After going to magic school Hexside, Luz discovers from friends Willow and Gus that a ceremony named "Grom", which somewhat resembles a prom, is coming to the school. Luz's other friend, Amity Blight, is selected as the Grom Queen, much to Luz's joy. However, Amity is sad about being chosen. While checking on the decorations for the Grom, Luz finds weapons, to which Amity reveals to her that the Grom Queen has to fight against Grometheus, a monster living below the school that takes the form of into anybody's worst fears, to prevent it from escaping and consuming the Boiling Islands.

As everyone celebrates their victory, Luz asks whom Amity wanted to be her date, but Amity dismisses the subject and throws her letter away. The letter is then revealed to be addressed towards Luz.

Camila then responds by saying that she loves Luz letters, which Luz believes means her texts. However, it is revealed that someone has been sending her mother letters while claiming to be Luz... ===== Webster Shakespeare Cabangbang deludedly thinks he has mastered the English language, and his university decides to give him his diploma so they can get rid of him for his poor performance.

Gilbert himself was a most Establishment figure, frequently writing about other Establishment figures, and was usually firmly on the side of England's police forces and shadowy (though lethal) Intelligent departments. But perhaps because of his many years of legal practice, he was also equally at home in filling his narratives with other types of characters: sleazy strip-club owners, tough and semi-crooked policemen, hard-bitten union officials, factory workers, relentless and unscrupulous Intelligent agents, and a wide variety of hard-boiled villains and crooks from small-time burglars and con men to gangster chieftains. Flash Point begins with Jonas Killey, an obscure but obstinate and somewhat truculent solicitor with a small practice in Wimbledon, attempting to bring charges against Will Dylan, a rising young politician, for what he purports to be the embezzlement of funds during Dylan's handling of the merger of two small labor unions several years before. The facts are obscure, the documentation equally obscure, the matter of no interest to anyone except Killey; the various Law Societies and associated bodies to whom he appeals for help in pursuing his claims are reluctant to take up the matter. The story unfolds through the points of view of various legal and political personalities, and little by little Killey succeeds in bringing the matter to wider public attention—at the cost of drawing into the picture a number of unscrupulous characters, communist trades union men apparently acting on his behalf, and an even more unscrupulous intelligence department's chief acting to discredit Killey and suppress the entire matter. Much of the ensuing book takes place in lawyer's chambers, magistrates' courts, newspaper offices, and the occasional meeting between high government officials, including the Prime Minister himself. By the time the book ends, the cover-up has become a newspaper sensation comparable to the Watergate scandal of that time in the United States and in the ensuing election the Prime Minister and his party are turned out of office. Unlike most other Gilbert books, however, all of the violence is of the non-lethal kind: people are threatened, roughed up, and actually beaten, but the only two fatalities in the story are inadvertent. There is, nevertheless, a sharp edge to the entire story that is entirely in keeping with what one of Gilbert's American editors said about him after his death in 2006, many years after the publication of Flash Point: "He's not a hard-boiled writer in the classic sense, but there is a hard edge to him, a feeling within his work that not all of society is rational, that virtue is not always rewarded.".Douglas Greene of Crippen & Landrau, quoted in The New York Times, 15 February 2006 Such is the case in Flash Point, although Jonas Killey himself, the uncompromising instigator of so much national drama, ends up in surprisingly benign circumstances in totally different, non-legalist surroundings. ===== After he witnesses his father’s murder at the family dojo, Ryo dedicates his life to finding the man responsible – a mission that takes him from the streets of Yokosuka, Japan, to the sprawling metropolis of Hong Kong and beyond.

Getting tired from lifting the bags, he uses a piston to launch himself towards his destination. Meanwhile, Truffles receives an call from a ordering customer, only for her to become frustrated that she and the customer could not spell the dish's name. As Truffles calls for her husband Mung to get the order, Chowder then crashes through the roof and lands next to her, who hands Chowder the misspelled order instead. Mung and Shnitzel, the latter a rock monster assistant, are waiting in the main kitchen as Chowder enters with the two bags and the order for a "froggy apple crumple thumpkin". As Mung notices that the two bags seem smaller than they should be, Chowder admits to snacking a bit on his way back, and proceeds to regurgitate the various ingredients he ate, along with a marching band. With the mess Chowder has made, Schnitzel steps out of frame and shakes away the clutter from the screen. Mung begins to prepare the order by consulting the gigantic "Big Book of Recipes", as its recipe is at an "advanced level" and Mung has not made the dish in centuries. For step one, Mung introduces the "no-fruit" (based on tofu) to Chowder. Once a leaf is pulled off, the no-fruit cycles through various types of fruit, and by hitting it at just the right moment, a chef can bring forth the desired fruit. As Mung, Chowder, and Shnitzel tries to turn no-fruits into apples, Chowder excessively hits an already-altered no-fruit, which leads to its transformation into a violent critter that proceeds to attack Shnitzel. For step two, Mung gives to Chowder the meat from a twelve-legged cave frog. Chowder accidentally places the meat into a chipper machine before removing the explosive stink sac; once the sac comes out, Chowder tries to taste it, only for it to start beeping. Chowder throws it away, with the sac landing on Shnitzel and exploding into pungent gas. After 67 steps, the final step involves a thumb wrestling match with the dish. Meanwhile, the customer has arrived to retrieve his order. The dish proves difficult for Mung to beat, so Mung tags in Chowder for the match. Chowder panics and proceeds to run away, until Mung advices him that a chef tastes the dish before serving it. Chowder regains his confidence and takes a bite out of the dish, defeating it. However, Chowder becomes too gratified and tries to consume it entirely. The dish is able to carry itself over to the customer while Mung keeps Chowder at bay, and the customer leaves the building. As Mung and Truffles note their success with the dish, Chowder consumes the entire screen and leaves. ===== Thirty Years of Adonis is a story about a Beijing opera singer. ===== Written with Gilbert's usual urbane and understated style, the events mostly take place in the West Country of southwestern England, around the small cities and moors of Exmoor and Dartmoor and its extremely dangerous seacoast. The Empty House begins with the apparent death of Alexander Wolfe, a genius-level biologist working at the Biological Warfare Research Station under the close supervision of the Army's Western Command Headquarters at Exeter. His car has plunged, apparently accidentally, off a cliff far from the main roads into the churning waters of the Celtic Sea below, waters so turbulent that no thought is even given to trying to recover the car or his body. Wolfe has recently taken out a large, and unusual, insurance policy that specifies that if his body is ever lost at sea and never recovered, he is to be presumed dead and his sister shall be paid a large amount of money. The unhappy insurance underwriters send a young but highly qualified adjuster, Peter Manciple, to look into the peculiar circumstances of Wolfe's disappearance and to recommend whether the claim should be paid or not. A personable young man, Peter spends the next couple of weeks moving from town to town and one overnight stay to the next, meeting a variety of interesting people and gradually coming to a conclusion as to what has happened to Alexander Wolfe. Even for Gilbert, a writer who was comfortable writing many types of thrillers and mysteries, The Empty House contains an unusual number of disparate elements: there are domestic scenes; chases and violence on the moors; cross-country Buchanesque escapes; sympathetic but murderous Israeli agents; even more murderous Palestinian agents; stolid policemen; clever lawyers; affable innkeepers; shrewd schoolmasters; relentless Army soldiers and counter-agents; and unexpected shifts from one apparent sort of story to the next. In the end, in one final surprise, Manciple delivers his report to his employers, rejects an offer from the Army to join its counter-intelligence group, and goes off to become a schoolmaster at Blundell's School. Gilbert himself was a most Establishment figure, frequently writing about other Establishment figures, and was usually firmly on the side of England's police forces and shadowy (though lethal) Intelligent departments. In The Empty House, however, there is a sharp edge to the entire story that is entirely in keeping with what one of Gilbert's American editors said about him after his death in 2006, many years after the publication of this book: "He's not a hard-boiled writer in the classic sense, but there is a hard edge to him, a feeling within his work that not all of society is rational, that virtue is not always rewarded.".Douglas Greene of Crippen & Landrau, quoted in The New York Times, 15 February 2006 ===== In the future, ecological collapse has caused society to crumble.

