As Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and his men are returning from Alexandria, Dwight (Austin Amelio) discovers that Daryl has escaped, and finds the anonymous note Daryl was passed in his cell. When Negan arrives, he has Dwight beaten up and put in Daryl's cell. Negan informs Dwight that Sherry (Christine Evangelista) has run away and wonders if she was responsible for Daryl's escape, but he defends her, leading Negan to question Dwight's own loyalty. He orders Dwight to find and bring back Sherry. After being mended by Dr. Emmett Carson (Tim Parati), Dwight leaves for his and Sherry's home before the apocalypse, having planned long ago to use it as a rendezvous should they get separated. There, he finds a farewell note from Sherry, admitting to helping Daryl to escape. Dwight returns to Sanctuary, bitter.

Meanwhile, Negan allows Eugene (Josh McDermitt) to settle into Sanctuary, being granted several amenities and privileges. When Negan asks him about his credentials, Eugene falls back on his old lies that he has multiple PhDs in biochemistry as well as immunology and microbiology. He also lies about being a member of a ten-person team at the Human Genome Project to fight weaponized diseases. Negan takes a liking to him, and allows him to spend time with his "wives," Tanya (Chloe Aktas), Frankie (Elyse Nicole DuFour), and Amber (Autumn Dial). The women bond with Eugene. Later, Tanya and Frankie quietly approach Eugene about making two poison capsules, explaining that Amber wants to commit suicide; Eugene reluctantly agrees. He finds that he has a position of power as he is able to cut in line and readily request the needed cold capsules to make the pills from the Savior marketplace, and finishes making the pills.

Negan brings Eugene along to the factory floor as he accuses Dr. Carson of allowing Daryl to go free. Dr. Carson refutes this, but Negan shows him a note they found in his office admitting to this, which Dwight had secretly cut from Sherry's letter and planted there. Dr. Carson attempts to blame Dwight, but Dwight remains steadfast. Negan prepares to brand Dr. Carson with a hot iron, but Dr. Carson relents and admits to letting Daryl go. As punishment, Negan throws Dr. Carson into the furnace, burning him to death.

Back in his apartment, Eugene tells Tanya and Frankie that he knows the suicide pills are for Negan, not Amber, and refuses to turn them over; they angrily leave. Negan later arrives and prepares to ask Eugene a question, but Eugene quickly responds "I'm Negan", pledging his allegiance to the Saviors. The next day, Eugene is overseeing defense preparations outside Sanctuary.

Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Michonne (Danai Gurira) leave Alexandria to search for guns to give to the Scavengers to get their help in fighting the Saviors. After one fruitless day, they find an abandoned traveling carnival behind a school; the grounds are filled with walkers of many military soldiers still equipped with their guns. They scout the crowd from the school's roof, but it collapses on them. They land on mattresses inside the empty school, and discover a supply of rations. As they feast and prepare to deal with the walkers the next day, Michonne encourages Rick to take charge of the new world order once they have defeated the Saviors. Rick is unsure of this.

In the morning, the two methodically deal with the walker horde. As they split up to finish off the stragglers, Rick spots a deer. As he owes a deer to Michonne for the one she had to give to the Saviors earlier, he climbs the ferris wheel to snipe it, but the wheel collapses under him and he falls into a crowd of walkers. A horrified Michonne sees this and, thinking the walkers are attacking him, drops her katana. Rick reveals himself, having hidden under a crate, and together they clear the remaining walkers. Rick shows her that the walkers were eating the deer he had spotted. They collect the guns and return to Alexandria before heading off to meet Jadis (Pollyanna McIntosh), the leader of the Scavengers. She says that Rick has not brought enough guns to fulfill their deal. Frustrated, the group returned to Alexandria. Tara (Alanna Masterson), who has contemplated telling the others about the well-armed Oceanside community, meets with Rick after his group returns.

Meanwhile, Rosita (Christian Serratos) ventures out on her own, trying to find more guns, but is unsuccessful. She meets with Father Gabriel (Seth Gilliam) and expresses her desire to kill Negan even if she dies in the attempt. Gabriel cautions her that dying is the easy way out. After Rick and the others return from their meeting with the Scavengers, and knowing they still need to keep looking for weapons, Rosita travels alone to the Hilltop community to meet with Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green), convincing her to join in her attempt to assassinate Negan with a sniper rifle. They both acknowledge they will likely not survive the attempt.

King Ezekiel (Khary Payton), Morgan (Lennie James), Richard (Karl Makinen), and a group of Kingdommers meet the Saviors for their routine supply drop-off, after making their way past a blocked road with an open grave nearby. Since they were tardy and only delivered eleven cantaloupes instead of twelve, the group leader, Gavin (Jayson Warner Smith), explains he's going to teach them a lesson so they understand the stakes and orders Jared (Joshua Mikel) to shoot someone. Jared raises his gun and points it at Richard, who says "Just do it", but Jared shifts his hand at the last second before pulling the trigger and shoots Benjamin (Logan Miller) in the leg. After being rushed to Carol's (Melissa McBride) cottage, Benjamin bleeds out and eventually dies. Back at the urban lot, where they encountered the roadblock, Morgan walks alone and begins to become unhinged, similar to his life before learning aikido, experiencing flashbacks of his son and wife. He contemplates suicide, but backs out. However, he finds the missing cantaloupe hidden in a crate on the street and realizes that Richard intentionally hid the cantaloupe. Morgan returns to the Kingdom and confronts Richard, who explains that he planned to provoke the Saviors into killing him, as Gavin had promised he'd be the first to die if anything went wrong. He'd hoped his death over something so petty would motivate Ezekiel to fight the Saviors.

The next day, Ezekiel and the others return to meet the Saviors for a drop to make up for the missing cantaloupe. Because Richard has not told Ezekiel the truth yet, Morgan strangles Richard to death and tells everyone that Richard staged the missing cantaloupe in order to incite a war. After exposing Richard's plan, Morgan assures Gavin that he knows what's at stake if things went wrong, to which Gavin assents. Morgan drags Richard's corpse to the open grave and buries him there. He then returns to Carol and confesses that Negan and the Saviors killed Abraham, Glenn, Spencer and Olivia. He explains that Rick wants to fight the Saviors and that's why he was at the Kingdom. Morgan prepares to go after the Saviors and promises to kill "every last one", but Carol convinces him to stay. Carol returns to the Kingdom and finds Ezekiel, telling him she's moving to the Kingdom. She tells him that they need to fight and prepare for the imminent war, to which Ezekiel agrees. Back at the cottage, Morgan sits alone on the porch, seemingly whittling the end of his fighting stick into a sharp point.

In an ancient Northern European village near the Arctic, a fisherman named Bruno betrays his fellow villagers to a band of marauders, led by a man called the "Mad Dog." Everyone else in the village dies as a result. Guilt-ridden, Bruno tries to drown himself. But the ghosts of the dead villagers appear and stop him. They curse Bruno with eternal life, dooming him to sail his ship the ''Arctic Tern'' forevermore, unless he achieves three tasks: save a friend's life, rescue a man from betrayal, and give a great treasure away to the needy.

In the 17th century, while out at sea, Bruno rescues an injured Englishman named Admiral Hunter. Hunter is the only survivor of a ship attacked by the pirates, led by the evil Spanish nobleman Lord "Mad Dog" Morgan. Morgan is also the trusted adviser of the King of Spain, but he secretly plans to seize the kingdom for himself.

When the Queen of England commands Admiral Hunter to deliver a peace treaty to Spain, Bruno joins Hunter's delegation to the King of Spain. The other members of the delegation are Bruno's trusted friends, Dr. Chris Edge of Oxford, and a young barman from Plymouth named Adrian.

They sail off for Spain and arrive just in time to save the King of Spain, whom Morgan has been poisoning with arsenic-laced wine. Dr. Edge cures the King. Lord Morgan is captured and banished from the kingdom. The King rewards the English delegation with the signed peace treaty and a large chest filled with silver coins.

Then Morgan and his men steal the treasure chest and escape aboard their pirate ship. Bruno and his friends chase Morgan's ship with the ''Arctic Tern'', driving it all the way to Heybrook Bay, near Plymouth, England. Defeated, Morgan destroys his own ship, taking himself and the treasure down with it. Bruno thinks he sees Morgan transform into a large octopus before disappearing completely.

Over the next few centuries, Bruno worries that the great treasure is lost forever to the deep.

But by the 1960s, in the modern coastal city of Plymouth, a young doctor named Chris Edge arrives for a holiday. He feels the urge to enter an old pub. Coincidentally, a young naval officer named Steve Hunter also goes into the same pub. Both Chris and Steve see a barman at work. For some reason, they know his name is Adrian. At one table sits an old sailor. It's Bruno. Bruno greets them; he invites them to sail on his ship, the ''Arctic Tern'', to scuba-dive with him in the waters around Plymouth for the rest of their holiday. Steve, Chris and Adrian find themselves trusting him, and agree to his proposal.

After a week of diving, Steve, Chris, and Adrian discover a sunken 17th-century pirate's ship, standing upright on the sea floor, with a large treasure chest sitting on its deck. When they resurface and report this to Bruno, Bruno instructs his three friends to remain with the ''Arctic Tern''. Then he dons his scuba gear, plunges into the water, and swims toward the ship. A large octopus with fiery eyes guards the treasure chest on the deck. Bruno wrestles with the octopus, kills it, and touches the silver coins in the chest. Immediately, Morgan's pirate ship crumbles to dust. Then Bruno, the treasure chest, and the ''Arctic Tern'' vanish.

Chris, Steve, and Adrian no longer remember how they each got safely home after this, nor can they remember anything about Bruno, the ''Arctic Tern'', or the treasure. However, Adrian remains the barman of the old pub in Plymouth. On the darkest night of each winter, for reasons unknown, Adrian sets a table for thirteen meals. The next morning, those thirteen meals are always consumed, with a Spanish silver coin left sitting on top of the thirteenth plate. Adrian stores these coins in a stoneware jar. People who are weak, sick, or poor, may leave a note on the door of pub, pleading for help. When they do, a silver coin from the stoneware jar magically comes to them.

Jackie is a recovering alcoholic moving into Havenhurst, an old gothic apartment complex in New York City run by Eleanor Mudgett and her son Ezra, who serves as the building's maintenance man. Jackie is warned that she must remain sober while living there or she will be evicted.

Jackie begins looking for evidence about her friend, previous Havenhurst tenant Danielle, unaware that she was brutally murdered along with her addict boyfriend Jason after receiving an eviction notice. Jackie meets some of the building's residents, notably a young teen named Sarah, who lives with her foster parents Tammy, a waitress who works nights, and Wayne, an abusive alcoholic. She later hears a neighbor, Paula, being murdered because she returned to prostitution. Jackie reports the incident to a detective friend, Tim Crawford.

She discovers an incomplete map that Danielle created before her death. The map shows that the building is far larger than it appears, as it has several secret rooms. Sarah gives Jackie Danielle's camera, which contains film that Jackie develops. Sarah is later attacked by Wayne, who is abducted by Eleanor's other son Jed. Jed is a serial killer that has been using the secret rooms to hide his crimes. He is the one murdering those who have been served eviction notices. Tammy becomes one of Jed's victims. After discovering their apartment covered in blood, Jackie tries to show Tim the apartment as proof, only for it to have been cleaned prior to his arrival. She decides to start drinking in order to receive an eviction notice and discover the building's secrets.

Jackie and Sarah, who is now living with her, discover a secret passage in the laundry room that leads to a room containing records showing that Eleanor and her children are descendants of serial killer H. H. Holmes and have inherited his murderous disposition. They are discovered by the murderous family and chased throughout the building, unable to leave. Jackie calls Tim for help but Sarah is captured. She manages to rescue Sarah and help her escape the building but is captured herself and presumably murdered.

Tim arrives shortly after with several police officers but is unable to do anything as there is no visible evidence that the disappearances are sinister in nature. Eleanor convinces Sarah to join her family (with all that entails), and Sarah agrees.

Wrestlers Rick and Julia Knight raise their children, Saraya and Zak, to follow in their footsteps; as young adults, the siblings apply to join the WWE, and are evaluated by veteran trainer Hutch Morgan, who agrees to let them try out before a SmackDown taping at The O2 Arena, where they meet WWE legend Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Shortly before her tryout, Saraya adopts the stage name "Paige".

Morgan chooses Paige to train for the WWE, but not Zak, despite Paige's protests. Arriving at NXT in Florida, Paige has difficulty with the training, especially given that her fellow trainees are mostly models and cheerleaders who have no wrestling experience and thus make poor opponents. Paige also struggles with performing choreographed promos as they clash with her own natural instincts, and suffers from Morgan's constant belittlement of her mistakes. Morgan forces Zak to return home after making it clear he will never be signed to the WWE, leaving Paige with no one to stick up for her.

During her WWE debut at an NXT live event, Paige is heckled by the crowd and freezes, leaving the ring in tears. She tries bleaching her dark hair and gets a spray tan in a desperate attempt to fit in with her peers. After failing an obstacle course, Paige lashes out at the other trainees for gossiping about her when they weren't. A sympathetic Morgan then reveals to Paige the real reason he didn't let Zak sign up: the league would have forced him to work as a jobber, which would have ruined his health. Morgan implies that a similar experience forced him to give up on his own wrestling career.

Believing that professional wrestling isn't worth it and that she'd have a much happier life helping her parents train other wrestlers, Paige decides to quit the WWE and return to her hometown. She travels home for the Christmas break to inform her family of her decision. Angry that she is giving up on the dream that he failed to achieve, Zak attacks Paige during a wrestling match, then gets in a drunken bar fight. Paige changes her mind after Zak berates her for giving up, and she returns to Florida to rejoin the WWE. She reasserts her individuality by re-adopting her original hair color and skin tone, rapidly improves in training, and befriends and encourages many of her fellow trainees.

Morgan brings the trainees to WrestleMania XXX, where The Rock greets Paige and tells her she will make her Raw debut the following night against the current WWE Divas Champion, AJ Lee. Paige makes her Raw debut, where she again freezes, and takes a severe beating from Lee before finally turning the tables and beating the champion. Claiming Lee's title for herself, she proudly declares that "this is MY house now!" as her family and friends cheer her victory back home.

His four children – removed oldest son Connor (Ruck), power-hungry Kendall (Strong), irreverent Roman (Culkin), and politically savvy Shiv (Snook) – all with varying degrees of connection to the company, begin to prepare for a future without their father, and each begins vying for prominence within the company.

In the first season, in the aftermath of Logan suffering a stroke, Kendall attempts to take control of the company, first by attempting a vote of no confidence in his father's leadership, and when that fails, staging a hostile takeover. When Kendall's drunk driving kills a waiter at Shiv's wedding, Logan covers up the incident and blackmails Kendall into withdrawing his support for the takeover bid. Kendall spends the second season doing his father's bidding, as Logan leads Shiv to believe she will succeed him as CEO. When a history of sexual harassment and cover-ups at the company is revealed, Logan orders Kendall to take responsibility for the wrongdoing, but instead Kendall becomes a whistleblower, publicly blaming Logan. During the third season, Kendall attempts to wage a legal and public-opinion campaign against Logan's leadership while maintaining the family's ownership of the company; but his campaign loses momentum as he loses focus and ignores advice from his lawyers and PR advisors. The season ends with Logan selling the company, as his children unite against him for the first time but are unable to prevent the sale.

It started at Franny Keating’s christening party. Bert Cousins wasn't even invited, but looking for an excuse to get out of the house, away from his three noisy children and pregnant wife for a few hours one weekend, he followed up on another fellow’s invitation. He brought a bottle of gin and he took a kiss from Franny’s very beautiful mother that day. Thus began an affair that ended two marriages and led Bert to begin thinking up excuses to get out of the house away from his four children from southern California and his two stepchildren every day of their summer vacations in Virginia.

Bringing the children of two divorces together under one roof may be called a “blended family” but this family does not blend. There forms a curious commonwealth of neglected children. This is the story about how their lives were disrupted and how they intertwined and what really happened the day that one child died. Twenty six years after her christening, when law school dropout Franny embarks on an affair with a much older very famous novelist, she has no inkling that her childhood memories could, in time, be woven into a best-selling novel, titled “Commonwealth.” When the baby of the family, Albie Cousins, discovers his past in black and white, readers are struck by the theft of family secrets, raising questions about borders between fact and fiction. Over the course of five decades, while the Keating-Cousins children were all going their own ways, they were still a family, still bound by shared memories and ultimately real affection.

He explains that he was diagnosed with schizophrenia when he was young, and became increasingly troubled growing up. He eventually attempted to commit suicide, and was taken to Clockworks Psychiatric Hospital.

David's body eventually returned to him, and he went looking for Syd back at the hospital. He soon found himself being chased by two people, until he was captured by the government. Agents of the latter attempt to contain David and prevent him from using his powers against them, though he doesn't realize what he can do.

On the Fourth of July, twins Cheryl and Jason Blossom are rowing down Sweetwater River in the town of Riverdale when their boat capsizes. Cheryl is found on the banks, but tells the authorities that Jason is missing, presumably drowned. As the new school year approaches, Jason's disappearance weighs on the minds of the citizens of Riverdale, with the exception of Veronica Lodge, who has just moved to Riverdale from New York City with her mother Hermione after her father Hiram is arrested for embezzlement.

Veronica integrates herself into Riverdale High, becoming fast friends with fellow sophomores Betty Cooper and Archie Andrews. Archie is struggling to juggle his passions for music and football, as well as his dedication to his father's construction company, while Betty is navigating her romantic feelings for Archie, as well as the whims of her controlling mother, Alice. Veronica convinces Betty to try out for the cheerleading team, the River Vixens, which are captained by Cheryl. Cheryl uses the audition to bully Betty, but after Veronica stands up for her friend, both girls make the team.

