GUARD: Freeze!

I'm not the one you need to worry about.

CLEO: Sun baiyi.

(GUARD GRUNTS)

Thanks. So, where is it?

Give me a moment to look.

You know, it still kind of blows my mind

that you knew Leonardo da Vinci.

Biblically.

Hmm. I loved him very much.

When we met, he was not a legend.
Merely a starving artist.

Who you inspired to greatness.

Kind of sucks that he got
all the credit. Right?

Such is history.

Many who shape it are never acknowledged
for their achievements.

Hmm. Case in point.

This is what we came for.

GUARD : Halt!

Two intruders in the Da Vinci exhibit.

♪ Pushed into your black parade ♪

♪ You're a nightmare ♪

♪ 'Cause you're not
what you said you are... ♪

- (GRUNTING)
- Landon!

Such v*olence is not necessary.

- That's pretty ironic, coming from you.
- (SCOFFS)

Now will you tell me how you know
that can help us defeat Malivore?

♪ 'Cause you're not what you really ♪

Because I made it.

♪ Are, no ♪

♪ Oh, no ♪

♪ Yeah ♪


Still as handsome as ever.

Oh, admit it.

You totally missed me.

I'm not going to dignify that
with an answer.

I will, however,
indignify it with a question.

How are you even here?

Long story short, uh,
someone chopped off my head.

Woke up in the blackness,
endless loneliness, suffering,

existential agony, blah blah blah.

And then an industrious Triad witch

brought me back to the here and now.

Where you've obviously made no progress
in k*lling Malivore.

We did manage to lock him
in a prison world.

Well, there's no prison
that will contain my father.

You know it.

Is he still sending monsters?

A couple.

Jo, stop giving him information.

That goes for you, too.

Then he's up to something.

But lucky for us, I have a plan.

What kind of plan?

Not interested. Ad somnum.

- Lizzie...
- Don't. Okay?

Have you completely forgotten
that Clarke once faked being Vardemus,

turned Josie evil,
and then tried to hijack your body?

Not to mention
a zillion other shady things.

We are not trusting him.

Fine, then what's your plan?

Take him back to the school

and let the grown-ups
deal with something for once.

MG: So, do we have your permission?

- I don't know.
- (SIGHS)

Cleo made it pretty clear
when she left the school,

she wasn't interested in being found.

Yeah, so did MG, but you got him back.

And now he and I are good.

And in that same spirit
of open communication,

there's just some...
stuff I got to get off my chest

that I didn't get a chance to
before Cleo took off.

MG: And continuing in that same spirit,

we were hoping that you'd want
to help us find her

so we didn't just find a witch
to do the spell behind your back.

Well, I do appreciate you coming to me.

And as a matter of fact...

Last night two thieves
broke into a museum in Alexandria

and stole a sculpture on loan
from the Italian government.

When the guards on duty
attempted to subdue them,

one spontaneously fell asleep.

The other was violently assaulted

but not before he managed
to get a look...

at his assailants.

_
- What?

Why would Cleo rob a museum?

MG: And when'd she team up with Landon?

I don't know,

but that sculpture is from the studio
of Leonardo da Vinci.

Likely had something to do
with Cleo's past.

She won't have much of a future
if she keeps pulling B and Es.

My thoughts exactly.

Permission granted for our first
official superhero mission?

Cover up their tracks.

Figure out what they're up to.
Discreetly.

Discreet Dynamic Duo on the case.

Are you ready for this, old chum?

Yeah. To the Batmobile, yo.

- Yeah.
- Thanks.

LIZZIE: My blood sugar is crashing,
and my bladder is splashing.

I'm gonna go grab some snacks.
Anyone want to come with?

I will once the t*nk is full.

In the meantime, can you get me
a Razzleberry slush?

Only because genetics dictate
that I love you.

Hope?

Seeing Clarke
must be traumatizing for you

after everything that happened.

I'm starting to think that traumatized
is my permanent resting state.

Don't you think that'd change
if we ended Malivore, once and for all?

I do.

But if you think Clarke
is gonna help that...

What I think is that our only
other option is me going full Tribrid.

You said we'd find another way,
but what if this is it?

Then we can figure it out at the school,

which Clarke's lies almost destroyed,
along with me.

And as much as I believe

that everybody deserves
a chance at redemption,

I cannot bring myself to trust Clarke.

Neither should you, Hope.

You're right.
I'll just have to find another way.

♪ ♪

CLEO: Your actions could have
jeopardized my entire mission.