In other words, we can say that the books are getting away from us.

It counts among other with the testimonies of former DEA Héctor Berellez that led the investigation of Camarena's murder in operation Leyenda; Phil Jordan, former DEA Intelligence Director; Mike Holm, DEA resident agent in charge in Guadalajara when Camarena got kidnapped; and Manny Medrano, former assistant US Attorney and Lead Prosecutor in Camarena case. In the telling of Camarena's wife and former DEA Phil Jordan and Mike Holm, Camarena cost the cartels billions of dollars when his investigations led the Mexican Army to burn down Ranch Búfalo, a major marijuana plantation. Camarena earned further enemies by discovering that the CIA was working with the cartels to fund anti-communist Contras in Nicaragua. The docuseries interviews the DEA agent who spearheaded the investigation of Camarena's death. The agent, Hector Berrellez, states that the CIA agent Félix Ismael Rodríguez helped torture Camerena to learn what Camarena knew about US connections to Mexican cartels. According to Berrellez, Camarena was killed because he was going to disclose these connections. Also interviewed are employees and enforcers of the cartels who helped capture and torture Camarena, but later became witnesses for the DEA. Historians also contend that the CIA participated in Camarena's killing. One year before Camarena's murder, Mexican journalist Manuel Buendía was assassinated in Mexico City: some journalists and historians have concluded that the killings of Buendía and Camarena were linked, since both discovered that the US Central Intelligence Agency was using Mexican and Central American drug traffickers to import "cocaine into the U.S. and [facilitate] the movement of arms to the contras."pp.171, 402–403, 413. Hector Berrellez, the DEA agent who supervised the task force investigating Camarena's murder, has long maintained that the CIA was involved in Camarena's killing. Former cartel employees told USA Today that a DEA official and CIA operative participated in meetings with the cartel where Camarena's abduction was discussed. In 2019, the United States Department of Justice began reinvestigating Camarena's murder. After Camarena's death, Caro-Quintero was arrested and convicted for Camarena's murder, but was released by the Mexican government in 2013. The docuseries shoots footage in the home where Camarena was tortured and murdered, now an elementary school. During interviews with Camarena's wife, she states that she believes neither the US nor Mexican governments told her the whole truth about her husband's death. The CIA has denied any involvement in Camarena's death. The series features interviews with real persons involved in Camarena's life and death, and dramatizes others; a few fictional characters are based on a composite of other real personalities. ===== The action takes place during a single day. Guinevere Pettigrew, a straitlaced unsuccessful governess in her late 40s, is facing destitution. Her employment agency at last arranges an interview with Delysia LaFosse, a nightclub singer and socialite, whom they believe to be looking for a nursery governess though in fact she is seeking a maid. When Miss Pettigrew arrives at the luxury flat at 10 am, she is frantically invited in by Delysia who, without troubling to find out why Miss Pettigrew is there, enlists her help in getting rid of Phil, a lover who has stayed the night. Rising to the occasion, Miss Pettigrew tells Phil she is there to fit Miss LaFosse with new underclothes, and convinces him to leave. Delysia explains that at any moment another lover, Nick Calderelli, who owns the flat, may let himself in. They clear away traces of Phil's presence. Nick arrives, handsome and dangerous – a man with a cocaine habit whom Delysia finds irresistible in spite of herself. Convinced that Nick is a bad influence, Miss Pettigrew dissuades him from staying by telling him that she is an old friend who will be staying the night. Delysia confides that she is torn between Phil, who is in a position to back her for the lead role in a new show; Nick, who part-owns the nightclub in which she is a singer; and also Michael, a self-made and newly-wealthy man who wants to marry her. The doorbell rings, announcing Edythe Dubarry, a beauty salon owner. She is desperate for advice, her fiancé Tony having just left her. Immensely impressed with the way in which Miss Pettigrew had dealt with Phil and Nick, Delysia tells her friend that Miss Pettigrew will no doubt also be able to talk Tony round. They dress for a late afternoon party, Delysia lending Miss Pettigrew a gown while Edythe gives her a makeover. At the party, Miss Pettigrew has a little too much to drink, and later frets she was rather rude to Tony, but almost by accident convinces him to reconcile with Edythe. Delysia and Miss Pettigrew have just returned to the flat when Michael unexpectedly arrives, furious. Delysia explains why: having agreed to marry him, she had been distracted by Nick on the morning of her wedding, and had simply not turned up. Michael had got drunk, had hit a policeman, and had been sent to prison for thirty days. In spite of his evident temper, Miss Pettigrew is impressed. They take a taxi to Nick's nightclub, where Delysia will be singing. Miss Pettigrew strikes up a rapport with Joe Blomfield, a wealthy middle-aged batchelor who has made his fortune designing women's corsets. Delysia is sitting with Michael when Nick demands a dance. Michael bridles, and the two men square off. Seeing that Delysia is unable to resist Nick, Miss Pettigrew hisses to Michael "Sock him one". Michael does so, and Nick backs off. Quickly leaving the nightclub, Michael and Delysia hail a cab, while Joe and Miss Pettigrew hail another. Miss Pettigrew confesses that in spite of appearances she is in reality a penniless governess; Joe says that makes no difference to his growing feelings. The couple drive around for 45 minutes to allow the others some time at the flat alone. By the time Miss Pettigrew arrives, Delysia and Michael have decided to marry. Planning to buy a large house, they ask if Miss Pettigrew will live with them as their housekeeper. Overjoyed, she agrees, and is even happier when she hears that Joe will be calling for her in the morning. She comments "I have a beau at last." ===== Sunil (Ranvir Shorey) is preparing for a Diwali party at his house.

First, New Scotland Yard and high government officials are concerned about an alarming rise in organized gangster activities, particularly from the Crows, and, under the command of Chief Superintendent Morrissey, determine ways to combat it. One step, apparently related to this, involves promoting Inspector Bill Mercer to Chief Inspector and posting him to the small city of Stoneferry on Thames, an upriver station of Q Division of the Metropolitan Police. (Q Division, it will be recalled, was the division in which Gilbert's better-known Inspector Patrick Petrella spent most of his career.) Not long after arriving in Stoneferry, the tough, scar-faced, and rather enigmatic Mercer becomes a drinking companion of John Bull, the one-armed but extremely rugged proprietor of the town's leading garage; somewhat to the puzzlement of his fellow policemen, Mercer takes a peculiar interest in the operations of the garage and in the history of how it came to have its predominant position on the High Street. The third component also shows up soon after Mercer's arrival: the discovery on a small island in the Thames of the body of a young woman; she has been completely buried and been there long enough now that only her clothes and bones remain. Mercer, as a divisional detective, takes charge of the investigation, supervising the local uniformed branch. Because of a handbag found buried nearby, it becomes nearly certain that the remains are those of Sweetie Sowthistle, a teenage girl who was a well-known and very well-liked local prostitute and who had suddenly vanished two years earlier. An inquest is called to formally identity the remains but, to the chagrin of the local police (and the apparent indifference of Mercer), evidence is unexpectedly introduced to indicate that the victim was a somewhat older woman who could not have been the missing Sweetie. A second young woman, the clerk from a local solicitor's office, who also apparently left Stoneferry two years earlier is soon brought into the picture but it proves curiously elusive to determine her actual status: Were those her bones in the sand or had she simply moved to London? While Mercer and his fellow policemen attempt to solve this riddle, Mercer's interest in John Bull's garage continues to grow and, in a sudden change in the narrative flow, the story becomes less of a procedural and more of a study in violence as it pivots back to Superintendent Morrissey and his determination to smash the criminal gang the Crows. In a final, carefully planned ambush of the Crows with a deadly shoot-out in London, Mercer plays a key role, bringing him face to face for a final time with John Bull, the one-armed garage proprietor. And then, on the final page, almost as an anti-climax, we learn the apparent story behind the disappearances of the two Stoneferry girls two years before. As one of Gilbert's editors said after his death in 2006, "He's not a hard-boiled writer in the classic sense, but there is a hard edge to him, a feeling within his work that not all of society is rational, that virtue is not always rewarded.".Douglas Greene of Crippen & Landrau, quoted in The New York Times, 15 February 2006 Such is the case here. ===== Sunrise on Mercury is a collection that comprises thirteen stories dated 1954 to 1979. ===== A hotel porter finds out the secrets of the guests by looking through the keyholes of four different rooms: * in the first one he sees a woman combing her hair, * in the second, what looked like a woman removes her whig and false breasts, revealing that she was in fact a transvestite, * in the third, a man drinks champagne with a woman sitting on his lap, * finally the door of the fourth room opens while he is watching and the furious guest kicks him down the stairs. ===== Bombay-based Usha Sinha (Madhubala) lives a wealthy lifestyle with her widowed dad, a retired Colonel.