As the authorities continue to investigate Jason's disappearance, Archie tells his music teacher, Miss Grundy, that they should report the gunshots that they heard while they were on the river banks. Miss Grundy refuses, saying that reporting what they know to the authorities would only reveal their illegal affair.

Archie, Betty, and Veronica attend the back-to-school dance together, and Veronica persuades Betty to admit her feelings to Archie. Archie, still grappling with his relationship with Miss Grundy, does not respond. The gang reconvenes at the Blossom mansion for a game of seven minutes in heaven, in which Archie and Veronica are paired. The two use the opportunity to ask questions about each other's lives before giving in to their physical attraction and kissing. When they emerge from the closet, Betty has vanished. Archie finds her in front of her house, and explains that while he does love her, he does not think he is (and will be) good enough for her since he views her as "so perfect". A heartbroken Betty tearfully retreats inside as Archie watches, also heartbroken.

Later that night, Kevin Keller and Moose Mason have come to the river to hook up, when Kevin discovers Jason's body, with a gunshot wound in his head. Archie's ex-best friend, Jughead Jones, begins to write a book detailing the events of the summer.

Frank Norris, his wife, and daughter, Vena, arrive at a dilapidated carnival, where they are hired as employees. They are shown around the amusement park by Mr. Blood, a manager who is unaware that the Norrises are actually covertly attempting to locate their missing son, Johnny, who worked at the carnival. The Norrises stay at the carnival in their RV. That night, one of the carnival's employees is decapitated while riding the shut-down rollercoaster in the park. Another employee who witnessed the decapitation is subsequently attacked by the carnival's janitor, Sticker, who impales him through the head. Several employees of the carnival—all of whom have a pallid grey skin color—bring the man's body into an underground chamber beneath the park, and feast on his body.

Meanwhile, Vena ventures into the park at night to meet with Kit, a young, handsome employee who operates the tunnel of love ride, and to whom Vena has taken a liking. En route, she is approached by Sonja, a cross-dressing male fortune teller who attempts to offer her a reading, but she declines. Kit confides in Vena that an entire family disappeared from the carnival, and that he is suspicious of its proprietors, who may be part of an underground cannibalistic cult. During the conversation, Sticker attacks them, and the two flee in separate directions. Vena comes across Bobo, a dwarf who warns her of impending danger.

Vena continues to wander through the park, stumbling through prop rooms, bizarre rides, and a movie theater where the various pallid, zombie-like employees watch a silent film with Malatesta, their silk-caped leader. On the ferris wheel, Vena sees Kit's corpse in one of the cars, which causes her to have a nervous breakdown. Meanwhile, Frank realizes that Vena has snuck out of the RV, and attempts to leave to search for her, but the two are cornered in the RV by the pallid cultists. Vena attempts to call police from a phone booth, but is subsequently chased by Sticker into a funhouse. Frank and his wife eventually flee the RV, and are pursued by a gang of the cultists through the park.

The following morning, Johnny—who has been deliberately kept from his family, unaware they were searching for him—notices his parents' RV on the grounds. Mr. Blood vaguely tells him his family is "at rest." Alarmed, Johnny goes searching for Vena. Mr. Blood apparently decides to help save Vena, who is being kept in the caverns beneath the carnival by Malatesta and his cannibal followers, whom Mr. Blood explains to Vena are his family. Instead of helping Vena, however, Mr. Blood lures her to a chamber where he begins to drain her of her blood.

The novel is set in Niagara Falls in the summer of 1889, and focuses on the lives of several characters whose numerous obsessions, “concentrated chiefly in the image of the whirlpool, draw them inexorably together.”

The story, bracketed by scenes of Robert Browning's last days in Venice, follows the lives of Patrick, a “chronically ill clerk and would-be poet"; David McDougal, an Americaphobe military historian; his eccentric wife, Fleda, who “spends her days in the woods, reading Browning's poetry”, and Maude, the widow of the undertaker with a mute four-year-old son.

Against the backdrop of a river, its whirlpool and the forest, the poet Patrick fantasizes of Fleda rather than accepting her offer of a real relationship. Fleda goes to live in the woods, rejecting social conventions of the time, while Maude renews contact with her mute son, who begins in his own way to speak.

Now Gia tries to put her past behind focusing on her ambitions. Gia's goals are interrupted when she discovers, through her boyfriend Joe, an age-progressed photo of a missing child, who she resembles. Her friend Debbie, a single mother going through her own financial troubles, is concerned that Gia is repeating unhealthy habits by being with her boyfriend Joe, who is nearly twice Gia's age.

Gia and Joe drive to the house of Henry Whittle, the man they believe may be Gia's father. When Gia sees the room of Henry's daughter she feels a connection, however when she looks at old photos she sees a discrepancy that makes her believe she is not the missing child.

The protagonist of this story, Aichi Sendou, is a timid boy in his third year of middle school. He had been living his life looking backward rather than forward, trying not to stand out. However, he had one thing that kept him going: Blaster Blade, a card from a card game that was given to him when he was little. That card is the reason why he begins to engage in Card Fights, something that changes his life drastically.

The name of the card game is "Vanguard." The game takes place in a different planet called "Cray," and due to a never before seen play system, it becomes popular throughout the world.

Aichi, immediately attracted by Vanguard, meets friends such as Misaki Tokura and Kamui Katsuragi, along with other rivals. Through friendly rivalry with them, Aichi begins to enjoy a fulfilling life. Aichi, however, has a goal: to once again battle with a Vanguard Fighter by the name of Toshiki Kai. Kai is an aloof and cold-hearted high school student who has outstanding abilities in the world of Vanguard. He is also the reason why Aichi started playing the game. For him, Toshiki is the person who saved him from his boring life and introduced him to Vanguard. In order to get better at Vanguard, Aichi puts his soul into it every day. He wishes that someday, he'll be able to battle Toshiki and have him recognize his worth.

He soon learns about a power called PSY Qualia, and another boy called Ren Suzugamori, who also has the same power.

The original season of ''Cardfight!! Vanguard'' centers on main character Aichi Sendou's introduction to the titular card game. Over time, he makes new friends, competes in the National Championships, and confronts a mysterious power called Psyqualia .

Set 3 years later after the events of Legion Mate, the story follows Chrono Shindou, an apathetic teenager who finds a Vanguard deck and a map in his school locker one day. Following the map, he is led to Card Capital 2, a card shop where he meets Kamui Katsuragi who works part-time there. After being taught how to play Vanguard and winning his first fight against Kamui, Chrono begins his venture in the world of Vanguard. Chrono finds Vanguard enjoyable, so he decides to return to Card Capital 2, where he takes up a quest and becomes a Grade 1 fighter. Then, he meets and fights Kouji Ibuki, who reveals that Chrono is and always has been completely alone. As a result, Ibuki crushes Chrono with no difficulty and refuses to even tell Chrono his name until Chrono becomes stronger. Over the next few days, Chrono meets and Shion Kiba and Tokoha Anjou (although his first encounter with both of them was not so pleasent but they slowly become very good friends). Chrono also makes an acquaintance of Mamoru Anjou, the Kagero clan leader, and Jaime Alcaraz, the Spanish ace of the European League.

FIVA is holding a national tournament, and the only one not excited is Tokoha. As she is the younger sister of Mamoru, people expect her to follow her brother's footsteps. But she wants to carve her own path and is tired of being forced to live up to her brother's legacy. Meanwhile, Chrono is trying to get enough points by doing quests so he can get to Grade 3 in order to enter the tournament. In the end Tokoha decides to enter the tournament as well. Chrono, Shion, and Tokoha try to find team mates for entering the tournament. One day Kamui calls the three of them in Card Capital 2 and informs them that he has registered the three of them as a team for the tournament (he actually didn't but he tricked them). Chrono, Shion and Tokoha get irritated and angry at this news.

Kamui tests their teamwork through a variety of exercises, but the trio exhibits no sign of team harmony whatsoever. Then, Kamui has the three play against Team Trinity Dragon in a special cardfight in which each team member will switch with another after each turn. Throughout the fight, Chrono, Tokoha, and Shion constantly argue with each other about their playing methods. With excellent synergy, Trinity Dragon wins, leaving Kamui to believe that there is no hope for Chrono's team. Desperate to prove Kamui wrong (although he was really faking it), Chrono, Tokoha, and Shion become determined to make their unnamed team successful. They later name their team '''''Team TRY3''''' and enter the National Tournament together.

At the regional qualifier, Team TRY3 fights Team Demise. They ultimately turn out to be a very powerful team. Chrono wins against the first fighter of Team Demise (Sugiru Kariya). However, Shion and Tokoha ultimately lose in their respective cardfights. In the aftermath of their defeat Chrono's aunt discovers Chrono's new hobby and reveals the truth behind his father, who disappeared 10 years ago because of Vanguard. Team TRY3 visits the United Sanctuary branch, seeking a rematch with Team Demise. They find that the United Sanctuary branch is turning cardfighters into people obsessed with winning by brain washing them and by forcing them to think that "weakness is a crime". TRY3 is then challenged by the Branch Manager himself. Unbeknownst to Team TRY3, the Branch Manager is doing this to obtain a special unit that was used against him in a cardfight years ago.

During the battle at the United Sanctuary Branch, Chrono was given a blank card called a Depend Card by Kamui. After the battle at the United Sanctuary Chrono cardfights Kouji Ibuki and wins, the Depend Card transforms into a new unit, Chrono Dran, Kouji then reveals that there are 11 more Depend Cards, and someone is out to get all of them.

A couple months have passed since the events of G. Chrono is unsure about what he wants to do with his life, while Shion plans on taking over his family’s company and Tokoha seems to have an idea about what she wants to do. With the announcement of the G Quest, Team TRY3 plan on becoming Generation masters. However, they must solve a mystery, which involves the loss of Shion’s family company, and finding how a man named Ryuzu Myojin plans on using the G Quest to awaken the remaining Depend cards. Team TRY3 will have to face new challenges from friends both new and old, while Chrono tries to awaken the three Depend Cards he has. TRY3 must push their Vanguard skills to the next level, not only to reach their future, but also to save both Earth and Planet Cray. Plan G has officially begun, and there’s no going back.

The next day, Homer tells his family about the hot dog stand. Grampa tells him that when Homer was a boy, he used to take him there all the time. When he and Mona argued with each other, they went to a marriage counselor, which was next to the hot dog stand. They left Homer there and the guy who worked there gave him hot dogs, which made Homer start eating away his misery. Back in the present, Patty and Selma have lost all their money in a bet at the DMV award show as well as their jobs by spending $100,000 on a $43 budget, so they are going to live with the Simpsons for a while. Homer returns to the hot dog stand and asks the owner if he remembers him, which he claims he does not, saddening Homer. Meanwhile, Springfield Elementary has a radio show, run by the 4th graders and Lisa is included. Everyone else on the show is acting ridiculous and Lisa is the only normal one.

Eventually, Homer's attendance at the hot dog stand brings popularity to the stand, meaning that the Krusty Burger is losing customers. Lisa does an interview at the detention and the radio station gets shut down by Principal Skinner. Lisa feels bad about it, so Homer brings her to the hot dog store to cheer her up. When they get there, Homer learns the stand has been shut down by the health department, due to Krusty ratting them out. Krusty then buys out the stand. Homer protests this and he ties the restaurant stand chain to his car and drives off, taking the hot dog store with him. Homer ends up on the news. When the fat people hear about this, they side with Homer and help him achieve his goal, when Krusty tells the other restaurant mascots about it, an army of mascots, led by Colonel Sanders goes against them. On their drive, the stand, with Homer in it, goes off a bridge and is dangling from the chain. The owner of the stand comes back to Homer and saves him, revealing that he does remember Homer after all. He tells him that he does not need the stand, and that the only reason why he thought it was so sacred is because it helped get him through some tough family times, not because of the content of the restaurant. Homer lets the stand fall to the ground, releasing the intoxicating aroma of the hot dogs into the air. Bart and Marge come to collect Homer, telling him he has become an overnight celebrity for his efforts to save the stand, and Chief Wiggum lets him leave instead of arresting him.

True crime podcasters Aaron Korey and Dana Haines visit the hospital and, during their encounter, Aaron displays the mask that Michael wore in 1978 to him, to no effect. The following day, as he is being transferred, the bus crashes and patients began to wander into the road. The accident causes a father and son to stop to see what is going on.

Meanwhile, as Allyson and Oscar walk home from the party, Michael kills Oscar, but Hawkins and Sartain arrive just in time to rescue Allyson. Deputy Hawkins then tries to kill Michael, but Dr. Sartain – who has become obsessed with Michael's enigmatic motivations – attacks and leaves Hawkins for dead. It is revealed that he orchestrated Michael's escape to study him "in the wild." Dr. Sartain then heads towards Laurie's home with an unconscious Michael and Allyson locked in the backseat together. Michael wakes up and kills Sartain while Allyson flees from the scene. Michael then ambushes and kills two police officers that are outside Laurie's home.

When Laurie's son-in-law Ray goes outside to greet who he believes are the two officers, to ask if they had located Allyson, Michael strangles him to death. Laurie manages to get Karen to safety before she engages in a showdown with Michael. Laurie severely injures Michael, including shooting off some of his fingers, but he stabs her in the abdomen and pushes her over a balcony. When Michael goes to check Laurie's body, he finds it missing, reminiscent of their first encounter decades ago. Karen pretends to break down in tears and calls out for her mother, luring Michael and allowing her to shoot him in the jaw. Laurie suddenly reappears and attacks Michael, trapping him inside the safe room with Karen and Allyson's help. The trio sets the house ablaze, and Laurie says goodbye to Michael before she begins to faint and lets her daughter and granddaughter quickly hitchhike a passerby vehicle to take her to the hospital.

De Sardet, a noble of the Merchant Congregation, prepares to travel to the newly-settled island of Teer Fradee to serve as Legate to Prince Constantin d'Orsay, De Sardet's cousin and the newly-appointed governor of New Serene, the Congregation's capital on the island. The Congregation hopes that the exotic environment of Teer Fradee will yield a cure for the malichor, a deadly plague spreading on the continent.

The group arrives on Teer Fradee and De Sardet is quickly dispatched to establish diplomatic relations with the island natives and two neighboring countries with a presence on the island. De Sardet gains several new allies and learns of the ''doneigada'', native islanders with a supernatural bond to the earth that grants them mystical abilities. De Sardet's investigations into the malichor reveal that the natives worship a being known as "''en on mil frichtimen''" which has a connection to the island. De Sardet believes ''en on mil frichtimen'' to be real, and capable of curing the malichor with its power, and begins seeking a way to speak with it.

Constantin's health begins to decline and he soon learns he is infected with the malichor. After thwarting an attempted coup by the Congregation's mercenary guards, De Sardet contacts a native healer named Catasach to relieve Constantin's pain while the search for a cure continues. De Sardet learns that ''en on mil frichtimen'''s sanctuary can only be opened by the high king of the natives, Vinbarr, who has been missing for months. Upon returning to New Serene, De Sardet learns that Catasach and Constantin are missing. De Sardet finds Catasach dead and learns that Constantin has been taken by Vinbarr into the mountains. De Sardet tracks Vinbarr to his lair and kills him before bringing Constantin back to New Serene.

Three days later, Constantin's sickness is cured, but his physical appearance has changed, becoming similar to that of the natives. He reveals that Catasach took him to perform a ritual to turn him into a ''doneigad'', making him resistant to the malichor. With Vinbarr dead, De Sardet intervenes in the native's election of the new high king and gets the winning candidate to promise entry into ''en on mil frichtimen'''s sanctuary. De Sardet is allowed to enter and speaks to the being, who reveals that the malichor is not a disease, but a poison generated by the continent in response to its exploitation by its people. It promises to help cure the malichor, but warns that Constantin's actions are weakening it.

Confused and horrified by the warning, De Sardet discovers that Constantin has become addicted to the power of the ''doneigad'', and is performing more rituals to steal more of the island's power from ''en on mil frichtimen'', intending to destroy both the natives and the settlers and rule the island alone. De Sardet confronts Constantin alone in the sanctuary, and is given the choice to either kill him and leave the island's fate in the hands of the factions, or join him in conquering the island.

If the player chooses to kill Constantin, the ending that follows will vary depending on the elected High King and the player's relationship with their companions and the various factions on Teer Fradee.

If the player chooses to join Constantin, the two cousins steal ''en on mil frichtimen'' power and become godlike beings, unleashing a reign of terror upon the world.

Clary confesses to Emma Carstairs that she has been dreaming about her death. The Shadowhunters investigate Malcolm Fade's house and find out that he had been consorting with the Unseelie King. When they return, the Institute has been taken over by Centurions, graduates from the Scholomanche, led by Zara Dearborn, who reveals that she is engaged to Diego Rosales. This upsets Cristina, since she has just reconciled with him. Meanwhile, Kit, having learned that he is a Shadowhunter named Christopher Herondale, tries to leave the Institute several times, but is dissuaded by Jace and Ty. He is, however, barred from visiting the local Shadow Market because of his status. Clary and Jace subsequently leave for Faerie.

Emma, Julian, and Mark are visited by Gwyn of the Wild Hunt, who pleads with Mark to save Kieran. Kieran had killed the Unseelie King's right-hand man, Iarlath, and is about to be executed. The trio and Cristina enter Faerie, where they navigate through its deceptive environment as they are confronted by their desires: Emma's and Julian's forbidden love and Cristina's and Mark's newfound love for each other, which binds the latter with a curse.

