A group of spies called the 5446 Corps were trained by North Korean elite special forces since their youth, ostensibly towards the lofty goal of unifying Korea. They are ambitiously dispatched to South Korea, where each disguises himself as a fool, an aspiring singer, and a high school student. Passing boring time without receiving any orders from the North, they gradually get used to life as ordinary neighbors in a small town until one day, their mundane lives are turned upside down when a "secret and great" mission is suddenly assigned to them. Due to the events of the Second Battle of Yeonpyeong, South Korea demands the names, location, and rank of 30 North Korean spies active in South Korea, promising financial aid to the North on the condition that Pyongyang turns in their spies. To prevent the elites from falling into enemy hands, the North Korean government orders dozens of active duty spies to take their own lives. Meanwhile, their North Korean army instructor Kim Tae-won crosses the border to eliminate those who refuse to follow.

A moment of bad luck derailed Deok-kyu's Olympic dreams and led him and his friends to jail. Jin-ho got out of jail quickly because of his rich parents, but Deok-kyu, Jae-seok, and Sang-hoon were not so lucky.

Years later, while running a noodle shop to earn extra money following an accident involving his daughter, Deok-kyu accepts an invitation to join a televised mixed martial arts tournament, ''Fists of Legend''. A group of middle-aged men who used to be called "legends" during their teenage high school days take part in the "real action fighting" reality show, and the winner gets a prize of every round, for a total of ( ). Among the contestants are Deok-kyu's old friends Sang-hoon, currently a manager at a large company who lacks in self-respect after getting passed over for a promotion, and Jae-seok, now a good-for-nothing guy who dreams of becoming a somebody.

The concert opens with Mickey on the piano. His shadow is cast dramatically on the curtain as he plays a classical interlude. Soon he transitions into a ragtime version of "St. Louis Blues." Minnie struts onstage and sings the verse "I hate to see that evening sun go down..." with Mickey accompanying. Soon an unseen band takes over the accompaniment and Mickey joins Minnie; the two mice dance and scat sing two more verses.

As Mickey and Minnie exit stage right, the curtain rises to reveal the band – Pluto on trombone, two goats on violins, a Scottish Terrier on sousaphone, a pig on the cornet, Clarabelle Cow on a double bass, two Dachshunds on saxophones, and Horace Horsecollar on a drum set and xylophone; Mickey reappears through a stage elevator to conduct. After several interruptions, Mickey plays a clarinet and parodies jazz bandleader Ted Lewis; the performance is based in part on the Ted Lewis Band's 1926 recording of "St. Louis Blues".

As the band plays the final notes of the climatic finale, they collectively jump on the bandstand and cause it to collapse. They reemerge from the debris to deliver a final "Yeah!" to the audience.

Rehearsal with Rebecca Duvall (Uma Thurman) as Marilyn gets off to a bumpy start. Within minutes, everyone realizes Duvall can't sing very well. Additionally, Duvall is unprofessional and self-centered, continually trying to change the show, blowing off events and showing up late, and creating a scene when a drunken ex-lover crashes rehearsal. In order to compensate for Duvall's lack of theatrical skills, Derek creates bigger parts for Karen (Katharine McPhee) and the newly rehired Ivy (Megan Hilty). Derek continues fantasizing about Karen as Marilyn. Eventually, when Duvall shows awareness of her weaknesses and a willingness to work on them, it becomes smoother for Eileen, Derek, Tom, and Julia to work with her.

Dev (Raza Jaffrey) continues to not tell Karen about losing the press secretary gig, so Karen finds out from the guy who did get the press secretary job. Karen and Dev continue to drift further away from each other, while Dev gets closer to R.J. (Tala Ashe). Karen and Ivy bond over a shared rivalry with Duvall. Tom (Christian Borle) and Sam (Leslie Odom, Jr.) go out on a date, and Sam insists they take things slow. Eileen (Anjelica Huston) gets scared of getting close to Nick, and Nick soothes her fears. Leo (Emory Cohen) has trouble with his grades at school, and Frank (Brian d'Arcy James) and Julia must find a way to put aside their issues and help Leo out of his rough patch.

After a major electromagnetic storm cripples communications worldwide, a new satellite-based Airborne collision avoidance system (ACAT) air traffic control system is struck, with debris hitting the earth. The malfunctioning satellite puts all air traffic in danger on the U.S. east coast where it is being operated on a "pilot project".

Consequently, two aircraft are heading on a collision course. One is a commercial airliner carrying hundreds of passengers while the other is Air Force One, carrying President Phillips (Andy Clemence), the President of the United States, and his family. The ACAT begins sending out errant commands that put both aircraft into serious jeopardy.

In the severe electric storm, satellites begin failing with debris hitting major populated areas in the United States. Dr. Antonia "Toni" Pierce (Erin Coker) comes upon some of the debris and contacts Cleveland FAA Air Traffic controller Bob Abbot (Reginald VelJohnson). Abbot tries to prevent the looming disaster, overriding all top level directives to keep aircraft flying, he wants to ground all traffic.

Both the commercial airliner and Air Force One are struck by repeated lightning strikes that partially disable the aircraft. The damaged satellite signals cause the ACAT to wreak havoc on the escorting F-16 fighters. The McDonnell Douglas MD-80 airliner also loses both engines but gets a restart just before impacting. A rogue Sidewinder missile from Air Force One also strikes the converging airliner and both aircraft impact in a glancing hit. The airliner crash-lands in Cleveland.

An Air Force Lockheed C-130 Hercules rescue effort ultimately fails to bring Air Force One's passengers to safety, and electrical impulses affecting the president's aircraft kill the flight crew, leaving the only alternative being the President's daughter (Stephanie Hullar) attempting to disable the ACAT system. When the ACAT is finally overridden, the President takes control of Air Force One and brings it into a landing at Detroit.

On her way to a party Camille consults a quirky clockmaker because she needs to have her watch fixed. The watch has sentimental value for her because she got it as a present for her 16th birthday. Next morning Camille realises it is the year 1985 and she is again a teenager.

The novel and details the life of a girl named Sandra. She grows up in a home with an absent father and an alcoholic mother, but finds a father figure in a local Jewish shop owner. After detailing some troubling scenes from her childhood, the novel moves to the present where Sandra picks up a package discarded by a passing car that is pursued by police.

Eventually bringing this package to a classmate who deals drugs, Sandra falls in love with the pusher (neither uses drugs themselves) and things start to pick up for both of them. Neither has to steal any longer to provide themselves with clothes or food, and the two find solace in each other and move in together. The boyfriend is arrested for possession and sent to a correctional institution from which he is to be released when he turns 18.

While he is incarcerated, Sandra finds herself held hostage in the shared apartment by some characters who not only rob her, but gang rape her as well as beating her. When she visits her boyfriend in prison and tells him what happens, he decides to escape from the correctional facility. A bloody climax is the result and Sandra’s boy friend, who refuses to go back to jail, insists on holding court in the street, once he has taken out the thugs who violated Sandra.

After one year and a half, Jimmy still can't win Sabrina's heart and becomes depressed when he finds out that she and Wyatt are planning to move in together. Virginia hatches a plan to make Sabrina jealous. Virginia calls up Sabrina under the ruse that she is looking for Jimmy and lies to her that Jimmy has a girlfriend and they are very happy together. The next day at the grocery store, it is apparent that her plan is a success as Sabrina is snippy about Jimmy having a girlfriend. Sabrina proposes that Jimmy and his girlfriend go on a double date with Wyatt and her. Jimmy demurs that he has to work, then gets in trouble when Frank offers to take his Monday shift, freeing him and his non-existent girlfriend to go on the double date.

Jimmy explains to Frank and Barney that "the girlfriend thing" is just a lie. Jimmy, Virginia and Burt can't think of a likely prospect to be Jimmy's fake girlfriend. That night, Barney runs to their house and says he found the solution to his problem. He leads them to an improv group and introduces Mary-Louise, who Barney says has been on Broadway (the street) and would be "the perfect fake girlfriend". After a few hilarious moments between the Chance family and Mary-Louise, the fake couple (Jimmy and Mary-Louise) and the real couple (Sabrina and Wyatt) go to a Mexican restaurant for the double date. Throughout the date, Wyatt is only paying attention to "men on ice playing with sticks" on the TV, while texting on his phone. On the other hand, with help from Mary-Louise's friends from the improv group, Jimmy impresses Sabrina.

Next morning, Sabrina comes to Jimmy's house to give him the picture taken of the couples at the restaurant and says that she and Wyatt broke up last night. She still thinks that Jimmy and Mary-Louise's relationship is real. After Virginia slaps him and Burt gives him an advance, Jimmy decides to call Sabrina and tell her that his girlfriend is busy on Valentine's Day and ask her if she wants to hang out with him. Jimmy and Sabrina go to the theater of the Room for Improv'ment Players where Mary-Louise and her group work. They perform a play which the cast introduces as having been written a few hours previously. The play is a mix of narrative and confession of Jimmy to Sabrina. It shows highlights of their relationship since the first time they met, including the time when Jimmy protected Sabrina when she became excessively intoxicated on Halloween night. The play is accompanied by the song You Light Up My Life performed by Virginia and Burt. Sabrina watches in wonder as the play unfolds.

In the end, Jimmy confesses his feelings to Sabrina and says he loves her. After a brief silent moment, Sabrina runs away. Jimmy runs after her and when he looks for her, Sabrina appears, says "I hate kissing in public" and they kiss. And the episode ends with everyone finishing the song "You Light Up My Life".

In his final completed film, Ruiz created a film about the idea of death itself. In this film, there are three dimensions of time that Ruiz plays with. Time as a dimension can be explained further here.

The film begins with the protagonist Don Celso (Sergio Hernández) in a classroom taught by a famous French writer Jean Giono (Christian Vadim). In this session, Giono lectures about the use of language and how phrases used in different languages simply do not work. As everyone’s eyes are closed, an alarm goes off in Don Celso’s pocket which is a reminder for him to take his medicine. This is followed up by a discussion between Don Celso and Jean Giono outside of class. They both discuss how time stumbles along in life which is ultimately what happens in the entire film. They mention how time is like marbles in which Don Celso points out that these marbles can be worn as a necklace. This refers to the film when Don Celso explores different fantasies in his life as his current self or child-self shortly after. This entire sequence is an exploration of time that he has with himself.

Immediately after, the story takes place in what we believe to be his current time. He is working at an office where they write poetry. Don Celso is shown at his desk, away from everybody as he is in his own state of mind, moving his hands like puppets talking to one another. His coworker points out that he has never done this before, but with the previous sequence that we have seen, we can assume that he is moving his hands this way because he is reenacting his conversation that he just had with Jean Giono. This could mean that he is in another dimension of time until he is alerted by his boss. We later learn in this sequence that Don Celso is only days away from retirement and that he is going to have a retirement party the next day.

We are followed up by Don Celso in his third dimension, as a young boy who calls himself Rhododendron Celso (Santiago Figueroa) or Rodo for short. In this sequence he is interacting with famous pirate, Long John Silver (Pedro Villagara) or Captain as he asks to be called. In this interaction, we see Celso’s perspective on who he believes Long John Silver to be which clearly dates back to several centuries ago. Ruiz implements his style as he plays with fantasy and memory here as he is shown creating separate worlds for his characters at this early stage in the film which is.

The films then goes back to its first dimension with Jean Giono as Don Celso and Giono talk about both their lives. We learn here that Don Celso is waiting for the man that is going to kill him soon. This idea of being killed is the ultimate drive for Don Celso as the film continues. The film immediately follows back into the third dimension with Rodo. This stands out in the film because we eventually learn at the end of the film Rodo Celso is the one to kill Don Celso (This will be explained later). The transition from first dimension to third initially was because Don Celso is asked who his favorite historical figure is. Rodo responds with Beethoven. We are introduced to a time where Rodo actually travels into another dimension (yes there are a lot of time dimension travelling in this film) to speak to Beethoven (Sergio Schmied). In this world with Beethoven, he is not deaf and learns the many innovations and inventions of the 20th century (which brings the Ruizian comedy to play).

Somehow this dimension is connected with the second dimension in the form of a story. Don Celso is shown actually reading the stories that we see with Rodo on paper at a recording station. In Rodo’s story, we learn that he is trying to get his low grade changed to a higher one from the teacher who gave it to him. Throughout parts of this time, Rodo is accompanied by Beethoven. There is a scene where Beethoven is at the cinema with Rodo and he asks him why do people go to the cinema if they don’t know what it’s even about and Rodo responds by saying that we just come to have fun, not learn anything. Though it doesn’t drive the plot anywhere, it is a humorous remark on Ruiz which makes fun of Hollywood cinema. Despite his journey of trying to improve his grade, we learn that Rodo is a very intelligent young boy who knows just about everything he is asked. After going home unable to change his grade, his parents attempt to whip him with a belt, but is saved by Rodo’s grandfather.

The film progresses back on to the second dimension with Don Celso. Here we are introduced to Rolo Pedro (Christian Gajardo) who comes into a boarding home to stay with the ultimate goal to kill Don Celso and take his money. Don Celso even knows he is going to kill him by saying it aloud; however, what is important here is when Don Celso and Rolo Pedro are first introduced, Don Celso repeats his name several times and eventually says Rhododendron because they sound very similar to him. This is significant because even though he thinks Rolo Pedro will kill him, it is actually Rhododendron that does.

The film begins to pick up as a few more cuts to different dimensions are made, but ultimately is carried through the second dimension with Don Celso. A mass murder happens at the boarding home that he lives at with all the characters that we have met in the film are dead and moved on into another world. Don Celso is the only one left in the boarding home. Ruiz then goes on to play with both the second and third dimensions as he places both the young Rodo Celso and Don Celso in the same dimension in the same conversation. Rodo appears first, but then Don later appears shortly after. This signifies that they are indeed the same person and then makes us feel that the story in which we had originally believed to be the actual dimension of the real world, becomes questionable or better yet, a story. Throughout the film, we believed Rodo Celso’s story to be the imaginative one, but with Long John Silver’s conversation with Don Celso, we are now unsure of that being the actual truth if there is any to begin with.

This puzzling sequence is followed up by Rodo Celso putting a gun to Don Celso’s head and shooting. As a result, Don Celso enters an entirely new dimension where the dead all seem to exist (they all have bullet wounds of how they died throughout the rest of the film indicating a change of dimension). Don Celso is shown trying to learn this new place that he finds himself in. As the films winds down to an end, don Celso finds three people at a time in different locations who are all in a state of speaking with the dead. After this moment, they get up with Don Celso and follow him onto the next room. This happens until all the significant characters reunite in one final setting. It is in its own way a funeral service for Don Celso. They all take a seat in the chair as they listen to three of Don Celso’s previous co-workers give speeches about remember Don Celso. This feels like almost a self-reflection of Ruiz and his entire work in cinema.

Thanks to her strong performance in the debate, Leslie (Amy Poehler) is only two points behind Bobby Newport (Paul Rudd) in the city council race. Leslie and her staff board a campaign bus to go around Pawnee and campaign hard in the final stretch, with a depressed Chris (Rob Lowe) asking to do much of the busy work to distract himself. Vans rented to chauffeur elderly Leslie voters to the polls are suddenly no longer available, so Tom (Aziz Ansari), Ron (Nick Offerman), and Donna (Retta) head to the rental company to investigate. Andy (Chris Pratt), acting as Leslie's bodyguard in his Burt Macklin persona, is on high alert for the bus tour after someone tried to throw a pie at Leslie at a previous rally.

The bus tour goes smoothly, but when Leslie answers a reporter's question about Nick Newport Sr. – Bobby's father – by accusing him of buying the election and making other disparaging comments, the reporter reveals that Nick has died. Bobby's campaign manager Jennifer Barkley (Kathryn Hahn) jumps on the opportunity and portrays Leslie as someone who only cares about politics, not the memory of Pawnee's leading benefactor. Meanwhile, Tom, Ron, and Donna discover that Nick had paid off the rental company manager, Bill (Mike O'Malley), to not rent the vans to Leslie's campaign. After their attempts to sway Bill fail, they decide to block his car with Donna's beloved Mercedes. When Bill rams his car into it, she backs into him, with Tom and Ron threatening to tell police it was all Bill's fault unless he gives them the vans.

Ben (Adam Scott) decides Leslie should personally express her condolences to Bobby to salvage some positive press, but when the bus pulls up to the Newport estate, it interrupts a memorial service for Nick, further hurting Leslie's image. Leslie manages to speak with Bobby in private, who reveals he only ran for office to get his father's approval, which Leslie relates to by telling a story about trying to win her mother's approval. Bobby is grateful for Leslie's sympathy and gives a speech to reporters (stealing Leslie's story), but tells them about Leslie's kindness and asks voters who are against him to vote for her. A frustrated Jennifer – already worried that she won't get paid with Nick dying – believes Bobby's endorsement of Leslie will win her the election. April (Aubrey Plaza) tells Chris that he shouldn't be lonely because they are his friends, but it does not work; Jennifer then finds Chris and convinces him to have sex with her.

Andy eventually solves the pie case: it was meant for Ben, not Leslie, and it was thrown by Joe (Kirk Fox), whom Ben had fired. Andy catches Joe attempting another pie throw, but he forgets to actually stop him and Ben is hit in the face.

It is Election Day in Pawnee and Leslie (Amy Poehler) and Bobby Newport (Paul Rudd) are neck-and-neck in the latest poll. Tom (Aziz Ansari) is organizing the results party because he had a dream that Ann (Rashida Jones) will get back together with him if she enjoys the party. Bobby's campaign manager Jennifer Barkley (Kathryn Hahn), impressed with Leslie's campaign, offers Ben (Adam Scott) a job working for a congressional reelection campaign in Washington, D.C., but he will need to leave in two days and be there for six months. Ben brings it up with Leslie, who is upset by the news since Ben will move away just as their lives return to normal.

Chris (Rob Lowe) has finally emerged from his depression after having sex numerous times with Jennifer, but he is oblivious that the sex is meaningless to her. At the results party, Jerry (Jim O'Heir) – who did not have time to vote – panics when the first few rounds of results give Bobby a slight lead, worrying that Leslie will lose by one vote. Leslie and Ben seek advice about Ben's job offer: Ann suggests Leslie ask Ben to stay, and Ron (Nick Offerman) tells Ben to also remain, citing his own love for routine. Ben reminds him that if Leslie wins, Ron's routine will change since he will become Assistant City Manager. Leslie later asks Ben to stay and he agrees.

The final results are in and Bobby is declared the winner, but Ben correctly says that Bobby's small margin of victory is low enough to trigger an automatic recount. Leslie goes missing but Ron finds her in the city council chambers, where she laments letting her friends down after they worked so hard for her. Ron tells her that he and the parks department joined her campaign because they care about her and her dream, not the reward of winning. Hearing this, Leslie tells Ben he should accept the job. The recount eventually comes in and it is official: Leslie has won, to Leslie's overwhelmed jubilation and Jerry's (and Bobby's) relief. Ben accepts Jennifer's offer and she leaves without saying goodbye to Chris. Ron turns down the Assistant City Manager position, content with his life; Jean-Ralphio (Ben Schwartz) asks Chris for the job, but he is turned down immediately. Leslie thanks her friends and supporters with a heartfelt speech; she previously asked Ben about the concession speech that he wrote, but he reveals that he never wrote it. Later, a drunk Ann gets back together with Tom and even agrees to move in with him, fulfilling his dream.

In a B plot, April (Aubrey Plaza) asks for Andy's (Chris Pratt) help after she accidentally deletes all of the department's files. When their attempts to recover them fail, they jokingly plan to move away, change their identities, and get new careers, with all of Andy's careers revolving around law enforcement (like his often used alter ego, FBI agent Burt Macklin). The day is saved when Donna (Retta) reveals that she has a back-up copy of the files because Jerry always accidentally deletes files. April later suggests that Andy actually join the police department.

Subway opens a store at Greendale, stealing Shirley's (Yvette Nicole Brown) idea for a sandwich shop. Because all on-campus businesses must be majority-owned by students, the company introduces a "corpo-humanoid", also named Subway (Travis Schuldt), to represent them as a person. Shirley and Pierce (Chevy Chase) ask Britta (Gillian Jacobs) to get close to Subway and find dirt on him; she resists their requests.

Jeff (Joel McHale) finds out he has a locker he has never used. Inside, he finds an angry note from "Kim". Troy (Donald Glover) and Abed (Danny Pudi) build a pillow fort together and learn they could set a Guinness World Record for largest pillow or blanket fort. Troy suggests adding blankets to set the record, but Abed refuses to shift his approach just to receive recognition. Seeking to pry Troy away from the group, Vice Dean Laybourne (John Goodman) manipulates Troy's feelings of inferiority to make him turn on Abed.

Jeff and Annie (Alison Brie) try to find Kim so Jeff can apologize, but another student (Adam Silver) informs them that Kim recently died. Jeff despairs upon learning this; Annie suggests apologizing to Kim's locker. Meanwhile, Britta and Subway bond over their appreciation for ''Nineteen Eighty-Four''. Pierce suspects Britta is falling for Subway. He gives her a pen to plant as a bug, as well as lipstick for herself. Britta finds Subway in Abed's fort and snaps the pen, refusing to be a spy. They kiss, unaware that the lipstick is the actual bug.

At Kim's locker, Jeff apologizes for whatever he did wrong. The student from earlier reveals he is actually Kim; he was irritated with Jeff for constantly forgetting him during Jeff's first year. Annie, who thought she was teaching Jeff about his poor treatment of women, becomes furious. After meeting with Troy, Abed agrees to destroy his pillow fort, but Laybourne urges Abed to not sacrifice his work. When Britta's activities with Subway are revealed, Subway is taken away and replaced by another corpo-humanoid. Annie eventually apologizes to Jeff for snapping, though Jeff has forgotten about Kim again.

In the study room, Abed and Troy confront each other with their followers. Dean Pelton (Jim Rash) attempts to defuse the situation, but Star-Burns (Dino Stamatopoulos) accidentally throws a pillow into Troy's blanket fort, creating chaos. Each side retreats into its fort; Troy and Abed share one last look before retreating.

Dean Pelton (Jim Rash) announces that a carnival is coming to Greendale. Britta (Gillian Jacobs) wonders if her ex-boyfriend Blade will be working there and worries she'll feel a reckless urge to see him. She demands that Annie (Alison Brie) help her by taking her phone and monitoring her for the weekend. Vice Dean Laybourne (John Goodman) orders Pelton to convince Troy (Donald Glover) to enter the A/C Repair School.

Britta stays at Troy, Abed (Danny Pudi), and Annie's apartment. Troy and Abed watch ''Blade'', frustrating Annie's plans to help Britta. Britta asks to see her phone, but Annie refuses to reveal its location. Troy lets slip that the phone is in the refrigerator, and he, Abed, and Annie are forced to lock Britta in Annie's bedroom. Pelton suddenly arrives, to the others' confusion.

Seeking to meet Blade, Jeff (Joel McHale) takes Shirley (Yvette Nicole Brown) to the carnival. Pierce (Chevy Chase) and Chang (Ken Jeong) also attend together, united by their lack of other friends. Jeff finds Blade (Kirk Fox) and begins playing his game. At the apartment, Britta calms down and asks Annie for her phone again. Annie agrees as a sign of trust, but she secretly switches Blade's number with hers. Britta begins relentlessly texting Annie and eventually starts calling; Annie worries her deception will be revealed.