LANDON: You're seriously
gonna lecture me about v*olence?

I literally had to stop you
from murdering Hope.

This is our mission.
We're supposed to be in this together.

Yes, we are, but after last night,
I've realized

you're not the same Landon Kirby
I saw in Hope's heart.

Oh, you mean the fake Landon Kirby
you created in order to fool Hope

into thinking you had saved me
from the prison world?

That Landon Kirby?

I have spent centuries
running from Malivore.

All that I have done, right or wrong,
has been so I may stop doing so.

That is why I agreed
to this partnership.

Because I believed you, of all people,
would understand this.

Wonderful. I've lost my keycard.

Tell me you have yours.

Look...

I want Malivore gone as much as you do.

But for this to work,
you're gonna have to learn to trust me.

(DOOR LOCK BEEPS)

You have seconds
to convince me of your plan.

seconds, now.

If Malivore's still sending monsters,

that means there has to be a portal.
I can lead you to it.

Five seconds. How?

Those portals are Malivore mud.

You know what else
is made of that stuff?

Me.

One locator spell,
and we both can finally be free.

(TIRES SCREECHING, ENGINE REVVING)

Son of a bitch.

Aren't you two a little young
to be detectives?

This is our first case.
So please, just help us cr*ck it.

Are these the two perps
that you encountered?

That's them...
she stole the sculpture, and he...

he b*at the crap out of me.

I'll never forget their faces.

Well, sir...

you're about to.

You don't remember anything...
the perps' faces, what they stole.

Walk away.

So? Have you given it any thought?

Oh, y-yeah, yeah, yeah.

I got a couple superhero names
worked out right here.

Fire and Ice. Tooth and Nail.

Hustle and Flow. I'm Flow.

Cool, um...

But I kind of hate all of those.

What I meant was,
have you given any more thought

to what you're gonna say to Cleo
when we find her?

Oh... that.

Yeah. I mean, I don't know. I...

I'm just gonna lay it all
on the table, you know.

Straight up tell her how I feel,
just like you said.

Now all we got to do is figure out
where Cleo and Landon are holed up

and why you're crouched on the ground,
sniffing stuff.

Boom.

Bump and Grind. k*lling it.

Why are we stopping here?

So there won't be any witnesses.

(CHUCKLES):
Relax, I'm only sort of kidding.

As a general rule,

I like to practice magic
without any prying eyes around, so...

Oh, speaking of that,
uh, don't you think

we should get a little further away
from the Wonder Twins

before we do anything?

You're stalling.
What are you not telling me?

I... (CHUCKLES)

Okay, fine. Have it your way.

- Imitantor pupulis.
- Not that spell again.

Clarke, when are you ever
gonna learn your lesson?

Hope, I promise. I've changed.

Okay? I'm not the monster
you think I am.

Yeah. We'll see.

(GRUNTS)

That's not Malivore mud.

Like I said, I've changed.

Pada Si ibi ti wa.

You made that from Maligoo?

I did. It is quite malleable,

much like clay, very artist-friendly.

So, let's say this spell works,
we find the portal.

What next?

We seal it, obviously.

How? We need Hope's blood for that.

I took some from the school's
medical supplies

when Hope and I
were running tests on the golem.

This will trap Malivore
in the prison world long enough

to find a way to eliminate him.

And as a muse,
I am confident inspiration will come.

The mud is not moving.

What does that mean?

It means the spell has failed
for some reason.

And that all this was for nothing.

(GROANS)

JOSIE: Nobody at school
is answering the phone.

So, what,
we're just supposed to walk home?

I'm more concerned about Hope.

Clarke obviously talked her
into doing something,

and it's probably not good.

Hope made her choice.
And she clearly didn't choose us.

Then I guess my next question is "Why?"

I'm guessing it has to do
with Malivore's other son. As usual.

Landon makes Hope happy.
Though, admittedly,

their breakup probably wasn't the best
for her mental state.

Which is why we need to strike
while the iron is hot.

Strike what, exactly?

Hope is technically single
and ready to mingle,

so this is our sh*t to break that cycle.

And, as her two best friends
in the entire world,

it's practically our sacred duty
to help her find someone new.

Before she inevitably

moves heaven and earth
to try and get back with Landon.

You're saying it is our sacred duty
to get Hope a rebound?

Mm-hmm.

Lizzie, with who?

We can't afford to be picky.

Anyone who won't dissolve
into a puddle of goo

when they have sex will do.