The Institute is subsequently attacked by a resurrected Malcolm Fade, still demanding a Blackthorn sacrifice. Arthur sacrifices himself while Diana portals herself and everyone else to the London Institute. Malcolm kills Arthur to bring back his lover, Annabel Blackthorn, who immediately kills him before walking away with the Black Volume.

The entire event is watched by Julian. The Seelie Queen offers Julian a way to break his parabatai bond with Emma in exchange for retrieving the Black Volume, then asks the others for help to overthrow the Unseelie King. She chooses Kieran to become ambassador between the Shadowhunters and faeries. Kieran in turn pledges fealty to Cristina. To keep him contented, Mark and Emma agree to stop pretending to be in a relationship with each other. The group then ride with the Wild Hunt towards the London Institute, where they reunite with the others.

After getting his first rune, Kit meets the ghost of Jessamine Lovelace and obtains information about Malcolm's former home in England, located in Polperro. Heading there, Emma and Julian learn the full story of Malcolm and Annabel's past: the two were captured when they attempted to leave with the Black Volume, with Annabel being executed after she was led to believe that Malcolm abandoned her. Annabel briefly visits Julian but refuses to hand over the Black Volume. From a faerie, Julian and Emma learn about the church where Annabel was resurrected in Talland. However, it turns out to be a trap and the two have no choice but to burn the church down using a heightened form of their parabatai bond.

Back at London, Kit, Ty, and Livvy visit the former Blackthorn Manor and find a crystal containing Annabel's memories. Afterwards, they visit the local Shadow Market, meeting a warlock named Shade, who helps them extract the memories. When demons attack them, Magnus Bane arrives to help them return to the Institute. Kit and Ty discover a hidden passage to the Cornwall Institute and leave behind a letter for Annabel. Cristina gets close with Kieran and follows him when he visits his brother, Adaon, to convince him to take over the Unseelie throne upon their father's death. However, they are ambushed by another brother, Erec. Kieran kills Erec, but not before the latter tells him that their father has sent the Riders of Mannan to hunt the group.

Dru is secretly visited by Diego's brother, Jaime, and lets him see Cristina. He tells her that Zara is engaged to Diego so she can take the Rosales family heirloom, the Eternidad, which is currently in Jaime's possession. Dru touches the Eternidad and is briefly transported to Faerie, where she meets a boy named Ash. When Cristina and Kieran try to contact Adaon again, they are linked to the Unseelie King, who tries to manipulate Kieran by returning his memories. Kieran is upset, but is convinced by Cristina to forgive Mark.

Meanwhile, Diana heads to Idris to talk with Consul Penhallow. She begins dating Gwyn, confessing that she is transgender, which is the reason why she refuses Penhallow's offer to lead the L.A. Institute, as she does not want to be outed. The two save Kit, Ty, and Livvy when they are attacked by the Riders, who also attack Emma and Julian until the former manages to kill one of them. Diana discovers that patches of dying lands have appeared in Idris and learns that they are not an isolated incident. Magnus brings Emma and Julian back to the London Institute. There, the Riders once again attack but are defeated by Annabel, who received Ty's message and came to their aid. She agrees to testify at the Clave and give Julian the Black Volume, which he takes a copy with his phone, if she is protected by Magnus and given the Blackthorn Manor. Magnus removes Cristina's and Mark's curse and also advises Julian to talk to the Inquisitor, Robert Lightwood, so Emma and Julian can voluntarily exile and legally have a relationship.

Emma, Cristina, and the Blackthorns set towards Idris, while Diego takes Kieran to the Scholomanche for his safety. The Blackthorns reunite with their eldest sister, Helen, now married to the Consul's daughter, Aline. When it is Annabel's turn to be interrogated, Magnus suddenly falls ill, rendering him unable to protect her. She is repeatedly insulted and experiences flashbacks of her previous interrogation. Freaking out, she steals the Mortal Sword and kills Robert with it before engaging in a frenzied murder among the Clave. Confronting her, Emma surprisingly manages to destroy the Mortal Sword with her own sword, Cortana. However, Annabel uses the shards to kill Livvy. As Julian is left to cradle Livvy, Emma tries to follow Annabel but fails, only glimpsing her taking off with the Unseelie King before disappearing to parts unknown.

A psychiatrist, Charles (Chris Bauer), has his career and life become derailed after he refuses to testify on behalf of a former patient who had become clinically violent and unstable, resulting in the deaths of multiple people following a tragic breakdown of his mental complications. The patient then claims that Charles will not testify in court or to the police because the patient is openly part of the LGBT community. Further, the patient claims that Charles has recently gone through a religious conversion in his own personal identity which has resulted in a fully prejudiced reassessment of the gay community as a whole. Charles claims that the basis of these accusations are false and due to a misunderstanding. The misunderstanding resulted from an innocent mistyping of the title of an article that Charles wrote years ago about homosexuality where the title was "Homosexuality as an Adaptation," though the published version was released by the editor as the mistyped "Homosexuality as an Aberration." The resulting recriminations put Charles's entire career at risk and threaten to end his practice permanently.

''Dusk'' takes place in and around the fictitious rural town of Dusk, Pennsylvania. A huge network of "Lovecraftian ruins" is discovered underneath a section of farmland, which attracts the attention of the government. Military personnel and scientists establish research labs and factories in the town in an attempt to harness the magic of the ruins. Much of the research team soon fall victim to a series of demonic possessions and industrial disasters, which force the remnants of the team out of the town. A large perimeter wall is built around the town, sealing it off from the outside world. The player takes the role of a nameless treasure hunter ("DuskDude" or "The Intruder"), who has heard rumors that hidden riches exist within the sealed town. The treasure hunter is apprehended by the town's denizens, brought to a secluded farmhouse, and impaled onto a meathook.

''The Foothills'', the first episode, is largely set in the country outskirts around Dusk's perimeter wall. After the protagonist escapes from the farmhouse, he travels across a variety of rural environments such as swamps, barnyards, cornfields, and sawmills. After breaching the perimeter wall and entering the town, the protagonist uncovers an underground passageway, which ultimately leads him to an industrial zone on the outskirts of the city.

In the second episode, ''The Facilities'', the player must fight through the remnants of the possessed military and science personnel, who guard an array of occult machines within the industrial zone. In the penultimate level of the episode, it is revealed that the machines extract power from the minced remains of slaughtered humans. Deep in the ruins of the industrial complex, the protagonist finds an otherworldly portal, which he activates and walks through.

In the third and final episode, ''The Nameless City'', the protagonist finds himself in an alternate reality. After passing through a cathedral, he travels through various locations, with him being forced into a trial that takes place within a corrupted version of his own memories. In the end, the protagonist confronts and defeats the cult's leader, named Jakob, who in turn is killed by his followers. The protagonist is then confronted by the godlike being responsible for the events taking place in the town, referred to as Nyarlathotep, and defeats it. However, before the protagonist is able to deal the killing blow, Nyarlathotep deems him to be "worthy" and gives him an unknown power, presumably corrupting him in the process and taking Jakob's place as leader of the cult. Nyarlathotep then places the protagonist in a kind of stasis "until [Nyarlathotep] has need of [him] again".

On an island off the west coast of Great Britain, a group of survivors of World War Three struggle to continue living. Hugh Packenham foresaw the oncoming conflict and fled to the island. His only neighbours are fisherman Shaun O'Donnell and his wife Barbara. Then other survivors seek refuge, including an African American sailor, and conflicts develop.

The story takes place within the Fouan family. The elderly father Fouan (Armand Bour) decides to share his property between his children, dependent on them to house him, feed him and give him two hundred francs a year each. They do not do their job very well, especially his son, Buteau (Jean Hervé), who is gradually dispossessing Fouan of his meager fortune.

Buteau has two cousins, the Mouche sisters. He has a child by the first, Lise (Jeanne Briey), whom he married when she became a rich heiress.

Buteau and Lise confront her sister, Françoise (Germaine Rouer), in a field. Lise pushes her sister onto a scythe, severely wounding her, and she and Buteau abandon her to her fate. Francoise is taken to a house, but dies from the injury.

Father Fouan is left to wander through rain and snow, with nowhere to live.

Dr. Jane Mathis (Vinessa Shaw) is a psychiatrist and an expert at confrontational therapy. Two years prior, she had a patient, Nora Green, who attacked her and attempted suicide in her office. As a result, Dr. Mathis developed PTSD and sleep paralysis, which led her to seek help from Dr. Terry Drummond. She has also begun to date a police officer named Miles. Against Dr. Terry's advice, she continues her practice as a psychiatrist, albeit not prescribing medication. She reluctantly agrees to see a new patient, Alex, whose face was disfigured from a car accident. One night, he is seen sleepwalking inside her house, prompting Jane to call the police. Alex persuades her to continue their sessions, appealing to her expertise and understanding.

In flashbacks, it is revealed that Nora began seeing Jane because she was being abused by her father. After confronting him, Nora attacked Jane, who received severe stab wounds to her arms. In present-day, Jane visits the institution where Nora was hospitalized and is informed that Nora was discharged due to lack of money after her father's death. She sees footage of Nora's sessions at the institution, which reveals Nora's violent rage anytime she speaks about her father. Jane installs security cameras around her home, and reveals to Alex her previous failure with Nora, chalking it up to relying too heavily on medication. Alex recalls more of his accident; after helping pull a couple from their totaled car, he noticed his daughter wandered into the path of an oncoming truck. Both were struck, but only his daughter was killed.

Strange things continue to occur in Jane's house, such as dirty footprints and bloody photographs. Miles notices that someone has tampered with the security system, as whole hours of footage are missing. Jane refuses to press charges against Nora for fear that she will be sent back to the institution and drugged. She later steals prescriptions from Dr. Terry, having run out of her own medication. Alex shows up at her house even though Jane had canceled all her patients and she explains that there needs to be boundaries between doctor and patient. In another bout of sleep paralysis, Jane relives the horror of Nora's attack two years ago. When she awakes disoriented, Nora appears and attacks Jane. In self defense, Jane stabs Nora in the head, killing her.

Jane is institutionalised, enduring confusion and heavy sedation. The resident psychiatrist shows her security footage from her home, which reveal that during a drug-induced hysteria, she attacked and killed Miles. She is to be held in the institution until her trial. Days pass and one night, Jane sees Nora hanging from the tree outside. Her friend Clara visits but when she leaves, she is tasered by Alex. The psychiatrist condescendingly explains to Jane that Nora had said she killed her father but her father was alive and was paying her hospital bills. He says Nora killed herself by hanging after she left the hospital and accuses Jane of driving Nora to insanity. Jane realizes Nora's father is Alex and breaks out of the institution. In the same way as Clara, she is tasered.

She wakes up in her home and sees Clara dead. Alex enters and explains that he wanted to punish her for trying to help Nora, his daughter. Nora had attacked him in self defense, which led to his disfigured face, and he staged the car accident to explain his injuries and make it onto the donor list for a skin graft. He also stopped paying Nora's bills to get her out, and made her break into Jane's house and psychologically torment her. The night of the murder, Alex had broken in and drugged Jane, which led her to accidentally kill Miles.

Jane finds Dr. Terry in a pool of blood. While attempting to escape through the window, she is pulled back by Alex. She grabs at his face and pulls off the grafted skin as she falls. She returns to the house and sees Alex sitting on the couch, faceless and presumably dead.

Fourteen years later in 2009, during Isaiah's wedding reception, Isaiah's mother Joan discovers Isaiah about to perform fellatio on a distressed Sidney. While Joan is in the shower, Sidney leaves a typed memoir under her pillow, ''Cocoon Man: Confessions by Sidney Johnson'', which chronicles the years of sexual abuse he has endured at the hands of their son. Isaiah discovers the memoir before Joan can see it. He confronts Sidney, tells him he will burn the memoir and warns him not to print more copies.

While Sidney is taking a bath, Isaiah breaks down the locked door and rapes him, telling him to "put that in your book" afterwards. Joan hears the struggle, but raises the volume of the television. The next day, Sidney removes a secret copy of ''Cocoon Man'' from underneath the floorboards and attempts to leave the house with it, leading to another confrontation with Isaiah which culminates in Sidney running into the street where he is struck and killed by a van.

After Sidney's funeral, Joan recalls that on Isaiah's prom night in 2000, Sidney locked himself in the bathroom and cried for hours, and asks him why. Their argument escalates into a physical fight. After Isaiah throws Joan across the room, Joan stabs him with a knife. Enraged, Isaiah attempts to force his mother into a lit fireplace, only for Joan, through tears, to stab Isaiah to death with a fire iron. She throws ''Cocoon Man'' into the fire, continuing to sob.

USSR, Moscow in the 1980s. A unique violin made by Antonio Stradivari is stolen from the apartment of the famous violinist Lev Osipovich Polyakov. Attorney Stanislav Tikhonov and police lieutenant Elena Nechayeva proceed to investigate the case.

First, suspicions fall on Obolnikov, neighbor of the Polyakov family. But it turns out that although Obolnikov did secretly enter the apartment of the violinist he was not involved in the theft. Then Pavel Ikonnikov becomes the suspect – a former violinist who was once well acquainted with Polyakov. A motive is evident: envy of the more fortunate and successful colleague could push Ikonnikov toward crime. Some information which includes an anonymous letter indicates that Ikonnikov could be involved in the theft. But also in this case Tikhonov and Nechayeva are wrong. Moreover, Ikonnikov, deeply offended with the unfounded suspicions in his address, commits suicide. As farewell, Ikonnikov wrote a letter to Tikhonov, in which he states that the person who slandered him is apparently a person who is very close to Ikonnikov.

An unexpected breakthrough in this complicated case is the appearance of the stolen cassette player belonging to Polyakov. Clinging to this evidence, the investigation manages to come upon the "master thief" Melnik, who helped criminals open the door to the violinists apartment. There were two criminals - "Cross" and "Boss" but they can not be found.

A random occurrence helps Tikhonov. During confrontation with arrested Melnik, piano tuner Gregory Belash suddenly gives false testimony that Melnik and Ikonnikov met with each other after the violin was stolen. Tikhonov for the first time begins to suspect Belash whom he previously liked. Attorney examines in detail Belash's alibi on the day of the theft and discovers that Belash is one of the criminals, the very same "Boss". Belash is arrested, but the most dangerous criminal "Cross" is still at large. He is armed and dangerous and most importantly - the Stradivarius violin is in his hands. It would seem that to catch this cunning and cautious offender is impossible, but unexpected "help" to the investigation is offered by an empty jar of pickled mushrooms. Tikhonov and Nechayeva apprehend "Cross" and Elena is seriously injured. And in the very last moment customs delay departure of a plane from the USSR on which a foreigner is boarded who has bought the Stradivarius from "Cross", trying to take the priceless musical instrument abroad.

At the same time a second story-line unfolds in the film about the great violin maker Antonio Stradivari.

Italy, Cremona, end of the - 17th - start of the 18th century. The famous violin maker Nicola Amati takes a simple street boy Antonio Stradivari as a student. Stradivarius is a diligent student and some time later Antonio becomes superior to his old teacher when he creates an incomparable varnish which allows to make unique-sounding musical instruments. Stradivarius leaves Amati, marries, one after the other four sons are born, but nobody buys Stradivarius' instruments, Amati is for the most famous violin maker in Europe, and simply no one knows of Stradivarius.

But soon Fortuna finally smiles upon the despairing Stradivarius; his instruments are finally becoming more popular. Antonio becomes rich, he and his family begin to live in luxury, but this does not stop Stradivarius for even a moment. Antonio continues to search for more and more sophisticated ways of processing wood, varnish manufacture, so that his violins sound better and better. But Stradivarius is unhappy because circumstances concerning his family unfold in a woeful way. His beloved wife dies, eldest son becomes a merchant-slaver, middle son - a Jesuit monk, and two younger sons do not have either the talent nor the desire to learn the violin business.

Soon Stradivarius is offered with a unique chance to pass on his knowledge and skill onto worthy hands as to him comes a young man named Giuseppe Guarneri and asks the great master to take him as a disciple. Alas, Stradivarius refuses future genius, and Guarneri is forced to literally sell himself into slavery to the Jesuits. For food and accommodation Giuseppe is obliged for 15 years to give all the musical instruments he made. As the years go by, one day on the street Stradivarius hears the sound of Guarneri's violin. Tears appear in the old master's eyes as he realizes that someone has created a violin that sounds better than his musical instruments...

Seeking inspiration for her school art class, John's daughter Charlotte accidentally uncovers these objects and journals, latching on to Mo's wild, surreal creativity and bizarre scientific theories with childlike obsession and wonder. Charlotte bombards John (who confesses he cannot remember Mo and knows nothing about her mysterious objects) with questions: Who was Mo? How did she die? Did she go insane? Why did she draw such weird pictures?

As Mo's odd possessions nestle their way into Charlotte's everyday existence, she becomes more challenging and rebellious. Forced to embark upon her own research, Charlotte eventually questions whether Mo really was the 'distant relative' her father claims. As John and Charlotte grow apart, both are forced to consider a new reality: that Mo may be more familiar to John than he admits.