They include a wealthy Etruscan professor who excavates and sells ancient art objects, Italian police and judiciary officials, assorted politicians and lawyers, sympathetic Italian working-class people, and two sinister Mafia figures. The protagonist, Robert Broke, a middle-aged Englishman and expert on Etruscan art, lives in Florence in a state of semi-suspension, having never fully recovered emotionally from the sudden deaths of his wife and child in England several years earlier. He runs a bookstore and art gallery and is on friendly, if somewhat distant terms, with the other members of the British colony. He is attached to his youthful housekeeper and her elderly father, who is a marvelous craftsman in restoring broken antiques. Broke is invited to an elaborate luncheon at the country estate of Professor Bronzini, where excavations into ancient Etruscan tombs are ongoing. Broke encounters the very different members of Bronzini's peculiar household and is shown some of the excavations and ancient tombs. Without quite realizing it, he catches a glimpse of something that he shouldn't have seen—apparently an ancient Etruscan's helmet—and from that point onward his well-being becomes in danger. Within a few days, the elderly craftsman who works for Broke is killed by an apparent hit-and-run driver late one evening—and Broke himself is arrested, put into jail and accused of killing the man.The rest of the book dwells on attempts by a devoted band of British expatriates to free him and their experience with the Italian legal and political system that weaves its mesh around Broke, and vicious counter-moves by Mafia gangsters who hope to ensure that Broke's arrest will lead to his conviction so that the shadowy deeds taking place on Professor Bronzini's estate are left in peace. Fortunately for Broke, a few Italian officials are less committed to gaining a guilty plea than others. Moreover, an extremely clever local lawyer takes up his case, and on his side is a gilded youth with special talents, who is also the adopted son of Professor Bronzini, and a giant Corsican handyman who works for the Professor. As is frequently the case with Gilbert books, there is a violent dénouement with a satisfactory number of corpses—which leads to a newly found interest in life, on the part of Broke. ===== An English tourist, sightseeing in Paris, wants to light his cigarette but does not have a match.

While visiting his terminally ill aunt Joan in Cornwall, Strike is approached by a woman who wants to hire Strike's firm to investigate the disappearance of her mother, Margot Bamborough, a general practitioner in London, almost 40 years previously, on 11 October 1974. As a result of their previous successes, Strike and Robin (still a salaried partner) now employ three contract investigators and an office manager. Both are dealing with their own irritations: Strike over his aunt's illness, suicide threats from his ex- fiancee Charlotte (now a married mother of two), and the attempts of his half- siblings to get him to attend a party honoring his rock star biological father Johnny Rokeby; Robin over Matthew's intransigence in their divorce, her continuing PTSD, and her unsettled personal life, brought into clearer focus by her brother and his wife having their first child. The police's principal suspect in Margot's disappearance was a currently incarcerated serial killer named Dennis Creed. The daughter (Anna) and her wife give the firm a one-year contract to try to trace information, although, because the small firm has three other ongoing cases, it takes several months to run down the surviving witnesses and investigators (or their children). During the year, Strike's aunt dies from cancer, Matthew grants Robin the divorce because his mistress/girlfriend becomes pregnant, Charlotte attempts suicide and calls Strike to tell him goodbye -- although Strike's quick reaction gets help to her in time, and the heavy work schedule combined with a lack of communication about all of the issues contributes to many personal misunderstandings within the firm, including arguments between Strike and Robin and the termination of one of the contract investigators for instances of inappropriate behaviour toward Robin. In August 2014, although the firm is still trying to trace leads, the client and her wife end the contract as of the end of August, two weeks before the allotted year. Despite this, Strike and Robin continue to investigate. There are three breakthroughs with the case: Strike locates an elusive patient of Margot’s, Steve Douthwaite; a receptionist, who claims she was the last person to see Margot alive, agrees to speak to Strike and Robin; and, through Robin’s inventiveness and persistence in attempting to secure an interview with Creed behind Strike’s back, Strike is granted permission to interrogate Creed in Broadmoor Hospital on September 14th. Strike outwits Creed and this leads to the discovery of the remains of another victim of Creed, Louise Tucker, bringing closure and relief to her father. Robin and Strike then use evidence from the original police investigation and their subsequent investigation to find Margot's body and identify her killer: Janice Beattie, a nurse who worked for Margot's practice. Margot had (correctly) begun to suspect Janice had been poisoning Steve Douthwaite and was implicated in the apparent suicide of Douthwaite’s lover. Strike deduces that Janice is a serial-killer, who has murdered many more victims over decades. An avalanche of publicity follows the discovery of the remains of Louisa Tucker and Margot Bamborough, and the arrest of Janice Beattie. Robin and Strike both move out of their homes temporarily to avoid journalists. The novel ends on Robin’s 30th birthday, with Strike (in contrast to the generic last-minute gifts he gave Robin at Christmas and on her 29th birthday) buying Robin thoughtful and personalised gifts and taking her to the Ritz for champagne; enigmatically, Strike smiles to himself as he remembers a conversation with a friend about the competing demands of career, romantic relationships and marriage. ===== Bittersweet first love story of a stage frightened prospective musician Woo-jin (Kim Jung-hyun) and vivacious would be actress Yeon-soo (Seo Ye-ji). ===== Dum Dum, an eccentric music hall clown, enters a stage set complete with footlights and a prompter's box.

Rosa investigates George's death and, through the trail of several other ghosts, uncovers the existence of a church- based self-help group known as the Grace Group. Every member is in danger of dying or already dead, and their ghosts are in danger of being torn apart by an unknown force instead of moving on. With the help of Madeline, the former spirit guide of the Countess, Rosa and Joey are able to protect most of the souls. Later, however, Madeline betrays everyone by revealing that she had been ripping the souls herself to absorb them and gain their life force, and that she had targeted the Grace Group because their souls were exceptionally weak. Madeline explains that she wants nothing more than to end her several centuries of thankless work as a spirit guide, and intends to return to life because she cannot pass on. She absorbs the souls of the remaining Grace Group members and possesses Rosa's body, effectively returning to life. Joey is able to extract Madeline from Rosa's body, but in doing so, Rosa's mind becomes overloaded with "the knowledge of the universe", and is driven insane the same way as her aunt and grandmother before her. Madeline reveals that she was responsible for driving the other Blackwell women insane by attempting to possess them, but failing due to her insufficient life force and the emotional weakness of the host. Madeline's occupancy then departure would cause the universe to fill the void left behind and overstimulate the mediums' senses. Rosa is placed in solitary confinement at Bellevue Mental Hospital. With the help of Joey and the ghost of her late aunt, Rosa gains temporary control over her immense knowledge, and explains that Madeline is now threatening to wipe out all life in New York in an attempt to forcibly vaporize her own soul by drawing in the power of the universe through a portal. Rosa and Joey escape the hospital, and confront Madeline. Rosa takes control of the portal and subsequently allows every departed soul currently in the world to flow through her and pass on, Madeline and her aunt included. Joey, however, is still unable to pass on. The portal closes. Rosa, losing control of her mind again, decides to pass her life force to Joey with her remaining power. Joey's body becomes corporeal as he is properly alive again, and Rosa dies. The end scene shows Joey spreading Rosa's ashes over the docks where Rosa had spread her aunt's ashes at the beginning of the series. Joey monologues about how he has tried to look for spirits to help since Rosa's death by investigating the scene of a recent highway accident following rumors of disembodied screams and cries, but finds that he is no longer able to hear and see ghosts like before. Uncertain of what to do now that he is just a regular human again, Joey merely concludes that "life is worth living", and promises to live it out fully to honor Rosa's sacrifice. ===== The movie starts off with Ariyanachi getting ready for her daughter's ear piercing function.

