Today on Feast Day, we celebrate life.

Tomorrow, on Monument Day, we remember what we lost, who we lost, how we got here, and who got us here, because for nearly all of us, that came at a cost.

But we should be the monument we want to be, regardless of the past.

That's what you all should be writing about.

What kind of monument are you going to be, Elton?

I would like to be complete and aware and kind.

I don't want to be afraid ever again, but I know I probably will be.

Dad gave you guardianship while he's gone.

HOPE: [GROANS] Felix is the worst guardian ever!

What was Dad even thinking?

IRIS: Checked the cabinet. Still nothing.

If he were here, he'd say, "Making that amount of alcohol shows a solid grasp of chemistry".

Let's get the hell out of here.

It's Hope and Iris Bennett, right?

Lieutenant Colonel.

[CHUCKLES] Call me Elizabeth.

You know who we are?

Of course. I recognized you earlier.

I just didn't want to say anything in front of everyone.

I wanted to thank you both for your sacrifice on behalf of the Civic Republic.

Being away from your father for months on end can't be easy.

But as I'm sure you know, this first science exchange is critical for the Alliance for the future of the planet.

But I can see you know that.

I do.

And I've heard you're pursuing biochemistry and immunology?

I should thank you for that, too.

Are they about Dad?

Yeah. Because we don't talk about stuff like that, not what went on, not what goes on.

Here's what just happened.
