26:04Okay, that's actually pretty good
00:26:07Here's an idea
00:26:08Everyone just splits it
00:26:10Pull it together, see what happens
00:26:15Wait, split it ourselves?
00:26:17Didn't Julian say he was covering everything?
00:26:18Aurora, stop messing around and just pay it
00:26:21You 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, you're not actually going to-
00:26:40Not gonna do it?
00:26:43Fine, Leon, let's head out
00:26:45Wait
00:26:48Please
00:26:56There we go
00:26:59Manager, I've got the bill
00:27:03Total, $8,600,000
00:27:08Happy birthday Julian
00:27:10I'll cover it this time
00:27:11But let's get one thing straight
00:27:14I'm not here to bankloat you and your girlfriend
00:27:16So he actually doesn't have money
00:27:19He's just been faking this whole time?
00:27:21One more chance
00:27:22In front of everyone
00:27:24Who's the owner and who's the servant?
00:27:26I'm done!
00:27:31Aurora, nobody has ever made me feel like this
00:27:34You're going to pay for tonight
00:27:36Every single bit of it
00:27:37Oh Julian, we're just getting started
00:27:42Keep the frequency steady
00:27:44Don't force it with a motion
00:27:45Use your focus to control it
00:27:47Stop, that's not working
00:27:49I'm giving it everything I've got
00:27:50Your power's not the issue, your control is
00:27:53Okay, one more time
00:27:56Miss Hale, you're finally back
00:27:57I've brought Julian today to apologize
00:27:59Looks like you've got something to handle
00:28:01We can pick this up tomorrow
00:28:02See ya
00:28:02Bye
00:28:06An apology, Carl?
00:28:08What exactly did he do that needs an apology?
00:28:11Miss 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
00:28:25You can't just cut me out like this
00:28:26Are you done?
00:28:28Then go
00:28:30What are you doing just standing there?
00:28:32Apologize to her!
00:28:33I'm drowning in debt and you know it
00:28:35Just say sorry
00:28:36Get her back on your side
00:28:37And everything the Hale family has will eventually be ours
00:28:40All of it
00:28:42Carl, you've been talking this whole time
00:28:44And your son hasn't said a word
00:28:46I'm not feeling a whole lot of sincerity here
00:28:50Apologize!
00:28:51Now!
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
00:29:19Aurora, you really covered Julian's whole tab last night?
00:29:22So all that money he throws around, that's been yours this whole time?
00:29:25We actually thought he was loaded
00:29:27Go ask him, not my story to tell
00:29:31Aurora, what about me?
00:29:33I'm way easier to deal with than Julian, I promise
00:29:36For real, if you could fund him, you could fund me
00:29:44Shut up!
00:29:45All of you
00:29:51Feeling good about yourself?
00:29:53You humiliated me in front of everyone, what, because I didn't pick you over Serena?
00:29:58The audacity to say that out loud
00:30:01Incredible
00:30:02Let me be straight with you Aurora, 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
00:30:15And now you want to act like you're the victim?
00:30:16Hang on!
00:30:18Julian's the one who couldn't pay his own bill last night
00:30:20Yeah, so why is he making this her fault?
00:30:23She's the one who made me invite everyone in the first place
00:30:25I didn't even want to go
00:30:27And then she turned around and made everyone look stupid
00:30:29Aurora, you think money gives you the right to do whatever you want of people?
00:30:34And all that stuff about supporting me?
00:30:36That was a coaching fee you already owed!
00:30:38A coaching fee?
00:30:40Really?
00:30:42Since the day you started, all you did was spend my money, tear me down, and drain my ability
00:30:48Tell me one actually useful thing you ever did
00:30:51You being bad at this has nothing to do with me
00:30:53Your 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
00:31:03You've got a new one
00:31:04Let's see what he can actually do
00:31:06What does that mean?
00:31:07Are they seriously making a bet right now?
00:31:09Stability assessment
00:31:12Score above 800
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?
00:31:20What more do you want?
00:31:21Julian's literally putting himself on the line here
00:31:24Fine
00:31:25If I win
00:31:27You put on a bra and a skirt
00:31:28Strap on energy restraint rings
00:31:30And run 10 laps around the school
00:31:32What more do you want?
00:31:34Julian's literally putting himself on the line here
00:31:36Fine
00:31:37If I win, you put on a bra and a skirt
00:31:40Strap on energy restraint rings
00:31:42And run 10 laps around the school
00:31:44And if I win?
