03x06 - Rescue

[bunniefuu]

Oh. [SIGHS]

- Wow.
- Yeah.

Why'd it take so long for us to do this?

No idea.

- Was it worth the wait?
- Mm-hmm.

WET: ♪ so fun, we
said so many times ♪

♪ do you love me like
you love Clementine? ♪

Wait. What were you
gonna tell me last night?

You know, before we... Got distracted?

Something about... who you really are.

Right. That.

Ok. Um...

So, there's

no way this isn't gonna sound crazy,

so...

I... am a descendant

of a long and ancient,

mystical line of... Warriors.

WET: ♪ I need you, I need you ♪

I've been AWOL lately because
I've had my hands full.

Um, I... I don't just fight criminals.

I also fight more...

magical types of evil,

like m-magic bad guys. Heh!

So...

So you're saying...

that magic is real,

there's bad magic and good magic,

and... you are the good magic?

Well, that I believe.

WET: ♪ holding on to
what's over and done ♪

You're really not thrown?

I... I'm not saying
that it's not weird.

Heh!

I... I mean, I... I do
have some questions,

- WET: ♪ changed my heart ♪

♪ with a love that carried... ♪

I knew that there was
something special about you.

WET: ♪ oh ♪

- [CELLPHONE VIBRATES]
- WET: ♪ oh ♪

Oh, it's my final alert
for the shift at the café.

I gotta jump in the shower.

[SIGHS] Oh, man.

[DOOR CLOSES, CELLPHONE VIBRATES]

- WET: ♪ oh ♪
- [MUSIC STOPS]

[ALTHEA HUMMING A TUNE]

- Bam-Bam, coffee.
- Mm-hmm.

- Oh, thanks.
- But you still haven't said anything yet.

- About what?
- Ahem.

- Oh, back in work clothes...
- Mmm.

- Looking incredible.
- Mmm. Life is good.

- Mwah! Have a good day.
- DENNIS: You, too.

[DOOR CLOSES]

SEBASTIAN: Hey, Dennis.
Is Mei-Li around?

- MEI-LI: I'm in the kitchen, Sebastian.
- ALTHEA: Mm-hmm.

'Morning, Baba. How you doing?

I know you're disappointed.

Anthony sold us out,
voted for Ordinance .

He knows the harm it could do,

putting the security
of our city in the hands

of a shady private security company.

He must have thought he had no choice.

- Those stolen photos?
- JIN: Mm-hmm?

Feels like he was
targeted for blackmail.

You think it's that company...
delta security endeavors?

They're the ones that
would benefit the most.

They sponsored the bill; They'd rake in

a lot of city money if it passed.

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna change his mind.

- Really, Baba?
- Mm-hmm.

- Uh...
- Hmm?

- Y-You are?
- I gotta try.

You know, whatever his
secret is, it's not worth

- selling his soul, right?
- ALTHEA: Mm-mmm, mm-mmm. Yeah, it's not.

- Ok, I gotta go.
- Oh, ok.

Nicky?

Ah! Good morning, Baba.

'Morning. Overslept?

- Guilty.
- Ok. I gotta go. See ya.

- Have a good day.
- All right. Bye!

- [DOOR CLOSES]
- ALTHEA: Ahem. Nicky?

- Yes?
- a)... that was very close,

and b)... tell me absolutely everything!

[GIGGLES] Well, n-not everything.

What? Is there something
wrong with my seating chart?

I know it's our first birthday together.

- I'm just trying to get it right.
- MEI-LI: No, no, no.

Your seating chart's fine.
It's the dessert.

Has to be carrot cake.

That's all Ryan ever
wants on his birthday.

- Carrot cake?
- Sometimes I can't believe he is my son.

Carrot cake it is. [CHUCKLING]

I'll see you at the restaurant.

Ok.

- Hey, Nicky.
- Hey, Seb.

- 'Morning, Mama.
- MEI-LI: Good morning.

I, uh, slept through my alarm.

Not sure how that happened.

- Henry was looking for you.
- Yeah, yeah. I saw his texts.

Nope. He came here,

last night, late.

I went up to look for you, but, um...

Oh. What'd you say?

Tsk. I said...

Didn't know where you were.

[EXHALES]

[R&B MUSIC PLAYING FAINTLY]

Could I get a triple oat
milk vanilla cappuccino

- with a dash of nutmeg?
- DENNIS: Seriously, Chloe?

Heh. Nah. Drip's fine.