Shirley remarks that Blade seems appealing because he's relaxed. Jeff continues to play the game and converses with Blade, desperate to learn Blade's secrets for attracting women. Annie's attempts to talk Britta down fail, so Troy takes Annie's phone and texts Britta something unknown. Britta suddenly stops texting and leaves Annie's room, calling Blade a loser. After Jeff spends hundreds of dollars, Blade agrees to reveal his secret. Pierce and Chang argue and split up.

Pelton makes a weak attempt to talk to Troy, which fails. Annie takes Britta's phone and learns that Troy sent Britta something nice; she is disgusted that Britta only liked Blade because she thought he was mean. Realizing Annie's deception, Britta tries to leave and meet with Blade, but Jeff arrives and reveals Blade's secret: he is attractive because he cannot feel shame due to brain damage. Jeff explains that they have to learn to not hate themselves. Pierce arrives, asking Annie to take his phone and not let him call Chang. Britta realizes that Troy sent the nice message and smiles.

When the study group takes a break, Annie (Alison Brie) encourages Troy (Donald Glover) and Britta (Gillian Jacobs) to have lunch together while she joins Abed (Danny Pudi) in his "Dreamatorium", a room where he and Troy simulate imaginary adventures. Abed and Annie recreate ''Inspector Spacetime'', but Abed quickly becomes irritated. Annie realizes he's angry that she set up Troy and Britta, and Abed insists she is messing with the group. To prove his point, he simulates Troy and Britta's date going poorly.

When Annie finds the demonstration silly, Abed shows her the Dreamatorium's "engine", a cardboard contraption which he claims creates objective simulations. Frustrated, Annie rearranges the engine to consider other people's thoughts. Abed panics and passes out; when he awakens, he pretends to be Jeff (Joel McHale) and simulates a hospital environment that Annie requested earlier. Annie eventually plays along, demanding to know where Abed is. After encountering several simulated group members as hospital staff, Annie learns Abed is a patient. Seeking to find Abed, she tells "Jeff" to take her where she wants to go; "Jeff" instead takes her to the scene where they kissed. He insists she pushed Abed aside and paired Troy and Britta together so she could be with him. Annie claims Abed is okay, but "Jeff" reads Abed's "file" and quotes her calling Abed a control freak without empathy. Disgusted, Annie storms off but runs into a wall, breaking the simulation.

Upset, Annie asks to be alone, so Abed creates a new simulation and pretends to be her. "Annie" insists they love Jeff, but Annie explains she simply wants to be loved and repeatedly runs through scenarios with Jeff to get him to love her. "Annie" remarks that her scenarios sound like Abed's simulations, inspiring Annie to pretend to be Abed. "Chang" (Ken Jeong) arrives and places "Abed" in a locker with the real Abed. There, Abed expresses concerns that the group will eventually push him away. Annie, as herself, explains that his simulations are impressive but inaccurate; they simply manifest his anxieties. She acknowledges that they both need to work on not trying to script life. Satisfied, the two return to the ''Inspector Spacetime'' simulation.

When the group returns from their break, Troy reveals that he and Britta enjoyed lunch together and apologizes to Abed for leaving him. Abed tells Troy it's okay and compliments Annie's work in the Dreamatorium.

The study group struggles to process the news of Star-Burns's death. Jeff (Joel McHale) encourages everyone to simply move on, but Britta (Gillian Jacobs) tries to open a discussion about everyone's feelings, with little success. Chang (Ken Jeong) asks Dean Pelton (Jim Rash) for expanded policing powers at Greendale, which are rejected. The Dean then leaves to tell the study group Professor Kane has resigned over Star-Burns's death, forcing them to make up biology over the summer. Jeff, overwhelmed with despair, breaks down in tears over the news.

The group attends a memorial service for Star-Burns in the cafeteria. Jeff, still angry about having to retake biology, offers to give a eulogy, but he uses his time to rant against the school. Annie (Alison Brie) and Shirley (Yvette Nicole Brown) also decry the school for failing them, and the crowd becomes fired up and angry. Panicking, the Dean agrees to Chang's earlier requests, and Chang gathers his loyal security forces (a group of children introduced in "Contemporary Impressionists"). When Pierce's (Chevy Chase) speech provokes a full-blown riot, the security team viciously attacks with riot gear and pepper spray.

Afterwards, the group faces discipline from the school board. Pierce suggests pinning the blame on Chang, and the Dean decides to replace Chang. When Chang learns about this, he has the Dean kidnapped and replaced by an impersonator (J. P. Manoux). At the school board meeting, Jeff defends the group's actions and blames Chang, but Chang arrives and charms the board. An appearance by the "Dean" seals the decision, and the study group is expelled.

At Troy (Donald Glover), Abed (Danny Pudi), and Annie's apartment, the group wallows in depression. Britta regrets trying to help the group, and Abed wonders if this is the real Darkest Timeline. However, Troy insists they'll be fine because they're still together. This lifts everyone's spirits, and they share pizza together.

Two months after being expelled, Abed (Danny Pudi) is caught trespassing on Greendale's campus; he insists the Dean has been replaced by an imposter. To avoid charges, the group agrees to take Abed to a psychiatrist, Dr. Heidi (John Hodgman).

In Abed's therapy session, the others tell Dr. Heidi about past instances of Abed's unusual behavior, and Dr. Heidi says that Abed needs serious help. The group leaps to Abed's defense, arguing that if he is crazy, then all of them are crazy. They recount instances of their own unusual behavior. Unswayed, Dr. Heidi proposes for Abed to be institutionalized.

The group argues that Greendale is a crazy place and that Abed's obsession with the school is a natural result of that. Dr. Heidi encourages them to stop dwelling on Greendale for their own sakes, but the group counters by recalling good memories of the school. From their memories, they realize that the real Dean (Jim Rash) would never have expelled them and decide to figure out what happened. They try to leave, but Dr. Heidi reveals they cannot return to the school. He explains that Greendale is actually an asylum, and they have finally been released but are now relapsing. Their memories of the school were a shared delusion created to cope with reality. The group pictures themselves in the asylum and accepts Dr. Heidi's story.

However, as they leave in shock, they realize Dr. Heidi's story is a complete lie. They return and confront him before he can escape. He reveals that Chang (Ken Jeong) hired him to keep them away from the school. This causes the group to remember Chang's previous behavior, allowing Dr. Heidi to escape. The group agrees to find the Dean and take down Chang. Elsewhere, Chang learns of the group's discovery and begins planning to stop them.

Officer Cackowski (Craig Cackowski) dismisses the group's story that Chang (Ken Jeong) has replaced Dean Pelton (Jim Rash) with an impostor (J. P. Manoux). He warns the former students that they will be arrested if they approach the campus.

As Greendale's new leader, Chang plans a lavish birthday celebration for himself. After struggling to gather reconnaissance, Troy (Donald Glover) turns to Murray (Dan Bakkedahl) from the air conditioning repair school. Murray reveals that Dean Pelton is locked in the cafeteria basement and explains Chang's new security measures. He offers additional help from the A/C school in exchange for Troy joining their program. The other group members, particularly Britta (Gillian Jacobs), oppose losing Troy and reject the offer. Instead, they plan their own operation.

During Chang's party, Shirley (Yvette Nicole Brown), disguised as a chef, deliberately clogs a toilet, while Annie (Alison Brie) pretends to be a security guard. Troy and Abed (Danny Pudi) arrive as plumbers to fix the toilet; they break through the bathroom wall to access security codes in Chang's office. Jeff (Joel McHale) and Britta, masquerading as magicians, steal Chang's keys during their performance. Suddenly, Pierce (Chevy Chase) enters in a swami outfit. Chang recognizes Pierce, seemingly ruining the operation, but the team intentionally structured the plan to look like it was failing. Chang ends up chasing the fake Dean while the group frees the real Dean. However, Chang wises up and stops the group before they can escape.

The entire group is locked in the basement. Before leaving, Chang reveals his plan to use a firework show to burn the records room and cover up his misdeeds, ignoring the group's warnings that doing so would burn down the entire school and kill everyone inside. As the group tries to escape, Troy nods to an A/C maintenance camera, causing a large fan blocking an exit to stop. The group celebrates, although Britta realizes what Troy has sacrificed. Using a distraction, they take out Chang's army of kids and prevent the fireworks from exploding. Chang arrives and confronts the group, but two school board members (Jeremy Scott Johnson and Brady Novak) find the fake Dean and realize what happened, forcing Chang to flee. The board members worry about keeping the scandal quiet, but Dean Pelton promises to keep it under wraps.

Later, Troy honors his arrangement and prepares to move into the A/C school. The group shares parting words with him. He leaves with Murray for the school, where Vice Dean Laybourne (John Goodman) welcomes him.

Continuing from the previous episode, Troy is enrolled at the Air Conditioning Repair Annex, where Vice Dean Laybourne has declared him "The Truest Repairman," though Troy laments that he is no longer with his friends. After Laybourne accidentally dies from Freon inhalation while repairing an air conditioner, Troy becomes suspicious. The new Vice Dean Murray's (Dan Bakkedahl) willingness to let him return to Greendale only adds to his suspicion. Troy realizes that Murray sabotaged and killed Laybourne, and challenges him to do battle in the 'Sun Chamber,' a duel to fix an air conditioner in an enclosed chamber before the rising heat kills one of them. Troy quickly fixes his air conditioner, cooling his chamber as Murray's gets hotter. During the challenge, Murray admits to killing Laybourne, and passes out from heat exhaustion, Troy sees Laybourne's ghost and decides to save Murray by fixing his air conditioner. As the other repairmen prepare to punish Murray, Troy suggests simply calling the police, berating the other repairmen for their weirdness, and promptly leaves.

Dean Pelton announces that Subway has pulled their store from school cafeteria, letting Shirley open her sandwich shop, "Shirley's Sandwiches," in the vacant space. Pierce and Shirley get into an argument over who should get to sign off as the official owner of the shop, Shirley having done all the work while Pierce financed it. Shirley asks Jeff, who is preoccupied studying for his biology final, for help, much to his annoyance. After Pierce threatens to sue, the Dean suggests taking the matter to the student court. Jeff agrees to help Shirley before his exam, while Pierce hires his rival Alan (Rob Corddry) as his lawyer. During the case, Alan, having replaced Ted as manager of the firm after Ted's death, tells Jeff that if he doesn't throw the case then he will make it impossible for him to return to the firm after he graduates. Shirley surprises Jeff by admitting that the situation has put him in an unfair position and jeopardized his professional future, giving him the OK to tank her case. Inspired, Jeff decides that helping others is more important than helping himself. Moved by his words, Pierce drops the case, and fires Alan. Furious, Alan tells Jeff he is done as a lawyer, and that he was the one who ratted Jeff out. Jeff reveals that he already knew this, and thanks Alan for it, leaving Alan to storm out in defeat. Pierce and Shirley ask Jeff to act as their attorney and sign off as the owner for both of them.

Since Troy moved out, Abed begins to stress, and Evil Abed soon consumes him. Instead of allowing Britta to provide therapy, he performs a harsh psychological analysis of her, leaving her distraught. He decides to try to recreate the darkest timeline, in which Jeff has lost an arm. Before getting the chance to physically cut off Jeff's arm with a bone saw, Evil Abed hears Jeff's speech about selflessness, and turns back into good Abed.

The episode closes with a montage. Shirley and Pierce open their sandwich shop in the cafeteria to much delight. Abed reconciles with Britta, saying she's the only shrink he would trust to help him because neither of them have any control over his mind, and Troy returns to his friends, now that he is considered the "messiah" of the Air Conditioning Repair Annex and has made them start running it as a regular part of Greendale. Jeff successfully passes his biology final and decides to search online for his father. City College's Dean Spreck (Jordan Black) is shown plotting to wage war on Greendale. It is revealed that Star-Burns (Dino Stamatopoulos) faked his death. Although the Dreamatorium is shown being disassembled, Abed secretly installs a miniature version in his blanket fort and steps inside.

In the closing tag sequence, Leonard reviews a brand of potato chips via his YouTube page, putting emphasis on the words 'good' and 'buy' in a reference to this episode being the season finale.

Pierce Hawthorne (Chevy Chase) invites the study group, as well as LeVar Burton, who does not show up, to a warehouse. Upon arrival, the study group is greeted by Gilbert Lawson (Giancarlo Esposito), Pierce's deceased father Cornelius Hawthorne's (voiced by Larry Cedar) assistant of thirty years and estate executor. He informs them of Cornelius's last will and testament, whose dying wish was for Pierce and seven friends to play a video game that was developed over the course of thirty years, in response to a request made by Pierce in 1979 to invest in video games.

The group enters a stylized 8-bit video game world full of Cornelius's numerous prejudiced beliefs. They are informed by the in-game voice recording of Cornelius that, as punishment for questioning the economic viability of moist towelettes, the first player to reach the "Throne of Hawkthorne" at the end of the game will win Pierce's inheritance. The group rejects this and vow to give Pierce his inheritance, but Gilbert, taking on the role of the eighth player, reveals that he intends to do so. With complete knowledge of the game he easily kills the group's characters, sending them back to respawn at the start.

After restarting, the group arrives at a town where Abed falls in love with an NPC named Hilda. While exploring the town, Britta mixes random ingredients in a cauldron into what she assumes is a strength potion. Meanwhile, Annie and Shirley accidentally kill the town's blacksmith and his wife (Hilda's parents), then steal everything in the shop and burn it down to cover their tracks. Gilbert appears, having leveled up, and begins easily attacking the group again. However, after Britta dies, Jeff tricks Gilbert into drinking the potion she made and dies when it turns out to be poison. Starting back from the beginning again, Gilbert ruthlessly decides to use cheat codes, turning his character invincible.

The group continues playing, while Abed stays back in town to help Hilda rebuild her life. After beating most of the game, the group finds the "white crystal" needed to enter the castle on the last level. They are again confronted by Gilbert, who kills them and takes the crystal for himself. Jeff and Pierce realize he is cheating and physically confront him outside of the game, where Gilbert reveals that he is Cornelius's son and Pierce's half-brother, the product of Cornelius assaulting Pierce's childhood nanny's "hot cousin"; he claims that he has a greater right to the fortune than Pierce, having been more of a son to Cornelius. The group restart and return to the town where they left Abed to discover that he has built an enormous castle with Hilda and has an endless amount of resources to build whatever they desire.

Gilbert arrives at the final stage of the game, where he is greeted by a recording from Cornelius. He "congratulates" Gilbert on his victory but says that in order to claim the inheritance, Gilbert must agree to sign a document disavowing any family ties to Cornelius and keeping his infidelity secret. Gilbert refuses, prompting Cornelius to start an all-out war of destruction against him.

The study group arrives heavily armed with new equipment and defeats Cornelius, at the cost of their lives. Gilbert is left to claim the inheritance but rejects it, believing he does not deserve the prize. The study group decides to forfeit, Pierce having decided that Gilbert, having put up with Cornelius' humiliating racism and selfishness, endured worse abuse, and that makes him more worthy of taking the inheritance. Gilbert thanks them and beats the game, winning the inheritance. He offers to treat the study group to margaritas as thanks, and bonds with Pierce as half brothers. As the group leaves, Abed sneaks back to copy Hilda from the game onto a flash drive before leaving.

The series, set in 2008, depicts three Israeli soldiers who were captured 17 years previously while on a secret mission with their unit in Lebanon.

Season 1

The story begins with the soldiers' return home after years of negotiations for their freedom. Nimrode Klein and Uri Zach return alive, along with the remains of Amiel Ben-Horin.

The series explores the reintegration of Nimrode and Uri into a society which has made them national icons, and into an interrupted family life, while working through the trauma of having been held captive and tortured. They must deal with partners who waited or moved on, children who have grown up without them, and parents who have died.

They also have to undergo psychiatric evaluations and military debriefings. When a military psychiatrist finds discrepancies in their stories, an investigation is launched to discover what they are hiding.

Season 2

After flashbacks to events at a school in Metula in 1990, and to the period shortly after Nimrode and Uri's release, the second season rejoins the story a few days after the events at the end of the first season.

Initially disagreeing on what to do with their discovery that Amiel may still be alive, Nimrode and Uri take the information to Haim and Iris, who start to pursue their own (unofficial) investigation into what happened to Amiel—with unanticipated consequences.

Alongside this, the series continues to follow Nimrode and Uri (and the soldiers' families) as they pick up the pieces of their lives post-release. It also depicts Amiel for the first time as a living character—rather than in the visions experienced by Amiel's younger sister, Yael—and follows his new life as Yusuf, a Muslim, in Syria.

A guy who had been selling a guitar seems interested in Park. Based on the strange girlfriend stuff, Adams thinks Henry has a drug problem. House sends her to search his home. At Henry's place, they find what looks like a dead woman. It turns out to be a custom-made sex doll. Henry is aware she isn't real, telling the docs that the doll is "better than a person." The team discusses whether Henry has a neurological issue. House points out that every member of the team has a "sex doll" of some kind, something that is preventing them from having a relationship. House wants them to look at the doll for bacteria. Emily tells House she is getting married and very happy. Adams and Chase find a mass in the doll's stomach. Henry quickly gives the thumbs up for them to cut open the doll.

Wilson tells House he is silly for hanging onto his call girl. Park and Adams argue over Chase and the idea of one of them dating him. Taub and one of his daughters meet a woman in the supermarket. Adams returns the doll, telling Henry she thinks the mass was just an air bubble. He drops to the floor in pain. Henry has issues with his lungs. House is spying on Emily's fiancé, with the idea being to have Dominika seduce him. Taub tells House about the new woman. They decide to look into the doll's silicon degrading. Molly shows up at the hospital and sees the doll. Henry tells her the doll is Amy and she immediately leaves. Taub admits to the new woman that he lied in the supermarket about the mother of his daughter being deceased. She accuses him of using a different baby to seduce her.

Henry envisions the doll coming to life and seducing him. But during the fantasy, she begins bleeding from the stomach. The team immediately begin working on him and realize that he is hallucinating because of liver failure. The team concludes that since Henry's doll cost $2,000 more than it is supposed to, he must have customized her somehow. Wilson tells House the way he's acting with Emily means he wants more from women down the road. Dominika attempts to seduce a man who turns out to be Emily's brother. Henry tells Adams that he had the company model the doll after a woman he had dated for four months. She broke his heart, which seems to be why he sought out the doll. Henry complains of a stiff neck and starts vomiting. Adams thinks he has meningitis. Emily confesses to House that she's not leaving the business; she's just leaving him. She's worried about him being married and tells House she thinks Dominika has feelings for him.

House figures out the problem was the Neti pot his ex gave him. It was delivering tap water to his brain, causing the infection. Henry is feeling better and mentions selling his doll online. He even asks Adams for her E-mail address. She turns him down, telling him to ask Molly out. Taub tells Park to ask out the band guy. Adams asks Chase out on a date. He says "I don't think that's really good for me right now." Park spends time with the guitar guy and they sing a duet. Henry still seems to be with his doll.

House gets a letter from immigration. Instead of showing it to Dominika, he throws it in the trash.

The team treats a young Hmong-American boy in respiratory distress who is having dreams of a night hag, which makes House think it could lead to a case of SUNDS. His grandfather (George Cheung) is convinced he has been possessed by an evil spirit. House, after hiding from Dominika the fact that she has received her green card and is free to leave him, has to confront his feelings for her and the sudden increased intimacy of their relationship. However, it appears that Dominika may have been keeping things from House as well. Park and Chase start having erotic dreams about each other and those spill out into the dynamic among the team members. Wilson reveals that he has cancer, which leaves House stunned.

The team takes on the case of Dr. Peter Treiber, a pathologist at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital suddenly begins slicing his own scalp open during an autopsy. Treiber knows too much about the hospital staff to trust any of the physicians, thus adding to the drama. The only person he does respect is House.

Wilson has decided not to wait around Princeton-Plainsboro for his test results. He buys a new car and convinces House, by threatening to drug him and take him along anyway, to go on an unannounced road trip with him. Leaving their phones behind, this results in House's "mysterious" disappearance. House decides to take advantage of Wilson's condition to get some sympathy from the people they meet.

With House absent, the team has to figure out how to treat Treiber while making him believe that House is calling all the shots. It becomes even more difficult when it turns out that the patient has a grudge against Chase, and this just forces Chase to confront his own choices in life.

The team takes on the case of Derrick (guest star Skylar Astin), a 19-year-old college student who had a mysterious nosebleed during cheerleading practice. As they search his room they find a hidden photograph of a young boy. The patient confesses it's a picture of his brother, who died ten years ago. He hid the picture from his mother, who has always refused to talk about the tragedy. The team thinks he might be suffering from schizophrenia, since Derrick claims to hear his deceased brother's voice in his head. After an MRI reveals no clue, House solves the case by diagnosing the patient with a small artery near his eardrum that normally disappears during the early months of development. The patient is doubtful about an operation because he may never hear his brother's voice again and drinks ammonia to avoid treatment. This enrages House who is desperate from Wilson's situation and tries to strangle the patient. The patient eventually agrees to an operation. As he wakes up, his mother starts showing him pictures of his deceased brother.

Due to his cancer giving him only five months to live, Wilson becomes resigned to his fate and does not want any further treatment, making House very angry. He tries several methods to make Wilson change his mind, including drugging him and administering chemo while Wilson is unconscious. After a serious talk with Thirteen, House appears to give in and takes Wilson to dinner. After dinner, Wilson looks ready to change his mind, until he realizes that it was yet another plot by House and runs away in distress. Without Wilson as his prank subject, House turns to Foreman and clogs the plumbing of a hospital toilet, causing severe flooding to the point that a ceiling collapses, injuring Adams and Park and damaging an expensive MRI machine. Wilson feels responsible for House's state of mind and offers to spend his last five months with House in a pleasant way. As they plan a hiking trip, Foreman comes in and tells them an investigation into the flooding situation revealed that House was responsible for the damage. Due to the incident, House will probably have his parole revoked. He will have to go back to jail for the rest of his sentence, which amounts to six months - a month longer than Wilson is expected to live.

A narrator tells of the great wars that raged in Montana territory over the grazing of cattle versus sheep. Men on both sides of the battle died, but eventually it was the sheep herders who were driven out. Morgan Lane (Flynn), an Australian sheepman, rides to Montana territory in 1871. He and his men come across a sign declaring that any sheep herders crossing the line into the area will be shot on sight as the surrounding plains are strictly for cattle grazing. The men set up camp for the night just before the border. During the night their young unarmed Mexican watchman is shot dead by a local gang of cattle raisers.

The following morning, after Morgan and his men have buried the body, a travelling peddler known as Papa Schultz (Sakall) comes by. Morgan coerces Papa Shultz into pretending they are partners and they ride into town together so that Morgan can find out who the local ruffians are. In town he passes himself off as a peddler and discovers the gang in the saloon. Suspicious of him because he is a newcomer in the town, Slim Reeves challenges him to a pistol duel. Slim attempts to cheat by drawing before the count of three but Morgan proves his skills by shooting the gun out of his hand. Morgan discovers that there are three chief landowners in the area. The main two are Maria Singleton (Smith) and her fiancé Rod Ackroyd, who are both vehemently opposed to sheep herders in their area. The third is a man named Forsythe.