Rather than defend Pancho from the mob, the sheriff, Harvey Denton (played by Rod Steiger), turns Rivera over to the mob. Pancho is hanged. The mob celebrates at the saloon after the lynching. Hennify confronts Paul and Denton. He asks what the penalty would have been if Rivera had been convicted rather than lynched. Hennify is told the penalty would have been five to ten years in prison. The next day, Hennify visits Paul's store. Hennify observes a mark on the face of Paul's wife, Annamay (played by Fay Spain), and notes that the mark matches the ring on Paul's hand. After Hennify leaves, Annamay accuses Paul of killing an innocent boy. Paul warns her not to damage his good name and throws her to the ground. Denton enters the store and confronts Paul with his suspicion that Paul killed Pancho. Denton suspects that Annamay was in love with Pancho. The town's Mexican residents stop patronizing Paul's store. They stand in silent protest outside the store. Paul taunts Pancho's brother, Ramon, challenging him to enter the segregated saloon. Ramon enters the saloon and strikes Paul three times with a whip. Paul stirs up the white patrons by blaming the Mexicans for the town's problems.

Annamay appears and tells the mob that she loved Pancho and that was why Paul killed Pancho. Paul and Denton exchange gunfire. Denton is wounded, and Paul is killed. Denton tells the priest that there is no absolution for him or for the mob. He confesses that he led a mob 16 years earlier that killed an elderly man. Denton then collapses and dies.

His father, Stephen Stotch, is criticizing improper wearing of protective masks, derisively calling them "chin diapers", when he is distracted by a crowd assembling for a live show staged by Randy Marsh, who announces a "pandemic special" on marijuana sold by his Tegridy Farms. Randy's wife, Sharon, berates him for seeking to profit from the pandemic. Meanwhile, Eric Cartman sings ecstatically about social distancing, as he can stay at home and avoid online school lessons by faking connection problems with Zoom classes. His joy turns to fury when his mother, Liane Cartman, tells him that school could soon reopen. At Tegridy Farms, Sharon informs Randy that her brother, Jimbo Kern, has COVID, but Randy insists Jimbo is sick because he is a "fat alcoholic". Randy learns from the TV news that a bat in Wuhan, China started the pandemic, prompting a flashback to a past visit to China, in which he cavorted with Mickey Mouse, during which they both had sexual intercourse with a bat. Realizing they are responsible for the virus, Randy then calls Mickey Mouse and wanders around South Park, guiltily observing the negative impacts of the virus. Cartman visits Kyle Broflovski to complain about the prospect of having to return to school. The South Park Elementary school board convenes a Zoom meeting led by Mr. Mackey. The meeting quickly devolves into a shouting match of obscene insults, prompting Mr. Mackey to use a mute button. The meeting decides that South Park Elementary will reopen, however it will be run by the now defunct police force, which had lost most of its funding because of police violence.

Mickey Mouse threatens to kill Randy and send his DNA samples to scientists to create a vaccine. Randy convinces Mickey to give him more time by promising to find a cure. That night, Randy enters Jimbo's hospital ward and gives him a marijuana joint mixed with Randy's semen. The following day, Sharon informs Randy that Jimbo has recovered. Randy sets about augmenting his Pandemic Special marijuana with his semen but is interrupted when Sharon summons him to observe that Jimbo has grown a mustache identical to Randy's. The local hospital becomes packed with male and female patients afflicted by the same type of mustache. Dr. Anthony Fauci appears on television, telling people to wear masks over the area where their mustaches are, while the news advises people to stay home and relax with some Pandemic Special. The police claim Token was hospitalized because of coronavirus and the entire school is placed under quarantine, which becomes more like a prison under the officers' watch. Butters becomes increasingly upset he may never get to visit Build-A-Bear, while Stan starts to suffer a nervous breakdown. In the White House, President Garrison receives a call from Stan, who tells him that one of the students is really sick, but Garrison refuses to do anything about the virus because Mexicans and other ethnic minorities have a higher fatality rate than whites. Stan promises to take Butters to Build-A-Bear and convinces the students to break out of the school. Protests, rioting and looting erupt in South Park, enabling police to regain their funding and munitions to quell the civil unrest. Kenny McCormick is among those killed by the police.