Uh-huh. There are
coffee shops a lot closer

to the Soong Family
Charitable Trust than this one.

So? What, I can't swing by

and visit my brother at his new job?

Heh! Ok, fine.

Look, I need your help.

What's up? 'Cause if this is...

No, no, no. I know you're still
not speaking with the parentals.

I am not gonna try and
force that one again.

It's about my job at the trust.

I think that some
money has gone missing,

like, a lot of money.

Uh, please tell me that I'm wrong.

Chloe, this is bad.

- [SHUTS FOLDER]
- What happened?

[SIGHS]

- Hey, hey, Jin.
- They got to you.

- Got to me?
- The briefcase, the photos.

You're being targeted,
being blackmailed.

Hey. [SIGHS] Come on.

The reason I changed
my vote is very simple.

- The polls show...
- JIN: Yeah, you sold out.

Whatever was in those
photos, whatever you're

trying to hide, it's not worth it.

It's not too late to
change your mind.

ANTHONY: It's not selling out.

It's reading the room.
People are scared.

They want to feel safe.
Ordinance will help.

Besides, if I had voted
no, I'd lose the race.

Where would that get us then?

I wasn't gonna say anything
until after the primary,

but... I'm creating a new
position in my office.

Director of outreach...
Someone to reshape how

our campaign engages with the community,

someone who can really change
how politics works in the city.

I got to get reelected first,

but I want you in that role.

Think about it, ok?

- ANTHONY: Yeah?
- WOMAN: Want to talk to you...

Carrie, what's this?

Feature on the city's hottest
up-and-coming chefs. Take a look.

Ah! Heh heh!

And this is a problem?

I thought we wanted
press for the restaurant.

That's just the issue.
It's not for the restaurant.

"This rising star is
shattering conventions

"with his fresh fusion take

"on Harmony Dumplings'

typically traditional fare."

[CHUCKLES]

You're not even mentioned.

I know that you don't care about that,

but our company is
investing in the Mei-Li show,

not the Sebastian show,
and you know our concern

about fusion diminishing the brand.

Sebastian did that interview weeks ago.

- What am I supposed to do?
- [CARRIE SIGHS]

Carrie, where is this coming from?

[SETS DOWN MAGAZINE]

Sebastian's a problem.

I saw his record.

A conviction for manslaughter?

I negotiated for
oversight on all hiring.

Hiring him was my choice.

By the terms of our contract, you
are obligated to disclose that to us,

and you didn't.

I am sorry. He has to go.

PEI-LING: Henry,

when you saw her, how was she?

[PANTS]

I see.

- I only caught a glimpse.
- [PEI-LING SIGHS]

NICKY: Hey, sorry I'm late.

- Uh, what's going on?
- Henry saw Zhilan.

- NICKY: What? How?
- HENRY: I told you,

during the ritual, my
Compass powers kicked in.

I could see into that other world.

Just these... snapshots.

I had to sit with
them, but she was there,

- in the wasteland.
- NICKY: I... I saw her die

in the Source Realm, though.
How... how is this possible?

When the Realm collapsed,
you said you hoped

the Warriors' and Guardians'
spirits found their way to

a better place? Maybe
this wasteland is it;

- I mean, minus the "better" part.
- PEI-LING: And they are not alone.

You saw them being hunted by this man.

Xiao said he is working for her,

collecting their spirits
to make her stronger.

NICKY: But Xiao can't get out now,
right? You caged her inside you?

She is trapped for
now, but if this friend

of hers is feeding her,
sending her spirits,

soon she will become
too powerful to contain.

We won't let that happen.

What do we know about
this friend of Xiao's?

Nothing about him, but I drew these.

His blades... the hilts
have a pretty unique design.

HENRY: Maybe we could
try to match the symbols?

RYAN: Won't have to.

Read about this guy when I first
learned about the bloodlines.

Lived in the Yuan Dynasty,

bit of a crank; He's obsessed

with finding the
bloodline's descendants,

claimed they were a stain
on humanity, needed to be erased.

RYAN: He was also a
blacksmith and a mystic.

He forged this w*apon
to be strong enough

to cut the warriors and
guardians down for natural death,

but with a special
feature, a failsafe...

An enchanted hilt.

Supposedly, he could trap their souls.

Ok, what's the name of this
mystic blacksmith bloodline-hater?

Uh, Wu Jian.

Uh, the blades have a long history.

Uh, sold to a private collector in .

They were reported stolen months ago,

just days after the earthquake,

- the collapse of the source realm.
- PEI-LING: And my return.