00:31:45Same thing for me
00:31:46Is 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
00:31:55You're on
00:31:56Last time around I couldn't even do basic energy control
00:32:00I 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
00:32:31Last time, you died right in front of me and there was nothing I could do
00:32:34That's never happening again
00:32:36Okay, what's going on with you today?
00:32:38Nothing
00:32:40Alright, alright, someone messed with you today?
00:32:42No, I've just been thinking
00:32:45I'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?
00:32:55That's what I'm talking about, that's my girl
00:33:04Wait, who is that?
00:33:08That's just some old guy
00:33:11Why is he so friendly with Aurora?
00:33:14Seriously?
00:33:15I've been wondering where all her money comes from
00:33:17Guess that answers it?
00:33:18She's got a sugar daddy
00:33:21That explains why Julian was never into her
00:33:27I made a bet with Julian
00:33:29Score above 800 on the semester assessment
00:33:31Whoever loses has to wear restraint rings
00:33:33I'll get you there
00:33:34And honestly, your training's already showing, 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
00:33:45Your ability's been held back, that'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
00:33:58Let's get to work
00:34:04Again
00:34:06Again
00:34:11Again
00:34:11Again
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, just guide it
00:34:37Easy
00:34:37Easy, easy
00:34:38You've got it
00:34:44There it is
00:34:48Take 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 millstone
00:35:33You know, I've been thinking about it
00:35:35Why was your ability stuck so low for so long?
00:35:38It really feels like something was deliberately suppressing it
00:35:56Finally here to grab your stuff from the basement
00:35:59Make sure you get everything
00:36:01Feeling pretty good about this bet, huh?
00:36:03Aurora?
00:36:04You really think a new training partner is going to be enough?
00:36:06You're not going to hit 800
00:36:08You never will
00:36:09You seem really sure about that
00:36:11Admit it, Aurora
00:36:12This is just another way for you to get my attention and you know it
00:36:15Your attention
00:36:17Right, actually, that reminds me of something
00:36:27Take all of this with you two
00:36:29I don't want any of it
00:36:30I told you
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 called them stabilizers
00:36:41You were actually using them to drain me and keep me weak
00:36:44So I'd have no choice but to keep you around
00:36:46Right?
00:36:47That's why her ability was stuck this whole time
00:36:50It was you!
00:36:51Julian, that's fucked up!
00:36:55I don't know what you two are going on about
00:36:57Take your shit and get out
00:37:00Was that clear enough?
00:37:03Next up is the port coordination test
00:37:05The rules are simple
00:37:06Within the time limit, help the workers move your assigned containers from the ship to the target zone
00:37:11Quantity, 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
00:37:53That's insane!
00:37:54That's Chloe for you
00:37:55What is she doing? She hasn't moved a single one.
00:37:59What? Already lost control?
00:38:01Called it. She's the same as always.
00:38:04Showing up to embarrass herself in front of everyone?
00:38:07Honestly, kind of sad.
00:38:15You look completely lost. Let me help.
00:38:25She can't pull it?
00:38:27They're totally locked in place.
00:38:46She's moving the whole group at once?
00:38:48No. She's going to beat me.
00:38:52I am not losing to you!
00:39:03Chloe Maser. Complete.
00:39:05See that? Done!
00:39:07You can stop with the theatrics!
00:39:16Who said you could touch my containers?
00:39:19Idiot.
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.
00:39:28She's right!
00:39:29The alarm was already going off!
00:39:35No.
00:39:37That can't be right.
00:39:39Aurora Hale. Complete.
00:39:41Zero error. Zero risk.
00:39:42Hyatt grade.
00:39:45So, how'd that go for everyone?
00:39:49Aurora's score for the park coordination test is...
00:39:52Perfect!
00:39:53Who's building a grid this whole time?
00:39:56She had every single target locked from the start.
00:39:58That's not possible.
00:39:59How did she just...
00:39:59Well, isn't this what you like?
00:40:02Watching me mess up?
00:40:10Settle down.
00:40:12The combined results for all ability assessments are in.
00:40:15Third place overall, Serena Vale.
00:40:18Serena only third?
00:40:19Then who's second?
00:40:21Second place?
00:40:22Julian Cross.
00:40:24How?
00:40:25Julian's always first!
00:40:26I'm not finished.
00:40:28First place overall...
00:40:33Aurora Hale.
00:40:35Composite grade A 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.
00:40:57Julian.
00:40:58A bet's a bet.
