Retired government operative and lawyer Ansel Gibbs is called out of retirement to take a post in the president's cabinet. During the intervening years, which have been spent between the quiet seclusion of his farm in Montana and living an anonymous life in Europe, Gibbs has become sceptical about the nature of Western civilisation, and has developed a feeling of uncertainty about life itself. As such, his re-entrance into public life marks the beginning of an existential crisis.

The novel begins with the announcement at a news conference of his decision to return, after which Gibbs embarks on a journey down to Washington DC for the necessary senate hearings. While on the journey, Gibbs begins to quietly wonder whether he is able to return to public life, and whether public life and service are even possible. Upon arriving in Washington he is met by his young, intelligent daughter, Anne, and his ambitious advisor, Porter Hoye. They are joined by the family's hostess, socialite Louise von Louwe, and by Robin Tripp, a charismatic young television host who is courting Anne. The arrival of Tripp precipitates a further crisis in the mind of Gibbs, who has long felt responsible for the suicide of the young man's father, an old friend named Rudy Tripp. Gibbs is haunted by the memory of the grieving widow's report that the arrival of a notice of dismissal, sent by Gibbs but delivered by an aide, was seen as a betrayal by Rudy, ‘the last, terrible straw’.

This guilt is magnified for Gibbs when he begins to suspect that Robin Tripp holds him responsible for the death of his father. Tripp is the driving force behind a particularly uncomfortable televised debate between Gibbs and Senator Edward Farwell, a strongly conservative politician who self-righteously opposes the appointment of Gibbs. Upon being questioned heatedly by Farwell over the suicide of Rudy Tripp, Gibbs responds by honestly relaying the story and his own sense of guilt on national television, bypassing both his audience and Farwell with the concluding words to their host: ‘Yours is the verdict I want, Tripp’.

The would-be cabinet member also faces inquest from his old mentor and tutor in theology, Henry Kuykendall, who, in his old age, has taken to running a mission to the poor in Harlem. The novel is, as Dale Brown writes, ‘a series of trials’: ‘Gibbs is on trial with the senate, with his daughter, with Robin Tripp, with Kuykendall, and with Farwell. Most of all, however, he is trying himself.’ In the wake of his television appearance, which is seen as a disaster by his advisors, Gibbs visits Sylvia Tripp to seek forgiveness and clarity over the death of her husband, and his own involvement in it. There he receives a sort of absolution, with the revelation that Rudy's mounting sense of self-loathing and personal failure, accumulated over many years, was the real cause for his suicide.

In 1820s France, 20 year old poet Lucien de Rubempré travels from his provincial home in Angoulême to Paris after a contentious affair with a local society lady. He is sensitive, idealistic, handsome and determined to force the literary world to take notice. Contrary to his expectations, however, he discovers that he must make ends meet by writing scurrilous theater reviews and ends up beholden to the world of low-brow journalism. At the behest of his crass boss, Étienne Lousteau, Lucien succumbs entirely to bribery and cronyism, achieving wealth and standing only at the cost of his artistic integrity and former friendships. In a last attempt to free himself from the all-consuming filth he is undone by his greatest weakness, his desire to transcend his low origins and illegitimate birth by buying a title of nobility. This too proves illusory and finally he is defeated and socially destroyed by the prevailing "fake news" cycle, returning home to defeat and obscurity.

Dr. Mercer Boley and his daughter Diana are traveling in New Mexico for his scientific research. They are shown a skeleton of a large creature with wings and horns at a place called Uncle Willie's Desert Museum. Dr. Boley dismisses it as a hoax assembled from unrelated bones, but Uncle Willie insists that he found the bones together as a whole skeleton. While Uncle Willie tells them tales of demons from American Indian folklore, an unseen force attacks the building, causing a rafter to collapse and kill the proprietor, and starting a fire that consumes the building. Dr. Boley and Diana escape with the horned skull and take it to a motel.

The next morning they report to the police and return to the site of the fire. There they find a group of young men, James Reeger and four others, riding motorcycles around the ruins. The police arrest them on suspicion of causing the fire, against the advice of the Boleys.

That night, two gargoyles, appearing much smaller than the skeleton and without horns or wings, invade the motel room to retrieve the skull. Dr. Boley chases them to the road where one is struck and killed by a truck and the other gets away with the skull. Boley takes the body back to the room. The alcoholic hotelier, Mrs. Parks, complains but Diana tries to assure her that it was only a family argument.

Diana returns to the police station and pleads for the bikers' innocence but the deputy says only a judge can release them after charges have been filed. She tells Reeger about the dead gargoyle but he mockingly suggests that she and her father are "smoking" something. She does not mention it to the police even though it would prove their innocence, apparently because her father wants it for study. She returns to the motel.

Two slightly larger gargoyles return to recover the gargoyle body, but the Boleys escape with it through the window and stow it in their station wagon. The gargoyles rip the passenger door off and kidnap Diana, then overturn the car rendering Dr. Boley unconscious. The gargoyles take Diana to their cave, where they have many eggs. She meets the gargoyle leader, who is larger and has wings and horns like the skeleton. He tells Diana that they have only been alive for a few weeks after a 500-year incubation, and that humans have repeatedly killed them off in the past, but he vows that they will survive this time. He has several of Dr. Boley's books, apparently also taken from the car, and insists that Diana read to him. As she reads a passage that describes a mythical encounter between a human female and a demon who molests her, the leader approaches from behind and startles her, but assures her that he has "no need for humans."

Dr. Boley convinces the police chief to release the bikers and search for Diana, and Reeger joins them. Mrs. Parks and her helper drive away to get assistance, but the search party later finds her pickup truck empty and bloodied, and her body hanging upside down from a telephone pole with no sign of the helper.

The gargoyle leader has a queen, who also has wings and speaks, and she informs him that "men, horses, and dogs" are approaching the cave, and that many more eggs will hatch the next day. The leader orders that the humans "must be stopped in the desert." Over a dozen gargoyles charge the humans and both sides have casualties.

The leader takes Dr. Boley to the cave and vows "this is the end of your age, the beginning of mine." The queen appears jealous of the leader's attention to Diana, and she leads Dr. Boley to his daughter and lets them escape. Reeger douses the eggs with gasoline but is attacked by several gargoyles before he can get away. While surrounded, he lights the fuel and sacrifices himself, thus also killing what appear to be the only remaining gargoyle soldiers.

When the leader realizes that his war is once again lost, Dr. Boley bludgeons the queen's wing with a rock so she cannot fly, and so the leader must carry her away. He flies away with her to create a new nest somewhere.

The story starts in 16th century Ferrara in Italy. Don Juan Belvidero, the spoiled young son of wealthy nobleman, Bartolommeo Belvidero is having dinner with friends in the family palace, when he is told by a servant that his father is dying. He goes to his father's room. There his father tells him to fetch a phial of liquid from one of the drawers. His father orders Juan to rub this liquid over his body after he is dead, saying that it will restore him to life, and make him young again. Bartolommeo then dies. Juan does not immediately obey his father. After informing his guests of his father's death and seeing them off, he returns to his dead father's room, and puts one drop of the liquid from the phial on his father's eye. The eye comes back to life. After his initial shock, Don Juan kills his father's eye.

Having inherited his father's wealth, Juan continues his life of debauchery. He also secretly becomes an atheist. In his 60s, he settles down in Andalusia in Spain, and marries Dona Elvira, and they have a son, Felipe. He also chooses the Abbot of San-Lucar to be the confessor of his wife and son, and Felipe is raised to be religiously devout. On Juan's death bed, he tells his son Felipe about the phial of liquid, claiming that it is holy water. He orders his son to pour it over his body after he is dead. Felipe follows these orders, first pouring the liquid on his father's head, then on one of his arms. Juan's now living arm then grasps Felipe by the throat. A shocked Felipe faints, and the phial drops to the floor and breaks and all the rest of the liquid is lost. People rush into the room when they hear the noise, and see Don Juan's body with the head and one arm bought back to life and youth, and the rest still dead. They proclaim it to be a miracle.

The Abbot of San-Lucar claims that the miracle means that Don Juan is to be canonised as a saint. The half living body of Don Juan is then taken to the abbey church, and put into a reliquary. The Abbot celebrates a mass for Don Juan which is attended by many people. The angry head of Don Juan shouts blasphemies during the mass, detaches itself from the body, and then kills the Abbot by biting deeply into his head.

In 1931 New York City, a group of aliens called Chronicoms steal the faces of three police officers and kill a contact from a local speakeasy. Meanwhile, having just arrived in the past to stop the Chronicoms from changing history, S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Jemma Simmons introduces Director Alphonso "Mack" Mackenzie and Agent Daisy Johnson to an LMD version of the late former Director Phil Coulson, who struggles with his existence and two years' worth of adventures that S.H.I.E.L.D. went through that he was not around for. Taking on period appropriate disguises, Johnson and Agent Deke Shaw investigate the faceless officers and are attacked by the Chronicoms, though they overpower one and take him back to their mobile headquarters, ''Zephyr One''. Concurrently, Coulson and Mack investigate the speakeasy since it will become a future S.H.I.E.L.D. asset and meet its owner, Ernest "Hazard" Koenig, who reveals that the police officers were providing security for a function in honor of Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt.

The S.H.I.E.L.D. agents go undercover to protect the future president, believing the Chronicoms will target him since he will found S.H.I.E.L.D.'s predecessor, the Strategic Scientific Reserve, in the 1940s. However, when Simmons overloads the captive Chronicom's mind, she forces it to reveal their actual target: Koenig's employee, Wilfred "Freddy" Malick, father of future Hydra leader, Gideon Malick. Realizing that they have to save Hydra to ensure S.H.I.E.L.D.'s future, the team rescues Freddy from the Chronicoms just after he received a job to deliver a package from a Hydra contact, though they get separated in the process. Aboard ''Zephyr One'', S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Chronicom ally, Enoch, helps heal Agent Melinda May from injuries she sustained during the team's previous mission, but she wakes up earlier than expected and evades him.

After a domestic bombing campaign against corporations involved in the Vietnam War goes awry in 1972, a leftist cell led by lovers Bobby Desoto and Mary Whittaker goes underground. Mary and Bobby split up and invent new lives for themselves. Mary changes her name, dyes her hair, and moves to Oregon to join a feminist collective. When her identity is discovered, she flees across the country, first to a lesbian commune in upstate New York, and then to Southern California. She ends up as Louise, a placid housewife in a suburb of Seattle raising a son, Jason, by herself after her husband dies in an accident. Jason grows to become an insular, intelligent teenager and aficionado of retro music.

In a parallel plot, Bobby has become Nash Davis, an indifferent owner of an alternative bookstore in Seattle in the late 1990s who convenes ironic leftist discussion groups that never actually undertake the actions they plan. Nash is friends with a chronically ill man named Henry, who has all the symptoms of Agent Orange exposure despite never having served in Vietnam. Nash becomes romantically involved with a fiery young activist named Miranda, but loses her to Josh, an unassuming, calculating young man who, despite his apparent suburban normalcy, has a penchant for computer hacking to aid leftist causes. Josh executes a hack against a mega-corporation that ends up landing him a job there, which he takes for the sake of infiltrating them from the inside (or so he tells Miranda). Eventually, as Josh rises in the corporate ladder, his intentions are no longer clear, and Miranda leaves him. Meanwhile, Jason discovers his mom's secret, as well as Bobby's new identity, and confronts her. The reader learns at this point that a bomb planted by Mary in the home of an executive of a munitions company accidentally killed a maid instead. Jason gives her Bobby's information, and she meets with him for the first time since they went underground. She tells him that she has resolved to turn herself in, but Bobby urges her to turn him in to the authorities to reduce her sentence. She leaves without explicitly accepting his offer, but a few days later Bobby is arrested.

A stage is set for a performance of ''King Lear''. However the actor-manager has something else in mind - for his cast to do a rehearsed reading of ''Moby Dick''.

The play depicts the generational clashes within a prosperous English family, all concerning the matrimonial wishes of the rising generation and their parents' opposition to it. Act I is set in 1860; Act 2 in 1885; Act 3 in 1912. The following is from ''The Times'''s summary of the plot in its review of the first performance.

:In 1860 John Rhead proposes marriage to Rose Sibley, and objections raised by the Sibley family. John Rhead is go-ahead and a believer in the new iron ships. What, say the Sibleys, is the matter with English oak? Dolts! cries Rhead. Faddists! retort the Sibleys. But the marriage, nevertheless, takes place. […]

:In 1885 John Rhead is about to be made a baronet. His faith in iron has brought him a fortune. But his daughter Emily is now marriageable, and up comes the old difficulty. Papa wishes Emily to marry a peer; but Emily loves Arthur Preece, a young engineer. This young fellow has discovered a new process for making steel; but John Rhead, who believed in iron (at 25), does not (at 50) believe in steel. Anyhow, he bullies Emily into marrying the peer.

:In 1912, Sir John [is] a doddering old grandfather; Lady Rhead, the sweetest of grandmothers; Emily, now the widowed Lady Monkhurst, and the smartest of matrons. Once more the eternal marriage question. Emily's daughter Muriel has engaged herself to young Dick Sibley, another young engineer; and Emily cannot bear it, because Dick is going to Canada, and she dreads separation from her daughter. But Muriel is quite a different sort of daughter from the daughters of the two previous generations. They were tearful, obedient, timid. She intends to have her own way as a mere matter of course. When opposed, she is quite prepared to argue it out – is, in fact, the contemporary young woman from head to foot. Fortunately she gets her way without inflicting pain on her elders after all. For Emily's old admirer, Arthur Preece (now M.P., head of the Labour Party, and already a little disillusioned with it and politics generally), reappears and claims Emily for his own. She no longer needs her daughter, who is free to marry Dick, and all ends happily with grandpapa and grandmamma having a cosy chat over the fire.

Koshi Nagumo, a first year middle school student who finds himself homeless, penniless, and without relatives to care for him after the house fire. As he lies on the street, he gets picked up to become the "dorm mother" of a dormitory full of troubled women's university students.

The film opens with a man at home looking at drawings. He leaves his family in the house and commits suicide outside. One of the drawings is revealed to say "Kill yourself or I kill them all."

In a speech, Dr. Layton (Mark Rolston) introduces the concept of A9913, a memory-enhancing drug created by Hallorann Pharmaceuticals. The drug is able to give individuals full memory recall, allowing them to fully relive their past memories. He meets with Dr. Jerrems (William Mapother), who has been working on the A9913 drug.

Eighteen young adults, including Anna (Virginia Gardner), and Den (Nathan Kress) have been recruited to take part in the clinical trial. Dr. Jerrems informs them that it is a Phase 3 trial for A9913 and that all of the participants will be residing in the building until the trial is completed so that they can be monitored.

Anna meets participants Kristen (Kirby Bliss Blanton) and Scratch (Ryan Higa). The drugs take effect in Marcus (Mark Furze) and Kristen next, who sees herself talking with another participant. She is shocked when the events begin to play out in the present and likens the experience to déjà vu. Scratch suggests that Kristen is remembering the future, since time is not linear. Jerrems is told that co-researcher Dr. Rasmussen was found dead; he was the man at the start of the film.

During the night, Anna finds the bedroom door is locked, and watches as the girls inside cough and begin to die. The window is painted with blood and reads "5260." However, it is revealed that this was another case of 'remembering the future' Anna finds herself in the present again. She attempts to leave and reveals that she saw everyone die in her vision. Curtis, a nurse who is in charge of monitoring the subjects, injects her with a sedative and Jerrems explains that she is experiencing a rare side effect. He leaves her strapped to a gurney while the effects wear off.

Marcus, Kristen, and Den see Curtis die and escape the building, joined by Scratch. Anna has a vision of freeing herself and another vision of Marcus dead. Den, Marcus, and Kristen return to the building to find Anna, leaving behind Scratch. The sleeping participants wake after smelling something from the vents. They begin to cough violently, as they did in Anna's vision. Anna breaks free and the gang informs her that the participants have been gassed with mustard gas. When Kristen goes to the bathroom, she goes missing.

Scratch finds an entrance into the building and discovers a drawing of himself with hands around his neck. The trio find Jerrems' office. A past video of Rasmussen and Jerrems plays on the computer, in which they are questioning a man named Pascal, a man who mysteriously acknowledges Den watching the video. Anna and Marcus realize that the bloody numbers were not "5260," but "5 2 GO," as Anna, Den, Kristen, Marcus and Scratch are the last five people alive while the mustard gas has killed the others. Scratch mixes together several vials of drugs and injects himself.

The group finds Jerrems in a locked room but he refuses to let them in. He tells them that Pascal was the first participant to have visions, and so was used to test new variations of the drug. The drug was revealed to have a cumulative effect, and Pascal began to stop experiencing time as linear. He had a psychotic break and is now killing the participants in order to pressure Jerrems into committing suicide. Scratch has a vision of himself being stabbed, twice. As such, he is attacked by someone and stabbed. Marcus realizes that Pascal is likely to kill everyone in order to erase all traces of the drug. Thinking Anna's visions can't come true if she can't see them happening, he hits her and Den attacks him in retaliation. Marcus stabs himself during the fight and dies.

Anna gets outside by jumping off the roof into a snowbank and goes to the car, where she finds Scratch's and Kristen's frozen bodies. She realizes that her vision of Kristen dying in the bathroom was wrong. She confronts Jerrems about the discrepancy and argues that the visions are not fate but merely self-fulfilling prophecies, which Jerrems agrees with. She then injects herself with the drug that Scratch had.

Den finds Pascal and attacks him. Pascal stabs Den prior to throwing him into the pool, where Anna later saves him. Dr. Layton arrives and unlocks the room Jerrems has been hiding in. Jerrems notices liquid on the floor; Layton drops his cigar and the room goes up in flames as Pascal walks away. Anna and Den make it outside. Pascal is watching them from the roof as sirens blare in the background.

In 1875, ten years after the passing of his mother, Violet Holmes, 21-year-old Sherlock Holmes returns to the island of Cordona alongside his companion Jon. Settling in his family's former residence, the dilapidated Stonewood Manor, Holmes encounters the eccentric gallerist Verner Vogel, who insinuates that Violet Holmes' demise may have undisclosed details. Previously assuming the cause of death to be tuberculosis, Holmes begins to investigate loose ends regarding the case. Tracing a former family friend, who is recently murdered, Holmes begins to piece together events through his patchy childhood memories and figures out that Violet was not, contrary to his brother Mycroft's assertion, suffering from tuberculosis but was in fact stricken with severe mental distress following the death of her husband Siger. A resident physician, a Swiss doctor named Otto Richter oversees Violet's therapy and employs a controversial and experimental approach by immersing Violet in the original conditions that led to her breakdown. Mycroft, using his contacts and influence, conducts a background check on the doctor but the search reveals little of use other than academic credentials and an estranged brother named Klaus.

After Sherlock unlocks his mother's private museum of debunked, bizarre artefacts, he recalls an incident whereby Otto Richter is harshly berated by Mycroft, who later appears to have testified against the doctor on grounds of the latter's medical malpractice. As Holmes progressively regains his suppressed memories, his companion Jon is revealed to be an imaginary friend known only to Holmes brothers and communicable only to the younger Sherlock. Further revelations cause adverse effects on Jon, who pleads Sherlock not to pursue his mission any longer and move on. During the investigation of a murder in a masked ball at the mansion of a prominent member of the island community, Holmes encounters an elderly police officer, who provides Sherlock with the missing information to conclude his quest.

In a climactic flashback, a ten-year-old Sherlock Holmes walks his ailing mother through their garden; Violet becomes violently agitated at her son's reminder that Siger Holmes is long dead and has a psychotic episode where she attempts to drown Sherlock in the garden pond, explaining Sherlock's severe hydrophobia. The player's choice of reasoning determines the ending; if the conclusion is that Sherlock (with the unwitting prompting of Jon) had tampered with Violet's medication, she is shown to suffer an allergic reaction, dying despite Otto Richter's attempted tracheotomy. Another possibility is that Richter euthanises the hopeless Violet and is arrested at gunpoint by Mycroft. In all cases, Mycroft returns and confronts his shaken brother. Sherlock and Jon have a bitter or tragic farewell depending on whether Sherlock blames Jon for his mother's death and/or for hiding the truth from him all along. Ultimately, Jon dissipates.

Bidding farewell to his mother one last time, Holmes is confronted with Verner Vogel, whom he has deduced to be Klaus Richter, the younger brother of Otto Richter. Despite Holmes' explicit animosity to him, Vogel claims that by spurring him on to confront his past, he has turned Sherlock from a Sisyphus to an Ozymandias, allowing him to cast aside his fixations and setting him out unto the world. Ultimately, depending on Sherlock's choices, he is either exiled from Cordona for the death of his mother or out of ennui. After a short narration of his entry to the University of Cambridge, his interest in chemistry and his occupation in criminal investigation, the game concludes with the rendering of the very first encounter between Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson in the mortuary of Bath Hospital in the opening chapter of ''A Study in Scarlet'', with Sherlock shocked at the exact resemblance of his new flatmate to his lifelong companion.

After the Axis-led Kozara Offensive, the majority of the local Serb population ends up in Ustaše and Nazi German concentration camps in the Independent State of Croatia.

Families are marched towards cattle cars. Ten-year old Dara Ilić marches alongside her older brother Jovo and asks him why others are not being rounded up as well when they look the same. A woman marching in the column of prisoners carries her crying baby and makes eye contact with one of the young Croatian peasant women working the fields. She decides to leave the baby with her before returning to the column.

At a train station adorned with the Nazi German flag, Father Miroslav Filipović separates the sick and elderly from the rest, who are forced into the cattle cars. Dara watches as those who are left behind are shot and killed by Filipović. With no information about the whereabouts of her father, the train transports Dara, her mother and two brothers to the Jasenovac concentration camp. In an undisclosed location nearby, Dara's father Mile is tasked with removing and disposing of dead bodies.

That night at the camp, the guards devise a game of musical chairs as entertainment for visiting German Nazi officers. The prisoner who loses each round is sliced open or bludgeoned by a hammer, which Dara witnesses.

As families are separated, Dara's mother struggles and refuses to hand over her older son. They are both shot and killed by an Ustaše. Dara is left to take care of her younger brother as they are sent to a special camp for women and children. She makes it her personal mission and goal to insure the survival of her younger brother.

With the help of a Jewish prisoner, Blankica, Dara plots a path to escape.

On the eve of a visit from the king of a neighboring country, Dora Dovetail dies of overwork with King Fred's final button in her hand, trying to finish King Fred's latest costume. Fred, despite feeling embarrassed and guilty, declines to visit her family, leading them to become disillusioned with him, especially Dora's daughter, Daisy. This leads to a fight between Daisy and her friend Bert Beamish, Major Beamish's son when Daisy Dovetail insults Fred.

A shepherd from the Marshlands begs Fred to rid the country of the Ickabog, and Fred, wishing to prove himself, agrees and rides North. An accident in the marshes results in Major Beamish getting shot and killed by Flapoon, one of Fred's advisors. Seeking to take control of the kingdom and become richer, Spittleworth, Flapoon's ally, pretends that Beamish was killed by the Ickabog, fooling Fred and the rest of the army.

On their return, three soldiers and Herringbone, the Chief Advisor, object to the story. Herringbone is murdered and the three soldiers are imprisoned. A heavy tax is imposed to pay for an "Ickabog Defence Brigade", causing widespread poverty, which Fred is oblivious to, as he is scared into staying within the capital. Spittleworth, now Chief Advisor, has the Dovetails kidnapped, with Dan Dovetail sent to prison, and forced to carve Ickabog feet. Daisy ends up in the brutal Ma Grunter's orphanage, where she befriends Martha, a Marshlander.

Years pass, with the tax doubling. Bert and his mother, Bertha, the king's head pastry chef, guess Spittleworth's plot after Bert discovers an Ickabog foot made by the now insane Dan Dovetail. Bertha attempts to reveal the plot to the king but is kidnapped and placed in the dungeons. Bert escapes the city as Major Roach leads soldiers to arrest him. Bert later meets Roderick Roach, who tells him that Spittleworth killed Major Roach and imprisoned his family upon his failure to capture Bert. The two are captured by Basher John, Ma Grunter's henchman, and taken to the orphanage, where Bert reunites with Daisy and meets Martha. Meanwhile, Bertha Beamish transforms the dungeon into a kitchen with the help of the prisoners, while helping Dan regain his sanity.

The four children escape the orphanage and hike to the Marshlands, led by Martha. They plan to sway the soldiers of the Ickabog Defence Brigade but realize that the Brigade has gone south for the winter. Succumbing to the cold, they fall unconscious, and the real Ickabog carries them to its cave. They speak to it, and the Ickabog reveals that from it a batch of Ickabogs will be "bornded". As the feelings experienced by the dying parent Ickabog influence its newborn brood, the Ickabog plans to eat the four during the bornding, so that its children will become man-eaters, to take revenge on the humans, who have caused the near-extinction of the Ickabog race.

Daisy persuades the Ickabog not to eat them, but to reveal itself to the people and befriend them. The group marches on Jeroboam, with the Ickabog handing out flowers. The citizens rally around the Ickabog, and they march on Chouxville, where Fred is giving a ball. Basher John is alerted to the march and rides to warn Spittleworth, who refuses to believe him and has him arrested. Spittleworth prepares to investigate with Flapoon, but they are confronted by the prisoners, who have armed themselves and escaped the dungeons. They escape, leaving Fred to face the angry mob.

As the Ickabog approaches Chouxville, Spittleworth confronts it with the Brigade. The Ickabog's belly splits in the confrontation as the bornding begins, and Flapoon attempts to shoot it. Bert jumps in front of the bullet, and it hits his father's medal, saving him. The first Ickaboggle to be Bornded kills Flapoon, due to being Bornded in fear of his gun. However, the second Ickaboggle is Bornded kind since Daisy comforts the dying Ickabog. As Spittleworth attempts to escape, he is captured by Bert and Roderick.

Spittleworth and several others, including Fred, are arrested for their crimes. The second-born Ickabog helps found a city in the Marshlands. To redeem himself, Fred helps the first-born Ickabog become more mellow by taking care of it and dies soon after its Bornding, which spawns happy Ickaboggles. Dan and Bertha marry, as do Roderick and Martha. A new town is formed in the place of the Marshlands. The kingdom lives happily ever after.

Anna is a young girl from a poor but honorable home in Denmark. When her father finds in a newspaper an ad for a well-paid job as a company lady in a mansion in London, she goes to the interview in a Copenhagen hotel and is happy to get the job. Her childhood friend and now fiancé Georg is somewhat worried but Anna dismisses his distrust and travels to England. On arrival, to Anna's horror, she is taken into a luxury brothel.

Georg and the police manage to board the ship just before it leaves and after a brief but exciting fight Anna is finally freed and can return home.

The plot of the drama takes place in the near future, where Krasiński used recent contemporary events, such as the French Revolution, and the ensuing power struggle between the Jacobins and other factions as inspiration and extrapolating a number of social trends, describing a fictional pan-European revolution against the Christian aristocracy. The protagonist of the drama, Count Henry (in Polish, Henryk), is a conflicted poet, who finds himself leading, together with his fellow aristocrats, a defense of the Holy Trinity castle, against revolutionary forces professing democratic and atheist ideals, commanded by a leader named Pancras (in Polish, Pankracy). In the end, both sides are portrayed as a failure: while the revolutionaries take the castle, their leader increasingly doubts the righteous of their cause, and the drama ends with him seeing the vision of the Christianity being triumphant after all.

The play is divided into four parts and thirty-two scenes. The first two parts of the work build up the character of Count Henry, focusing on his private life as a husband, father, and artist; while the next two are focused on large revolutionary struggle.

This film is described in 1911 trade publications as a story of adventure and romance set in the Eskimos' "land of eternal ice". The motion picture, according to reviews and plot descriptions in those publications, opened with scenes of daily activity among a small village of natives led by old Chief Opetek. The tribe later conducts its annual ceremony of bidding farewell or ''adieu'' to the sun as the vast territory enters the dark season of winter. Zak, a young man from another distant tribe, is visiting Opetek to participate in the event and to see the chief's beautiful daughter Ananak, whom he intends to marry.

After the sun ceremony, Zak departs on his dog sled to return to his own people. On his journey home over the ice, he soon finds a "half-frozen" white man, a trapper. Zak takes the unconscious stranger back to Opetek's family, and the man awakens under the care of Ananak and her mother Tikatak. Zak now prepares to depart for his home once again, and in keeping with their social customs, he and Ananak say good-bye by smelling the sleeves of one another's sealskin jackets and then rubbing noses. The recovering white trapper observes the couple's interaction, and after Zak leaves he talks to Ananak and ridicules the Eskimo way of showing affection, telling her that men and women in his culture display their affections in much different ways. Ananak over the dark months of winter finds herself increasingly attracted to the hunter. With the change in seasons and the approach of warmer, brighter days, and while her parents are away, Ananak elopes with the white man, who soon deserts her. Zak, now traveling by kayak, manages to track her down and save her from drowning herself to end her shame. He then takes Ananak back home, where they marry after the tribe's medicine man uses sacred oils to cleanse her of the trapper's "evil spirits". The couple then depart for Zak's village, where together they can begin a new life.