Maybe Xiao's friend stole them for her.

Maybe, but, Nicky, this other place,

it's not our world, so how the hell

did they get from
here to the wasteland?

NICKY: I don't know...

But...

If the blades can get
from here to there,

maybe I can, too.

NICKY: Maybe I can stop this.

Aah! [GRUNTING]

[PANTS] Ah, come on!

[SIGHS]

So you want to teleport
to the wasteland?

It might be the only way to stop
Xiao's Minion from feeding her

more souls and to protect Pei-Ling.

Ok, sounds good in theory, but how do

we find this place, let alone get there?

It's not like we have
a map of the multiverse.

Maybe not a map, but...
We do have a Compass.

Hold on. The only reason why my powers
activated was because of the ritual.

I could only see into
the wasteland because of

that spirit energy
coming in from that world.

Without that boost, I
doubt I could do it again.

The Compass locates magic.

The blades are enchanted, magical.

Even if I could lock on to the blades,
that still wouldn't get you over there.

We just pulled off
some serious hocus pocus

to get Pei-Ling inside her own mind.

I'm sure we can figure this out.

We have to.

DENNIS: This is the last box.

Babe, check this against the Soong
charitable trust's bank records.

Passwords?

Thank you so much for
letting us use your office.

Of course. So when did you first
notice that something was wrong?

Last night. I had scored
this huge donation,

and I went to go see if the
check cleared, but then I noticed

that the account balance
had gone way down.

I mean, accounting's
bound to notice any minute,

and then, as soon as they do, mom
and dad are gonna go ballistic.

I mean, with my history, they're
gonna think that I stole it.

- ALTHEA: I'm sure that's not true.
- HENRY: They will.

I found the day and time of the theft...

Last Wednesday... : P.M.

They transferred the money to
an untraceable offshore account.

And it was from your office.

[SIGHS] Oh, my god!

ALTHEA: Don't worry. This
is actually good news.

CHLOE: How is this good news?

Because now we know the
theft was an inside job,

someone with passwords,
proximity, access.

Someone you know.

EVAN: I'm just scratching the surface
in my research into Delta Security,

but... blackmail fits the pattern.

[SIGHS]

How did they know to
target Anthony that night?

It was internal research,

information paid for by the campaign.

Well, they could have sources
inside the company you hired.

They could have a mole
inside the campaign

or just good, old-fashioned spying.

Intercepting that research paid off,

bought them a vote for their Ordinance.

Anthony denied he was
blackmailed right to my face.

Instead, he offered me a job.

You gonna take it?

[INHALES, SIGHS]

Do you want my honest opinion?

I know what it's like to justify
working inside of a corrupt system.

It's not worth it. His offer...

he's buying my silence.

NICKY: Found something.

Ok, we've exhausted Xiao's journals

and the history books, so
I decided to look elsewhere.

Chinese folktales?

"The Emperor's Witch"?

It's about an evil witch
in the emperor's court.

She performed extreme acts
of magic to prove her value,

including experiments
on the local peasantry.

Her final trick...
Vanishing these subjects

right in front of the emperor,
sending them off to other worlds.

RYAN: Well, certainly
sounds like Xiao.

HENRY: Yeah, or like
any evil witch from any folktale

from any other culture on earth.

RYAN: Well, timing lines up. We
know she worked for the emperor.

These experiments sound a lot like
the ones we read about in the journals.

Whoa. Look.

NICKY: The pendant... the same
one Xiao used to get you here,

and we thought it allowed travel
between worlds, but this proves it.

HENRY: You're getting
all this from a folktale?

We've done it before.

Besides, this is our best lead.

PEI-LING: But I destroyed the pendant.

Mmm, I still have the pieces.

Well, couldn't bring myself to throw
'em in the dumpster. Since we have 'em...

We could try putting it back together.

Uh, Pei-Ling smashed it
pretty good. Won't be easy.

No match for your steady doctor hands.

Well, beats pulling a
wedding ring out of a...

Never mind.

Ok, assuming we can fix the pendant,

we still need a witch.

NICKY: Xiao used magic to
pull this off, so we need

to find the original spell
or a decent substitute.

I will check Xiao's journals.

Thank you.

Bye.

MAN: Oh.

Ah. Evan.

- Thank you for coming.
- EVAN: Of course.

So Carrie says I’m
in breach of contract.

[SIGHS] Unfortunately, she's right.