I am more concerned
about Hope's actual life

than her romantic one.

Clarke is a master manipulator
and a k*ller.

And, what, you think
some eligible whatever

is gonna just fall out of the sky?

(HORN HONKS TWICE)

Saltzman twins. Do you need a lift?

Target acquired.

If you are here to try
and make me feel better,

you will only fail, as I have.

Well... we're still partners.

So I got to try.

You know, I know what it's like
to feel trapped.

That no matter what you do,
you can't break free.

When I was in the prison world,
I was always looking over my shoulder.

Being constantly pursued by monsters.

I never knew how I was going to get out.

Or if or when Malivore might show up
and devour me all over again.

I felt the same way after I escaped
his captivity and fled to Italy.

There, I found love...

and I swore I would never
be his prisoner again.

You won't be.

How can you be so sure?

I can't. But I can promise

that anyone that wants to get to you
is gonna have to go through me.

(SOFT CHUCKLE)

In that case, you were right.

You feel better?

Yes.

But more importantly,
I believe I must trust you.

Because I've just had another idea.

Are you kidding me with this?

So you're human now?

Thank you for acknowledging the gravity.

I-It's a pretty big life moment for me.

And it's going to be a short one
if you don't explain yourself.

I will. But can you drop
the mimic spell?

Okay, I can't focus.

Thank you.

(EXHALES) So, several decades ago,
when I was working for Triad,

I set out to find a way
to break the cycle

of torment and abuse
my father keeps putting me through.

But I couldn't figure out how,

until I learned of an artifact

that was capable of granting
my heart's desire.

Made by Leonardo da Vinci,
which had a muse locked inside of it.

You opened it?

I spent years trying. How the hell?

Yet another burden
that being the Tribrid

makes me uniquely suited to carry.

A muse, huh? Well, I guess that explains

how sleeping with that artifact
under my proverbial pillow

inspired me to use a witch
to bring me back to life.

Yeah. In annoyingly human form.

Oh, well, I've always wanted
to be a real boy.

Because it means
Malivore can't control me.

It also means that you pitched me a plan

that you knew would never work.

I never say never.

Just... give it a minute, will you?

You're missing
what's important here, Hope.

I've got literal skin in the game now.

Okay? I'm not trying to trick you,

because once Malivore
finds out I'm free,

he's going to want to k*ll me.

And if that happens,

I won't just resurrect like you
or my birdbrain little brother.

Okay, wh... Uh,
I'm clearly missing something.

Landon's not a phoenix anymore.

And he's not my boyfriend either, so...

Before you ask... don't.

Huh.

I always thought you two
were destined to be together.

Well, destiny disagrees.

There's not a damn thing
I can do to change it.

(FAINT RINGING)

The spell...

it's working.

Well, so much for never.
I guess blood is thicker than mud.

Shut up. Get in the car.

I know you're dying to get there,

but I'd like to avoid dying on the way.

So... slow down?

The minute that we close that portal

is the same minute that we never have
to see each other again.

So I suggest you buckle
your human ass up.

What? That is not
what this is about and you know it.

It's about Landon.

Did you forget
our little chat about destiny?

He was born to be Malivore's vessel

and I was born to be the only one
capable of destroying Malivore.

So... (CHUCKLES)

That's about as incompatible
as dating a guy who has cats.

Well, hey. If a mud man like me
can b*at his fate...

maybe you crazy kids can, too.

But you already believe that, don't you?

All right, we're close.
Take the next exit.

ALARIC: Wait, I-I'm confused.

So who's gonna be Sound
and who's gonna be Fury?

It's a work in progress.

Just know we got Cleo
and Landon's tracks covered.

And a lead on their location.

The Morning Bird Motel.

We're headed there now.

All right, I'll meet you there.
Nice work.

(PHONE BEEPS)

Got about an hour before we see Cleo.

Yeah.

You might want to practice
what you're gonna say.

(EXHALES)

Man, I been playing out
what I'm gonna say in my head for days.

I can really only think of one thing.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for...

not taking her word when I should have.

And damn sorry
for not telling her how I felt

when I had the chance.

'Cause, to tell you the truth,
it's been a long-ass time

since anyone ever made me feel
like I do when I'm with Cleo.

And ain't no one ever inspired me
to want to open my heart and...

I don't know,

be the best version of myself
the way she makes me want to be.

So what you think?

She gonna feel that,
or am I gonna crash and burn?

(LAUGHS)

- Look out!
- What?

(TIRES SCREECHING)

KALEB: Damn, man, this is bad.

