Confused and frightened, Anna runs away in her underwear and stumbles across her childhood home, where she finds some clothes and wonders whether she might be turning into a Wildling herself.

Anna refuses to take it and escapes. Ray agrees to drive Anna north into the forest, where she hopes they can find the Northern Lights. The two have sex that night, Ray assuring her that he is not concerned about the changes in her body when her claws have grown longer and there is hair on her back. The next day, Anna finds that claws have grown on her feet as well which Ray compliments. Ray is injured by a group of hunters led by Gabriel. He says he must find his way back to the car, but Anna runs the other way and leaves him. Months later, the hunters corner Anna in the forest.

He attempts to perform a c-section on her to claim the unborn child. If the child is a girl, he promises her that he will name her Anna. Anna fights off the drugs and kills "Daddy" by opening her lower jaw wide to tear his throat out before collapsing.

Although they see Anna on the other side of a lake, they allow her to escape into the wilderness. Weeks later, Anna has traveled far and is finally able to see the Northern Lights. Anna is now fully transformed into a Wildling with black skin and black fur. In her hands, she holds her newborn child. Far in the distance, she hears the call of another Wildling. ===== Tadaomi Shirotani suffers from obsessive–compulsive disorder that manifests as severe mysophobia. He meets psychotherapist Riku Kurose, who recommends exposure and response prevention therapy and instructs Shirotani to write a list of ten actions he is unable to do: Kurose tells Shirotani he will be cured once he completes the items on the list. Shirotani makes steady progress on the list, until Kurose abruptly suspends their sessions; when pressed, he admits he has fallen in love with Shirotani, and felt it would be inappropriate to continue as his therapist. Shirotani nevertheless wishes to continue their sessions, and they resume therapy while simultaneously initiating a sexual relationship. Through a flashback, it transpires that the root cause of Shirotani's mysophobia is a childhood trauma of witnessing his father having sex: the self-loathing he experienced after becoming aroused by the sight of his father, combined with the shame of being caught masturbating to the incident, prompted him to associate physical contact and intimacy with feelings of disgust. As Kurose and Shirotani's relationship intensifies, Kurose notes that Shirotani is simultaneously repulsed and sexually aroused by his advances. Kurose reveals that he is a sadist who derives pleasure from triggering Shirotani's mysophobia, and has intuited that Shirotani is a masochist who derives pleasure from the very acts that disgust him. Shirotani rejects Kurose, and they do not speak for many months. After a chance encounter, Kurose and Shirotani reconcile their relationship. Shirotani reveals the tenth item on his list – to be patted on the head, an act he associates with his father – and admits that he loves Kurose. Shirotani finds he is now comfortable enough to reciprocate Kurose sexually. In an epilogue, Kurose quits his clinic job to study for a doctorate in psychology. Shirotani, having completed the list, has significantly alleviated the symptoms of his mysophobia. Kurose admits that he was lying when said that completing the list would cure Shirotani's mysophobia, and proposes a second list to make amends: a list of ten actions that Shirotani wishes for Kurose to do. ===== The film follows three friends, Ashwanee (Yoosuf Shafeeu), Ahsan (Ahmed Saeed) and Ajwad (Mohamed Manik) who are single and in their forties.

During the military exercises, their artillery battery, having successfully completed the task, was destroyed by the enemy, and the heroes, as ordered by the command, are seemingly dying. Thus, until the end of assembly, they remain in reserve for a few more days. Having missed the train to the city at the station, the heroes, having become "spirits from the other world", decide to finish the war game. After leaving the training field of battle, the men begin a transcendental journey: they get to a city populated by only beautiful and solitary women. Having sailed across the river from this temptation, the detachment spends the night on the island and, taking the traveling chemist with them, end up in a retirement home, where by a clerk's mistake they are taken for a team of technicians from the repair construction office. In the retirement home, the feeble-minded old lady mistakes Herman Kostin for her son Fedya, who disappeared during the war. By the will of the circumstances, Herman-Fedya is forced to play this role for several hours, during which he sums up the not very pleasant aspects of his life. Late in the evening, seven travelers with all the elderly inhabitants are trying to observe the mysterious planet parade. After spending the night in an open field near the village of Guskovo and traveling all the way to the city on foot, the team of the men part, realizing that further men's games military assembly and exercises will not take place anymore, that the last stop has been placed in their departing youth, and most likely they will not meet again. Like planets with different orbits, they only met for a moment and lined up in a "planet parade" only to fly apart forever. ===== In the year 20XX, manga and anime culture has been gradually disappearing from Akihabara. This is the result of a mysterious malicious virus that infects the worlds of various fictional works and destroys them, along with anyone's memories of them. Standing against this are the members of the Rabbit Shed Shop café, who possess the ability to travel into these worlds in order to stop the virus. ===== At Robin Ellacott's marriage to Matthew Cunliffe, Cormoran Strike's capture of the Shacklewell Ripper the night before is already widely known, except by Robin. When Strike tells her that he had been trying to contact her during the week, she realizes that Matthew had deleted Strike's messages, which results in a serious row between the new spouses. Before Strike leaves, Robin accepts his offer of working as a salaried partner in the detective agency. One year later, Strike has grown his detective agency to the point where he needs to hire more investigators. He receives an unsolicited visit from Billy Knight, a young man with a history of mental illness who claims to have witnessed a murder and the burial of the body in woodland some years before, but is unable to provide any details before he runs out of Strike's office. While trying to establish Billy's identity, Strike meets Billy's older brother Jimmy and Jimmy's girlfriend Flick, radical left-wing activists who claim Billy is unstable and unreliable. Strike's meeting with Jimmy draws the attention of Jasper Chiswell, the Minister for Culture, whom Strike knew from investigating the combat death of his son Freddie. Chiswell has been blackmailed by Jimmy and hires Strike to investigate; he identifies Geraint Winn, the husband of a political enemy, as Jimmy's likely partner. Chiswell does not reveal what he is accused of, but claims that what he did was legal "at the time". Robin then goes undercover in Chiswell's office to carry out surveillance on Geraint, whose wife has a neighboring office, although the undercover assignment places more strain on her marriage. She meets Chiswell's family who works for him: daughter Isabella; illegitimate son Raphael; and second wife Kinvara. By bugging Geraint's office, Robin discovers that Geraint has been embezzling money from his wife's charities, and Chiswell uses this knowledge to stop Geraint's blackmail. Chiswell summons Strike and Robin to a house that he keeps in the city for business, perhaps intending to fire them, but on arrival, they find Chiswell's body, apparently dead from suffocation and an overdose of anti-depressants. The Metropolitan Police rule his death a suicide, but Isabella is convinced that Kinvara is responsible, again hiring Strike to investigate. Strike believes that the mysterious blackmail is connected to Chiswell's death and eventually learns that Chiswell and Jack Knight, Jimmy and Billy's late father, built gallows for export before the European Union banned the export of torture and execution equipment from member states. Two of these gallows were sold to Zimbabwe, where one was stolen by rebels and used in the murder of a British teenager. The gallows could be traced to Chiswell because Billy had carved the nearby White Horse of Uffington into it. Meanwhile, Robin continues to struggle with post-traumatic stress disorder a year after her encounter with the Shacklewell Ripper, while Matthew continues to interfere with her work. But Robin separates from Matthew and moves out when she finds proof that he has been having a long-term affair throughout most of their relationship. She intends to seek a divorce when she can afford it and moves in first with her friend Vanessa Ekwensi, then with Strike's friends Nick and Ilsa Herbert. Strike counsels her, drawing on his own experience of losing a leg. Strike's ex-girlfriend Charlotte Ross, now married and pregnant, reappears and unsuccessfully pursues Strike. Strike learns that Chiswell wrote Kinvara out of his will and bequeathed everything to his ten-year-old grandson, while allowing Kinvara only to live on the family estate for the rest of her life. However, Chiswell carelessly omitted certain items from the will, including a diamond necklace that is the family's last item of real value, meaning that legally such items may be Kinvara's. Strike suspects there are other items of value Chiswell overlooked. He is drawn to a supposedly-worthless painting titled Mare Mourning and discovers that it may be a lost George Stubbs artwork depicting a mare mourning a foal that died of lethal white syndrome. If its provenance were to be established, it would probably be worth over ₤20 million. Strike can then identify Chiswell's killer: Raphael, who had had never been accepted by the family but had worked for an art dealer. Raphael had tipped off Flick about a cleaning job at Chiswell's, expecting that she would find out about the gallows sales and tell Jimmy, who then demanded 50% of the profits. Raphael also seduced and conspired with Kinvara to kill Chiswell; when Flick learned that Chiswell had inadvertently found out about the affair and also had begun to investigate Mare Mourning, Raphael killed Chiswell at once. Kinvara confesses, but Raphael sends Robin texts purporting to be from Matthew, luring her into a trap. He keeps her alive to interrogate her about the investigation before disappearing; Robin stalls for time by outlining everything in detail, even describing his un-executed plan to kill Kinvara. Strike realizes Raphael's duplicity when he notices that the text messages to Robin came from a disposable mobile phone used in the blackmail case. The police trace the phone and raid the houseboat on which Raphael has Robin, arresting him just as he has decided to terminate her and flee. In the aftermath, Strike, Robin and Isabella meet Billy to discuss the "murder" he witnessed. Isabella and Strike reveal that Billy was drugged by Freddie and Jimmy. Billy then saw Freddie choke a young Raphael until he passed out, followed by the burial of a small horse that Freddie had killed in a separate act of cruelty, which Strike's crew has dug up. Strike and Robin then leave together. ===== This novel centers around NUMA (National Underwater Marine Agency) crew leaders Kurt Austin and Joe Zavala.