I reviewed your deal on the
way over, and it's pretty clear.

You violated it by not
disclosing Seb's record.

[MEI-LI SIGHS]

I thought I led you
through the fine print.

You did.

Carrie says if I don't fire
him, she'll tell corporate.

[SIGHS]

Evan, I cannot lose Sebastian.

- If I refuse...
- EVAN: A.H.I. Could sue you.

I... I'd do what I can, but
they'd have a strong case.

We'd face deep pockets,
an army of lawyers.

You could lose a lot of money,
you could even lose the restaurant.

Well, just, uh,
double-checking. Heh! Cool.

Ok. Bye!

[SIGHS] Nope.

Jill was at the Giants game.

She said she was at the game.

Let's run her story and
see if it checks out.

[SIGHS] Right.

God, am I just so hopelessly naive?

You're new at this.
I do it for a living.

Heh! You've been an
investigator for, like, days.

DENNIS: Caught up with my old
friend and our current suspect Paul.

- Oh. Does he have an alibi?
- Yup. Giants game.

CHLOE: Wait. Jill said that
she was at the Giants game.

DENNIS: Ho ho! I know.

- CHLOE: Oh. Oh!
- DENNIS: Yeah.

- Paul and Jill.
- I know.

Well, they have alibis.

- ALTHEA: Looks like Marina's our girl.
- CHLOE: What? No!

No, I told you, it can't be
her. I hired her. She's...

She's become a friend. I
mean, also, her family's,

like, loaded. She
doesn't need the money.

Did you and your friends

need money when you
started your bling ring?

I believe I have found something.

Ryan and I looked at these already,

when we were trying to figure
out what the pendant does.

- I may understand it better.
- What do you mean?

I can read the symbols.

Xiao and I share a body.

It is as if I know what she knows.

Magical translation
skills. Sounds familiar.

Th-this is Xiao's magic,

uh, traveler magic.

I can read this spell.

Guess we found our witch.

Good news... I did it!

Bad news...

Looks like that.

- HENRY: Did you use glue?
- RYAN: And tweezers.

- Hey, I'm a doctor, not a jeweler.
- NICKY: Thanks, Ryan.

Looks like we have everything we need:

Power source, a witch, and a Compass.

No, you don't.

I've been watching you guys
cobble together a plan based

off of maybes and what ifs, using magic

that... none of us understand.

Henry, if you have issues
with parts of the plan,

- we can talk about it
- No, not parts. All of it.

I'm sorry but... I'm out.

[DOOR OPENS]

NICKY: Henry?

Please, wait.

[SIGHS]

What's going on? I've
never seen you like this.

Nicky, that fairytale...

You blew past the most important part.

Those... peasants that Xiao
flung over to other worlds,

they never came back.

- [SIGHS] Yeah.
- Even if we get lucky

and we get you over to the wasteland,
that could be a one-way ticket.

I just...

We could lose you.

I could lose you.

- Your life would be in my hands.
- Well, wouldn't be the first time.

I know it's risky, but
we've faced danger before.

We've trusted each other with our lives

countless times, and we've never failed.

I know things have changed,

but that trust,

it hasn't gone away, not for me.

I still believe in it.
I still believe in us.

I'll try.

Zoom!

Mmm. So, uh, Chloe tells me

you've made yourself
indispensable at the Trust.

We are so lucky to have you.

Did you know that this
girl had competing offers

from all of the biggies...
Ford, Gates, Danvers?

Oh! Well, what made you choose

the Soong Family Charitable Trust?

Well, Chloe, obvs.

I mean, we just hit it off.
We had so much in common.

Business majors, skiers, Aspen girls...

CHLOE AND MARINA: Not Vail.

- [ALTHEA CHUCKLES]
- No. Not Vail!

Actually, Althea, you guys
have a lot in common, too.

Marina cheered in college.

Made Nationals and everything.

Senior year, class of .

Go, Tigers!

[ALTHEA CHUCKLES BRIEFLY]

Mm. Um, so...

Marina, I've been meaning
to ask. Total brain fog.

Uh, who flaked on whom?

Did we have plans last Wednesday?

It was me. Sorry.

I cashed in my vacation
days for a long weekend.

Where'd you go?

Don't hate me. Bora Bora.

[ALTHEA GASPS] Yeah.

- Pics, or it didn't happen.
- Of course.

[GASPS] Wow.

Time-stamped and everything.

MARINA: Uh, yeah. So?