He apologizes that she does not have a real choice in returning to her House because the Lyctors are perpetually being chased by Resurrection Beasts, the ‘ghosts’ of the dead planets of the Nine Houses. In addition, large portions of Harrow’s memory are missing; Ianthe Tridentarius gives her a series of letters written by Harrow herself, giving her detailed instructions for what to do or avoid doing in various scenarios. Ianthe appears to know the reason behind these letters but has been hexed by this past Harrow to prevent her from any talk of it. The book alternates between two perspectives; second- person chapters documenting Harrow's experiences in the present as a Lyctor, and third-person chapters that take place in the past, documenting Harrow's memories of the events in Canaan House in Gideon the Ninth. However, her memories of Canaan House directly contradict the events of Gideon, including replacing Gideon herself with Ortus, who is extremely occupied with his telling of an epic poem called The Noniad, as her cavalier. In this version, Harrow reveals to Ortus that she is insane and frequently reads text that appears differently to other characters. Teacher informs that there is a beast lying in the heart of the facility called “the Sleeper,” who takes out a different cast of characters than previously died at Canaan House in Gideon. In the present day, John, the Emperor of the Nine Houses, explains the nature of his secret war to her: ten thousand years ago, humanity was wiped out by an unknown cataclysm. John resurrected the entire population of humankind with impossibly powerful magic, but the nature of necromancy caused this action to spawn revenant Resurrection Beasts. John and his Lyctors have been fighting the Resurrection Beasts for millennia; most of the Lyctors have been lost to madness or in battle with the Beasts. The surviving Lyctors are Mercymorn, the 'Saint of Joy', a vicious and embittered woman; Augustine, the 'Saint of Patience', who is flippant and outrageous to hide what seems to be a deadened, ruthless manner; and Ortus, the stoic, relentless 'Saint of Duty'. These three, along with John, tutor Harrowhark and Ianthe in an extremely dangerous art: the ability to travel to an otherworldly afterlife called The River where they can defeat the Resurrection Beasts by destroying their astral bodies. This travel involves a Lyctor’s soul metaphysically entering the River and letting their consumed cavalier’s soul enter their body in the physical realm in order to defend them while their bodies are vulnerable. Harrow’s faulty ascension leaves her unable to do this successfully and so is of limited use in their war. Similarly, Ianthe has difficulty letting Naberius take over. John also alludes that the Empire is under attack by a terrorist organization called 'Blood of Eden', which seeks to foil the Empire's colonialist ambitions, led by the mysterious Commander Wake. Eventually, Harrow encounters Camilla Hect, the cavalier to Palamedes Sextus, believed dead after the events at Canaan House. Camilla is working for Blood of Eden, and helps Harrow learn that Palamedes is not truly dead; his spirit is sequestered in a tiny pocket dimension inside the River. In the present, the battle with the nearest Resurrection Beast is about to begin. In the past, Harrow learns that this Canaan House is not real - instead it is a similar 'pocket' in the ether sustained by beliefs and memories; everyone in the House other than Harrow is, in truth, dead. The survivors make a last-ditch attempt to fight the Sleeper by casting a spell to summon the spirit of Matthias Nonius, the greatest swordsman in the history of the Ninth House. Matthias's ghost fights the Sleeper to a standstill, energized by Ortus's intense dedication to his legend. In the present, Gideon awakens in Harrow's body, revealing that the second person perspective was not stylistic but in fact literal, portraying Gideon's observation of Harrow's actions from her own point of view, while in the 'past', Harrow's perspective was her own. It is revealed that Harrow's memory loss and seemingly defective Lyctorhood was caused by Harrow and Ianthe performing brain surgery on Harrow to destroy all memories of Gideon. This ensured that Gideon's soul was never truly absorbed by Harrow and she would continue to exist; Harrow loved her too much to allow her to permanently die. In the present, the corpse of Cytherea the First is possessed by the ghost of Commander Wake. The surviving Lyctors' attempt to murder John, who they blame for the deaths of their cavaliers and comrades in ages past. They learn that Gideon was born as a result of Wake artificially inseminating herself with semen stolen from John, making them, in effect, Gideon's parents. Gideon was created to breach the Locked Tomb on the Ninth House and release the prisoner inside. This prisoner is explained to be Alecto, John's cavalier, whose life was used to give John his limitless necromancy powers while preserving her life. They have sworn revenge on John for never sharing this technique and letting their cavaliers die needlessly. Mercymorn destroys John's body, but he survives and kills her. He then sheds his affable persona and demands the remaining Lyctors' fealty. Augustine declines, vowing to fight and die, and throws John into the River in an attempt to kill him permanently. In Harrow's constructed version of the past, they kill the Sleeper - unmasked as a projection of the ghost of Commander Wake - with the help of Matthias Nonius. Harrow starts to regain her memories as everyone but her comes to accept that they are all ghosts. They tell Harrow to return to her life and resolve to follow Matthias into the River and face the Resurrection Beast. As the two perspectives converge in the present, Ianthe chooses to side with the Emperor and helps him kill Augustine. The Resurrection Beast is repelled by Matthias and the ghosts, but Harrow's consciousness is either unwilling or unable to return to life. Still in a vision of the Locked Tomb where she first met the Body, she climbs into the Body's empty coffin and falls unconscious again. Six months in the future, an unknown person awakens in an apartment in an unnamed city with Camilla Hect. ===== The teleplay is based on a true story about a divinity student, Carl Doss, and his wife, Helen Doss, of Redlands, California, who adopt 12 children of various ancestries. ===== The Hartlewick Horror is an adventure set in 1923 in the small village of Hartlewick where the player characters are dispatched to discover the source of a mysterious energy field. ===== The Legions of Death is an adventure set in 43AD where the player characters investigate a renegade TARDIS owner. ===== A Place Among the Fallen is a novel in which a quest involves going to the heart of darkness. ===== The Night of the Scorpion is a novel in which precognitions, chases, ancient secrets, artificial satellites, and the Nazca Lines of Peru are involved. ===== Lightship is a book of 120 color paintings by Jim Burns. ===== Protagonist is perhaps too strong a word to describe Colonel Russell. As Haggard himself wrote about his fiction: > My novels are chiefly novels of suspense with a background of international > politics. A Colonel Charles Russell of the Security Executive, a not > entirely imaginary British counter-espionage organization, while not a > protagonist in the technical sense, holds the story line together in the > background by his operations, while the characters in the foreground carry > the action."From the back flap of the dust jacket of the Walker and Company > American edition of The Conspirators, New York, 1967 This is certainly the case with The Mischief Makers. Written with the spare, dry, and understated style that Haggard had evolved from his earlier more introspective, character-driven novels, it is told through the viewpoints of a number of diverse characters and only infrequently do we see Colonel Russell directly. The elderly Berber president of an unnamed North African country—not Arab, for he despises Arabs—has concocted a hair-brained scheme to avenge a decades-old rape of one of his daughters by a long-since dead Englishman serving in the French Foreign Legion. He entrusts the scheme—the instigation of armed and violent race riots by supposedly oppressed blacks in British cities—to Abdelaziz, one of his numerous sons, who is both an accredited diplomat and the head of the country's secret service. Reluctantly but obediently, Abdel duly smuggles various arms into England via the diplomatic bag while simultaneously seeking to find enough disaffected blacks throughout the country to use in urban uprisings. But the Security Executive is tipped off to the scheme and its present head soon seeks the counsel of Colonel Russell. There are frequent referrals both by Abdel, Colonel Russell, and the other characters in the book, most of whom are working at cross purposes to each other, to the real-life Bristol riot of 1980, which had happened the previous year. The hidden arms are moved, and then moved again. Angry blacks are recruited by various characters to beat and kill other characters. But the Security Executive, and Charles Russell, have their own highly resourceful black, William Wilberforce Smith, as a counter-weapon. Smith, whom Russell, a devout Establishment conservative but far from being a racist, hopes will eventually become head of the Security Executive, sees through several dangerous missions, and Russell and Abdel have a fruitful meeting for the first time in 37 years, not since Russell, a British Army major in Italy during World War II, had saved the youthful Abdel from being summarily executed by an angry French officer. By the end of the book, Abdel has returned to his native land, an uneasy peace reigns in England, and Russell is contentedly sipping brandy while listening to the current head of the Security Executive predict that "The rats are going to win in the end."The Mischief Makers, Walker and Company, New York, 1982, page 173 ===== The film explores the investigation and harassment of Martin Luther King Jr. by The Federal Bureau of Investigation, through newly declassified documents.