Her husband Chris owns a failing mechanic shop. They have a ten-year-old daughter, Carly. Chris' friend tries to talk him into robbing Diego Garcia, a powerful drug lord. Chris turns him down, but Garcia has already discovered his involvement and orders his men to make an example of him. Riley and Chris take Carly out to a carnival for her birthday, since no one showed up to her party due to the intervention of a stuck-up suburban mom named Peg. As the family walks to the car, Diego's men gun down Riley's husband and daughter in a drive-by shooting. She is badly wounded but survives. Despite her injuries, Riley is able to positively identify the shooters. A senior Detective named Beltran warns his younger partner Carmichael about a previous detective who was murdered after trying to make a case against Diego, and warns him to "let what's going to happen happen." Prior to the preliminary hearing, Riley is visited by the perpetrators' lawyer. The lawyer unsuccessfully tries to bribe her with money, but uses her anti-psychotic medication to paint her as an unreliable witness. Judge Stevens, secretly on the cartel's payroll, declares there is insufficient evidence to allow the perpetrators to stand trial and dismisses the case, while the prosecuting lawyers do nothing. Outraged, Riley tries to attack her family's killers, but is subdued and ordered to be held at a psychiatric ward. En route, she escapes and vanishes to multiple places in the world to train herself in combat for revenge. Five years later, Beltran and Carmichael arrive at the carnival and find the three shooters hanging from a Ferris wheel, having been killed by Riley (in the opening scene, Riley repeatedly stabbed one of the shooters in a car before shooting him in the head). The killings attract the attention of FBI agent Lisa Inman. Inman explains to Beltran and Carmichael that before vanishing 5 years earlier, Riley robbed the bank where she used to work. She has recently returned, and robbed a gun store to obtain various assault rifles and ammunition. Riley subdues the now-retired Judge Stevens by tying him up, nailing his hands to a table, and wrapping him in explosive cord before obliterating him with a remote-control bomb, having already killed the defense and prosecution lawyers involved, which she drowned the defense lawyers in his swimming pool and immolated the prosecution lawyers. Inman, Carmichael, and Beltran decide to tell the media about Riley, causing a debate on social media between those who see her as a hero and those who see her as a criminal. Meanwhile, Diego is being threatened by the cartel he partners with for the lost shipments of drugs caused by Riley's action. Riley heads to a business that is a front for Diego's money laundering, killing most of his men. Diego realizes that Riley is responsible for his recent shipments going missing, and resolves to kill her. Inman discovers that Riley has been living on Skid Row, owing to recent changes to crime patterns in the area. She finds Riley's van, which is filled with the stolen weapons, and learns that the people there see Riley as their guardian angel for keeping them safe, especially those lives near the locations where Garcia conducts his illegal operations as they are fed up with his gang activities. Diego rigs his drug warehouse to kill Riley, expecting she will come to dismantle it but she escapes the explosion using a sewer, follows his henchmen to Diego's home, and kills more of his men. When Diego's young daughter interrupts her as she confronts Diego, Riley hesitates, which allows Diego to wound her and escape. Inman calls Carmichael to Skid Row to wait for Riley with the intention to talk her out and capture Garcia and his gang along with their informant. Carmichael, secretly on Diego's payroll, kills Inman to cover his track and notifies Diego of Riley's likely destination. Riley shows up to Peg's house, punches her old non-friend unconscious, has a nasty conversation about her failed marriage and leaves Peg tied up while she steals Peg's SUV and drives away. Riley returns to Skid Row, which is swarming with Diego's men. She manages to kill several of them including Diego's second-in-command, and also finds Inman's body. Using Inman's phone, she contacts the media, reveals her location and exposes Carmicheal as a dirty cop, inviting both the media and the LAPD. She confronts Diego, stalling him long enough for the police to arrive. Diego, thinking Carmichael betrayed him, shoots and kills him and runs, only to be beaten down by Riley. Beltran comes and asks Riley to stand down and assure her that Diego will surely be arrested and rot in prison with no hope of bribing his way out but Riley doesn't trust him. Surrounded by police with no hope of escape and underestimating Riley's resolve to end his life, Diego laughs maniacally at her, telling her that she will spend more time in prison than him, only for Riley to reply that he is "not going to prison" and shoot Diego, splattering most of his head on the wall behind him. She is shot by the police, but Beltran orders them to cease fire, and Riley once again manages to escape. Beltran finds Riley critically wounded at her family's gravestone. He brings her to the hospital, despite Riley's expressed desire to die at the family grave-site. Beltran later visits her while she's in police custody at a hospital to stand trial for multiple homicides, telling her that there are many who agree with what she did, and slips her the key to her handcuffs, allowing Riley to escape again. ===== Stanley Duke works in advertising, and had been married to an actress, Nowell. He is now married to Susan, with whom he has a complicated relationship, seemingly because of her mother, Lady Daly. His son, Steve, suffers a mental breakdown, and Stanley takes him to two psychiatrists. The first, Dr. Collings, is female and too liberated for Stanley; and the second, Dr. Nash, seems to be more interested in drinking than helping his son. A doctor's suggestion that all women are mad becomes an increasing obsession with Stanley (in parallel with Steve's increasing insanity) culminating in outbursts of offensive misogynistic bigotry. Various ironic episodes of middle-class London life - including a successful dinner party; a less successful drunken evening with Nowell's second husband; Stanley's removal from his job; and others - all drive continuing reassessments of the characters. The ending floats a possibility that all women are in fact terrifyingly sane. ===== Adam Petrizelli is a high school senior whose father left him and his mother Beth. Beth now dates Paul, whom Adam dislikes. He makes plans to go to culinary school in the fall. In school, Adam sees a hippie girl, Rebecca in the hallways, and he appears to be the only one who sees her. He goes to chemistry class where he begins to hear voices, see what looks like a black cloud surrounding the class, and Rebecca speaking to him. Everything in the room appears to him as though it is floating, and Rebecca tells him they need to go. In the chaos, Adam accidentally knocks over a vial of acidic chemical that burns his partner’s arm. He falls to the ground and experiences an apparent psychotic break, while the school security guard has to hold him down. Adam is