Ken Keeler (Tom Powers), a prominent attorney, believes along with other leading citizens of Fairview that the families of "The Patch", a migrant shantytown on the outskirts of the town, should not be encouraged to stay. When a proposal is made that the migrant children should be allowed to attend school in the town, a citizens' meeting goes into an uproar. The town doctor warns that with the lack of sanitation and prevalence of disease in the migrant camp, the whole town will be infected by such a move. Ken's daughter Sallie (Colleen Townsend), a member of a church youth group that conducts classes for the migrants and fights for their rights, insists that the town should reach out and help their poorer neighbors like good Christians, but hers is a lone voice. The citizens' committee appoints Ken to find a solution and to report back in two weeks.

Meanwhile, a new migrant family has arrived in The Patch. The mother, Ma Ashby (Sarah Padden), is hopeful about her husband finding work and the family becoming part of the community, but they are shunned by the townsfolk and taken advantage of by the owner of the dilapidated shack. The Ashby family attempts to attend church on Sunday, but they are stared at by the more well-dressed townsfolk and when they finally reach the steps, the church door is closed on them.

Inside the church, Ken struggles with his conscience, hearing both the minister’s sermon about helping one’s neighbor and his neighbors’ invective against the migrants. After the service, Ken accepts a ride from Christian missionary Dave Harley (Regis Toomey), who takes him on a trip of discovery to show him what is really happening in America of 1950. He shows Ken the squalid shantytown and also the acres of shiny new housing developments built for the huge numbers of people seeking to put down roots. These modern developments lack any sign of a church, and so are losing touch with the Christian values on which America was founded. Back at the Keeler home, Ken's son Kenny (Larry Olsen) invites his new friend Nathaniel Ashby (Jimmy Hunt) to join his baseball team, but his teammates make fun of the migrant boy and Kenny's older brother Malcolm (Larry Carr) throws Nathaniel off their premises. When Ken finds out he is livid, and goes to apologize to the Ashby family. Seeing the squalor in which they live, he wants to give them a check, but Ma Ashby refuses to take charity. Instead, she asks him to join them at their Sunday church meeting in the shantytown, and Ken and Sallie attend.

Ken reports back to the citizens' committee that instead of throwing out the migrants, they should help them. Sallie listens with pride as Ken sets forth his plan of action. Even though the town is slowly warming to Ken's ideas, the final scene shows the Ashby family on the move again, hoping that the next town they come to will be welcoming. Ma Ashby's voice is heard intoning Psalm 23, "The Lord is my Shepherd", as the film fades out.

Connemara, 1845. Colmán Sharkey lives with his wife and infant son on the Atlantic coast where they subsist on the fish he catches with his brother Sean and the potatoes grown on the family farm. He is persuaded to take on Patsy Kelly, who has recently left the Royal Navy under suspicious circumstances, as a farmhand and fisherman. Word has spread of a blight affecting the potato crop as far as the Midlands, leading to widespread famine. The blight soon reaches Connemara, where the potato crops wither in the fields. The local landlord increases rents and sends two armed men to Colmán's home to collect. Patsy disarms one of them but is pressured by Colmán into relinquishing the gun as Colmán requests a meeting with the landlord.

At the landlord's estate, Colmán unsuccessfully tries to persuade him not to raise rents due to the famine devastating the country. Patsy wanders off where he encounters the two collection agents and the landlord's daughter. He murders all three before being discovered by Colmán, who is shocked by what he finds and notices a frightened young girl has witnessed the scene. Patsy kills the landlord, leading to a confrontation with the Sharkey brothers in which Sean is fatally stabbed. Enraged, Colmán brutally beats Patsy and leaves him for dead.

Two years pass during which Colmán loses his wife and son to the effects of the famine. Living in a cave by the shore and haunted by visions of his family, he attempts suicide by drowning but is compelled to surface. Later, he discovers a sick young girl – Kitty – in what used to be his cottage. He nurses her back to health and recognises her as the girl who witnessed Patsy's murder spree. Locals desperate for Colmán's catch stab him in a confrontation at the cottage. As he recovers, he teaches Kitty how to row, catch fish and treat wounds. Time passes and the bond between Colmán and Kitty deepens. Kitty despairs at not being able to help the starving people she encounters but Colmán reminds her that their own meagre food supply is dependent on access to the sea and they will be unable to fish when winter comes. Kitty strikes up a friendship with a local girl and her mother, who Colmán quietly persuades to adopt Kitty and take her to the mainland to ensure her survival once winter arrives.

It is then revealed that Patsy survived Colmán's assault and has framed him for the landlord's murder. Allied with a British agent and a police constable, he tracks down Colmán to his old cottage where he recognises Kitty and takes her hostage as the agent arrests and beats Colmán. When the agent is distracted by Kitty's cries, Colmán beats him to death and subdues the police constable, taking his gun in the process. He confronts Patsy, who threatens to kill Kitty. She stabs him in the leg using a knife previously gifted to her by Colmán, allowing him to strangle Patsy to death while a traumatised Kitty suffers flashbacks to the murders she witnessed. As Patsy dies, Colmán and Kitty embrace.

Natsuna Keyaki, a post-secondary student living in Tokyo, is contacted by her old friend Itsuki Kusunoki from Kumamoto through an on-line game platform, who she hasn't heard from for 4 years. Unfortunately, whilst Itsuki is responding to Natsuna's reply, the platform abruptly shuts down, leaving them with no way to communicate with each other.

Feeling a responsibility to her friend, she leaves for Kumamoto to see her. When she arrives at Itsuki's last known address, however, she finds that it is now an empty plot of land. Natsuna calls on the nearest police station, meeting with constable Masayoshi Maezono. Masayoshi and Natsuna head to the town hall to ask for information, but the latter is unable to give out any information, citing privacy legislation. Walking back from town hall, Masayoshi and Natsuna are accosted by Izumi Chiba, a lower secondary student who Masayoshi is acquainted with. Izumi takes Natsuna to a pathway by the canal to meet her friends, reasoning they could help her find Itsuki. Whilst Izumi's friends turn out not to know who Itsuki is, Natsuna stays and has some fun with them, smashing watermelons and accidentally falling into the canal.

Izumi takes Natsuna to her family's shop, which doubles as a house, and introduces Natsuna to her father Shigezo Chiba. After taking a bath, Natsuna is invited to drink by Shigezo; she can't hold her liquour. Izumi's mother, Sayuri Chiba, introduces herself to Natsuna, and says she knows of an Itsuki Kusunoki. However, she doesn't know where they are living now; their previous dwelling-place was severely damaged by the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes.

Natsuna is dropped off at her hotel room by the Chibas, and whilst sleeping, dreams of her drawing together with Itsuki in their in-game bodies. The dream quickly turns into a nightmare as Itsuki crumbles and the earthquakes strike, and Natsuna awakes and cries. In the morning, Natsuna heads to a pier to clear her head as Izumi joins her with two noodle bowls; she has another flash-back to her time with Itsuki. Natsuna is snapped out of her daydream by an old lady who owns a candy store; she mistook Natsuna for another girl, and tells her that a girl used to paint at the very same spot. What's more, she has one of her paintings - which the girl said was of her hometown. Natsuna and Izumi suspect that this girl is actually Itsuki, but the lady does not know where she's gone.

Natsuna heads back to the Chibas' place to contemplate this along with Izumi, when the latter tells her that she's romantically interested in Masayoshi. Izumi tells her about the things that have changed since the earthquakes, prompting Natsuna to hug her as Shigezo walks in with another bottle of liquour; Shigezo mistakes this gesture for yuri. Out of the corner of her eye, Izumi notices a signature on the painting; the painter girl is indeed Itsuki. Sayuri recognises the view in the painting as being that of Sakitsu, a fishing village in Amakusa. As she rides the bus there, Natsuna contemplates how she just stopped communicating with Itsuki shortly after the earthquakes; rationalising she was busy with school after telling her she was well.

In Sakitsu, Natsuna asks around, finding a spot that she recognises from Itsuki's paintings. There, she happens to run into Haru Kusunoki, Itsuki's grandmother. Haru says that Itsuki is well, but that Itsuki has had problems adapting to things after the earthquakes, and that she rarely wants to see anyone. However, Haru does point her towards a wharf where Itsuki likes to linger. On the wharf, Natsuna encounters a grey-haired girl drawing the evening landscape. The girl says she is not Itsuki, but that she is her school-mate. Natsuna tells her about a promise they'd made together to draw Kumamoto landscapes, and the girl says Itsuki is in France studying art, and that she'd be back by summer's end. Natsuna asks the girl to tell Itsuki about her promise, and leaves.

Natsuna prepares to leave for Tokyo as the Chibas meet her to drop her off at Kumamoto Airport. On the way to the airport, she reflects how fun her stay in Kumamoto had turned out to be, and as they are met by Masayoshi at the airport to send her off, Izumi tearfully hugs Natsuna good-bye. As she checks in for her flight, Natsuna realises that the girl at the wharf must have been Itsuki, and runs out of the airport - getting Masayoshi to drive her back towards Sakitsu. On the highway, Masayoshi's DeLorean breaks down, leaving Natsuna to run for it. At the wharf, she finds the girl there and apologises for not noticing earlier. The girl continues to deny that she is Itsuki, until Natsuna affirms their friendship and that she wanted to say so in person. Itsuki says that she hurt her hand in the earthquake, and couldn't resume drawing until she'd come to Sakitsu to convalesce at her grandmother's place. Itsuki thought she hated her because their comms had cut off. Natsuna assures her that it is not the case, and Itsuki asks for them to draw together - as they tearfully reunite.

Setting

''Ara Fell'' takes place on the floating continent of Ara Fell, which features forests, villages, castles, and other fantasy settings on several inter-connected floating islands. Centuries prior to the start of the game, a great war between elves and vampires nearly led to the elves' defeat, until they solidified themselves into stone, thus preventing the vampires from feasting upon them, or turning them into vampires as well. The vampires have continued to stagnate since the end of the war, while still coming into conflict with humans, dwarves, and the other races of Ara Fell.

Story

The game begins with 16-year old Lita and her friend Adrian exploring a series of ruins in search of a magic elvish ring. During their search, Lita is separated from Adrian and discovers the ring upon an altar. After putting it on she begins seeing a ghostly figure guide her throughout the ruins, until she becomes too exhausted to continue her escape. She is found in the morning by Adrian and her father, where she is taken back to her home in the village of Aloria and scolded. Lita reunites with Adrian, and they learn that nearly all of the town pets have gone missing in recent days. They discover that the pets are being held in a secret cavern under the house of a local man named Arger, who confesses to having vampire sympathies before being defeated by Adrian and Lita. Lita is considered an archery prodigy, and enters into the local competition. She rises through the competition to face the reigning champion, and on the verge of defeat invokes the elvish power within the ring and becomes the new champion.

She informs Lita that her ring possesses the power to dispel the curse, and to do so she must travel to the nearby Ruins of Arei in vampire territory to do so. Upon reuniting with Adrian, he and the entire village are turned into stone by the power of the ring. In a fit of despair, she is approached by the local bard, Doren, who takes her to his home, revealing that a small number were saved by the visiting sorcerers, including himself, Lita's father, and the village elder. The group agrees to accompany Lita to the ruins, but are attacked in the night by a group of vampires, leaving Lita's father and the elder bitten and mortally wounded. Doran remains behind to see to their treatment while Lita is accompanied by Seri Kesu, one of the visiting sorcerers, to the ruins. Together, they defeat the vampire clan inside, and Lita is given a second elven artifact by Asari, gaining the ability to free individuals from the stone curse. Asari also reveals it was her who turned the village to stone in hopes of encouraging Lita, and lifts the curse on them as well.

Lita returns to her hometown to see that all of the villagers have been freed from the stone curse with no memory of the event. Adrian rejoins her party, as well as Doran, and the four of them make their way to Seri Kesu's home, Temple Orlian, which hold relics that will allow them to enter a vampire stronghold. The way to Orlian has been closed by order of Maranda, the regent of Castle Atana. The party makes their way to the Castle to ask for approval to travel, and it is revealed to the player that Maranda has become a vampire familiar, and is poisoning the King to maintain control. After a brief fight, the party is knocked unconscious and thrown into a prison beneath the castle, while Seri Kesu is tortured by the vampire lord Za'im. Lita, Adrian, and Doran escape from prison and free Seri Kesu, defeating a wyvern in the process and receiving the third elven artifact. The party rushes back to the Castle and defeats Za'im by using Lita's elven power to kill him. Maranda transforms into a soul-absorbing shadow creature, and is killed by the party, allowing them to save the King from his poisoning.

In an introductory sequence entitled ''Beating Heart'' that plays like a side-scrolling beat 'em up, the teenage protagonist fights their way from the subway station and through the streets of the unnamed city in which they live until they reach a hospital where they are attacked by a hooded figure with glowing red eyes.

Set in the 1980s, the game follows the Kid, the teenager from the introduction, who feels stuck in their childhood home in "sleepy suburbia" as they wait for their life to "move forward". One night, as the Kid wanders the streets of their unnamed city looking for anything to "make my heart skip a beat again", they stumble across an abandoned factory that was built "long before" the protagonist was born and now houses an arcade. Wondering if they found a place where they can fit in, they start playing a horizontally scrolling space shooter entitled "Out of the Void". Feeling disconnected at school, the Kid's mind frequently returns to the arcade where they were "on an asteroid somewhere fighting space invaders." The only person they notice in school is "her", a "punk rocker from the south district" whose freedom the Kid admires. The story then cuts to the Kid playing an arcade racing game entitled "The Runaway". During "The Runaway"'s second stage, the Kid explains that they've started to spend every night at the arcade, where every game they mastered made them "stronger" and "more confident". One evening, the Kid reminisces about their childhood and how "anything was possible" back then before "everyone got brainwashed" in high school. They then mention how as a kid, "shadows seem darker and more terrifying" yet "more exciting" at the same time. The game then transitions to a ninja video game called "Shadowplay". That night, while walking to the arcade, the Kid reveals that their parents split up due to an incident involving the Kid's father.

They also mention that night was when "everything changed" at the arcade before 198X transitions into a role-playing video game entitled "Kill Screen" where the player has to defeat 3 dragons in order to solve a maze before fighting the unwinnable SHODAN-like final boss. Afterwards the Kid is seen sitting outside the arcade in the rain mentioning everything "was still there" but that "nothing was the same". Characters from 198X's various games begin to materialize around the Kid, with them concluding that the "game was not over".

"An unseen assassin is killing off members of the family one by one, but in a way that defies cinematic expectations. ''A Chronicle of Corpses'' imagines the horror movie as seen through a telescope, making full use of artfully composed long takes that reduce victims to insignificant pinpoints on the horizon.

The story is set in Tours in 1479. It starts with Marie de Saint-Vallier, an illegitimate daughter of Louis XI attending mass at Tours Cathedral with her much older husband, the Comte de Saint-Vallier. He falls asleep, and Marie's lover Georges d’Estouteville comes over to speak to her. He tells her that he will meet her that night in her home, by breaking in from the home of Cornelius Hoogworst who lives next door.

Cornelius Hoogworst is a wealthy silversmith and merchant who does business with the King and wealthy courtiers. He is an elderly miser who lives with his sister in a big house and is originally from Ghent. During his time in Tours, his home has been robbed three times, and each time his apprentices were blamed, and executed. This has made him feared and hated in Tours.

Georges then presents himself to Cornelius, and asks to become his apprentice. He is accepted with the help of a forged letter from another merchant in Ghent. He is given a room in Cornelius' home, and during the night escapes next door for a rendezvous with Marie. Whilst this happens Cornelius' home is again robbed of valuable jewelry. So the next morning, Georges is arrested, because Cornelius has noticed that he was absent from his room. When Marie learns of the arrest of her lover, she immediately arranges to see her father, the King.

Marie and her husband travel to the King's residence at Plessis-lez-Tours on the outskirts of Tours. When she is alone with her father, she tells him that Georges could not have been the thief, because he was with her. She also says that she does not love her husband and is scared of him. The King then arranges for her husband to be sent on a diplomatic trip to Venice. He also summons Cornelius, and tells him that he will visit his home immediately.

The King goes to Cornelius' home to investigate the robbery. He inspects the strong room, and find that the locks have not been forced.

Cornelius was also seen outside during the night, though he has no memory of this. The King's doctor, then tells them that the explanation is that Cornelius is a sleep walker, and almost certainly has been robbing and hiding his own valuables.

As a result of this, Georges is spared. Cornelius is now treated with suspicion by the King, but is not punished. However he lives in torment because of the missing valuables, and the fact that he has lost the King's favour. Three years later, Cornelius commits suicide, without having found out where he put the stolen treasures.

Ana asks Helen for her cut of the money. Helen reveals that Ana's cut has been donated to Vega's campaign, revealing the church is part of the illegal financing.

Based on testimonials from former regular cinema goers (including the writer Ignácio de Loyola Brandão) and extensive archival footage, the documentary presents the story of the movie theaters located between the São João and Ipiranga avenues, in downtown São Paulo.

Known as ''Cinelândia Paulistana'', this area held the largest concentration of cinemas in the city, including the Art-Palácio, the Metro, the Ipiranga, the Marabá, the Comodoro Cinerama, and reached its peak heyday in the 1950s and 1960s.

The urban decay of the city center in the 1970s and the emergence of the multiple-screen theaters often located in shopping malls and the home viewing on VHS in the 1980s reduced much of the allure of ''Cinelandia Paulistana'', which saw the closing of its several famous cinemas, while its fewer remaining theaters specializes in showing adult pornographic movies.

As the play begins Orpheus is trying to interpret a message that the horse is tapping out with his hoof. Eurydice expresses her jealousy for the supernatural nag who takes so much of her husband's time. Orpheus angrily replies that the horse brings him phrases from the unknown that are more astonishing than all the poems in the world. The poem the horse taps out for Orpheus reads "Madame Eurydice Reviendra Des Enfers" ("Madam Eurydice Will Come Back From Hell"). Orpheus enters the poem in a contest but the judges are infuriated because the initial letters of the words spell "MERDE".Oxenhandler, page 134-135

Ralph quickly sets about filming his own explorations of the neighborhood, ersatz music videos with his best friend, and in particular recording late-night television to see what sort of programming comes on after he goes to bed. Unbeknownst to Ralph, the blank VHS he has chosen to use is, in fact, his parents' wedding video. The film is largely composed of sketches parodying 1980s late-night television, in particular infomercials, porn, and public access television. One particularly surreal talk show features a woman who theorizes that increasing use of VHS cameras will alter people's perception of reality, and thus reality itself. Throughout, snippets of Ralph's parents' wedding are shown, juxtaposed against vignettes Ralph captures documenting the slow deterioration of their marriage, including arguments and apparent infidelity on the part of Ralph's father.

The untimely death of Franny Nicolet leaves behind her grieving husband, Theodore, and their two children. A minister, living in Myron, New England, Nicolet struggles on with the overwhelming tasks of raising his children and caring for his parishioners. When Clem Vail reports the distressed abscondment of his wife, Rooney, Nicolet drives off in search of her, and in hopes of ascertaining why she has fled her husband. His pursuit of her, however, opens up an opportunity for a local journalist, Will Poteat, to spread the malicious rumour that the parishioner and her pastor are engaged in a secret affair.

Nicolet's journey will take him down several avenues of self-discovery. The minister meets with his distant and disinterested father, Roy, with whom he haltingly attempts to ignite some form of familial relationship. The attempt proves to be a failure, though not a personal one, as ultimately the son will forgive the father, although the relationship remains dormant. Nicolet eventually finds Rooney, who has cloistered herself away in a retreat house in Muscadine, owned and operated by Lillian Flagg, a faith-healer and Christian mystic. Flagg's overtures to Nicolet on the topics of prayer and forgiveness prove to be a catalyst for change in the young minister's outlook, prompting a greater understanding about the inherent joy that lies beneath grief and suffering.

Running alongside the narrative of Nicolet's pursuit of Rooney is the tragic story of Irma Reinwasser. Having survived a Nazi concentration camp, Irma has found some semblance of ordinary life working as Nicolet's housekeeper. Her unguarded conversation with Poteat unwittingly opens the door for the newspaper man to spread the rumours regarding her employer's supposed affair among his parishioners – an outcome over which she has very little control and yet feels a great sense of culpability. Her life reaches its terrible conclusion in the novel as, wracked by uncontrollable guilt, she falls victim to a misfiring prank perpetrated by some boys who attend Nicolet's church. Despite their good intentions, their actions lead to a fire, by which Irma is tragically consumed.

The Chronicoms meet with their Predictor, Sibyl, to confirm that their latest plan to eliminate S.H.I.E.L.D. from history will succeed. Meanwhile, the agents land in 1955 near Area 51, a S.H.I.E.L.D. base currently working on Project Helius, an ion fusion reactor prototype. The agents kidnap high ranking agent Gerald Sharpe so the Phil Coulson LMD can impersonate him while Jemma Simmons impersonates S.H.I.E.L.D.'s then-current director, Peggy Carter, to locate Chronicom infiltrators. However, they unexpectedly run into Carter's former partner Daniel Sousa, who immediately outs them and has them detained. Concurrently, Alphonso "Mack" Mackenzie, Melinda May, Deke Shaw, and Inhuman agent Elena "Yo-Yo" Rodriguez attempt to interrogate Sharpe to find out more about Project Helius. Though he puts up resistance, he eventually reveals Helius cannot function without a powerful energy source, leading Deke to deduce that the Chronicoms plan to sacrifice one of their own to activate the weapon and destroy the base.

Agent Daisy Johnson arrives undercover and convinces Sousa to free her teammates just as a pair of Chronicoms enact their plan. May and Yo-Yo's first attempt to stop them fails after the former unexpectedly suffers a panic attack and the latter discovers her powers are not working. Recovering quickly once Area 51 is evacuated, they pursue one of the Chronicoms while Coulson battles the other. Daisy and Simmons improve a S.H.I.E.L.D. EMP device in time to disable Helius, along with the entire base, the Chronicoms, and Coulson. The other agents regroup at their mobile headquarters, ''Zephyr One'', while Sousa detains Coulson and Mack and Shaw pose as aliens to avoid changing history while returning Sharpe to the desert.

Following the events of "Alien Commies from the Future!", the Phil Coulson LMD has been arrested by S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Daniel Sousa for trespassing on Area 51, as well as seeing the world in black-and-white and hearing an internal monologue due to damage sustained while battling the Chronicoms. Realizing today is the day Sousa is killed by the Russians after delivering vital technology to Howard Stark, Coulson uses his historical knowledge to impersonate Sousa's contact and convince him they are to pick up the device while in transit. He also makes contact with his team via their Chronicom ally Enoch to let them know what he is doing.

Agents Elena "Yo-Yo" Rodriguez and Deke Shaw pick up the device, but the latter is kidnapped by Hydra agents and taken to their boss, Wilfred Malick, who has since become a high-ranking S.H.I.E.L.D. officer since Deke last encountered him in 1931. Despite the danger, Deke manages to convince Malick to let him go after reminding the latter that he spared his life. After Chronicoms attack them on the way, Coulson and his team evacuate Sousa onto their mobile headquarters, ''Zephyr One'', posing as top-secret government operatives to maintain history. Following Melinda May's uncharacteristic behavior around Sousa and the device, scientist Jemma Simmons discovers May acquired the ability to experience others' emotions.

When Sousa reveals that he knows Hydra has infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D., Coulson deduces that the former actually killed him to prevent him from revealing their secret. After conferring with Director Alphonso "Mack" Mackenzie and Agent Daisy Johnson, they decide to find a way to save Sousa without changing history. Suspicious of the team's intentions however, Sousa flees ''Zephyr One'' to make his delivery. He successfully makes it to the rendezvous point and delivers the device before the modern day agents tranquilize him, allowing Coulson to impersonate him and fake his death. Back onboard ''Zephyr One'', Coulson tells Sousa that they are S.H.I.E.L.D. agents from the future, and that to protect the timeline, he cannot go back to 1955. Simmons repairs Coulson as the team jumps to 1973. Unbeknownst to them, a Chronicom stayed behind to propose an alliance with Malick.

The first manga series introduces Mamiya Mugen, the child heir of a rich family that enjoys solving crimes for the Japanese police during the Showa era. Although young, he has telepathic powers and a keen intellect, and is helped by his faithful butler Alucard. Some of the cases he gets involved with are occult or supernatural in nature.

The series was revamped for the second manga publishing, ''Boken Katsugeki-hen'', where the story remains almost the same, although containing more gags and humor. Mugen lacks any superpower now, and solves cases with the help of his butler Alucard and his love interest Atsuko. However, the shady story of his family intervenes as well, forcing him to confront his villainous father and aunt. This iteration of the series received an OVA whose story conflates and references several of the manga's chapters.

A much more serious, almost horror-oriented view of the series is given in its third continuity, ''Kaiki-hen'', where Mugen is now a suave, distinguished ladies man in his twenties. He works mostly alone and meets a long string of lovers in his cases, but is helped by his spiritual powers and his mentor Professor Yokomizo. This style was kept in the work's fourth version, in which Mamiya has a different set of powers.

The last series is the trilogy ''Gensho-hen''/''Oma-hen''/''Meikyu-hen'', in which Mugen is presented as a supernatural entity unrelated to humanity that fights monsters and demons.

Joe gives Al a lift home and when his car is blocked by the stalled car of a black man, they hear derisive calls of "nigger" from other drivers. Joe tells Al that he is a Scandinavian-American Protestant and is not prejudiced toward anyone. Al reveals that he is Jewish and often encounters intolerance. At home, Joe tells Beth that her new friends are Jewish and she should be careful what she says about them. When Joey asks, "What's wrong with Jews?" Joe tells him they are just like any other people.

Pamphlets warning against the influence of "Negros, Jews and foreigners" appear in the town and the minister delivers a sermon urging his congregants to treat others with brotherhood and love. At work, Joe begins to feel that the talented Al is going to take over his job. He begins putting in a lot of overtime to take care of everything himself.

During a home visit from the minister, Joey comes in after a fight, saying that he and his friends beat some "wops". Joe is horrified by Joey's behavior, wondering where it came from. The minister explains that prejudicial attitudes begin in childhood, and urges Joe to think of his own youthful experiences. Joe now remembers his mother complaining about foreigners competing for his father's job, and how he also lost a delivery route to a Jewish boy. He further remembers being tackled by a Jewish classmate in a football game and being convinced by the others that the "dirty Jew" cheated. The minister now explains to Joe that all prejudice and scapegoating stem from personal insecurity and fear.

When Joe's boss asks him about Al's work performance, Joe replies that although he himself doesn't feel this way, others in the company might not be comfortable working with a Jew. The boss decides to transfer Al to another division for the good of the company. In the Green home, Al's wife consoles him but he maintains that Jews will always suffer prejudice. Meanwhile, in the Hanson home, Beth realizes to her horror that Joe had something to do with Al's transfer. Joey comes in crying that other children are calling him a "dumb Swede". Joe realizes that prejudice is everywhere, and can play both ways.

The minister delivers another sermon in which he advises that to overcome prejudice, one must strengthen his faith in Christ, who loves all men equally. This will imbue him with personal security and dignity, and eliminate his fear of others. Joe drops off Joey and Ellen Green at their school and watches a group of children taunt Ellen, calling her "Jew". Joe drives away with conflicted feelings, hearing the minister's words in his head. Finally he works up the nerve to admit his prejudicial statement to his boss and ask him to reinstate Green as his assistant.

The small town with FBI agent Daria Francis (Amanda Schull) being summoned to Devil's Gate to investigate the disappearance of a mother and her son. The deeply religious patriarch of the family, Jackson (Milo Ventimiglia), is the primary suspect. As Francis and local police officer Colt Salter (Shawn Ashmore) arrive at Jackson's home, they discover there may be an other-worldly reason for their disappearance.

As it turns out, Jackson's wife Maria and son Jonah were abducted by aliens. They were returned before Devil's Gate's ending, as the aliens' plan was to secretly infiltrate the locals' bodies. The film's final shot shows that they may have found a way to finally reach every resident of Devil's Gate. The ending of Devil's Gate reflects Jackson's strong religious beliefs and leaves some unanswered questions—here's everything that happened.

Jackson is one of the aliens. When he comes into physical contact with the creature he trapped in his basement, the memories come flooding back to him. There's something like a portal for the aliens on Jackson's land, so they've been commandeering the bodies of his family for generations. Jackson has a flashback showing that he was placed in a copy of Jackson's body, and the real Jackson was destroyed. Maria has been returned, but Jonah has not. It prompts Jackson to fear that his son has been taken over already.

Jackson shares the reason that the aliens are taking over. Their planet is dying, so they need a fresh start or some kind of larger rebirth. This message of rebirth has religious connotations that tie further into Devil's Gate and its ending. In Christianity, a spiritual rebirth comes by following the word of Jesus, the son of God. In a way, Jonah serves as a Jesus-type figure for the aliens. Jackson was turned around the time he was married, meaning that Jonah is half-alien and half-human. Jonah is vastly important to these aliens, as he will supposedly be the one to lead them into a new life within the bodies of humans.