Morgan rides over to the Singleton ranch with a guitar as a present for Maria and the two get on well and have a sing-a-long together. Rod is suspicious of Morgan and is in a foul mood after being thrown from a wild stallion earlier in the afternoon. Maria invites Morgan to join them for dinner and Morgan reveals to them that he wishes to purchase some of their land. They believe he wants it for cattle grazing, and Rod makes a bet with him for the land. If Morgan can stay on the wild horse for exactly one minute, he can have the land. Rod's right-hand man Slim cuts the stirrup so that Morgan falls from the horse a few seconds before the minute mark. Maria, feeling sorry for Morgan, offers to rent him a piece of her land that would have belonged to her deceased brother. The following day she discovers that Morgan is a sheep herder and is livid at his betrayal.

During the night, Morgan rounds up the minority cattlemen in the area and enlists the help of the banker and Forsythe to fight another war with the cattle owners. Forsythe invites everyone to his home for a party and announces their intentions to fight. Maria confronts Morgan about his deceit and he tears the lease up and gives it back to her. She shares a kiss with him but then discovers that he intends to wage war against her and her friends and she becomes angry and leaves the party. Slim shoots and kills Forsythe which invokes a fight between Morgan and Slim, during which Slim fires his own gun and unintentionally kills himself.

Morgan, his men and the minority cattle owners are joined by the sheriff as they plan to take the sheep across the territory. The sheriff warns them that Rod and his men have organized a cattle stampede to trample the men and their sheep. Morgan and his men head off the stampede and manage to turn it, during which battle both the sheriff and Rod are killed. Morgan and his men intend to move the sheep through the territory by walking them through the main street of the town.

One of the men rides back to the Singleton ranch and informs Maria of Rod's death and Morgan's plans, claiming there is no one to stop him now. Maria takes a gun and rides into town where she stands in the middle of the main street and waits for Morgan. Morgan dismounts his horse when he sees Maria and walks towards her but she threatens to shoot him. He continues bringing the sheep along and she shoots him in the shoulder and he collapses on the ground. Seeing what she has done, she drops the gun and runs to Morgan, helping him and proving her affection. They bicker over how stubborn the other is and then share a kiss.

Colorado, 1865: A gold assayer is killed and Lane Waldron is seen leaving, so a posse goes after him and turns into a lynch mob. Lane claims he had a sample from his mine examined by the assayer, but denies shooting him. A noose around Lane's neck is shot in half at the last second by an unseen marksman.

The rescuer turns out to be Brett Sherwood, a Confederate captain from the Civil War. In a hideout he leaves a gun as a test, and when Lane grabs it and aims it at him Brett reveals that it's not loaded. Lane's sweetheart, Chris, turns up as well, so Brett takes both of them captive.

In a struggle, Lane's leg is broken. Brett does everything in his power to help him. He goes to get a doctor. Quantrill and his raiders turn up, and his sergeant, Randall, tries to torture Lane into revealing the location of his gold mine. Brett and Chris return with a doctor, who operates on Lane.

A band of Indians engages Quantrill's men in battle. Lane is shot by a Ute, who is killed by Chris. As he lies dying, Lane says he wants Chris and Brett to have his gold mine. Brett confesses that he was the one who had killed the assayer, who had been trying to cheat him and pulled a gun on him.

Ladd stars as a soldier in the French Foreign Legion who stumbles across a lost city in the desert mountains of Algeria in North Africa.

Bruno (Manuel Vignau), after seeing his former girlfriend Laura (Mercedes Quinteros) happily together with a new boyfriend named Pablo (Lucas Ferraro), grows jealous and starts plotting to win her back with his friend Victor serving as a partner in crime and a sounding board for his plans. He initially plans to sleep with Laura behind Pablo's back and convince her to get back together with him but when that plan fails and he hears that Pablo has slept with another man in the past, he comes up with a "Plan B" of seducing Pablo and getting him to break up with Laura.

Bruno easily develops a friendship with Pablo, bonding with him over common interests and memories from their youth. He then starts to push the boundaries of their friendship, kissing Pablo on a dare from his friend Ana and then on a made-up excuse of needing practice for an acting role. His plan succeeds in getting Pablo to gradually fall for him, but it becomes apparent at the same time that his own feelings for Pablo have grown stronger than he planned for.

Eventually, Pablo learns about Bruno's plan and is heartbroken. He awkwardly tries to have sex with Bruno but then backs out of it and calls off their friendship. Despite now being free to resume his relationship with Laura, Bruno ultimately breaks up with her and confesses his love to Pablo. Pablo, in return, shows Bruno that he kept a photo of him in his lost wallet, implying that he was attracted to Bruno even before Bruno began his Plan B. The film ends with them kissing and heading off to the bedroom together.

One year after Sam (Jared Padalecki) entered Lucifer's Cage, Dean has been living a normal life with Lisa and Ben, no longer hunting demons. He hangs out with his neighbor, Sid (Russell Porter), but refuses to speak about his past as a hunter. He begins noticing strange occurrences in his neighborhood such as hearing screaming and seeing claw marks on doors. He is confronted by an hallucination of Azazel (Fredric Lehne) until Sam appears and sedates him.

Having regained consciousness, Sam reveals he mysteriously was freed from Lucifer's Cage a year ago. Throughout that time, he hunted along with his resurrected grandfather Samuel Campbell (Mitch Pileggi) and their cousins, Gwen (Jessica Heafey), Christian (Corin Nemec) and Mark (David Paetkau). They've been hunting a Djinn that wants revenge after they killed one of them. The Djinn kills another Campbell member who was sent to watch Ben and Lisa. Sensing they're in danger, Dean places them with Bobby Singer (Jim Beaver) -- who also knew Sam was resurrected a year ago—until everything is safe

They see the Djinn wreaking chaos and try to capture him. Dean is attacked and gets hallucinations of Mary's death reversing Ben and Lisa. Sam rescues Dean and kills other Djinns. When they leave, Samuel and the Campbells capture another Djinn. Sam tries to convince Dean to return to hunting but he refuses, although states that they will keep in touch.

Written in the Victorian era, the story is set in the fictional village of West Poley where water from a small river is used to run a watermill, but the miller's apprentice (a child) is badly beaten. The apprentice and two other children enter nearby caves and discover a previously unknown passage leading to a place where the river can easily be diverted into a different channel. After diverting it, they find the river now flows through another village (East Poley) and the West Poley mill can no longer operate. The children then stage a magic trick for the children of East Poley, claiming to be able to redirect the river at will. However, they discover that not all is well in East Poley after the redirection (for example a landowner tries to turn a poorer lady's garden into a mill pond) and so they decide to divert the river down a third channel and permanently seal off the first two channels so that the river will flow through neither village. The third channel however turns out to be a cul de sac and the cave begins filling with water. The children decide they have been meddling too much and begin removing their stones but are unable to complete this work before the water traps them. The miller arrives (together with the shoemaker) via an alternative entrance that was not previously known to be connected to the same cave; the miller falls into the water and nearly drowns, and his apprentice saves him after making him promise not to beat him again. Next the miller wishes to have priority on the rescue rope, which the child grants in exchange for his complete release. All are saved, and then the pressure of the accumulating water becomes strong enough to forcibly reopen its original channel and everything goes back to normal. However the details of the cave are now public knowledge, and the adults of the two villages proceed to engage in their own squabbles over the river, redirecting it several times. To end this, one of the original children obtains a small amount of gunpowder and, using his intimate knowledge of the cave to position it effectively, seals both access routes beyond all hope of being re-opened. All then settle down to a quiet life.

A hardened gun runner attempts to take a shipment to Cuba to assist with the rebellion against Spain.

Originally titled ''Who Wants To Be a Terrorist'', the film follows 10 wannabe terrorists that compete in a series of challenges to win $1 million.

The death of a nightclub magician's assistant leads through a crippled general and his quack, to employment opportunities and secret documents. Steed enlists the help of Venus to root out the criminals by becoming the new assistant.

A young couple, Catherine and Francois, are attempting to escape from a figure who eventually catches and drags Francois to his death. It also grabs hold of Catherine just before she arrives at a monolith in a grassland.

Four American college friends, Sophie, Ben, Jeni, and David are vacationing in the Irish countryside at Sophie's behest. The driver, Ian, lets them go at the monolith seen in the beginning. Sophie, who is a history bachelor, takes note of the monolith's symbol before heading to a local bar with the others, where they meet with a friendly old man, Hamish, who tells them about the history of the village: it was formerly a mining center for gold obtained in a nearby cavern, but when the gold ran out, the population dwindled. The four agree to be taken to a cottage where they can begin hitchhiking to the cavern, though they are wary of Hamish and his grumpy son, Sean.

That night, Jeni investigates a ruckus outside and glimpses a figure sprinting past the window. She wakes the others, who discover that Hamish and Sean had locked them up. A figure suddenly enters the cottage through the fireplace and forcibly takes Jeni's gold earring. After a brief struggle which sees David's leg being bitten by the monster, the four escape the cottage and race to the village hall, where they hide in the cellar. From a mythology book, Sophie learns that the monster is a Tuatha Dé Danann, also known as a leprechaun, who owns the gold that the villagers sought after. Hamish and the villagers refused to return the gold and didn't want to leave the village. In return for the gold, the villagers have to sacrifice at least two humans each year as "compensation". The leprechaun lusts after gold, but it can be repelled by a certain symbol, the same one carved into the monolith, which serves as a barrier beyond which the being cannot get out. There was another monolith symbol barrier at the leprechaun's cave; however, when the villagers mined the cave and took the gold, the cave collapsed, causing the leprechaun to escape 15 years ago. Hamish and Sean are joined by their friend Ian outside, where Hamish tells him of his suspicions of his son becoming disillusioned with their sacrifice plot.

The four are confronted by Hamish, who confirms that the villagers sacrifice tourists each year to avoid having to sacrifice themselves, and Sean, who has grown weary of the unjustified sacrifices, eventually lets them go, while Hamish finds Ian impaled on some farm equipment in a shed. He escapes as the creature kills Ian. The four take the offer to escape from an old woman, Mary, who is revealed to be Hamish's accomplice. The four are then tied to trees as offerings for the leprechaun. The monster arrives and rips out Jeni's golden tongue ring. David manages to get the leprechaun away from Jeni, but the beast slashes his torso, also cutting the rope, allowing him to break free and release the other three before he is attacked and killed. The remaining trio head back to the cottage to set a trap to kill the monster, but the leprechaun tricks Sophie and Ben into striking Jeni with their axes, killing her.

Sophie and Ben fetch Hamish's truck but are cornered by the leprechaun inside the village hall. The leprechaun eventually gets hold of Ben and kills him by ripping his spine out. Though cornered by Hamish, who is still intent on sacrificing her, Sophie is saved by Sean, who pushes Hamish into the cellar out of guilt for letting his father and the villagers sacrifice so many people over the years. The leprechaun kills Hamish in the cellar, much to Sean's devastation (Sean is never seen again; presumably, the leprechaun killed him too). Meanwhile, Sophie boards Hamish's truck but crashes midway while trying to avoid the leprechaun. She resumes her escape on foot, and when the leprechaun finds her, she distracts it with gold coins, then kills it using Francois' knife, which he had left in the prologue. Sophie finally manages to cross the monolith to safety just as three leprechauns are revealed running in the tall grass before continuing her escape.

During a raid on an English encampment by the Vikings from Flake, Vicky frees a bunch of Inuit. After they flee, he notices that one of them left a diary behind. After close inspection of the diary, Vicky realises that the "Chefs Amulet" worn by Halvar and passed down after generations is actually the key to the "Ice Fortress" in Greenland, where the treasure of the gods allegedly is hidden. At night however, Halvar gets captured by Sven the Terrible, so Vicky, as his descendant, has to guide the Vikings to the "Canyon of Odin", where Svens fortress is located. With them comes a girl called Svenja, which later turns out to be Svens daughter. After freeing Halvar and escaping through the canyon to Greenland, they arrive at the Ice Fortress shortly after Sven. It turns out you can only find the treasure if you solve the riddle in the diary. Vicky is forced to solve the riddle for Sven, which grants him access to the treasure: Mjölnir (Thor's hammer). Sven then proceeds to taze Halvar, and heat up the environment. As he tries to silence Halver for good however, Vicky pulls a shield in front of him. The lightning deflects of the shield and hits Sven instead, causing him to dangle of an edge. He tells his daughter to finish the two. Svenja however, who has become frenemies with Vicky, throws the hammer into a chasm. Halvar helps Sven up with a few requirements, and together they escape the melting Ice Fortress. The Vikings give Svens tied up crew as slaves to the Inuit.

On a grey day in Glasgow, Scotland, three brothers and their disabled sister meet to arrange their mother, Mrs Flynn's, funeral. After they go to a public house and an incident occurs which separates the four and causes one to go on the search for a gun and one to pass off their stab wound as a work injury. The eldest brother stays overnight at the church to prepare for the funeral as their sister's wheelchair breaks down in a dark alleyway, causing her to be stranded and alone, desperate for help. What occurs is a journey of virtue and sin for each of them that will prove to them how much they truly miss their mother.

The story this time still takes place on the Ark Arena, but 10,000 years before the events of the first game. The game follows the protagonist Vieg who is partnered with his pregnant wife Vahti. Along with them are Vahti's parents Olgar and Rachel, Ayuta and Kushina, as well as Cyllis and Yorath. The Agent tells them the same set up that was in the original Chaos Rings and Vieg challenges him. Olgar joins up and they try to take on the Agent and lose badly. The Agent calls the Executioner and then Vahti and Rachel step in to help out. The Agent relents, saying that he can't afford to lose so many of them so soon and calls off the Executioner.

Vahti goes into labor shortly after and Rachel helps. Vieg and Olgar team up and find the first two rings. At that point, the Agent tells them the first matches will be Ayuta/Kushina vs Cyllis/Yorath and Olgar/Rachel vs Vieg/Vahti. Vieg and Olgar protest that Vahti is in labor and ask that the first match be held off until Vieg's child is born. The Agent agrees, saying that their offspring is important. Everyone chips in to help and Vahti soon gives birth to a baby boy, Ohm. The Agent then tells everyone it's time for the matches. Rachel stays to help Vahti recover, but everyone else leaves. Olgar tells Vieg he has a plan, but it's a long shot. Upon getting to the arena, Olgar tells Vieg that his plan is for them to fight to the death and see which is stronger.

Vieg reluctantly defeats Olgar, however when the Executioner shows up to finish the job, Olgar attacks. Olgar's plan was to lure out the Executioner since it is weaker than the Agent and take it on separately. Vieg joins up and they finish off the Executioner.

Meanwhile, Kushina has been killed by Cyllis and Yorath. Ayuta is sobbing over her and Cyllis reveals that her target is Theia, Ayuta's original partner. She and Yorath butcher Ayuta to death offscreen.

When Olgar and Vieg return together, the Ark is quiet. They go to check on Vahti and Rachel and find Rachel's clothes in a gory mess in the room. The Agent calls them and Olgar and Vieg stand off against him, thinking he killed Rachel. The Agent denies having anything to do with it, but says that the situation has changed and it has no use for them anymore. Olgar and Vieg fight and are losing against the Agent when Cyllis and Yorath show up. Yorath kills the Agent in one hit and the Agent comments that it recognizes a genetic pattern in them and can't seem to contact the Master before it dies.

Cyllis and Yorath tell Vieg and Olgar that they killed Rachel and have Vahti and Ohm hostage. They tell Olgar and Vieg that they will kill Ohm and Vahti if they can't kill 4 great beasts before 12 bells ring. Olgar leaves Vieg alone to kill the first beast while he gives Rachel a proper burial. While Vieg is going solo, Yorath shows up and tells Vieg the whole story about the Ark arena and reveals that the monsters they are all facing are all called "Congloms" and they are all born from Cyllis. He also reveals that he is a Conglom as well.

Olgar rejoins Vieg and they go after the next 3 beasts. Vieg brings Olgar up to speed on what Yorath told him. Yorath pops in and gives them Ohm back. They have Piu Piu take care of Ohm while they continue. Yorath later pops in and tells them that Cyllis has prepared a surprise for them with the last beast. They find that the last beast cannot be damaged by solo attacks and they have to use Pair attacks to damage him. After he is defeated, three more pop up. Olgar tells Vieg that he'll hold them off while Vieg goes to get Vahti.

Vieg pursues Cyllis to the Conglom Plant where he's confronted with both her and Yorath. Cyllis shows him Vahti and Ohm (who she's reclaimed after Yorath gave him up) suspended over lava. Vieg fights Cyllis and Yorath and when Cyllis dies she retreats leaving Yorath to deal with Vieg. Vieg loses the fight and when Yorath is closing in for the kill he narrowly evades a jump attack from behind by Olgar. Olgar fights against Yorath and despite being outmatched Olgar refuses to die and eventually Yorath is hurt badly enough that he has to escape. At that point, the final bell tolls and Yorath tells Vieg and Olgar that they are too late. Both Vahti and Ohm drop down towards the lava. Olgar grabs a floor panel and throws it under them, wedging it into a metal strut. He then jumps after them and grabs them, but the floor panel gives way and they all fall into the lava.

Olgar lives, knee deep in the lava and carries Vahti and Ohm to safety. As he's sinking into the lava, he tells Vieg that he's to take Olgar's old job and name as captain and that Olgar himself will go back to his old name Dante and then sinks the rest of the way into the lava.

We flash forward to Vieg, now Olgar, neglecting Vahti and Ohm to fight solo and make himself stronger. He is angry that he wasn't able to do more to help. Vahti calms him down and they agree to go together to finish the fight with Cyllis. They go further into the Conglom Plant and eventually confront Yorath. This time, they have gotten strong enough to defeat him and he yields to them. They then get to Cyllis and fight and defeat her. As a last-ditch measure, Cyllis spawns a Conglom that's a beastlike combination of Dante and Rachel. Olgar and Vahti defeat it and Theia announces that the Original Door is now open and Cyllis promises that the conflict isn't over, but Dante/Rachel hold her back while Olgar and Vahti escape.

When Olgar and Vahti go out of the Original Door, they find that they are on the deck of the Ark, which is still going back in time. Cyllis breaks through the deck and tells them that Theia opened the Original Door too early and that this spacetime outside the Ark will cease to exist soon. Cyllis blocks their exit back into the Ark while Olgar and Vahti defeat her. She still blocks their exit, though, until Yorath shows up and warps them out. Cyllis and Yorath die together when the Ark drops back into normal spacetime. Now, Olgar, Vahti, and Ohm are back on Earth 10,000 years in the past and are told that they will be the new Original Couple and need to rebuild a new human race capable of defeating the Qualia. Theia tells them that their descendants will be the ones that bring about the final battle and warps off.

''Incident at Hawk's Hill'' opens in 1870, on Hawk's Hill, the farm of William and Esther MacDonald, set in the Canadian Prairies about twenty miles north of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. The MacDonalds have four children. The fourth child, six-year-old Ben, is "the greatest problem of the MacDonald family". Highly intelligent but mute around most people, Ben especially loves his older brother John and mother, Esther. He feels more comfortable with the wild animals on the farm than with most people. The MacDonalds' new neighbor is George Burton, a thief and bully who is always accompanied by his mean dog, Lobo. In the vicinity is a huge, pregnant female badger, which is preparing tunnels and a sett or den in a rock outcropping, before the birth of her offspring.

One day, Ben follows a prairie chicken and becomes lost away from home. He shelters in a rocky area, where he encounters the badger sow. She is hiding after being injured in one of Burton's traps. While she was trapped, her babies died for lack of food. She begins to bring food to Ben, and he begins imitating her movement and sounds. He starts to sleep by day and follow her hunting at night. One night when the dog Lobo attacks the badger, Ben bites the dog, distracting it, and the badger kills it. Despite the badger's attempts to feed Ben, he begins to fade from starvation.

The search for Ben lasts two months. All but his family believe that the boy likely drowned in the nearby Red River. But Ben's father vows never to stop looking, and the entire family hunts for the boy daily. John finally discovers Ben among the rocks; when he reaches toward him, Ben reacts like a wild animal, growling and biting. John subdues Ben and takes him home.

The mother badger follows, and eventually becomes uneasily accepted by the family as Ben's protector. As Ben begins to talk about his experiences, he becomes more comfortable with people. He even looks forward to going to school. But as Burton comes to their homestead, he sees the family badger. Thinking he's doing the right thing he shoots the badger injuring it badly. A show-down between his father and George Burton over the badger finally unites Ben and his father. Ben's adventure is re-interpreted by local whites as a parable of God's care for the lost, and by the First Nations as a tale bringing honor to their chief.

The novel follows the six "chosen ones" Minoo, Rebecka, Vanessa, Anna-Karin, Ida, and Linnéa, all of whom are first-year students at the same secondary school. Ida and Linnéa are not featured as point of view characters in the novel for thematic and narrative purposes. The characters soon come off as unreliable narrators as their description of themselves and other characters don't match each other, such as Minoo's comments on Rebecka's beauty and Anna-Karin's on her own weight. The apparent suicide of Linnéa's "brother in all but blood" Elias becomes the start of a series of strange events in the town.

The comedic adventures of three Los Angelenos working in the crime scene clean up business.

A man (Axel Wedekind) wakes up in a strange concrete vault after a night of drinking and realizes he is trapped. With the help of an unlikely companion (Rungano Nyoni) who is also trapped, they must find a way out before they starve to death.

The film tells the story of a small group of survivors in post-apocalyptic Germany in the year 2016. Solar flares have destroyed the earth's atmosphere, and global temperatures have risen by ten degrees Celsius. The sun is so hot that traveling outside during daylight hours is dangerous. Crops have failed, little water or food is available, and social order is broken. The film tells the story of a young woman named Marie, her younger sister Leonie, and Phillip, a young man who is also romantically connected with Marie. The trio travels through the dry wasteland in a Volvo station wagon with metal mesh on the windows. To avoid the sun's harsh rays, newspaper and cardboard have been taped over the inside of the windows, except for a narrow strip for the driver to see. They are heading for the mountains, where rumor has it that water can still be found. They scavenge wrecked cars and gas stations for extra gas, water (from heating pipes and toilets), and food, always alert for hostile survivors who might attack them.

When the trio finds a ruined gas station, Phillip tries to obtain gasoline from the station's underground tanks and abandoned vehicles while the women scavenge for supplies in the buildings. While the trio are working away, a hooded man steals food and water from their car and then holds Leonie as a hostage. After Phillip and the attacker fight and the aggressor is subdued, they agree to a truce of sorts. The attacker, Tom, tells them he is a mechanic. Phillip agrees to bring Tom along as a passenger in the car, on their search for water, if Tom will repair the heat-damaged engine. The quartet drive along through the roads towards the mountains until they stop due to a huge metal structure that is blocking the roadway. The group work together to move the blockage and then three of the group climb down a hill to look at a wrecked car for items to scavenge, leaving Leonie in the car alone.