diagnosed with schizophrenia and is expelled from school. He enters a medical trial to treat his condition, but he continues to hear voices—most notably a deep threatening voice—and has three frequent visions: Rebecca, who acts as the positive voice; Joaquin, the best friend; and "The Bodyguard", a man in a jumpsuit who appears whenever Adam is feeling threatened. Paul has also hidden the knives in the house for safety. Beth and Paul take Adam to transfer to St. Agatha’s Catholic School. They meet Sister Catherine for an interview, which Adam sees as the whole room being on fire. Adam is accepted to the school, but his condition is not made known immediately. After the interview, Adam goes to the bathroom. He finds the school’s valedictorian, Maya Arnaz, making a secret transaction with another student, Ted, as she has been tutoring him in secret. They see Adam, and Rebecca and Joaquin appear to comment on Maya as she approaches Adam. She just tells Adam not to say anything about what he saw, and he agrees. Maya later approaches him again, and the visions can see that he is attracted to her. She explains that she helps the other students as a side hustle, keeping it secret from the staff. After she leaves, Adam takes his meds to keep the visions from continuing to pester him. With his grades already failing into his second week of school, Adam seeks Maya out for tutoring help. She even meets Beth and Paul to make it legitimate, and they agree to pay her to help Adam. He takes Maya to see his room where they exchange banter and she samples some of his cooking before they get to work in studying. Beth later drives her home. Adam’s grades improve, and as he continues to take the pills, he keeps the visions at bay. He even gets back to cooking, which makes Beth happy. He also visits Father Perez at the school for confession, even though he doesn’t consider himself a religious person. One morning, Adam wakes up to peace and quiet, thinking things are turning around for the better. To celebrate his improvement, he invites Maya to hang out, which she accepts. While they are out, one of the bullies from Adam’s old school recognizes him with his friends. When the bully mocks Adam and tries to touch Maya, she slaps him hard across the face before he and the others just leave. When Maya asks Adam what that was about, he only tells her that he got expelled from his last school over a fight. Adam tries to hang out with her again and later goes to try and find her at her house and comes to a poorer neighborhood where he meets her father and two younger brothers. Adam cooks them dinner, but when Maya comes home, she thinks he’s doing it out of charity and lashes out at him. After he apologizes, Maya tells him how she got caught and is worried about making extra money. He promises to help keep her as his tutor and still get paid. Maya brings Adam to a big kitchen to test out his cooking. His food proves too spicy for Maya, but when he tries it, he thinks it’s fine. It turns out that a side effect of the pill affects his taste, as well as a number of other unpleasant things. This prompts Adam to start throwing away the pills into the front yard as Beth thinks he is still taking them. Making things harder is that Beth and Paul announce that they are having a baby. Adam hears the deep voice express insecurity over a new kid that might be more normal, as well as seeing his mom appear as a distorted image. This also makes the visions come back to annoy him. It almost causes him to have another psychotic break at school, but he walks out even as Maya follows and tries to find out what’s wrong. Adam takes Maya to an outdoor screening of her favorite movie, Never Been Kissed. Towards the end, Rebecca and Joaquin try to encourage Adam to make his move, but the deep voice starts to prey on his insecurity. He inadvertently grabs Maya’s hand, but she wants to know what is going on with him. He admits to having insecurity over his mom having another kid with Paul, but after he apologizes, he asks Maya to prom, even though she’s against the idea of it. She accepts, and they have their first kiss. His work gets so much better that he writes an essay that is accepted to be read at graduation. Adam finds Paul writing an email and finds it suspicious. When he gets to school, Sister Catherine tells him that they learned about his condition and the incident at his last school, and instead of an expulsion, they are just suspending him temporarily. Adam thinks Paul sent them this in the email and he lashes out at him. Suspension also means he can’t go to prom, but he defies everyone’s orders and goes anyway. He picks Maya up and is amazed by how she looks, but even as they dance and try to have a good time, Adam is plagued by the deep voice, as well as Sister Catherine finding him and trying to kick him out. As things start to blur around him, Adam pushes the nun to the ground and runs away. He runs to the top bleachers and falls over the ledge when he sees the black cloud surrounding him. Adam is taken to the hospital and wakes up to see Beth and Paul. Maya soon shows up, but Adam becomes too overwhelmed by the presence of the visions, so he starts to yell at Rebecca and The Bodyguard to go away, then starts yelling at everyone to leave as he breaks down. He is later expelled from St. Agatha’s and placed in a psych ward. Father Perez visits him despite an earlier encounter where Adam was rude to him when he tried to offer advice. After Father Perez says that he was not aware of what Adam was struggling with, Adam apologizes for his behavior, and agrees to join Father Perez in prayer. Beth visits Adam in the hospital and gives him a printed copy of the email that Paul sent to St. Agatha’s. Contrary to what Adam thought, Paul was expressing his support for his stepson and thought suspending him was cruel, saying that they must show more care for Adam’s condition. Realizing how much Paul cares about him, Adam runs to catch up with him and Beth, and he hugs Paul for the first time, making it clear that he will be better in accepting him as a new father figure. On graduation day, Beth and Paul take Adam to the ceremony, where, despite Sister Catherine’s attempt to speak up, Father Perez shows support for Adam. The deep voiced black cloud tries to get Adam, but he gathers the courage to address the student body calmly. He recites his essay in which he discusses both his condition and battle with schizophrenia, declaring that he now knows that his life will not be defined by his illness. After he leaves the auditorium, Maya runs to catch up with him. Adam apologizes to Maya for not telling her the truth about his illness from the beginning, at which point they express their love for each other. Joaquin then encourages Adam to kiss Maya, and he finally does. Adam gets accepted to the culinary school he wanted to go to, and becomes a good big brother to Beth's and Paul’s child. Paul also shows more dedication to Adam, even seeming to notice when Adam is hearing the voices in the closet. ===== After the unexpected death of Steven Lang (Olyphant), his widow, Margaret (Tomei) and son, Marcus (Plummer), struggle to cope with their grief. ===== The three games are video game adaptions of the first three Indiana Jones films.