By the end of Devil's Gate, Jonah has been returned. Jackson tries to kill him in order to stop the vicious cycle of aliens taking over the bodies of his family members, but Maria kills Jackson before he can pull the trigger. Maria tells Agent Francis that she loves her son, no matter what he is. However, by the film's final shot, it's clear what he is. He pries open the floorboards of the family's barn floor to reveal rows of alien capsules and informs his mother that it's "time for the harvest". The last moment in Devil's Gate shows Jonah ready to begin his mission. He's going to lead his kind to a chaotic salvation.

This film is described in 1911 trade publications and in Selig promotional material as a story of adventure in the Eskimos' "land of eternal ice". The motion picture, according to reviews and plot descriptions in those publications, opened with snow-covered scenes of a group of Eskimos on a seasonal tribal hunt for game. Soon they discover a teenage orphan girl (Columbia Eneutseak) living alone in a hut. Very sick and without food, she has little chance of survival, so the tribal members refuse to adopt her into their community. They instead invoke the Eskimos' "unwritten law" that imposes a death sentence on anyone who is judged to be "too ill or too aged to participate in the annual hunt".Image of Selig promotional flyer for ''Lost in the Arctic'', image "File:Release flier for LOST IN THE ARCTIC, 1911.jpg", Wikipedia Commons. Retrieved May 29, 2020. In accordance with that law, the orphan is allowed to choose one of two means of death: she may either wander into the surrounding wilderness and be devoured by wolves and bears, or she may be set adrift in an umiak or open canoe without any supplies. She chooses the latter.

After conducting a solemn "'Ceremony of the Walrus Skull'", calling upon the spirits to guide the teenager on her "journey into darkness", tribal members place her into the canoe and launch her into open water bordered by immense fields of solid ice.[http://archive.org/details/moviwor09chal/page/n839/mode/2up "'Lost in the Arctic' (Selig)"], ''The Moving Picture World'' (New York, N.Y.), September 16, 1911, p. 822.

He is the lone survivor of a "lost polar expedition", and as he continues his hunt, he suddenly realizes that the large section of ice on which he is standing has broken off from the ice field and is drifting out to sea. Seemingly doomed, Davis is later elated to sight the orphan's canoe, which has miraculously drifted toward his ice floe. Davis manages to join the girl, whose weak condition has only worsened. Captain John Smith (J. C. Smith), another Arctic explorer, is out searching for the lost expedition across the ice-strewn sea. Overcoming his own "trials and suffering" in the search, Smith finally locates his colleague and saves him as well as his sick Eskimo companion.

In Berlin, Antonio proposes to his live-in boyfriend, Paolo, who says yes. Paolo asks if he can accompany Antonio back to his Italian village, Civita di Bagnoregio, for Easter, which Paolo suggests is a good time for Antonio to come out to his parents. Antonio and Paolo arrive in Civita with their flatmates Benedetta and Donato, and Antonio nervously announces his news at dinner. Antonio's father, Roberto, is shocked. His mother Anna announces that she is excited to celebrate the wedding, but she has conditions: it must happen in Civita; she will hire famous wedding planner Enzo Miccio; as mayor, Roberto will officiate the ceremony; and Paolo's mother must attend. Paolo explains that he has not spoken to his mother for three years since her negative reaction to the news that he is gay, but Anna is adamant. Roberto refuses to perform the ceremony yet is willing to attend the wedding elsewhere, but Anna exiles him from the house until he changes his mind. Anna brings Antonio and Paolo to Father Francesco, who agrees to help them convince Roberto, and to officiate the wedding if they are unsuccessful.

With Antonio, Benendetta and Donato in tow, Paolo reluctantly visits his mother in Naples to invite her to the wedding. She has no interest, and cross-dresser Donato offers to pose as Paolo's mother. Enzo enlists the entire town to create the beautiful wedding Anna is expecting at a local ruined church. Antonio's ex-girlfriend Camilla is still in love with him, and her attempts to insinuate herself into his new life make Paolo temporarily doubt Antonio's devotion. Anna threatens to file for divorce if Roberto does not capitulate. He, in turn, sets the wedding venue on fire, and has to be rescued by Antonio and Paolo. The next day, Roberto officiates the ceremony in the town square. Donato walks Paolo down the aisle dressed as a woman, but Paolo is pleasantly surprised to see that his real mother Vincenza is already there. Camilla interrupts the wedding with the reveal that she and Antonio slept together once after he and Paolo were together. Upset, Paolo moves to leave, but Antonio stops him by professing his love and singing "Don't Leave Me This Way", joined by the wedding guests.

In Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex, a large shopping mall centered around its animatronic mascots, Glamrock Freddy Fazbear (Kellen Goff), Glamrock Chica (Heather Masters), Montgomery "Monty" Gator (Cameron Miller) and Roxanne "Roxy" Wolf (Marta Svetek) are getting ready to perform for an audience. During the performance, Freddy suffers a technical malfunction and shuts down, collapsing on the stage and cutting the performance short.

Freddy awakens back in his room in Rockstar Row, where he discovers that a young boy named Gregory (Marta Svetek) is hiding inside his stomach compartment. Vanessa (Heather Masters), the security nightguard and only human on staff for the night, orders all animatronics and employee robots - most of which have mysteriously become aggressive unbeknownst to her - to search for Gregory. However, Freddy's malfunction and Gregory's fear of Vanessa causes him to disobey the guard's orders and instead guide Gregory to the Pizzaplex's lobby, only for the mall to lock down for the night, trapping Gregory inside. Freddy continues to help Gregory survive the night until they find another way out or the front doors re-open at 6:00 a.m. After eluding Vanessa and the animatronics and taking refuge in a security office, Gregory manages to gain access to the mall's surveillance system. In an effort to obtain high-level security badges in order to access certain areas of the mall, Gregory enters the mall's daycare and encounters the Daycare Attendant (Kellen Goff) in his friendly but overbearing Sun form. A power outage forces Gregory to confront Sun's hostile alter ego, Moon. Gregory manages to restore power to the daycare, but Sun kicks Gregory out for turning the lights off and alerts the animatronics of his location before he is rescued by Freddy.

Gregory is captured by Vanessa and is later confined in a Lost & Found room. Suddenly, Vanny (Marta Svetek) – a woman in a white patchwork rabbit costume who was responsible for reprogramming the animatronics to kill Gregory – approaches him, and he escapes before reuniting with Freddy. Gregory and Freddy venture into the basement, where Moon ambushes them and captures Freddy. Gregory proceeds throughout the basement and avoids animatronic endoskeletons, before finding Freddy being interrogated and threatened by Vanessa. Vanessa states that there is no record of Gregory in the mall database, and accuses Freddy for colluding with Gregory. Once Vanessa leaves and he frees and repairs Freddy, Gregory is faced with exploring the Atrium's attractions in order to battle either Monty for his claws or Chica for her voice box to upgrade Freddy with, acquiring a tool that can temporarily disorient animatronics and S.T.A.F.F. along the way. After installing Monty's claws or Chica's voicebox, Gregory and Freddy evades the large DJ Music Man and forcefully takes Roxy's eyes to further enhance Freddy.

6:00 a.m. arrives shortly after the ocular upgrade is completed, and the doors open, but Vanessa broadcasts a message urging Gregory to meet her for a reward. The "reward" is revealed to be several recorded messages of Vanessa and an unknown woman undergoing therapy sessions. Gregory has the choice of either leaving the mall, staying to continue exploring the Pizzaplex's secrets and trying to solve the remaining mysteries, or confronting Vanny, who was also responsible for several missing children cases within the Pizzaplex.

Endings

A total of six endings exist for the game, each marked with one to three golden stars upon their final cutscenes. * ★ The Alley Ending - If Gregory leaves through the main entrance, he is revealed to be homeless and returns to the cardboard box he has been residing in, using a newspaper with photos of the previous missing children on the front page as a blanket. Gregory tries to fall asleep as Vanny's shadow fills the alleyway, indicating that Vanny has found him. * ★★ The Getaway Ending - If Gregory leaves through the loading dock, he manages to escape with Freddy in a van and uses its battery to recharge Freddy after he runs out of power. A newspaper article reports that Freddy has been replaced with a Glamrock Mr. Hippo playing the triangle, while Monty replaces his position as lead vocalist. * ★★ Burntrap Ending - If the player backtracks to defeat either Monty or Chica to fully upgrade Freddy, then Gregory and Freddy can progress underneath the construction in Roxy's Raceway and find the buried ruins of the burned-down Freddy Fazbear's Pizza Place, which had sunk underground through a sinkhole and was further buried by the Pizzaplex's trash. Freddy remembers that he was brought there by Vanny in the past, to clear a path to an unknown location in the Pizza Place's basement level. They encounter a monstrous amalgamation of older animatronics dubbed "the Blob." The spirit of William Afton, Fazbear Entertainments's co-founder and an undead serial killer who had been manipulating events behind the scenes after previously brainwashing Vanny, emerges in a partially restored "Burntrap" body and attempts to take control of Freddy, forcing Gregory to fight Afton, the Blob, and the remains of Chica, Monty, and Roxy alone while under threat of Freddy turning against him. The battle causes the ruins to burn down and forces Gregory and Freddy to flee. The Blob drags Afton away, leaving their fates unknown, enabling the protagonists' escape from the Pizzaplex. The two find rest atop a hill, enjoying the sunrise. This is considered the true ending. * ★★ To The Rooftop Ending - If a certain number of collectibles are collected and Freddy is upgraded, Gregory and Freddy decide to burn down the mall using flammable plushies before they are confronted by Vanny on the roof. Freddy tackles Vanny off the roof, destroying them both; Gregory unmasks Vanny, who turns out to be a woman identical in appearance as Vanessa. Vanessa, standing on the rooftop, sadly looks down at Freddy and Vanny's bodies as the flames grow bigger. A news article reports that the Pizzaplex has burnt down and that flammable Fazbear toys have been recalled. * ★★ Disassemble Vanny Ending - If Gregory and Freddy decide to fight Vanny in her hideout in Fazer Blast, Vanny will order the S.T.A.F.F. robots to disassemble Freddy, forcing Gregory to face her alone. He manages to grab Vanny's device and orders the robots to "disassemble" her. Gregory approaches the damaged Freddy, who gives words of comfort before he shuts down. A news article reports that the Pizzaplex has closed due to health concerns and plans to reopen next season. * ★★★ Redemption Ending - If Gregory completes the three ''Princess Quest'' arcade games instead of deciding to kill Vanny, he finds the mall's robots have shut down and Vanny's mask has been discarded. He escapes with Freddy's still-living head in a duffel bag, with Vanessa joining him. The three rest atop a hill, enjoying the sunrise as Gregory and Vanessa eat ice cream.

Thord Øveraas is a rich and prosperous farmer, one of the most powerful men in his community. One day he stands in the priest's office and says he wants his son baptized. The baptism is scheduled for the coming Saturday at twelve o'clock. Sixteen years later, Thord comes to the priest's living room, and asks to have his son confirmed. He will not pay the priest until he makes sure that his son is first in line. Then eight years go by and Thord stands in the priest's office with several other men from the village. The son is to marry Karen Storlien, the village's richest girl. He pays three dollars, although the priest says he should receive only one. All these times Thord has talked to the priest, he has always asked "Is there anything else?", and every time Thord replies "Otherwise there is nothing."

Fourteen days later, the unthinkable happens to Thord. One day they are out rowing and talking about the wedding, and then the son falls out of the boat, goes stiff, and drowns. The father looks for three days and three nights for his dead son. On the morning of the third day, he finds his son's body and carries him up the slopes back to his farm.

An entire year passes. One autumn evening, the priest hears someone walking outside the front room, and there stands Thord.

Bart gets assigned to another golfer named Bildorf, who tells him to convince Marge to change her mind. The two then come up with the idea to make golf a religion to allow the course to avoid paying a bunch of taxes, which Mayor Quimby allows. After Reverend Lovejoy and other church leaders prove to be no help, Marge is ready to give up. But after Bildorf insults Bart by firing him as his caddy and hiring an untalented rich kid, then saying that Bart will never be allowed to join the club and will always be inferior to someone like Bildorf, Bart gets mad and joins up with his friends to vandalize the course. Marge is happy to have the old Bart back.

A woman in the carriage gives him a crucifix. The coach only takes Jonathan so far, then Dracula's carriage picks him up. The Count himself, in disguise, drives the carriage. On their way to the castle, wolves chase the carriage. The Count sends them away. At the castle, the bearded and robust Count greets Jonathan. Dracula helps Jonathan with his bags and shows him to his room, making excuses for his servants' absence. Jonathan enjoys a supper in which the Count does not join him. Jonathan and Dracula discuss the sale of Carfax, the old London estate that the Count wants to buy. Dracula tells Jonathan he must stay at the castle for a while to help the Count perfect his English.

Jonathan cuts himself shaving, and in his shaving mirror, he notices that the Count has no reflection. The sight of the blood excites the Count, but the crucifix repulses him. Dracula takes Harker's mirror and tosses it out of the window. Jonathan soon realizes that he is alone at the castle with Dracula and that Dracula is not human. He wanders around the castle, falls asleep in one room, and is attacked by three vampire women - who refer to each other as Marquess, Countess, and Madame. Dracula stops their attack and gives the women a baby to feed on. The next evening Dracula tells Jonathan to write false letters home, in which he is to say that he already has left Transylvania. A woman comes to the castle, pleading for the return of her child, but wolves kill her. That night Jonathan sees Dracula climb head-first down the castle's wall. Getting desperate to find the key to the castle's front door and escape, Jonathan climbs out of his window and down an outer wall. He sees Romani loading coffins to the carriage in the yard. Jonathan soon finds a vault where the three vampire women repose in coffins, each in a deathlike trance. He finds the Count, also in a coffin in a similar state. Jonathan searches Dracula for the key. Unable to find it, he tries to kill the Count with a shovel but fails. Jonathan makes a desperate leap to escape.

Back in London, Jonathan celebrates being home from the hospital. He is among his friends- Arthur Holmwood and Lucy, Dr. John Seward, and Harker's wife, Mina. Jonathan is suffering from amnesia and has no recollection of what happened to him while he was abroad, and does not want to remember since he only knows that it was something unpleasant. Mina says that she hid his journal from him, so that he would not get upset by the memories. Lucy, meanwhile, is disappointed that he can't remember; she was looking forward to hearing what he had to say about the Carpathians since she shows interest in going there herself someday. She says she would like to borrow Jonathan's journal, and Lucy seems so impatient to do so she becomes agitated and passes out. Arthur reveals that Lucy suffers from a mysterious illness that left her pale and weak for three weeks. She also has two tiny wounds on her throat. Lucy's illness baffles Dr. Seward, so he sends for Professor Van Helsing to come from Holland to have a look at her. Van Helsing places garlic in Lucy's room and prescribes her garlic cream and peppermint tea. But Lucy removes the garlic, and Dracula enters her room. Lucy's mother, who was with her at that moment, dies of a heart attack. Lucy quickly fades away despite blood transfusion and beckons Arthur on her deathbed. Her teeth appear longer and sharper. Shortly afterward, Lucy dies and is buried. At Lucy's funeral, Mina suddenly turns around and then begins to walk towards something or somebody as if in a trance. Jonathan stops her and then sees the Count and recognizes him, but the Count vanishes. When Van Helsing asks him what's wrong, Jonathan says that he knows what's happened to him in the Carpathians and who is guilty of Lucy's death. Three nights after she was buried, Arthur is grieving in her room when he hears and sees Lucy calling to him outside. But Arthur understands that she is not Lucy anymore and repels her with garlic. Lucy leaves but wickedly promises Arthur that she will still get him, as he is still her groom. Van Helsing and others gather to discuss what they are to do now. Arthur tells them that Lucy came to him. Van Helsing shows them the newspaper, describing how three children have been kidnapped or wounded in the neck in the past few days after being kissed by a woman in white. While all the men are deeply concerned by this news, Mina is smiling strangely. Van Helsing tells them that they need to open the coffin of Lucy and cut her head off. Arthur is horrified and appalled, but Harker supports Professor. Van Helsing asks Jonathan to give him his journal, but when Harker asks his wife what she has done with it, Mina says she doesn't know what he is talking about. Jonathan finds the journal hidden among Mina's things, decides that she is tired and should go to bed.

Mina briefly touches her throat with her hand. Van Helsing leads Seward, Holmwood, and Harker to the graveyard by night. Inside the tomb, they find that Lucy's coffin is empty. Soon Lucy returns to the tomb carrying the child, which she drops when Van Helsing and others confront her. Lucy sweetly calls Arthur to come with her but retreats from Van Helsing's crucifix and returns to her tomb. Professor seals it, and they wait till daybreak. Then they re-enter Lucy's tomb, and Arthur stakes Lucy, while Van Helsing reads a prayer. A peaceful expression appears on Lucy's face, and Professor allows Arthur to kiss her.

Van Helsing and other men discuss what they know about their enemy, Dracula. Van Helsing has written to Budapest University and from the answer knows that Count Dracula is Voivode Dracula, who became famous in battles against the Turks. He also talks about the vampire's strengths and weaknesses, including the need to rest on his home soil and how Dracula wants to increase his undead empire by moving to London. They suddenly hear the laughter in the next room, run there, and find unconscious Mina on the floor. On her neck, they discover two wounds. The men go to Carfax, a place Harker sold to Dracula in London, and sterilize the boxes with communion wafers. However, two boxes are missing. Dracula confronts them there; Jonathan swings at him with his knife, but it only slashes the Count's coat, and gold coins spill out. Jonathan realizes that they left Mina at home completely alone.

Meanwhile, Dracula enters Mina's room, drinks her blood, then slashes his chest and makes her drink his blood, saying that now she belongs to him and if he tells her to come, she will go to him. The men burst in but are too late. Van Helsing tries to break Dracula's hold and presses a wafer to Mina's forehead, but it burns her. Professor understands that now they have to rely on Mina's psychic link to Dracula to learn where he is. They find out that Dracula is on the ship and is heading back to Transylvania. The heroes go by train to win time. When they reach Dracula's castle, Mina becomes excited, behaves as if she is at home, runs from Jonathan across the castle's halls, laughing wantonly and igniting the lights in the castle by the mere swish of her hand. The heroes spend the night in the castle, putting garlic wreaths as barriers in the room. Three vampire women appear, but they cannot enter the room. They call out to Mina, call her their sister, and promise to teach her lovely things, teach her to drink blood, promise to give her all those men who are with her now. Mina wants to go to them, but Arthur stops her. The next morning Van Helsing and Dr. Seward stake the three vampire women, and they crumble into dust.

After Dracula's wagon arrives, the Romani run away upon finding he is in the coffin-shaped box they have delivered. The men try to attack Dracula, but he gets away from them, telling Harker that Mina is his and coming with him. Mina runs off again, and Jonathan once more has to go chase her down. Dracula intercepts her with open arms, but Jonathan throws a dagger that pierces his heart. Dracula turns into dust, while the mark disappears from Mina's forehead. Jonathan's journal ends with a note that all these events happened seven years ago and that the castle still stands as it has before.

Greg Heffley and his family have been living in his grandmother's basement for two months (due to the events in ''Wrecking Ball''), and they are beginning to go stir crazy. The Heffleys can not afford an expensive vacation, but they discuss possible family vacations that they would be able to afford. Unable to reach a decision, Greg's family receives a call from his great-grandmother, asking them to take his uncle's camper out of her driveway. The family realizes that they can vacation in the camper and not have to spend money at restaurants and hotels.

After buying supplies and cleaning the camper, the family takes off on the road. They make several stops, arriving at a fish hatchery they unknowingly swim in, an activity center, and a National forest.

Greg's mother wants to be vacationing in a place where there are more people, so they pay to spend a week at a luxury RV campground. Greg explores the grounds, seeing the showers, swimming pool, and the "deluxe" campsites, where people have satellite dishes and even lawns that they tend to.

The following day, the Heffleys go canoeing in the site's lake, where teenagers slingshot watermelons at them. Greg meets a group of boys, led by a kid named "Juicebox", that have been going to the campsite for years. They get along, and the boys show him how they have fun at camp. Later, the teenagers that pestered the Heffleys launch watermelons at the boys. Juicebox reveals the boys' plan to ambush the teens by spraying them with water guns. They act on their plan but have to hide when the teenagers chase them. The boys refill their squirt guns, this time with ketchup and soda, and spray the teens again, attracting bees to them, which sting them. The boys run off and hide, victorious in their plan.

The next day, Greg finds out that the others boys were caught by the camp director, who forced them to clean the snack shack (which the boys dirtied while spraying their squirt guns) with toothbrushes. Juicebox attempts to pin the blame on Greg, but the director is unable to find him.

The family goes to swim in the camp's pool but has to leave when lightning starts to flash. They soon learn that the bridge leading in and out of the grounds was struck by lightning and is inaccessible. Due to the bridge being out of order, campers begin to get desperate and rowdy, raiding the camp store, stealing water from the showers, and even tipping RVs. Not wanting to stay any longer, the Heffleys decide to drive over the river that flows under the bridge. However, they get washed downstream, where the camper gets snapped snugly into the missing area of the bridge. The rest of the campgoers drive over the top of the Heffleys' RV, leaving the family alone at the camp. With the place to themselves, they are able to enjoy their last day at the campground, having fun at the lake and eating better meals than they have all trip. Greg reflects on the fact that he made a few happy memories but wishes he did not have to go through as much drama as he did.

Frank Crichlow is a Trinidadian immigrant opening a new restaurant, the Mangrove, in Notting Hill in the late 1960s. Notting Hill was then a Caribbean immigrant neighborhood. On opening night Constable Frank Pulley looks on and comments to a fellow constable that Black people must be kept in their place.

After the restaurant closes for the night Pulley aggressively confronts Crichlow and accuses Crichlow of running an establishment frequented by drug dealers, gamblers, and prostitutes. Thereafter, Pulley conducts a series of violent raids on the Mangrove, driving Crichlow to financial distress.

The neighborhood rallies in support of the Mangrove and a march is organized to protest police conduct. The police surround the protestors and provoke violence. A number of protesters are immediately brought up on minor charges including Frank Crichlow, British-born activist Barbara Beese, Trinidadian Black Panther leader Altheia Jones-LeCointe, Trinidadian activist Darcus Howe, Rhodan Gordon, Anthony Carlisle Innis, Rothwell Kentish, Rupert Boyce, and Godfrey Millett. A year later those protesters – the Mangrove Nine – are charged with the serious crimes of riot and affray.

At their 1970 trial the Mangrove Nine make race an issue, asking for an all Black jury. The presiding judge, Judge Edward Clarke, declines the request and refuses to give justification. The defendants use their right to challenge white jury members several times, and the prosecutors challenge black jury members. As witnesses give their testimony, Judge Clarke plainly gives preferential treatment to the prosecution. Jones-LeCointe and Howe, representing themselves, point out fabrications in Pulley's testimony and flaws in the medical examiner's testimony. Pulley attempts to feed answers to policeman Royce while he is on the stand, resulting in Pulley's expulsion from the courtroom until his fellow policemen have given their testimony. Barbara Beese then interrupts a witness policeman's gleaming introduction by chanting "the officer has nothing to do with the case" and is soon joined by the other defendants and observers. Judge Clarke reprimands the defendants and observers for disrupting the proceedings and launches an adjournment so emotions can settle. Crichlow and Howe are roughly dragged out of the court box by court officers and thrown into solitary basement cells for disruption. Upon pushback from defending counsels Ian Macdonald and Mr. Croft, Judge Clarke replaces all court officers.

Crichlow is advised by his counsel, Mr. Croft, to plead guilty and abandon his fellow defendants to their own sentences. Crichlow pleads innocent after Jones-LeCointe objects and reveals she is pregnant. The jury acquits Crichlow, Howe, and three other defendants. The judge, commenting that there was evidence of racism on both sides, gives lenient sentences to the four who were convicted.

Teachers Martin, Tommy, Peter, and Nikolaj are colleagues and friends that work at a gymnasium school in Copenhagen. All four struggle with unmotivated students and feel that their lives have become boring and stale. At a dinner celebrating Nikolaj's 40th birthday, the group begins to discuss the theory of psychiatrist Finn Skårderud — that humans are born with a blood alcohol content (BAC) deficiency of 0.05%, and that being at 0.05% makes one more creative and relaxed. Martin is confronted by his senior students and their parents, who express that he has become a barrier to them passing their history exams.

The friends decide to embark on an experiment to test Skårderud's theory. They start a group log of what occurs when they start drinking at regular intervals to maintain this blood alcohol level. Two of the friends have personal challenges that also make this experiment attractive: Martin is depressed and alienated from his family and students, Nikolaj's wife seems to have contempt for him. Each man has his own way of sneaking alcohol during the day while teaching or coaching children, but they never drink and drive. They agree to a set of rules: their BAC should never be below 0.05 and they should not drink after 8:00pm or on the weekends.

Within a short period of time, all four members of the group find both their work and private lives more enjoyable and successful. Martin, in particular, is delighted as he finally manages to reconnect with his wife and children. His teaching of history becomes inspired, and his students begin enjoying class and respecting him. He teaches history through the lens of drinking alcohol, connecting with heavy drinking students. Agreeing that the experiment should be taken further, the group increases the daily BAC limit to 0.10. Still finding their lives improved, one night they decide to drink to oblivion to test the liberating effects, but after coming home incapacitated, both Martin and Nikolaj are confronted by their families. Martin's family express their worries, revealing that they knew he has been drinking for weeks. He and his wife express how each has drawn away from the other, and she admits to infidelity. The group abandons the experiment. Martin and his wife have split up, and while he tries to make amends, she rejects him.

All the members of the group have stopped drinking during the day with the exception of Tommy, who the others try to take care of. But at a faculty meeting where the headmaster reveals that teachers have been drinking at work, Tommy arrives incredibly drunk. Later, Tommy boards his boat drunk with his old dog, sails out on the ocean, and drowns at sea.

The three remaining members of the group go out to dinner after Tommy's funeral to celebrate him, and enjoy sparkling wine. While dining, Martin's wife texts him that she misses him a lot. The recently graduated students drive by, and Martin, Peter and Nikolaj join them in celebrating and drinking at the harbour. Martin, a former jazz ballet dancer, dances with the rest of the partygoers, which he had refused up to this point despite his colleagues' urging. His dance becomes increasingly energetic and joyous before jumping off the harbour.

Satoko (Hiromi Nagasaku) and Kiyokazu (Arata Iura) have a kindergarten-age son, Asato (Reo Sato), whom they adopted as a newborn. One day they receive a call from one of his teachers telling them that a boy at his school has fallen off the jungle gym and claims Asato pushed him which Asato denies. The boy's mother requests reimbursement for their medical expenses. Satoko worries that her son may have inherited bad genes from his birth parents.

In a flashback to a few years earlier, Satoko and Kiyokazu decide to start a family and learn that Kiyokazu has aspermia. After a long, painful, and ultimately unsuccessful period of treatments, they decided to gave up and settle for a childless life until seeing a program on TV about Baby Baton, a nonprofit association that matches infertile couples with mothers who cannot or don't want to raise their biological children. Seeing this, Satoko and Kiyokazu realize that adoption could be a perfect alternative for them to build a normal family.

When Satoko and Kiyokazu come to pick up the newborn Asato, they are asked if they want to meet his biological mother. They say yes, and are introduced to Hikari, a well-mannered young girl who cares deeply for her baby. Hikari gives them a letter to the baby, and says she is very sorry.

Another flashback introduces Asato's biological mother, Hikari (Aju Makita), a fourteen-year-old junior high school student. Hikari falls in love with a male classmate, leading to a pure, mutual, and intense romance. They have sexual intercourse, and Hikari later finds out that she is pregnant; since she had not yet begun to menstruate, the discovery comes too late for her to have an abortion. Afraid of gossip and damaging Hikari's bright future prospects, her family decides to send her away to Baby Baton, which provides accommodations for expectant mothers and finds adoptive parents for their unwanted children. Hikari and the other expectant mothers, mostly young trafficked girls, find peace with each other while waiting to give birth.

In the present day, Satoko receives another phone call from the kindergarten teacher, revealing that the other boy lied about Asato pushing him and confessed that he jumped off the jungle gym himself. Satoko feels relieved, and the family plans a joyful visit to the zoo, but they are interrupted by a phone call from a woman claiming she is Asato's mother, and she wants her son back. Satoko and Kiyokazu reluctantly agree to meet Hikari who threatens to reveal their son is adopted unless they give her money. The couple reveal that their son's adoption is not a secret and based on what she has said and their one meeting of Hikari they do not believe that the woman they are talking to actually is Hikari.

After returning from Baby Baton's facilities, Hikari came to feel like an outsider from her old life, and soon leaves home and returns to Baby Baton's facility, asking for a job and a place to stay. She learns that Baby Baton will be closing down after its final current resident delivers her baby. While working there, Hikari accidentally comes upon Baby Baton's records of adoptive parents, and finds the file about the adoptive parents of her son.

She moves closer to the city to be nearer her son and takes a job delivering newspapers. While working there she befriends a young girl her own age who reminds her of one of the pregnant women she met at Baby Baton. The two soon form a close friendship; however, her friend is in trouble with loan sharks and fakes Hikari's signature as a co-signer so she won't have to repay the loan. Hikari eventually comes up with the money and, broken hearted, finally reaches out to her son's parents. After hearing her son calling for his mother she apologizes and says she is not his mother and runs away.

