After a pandemic-induced social collapse, Earth is controlled by the Trusts, corporate entities dominated by the oligarchic Families. The Trusts function as both business conglomerates and charitable NGOs; having restored order, their power has largely supplanted that of governments, and their managerial cadres (serving the owner-class Families) exercise quasi- feudal authority over their subordinates. In the wider solar system, asteroid settlers that did not experience the pandemics preserve a more liberal mode of existence; they maintain cautious links with the Trusts, cooperating on matters of mutual interest. Interstellar travel via quantum teleportation is possible, but difficult and hugely expensive; each launch is enormously energy-intensive, consuming a medium-sized ice asteroid. The Trusts and the asteroid dwellers collaborate to send a large scientific expedition to the planet Isis, the only world found so far to possess a complex biota. A significantly older world than Earth, Isis features a rich ecology which is - like Earth's - DNA-based. However, Isian life violently outcompetes terrestrial biology; any exposure to Isian microorganisms causes death within hours. The human research stations on Isis and the expedition's HQ in orbit must be kept sealed and sterile, with elaborate anti-contamination countermeasure. The world is nonetheless deemed worthy of intensive investigation, as understanding an entire evolutionary process parallel to Earth's could provide important biological insights. As firsthand research on Isis is extremely difficult, an initiative within the Trusts produces a small group of genetically-engineered children specially designed to survive its environment, with enhanced immune systems capable of countering the ravenous Isian microbiome. During a Byzantine power struggle among the Trusts' ruling Families, however, the project is deprecated and the children - all girls - callously disposed of to a brutal orphanage, where most of them die. The sole survivor, Zoe Fisher, is rescued when her patron finally prevails in the inter-Trust power struggle, and is sent to the Isis system, where the researchers are having increasing difficulty maintaining their quarantine. The Isian biota seems to be adapting to their containment measures in ways that seems almost purposeful, with the seeming goal of breaching the seals of the human surface stations. Zoe is dispatched to one of the surface stations, where she meets and befriends a young man from the asteroid-dweller contingent, and begins making unprotected exploratory trips through the Isian ecology. The marine station is eventually lost when its seals are compromised by a heretofore unknown Isian organism. Some evacuees are quarantined aboard the orbital HQ, where they eventually sicken and die as well, after first experiencing strange hallucinations. The orbital station is found to be contaminated with a microscopic agent capable of tunneling through rubber seals. Its population becomes increasingly ill and erratic; the manager in charge destroys the quantum-entanglement transceiver that is the expedition's only means of communication with Earth. On Isis, the microbiota begins degrading equipment, including the drones and robots necessary for external maintenance of the surface stations. Zoe's patron arrives on a quantum transport, and assumes command of the expedition. With evacuation of the surface stations looming, Zoe is sent on a last-ditch effort to investigate the "diggers," a primitive Isian species that is suspected to be near- sentient. Zoe encounters the diggers, but the poor condition of her escorting drones makes them unable to intervene when the diggers assault and abduct her. The surface station is abandoned; Zoe's asteroid-dweller friend (who has become her lover) stays behind, going on a hopeless mission in a suit of hazmat armor to rescue her. He finds Zoe dying inside the diggers' underground colony; his own suit breached, they wait to die together. In space, the inhabitants of the orbital station quietly die. Its badly-ill and no longer rational manager attempts to launch the expedition's only Earth-return vehicle to evacuate the senior staff, but all of them also die during the shuttle ride out to it. Meanwhile, a feverish Zoe experiences a hallucinatory quantum link with a Gaian super-organism consisting of not only all the life of Isis, but a vast number of worlds throughout the galaxy whose life shares a common origin via panspermia, all of them sharing a connection on a quantum level. This line of descent includes Earth life, which however descends from a genetically- damaged branch in which the quantum link has been broken. The emergent intelligence cherishes the sentient life that occasionally evolves on its worlds, and regrets that is cannot communicate with humans or control the virulence of the Isian biome. Zoe, her lover, and - it is implied - all the humans who had died after being infected by Isis are "remembered" by the super-organism, in a sense living forever within the immortal quantum "cloud." The remaining ground stations fail one by one. Zoe's patron - having been implanted with the same experimental anti-Isian-life countermeasures before leaving Earth - is left alone on the slowly deteriorating orbital station, as the only living human in the Isis system. In a distant epilogue, a second Earth expedition arrives a century later. It is revealed that the Trusts have fallen, and a more humane regime now rules the Solar System. The new arrivals have advanced synthetic immune systems that make it possible for them to live on Isis without protection. ===== Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up with Me is set in Berkeley, California.