When the Board hears about Zoya's lucky charm they decide to hire her as their Official Lucky Mascot. Nikhil is displeased with this and tells Zoya to leave immediately.

Despite being an easy match, Robin purposely loses making everyone believe Zoya is indeed their Lucky Mascot and they cannot win without her. After being made a Goddess for an Ad shoot, Zoya comes to realise that even if Team India wins The World Cup, people would believe it is because of her rather than Nikhil's hardwork. Realising that both Robin and his Uncle have been using her to oust Nikhil from captaincy, Zoya breaks the contract and refuses to come to the Final Match between India and Sri Lanka. Zoya apologizes to Nikhil and wishes him luck for the next day. The next morning, the BCCI calls Zoya a traitor and hundreds of people gather outside her house pelting stones.

Most humans have fled the planet, to live on a space station near Io, a moon of Jupiter. Sam Walden is one of the few humans remaining on Earth. She lives alone at high altitude, where the air is still breathable, trying to raise bees that can survive in the atmosphere. Her intent is to use the bees to eventually clean the air via the pollination of oxygen-producing plants.

As a result, they drive into a city blanketed by the toxic atmosphere to obtain the helium required for the journey. After finding the helium, Sam visits an art museum alone. Micah rushes after her, knowing her oxygen tank is running low. Instead of switching to a new tank, Sam pulls off her mask and breathes the toxic air hoping to survive. She takes several breaths, as the scene fades to black. Micah travels alone to the spaceship because Sam has decided to stay behind. Like the new queen bee in her colony, the changed environment is not toxic to Sam. The film ends with her standing on a beach alone before being joined by a young child. A voice over of a letter from Sam to Micah tells how beautiful the Earth is, how those who have left the planet will have learned to fear it, and that they are waiting for them to return. ===== Harper is weary of life in New York City and tired of her job working for a PR firm.

She is helped by her devoted husband, Eric, a London businessman, an elderly French maid, and Paul, a close family friend. Then Alison's younger sister, Robin, returns. Robin takes Alison shopping and suggests she see a specialist about her eyes. Alison says it is not her eyes that are faulty but her brain. A doctor has told her that her mind has seen something it did not like and now refuses to see at all. In the family's town house Robin is very flirty and appears to mean to seduce or somehow punish Eric. She even jokes about this in front of Alison and Eric. Eric is furious and grabs her by the hair at the back of her head. But Robin stabs him with sewing scissors. Alison cannot see this but knows the mood has changed and asks what Robin is wearing. When her sister does not answer she touches her knee and feels the skimpy nightdress and leaves the room. Later, Alison tells Robin she sometimes thinks she may recall the event that caused her sight loss. She woke in the night, knowing she was about to give birth to her second child. Her husband was not with her. She left the bedroom and heard Robin crying. After this, she had a fall, but cannot remember anything else till waking in hospital. Alison and Robin go to the family's country house to supervise repairs that their mother has cancelled. The mother reveals that as children Alison used to take the things Robin held dear. She tells Alison to remember who introduced her to Eric. Alison retorts that it was "just an adolescent crush", implying that Robin had liked Eric first. In town, Eric has dinner with Paul at a restaurant, and Paul says he likes Robin. He then implies Eric has had an affair with a Spanish woman. This is dismissed by Eric: "That's over. Anyway, she was Peruvian...don't talk about women as if they were wine. It is a sign of youth." They agree to drive to the country to surprise Alison and Robin. On the drive down Eric suggests Paul might win Robin over by beating her and using a belt on her. "Then when she has had enough, make love to her." Paul guesses that Eric has been Robin's lover in the past. Eric says she was 17 and living with them on holidays from boarding school. Paul says she must have seen Eric as a father figure as she never knew her own father. Eric says he saw her grow up and creepily adds that he saw the "apples filling out". Paul says he then "plucked the fruits". Paul seems worried and says "what really happened?" Eric says "ask her." On a beach we find out that Robin has been married and has left her husband in the U.S. Her mother thinks she now has gigolos, and we see her flirting with two young men on the beach. Alison defends her by saying they are just young men with little money. In another scene, Alison asks Robin if she was in love with Eric and Robin says unexpectedly "I hated him." She explains this as the fact that Eric was taking her sister away from her by marrying her. Alison says Robin had everything as a child and was ravishing as a girl; Robin asks her "you never knew how your ravishing sister was ravished on your wedding night, did you?" This was a middle-aged man she met on the beach. She says she cried and wanted to tell Alison all about it but couldn't. The two men arrive at the country house. Robin causes a scene stealing black currants with the children. Eric is cross with her, but Alison defends her saying she has been troubled. Later, Paul and Robin share a picnic and kiss. He asks why she won't marry him, and she says he does not love her. She describes intense desire, and Paul asks if that is how she wants Eric. Robin does not answer but says she worshiped him and he "took pity on me and gave me a crumb". But clearly she is messed up by this, so it was not, as she puts it (sarcastically?) "kind". Paul finds Alison smoking in the garden that night. He asks her advice on his relationship with Robin, and Alison suggests he cuts himself free, or love can be "like committing suicide". Next day in the kitchen, Alison is chopping vegetables. Robin thinks Eric and Paul should not be out together. She says Eric thinks all women are "bitches or objects of pity - like you". Alison cuts her finger and sucks it. Robin adds "he likes you blind. It's the only way you can hold him." Alison grapples with Robin, who then flees. Eric comes in and offers to take Alison away, but Alison says she won't run away. Robin has taken a horse and is trying to leave, but the household surrounds her. The horse clips Alison, who falls, but from the grass, she tells a concerned Eric that she is alright. The horse then runs into bushes and Robin falls off. She appears unconscious, and Eric carries her into the house. Eric lays Robin on a bed, and Robin comes round. He has his hands on her shoulders and her neck. She starts to cry. Alison comes into the house downstairs, rubbing her eyes. She hears crying like she heard years ago. She sees her memory: her sister and Eric in bed and Eric telling her to go to America while Robin begs not to be sent away. Their upper bodies are clearly naked. In the present, Alison is still wearing her dark glasses but can see her hands. She goes to the door of the bedroom and sees a blurred shape of Eric, who sat on the bed above her sister. The mother comes upstairs and tells Alison to lie down, but Alison says "leave me alone". In the bedroom, Eric embraces Robin's body, and Robin kisses the palm of his hand. Then she comes to her senses and pushes him away saying she won't be second best. She suggests he leave Alison and the children but clearly doubts that he will. Alison overhears and goes to her own bedroom. Eric is furious with Robin's challenge to him and starts to strangle her. He releases her, and she laughs at him and then turns away and cries as he runs out of the room. Alison can see her children in the garden and is crying. After a possible attempt to seduce Eric that evening, she gets into bed sadly. The next day, she is arranging phenobarbitone tablets on the table to form a letter 'A'. The others play tennis outside. A taxi arrives to take the children to see their cousins. Alison says goodbye. Her mother suspects something, and won't let Alison return upstairs, saying lunch is nearly ready. She reads a sci-fi book out loud while Alison knits. Eventually, Alison says she's had enough and goes to her room. Everyone meets for lunch, including Alison, but Robin is late. She arrives with a bunch of roses which she places on Alison's lap, then says "happy anniversary." Paul expresses surprise, and Robin says Eric didn't let him know because Eric has forgotten the anniversary. She then sits on Paul's knee and says they are getting married. Everyone is tense. Robin walks over to Eric and says "aren't you going to kiss the bride?" He seizes her around the waist and buries his head in her stomach. He is crying. Paul walks out. Robin looks over her shoulder toward her sister, and both she and Eric see that Alison can see them. Her face is full of shock and distress. Alison walks into the garden after Paul, and then smiles at the sky and the sunlight. ===== Zamindar Tirumala Rao's (Gummadi) wife Mahalakshmamma (Pushpavalli) and his sister Nancharamma (Suryakantham) deliver male children on the same day.