Suddenly, the group hear Leonie's screams, and they realize the blocked road was a trap. Leonie is abducted by carjackers. Although the others try to help her, it is too late. When the trio of remaining survivors reunite in the woods, Tom convinces them to try to free Leonie. Tom spots smoke in the distance and encourages the group to investigate. The smoke is coming from a large fire at a survivors' encampment, where Leonie and other hostages are kept chained up. Tom convinces Marie and Phillip, who are both terrified of the abductors, that they should throw a Molotov cocktail to create a diversion so that Marie can take the car back and rescue Leonie. The rescue attempt misfires; Marie manages to get the car started and escape with Phillip, but Phillip could not break Leonie's chains so the pair leave without her; moreover, Phillip's foot is badly injured in a fight with one of the abductors. Phillip encourages Marie to consider Leonie a lost cause, but Marie insists on trying to rescue her. Marie leaves alone to search for Leonie. Marie falls asleep in a ruined church, and is awakened by a middle-aged woman named Elisabeth. Elisabeth offers Marie water and invites her to come to her family farm as a guest.

Marie sleeps in Elisabeth's barn, only to awake to find herself locked in. Peering out the slats of the barn, she sees what looks like abducted captives being led about. Elisabeth opens the locked door and tells Marie that Phillip will be used like livestock, in the absence of other food and that Marie and Leonie will be forced to marry the sons of the farmers. When Elisabeth's son Micha opens the door, Marie engages in kissing with him, but then strikes him with a large piece of wood. Injured, Micha tries to choke her, but then Leonie smashes a heavy object on him, knocking him out. Leonie escapes from the barn and hides in the woods, but Marie is bound and put in the slaughterhouse after refusing to eat human flesh during dinner. Marie witnesses Phillip's execution, but manages to cut her ziplock cuffs and escape. She opens a locked door in the barn, where she finds many captives, including Tom. The captives flee from the farm, with the family in pursuit. Tom fights with and dispatches several of the farmers. Marie manages to escape and runs through the woods in search of Leonie. When she finds her, Leonie is being bound by one of Elisabeth's adult sons. Elisabeth confronts Marie, who kills her with a captive bolt pistol she stole from the slaughterhouse. While the adult son mourns Elisabeth, Marie releases Leonie. The two sisters and Tom flee to the mountains, where they find water. Up in the sky, they see birds. Looking over the ridge at a chain of hills in hope of a better fate there, they can see nothing but even more blighted wasteland down in the valley.

The main character, Matthew Palmer, inherits his father's house in London. Palmer learns that the doctor John Dee, an alchemist who worked for Elizabeth I, used to live in the house. Once he finds out about one of the previous owners, he sets out to find out more about the mysterious alchemist. The second chapter then moves into Dee talking about his life in England during the Renaissance. The novel is a mix of the two men's stories as Palmer continues to find out more about the doctor. As the investigation continues, it is revealed that both men are similar in that they are both selfish and would rather be left to themselves. Several occurrences that happen within the house appear in both time periods. In one instance, Palmer breaks a pigeon's wings by throwing a book of Dee's works at it. Later on, a wing is held in the mouth of Dee's cat. The house is not of one time period, but of multiple dimensions of time.

Dee searches for a way to find gold and create gold with alchemy, but becomes self-centered in the process. Matthew Palmer doesn't care for his father and mother, describing his world as one without love.

This book begins six months after the events of the preceding novel, when Carter Kane and Sadie Kane travel to the 51st nome, Dallas, with their initiates and meet J.D. Grissom, the leader of the nome. They tell him that they need a magic scroll from the King Tut exhibit at the Dallas Museum of Art, or his nome will be attacked and destroyed by the forces of Apophis, the god of chaos. In three days, Apophis will rise, swallow the sun, and destroy the world. Sadie sees a face in the wall which tells them they instead need a golden box. However, the nome is attacked, and the scroll is destroyed. To save everyone from getting killed, Sadie summons Ma'at, repulsing the forces of chaos, but blacking out. When she awakens, she finds that the 51st nome has been destroyed, and all of its magicians killed. At the 21st nome in Brooklyn, they discover that the golden box Sadie was told to retrieve is a shadow box of King Tut.

Horus visits Carter and hints at a connection between shadows and statues, leading Carter to suspect that there is a better way to execrate Apophis, and decides to consult Thoth. He tells the others at dinner and makes plans to find Thoth that night, but Sadie makes him go to their school dance. During the dance, Sadie meets with Anubis, and he suggests that the shadow is like a computer backup drive, but Shu, the god of wind and Anubis' great-grandfather separates them. Sadie gets an idea about using Bes' sheut to give him back his ren and restore the god's soul.

Leonid, the Russian magician they met last year comes with bad news and reveals he has secretly been learning the Path of Shu, which is forbidden. Sadie takes him to the First Nome to meet Amos. He tells them that the rebels, led by Sarah Jacobi and Kwai, have teamed up with Apophis. Amos tells Zia and Sadie to visit Bes. Meanwhile, Carter and Walt go visit Thoth, who is being attacked by demons. Walt and Carter repulse them, and Thoth helps them understand who Setne is. They realize they have to visit the Land of the Dead at his trial and persuade Osiris to help them.

When Zia and Sadie are visiting the House of Rest, Sadie realizes that Amos is learning the Path of Set, who he was once forced to host. Tawaret, the hippopotamus goddess, tells them where Bes once hid his sheut. Carter, Sadie, Zia, and Walt meet and exchange information. They meet Osiris, and persuade him to let Setne go with them. Zia and Carter manage to help Setne retrieve the Book of Thoth from the Temple of the Apis bull. It is revealed that Ra, or more specifically, his morning incarnation, Khepri has chosen Zia as a host. She manages to survive but later Setne tricks them by giving orders to the captain to kill them and at the same time bringing them to the Land of Demons.

Meanwhile, Sadie and Walt visit the goddess Neith, who tells them she will help them if they can survive her hunt till sunset. They survive by using their shen amulets to split up and transfer to each other's side, and then in the end, right before sunset Sadie tricks Neith by mesmerizing her with tales of hunting jelly babies. Walt uses the rest of his energy to revive Bes' sheut, and dies before suddenly reviving as the host of Anubis. Sadie realizes that Walt had been inadvertently channeling the god's power for some time, explaining his mysterious death powers and Walt and Anubis had planned for Walt to become Anubis' host as a method of surviving the curse. Neith agrees to fight Apophis alongside the House of Life when he rises, before Sadie jumps into a portal made by Neith, leaving Walt behind.

Meanwhile, Carter and Zia can't interpret the map and have to let Setne go so he can lead them to the shadow. They allow him to cast a glamour on them, so they blend in and look like demons and follow him to the Sea of Chaos. There is a single pillar of Ma'at and a small dock, implied to be the first land that rose from Chaos, that survive the sea's effect, and to capture the shadow, they must be on the very edge of the dock while preventing themselves from getting sucked in. Their glamours start to fade and flicker. Setne is surprised that they are still alive as they approach closer, but Horus reveals to Carter that Ra's power channeled through Zia is protecting them. They manage to summon the serpent's shadow and trap it within the statue, but Setne betrays them, changing the glamour to a binding curse. He explains that he will bind the shadow within a figurine and blackmail Apophis with execration unless he does as he orders; he wants to destroy Egypt and all mention of his father (Ramses the Great) as well as most magicians, but not the entire world. However, there are some spells he can't cast since he's a ghost, so he needed Carter and Zia's help. Sadie drops out of a portal above them and manages to bind Setne and unbind Carter and Zia. Sadie manages to capture the shadow and they turn back to Setne, but he has disappeared, bindings and all. However, they have bigger problems: the shadow called for reinforcements and an army of demons are marching toward them .

Tawaret arrives with the gods from the Fourth House (Sunny Acres) and saves them from a tragic death. The fight gave the old gods and goddesses a purpose, and Bes has returned to his old ugly self, just in time to get them to Ra's sun barge, which is just passing by. When they get on board, Ra is still old and senile, but is reborn as a more fit old man once he merges with Zia.

They arrive in Giza to find Bast distracting Apophis as best as she can. Bes and Ra/Zia go to help her, while Sadie and Carter help to defend the First Nome. The rebel magicians are already there, guarding the door to the Hall of Ages, where Amos is trapped with the hit squad. The initiates of the Brooklyn house manage to fight their way through, with Walt/Anubis helping with his death magic. When they enter, Amos holds his own against the magicians because he is now the host of Set, and manages to keep Set's power in check. Sadie and Carter channel Isis and Horus and join the fight, but they're all subdued. The lead rebel, Sarah Jacobi, comes close to killing Sadie, but Walt/Anubis save her and bring forth the spirits of the dead to pull Jacobi into the Duat. Her lieutenant, Kwai channels Apophis, and is killed, but manages to cast one last spell "bring down" to destroy the Nome. Sadie channels Isis' power and manages to speak the most difficult Word of Power of all: "Ma'at" and restores the Nome, passing out in the process.

In order to do the execration, they must face the serpent. Carter/Horus call on the gods and with their help, they march out to meet Apophis, but he is fracturing reality and they're all separated on different levels of the Duat, fighting different parts of Apophis. Sadie and Carter manage to find where the serpent is strongest and though he manages to swallow Ra/Zia, they still cast the execration spell and destroy him forever. Zia escapes, blowing up Apophis' head in the process but the gods have to withdraw, as Chaos and Ma'at are so intertwined that by pushing away and banishing Chaos, the forces of Ma'at must also be pushed away.

Though Ra has returned, he offers Horus the throne, and Carter takes the throne of the Pharaoh in the First Nome as well. However, Carter chooses to focus on running Brooklyn House while leaving Amos as the Chief Lector to deal with the day-to-day affairs of running the House of Life. Walt has gone missing, and Bast and Bes have also withdrawn. Their father is just happy that they're alive and succeeded in saving the world. They return to Brooklyn House, where Walt/Anubis is waiting for them. Because Walt is Anubis' permanent host, he doesn't have to withdraw from the world and can stay with Sadie. Sadie shares a dance with them, excited to have a chance to finally be with both of the boys she loves at the same time.

Carter takes Zia out on a date in the Mall of America. She tells him that she will be staying in Brooklyn House. They share a passionate kiss and start a relationship. Setne is still on the loose with the Book of Thoth and Brooklyn House has had an influx of initiates, as have most of the Nomes in the world. Carter and Sadie explain that they'll be so busy that there probably won't be any more recordings. The book ends with an invitation to anyone with pharaoh's blood to join the House of Life.

Lee Dae-ho (Kim Sang-kyung) is a single father and manager of the 120 story luxurious landmark building complex, ''Tower Sky'' in Yeouido, Seoul. He is an earnest employee liked by his colleagues and is secretly in love with Seo Yoon-hee (Son Ye-jin), a restaurant manager. The owner of the complex, Mr. Jo decides to hold a "White Christmas" party for tenants and VIPs on Christmas Eve, with helicopters circling above with huge lights attached below them, sprinkling snow onto the party. Dae-ho has promised to spend the day at an amusement park with his daughter Ha-na, but had to cancel as he is needed at the party. However, the building has faulty water sprinklers due to frozen pipes, but Mr. Cha, the ''Tower Sky'''s safety section head, is more concerned for the party than any possible architectural errors within the building, despite warnings from his fellow employers about these errors. (One example of their warnings is when cook Young-cheol (Jeon Bae-soo) accidentally leaves a stove on for too long and causes a minor fire.) Young-cheo is in love with a receptionist within the building named Min-jung, and even sneaks out of the kitchen while on duty to make her an ice cream. Meanwhile, Lee Seon-woo (Do Ji-han) is a rookie fireman entering the Yeouido Fire Station. When he gets accepted, he learns that many of the firefighters get more breaks than actual firefighting. In a prank to fool Seon-woo, the other firefighters ring the fire alarm for the squad to assemble while he takes a shower, causing him to appear in front of his entire team naked, much to the other firefighters' amusement. They take the opportunity to show their acceptance of Seon-woo as one of them, putting his helmet on his head for the first time.

While the party is in full swing, and while Young-cheo proposes a rose to Min-jung in an elevator, huge gusts of wind cause one of the helicopters to lose control and the attached lights crash into the glass bridge connecting the two ''Tower Sky'' buildings and into a side of one of the buildings. Another one of the helicopters then crashes into the building, causing the helicopter to leak fuel and the building catches fire. Shards of glass fall onto the partygoers below, which include Mr. Yoon (Song Jae-ho) and his friend Mrs. Jung (Lee Joo-shil), while another one of the huge lights falls and crashes onto a bus. At one point, while evacuating, some people, including a security guard, board an elevator despite warnings not to use it, as the security guard rejects Yoon-hee and Ha-na from entering just as they are about to board. While traveling down, an explosion occurs below the elevator, which stops it in its path. This literally fries the people inside while melting their shoes until the elevator explodes, killing everyone in it. Dae-ho moves quickly to save Ha-na, Yoon-hee and his colleagues. At the same time, firefighters Kang Young-ki (Sol Kyung-gu) and Seon-woo fight to bring the blaze under control, helping Dae-ho in the process. Together they fight to save the lives of everyone. While Yoon-hee, Ha-na, Young-cheol, Ming-jung and the others take refuge in the building's Chinese restaurant, the firefighters decide to contain the blaze at its origin, the 63rd floor, where the helicopter crashed. Despite containing the fire on that floor, it spreads further within the building. In the end, Young-ki sacrifices his own life to save not only Seon-woo, but for all people in the future by detonating the switch manually inside the water storage tanks to allow the current to carry the remaining survivors through the sewers and out into the Han River since he accidentally dropped the remote control switch while on his way. Meanwhile, the Mayor of Seoul orders the firefighters to detonate a bomb to demolish the building in order to prevent it from toppling over onto the other twin tower, which will result in cascade effect-structural failure of Tower Sky and decimate the portion of the island district of Yeouido, causing colossal damage and casualties. Before the credits roll, the camera points out in the air towards 63 Building, with the remains of Tower Sky seen in the background as morning rises on Christmas Day, which is now left with a single 108-story skyscraper, with Yeouido District shrouded below by a cloud of dust generated by the collapsing ruins of the Riverview Tower.

Jae-hyuk (Kim Myung-min) is a former professor with a doctorate in biochemistry who is currently working as a pharmaceutical sales representative after losing his life savings and his job due to a bad investment he made in the stock market on the advice of his younger brother. When a series of dead bodies are found floating in the Han River, the public is shocked to discover that the deaths are related to a fatal outbreak of virus-infected mutant parasitic horsehair worms, called ''Yeongasi'', that can control the human brain. Those infected show symptoms of increased hunger without appropriate weight gain and excessive thirst when the worms are mature and ready to reproduce. Hence, they jump into the river to allow the worms to come out of the body. While the authorities work to find a cure, Jae-hyuk and his brother Jae-pil (Kim Dong-wan), a detective who is agonized with guilt for squandering Jae-hyuk's money in the stock market, struggle to save Jae-hyuk's family when they exhibit similar symptoms to the infected.

Starting with Seoul, dead bodies with similar signs of malnutrition are found every morning in rivers all across the country. The police have trouble understanding the cause of the sudden deaths, as all the victims don't show any physical symptoms but look gruesome as soon as they jump into the water. One victim is found dead in his bathtub, but there are also unidentifiable worm-like organisms swimming next to his dead body. Officials at the Ministry of Health find out that these organisms are parasitic horsehair worms that normally use insects as hosts but became mutated into a new form that allows them to infect human bodies as well. The sudden change in appearance that was seen consistently in all victims was caused when the parasites escaped the bodies in the water. As soon as the news gets out and the government makes a public announcement urging people who have been in or near water and show symptoms of hunger and thirst to get checked out, countless people rush to hospitals. Pharmacies are crowded with people desperate to get anthelmintics. Matters become worse when more people jump into rivers overnight and dead bodies float around every morning.

Then it is discovered that using any type of anthelmintic actually causes more excruciating pain and eventual death. Chaos ensues and worsens until one patient claims that he was cured by a specific type of drug called [https://www.choa.co.kr/eng/choa/prod_view.asp?no=70&page=6&cate1=&cate2=&keyword= Windazole]. The country goes insane in order to get a hold of the drug, but pharmacies run out of supply in less than a day. Government officials contact the pharmaceutical company in charge of making Windazole, [https://www.choa.co.kr/other/ ChoA Pharmaceuticals], and demand that they increase supply. However, ever since being acquired by an investment company, the devices involved in creating the drug were poorly managed and the company fails to make a single pill. Public hearings follow as the government requests the company to reveal the drug's composition, but the CEO says that the company's major stockholders refuse to do so, and the government has no legal grounds to force the company to disclose the drug's "recipe" either.

Jae-pil then discovers evidence that this was all planned out by workers at ChoA Pharmaceuticals. He finds someone who used to work at the research team at ChoA and threatens him to tell the truth. The researcher confesses the entire story. A few years back, the researchers at ChoA learned about the parasite Yeongasi and thought that finding out the protein involved in controlling the brain might help with finding a cure to other brain diseases such as Alzheimer's. The team was successful in making a mutant version that used mammals as hosts and seemed to be on the way to success with their research when the company was sold, and the research team was disbanded. Some of the researchers who were angry about the whole incident came together and agreed to take part in a collective stock manipulation scheme in which they bought a bunch of stocks and released the parasite after storing away 100,000 packets of the drug. Consequently, hundreds of thousands of tourists became infected over the summer as they went to rivers for vacation. One of the researchers then acted as if he had been treated by the drug in order to raise stock prices.

Given this information, Jae-pil calls Jae-hyuk, and the two go to the storage the researcher admitted to having kept away the rest of the drugs. When Jae-hyuk finally is about to get a hold of the medicine, someone locks the door to the storage and sets the building on fire. The two survive, but the researcher who had been giving Jae-pil the information is murdered by a mysterious man (who later turns out to be the researcher to claim that Windazole worked), and all of the drugs burn down. Jae-pil then finds out that the murdered researcher had actually been the head of the research team and was a close friend to the CEO. Jae-pil learns that the other researchers had already run away overseas and that the head of the team was just staying behind to see how things panned out. Thus, the entire plan was premeditated and taken out by the CEO and the researchers from the beginning. Meanwhile, the CEO suggests that the government buy the company in its entirety, which would then allow them to find out the drug's composition and make more of it for the rapidly increasing number of patients. The price the CEO offers is completely unreasonable at 5 billion won and most government officials are against the idea, but the Prime Minister says there is no other option and is about to sign the contract. In the nick of time, he is informed of the whole scam and the CEO is arrested. Jae-hyuk is in despair when he suddenly realizes, based on his knowledge of chemistry, that as long as he is able to create a drug with the same active ingredient as Windazole, he should be able to treat his family—he does not necessarily need Windazole itself. Other people join in on the plan and pharmaceutical companies hastily create an effective drug that treats everyone.

The movie ends with Jae-hyuk and is family spending time at an amusement park. Jae-hyuk suggests the family go on vacation overseas all together, preferably to a place with many drugstores. His wife laughs and asks if Jae-hyuk is worried that there might be ''Yeongasi'' in other countries as well. Jae-hyuk smiles but suddenly freezes and whips around as the film suddenly transitions to a scene with a dead body floating in New York Harbor.

The film begins with Bell's childhood in Scotland, where his is initially intrigued by sights and sounds.

Linda's sister Gayle unexpectedly shows up at the restaurant, on new medication and in high spirits. She intends to stay for a few days on the first stop of her "Eat Pray Love" tour of the world. Her gift of a jawbreaker to Gene inspires jealousy in Louise, who challenges Gene for it in a series of competitions such as a gross-drink contest (judged by Tina) and a contest to see who can listen to Teddy's boring stories about his towels the longest.

Meanwhile, Bob is seeing the family dentist, the lecherous Dr. Yap (Ken Jeong). After hearing Yap mention accidentally sticking a needle through a patient's cheek, Bob tries to distract Yap by asking about his guitar (named Greta) and his cabin in the mountains. He is ultimately unsuccessful, and Yap anesthetizes Bob. He wakes up and is picked up by Gayle, whom in his drugged state he believes to be Linda. They kiss in the car, and Gayle develops a crush on Bob. The next morning, Bob wakes up to Gayle announcing they are now a couple.

Bob worries about Linda's reaction, but to his surprise, Linda encourages them to date and even have sex, believing it will be good for Gayle's spirits and that she will quickly move onto another man. Uncomfortable with Gayle's attraction to him, Bob proposes to bring the family to Yap's cabin in the hopes Gayle and Yap will fall in love. They arrive and Yap and Gayle begin flirting, but she soon reveals she is only pretending to be interested in Yap as a cover so she and Bob can continue their affair.

Meanwhile, Gene and Louise continue to fight over the jawbreaker. Tina, who has a crush on Dr. Yap, discovers that Yap is using false and extremely misguided methods from the pickup artist "The Prince of Persuasia" to woo Gayle. Tina begins using the Prince's methods to try and pick up Yap.

Yap and the family go skiing. Gayle pursues Bob, Yap pursues Gayle, and Tina pursues Yap, leading to a chase. Bob veers off-course to a secluded area where Gene and Louise are building snowmen in a contest for the jawbreaker. He smashes into Louise's snowman, a depiction of herself holding the jawbreaker, and breaks his tooth on the jawbreaker. Gayle pursues Bob, interpreting his steering off-course as an invitation to have sex in the woods. Yap and Linda witness Gayle on top of Bob and become jealous.

Yap pulls Bob's tooth without anesthesia, causing him to faint. Tina is disturbed by Yap's violence and decides to stop pursuing him. Yap makes a move on Gayle, but Gayle rejects him, deciding to instead "wait for Bob to wake up." This causes Yap to break down. Linda comforts him, advising him to stop following the Prince of Persuasia's techniques. Remembering that Gayle always wanted whatever she had, hence her attraction to Bob, Linda declares she's in love with Dr. Yap. This makes Gayle instantly attracted to Yap, and the two leave to make love. Meanwhile, Gene and Louise, who lost the jawbreaker in the snow, begin fighting over Bob's tooth.

Sally Draper (Kiernan Shipka) calls Glen Bishop (Marten Weiner) to complain about Pauline Francis (Pamela Dunlap), who is babysitting her and Bobby while the rest of the family is on vacation, calling her step-grandmother "Bluto" and saying she smells like a toilet. Pauline trips on the telephone cord outside the door and falls.

Don (Jon Hamm) hauls Megan's parents' luggage into the apartment. Her father Emile (Ronald Guttman) and mother Marie (Julia Ormond), visiting from Montreal, argue in French. Megan (Jessica Paré) asks them to speak English. Don takes a phone call from Sally about Pauline's accident. Later, during dinner while Don is absent, Emile criticizes Don and Megan takes offense. Don arrives with the kids, saying that Pauline broke her ankle. Sally says that Pauline tripped over a toy, and Don praises his daughter for how she handled the situation. Marie excuses herself from dinner. Megan goes to check on her and, finding her mother asleep with a burning cigarette still in hand, sadly takes the flammable object away and leaves her alone to slumber.

Roger (John Slattery) and his ex-wife Mona (Talia Balsam) meet, and he tells her about how his recent LSD experience has changed his life. He requests her assistance arranging meetings with prospective clients he will be meeting at an upcoming American Cancer Society dinner to honor Don for his published anti-smoking letter. She knows about his forthcoming divorce and is amused by it, but implies she will help him out with business anyway.

The next day, Megan approaches Don with an idea for the Heinz campaign: a mother serving her child beans in various historical contexts, from caveman times through to the future. They discuss different tag lines, and an excited Don tells Stan Rizzo (Jay R. Ferguson) and Michael Ginsberg (Ben Feldman) about the idea. Abe Drexler (Charlie Hofheimer) calls Peggy (Elisabeth Moss) and insists on meeting her for dinner. Stan and Ginsberg complain about the last-minute Heinz change but Stan admits it's better than anything they'd come up with before.