Ambulances aren't here yet.
Folks down there could be hurt.

- We got to do something.
- What about Landon and Cleo?

They'll just have to wait.

'Cause it's hero time.

I'm not saying that Hope Mikaelson
is my own personal hero.

I just don't know what any of us
at this school would do without her.

So you've been saying
the whole ride here.

Though I'm not exactly sure why.

I just want you to know
how awesome Hope is.

'Cause she is.

Oh, yeah. For sure.

I had no idea this place was so fancy.

I get why you wanted
to come back here, Jo.

Sure beats public school.

Why don't I give you a tour?

And then we can keep talking.

That sounds like
a really bad idea, Lizzie.

We still have to tell Dad
about Hope's surprise field trip.

(SIGHS) You're right.

Which is why you should
run along and do that

while I show Ethan
Hope's home away from home.

Sound good?

Great. I'm in.

(DOOR OPENS)

(DOOR CLOSES)

- Finch.
- FINCH: What's up?

Jo? Hey.

I got worried when you didn't show up
for Magical Agronomy.

When'd you get back?

Just now. It's been, um... a day.

Are you okay?

Um...

Long story. I'll tell you later.

Right now I need your help.

Okay?

LANDON: When was the last time
you inspired someone this way?

Not since the Renaissance.

Unless you count the time
I had Hope make that golem of you.

Which, for the record...

impressive.

When we lived in Florence,
Leonardo and I would wake every morning

to watch the sun rise
from the Ponte Vecchio

while my powers inspired his creativity.

- Sounds romantic.
- It was more than that.

It was the ultimate demonstration
of our love and trust,

which gave rise
to his greatest creations.

Perhaps it will do the same for you,

so that you can help me
against Malivore as Da Vinci once did.

Following in the footsteps
of the greatest Renaissance man.

No pressure there.

It is good that you are humble, but...

you need not be afraid.

(LANDON EXHALES)

Simply focus your thoughts

and true inspiration will come, hmm?

I'm not feeling anything.

It will come.

Just look into my eyes
and open up your mind to me.

- (RINGING)
- (GASPS)

(GRUNTS)

What do you feel now?

The world is a...

pebble in a vast,

infinite ocean of light and darkness,

full of possibilities.

It is not a pebble, it is a seed.

The shell of an idea.

Now, narrow your focus
on our problem and pick it up.

Allow the idea inside
to take root and grow.

Landon, I love you.

I know what I have to do.

(LAUGHS SOFTLY)

Hope.

What are you doing here?

Better question is:
what were you two doing?

Well, this is awkward.

Clarke.

Baby brother.

Have we met before?

I'm totally getting a vibe.

Who is this tall, strange man?

Someone I cannot believe
Hope actually agreed to work with.

Not work is more like it.

The spell we did was supposed
to lead us to the portal.

Not you.

And definitely not you.

We were also searching for the portal.

In Landon's eyes?

How'd that go?

Let me speak with her.

What exactly are we trying to cover up?

Everything.
We need to hide anything magical

before Ethan sees
something he shouldn't.

So what if he does?
Can't you have a vampire wipe his mind?

Been there, done that.
I already feel guilty enough.

(CHUCKLES): Why?

What'd you do to him?

Please just help me.

LIZZIE: This way to the dorm lounge.

Oh, God, they're here. Invisique.

Next we'll swing by the studio,

so I can show you
some of Hope's amazing art.

Somebody actually once offered her
$ , for one of her sculptures.

Wow, that's a rather large
and oddly specific number.

Because she's awesome.

I'll tell you what I think is awesome,
is that cannon of yours.

You were dropping dimes
at last year's flag football game.

That's a pretty big compliment,
coming from you.

(CHUCKLES)

- This school must have a field.
- For wickery.

Which is like, um, nerd football. Uh...

I think the Swedish invented it.

Right.

Do you want to go toss the ball around?

You can tell me even more
about Hope while we do.

Deal.

Invisique saeclum.

(EXHALES)

That was close.

Finch?

LANDON: How did you pull it off?

Becoming human, I mean.

And would you stop
going through my stuff?

I'd be happy to. If you tell me what you

and what's-her-face were doing
when we showed up.

Oh, come on. I'm Team Good Guy now.

All about redemption.

There's no judgment in this dojo.

You might be human,
but you'll always be a monster.

It's in your blood.

Yeah, well, look who's talking.

Besides, if you've changed so much,
why can't I?

And make no mistake, you have.