Later on Sakoto is visited by the police who show her Hikari's name and confirm her identity. Ashamed of not having recognized Hikari, Sakoto manages to track her down and introduces her son to his birth mother.

Act 1

The Narrator introduces the story by describing the death of Cecily Smith, Mr McClam's wife and Harold's mother, on November 9, 1964 ("Fly By Night"). After the funeral, Harold and his father clean out Cecily's closet and find a record of ''La Traviata'' and a guitar. Mr McClam attempts to tell his son about why the record is important to him; however, Harold is fixated on the guitar, which Mr McClam lets him keep.

The Narrator jumps forward five months to a 'smoky club', where Harold performs a song ("Circles in the Sand") using his mother's old guitar. The Narrator cuts Harold off mid-song when he realises he has skipped a large part of the story.

The Narrator then takes the audience back in time to introduce Daphne, a young woman living in South Dakota who dreams of moving to New York and becoming an actress. Her mother agrees to let her pursue her dreams providing she takes her sister Miriam with her, and although Miriam is initially reluctant to leave her home, Daphne manages to convince her, and the two set off for New York ("Daphne Dreams"). Daphne is forced to take a job at a coat and shoe store while attending auditions, none of which are successful. One of these auditions is with the playwright Joey Storms, whose script she describes as 'worse than garbage' after being insulted by the producer.

Shortly after this audition, Daphne meets Harold, who is working as a sandwich maker at a deli run by the grumpy Crabble, and he makes her lunch. A few weeks later, he asks her out, and they kiss ("More Than Just a Friend").

The Narrator once again disrupts the chronology, taking the audience back in time to show Miriam on the night before she and Daphne leave for New York. Nervous about moving, Miriam finds comfort looking up at the stars, which she associates with her dead father ("Stars I Trust"). On Miriam's first night in New York, she has an unsettling encounter with a Romani fortune teller, which reinforces her worries about living in the city. However, she becomes more optimistic when she gets her dream job: waitressing at the Greasy Spoon Café, a 24-hour diner in Brooklyn ("Breakfast All Day").

The Narrator takes the audience forward to New Year's Day, 1965, when the playwright Joey Storms enters Daphne's store and declares her his muse ("What You Do To Me"). He begs her to star in his new show, entitled 'The Human Condition'. Daphne is ecstatic and goes to the deli to tell Harold her news. He proposes to her and she says yes ("More Than Just a Friend (Reprise)"), and decides that Harold and Miriam should meet.

That night, Miriam gets lost on her way to the diner and runs into the fortune teller again ("The Prophecy"). They say that Miriam will meet her soulmate that night, and tell her of three signs: the question "What does it look like when time stops?"; the numbers five, two, and seven; and a mysterious melody. Miriam goes to the diner and sees that the only person there is Harold. The two hit it off and Miriam sings the fortune teller's melody for Harold, who realises it is the perfect fit for the song he has been writing. Miriam is amazed by this and tells Harold everything about the prophecy, announcing "You're my soulmate, I think". When Daphne enters and introduces Harold to Miriam as her fiancé, Miriam is mortified.

The fortune teller later finds Miriam and warns her that there is a second part to the prophecy: she will have a love affair with her soulmate, and then she will have a great fall ("The Prophecy Part 2").

Although Miriam vows to avoid Harold, he can't stop thinking about her. He writes a song for her and performs it at the 'smoky club' The Narrator showed the audience earlier, tricking Miriam into attending by telling her that the wedding band Daphne asked her to book is playing there that night. This time, The Narrator allows the scene to complete and Harold finishes his song ("Circles in the Sand (Reprise)"). Afterwards, he finds Miriam in the crowd, and they kiss.

Act 2

Miriam is filled with guilt over kissing her sister's fiancé and flees to South Dakota ("Pulled Apart"). With Miriam gone, Harold falls into a state of depression. He and Daphne move in together, however they rarely see each other as she spends so much time rehearsing with Joey. Mr McClam calls his son repeatedly, however Harold can't bring himself to answer the phone. At work, Harold and Crabble complain about the state of their lives ("Eternity").

The opening night of Joey's play is set for November 9, 1965. On 'Opening Eve', he presents Daphne with a new song ("I Need More") which references her acting dreams and her strained relationship with Harold. That night, both Daphne and Harold dream of escaping their empty lives ("The Rut").

The next morning, Harold's alarm clock breaks and he sees it as a sign: "this is what it looks like when time stops!". He books a train ticket to South Dakota to find Miriam. As he waits for his train, The Narrator talks us through the activities of the other characters: Mr McClam wants to mark the anniversary of his wife's death by seeing ''La Traviata'', but the show is sold out; Daphne and Joey prepare for opening night; and Crabble, alone at the deli, tries to make as many sandwiches as possible ("At Least I'll Know I Tried").

Harold is about to board his train when he spots Miriam, who has returned to New York to see Daphne's play. She explains why she can't be with him, but he convinces her to have one lunch with him ("Me With You"). This lunch lasts for hours, and as they are about to part ways, the northeast blackout hits and the lights go out.

Mr McClam, who was about to take his own life by dropping his record player into his bath, believes that his wife sent the blackout to save him. He goes outside and tells a small crowd of neighbours the story of how he met his wife, and the significance of ''La Traviata'' ("Cecily Smith").

Meanwhile, the blackout - which struck just as the curtain was about to rise on the play - causes Joey to have an epiphany, and he decides he needs to leave New York. He asks Daphne to come with him, but she refuses as living in New York is her dream.

Harold and Miriam, caught up in the romance of the blackout, decide to run away; however, Miriam looks up at a clock and sees that the time stopped at 5:27. She stops in her tracks, remembering the prophecy, and is hit by a speeding car. At the hospital, Daphne and Harold learn that she has passed away ("Fly By Night (Reprise)").

Grief-stricken, Harold spends hours wandering around the dark city, eventually finding himself on his childhood stoop, where he is comforted by his father. He goes to his apartment, where Daphne sings 'Stars I Trust' on the roof. Together, they look at the sky and mourn Miriam ("November Stars").

The sitcom follows young Catherine "Cathy" Walcott (Ellie White) & her half sister, Catherine "Cat" Walcott (Lauren Socha), who had no idea of each other's existence until their father's untimely death at a birthday party.

The film is set in 1995 in The Curragh, Ireland where outsiders Eddie and Amber, two teenagers distraught over persistent homophobic abuse, decide to hide their sexuality from the rural Irish town in which they live by pretending to be a heterosexual couple. Amber wants to escape a life overshadowed by the suicide of her father to lead a lesbian punk life-style in a more liberal environment. She is saving money to move to London by surreptitiously renting out caravans to teenage couples in need of some privacy on a park her mother runs. Eddie is not so confident of his sexuality and intends to follow his insensitive and often absent father into the Irish Army.

On trips to Dublin the "couple" begin to absorb its gay culture. Eddie is seen passionately kissing another man in a gay bar by someone from his home town. This causes Eddie to panic and attack the witnesses to his kiss. Meanwhile, Amber begins an affair with Sarah, a girl she meets in Dublin.

Amber comes out to her Mum who meets Sarah and understands that her daughter wants and needs to be with her girlfriend. Amber is then outed to the town through the local priest. Initially Eddie can't accept that his pretense with Amber is over but then tries to establish a heterosexual relationship with schoolmate Tracey prior to joining the army. When he is due to enlist Amber appears at the barracks and offers him her savings to help him escape living a lie. He accepts his sexuality and the money to buy a train ticket to another life. Eddie opens the box containing Amber's savings, revealing half of the photo booth picture inside, the movie ends with both of them smiling, finally accepting who they really are.

A man resting in a rural southwest setting is bludgeoned with a replica Venus Di Milo statue and his body dragged to an open fire.

Symcha Lipa (Jack Lord), a Hungarian born and raised drifter, is resting at the side of a dusty Arizona road. He is picked up by Mickey Terry (Susan Strasberg), who drives him to her home and offers him a shower before he goes on his way. Mickey lives with her mother and two sisters, but only the older sister, Diz (Collin Wilcox Paxton), is there at the time. The sisters have a brief argument, with Diz implying that Mickey picked up Lipa to be her latest sexual partner. They are joined by the youngest sister, Nan (Tisha Sterling), who has just been expelled from school for her latest incident of misbehavior, and the mother (T.C. Jones).

The next morning when Lipa leaves the Terry home he is run down by a car coming up behind him. He is knocked unconscious and spends three days in hospital, but suffers no lasting injuries. The investigating sheriff cautions him about the Terry household, telling him mysterious things have happened there, including the disappearance of Julio Lamberto, a man who spent time with the Terry women.

Despite the warning, Lipa returns to the Terry home. Only Diz is there at the time. They have a long talk and Diz tells him about the time years before when her mother killed her abusive father. Later, greatly agitated, she tries to kiss Lipa, saying she wants to save him from Mickey. He easily moves away from her.

When the other three women return home, Lipa asks the mother if he can work in the family business in return for room and board. His offer is accepted. Lipa goes to Mickey and they too have a long conversation. Mickey tells him she has fallen in love with him, but he tells her his capacity for love was lost in the aftermath of the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. Mickey talks to Lipa about her father, and also mentions she had been involved with Julio Lamberto. Even though Lipa had previously told Mickey she was moving too fast in their relationship, they become lovers and decide to move to San Francisco.

When they tell the rest of the family their intentions, the mother wishes them luck. They plan to leave the next day. It is almost Halloween and it will soon be Nan's birthday, so they decide to have a party that night to celebrate everything. Early in the festivities Nan goes missing. But she is soon found, she and Diz were merely working together to scare Lipa and Mickey.

That night Lipa chats, separately, with the mother and Nan. In all, the four women tell very different stories of what happened to the father. They all say he was artistically accomplished, specializing in Venus Di Milo replicas. The women also mention their interactions with Julio Lamberto.

The next day Lipa and Mickey leave in the car, but have to return shortly after, as Diz had predicted they would, when Mickey realizes she does not have her money. When Mickey goes upstairs to look for it, Lipa is lured to a back room and knocked unconscious with a statue by Nan. She and Diz drag him to a furnace and open the grate and prepare to force his body in. Mickey and the mother arrive just in time to prevent it. As they struggle, Lipa regains consciousness. Nan, while calling out that Lipa must die, grasps at the mother's head and pulls. The mother is wearing a wig which Nan yanks off, and she is revealed, to the shock of all the sisters, to actually be their father.

Diz, overwhelmed, babbles that she told Nan to kill Lipa because he was going to cause the family to separate. Diz then says that she hated her mother and killed her years ago. The father supports her version, saying that his wife was a wicked woman with low morals. Nan confesses to having killed Julio Lamberto.

The father tells Mickey to go start her new life with Lipa in San Francisco. They drive off. The father returns to Diz and Nan and comforts then, and says they should have some tea. He removes three of the four pills he keeps in a locket around his neck, and drops one in each of the cups of tea he has prepared for them and for himself. While doing so he says, “It’s never too late to be a good father”.

Out on the highway Lipa asks Mickey what actually happened to her mother. The camera freezes on Mickey's face and her enigmatic, possibly sinister smile.

When her elderly husband suddenly dies, and she in turn is affected by a condition that disfigures half of her face, Marlene (Regina Torné), a fashion entrepreneur, is forced to turn to Dr. Favel (John Carradine), a mad scientist who tells her that the solution to both predicaments is to bring him fresh blood from young women, for which Marlene turns into a serial killer.

A Pied Piper livestream of a National History Museum technician falling down a ravine reaches 7,000 viewers as Richard Hendricks (Thomas Middleditch) awaits the decision of an arbitration case against him by Hooli, who alleged that the Pied Piper IP is theirs, due to the fact that Richard worked on Pied Piper while working for Hooli. A Hooli lawyer visits the Hacker Hostel to intimidate Richard, telling him to prepare the platform for Hooli's acquisition. Pessimistic, Bertram Gilfoyle (Martin Starr) discusses deleting Pied Piper's code to Richard, citing the Intersite ineptitude. Richard objects, wanting to see how big Pied Piper can get until its eventual demise. Erlich Bachman (T.J. Miller) puts the hostel up for sale, uncertain of Pied Piper's future. The livestream gains traction as links to it are shared on BuzzFeed and Reddit. Jared Dunn (Zach Woods) announces to the team that Manny Pacquiao, a local celebrity in the Philippines, had shared a link to the livestream to his two million followers. As the livestream becomes an internet sensation in the Philippines, the increased traffic puts strain on Pied Piper's servers, as Gilfoyle works to keep the breakers in the Hacker Hostel from tripping, and attracts the attention of Laurie Bream (Suzanne Cryer) and Monica (Amanda Crew), who comment on the livestream's popularity in the Philippines. As the Pied Piper team works towards keeping the servers online, Erlich declines an all-cash offer to buy the hostel, and helps Dinesh Chugtai (Kumail Nanjiani) keep the servers online. As the livestream crosses 300,000 viewers, the servers catch on fire. The livestream ends with the technician drinking his own urine on the livestream as a rescue team arrives.

Meanwhile, as Gavin Belson (Matt Ross) and Richard await the judge's decision, Gavin reveals to Richard that the Pied Piper algorithm was the only way to make Nucleus work and that he would have paid $250 million for Pied Piper had the arbitration case not happened. The arbitration judge rules that Hooli has a right to ownership of Pied Piper's IP. Hopeless, Richard texts Dinesh to tell him to delete Pied Piper's code. The judge adds a caveat to his ruling, however: a clause in Hooli's employment agreement forbade Richard from hiring Jared, which a ruling by the Supreme Court of California deemed unlawful, making Richard's employment under Hooli invalid and thereby Hooli has no legal right to Pied Piper's IP.

Realizing that he had told Dinesh to delete Pied Piper's code, Richard frantically attempts to call Jared to get him to call off deleting Pied Piper, but his phone dies before he can call him. Richard then attempts to get to his car, but his car keys fall into a sewer drain. Panicking, Richard goes to a coffee shop and borrows a phone before realizing that he doesn't know any of the team's phone numbers. Richard then boards a bus and borrows the bus driver's phone to send an email to Jared. Unbeknownst to Richard, his email never got through to Jared, as the Pied Piper team celebrated Pied Piper before eventually running Dinesh's script to delete Pied Piper. Fortunately for Richard, a bug in the script causes it to crash, preserving the algorithm.

At Hooli, Gavin faces the Hooli board, who belittle Gavin and discuss replacing Gavin with Big Head (Josh Brener). Meanwhile, Laurie approaches Russ Hanneman (Chris Diamantopoulos) and purchases his stake in Pied Piper, securing three out of five board seats in Pied Piper. As the Pied Piper team celebrate their victory over Hooli, Monica calls Richard to inform him that Raviga had acquired a majority share in Pied Piper and Richard was to step down from Pied Piper, effective immediately.

Based on the true story of Héctor Abad Gómez, a Colombian university professor who challenges the country's establishment.

Landing in 1973, the agents return to the speakeasy to figure out the Chronicoms' latest plan while Daniel Sousa adjusts to the new time period, only to discover from General Rick Stoner that Wilfred Malick, who should have died in 1970, is leading S.H.I.E.L.D. in preparing Project Insight, which should not have been developed for several more decades. Wilfred and the Chronicoms attempt to capture the agents, but Daisy Johnson takes the former's son, Nathaniel, hostage to facilitate their escape. Unbeknownst to her, Nathaniel sees her using her powers. The agents reunite with Enoch and return to their mobile headquarters, ''Zephyr One'', to stop Project Insight, believing they have time to do so.

Without warning however, the Chronicoms jump forward to 1976, when Project Insight is set to launch, causing ''Zephyr One'' to follow them. The aliens also confront Wilfred regarding his saving Nathaniel over destroying S.H.I.E.L.D., though they become inspired to use their enemies' emotions against them. With no other options left, Johnson and Sousa hack the Lighthouse's security system while Phil Coulson and Melinda May infiltrate the S.H.I.E.L.D. base to plant explosives. Concurrently, Deke Shaw and Elena "Yo-Yo" Rodriguez confront Wilfred, who reveals the Chronicoms knew they were going to try and destroy the Lighthouse before Deke kills him. Despite this, he and Yo-Yo discover too late that the Chronicoms have captured Director Alphonso "Mack" Mackenzie's parents and imprisoned them in the Lighthouse. In response, Mack aborts the detonation, allowing Insight to launch. The team uses ''Zephyr One'' to destroy Insight, giving away their location as Chronicom leader Sibyl predicted while Coulson and May are arrested. Meanwhile, after capturing Johnson and Sousa, Nathaniel attempts to acquire Hydra scientist Daniel Whitehall's research on transplanting superhuman powers to others.

Peter Ringkoping has caused a stir within his family. Owner of a second hand bookstore, the ageing author has slowly receded from relationships with his relatives, preferring instead the company of the ghost-like figures of dead authors, who have composed the books that he sells on to his customers. A constant source of worry for his long-suffering wife, Alice, Peter’s whimsical nature becomes a cause for concern to his sons also, with his announcement that he intends to bequeath ‘Shangri-La’, ‘a sizeable tract of land’ on Tinmouth Mountain, to an old friend, Hans Strasser. The warden of a community for people with intellectual and emotional disabilities, Strasser hopes to make use of the land to further care for those in his care.

Worried that their father has either lost his mind or that he might be a victim of fraud, and frustrated at the prospect of losing part of their inheritance, Peter’s family protest the arrangement. Unmoved by their opposition, the elderly storekeeper decides to make the journey to Strasser’s community before signing the deed papers. Frustrated by his stubbornness, Peter’s sons, Nels and Tommy decide to accompany him, bringing along with them Tommy’s own son, Tip. At nineteen-years-old, Tip is still struggling with the problems of adolescence, and his search for his own identity has reached a crisis point, in his inability to divulge his love for a girl, Libba Vann. Throughout the journey, Tip writes a long letter to her that he will never send, in which he pours out his fears and hopes, and his general sense of disorientation. His father, Tommy, will also go on his own journey, as he begins to shed the immaturity that he has carried with him into middle-age, grappling with, and finally accepting, the inevitability of his own death, and accepting the realisation that he has to gainfully shoulder his responsibilities.

At the very centre of the group’s fraught journey, however, is the internal struggle of Nels, the eldest of Peter’s sons. A successful man, Nels has risen to become the headmaster of the Putnam preparatory school for boys. Rigidly obsessed with the importance of regulations and systems, Nels struggles to decide the fate of one of the boys, who has been caught taking advantage of some prescription drugs. Facing pressure from several members of staff, all of whom advise leniency, the situation is made even more complex by the news that the boy has committed suicide. Like Tommy, Nels is engaged in a struggle with the reality of his own mortality, and the tragedy of the death of one of his students brings him out of his neurotic obsession over the health of his heart and into deeper reflections.

The group’s physical journey ends upon their arrival at Strasser’s community. As the ageing Austrian takes them on a tour around the village he keeps watch over, he imparts a great deal of wisdom to each of the characters, inquiring after their lives and struggles, and speaking of the simple innocence of many of those that live in the community. Their internal pilgrimages, though greatly advanced by their journey together, are only just beginning, as is the restoration of their respective relationships with one another.

1996

The novel opens in August 1996 in New York City, where the narrator is enrolled in the Columbia University's prestigious Master of Fine Arts Writing program, and lives in a two-bedroom in Stuyvesant Town on the east side in Manhattan. The apartment is especially desirable because it's rent-stabilized, whereas most rents in Manhattan are exceedingly high. The narrator is however subletting illegally in the apartment, since the lease is under his great aunt's name, who has since moved to New Jersey.

During a writing workshop, the professor and other students criticize the narrator's writing, but one student, Billy Campbell, defends him. The narrator later meets Billy at a bar, and learns he is from a poor family, working as a bartender to make ends meet, and living in a storage room basement. The narrator offers his spare room at the apartment to Billy in exchange for Billy cooking a few nights a week. In addition, Billy agrees to clean the apartment once a week.

With minor disagreements, the narrator and Billy's relationship is warm at first. The narrator greatly admires Billy's writing talent, charisma, handsomeness, and success with women.

In December, the narrator and Billy take ecstasy with 2 women. The narrator accidentally touches Billy in a sexual manner, and Billy abruptly leaves. After this experience, Billy becomes cold and distant toward the narrator.

1997

During the next semester, another professor praises Billy's work while criticizing the narrator's. That night at the apartment, Billy hints that the narrator's writing is more "accountant-like" than "artist".

The MFA students receive a letter that a $7000 stipend is available for a rising second-year student, and applications need to submit a writing sample to apply. The narrator learns Billy plans to apply, and will presumably be able to move out of their shared apartment if he wins.

Billy begins to spend more time with other friends, and less with the narrator. The resentment between the two becomes more apparent. After feeling economically used by Billy, the narrator asks Billy to clean the bathroom. At a Super Bowl party, Billy mocks the narrator for never having a "real job" in front of several people. That night the narrator returns to the apartment, and dumps Billy's file cabinet and computer into the East River to prevent Billy from winning the stipend. To cover his tracks, the narrator tries to make the situation look like a burglary.

Billy returns to apartment shocked to find his computer and file cabinet missing, and convinces the reluctant narrator to file a claim through his great aunt's renter's insurance. The insurance company requires the police to be contacted in order to process the claim. The two agree that Billy will talk to the police alone.

After the semester concludes, the narrator receives a letter from his landlord ordering him to vacate the apartment since he is in violation of the lease for illegal subletting. Billy states that he admitted to the police he was living there illegally after being accused of falsely reporting an insurance claim. Billy tells the narrator he knows he staged the burglary to sabotage him, and that he plans to move out to live with two other classmates.

While the narrator is not charged criminally, the insurance company finds out and penalizes him thousands of dollars. As a result, the narrator's father stops paying his tuition. The narrator decides to drop out of school, move into another apartment with 3 other roommates, and work as a freelance copy editor.

This film is described in 1911 trade publications as "a powerful historical drama" of the famous battle off the coast of Spain, at Cape Trafalgar, on October 21, 1805. The motion picture's opening scenes, according to plot descriptions in those publications, portrayed Lord Nelson (Sydney Booth) at the Board of Admiralty in London in the weeks prior to the conflict. There he reveals his "wonderful plan of attack" against the French fleet, which was supported by warships of its Spanish ally.[http://archive.org/details/moviwor09chal/page/n839/mode/2up "'The Battle of Trafalgar' (Sept. 22)"], ''The Moving Picture World'' (New York, N.Y.), September 16, 1911, p. 822. Internet Archive. Retrieved June 6, 2020. After discussing the daring plan, Nelson and his fellow officers raise their drinking glasses and toast King George III and to Britain's success in defeating the naval forces of French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte.

The photoplay then shifted to scenes at sea aboard , Nelson's flagship. It is the day before the battle and officers are writing letters, perhaps their final messages, to their families and sweethearts. Lieutenant Prescott (Herbert Prior) is shown writing his fiancée (Laura Sawyer), who appears as a vision with "beautiful scenic and photographic effect". Advancing to the next day, the film depicted Nelson making a final entry in his personal diary and later on ''Victory'' bidding farewell to Captain Hardy (James Gordon) and other officers once the long line of enemy vessels is sighted on the horizon. Next, "splendidly portrayed" in the film, signal flags are hoisted aloft to relay the admiral's own simple but inspiring message to his crews across the British fleet: "England expects that every man will do his duty". Scenes then transitioned to the flagship's decks being cleared for action, followed by footage showing the battle itself with "the firing of the guns", "ships caught on fire", and close-up views of the battered ''Victory''. While the battle is raging, Nelson and Hardy are openly and calmly walking on the quarter deck giving commands. Suddenly, Nelson drops to his knees, struck down by a musket ball shot by a sniper aboard the adjacent French warship ''''Redoubtable''''. Mortally wounded, Lord Nelson is quickly carried below decks to the ship's cockpit. There in the film's final scenes, described as replete with "grandeur" and "pathos", the heroic admiral dies, but not until Hardy brings him news of the British fleet's overwhelming defeat of Napoleon's Franco-Spanish fleet.

Danny Kaye tells a group of Danish children the story of "The Emperor's New Clothes", from the point of view of Marmaduke, a smooth-talking, yet kindly trickster.

Marmaduke and his sidekick Mufti hear that a million gold pieces will be awarded to the tailor who makes the best clothes for the emperor. Marmaduke meets the emperor's daughter, Princess Jane, who tells him about the wicked jester, Jasper.

Jasper flatters the vain emperor with luxurious clothing, and is taking control of the empire. Jasper pays the tailors starvation wages, and gets rich himself. Marmaduke vows to stop Jasper, but the emperor has them thrown into the Boulevard of Rogues to work.

Marmaduke is patching up an old suit for the emperor. An orphan boy named Busky joins them. They finish the suit, and escape the boulevard, crossing a dangerous moat.

Marmaduke tells the emperor that he and Mufti have brought a beautiful suit for him. The emperor sees the ragged suit and orders them to leave. Marmaduke says he has enchanted cloth, invisible to anyone who is stupid or unfit to hold office. He pretends to show the emperor, who cannot admit that he cannot see it. Jasper plans to trick Jane into marriage.

Marmaduke, Mufti and Busky pretend to work on the suit that isn't there, as the emperor tries to educate himself so that he's smart enough to see the cloth. Jasper threatens to have his henchman Ivan fire the cannon at the Boulevard of Rogues. He threatens to take the prize money.

Marmaduke and his friends concoct a plan. Mufti makes fake coins from brass statues brought by Jane. Marmaduke presents the new suit to the emperor, who gives them the prize money in leather sacks. They hide the fake coins in Ivan's cannon, but Jasper orders them to stop. Real gold coins end up in the cannon.

Later, the emperor shows off his new "suit." The council gasps at the naked emperor, but Jasper gestures for all to applaud. Jasper tries to arrange a wedding with Jane, but Busky interrupts the procession by laughing and telling the emperor he is naked. The council agrees that the emperor is naked. Furious, the emperor banishes Jasper for allowing Marmaduke to trick him.

Busky gives the emperor a note explaining that Jane and Marmaduke are going to marry. Realizing that she loves Marmaduke, the emperor leads a parade through town to the Boulevard of Rogues, and attends the wedding naked. Jasper furiously orders Ivan to fire the cannon into the crowd. The cannon shoots out the golden coins, providing riches to the poor folks of the Boulevard. Mufti mourns the loss of the prize money but Marmaduke is happy as he kisses Jane.

A relative of story writer Sylvia Kavoukjian shared a story about her grandmother, who was a small child during this period of the Armenian Genocide. She had a friendship with a Turkish girl, and they eventually became characters in the film, but made older by Kavoukjian. The reason was that Kavoukjian wanted to include the character of Komitas and his music in the story, since he lived in the same time era of the Genocide, in order to present the characters as peers. This story would eventually become the seed of the film’s storyline. Nshanyan wanted to make it into a short film, but was persuaded by the producer, Asko Akopyan, to make it into a full feature film. Nshanyan then worked on the screenplay with screenwriter Audrey Gevorkian, and helped with pre-production.

The film was therefore centered around the music of Komitas. It also displays the life of Komitas (1869-1935) before and up to the Armenian Genocide.

Aftermath

On 16 March, it was announced that the anniversary week would be immediately followed by a two-hander episode between Finn and Susan. In the episode, broadcast on 23 March, after leaving the island Finn lures Susan to a cabin in the Snowy Mountains, bares his soul to her and eventually confesses his crimes before digging a shallow grave outside the cabin. Finn originally intends to start a new life with Susan and Aster. Mills told Alice Penwill from ''Inside Soap'' that his revenge plans on the island had been ruined. He believes that running away with Susan will solve his problems. Mills explained "Finn's trying to salvage something. Remember, he's not had a strong female role model in his life other than Susan." Mills described the grave digging scenes as a product of Finn not being "a good or safe head space" because he has mentally "unravelled". In an interview with Joe Julians from ''Radio Times'', Jackie Woodburne started that she was "thrilled" about doing a two-hander episode after seeing Episode 8052, which featured Eve Morey (Sonya Rebecchi) and Ryan Moloney (Toadfish Rebecchi). Mills told a ''Herald Sun'' reporter that he was honoured to make ''Neighbours'' "the Finn show" for one episode. Mills was required to cry frequently during filming and he stated that it came "really hard". The episode also helps viewers understand more about Finn's behaviour. He explained that "I don’t want to compare myself to Joaquin Phoenix in ''Joker'', but you can see the events and moments that led him there. The neglect from his parents, he didn’t fulfil his potential and a lot stems from his childhood. Trauma, PTSD, it all led him to crazy ways."

In the following day's episode, Elly finds Susan and Finn dies in a freak accident while preparing the grave, becoming the third death of the anniversary celebrations. Meanwhile, when the surviving characters return to Erisnborough flashback scenes detail their escape from the burning island, while Harlow and Sheila are informed of Prue and Gary's deaths. Subsequently, Elly is accused of causing Finn's death, with Mark and Sky both remaining in Erinsborough to investigate the crime. Elly is found guilty of involuntary manslaughter and imprisoned, but later released when it transpires that Finn's mother Claudia Watkins (Kate Raison) blackmailed her judge. This storyline also facilitated the return of Madeleine West to the series as Andrea Somers and Dee Bliss. Storylines over the coming weeks also explore the grief experienced by Harlow and Sheila, and the guilt of Susan and David Tanaka (Takaya Honda), who had neglected to recognise the danger Finn posed.