''Blood-C: The Last Dark'', which follows the events of ''Blood-C'', is set in a version of Earth where humans are preyed upon by monsters called Elder Bairns; to keep humans safe, the Elder Bairns honor a covenant dubbed Shrovetide, a contract between humans and Elder Bairns that allows Elder Bairns to feed on humans for a limited period of time. During the events of ''Blood-C'', Saya Kisaragi fights Elder Bairns attacking her village. It is eventually revealed that Saya is an Elder Bairn barred from drinking human blood by an oath—captured by Fumito Nanahara, head of the organization that supervises Shrovetide, she entered a wager in which she would subject herself to an experiment, with her prize being the reneging of her oath. The experiment fails, and everyone involved is massacred aside from Fumito, his ally Yūka Amino, and Saya herself. Betrayed by Fumito, Saya swears vengeance against him. By the events of ''The Last Dark'', Fumito—operating through his covert group Tower and its puppet corporation Seventh Heaven—has gained control of Tokyo's government and implemented the Youth Ordinance Bill, a law which enforces curfews for minors and regulates the use of the internet.

Six months later in Tokyo, Saya saves a girl named Mana Hīragi from a berserk humanoid Elder Bairn. Mana and Saya are rescued by Mana's comrades in SIRRUT, a covert group resisting Fumito's group who heard about Saya's past through Itsuki Tomofusa, a spy who died following the experiment. The group is led by Fumito's relative Kuroto Mogari, whose family was killed so Fumito could have control over the Shrovetide. Kuroto offers Saya SIRRUT's aid finding Fumito in exchange for her help. Hunted by Tower, and after saving Mana from Youth Ordinance Bill enforcers, Saya agrees to help. Saya and Mana infiltrate a private academy funded by Fumito when he is scheduled to give a lecture. When Saya attacks, it is revealed to be a trap baited with a false version of Fumito, and she must fight off an Elder Bairn before they can escape. In the aftermath, Mana reveals that her father disappeared after she helped him with his research into Tower. Regaining her confidence as a hacker, Mana locates Tower's main base, allowing Saya to infiltrate the base.

Facing the task force unit, she fights the head of Tower's security forces Kutō, killing him after he uses a vial of Saya's blood to transform into an Elder Bairn hybrid. Finding Fumito in the building's basement, she also finds Kuroto with him, before succumbing to a drug given by Kuroto. Fumito and Kuroto—whose family has the power to control Elder Bairns—were working together, with each killing the others' families to take control of Tower and Seventh Heaven. Saya also learns that the Elder Bairn who tried to kill Mana was Mana's father. When Kuroto attempts to kill him to control Shrovetide, Fumito stabs him with a phial of Saya's blood, transforming Kuroto into an Elder Bairn seed.

Fumito reveals his intent to dissolve Shrovetide using Saya's blood as the ratio of humans to Elder Bairns has shifted drastically due to the Elder Bairn seemingly dying out. As Saya recovers from the drug, Fumito fuses with the seed, which hatches into a giant Elder Bairn which Saya slays. A weakened Fumito reveals that he transformed himself into an Elder Bairn hybrid to become closer to Saya and free her from her oath not to feed on humans. Accepting that he has lost their wager, he impales himself on Saya's sword. Saddened at being left alone again, Saya does not return to SIRRUT, instead opting to disappear. In the aftermath, Yūka becomes Tokyo's governor and repeals the Youth Ordinance Bill, the members of SIRRUT return to a normal life, and Mana begins searching for Saya.

Two friends, Charles and Wyndham, murder someone for fun.

The film tells the story of a man whose life was stolen when he was accused of the murder of a taxi driver which he did not commit, and had to confess to the crime as he was abused during police interrogation. 10 years later he seeks help from a lawyer who had financial debts to clear his name.

"who had five wives who all died mysteriously" - We can come up with a better verb than "had." Changed the part to "whose five wives all died mysteriously." Does that work better? GamerPro64 20:11, 18 February 2017 (UTC) "Hoping to find an inspiration for her next novel, Adrienne begins having nightmares immediately upon moving into her new home" - As written, this sentence is describing how Adrienne deliberately induced nightmares to find inspiration for her next book. Changed "begins" to "starts". GamerPro64 20:11, 18 February 2017 (UTC) The problem was that the introductory clause is linked to the action verb of the sentence, so it reads as "because she wanted inspiration for her novel, she decides to induce nightmares." I took the liberty of rewriting this myself to avoid this connection. "culminating in a controversial scene in which he rapes Adrienne" - I don't think culminating works here, as the culmination of his bad behavior is really when he starts killing everybody. Changed "culminating" to "resulting". GamerPro64 20:11, 18 February 2017 (UTC) *"Meanwhile, Harriet, fearing for her safety, decides to leave with Cyrus as Don becomes more abusive and erratic" - Meanwhile is not the proper transition here, as it denotes something happening at the same time as the events of the previous paragraph when it is actually something that happens later. Removed "Meanwhile". GamerPro64 20:11, 18 February 2017 (UTC)

The Interdependency is a thousand-year-old human empire of 48 star systems connected by the Flow, a network of "streams" allowing faster-than-light travel. Each stream is one way and has an entry point and an exit point. There is no faster-than-light communication faster than the Flow, and interstellar trips are not instantaneous—ships carrying mail or passengers from Hub, the capital of the empire and the system with the most Flow connections, arrive at End, the most distant, nine months later—but the network permits life-sustaining intersystem trade. As a natural phenomenon, the Flow is poorly understood; Earth disconnected from the network thousands of years ago, and civilization on another system collapsed more recently when its pathway suddenly closed.

Family-owned megacorporations control all interstellar trade in the Interdependency's mercantile economy; one, House Wu, is the royal family. The trading houses are incredibly wealthy from government-sanctioned monopolies and by collecting tolls at "shoals", entrances and exits to Flow pathways. The state religion, with the Emperox as titular head, celebrates the Interdependency as a divinely sanctioned society.

Count Claremont, a physicist on End, calculates after decades of study that the Flow will soon collapse. All systems will be isolated; none are self-sufficient. Humans can only live on a planetary surface on End; they need space stations or underground habitats in other systems. Without the Flow, society on every system will likely collapse. The count sends his son Marce, also a physicist, to Hub to warn his old friend Emperox Attavio VI. The Emperox has died, however, and his unprepared daughter Cardenia is crowned as Grayland II.

House Nohamapetan wants to marry an heir to Cardenia to gain power. It believes that the Flow will change but not collapse, with End becoming the new center of the network. The house covertly supports rebels on End to overthrow its duke, hoping to take power and become the new royal family when the Flow network reshapes. Thousands of imperial troops are sent to End after terrorist bombings on Hub, allegedly caused by End conspirators but actually by the house.

Marce's ship is the last to leave End before its Flow entrance shoal closes; the system's exit shoal will be the last to close. Although Nohamapetan's plan to assassinate Cardenia is exposed, its family member on End frames Count Claremont for murdering the Duke of End and becomes the new Duke. The novel ends with Marce and Cardenia believing that they need to warn every system of the collapse and the need to evacuate people to End. Other nobles and bureaucrats are skeptical of their civilization's coming collapse, and Nohamapetan controls the Flow exit and imperial troops at End.

Kim Yeon-hong (Son Ye-jin) appears to have a perfect life. She is beautiful, is married to a charismatic young politician (Kim Joo-hyuk), and her adolescent daughter who used to be a troublesome child is now doing better at school. Her husband, Kim Jong-chan, decides to run for office against the powerful incumbent, No Jae-soon (Kim Eui-sung). A few days before the elections, Yeon-hong and Jong-chan's daughter, Kim Min-jin (Shin Ji-hoon), goes missing. At first, they assume she has run off to seek their attention as she had done before. However, Yeon-hong soon finds out that the friend Min-jin she said she was going to meet does not exist. Then Yeon-hong learns from the school her daughter attends that she had an eccentric friend named Choi Mi-ok (Kim So-hee) and they were both bullied by their classmates.

While questioning Mi-ok, Yeon-hong notices the girl is wearing an expensive watch that looks like her daughter's despite coming from a poor family. Yeon-hong becomes suspicious and tells this to Jong-chan. However, her husband is more preoccupied with his campaign. Yeon-hong then hacks into her daughter's email account and finds leaked examination papers sent by a young female teacher at her school. Yeon-hong knows the teacher since she once invited Jong-chan to the school as a guest speaker. The teacher eventually admits she leaked the papers but only to help Min-jin and Mi-ok improve their grades so that they can become popular to avoid getting bullied.

As the police detectives fail to find any leaks, a desperate Yeon-hong goes to a shaman to find her daughter. However, it is all too late when the police finds Min-jin's dead body in the woods. A traumatized Yeon-hong blames her husband for their daughter's murder to get the city's sympathy vote since he refuses to tell the detectives where he and his driver were during the night Min-jin went missing. Despite his daughter's murder, Jong-chan is convinced by his party's president to continue his campaign.

Yeon-hong continues with her own investigation and finds an abandoned building where Min-jin and Mi-ok would practice their music. Yeon-hong convinces the police to hypnotize Mi-ok but it is not helpful. They then run a lie detector test on Mi-ok which reveals she is lying when she denies burying Min-jin's body but passes when she confesses that she did not kill her best friend. It is then revealed that Mi-ok is actually the daughter of Jong-chan's driver. Yeon-hong theorizes that Mi-ok was jealous of Min-jin for being rich and killed her out of jealousy. However, she has no evidence to prove it. Yeon-hong then breaks into Min-jin and Mi-ok's secret hideout and finds money hidden away in a bag. When Mi-ok shows up, Yeon-hong captures her and forces her to tell the truth about Min-jin's murder.

Mi-ok finally reveals that she and Min-jin became best friends after discovering they both shared the same taste in music. Min-jin then starts to suspect their teacher is having an affair. They then give the teacher a car air freshener with a hidden camera inside, which records the teacher having wild sex in her car with her secret lover. Min-jin and Mi-ok then uses the recordings to blackmail their teacher for exam papers. Since Mi-ok's family is poor, Min-jin then blackmails the teacher for money. One night, the two girls are out playing in the rain when a car runs over Min-jin while Mi-ok is hiding in the bushes. While the driver exits the car to take a photo of Min-jin's dead body, Mi-ok sneaks into the car and runs over the killer as well. She then carries Min-jin's body away and buries it in the woods after taking the contract killer's phone with her. Mi-ok is sure her teacher arranged for her and Min-jin to be killed. Yeon-hong takes the phone and is shown hatching a plan to kill the person who sent the contract killer to murder her daughter.

Later that day over dinner, Yeon-hong tells her husband that although No Jae-son most likely had nothing to do with their daughter's death, he must use the sympathy vote to win the election. Later that night, while her husband is celebrating his victory, Yeon-hong calls up the person who hired the contract killer and forces them to come to the scene of the crime or else she will leak the sex video onto the net. The person then shows up and it is not the teacher, but Jong-chan. Through flashbacks, we see that the man the teacher was having an affair with is none other than Jong-chan. After Min-jin blackmailed her teacher, the teacher told Jong-chan she is being blackmailed by two of her own students but does not tell him it is his own daughter and her best friend. Jong-chan unwittingly hired the contract killer to murder his own daughter. Yeon-hong ties her husband up and beats him in anger. She then uploads his sex video onto the internet as he watches helplessly.

Gypsy is held captive for a short time before Cisco allows her to return to her Earth. Using his powers, Cisco determines that the gorillas will attack the center of town. This turns out to be a distraction by Grodd, who uses telepathy to compel Joe West to shoot himself in the head, but Barry pushes Joe out of the way of the bullet in time.

In The Characters' Past

Fiona and Malcolm bore a son on a winter's night, but soon learn from the child's fairy godmother - Tiger Lily - that as the Savior, he is prophesied to die fighting a great evil. Fretting over her son's future, Fiona starts to read up on all of the fairy lore that she can, in hopes of stopping the prophecy, and comes to believe that her son's undoing, who will be marked by a crescent, has to be born sometime soon. The amount of information she has gained from the fairy lore allows Fiona to cast a spell and turn herself into a fairy, and she convinces Tiger Lily to travel with her to all of the newborns of that winter to check for the birthmark. Finding that none have it, Fiona comes up with a new idea that requires being allowed into the sacred fairy vault, but Tiger Lily soon deduces that Fiona's plan involves combining two spells, which is against the rules, to create a curse - the Dark Curse - which will banish all of the children to a land without magic, eliminating the threat they pose to her son. Tiger Lily tries to stop Fiona, but this only results in having her heart ripped out by the now deranged fairy who, upon proclaiming her willingness to kill her own son's fairy godmother, has her magic completely darkened... and the crescent appear on her wrist. Evil wasn't born this winter, but it was made. The Blue Fairy is able to return Tiger Lily's heart, but Tiger Lily makes one last attempt to reason with Fiona by offering her the Shears of Destiny to remove her powers; however, Fiona instead uses them to cut her son's fate as the Savior, believing that she needs her powers to protect him. Blue is unable to forgive this though, and so she takes Fiona's wand and uses the Ancient Wand to banish her to the Dark Realm. Before Fiona is dragged through the portal, she swears to do everything in her power to reunite with her son. The fairies return the baby to Malcolm, but he is now embittered by the loss of his wife. Malcolm remarks that once this child was perfect, and now because of him, he believes his wife to be dead. He starts his poor parenthood by giving his son the "perfect" name out of spite: Rumpelstiltskin.

In Storybrooke

At the Pawn Shop, Gold attempts to use a scent to wake up Mother Superior, but after it fails, he steps outside and sends a newspaper box flying as Belle calms him down. When Emma comes out to tell Gold Mother Superior is awake they go back in so they can ask her about the missing wand. Unfortunately, after she tells them that it was in the center of Storybrooke, she becomes unstable; Emma discovers that Snow and David are actually not there and it is in fact Fiona (posing as Snow) and Gideon (posing as David.) Although Fiona escapes with Mother Superior, Gideon is stopped by Gold as Gold places the Anti-Magic Cuffs on Gideon, vowing to get his heart back. As everyone begins searching for the wand, Gold tells Belle and Gideon that he has a better idea. Using a powder to transport them to a Dream realm via Gideon's dream, Gold unleashed the powder on himself, his son, and surprisingly enough, Emma.

At the same time, Regina helps Zelena deal with recent loss of her magic by helping her learn how to drive a car, which she hopes will give her a chance to escape Storybrooke with her daughter and Henry before the final battle. As Snow, David and Hook search for the other part of the wand, Fiona has Mother Superior as her prisoner under the mines. At the Clock Tower, Snow calls Regina for help, Regina and Snow soon discovered that the wand is located inside Granny's. When they converge on the restaurant, they find it under the jukebox, and just in time for Fiona to show up. Regina challenges her to a duel for the wand, and as they step outside into the street, Fiona uses her magic on Regina, but Fiona gets hit by Zelena with the car; Fiona then disappears, after telling them that it's not over.

Inside the dream world, Emma learns that Gold wanted her with him so she wouldn't try anything that would prevent him from finding Gideon's heart. When Gold hears a crying baby coming from a cabin nearby, Emma discovered that this is Gold's dream. As they continued to search, Emma talks to Gold about being abandoned by family but Gold says his was different from Emma's and he has no remorse for his mother. Suddenly, Gideon appears, this time to thank his father for fighting for him. Realizing that he couldn't find his son's heart, Gideon suggested that Gold has an advantage by discovering Fiona's secret, if Gold is willing to face it. Thanks to Emma's advice, the three witness the flashback that shows Fiona become the Black Fairy and the revelation that Gold was destined to become the Savior. The three soon wake up afterwards, with Regina giving the other wand fragment to Gold, which he then reunites.

That night at the park, Gold tells Fiona he knows the truth, but as aforementioned in the flashback, she shows Gold what happened after she became the Black Fairy and changed her son's destiny that prevented him from becoming the Savior. As Fiona asked her son for her forgiveness Gold isn't sure if he wants to. Hours later at Granny's, Gold returns to tell Emma, Belle, Snow, David, Hook and Gideon that Fiona was banished, and gives Gideon his heart back. Gold then tells Belle and Gideon that he'll do whatever it takes to keep his family safe. At Emma's home, Hook asks Henry to be his best man at the upcoming wedding between Emma and Hook. Hook then gives the rings to Henry before telling Emma that he was stepping out for a while. Finally, at another location, it is discovered that Fiona was not banished and Gold is meeting with her. It turned out that they made a trade by allowing Gold to acquire Gideon's heart, in return for letting Fiona start the Final Battle, since Gold believes that he finally understands his mother, and that this would be the best way to protect his family. This meant that Emma is still the Savior meant to fight in the Final Battle. Fiona tells Gold that on Emma's wedding day, she will die.

Jae-hyeok is a young man who works at the local nuclear power plant, which is the only thing providing the town with energy, and also provides of most of the jobs. Jae-hyeok lives with his mother, sister in law, and nephew Min-jae. Jae-hyeok wishes to leave the town and the plant behind him and work on a fishing vessel to make money for his family, but is discouraged by everyone he knows.

Pyeong-seok is a member of the plant, who tries to get the president to shut down the plant, but he dismisses the claims, saying nothing will happen. One night, the animals of the town mysteriously run into the water.

Then, the next day, while Jae-hyeok is working, an earthquake suddenly strikes the town, causing one of the nuclear reactors to overheat. Attempts to cool it down are botched, as water does nothing to stop it, and that due to the reactor's age, coolant valves were too severely damaged to be fixed in time. During an attempt to get out, the whole basement caves in, killing most of the crew. Jae-hyeok is one of the few to get out, and continues to get people to safety, until he collapses from nuclear radiation. Meanwhile, the president and his government debate allowing the reactor to vent radioactive particles into the air to relieve pressure from the core. The President insists on evacuating at least those closest to the reactor first. This backfires when the reactor stack explodes from the pressure as the workers were too late to try and vent steam into the air, leading to a full nuclear meltdown.