Frank and assistant superintendent Pam Gluckin have overseen major improvements in the district, with Roslyn High School becoming the fourth-ranked public school in the country. The school's performance stimulates the local economy, reaping rewards for school board president and real estate broker Bob Spicer. Beloved by students and parents, Frank claims to have lost his wife several years ago, and rejects advances from some of the local mothers. Attending a conference in Las Vegas, he begins an affair with his former student Kyle Contreras. Student reporter Rachel Bhargava is writing an article for the Roslyn school paper about a skywalk the school plans to construct, and Frank blithely encourages her to treat her article as any top journalist would. Rachel investigates the project, to Pam's irritation, and notices irregularities in the district's finances. It is revealed that Pam has a fraudulent district expense card, which she encourages her niece Jenny, a district clerk, to use. When Pam's son uses the card to shop for thousands of dollars' worth of construction materials for her home renovation, Bob is alerted by a relative working at the store. Bob and the school board confront Pam, realizing she has embezzled at least $250,000 in taxpayer funds. Frank persuades them to handle the matter quietly, detailing the consequences a public scandal would have on the school and community. They agree to conceal the embezzlement, forcing Pam to pay restitution and resign; the board announces her abrupt "retirement." Convincing district auditor Phil Metzger to falsify the financial records, Frank appoints him as Pam's temporary replacement. Frank transfers Jenny to a less visible "special utilities" role, threatening to expose her own misuse of funds when she attempts to implicate him. Rachel continues her investigation, uncovering evidence of the embezzlement in the form of supply orders that were never fulfilled and massive consulting fees paid to unknown companies, including Pam's husband's car dealership. She finds an annual expense of $803,000 to Wordpower Tech and visits its listed address, which she discovers is a Manhattan apartment. A man answers the door and Rachel leaves, but she and Frank spot each other when he arrives and enters the same apartment. The man is Tom Tuggiero, Frank's husband, and Rachel realizes Wordpower Tech is a front created by Frank, a co-conspirator in the embezzlement. Frank later warns Rachel of the potential fallout for exposing the story. Phil informs Frank of an incriminating expense: Frank used district funds on first-class tickets to fly himself and Kyle to London. Frank threatens to place blame squarely on Phil for failing to catch Pam's scheme and taking part in the cover-up. Phil agrees to keep quiet, but Rachel publishes her story in the school paper, exposing Frank's key role in the embezzlement. Insisting he acted in the school's best interest, Frank pleads with Bob not to confirm the scandal until the school budget is approved, but Bob and the school board report the cover-up in its entirety. Pam, Jenny, and Phil are arrested; when the authorities threaten to prosecute her family, Pam agrees to testify against Frank and turns over evidence of the scheme. Tom is informed of Frank's second life with Kyle, and Rachel becomes the school paper's editor- in-chief. Frank resigns, flees to Nevada with tens of thousands of dollars in cash, and moves in with Kyle in a house Frank bought for him. He is eventually arrested, returned to New York, and convicted. In prison, Frank fantasizes about being back at Roslyn, where he is congratulated for making the school #1 in the country. An epilogue reveals that Frank was convicted of embezzling $2.2 million and sentenced to 4 to 12 years in prison. Pam, who pled guilty to embezzling $4.3 million and testified against Frank, was sentenced to 3 to 9 years in prison. A total of $11 million was embezzled, the largest school theft in American history. Due to an oversight in state pension regulations, Frank is still slated to receive his teacher's pension of $173,495.04 per year. ===== In the later stages of World War II, ten-year-old Johannes "Jojo" Betzler joins the Deutsches Jungvolk (junior section of the Hitler youth). Jojo is an innocent boy but heavily indoctrinated with the Nazi ideals (manifested in his imaginary friend, Adolf, a supportive and buffoonish version of Adolf Hitler). On the day of his first training camp run by Captain Klenzendorf, he is given the derisive nickname "Jojo Rabbit" by the other children after refusing to kill a rabbit to prove his worthiness. Pepped up by Adolf, he returns to prove his bravery, stealing a Stielhandgranate and throwing it without supervision. The grenade explodes at his feet, leaving him scarred and limping. Jojo's mother Rosie coerces Klenzendorf into ensuring that Jojo is included and given responsibilities. Jojo is given small tasks such as spreading propaganda leaflets throughout the town, and collecting scrap for the war effort. Alone at home one day, Jojo discovers Elsa Korr, a teenage Jewish girl and his late sister's former classmate, hiding upstairs. Jojo is both terrified and aggressive towards Elsa, who easily outwits and overpowers the young boy's attempts at guile and aggression. The two are left in a stalemate as the revelation that Rosie hiding Elsa would lead to Rosie's execution, and neither Jojo nor Elsa is willing to tell Rosie that they know for fear of what would happen next. Jojo continues to speak to Elsa, doing his best to uncover her "Jew secrets" so he can write a book about Jews for Klenzendorf. Elsa is both saddened and amused by the doctrine that Jojo believes. When she tells Jojo about her fiancé Nathan, Jojo forges a letter from Nathan claiming to have found someone else. When he sees her hurt by this, he quickly puts together a retraction. Jojo begins acting out with his mother, angry at her seeming lack of patriotism. Rosie opposes the war and the Nazi doctrine, openly mourns the public hangings of those who resist the Nazis, and she espouses her belief that positivity and optimism are the best ways to be free of oppression. Rosie also tells Elsa that Jojo is still innocent and laments the doctrine that he believes, which makes it impossible for her to reveal Elsa to him. Meanwhile, Jojo, who is warming up to Elsa, argues with an increasingly hostile Adolf about his patriotism. Jojo spots his mother leaving a "free Germany" message in town. Jojo and Elsa are alone in the house when the Gestapo stops by to search the house, with Klenzendorf in tow. After a volley of "Heil Hitlers" they ransack the place, finally going upstairs where Elsa poses as Jojo's late sister Inge and produces Inge's papers. Klenzendorf inspects them and quizzes Elsa on her birthday, confirming its authenticity. After the Gestapo leave, a shaken Elsa reveals that she got the date wrong and that Klenzendorf had covered for her. Elsa is convinced that the Gestapo are aware of the deception. Later on, Jojo finds Rosie hanged in the public square. He returns home and tries to stab Elsa, but breaks down in tears. With the Allies closing in, the civilian population (including the Hitler Youth) are armed to defend the city. Jojo runs into his friend Yorki, who tells him Hitler has committed suicide. Despondent, Jojo hides until the battle is won, with the Americans occupying the city. As he wanders the city, he is seized by Russian soldiers alongside a wounded Klenzendorf. After a brief conversation, Klenzendorf tells Jojo to look after his sister, then tears off Jojo's Hitler Youth coat and denounces him as a Jew to ensure that the soldiers do not execute him. The soldiers drag Jojo away as Klenzendorf is executed by firing squad. Jojo runs home and, to stop Elsa from leaving, tells her Germany won the war. Recognising her despair, he recites a new letter from Nathan, claiming that he and Jojo have figured out a way to smuggle her to Paris. Elsa confesses that Nathan died of tuberculosis the previous year. Jojo tells her he loves her, and she tells him she loves him like a "younger brother". A disheveled Adolf angrily confronts Jojo for siding with Elsa, and Jojo kicks him out the window. Outside, Elsa sees American soldiers and realizes the Allies have won the war. She slaps Jojo's face for lying, and then they dance in the street. ===== In the three years between 1984 and 1987, Philip has become a full-time travel agent running an expanded Dupont Circle Travel, Henry attends boarding school and plays hockey, and Paige attends George Washington University in D.C. and is a Soviet agent in training (and also is practicing Russian by watching a Soviet movie with Elizabeth and Claudia). Stan has married Renee and has moved out of FBI counterintelligence except for the now-married Sofia and Gennadi (whom he still handles with his ex-partner Dennis Aderholt, the new head of counterintelligence), while Elizabeth is exhausted and resentful from handling a full KGB case load nine weeks before the Reagan-Gorbachev summit in D.C. (December 8–10, 1987), with most of her work focused on the summit. Claudia informs Elizabeth that she has been ordered by certain unknown parties in the Center to travel to Mexico City and meet with General Kovtun of the Soviet Strategic Rocket Forces, who tells her about "Dead Hand" (a doomsday device) and the Soviet military's plan to overthrow Gorbachev if he renounces it. Kovtun asks Elizabeth to spy on Soviet negotiator Fyodor Nesterenko, who is meeting with American negotiator Glenn Haskard (whom Elizabeth is monitoring as "Stephanie", a home health care aide for his wife Erica, a terminally ill artist). Kovtun also gives Elizabeth a cyanide pill to take if captured. Meanwhile in the USSR, Arkady, now deputy chief of Directorate S and a Gorbachev supporter, recruits Oleg, now married (with a son) and out of the KGB (but also a Gorbachev supporter), to travel to the US and ask Philip to uncover (and possibly stop) Elizabeth's unapproved new mission; due to internal Soviet opposition to Gorbachev within the Center, Arkady cannot trust his own officers with this task. After arriving in D.C., Oleg signals Philip and then meets with him, telling Philip that he will stay in D.C. (without official cover) to await Philip's answer. While Paige is on a surveillance detail, a young U.S. security officer tries to coerce her for a date by taking her (fake) college ID. Elizabeth then kills him and recovers the ID. That night, when Philip tries to tell Elizabeth about Oleg's visit and points out the emotional toll of her job, she rudely dismisses him. ===== The action takes place in Belarus in the 1980s. The young graduate student Anna comes to her native village to her grandmother's house which she has not visited in 12 years. In the peaceful village she is preparing to write her thesis. Suddenly, two strangers appear in the house and claim that the landlady of this house rented it yesterday to them for two weeks. Events develop and it turns out that strangers got into the twentieth century from the future — the 28th century, with the help of a time machine. Historian Kin and physicist Jules are searching for unrecognized geniuses whose life ended before their time. Their goal is to send such geniuses to the future, without changing the course of history (that is, to evacuate them at the time they are supposed to die). Here they have an intermediate stop and they need to go further, in the 13th century, to find there a certain boyar Roman, who lived at that time in these parts, and take him with them to the future. From the chronicles it is known that he invented gunpowder and the printing press, and, apparently, died when the city was taken by the Crusaders. From their point of view, he is a genius, and according to his contemporaries he is a sorcerer. Involuntarily Anna becomes involved in an amazing and dangerous adventure. Jules and Kin, with the help of special equipment, receive an image and sound from the past. They see that the town of Zamoshe, where boyar Roman lives, will soon be attacked by crusaders. After finding out the situation, Jules goes after the genius, but in the past he is discovered. The only one who can come to his rescue is Anna. She proposes to send herself to the past and using her similarity to princess Magdalena to help him escape from the prison. The true genius, as it turns out to be, is not Roman, but his ugly and at first inconspicuous assistant Akiplesha. He is saved immediately before the final destruction of the city. Anna is also safely transferred back in her time. ===== The investigation group of the prosecutor's office of the USSR is charged with the case of the collectors who were burned in the car which transported the proceeds of an airport.