The action of the drama takes place in Ancient Rome around 222 CE. during the reign of Elagabalus. The basic motive of the play is the rebellion of Greek Irydion, son of Amfiloch, against the Romans - a transparent allusion to the tragedy of the Polish November Uprising. The story is focused on the dilemma that revolves around a contradiction between the legitimate and noble aim of overthrowing despotism and the more prosaic motivation of Irydion's actions (revenge) and the despicable means (deception, ruthlessness) he uses in order to advance his goal. The hero's tragedy results from taking premature actions, as well as the destructive influence of ancient fate.

Coco is a kind and daydreaming daughter of a dressmaker who aspires to become a witch; however because only innate magical users can practice and use magic, she has to give up on her dream. One day she meets a male witch named Qifrey and after she witnesses how he uses magic (by drawing magical runes and using magical ink), Coco accidentally casts a spell that turns her mother to stone.

As Coco does not know which magic spell she cast and Qifrey is tracking the sinister coven that could be behind the incident, he takes Coco as his apprentice in order to undo the spell and allow her to fulfill her dream. As it is gradually revealed, the coven in question—the Brimmed Caps—have taken an extraordinary interest in Coco, hoping that she will help them revive the free use of magic, which was outlawed because of the atrocities committed with it in past times, with some of their repercussions still enduring in Coco's world. Because rune magic can be effectively made by everyone, the Assembly carefully watches over any abuse of it, even going as so far as to erase the memories of any uninitiated (called "Outsiders") when they discover this secret. Thus, as Coco immerses herself into this new, wondrous world, a sinister plot begins to thicken around her.

The story revolves with the elegiac life of Chandrabati, 16th century woman poet of Bengali language. She is best known for her women-centered epic Ramayana. Her father Dijabangshi Das was also a poet. Chandrabati falls in love with another poet, Jayananda. But he leaves her for another woman. Heartbroken Chandrabati confine herself inside a Shiva temple and start rewriting the Ramayana.

The plotlines around Skiboy usually consist of dramatic events in his alpine home town, whether it is in the village, or on the slopes. Bandits seeking hidden treasures in the mountains interfere with Bobbie's curiosity, or mysterious things happen in the village or on the mountain faces. And rarely, might there be some romance that is cut unexpectedly by danger.

Aldovino the Astronomer gazes at the stars through his telescope, when he discovers the rocky and mountainous planet Mars, sparsely covered with various foliage and mushrooms. The planet is inhabited by a civilization unlike Aldovino's on Earth.

As Aldovino inspects the planet, he sees a beautiful young woman with a man in their observatory. The woman and Aldovino see each other from their home planets through their telescopes at the same time. Aldovino is struck by her beauty, and she waves invitingly to him. This sends Aldovino into a love frenzy to do whatever it takes to travel to the alien woman's planet and marry her.

Aldovino goes to the Telegraph and sends a radiotelegraph into space professing his love for the woman and asking for her hand in marriage. The letters of the radiotelegraph spiral through space, depicted as a swirling snake of letters. The letters arrive in the woman's observatory and are printed into a slip of paper by a machine. The radiotelegraph reads,

“Mars Daughter [sic], You are fine. I am loving you and I should like very much to marry you. Aldovin, [Terrestrial] Astronomer.”

The man in the observatory with the woman responds with his own radiotelegraph to Aldovino stating,

“If you want to marry my daughter come in a year [on] the Moon. Fur, Astronomer of Mars.”

The inhabitants of Fur's and his daughter's planet prepare for the wedding, while Aldovino begins constructing his spaceship. He successfully launches himself and his assistant to the moon in a cannon-ball-like spacecraft. Fur and his daughter use their own spacecraft which propels them to the moon.

Aldovino and the daughter of Mars finally meet, and a marriage ceremony takes place. Not long after, the couple are attacked by a group of humanoid aliens. Aldovino frightens the aliens away, and him and his new wife embrace. A group of dancing moon-maids arrive to celebrate their union, concluding the film.

One year after the Nightmare Hunts on Earth's Moon, ''Beyond Light'' focuses on Eramis the Shipstealer, a former Baroness of the House of Devils, now known as the Kell of Darkness, who plans to use the power of the Darkness to save her people and take revenge on the Traveler back on Earth, as she and many Fallen believe that the Traveler had abandoned them before the Golden Age of humanity. At the end of ''Season of Arrivals'', the Traveler reawakened to heal itself of its wounds incurred during The Red War three years ago to defend Earth from the encroaching Darkness—its Black Fleet of Pyramid ships had just consumed Io, Mars, Mercury, and Titan. ''Beyond Light'' begins in the immediate aftermath in which the Guardian is sent out across the Solar System to patrol for further evidence of the spreading Darkness. While on Jupiter's icy moon Europa, where the Darkness had invited the Guardian to discover an ancient power, the player's Ghost detects a distress call from Variks the Loyal, who was partly responsible for the Prison of Elders revolt that resulted in Cayde-6's death during ''Forsaken'' two years ago. Despite their wariness to his loyalty, the Guardian rescues Variks from a Fallen patrol. Variks warns them of Eramis, who has been named the new Kell of Kells; she has brought the Houses of the Fallen together as House Salvation to fight against those that are protected by the Traveler by using Stasis, a power of the Darkness that she has learned to wield and passed on to her lieutenants—Phylaks, the Warrior; Praksis, the Technocrat; Kridis, the Dark Priestess; and Atraks, the Wildcard—through Splinters of Darkness obtained from a Pyramid ship silently hovering over Europa's surface.

The Guardian finds themself quickly outmatched against Eramis' Stasis powers and retreats to safety. The Darkness then contacts the Guardian through Ghost, drawing them via a Crux of Darkness to a remote location on Europa overlooking the Pyramid ship where they find a Ziggurat facing it, as well as the Exo Stranger, last seen at the end of the original ''Destiny'' s campaign, alongside Eris Morn and the Drifter fighting off Fallen troops. The Exo Stranger explains that she comes from a different timeline where the Darkness won. Just as she had provided aid to the Guardian against the Vex six years ago, she has returned to the present time to help prevent the Darkness from claiming victory and causing a second Collapse. She helps guide the Guardian to defeat Eramis' lieutenants, collect their Splinters, and commune with the Darkness through its Cruxes and the Ziggurat to be able to harness Stasis for themselves as to be able to defeat Eramis herself, methods that both Ghost and Commander Zavala do not trust but recognize as the only solution. Along this route, the Guardian learns that part of Eramis' plan is to reactivate a Vex portal that was built by Clovis Bray I as part of his inhumane research into Exo development.

Ultimately, the Guardian is able to defeat Eramis and three of her lieutenants and comes to have full control over Stasis after embracing their own inner Darkness inside the Pyramid. While the immediate threat to humanity is ended, Zavala cautions the Guardian to make sure the Darkness they possess does not spread. Afterwards, the Stranger assists the Guardian in further controlling their Stasis powers so that they can use it to protect humanity. The Stranger also reveals that she is actually Elisabeth "Elsie" Bray, the granddaughter of Clovis Bray I and sister of Ana Bray, revived as an Exo due to a fatal illness; she also despises her grandfather for his experiments. The Guardian also continues to assist Variks to take down any remaining Fallen threats attempting to claim Eramis' vacant throne, as well as aid Fallen refugees in escaping Europa and return to Earth to join a good faction of Fallen, proper name Eliksni, called the House of Light, led by ally Mithrax, Kell of Light. In the course of the Guardian's efforts to decrypt Clovis I's research on Stasis, the Stranger comes face-to-face with Ana, who is appalled at Elsie and the Guardian's use of Darkness, as well as her sister's confession that she was forced to kill Ana in her dark future.

The Guardian is later contacted by the Exo Stranger, who has discovered that the remnants of House Salvation have located the fabled Deep Stone Crypt, a Clovis Bray facility that served as the birthplace of the Exos. Fearing that Eramis' followers are using the Crypt's Exo technology and secrets for their own nefarious ends, a fireteam of Guardians assembled by the Stranger make their way through the frozen Europan wasteland in the midst of a harsh blizzard to locate the facility ("Deep Stone Crypt" raid). The Guardians make their way through the Crypt after disabling its security systems, wherein they discover "Clarity Control", a Darkness statue similar to the one found in the Pyramid, which Clovis Bray I used to commune with the Darkness and utilize it alongside Vex technology to aid in the development of Exos. It is revealed that Clovis I combined Vex radiolarian fluid with concentrated Darkness to perfect the Exo program, cementing the link between mind and body, and achieving immortality for humanity. They find Atraks, the last of Eramis' lieutenants, who has been converted into an Exo herself called Atraks-1, Fallen Exo, using the Crypt's Exo technology and the Darkness from Clarity Control to rebuild Taniks, the Scarred. The fireteam defeats Atraks-1 while Taniks confronts the fireteam as they board a space station orbiting Europa called the ''Morning Star'', where Taniks activates its nuclear descent protocol to send the space station crashing down on the Jovian moon and decimate it upon impact; the Guardians manage to disarm the descent protocol as the station breaks apart and enters Europa's atmosphere. The fireteam manages to survive the crash and they emerge from the wreckage afterwards, finding themselves back at the entrance to the Deep Stone Crypt. As they investigate the ''Morning Star'' s wreckage, they discover that Taniks had also survived, who re-emerges as a grotesque mechanical being called Taniks, the Abomination. The Guardians defeat Taniks once and for all, securing the Deep Stone Crypt from further threats from House Salvation.

In the aftermath of Taniks' defeat, the Guardian continues to work with Variks and the Exo Stranger as remnants of the ''Morning Star'' perpetually rain down onto the surface of Europa, hoping to stop any Fallen from salvaging the debris for their own ends. As well, the Guardian is contacted by the artificial intelligence of Clovis Bray I, discovered to be a giant Exo head located deep within the Bray Exoscience facility. Further investigation reveals that Banshee-44, who fell unconscious at the same time the ''Morning Star'' was destroyed, is in fact the Exo form of the real Clovis Bray. Clovis-43 asked the Stranger to modify his memories so that upon his next reset, he would have no memory of the name Clovis Bray I or what the man had done. Banshee is disturbed by the revelation, but accepts it begrudgingly. Banshee assists the Guardian in finding and repairing the Lament, an exotic sword with a chainsaw blade used by Clovis during his war with the Vex on Europa. Banshee vows to never become his former, tyrannical self. Shortly after, Elsie and Ana reconcile to confront the giant Clovis AI together. Ana comes to understand Elsie's actions in killing her in that dark future while Elsie apologizes from withholding the truth, stating she was trying to protect Ana. The two sisters agree to work together and then confront Clovis and proclaim that they will use the Darkness to protect humanity from evil like him, instead of what Clovis had intended, which was to use it for research purposes only to continue the legacy of the Bray name.

''Season of the Hunt''

Shortly after Eramis' defeat and in the midst of the Guardian's continued efforts to drive back remaining Fallen threats on Europa, Commander Zavala informs the Guardian that the former Warlock Vanguard Osiris has been trying to assess the damage done by the Darkness' return. Osiris was investigating the Scarlet Keep on Earth's Moon in his belief that Xivu Arath—the Hive God of War and youngest sister to Oryx, the Taken King and Savathûn, the Witch Queen—would take advantage of the chaos. Osiris' Ghost, Sagira, was slain by the High Celebrant of Xivu Arath, leaving him Lightless. Sent to the Moon to save Osiris, the Guardian finds him on the hunt for the High Celebrant to avenge Sagira. Osiris is nearly killed by a Hive Knight in the Shrine of Oryx before he is rescued by a resurrected Uldren Sov, now a Guardian calling himself the Crow—upon resurrection, Guardians have no memories of their past life from before becoming a Guardian. Crow tells them that his boss, the Spider, wants to see them. At his safehouse on the Tangled Shore, Spider reveals that the High Celebrant is using artifacts of Darkness called cryptoliths to corrupt Cabal, Fallen, and other Hive into a mindless, enraged army called Wrathborn, and proposes a partnership with the Guardian, offering his resources to help end the threat. Spider confides to the Guardian that he found the newly-reborn Uldren wandering the Reef and employed him, knowing the murderer of Cayde-6 would likely be killed again for his crime if he had been sent to the Last City. However, Spider secretly rigged Crow's Ghost, Glint (formerly Pulled Pork), with a bomb in case he were to go rogue, and warns the Guardian not to inform Crow of his former self. Meanwhile, the Awoken Queen, Mara Sov, informs the system of her intent to return to reality, confront Savathûn, and end the Dreaming City's curse.

Over the next few weeks, the Guardian assists Crow in hunting various Fallen and Hive Wrathborn, namely Savek and HKD-1 on the Tangled Shore and Dul Arath and Xillox in the Dreaming City. Crow begins experiencing dreams of a hawk and several places he had traveled to in his previous life as Uldren Sov. Fearing these may be signs of a larger catastrophe approaching, the Guardian investigates these locations but instead discovers that Crow's dreams are paracausal remnants left by the Traveler, a message that leads them to discover and reforge Hawkmoon, a weapon of Light reborn by the Traveler to fight the Darkness. Through this, the Guardian grows to finally see that Crow is not the same person who killed Cayde-6, and the pair develop a strong relationship.

Crow and Osiris eventually uncover the location of the High Celebrant in the Dreaming City, and Crow joins the Guardian in assassinating the Ascendant Hive Knight. As a reward, Spider promises the Guardian any prize from his lair, to which the Guardian responds by liberating Crow from his bondage under his boss. Spider reluctantly honors the deal, ordering the two to leave his lair. A grateful Crow questions why the Guardian freed him, to which the Guardian proclaims that Crow is also a Guardian. Shortly after, Spider has his engineers to remove the bomb from Glint, while Crow says he will remain on the Tangled Shore for a little while longer to help hunt down any remaining Wrathborn. In the final week of the season, Crow decides that he will leave the Reef. He said he thought about going off and exploring remote locations, like the planet Venus, but Osiris convinced him that he should come to the Tower, despite what others may think of him based on his previous life, and Crow proudly accepts himself as a Guardian.

''Season of the Chosen''

Following the defeat of Dominus Ghaul at the end of the Red War over three years ago, Caiatl, who helped Ghaul rise to power and is the daughter of the exiled Emperor Calus, declared herself the Empress of the Cabal. She has since been piecing the fractured Cabal back together with her army of chosen warriors. Shortly after Caiatl's ascension to the throne as Empress, Xivu Arath led an attack on Torobatl, the Cabal homeworld, with the aid of Savathûn, driving Caiatl and her forces from it. In her attempts to bring the remnants of the Red Legion under her command, she finds that several lingering outposts were corrupted by the Hive cryptoliths that created the Wrathborn. Her plans to locate and capture her estranged father were also halted due to the invading Pyramid fleet of the Darkness. With Xivu Arath pushed back as a result of the Guardian's efforts in defeating the Wrathborn, Caiatl comes to Earth to seek a possible truce with the Vanguard by inviting Commander Zavala to her War Council to team up against the Hive and the Darkness, but demands Zavala and Osiris bow to her alongside the offer. Zavala refuses, and Caiatl instead marks the Guardians as enemies alongside the Hive, proclaiming that she will see them on the battlegrounds.

Afterwards, Zavala explains to the Guardians that Caiatl is mounting an army to fight against humanity. As disgraced Cabal factions join Caiatl's forces, Zavala establishes a task force out of the H.E.L.M. (Hub for Emergency Logistics and Maneuvers) in the Tower, consisting of himself, Lord Saladin, Osiris, Crow (who wears a mask to hide his face), Amanda Holliday (providing air support and intel), and the Guardians to challenge various Cabal commanders—namely, Commander Dracus and Ixel, the Far-Reaching on Nessus, Basilius the Golem on Europa, and Val Ma'rag on Earth's Cosmodrome—and weaken Caiatl's forces to prevent her from gaining too much power. From data collected on Nessus, Crow discovers the Cabal are using Vex prediction engines to study futures where Zavala has been killed, and with the player's Guardian's help, suspects that Caiatl is plotting to assassinate Zavala by temporarily disabling his Ghost using a Light-disruptor created from stolen City tech. After a failed assassination attempt on Zavala by a Cabal Psion, during which Zavala almost sees Crow without his mask, Osiris assigns Crow to be Zavala's bodyguard, though acting from a distance and never to show his face to him due to his past life.

Amid this offensive, a Vanguard communication is received from a Cabal ship, the ''Glykon'', lingering out in the Reef, which had left Earth along with Emperor Calus' fleet when the Darkness arrived in the system, but had since gone off course. Zavala tells the player's Guardian that it appears to be from another Guardian that was investigating the ship, and asks the player's Guardian to follow up. Aboard the drifting craft, the Guardian finds it has been taken over by the Scorn, led by the Locus of Communion, with the Cabal crew long dead. After battling the Scorn and the Locus, the Guardian finds the remains of a Hunter named Katabasis (later revealed to be one of Calus' Shadows), and recovers his prized exotic scout rifle, the Dead Man's Tale, which they bring back to Zavala as part of their report. The Guardian further investigates the ''Glykon'' each week, receiving communication from Osiris and Caiatl, who believed that Calus was on the ship or at least information there could lead her to him. It is revealed that Calus had visited the ship while his Loyalists aboard had captured Scorn from the Tangled Shore and experimented on them using the Crown of Sorrow in an attempt for Calus to commune with the Darkness. The Guardian eventually finds the Crown of Sorrow itself hidden in a room below the remains of Katabasis, where Osiris makes arrangements for the Vanguard to extract the Hive artifact from the ''Glykon'' for containment, despite Caiatl's concerns about keeping it intact.

After weeks of battling Caiatl's commanders and after the assassination attempt, Zavala decides to challenge Caiatl to the ceremonial Rite of Proving to settle their dispute, with each side sending their best champions to fight. A team of three Guardians successfully best Caiatl's chosen warriors, led by Ignovun, Chosen of Caiatl, aboard her land tank on Nessus, the Halphas Electus, and Caiatl agrees to a truce and withdraw the Cabal from Earth. Caiatl and Zavala meet to agree to terms on a blood oath, but a rogue Psion attempts to assassinate Zavala again. Caiatl orders the Psion captured, asserting she had no knowledge of the plot, while in defending Zavala, Crow's mask is accidentally removed, revealing himself. Although surprised at first, Zavala lends a hand in gratitude. Back in the H.E.L.M., Crow says he felt that Zavala understood who he was and that it was relieving to not have to hide behind his mask, but he was ordered to lay low for the time being. Zavala also ordered Crow to go on a reconnaissance mission to continue to scout the Cabal. In a debriefing with Zavala, he is troubled that the truth of Crow had been kept from him and wonders if there are other secrets, while he also has unease over Caiatl's truce. Also as part of the agreement, any Cabal that elect to remain on Earth are no longer under Caiatl and are left to the Guardians to do as they see fit.

''Season of the Splicer''

Following the armistice between Empress Caiatl and the Vanguard, the Vex find a way to plunge the Last City into a simulation of an endless night. The Warlock Vanguard Ikora Rey and her former mentor Osiris cannot determine the means to stop it. Ikora suggests the Guardian seek Mithrax, the Kell of House Light, who has been aiding Variks to evacuate Eliksni survivors from Europa from the Vex and the remains of Eramis' Fallen forces. Mithrax is revealed to be a Sacred Splicer, who has extensive knowledge on the Vex beyond that of the Vanguard. On Europa, after finding the remains of a skiff brought down by Vex forces in the area, the Guardian finds Mithrax protecting a small group of Eliksni survivors. Still uncertain of his trust in humanity and the Vanguard, Mithrax offers to show the Guardian how to enter a Vex simulation as to distract them and steal key data, giving himself enough time to continue the Eliksni evacuation. After the Guardian successfully hacks the Vex network, Ikora offers Mithrax and the House of Light refuge in the Last City, with the support of Osiris and Lakshmi-2, the leader of the Future War Cult, one of three factions of the Last City who use Vex technology to foresee the future rife with war. While most of the Eliksni take up shelter in the abandoned Botza District (as previously featured in the "Scourge of the Past" raid in Season 5, ''Season of the Forge''), a number remain in the Tower as a new wing of the H.E.L.M. is opened to oversee operations related to the new Vex offensive. Mithrax continues his Eliksni evacuation on Europa but instructs the Vanguard remotely through a scavenged House Salvation Servitor at the H.E.L.M. on means to improve their infiltration and hacking of the Vex simulations. Meanwhile, Lakshmi secretly contacts the Guardian through a secure channel, informing them of a vision she had of the Fallen invading the Last City; citing the Vanguard's refusal to heed her warning about the Red War years prior, she is determined to drive out the House of Light from the Last City. Saint-14 also takes issue with helping the Eliksni, as he believes that their scarce resources should only be used to help the people of the Last City during this endless night.

Over the weeks, the Guardians continue to tackle Vex simulations appearing on Europa, Earth's Moon, and the Tangled Shore and hack into their network and defeating the Subjugated Minds Tacitas, Portunos, and Thesmotae within them, slowly weakening the endless night shrouding the Last City. Additionally, the Guardians attempt to collapse domains of the Vex network by defeating the Oppressive Minds Fantis, Dikast, and Dimio. Lakshmi, however, continues to broadcast her own propaganda to the people of the City, inciting hate toward the House of Light, while also singing a tune of unity for the people of the City that eerily has the same melody as Savathûn's song. At some point, Mithrax and Lakshmi get into an argument over sabotaged resources meant for the Eliksni, forcing the Guardian and Saint to intervene. Saint attempts to reason with Mithrax by citing humanity's fear of the Fallen, but Mithrax responds by citing Saint as a monster himself in the Eliksni's eyes, telling a story of Saint's genocide of his people. Saint takes this to heart, and becomes empathetic towards the Eliksni.

During a routine mission to collapse a Vex network domain, Mithrax discovers that the Dreaming Mind Quria, Blade Transform, a Taken Vex Axis Mind that serves Savathûn (previously referenced in ''Destiny'' s ''The Taken King'' expansion), was able to invade the Vex network and turn it against the Vex by corrupting it with Taken energy. It is also discovered that Savathûn, through Quria's control over the Vex network, is responsible for the endless night simulation, which has strengthened with Taken Blights appearing throughout the Tower and the Last City. The Guardian's mission then changes to now drive the Taken out of the Vex network to expose and destroy Quria and foil Savathûn's schemes. After discussing the matter with Osiris and Ikora, the latter intends to keep the news secret within the Vanguard. However, Lakshmi was able to learn the truth via anonymous sources. As she attempts to broadcast to the people of the Last City, Ikora intervenes and asks the citizens to unite with the Vanguard and the Eliksni to drive out the Vex threat. After navigating through several Taken-overcome Vex simulations to triangulate Quria's position for Mithrax, the Guardian fights through a final layered simulation filled with Taken and Vex forces and defeats Quria, seemingly ending the immediate threat to the Last City, and the endless night simulation begins to slowly dissipate. Lakshmi seems grateful that the immediate threat is gone, however, she still does not have faith in the current Vanguard's leadership, believing Ikora and Zavala should be replaced.

Despite the city returning to a peaceful state after Quria's defeat, Lakshmi continues to fear the Eliksni presence. She announces a city-wide sweep of all the Eliksni by the Future War Cult and New Monarchy, claiming Osiris is helping them, to isolate them to the Botza District and use Vex technology to try to open a rift to exile the Eliksni through, but they are overwhelmed by Vex that emerge from the portal. While the Guardian enters the rift to close it, Mithrax and Saint work together to protect the Eliksni from the Vex, and are soon joined by other Vanguard members. They are unaware of Osiris, watching these events from afar before departing. In the aftermath, Saint believes they have entered a new era of peace between humanity and Eliksni due to their combined efforts. Meanwhile, Ikora finds that Lakshmi was killed and most of the Future War Cult members scattered, and that Dead Orbit and New Monarchy had left Earth, dismantling the factions within the Tower and the Last City. She also worries that Osiris is still missing, and that he need only reveal himself to clear his name from Lakshmi's implications. A joint memorial is established in the Tower's main courtyard to honor both the human and Eliksni lives lost to the Vex incursion.

During the course of these events, lore pages reveal that Savathûn has been able to possess some of the minds of the residents of the Last City, preparing them as sleeper agents for the Worm.

''Season of the Lost''

Following the Vex incursion of the Last City and defending the Eliksni from the Vex, Osiris' role in Lakshmi's rebellion is brought into question, and Ikora orders for his arrest. Learning that Osiris may be hiding in the Dreaming City, Saint-14, Crow, and the Guardian go to retrieve him, with Crow helping them navigate through the Ascendant Realm to bypass Scorn, Hive, and Taken forces. They find Osiris in the presence of Mara Sov, Queen of the Awoken people, who had returned to the Dreaming City after failing to stop the Pyramids of the Black Fleet. She at first is surprised to see Crow, but then realizes that he has become a Guardian and has no memories from being her brother Uldren whom she thought was dead. Osiris taunts how Crow has been treated by the Vanguard before revealing that he has actually been Savathûn ever since the Guardian appeared to rescue him from the Moon. Savathûn, now held prisoner in a giant crystal cocoon by Mara, assures the real Osiris is safe, having rescued him from her sister, Xivu Arath. Savathûn took his form to influence and guide the Vanguard since they "rescued" him. Now, the Witch Queen is being threatened by the God of War, with the Taken, Hive, Scorn, and Wrathborn now under her command to seize the Ascendant Realm. The two queens have come to an understanding; Savathûn has helped Mara to learn of the location of several of her Techeuns trapped in the Ascendant Realm, and by tracking ley lines in the Realm using the Wayfinder's Compass to rescue them, they can help Mara protect Savathûn from Xivu Arath until they rescue enough of her Techeuns to free the Witch Queen of her worm. Saint and Ikora are wary of this deal, given that Savathûn is known for her lies and trickery, but the Vanguard agree to help with freeing the trapped Techeuns for Mara, even if this helps Xivu Arath's own forces locate weak spots within the Ascendant Realm.

Crow, also concerned about the deal, is more upset about the deception behind Osiris, whom he considered a good friend, and demands to seek answers from Savathûn, but Mara and her Queen's Wrath, Petra Venj, order him to stay far away from the Witch Queen, feeling that he would be deceived again, as he was in his previous life as Uldren. Mara also holds some contempt for how the Vanguard has treated Crow, recognizing a glimmer of Uldren's personality within him, and urges the Guardians to help protect him. To aid in their battles with Xivu Arath's forces, Mara helps the Guardian relocate Ager's Scepter, a weapon created for Uldren from the same materials as the Compass but hidden away by him before he had become Crow. Eventually, Crow finally gains an audience with Savathûn, who ultimately reveals to him his previous life as Uldren Sov. Traumatized by this revelation, Crow begs Ikora to reassign him elsewhere in order to stay far away from the Witch Queen. The Guardian eventually rescues enough of Mara's Techeuns to begin the ritual to expunge Savathûn' worm, but it is a process that will take time, and Mara fears that Xivu Arath will use that time to gather her forces and strike at the critical juncture of the ritual.

At the conclusion of the season, Mara informs the Guardian that preparations are complete for the ritual to exorcise Savathûn's worm. The Guardian returns to the Dreaming City and fights through Xivu Arath's forces alongside Petra Venj and the Corsairs to reach the ritual site, where Mara, her Techeuns, as well as Saint-14 have gathered together with the entrapped Savathûn. As Mara and the Techeuns perform the exorcism ritual, the Guardian and Saint fend off the last of Xivu Arath's forces. Savathûn's cocoon breaks open at the end of the ritual, revealing an unconscious Osiris, but Savathûn herself flees using her own magic the moment her cocoon shattered, thanking Mara and the Guardian for freeing her. The Guardian then debriefs with Mara, who is disappointed that Savathûn had fled before she could strike her down after exorcising the worm, but also relieved that the Witch Queen kept her end of the bargain by returning Osiris to the Vanguard, and also reveals she has the Worm captive. She advises the Guardian to prepare for the battles to come with the Witch Queen. The Guardian then speaks with Saint, who thanks them for rescuing Osiris and returning him to the Tower, while also furious that the Witch Queen had took his form to manipulate the Vanguard. Saint advises the Guardian that he will need time to help with Osiris' recovery, and swears vengeance against Savathûn for her actions and deception.

The events of ''Destiny 2: The Witch Queen'' follow.

''The Witch Queen'' centers on the titular Savathûn, who along with her siblings Oryx, the Taken King, and Xivu Arath, the Hive God of War, lead the Hive, an undead species that serve the Worm Gods and are closely aligned with the behavior of the Darkness and its Pyramids of the Black Fleet. The Hive follow the Sword Logic, a religious belief that living beings can only justify their existence to live through combat, a tenet that is diametrically opposite to that of the Light, the Traveler, and those that have allied with it, including humanity and the Vanguard.