Meanwhile, the KCDC quarantines the town's residents not far from the reactor. After Jae-hyeok's girlfriend, Yeon-joo, gets proof that the reactor exploded and delivers the news, the KCDC locks the town's residents in the evacuation center and put up an internet jammer, rendering their phones useless. Yeon-joo spreads the word and later the residents manage to break out and get back in the buses to continue evacuating. Back at a local hospital, situations grow tense as Jae-hyeok's health continues deteriorating, the medical team runs out of medical supplies and almost all the nurses have abandoned the sick and injured as public authorities also abandon the town, but he and several others were saved as one nurse had decided to stay and treat the injured. Despite the firefighters' efforts, the reactor is not cooling down and some firefighters start to suffer from radiation poisoning. Upon discovering that spent fuel rods are losing coolant due to the damage it sustained by the earthquake, the only option is to send a team in to blow the bottom of the coolant tank under the spent fuel rods, and create a new container in the tank below, thus preventing another meltdown.

Jae-hyeok, though initially distasteful with the government because of their negligence, agrees to a rescue mission, calling a distraught Yeon-joo before getting on a bus back to the town. Jae-hyeok remembers his childhood times before the nuclear disaster, before coming to the plant. With the crack underneath the coolant tank growing bigger during the mission, and no time left, Jae-hyeok; the only person who knows how to detonate bombs out of all others, willingly goes in. Having been exposed to too much radiation, and that he lost both his father and brother to radiation poisoning long before, he knows there is no hope going out alive and he chooses to sacrifice himself to save his other workers and his family and stop the disaster. He allows the workers to seal himself into the waste room and flee the area. In his final moments, Jae-hyeok uses his helmet-mounted camera to broadcast a farewell message to his family and Yeon-joo before blowing up the tank, killing himself in the process.

The film follows Jeremy and Kathryn Mathis and their five children over several years in Colorado. One child, six-year-old Coy Mathis, is a young transgender girl who had come out as transgender in kindergarten. She was able to use the girls' bathroom freely until the first grade when the principal informed the parents that moving forward, Coy would only be able to use the boys bathroom or the nurse's bathroom. Rather than comply, Jeremy and Kathryn pulled their kids from school and worked with the Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund to file a complaint with the Colorado Civil Rights Division.

While awaiting a decision, the Mathises went public with their case and became a magnet for the issue in an international media firestorm, including a notable appearance on ''Katie'' and a spread in ''Rolling Stone''. The film goes on to show how the media pressure put strain on Jeremy and Kathryn's marriage, eventually leading to their separation. In the end, a ruling came down in their favor, enabling transgender people across the state to use facilities that match their gender identity.

The ruling was the first of its kind in the United States, and had ripple effects across the country. Shortly after the ruling, California enacted its own law allowing transgender students to pick bathrooms and sports teams they identify with. The Obama Administration also issued guidelines that protect transgender students using Title IX as the basis for nondiscrimination. Many states resisted the guidelines and proposed so-called bathroom bills, most of which would force transgender students to use that bathroom that matches their birth certificates. So far, one bathroom bill was made into law, HB2 in North Carolina.

She is rescued the next day by a man who brings her to a hospital, where the doctor calls her family and informs them of the incident. A police asks Noori how this happened, and asks her quite inappropriate questions if she had an affair with that guy and if she invited the rape.

In the middle of the night, he, without Zubia’s consent, enters her room and walks closer to her. Zubia yells and after Rehan and Sheema find them in the room together, the man falsely accuses Zubia of calling him to repair her laptop and asking him for sexual favours. Zubia stands up for herself and tells her brother that when it was my fault, I didn't argue one bit, but now, I will not bear these lies and unjust treatment I am given. Zubia’s brother refuses to believe her and he and Zubia’s sister in law throw Zubia of the house at night. Zubia, with no place to go went to her aunt Mahjabin's home in Peshawar who believes her. Zubia lives there for a few weeks but because her cousin’s wife’s behaviour isn’t good with her, and she thought aunt's son and daughter in law's lives are being disturbed, she leaves and joins a hostel. She gives a job interview with Asfandyar’s newly established hospital. Where she instantly feels as if she has already seen him somewhere.

From day one, she is scolded a lot by Dr. Asfandyar and that's why she also calls him Hitler and Changez Khan. Asfandyar is now very intelligent but very arrogant. His brother's death resulted in him becoming a bitter person. Zubia and Gaiti (wife of Daniyal) become best friends after meeting in a nearby sitting area. Zubia talks to Gaiti about Asfandyar being Hitler, Zubia tells her about her boss not knowing that Asfandyar is Gaiti’s brother in law. When Zubiya learns that he is also the brother in law of Gaiti she became angry and didn't talk to Gaiti as she blames her for not telling her this and believes that now Asfandyar will think as if Dr. Zubiya is trying to impress his family to gain benefits and profit in her job. Gaiti tells Zubia that it doesn’t matter and outside of the hospital Zubia can be anyone’s family member and she can also be a part of anyone’s family. After a few days, they make up with each other. Zubia searched and found that he was the person who saved her from Rameez. Gaiti also tells her all about her family, Asfandyar and Daniyal. After some time Zubia realizes that Gaeti and Dr. Haroon (Zubia colleague) can marry as Dr. Haroon also lost his dearest wife in an accident just like Gaiti lost Daniyal. On the other hand, Asfandyar's family wants him to marry Zubia. Everyone in Asfandyar’s family loves Zubia and Asfandyar’s mom thinks of Zubia as her daughter. Everyone becomes close to Zubia in a short time because of her positive nature, Gaiti left behind her trauma of Daniyal's death and started to socialize.

Here as Zubia is slowly improving her performance as a doctor, she and Asfandyar establish good terms with one another and soon fall in love. In the meantime, Faryal came back and she wishes to marry Asfandyar because her husband divorced her and that she regrets her ill-treatment with Asfandyar during that difficult phase. But Asfandyar did not agree to marry her and she went back to her home. Here, Urooj Nisar who was Daniyal ex-secretary and accused him of raping her, comes to the hospital with her injured son who met a car accident as he was drunk. Asfandyar identifies who she is, right in the first sight, so does she. He locks himself in his office and cries remembering his brother. He performs surgery on Urooj's son without taking a single penny from her. In extreme guilt, Urooj calls upon a press conference and confesses all her crimes and ask for forgiveness. Everyone from Zubia, to Faryal and her parents, everyone saw it on the media and Daniyal's family finally feels proud that their son lost his life in trying to protect humanity. Asfandyar and his father travel and visit Daniyal's grave and attend a seminar which is held to honour Daniyal. After he returned, he proposes to Zubiya but she rejects the proposal saying that temporary infatuation doesn't mean you can get married. She does this because she has lied a lot about her past to everyone and believes that when Asfi will end up remembering the Rameez incident, he will leave Zubia thinking that she is a characterless woman. Both are heartbroken. Rehan, on the other hand, wakes up in the middle of the night and wishes to ask forgiveness from Zubia. So he comes to the hospital to meet her. Zubia notices him and gets very tensed and thought that now everyone will find out that she lied about not having a brother, and her family. She becomes hopeless and flees from the hospital. Asfandyar locates her and finds her standing high up on the cliff, below which is a lake. Asfandyar is shocked and runs to save her but she had jumped into the lake, and thus committing suicide. Asfandyar without a second thought risks his life to save hers, he rescues her before she could drown completely. Asfandyar then brought her to the hospital while she remained unconscious. Here he finds about her, and reprimands Zubia brother for ill treating Zubia and confesses his love and adoration for her. After Zubia gains consciousness Asfandyar tells her that he doesn't care about anything but only her and wants to spend the rest of his life with her. They tearfully hug. Rehan is also forgiven by Zubia. Dr. Haroon and Gaiti happily are married too. In a voiceover Zubia mentions that in a few days it would be a whole year since she and Asfandyar have been married, and that all the hardships and challenges Allah had in store for you, he also rewards you with blessings in return. In the end, everything was worth it and happened for a reason. The show ends with the moss green SUV of Asfandyar vanishing from the sight as he and his Zubia are out on their journey with "Ek Naya Aghaaz" flashing on screen before the curtain falls.

Ania and Tomek

Ania, a single 27 year old elementary school music teacher, goes on an online date. When her date, "Ant_Man", does not show up, a successful TV-host and puppeteer Tomek notices her. As he is very popular with women, he believes her to be an easy game. He preys on Ania's unsuccessful situation in order to convince her to sleep with him. Ania, however, is not impressed by his brusqueness and tells him she expects knightly behaviour from any suitor.

In the next TV-show episode Tomek presents a puppet, "Hania", closely resembling Ania and makes fun of "Hania's" character and behavior. Following the strong reactions to the episode, the show is scheduled to air on primetime. This causes that Marcel, the show's producer and Tomek's long-time friend, is replaced.

Tomek needs more "Hania's" stories to present, so he finds Ania and strikes a deal with her: she is to go on online dates and provide Tomek with ideas for his show. In exchange he will buy a new piano for Ania's school. Ania uses a dating app "Planet Single" to find dates and reports back to Tomek. The sketches based on Ania's dates are a success. She is contacted by another user, "Bitter-Sweet", and they have a friendly chat. Ania wants to meet him but "Bitter-Sweet" refuses and says that he only wants to chat for now.

Antonio explains, that he's been a widower for the past few months and that he missed the previous date because of his daughter. Ania tells Tomek about Antonio. Tomek, who has been slowly falling in love with Ania, thinks that Antonio is just manipulating Ania as Antonio's story seems far-fetched.

Tomek manages to find Antonio's wife and together with Marcel they interrupt Hania's second date with Antonio. Tomek calls Antonio a cheater while and records the entire incident on camera. However, it turns out that the woman isn't actually Antonio's wife, but his sister, and that Antonio spoke the truth the entire time. Antonio walks away in disgust. Ania scolds Tomek and refuses to see him ever again. Marcel is upset about the situation as well as Tomek's behavior and resigns from his job.

Some days later, Antonio visits Ania to inform her that he won't date her anymore, because the incident with Tomek made him realize that he still isn't ready for a serious relationship. He and Ania part ways on good terms.

In a final episode of Tomek's show, the recorded incident from Ania's previous date is to be shown, much to Tomek's regret. He seeks out Marcel's help and together they hijack the intended episode program. Instead of the date recording, Tomek presents a video featuring several past "Hania's" dates. They have all found love because of their failed dates with "Hania". Tomek then gives a speech about "Hania", admiring that she is, unlike him, brave, honest and confident. He doesn't reveal "Hania's" true identity and instead considers "Hania" to be more of an everyday hero. Tomek encourages viewers not to end up alone like he did.

Ania's mother, moved by Tomek's speech, reconnects with Ania. At home, Ania notices that "Bitter-Sweet" has been trying to contact her. She sets up a date with him. There it turns out that "Bitter-Sweet" is actually Tomek, who comes to the date dressed in knight armor. He tells Ania he loves her and they kiss.

Local cop Sergeant Daniels arrives just in time and orders all of them to put down their weapons. He tells Fred to bring the dog out, but Ratsguts is missing. The kids and Ratsguts head for the cave where the "monster" lives. They enter the cave and Ratsguts begins fighting with a wild dog. Daniels, Fred and the farmers arrive, and Daniels shoots the wild dog, leaving Ratsguts unharmed. The dead dog is identified as one that ran away from Wilkie's farm due to ill treatment.

In 1865, Katherine (Pugh) is in a loveless marriage to an older man, Alexander Lester (Hilton). They live at the estate of Alexander's father, Boris, in rural Northumberland in the North East of England. Katherine is forced to maintain a strict schedule and prevented from leaving the house. Boris scolds her for not giving Alexander a son, but Alexander's sexual interest in his wife seems to be limited to watching her naked body and masturbating whilst observing. One day, both Boris and Alexander have to leave the estate for separate business matters, leaving Katherine alone with the housemaid, Anna. For the first time in memory, she is free to explore the area to alleviate her boredom.

Katherine discovers Anna being suspended from the ceiling of an outbuilding in a sheet by the men who work on the land. They say they are weighing a sow. Katherine has the woman released. She is attracted to one of the men, Sebastian, and the next day sets herself up to meet him. When Sebastian comes to the house to visit Katherine, they begin an affair. Anna informs the local priest, who attempts to warn Katherine, but she sends him away. When Boris returns home, he finds his favourite wine has run out. He accuses Anna of drinking it and tells her to get on the floor on all fours: if she behaves as animal she will be treated as an animal. Katherine says nothing. Boris is later informed of the affair, beats Sebastian and locks him in a stable. He strikes Katherine when she demands his release. Katherine then poisons his food, and calmly makes small talk with Anna as he chokes to death in the next room.

Anna is terrified into muteness, and Boris is buried without suspicion. Katherine takes over the estate, and she and Sebastian continue their affair openly. One night, while they are asleep in Katherine's marital bed, she awakes to realise that Alexander has returned home. After he reveals that he is aware of the infidelity, Katherine summons Sebastian and they start to have sex in front of him. A fight ensues, during which Katherine kills Alexander. The couple bury Alexander's body in the woods and kill his horse. They are not directly accused of the murder, and Sebastian begins to dress and behave as the lord of the manor himself.

Katherine turns Sebastian's confession back on him, and accuses him of committing all of the murders with Anna. Her word is taken over his, especially when Anna remains mute. As Sebastian and Anna are taken away by the police, the remaining servants leave and Katherine remains alone in the house with her unborn child.

In the first act, attorney J. G. Utterson is at a London vicarage, talking to the vicar, Reverend William Howell. Howell relates a story about how he intervened when he saw a boy being beaten by a man named Edward Hyde. Utterson is dismayed to hear the name Edward Hyde. After the vicar leaves, Utterson speaks with Dr. Lanyon, then with Dr. Henry Jekyll, who lives next door to the vicarage. After Jekyll and Utterson leave, Lanyon speaks to the vicar's daughter, Sybil Howell, who admits to being in love with Jekyll. Sybil sees that Lanyon does not approve, and she asks Jekyll about it when he returns. He says she would not understand, and begins talking about the dual presence of good and evil in men. Suddenly, Jekyll feels that a "change is approaching", and runs into the shadows. Edward Hyde emerges from the shadows and menaces Sybil. She calls for her father, who enters and is immediately attacked and murdered by Hyde. Hyde runs away; Jekyll returns and asks who has attacked them. With his dying breath, the vicar says it was Hyde.

In the second act, Inspector Newcomen shows Utterson part of the walking stick that Hyde used to club Howell. Utterson recognizes it as one he gave to Jekyll. Newcomen vows to find the killer, and asks to interview Sybil, who has been staying with Utterson since the murder. Jekyll visits Utterson with a letter from Hyde, claiming he has departed. When Jekyll leaves, Utterson's assistant, Mr. Guest, points out that the handwriting on the letter is very similar to Jekyll's. When Utterson leaves, Jekyll returns and delivers a monologue confessing that he is the murderer. After a brief conversation with Sybil, Jekyll leaves, and Utterson's niece Lilian brings in a group of choirboys from Howell's church, who sing a song for Sybil. Then Utterson and Newcomen return, saying they play to lay a trap for Hyde. Sybil insists on going with them. When Hyde approaches the vicarage, he is chased by the police.

In the third act, Utterson and the police discuss their failure to catch Hyde. Officer O'Brien says he thought Hyde came into the vicarage, but he saw Jekyll approaching him instead. Utterson tells the police that Jekyll has been allowing Hyde into his laboratory. Sybil overhears this and is distraught to learn that Jekyll has helped her father's killer. Sybil resolves to investigate the case herself by visiting Hyde's landlady, Mrs. Viley. Lilian goes with her. In return for money, Viley tells them that she has never met Jekyll, but has heard Hyde threaten repeatedly to kill him. Hyde returns home and attacks Viley when he learns she has received money from Sybil. Viley screams for the police and Hyde flees. In the act's final scene, Lanyon waits in his office with drugs from Jekyll's laboratory that he retrieved on written instructions from Jekyll. Hyde arrives to retrieve the drugs. In front of Lanyon, Hyde mixes the drugs and drinks the resulting potion, which transforms him into Jekyll.

The fourth act begins four months later. Lanyon has died of shock, and Jekyll refuses to see Utterson or Sybil. Sybil is still angry that Jekyll is believed to have helped Hyde; Lilian, who always disliked Jekyll, supports Sybil's anger. One of Jekyll's servants, Poole, visits to say he fears Jekyll has been murdered. Someone is secluded in Jekyll's study, claiming to be him and communicating mostly through written notes, but Poole thinks it is someone else. Utterson, Sybil, and Lilian agree to accompany Poole to confront the person in Jekyll's study. Utterson and Poole find Jekyll's servants huddled together in fear of the person in the study. In the study, Jekyll gives a monologue explaining that he can no longer find the ingredients for his potion, and therefore will soon revert to Hyde without the ability to transform back. Sybil comes to the study and sees that Jekyll appears ill. He tells her they will marry when he is better, but when she leaves he monologues that he will die soon, then he transforms into Hyde. When Utterson and Poole come to the study door, Hyde commits suicide by drinking poison.

The story takes place in Branson County, North Carolina. Within that county, the biggest city, Troy, is mainly peaceful and undisturbed. The town lives a rather typical southern lifestyle in which the town members carry on their usual business such as working and chatting with others within the town. It is known for its “southern simplicity.” Troy is described as a town with “no very wealthy families” fitting the description of having a town of “poor whites” The town's typical occurrences are disrupted when Captain Walker, a respected Civil War veteran, with one arm, was murdered. The town was in a stand still since murder rarely happened in Troy. The townspeople within the town became frantic and angered by the murder. Thus, the Sheriff, assembled a group of citizens to search for the murderer. The murderer was caught and taken to the jail house. It was assumed to be a local mulatto man named Tom who was the last person to be seen with Captain Walker before the discovery of his murder. The citizens of the town, however, were not satisfied with the Sheriff holding Tom in the county jail until his hearing. A mob formed within the town with the intent of taking Tom from out of the county jail and lynching him. A local African-American man named Sam overheard the conversation amongst the lynch mob and reported it to the Sheriff. The Sheriff was identified as Colonel Sheriff Campbell. Sheriff Campbell, unlike the rest of those within the town, comes from a family of wealth and is highly educated. His family owned numerous slaves and had plantation style land masses before the Civil War.