The game's prologue follows Victor Ognin, the founder of the New Light Conglomerate, as he commits an act of sabotage against his own company that will "change the world forever". Victor's actions release mutants and dangerous unnatural phenomena across the world. The epicenter of these events is the island of Granichny, off the coast of the Russian mainland. The day the world changed forever becomes known as "Day X", and Victor goes into hiding. The main game takes place two years afterwards, with the player taking the role of a Volunteer, an agent of New Light assigned to explore Granichny on behalf of the Conglomerate in hopes of discovering a means to reverse the global damage caused by Victor. After performing various errands to gain the cooperation of the island's local population, the Volunteer is tasks by his handler, 400, to retrieve classified New Light documents. The documents reveal that New Light captured island locals and used them in human experimentation, including 400's wife and daughter, resulting in their deaths. 400's daughter, Lily, now haunts the island as a ghost that menaces the Volunteer on multiple occasions. Distraught, 400 abandons New Light and vanishes. Meanwhile, the Volunteer begins to receive mocking messages from a voice in his head that claims to be one and the same as him, and who possesses the ability to change either the Volunteer's perception of the world or the world itself, such as turning the world green or causing giant whales to swim through the sky. The Volunteer is soon contacted by Eleanora, the leader of Pravda, an independent organization opposed to New Light that is attempting to uncover the truth behind Day X. While performing missions for Pravda, the Volunteer discovers that New Light has been deliberately converting captured locals into "Subject 47s", insane madmen who are then killed to harvest the unique moss growing in their bodies, which New Light uses as a fuel source. The Volunteer is convinced by this to turn against New Light and help Pravda broadcast a message revealing the truth to the world. The Volunteer later learns that the spatial anomalies on the island are actually former humans who have been converted into anomalies by New Light's research. He meets Alice Ognin, Victor Ognin's daughter and a former New Light scientist, who turned herself into an anomaly in hopes this would convince her father to stop New Light's human experimentation. Alice begs the Volunteer to end her suffering, which the Volunteer does with a special device specifically designed to destroy anomalies. Meanwhile, Pravda's headquarters are stormed by the Soviet secret police, and Eleanora and all other members of Pravda are summarily executed. 400 contacts the Volunteer and reveals that Victor Ognin is leading a breakaway splinter group of New Light headquartered in a heavily defended fortress stronghold on the island. The Volunteer decides to assassinate Ognin in the hopes of putting an end to New Light. After infiltrating Ognin's bunker, the Volunteer confronts Ognin, who turns out to be a massive anomaly. The Ognin-Anomaly reveals it is the Voice inside the Volunteer's head. Speaking with the voices of the Voice, Victor Ognin, 400, and Eleanora, the Ognin-Anomaly explains that he accidentally destroyed the world on Day X, and altered reality to create a new world in his mind. All the people the Volunteer encountered were simply reflections of Ognin's consciousness, including the Volunteer himself, who is the embodiment of Victor's conscience and desire to correct his mistakes. Ognin informs the Volunteer that he is no longer needed, and compels him to shoot himself in the head. The Volunteer awakens back at his safe house, wondering how many times he's relived these events and how many more times they will occur.