Freddy plans to go with Doodle to her abortion clinic appointment, and tells Laura that she won't be able to see her on her birthday. Freddy later receives a text from Laura concerning an emergency. As a result, Freddy visits Laura and is told that there is no emergency. Rather, Laura explains that for her birthday, she wanted to see Freddy, despite her earlier assurance that Freddy's absence would be alright. Freddy is taken aback, and as people begin showing up at Laura's home, Freddy leaves to go to Doodle's appointment. Following the appointment, Freddy consoles Doodle at the latter's home. Freddy then finally receives an email response from Anna Vice, who advises Freddy to ask herself what her love for Laura offers in regard to being a better person.

The Korean won has crashed massively, making that haul effectively worthless. Jun-seok proposes one last heist to his best friends Jang-ho and Ki-hoon, to escape their miserable situations. Their target is an illegal gambling house, which stores hefty stacks of US dollars. The trio recruits Sang-soo, who currently works in the gambling house. After getting firearms from Bong-sik – a friend Jun-seok knew in prison – the quartet proceeds with the heist, which finishes messy but successful. They take a large sum of cash and the gambling house's surveillance hard drives, which contain footage of shady dealings between the gambling house's owners and various criminals. After the heist, Sang-soo requests to stay in the city a little longer to continue working at the gambling house, to avoid raising suspicion. The trio leaves to go to Ki-hoon's parents' home. The loss of the surveillance hard drives makes the gambling house's owners unhappy. They recruit contract killer Han to track the quartet and retrieve the hard drives. Han visits Bong-sik, forces him to call Jun-seok to reveal the trio's current location, and kills him. Han tracks down Sang-soo, and kills him off- screen, taking his phone. Jun-seok wakes up from a nightmare and goes to a bar. He receives a call from Sang-soo's phone, but on realizing that someone else inside the bar has his phone, he leaves in panic and rushes Jang-ho and Ki-hoon to immediately flee, knowing that someone is hunting them down.

In the shootout, Han shoots Jang- ho multiple times, and the latter eventually succumbs to his injuries. As Jun- seok is about to be shot dead by Han, a group of masked men, led by Bong-sik's twin brother Bong-soo, arrives to kill Han to seek revenge for the death of his brother. The masked men shoot Han numerous times, and he falls off the edges of the docks, into the sea. At dawn, Jun-seok takes the boat to Kenting, Taiwan, where he stays for some time, but he still cannot forget about the loss of his friends.

Not used to being around kids her own age, and feeling very vulnerable after so much loss, she establishes a loner self among her classmates. On her own she explores the 'Wasteland', nearby salt marshes fed by the North Sea. In her internal world she is open and listening, and one day while she's digging around she digs much deeper than usual as if possessed, and discovers an immovable object made of wood. Her shovel breaks off a part of that object, which she carries with her from that point on. Carrying the wooden splint with her, she first begins to see the Viking ship itself, back when the North Sea came farther inland as a wide river and the pool was an actual port. She slips into the experience of being lashed to the deck for safety as a child when her Danish Viking raider family came over to East Anglia. The ship and its inhabitants become her internal fascination, and she wills herself to go deeper into the feeling of those lives. She finds books on the area's history and sees ships just like that of her vision, during the period when the Vikings raiders became traders and neighbours to the Saxon residents. One day as she holds the wooden splint in her hand, she feels reality around her transform with sound vibration. She can hear the bustle of a busy camp momentarily, and then it fades away. From that point she continues to seek out and have intensifying experiences first with sound only including battle scenes with cries of 'The Norsemen' from the inland Saxon communities. As the time slip experiences continue she not only can see what is happening, but she experiences events physically, and can also understand their foreign language perfectly. She slips in to the life of Estrith, her ancestor, as she is betrothed to Edmund in the name of peace between the peoples. Simultaneous with those intense time slip experiences, Betony gets to know the people living nearby. She befriends Yetty and Nott, who live in a boathouse and is beside herself when their home is set on fire while Nott is away ill (and Yetty with him). She goes to Yetty's employer, Carrie Thorpe, to inquire about seeing Yetty, and they become acquainted. When Yetty moves to the manor to stay on and help Mrs. Thorpe, Betony becomes a frequent visitor (and later, employee). She succeeds in her studies and meets Lionel. After witnessing a life-changing event for Estrith, Betony feels compelled to rush into the flowing river and nearly drowns back in the present time. She is pulled out by Orlando, speaking at first in a language she can't understand until she returns to the present day. She closes the door to the past by throwing that piece of wood in the fire, and turns instead to her actual present-day life. When Linney returns home next, they move towards a serious relationship. Linney has invited an archaeologist to the area, and they try and find the buried ship, but are not able to - nor anything else from those early settlements. Despite the disappointment, Betony decides to study history, specialise in the Saxon-Viking period, and to make teaching about that period her life's work. ===== Lau Chat (Yuen Biao), a young talented martial artist, joins Po Chi Lam to study under master Wong Fei-hung, who is away traveling in Asia.