Sheriff Campbell goes to the county jail to protect Tom from the lynch mob that is going to approach soon. His daughter Polly begs her father not to go to the county jail since the mob may get out of control and hurt her father. The Sheriff goes anyway and brings his pistol with him. While monitoring the jail, the mob arrives and asks for the sheriff to release Tom into their custody. The Sheriff denies them entrance in and the mob becomes enraged by the Sheriff's lack of understanding. The mob threatens to break down the door of the jail to retrieve Tom. The Sheriff states that if they try to do that, he will shoot them. The mob eventually backs down and leaves the county jail. While the Sheriff was dealing with the mob, Tom takes his pistol and uses it to try to escape. He orders the Sheriff to unlock the doors within the cell and jail. After the jail is unlocked Tom states that he has but no choice to kill the Sheriff in order to escape. He exclaims that he did not kill the captain, but the court will not believe him and hang him regardless. The Sheriff is confused and questions Tom as to why he would try to kill him after he had saved him from the lynch mob. Tom then explains that he is his bastard son who was sold when he was younger to help pay for the debts that the Sheriff and his family was in. The Sheriff then remembers Tom's mother Cicely and Tom and asks why he would try to kill his own father. Tom proclaims that The Sheriff was never a father, but a man who he shares blood with. Because of the way he treated his mother and himself, Tom believes that the Sheriff never valued him as a son because of the color of his skin. He curses him for making him feel like a white man on the inside but a black man on the outside. Tom and the sheriff continue to bicker about how he is free now and the color of his skin, that Polly enters the jail cell and shoots Tom just before he is about to kill the Sheriff. The Sheriff then wraps Tom in a tourniquet and locks him back up and returns home with Polly.

Later that night the Sheriff lays awake restless as he thinks about Tom. He becomes remorseful since he believes that he has failed to be a father to Tom and provide the life for him that he could have. He thought about freeing him as a young boy and raising him in the North and giving him an education. He then thinks about freeing him momentarily from the jail but remembers his duty as the sheriff. The Sheriff arrives early in the morning the next day at the county jail to find Tom dead. Tom had removed his bandage from the wound in his arm and bled out in the jail cell.

As a young boy, Nick befriends several of the neighborhood residents, including the alcoholic former Judge Sullivan, disabled newspaper vendor Wart, former prizefighter Goodbye George, lounge singer Flora, deliveryman/ taxi driver Max, and prostitute Fran. When Nellie is unfairly fired just before Christmas, the Romanos' friends all surprise her with Christmas decorations, food and gifts, and join in an impromptu party. Feeling a family connection to each other and young Nick, the group all agree to help Nellie look after the boy and protect him from falling into the life of crime prevalent in the neighborhood.

Ten years later, Nick is about to graduate high school. Through diligent practice, he has become a talented classical pianist who aspires to attend the local conservatory of music, but has been unsuccessful in getting an audition. His mother Nellie is now supporting them both by working as a B-girl and (it is implied) prostitute, causing Nick to suffer abuse from his classmates. Despite promising Nellie that he will not fight and risk injuring his hands, Nick fights several gang members who insulted her, and is saved from serious injury only when George, who has just been released from jail that day, joins the fight to help him. As a result, George is sent back to prison and Nick gets a jail sentence despite Judge Sullivan's drunken attempt to defend him in court. Nick is released when Nellie's new friend Louis Ramponi pays his fine.

Nellie has an affair with Ramponi even though she learns he is married and operating an illegal numbers racket. Judge Sullivan, who himself loves Nellie, learns via Fran and Flora, who has become a heroin addict, that Ramponi is also selling heroin. Ramponi soon gets Nellie secretly addicted to heroin. Sullivan decides he must do more to help Nick, and takes him to see Grant Holloway, a respectable lawyer and old friend of Sullivan. Holloway was also the public defender who unsuccessfully represented Nick's father, and now feels he owes a debt to Nick. After hearing the young man play the piano, Holloway agrees to help him get an audition for the conservatory. Nick begins dating Holloway's daughter, Barbara, and the two quickly fall in love. Nick is embarrassed when the Holloways visit him at home and see Nellie in what Nick thinks is a drunken state, but is actually heroin withdrawal.

On the day of Nick's conservatory audition, he learns that Nellie has become a heroin addict due to Ramponi. With a gun taken from Wart, Nick goes after the man, but Ramponi disarms him and holds him captive, planning to dose him with heroin. Alerted by Wart and Flora, Judge Sullivan, Max and Nellie go to Ramponi's business and rescue Nick. Ramponi shoots Sullivan, who in turn kills him by breaking his neck. Sullivan tells Nick to run away before the police arrive, and dies in Nellie's arms. Nellie and her friends mourn Sullivan's death and she declares she will "take the cure" and beat her addiction; the others, recognizing what a struggle life is for all them, are supportive but skeptical. Nick is happily reunited with Barbara and moves on to a better life.

After the bizarre death of her brother, Johanna Burwood must return home after four years, to face her strange siblings, her out-of-touch father and her very touchy past.

A large spaceship appears over Tokyo three years before the story starts. A one-sided war against the seemingly harmless aliens ensues, sparking controversy and pacifism.

Despite this unique and tragic event, high school girls Koyama Kadode and Nakagawa Ouran behave as if nothing has changed. They live their days like they always have. The focus of this story is not the alien invasion, but human nature, dialogue, growing up, and life.

In Wales, Jessica “Jess” Webb-Thomas, an American sculptor and former drug addict, meets with her estranged daughter Chloe (from Jess’s prior marriage and sent to foster care due to the former's drug addiction) and invites her to come live with her and her second husband, Ben Thomas. Chloe declines. That night, she goes out with her friend Danny to a house where legend says a witch lived. The two knock twice on the door and leave. Danny starts experiencing paranormal occurrences and is later dragged away by an unseen force. When the demonic spirit frightens Chloe, she accepts Jess' offer and moves in with her.

Chloe is initially hostile to her family. Strange events unfold, beginning when Chloe finds a human molar in her carrot and coriander soup. Jess suffers from a nightmare about an old woman crying in her house. In her nightmare, the woman looks at Jess and says "Przepraszam" ("I'm sorry" in Polish), before slitting her own throat. Jess tells Chloe about her dream and, finding this description familiar, Chloe tells her about Mary Aminov, a supposed witch that used to live next door. After her death by suicide, an urban legend started that she would come and get you if you knocked twice on her door. While sculpting, Jess's model Tira is disturbed by Chloe's presence and leaves. Chloe believes to be haunted by Baba Yaga, a demonic witch from Slavic folklore.

Chloe slowly warms up to her mother. One day, Jess discovers her workshop in shambles with "She's mine" scrawled on the floor. That night, the two are terrorized by the witch. The next day, a portal opens and Chloe is almost dragged inside but is saved by Jess. They meet with Tira, who says that Mary was never a witch. Because Chloe helped spread the false rumor of witchcraft, Mary's spirit wants revenge. Chloe flees in panic, convinced that the disappearances were her fault. She is found and returned to the foster home. Jess goes to retrieve her and has an epiphany that the true culprit of the disappearances was not Mary but Detective Boardman. Chloe is taken by the witch.

Jess breaks into Mary's abandoned house, injuring her foot on an old nail. She is caught and sent to the police station, but not before knocking twice at the door. When she is alone in her prison cell, she is taken through the same portal. She wanders into a cave where she finds a cage with Chloe in it. Jess gets her out and Baba Yaga pursues them; meanwhile, Boardman arrives at the witch's home. The pair are able to escape through the front door, but Boardman is dragged inside by the witch.

Ben returns home and is confronted by a mysterious figure in their bedroom. Jess and Chloe arrive home but find Ben missing. Tira is shown leaving the property covered in blood with Ben's dead body in the trunk of her car. The "Slave of Baba Yaga" symbol is shown on her chest. Jess informs Chloe that Boardman was the culprit, but Chloe reveals that while in the other world she saw Danny, and that he was indeed taken by Mary and fed to Baba Yaga and that Boardman was innocent. It's then that Jess realizes that Tira lied and tricked her into offering Boardman's life to Baba Yaga in order to transfer the demon to Jess.

Jess is surprised by a sudden burning sensation from her necklace and realizes that she now has the mark of Baba Yaga. The room goes dark and there are two knocks at the door. As it opens, the figure of Baba Yaga reaching toward them is the last thing seen before the film ends.

They decide to briefly postpone killing themselves in order to explore the forest and also to continue talking to one another, as Ricardo and Carolina find themselves intrigued by one another.

Pregnant, she is overwhelmed with being the sole decision-maker due to living the closest, but she does care deeply about her grandfather and doesn't wish to think of him dying. Back at the office Kalman studies the photographs he's taken that day, contemplating the lives lived.

She leaves to join a friend, Kathleen, on a weekend trip. While disposing of many things into an onsite dumpster, Will comes across letters written by his own father, Will, to his mother, Joy, that expresses, among other things, deep love. Later he falls asleep to records playing soft jazz.

Will's sleep is interrupted by a frantic phone call from Donna. A drunk driver has hit the car the two girls were driving in and killed Tallie.

In the characters' pasts

1991, Land Without Magic

At a group children's home in Minnesota, Emma records herself singing, only to have another girl interrupt her, reminding Emma that she will always be an orphan.

Before the First Curse, Enchanted Forest, and the Land of Oz

After talking with Rumpelstiltskin in the castle dungeon, Snow makes a wish that her future daughter will be happy and safe before the Curse takes place. The next day, the wish comes true: Snow and David break into song and realize that they can defeat Regina through the power of music ("Powerful Magic"). The wish also affects Regina, who notices that the entire forest is singing ("The Queen Sings") and makes a plan to destroy everyone's happiness ("Love Doesn't Stand a Chance").

Meanwhile, David and Snow visit a tavern to enlist Hook to help them search for Regina. Hook refuses their offer of gold and explains that revenge on Rumpelstiltskin is all that he desires ("Revenge Is Gonna Be Mine"). David and Snow offer to surrender Rumpelstiltskin to Hook in exchange for passage on his ship to Regina's castle. Regina visits Rumpelstiltskin, who is not affected by the wish, at his cell. Regina asks for his help in erasing the wish, but he refuses, telling her that he would rather gouge out his eyes with a rusty fork than sing. He then tells her to figure out a way in order to prove herself. In Oz, Zelena spies on their conversation and believes that Rumpelstiltskin might come to regret choosing Regina over her. She prepares a spell for Regina to end the Singing Spell, which she will take credit for ("Wicked Always Wins").

Snow and David confront Regina, and the Singing Spell seems to make Regina's magic ineffective against the Charmings ("Charmings vs. Evil Queen"), but Regina uses a magic box she had found (which contains Zelena's spell) to stop them from singing and sends them back to their castle. Upon their return, the Blue Fairy appears to Snow and David and informs them that the power of song was never meant to be used to defeat the Evil Queen, instead placing it in Emma's heart, where the Power of Song will help her win a major battle one day. The Blue Fairy tells them that Emma won't be alone.

In Storybrooke

As the wedding approaches, Emma is unable to decide on a dress, so Snow brings over the dress she wore at her wedding, which she found at the Pawn Shop. But just moments before Emma tries on the gown, it immediately turns black; they are surprised to see Fiona appear, having thought that Gold had killed her. Fiona demands that Emma turn over her heart, then taunts Emma about believing herself to be orphan, saying that she is still "weak" and hasn't really "grown up," adding that "[she's] still just the lonely little girl [she] always [was]." Fiona lets the women know that she plans to use an enormous amount of Black Fairy Dust to unleash another Dark Curse on Storybrooke at 6:00 PM, the same time as Emma and Hook's wedding. When they check the clock tower at Fiona's suggestion, they discover that Fiona had brought enough Black Fairy Dust to curse Storybrooke more than ten times over.

This prompts Regina and Zelena to come up with a plan to stop Fiona from crashing the wedding, while Emma informs Hook of her decision to face the Black Fairy before the wedding, and says goodbye in case she dies. Hook confronts Gold at the Pawn Shop for lying to everyone about Fiona. When Gold refuses to apologize, saying that he did it for the good of his family, Hook uses Dreamshade on Gold to knock him out, hoping to buy time for Emma to defeat Fiona. Fiona appears, prompting Hook to flee. At the Sheriff's station, Emma gets a sign of encouragement from Henry, but when Henry finds the recording of her singing, Emma says that it's nothing.

Hours later, Zelena helps Regina remember how to isolate the part of the potion that stops time, which they hope can buy them more time to stop Fiona. Unfortunately, just as they are about to enact the spell, Gold uses it on Emma's family. Emma goes to confront Fiona at the Mayor's office, but Fiona holds Emma's family hostage, save for Henry, along with Regina, Zelena, and Hook. Fiona taunts Emma by playing her the song from her childhood, which reminds her of a time when she was alone. Henry, upset that Emma has decided to turn over her heart to Fiona, throws his book in disgust, only to discover a page in the book that reveals that Emma's heart was gifted with the magic of song, placed there by The Blue Fairy. When Emma meets with Fiona, she rips out her heart but she cannot crush it. Henry rushes in to stop his mother, telling her that she has a song in her heart, which suddenly emboldens Emma as her music starts to strengthen her ("Emma's Theme"). This causes Fiona to try to kill Emma with a blast of Dark Magic, but she fails. Emma then uses her magic to free everyone. As Henry restores Emma's heart, Fiona tells her that they will still face each other in the Final Battle, and that it will be worse than anything she can possibly imagine.

The wedding commences on a rooftop overlooking Storybrooke. With Archie serving as their ordained minister, everyone watches Emma and Hook exchange vows and wedding rings. The residents then celebrate with a dance and festivities ("A Happy Beginning"), only to see the Black Fairy's Curse erupt from the face of the Clock Tower at the stroke of 6:00 PM, with black tendrils streaming out and engulfing Storybrooke. As Emma watches, she tells a worried Hook: "...wherever we end up, we're going to win."

Before she can close the deal, a military coup deposes President Petrenko, and the news reports she has been killed. Henderson rushes Martin out of their hotel as everyone else panics. Henderson stays behind and retrieves a hidden pistol. Soldiers led by ex-KGB agent Vorza quickly take over the hotel, preventing anyone else from leaving. Henderson easily evades capture, encountering Matt Gibbons, an American who is also there for the contract. The two discuss their theories of who is behind the coup, settling on General Lazar, a ruthless would-be dictator.

As Henderson scouts the hotel, he sees Martin return. She explains that she found Petrenko alive but wounded, and, not knowing where else to go, returned to the hotel, as the hospitals were under guard by rebel military forces. Henderson helps Martin hide Petrenko in the hotel, and he performs field surgery on her. Trained as a pediatrician, Petrenko asks where he learned his skills, but Henderson declines to answer. Lazar soon arrives at the hotel, drawn to its symbolic importance to his people and the camera crews there to cover the contract. Vorza assures him that Petrenko is dead and the hotel is secure. Henderson is forced to kill several soldiers to protect civilians and Petrenko, and Vorza eventually realizes she is there. Henderson knocks him unconscious before he can alert Lazar.

Petrenko says she must broadcast a message of hope to her people before Lazar can cement his leadership. As Martin cleans up their hotel room to hide evidence of Petrenko's existence, Henderson tails Lazar. Henderson realizes Gibbons is working for Lazar when he sees the two secretly meet, and he searches Gibbons' room. Gibbons surprises him and demands to know who he works for. Henderson eventually admits he is ex-CIA, though he claims to be plotting against Lazar with Vorza. He talks Gibbons into letting him meet Lazar. Before they can, the two run into Petrenko, who has just saved Martin from a rapist soldier. Vorza and several of his men also appear. Henderson admits he was lying, and Gibbons orders Vorza to kill them all.

Henderson holds off Vorza's men while Petrenko and Martin broadcast an inspirational message. While Henderson is busy fighting soldiers, Lazar, Gibbons, and Vorza arrive. but they are too late to stop Petrenko. Gibbons discourages Lazar from killing her, saying it will scare off future foreign investors. Vorza agrees, though he suggests they flee the country with what money they already have and take her hostage. When Gibbons objects to giving up their business prospects, Lazar kills him. Before Lazar can also kill Petrenko, Henderson arrives and challenges him to a sword duel – Lazar had previously executed a Petrenko loyalist with a sword. After Henderson wins, another Petrenko loyalist kills Vorza before he can shoot Henderson. With Lazar and Vorza dead, Petrenko restores order. Henderson and Martin leave together, and he promises to answer all her questions about his background.

Ellie's friends, Gretchen and Hannah, want her to join them in The Hunt, a scavenger hunt that involves traveling around the city all night. Katherine forbids it because The Hunt is the same time as the rehearsal dinner. This leads to a confrontation between Ellie and Katherine that ends with a magical hourglass being broken and the two switching bodies (The Hourglass).

They try to switch back but the magic only works when the hourglass is whole. Ellie suggests using the hourglass's twin as a replacement. Katherine reveals that she sold the hourglass's twin, a present from her late husband, to help pay for her catering business. The two decide that they have to pretend to be one another until the second magical hourglass can be found. Both think that the other's life is easier and each one is confident she will do a better job ("I Got This"). Ellie has to be interviewed by Danielle for Weddings Magazine about her upcoming ceremony. She relies on Katherine's assistant, Torrey, to answer most of the questions and fabricates a story of how she operates her business ("What You Got").