Peggy tells Joan (Christina Hendricks) she thinks Abe is going to break up with her over dinner, but Joan tells her that perhaps he is going to propose to her, telling her that if he breaks up with her she already knows her response, but if he is going to propose, that she needs to have her answer prepared, especially if it is no. Peggy arrives for dinner with Abe in a new dress, who doesn't ask if she will marry him but rather if she would like to move in together. She hesitates but says "I do".

At a dinner with Heinz, Megan learns the Heinz client, Raymond Geiger (John Sloman), is planning to fire the agency. She secretly tells this to Don and prompts him to pitch the new concept at the table. Raymond is impressed and finally gives the plan a thumbs-up. Later in a cab, Don lavishes his wife with praise and kisses. Since their apartment is currently crowded, she suggests they have sex at the office.

The next morning, Peggy tells Joan that she and Abe are moving in together, worried that Joan will be disappointed for her. Joan calls it a romantic notion and suggests marriage may be overrated, noting that Greg had decided his commitment to the U.S. Army is more important than his commitment to her. Ken Cosgrove (Aaron Staton) recounts the Heinz meeting to everyone in the conference room, but Harry Crane takes credit he doesn't deserve, while Pete Campbell notes they still are out of thousands of dollars spent wooing Heinz. Don credits his wife, who calls it beginner's luck. Peggy congratulates Megan, telling her "This is as good as this job gets." Megan looks melancholic.

The next day, Sally asks her father if she can go to the awards dinner. Emile and Marie quarrel again, and Megan lets Don know that her father is cheating on her mother.

That evening, Roger arrives and Marie helps him with his bow tie. Sally shows off her dress. Don tells his daughter to remove her makeup and go-go boots before they leave. Later in the award room Don affectionately tells her that she is a beautiful girl who will one day wear makeup but not tonight.

Peggy and Abe prepare dinner at her apartment. Her mother Katherine (Myra Turley) arrives, and Peggy tells her that she and Abe are moving in together. Katherine opposes the idea and says she would rather Peggy just lie about it. She tells Peggy that Abe is just using her as practice before he decides to marry and have a family with another woman in the future, and snidely advises her to just "get a cat" if she's lonely.

At the ACS dinner, Pete Campbell (Vincent Kartheiser) introduces Don and Megan to Ed Baxter (Ray Wise), Ken’s father-in-law. Ed compliments Don's talent and Megan's contribution to the Heinz campaign. Roger shows a genuine side when he spends the night with Sally on his arm, telling her about the event's attendees; Marie watches him from across the room. Later at the bar, Marie approaches Roger. Meanwhile, Emile tells Megan she has changed, that her marriage to Don has ultimately allowed her to take a shortcut in life instead of working for it, reminding her of her acting dreams she was once so driven about. She rebuffs him but is visibly bothered by this truth. Sally later enters a room down the hall and sees Marie fellating Roger. Back in the showroom, Ed tells Don the companies at the event love his talent and will shower him with awards but, because of the letter he wrote against Lucky Strike, will never hire him. Don looks stunned. As he returns to the table and rejoins Megan, her parents, and Sally, all of their expressions match, discouraged and uncontent with the world and themselves.

Back at Don’s apartment while everyone is sleeping, Sally sneaks out in her pajamas and calls Glen. He asks her how the city was and she replies that it's “dirty”.

A company invents an unbreakable ceramic, the secret of which others try to steal. Following the death of an industrial spy in a vat of liquid clay, Steed and Cathy mount an undercover investigation.

Shikokuchūō is a town that specializes in making calligraphy paper. However, the town had been devastated by the Japanese Recession, and many shops in the town's shopping arcade were forced to close. Over at Tsumishima High School's calligraphy club, a membership crisis ensues after many of its members left the club in quick succession. Satoko refuses to be worried, and continues to focus on her work for the upcoming national calligraphy competition.

One day, a new relief teacher, Ikezawa, is assigned to the calligraphy club as its adviser. After Satoko and Kana mistake him as a thief, they throw calligraphy ink on him, thus leaving a bad first impression. After hearing that the club only has seven members left, Ikezawa puts up a performance calligraphy show to attract new members. This enraged Satoko, who strongly believes in the traditional method of calligraphy. However, another member, Kiyomi was deeply impressed by the performance and started practicing it, putting her at odds with Satoko, who later chases her away from the club.

Satoko later has a change of heart when she realizes how much calligraphy meant to Kiyomi. She also agreed to put up a performance to commemorate the closure of the shop that Kiyomi's father runs. Ultimately, the performance was a failure, but the club members were surprised at the number of people who came to watch their performance. Just before Kiyomi moved to Hiroshima, she requested Satoko to continue practicing performance calligraphy. At around the same time, Tomoya's grandfather's paper-making workshop burnt down after Tomoya's grandfather started burning the high-quality calligraphy paper he made that no shop wanted to purchase.

Satoko gets a revelation that all is not lost after she finds an unburnt calligraphy paper amidst all the rubble. The calligraphy club then got to work convincing the town's residents to support their idea of starting a performance calligraphy competition and to drum up publicity for the event. The members wanted the competition to revive their dying town. They started practicing very hard, but were frustrated due to the lack of progress. Initially reluctant, Ikezawa finally stepped in to coach them after much persuasion.

Even after practicing for a long time, Ikezawa thinks that their work is still missing something. To overcome this problem, the club members decide to persuade Mio, a former talented club member, back into the club. They eventually succeed and their work gets a big boost. Meanwhile, many schools from around the region have volunteered to participate in the competition. Even the national media have reported about the upcoming competition. To make the competition more meaningful, the members decide only to use the town's famed calligraphy paper, even though those they had were too fragile. Upon seeing their determination, Satoko's father, who was initially opposed to the competition, commissioned Tomoya's grandfather to make a suitably strong calligraphy paper as a sign of his support.

On the day of the competition, the team faces strong teams from other high schools. During their performance, they are off to a good start. However, several mishaps occur and their work is ruined. Despite this setback, the team did not give up and completed their work. After the performance, Ikezawa left the town. In the background, a poster was advertising the next edition of the competition. Ikezawa later opened a letter containing a group photograph of the team and the words "Thank you" written behind. Meanwhile, the members of the calligraphy club vowed not to lose again at the next edition of the competition after receiving a challenge letter from another school.

Bart, noticing Edna's struggle to bond with Rod and Todd when alone with them, urges her to introduce them to the "real world" or life will be extremely difficult for them. While Ned is at a left-handers' support meeting, Edna goes to one of Rod and Todd's parent-teacher meetings at their Christian school. Disgusted by the lack of proper education in their school, Edna transfers them to Springfield Elementary. That night, Ned has a dream that Rod and Todd do not live up to his expectations. On the day of the party, Edna and Ned get into a fight about Rod and Todd's fashion (light-up trainers and temporary tattoos) and new vocabulary (Rod says "Chillax, Daddy"). Annoyed at Ned's inability to trust her, Edna leaves with the kids while Ned stays with the Simpsons for the night. The next morning, Ned sees Homer and Marge get into a fight and realizes that there will always be things that he and Edna will disagree on, so he rushes to the school and makes up with Edna.

This collection of three stories under a joint name ''The Black Pearl'' is based on author's notes from traveling around Italy. Each of the characters met by the author tells her a moving history of his or her life. When talking to the author they experience a particular catharsis: a spiritual and emotional cleanse, they release emotions, they seem to want to tame the sometimes pointless chaos of their lives. The need to confide stems from the internal need of sorting one’s thoughts. Each of us needs understanding and affection. All of these stories are naturally brought to order by life which puts them into a coherent wholeness.

The Blue Star of the Nile is stolen from an exhibition guarded by the police under Inspector Farraday. Under intense pressure from the police commissioner to recover the diamond, Farraday tells reporters, among them Dorothy Anderson, that he is sure Boston Blackie is responsible. However, he does not really believe that; it is only a ruse. When Blackie walks into Farraday's office, the inspector is so desperate he deputizes his old nemesis to get the jewel back, using his own methods.

Blackie is certain the robbers had inside help. He finds a wad of gum under some of the furniture at the exhibit hall; it still bears the impression of the diamond. Blackie targets George Daley, the assistant manager, especially after he learns that George had recently bought a large amount of gum. He gets sidetracked when Anderson recognizes him and has him arrested, but Farraday soon lets him out the back way.

Daley's sister Eileen finds out that her brother is involved with thieves Paul Martens and Matt Healy, and that he later hid the diamond in her purse. She persuades him to give the jewel to Blackie. However, his former partners show up just after he meets Blackie. In the ensuing scuffle, they kill Daley, and kidnap Blackie and his sidekick, "the Runt". The crooks figure that, with Blackie missing and unable to clear himself, he will be suspected of both the robbery and the murder. Indeed, Farraday begins to believe just that.

Blackie tells his captors that what they have is a fake that he intended to switch with the real diamond, supposedly stored in a vault. Uncertain, they take it to fence Jumbo Madigan to get his expert opinion. Blackie manages to free himself and the Runt, and persuades Madigan to go along with his story. However, when the police surround the place, Martens and Healy realize they have been double crossed, and shoot Madigan, though not fatally. When the cops break in, they do not spot the pair, posing as mannequins.

The crooks later return to their apartment. Blackie offers to steal the real diamond. They agree to his arrangement, but keep the Runt as a hostage. Blackie goes to Farraday, who surrounds the building with policemen. Then Blackie and Farraday enter the apartment to negotiate the Runt's release. Martens and Healy make a break for it, but are caught.

When her car is stolen, her parents discover that she had canceled the car's theft insurance to afford submission fees for poetry journals, and call her a child, which causes her to pack and leave. She briefly moves in with a coworker, trans woman Rubia, before finding her own apartment.

She apologizes to him and asks for her job back. Alex rehires her, and they begin hanging out.

The novel focuses on an unnamed female narrator, known only as I., who explores her existential situation as a woman and writer both through personal reflection and in dialogue form. She is a writer and intellectual living in Vienna during the second half of the 20th century.

The writer shares a flat with the calm and rational Malina, a historian, who offers her the necessary support as she is often confused and seems to be losing touch with reality. She meets Ivan, a young Hungarian man, and falls in love with him. They begin an affair but soon Ivan begins to avoid her and ultimately rejects her.

The second chapter, "The Third Man", is the climax of the narrative. In dream sequences the narrator remembers the horrors of the Second World War, gas chambers and rape. A “father” figure is omnipresent in her dreams who she realises represents not her own father but rather the male-dominated world of Nazism more broadly.

In the third chapter, "From last things", the narrator tries to overcome her problems in dialogue with the always proper but scarcely approachable Malina. The narrator realizes that a relationship with Ivan is not possible, and that a relationship with any other man will not be possible either. She feels that she can no longer survive in this male-dominated world. "I have lived in Ivan and I die in Malina," she says. At the end of the novel, the writer disappears without a trace into a crack in the wall and Malina removes all evidence of her existence from their flat, as if she had never been there at all. The novel closes with the sentence "It was murder."

In 1975, an obscure rock band called Gekirin record a song called "Fish Story" that anticipates the sound of punk rock that's just beginning in New York and London. The band breaks up shortly after "Fish Story" is released due to record company interference, but the song has an ongoing life over the years. The film jumps between decades as the recording plays a role in several seemingly unrelated scenarios: a member of the hospitality staff on a ferry (Mirai Moriyama) wins the heart of a beautiful girl while battling hijackers; Masaru (Gaku Hamada) and his buddies look for women on a lonely and boring evening; a comet heads towards Earth while a strange man in a record store lectures those around him about the impending destruction of the Earth; and how Gekirin came to write the song.

The main story revolves around the optimistic main protagonist ''Zylo Kamberi'', who is an incompetent apparatchik. ''Zylo'' in the book is referred to as ''comrade Zylo'', which was common during the Communist regime. His pathetic vanity, his quixotic fervour, his grotesque public behaviour, in short his rise and fall, are all recorded in ironic detail by his hard-working and more astute subordinate and friend ''Demkë'' who serves as a neutral observer. ''Demkë'' before being assigned the post as Zylo's assistant used to be a bright individualistic person who gave up on his own ideals to substitute them with the "''ideals of the greater good''", which in the novel is an euphemism for his superiors’ will.

New Directions is the first group to compete, and Mercedes arrives just in time to go on stage with the group, healthy again thanks to Sue. The Troubletones lead off with "The Edge of Glory". Rachel then performs "It's All Coming Back to Me Now". Carmen arrives during the number, for which Rachel receives a standing ovation. The finale is "Paradise by the Dashboard Light", which also brings the audience to its feet, and gets an approving whistle from Carmen. Later, in the lobby, Jesse approaches Carmen and recommends Rachel for NYADA.

Mercedes and Kurt go to the Vocal Adrenaline dressing room to wish lead singer Wade "Unique" Adams (Alex Newell) good luck, but he tells them that he has chosen not to perform because he can no longer take the pressure of his new celebrity status. Kurt suggests that Unique, Wade's transgender alter ego, might be able to handle what Wade is unable to, and the teen starts to get ready. On stage, Unique and Vocal Adrenaline perform "Starships" and "Pinball Wizard". The judges name Unique the Nationals MVP, but they award the Nationals trophy to New Directions, with Vocal Adrenaline in second place.

Don Frederico, riding home, spots a girl lying on the trail. Dismounting, he turns the girl over to find she is wearing a wicked fox mask and laughing, as two men ride up to rob him. Quickly getting on his horse, he is chased and finally caught, forced to hand over, on forfeit of his life, the gold he was taking to pay his taxes to Colonel Montoya.

The following day Captain Grisham calls at Don Frederico's hacienda to collect the taxes and is surprised when Frederico is able to pay because he has an angel of mercy, and Tessa Alvarado, his goddaughter, appears at the door. At a ruined coastal house, two of the thieves, brother and sister, Teodora and Isabel Selvera, are discussing their loot when they spy nearby Don Frederico and Tessa walking and chatting about Tessa's mother and father. Suddenly accomplice Ramon, whose father had recently been murdered (ep. 04, "Vengeance"), appears, surprised to see them, and Teodora is worried, but his sister assures him Ramon will not betray them as he loves her.

Later that afternoon Captain Grisham's dalliance with Vera is interrupted by Don Selvera complaining about the thieves and wanting action, unbeknownst to him that his daughter and son, Teodora and Isabel, in the carriage, are the culprits. In the evening back at the dilapidated ruin, the three thieves are discussing their next robbery victim and decide on Tessa Alvarado, but Ramon is reluctant to rob his childhood friend.

The next morning the three burst into the Alvarado hacienda to find Tessa, Marta, and visiting Don Frederico present. Taking gold and valuables, they escape, chased by Don Frederico as they make their getaway. Teodora turns and shoots Frederico and he dies in Tessa's arms. Ramon is shocked and at Don Frederico's funeral tries to comfort Tessa in church, but Isabel and Teodora are present to hear Tessa say her godfather will be avenged.

Colonel Montoya, under pressure from the Dons, is unsympathetic to Tessa, but goes along with her plan to act as decoy to smoke out the thieves. Marta is very unhappy with Tessa as Montoya cannot be trusted. The thieves learn Tessa is carrying her gold in a coach (a ruse) and a reluctant Ramon agrees to one more robbery. On the trail Tessa and Marta (in the coach) are chased and stopped by the thieves under the watch of nearby Montoya, Grisham, and his soldiers. As the robbery unfolds, Montoya stops Grisham intervening, as he hopes Tessa is killed when the thieves discover there is no gold, so that he can get her hacienda. But Montoya's own hopes are not fulfilled and he allows Grisham and his men to capture the thieves. The thieves scatter but Grisham shoots at Ramon, causing his horse to fall, and Tessa is shocked to discover who it is as Grisham takes him to jail. She visits Ramon in his cell, but he refuses to name his partners-in-crime. Meeting Marta outside, Marta points out Ramon saved her life, but Tessa is confused whether justice will be done. When crossing the square, Isabel calls to her father and Tessa recognises her voice, and knows she and her brother, who is with their father, are the other two thieves. Colonel Montoya, under pressure for results from Don Selvera, orders Captain Grisham to try to beat the information from Ramon, but Vera interrupts, indignant at Grisham's treatment of a Don's son, but it is a ploy to discover where the loot is hidden.

With the information Grisham and his men head for the ruined house but Isabel is already there when she is challenged by the Queen, only for Grisham to arrive, and they both hide. Grisham hears a noise, and to protect Isabel, the Queen shows herself, and after engaging Grisham's men, she makes her escape, followed by Grisham and his men allowing Isabel to emerge, and as she is about to leave, the Queen, having lost Grisham, reappears and convinces Isabel to tell the truth to save Ramon. Confessing to Colonel Montoya, Grisham wants to hang all three, but Montoya sees a chance to make money and in the church negotiates 5000 reales and a quarter of Don Silvera's land for his children's lives, but Ramon will be shot by firing squad.

Despite the little matter of a missing candle-stick, Captain Grisham returns the stolen property to Tessa and informs her Ramon is to be executed, and Tessa is shocked that he makes no mention of the other two thieves. Later, at the appointed time, Ramon is led to the execution post with a distraught Isabel screaming to the annoyance of Montoya. As Grisham is about to give the order to fire, the Queen appears riding on top of two horses and dives on to the first man in the firing squad causing the line to collapse like dominoes. She frees Ramon and takes on the garrison single-handed to enable Ramon to escape. In the confusion Ramon calls to Isabel and she jumps onto the horse Ramon has taken, only for her brother Teodora to take a rifle to shoot Isabel. Stopped by his father, allowing Grisham to arrest him. The Queen escapes on Chico, taking along another horse. Meeting Ramon and Isabel outside town, she tells them to go and never come back. Back at the shell of the building by the sea, she sadly reflects with Marta that she has lost two more people, Ramon and Don Frederico

Young archaeologist Dr. Valerie Cammon (Polly Shannon) and her colleague Dr. Kim (Philip Moon) go by ship to a volcanic island in the Mediterranean sea. While she seeks relics in a cave, a seaquake sinks their ship without survivors. At about the same time all archaeologists except for Dr. Cammon get eaten by the re-awakened ancient Lernaean Hydra.

During the tempest, a whole island disappears. Two months later, Vincent (Alex McArthur) and Dixie Camden (Jana Williams) intended to organize a man-hunt for cranky millionaires. Their Captain (Michael Shamus Wiles), unaware of the Hydra, suggests the nearby, aforementioned island as a substitute.

Four ex-convicts, Tim Nolan (George Stults), Gwen Russell (Dawn Olivieri), Bob Crick (James Wlcek) and Ronnie Kaplan (Texas Battle), are marooned at the shore and given 24 hours' headstart.

The following day the rich hunters (played by Paul Rae, Roark Critchlow, Ricco Ross and William Gregory Lee) arrive, having been informed that their targets are responsible for various personal losses in their lives (Kaplan killed one man's daughter in a drunk driving accident, Crick raped and murdered another man's daughter, and Gwen killed the son of the third man, although Nolan was randomly selected as the intended fourth victim had a heart attack during the abduction). However, the hunters attract the Hydra's attention and get eaten. The same fate befalls some of the fugitives.

Dr. Cammon runs into the surviving fugitives and helps Tim to find the magic sword of Hercules. As Dr. Cammon tries to distract the Hydra, Tim gets the sword so he can now fight the beast, but, sadly, he retrieves the sword too late and Dr. Cammon is torn apart and eaten by the Hydra. Tim manages to cut off its heads for good, but fails to cut the last head completely off. With Dr. Cammon dead, the remaining fugitives are forced to go on without her help.

Eventually, the only ones left are Tim and Gwen and they return to the ship, not knowing that the Hydra has recovered and is following them. Now only one-headed, it can move like a snake and makes its way into the belly of the ship.

Gwen wants to use the radio for calling SOS but the microphone is damaged. Mr. Camden blindsides her and blackmails Tim. The Hydra kills Camden from behind, then devours Dixie. Tim grabs the magic sword again and this time, he really kills the monster.

When her cartoonist owner leaves for work, Shero and Black sneak into the apartment to seduce Princess, but she accidentally kills herself in a panic. The cartoonist returns home to find Princess dead and furiously attacks Shero and Black. Black is killed, and Shero engages the cartoonist in a fight that results in the cartoonist's death when they both tumble out the window. On his way back home, Shero meets a young cat named Taco, who claims to be Shero's illegitimate son. Shero rejects Taco and goes to steal some fish from Hazel, Tank's landlady. Hazel retaliates by threatening Tank with eviction unless he can cover months of unpaid rent by the next day. An angered Tank ejects Shero from his home and blocks every possible entrance. While smoking and sulking, Shero witnesses a beautiful Angora cat named Misscat being harassed by a pair of dogs and rescues her by beating her assailants. Shero attempts to seduce Misscat but is turned down and told to meet her again on the same rooftop that night. Meanwhile, the brainless cadaver of the cartoonist is revived by an ambulance defibrillator. The cartoonist hijacks the ambulance and begins a vengeful search for Shero.

As Shero obtains a bouquet for Misscat, the cartoonist finds the two dogs and forces them to lead him to Shero; Taco, who was rummaging for food, witnesses this transaction and follows them. Shero and Misscat rendezvous and prepare to make love when they are captured and tied up by the dogs and the cartoonist. Before the cartoonist can electrocute Shero, Taco appears and frees Shero, who fights the cartoonist and throws him off the building and into a dumpster, along with the dogs. Taco is once again brushed off by Shero, and he reveals that his mother, a past mate of Shero's named Mimosa, is dead. Shero and Taco bond after a brief exchange of fists and Taco helps Shero attempt to obtain liquor from the local grocer. However, the cartoonist, having hijacked a passing garbage truck, absconds with Taco during the mission, forcing Shero into a chase. Shero rescues Taco as the garbage truck plunges into the sea, and Shero once more kills the cartoonist in an underwater fight. As Shero and Taco make their return home, Hazel chases off Misscat and installs barbed wire to further prevent Shero's entry. The cartoonist's body is lifted out of the sea by a rescue team, and he is once again revived when his body comes into contact with power wires.

After Rifki and Riza's latest attempt to retrieve liquor ends in failure, Riza proposes to Shero that they can all get what they want by robbing a bank. The cartoonist is apprehended by the police, but he hijacks the police car when the bank's robbery is reported. As Shero and the group make their getaway, Taco takes a bullet for Shero from the cartoonist. Shero, believing Taco to be dead, discards the stolen money into a crowd of people in his grief, and he leaves with Taco's body in the confusion. Tank comes across Shero and Taco and takes them back home in the absence of available veterinarians. Tank and Shero successfully treat Taco's bullet wound and revive him, and Rifki and Riza return with a single pack of money from the robbery, which is used to clear all of Shero and Tank's debts. The last of the money is used to hold Shero's barbecue. The celebration is cut short by the arrival of the cartoonist, who has taken Misscat hostage. Shero and Tank engage in one last fight against the cartoonist and finally destroy him in a gas explosion. Shero and Misscat watch the fireworks and confess their love for each other. They then have sex, and end up bouncing across the world as the credits roll.