The Herd is led by their great matriarch Gaia and her younger sister Shani, who has helped keep their family safe. Shani has also been raising her spirited son Jomo, a very energetic young elephant who just wants to play with the other animals, such as lechwes and baboons. When the land is about to dry up, Gaia leads the elephants to an almost dry waterhole to enjoy the mud before leaving the desert. They are soon joined by other elephants who visit, play, and drink from the water.

Shani shows a confused Jomo a life lesson. The herd moves on and finds another waterhole (this time with water). As the elephants drink, Jomo plays with a group of warthogs. The water is ruined by its previous visitors, so the elephants munch on Mopani trees but are chased off by caterpillars eating the entire trees. The Herd continues their journey to a small little island. There is no water for them to drink, but Gaia leads her herd to Baobab trees which they could drink water from its sap. Shani teaches the young elephants how to get sap by ripping the thick bark. The Herd rests on the island for the night. Continuing their journey, the Herd trudges through sand storms. Shani and Gaia sense the ground trembling, which meant a river close by, but they are despaired when they reach the river. It is far below the cliffs where the elephants are, but thanks to the help of a flock of Quelea birds, the herd makes their way to Victoria Falls, the place that Gaia has been searching for.

Gaia realizes that the Angolan falls are early, and she and Shani immediately gather the herd to use the shortest route, but they soon find themselves confronted by a pride of Lions. As the elephants settle in for the night, the lions attack Jomo, but he is saved by Shani. But by morning, Gaia dies, with the herd sharing a mournful goodbye to their matriarch, while the lions share their feast. Shani finds her leadership to the other elephants difficult. A week later, an elephant gives birth to a newborn baby calf. Jomo is unimpressed, but soon lets go of being the baby of the family and warms up to his new playmate. Shani soon uses Gaia's memories, and begins to lead the herd back to the Delta. They are soon confronted by a rival herd of elephants, who are going after the newborn calf. Shani stands her ground at the rival matriarch, and the rivals retreat. They make their way home to Okavango, where the land is bursting back to life.

He finds himself in a dark cell with other inmates, who were arrested for crimes they committed out of desperation, or for "spreading communism." Matigari shares his food with them, which reminds the drunk inmate of the last supper. When he tells them how he got arrested, the inmates are amazed to see this freedom fighter in person, as they have already heard the story of him confronting the police. Having exchanged their stories, the inmates are released under mysterious circumstances, which leads to Matigari becoming a legend who is compared to an angel and even God himself for being able to escape prison. People all over the country have been adding more fantastic details to his stories, glorifying him as a saint. When he now roams the country on his quest to find truth and justice, he is constantly sent away because the people do not recognize him. He visits ordinary people until an old woman tells him to go to the students, as they are also searching the truth. As it turns out, however, the student and the teacher are too afraid to help Matigari out. He then decides to go to the church to ask the priest for advice. The priest, being a puppet of the government, is no help either. Instead, he suggests Matigari attend a meeting later that day and talk to the Minister for Truth and Justice himself. At the meeting, which is observed by representatives from a number of Western countries, the prisoners who escaped with Matigari earlier are presented to the public and convicted by judges and a jury of dignitaries loyal to the government. The only man who is not convicted turns out to be an informer. The Minister also announces that Mr. William's company has graciously given shares to the great leader and himself, claiming that now the people own part of the company, as the government is their party. Matigari confronts the Minister for Truth and Justice directly, calling his government unlawful and accusing him of being part of the oppressing force, which exploits their people. The Minister presents Matigari as a madman, before sending him and Ngaruro, who stood up for the workers' rights, to a mental asylum. The people at the assembly, however, start singing songs about revolution, which are quickly banned by the Minister. After the meeting, the government keeps imposing stricter laws to oppress the people in an effort to eradicate the revolutionary thoughts of the people. At the mental hospital, Matigari decides to dig up his weapons and fight the oppressors with violence, as he has realized that words and reasoning alone do not affect them. Again, with the help of Guthera and Muriuki, he manages to escape from the mental asylum. He plans to get his weapons and attack Mr. Williams' house to take what is his. On the way to the tree where his guns are buried, the group manages to steal a Mercedes from a couple having sex in the car, which they later find out belongs to the wife of the Minister of Truth and Justice. The news on the radio informs them of Ngaruro's death. Matigari is not able to get to the tree, however, after the informer has discovered him. Chased by the police, he drives the Mercedes through the front door into Mr. Williams' house. On the way, he sees masses of people waiting for a miracle to happen, as the word of his return has spread like wildfire. The house eventually explodes, but Matigari is able to escape. Guthera, Muriuki, and Matigari then try to run away from the police, who are relentlessly chasing them. Just before reaching a river, which Matigari says will lead to their safety, he and Guthera are gunned down. Their bodies fall into the river and are never found, leading to new myths and legends about Matigari having survived. Muriuki, the only one having survived the struggle, eventually reaches the fig tree, digs up Matigari's guns and starts to sing the song of victory. ===== Princess introduces herself to Eugene, Ezekiel and Yumiko, but as they are trying to figure out her unique personality, a group of walkers appear.