Because the Landon I knew
would have never have left Hope.

I'm a son of Malivore.

Like you.

Which means Hope and I
have no future together.

I've finally accepted that.

You kids give up too easy.

Look, I know we hate
each other and all, but...

don't we hate our father even more?

This is our chance
to stick it to the old man

and be what he never wanted us to be.

(STAMMERS SOFTLY)

Brothers.

LANDON: You're out of your mind.

Dad must have really done
a number on you in the darkness

this time around.

That's weird.

Because Hope's the only person I told

about being sent back to the darkness.

Damn. Take it easy on me.

Why? You didn't take it easy on us
at last year's game.

Sorry. Your arm.

That was a really stupid thing
for me to say.

Ah.

Maybe things happen for a reason.

Besides, it's not like you broke it.

Hey, it's all good.

You okay?

We're supposed to be talking about Hope.

I know we've covered a lot of ground,
but do you have any questions?

Now that you mention it,

do you always spend this much time

worrying about other people's
romantic lives?

(LAUGHS SOFTLY)

Not until very recently.
But it beats talking about my own.

Oh, come on. It can't be that bad.

Try me.

Uh...

I was seeing this guy named Sebastian
not too long ago.

But he had to relocate.

Like, permanently.

He had a bit of a drinking problem.

Hmm.

And then there's this guy at school

and we've had this whole
"will they, won't they" thing forever.

Just when I thought we might...

Long story short, still single.

Well, I'm sure someone will come along.

You're sweet,
but I don't need your sympathy.

Hope does, however.

She's fiery, you know?
You'd totally balance her out.

So if you're free on Friday,

I might be able
to set something up for you.

It's getting pretty late.

We should probably head back
before you fumble again.

Come on.

- Hope, wait. Let me explain.
- Why?

If it's anything I've learned today,
it's not gonna change anything.

I believe it will.
And even if I'm wrong,

I'd like you to understand
why I did the things I've done

that may have caused you any pain.

Well, you tried to k*ll me,

and now you're shacking up
with my ex-boyfriend,

so yes, Cleo, there's pain.

I know. And I am truly sorry.

Looking back, I now see
how the drastic measures I took

to try and put an end to Malivore
had unintended consequences.

Not just for me but for the people
I've come to regard as friends.

Especially you, Hope.

More than anyone, you understand as I do

what it means to bear the burden
of a destiny you cannot escape.

And a fate you must face alone.

Everyone keeps telling me
I'm not gonna have to.

But I'm not sure I believe that.

As for Landon,

all he and I have ever shared
is our mission.

I swear it on the blood of my ancestors.

It's none of my business.

But in case you're lying to me again,

you should know I still love him.

And I want him to be happy.

Even if it's not with me.

Then you should tell him that.

Hope, one last thing.

When this is finally over
and Malivore has been destroyed, I...

I really hope you and I
will become friends again.

Landon?

(PANTING)

Clarke?

No, don't try to talk,
it's making it worse.

I have a way that I can heal you.

Don't fight me on this.
My blood can save you.

Unless it's toxic to your Malivore DNA.

You'd be sent back to the darkness.

Is that a risk
that you're willing to take?

I have another way I can heal you,

but I'm warning you, it's gonna suck.

Incendia.

(SCREAMING)

- ETHAN: You still got it.
- LIZZIE: Thanks.

And you should get to thinking
about how you intend to ask out Hope.

Well, last I heard, she has a boyfriend.

Who's out of the picture now.

And in the spirit
of keeping it that way,

what about that date?

Listen, Lizzie, I-I think
you're an amazing wingwoman, but...

if I'm being honest,
I'm kind of into someone else.

Why didn't you mention that before now?

'Cause I didn't know.

Whatever.

You know what? Whoever she is,

she does not hold a candle
to Hope Mikaelson.

Come on, tell me her name
and I'll prove it.

CLEO: What are you doing?

Stealing a car.

Don't tell me theft
is suddenly a problem for you.

We have to go now.

Go where? Did you speak with Hope?

I don't need her,
thanks to your inspiration.

I thought we were partners.
So my needs should matter, too.

What idea did I inspire in you?

Could you just get in the car?

I'll explain on the way.

I thought you trusted me.

And I did.

But until you tell me your intentions,

I am not going anywhere with you.

(SIGHS)

You know, I was really hoping
it wouldn't come to this.

(INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

I wasn't gonna make it.

Then these two guys
with masks showed up.

Never got a chance to thank 'em.