The Masked Prosecutor's punishment involves forcing his detainees to listen to Hindu Buddhist chanting music, whipping them with a cane and tattooing a number on their arm for them to remember their chronological order of his being his detainee before tossing them outside the police station. Officer Wah Kai-lun (Jordan Chan) was assigned to work on the case of the Masked Prosecutor with veteran officer Wan Ping-kai (Blackie Ko), known as Guy, who is six months away from retirement. Wah and Guy proceed to interrogate the three detainees in the hospital. Afterwards, Wah visits Guy's house and notices the lack of photographs present there. Guy's daughter, Siu- yu (Grace Yip) shows Wah a photo album with pictures of her family along with a picture of Guy with his godsons, Tong Hiu-tai (Louis Koo) and Wan Chi-nin (Michael Tse), who were also police officers and the trio were known as the Three Eagles of Mongkok. Wah takes the picture of the trio with him and tries to find clues while listening to the interrogations by the three detainees. At this time, it is also reported that Kwong Cho-foon (Lo Mang), who was involved in a gold shop robbery two years ago where he also killed a man and crippling his daughter, have been acquitted of all charges. Wah plans to use Kwong to lure out the Masked Prosecutor. On the night of the operation, the Masked Prosecutor appears, attacking and attempts to abduct Kwong in a massage parlour before being interfered by Wah. The Masked Prosecutor gets into a scuffle with Wah where gains the upper and was about to shoot Wah before leaving the scene as uniformed officers arrive. Guy, who was slacking in a Cha chaan teng, also arrives and gets into an argument with Wah when the latter reveals that he suspect Guy is acquainted with the Masked Prosecutor, who Wah suspects to be Guy's godson, Hiu-tai. Hiu-tai, who was once a police officer, was charged for manslaughter after killing a robber who surrendered. Because of this, Wah suspects Hiu-tai, but Guy refuses to believe Hiu-tai to be the Masked Prosecutor. Guy, who was present when Tong killed the robber, reveals the story: three years ago, Guy became sworn brothers and a godfather to Hiu- tai and Chi-nin. During that occasion, the trio were called upon for an operation to arrest drug dealers. A gunfight and chase ensues and two of the suspects were apprehended. While chasing down the final criminal, Hiu-tai mistakenly shoots and kills Chi-nin, which Guy was unaware of. Devastated, Hiu-tai kills the final suspect even the latter has surrendered. Guy has planned to quit the force if Hiu-tai loses his job, but refrains after realizing he would be missing out HK$1 million of pension after he retire. Therefore, Guy believes Hiu-tai resents him. To continue on the investigation, Guy and Wah visit the Solvia-Pokka-Fuji Family Rehab Center, where Hiu-tai used to hang out with his girlfriend Ada (Jessica Hsuan), who was Chi-nin's older sister. There, they see Hiu-tai helping out an old lady before walking into a cha chaan teng. There, Wah straight up asks Hiu-tai whether he is the Masked Prosecutor, bu the latter walks away without saying a word. In the middle of night, Hiu-tai gives a call to Wah and tells him he plans to kill Kwong because of Wah's interference. Wah sends his subordinate to protect Kwong and stations him in a hotel room. Hiu-tai, disguised as a Buddhist monk, sneaks into the hotel and takes down Wah's subordinates before entering into Kwong's hotel room and killing him. Wah proceeds to chase Hiu-tai outside the streets and when he finally caught up, he points his gun at Hiu-tai. Hiu-tai ignores him and Wah fires a shot. As Wah walks over to cuff Hiu-tai, Guy appears and knocks Wah unconscious and drives Hiu-tai away from the scene. Guy urges Hiu-tai to stop what he is doing because it is illegal, but Hiu-tai refuses, stating he rather die than go to jail as he was tortured by criminals he helped incarcerate when he was in prison. Hiu-tai believes he is doing the right thing because the world is unfair that criminals can get away from the justice as long as they can afford to pay good lawyers. Hiu-tai also promises to leave Hong Kong and will only return after Guy retires. The next day, Guy was arrested by the Internal Affairs for assaulting Wah and helping Hiu-tai escape. When Hiu-tai was about to leave Hong Kong, he hears about Guy's arrest on the news, he gives a call to Wah, accusing Wah of pushing a cop to hell since Guy would either be killed or commit suicide if he will be imprisoned. Hiu-tai also threatens to kill Wah if Guy goes to jail. As Guy is being escorted to prison, Guy kills several police officers and attempts to free Guy. Also, it turns out to a scheme set up by Wah. As Hiu-fai flees, Wah gives chase, from a foot chase leading to a car chase until Hiu-fai's car explodes after running into another car. Hiu-tai narrowly escapes the explosion and gets into a brief scuffle with Wah and manages to snatch the latter's pistol. The police arrives and Hiu-tai hold Wah hostage. Eventually, Hiu-tai empties the pistol and pushes Wah away, pretending to fire at the cops. In the end, Hiu-tai'a ashes were taken by Guy and placed them next to Chi-nin's at the temple, where Guy, Wah and Siu-yu pay their respects. It is also revealed that Wah changed his testimony so Guy would not end up in prison. There, they encounter Ada, who has become a nun. ===== Copenhagen police officers Christian Toft and Lars Hansen are sent to check out a reported domestic disturbance in an apartment. When they arrive, they find a man trying to leave the building with blood on his shoes. Toft assumes he’s the domestic assailant and handcuffs him. Hansen send him upstairs to go check on the man’s wife, when Toft realizes he accidentally left his gun at home. He takes Hansen’s and goes upstairs, only to find the apartment filled with firearms, plastic explosives, and a man lying dead with his throat slit and fingers removed. Using a hidden knife, the assailant breaks free from his restraints and attacks Hansen, inadvertently cutting his throat. The wounded Hansen tells Toft to give chase before losing consciousness. Toft pursues the assailant across the rooftop, but both fall several stories. While Toft lies incapacitated, he sees three men come up and knock the assailant out before taking him away. The police identify the assailant from fingerprints as Ezra Tarzi, a Libyan emigrant and former Special Forces operative whose parents had been killed by Salah Al-Din, an ISIS commander known as “Sheikh”. Al-Din, who smuggles weapons and explosives through a tomato importer based in Brussels, is responsible for numerous terrorist attacks which he films and edits before posting them online. Tarzi’s victim, Farooq Hares, was one of Al-Din’s lieutenants, and Tarzi was trying to get to him. Toft wants to pursue Tarzi to bring him to justice, but is suspended by his superior Detective Wold after he learns that Toft misplaced his service weapon, and is interrogated by internal affairs inspector Alex Boe. Meanwhile, Tarzi and his family have been abducted by CIA agent Joe Martin, who has relentlessly pursued Al-Din ever since he killed five of his colleagues years earlier. Martin pressures a reluctant Tarzi into working on his behalf by threatening to reveal his murderous deeds to his children. He sends him first after Hares’ nephew in Copenhagen, but during the struggle the younger Hares breaks loose and throws himself to his death. Tarzi manages to find several hidden cellphones in the apartment, from which Martin traces calls from a restaurant in Almería. They deduce that Al-Din intends to use a ferry to escape to friendly territory in North Africa, where he’ll be effectively untraceable. Tarzi travels to Almería and attempts to find Al-Din by torturing one of his underlings, but gets nothing. Despite being suspended, Toft remains resolute in finding Tarzi. Along with Boe, who also wants to avenge Hansen, the two travel unsupervised to Brussels, but during the drive receive a phone call from Hansen’s wife Hanne that he has died in hospice. Heartbroken, Alex reveals that she and Lars had been having an affair and he’d been intending to divorce Hanne and start a family with her. When a shocked Toft pushes back, Boe reveals intimate photos of the two together and an ultrasound, indicating she's carrying his child. The two fail to find leads in Brussels, but learn that Tarzi has been spotted in Almería and quickly change course for southern Spain. As they’re driving from the airport, they spot one of Al-Din’s tomato delivery trucks, and Toft deduces the connection. They follow the truck, eventually stumbling across Al-Din himself in another. They follow him to a bullfighting area, where he and several others splinter off into the ring and nearby building. Toft follows Al-Din to the roof of the building, while Boe follows the others into the arena, where she spots one of them causing a distraction while another gets into a strategic location. Al- Din’s men fly a camera drone into the arena, intending to film their comrade’s suicide bombing. Just in the nick of time, Toft and Boe realize what is happening and intervene, shooting Al-Din in the process. Boe calls Wold, who in turn calls Martin, who proposes a trade - Tarzi for Al-Din. They meet on the rooftop, but Al-Din dies from his wounds. A distraught Tarzi asks Toft to kill him, but Martin makes clear that he intends to use the vengeful assassin as an asset for years to come. Suddenly, Boe arrives and shoots and kills Tarzi, avenging Lars. A disappointed Martin walks away, leaving an emotionally-drained Toft and Boe alone. ===== ===== The action takes place in the USSR in the 1980s.