Uh, sorry, Marina. Look... [SIGHS]

A bunch of money got stolen
out of the trust last Wednesday.

We know it's an inside job,

so we just have to rule you out.

Of course. Oh, my god.
Chloe, that's awful.

Oh. Have you
looked into that Paul

guy? Always got
weird vibes from him.

Will you excuse me? I'll
be right back. [CHUCKLES]

- DENNIS: Hey, babe.
- Hey.

Marina have an alibi?

Yeah. Seems like it.
Are you by a computer?

Yeah. Why?

I need you to check on something for me.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Hey, hey! Jin. You give it some thought?

I'm not taking the job.

May I ask why?

You're being blackmailed,
Anthony. You know it. I know it.

Jin, these conspiracy theories...

As long as Delta
Security's got dirt on you,

they own you.

As long as that remains true,

you're not fit to
represent this district.

So you're leaving the campaign?

To start.

- I'm running against you.
- [CHUCKLES]

What? You're joking.

- This district deserves better.
- And that's you?

We will find out on election day.

May the best candidate win.

- PEI-LING: This is where I returned.
- NICKY: A place of passage.

It might make it easier for
you to access your powers.

It might.

Here we go.

No. I thought about him,
but he doesn't have access

- to any of...
- [ALTHEA GASPS]

I'm just noticing your
bracelet. I love it.

- I used to have one just like that.
- Thank you. I love it, too.

I always had to take
mine off for cheerleading.

Such a pain, but worth
it, right? For cheer?

- Oh, yeah, totally.
- [CHUCKLES, CELL PHONE VIBRATES]

Speaking of cheer,

when you went to Nationals,
didn't you guys win?

- No. We placed.
- Still, amazing.

Your coach must be so great.

- Oh. What was her name again?
- Oh. His name. Charlie Mears.

[CLICKS TONGUE]

I'll admit, you've got your
details pretty down pat.

National finalist, coach Charlie Mears.

Unfortunately for you,

I follow college cheer.

And I know your squad didn't
make Nationals in .

Did some digging, though,

and there was a Marina
Winthrop on the team.

What is this?

Oh. Uh, that was just, like,
this misprint that happened.

Whoever you are, you're
not Marina Winthrop.

The Danvers foundation. Yeah,
I have friends over there,

and they've never heard of you before.

Your resume is a complete fiction,

and I know you could've posted
those Bora Bora photos from anywhere.

You're a fraud, a fraud
with expensive taste.

And I know you took the money.

- What do you want?
- The money. Duh.

You're gonna get back on your phone

and do whatever you need to do

to get every cent back
into the trust account,

or we're calling the cops.

Now.

Lao Gong, are you sure
you want to do this?

Our whole lives are going to change.

I know. It's a big decision.

But you feel you have to do it.

I won't do it without your blessing.

You have it.

Ok.

What are you gonna do?

I don't know.

Evan's gone through the
contract a million times.

He doesn't see a way out.

If they sue us, we
could lose everything.

But, Lao Gong, I can't.

I just cannot fire Sebastian.

Hey, I’m... I'm gonna
have to call you back.

Here we go.

[READING SPELL IN MANDARIN]

It's working.

I'm there... in the Wasteland.

[PEI-LING SAYING SPELL IN MANDARIN]

I can see it, too.

Henry!

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

I can't feel the connection.

I lost her.

When I submitted your
employee information

to corporate, I didn't
think it mattered.

You knew what you were doing,

covering for me.

Yes.

I should've been more careful,

but I need you to know this.

I will not fire you, Sebastian.

I don't know how, but I will fight this.

Wait. No.

No, you won't.

I'm not gonna let you do that, Mei-Li.

It's not just me.

You have an entire staff out there.

They need this job.

They need you.

- Sebastian...
- Those people, this food.

I will not be the
reason you lose it all.

I refuse.

Your restaurant matters too much to me.

I'll pack up my knives.

Sebastian.

I don't see it as just
my restaurant, you know.

Not anymore.

This place is ours.

_

She did it. She returned all the money.

She was scared.

I, uh, lied to her while
you were in the bathroom,

told her we had a smoking g*n...

Backup surveillance
footage of the theft.

She fell for it.

Oh, thank you. Thank
you so much, Althea,

for saving me. The money's back.

My parents don't need to know
how big of a failure I am and...

Hey, hey, Chloe...

Look, I know you feel like

you have to work for the Family Trust,

but if this job is
making you feel this way,

you can make a change.

I used to think that tech
would be my whole life.