The production then turns to the events of the ship's final night. Thomas Andrews, the 39-year-old naval architect who built the Titanic, works in his state room. J. Bruce Ismay, president and managing director of the White Star Line, boasts of plans for a speed run the following morning. Ismay pulls an iceberg warning from his pocket and hands it to the ship's captain, Edward J. Smith. It was the third warning Capt. Smith had received that day. The Titanic Salon Orchestra plays as Capt. Smith dines with the first-class passengers. At 7:30 p.m., the captain receives a fourth warning of icebergs in the ship's path. Four decks below, 712 souls travel in steerage. A young Irish couple performs a jig. In the wireless room, at 9:30 p.m., another ice warning places the Titanic directly within the area of danger. The wireless operator is distracted by stacks of messages passengers wish to send. At 10 p.m., the captain retires to his cabin. At 10:30 p.m., the SS Californian spots an ice field and stops its engines to wait until morning before proceeding. At 11 p.m., the wire operator on the Californian sends a warning to other ships. The Titanic's wireless operator has difficulty understanding the message and replies, "Shut up. Shut up. I'm busy." In the first class smoking room, a small group remains, but otherwise quiet settles over the ship. At 11:40 p.m., in the crow's nest, an iceberg is spotted directly ahead. A warning is sent to stop the engine, and the emergency doors are sealed. The Titanic strikes the iceberg. A number of passengers gather on the deck and discover pieces of the iceberg. Capt. Smith returns to the bridge and learns that the ship is taking on water. At 11:55 p.m., Thomas Andrews describes the damage to Capt. Smith and Ismay: The ship has suffered a 300-foot gash and will sink in no more than two hours. Capt. Smith orders the lifeboats readied and the passengers mustered, but no general alarm is to be sounded so as to avoid panic. The Titanic has only 16 lifeboats and four collapsibles, enough to hold only 1,000 of the 3,000 persons on board. Capt. Smith directs the wireless operator to send out a distress call. The wire operator on the nearby Californian is off duty and does not receive the call. In a further effort to attract the attention of the Californian, Capt. Smith orders the firing of rockets. An officer aboard the Californian sees the rockets and notices the Titanic listing. Captain Lord of the Californian is notified but goes back to sleep. At 12:36 a.m., a ship replies to the Titanic's distress call, but it is 58 miles away and will arrive too late. In third class, the passengers are told there is no danger but that they should put on life jackets. The ship begins to list. At 12:15, the covers are removed from the lifeboats, and women and children begin boarding. At 12:42 a.m., the first life boat is lowered with only 20 persons, despite having a capacity of 40 persons. Another lifeboat is lowered with only 12 passengers. The Titanic Salon Orchestra continues to play as the crew continues firing rockets with no response from the Californian. On one side of the ship, only women and children are permitted on the lifeboats. On other side, the rule is relaxed, and Henry Harper boards a lifeboat with his prize Pekingese dog. An elderly couple, Mr. and Mrs. Isidore Strauss, refuses to be separated and remains on board. Lifeboats continue to be lowered. At 1:30, an officer fires his gun to control entry onto the lifeboats. At 1:46 a.m., Ismay asserts that there is an unclaimed place on one of the final lifeboats and takes it for himself. Claude Rains, who narrated throughout the telecast, intones, "At the time President Ismay left his ship, there remained on board 1,643 passengers, among them 168 women and 57 children". A small group of women and children had been allowed to evacuate earlier, the remaining steerage passengers were finally permitted to head to the deck shortly before 2 a.m. The final lifeboat is lowered at 2:05 a.m. The captain gives leave for crewmen to abandon their posts with the directive "every man for himself." At 2:15 a.m., the orchestra, directed by Wallace Henry Hartley, plays its final piece, the Episcopal hymn "Autumn". Many passengers jump into the freezing water in their life preservers. Andrews remains calmly aboard. The ship sinks at 2:20 a.m. with 1,502 souls, including many children from steerage. In the closing narration, Rains reviews the iceberg warnings that were not heeded, the lack of sufficient lifeboats, and the failure of the Californian to respond to the Titanic's pleas. Rains closes with these words: "Never again has man been quite so confident. An age had come to an end." ===== A retired sea captain living alone in a remote cottage in Orkney is befriended by a young girl, Andrina, who asks him for a love story from his past. He repeatedly refuses to tell her, until he eventually succumbs, when the consequences are not as he expected. ===== It follows Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections. Andrew Weissmann, Andrew McCabe, John Brennan, Carter Page, Felix Sater, Margarita Simonyan, Celeste Wallander and Camille François appear in the series. ===== ===== ===== The story begins with the death of speaker’s grandmother late night on Saturday. A big crowd of relatives and villagers gathered in front of the house. At the same time the self styled master of ceremonies get the readers’ attention. The writer introduced the narrator’s uncle’s character as a teacher of small school and a trifle mad. He is the person who arranged the whole ceremony. It seems that he is a domineering character without pity and a caricature of his caste and class. Apart from all the tasks at the funeral house the narrator’s uncle’s concentration goes for professional mourners. The fact that he rushed out to seek the mourners makes the narrator as well as the readers become more anxious. The master became more furious and at the same time he became a ridiculous figure. The way he seeks mourners to respect his aunt’s death makes the readers laugh at him. It is a feudal society where powerful people get the maximum use of low class poor people. Most of the time low class associates with poverty, illiteracy and servility. The story depicts the caste and class as a rigid inhuman system. For example the uncle upbraided the fishermen who were getting ready to go to sea for not coming to respect his aunt. For him the poor fishermen were ‘stupid rascals’ and ‘low-minded fellows.’ Than letting them to find something to feed themselves, for him it is more important them to be presented at the funeral. Next he strode to the area where mourners lived. Due to caste norms they have lost their rights for private grief/genuine grief. The mourners were thus obliged by their society to perform an act to which they were assigned irrespective of what their own grief was. Their master also physically abuses the two sisters, this shows the physical display of power. There is a clear example of social exploitation of the underprivileged when the sisters are forced to attend the ceremony according to the orders of their master while their own mother lays dead at their place. The task they do has become a social ritual in their caste ridden society. They mourn without a grief. And at the same time they are unable to be present at their mother’s funeral and it becomes more pathetic. It is ludicrous, absurd and ridiculous and it brings the story into a satirical level. Furthermore we are informed the high class people - ‘Lawyer friends’, ‘Police Magistrate’ - who are about to come for the funeral. ::“What will the people say?” In the story the uncle thought only of the ‘status’ of the family, which according to him would be reflected by the number of mourners. The next important thing is that the way that the mourners perform their task and it was what expected from them. They repeated the words and phrases from the grieving relatives and made a big outcry. They worked in unison. They picked a nice theme for their outcry which is about the grandson who came from Malaya. ::“Your grandson has come, wake up my beloved!” At the same time the educated people of the family are more considerate and sympathetic when they got to know the mother of two mourners passed away as they sympathized the mourners, paid them and asked them to leave. ===== This story is three couples love, lust and their typical relationship.

He plays the Jew's harp and sings as the opening credits play. Will is an unsophisticated "plowboy" from Georgia. He introduces the audience to the barracks. Irving has been put in charge of the barracks even though, according to Will's understanding, Irving has been "sick with ROTC for a whole year." Ben Whitledge, a short, skinny soldier with glasses and an ill-fitting uniform, becomes Stockdale's bunk mate. On learning that Irving's not sick, Will confronts him and "busts him up some."

As the Colonel conducts his inspection, a drunk Sgt. King returns and is confronted by the Colonel. Will and Ben are assigned to gunnery school. Sgt. King is demoted to private and assigned to gunnery school with Will. ===== ===== Protagonist is perhaps too strong a word to describe Colonel Russell. As Haggard himself wrote about his fiction: > My novels are chiefly novels of suspense with a background of international > politics. A Colonel Charles Russell of the Security Executive, a not > entirely imaginary British counter-espionage organization, while not a > protagonist in the technical sense, holds the story line together in the > background by his operations, while the characters in the foreground carry > the action."From the back flap of the dust jacket of the Walker and Company > American edition of The Conspirators, New York, 1967 Nuclear Development, a British agency headed by a top scientist named William Nichol, has developed a valuable new source of atomic power called Slow Burner. Very small quantities of it can generate vast amounts of power, and, rather than needing enormous industrial plants to contain it once developed, useful quantities can be carried about in containers no larger than a suitcase. Unless properly handled, however, it emits deadly epsilon rays. It has, nevertheless, recently been successfully installed in a number of English factories and is now considered by the British Government to be a vital part of the country's future. Nichol and Colonel Russell of the Security Executive are surprised and upset to be informed by Sir Jeremy Bates, a very senior Permanent Secretary, that intermittent readings of epsilon rays are being detected as coming from a modest private home in the London suburb of Dipley. Nichol and Russell are old friends, but Nichol is detested by Sir Jeremy, primarily from jealousy, and much of the book, rather than becoming a standard suspense thriller, is devoted to detailed examinations of the feelings and motivations of the two men. A third personality, a senior scientist who works under Nichol, is discovered by the Security Executive to be the probable person to have planted the epsilon-ray emitter in the house, but Sir Jeremy, for complicated reasons of his own, refuses to move against him. Sir Jeremy, in fact, we now see gradually losing his mind from his all-consuming hatred of William Nichol, and eventually there are two different attempts at murder. Russell is both a highly skilled and highly ethical head of his department and carries out his investigations with dispatch and intelligence but, also having an inbred fear of over-suspicion, he finds himself on the wrong side of the argument with his chief assistant, Major Mortimer, about several essential events. In the end, however, he cheerfully concludes that he himself was wrong and that Mortimer was right—an important indication of just why Charles Russell is the perfect man to be holding down his key position in the government. ===== Edge-On, dubbed "Cyberventure Mission File #1", includes four scenarios, and guidelines for linking the scenarios together. ===== The production examines the "human barrier", a term used at the time to describe the human limitations on supersonic and high altitude flight. While flying an experimental plane at 70,000 feet, an Air Force test pilot, Capt. Gene Lipton, crashes and cannot recall the moments leading up to the crash. A detailed accident investigation and a hearing before a board of officers concludes that the crash was caused by human error and that the plane's mechanical systems were sound. However, the investigation also shows that the location of the radio, on the floor behind the pilot, resulted in pilot vertigo at high altitude and speed, demonstrating a need for a design change. In the break between the first and second acts, John Cameron Swayze presented a history of aviation and of the United States Air Force. Chief of the Air Force Thomas D.

Nito, a skateboarder, attends the same school as Krista. One day, while idling outside the apartment where he and his apathetic guardian live, Nito meets a fellow tenant named Yoni, who invites Nito to a party that night after seeing him perform a kickflip.

While working on a performance inspired by a past experience Nito had with a parakeet, he and Krista share a kiss. In an effort to attract more viewers and subscribers to his YouTube channel, Adam produces a dramatized video of himself detailing an experience he claimed to have had wherein he fended off an attack by a wild warthog using a firearm.