Unlike her siblings' focus on combat, Savathûn's methods to serve the Worm Gods has been based on subterfuge and trickery, and had taken steps to prevent the Vanguard from contacting the Darkness as it entered the Solar System (as depicted during ''Season of Arrivals''). During the events of ''Beyond Light'' a year ago, Savathûn had further manipulated the Vanguard. She claimed to have rescued a weakened Osiris from Xivu Arath from within the Ascendant Realm. She then took his form to influence the Vanguard into strategic alliances with factions of the Cabal and Fallen. During ''Season of the Lost'', Savathûn revealed her true form but was held captive by Queen Mara Sov of the Reef. She made a deal with Mara: she helps to recover the lost Techeuns from the Ascendant Realm and returns Osiris in exchange for Mara's protection from Xivu Arath and her freedom from the Worm Gods, a deal that the Vanguard were wary of. Mara's ritual was successful with the assistance of her rescued Techeuns and she was able to capture Savathûn's worm, but Savathûn herself escaped, leaving behind Osiris' true body.

''The Witch Queen'' begins shortly after Mara's ritual at the end of ''Season of the Lost''. The planet Mars has suddenly reappeared after being taken by the Darkness over a year ago at the end of ''Season of Arrivals''. The Vanguard and Ikora Rey's Hidden intelligence agents explore the planet. Ikora and Eris Morn discover evidence of more Darkness artifacts sent by the Pyramids. They find nearby Cabal activity looking to destroy Savathûn's Hive ship, and the player's Guardian instead uses a Cabal weapon to board the ship and chase down Savathûn. Aboard, they discover that Savathûn is able to wield the power of Light and used that to infuse her Hive warriors, known as the Lucent Brood, with powers similar to that of the Guardians. After defeating a Lightbearer Knight and destroying its Ghost, the Guardian is then lured into Savathûn's Throne World, where they face more of the Lucent Hive and eventually Savathûn herself, who escapes and expels the Guardian from her Throne World.

The Guardian ends up back on Mars where they communicate with Ikora, bewildered over the fact that Savathûn had stolen the Light for herself and for her Hive warriors, but Ikora explains that it is unlike Savathûn to show her face easily being the Hive god of cunning and lies. Ikora concludes that due to Savathûn and her Hive now being able to wield the Light, the morality between Light and Darkness has increasingly become blurred. Noticing a Darkness artifact that the Guardian had obtained from Savathûn's ship, Ikora asks them to visit the nearby Pyramid Relic. The Guardian activates the Relic by using the artifact, which gives them a power of the Darkness called Deepsight. The Relic also creates a weapon out of the artifact, a glaive called The Enigma, for the Guardian to use in combat; the Guardian is also granted the ability to shape their own weapons through the Relic. Ikora then explains that the Relic also has the ability to manipulate time, hence temporal distortions were appearing throughout Mars, but wonders why Savathûn would go after it. She then orders the Guardian to return to Savathûn's Throne World to search for more answers, while giving the Guardian the Synaptic Spear, a Cabal artifact infused with Light-suppression technology, to aid them in the battles to come.

Returning to the Throne World, the Guardian is contacted by Fynch, a Hive Ghost who regrets joining Savathûn's forces and has refused to revive his Hive Lightbearer. Fynch tells the Guardian to investigate Xivu Arath's temple in the Throne World, where they manage to find the shell of Sagira, Osiris' Ghost who sacrificed herself to save his life at the beginning of ''Season of the Hunt''. Upon recovering Sagira's shell, the Guardian's Deepsight power triggers a psychic imprint, which reveals an old memory of Savathûn talking about a mysterious being called the Witness. Believing that the Guardian's new power may uncover more secrets, Ikora asks them to return to the Pyramid on Europa. On Europa, the Guardian battles Cabal forces who have defected from Empress Caiatl's army to search for trinkets of Darkness, and eventually reaches the Darkness statue and communes with it, enhancing their Deepsight ability. Returning to Mars, Ikora informs the Guardian of a location in the Throne World with high concentration of psychic energy, and instructs them to take Sagira's shell there. Using Deepsight, the Guardian navigates the caverns in the Throne World until they reach a portal, which takes them to the Altar of Reflection. Here, they use Sagira's shell to fully uncover Savathûn's memory, which reveals that the Witness is the entity who controls the Darkness, and that Savathûn had used her time in disguise as Osiris to learn something about the Light.

Afterwards, Fynch contacts the Guardian again, this time tipping them to a possible lead within Oryx's temple in the Throne World. The Guardian heads to Oryx's temple, where they battle against one of Oryx's foster sons, Alak-Hul, resurrected as a Lightbearer Hive. Upon defeating Alak-Hul, the Guardian recovers the Tablets of Ruin, which were used by Oryx to create the Taken. Returning to the Altar of Reflection, the Guardian uncovers a second memory from Savathûn, where she reveals that the Witness has the power to move worlds between different realities, and that she intends to move the Traveler to her Throne World and seal it away. After reporting to Ikora, the Guardian follows up on another lead from Fynch and travels to the temple of Sathona (Savathûn's previous form prior to her transformation into a Hive god). The Guardian finds Sathona's statue, holding onto a worm familiar. With no other objects of interest, the Guardian recovers the familiar, which triggers an illusion of an Ahamkara. The Guardian defeats the illusion of the wish-dragon, then escapes the temple with the worm familiar. However, the Altar of Reflection refuses to let the Guardian enter with the worm, forcing them to reconvene with Ikora.

On Mars, Commander Zavala confronts Ikora on keeping the investigation secret from him. Ikora, unable to trust in her judgment, takes a temporary leave. Eris informs the Guardian of a new lead, which she later reveals to be from Mara Sov. The Guardian enters the apothecary wing of Savathûn's palace, where they are instructed to recover a crystal shard which was part of Mara's spell to imprison Savathûn in the Dreaming City during ''Season of the Lost''. The Guardian recovers the shard, which allows them to enter the Altar this time. They then uncover the memory, which reveals that Savathûn died in the outskirts of the Last City some time after escaping the Dreaming City following the exorcism ritual, only to be resurrected by the Traveler willingly. Savathûn then appears before the Guardian, thanking them for helping her remember her past life, before attempting to kill them. The Guardian escapes and returns to the Tower, where they attend a meeting with the Vanguard and brief Zavala on the revelation. Ikora resolves to stop Savathûn at all costs, in spite of the Traveler's action. She later deduces that the worm familiar object recovered from Sathona's statue may have been the actual familiar of her father, the Osmium King, calcified from age. She then takes the familiar to the Relic on Mars, which reveals a memory of young Sathona prior to the Traveler's arrival on her homeworld of Fundament. Billions of years ago, the Worm Gods were sealed in the core of Fundament while the Traveler prepared to grant the proto-Hive a Golden Age, as it would later do for the Fallen and humanity. The memory depicts the Witness coming up with a plan to trick Sathona into freeing the Worm Gods by framing the Traveler for an imminent cataclysm.

Ikora informs the Guardian that Savathûn is already performing a ritual to pull the Traveler into her Throne World and seal it away, and instructs them to use Sathona's memory to disrupt her ritual. The Guardian arrives in the Throne World and battles the Lucent Hive and the Scorn, before finally facing Savathûn once more. Arriving at the ritual site, the Guardian kills Savathûn's Threadweavers, severing their web that connects to the Traveler, then unveils Sathona's memory, which confuses and enrages Savathûn. With the tables turned on the Witch Queen, the Guardian engages in one final showdown with Savathûn and successfully kills her. In her dying breath, Savathûn smugly warns the Guardian and Ghost that the Witness is coming. Savathûn's Ghost, Immaru, manages to escape as the Traveler is returned to Earth. Meanwhile, somewhere in space, the Witness prepares the Black Fleet for one final assault on the Solar System. Following Savathûn's defeat, the Vanguard recovers her remains, while the Guardian continues to work with Fynch to disrupt the Lucent Hive's activities. Fynch reveals to Ikora and the Guardian that Savathûn keeps a wellspring of Light energy, which she uses to distribute Light to her Brood. Ikora deploys Guardians regularly to attack Hive forces protecting the Wellspring, as well as defend it from Scorn invaders.

In the wake of Savathûn's demise, Mara Sov arrives on Mars to meet with the Guardian. She presents them with Savathûn's dying worm, revealing that the Witch Queen herself was present on behalf of the Witness during the Collapse, and both she and her worm knew of the secret that prevented humanity's end during that event. Mara proposes reviving the worm and giving it a new host, seemingly volunteering for the task herself. Mara sends the Guardian to find the Dark City, a city with Pyramid-like architecture shrouded in Darkness within the Throne World, where the Guardian can find Hive Cryptoglyphs to revitalize the worm, and incubators to infuse it. The Guardian battles Scorn forces within the Dark City and eventually acquires a set of Cryptoglyphs and reaches an incubator, but only manages to partially revive the worm. The Guardian contacts Fynch, who points them toward more incubators hidden around the Throne World. After finding runes to repair the Cryptoglyphs, the Guardian finds the incubators and revives the worm, who speaks to them. The worm reveals that Mara plans to kill Eris, Crow, and the Guardian, to which she affirms, but only as a contingency should they fall to the Darkness's control. After fully revitalizing the worm, Savathûn's curse triggers, causing its energy to quickly deplete. The Guardian takes the worm to Savathûn's palace and uses Hive wells to heal it. Afterwards, Mara contacts them and instructs them to recover concentrated Hive Light to stabilize the worm, before performing the ritual. After meeting up with Mara in Xivu Arath's temple, she infuses the worm into a grenade launcher and hands it to the Guardian, who then defends Mara from Scorn forces while she finishes the ritual. Afterwards, the worm reveals that during the Collapse, Savathûn deceived the Witness and sent it away to protect the Traveler, inadvertently preventing humanity's extinction in the process. Mara asks the Guardian to keep the Parasite grenade launcher, and the worm itself, a secret.

Sometime later, a fireteam of Guardians decide to investigate a sunken Pyramid ship in the outskirts of Savathûn's Throne World, where they are contacted by Mara, who warns them that unlike the Pyramids they encountered on the Moon and Europa, they are not being beckoned by it, but within resides the first Disciple; the Disciples are revealed to be extremely powerful entities who collectively follow and do the bidding of the Witness. With Savathûn defeated, the Disciple now wishes to take control of the Throne World from within the Pyramid by using the Scorn ("Vow of the Disciple" raid). Rhulk, Disciple of the Witness, contacts the Guardians as they approach the Pyramid and beckons them into it. Upon entering the Pyramid after escorting a Darkness barge through the swamp guarded by Scorn forces, the Guardians fight their way through, activating obelisks of Darkness and eventually defeating the Caretaker, an empowered Scorn Abomination that was a successful result of an experiment by Rhulk using worm larvae produced by a catatonic Worm God, Xita, the Nurturing Worm. The Guardians also discover that the Pyramid hosted a twisted, museum-like collection of artifacts, murals and experiments curated by Rhulk himself, including a massive rib bone taken from the Leviathan of Fundament, as well as calcified and dissected worm larvae and Scorn. It is also revealed that Rhulk also used Xita to produce worm larvae for Savathûn's Hive and for his experiments on the Scorn. Soon after battling through legions of Scorn and Taken using artifacts of Light and Darkness, the Guardians eventually reach the heart of the Pyramid, atop a massive Darkness monolith called the Upended, powered by the catatonic Xita, where they are greeted by Rhulk himself, revealed to be a mysterious yet bloodthirsty alien entity, who attacks them. After an arduous battle, the Guardians kill Rhulk once and for all, eliminating a major threat of the Witness.

Shortly after Rhulk's defeat, the Guardian returns to Fynch, who congratulates them on their efforts in defeating the Disciple of the Witness, but warns them that the Scorn may be seeking an opportunity to control the Pyramid. Fynch advises the Guardian to return to the Pyramid and defend it from Scorn forces seeking to plunder the secrets within. The Guardian then returns to the Enclave on Mars and finds a note left by Mara Sov on the Hidden's evidence board, confirming the situation. The Guardian returns to the Pyramid, where they discover that the Scorn are attempting to empower themselves using a combination of worm larvae and Pyramid technology. After wiping out the Scorn forces, the Guardian takes the opportunity to learn more about the origins of Rhulk, revealed to be the last surviving member of a warrior alien species from the planet Lubrae, and was taken in by the Witness as its first Disciple after he annihilated his entire planet of all life. It is also revealed that Rhulk was responsible for the creation of the Hive; upon meeting the Worm Gods in the core of Fundament and subjugating them, Rhulk had created a strain of worm larvae from the imprisoned Xita that would be implanted into the proto-Hive, turning them into undead soldiers that would feed off of death and conquest. The Guardian is then deployed to the Pyramid regularly by Mara to protect it from the Scorn and keep it under Vanguard control.

''Season of the Risen''

Shortly after the Guardian's skirmish with the Cabal on Mars, the Guardian returns to the Tower where they witness a tense meeting between Zavala, Lord Saladin, Crow, and Empress Caiatl, in response to the death of her soldiers on Mars. Hoping to put the incident behind them, Zavala explains to Caiatl that the Lucent Brood have begun to invade the Solar System from Savathûn's Throne World and requests for her help, to which she agrees. The Guardian then meets with Caiatl and Saladin in the H.E.L.M., where they request the Guardian to engage in psychic warfare against the Lucent Hive by using the Synaptic Spear given to them by Ikora. Using the Spear, the Guardian infiltrates one of the Lucent Hive's strongholds in the European Dead Zone, leading them to a Lucent Hive lieutenant, Mor'ak, Lightstealer. After weakening the Hive lieutenant, Caiatl's Psions capture it and they send the Guardian into its mindscape to sever its connection to the Light. After successfully crippling the lieutenant, the Guardian then transports it back to the H.E.L.M., where Saladin contacts the Guardian again and reveals that the Lucent Hive are now going after Guardians to drain them of their Light for unknown purposes. He advises the Guardian to continue to capture more Lucent Hive lieutenants until they can better understand their motives.

After capturing a second Hive lieutenant, Uul'nath, Lightcleanser, in the Cosmodrome, the Guardian witnesses Saladin and Crow argue in the H.E.L.M. over the ethics of their actions against the Hive. Crow, who is still recovering after Savathûn invaded his mind, suggests that the Hive lieutenants should be killed out of mercy rather than being probed for information; Saladin, despite disagreeing with the Vanguard and the Cabal's method, affirms that they should not show kindness toward the Hive. Later, Saladin speaks with the Guardian and expresses his concern over Crow's mentality. Over the course of the operation, Saladin also begins to understand and empathize with the Cabal, no longer showing aggression toward his former enemies.

Eventually, Saladin learns that the Lucent Hive intends to wrestle control of the Scarlet Keep on Earth's Moon from Xivu Arath's forces, in order to perform a ritual and manifest Savathûn's Throne World. The Guardian arrives on the Moon to stop the ritual, though the Vanguard is unable to contact Crow for recon assistance. Nevertheless, the Guardian succeeds in capturing the Lucent Hive lieutenant, Korosek, Thronebringer, in charge of the ritual. They later return to the H.E.L.M. with Saladin, and learn that Crow attempted to shut down the psychic analysis machinery housing the Hive lieutenants, inadvertently killing Caiatl's Psion emissary in the process. Caiatl later confronts the Vanguard and demands Crow's life in exchange for the Psion, but Saladin intervenes and offers his own. Caiatl accepts and declares Saladin part of her Cabal War Council, giving him the Bracus rank. Saladin later contacts the Guardian to notify them of his decision, and reveals that he left his axe behind as a message for Crow. Zavala also informs the Guardian that he has decommissioned the psychic analysis program, and has suggested Caiatl to continue gathering dead Lucent Hive lieutenants for incineration.

Amidst the ongoing operation, Caiatl requests the Guardian to investigate a Cabal Psion faction who is spreading Darkness-inspired propaganda. As she is unable to send her own soldiers, she relies on the Vanguard to deal with the rebel faction. The Guardian returns to Mars and clears out the Psion faction's stronghold and takes out its leader, Qabix, the Insurgent. Deciphering the propaganda broadcast, Caiatl learns that her father, Emperor Calus, has aligned himself with the Black Fleet and the Witness, and is funding the Psion faction to recruit Red Legion soldiers, promising them salvation. Over the weeks, the Guardian is asked to return to the rebel stronghold and continue disrupting the Psions' broadcasts, where they learn of their leader Yirix being responsible for the attempted assassination on Zavala's life during ''Season of the Chosen'' as revenge on the Guardians' part for thwarting the Psion Flayers' efforts with the Sundial on Mercury during ''Season of Dawn'' and the Cabal's attempt to crash the Almighty in the Last City during ''Season of the Worthy''.

''Season of the Haunted''

Following the abrupt end of the Lucent Hive psychic analysis program and Lord Saladin's integration into Empress Caiatl's War Council, the Vanguard discovers that the Leviathan, the flagship of the exiled Cabal emperor Calus, has suddenly reappeared in the Solar System in orbit above Earth's Moon and is attempting to commune with the Lunar Pyramid. In response to Emperor Calus's return and the threat from his newfound allegiance to the Black Fleet and the Witness, the Vanguard sends the H.E.L.M., fully revealed to be a mobile command ship, to the Moon's orbit, and the Guardian is then tasked by Commander Zavala and Eris Morn to investigate the Leviathan. As the Guardian explores the now derelict Leviathan, they discover that the ship has been overrun by Darkness and infested with Egregore, Darkness fungal growths that were previously seen on the ''Glykon'' during ''Season of the Chosen''. The Guardian also discovers that the ship, due to its close proximity to the Moon and its communion with the Lunar Pyramid, is also now infested with Nightmares. One particular Nightmare, taking on the form of Zavala's deceased wife Safiyah, lures the Guardian to Calus's throne room, where they are ambushed by Darkness-powered Loyalist Cabal and Nightmares. Eris tries to teleport the Guardian out to safety but to no success, and the Guardian is forced to escape the Leviathan themself and reconvene with Zavala, Eris, Empress Caiatl, and Crow in the H.E.L.M. During these events, it is revealed that Calus had gone mad after hearing the voice of the Witness, causing him to experiment with the Crown of Sorrow on the ''Glykon'' to control the powers of Darkness through Egregore.

In the H.E.L.M., Eris explains to Caiatl about the Nightmares infesting the Leviathan and that she is able to provide protection through a Hive séance ritual involving the Crown of Sorrow, now under Eris's control, and an artifact of her creation called the Nightmare Harvester, but Caiatl refuses to get involved due to Eris's usage of Hive magic. Eris then performs the séance ritual with Zavala, Crow, and the Guardian to bind them to each other and to the Crown of Sorrow, which also manifests the Nightmares of Safiyah, Uldren Sov, and even Dominus Ghaul that begin to haunt Zavala, Crow, and Caiatl. The Guardian is then given the powered Nightmare Harvester to help contain the Nightmares haunting the Leviathan and bind them to the Crown of Sorrow. After the Guardian contains several Nightmares from the Leviathan's Castellum into the Nightmare Harvester, both the Guardian and Crow head to the Leviathan's Underbelly section to perform a severance ritual in order to weaken Calus's connection with the Pyramid; Crow, however, is continuously haunted by the Nightmare of Uldren, who derides Crow for his actions in his past life. Upon arriving in the Leviathan's Gauntlet, Crow performs the severance ritual and summons the Nightmare of Fikrul, the Fanatic. The Guardian manages to destroy the Nightmare of the Fanatic but the severance ritual fails due to Crow resisting the Nightmare of Uldren. The Guardian then checks in on Crow back in the H.E.L.M., where he is recovering from the failed severance ritual. Eris then contacts the Guardian afterwards, commenting that she underestimated the situation when Crow failed to sever his Nightmare as she discovers that the Leviathan has now become an extension of the Lunar Pyramid. Eris advises the Guardian to return to the Leviathan to contain more Nightmares while she formulates a new strategy. Eventually, Crow and Guardian return to the Underbelly to attempt the severance ritual again. Instead of attempting to banish the Nightmare of Uldren, Crow slowly acknowledges and accepts responsibility for his past life. Crow attempts the severance ritual once again and is finally successful, and the Nightmare of Uldren transforms into the Memory of Uldren, successfully weakening Emperor Calus's connection with the Pyramid. Back at the H.E.L.M., Crow explains to the Guardian that acknowledging and accepting responsibility for his actions as Uldren Sov made him a stronger and better person.

Following Crow's successful severance ritual, Zavala offers to aid in the next severance ritual, but he becomes haunted and distraught by the Nightmare of Safiyah who blames him for the death of their son Hakim. Though the Guardian defeats the Nightmare of Kethiks, Grief Unforgiven in the Underbelly, the ritual fails due to Zavala's continued grief. Back at the H.E.L.M., Eris tells the Guardian of Zavala's relationship with Safiyah, whom he had met back during the Dark Age while he was still being mentored by Saladin. Zavala had fallen in love with Safiyah, and left Saladin to live with and marry her. The two found an infant boy left alive from a Fallen attack, and raised him as their own, named Hakim. Zavala considered giving up his Light, but one day they were attacked by a Fallen raiding party. Hakim raced to join Zavala in battle but was killed. Zavala tried to apologize to Safiyah but she claimed there was nothing for Zavala to apologize for. They separated, Zavala returning to join Saladin, while Safiyah married again and had her own family. Over time, Zavala has tried to apologize to the descendants of Safiyah, but had not found any form of forgiveness, leaving him still grief-stricken to the present. Eventually, Zavala finds the strength to confront his trauma, and returns to the Underbelly to attempt the severance ritual again with the Guardian by his side. Zavala performs the severance ritual again and is ultimately successful, with the Nightmare of Safiyah transforming into the Memory of Safiyah. Zavala continues to beg for forgiveness over Hakim's death, but the Memory of Safiyah reassures him that it was never his fault to begin with. The Guardian returns to the H.E.L.M., where Zavala explains that the entire ordeal had made him further question his faith in the Traveler and is contemplating on leaving the Guardian life. While Zavala's successful severance ritual further broke Calus's connection with the Pyramid, Eris informs the Guardian that one more severance ritual is needed.

Shortly after Zavala's successful severance ritual, the Guardian and Eris find out that Caiatl is attempting to banish the Nightmare of Dominus Ghaul, who berates her for her ineptitude in leading the Cabal race as empress. The Guardian then receives a message from Caiatl in the H.E.L.M., telling them to not interfere. Nevertheless, the Guardian decides to return to the Underbelly to find Caiatl, where she attempts to perform the severance ritual to banish the Nightmare of Ghaul despite not being bound to the Crown of Sorrow, but ultimately fails despite the Guardian defeating the Nightmare of Ghaul himself. Eris then summons to the Guardian to the Moon, where she discovers that Nightmares have once again populated the Scarlet Keep due to Emperor Calus's influence and advises the Guardian to investigate. The Guardian heads to the Scarlet Keep where they destroy a Nightmare that is calling out to the lunar Pyramid, where the Guardian heads to afterwards and finds dead Loyalist Cabal infected with Egregore that were ferrying Calus's mind to the Pyramid. The Guardian then reconvenes with Eris via the Crown of Sorrow in the H.E.L.M., where she explains that Calus intends take control of the Pyramid and claim its power to aid the Witness in bringing about a second Collapse. Eris later convinces Caiatl to perform the séance ritual in order to eventually sever Calus's final connection to the Pyramid. After performing the séance ritual to bind her to the Crown of Sorrow, Caiatl, with newfound confidence, asks the Guardian to join her in the Underbelly to attempt the severance ritual again, to which she is ultimately successful, with the Nightmare of Ghaul transforming into the Memory of Ghaul. Back at the H.E.L.M., Caiatl contacts the Guardian and thanks them, proving in her confidence that she is a capable leader and that the Cabal will have a brighter future under her reign as empress. Eris, however, contacts the Guardian and advises them something is amiss despite severing Calus's final connection to the Pyramid.

During these events, clan liaison Suraya Hawthorne advises a fireteam of Guardians to personally meet up with Eris in the Leviathan's Tribute Hall, despite Eris herself breaking Vanguard protocol. The Guardians travel to the Tribute Hall and speak with Eris, where she gives them the opportunity to enter the fractured mindscape of Emperor Calus and steal his darkest secrets from him ("Duality" dungeon). The Guardians enter Calus's consciousness via a Hive portal created by Eris, where they fight their way through, splitting between a material realm and a Nightmare realm both representing the exiled Cabal emperor's torment. As the Guardians go deeper into Calus's mind, they defeat the Nightmare of Gahlran, the Sorrow Bearer, and then later unlock a vault in the mindscape which uncovers Calus's past involving his daughter Caiatl, who eventually betrayed him and sent him into exile aboard the Leviathan, which led him to commune with the Darkness and seek the Witness's favor. Eventually, the Guardians arrive at a shrine of Darkness holding a giant Bell of Conquests, where they are greeted by the Nightmare of Caiatl, Princess-Imperial, representing Calus's greatest shame. After defeating the Nightmare of Caiatl, Eris transports the Guardians back to the Tribute Hall, where she states that through his memories, Emperor Calus is seeking to transfigure himself as a Disciple of the Witness and to help the Witness's endgame of heralding the "final shape" of the universe.

Eventually, the Guardian is contacted by Eris through the Crown of Sorrow at the H.E.L.M., who discovers that despite Caiatl's successful severance ritual, Emperor Calus had successfully began to integrate his consciousness into the Lunar Pyramid. With time running out before Calus fully assumes complete control of the Pyramid, the Guardian, Eris, Crow, Zavala and Caiatl return to the Leviathan to perform one more severance ritual, this time in the heart of the Pyramid where Calus's consciousness resides. The Guardian fights their way through the Leviathan once more into Calus's throne room, where they enter a portal leading to the heart of the Lunar Pyramid, where they meet up with Caiatl. Caiatl then confronts her father, whose consciousness appears before her and the Guardian and attacks them. With the help of the Memories of Uldren, Safiyah and Ghaul, the Guardian successfully defeats Calus, but he manages to escape and the Memories fade away as soon as Eris, Crow and Zavala arrive. The Guardian returns to the H.E.L.M., where Eris comments that despite Emperor Calus's defeat, he is not truly gone as he had fully become a Disciple of the Witness and the harbinger of the second Collapse. Eris warns the Guardian that they have reached the point of no return, and that it is the beginning of the end.

At the conclusion of the season, the Vanguard informs the Guardian that they have lost contact with the H.E.L.M., and sends the Guardian to investigate. The Guardian arrives in the H.E.L.M., now infested with Egregore, where they receive an ominous transmission from Emperor Calus. Calus warns the Guardian that the Witness is coming for the Traveler and cannot be stopped. The Guardian returns to Zavala in the Tower afterwards, who comments that the same message appeared throughout the Last City as well. He advises the Guardian to also prepare for the eventual arrival of the Witness.

In his backyard, a little boy dressed like an engineer, is reading a book about trains while playing with a toy train. He has a brief thought about what it would be like to operate a real train. At that moment, he hears a real freight train approaching. He opens the gate to see the train stop, and goes to board it, but fails when his St. Bernard, whose name is given as Rover, grabs him before he can get far. Still wanting to get a hands-on experience, Tim attaches Rover's collar to a nearby tree and then makes his way toward the train and climbs onboard to the boxcar at the end. Rover frantically tries to get free from the rope, fully aware of the dangers at hand. As the train starts moving, the boy ends up falling off, knocking his head against the rails and sending him into Dreamland.

Entering subconsciousness, the boy finds himself in an enormous train yard filled with steam engines with built-in yet uneasy smiley faces. Too excited to care, he looks around and boards a shiny, greenish streamliner engine. Then he hops in the seat, blows the whistle, and pulls the brake lever backward, but starts fiddling with the rest of the valves and levers. The engine starts moving, slowly at first but quickly shifting up to rapid speed. Suddenly, the gauges on the dashboard, and the engine, start stalking the boy with the ominous warning "play safe". Frightened, the boy realizes that the train is going much too fast, and reaches for the levers, but they disappear before he can grab hold of them. With no way of stopping, the boy finds himself trapped on the runaway engine as it travels around treacherous mountains and into a cavernous tunnel. Suddenly, from out of nowhere, a red streamliner, coming in the opposite direcction, appears on the same track. The two engines blow their whistles at one another, but instead of colliding, they jump off the tracks and scream face to face as the nightmare cuts away.

The boy is still not fully awake, and Rover hears another train coming down the tracks. Rover finally manages to break free from his collar, and rushes to the boy's rescue. As the train speedily approaches the boy laying on the tracks, Rover finally manages to outrun the engine. He dips his tail in some red paint and waves it like a flag, hoping to stop the oncoming train. Alas, the engineer doesn't notice, and as the engine runs into Rover, sending him speeding along the tracks toward his young master, Rover grabs the boy in his teeth and pulls him out of danger just as the train speeds right past. Once the train has gone, Rover licks the boy's face to wake him up. He happily hugs and kisses Rover.

After a meeting between the Torricelli Sicilian Mafia crime family and black market dealers, Massimo Torricelli watches a beautiful woman on a beach and talks with his father, the mafia boss. Suddenly, the dealers shoot Massimo and his father; Massimo survives while his father dies from his injuries.

Five years later, Massimo is the leader of the Torricelli crime family. In Warsaw, Laura Biel is unhappy in her relationship with her boyfriend, Martin. Laura celebrates her 29th birthday in Italy with Martin and her friend Olga, but after Martin visits Etna without her, she goes for a walk and runs into Massimo, who kidnaps her.

At his villa, Massimo reveals to Laura that she was the woman at the beach five years ago and that when he was injured, all he could think about was her. After searching for years and finally spotting her, he kidnapped her, intending to keep her as a prisoner for 365 days in the hopes that she will fall in love with him. He also promises her that he will not touch her intimately without her consent while he is physically and sexually aggressive towards her.