In response, Daryl can't promise that he will never leave, but assures Judith that she has a larger family than just him. Concurrently, Beta continues leading the horde towards Oceanside, but suddenly stops when he feels something is amiss and begins to suspect that the survivors are leading him into a trap. Just then, he spots one of the hospital cats prowling and the voices in Beta's head then direct him towards the hospital. Shadowing the horde, Alden and Aaron notice it changing direction, and try to contact Gabriel. Failing to get a signal, the two decide to retreat, but are unexpectedly surrounded by a group of Whisperers. Immediately after Daryl and Judith's talk, Daryl is contacted by Gabriel over walkie- talkie; Gabriel reveals that the hospital is surrounded by the horde. Once arriving outside the hospital, Beta begins to chant and hallucinates the walkers doing so too. ===== ===== Jade Cochran is an incredulous, cynical waitress who works at a rundown cafe.

He and his wife Kausalya (Pushpalatha) have named their three sons after the characters in Ramayana, namely Raman (S.V.Shekar), Lakshmanan (Veeramachaneni Subhakar) and Bharathan (Dilip). Ponnambalam's brother Sankaran (Visu) who has lost his wife and daughter in a car accident, lives with Ponnambalam and his family. Sankaran is a drunkard. Lakshmanan loves Bhanu (Vanitha), daughter of (Typist Gopu). And he asks Raman to help him out. Raman talks to his parents about getting a daughter-in-law for the house, but his parents think Raman is referring to his own marriage, and fix his marriage. Raman's wedding is arranged with Justice Vedalingam (Charuhasan)'s daughter Janaki (Urvasi). After the wedding, Janaki notices Sankaran drinking every day. Nevertheless she takes care of him, and serves him food when he comes home late. Sankaran is reminded of his daughter when he sees Janaki, and seeing the love and affection of a daughter from Janaki, Sankaran turns over a new leaf. Meanwhile Bharathan who works in Jamshedpur, has missed his brother's wedding, as he is travelling all over India for office work. When Bharathan returns home on vacation, and sees Janaki for the first time, he is shocked. He tells his parents that Janaki used to work as a prostitute in Hyderabad. His parents are also shocked and start ill-treating Janaki, but however they ignore the fact that Bharathan has visited many prostitutes in different cities, and do not show any anger towards him.