They inundate Ellie with questions who realizes that she doesn't know her brother that well. The officers jump to the worst possible conclusions, worrying the entire family ("Bring My Baby (Brother) Home"). Adam arrives with Fletcher after having convinced him to come home. "Katherine" tells Adam that the hourglass was a gift from Ellie's late father and he decides to put it on the list, seeing how important it is to her. Gretchen and Hannah ask "Ellie" to come back to the team and forgiveness for their hastiness. Ellie gives Katherine permission to go on The Hunt while she stays behind to fix the wedding.

Both of them worry about living in the other's body for the rest of their lives. Katherine tells Ellie to call off the wedding with Mike until they can fix this. Ellie delivers an impassioned speech about how difficult her family's lives have been since her father's death. It wasn't until Mike came into their lives that Katherine became happy once again. Once Ellie says "I love you", the hourglass begins to glow. Katherine and Ellie grab hold of the hourglass and affirm their love for each other, switching back to their original bodies.

Je-in is a mystery novel writer who chases after a serial killer with her longtime detective friend Rok-hwan. However, a love triangle kicks into gear when they come across Jason, an attractive and mysterious man with sharp probing skills.

Three armed men, dressed in red sports suits and disguised as villainous hockey players from the popular Soviet cartoon ''Puck! Puck!'', break into a bank in St Petersburg. They intimidate visitors and try to find the manager in order to obtain the keys to the bank safe. Unable to find him, the leader of the gang grabs a little girl and threatens to shoot her if the manager does not come to him in a few seconds. As a result, a man appears from the opposite side of the room, claiming to be the manager and wearing the manager's badge. The leader sends another member of the gang, nicknamed "Psycho", with the "manager" to the safe. They approach the door, and the man opens it. The bandit first roars in anger, not seeing a mountain of money in front of him, but later finds the money inside a separate depository for cash savings and gold. In his euphoria, the robber begins feverishly putting everything into a cart. He eventually notices that the manager's face does not match the photo on his badge. Having been exposed, the man attacks the robber and knocks him out.

Nervous because of the long absence of "Psycho", the gang leader sends the third member of the gang, "Buster", to see what is happening. "Buster" finds "Psycho" unconscious on the floor inside the safe room and tries to revive him, when the false manager appears from the shadows, subduing him. The mysterious man comes out of the vault and meets a bank guard. He introduces himself as Igor Grom, police major.

The film flashes back to the beginning of the robbery, showing Grom trying to withdraw money from an ATM, which takes away his credit card and goes out of order. While the robbers take visitors hostage and search for a manager, Grom calculates possible options for neutralizing the criminal gang, but realizes that an open confrontation with armed robbers would end badly either for himself or for some of the hostages. At this time, he notices the real bank manager creeping away and decides to impersonate him, taking his clothes and badge. After that, the action returns to the present time. The gang leader is trying to hide his panic as the situation spirals out of his control. Suddenly, a cart with the disarmed "Psycho" and "Buster" rolls up to him, and Major Grom emerges. The furious leader shoots at him with multiple weapons, but Grom manages to hide behind a wall near the same ATM he was using before, which conveniently returns his credit card. The robber continues to fire until he runs out of ammunition, then decides to retreat with the money he has been able to steal. Grom chases after him.

The gang leader jumps into a getaway car, which drives off just as Grom exits the bank. Arriving at an intersection, the car is smashed by a garbage truck. The driver is badly injured, but the leader manages to climb out and begins to run. Grom catches up to him, and the two begin to fight. Grom is overpowered, however, and the criminal runs up the stairs to the top of a building under construction. Grom gains on him by climbing onto the statue of Poseidon and jumping to the third floor. After an extended chase, the villain is apprehended.

Grom is celebrated on television for foiling the robbery.

Before the credits roll, a brief scene shows the Plague Doctor—Major Grom's nemesis from the comic series—lighting a match and throwing it to the ground, after which a bright flame flares up, creating a segue to the events of the full-length film.

After finding out about his tumor, Mike meets Miranda and his priorities in life change from his morbid preoccupation, to spending time with and learning about his new love interest. Soon after, Mike also meets his father; a figure that had been absent in his life until this point in time. Cynthia, his mother, objects to his father's sudden return, but becomes closer to him after learning that Mike has planned against getting surgery to remove his tumor: the only means of saving his life.

Mike becomes overwhelmed with the conflict between choosing to fulfill his wishes of ending his life versus his thoughts and feelings surrounding his new relationship with Miranda. These feelings lead Mike into making a spontaneous decision to run away with Miranda on a road-trip. After witnessing Miranda being struck by a car and suffering an unfortunate death whilst still on their trip together, Mike decides to get the surgery that will remove his tumor. Ultimately, Mike chooses life.

Jennifer Peterson (Danielle Taddei) is having a very rough week. She's been fired from a movie shoot, her manager just dropped her, and her boyfriend (Derek Mears) dumped her, but not before releasing a sex tape of them together. But Jennifer has decided to turn things around: she hatches a plot she calls 'Revenge Porn Revenge,' in which she plans to settle the score by filming a devastatingly elaborate video and posting it online, making herself famous in the process. But like everything else in her life lately, her revenge plot doesn't go according to plan, and a shocking trail of carnage is left in her wake.

Kepler 822, a research and drilling facility operated by Tian Industries at the bottom of the Mariana Trench, is struck by a strong earthquake. As part of the facility is destroyed by the quake, mechanical engineer Norah Price and her colleagues, Rodrigo Nagenda and Paul Abel, crawl through the wreckage to the escape pod bay. When they arrive, they discover all the escape pods were deployed by Captain Lucien, who stayed behind "because that's what captains do." Together, they reach a control base and find biologist Emily Haversham and engineer Liam Smith, who confirm that there is no contact with the surface. Lucien suggests using pressurized suits to walk one mile across the ocean floor to the Roebuck 641 station and use their escape pods. Norah is nervous, because they might die from the pressure or run out of oxygen. Lucien asks her to consider that they might live. Emily panics, because she has never been outside the station and doesn't even have a pressure suit. While assembling a pressure suit for Emily, Rodrigo finds a helmet with a hairline crack. There are no more helmets, so he makes a quick decision. They help Emily into her suit. As they descend in the cargo elevator, Rodrigo’s defective helmet implodes under the increasing water pressure. Rodrigo sacrificed himself, so Emily can live.

They see a distress beacon from one of the failed escape pods. When Smith and Paul prepare to rescue any survivors, Emily is disturbed that Smith, her boyfriend, is leaving her to go outside. Paul comforts her by giving her his plushie bunny, Little Paul, saying, "Take this bunny. I bequeath it to you. If he doesn't make it, I'll haunt you." Shocked, but mollified, Emily accepts the bunny. When Smith and Paul arrive at the damaged escape pod, they find a body in the rubble. A creature emerges from the corpse's back and attacks. Smith kills the creature and takes it inside. Emily examines the creature and realizes that it belongs to a previously undiscovered species. She theorizes that the rig drilled into a thermal pocket where these creatures live. This is confirmed by a previously-recorded 10 degree rise in the outside water temperature.

The five descend to the sea floor, but as they are walking, Kepler Station explodes, showering them in debris. Smith is hit, but Norah and Lucien save him. They arrive at the Midway Station access tunnel, where they charge their oxygen and clean their suits. However, Smith's oxygen scrubber was badly damaged by falling debris. On their way through the access tunnel, Paul is attacked by an unknown creature, dragged underwater, and killed. At Midway, Norah holds Paul's bunny and broods over Paul's death for a few minutes, until she is called to fix Smith's oxygen scrubber. She discovers that Smith's damaged oxygen pod will cause him to suffocate from the toxic fumes. Unwilling to leave another crew member behind, Norah, Lucien, and Emily agree to help Smith walk. The four set off across the ocean floor, but a humanoid creature appears and drags Smith into a cave. Lucien pulls Smith out, but is himself dragged into the cave; and then, pulled down a deep shaft with ever-increasing pressure. Risking implosion, Norah tries to rescue Lucien, but he lets go and sacrifices himself, so she can live.

Alone, Norah arrives at the abandoned Shepard Station. She rummages through Lucien's locker and finds a pentagram drawn on an old blueprint of the initial drilling site. Norah changes into an undamaged suit and continues toward Roebuck Station. Norah catches up with Emily and Smith, and helps drag the injured Smith along the sea floor. At Roebuck, they encounter a nest of the humanoid creatures suspended from the ceiling and attempt to sneak by. The sound of Emily's oxygen alarm awakens the creatures. Norah is partially-swallowed by a creature, but frees herself by firing her flare gun while inside its body. Freeing herself from the copse, she fires a second flare into the distance and sees the creatures are spawn of an ancient titanic creature, Cthulhu.

Inside the station, they reach the escape pod bay, but Norah discovers that only two of the pods are functional. Norah and Emily get the ailing Smith into a pod, but he insists the ladies go first, so he weakly fights them to take the last pod. Norah convinces Smith to get in the pod by giving him the bunny, saying, "Here, take this. Give it to his parents. Tell them he was my favorite pain in the ass." Smith agrees and they activate his pod. Emily notices the third pod is flashing red and is defective. She offers to stay with Norah and help her fix it. Norah forcefully persuades Emily to take the second pod and activates it. Meanwhile, Cthulhu has been attacking the Roebuck, while the smaller creatures pursue the two escape pods. Instead of repairing the third pod, Norah accepts her fate. She uses the remaining time to calculate a safe distance for Smith's and Emily's pods. As soon as the pods are out of the blast zone, she initiates an overload of the Roebuck's nuclear core, resulting in a massive explosion that kills her, Cthulhu, and the creatures. The escape pods safely reach the surface. Tian Industries refuses to cooperate with investigators regarding the events. Smith and Emily are sequestered from the press. Paul's plushie bunny is confiscated and taken into evidence. And Tian prepares to expand its drilling efforts.

In the alternate ending, after overloading the core, Norah makes her way to the damaged escape pod and rewires it, escaping just before the Roebuck explodes.

Pushpakumara launched his final rally in the run-up to the election campaign. Due to the lack of people at their meetings, the three brothers will be given a plan: When the people of Pushpakumara addressed him, he was bombed and stabbed to several places in the body. It was the plan and its responsibility was transferred to Walisundara, who won the election with a paltry margin of 3 votes.

The trio contributed to Pushpakumara's victory and rewarded with a small sum of Rs. 150. Then the trio were drawn to Walisundara. They took money from him and left for their hometown. As soon as they entered the village, they were captured by the villagers and ready to be punished for their robberies. They paid off all their theft losses before they were punished. The villagers finally got their preference because the trio were contesting the presidential election from the new party. Then parents brought to Colombo and have them comfort. Meanwhile, Karolis tries to get the girl he loves and the other two get angry. Karolis was able to win his girlfriend anyway.

In 1980, Kim Man-seob is a widowed father who works as a taxi driver in Seoul. One day, he overhears another taxi driver talking about a foreign client who has booked him for a trip worth 100,000 won (the Korean equivalent of 100 dollars); the client intends to travel to Gwangju for the day and return to Seoul before curfew. Man-seob rushes off to steal the client.

The client is Jürgen "Peter" Hinzpeter, a West German journalist who wishes to report on the increasing civil unrest in Gwangju. Due to strict censorship, foreign reporters are prohibited from entering the country. Peter pretends to be a missionary in order to enter South Korea. Man-seob meets Peter and lures him into his taxi before heading off to Gwangju.

The two men discover that all the roads leading to Gwangju are blocked and heavily guarded by soldiers. Man-seob tries to convince Peter that they should return to Seoul, but the latter refuses to pay the 100,000 won unless they reach Gwangju. They manage to enter the city after they lie about Peter being a businessman. In Gwangju, they find that all the shops are closed and the streets are deserted. Man-Seob dismisses the severity of the city's state as he believes that the recent riots were caused by students who only "go to school to protest" in part due to the news reporting misinformation. Peter begins to record his observations on his camera, and the two men meet a group of college students who are riding on a pickup truck. The leader of the group, Yong-pyo, invites Peter aboard. They also befriend English-speaking student, Jae-sik. Man-seob decides to turn back, reluctant to have his taxi damaged in the riots. Along the way, he takes pity on an old woman looking for her son and she leads him to the local hospital. The woman's son turns out to be Yong-pyo, who is in the hospital with minor injuries. Peter and the college students scold Man-seob for his selfishness and refuse to let Peter pay him until he fulfills the agreed trip.

Man-seob agrees to take Peter and Jae-sik (now acting as translator) through Gwangju. Local protesters welcome the foreign reporter and greet the trio with food and gifts. Peter films violent riots and witnesses soldiers beating protesters. Plainclothed Defense Security Command (DSC) officers(presumed DSC 505th Defense Security Unit) see him filming and move to arrest him. The three men evade capture. That evening, Man-seob's taxi breaks down and they are met by Tae-soo, one of the local taxi drivers. Tae-soo tows the taxi to his shop for overnight repair. Man-seob becomes distressed as his young daughter is home alone and he is unable to contact her as Gwangju's phone lines have been cut. Tae-soo lets the men stay at his house for the night.

During dinner, they hear an explosion and discover that the television station has been bombed. They head there and Peter films the turmoil. The officers recognize Peter and chase the three men; Jae-sik is captured, but before he is taken away, he yells for Peter to share the footage with the world. Man-seob is assaulted by the leader of the Plainclothes DSC Officers, who accuses the driver of being a communist. Peter rescues Man-seob and the pair run back to Tae-soo's house.

At dawn, Tae-soo gives Man-seob fake Gwangju license plates as the soldiers are now searching for a Seoul taxi. Alone, Man-seob drives to the nearby town of Suncheon, where he overhears reports of the events in Gwangju; the media falsely claims that the chaos was caused by "rogue groups and rioters". He is overwhelmed with guilt and drives back to the hospital in Gwangju to find Peter in shock and Tae-soo crying over Jae-sik's corpse. He reminds Peter of his promise to show the world what is happening in South Korea and encourages him to continue filming.

They film a street where soldiers are mercilessly shooting at civilians. Man-seob and the other taxi drivers use their vehicles to barricade the soldiers from further harming the civilians. The soldiers continue shooting, and the two men arrive at a road blocked by soldiers. Man-seob states that he is taking a foreign businessman away from the turmoil. A young soldier searches the car and finds the license plates from Seoul. However, he remains silent on the discovery and lets them go. The soldiers then receive orders not to let any foreigners out, prompting them to chase the duo and shoot at them.

The pair are rescued by the local taxi drivers, who ram into the military vehicles to distract the soldiers. The taxi drivers are presumably killed in the chase, and Tae-soo ultimately sacrifices himself to allow Man-seob and Peter to escape. The two men make it to the airport, where they bid each other an emotional farewell. Peter asks Man-seob for his name and phone number as he wishes to return to South Korea to visit. Man-seob hesitates but then writes his name and phone number in Peter's notebook. Peter leaves the country safely.

Peter shares the footage with his superiors and the news is spread all over the world. He searches for "Kim Sa-bok", only to be told that the latter had provided a false name and phone number. In Seoul, Man-seob happily reunites with his daughter.

Twenty-three years later, Peter receives an award in South Korea for his report on the Gwangju Uprising. In his speech, he expresses his gratitude to "Kim Sa-bok" and hopes to see him again someday. Man-seob, still a taxi driver, reads a newspaper article about Peter's speech and achievements including his words of gratitude towards him. Man-seob then murmurs that he is more grateful to Peter and that he misses him too.

The epilogue states that Peter tried to search for the taxi driver who took him through Gwangju, but he died in 2016 before they could meet again. The film ends with footage of the real Peter, who gives his thanks to "Kim Sa-bok".

After a montage of photographs reveal that a young boy has died from exposure to toxic waste spilled by a company called NTX, the child's father bids goodbye to his wife's corpse, and heads for the Kupper-Dietz Building, a luxurious tower containing offices and laboratories owned by NTX. As the working day concludes, businesswomen Mary Ann Marshall and Renni are the last two daytime employees to leave the skyscraper, but on their way out they discover that all of the exits are sealed, and that all of the telephones are dead.

While searching for aid, the pair spot an intruder, and rush to the security room, which they find abandoned, with signs of a violent struggle evident. The two are then attacked by the dead boy's father; Renni is killed, but Mary Ann escapes by falling into an elevator, which brings her up to one of the tower's unfinished condominiums. There, she meets John Doe, a corporate spy who has been secretly living in the building in order to steal industrial secrets from NTX. While John goes to investigate Mary Ann's claims of there being a killer on the loose, Mary Ann, after another close encounter with the murderer, heads up to the penthouse apartment to seek aid from Harold Manley, the head of NTX; Mary Ann instead finds Manley dead, with newspaper articles about NTX stabbed into his chest.

Mary Ann reunites with John, who had stumbled onto the bodies of a pair of murdered guards, and together the two go looking for the building's remaining watchman, finding him just as he is fatally bludgeoned by the killer, who they narrowly evade. After John's arm is broken in a subsequent run-in with the maniac, he and Mary Ann separate, with Mary Ann going into hiding in the parking garage. When the killer finds her, he and Mary Ann engage in a vehicular chase, during which the murderer's car begins leaking fuel. John, who had been drawn to the garage by the noise, sets the spilled gas on fire, which blows the killer's car up after he crashes it into Mary Ann's.