She is merely 10 years old and loses her way back. There she meets a mysterious young boy, who she takes to be a changeling and who guides her back to her manor, disappearing without giving his introduction. Six years later in 1903, James Herondale and his friends, his parabatai Matthew Fairchild - son of the Consul Charlotte Fairchild, Thomas Lightwood, (son of Gideon Lightwood and Sophie Collins) and Christopher Lightwood (son of Gabriel Lightwood and Cecily Herondale), chance upon a Deumas demon while patrolling. This strikes them as odd, for Deumas were rarely encountered. James Herondale goes into the shadow realm for the first time in 3 years, and the demon recognizes him. Demonic activities had been scarce in London as the next generation of Herondales, Fairchilds and Lightwoods had grown up. The next morning, Cordelia Carstairs enters the London society, along with her brother Alastair Carstairs and mother Sona Carstairs. Her father has been arrested for a vampire raid gone rogue, and the Carstairs wish to make powerful allies in London to save their reputation. She is greeted by Tessa, James and Lucie Herondale, who she is set to be parabatai with. Whilst roaming in the park, Lucie tells Cordelia that James is in love - subtly hinting that the object of his affection might be Cordelia herself. Cordelia is stunned, for she never expected him to return the love she felt for him since childhood. The next evening a ball is held by the Herondales at the Institute, welcoming the Carstairs family to the society. Whilst there, James leaves Cordelia stranded on the dance floor when he goes on to greet the mysterious new arrival, Grace Blackthorn, the adopted ward of Tatiana Blackthorn. Luckily Matthew intervenes, saving Cordelia's reputation. James had met Grace in 1999 when Tatiana hired him to cut the briars of her house during his summer vacation in Idris. While dancing, it was revealed that James has been in love with Grace since he was 13 years old. Lucie once again sees the "changeling boy" who reveals himself to be the ghost of Jesse Blackthorn, the late son of Tatiana. His mother asked Downworlders to preserve his body, so his spirit has remained trapped in the in-between. His mother and Grace can also see him, and he assumed Lucie could only see him as a child. He’s surprised she can still see him six years later. James is suddenly swept into the Shadow Realm again and there he sees Barbara Lightwood, Thomas's oldest sister, being attacked. Seconds later, Barabara collapses in the ballroom but is saved by Cordelia and Anna Lightwood, Christopher's sister, and she shrugs it off as exhaustion. A grave news arrives as there is a demon attack in Seven Dials. It is revealed that in his childhood, James visited Cirenworth Hall a few years ago and contracted scalding fever. Cordelia had tended to him then and read him her favorite book Layla and Majnun. When he had slipped into the realm again, instead of running away, she had curled up in the bed beside him and let him use her as an anchor to stay tied to their world. The children had parted on proper terms, never once mentioning the incident again. The next morning the youngsters go for a picnic to Regent's Park where Cordelia gets acquainted with Anna Lightwood, Thomas Lightwood and Christopher Lightwood. Anna invites Cordelia to her flat. At James' arrival, she takes him aside and makes him apologize to her for leaving her in the middle of the dance the previous night. James reveals his relationship with Grace to Cordelia who is heartbroken but happy for him. Later Grace comes over to him and they kiss before being attacked by demons, in broad daylight. The demons strike and wound three shadowhunters- Piers Wentsworth, Barbara, and Ariadne Bridgestock. Everybody is immediately rushed to the institute, where Brother Zachariah tends to the wounded along with several other Silent Brothers. Jem singularly seeks out James who relegates his experience of going into the shadow realm before the attacks. In order to be useful, James attempts to disappear into the shadow realm at will, as he had done once before. He succeeds when Matthew sends him into shock by insulting him. In a flashback it is shown that after his illness in Cirenworth Hall, James meets Grace once again, as he had been for preceding years. There he rambles on about Cordelia and that's when Grace points out that he was in love with Cordelia which he half-heartedly denied. Later on, though Grace requested him to use his shadow abilities and retrieve her familial bracelet which was seized by Tatiana and had the Cartwright family symbol on it. The Clave is intimated of the demon inside the greenhouse and Charles reprimands James and tells him to stay away from the Blackthorns for a while. He is disgruntled and calls upon the Fairchilds where he gives some dust he had collected from the alternate dimension to Henry Branwell to assess and draw conclusion. He is joined shortly by Christopher and Thomas and they talk when a missive addressed to Matthew arrives, signed by Grace. James reads it and leaves the house instantly, not informing his friends that the note stated that Grace was in danger. Alastair meanwhile, drops Cordelia to Anna Lightwood's place at her independent apartment in Percy Street. Cordelia notices Anna's heartless nature for the first time when Anna chucks away a mundane woman, who she seemingly had a fling with. However Cordelia admires Anna and strikes a conversation, where she informs Anna that she wishes to be a hero. They are interrupted by Matthew who takes them to meet Malcolm Fade. Jesse visits Lucie in her bedroom and informs her that James' life is in danger, as Grace was being followed by the Blackthorn family demon and would probably murder anyone who wasn't a Blackthorn. She gathers her weapons and goes to save James. Cordelia, Matthew and Anna visit Malcolm and Hypatia Vex, where they inquire about the attacks and if the downworlders might have heard of it. Cordelia saves the warlocks' lives when she captures the waitress, Arabella poisoning the drink. In return they help her by sending for Ragnor Fell who might be able to help them. In a flashback, In 1902, Thomas Lightwood had been gone for his travel year and stopped at Paris, He had met Alastair Carstairs there, and they had toured the whole city amiably. Around that time, Thomas had felt himself warming up to Alastair. Back in the night, James meets up with Grace as per her instructions and she asks James to forsake his Shadowhunter blood, run away, and marry her. It’s the only way she can escape her cruel mother. James silently considers it but decides there’s no way he can forsake his family, friends, or parabatai. Grace is angry at his declaration, but she’s cut short when demons attack them. Lucie, Christopher, Matthew, Thomas, Cordelia and Alastair come to their aid. The strongest demon recognizes James and asks why James is fighting against the creatures who worship his own grandfather. The demon calls Tessa’s demon father a prince of hell, which is a fallen angel as powerful as Raziel. James is shocked at the revelation. He lets the remaining demons go in the name of his grandfather as long as they go back to their own dimension. They will do so as long as no one present tells any other Shadowhunters about what transpired at the waterfront. After they’re gone, Tatiana pulls up in her carriage searching for Grace. James begs Grace to come to the Institute with him. His father will grant her safe haven. Tatiana promises to produce evidence that Grace practices black magic and conjures demons—claims that would ruin her life and reputation—if she doesn’t come home with her. In the London Institute, Ragnor visits the teenagers-sans Cordelia and Alastair, and gives them a lead - Emmanuel Gast, who he thought might be able to dredge up information. A shocking news arrives when Barbara Lightwood is pronounced dead. At the Carstairs manor in Cornwall Gardens, Charles visits late at night. Cordelia, afraid that her brother might tell him of James' grandfather, eavesdrops on her brother and Charles' conversation and finds out that Alistair and Charles are gay and Charles was marrying Ariadne for power only. He was scared of rejection by the society and hence couldn't publicly display his sexual orientation unlike Anna. The next morning, James visits Cordelia and they, along with Matthew and Lucie pay a visit to Emmanuel Gast. However to their dismay he is already dead and Lucie gets locked in a room where she summons Emmanuel's ghost and finds out that he had raised the demon who was wreaking havoc over London. He even claimed that he knew her grandfather but she banished him before he could reveal much. Later they find splinters of wood with strange inscriptions. The four head back to the institute and lie to Will and Tessa about where they’ve been. They question Jessamine about whether ghosts can lie to see if Gast’s claims were true. They hear a ruckus outside. Charles has arrived in a carriage, bringing Grace and a bloodied Tatiana to the Institute. Once Tatiana is being treated by the Silent Brothers in the infirmary, Grace pulls James aside to talk to him. James takes Grace aside where she informs him that she is now engaged to Charles - who had broken off his engagement with Ariadne whilst she was unconscious. Grace demands her bracelet back from him and when he does return it back, he feels physical pain from the separation. He goes to the Blackfriars Bridge to relieve his heartache. Grace finds Matthew and tells him what has transpired. Before she leaves, she seemingly holds Matthew