The film unfolds the theme through instances of the story-line. ===== London book dealer Emmett Leigh discovers a love letter, written from Tom to Ben, in a World War II-era book of poetry, Time Was by E.L. After selling the book and posting the letter to online war history groups, Emmett is contacted by Thorn Hildreth, who produces a 1941 diary entry from her great-grandfather, Rev Anson Hildreth, which mentions close friends Tom and Ben at the Heliopolis Club in Alexandria, and is accompanied by photos of the men. Emmett's friend Shahrzad Hejazi at the Imperial War Museum in London recalls and finds a photo of Tom and Ben taken in July 1915, as well as an eyewitness account of them, identified by name, disappearing together into an otherworldly portal. Shahrzad also retrieves a photo of them from a documentary shot in Bosnia in 1995, in which they seem only a decade or so older than the one taken in 1915. Emmett and Thorn hypothesize that Tom and Ben are "emortal"—they age slowly, but are not immortal, in that they can die. Emmett and Thorn—now lovers themselves—travel to Paris to retrieve the copy of Time Was Emmett sold. They learn that the old bookstores which possess copies of the book have generations-old instructions to never sell them, and to pass them along to other bookshops should theirs close. In addition to the one sold by Emmett, the Paris bookstore has their own copy, in which Emmett and Thorn find a letter from Ben to Tom, written in Nanking in 1937. They realize that the men are time travelers, and use the books to communicate. Emmett determines that all known copies of Time Was are held by five bookshops across the world, in Paris, Lisbon, New York, Brussels, and Rome. With further research online and at museums, he discovers multiple traces of Tom and Ben throughout the 19th and 20th century, the earliest of which is in 1856. His obsession with the project has a negative impact on his health. Applying quantum mechanics to the fact that the highest incidence of traces of the men is between 1935 and 1949, Emmett deduces that they are time travelers from the past, not the future. Watching the documentary, Thorn's grandfather, Leland, is able to identify Tom's accent as coming from Woodbridge, Suffolk. This leads Emmett to a purported 1980 UFO sighting at RAF Woodbridge, and a 1940s incident at a hamlet named Shingle Street, which Emmett guesses is Tom and Ben's departure point. In the early 1940s, Royal Engineer Tom Chappell and Royal Air Force scientist Ben Seligman, a new arrival to RAF Bawdsey, lock eyes at a pub. They are soon romantically involved, in secret. A test of Ben's secret military project, seeking cloaking technology, appears successful, which leads to a larger attempt. This experiment creates a time vortex into which Tom and Ben are drawn. In the present, Regenbald Howe, the caretaker of the Martello tower at Shingle Street, knows of Chappell and Seligman, who were stationed at RAF Bawdsey during World War II. He produces a diary, left anonymously for the Chappell family in 1980, in which Tom describes a military scientific experiment gone awry. Regenbald has also amassed countless eyewitness accounts, personal notes, and legends about the event. Over the next few years, the Paris and Brussels bookstores close, but Emmett keeps track of their copies of Time Was, both in Rome. He reads of a strange storm in Cyprus, which he believes to be one of Tom and Ben's portals. Tom arrives at one of the bookshops, and recognizes a stunned Emmett as the E.L. who wrote Time Was. Sometime in the near future, Emmett will become a time traveler himself, and meet a young Tom before the experiment. Emmett tells Tom that Ben died in a ship sunk by torpedoes. ===== The film consists of several storylines.

They are still close in high school, but their first romantic interests are directed at other people: for Ritsu, a beautiful girl in the archery club of another school; for Suzumu, a kind boy also from another school.

But with Saya having grown jealous of Suzume, Ritsu decides to end all contact with Suzume.

She, Yūko, and Makoto—Akikaze's apprentices—compete for a famous newcomer award, which Makoto wins, but has to withdraw after he earns Akikaze's ire for publishing another manga in a disreputable magazine. The award then goes to Suzume, who along with Yūko, gets to draw her first serialized manga.