When the building comes out of automatic lockdown at 6:00am, John slips away. Mary Ann is treated by paramedics and questioned by the police, and returns home, where she is greeted by John.

In the first act, attorney J. G. Utterson is visiting with friends outside a London vicarage. The vicar, Reverend Edward Leigh, relates a story about how he intervened when he saw a girl trampled by a man named Edward Hyde. Utterson is dismayed to hear the name Edward Hyde, because his friend and client, Dr. Henry Jekyll, recently made a new will that gives his estate to a mysterious friend named Edward Hyde. After the vicar leaves, Dr. Lanyon arrives. Utterson asks Lanyon if he knows Hyde, but he does not; he and Jekyll have become more distant recently due to scientific disagreements. Jekyll, who lives next door to the vicarage, passes by on his way to see a patient. Utterson expresses his concern about Jekyll's will, but Jekyll refuses to consider changing it.

After Jekyll and Utterson leave, Lanyon speaks to the vicar's daughter, Alice Leigh, who admits to being in love with Jekyll. Alice sees that Lanyon does not approve, and she asks Jekyll about it when he returns. He says she would not understand and begins talking about the dual presence of good and evil in men. Suddenly, Jekyll feels "the change approaching" and runs home. Before he reaches his door, he transforms into Hyde in view of the audience, but not Alice, who has gone to the other end of the stage. Hyde menaces Alice, who calls for her father. The vicar comes out of the vicarage and is clubbed with a stick by Hyde. Hyde runs away; Jekyll returns and asks who has attacked them. With his dying breath, the vicar says it was Hyde.

In the second act, Inspector Newcomen shows Utterson part of the walking stick that Hyde used to kill Howell. Utterson recognizes it as one he gave to Jekyll. Newcomen vows to find the killer, and asks to interview Alice, who has been staying with Utterson since the murder. Jekyll visits Utterson with a letter from Hyde, claiming he has departed. When Jekyll leaves, Utterson's assistant, Mr. Guest, points out that the handwriting on the letter is very similar to Jekyll's.

When Utterson leaves, Jekyll returns and delivers a monologue confessing that he is the murderer. After a brief conversation with Alice, Jekyll leaves. Utterson and Newcomen return, saying they play to lay a trap for Hyde. Alice insists on going with them. As they wait outside the vicarage, they see Hyde approaching Jekyll's house. He is talking to himself about his enjoyment of hurting women and children, and his hatred of Jekyll. When Utterson confronts him, Hyde rushes into Jekyll's house. When Utterson, Newcomen, and Alice pursue him, they find Jekyll instead.

In the third act, Utterson and the police discuss their failure to catch Hyde. One of Jekyll's servants, Poole, says Hyde is allowed free access to Jekyll's house. Alice overhears this and is distraught to learn that Jekyll has helped her father's killer. Alice resolves to confront Jekyll about this. In the act's final scene, Lanyon waits at home with drugs from Jekyll's laboratory, retrieved on written instructions from Jekyll. Hyde arrives to retrieve the drugs. He mixes them with water and drinks the resulting potion in front of Lanyon, after which he transforms into Jekyll.

The final act begins four months later. Lanyon has died of shock and Jekyll is refusing to see Utterson or Alice. Alice is still angry that Jekyll is believed to have helped Hyde. Poole visits to say he fears Jekyll has been murdered. Someone is secluded in Jekyll's laboratory, claiming to be him and communicating mostly through written notes, but Poole thinks it is someone else. Utterson and Alice agree to accompany Poole to confront the person in Jekyll's laboratory.

In the laboratory, Jekyll gives a monologue explaining that he can no longer find the ingredients for his potion and therefore will soon revert to Hyde, without the ability to transform back. Alice comes to the laboratory and sees that Jekyll appears ill. He tells her they will marry when he is better, but when she leaves he monologues that he will die soon, then he transforms into Hyde. When Utterson and Poole come to the laboratory, Hyde commits suicide by drinking poison, declaring that he has also killed Jekyll.

The story is set right after the events of "Kamp Krusty". Santa's Little Helper follows the trail of Homer and Marge's clothes, leading him to Bart's treehouse, where they were having sex. Chief Wiggum and Officer Lou arrive at the scene, having been called by Ned. Homer tells them the kids are fine, before showing them a postcard from Kamp Krusty. The scene switches to the camp, where everything is getting ruined by Bart and the other bullies.

The traumatized kids return on a bus, guided by Krusty. The kids are taken to therapy and the therapist says to Marge to keep an eye on Bart. Back at home, Bart fakes PTSD and interrupts Homer and Marge's sexual activity. The next day, Bart stays at home watching TV. With Bart on their bed and being unable to have fun with Marge, Homer goes to work early and finds out what happens when the Power Plant is empty.

Bart has a nightmare of the camp when they went on the canoe and asks Lisa for help. Homer gets more productive than ever and gets a raise by Mr. Burns while Bart and Lisa go to the amusement park where they cut the line thanks to the trauma they suffered from.

Homer refuses to have sex with Marge and she thinks they need the help of a therapist too who suggests taking the kids back to Kamp Krusty, which was transformed into an adult retreat called Klub Krusty. Bart and Lisa find a cabin they have visited after escaping with the canoe and remember another kid with them named Charlie who fell in the rapids and never came back up. Marge and Homer have some fun at the club while Bart and Lisa report Charlie missing to the club security which reveals he's alive, and also that Charlie is not a kid but a little person.

During the credits, shots of Homer Simpson clones are shown at work as a Barry White-like singer is heard singing in the background about not wanting to be intimate with the object of the song.

The story is done as a documentary about the rise and the fall of Bart Simpson's career on the Springfield Elementary School basketball team. It all started with a joke that got him in the longest detention in history, where he started shooting baskets in the detention room wastebasket. Bart became a starter and then a star, reveling in his abilities while also letting his success go to his head. Homer Simpson became the coach of the team, and Bart started disrespecting Homer, leading to ugly clashes between them. Fat Tony noticed this and came up with a plan to enrich both himself and Bart via Bart's unwitting point shaving practices (the mobsters would tell Bart how much they wanted the SES team to win by, and Bart didn't know this was based on a betting line that the mob would then cover and make a lot of cash from).

At the City Champions Final Four, Bart won the game after Homer choked him. However, Bart found out how much money Fat Tony was making, meaning that Fat Tony wanted him to lose the finals. The town hated him for that.

In the game, Milhouse (who was Fat Tony's other point shaving asset) tried to keep Bart from hitting the game-winning shot but failed. Lisa then used her journalism skills to get Fat Tony to back off his plan to murder Bart. When the mob boss was Bart's age, he was an incompetent player for the only city league team where he could play for: an all-girls' team.

Homer and Marge then tell the documentary crew that Bart's heyday didn't last much longer, as the minute he moved up to a league he was overshadowed by a tall kid on the court. The status of Lisa and Milhouse is outlined (along with a cameo by Stephen Curry), and the narrator of the story reveals himself to be Nelson's dad, Eddie Muntz, who gives Nelson sleeves for his vest and stays long enough just for a picture of the family to be taken before he disappears again.

Two recently deceased frogs meet in heaven and say they are proud to have died for a noble cause: so Bart can dissect them in science class for the pursuit of knowledge. However, they are horrified and angry when Bart laughingly mutilates the body he left behind. Marge despairs over Bart's terrible report card (she says they can't even hang it on the fridge in the garage). Several Springfield parents go to parenting expert Dr. Clarity Hoffman-Roth's lecture for advice. Following her recommendation of giving kids trophies for achieving either laughably simple tasks or doing absolutely nothing, Homer opens a trophy store. However, Bart volunteers to be the store's assistant and, after his shoddy work is revealed, Homer loses his temper and rants at length about what a "pathetic loser" Bart is and always will be, unaware that a devastated Bart has heard what he said.

Meanwhile, Lisa lashes out against the Trophy Culture – not least because her genuine achievements earn smaller trophies than the non-achievements of classmates like Ralph Wiggum. Bart visits Abe and finds out that Abe's father (who isn't shown but was mentioned in "The Winter of His Content" as being alive and estranged from Abe) was a widely respected expert on child abuse in his day, and passed down a rare watch to Abe, which Abe then gives to Bart. Soon, Lisa causes a different movement by getting another parenting expert, Dr. Fenton Pooltoy, to speak to Springfield's parents, who says that too much praise creates millennials - in his words, "a generation of soft, entitled narcissists who drop out of college to become DJs", and his no trophies or false praise approach is embraced by the parents of Springfield. However, Lisa's plan backfires because Marge oversimplified it as "All trophies are bad" and throws out of all of Lisa's genuinely earned awards.

Meanwhile, Homer's trophy business success comes to a crashing halt, and a happy Bart flaunts Abe's watch to Homer, who always wanted the watch as a symbol of Abe's respect that he never received (he also wants to use it to finish his self-published novel), but Bart loses the watch in the forest near Springfield and badly injures Milhouse while failing to retrieve it. Abe tells Bart they're going to be profiled for a little read magazine's issue on families, and Bart can't tell Abe the truth because it would kill him.

When Homer takes his trophies to a pawn shop, he finds the watch (which Milhouse ''did'' find, but being mad at Bart for dropping stones at him, he pawned it), planning to rub the recovery in Bart's face, but when he sees Bart is broken and tearful over the loss, he feels bad and gives the watch back to his son. Marge praises Homer's actions, and he says he's going with his gut - or specifically his GUT (Give Up Trying) approach. After their picture is taken for the magazine, Bart then breaks the watch by accident and Abe tries to choke him to death.

The episode ends with Trophy Culture hitting its nadir at the NBA Draft where NBA Commissioner Adam Silver announces that the kid with the most trophies has been selected: Ralph Wiggum, much to Lisa's chagrin. Homer then sings Joe Esposito's "You're the Best Around" over the credits.

The story is based on events that occurred in Uruguay prior to the national elections of 2004. Two journalists are contacted by an informant who offers them evidence of crimes that took place during the Uruguayan dictatorship of 1973–1985 under the so-called Operación Zanahoria ("Operation Carrot").

U.S. Secretary of State Charlotte Field learns from President Chambers, a former television actor, that he does not plan on running for a second term as he is trying to break into the movie industry. Seeing an opportunity, she convinces him to endorse her as a potential presidential candidate.

Meanwhile, New York City journalist Fred Flarsky learns that the newspaper he works for has been bought by Parker Wembley, a wealthy media mogul whose politics directly oppose Fred's. Furious, he promptly quits but cannot find another job. Depressed, he turns to his more successful best friend Lance, who takes him to a charity fundraising event where Boyz II Men are performing. Coincidentally, Charlotte is also there. She and Fred recognize each other, as she was his babysitter and secret crush when they were young. While they catch up, Wembley interrupts them to plan a meeting with Charlotte, leading Fred to loudly condemn Wembley before he storms off and falls down a flight of stairs in front of everyone.

Charlotte reads some of Fred's columns and decides to hire him as a speechwriter, over the protests of her chief of staff, Maggie. Fred voices his skepticism of Charlotte's true commitment to important issues, but takes the job. At a world leaders' summit, Charlotte is forced to revise a speech about an environmental campaign to appease industrialists. When Fred calls her out on abandoning her morals (threatening to quit then and there if she goes through with the changed speech), she changes her mind and gives the original speech, which is enthusiastically received.

As the two continue to spend time together under the pretext of Fred learning more about Charlotte for his writing, they grow closer. When they survive a revolution in Manila, they begin a relationship. When Maggie finds out, she warns Charlotte and Fred that the public will never accept them as a couple. When Chambers, under pressure from Wembley, orders Charlotte to remove her plans to preserve the trees, she lets off steam by getting high on ecstasy with Fred. A hostage crisis occurs and, still under the drug's influence, Charlotte has a surprisingly frank talk with the captors and frees the hostage.

Even though the incident increases Charlotte's approval rating, Chambers is livid when she chooses to ignore his orders and call him out. He confronts her in his office alongside Wembley, who has a vested interest in removing the trees as part of his plan. The two blackmail her with a hacked video from Fred's webcam. The hacked video depicts Fred discussing his and Charlotte's relationship and Fred further masturbating to a video of one of her speeches, the hacked video culminating in Fred ejaculating on his own face. Charlotte shows Fred the hacked video and informs him that she has agreed to the ultimatum, and that she wants to introduce him and their relationship publicly once his image is cleaned up. Disappointed and unwilling to change, he refuses and they break up.

Back in New York, Fred talks with Lance. Lance comes out to Fred as a Republican and a Christian. Fred's reaction is initially racist, not believing that African Americans can be Republican, and assuming that the only reason Lance wears a cross is as a black cultural symbol. Lance tells him that he has been too stubborn with his principles and refusal to consider other people's needs and opinions. Fred decides to accede to Charlotte's ideas.

However, during her announcement to run for president in 2020, Charlotte changes her mind and opts for her original plan, also revealing the blackmail from Wembley and Chambers and describing the content of the video before its release. The video is released and Fred is nicknamed "cum guy" by the news media. Fred searches for Charlotte and finds her waiting at his apartment. They admit that they love each other, and meet the press outside where Charlotte introduces Fred as her boyfriend, with the public surprisingly being supportive of them. In 2021, the couple marry and Charlotte is sworn in as the first female president with Fred as "First Mister", him having taken her last name.

''The Burning Glass'' tells the story of Christopher Terriford, a British scientist who discovers a new method of capturing solar energy. This "burning glass" can greatly benefit mankind, but it can also be used to wipe out distant targets with devastating flame, so like the atomic bomb it holds the potential to destroy mankind. Because of this, Terriford won't give his discovery to the British Government, instead depositing half the formula in a bank and the other half in his wife's memory.

Terriford and the British Prime Minister debate at the intersection of morality, patriotism, conscience, and necessity. Terriford – who wishes he could forget his discovery, but can't – tells the Prime Minister that the time has come for science to withhold knowledge as "we haven't developed at the same time our spiritual or our political qualities... We are like a monstrous giant... There can be a blasphemy of applied science. We have reached that point."

Then dark forces – perhaps Russian agents, but identified only as "The Enemy" – kidnap Terriford. But Terriford refuses to talk and is released. Meanwhile, his wife and associate have undertaken to recreate the burning glass in his absence. His associate, remorseful for having played an inadvertent part in provoking Terriford's kidnapping, fearful of being kidnapped next (and that he is too weak to guard the secret he now knows), and in love with Terriford's wife, commits suicide.

Malan is a jobless 25 year-old youth who spends his days playing cricket with friends. He suffers from an irrational fear of ghosts and retreats to the safety of his home after sunset. His fear is so great he prefers to sleep with his widowed mother Geetha and have her accompany him to the bathroom at night, and also at the eating time. This creates major annoyance in the household, including Malan's brother Gamini, sister-in-law Nirmala and their children.

One night, Malan meets a girl named Shaini and flirts to gain her attraction, but did not reveal it. Shaini also had some attraction to Malan and she started to flirt around him as well. Meanwhile, One day, Malan and his friends are forced to abandon their usual cricket ground and find a new one; one friend select an abandoned ground which is rumored to be haunted. A bizarre weather change scares them away. Malan brings home his cricket stumps, which have been stained with blood from a buried corpse in the ground. He focuses on wooing Shaini, where she asked Malan to come to a dinner. But as he is fear for ghosts, he went to the hotel with all his family. At the dinner, however, Malan's mother agreed on their relationship and fixed a date to meet Shaini's family. In the following days, his mother and sister-in-law are witness to several paranormal phenomena at night; prominently a ghost haunting the hallways. On consulting am exorcist, they perform 3 rituals to ascertain if the house is haunted:

1. They keep a coconut on a Rangoli and pray with chants. The coconut rotates on its own.

2. They keep an egg on a pan and see whether it turns color or explode it.

3. They leave a lit lamp and two drops of blood and leave the house. A ghost of a woman appears before them and licks the blood.

Scared senseless, Geeta and Nirmala hire two priests to rid their home of the ghost. The priests, however, are conmen, and escape with their lives. That night, the ghost possesses Malan, who begins acting increasingly effeminate, alienating himself from Shaini and wearing women's clothes and jewelry. His family angrily confronts him, when it is revealed that there are actually three ghosts who have possessed him: a violent woman named Maya, a Tamil Hindu Man named Ramu, and a learning-disabled boy. With the possession, Malan kills a woman by hanging and a thug Wasantha by engraving him with his van. Malan's family ask a Buddhist monk, who successfully drives the spirit away from Malan's body. The ghost of the woman, trapped, reveals her story.

Maya/Mayantha is a transgender woman who was disowned by her father because of her behaviour. She is offered shelter by a kind Tamil man Ramu, who has a son with a disability. Regretting that she couldn't become a doctor as she intended, she adopts another young trans person named Madhuri/Madhawi and works hard to support her financially. When Madhuri leaves to study medicine abroad, Maya buys a plot of land where Madhuri intended to construct a hospital for the poor. That ground is unlawfully taken by Minister Ashoka. Maya angrily confronts the minister, who cunningly kills her. He also kills Ramu and his son. Before she died, she vowed to kill minister, his wife, and his henchmen Shantha. The bodies are then buried in Maya's own ground.

The Buddhist monk sympathizes with her, but remains duty-bound and traps her. After hearing her story, Malan is touched; risking the danger, he allows Maya to possess him once again. Malan/Maya confronts the minister, and disposes of his henchmen gruesomely. The minister seeks refuge in a Kali temple which Maya is forbidden from; but she asks the deity for justice and manages to chase him inside the temple. The three spirits combined kill the minister. A few years later, Malan has constructed the hospital for Dr. Madhuri as per Maya's wishes. It is revealed that Maya exists symbiotically in Malan's body to help him out when the need rises.