00:40:59Bra.
00:41:00Skirt.
00:41:00Energy 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!
00:41:08You just got lucky once!
00:41:09Our bet was whether I could hit an A.
00:41:11I did.
00:41:12He lost.
00:41:13He owes a penalty.
00:41:14Lord Julian.
00:41:15Don'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,
00:41:23feel free to take the punishment in his place.
00:41:25You...
00:41:25You know what?
00:41:26I think you cheated.
00:41:27You used to be that bad,
00:41:29and lately you've been cozying up to that old man.
00:41:31When did you even have time to train?
00:41:32There's no way you improved that fast!
00:41:35Teacher,
00:41:37Aurora's improvement is too dramatic.
00:41:38I'm requesting she be examined.
00:41:40Do you have evidence?
00:41:41If not, shut your mouth.
00:41:43Otherwise, I'll file a defamation complaint,
00:41:45and you know what that means.
00:41:48A dead last student like you?
00:41:50Your old schools speak for themselves!
00:41:52You are getting examined today!
00:41:54Right!
00:41:55She must have a cheat device on her!
00:41:58Search her!
00:41:59If she didn't cheat,
00:42:00what's she afraid of?
00:42:01Fine.
00:42:02You want to check me?
00:42:03Go ahead.
00:42:04But then everyone who tested in the same session gets checked too.
00:42:07Especially 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?
00:42:16Fine.
00:42:16I agree to a search.
00:42:18But if there's a search,
00:42:19everyone who tested in the same session gets checked.
00:42:22Otherwise,
00:42:22how 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.
00:42:52You seem nervous.
00:42:59An energy transfer device.
00:43:01That's not mine!
00:43:03I don't know how it got there!
00:43:04Oh, really?
00:43:05It grew legs and crawled there on its own?
00:43:07During the test,
00:43:08someone used this
00:43:09to temporarily transfer energy to you,
00:43:12helping you complete the assessment.
00:43:14Isn't that right, Chloe?
00:43:15Looks like the real cheater
00:43:17isn't who everyone thought.
00:43:21That's an energy transfer device!
00:43:23So Aurora really did cheat!
00:43:25She'll do anything to win that bet!
00:43:28Quiet!
00:43:29Here's my ruling.
00:43:30The student who cheated
00:43:32was Chloe.
00:43:35What?!
00:43:35It was Chloe?!
00:43:36Nullified?!
00:43:37Can she even graduate?!
00:43:37Nullified?! Can she even graduate?!
00:43:37A formal demarriage will be issued
00:43:39and her test scores are nullified.
00:43:42If you breathe a word about me,
00:43:44you're done.
00:43:46Now,
00:43:46does anyone else want to accuse me of cheating?
00:43:49Given that a cheat device was involved
00:43:50during the test,
00:43:51in the interest of
00:43:52fully settling this dispute,
00:43:54Aurora,
00:43:54are you willing to retest?
00:43:55Absolutely.
00:43:56And let a certain someone lose
00:43:58without any excuses.
00:44:01The retest will be
00:44:02defensive stabilization.
00:44:03Each tester protects
00:44:05their own core sphere.
00:44:06Fewer hits on the core
00:44:07within the time limit
00:44:08means a higher score.
00:44:10Aurora, Serena,
00:44:11begin.
00:44:16That's Serena for you!
00:44:18So precise!
00:44:20So elegant!
00:44:26I told you!
00:44:28She has no idea
00:44:29what she's doing!
00:44:30She's always been good
00:44:31at one thing.
00:44:32Messing up.
00:44:40I'd quit now
00:44:41if I were you.
00:44:47I'd quit now
00:44:47if I were you.
00:44:54Serena,
00:44:55point deducted.
00:45:02Wait!
00:45:03All the trajectories
00:45:04have changed!
00:45:05They're all going in circles.
00:45:07Like they're locked
00:45:08onto an invisible track.
00:45:23Serena,
00:45:24point deducted.
00:45:25Serena,
00:45:26point deducted.
00:45:27How is this possible?
00:45:30The result of this test?
00:45:32Aurora wins.
00:45:34Her performance
00:45:35speaks for itself.
00:45:36No cheating involved.
00:45:41Now,
00:45:41should we talk
00:45:42about our bet?
00:45:48Retest is done.
00:45:49I didn't cheat.
00:45:50Time to settle the bet.
00:45:51It's just one test.
00:45:53Do you have to be
00:45:54this relentless about it?