What the family does not know: It has come in the midst of a tribal feud whose battles they do not directly affect, but in which they are increasingly drawn into it. The family does not find it easy at first to understand the reason for the hostilities, and it must realize that love, hate, life and death have different values in the foreign culture than in their own.

Derek (Jack Davenport) makes Karen (Katharine McPhee) the new Marilyn. This means that not only does Karen have to perfect things she's never done before, but costumes have to be refitted to Karen's size. Karen is still green, and everyone but Derek has doubts, which is only worsened when each number has multiple problems. Eileen (Anjelica Huston) tells Derek that Karen cannot do Marilyn, and tries to get Derek to fire her, but Derek refuses and insists Eileen respect his artistic vision.

Karen confronts Dev about cheating on her with Ivy, and Karen dumps Dev.

Karen eventually cracks, pulling off her wig, and Derek finds her curled up in a ball. He tells her to exploit her pain to be a better actress, and she pulls herself together right as Eileen, Tom, and Julia are about to put Ivy in as Marilyn; they concede the point to Derek, breaking Ivy's heart. Karen as Marilyn proves to be an enormous success, getting rapturous applause for her show-stopping finale- before she's even finished singing. The season ends on a cliffhanger, with Ivy planning on committing suicide by overdosing on a whole bottle of sleeping pills.

Magicians J. Daniel Atlas, Merritt McKinney, Henley Reeves, and Jack Wilder each receive a tarot card leading them to a New York City apartment, where they discover hologram technology with instructions from an unknown benefactor. A year later, at the MGM Grand Las Vegas, they perform as "the Four Horsemen" in a show funded by insurance magnate Arthur Tressler. Their final trick appears to transport an audience member inside the vault of the Crédit Républicain bank in Paris. Stacks of euros are drawn into the vault’s air vents and showered on the Las Vegas crowd; the trick is shown to have actually happened as the Paris vault is found empty of its recent shipment of euros.

FBI agent Dylan Rhodes and French Interpol agent Alma Dray arrest and question the Horsemen about the robbery but, having no evidence to hold them, turn to Thaddeus Bradley, a former magician turned magic debunker. Thirty years ago, Lionel Shrike, a magician exposed by Thaddeus, attempted to relaunch his career, but died inside a safe during a failed escape trick. Thaddeus demonstrates how the Horsemen used a mock vault under the Las Vegas stage, and explains that they stole the money ''before'' it arrived at the bank, replacing it with flash paper which ignited when the vents were activated without creating any smoke or residue. He reveals that they manipulated the audience participant (who was ''intentionally'' selected beforehand) to attend the show, where he was hypnotized into helping to perform the final trick, also revealing that he was actually dropped into the vault below the stage.

Thaddeus and the FBI follow the Horsemen to their next show in New Orleans, where the magicians transfer more than $140 million from Tressler's private accounts to certain members in the audience, composed of people whose insurance claims were denied by Tressler's company in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. The magicians escape, and a vengeful Tressler hires Thaddeus to expose them for robbing him. Alma suspects the Horsemen are connected to “the Eye”, a Freemason-like, elite group of magicians so skilled that many think they have access to real magic, who steal from the rich to give to the poor. Alma also suspects that there may be someone helping the Horsemen.

Discovering that the Horsemen replaced Dylan's cell phone with a bugged clone, allowing them to remain ahead of the investigation, the FBI track Dylan’s ''real'' phone to the New York apartment, where three of the Horsemen escape while Jack stays back to destroy their documents. Pursued by the authorities, he loses control of his car in a fiery crash on the Queensboro Bridge. Unable to save Jack, Dylan recovers papers pointing to the Horsemen's next crime: stealing millions in cash from the Elkhorn Company’s safe. The FBI find the safe missing (having being loaded on a truck under orders of one of the FBI agents, who was hypnotized) and intercept it, only to discover that it contains nothing but balloon animals; it is revealed to be a decoy. They converge on the Horsemen’s final show at 5 Pointz, where the magicians appear with a farewell message to the crowd. As they leap off the roof, Alma disrupts Dylan's attempt to shoot them; the Horseman disappear in a shower of counterfeit money.

The ''real'' money from the Elkhorn safe is found in Thaddeus’ car and he is arrested, presumed to be an accomplice with the Horsemen. Dylan visits him in jail, and Thaddeus deduces that the Horsemen duped the FBI into following the duplicate safe, allowing Jack, who faked his death using a decoy car and a cadaver stolen from a morgue, to break into the ''real'' safe (which was in truth ''never'' stolen but was actually hidden behind a giant mirror to trick the FBI into thinking that it was) and frame Thaddeus with the stolen money. Thaddeus realizes that Dylan is the mastermind behind the Four Horsemen's plots, which proves Alma's suspicions correct. At the Central Park Carousel, Daniel, Merritt, Henley, and Jack are welcomed by Dylan as the newest members of the Eye.

Meeting Alma in Paris at the Pont des Arts, Dylan reveals that ''he'' is Shrike's son. He created the Horsemen to seek retribution for his father’s death: the Elkhorn Company's faulty safe led to the accident; Thaddeus ruined his father's career; and the Crédit Républicain and Tressler's insurance company failed to pay out his father's life insurance. Alma, having fallen in love with Dylan, agrees to keep his secret and they attach a love lock to the railing, throwing the key into the Seine.

In a mid-credits scene, the Horsemen drive to a desert junkyard, and find a set of locked crates with the symbol of the Eye.

Canadian aircraft crash off course, near an Irish convent. But what happened to the crew?

Immediately following the murder of Cardinal Orsini, Micheletto (Sean Harris) informs Cesare (François Arnaud) that there is also a plot against his family. They arrive at Cesare's home to save his mother and sister, Vannozza (Joanne Whalley) and Lucrezia (Holliday Grainger). Juan (David Oakes) arrives at the palace of Cardinal Orsini and directs his soldiers to arrest Orsini's household staff. Later, Cesare meets with his father, the Pope (Jeremy Irons) and Cardinal della Rovere (Colm Feore), who tells them Orsini was killed by poison. Soon after, Juan brings Micheletto into the room, having arrested him outside the gates. The Pope recognizes him as one of the servants pouring wine during the dinner, and Juan orders he be tortured for information. Before Juan can begin his interrogation, Cesare tells him that he will do it instead. Cesare tells Micheletto that he will release him, and to spy on Cardinal della Rovere.

After briefly torturing Micheletto, Cesare discusses Orsini's murder with the Pope. Alexander tells Cesare that he is being made a Cardinal, and Cesare begs him to reconsider, and give him control of the Papal armies, but is denied again in favour of Juan. In addition, Alexander tells Cesare that he intends to find a husband for Lucrezia, in order to make an ally of an enemy. Meanwhile, Micheletto arrives at della Rovere's home, where he gains his trust by showing the Cardinal his wounded back. In the Vatican, the Pope hears the confession of Giulia Farnese (Lotte Verbeek), a noble woman in Rome. She confesses that she ended her pregnancy, a sin which "only the Pope can forgive". The Pope allows her to reside in Cardinal Orsini's now empty palace while she performs her penance.

With the aid of Micheletto, Cardinal della Rovere assembles a large group of Cardinals and tells them of his plot to depose the Pope on accusation of corruption and simony. Unbeknownst to the Cardinals, Micheletto is eavesdropping on their conversation. Later, Micheletto brings Johannes Burchard (Simon McBurney) to della Rovere, who seeks his advice on deposing the Pope. The Deacon Cardinal tells della Rovere that the only way to depose a Pope is to prove public lechery. Meanwhile, the Pope makes use of a tunnel constructed by Cardinal Orsini, between his palace and the Vatican, has sex with Giulia Farnese, and commissions a painting of her. Lucrezia meets Giulia while she is being painted, and they quickly become friends. When Lucrezia tells her mother of her encounter with Giulia, and that the Pope had commissioned a painting of her, Vannozza meets with him the following day to accuse him of taking Farnese as his concubine.

Micheletto meets with Cesare to report on what he overheard in della Rovere's home. Cesare informs the Pope of della Rovere's plot to depose him, but Alexander is prepared to overcome it. Micheletto speaks with a young maid working in Orsini's palace, who claims she witnessed the Pope entering Giulia's bedchamber. The Pope visits with Burchard to discuss expanding the College of Cardinals by 13, and puts him to work on finding a precedent for an expansion of that size. In another meeting of della Rovere's Cardinals, he tells them that they must prove the Pope's notorious and public lechery, and brings in the young maid to tell them what she witnessed. Micheletto reports the maid's story to Cesare, who tells him to kill her. Micheletto finds the young woman and has sex with her in an aggressive and callous manner before dispatching her. During Consistory, the Pope tells the College of Cardinals of his intentions to expand the College, which includes making Cesare a Cardinal. This is met by accusations of lechery by Cardinal della Rovere, who storms out of Consistory. He retires to his home, where he finds the young maid murdered on his bed.

Because he was convicted of a crime, Jeff has been sent to an experimental prison where inhabitants are guinea pigs for a man named Ray Abnesti, a sort of warden who develops pharmaceuticals. In an experiment to determine the strength of love, Abnesti puts Jeff in a room with a woman named Heather. Neither finds the other very attractive until a drug is administered and they suddenly fall deeply in love with each other and have sex.

Later, Jeff finds himself in a room with another man whom he realizes also had sex with Rachel and Heather. He realizes that Abnesti is asking one of the women which one of the men should be given Darkenfloxx. The same result happens each time, and the drug is never administered.

Later, after Abnesti presents the love drug he is developing to his superiors, he says he must go into greater depth and gives Heather Darkenfloxx, saying that Jeff must say exactly what he feels while he watches Heather suffer in order to prove he has no romantic feelings for her.

When Abnesti reveals that he will do the same thing to Rachel to determine whether Jeff has a romantic attachment, Jeff refuses to participate. He insists that the drug should not be used. Abnesti leaves to get a warrant to administer drugs to Jeff that will force him to comply.

Detectives Benson and Amaro (Mariska Hargitay and Danny Pino) investigate the disappearance of a girl, Cate (Shannon Maree Walsh), who was researching children born through sperm donation. They learn that Cate was conceived with donor sperm, and that she had tracked down the donor. She was going to meet the man against her mother's wishes.

Tutuola and Rollins (Ice-T and Kelli Giddish) locate the girl, who insists she wasn't kidnapped, but refuses to tell them about her donor father. Rollins notes that on a child donor website that Cate viewed, four other possible girls discussed the same sperm donor; their mystery man suddenly had an urgent need to meet his potential offspring. Tutuola and Amaro interview another teenager (Ryann Shane) who met with "donor 141" through a donor connection website thinking that he was her biological father.

Dr. George Huang (B. D. Wong) says it could be genetic sexual attraction, a condition where children who are separated from their parent or siblings at an early age find a sexual attraction takes place when they're reunited with them. Rollins finds a Dr. Colin Barnes (Eric Close) who matches the description from the file that she and Benson got from the donor bank. Detectives Benson and Amaro meet with Dr. Barnes, his wife Anne (Sonya Walger), and his teenage daughter, Taylor. They ask him about his relationships with his offspring that came through sperm donation. He denies ever seeing or wanting to see any of the children conceived through his sperm. Benson puts Colin in a line-up, but none of the girls identify him as the man claiming to be their father.

The squad checks with Colin and Anne to see if they have any enemies and discover that Colin had a contentious relationship with Phillip Kelly. Colin fired Kelly from the hospital after he discovered him operating while under the influence. Rollins and Fin interview Kelly, who does not fit the description of the suspect. Later, Colin anxiously tells the SVU detectives that his daughter Taylor is missing. The detectives look in Taylor's room and discover that she was listening to the same jazz song, "My One and Only Love", that the other teenage girls were listening to when they danced with their donor father.

Colin tells the detectives about Sean Albert (James Van Der Beek), a former college boyfriend of Anne's whom she stopped seeing when she met Colin. Dr. Barnes had Sean arrested when he discovered him taking the MCAT exam for other people. Anne suddenly receives a text message from Sean who threatens to hurt Taylor unless she meets him at a bar. Later, Fin and Rollins confront Sean at the bar, but he refuses to talk to anyone except Anne. Sean confesses to having a vendetta against Colin and the egotistical attitude he throws in everybody's face. He reached out to Colin's daughter because she needed someone who truly cared for her.

Sean realizes that Anne is watching his interrogation from behind the glass mirror. He says he'll only tell Anne where Taylor is, and only if she dances with him. Anne reluctantly agrees. When the song ends, Sean whispers in her ear that he killed Taylor. Anne screams in agony as everyone rushes in to separate Sean from her. Rollins says killing Taylor doesn't fit Sean's MO. Benson and Amaro follow up a hunch to search east side hotels. They find Taylor in a hotel room, alive and well, awaiting Sean's return. Benson tells Taylor that Sean deceived her, but she insists that he's her real father.

Maurice Hilliard is a mechanical draughtsman producing technical drawings on an annual income of £100. He longs to be free from the monotony of his life and work, and is led by his feelings of hopelessness into drinking alcohol. While travelling by train one day, he meets Mr Dengate, a former debtor to his deceased father. As Dengate was bankrupt at the point of Hilliard's father's death, the debt was not repaid, but as they meet on the train, Hilliard shames Dengate into repaying the debt of £436.

Keith Lemon (Leigh Francis) is an aspiring business entrepreneur from Leeds, who is trying to secure investment for his invention, the Securipole (a metal pole put in the driveway to prevent car theft). He travels to London to present the Securipole at an inventor's convention, putting his friend Dougie (Kevin Bishop) in charge of his business while he is away. Keith's girlfriend Rosie (Laura Aikman) advises that he should start the Securipole business slowly and try to sell some poles in Leeds first, but Keith is too eager for the Securipole to be an overnight success and ignores her.

At the convention, Keith's demonstration of the Securipole fails to attract investors and leaves the public underwhelmed. Keith is devastated by his failure, but is approached by another entrepreneur named Kushvinder (Harish Patel), who offers to give him rights to his own unsuccessful invention, a touch-screen mobile phone without buttons, which Keith reluctantly accepts. In Leeds, a shipment of one million Securipoles arrives at Keith's office, to Rosie and Dougie's dismay. Before going to London, Keith had ordered the Securipoles (his dyscalculia leading him to believe that he had only ordered one thousand), from a benefactor named Evil Steve (Leigh Francis), who is notorious for torturing and even killing clients who fail to pay him. Rosie and Dougie are unable to pay for the poles or contact Keith, so Evil Steve kidnaps Rosie. Before she is taken away, she orders Dougie to travel to London and find Keith.

After Keith is attacked by a group of muggers, a talking satellite navigation app on Kushvinder's phone leads him to the office of Archimedes (Verne Troyer), an advice guru who tries to solve the problems of those in need. Archimedes hears out Keith's plight and manages to get him an appearance on a television chat show hosted by David Hasselhoff (playing an exaggerated version of himself). On the show, Keith tries to promote Kushvinder's phone, but the audience is uninterested. Thinking quickly, he sticks a lemon-shaped sweet on the phone, making it look like it has a lemon on the cover, which immediately impresses the audience. The "Lemon Phone" becomes an overnight success, and Keith is instantly propelled into the life he has always wanted. He becomes a household name, earns billions of pounds from the Lemon Phone, and starts dating Kelly Brook (playing an exaggerated version of herself) who, unbeknownst to Keith, is only dating him so she can divorce him and take his money later. Despite Archimedes' advice however, Keith prefers his new celebrity lifestyle and decides not to return to Leeds, the Securipole business or Rosie.

Keith hosts a toga party at a luxury venue, but during the party he is confronted by Dougie, who tells him Evil Steve has kidnapped Rosie and is going to kill her unless he pays for the Securipoles. Refusing to listen and no longer caring about what he left behind in Leeds, Keith dismisses Dougie and throws him out. This angers Archimedes, who also leaves. Going back to Leeds, Dougie decides to rescue Rosie himself, dressing up as Rambo and storming into Evil Steve's warehouse lair, but his plan fails when he accidentally knocks himself out on a metal bar. Back at the party, as Keith and Kelly take to the stage to sing together, the Lemon Phone is suddenly revealed to have a major technical fault that causes the owner's mouth to sag, giving them a speech impediment. The mouths of everyone who were using the phone immediately sag, including those of Kelly and some of Keith's celebrity friends. Outraged, the crowd at the party turn on Keith and chase him on to the roof of the building. Realising the error of his ways, Keith finds Archimedes and begs for forgiveness, but Kelly and the angry mob force him over the balcony. As he falls to the ground, he is saved by Archimedes, who reveals that he is a guardian angel, and explains that he put Keith through this experience to teach him not to ignore his friends and loved ones in the pursuit of success.

Archimedes flies Keith back to Leeds, dropping him over Evil Steve's lair and proceeding to Heaven. Keith falls through the roof, causing rubble to fall on top of Evil Steve, and rescues Rosie from being lowered into a vat of liquid hot metal. He apologises to his friends for ignoring them, and proposes to Rosie. At first, Rosie is angered by Keith's actions and refuses to forgive him (especially when Keith off-handedly confesses that Kelly Brook was the superior girlfriend), but she soon accepts both his apology and proposal, and with their relationship repaired, Keith, Rosie and Dougie leave the warehouse. During the end credits, Keith explains through a voice-over that he settled down and had a family with Rosie, and converted the Securipoles into water pumps for countries in the "Fourth World".

After a local restaurant closes following a bad review by a vicious food critic called the Moody Foodie (Patton Oswalt), one of Bob's friends and a fellow restaurant owner named Reggie warns Bob that his restaurant is next. Since the Moody Foodie always wears a disguise, Bob's family tries to work out which of their customers he could be until a man dressed as a Hasidic Jew comes in and wipes his hands with a blue handkerchief, his "tell." Unfortunately, the family make fools of themselves, culminating in Bob forgetting what the Moody Foodie's order was, and Gene accidentally setting the grill on fire. The local paper publishes a harsh review, which Bob angrily obsesses over.

After Tina suggests that he try a "redo", Bob heads to the Moody Foodie's house to make him another burger, but since he refuses to let him in, Bob and the kids force themselves in and tie him to a chair with duct tape. While Bob tries to feed him the "Girls Just Want to Have Fennel" Burger, Linda visits him with other restaurateurs who have been given bad reviews who now want their chance at a redo as well, and they force feed him their food and even one of his reviews, until a man delivering a package interrupts them. They tie him to a chair as well, and Louise opens the package to find a DVD of the movie ''Tin Cup'', which Bob begins to mock as a bad movie. Everyone else says that it's not a bad movie, but Bob adamantly says it must be, until he realizes he hasn't seen it and only thinks that because of a bad review. This leads him to have an epiphany: the Moody Foodie's bad review was just him doing his job, and he should just let it go.

After paying the deliveryman $48 plus the DVD edition of ''Tin Cup'' to forget about what happened, they set the Moody Foodie and the deliveryman free, but not until one of the restaurateurs gives the Moody Foodie a wet willy (in a parody of the ear-cutting scene from ''Reservoir Dogs''). Business in Bob's Burgers returns to normal after he gives discounts to anyone bringing in a copy of the review. Bob wonders why the cops haven't come yet to arrest him yet. A flashback reveals that, after everyone left, the Moody Foodie actually intended to call the cops, but after he tried the burger, he enjoyed it so much he decided not to press charges.

First series

The first series (12 episodes, 38 pages) begins with Bloodfang hatching from his egg, 100 million years ago. He promptly kills his siblings, and is raised by his mother, Karka, until she is killed in a fight with the tyrannosaur pack leader, Blackheart, who happens to be Bloodfang's father. During the fight Bloodfang is wounded in the face by Blackheart, leaving him with permanent scars. Bloodfang flees, and becomes an outcast from the pack.

Forced to fend for himself, the young tyrannosaur initially struggles to survive, and nearly starves. His first meal without his mother's assistance consists of carrion. However, when other dinosaurs (four sauroctoni) try to steal his meal from him, he cunningly bides his time until they have gorged themselves, and then attacks them when, sleepy and bloated, they are vulnerable, killing two and driving the others away. Over the next four years he grows to become six metres tall and weigh ten tonnes, by which time he has learned to be a ferocious fighter, stronger than most adults of his species.

Bloodfang returns to his pack during mating season, and kills a rival male tyrannosaur to steal his harem of females. Bloodfang quickly establishes his status as one of the strongest of the pack, but backs down when challenged by Blackheart, who is still the leader.

Eventually, during a final reckoning, Bloodfang kills Blackheart and usurps him as leader of the pack, while the rest of the pack feast on Blackheart's corpse.

Second series

In the second series (30 episodes, 90 pages) time-travellers from 2150, hunting dinosaurs for meat with which to feed the people of the 22nd century, attack Bloodfang's pack.

Alfonso is not convinced, as he believes Naples is already a proven free kingdom. He takes della Rovere to a dining room, where King Ferrante had his enemies stuffed and put on display, as a warning to anyone who would cross him.

Meanwhile, in Rome, the Pope discusses the Vatican's financial woes with his sons Cesare and Juan (David Oakes). He suggests taking in the marranos, which have recently been exiled from Spain by Queen Isabella, at a high price. While emptying della Rovere's estate, Cesare meets with Micheletto (Sean Harris) and tells him to travel to Naples to assassinate the Cardinal.

While they have received offers from all over Christendom, the Pope and Cesare agree that to sustain the papacy, her husband must be Italian. While watching Cem and Juan practice swordplay, the Pope reveals to Cesare that the Sultan offered him 400,000 ducats if Djem were to die while in their care.

Colin has a very pleasant life: he is rich, he loves the food his cook makes (Nicolas), he loves his pianocktail (portmanteau of piano and cocktail, a word invented by Vian) and his friend Chick.

One day while having lunch with Chick, Chick tells him that he met a girl named Alise with whom he has a common passion: the writer Jean-Sol Partre (a spoonerism of Jean-Paul Sartre who was Boris Vian's friend). Colin meets Chloe at a party Chick invited him to. They fall in love, marry, but Chloe becomes ill during their honeymoon. As time passes, Chloe's condition deteriorates while the relationship between Chick and Alise turns sour. Frustrated with their own deteriorating relationships, Colin and Alise sleep with each other, although they both come to regret it shortly after.

Colin spends his fortune on treating Chloe, which causes him to passionately fire his cook and sell his pianocktail, and he slips into poverty as Chloe passes away. His friend Chick spends both his and Colin's money on anything that has to do with Partre, and Chick loses his job due to a Partre-related incident and is later killed when resisting law-enforcement officers. Alise tracks down Partre himself and kills him. Afterwards, Alise disappears. Colin, Nicolas, and his fiancé, Isis, hold a funeral for Chloe.

Darius's son, Xerxes, witnesses his father's death and is advised to not continue the war since "only the gods can defeat the Greeks". Darius's naval commander, Artemisia, claims that Darius' last words were, in fact, a challenge and sends Xerxes on a journey through the desert. Xerxes finally reaches a cave and bathes in an otherworldly liquid, emerging as the 8-foot tall "God-King". He returns to Persia and declares war on Greece to avenge his father.