Sankaran and Lakshmanan travel to Hyderabad carrying Janaki's photo and question different brothel owners about the girl in the photo. One of the brothel owners says she has seen her before and that she was sold to someone in Mumbai. Sankaran and Lakshmanan travel to Mumbai and after doing some searching around, they finally find a prostitute (also Urvasi) that looks identical to Janaki. She says her name is Madhavi, and that many years ago, her father who was a lawyer in Ambur made her mother Mangala Devi pregnant and left her without marrying her. She says that after Mangala Devi died, she searched for her father, but couldn't find him. She shows them a photo of her father and her mother. Sankaran realizes that the man in the photo is a young looking Vedalingam. Sankaran takes Madhavi to meet Vedalingam, and Vedalingam acknowledges she is his daughter, but refuses to accept her as his daughter in society, as that would spoil his image. Sankaran and Lakshmanan also realize that before they reveal Madhavi's story to Ponnambalam's family and send Janaki there, they need to make sure that Ponnambalam and his family will accept Janaki with a whole heart. So they decide to play a game. They ask Madhavi to dress like Janaki and live with her father for some time and take him to visit different temples for a few weeks, for a change of mind. They arrange fake police to tell Ponnambalam and Kausalya that Janaki committed suicide. After a few days, they ask Janaki to dress like Madhavi, and take her to Ponnambalam's house. Ponnambalam, Bharathan, Raman and Kausalya are shocked seeing Madhavi, and realize that they made a mistake of accusing Janaki. Finally Sankaran suggests that for all the sins that they had done, they need to get Madhavi married to one of their three sons. After a lot of hesitation, Ponnambalam and Kausalya agree. Since Bharathan had already slept with Madhavi in the Hyderabad brothel, he volunteers to marry Madhavi. During the wedding, the real Madhavi brings Vedalingam and comes and stops the wedding between Bharathan and Janaki. Vedalingam accepts that he cheated Mangala Devi many years ago, and both Janaki and Madhavi are his daughters, and that he takes full responsibility for Madhavi's ruined life. Janaki and Raman are re-united. Madhavi says she cannot marry Bharathan as she feels she does not belong in their family, and that she needs to spend some time alone to think what to do with her life. She thanks Sankaran for all his help, and leaves with her father.

The motion picture's storyline, however, as described in 1916 reviews and news items, expanded considerably on Casey's personal life outside of baseball. He is portrayed living at the house of his sister (Kate Toncray) and brother-in-law (Bert Hadley) and working as a clerk and "errand boy" at Hicks' General Store in Mudville. Although he is a baseball hero in his community, Casey away from the playing field has few friends or admirers due to his clumsy, coarse behavior. Only a "half-witted" man (Frank Hughes) and the town's little children like the giant-sized athlete. Among the latter is Casey's six-year-old niece (Mae Giraci) to whom he is deeply devoted. Despite his unattractive appearance and social ineptness, Casey is infatuated with a pretty, young woman in town, Angevine Blodgett (Marguerite Marsh). She is the daughter of the local judge, is cordial to Casey whenever she sees him at the general store or elsewhere in public, but she is in love with Bert Collins (Frank Bennett), a handsome "college man" she hopes to marry. Collins is also a skillful pitcher on the baseball team of Mudville's bitter sports rival, Frogtown. Central to the film's story is a three-game series of baseball contests between Mudville and Frogtown. Mudville wins the first game thanks to Casey's hitting and fielding, but Frogtown wins the next one because Casey is unable to play due to burning his hands while preventing a fire at a community dance. By the time Mudville hosts the decisive third game against Frogtown, Casey is sufficiently healed to play. Unfortunately, his niece is seriously injured that same day when she falls out of a tree. Refusing to leave her bedside as she is being treated by the town doctor (Hal Wilson), Casey misses the start of the game. Later he hears townfolk calling for him, so he finally decides he must play and instructs his friend to stay with the girl. When Casey arrives at the ballpark, the game is in the bottom half of the ninth inning and Mudville has two men on base, trails by two runs, and is only one out from losing the series. Casey now steps into the batter's box, and the crowd's excitement grows, for the partisan spectators are confident the game will now be won by their home-run hero. Casey allows Frogtown's pitcher to throw two strikes against him, but just as the third pitch is being thrown, the slugger suddenly sees his friend arrive in the ballpark. Thinking he has come to the game with bad news about his niece, a distracted Casey swings and misses the pitch, striking out. After the game Casey is relieved to learn that the girl is better and will recover. Mudville's residents, angry about the loss, blame and shun their former hero. Humiliated and dejected, Casey returns to his sister's house, bundles up his few possessions, and then walks out of town along the railroad tracks, leaving Mudville forever. ===== War Games is a novel in which Detrs kills his sadistic parents and becomes a criminal before joining up for a war on Titan. ===== A man is seen pleading for life as he is beat.

She often mocks Rikio to his face about his body, his flamboyant and flirtatious lifestyle, stardom, copious letters of fan mail as well as the starlets he acts alongside in films.