00:45:55Relentless?
00:45:56You're the ones
00:45:57who accused me of cheating
00:45:57and then got caught
00:45:58cheating yourselves.
00:45:59And now you won't pay up?
00:46:01Julian,
00:46:02bra and skirt,
00:46:03energy restraint rings,
00:46:0515 burpees
00:46:05in front of the whole school,
00:46:06then 10 laps
00:46:07around the track.
00:46:08You apologize
00:46:09the entire time you run.
00:46:11In your dreams!
00:46:13Aurora, enough!
00:46:14Julian is still-
00:46:15Oh, right.
00:46:16You too.
00:46:17The teacher gave you
00:46:18a chance to make things right,
00:46:19but left your punishment
00:46:20up to me.
00:46:21You're joining Julian.
00:46:23No!
00:46:26Oh, Chloe.
00:46:28Since your loyalty
00:46:29to Julian is so deep,
00:46:31I'll allow it.
00:46:32You can run his 10 laps for him.
00:46:3410 laps?
00:46:35I'll die!
00:46:36Chloe, you're the one
00:46:37who started all of this.
00:46:38Julian got dragged into it
00:46:40trying to protect everyone.
00:46:41You want to make it easier
00:46:42on him, don't you?
00:46:43I-I-I...
00:46:44Go.
00:46:45Or I won't hesitate
00:46:46to expose every time
00:46:47I helped you cheat
00:46:48over the past few years.
00:46:52Don't try to use
00:46:53your ability.
00:46:54It'll only make it worse.
00:46:59She passed out!
00:47:00Get her to the nurse's office!
00:47:12Happy now?
00:47:14That look suits you, actually.
00:47:22Feeling any better?
00:47:24Aurora?
00:47:25We can't let her
00:47:26get away with this.
00:47:28She's always running around
00:47:29with that older man
00:47:29from outside school, right?
00:47:31A young girl suddenly
00:47:33hang around some older guy,
00:47:34suddenly flush with money.
00:47:37We all know what that means.
00:47:39You mean?
00:47:41All we need to do
00:47:42is find the right public moment
00:47:43to put it out there.
00:47:44It'll be quite the show.

00:53:08we were just reminding her
00:53:09as friends
00:53:11your idea of reminding her
00:53:12is spreading filthy lies about her?
00:53:14but isn't she the one chasing you?
00:53:17the more you know about her situation
00:53:19the better
00:53:20let me clarify

00:54:04who exactly do you think you are?
00:54:05that the world revolves around you?
00:54:07you're with Serena

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
00:54:36I was just annoyed at Aurora for being so full of herself
00:54:38I said it to get a reaction
00:54:39you're the one I want to be with
00:54:41I'm not giving her any opening
00:54:43I know
00:54:44I just feel a little
00:54:45beaten down
00:54:46she has that older man protecting her
00:54:48and now she has someone like Leon at her side
00:54:50no matter what I do
00:54:52I just can't measure up to her
00:54:54oh stop
00:54:54someone like Aurora doesn't compare to you

00:55:44insufficient funds
00:55:45can't pay and you ordered all that?
00:55:47from the way he was acting
00:55:48I actually thought he was somebody
00:55:50sir
00:55:50would you like to try a different payment method?
00:55:54dad
00:55:55what 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?
00:56:00shut your mouth
00:56:00you don't get to lecture me
00:56:02by the way
00:56:02you're on your own for next year's tuition
00:56:05so he's broke
00:56:06showing off like that
00:56:07and now no one's here to bail him out
00:56:09I see now
00:56:10you're not a rich heir at all
00:56:11the one with real money is Aurora
00:56:13you're just a broke loser
00:56:14she's been supporting
00:56:15Julian
00:56:17I'm suddenly not hungry anymore
00:56:19you finish up
00:56:21Serena
00:56:22let me explain
00:56:23the money was just temporarily moved by my dad
00:56:26I'll figure out a way to earn it back
00:56:28I swear I won't let you down
00:56:31Julian
00:56:31a whole month of part-time work
00:56:33probably pays less than one day
00:56:35as Aurora's private ability coach
00:56:37am I wrong?
00:56:38what are you saying?
00:56:39it's very simple
00:56:40what you need to do right now is
00:56:42go to Aurora
00:56:42and ask her to hire you back as her coach
00:56:46I finally got free of that woman
00:56:47I just want to be with you now
00:56:48and you're telling me to go back and work for her?