As Xerxes's forces advance towards Thermopylae, Themistocles meets with the council and convinces them to provide him with a fleet to engage the Persians at the sea. Themistocles then travels to Sparta to ask King Leonidas for help, but is informed by Dilios that Leonidas is consulting the Oracle, and Gorgo is reluctant to side with Athens. Themistocles later reunites with his old friend Scyllias, who infiltrated the Persian troops and learned Artemisia was born Greek, but defected to Persia as her family was raped and murdered by Greek hoplites. She was taken as a sex slave and subsequently left for dead in the streets. She was rescued and nursed back to health by a Persian emissary who then adopted her as his own. Throughout the following years, she was trained by the best Persian warriors and her adopted father. Eventually she became such a skilled and unstoppable warrior that she gained the attention of King Darius. He accepted her into his own family as well and made her a naval commander after she killed many of his enemies. It is also shown that her adopted father was the same emissary that Leonidas killed which has only further fueled her quest for revenge, not only for her biological family, but now also for her adopted one as well. Themistocles also learns that Leonidas has marched to fight the Persians with only 300 men.

Themistocles leads his fleet of fifty warships and several thousand men, which include Scyllias, Scyllias's son Calisto, and Themistocles' right-hand man Aeskylos to the Aegean Sea, starting the Battle of Artemisium. They ram their ships into the Persian ships, charge them, slaughtering several soldiers before retreating from the sinking Persian ships. The following day, the Greeks feign a retreat and lead a group of Persian ships into a crevice, where they become stuck. The Greeks charge the Persian ships from the cliffs above and kill more Persians. Impressed with Themistocles' skills, Artemisia brings him onto her ship where she has sex with him in an attempt to lure him to the Persian side as her second-in-command. They fight and make love simultaneously. He refuses her offer, causing her to dismiss him.

The Persians spill tar into the sea and send suicide bombers to swim to and board the Greek ships with their flame bombs. Artemisia and her men fire flaming arrows and torches to ignite the tar, but an Athenian manages to kill one of the Persians, who falls into the tar carrying a torch, causing ships from both sides to explode. Themistocles is thrown into the sea by an explosion and nearly drowns before being rescued by Aeskylos, and stands by Scyllias's side as he succumbs to his injuries. Believing Themistocles to be dead, Artemisia and her forces withdraw. After recovering from his injuries, Themistocles learns that only a few hundred of his warriors and six of his ships survived the disastrous attack executed by Artemisia.

Daxos, an Arcadian general, tells Themistocles that Leonidas and his 300 men were killed after Ephialtes betrayed the Greeks to Xerxes. Themistocles returns to Athens and confronts Ephialtes. The deformed Spartan traitor reveals that Xerxes plans to attack and burn Athens to the ground. Ephialtes acknowledges and regrets his betrayal shamefully, and welcomes death. Themistocles spares him instead, so he can warn Xerxes that the Greek forces are gathering at Salamis. He then visits Gorgo in Sparta while she is mourning Leonidas's death to ask for help, but Gorgo is angry for what the goal of a united Greece has cost her and her people. Before departing, Themistocles returns Leonidas's sword, which had been delivered to him by Ephialtes under Xerxes's orders, and urges Gorgo to avenge Leonidas.

In Athens, Xerxes's army is laying waste when Ephialtes arrives to deliver Themistocles' message. Upon learning he is alive, Artemisia leaves to ready her entire navy for battle. Xerxes suggests it is most likely a trap, but she still leaves after reminding him that she made him king through her efforts while he sat safely at a distance and watched. The remaining Greek ships charge into the Persians ships, and the two armies battle, beginning the decisive Battle of Salamis. Themistocles and Artemisia engage in a duel, which ends in a stalemate with both receiving severe injuries.

At this moment Gorgo, who had been narrating the tale to the Spartans, arrives at the battle along with ships from numerous Greek city states including Delphi, Thebes, Olympia, Arcadia, and Sparta, all of them uniting against the surrounded Persians. Daxos leads the Arcadian army while Themistocles urges Artemisia to surrender. Xerxes, watching the battle from a cliff, turns his back on her, acknowledging his naval defeat and continuing the march of his army. Artemisia tries to kill Themistocles one last time but is killed as he stabs her through the stomach. While Dilios leads the Greek assault, Themistocles and Gorgo take a moment to silently acknowledge one another's alliance as the remaining Persians attempt a counter-attack. The three then charge at the opposing Persians with the whole Greek army.

Given that all the people in his life believe he is already part of the gang, Eddie decides to join. He is tasked with stealing the security codes from Scuttles' computer and while attempting to do so, hears of a plot to kidnap twelve babies from the hospital nursery, abandoning his mission. Returning to the gang, Eddie is ostracised for his failure to complete his task and he is told to "watch his back". Eddie then sets out to foil the kidnapping himself.

''Bring Up the Bodies'' follows closely upon the events of ''Wolf Hall''. The King and Cromwell—now Master Secretary to the King's Privy Council—are guests of the Seymour family at Wolf Hall.

The King spends time with Jane Seymour and begins to fall in love; his marriage to the new queen, Anne Boleyn, is sometimes loving but often descends into angry quarrels. "I cannot live as I have lived," Henry finally tells Cromwell in private. He has tired of Anne, who brings him neither peace nor a son, and wants his marriage ended. Cromwell vows to make this happen.

Ever the dealmaker, Cromwell tries to negotiate a separation through Anne's father, Wiltshire, and her brother, Rochford. Wiltshire is willing to negotiate; Rochford is not, and tells Cromwell that if Anne's marriage to the King endures he will "make short work of you."

Cromwell talks to those close to Anne. The more he does, the more he hears she's been unfaithful to the King. The musician, Mark Smeaton, and Anne's sister-in-law, Lady Rochford, pass on rumours to this effect. Cromwell begins to build his case. With proof enough to have her tried for treason, the King is willing to see Anne destroyed to serve his ends. Mindful that many of those closest to Anne helped ruin his mentor, Cardinal Wolsey, Cromwell relishes the opportunity to bring them down. And though he is not sure all of the evidence is true, he has gone so far in the matter that he cannot turn back and survive himself.

In the end, Anne and several of her circle, including her brother, are tried and put to death. The King moves to wed Jane Seymour and rewards Cromwell with a barony. Having engineered the King's new marriage, and with the new Queen's family as his firm allies, his position as Henry's chief adviser is now assured.

Brady and McKenzie (Mack) are surfing near her grandfather's beach hut. Mack then walks in on her grandfather and Brady watching their favorite film, a 1960s musical titled ''Wet Side Story'', where surfers and motorcycle bikers battle for the privilege to hang out at Big Momma's beachside restaurant. When McKenzie's aunt comes by, Mack explains to Brady that before her mother died, Mack's aunt promised Mack's mom that Mack would attend a private school, and she is leaving the next day. Mack asserts that although going is not her choice, she feels it is what she has to do since it is what her mother would want. She tells Brady they will have to break up.

Before Mack leaves, she decides to surf a 40-foot wave that is about to hit the beach on her family's special surfboard. Alarmed, Brady gets on a jet ski and goes after Mack, but they both get swept away, eventually landing on another beach. They soon realize that they have been swept inside the ''Wet Side Story'' film. Seizing the moment, Brady joins the film's cast in singing, to Mack's dismay ("Surf Crazy"). Brady relents and informs Mack that there will be a storm and giant wave that should bring them back home at the end of the film. They go into Big Momma's and introduce themselves to the surfers just before the bikers appear and start the surf and turf war ("Cruisin' for a Bruisin'"). Mack and Brady are then invited to come to a party at Big Momma's later that night.

That evening, Mack and Brady are arguing while the film's female lead, Lela (one of the biker girls), is singing on stage ("Falling for Ya"). Tanner, the male lead (one of the surfer boys), falls in love with Mack after she bumps into him, and Brady catches Lela when she falls off the stage. This interferes with the film's plot, in which Lela falls into Tanner's arms, not Brady's. They decide to make Tanner and Lela fall in love to fix things. Brady also tells Mack about the villains of the film, Les Camembert and Dr. Fusion, who are going to use a machine to affect the weather to make the surfers and bikers leave so they can control Big Momma's and turn it into a beach resort.

Lela and Tanner express their love for Brady and Mack, who subtly suggest to them that there may be someone else they are really meant to be with ("Meant to Be"). That night Mack joins Lela and the other biker girls for a sleepover, while Brady hangs out with Tanner and the surfer boys at Big Momma's. While talking about love, Brady and Mack's modern relationship views comes into conflict with those of the 1960s ("Like Me"); they fail to make any progress on getting Lela and Tanner together. The next night, Lela tells Mack that she would like to surf.

Mack and Brady realize that they are morphing into the film when Mack falls into the water and her hair does not get wet. They then begin to spontaneously sing and are unable to stop ("Can't Stop Singing"). They are then captured by Les Camembert and Dr. Fusion and taken to the villains' lighthouse lair.

Lela and Tanner fall in love with each other and soon realize that their friends have been kidnapped. They convince the bikers and surfers to team up and save Mack and Brady. Meanwhile, Mack admits that she is glad that she ended up in the film and does not have to attend private school. When Mack says she thinks Lela is braver than her, Brady denies that, saying that Mack is the bravest girl he knows.

The surfers and bikers free Mack and Brady and destroy the villains' machine. The film's plot returns to normal, and Mack and Brady realize they are able to return home. After saying goodbye to everyone, Mack and Brady get on the surfboard and returns to the real world, where no time has passed since they left. Mack successfully surfs the 40-foot wave. Mack's aunt is upset about her delaying their flight but accepts her decision to spend the rest of the year with Brady. Mack and Brady celebrate by singing on the beach ("Surf's Up").

In a post-credits scene, Lela, Tanner, Butchy, Seacat, Cheechee and Giggles wash up into the real world. A modern-day surfer thinks they are lost and allows them to use his cell phone, which they marvel at as they attempt to use it.

The next morning, a distraught Tina finally cracks and tells her mom, Linda, everything, and Linda tells her that she's the only person who can make her feel embarrassed and not care what anyone else thinks. This cheers her up, and she decides to write some new friend fiction to read out herself instead. Gene and Louise, having found out about Tammy's blackmailing, steal back the notebook, but Tina still decides to read her story ''Buttloose'' (like ''Footloose'' but with "touching butts") only to have the entire cafeteria laugh at her, until Tammy has a sudden bout of flatulence, and the school laugh at her instead, causing her to flee with embarrassment, farting the whole way. Tina, now relieved, thinks that things have turned out OK...until Mr. Frond and Bob begin to patty-cake in front of the school, leading Tina to remark that "no one can embarrass you quite like your parents".

Nick's girlfriend is Kelly James, a health club instructor. Kelly wants to be married and have sex, and when a reluctant Nick introduces her to his mother, Mrs. Jargin wants nothing to do with him, blaming Nick for a racing accident that seriously injured her other son, Johnny.

Kelly is even urged by Nick's mother to leave him. She gives him an ultimatum, marry her or else. He declines, so she goes back to former boyfriend Danny Rhinegold, who now runs Botari's racing team.

In the 100-lap race that takes them along rural roads, Nick takes the lead, with his brother Johnny's help on the crew. Botari is nearly in an accident in the dangerous "Devil's Hairpin" turn, so Nick slows down to help Botari steer clear of it. A self-sacrificing gesture is rare for him, so after the race, Kelly accepts when Nick finally proposes to her.

Nina comes to inform him that business matters are suffering from his neglect. She takes care of Earl when he drunkenly passes out, after he claimed that he never loved Gwen and only married her so a son could take over his business someday.

Ted comes over to Earl's to express his unhappiness with the situation. Earl, his business shut down, impulsively gives Sam power of attorney and decides to go to Europe "for some peace of mind." Nina realizes that Earl is planning to take Ted with him, where they will be out of the reach of the court, and warns Sam to call Seward.

Seward arrives in time to take the child off the plane, resulting in a fight between the men. Sam is disgusted with Earl's self-pitying and selfish behavior, and when Nina confesses to being in love with him, Earl cruelly says girls like her are "a dime a dozen". She hands him a dime.

Gwen reveals to Nina that she wanted Ted back because she and Seward are unable to have a child of their own.

The Christmas Tango is based on the novel by .

An unexpected meeting between the sixty-five-year-old Lazaros Lazarou and a young man, on Christmas Day brings back hidden memories from 1970 when a sensual tango at a Christmas celebration at an army camp in Evros was the focus for the intersection of four lives: an introverted soldier; a harsh lieutenant; a strict and very conservative colonel; and Zoi Loggou (Vicky Papadopoulou), the colonel's wife.

Zoi Loggou's life is suffocating until she discovers a secret admirer in the barracks who forces one of his soldiers to teach him how to dance the tango for the Christmas party so that he can get close to Zoi and reveal his love for her.

Coming back to the present and Zoi today is aged about sixty-five and also suffering from Alzheimer's disease.

The story is set about two years after the collapse of civilization due to a mysterious disease called ''neuroderm''. The "disease" is actually caused by a symbiotic micro-organism sent to Earth from another inhabited planet, and is actually beneficial, though seen as disfiguring because of the graying of skin which eventually spreads over the entire body.

The story's protagonist, Paul Harris Oberlin, begins the story outside Houston. He has managed to avoid infection so far, but is tiring of a diet of small game and ditch water. Paul has decided to risk exploring a city, figuring that the large, crowded cities are now deserted and, perhaps, offer better opportunities for scavenging.

Paul discovers that Houston is now controlled by a strongman named Georgelle, whose followers exterminate any "dermies" they come across. Unable to stomach the murder of a dermie girl, Paul rescues her and flees Houston.

The girl, Willow or "Willie", was heading for Galveston, familiar to her from visits before the collapse. She has heard that nuns have set themselves up there. Paul takes her to Galveston, hoping to find medical help for her crippling gunshot wound.

Paul finds that Galveston Island is an all-dermie colony which had deliberately destroyed all bridges leading from the mainland. There are nuns, and monks, and they provide the leadership for the colony. There is also a scientist who has survived the chaos, and who confirms for Paul the rumors that neuroderm has an extraterrestrial origin.

Eventually, Paul overcomes his fears about neuroderm for the sake of Willie, and plans to go with her to some small island until sanity returns to the world. However, the implied threat of Georgelle's people remains, the dermies of Galveston providing a doubly attractive target for their planned expansion: extermination of the dermies, plus a treasure trove of loot, including gasoline and working cars and trucks.

Much of the story takes place at St. Mary's Hospital in Galveston, a real hospital which was run by a real order of nuns. The hospital is now part of the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB). The address is [https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENUS307&q=404+8th+St.,+Galveston,+TX&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=0x863f9e49d638ef4d:0x860b89e3a63bc063,404+8th+St,+Galveston,+TX+77550&gl=us&ei=ibKoT7OXH4LliALnrYTVCw&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&ct=title&resnum=1&ved=0CB4Q8gEwAA 404 8th St].

Fatmagül Ketenci (Beren Saat) is a lower-class dairy-farm naïve girl who lives in the village Ildır on the Aegean coast belonging to the administrative district of Çeşme, in Izmir province, with her too simple brother Rahmi (Bülent Seyran), his son and his wife Mukaddes (Esra Dermancıoğlu) who hates her for no reason. Fatmagül plans to marry her childhood love Mustafa (Fırat Çelik), a fisherman. They are only waiting for Mustafa to earn much money to finish their house construction before marriage. Then there is the Yaşaran family, the rich upper-class businessmen and their political social elites. Yaşaran Family is in Izmir for the engagement ceremony of the son of the elder brother Reşat Yaşaran (Musa Uzunlar) to the daughter of a politician. Selim (Engin Öztürk) is his son and Erdoğan (Kaan Taşaner) his nephew. These cousins have a third friend Vural (Buğra Gülsoy) who also belongs to the upper-class. All these three have spent their childhood in Izmir but as the businesses of their fathers grew, they moved to Istanbul. They have a childhood friend in Izmir, whom they meet on yearly basis when they come there for summer vacations. This fourth friend of theirs is the hero - Kerim Ilgaz (Engin Akyürek).

Kerim Ilgaz is a well-mannered boy, a blacksmith apprentice by profession, who lives with his aunt Meryem Aksoy (Sumru Yavrucuk), known affectionately as "Ebe Nine", who is a homeopath. Kerim was orphaned during childhood so Meryem brought him up as her own son. He works as a carpenter in the workshop of his father's friend. Kerim though unlike his rich friends, is over-powered by their presence. He considers himself important with them and hence, enjoys their company.

Fatmagül is desperate to be married-off to Mustafa, not only because she loves him but also to get rid away from her nagging sister-in-law. Her desire for Mustafa and an independent married life is growing with time as Mukaddes's hatred is growing towards her. Except for Mustafa, she has no one to share her feelings with. While in Izmir, Erdoğan, Selim, Vural and Kerim see Fatmagül and the three rich men ogle and tease her. Kerim doesn't like this. Then at Selim's engagement, Kerim comes face-to-face with her as she is working there with her sister-in-law.

The big event of the season is the engagement of Selim, to the politician Turaner Alagöz's (Aziz Sarvan) daughter Meltem (Seda Güven). Kerim after attending Selim's engagement, joins his friends for an after-party. All four go for drinking and drug binge near the sea. Mustafa is leaving for a night fish-catch. Fatmagül is coming to see him off. She passes from the area where the drunk boys are singing. Kerim sees her and on recognizing her shouts to his friends 'Guys! It's the same girl'!! Then when she tries to run, Kerim gets hold of her while the other three come near her.

The tragedy occurs. Fatmagül is gang-raped. The four boys are shown to be involved in the crime as she faints when Kerim comes on her. The next morning, a traumatized Fatmagül is discovered by Ebe Nine while she is picking herbs. The four boys have already left the crime scene. Kerim drops off Selim and Erdoğan at their place and himself goes with Vural to his house. Kerim is left deeply disturbed by the event and is even more distressed to know that the girl has been rescued by his mother. The rich boys are confident in the power of their rich fathers and are sure to be saved. As Mukaddes approaches the Yaşarans threatening of giving their name to the police (as she had found Selim's engagement ring at the rape-scene), with the course of events, the Yaşarans save their sons and forcefully marry Kerim to Fatmagül. Kerim accepts the blame of solely raping Fatmagül for protecting his friends and also because he believes himself to be guilty. Mukaddes is their accomplice in all this. Mustafa is hurt primarily because of his fiance being raped. He burns their half-finished house in front of Fatmagül because he believes Yaşaran's false stories that Fatmagül has been having an affair with Kerim from the beginning. Fatmagül and Kerim's families sell their properties and move to İstanbul to start a new life.

The story develops in Istanbul. Fatmagül hates Kerim. She insults him, abuses him, spits at him, tries to kill him, etc. Kerim is not sure whether he really raped her, as he was drunk and drugged. But Fatmagül believes that he did it as his was the last face she saw before fainting. Then Vural who is having little traumas of guilt, tells Kerim what he knows that; Kerim did not rape Fatmagül. In fact, when she laid there and fainted, he just sat beside her. Kerim tells this to Fatmagül. She believes it but it is of no importance for her as she hates him and considers him as much as culprit as the other three.

Things become complicated due to the exploitations of the Yaşarans and their unscrupulous lawyer, Münir Telci (Murat Daltaban), who wants to protect them, as well as Mustafa, who seeks revenge on Kerim. As a result, both the Yaşarans and Mustafa start harassing Kerim, Fatmagül and their relatives. Kerim, realizing his presence causes Fatmagül a lot of pain, prepares to leave and divorce her as she desires. Just before he leaves, Kerim realizes that he loves Fatmagül, and that it was love at first sight. He writes a letter to her, telling her to move on in her life and that one day he will come and ask for forgiveness from her.

Fatmagül reads this letter. Later-on the viewers are shown that this was the moment when Fatmagül fell in love with Kerim as his words softened her heart for him and she believed him. Kerim returns and Fatmagül gradually begins to trust him more.

One day, Vural overhears Erdoğan's plan to get rid of Mustafa and Kerim forever. He requests a meeting with Kerim to warn him. Fatmagül, on a passing bus, sees Vural hug Kerim goodbye and her trust in Kerim dissolves. She believes he is still conspiring with her rapists.

The film opens by a lake on Saint Patrick's Day as the story's young hero, an Irish boy named Matthew O'Brien (David Alan Bailey), is playing hooky from school and fishing with his best friend, Timothy Ryan (Ernest Vaio). As the time approaches to return home, the two boys go their separate ways and Matt soon finds a magic frog which he places in his pocket. Deciding to take a short-cut home through the woods, Matt quickly finds himself lost and soon encounters a leprechaun (Frank Delfino) whose beard is caught in a log. Matt, remembering the old Irish legends he's heard from his grandfather, agrees to help the little man on the condition that he give Matt his bag of gold, to which, according to legend, Matt knows the leprechaun cannot refuse. After freeing the little man, Matt soon learns that the seven gold coins in the bag are not ordinary coins, but magic "wishing coins", which only have power when used to do good for others. After warning Matt of the magic of the coins, the leprechaun promptly scampers off and vanishes into the woods, leaving the boy to find his own way out of the forest.

As Matt becomes desperate to find his way home, he unintentionally spends his first coin wishing for some guidance, which, to his surprise, brings a long suffering wooden sign post to life. Now able to talk, the sign post advises Matt to seek the help of a Wizard and points Matt in the direction of the Wizard's cave. As he approaches his destination, Matt finds himself in the Wizard's enchanted forest, where the trees come alive and inform him that the frog in his pocket is really a knight who was put under a spell by the Wicked Wizard. Matt decides to spend his second coin to help the frog, which instantly transforms it into a medieval knight named Sir Humphrey (Clive Halliday). Grateful to Matt for freeing him, Sir Humphrey warns the boy to avoid the Wicked Wizard who had placed him under a spell while he was attempting to rescue a princess named Cecilia. Sir Humphrey decides to accompany the boy as he searches for a way out of the enchanted forest, but their plans are interrupted when the Wicked Wizard (G. Edward Brett) suddenly appears in a cloud of smoke and banishes them to a barren desert.

In the desert, Matt and Sir Humphrey encounter the Genie of Aladdin's Lamp (Dick Reeves) and learn that he has been stripped of his magical powers and has been banished to the desert by the ruler of all Genies. Feeling compassion for the lonely Genie, Matt spends his third coin to restore the Genie's powers, which prompts the Genie to respond in kind, using his regained powers to transport Matt and Sir Humphrey back to the enchanted forest. Once back in the forest, Matt and Sir Humphrey encounter a Gypsy girl named Esmerelda (Nancy DeCarl) who attempts to help Matt find a way home by inviting him to look into her crystal ball, however, the crystal only shows Matt a vision of his worried mother before fading to darkness. Matt and Sir Humphrey continue on their journey and encounter a lonely old puppeteer named Professor Antonio (Lindsay Workman). Learning the Professor has been abandoned in the woods by a traveling carnival after growing too old to operate his puppets properly, Matt spends his fourth coin to bring the puppets to life so that they can perform on their own.

As Matt and Sir Humphrey continue their search, they once again encounter the Wicked Wizard who uses his evil powers to turn Sir Humphrey back into a frog. At the same moment, Matt spends his fifth coin to wish for the Wicked Wizard to lose his magic powers and to become harmless, which instantly transforms the Wizard into a gentle and confused old man. Suddenly realizing the Wizard's final spell has turned Sir Humphrey back into a frog, Matt immediately spends his sixth coin to restore Sir Humphrey to his human form. Now harmless, the Wizard wanders off and Matt and Sir Humphrey once again encounter Esmerelda, who invites the two to once again gaze into her crystal ball which reveals that Esmerelda is in fact the Princess Cecilia who was also under the spell of the Wicked Wizard. Matt uses his last coin to wish for the girl to be freed from the Wizards spell and she is instantly transformed back into the Princess (also played by DeCarl). Having used all seven of his magic coins unselfishly, a beautiful rainbow appears, which guides Matthew to find his way him home.