♪ Wild, wild, wild,
wild, wild, wild... ♪

Man, first of all, these are dope.

And second, everybody's safe.

And so are our secret identities.

(CHUCKLES)

And now all we got to do
is figure out our superhero ones.

Second order of business

after you finally deliver
that big speech to...

♪ I start the coffee maker ♪

♪ Wifey said she'll make a plate... ♪

Hold up, weren't you supposed
to talk to somebody?

Not that I can recall.

(TIRES SCREECH)

(ENGINE TURNS OFF)

Landon? You all right?

(SNARLING)

(GRUNTS)

Oh, God.

Close enough. Your turn.

Dr. Saltzman. What are you doing to him?

That is not Landon, Hope.

Where's Cleo?

Who's Cleo?

You're right. It's not Landon.

It's Malivore.

(MONITOR BEEPING STEADILY)

(GRUNTS SOFTLY)

How are you feeling?

Sore.

And surprised,
'cause you clearly saved my life.

Oh, God.
What, does this make us friends?

Hmm, frenemies at best.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Well, being a human sucks.

(CHUCKLES)

But it sure beats the alternative.

Just wait till you get
the hospital bill.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Still, uh, I owe you one.

So, FYI,

it wasn't your ex who gave me
what I'm hoping will be a sexy scar.

Landon isn't who you think he is, Hope.
Literally.

Yeah, I know. I would have known sooner

if I had just allowed myself
to see it, but...

Instead, I let him convince me

that it was his struggle
to survive in the prison world

that changed him from the person

that I know better
than just about anyone.

Malivore finally got what he wanted.

His vessel.

He's been hiding
in plain sight ever since.

I told you he was up to something big.

Destiny, huh?

Maybe you were right.
There's no fighting it.

I don't know.
I was thinking the opposite.

Thanks to you, as crazy as that sounds.

Against all odds,
you escaped the darkness,

b*at your fate.

More importantly,
you did it yourself. Alone.

That's exactly what I'm gonna have to do
when it's time to face mine.

But I didn't do it alone.

I-I needed help
to get out of the darkness.

Just like you're going to need help
against Malivore.

So, while I get why you feel
like being the Tribrid

is your own burden to bear,

don't lose sight
of what's in your corner.

The thing I've never had.

What's that?

Friends.

A family.

There you are.

Figured I'd make myself scarce

So, you're not mad at me?

Relax.

You're not getting rid of me

with Bro-ey McBro-erson back there.

♪ Did I know... ♪

Last year,

I did black magic
during a football game,

and I completely ruined
Ethan's football career.

And then this year,

MG had to compel Ethan
to forget the supernatural world,

and it cost him their friendship.

We have hurt Ethan in so many ways
he doesn't even know.

And I just don't want to see him
get hurt again.

Not by me and not by my sister.

♪ You... ♪

Your sister is a lot.

But her meddling in our relationship
ended with me being here

with you.

So why don't we both
look on the bright side

instead of always dwelling on the past

because maybe...

(WHISPERS): Oh, God.

What happened?

LIZZIE: With my plan? Epic fail.

Ethan asked me out.

And I'm pretty sure I said yes.

KALEB: No. No.

Man, see? Man, all the good ones
are already taken.

Maybe our bar for superhero names
is just too high,

which makes sense, because, I mean,
we were pretty dang super today.

Truer words, my dude.

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

- Hey.
- Hey, guys. Uh...

I'm sorry to make
your Fortress of Solitude less so.

Not at all, Dr. Saltzman.
Is everything okay?

No. No, we've lost
another student today.

What? Who was it?

Someone you no longer remember.

I didn't, either,
until Hope filled me in.

Malivore strikes again.

Trust me, I'll get to him in a minute.

But right now,
this person meant a lot to you, Kaleb.

And remembering her is gonna hurt,

so I just wanted to give you the option.

I mean, if she was important,
of course I want to remember her.

Harae-tamai Kioku Yomigaerashi-tamae.

Well, did it work?

JOSIE:
Well, I remember Cleo now, so yeah.

If only her being devoured by Malivore
could have been avoided.

I'm sorry. To her and to you.

Why did you ditch us?

Especially since we've been over this.

Did our saving the galaxy together
mean nothing to you?

Actually, it meant everything.

It took Clarke, of all people,
to really make it set in,

but I promise I won't do it again.

What kind of promise?

Panda promise.

Well, you're just lucky that we had
a good day while you were gone.

But you are totally on Panda Probation.

In that case, come with me.