And Dennis? Your dad cut him off,

broke off all contact with him,

and he's making it work.

Wait. Is that what he told you?

What do you mean?

When the earthquake
happened, dad called a truce.

He offered a full olive branch:

His old job, his trust fund.

My parents practically begged him.

Dennis said no.

Who are you?

Hurt the boy, and you're dead.

I'm a Warrior. I'm not
here to hurt anyone.

- Did he follow you here?
- Who?

ZHILAN: The Harvester.

Zhilan?

Nicky.

What the hell are you doing here?

You can rest here for now.

We'll go check the other traps.

Who are they?

After I lost my tribe,

I got caught in one of her traps.

Sara used to be a hunter in a past life.

Fortunately, Tianyu cut me down.

I'm not the game they're after.

You still haven't answered my question.

I came here to defeat him,

this Harvester.

You came here by choice

to fight another world's villain,
another world's problem?

What he's doing here...

Reaping Warrior and Guardian souls...

It's all part of a bigger plan.

Still, it's just so...

You.

You'll never do it, though.

There's no defeating the Harvester.

Believe me. I've tried.

We don't have a choice.

Your sister needs us.

What?

[SIGHS]

Pei-Ling is alive.

How?

Kind of a long story.

[INHALES AND EXHALES DEEPLY]

I wondered if I’d see her here,

if I'd ever have the chance.

That's why I came.

And for so long,

I dreamt of having more
time with Pei-Ling, too.

Somehow she's back.

I have to help her.

But you left her,

and now you're stuck here.

Yeah.

But since I am, I have to do what I can.

Stopping the harvester is
the only way to protect her.

Maybe together, we can
actually take this guy down.

Ok, Henry got me here by locking
on to the Harvester's blades.

He can't be far.

Oh, you could've mentioned that earlier.

- NICKY: What?
- He's close. You don't understand.

The Harvester, he is
lethal and he is fast.

- We have to get ready now.
- [LOUD THUD]

- What?
- [POUNDING ON DOOR]

No. It's stuck.

Someone's blocked the door.

We can't just leave them.

An offering for the Harvester.

Better them than us.

Sara, please.

We have to go back.

[ZHILAN AND NICKY GROANING]

Come on.

Tianyu, they're not our problem.

Now, come on. Let's go.

- ZHILAN: Help us.
- TIANYU: I'm trying.

It's stuck.

Aah! He's coming.

Run. Save yourself.

Nicky?

NICKY: He knew my name.

He didn't fight me. Why?

He's not after the living.

Come on. We have to find Tianyu.

Wait. It's ok. It's just us.

We've got to keep going.

He needs a second.

Please.

One second, then we go.

What did you mean,

the Harvester's not after the living?

- I thought you were...
- Dead? So did I.

Why wouldn't he just k*ll
us, take our souls, too?

- [LOUD BUZZING]
- He's close.

So protect him with our lives?

And end the Harvester once and for all.

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

I've tried everything, Pei-Ling.

I've tried homing on
the blades, the pendant.

Nothing works.

You have not tried everything.

I know you still love her.

You have been searching with your mind.

You need to look with your heart.

Use it, hmm?

Even if it hurts.

[LOUD BUZZING]

You're not hurting him.

No!

[CLANG, LOUD WHOOSH]

My work here is done.

I have no fight with you.

[SPEAKING CHINESE]

[VOICE OF NICKY] Oh, hi.

[VOICE OF RYAN] Henry,
this is my sister... Nicky.

[VOICE OF NICKY] I know
things have changed,

but that trust, it hasn't gone away,

not for me.

I still believe in it.
I still believe in us.

[VOICE OF NICKY] I want to be with you.

You're my future.

I can see her.

Nicky!

HENRY: Nicky.

I can't hold it much longer.

Do it, Nicky. k*ll him.

I didn't say anything because
there was nothing to say.

I'm not going back to them.

Dennis, Chloe needs you. She's drowning.

She's trying to fill
your shoes, but she can't.

I know. The last
months have been hard,

but I like who I am now.

For the first time in my life,

I'm out of their shadows

and I'm making a living for myself.

I'm not relying on their
money or their name.

I'm just afraid if I go back...

Hey.

I like who we are now, too.

We don't have to give that up.

But right now, your family needs you.

[NICKY BREATHING HEAVILY]

HENRY: Nicky!

You did it.

How?

Did you get him?

I... I ran out of time.

I had to make a choice.

Pei-Ling?

Zhilan?