In 2012, Peter Delacour (voiced by Troy Baker), a master thief and alien conspiracist, is hired to steal an ancient Egyptian artifact called the Book of Khnemu for his client: network maven Emilio Chauncey (voiced by Josh Gad). However, once he gives it to him, Chauncey, wanting to use the book's power to take over the world, tells his bodyguards to get rid of any evidence, including Delacour. Peter narrowly escapes when it looks like a street gang engages Chauncey's men in a firefight with strange weapons. Chauncey gets away and shortly after, the MiB show up. Agent C (voiced by Laura Bailey), a MiB desk clerk, and Frank the Pug takes Delacour into custody and uses an MiB car in hyper drive mode to get Peter back to MiB headquarters for questioning. After interrogation, Delacour tries to stealthily escape MiB headquarters, but is caught. With the fact that J and K went missing on the same investigation and the fact that Chauncey is apparently helping the Adorians, an alien race that is part of a war that is making its way to Earth, Agent O has no choice but to deputize Peter into helping retrieve the book.

At a party in Chauncey's rooftop penthouse for his new program "C-YA", C manages to keep Chauncey occupied long enough for Peter to slip into Chauncey's study and steal the book. While there they find confirmation that Chauncey is indeed in some sort of partnership with the Adorians and that he somehow turned J and K into statues. Peter and C take the book to Professor Thurgood, a curator at the New York Museum of History who had Peter fired because of his theories. C tells Peter that Thurgood is actually an alien, which angers him due to the fact that he was holding information about himself out on him. Peter is further enraged when Thurgood pretends to know nothing about the Book of Khnemu even though evidence around his study says otherwise. However, before they can get any real answers out of him, the Adorians break in and steal the book back. The two follow them to Chauncey's New Mexico mansion where they discover a downed Adorian ship trapped in a mountain, which explains how Chauncey contacted the Adorians in the first place.

By hacking into the ships mainframe, they discover how the war began: it came about when the Adorian prince Khnemu and Netheera, the daughter of the Nakkadan prime minister, were supposed to be married, with Earth being a neutral zone for it to happen. However, their ships were sabotaged and trapped in nullspace. The book is the only thing powerful enough to free the ship, allowing whoever finds it to tip the war in their favor. Chauncey and his Adorian allies quickly capture them soon thereafter. Chauncey explains to them that his network is embedded with Adorian coding, allowing him to take control of every person's mind on Earth once he helps the Adorians win the war. He then forces Peter to read a passage from the book thinking it will power the ship. However, it backfires against him, allowing Khnemu to possess Chauncey and setting the ship to self-destruct. C and Peter manage to escape the blast, but Khnemu is right on their tail. They manage to use the car's weaponry to kill Khnemu, but the explosion caused the Nakkadan ship to be freed as well.

Out of leads, C and Peter return to the museum only to discover it to be crawling with Nakkadans. They manage to sneak around them and find Thurgood half frozen in some sort of residue. Peter pressures Thurgood into revealing the truth: he is actually an emissary of the Chtala Initiative sent to Earth to make sure the book and an Orb of Netheera didn't fall into the wrong hands. Now that the book had been captured and the Nakkadan ship exposed, Thurgood feels it's better to leave Earth and let his superiors handle the problems. However, Peter reminds him that his actions have been interfering with MiB's jurisdiction and forces him to reveal the Orb's hiding place.

With his end of the deal satisfied, C prepares to neuralyze Peter back to before he stole the book of Khnemu. However, she is immediately possessed by Netheera's spirit. Thurgood's office is then swarmed by Nakkadan soldiers and Peter has to fight his way to a fountain in Central Park. There, he finds Netheera and two Nakkadan generals using a nullspace portal to make their way to the ship and follows them through. After fighting his way through the ship, he corners Netheera at a command module. Netheera tells Peter she plans to destroy Earth for its indirect involvement in Khnemu's death and taunts Peter's romantic feelings for C before turning into a giant scorpion like creature to deal with him. Peter manages to defeat her by trapping her under one of the ships machines and escaping with a barely conscious C as the ship explodes.

Back at MiB headquarters, Peter tells C that while he cares for her, he's fully aware MiB agents aren't allowed to fraternize with each other. O congratulates the two for their success and tells Peter (who she calls Agent P) she's considering bringing him on full-time as the head of a division designated with locating alien artifacts, starting with a downed UFO in Central America.

Eight months later, Helen reveals to him in prison that she is pregnant with his child and refuses his request that she divorce him.

For the good of his wife and child, Rankin decides to fake his own death.

Arthur Wyatt, an American railroad conductor, is lost in the jungle of the Amazon in South America. He is rescued by Chela, the beautiful princess of a native tribe.

In an alternate history, the asteroid that would have caused the extinction of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago passes safely over Earth. Millions of years later, ''Apatosaurus'' corn farmers Henry and Ida have three children: Libby, Buck, and Arlo. While his successful siblings are allowed to "make their mark" (a mud-print on the family's corn silo), Arlo's timid nature makes tasks difficult for him. Henry attempts to give Arlo a sense of purpose by putting him in charge of guarding their silo, and helps him set a trap. It captures a feral caveboy, but Arlo cannot bring himself to kill him, and sets him free. Disappointed, Henry takes Arlo to track the caveboy, leading them into a ravine. Henry saves Arlo from a flash flood before being killed by debris.

Without his father, Arlo shoulders more of the workload. He spots the same caveboy inside the silo and blaming him for his father's death, chases him into a river, where both are swept downstream. Arlo is knocked unconscious by a rock, and awakens to find himself miles from home. As he tries to return, his leg is caught by a boulder. The next day, Arlo wakes to find his leg has been freed. The caveboy appears with food, and leads Arlo to a berry tree. The caveboy then fends off a large snake, amazing Arlo, and impressing Forrest Woodbush, a nearby eccentric ''Styracosaurus'' who wants to keep the boy. He forces Arlo to compete with him to give the boy a name he will respond to, and Arlo wins when he calls the boy "Spot". Arlo and Spot bond as Arlo laments his lost family, and Spot reveals that his own parents are both dead.

Later, when a storm strikes, Arlo runs away in fear and loses the riverbank he has been following home. The next morning, Arlo wakes to find Spot at his side. They are noticed by a band of pterodactyls, who appear to be conducting a rescue operation but turn out to be savagely carnivorous. When the pterodactyls try to eat Spot, Arlo and Spot flee, happening upon a pair of ''Tyrannosaurus'' named Nash and Ramsey, who drive off the pterodactyls. Nash, Ramsey, and their father Butch have lost their herd of longhorns, so Arlo offers Spot's help in sniffing them out. The group locates the herd, but Butch recognizes the work of cattle rustlers. Arlo and Spot lure the four rustler ''Velociraptors'' into the open, allowing Butch and his family to attack. After the rustlers have been driven off, Arlo joins the ''Tyrannosaurus'' in driving the cattle south. Later, he sees the familiar mountain peaks of his homeland in the distance, and leaves with Spot to return home. Along the way, they encounter an adult feral caveman in the distance. Spot is intrigued, but Arlo dissuades him and they continue on. As another storm approaches, the pterodactyls return, attack, and carry Spot away. Arlo becomes entangled in vines, where he has a vision of Henry leading him home. Arlo instead resolves to save Spot, making the vision of his father proud before it fades away. Arlo finds and attacks the pterodactyls, who have cornered Spot in the river. Arlo and Spot together plunge the pterodactyls into the water, where they are swept helplessly downstream. When a landslide causes a giant wave, Arlo leaps into the water to rescue Spot, and the two are swept away toward a waterfall. Arlo protects Spot as they go over the falls, and carries him to shore.

As they near Arlo's home, the two are approached by the caveman and his entire family, who show great interest in Spot. With great reluctance, Arlo pushes Spot to join this new adoptive family, and the two of them share a tearful goodbye. Arlo finally arrives home to his mother and siblings, and makes his mark on the silo between those of his mother and father.

Black is a hot-headed boy whose dream is to win the Pokémon League. He owns a Munna and a Braviary, which he nicknamed after their evolved forms, Musha (after Musharna) and Brav (Braviary). Black's dream takes up so much of his mind that overthinking would cause him to faint, so he uses Musha to eat up his dream in order to give him more space to think. Proffesor Juniper delivers a package containing 3 Pokémon (the Unova starters Tepig, Snivy, and Oshawatt) and 3 Pokédexes to be given to Black and his childhood friends, Cheren and Bianca. A mishap causes the Tepig to run away (with Black chasing after it) and the other 2 Pokédexes to become damaged. Black befriends the Tepig, calling it Tep, and sets out on his journey.

During the production of a commercial in Route 1, Black arrives to announce his dream, accidentally getting roped into show business by White. White and her Tepig Gigi work for the BW Agency, who book Pokémon for roles in movies and TV shows. Black gets blamed for a Galvantua attacking the set (which Black catches and names Tula), and has to pay for the damages by working for the BW Agency. In Accumula Town, Black and White see a speech by Team Plasma from Ghetsis, who urges people to liberate their Pokémon by releasing them, regardless of their connection to their trainers. Black opposes this and tries to chase Team Plasma down, but is stopped by N, a mysterious trainer who emphasizes the importance of listening to Pokémon. N challenges Black to a battle, opposing the use of Pokéballs and the Pokédex. Black loses, but the courage of his Tepig in battle shocks N, lamenting the idea that Pokémon want to be with humans.

Black and White continue their journey through the Unova reigon. Black meets up with Cheren and Bianca in Striaton City and team up to defeat the city's Gym Leader, White proposes the idea of a Pokémon Musical to debut in Nimbasa City, and Black faces off against Team Plasma several times; Once in Route 3, when a group of Team Plasma grunts kidnap Musha, in Nacrene City, where Team Plasma attempts to steal a fossil from the Nacrene City Museum, in Castelia City, where Black finds a stronghold where "liberated" Pokémon are being kept, and in Liberty Garden, where Team Plasma is trying to capture Mythical Pokémon Victini. The Pokémon Musical in Nimbasa City goes off with little issues, but right after White is kidnapped by N and trapped on a Ferris wheel. Black's Tepig also evolves (to White's frustration) and is renamed Nite after Pignite. While Black fights gym leader Elesa, N reveals to White that he is Team Plasma's King, given a responsibility by Ghetsis to save Pokémon from trainers. N manages to talk Gigi into leaving White by showing its ability to fight, and White, unable to accept that revelation, jumps out the Ferris wheel, with N's Servine following her. Although traumatized, White decides to temporarily suspend her business and take up Pokémon battling, deciding to train and build a team on the Battle Subway in Nimbasa City.

While White trains in the Battle Subway, Black continues on his journey to win the Pokémon League. He defeats a Zorua that was causing troubles with the drawbridge connecting Nimbasa and Driftveil City, and he teams up with Cheren to fight Team Plasma members in the Cold Storage in Driftveil City. Black also defeats the Driftveil City Gym Leader, Clay. Clay reveals that Team Plasma is planning to invade the Nacrene City Museum to obtain the Dark Stone, which contains the Legendary Pokémon Zekrom, who represents the extreme ideals of Team Plasma. Black defeats Gym Leader Skyla as proof he can face Team Plasma, and the Gym Leaders and Black travel to the Nacrene Museum to battle Team Plasma. While the Gym leaders fight Team Plasma, Black goes inside the Museum to find the Dark Stone. However, the Gym Leaders (except Brycen and Drayden) are defeated and kidnapped, and a Team Plasma grunt disguised as Elite Four member Brycen takes the Dark Stone and delivers it to Ghetsis, who uses N to reawaken Zekrom. Black learns that he must reawaken Reshiram, the Pokémon of Truth, from the Light Stone and use it to defeat Team Plasma, training at the Tubeline bridge. Blacks Pignite evolves again and is renamed Bo, after its final evolution Emboar. Black defeats Gym Leader Brycen, but panics after learning that the Pokémon League was set to happen one week later instead of three months later, deciding not the obtain the final Gym Badge. Meanwhile, White, now with a full team of Pokémon, helps Bianca discover what to do with her life, as she feels that she hasn't gotten better as a Trainer, and in gratitude, gifts her Pokédex to White.

Black and White reunite, but learn that N has defeated Alder, the Unova League Champion, as part of a plan to prove himself as the superior trainer and convince everyone to liberate their own Pokémon. N tries to reason with Black, White, and Professor Juniper, saying that the professors had been mistreating their Pokémon and that he wanted to liberate them as part of Team Plasma's goal. Black tries to battle N to get information on where Team Plasma's headquaters is, but his Pokémon decide not to fight N. Black tries to get Musha's help, but Musha flies off, which N claims is because it doesn't want to eat his dream, which has been warped from the stress of having to defeat Team Plasma and his insecurities of not being able to reach the Pokémon League in time. Black faints from the shock of hearing this, and N flies off.

The day of the Pokémon League arrives, and Black wakes up to discover that the opening ceremony is already underway. Black considers leaving for home, but regains some of his confidence when realizing he would be disappointing his Pokémon. Black challenges Drayden to a last minute battle to obtain the final Gym Badge, and a message from the Gym Leaders fully reignites his confidence, allowing him to defeat Drayden and enter the Pokémon league as the 32nd contestant. The final 8 contestants are Black, Iris, Cheren, Marlon, Leo, Gray (A Team Plasma Sage in disguise), Looker (disguised as Lou Karr to investigate Team Plasma), and Hood Man (later revealed to be Colress, the antagonist of the Black 2/White 2 arc). White attempts to investigate Hood Man while the Pokémon League is happening. In the finals, Black faces Cheren, who was manipulated by Team Plasma after their encounter at the Cold Storage, and is convinced that he can win the battle with raw strength. White manages to uncover Gray's real identity and tells Black that Team Plasma has invaded the Pokémon League, but she is teleported away. Black defeats Cheren thanks to the help of Musha (who has finally evolved), and his anger at Team Plasma for manipulating his friend reawakens Reshiram from the Light Stone.

The awakening of Reshiram prompts Team Plasma to unleash their final part of their plan, revealing a castle that was underneath the Pokémon League stadium, with N flying on his Zekrom. While the gym leaders, Elite Four, various trainers Black and White met on their journey, and Black's Pokémon fight the Seven Sages, Black flies on Reshiram and faces N. Black understanding Reshiram's abilities using the Pokédex, something that is opposed by Team Plasma's ideals, allows him to "hear" Reshiram's voice, something that surprises N. while Black fights N inside the castle, White wakes up in N's playroom. There, N's caretakers explain that N was orphaned and always had the ability to hear Pokémon, something that Ghetsis used to his advantage in crafting Team Plasma. N has also released all of his Pokémon, including Gigi, where it reunites with White. Black defeats N, and the sudden appearance of N's Zorua makes him realize that Pokémon want to be with their trainers. Ghetsis appears just as things seem to calm down, revealing that he is N's adoptive father, as well as his true intentions; Take over the world and manipulate people to give up their Pokémon, making Ghetsis the only one to use them. Ghetsis fights Black's Pokémon all at once, but Black defeats Ghetsis using Musha. Black and White reunite once more after the battle is over. N regains consciousness and flies off with his Zekrom, wondering what's next for him. Reshiram starts turning back into the Light Stone, and Ghetsis manages to force Black in. The Light Stone flies off as White watches. A Team Plasma member befriends a Foongus as they leave Team Plasma's castle alongside other members.

Tasia (Dolores del Río), a beautiful lower class dancer from Russia, falls for the heir to the throne Prince, Grand Duke Eugene (Charles Farrell), but only admires him from a distance. At the outbreak of the Russian Revolution, the Duke falls in captivity and this allows Tasia be near him.

Boston Blackie's (Chester Morris) wealthy friend, Arthur Manleder (Lloyd Corrigan), purchases an upscale bookstore from aged Wilfred Kittredge (George M. Carleton), but retains his services as a book expert. However, when Kittredge becomes ill just before an important auction he was to conduct, Blackie proves that he can impersonate him, fooling everyone, including Police Inspector Farraday (Richard Lane).

With the assistance of store employee Gloria (Lynn Merrick), Blackie runs the auction without a hitch. The centerpiece is a rare first edition of Charles Dickens' ''Pickwick Papers'', which goes for $62,000. However, the purchaser discovers that the book is a fake and demands his money back. $50,000 had already been sent to the book's owner/forger, Porter Hadley. Blackie tracks him down, but arrives just too late. Hadley's partner, Gloria, finds him packed and ready to leave. She shoots him and takes the money. Blackie hears the gunfire, forcing her to flee; in her haste, the money gets stuck in the other doorway. Blackie takes the envelope of cash. By sheer bad timing, Farraday and Sergeant Matthews (Frank Sully) arrive while Blackie is examining Hadley's body, and arrest him for murder.

Blackie has little difficulty escaping. Still unaware of the identity of the real murderer, he takes Gloria into his confidence. He puts the money in the store's safe while she watches with interest. That night, she and her husband, escaped safecracker Jack Higgins (Steve Cochran), break into the shop, but are forced to leave without the cash when Blackie and Arthur arrive.

When Jack arranges to meet Blackie, Blackie recognizes him. He agrees to give Higgins half the proceeds, but Blackie's sidekick "the Runt" (George E. Stone) informs Gloria that he will not be bringing real cash, and that the $50,000 is stashed in Arthur's home safe. Jack and an accomplice tie Blackie up. Jack then leaves to get the money. Blackie gets free, phones Farraday and heads to Arthur's suite. There, he and the Runt capture and bind Jack. Then Blackie forces Gloria to write out a confession, convincing her how coldblooded he can be by pretending to shoot her husband dead (the unseen Runt just knocks him out). Jack regains consciousness and control of the situation, allowing Gloria to burn her confession. When Farraday and his men break in, Blackie presents the inspector with a blank sheet of paper, claiming he switched the pages. Gloria incriminates herself and is arrested and taken away with her husband, Jack Higgins.

The narrator first starts out as a feral puppy. A few weeks later, after being nursed by their mother, a feral as well, the dog and his siblings Fast, Sister, and Hungry go outside of their den to explore the woods around them. Soon after, men come and capture them. The dogs arrive at a place called the Yard, where dozens of abandoned dogs reside under the guidance of a gentle old woman whom the narrator calls Senora. The narrator, named Toby by Senora, adjusts to his new lifestyle. One day, many of the newer dogs at the Yard are whisked off to a building (a veterinarian office). A new dog arrives, named Spike, who is very aggressive with the other dogs, and injures Toby. Not long after, animal control service agents arrive with orders to shut down the place due to poor sanitation and welfare conditions. Many dogs, including Toby, are subsequently euthanized.

Toby now is reincarnated as a Golden Retriever puppy and is nursing from a new mother. A few weeks after birth, when Toby and his new brothers and sisters have matured enough, he and the others are allowed to play outside the cage. Toby climbs up onto a table and bites the doorknob, opening the gate to the outside world and leaving him to explore the real world. A truck driver picks up Toby on the road and calls him "Fella." The man drives to a bar. After the man has been gone for several hours, Toby begins suffering from heat exhaustion in the cab.

A woman breaks the car window, and rescues Toby. She brings him home, and presents him to her eight-year-old son, Ethan. Toby is renamed Bailey. Over the course of many years, Bailey lives a full life with Ethan, and accompanies him through many difficulties, including arson, which leads to Ethan permanently injuring his leg, and ending his promising athletic career. Ethan goes to live with his grandparents at their farm in Michigan so he can be with his girlfriend Hannah and finish his senior year in high school. Around that time, things are not going well in the family, with Ethan's injury, an eventual breakup with Hannah, and a divorce between Ethan's parents. Soon after moving, Ethan goes off to college, leaving Bailey with infrequent visits from him during the holidays. Bailey's health starts to decline, with him taking naps very often and being weak. Soon, Ethan's mother and grandparents take him to the vet, where he is once again put down.

Bailey wakes up once again as a German Shepherd. Bailey, who realizes that he is now a girl, is picked out and named Ellie by a police officer, named Jakob, and trained to be a search-and-rescue dog. Jakob and Ellie find a kidnapped girl but while getting the man into custody he shoots Jakob, injuring him so that he can no longer be a policeman.

Ellie then gets put into the care of one of Jakob's colleagues, Maya. After passing of old age, he is reborn but this time as a Labrador Retriever with Wendi, his new owner, who is ecstatic with her new pet, whom she names Bear. She cannot keep him because of a no-pet rule in her apartment building. Instead, she gives him to her mother, who is dating an alcoholic. Neither treat Bear very well, and the mother's boyfriend, fed up with the dog upon receiving a notice that he needs to provide better living conditions, ditches him on a country road. Bear recognizes his surroundings, having been there before with Ethan. Using the skills he learned as Ellie, Bear is able to trail the scent of one of the farm's animals to the Farm, where Ethan lives. Ethan, now an elderly man, decides to keep Bear, who he renames Buddy, and marries Hannah. Years pass, and Ethan suffers from an apparent stroke, and as he is dying suddenly recognizes that Buddy is Bailey.

In the autumn of 1810, the French forces of Marshal Masséna are invading Portugal and are temporarily halted by the Anglo-Portuguese army under Viscount Wellington at the Battle of Bussaco. As a bitter winter approaches, Wellington withdraws his troops towards the fortifications he has prepared in secret at the Lines of Torres Vedras. Using a scorched earth defence, he forces the inhabitants to evacuate the land in front of the Lines and destroys all supplies which could be useful to the French. The film illustrates these dramatic events by a series of vignettes which show the effects on combatants, both regular soldiers and guerrillas, and on the civilian population.

South of the U.S. border, Don José Tostado, a Mexican caballero, falls in love with Dolores Romero, a dance-hall girl. Owning one of the larger ranches in the area, Tostado is not used to people telling him no. When Romero resists his advances, using a fictional boyfriend as her excuse, this only increases his interest in her, and his attempts to win her favor. As part of that attempt, he plans to throw a gala in her honor.

Meanwhile, Romero falls for Johnny Powell, a dealer at a nearby casino. She confides in him that she has no interest in Tostado, but doesn't know how to get him to leave her alone. Powell offers to take her away and get married. They make their plans, but before they can carry them out, Tostado learns of them and hatches a plot of his own: he frames Powell for a murder and has him arrested. When Dolores hears that Tostado has paid the jailer to kill Johnny during an escape attempt, she makes a deal with Tostado to give herself to him in exchange for Johnny's life and freedom. Tostado agrees.

When Johnny is freed, Dolores makes it clear that she is no longer interested in him, and that she intends to marry Tostado. Dolores leaves with Tostado, heading for his ranch. On the way, she attempts to commit suicide, but is stopped by Tostado, who is startled to discover that she would rather be dead than be stuck with him for the rest of her life. When they arrive back at his hacienda, they are surprised by Johnny, who fights Tostado. When they police arrive, they arrest Johnny, and are ready to execute him summarily, on Tostado's orders. Dolores intercedes on Johnny's behalf, and her pleas have their desired effect. Realizing that he's beaten, Tostado calls off the police, and lets Dolores leave with Johnny.