in place with words alone and kisses him. She threatens to tell James about this kiss if Matthew ever breathes a word of their conversation to anyone. Matthew later finds James sitting on the bridge and in a moment of recklessness James drinks from his flask, and loses consciousness due to exhaustion. The next morning when he wakes up, he finds the hurt gone, and feels oddly light. Cordelia meanwhile had accompanied Anna to the infirmary and seen her put her guard down and sob for Ariadne. Will and Tessa have gone with the Silent Brothers to transport Tatiana and the other remaining wounded Shadowhunters to the Silent City. Grace will be staying with the Bridgestocks near the City to be close to her mother. Cordelia receives a letter from Charlotte, answering her inquiries about her father. He’s actually already been questioned with the Mortal Sword, which Cordelia was sure would clear his name as it requires the holder to speak only truth. Unfortunately, the demon attack has been erased from his memory, so he cannot clear his name with the sword. Christopher arrives with the results and the group discovers that the shards of wood were pieces of a Pyxis. James informs them that the inscription were written in Old Persian and they realize that the demon was in fact a Mandikhor demon, which can produce smaller demons known as Khora demons. They form a plan to capture the demon but for that they would need a Pyxis. Cordelia recalls seeing one at Hypatia's salon and they decide to approach Anna for aid. James escorts Cordelia home and Sona presumes that they both were getting closer than before and James had marital intentions, to which Cordelia replies in the negative. Cordelia goes to Alastair to gently break the news of Charles’ new engagement to him. Alastair already knew and is not happy when Cordelia tells him she eavesdropped on his recent conversation with Charles. The next evening, James, Cordelia and Matthew accompany Anna to Hell Ruelle, where Hypatia is hosting a party. Anna has Cordelia wear a beautiful dress and James is stunned by her appearance. Lucie, Christopher and Thomas spy on the Enclave meeting and find out that Oliver, Barbara's ex-fiancee had passed away as well, seemingly due to the fact that Barbara had scratched him before her death. This shocked the entire Enclave as demon poison had never been contagious before, and London is placed immediately under quarantine. In Hell Ruelle, Anna seduces Hypatia and Cordelia performs in front of the gathering. James and Matthew are impressed, however they notice Charles entering the club. Matthew pushes the couple away and they hide in The Whispering Room, where James and Cordelia share a passionate kiss. The next morning the Merry Thieves, Lucie, and Cordelia take advantage of the fact that Will and Tessa are gone for day-patrols--an added precaution by the Clave, and empty the Pyxis by letting out a Palpis demon named Agliarept, so that they may use it to trap the Mandikhor. They kill the demon before he could sway them. Since they performed it in the Sanctuary, Magnus walks in on them inquiring about their actions. They explain to him, their plans of ridding the shadow world of the demon and Cordelia implores Magnus to help them out by casting an illusion over Tower Bridge, to protect and distract the mundanes. Magnus agrees. While they are going towards Tower Bridge, Magnus disproves James' theory of his grandfather being Belphegor. In 1900, Cirenworth Hall there was an argument between the Carstairs siblings regarding the possession of Cortana. Cordelia stated that she wanted to be a merciful hero and Alastair merely said that the sword belonged to him as he was the Carstairs heir. However, Cortana flew back into Cordelia's hand, "choosing its owner." The group goes to Tower Bridge to try to fight and capture the demon, but it breaks free of the Pyxis. During their fight against the Mandikhor, Cordelia is knocked into the Thames, but Lucie summons all the ghosts of London to her aid and they pull Cordelia out of the waters. When the demon departs, it speaks to James and tries to convince him to go to Belial's realm. Christopher is able to figure out the cure but couldn't find a way to make it work without a key illegal ingredient. James is able to locate where it may be found but before they could retrieve it, Christopher is attacked and poisoned himself. Cordelia's mother reveals that she's pregnant. While receiving treatment in the Silent City, James, Cordelia, and Matthew sneak in and talked with Christopher. Christopher, under the influence of the infection, grabs James's wrist, infecting him, while trying to warn him that he was in danger and all the attacks were about him. Meanwhile, Thomas searches the Chiswick grounds for the malos root and Lucie wanders off to a shed, where she spies on Grace Blackthorn. She notices Jesse Blackthorn's body, in a glass coffin, where he appears to be asleep. She hears Grace talking about her mother hurting James when suddenly a Namtar demon attacks her. It scoffs at her for removing James' bracelet and reaches out to destroy Jesse's coffin when Lucie reveals herself and helps Grace against the attack. Just as they are cornered and about to be injured, Jesse kills it with a sword. Lucie utters his name, astonishing Grace and befuddling her as to how Lucie could see Jesse. Lucie and Thomas Lightwood are able to retrieve the plant to finish the antidote for the poison Christopher had developed. Thomas and Alastair use Henry's lab to create the elixir and go to the Silent City to distribute it, which is a huge success. After fleeing the City, James realizes that the person behind the attacks had to be his demonic grandfather. He enters the shadow realm to confront and stop Belial once and for all. After some time, Cordelia uses Cortana to cut through the Portal to help him. Belial reveals that the Mandikhor demon was raised partially in the physical world and partially in his realm, making it immune to sunlight. They battle the Mandikhor, but are gravely outmatched until James used his connection to Belial's realm to summon a tornado and kill it. Belial then approaches James to proposition him once again, to which Cordelia ran him through with Cortana. With Belial being severely wounded, the realm collapses, and James and Cordelia return to their own realm. Having been poisoned and depleted his strength when reaching into the realm, James is dying when they came back. Matthew tries iratzes but they are not strong enough to save him. Thankfully, unbeknownst to him, the ghost of Jesse Blackthorn gave James his last breath — which had been preserved in his locket to one day resurrect himself—saving his life. Days later, while still recovering from his ordeal, James is visited by Grace. Grace pleads for his understanding of her actions and then tells him of her mother's involvement in necromancy and her plans against Nephilim. She forces her bracelet back on his wrist and asks that he go to Blackthorn Manor to destroy an automaton there. With the bracelet's control strengthened, James agrees and in the process of destroying it, burns down the manor. At the following council meeting, Tatiana accuses James of having orchestrated the Mandikhor attacks and then burning her house down to destroy her evidence. In an effort to protect him, Cordelia provides him with an alibi, claiming he had been with her the night before, tarnishing her reputation. While Tatiana is being arrested and sent to the Adamant Citadel for the dark magic items found in the rubble of her home, James proposes to Cordelia in order to save her reputation, with the plan to divorce in a year, and Cordelia agrees. At James and Cordelia's engagement party, Matthew drinks heavily in an attempt to drown his sorrows, realizing he is in love with Cordelia. Charles announces his engagement to Grace and later seeks out Alastair, who breaks up with him in a lone corridor with Cordelia there to support him. Because of his drunken state, Matthew reveals the rumors Alastair had spread about their parents to Thomas, in an effort to prevent their friendship, causing Thomas to threaten Alastair, who runs out of the room crying. Ariadne approaches Anna, telling her that she heard her when she spoke to her at the infirmary, making Ariadne realize that Anna still loved her. When Anna asserts her reputation of being a pessimist about love, Ariadne tells her that she will win her back. Grace emerges from the shadows and she and Lucie talk about resurrecting Jesse. Magnus Bane finds Matthew feeling desolate, as he notices the younger boy looking towards James and Cordelia dancing merrily. It is then that he reveals his attraction towards Cordelia and hints about the false marriage. Magnus is intrigued and decides that he needed to stay in London for a little while longer. Cordelia reflects on how drastically her life had changed since her arrival in London. James talks to her and tells her that he wishes she could be happy. He also states that the events of the whispering room had been a pretense. Cordelia is saddened but resolves to spend this one year with James happily. Meanwhile, in Chiswick manor, Tatiana, who is now being banished to the Adamant Citadel, visits her son's coffin. She finds Belial waiting for her, and he says that he will rise much earlier than the Nephilim assumed. He also states that since Tatiana was now in the Adamant Citadel, they will strike at the heart of the shadowhunters-their Adamas. Saying this he vanishes again, leaving Tatiana satisfied. ===== The play told the story of the Spanish bullfighter Manolete.