00:56:50I'm thinking
00:56:52about you
00:56:52what you need most right now
00:56:54is money
00:56:55coaching her
00:56:56pays more than any odd job
00:56:57you could pick up outside
00:56:58and your dad's debt
00:56:59that has to be handled first
00:57:00doesn't it?
00:57:02I don't want to do this
00:57:03what's the big deal?
00:57:04I'm just asking you to go earn money from her
00:57:06not to get back together
00:57:07we're with her
00:57:09you're broke
00:57:11if you don't earn something
00:57:12what exactly do I have to spend?
00:57:15all right
00:57:16I'm just looking out for you
00:57:18if you're too embarrassed to ask her yourself
00:57:20I'll go say it for you
00:57:22would she even
00:57:23take me back at this point?
00:57:25did you mean
00:57:26what you said earlier?
00:57:28which part?
00:57:31that you're the one
00:57:33pursuing me?
00:57:35yes
00:57:36it's always been true
00:57:39Aurora
00:57:40I need to ask you something
00:57:43what is it?
00:57:44could you
00:57:45let Julian
00:57:46continue as your ability coach?
00:57:48seriously?
00:57:50you interrupted my evening
00:57:51for
00:57:52this?
00:57:53Julian is really struggling right now
00:57:55you've probably heard about his father
00:57:56your family has plenty of money
00:57:58and Julian's ability is strong
00:57:59if you agree
00:58:00I promise he'll take the coaching seriously this time
00:58:03do you think I'm stupid?
00:58:04the two of you are together now
00:58:05and you want me to pay him a salary
00:58:06and effectively support both of you?
00:58:09Aurora
00:58:11I'm willing to forgive everything you've done
00:58:12from now on
00:58:13we keep it strictly professional
00:58:15coach and student
00:58:16that's all
00:58:18I remember someone just said
00:58:20he'd never forgive me
00:58:24Aurora
00:58:25if the only reason you're shutting Julian out
00:58:27is because of me and him
00:58:29I can break up with him
00:58:30please don't
00:58:32then he'll turn around
00:58:33and 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
00:58:46the school's heart throb
00:58:47everyone's chosen heir
00:58:49now that you've found out he's not rich at all
00:58:51his dad's a gambler buried in debt
00:58:53you've changed your mind
00:58:54you want to turn him into a money-making tool
00:58:58so you can slowly discard him
00:59:00and move on to someone with better prospects
00:59:02right?
00:59:03who gave you the right to say that?
00:59:05I just think Julian deserves a better future
00:59:07right?
00:59:08and without a better future
00:59:09how could he keep spending money on you?
00:59:12Aurora
00:59:12enough
00:59:13I've always believed women should support each other
00:59:15but you've been reading the worst possible intentions
00:59:17into everything I do
00:59:19hearing that from you is quite something
00:59:21isn't giving you a chance to get close to Julia
00:59:24a good thing?
00:59:25you love him
00:59:26after all
00:59:28keep your charity
00:59:30I don't collect garbage
00:59:33Aurora
00:59:33enough
00:59:35stop going after Serena
00:59:39you got sold out
00:59:40and you're still counting the money for them
00:59:42what did you say?
00:59:42Serena thinks you're broke
00:59:43thinks you're a burden
00:59:44thinks your dad is an embarrassment
00:59:46and she's putting on this whole act of self-sacrifice
00:59:48while pushing you back at me
00:59:50and you're still defending her?
00:59:51Julian
00:59:52you're a complete idiot
00:59:54Julian don't!
00:59:56Aurora and I just have a misunderstanding
00:59:58Julian
00:59:58I have a better coach now
01:00:00and a better boyfriend
01:00:01someone like you
01:00:02not a consideration
01:00:04Aurora
01:00:05don't think bringing some random guy to make me jealous is going to change anything
01:00:09Aurora
01:00:09ignore him
01:00:11let's go
01:00:15Julian doesn't have much use left
01:00:16but Leon
01:00:17I need to find a way to push Aurora and Julian back together
01:00:20that would give me a way to get close to Leon
01:00:24better coach
01:00:26better boyfriend
01:00:28hmm?
01:00:29what?
01:00:29any objections?
01:00:31I think
01:00:31I need to earn those words
01:00:36from here on
01:00:37I'm training you to be number one in the year
01:00:39I want you to surpass Julia and Serena in all four areas
01:00:42combined combat
01:00:44precision control
01:00:44sustained output
01:00:45and environmental takeover