As they spend time together, Laura teases him and then refuses to have sex with him. At a hotel in Rome, she begins to tease him again and he cuffs her to the bed. Massimo then makes Laura watch him receive oral sex from another woman. Afterward, he claims he is going to penetrate her but changes his mind and orders her to get dressed for a club.

At the club, Laura flaunts herself to Massimo and his friends, angering him. When she begins to flirt with a man from the rival mafia family, the man gropes her. Massimo draws his weapons and Laura is taken out of the club. The following morning, she awakens on a yacht to Massimo and his fellow mafioso, Mario, arguing. Massimo confesses that he shot the man's hand who had groped Laura, inciting a war between the two families. Laura attempts to apologize, but Massimo blames her for the incident. They argue and Laura falls into the water and starts to panic. Massimo jumps in to save her. When she regains consciousness, he admits he was scared she might not make it and does not want to lose her. Laura begins to fellate Massimo and the two engage in sex repeatedly.

Later that evening, Massimo and Laura attend a masquerade ball, where a woman named Anna threatens Laura. Massimo reveals that he dated Anna, told her that he would leave if he found Laura, and did so when he recognized Laura at the airport.

After the ball, Massimo and Laura have sex again. He tells her he is sending her to visit her loved ones in Warsaw and promises to join her after finishing up business. He then tells her he loves her.

On the car ride to the airport, Domenico, another one of Massimo's mafiosos, tried to reassure a nervous Laura that Anna won't hurt her but gets a phone call, tells Laura to wait in Warsaw, and rushes away.

In Warsaw, Laura waits for Massimo for days with no contact. She reconnects with her best friend Olga and they go clubbing. She runs into Martin, who says he has been looking for her to apologize. He attempts to convince her to reconcile and follows her back to her apartment, where Massimo is unexpectedly waiting. Martin leaves and Laura and Massimo have sex. When Laura opens his shirt, she discovers his wounds from the ongoing conflict. She confesses to him that she loves him. The following morning, Massimo proposes and she accepts. However, she asks him to keep his "occupation" a secret from her parents.

Back in Italy, Mario informs Massimo of rising tensions. Laura mentions feeling unwell but brushes off seeing a doctor. They discuss their upcoming wedding that her family is not allowed to attend, as she does not want them to discover what Massimo does. However, Massimo allows Olga to come as Laura's bridesmaid. When Olga visits, Laura reveals she is pregnant. Olga urges her to tell Massimo about the pregnancy. Laura calls him and asks if they can talk after dinner. Meanwhile, Mario receives a phone call from a Torricelli informant that the rival mafia family is about to kill Laura. Laura's car enters a tunnel but does not come out the other side. Mario rushes to find Massimo just as Laura's call drops. Realizing the implications, Massimo breaks down. A police car blocks the entrance of the tunnel.

After spontaneously joining an impromptu baseball game with a group of other students, they return to the dorms to drink and have sex.

The next morning, however, Maggie is aloof and irritated by Alex's presence, which leaves him hurt and confused. He tries to reconnect with her in overbearing ways, such as sending her long messages on Instagram and liking all of her photos. In turn, Maggie ignores him when encountering him in front of her friends. Alex decides to make a sincere effort in bonding with Sam, and they crash another party that night, one which Maggie is also attending. Maggie treats Alex in a friendly way again, which he misinterprets as an invitation to reconnect, but when he later finds her hooking up with another student, they devolve into fighting; Alex accuses Maggie of toying with his feelings and pretending that they did not share a connection, while Maggie blames him for being clingy and placing too much weight on their encounter. They walk away believing the other is immature: Maggie thinks Alex is naïve and entitled, while Alex believes Maggie uses sex as a crutch to cover up for her unhappy childhood and fear of real intimacy.

Alex takes the time to open himself up to socializing, taking care of Sam, connecting with strangers, and hanging out with the students he met at the baseball game. Later, he calls his mother and tearfully reveals that he has been lying to her, and says that while he does love her and his sister back home, he needs to try harder to put an effort into enjoying his college years instead of leaning on them. His mother agrees, but assures him that his family will always be there when he needs them. That night, he encounters Maggie throwing her old terrarium away, and he assists her before they part ways. Maggie, having thought hard about Alex's earlier words, returns to her dorm and likes some of Alex's Instagram photos.

Two and a half years later, Alex has many friends, including Sam and Maggie, and is fully involved in college life. Maggie, now taking a chance by appearing in plays, meets up with Alex after a performance and asks to be his girlfriend. Alex agrees on the condition that they both be good partners to each other. She accepts, and they go outside for an impromptu game of baseball.

Series synopsis courtesy of BOOM! Studios:

"''When the children of Archer's Peak begin to go missing, everything seems hopeless. Most children never return, but the ones that do have terrible stories—impossible stories of terrifying creatures that live in the shadows. Their only hope of finding and eliminating the threat is the arrival of a mysterious stranger, one who believes the children and claims to see what they can see. Her name is Erica Slaughter. She kills monsters. That is all she does, and she bears the cost because it MUST be done.''"

According to articles and reviews in 1912 trade publications, the film began with scenes set in the contemporary South, over 50 years after the start of the American Civil War.Phillips, Henry Albert (1912).

Helen Randall, an elderly well-to-do Southern spinster, is described sitting at her home and conversing with her niece Edith, a young woman who is engaged and soon to be married. Curious about her aunt's past, Edith asks her why she never married. Helen is visibly disheartened by the question but shows her niece a photograph of a young soldier, a keepsake she displays on the fireplace mantle in her living room. The scene then transitioned back in time to just before the war, when Helen is a teenager and is attending a women's seminary located near West Point, New York. While a student there she meets and falls in love with Charles Dalton, a cadet at the United States Military Academy. The couple's plans to marry are soon interrupted by the outbreak of war between the North and South. Helen, obeying her father, returns home while Charles remains in New York, where he is commissioned as a captain of a cavalry unit in the Union army. Meanwhile, Helen's father joins the opposing Confederate States Army to serve as a colonel.

As the war intensifies and drags on, Helen loses touch with Charles. Her father, who is now away from their home serving at the front, is ordered by General Robert E. Lee to deliver an urgent, secret message to General "Stonewall" Jackson, information that may prevent the fall of Richmond, Virginia, the Confederacy's capital, to Union forces. While skirting "Yankee" lines, Colonel Randall is seen by Union soldiers, who chase him. The desperate colonel's home happens to be nearby, so Randall rushes there with the enemy in hot pursuit. Helen and her older brother Harry are at the stately residence and are startled when their father appears. Frantic to protect him, she, unlike her cowardly brother, helps to defend him and to safeguard the message he is carrying when a unit of Union cavalry arrives. Helen during the "bloody fight" that ensues is shocked to see that her beloved Charles is leading the unit.[http://archive.org/stream/movingpicturewor11newy#page/184/mode/2up "Edison Films"], advertisement for four releases, ''The Moving Picture World'', January 20, 1912, p. 182.

Loyalty prevails, and she shoots and kills Charles. She then faints amid the chaos, but upon awakening she finds that Confederate soldiers had arrived to chase off the remaining Yankee troopers. Although she is hailed as a Southern heroine, Helen grieves and remains devastated by the death of the man she once planned to wed, a casualty of war that she inflicted. She therefore dedicates her own remaining years to living a chaste, unmarried life.

Tom is seen sitting on train tracks, heavily depressed and waiting for an oncoming train to come and run him over, while Jerry laments at his friend's state and recalls how he ended up there. Jerry narrates that he and Tom were best friends before Tom falls for a beautiful white cat who, at first, seems to return his feelings (though she is actually manipulating him to her whims) before leaving him for Butch (who, unlike in other cartoons, is extremely rich), revealing she is actually a gold digger, confirming Jerry's earlier suspicions. Despite Jerry's protests, Tom desperately tries to buy back her love, but is continually outdone by Butch. When he tries to present her with a flower, he finds she has had already received a beautiful horseshoe garland of roses from Butch. He squanders all of his life savings to buy a diamond ring for her (with a diamond so small she needs a magnifying glass to see it) only to learn that Butch has had already gifted her a ring with a large diamond so shiny that she and Tom don welding helmets just to see it. He even sells himself into slavery just to buy her an old, rickety automobile cabriolet or vintage cart stops and beeps, only for Butch to arrive in his long train-like limousine, crushing Tom and his car. Tom starts drinking (milk) uncontrollably, ignoring Jerry's pleas, and eventually nearly goes down the literal gutter, but is saved just in time by Jerry. Tom becomes even more depressed when Butch and the white cat drive by in the limousine with a "JUST MARRIED" sign on the back. As the flashback ends, Jerry kisses a picture of his girlfriend before she drives past, having married to a rich mouse. Heartbroken, Jerry meets Tom and joins him on the tracks. The whistle of an approaching train grows louder as the cartoon fades out. On Final Screen Appeared Inscription the end

A pourquoi story, ''Orca's Song'' explains the origins of the black and white patterning of the orca. In the story, Orca is an all-black whale who begins to pine for Osprey and begins to help her catch salmon. Osprey in turn explains the experience of flight to Orca and begins to bring her gifts from land. The two fall in love but struggle to reconcile their disparate origins. One day, Orca leaps from the sea and Osprey swoops towards the waves and their bodies come into contact.

They birth a baby orca with black and white coloration who can leap higher from the water than its whale mother but cannot fly. Twice annually, in the spring and fall, women on Vancouver Island play music on the western coast and orcas go there and sway to their tunes and sing their own songs. Ospreys attend this gathering and sing along uniting the sky, land, and earth. The story ends by noting that luck is bestowed upon anyone whom a whale splashes.

Seventeen-year-old Evan Hansen suffers from social anxiety. His therapist recommends that he write letters to himself detailing why "today will be good". Evan's mother, Heidi, suggests that he ask people to sign his cast, after Evan had fallen out of a tree and broken his arm, to try and make friends. At school, Evan writes his letter to himself, wondering whether anyone would notice if he disappeared ("Waving Through a Window").

Evan's classmate, Connor Murphy, offers to sign his cast, taking up a lot of space. He finds Evan's letter and becomes furious at the mention of his sister, Zoe, who is also Evan's crush. Believing that Evan wrote the letter to provoke him, he storms out with the letter in hand. Three days later, Evan is called to the principal's office and is told by Connor's parents that Connor died by suicide. Despite Evan's attempts to tell the truth, the two misinterpret the letter Connor stole as a suicide note addressed to Evan, with Connor's name on his cast solidifying their belief.

Evan is invited to the Murphys' house. Under pressure from Cynthia, he invents a friendship between the two, manufacturing a story about breaking his arm while with Connor at an orchard the Murphys visited ("For Forever"). Evan enlists his family friend, Jared, in fabricating backdated emails between him and Connor to confirm his story ("Sincerely, Me"). Zoe wonders why Connor included her name in his suicide note due to past experiences ("Requiem"). Evan, still unable to tell the truth, tells her all the reasons he loves her under the guise of Connor ("If I Could Tell Her").

Alana Beck, a classmate with mental health issues similar to Evan's, proposes "The Connor Project," a student group dedicated to keeping Connor's memory alive, with an upcoming assembly as the kickoff ("The Anonymous Ones"). At the assembly, Evan gives a speech about his loneliness and friendship with Connor, retelling the orchard story. A video of the speech goes viral, with Evan's words being used as hope to people dealing with mental illness ("You Will Be Found"). Zoe is overcome by the positive reception and thanks Evan for helping her family.

Evan and Alana launch a crowdfunding campaign through The Connor Project to reopen the orchard. Evan begins to neglect his mother, The Connor Project, and his therapy in favor of spending time with the Murphys. When Zoe comes over to Evan's house one night, she confesses her feelings for him and the two strike a romance ("Only Us"). Meanwhile, Heidi shows up at the Murphys' for dinner, during which Cynthia and Larry offer to give Connor's college fund to Evan. Heidi declines, refusing charity from the wealthy Murphys.

When Alana begins to doubt Evan's friendship with Connor, Evan emails her his therapy letter, saying it was Connor's suicide note. Alana posts the letter on her social media in order to get The Connor Project to its funding goal ("The Anonymous Ones (Reprise)"). Online commenters question why Connor wrote a suicide note to Evan but not his family, accusing the Murphys of mistreating him. Due to backlash, Alana deletes the letter from social media, but she is too late, as the letter had already been shared across the internet. During an argument between Cynthia and Larry, Evan comes clean. Devastated, the Murphys decide to keep the truth hidden out of respect for Connor's memory, and Zoe and Evan break up ("Words Fail"). Evan admits to his mother that his fall from the tree was a suicide attempt. Heidi apologizes for not seeing how deeply Evan was hurting and discussing how his absent father scarred him ("So Big/So Small"). Wanting to take responsibility, Evan uploads a video confessing the truth.

Alone again, he reads a list of Connor's favorite books and gets in touch with those who truly knew him. He receives a video of Connor performing music while in rehab, passing it along to the Murphys, Alana, and Jared ("A Little Closer"). Evan meets with Zoe at the reopened orchard dedicated to Connor's memory. They reconcile, with Zoe telling Evan she wanted him to see the orchard, the one place Connor loved. Evan writes himself a letter, vowing not to hide or lie and encouraging himself to move forward in life ("A Little Closer (Reprise)").

After more than a year of training under Peter Parker, Miles Morales has mastered his spider-like abilities and established himself as the original Spider-Man's crime fighting partner, though he still struggles to adapt into his new role. While escorting a police convoy carrying prisoners to the rebuilt Raft, Miles accidentally frees Rhino, who wreaks havoc across the city. While Miles stops the other escapees, Peter struggles against Rhino, who eventually overpowers him. Miles intervenes and defeats Rhino with his new bio-electric ability, later dubbed the "Venom Blast". Leaving Rhino in Roxxon's custody, Peter informs Miles that he will be assisting his girlfriend, ''Daily Bugle'' reporter Mary Jane Watson, with her assignment in Symkaria for a few weeks as her photographer, and entrusts him to look after the city in his absence.

While investigating a break-in at the Roxxon Plaza, Miles clashes with a group called the Underground, who have a vendetta against the company. Returning home to celebrate Christmas with his mother Rio and friend Ganke Lee, Miles is surprised to learn that Rio also invited Phin Mason, with whom he has not spoken in over a year. The next day, Ganke creates a Spider-Man app so citizens can call Miles for help directly. Miles's uncle, Aaron Davis, is the first to use it and reveals his knowledge of his nephew's identity. Later, Miles attends one of Rio's campaign rallies, but witnesses the Underground attacking the Roxxon guards present and tries to stop the conflict before it escalates. He soon discovers that the Underground are seeking Roxxon's experimental power source, Nuform, and that Phin is their leader, the "Tinkerer". After further investigation, Miles learns that Phin wants to avenge the death of her brother Rick Mason, who was poisoned while working on Nuform and killed by Simon Krieger after attempting to sabotage the project. With assistance from Aaron, whom he learns is the mercenary known as the Prowler, Miles discovers Phin's plan to ruin Roxxon by destroying their plaza with Nuform to highlight its dangerous side-effects, which Krieger had been covering up.

After betraying Phin's trust to gather information on the Underground, Miles is eventually forced to reveal his identity to her, souring their friendship. Miles tries to reconcile with Phin, but Roxxon abducts them with the aid of an enhanced Rhino. Miles and Phin escape, but Miles learns that Aaron has been spying on him for Roxxon and that Krieger modified the plaza's Nuform reactor to destroy Harlem if Phin's plan succeeds. Phin and Miles fight the enhanced Rhino, who taunts Phin about Rick's death. She almost kills him, but Miles intervenes and the two fight before Phin knocks Miles out and escapes. Ganke brings an injured Miles home, where Rio discovers her son's identity and continues to support him. Once he recovers, Miles tries to stop Phin. However, he is captured by Aaron, who takes him underground to prevent him from being killed like his father Jefferson Davis. Miles escapes and defeats his uncle, explaining that he cannot turn his back on people when they need him.

While the Underground and Roxxon fight on the streets and Phin executes her plan, Aaron, inspired by his nephew's words, helps Rio evacuate Harlem, giving Miles a chance to confront Phin and stop the Nuform reactor before it goes critical. Unable to reason with her, Miles fights Phin before attempting to absorb the Nuform's energy to negate the blast. However, there is too much energy and Miles is unable to contain it. To save the city, Phin sacrifices herself by flying him to a safe distance above the city so that he can release the energy before it kills him. Miles plummets to the ground and his identity is revealed to a small number of citizens he helped as Spider-Man, who promise to keep his secret. Four weeks later, Roxxon has been dealt numerous lawsuits and Krieger has been arrested following Aaron turning himself in and testifying against them. Peter returns from Symkaria and praises Miles for his growth and heroism before they head off to fight crime together.

In a mid-credits scene, Norman Osborn orders a reluctant Dr. Curt Connors to release his terminally ill son Harry from stasis in spite of his unstable condition. In a post-credits scene, Miles leaves an award he won with Phin atop Trinity Church in her memory.

In light of their previous heroics, Ratchet (James Arnold Taylor) and Clank (David Kaye) are celebrated as galactic heroes. During a parade in their honor, Clank reveals that he has repaired the Dimensionator, a device capable of opening rifts to other dimensions, so that Ratchet can search for the Lombax race and his missing family. However, Doctor Nefarious (Armin Shimerman) suddenly attacks the parade and attempts to steal the Dimensionator, but during the struggle however, Ratchet unthinkingly shoots the Dimensionator, which causes dimensional rifts to begin opening randomly. Ratchet, Clank, and Dr. Nefarious end up being transported to an alternate universe, the Dimensionator then explodes, which damages the fabric of space and time and separates the three. Clank awakens to find himself alone and now missing his right arm from the blast. Clank is then discovered and picked up by a female Lombax named Rivet (Jennifer Hale). Meanwhile, Dr. Nefarious ends up in a throne room, where he is mistaken for Emperor Nefarious (Robin Atkin Downes), an alternate version of Nefarious who, unlike him, has never been defeated in this dimension. Ratchet meanwhile, finds himself alone and starts his search for Clank. With the emperor currently absent on a conquest, Dr. Nefarious secretly assumes his identity and sends his new minions after Ratchet and Rivet.

While searching, Ratchet witnesses Rivet escaping the planet with Clank. Ratchet encounters Phantom (the alternate Skidd), a member of the Resistance opposed to Emperor Nefarious, who gifts him an electronic helper named Glitch to help him get a ship to follow Rivet. Rivet takes Clank to her hideout, where Clank investigates a dimensional anomaly and makes contact with a prophet named Gary, who enlists his help in repairing dimensional anomalies to prevent the Dimensional Cataclysm. Rivet repairs Clank's communicator and he and Rivet are able to contact Ratchet, and come up with a plan to rebuild the Dimensionator so they can return to their own home dimension and stop the Dimensional Cataclysm.

Ratchet heads out to find the blueprint for the Dimensionator, and recruits one of Gary's robot apprentices, Kit (Debra Wilson), to be his partner. Kit warns Ratchet that she is a Warbot built by Emperor Nefarious and she might lose control of her programming and attack him, but Ratchet reassures her that they make a good team. They then head to a secret lab to forge a new Dimensionator. Rivet and Clank head out to gather the Phase Quartz needed to power the Dimensionator, but it is accidentally destroyed. With no other choice, Rivet and Clank search for the mythical Fixer who can repair anything and convince him to overcome his own self doubt to repair the Phase Quartz. Ratchet and Rivet then finally meet, with Clank reuniting with Ratchet and Kit agreeing to become Rivet's partner. They then complete the Dimensionator, only for Dr. Nefarious to arrive to try to steal it. Dr. Nefarious is defeated, but Emperor Nefarious arrives, easily defeating Ratchet and Rivet and stealing the Dimensionator for himself, which he plans to use to eliminate Captain Quantum (the alternate Captain Qwark) and destroy the Resistance once and for all.

Rivet pursues Emperor Nefarious, but he uses the Dimensionator to banish her to a pocket dimension. As Rivet searches for a rift to escape through, she tells Kit about how she lost her arm to a Warbot attack, and Kit realizes she is responsible. Ratchet heads out to try and warn Captain Quantum, but fails to stop Emperor Nefarious from banishing Captain Quantum through a rift. Emperor Nefarious celebrates finally conquering the universe, but doesn't feel fulfilled until he realizes he can use the Dimensionator to conquer every dimension. Spying on Emperor Nefarious, Ratchet and Rivet realize Emperor Nefarious will need the Dimensional Map and head out to intercept him. Rivet and Kit board Emperor Nefarious' flagship and rescue Gary, who reveals he hid the Dimensional Map inside a dimensional anomaly. Ratchet and Clank recover the Dimensional Map but are ambushed by Emperor Nefarious and banished through a rift. Kit transforms into her Warbot form to try and stop Emperor Nefarious, shocking Rivet, but Kit ends up being banished through a rift as well.

Left alone, Rivet heads for the prison facility Emperor Nefarious has banished all of his enemies to and stages a prison break, freeing Ratchet and Clank as well as the rest of the Resistance. However, still feeling guilty over causing the loss of Rivet's arm, Kit decides to leave the group. As the Resistance regroups, Emperor Nefarious announces that he plans to start invading other dimensions, starting with Ratchet and Clank's home dimension. Ratchet, Clank, Rivet, and the Resistance pursue Emperor Nefarious through the rift. Ratchet and Clank destroy Emperor Nefarious' giant power suit, and Kit returns to hold his forces at bay while Rivet confronts Emperor Nefarious personally. Working together, everybody, including Dr. Nefarious, manage to defeat and banish Emperor Nefarious through a rift. Clank recovers the Dimensionator and uses it to repair the dimensions, averting the Dimensional Cataclysm.

With both dimensions and all of reality saved and the Dimensionator in their possession, Ratchet, Clank, Rivet, and Kit take the opportunity to hang out together, repair the damage Emperor Nefarious caused, build a new arm for Clank, and go on additional adventures.

In the credits, citizens of Nefarious City begin dismantling the regime's legacy, Dr. Nefarious reunited with Lawrence, who is now a father, and Gary shares his findings with his father, The Plumber.

In the six months following the defeat of HADES (Anthony Ingruber), Aloy has been searching fruitlessly for a working backup of GAIA (Lesley Ewen) to restore the planet's rapidly degrading biosphere. Sylens (Lance Reddick), having stolen HADES, contacts Aloy and asks her to continue her search in the Forbidden West region.

Aloy and her friend Varl (John Macmillan) cross into the west to find the ruling Tenakth tribe in the midst of a civil war between Chief Hekarro (Geno Segers) and the rebel leader Regalla (Angela Bassett). Aloy tracks Sylens to a facility where she finds HADES badly damaged, and permanently deletes it. She recovers a GAIA backup without its subsystems, but is interrupted by a group of futuristic humans. The group, consisting of their leader Gerard (Dan Donohue), his lieutenant Tilda (Carrie-Anne Moss), enforcer Erik (Marc Kudisch) and accompanied by a clone of Sobeck named Beta (also voiced by Burch), possess advanced technology that renders them invulnerable. They take a second GAIA backup while Aloy barely escapes.

Zo (Erica Luttrell), a member of the nearby Utaru tribe, guides Aloy to a control center where she rejoins GAIA with her subsystem MINERVA (Morla Gorrondona). GAIA locates the other subsystems AETHER (Wil Coban), DEMETER (Sophie Simnett), and POSEIDON (also Donohue), and advises Aloy to retrieve them before attempting to capture the more advanced HEPHAESTUS (Stefan Ashton Frank). GAIA also reveals the extinction signal that triggered HADES originated from the Sirius system; Aloy suspects that it was sent by the futuristic humans. She later tracks down Beta, who informs Aloy that her group are in fact Far Zenith, colonists who fled Earth during its global extinction, having managed to extend their natural lifespans. After their colony on Sirius collapsed, the Zeniths returned to Earth to use GAIA through Beta's genetic make-up for their own recolonization. They have since acquired subsystems ELEUTHIA, ARTEMIS, and APOLLO, but Beta has stolen their GAIA backup.

Aloy recovers AETHER after helping Hekarro advance in the war and retrieves POSEIDON from the ruins of Las Vegas. Journeying to California, she encounters the Quen, a foreign tribe who are attempting to solve ecological crises in their homeland. Aloy helps tribe member Alva (Alison Jaye) with acquiring data, while recovering DEMETER. After obtaining a high level clearance from the tomb of a mutated Ted Faro (Lloyd Owen), Aloy uses GAIA to trap HEPHAESTUS, but is attacked by the Zeniths. Erik kills Varl and recaptures Beta while Gerard steals GAIA, but Tilda double crosses them and helps Aloy escape. Tilda explains that she was romantically involved with Elisabet and regretted leaving her; having been inspired by Aloy, she wishes to stop Far Zenith. She further reveals that Sylens has been supporting the Tenakth rebels to use them against the Zeniths. Aloy refuses to sacrifice the Tenakth and instead defeats Regalla herself after thwarting the latter's final attack on Hekarro.

Aloy and her companions assault Far Zenith's base, while Beta releases HEPHAESTUS into the Zeniths' network and ties down Far Zenith's army. Sylens disables the Zeniths' personal defences, allowing Aloy and Zo to kill Erik, while Tilda kills Gerard. Aloy and Beta learn that the Far Zenith colony was in fact destroyed by Nemesis, a failed mind-uploading experiment they created; the Zeniths fled from Nemesis and hoped to steal GAIA to colonize a new planet. Nemesis also sent the extinction signal to Earth, and is en route to destroy the planet. Tilda tries to force Aloy to abandon Earth with her, but Aloy refuses and is forced to kill Tilda. Sylens reveals that HADES told him about Nemesis, and also plans to escape Earth, but has a change of heart and decides to aid Aloy against Nemesis. Aloy's companions disperse to spread the warning of Nemesis, while Aloy and Beta reactivate GAIA.

Three years after ''Resident Evil 7'', Ethan and Mia have been relocated to Europe by Chris Redfield to start a new life with their newborn daughter Rosemary. One night, Chris and his Hound Wolf squad raid the house, assassinate Mia, and abduct Ethan and Rosemary. Ethan awakens next to the crashed transport truck in which he was riding and discovers a nearby village terrorized by werewolf-like creatures known as Lycans. Ethan is unable to save the remaining villagers and is captured and brought before the village priest Mother Miranda and her lords: Alcina Dimitrescu, Donna Beneviento, Salvatore Moreau, and Karl Heisenberg. Ethan escapes a death trap made by Heisenberg and ventures into Dimitrescu's castle to find Rosemary, with the support of a mysterious local merchant known as the Duke. Ethan eliminates Dimitrescu and her daughters, finding a flask containing Rosemary's head. The Duke explains that Miranda placed Rosemary's body parts in four different flasks for a special rite and that she can be restored if Ethan recovers the other flasks held by the remaining lords.

While killing Beneviento and Moreau for their flasks, Ethan learns Hound Wolf is also in the village. Ethan passes a test from Heisenberg for the fourth flask and is invited to the lord's factory where Heisenberg offers a proposal to defeat Miranda together. Ethan refuses once he learns Heisenberg intends to weaponize Rosemary and escapes. Ethan encounters and confronts Chris over Mia's death, learning the "Mia" Chris killed was Miranda in disguise. Chris reveals that Miranda possesses the power of mimicry and was attempting to abduct Rosemary, succeeding when she crashed the transport truck. Chris destroys Heisenberg's factory while Ethan uses a makeshift tank to defeat Heisenberg. Miranda confronts Ethan and kills him after she reveals her plans to take Rosemary as her own.

Witnessing Ethan's death, Chris leads Hound Wolf to extract Rosemary while a Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance (BSAA) assault force distracts Miranda. Chris enters a cave beneath the village and discovers a Megamycete (called the and the in the Japanese game), the source of the mold. He plants a bomb on the Megamycete and finds Miranda's lab, learning that she has lived a century since coming into contact with the Megamycete and was a mentor to the Umbrella Corporation's founder Oswell E. Spencer; Oswell used her knowledge to eventually develop the t-Virus. Miranda experimented with the fungus in an attempt to revive her daughter, Eva, who had succumbed to the Spanish flu; the four lords, Lycans, and Eveline were failed experiments. Miranda found a suitable host with Rosemary due to her special abilities inherited from Ethan and Mia. Chris also rescues the imprisoned Mia, learning that Ethan is still alive when Mia reveals her husband's powers.

Ethan revives after encountering Eveline in limbo who reveals that he was killed in his first encounter with Jack Baker in Dulvey, but was revived by her mold which gave him regenerative powers. The Duke brings Ethan to the ritual site where Miranda is attempting to revive Eva, but only succeeds in reviving Rosemary. An enraged Miranda battles Ethan, who kills her, before the Megamycete emerges from the ground. Ethan, his body deteriorating from his regenerative powers having reached their limit, sacrifices himself to detonate the bomb planted on the Megamycete, while Chris transports Mia and Rosemary to safety. As Mia mourns the loss of Ethan, Chris discovers that the BSAA soldiers sent to the village were organic bioweapons and orders his squad to head for the BSAA's European headquarters.

In a post-credits scene, a teenage Rosemary visits Ethan's grave before being called away for a mission on behalf of an undisclosed organization. As she and her escort drive off into the distance, an unknown figure is seen approaching their vehicle.

During the events of ''Hitman 2'', professional assassin Agent 47 and his handler, Diana Burnwood, defected from the International Contract Agency (ICA) and joined forces with rogue mercenary Lucas Grey to destroy Providence: an alliance of corporate executives and industrialists collectively wielding political, military, and economic influence. While 47 and Grey seek revenge on Providence for turning them both into assassins, Diana is motivated by the death of her parents, unaware that 47 carried out the killings. The trio kidnapped Arthur Edwards, Providence's intermediary known as the Constant, who identified the three Partners controlling Providence: Carl Ingram, Marcus Stuyvesant, and Alexa Carlisle. Edwards, however, later escaped captivity and seized the Partners' corporate assets for himself.

Working together, 47 and Grey eliminate Ingram and Stuyvesant in Dubai during the inauguration of the Scepter, the world's tallest skyscraper, and Carlisle at her ancestral manor in Dartmoor, England. Following the Partners' deaths, Edwards assumes control of Providence and deploys mercenaries who capture Grey and Diana. Grey commits suicide to ensure 47 is not captured.

47 arranges to meet hacker Olivia Hall, Grey's only other trusted ally, in Berlin. Discovering that the ICA is tailing them, 47 kills several ICA agents sent to eliminate him, before he and Hall decide to conclusively stop the ICA by exposing its crimes to the public. 47 eliminates Hush and Imogen Royce, the overseers of the ICA data storage facility in Chongqing, China, allowing Hall to steal and publish all of the ICA's operational data while deleting all records of himself and Diana. The ICA is irrevocably compromised and dismantled, ending 47's career as a professional assassin.

Meanwhile, Edwards attempts to convert Diana to succeeding him as Constant and seeks her betrayal of 47 by finally revealing his killing of her parents. Diana seemingly double-deals both sides, accepting Edwards's offer while inviting 47 to a gathering of Providence members in Mendoza, Argentina, where he is instructed to eliminate the only people opposed to Diana's succession—Tamara Vidal and Don Archibald Yates—so that she can dismantle the organization upon assuming control. While he follows her instructions, 47's longtime trust in Diana is finally shaken when she incapacitates him with poison in revenge for the murder of her parents.

In a dream, a vision of Grey persuades 47 that Diana has not betrayed him, but rather helped to put Edwards within his reach. 47 wakes up imprisoned on a train travelling through the Carpathian Mountains, with Edwards also on board. Though Edwards intends to make 47 into an assassin for Providence once more by wiping his memory with a serum injection, 47 breaks free, either kills Edwards or injects him with the serum, and flees into the wild. Meanwhile, Diana assumes power as Constant and enacts a purge of Providence's members from leadership positions at major global corporations, dismantling Providence's power structure. A year later, 47 reunites with Diana, and the pair return to their former roles as assassin and handler, respectively, as a means of keeping the global elites in check.

In an alternate ending, if 47 injects himself with the serum while confronting Edwards, he passes out, and later awakens in a padded room, greeted by Edwards's voice telling him, "Wake up. Wake up, my friend. It's the dawn of a new day, and you have things to do"—akin to the opening of ''Hitman: Codename 47''.

Setting and characters

''Bugsnax'' takes place in a world populated by furry muppet-like humanoids called Grumpuses. The game is set on Snaktooth Island, a mysterious island inhabited solely by creatures called Bugsnax who are "half bug and half snack." The ruins of an ancient Grumpus civilization can be found around the island, along with their skeletal remains. Upon discovering the existence of Bugsnax, disgraced explorer Elizabert "Lizbert" Megafig leads an expedition team to the island to study them, establishing the makeshift town of Snaxburg as a base of operations, but disappears under mysterious circumstances. As part of the "Isle of Bigsnax" update, the small neighboring island of Broken Tooth becomes accessible later in the game.

The player controls a nameless newspaper journalist who is invited by Lizbert to visit Snaktooth Island over the objections of their supervisor, C. Clumby Clumbernut. Aiding the journalist is Filbo Fiddlepie, the self-appointed Mayor of Snaxburg who was left in charge by Lizbert before she disappeared, despite lacking self-confidence. Over the course of the game, the journalist meets several other Grumpuses who joined Lizbert on her expedition. These include Wambus Troubleham, a stubborn sauce-farmer; Beffica Winklesnoot, a gossip-seeking photographer; Gramble Gigglefunny, a rancher who treats Bugsnax as pets instead of food; Wiggle Wigglebottom, a washed-up musician; Triffany Lottablog, Wambus's estranged archaeologist wife investigating her grandmother's disappearance; Cromdo Face, a greedy entrepreneur and con-man; Snorpington "Snorpy" Fizzlebean, an inventor and conspiracy theorist obsessed with the "Grumpinati"; Chandlo Funkbun, Snorpy's overprotective bodybuilder boyfriend; Floofty Fizzlebean, Snorpy's antisocial scientist sibling; Shellsy "Shelda" Woolbag, an alleged prophet who preaches the evils of Bugsnax; and Eggabell Batternugget, the town doctor and Lizbert's romantic partner who also went missing.

Story

A struggling newspaper journalist receives a film strip in the mail from Lizbert, who encourages the journalist to come to Snaktooth Island and document the Bugsnax living there for the world to see. Intrigued, the journalist takes an airship to the island, only to discover that Lizbert has gone missing and all the other Grumpuses that joined her on her expedition have scattered due to interpersonal conflict. Filbo requests that the journalist help him bring the others back to Snaxburg, as they may have clues rergarding Lizbert's disappearance.

The journalist gradually convinces each Grumpus to return to Snaxburg. However, the Grumpuses regularly argue with each other, and each of them suffer from their own personal issues that they believe can be solved by eating Bugsnax. Some of them believe that there is a secret conspiracy behind the island: Snorpy thinks that the "Grumpinati" are controlling the Bugsnax, while Shelda warns of their harmful "toxins". One night, Snaxburg is attacked, and signs appear warning its residents to leave the island. Wiggle claims that the "Queen of Bugsnax" is planning to eat the Grumpuses. In the "Isle of Bigsnax" expansion, the journalist can discover a secret room with audio recordings from researcher Alegander Jamfoot. These recordings reveal that the supposed "Grumpinati" are actually the Snakolytes, a secret order Jamfoot is a member of whose goal is to create a new Bugsnak Queen and gain control of all Bugsnax, and that they were responsible for the disappearance of Triffany's grandmother.

After the journalist brings all residents back to Snaxburg, a volcano erupts, triggering an earthquake that destroys the town. Eggabell arrives and leads the journalist and Filbo to a hidden chamber beneath the island, which is itself revealed to be made of Bugsnax. There, they discover that Lizbert has been mutated into a giant creature made up of various Bugsnax. Lizbert explains that Bugsnax are actually mind-altering parasites that eventually transform anyone who regularly consumes them into more Bugsnax, as they had done to the island's previous inhabitants, and she has been attempting to keep the Bugsnax under control as their queen. With her control waning, Lizbert urges the group to flee the island, and Eggabell becomes part of the "queen" as well to support her efforts. Filbo and the journalist return to Snaxburg, which is now under attack from various Bugsnax. If the player fails to defend the Grumpuses during the sequence, they can die from eating the Bugsnax attacking them, becoming Bugsnax themselves. However, any Grumpus whose side quests have all been completed will fight back against the Bugsnax and automatically survive the encounter. After fending off the Bugsnax, the journalist, Filbo, and any survivors escape on the journalist's airship.

Upon returning to the mainland, Filbo acts as a witness for the journalist's story, in which they intentionally omit any mention of Bugsnax. Clumby is impressed with the story, but fires the journalist anyway. Filbo then decides to run for Mayor of New Grump City, asking for the journalist's help. Saving every Grumpus during the finale unlocks an alternate credits sequence revealing each Grumpus's current whereabouts, including that Filbo has been elected Mayor and Lizbert and Eggabell have been de-transformed, and a post-credits scene. In it, Clumby can be heard talking to Jamfoot, believing that the journalist is hiding the truth and deciding to keep watch on them, revealing herself to be a Snakolyte. Meanwhile, a single Strabby emerges from inside the airship. If the player also listened to all of Jamfoot's audio recordings, an alternate scene plays in which Jamfoot calls Clumby, fearful that the journalist knows all the Snakolytes' secrets, and orders her to find out all she can about the survivors of Snaktooth.

Nagi Umino is a 17-year old second-year high school student who learns that he is not the biological child of the family that raised him. On the way to his first meeting with his biological family he meets Erika Amano, a popular internet celebrity who is trying to escape from an arranged marriage. Later, Nagi and Erika discover that their parents had accidentally switched the two after their births and were now aiming to put them in an arranged marriage. To facilitate this, they are made to live in a house owned by Erika's family.

A French Muslim woman (Hafsia Herzi) travels to New York City from the rough neighborhoods outside of Paris to visit her childhood best friend Zahra (Sarah Kazemy). Hafsia finds that Zahra was not the girl she knew growing up in Paris. She now goes by Sarah and has completely assimilated into Western culture. Sarah explains to her much older boyfriend (Gabe Fazio) that Hafsia stinks and she doesn't want her to stay there anymore, which Hafsia overhears. Hafsia steals Sarah's credit card and identity, then disappears to a remote cabin upstate. Deep in the woods and alone for the first time in her life, she experiences a divine revelation. Sarah arrives and tries to convince Hafsia to return with her, which she refuses.

An animal breaks into Hafsia's cabin and steals all the food. Initially a couple, teacher Rose (Lucy Walters) and policeman Darren (Kevin Kane), help her. But Hafsia begins to see intolerance and suspicion which reflects back to an Islamophobic America. This third act explores themes such as the inherent racism and naivety that comes along with being a white American, that most white Americans don't even know they have or the rampant Islamophobia that has overtaken most of the world, and the difficulties of being a Muslim, particularly a Muslim woman, in a post-911 world.

Frank, an insurance lawyer, finds disqualifying information in the $4M insurance policy of a fireman who died from a heart attack. His co-worker Jeff invites him to celebrate the night before his presentation to the company board, which he eventually accepts after a tense evening with his wife.

The two men visit club El Madrid where Frank briefly meets a homeless man bathing in the bathroom sink. Frank and Jeff share drinks with two women, Natalie and Theresa, and the four of them go to a house party where Frank and Theresa are offered a hallucinogen by a man named Aeolus.

Theresa administers the drug to Frank with a kiss, causing him to instantly black out and wake up alone the next morning. As Frank attempts to make sense of his situation and find his wallet, a family enters the house and calls the police on him, who runs out the back door. Frank makes it back to his house without any money by convincing a passing cab driver to take him home for a much larger fare. At home, he argues with his wife Cheryl about the smell of perfume on his shirt as he hastily dresses for work.

Upon slamming a bedroom door to protect himself from an alarm clock thrown by Cheryl, Frank discovers he's been transported to his office, where he is greeted by Jeff and escorted to the board meeting. Frank presents the insurance claim information to a happy board, but is immediately met with disturbing visions of the board reacting demonically to the $4M policy denial. He goes to the bathroom to throw up, and agrees with Jeff that he is likely still high.

Cheryl calls him and chews him out because all of their accounts have been emptied. Frank's boss tells Jeff to take him home but the pair instead go back to the club in an attempt to find Aeolus (and Frank's wallet). The bartender who served them doesn't start their shift until later, so the two decide to wait till then to find out information on the girls they were with. While Jeff naps, Frank discovers he can't charge his phone in Jeff's car and slaps the dash in frustration, suddenly turning the day to night.

At night, Natalie shows up and the men team up with her as she says she knows the drug dealer that was working the party. The trio attempt to leave in Jeff's car but it does not start. While waiting for the car to move, Frank witnesses an accident and goes to help, but his consciousness is teleported away just as he's hit by another car. He finds himself next to Theresa in an ethereal field, where they talk about looking for each other. Quickly afterwards, he is teleported back into Jeff's car as it stops in front of the dealer's house.

Inside the residence, the trio find out the guy Natalie knew, Richie, is not Aeolus. They go to leave, but Richie notices Frank is tripping, and offers him a multitude of drugs that could bring him down. Frank agrees while the others go to the car, and then starts hallucinating as Richie is asking him about the drug he took. In his confused state, Frank grabs and consumes as many of Richie's drugs as he can. He immediately blasts away to a mythical place, where Theresa explains that the universe is always trying to achieve balance.

Frank snaps back to reality inside the car with Jeff and Natalie as they are being shot at by Richie and his guard Lamont for stealing the drugs. Richie takes them back to his place where Lamont ties up Jeff and Natalie and beats Frank. Frank calls Cheryl to get money from her parents but she hangs up. Fed up, Richie is about to shoot Natalie when Frank slams his phone on the floor and snaps back to the party the previous night. He immediately finds Aeolus and sits down with him, also discovering his wallet. After talking with Aeolus, Frank transports to outside the club the next afternoon and makes a deal with the homeless man. He then transports back to Richie's, where the homeless man from El Madrid shows up with $240,000 in cash from Frank's bank accounts and a new mortgage on his house. Richie and Lamont are in shock - Frank has done all this by traveling in time - but they accept the money anyway and release the trio.

Jeff drives Natalie back to El Madrid where they find Theresa, who is now a completely different person. Frank is transported to the previous day at work where he is asked to fill out paperwork for a $4M life insurance policy attached to his promotion. Finally realizing the universe's message, he makes the fireman's widow the beneficiary of his policy. His boss sees the policy before Frank is able to mail it and threatens to fire him if he does not change it. Frank disregards the threat and time travels again, this time back to the accident outside of the El Madrid club the night before. He walks towards it to help and is hit by the intoxicated driver from before, who is actually his boss. When the police arrive on the scene, they find Richie's drugs in the trunk of his car.

Though Frank ends up deceased on the hood of the car, his consciousness wakes up lying next to the original Theresa again.

Following the death of a family member siblings James and Angelica Zacherly travel to the small town of East Willard on Christmas Eve to pay their respects. There they learn of the legend of Black Peter, Santa Claus' vengeful brother. However, when they find the lost journal of a man named Jeffrey Butler, they discover that the town has its own sordid history, one more rooted in reality.

Amy, an 11-year-old girl from Senegal, lives with her mother Mariam and two younger brothers, one of them named Ishmael, in an apartment in one of Paris's poorest neighbourhoods. She helplessly witnesses her mother suffer as her polygynous husband prepares to return with a second wife. She is also bored with Islamic culture that her aunt seeks to impress on her. Amy is fascinated by her disobedient neighbour Angelica's pre-teen twerking clique, the Cuties, which is in stark contrast to Mariam's Muslim customs. They do not hesitate to adopt revealing outfits in the image of their older rivals, the Sweety Swags. Encouraged by the quest for online recognition, Amy decides to incorporate sexually suggestive dance moves into the choreography. Following a humiliation at school where she gets pantsed after fighting with a rival dance group, Amy steals her cousin’s phone and sends a photo of her vulva online to a social network in an attempt to look mature, backfiring heavily with her being ostracised. This in turn also causes a rift between her and the Cuties, who ban her from performing with them; being replaced with former member Yasmine. Her mother also yells at her for committing such indecent actions.

While her father's wedding day corresponds to the finale at the Parc de la Villette, she is determined to dance with them, and sneaks out of the house. She pushes Yasmine into a canal, so the Cuties have no choice but to allow her to dance with them. The highly suggestive dance routine polarized audiences. Suddenly thinking about her mother during the routine, Amy bursts into tears and leaves before their performance ends. Upon her return, she runs into her aunt, who blames her for her outfit and recent attitude. Amy's mother intervenes by telling her to leave her daughter alone and then hugs her to reassure her. Amy's aunt implores her mother to not allow her to attend the wedding in order to demonstrate her disapproval. Amy's mother permits her not to go, but states that she herself must go to fulfill her duty as a wife. In the end, Amy abandons both the traditional wedding dress and her provocative dancer's outfit, living a normal youth lifestyle.

The movie begins with an introduction to both Karen and Jack's lives before they are committed to a mental rehabilitation facility in 1974. The audience learns that Karen grew up in a white middle-class family, while Jack's mother died during childbirth, leaving him alone with his abusive father. It is during his childhood that his obsession with Elvis Presley begins.

At the rehab facility, Karen and Jack meet and fall in love with one another. As their love story progresses, Jack finds out that Elvis is not as wholesome as he thought he was, and he informs Karen that it is his life's destiny to kill Elvis. The trigger for their killing spree is when their doctor touches Karen inappropriately and upon hearing this news, Jack shoots the doctor and the security guards, allowing the couple to escape.

They then go to Jack's home, where they find his friend Teijo, who hid guns and money for Jack before he was sent to the rehab facility, but the money has turned up missing. Teijo joins the crew and they go to Jack's father's house to try to get money from him, but they shoot him when he refuses. The crew now heads to an acquaintance of Jack's trailer to learn of Elvis's location and how to access his hotel. After getting the information they came for, they head to Los Angeles to finish their mission.

Stopping along the way, Karen informs Teijo that she has missed her period and might be pregnant. Later that night, Karen tells Jack she is having second thoughts about killing Elvis. As they are fighting, they are attacked by law enforcement, and Teijo is shot and killed. Following his death, Karen and Jack continue to Los Angeles and check-into the Shangri-La Suite at a beachside hotel. Karen then tells Jack that she might be pregnant and he agrees to include the baby in his destiny.

The next morning, Jack leaves alone to finish his destiny of killing Elvis. Karen goes by herself to complete her dream of swimming in the Pacific Ocean, where she unknowingly meets Elvis's wife and daughter. She then steals the hotel attendant's car and leaves the city. The last time she is seen, she gets her period at a gas station and no one has seen her since. Jack makes it to Elvis's suite, but loses the nerve to kill him and is killed by Elvis himself. This gives Elvis the nerve he needs to become his former self and goes on to begin his 1974 tour.

Jimmi Clay (Adrian Lewis Morgan) calls Kira Hyde on video chat for a counselling session, while Ruhma Carter (Bharti Patel) chats with son Shak Hanif (Sunjay Midda) online. Ruhma then catches up with Bear Sylvester (Dex Lee), Daniel Granger (Matthew Chambers), and Emma Reid (Dido Miles) about events at The Mill Health Centre and St Phils Hospital due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Ruhma tells Emma about her illness symptoms, and Emma suspects it could be COVID-19. Zara Carmichael (Elisabeth Dermot Walsh) confides in Emma about the anxiety she is feeling due to the pandemic, as does Karen Hollins (Jan Pearson).

Ruhma calls Daniel, where she displays further symptoms of coronavirus, and she is later admitted to hospital. Valerie Pitman (Sarah Moyle) lip-syncs to music to cheer Al Haskey (Ian Midlane) up. Karen talks to daughter Imogen (Charlie Clemmow), where Imogen reveals that she has lost her job, and has been unemployed for three weeks. Rob Hollins (Chris Walker) reveals that domestic violence rates in Letherbridge are up, while Shak worries about the fate of Ruhma. All of the team join a zoom call to celebrate Ruhma surviving coronavirus, and Al hosts a quiz for them.

Disobeying orders, ASTRA Corporation explorer Selene Vassos attempts to land on the off-limits planet of Atropos to investigate what she dubs the "White Shadow" signal, which somehow seems familiar to her. Upon arrival, Selene's ship Helios suffers heavy damage and crash lands. Unable to contact ASTRA, Selene explores the planet and is shocked when she comes across corpses of herself. She learns that every time she dies, time loops back to the moment she crashed, sending her back to her starting point. The planet seems to change with every loop, and Selene begins experiencing vivid visions.

Resolving to find the source of the White Shadow, Selene presses on, fighting hostile alien lifeforms and scavenging alien technology left over from the advanced, extinct alien civilization that used to reside on Atropos. As she tracks the White Shadow, Selene comes across what appears to be a replica of her childhood home. Every time she enters it, she recalls old memories and repeatedly encounters an astronaut wearing an antique space suit. Selene eventually learns that she apparently used an alien cannon to paradoxically shoot down her own ship which caused her to be stranded on Atropos.

Eventually, Selene tracks down the source of the White Shadow. Afterwards, ASTRA is able to receive her distress call and sends a rescue ship. Selene returns to Earth and eventually dies of old age, only to reawaken back on Atropos, having looped back to the crash. Dismayed that she has failed to escape Atropos, Selene continues to explore the planet. Eventually, her search leads her to an underwater abyss below the planet's surface, where she finds a replica of an old car. From this point, the game diverges based on whether Selene fully investigated her house and recovered the car keys from it.

• If Selene did not recover the car keys, she proceeds to the bottom of the abyss where she encounters a massive, octopus-like alien creature. She is then shown a vision of a middle-aged woman, who looks similar to Selene, driving through a forest at night with a young child (whose motion-capture actor is credited as "Helios" in the game's end credits) in the back seat. While passing over a bridge, the woman sees the astronaut standing in the middle of the road and swerves to avoid it, driving the car off the bridge and into the lake below. The woman attempts to reach the now unconscious child but is pulled out of the car by dark cloud-like tentacles. A first-person perspective of the lake surface from below is then shown. The cloud-like tentacles reappear, pulling the viewer away from the surface and deeper into the lake.
• If Selene recovered the car keys, she opens the car and confronts a pregnant humanoid creature seated in a wheelchair. Selene fights off the creature and is transported back to the car crash from the perspective of the astronaut, implying that she is the astronaut that the driver swerved to avoid. Selene then finds herself underwater and swims to the surface, crying out the name "Helios" as she does.

Having just been hit by a car, a dog narrator sets up a frame story in which the events of the film are established as her life flashing before her eyes. The dog was born to a street dog and a purebred dog that purports to hate non-purebreds, thus the narrator muses that this is a shining example of blind love. Born as the youngest of a litter of nine, the narrator acquires her first name Nine. She is quickly given up and ends up as a stray for a period of time until she is taken in by an acrobat named Manole.

Manole names her Ana, and provides her with a humble, yet happy life as they travel around performing on the streets. Ana experiences love for a human for the first time, becoming extremely loyal and satisfied with the state of her life. However, she realizes that she is holding Manole back from achieving his dreams, and when she sees how unhappy he is, she decides to run away.

Once again living on the streets, the next human to find her is a construction worker named Istvan, who brings food to her every day. The narrator acquires her third name: Sara. Eventually, he decides to take her to his sick mother's house. After an accident that results in his mother hurting Sara, Istvan decides to take her in himself. While his girlfriend initially seems eager to have a pet, she quickly grows tired of the dog. Once again, Sara reminisces how she could smell the unhappiness of Istvan, and decides that it is best for her to leave.

As she is walking through a park, a little girl named Solange finds the dog and decides to take her in and name her Marona. Solange lives with her single mother and her grandfather, who are both skeptical of Marona at first, but grow to love her. Years pass by and Solange, now a teenage, takes Marona on a walk and decides to tie her to a tree and sneak off — presumably to go to a party. Marona escapes and chases after her, eventually resulting in her being hit by a car.

In the world of ''Kena: Bridge of Spirits'', deceased people can remain between the physical and spirit worlds if they are traumatized or feel unfinished. The task of spirit guides is to understand their difficulties and help them to move on. In the game, a young spirit guide named Kena (Dewa Ayu Dewi Larassanti) travels to an abandoned village in search of the sacred Mountain Shrine. She collects small companions called the Rot, who help her throughout her journey. On the way to the village, she confronts a powerful masked spirit who reveals himself to be the cause of corruption in the forest, forcing it to decay and unleashing deadly monsters on the land. Kena insists that she can help his spirit move on, but he refuses and leaves. In the village, Kena meets former elder Zajuro (Vlasta Vrána), who informs her that she must help the trapped spirits before being granted passage to the shrine.

Kena follows the spirits of two young children, Saiya (Sam Cavallaro) and Beni (Joshua Vincent), whose older brother Taro (Tod Fennell) is a restless spirit struggling to move on. After discovering relics of Taro's memories, Kena defeats the corruption that has overtaken him. Taro tells her that, after a sickness killed their parents and spread throughout the village, he took his siblings and sought help from Rusu (Alan Adelberg) but they were told to return to the village. On the journey back, Taro witnessed the explosion of the Mountain Shrine; its impact wiped out the village. As a spirit, he desperately searched for his siblings, but the corruption overwhelmed him. Kena tells Taro to forgive himself, and that his siblings need him; he embraces them, and their spirits move on.

Kena seeks to help the village's Woodsmith, Adira (Amber Goldfarb); on the way, she encounters the spirit of Adira's partner, Hana (Gita Miller). After Kena finds relics of Adira's memories, Adira tells her that she and Hana had discovered how to focus the energy of the Mountain within the Village Heart, but it had started to fade. When the sickness began to spread throughout the village, Hana left to search for food and supplies, but never returned. To help Hana find her way home, Adira built a tower and put the Village Heart at the top of it; while doing so, the Mountain Shrine exploded, wiping her out. Kena tells Adira to forgive herself, and that the work she built with Hana would forever be a part of the land; Adira and Hana embrace, and their spirits move on.

To reach the Mountain Shrine, Kena attempts to help the powerful masked spirit, revealed to be the former village leader Toshi (Masashi Odate), but his corruption overpowers her. Kena finds relics of Toshi's past in the spirit realm and attempts to free him of corruption, but he overpowers her again and takes control of the Rot. She confronts him atop the mountain, where he fuses the Rot with corruption to create a giant corrupted Rot monster. Kena takes back the Rot and defeats the creature. Toshi tells Kena that he sought answers after the village was overcome with sickness; Zajuro told him that it was the natural cycle of the Rot God and that they must find a new home, but Toshi refused. He confronted the Rot God atop the Mountain to inquire about the suffering inflicted upon his people. The Rot God did not answer, provoking Toshi to kill it and causing the explosion that wiped out the village and its inhabitants. Kena tells Toshi to forgive himself, and his and Zajuro's spirits move on. Kena bids farewell to the Rot, revealed to be fragments of the Rot God. The Rot combines to restore the spirit of the Rot God while Kena meditates on the Mountain Shrine.

''Little Devil Inside'' takes place in a 19th-century, Victorian-inspired setting, with elements of steampunk. The developers describe it as a "surreal, unrealistic world ... somewhere between heaven and hell." The main character, Billy, is a swordsman, employed by a research team (led by college professor Vincent and his colleague, Dr. Oliver) to travel the world in search of the supernatural and other unusual incidents. The ultimate objective set out by the researchers is to assemble a complete encyclopaedia of "all phenomenal existence."

The game also takes a satirical angle on the video game cliché of hunting monsters for financial reward by also exploring the more mundane aspects of such characters' lives and their financial inequality with their employers. In the words of Neostream:

"This game is not just about killing arch-demons and saving the world. Take in the atmosphere and live a realistic life in an unrealistic world. This is a game that tells stories about people with ‘unusual’ jobs such as hunting monsters and what happens in their everyday life doing so."

When Janet (D'Arcy Carden) brings Eleanor, Chidi, Tahani, and Jason into her void – an alternate dimension tied to her essence – the four humans are accidentally transformed into versions of Janet. The original Janet gives each person different clothes to identify them before she and Michael (Ted Danson) leave to visit Accounting. The humans stay in Janet's void, as they are now fugitives within the afterlife.

Michael and Janet meet the head accountant, Neil (Stephen Merchant). Neil insists the Bad Place cannot be tampering with the afterlife points system but agrees to show them the system anyway. He explains that everything someone does on Earth is assigned a positive or negative point value. If something new occurs, an accountant gives it a value based on its intentions, effects, and other factors. Every new value is verified by three billion other accountants, leaving no room for tampering. Despite this, Michael asks to see Doug Forcett's file. Neil finds the Book of Dougs and says Doug is on track for the Bad Place. Michael considers this proof of tampering, as Doug has spent his life devoted to good actions. He asks to see a file for someone on track for the Good Place; Neil reveals nobody has reached the Good Place in 521 years.

In Janet's void, Eleanor-Janet talks with Chidi-Janet about their past romantic relationships. Chidi-Janet argues those experiences happened to him in different lives. He cites several philosophers to prove his point, but Eleanor-Janet becomes frustrated and thinks he is avoiding a discussion of his feelings. Meanwhile, Jason-Janet and Tahani-Janet discover signs of Janet's romantic feelings for Jason. After more failed attempts to get Chidi-Janet to talk, Eleanor-Janet wonders why she is bothering to reach out to him. Her resulting identity crisis causes her to change into random bodies, and Janet's void begins to collapse. To restore her identity, Chidi-Janet lists off Eleanor's memories and the good things she has done before ultimately kissing her. This causes the four humans to both regain their normal appearances and be ejected from Janet's void. Michael, Janet, and the humans flee from the accountants; Michael takes the Book of Dougs with him. The six escape via a pneumatic tube and arrive in a mailroom. Eleanor (Kristen Bell) realizes they are in the Good Place.

While a group of four stray cats trek through the ruins of an abandoned facility, one becomes separated from the others after jumping on a loose pipe, falling into a chasm, and finding itself trapped in an unpopulated underground city. The cat soon finds a lab where it helps download an artificial intelligence into the body of a small drone, who calls itself B-12. It explains that it previously helped a scientist but much of its memory was corrupted and needs time to recover. B-12 promises to help the cat return to the surface and accompanies it further into the city. As they travel farther, the pair discover that, while the city is completely devoid of human life, their robotic servants, Companions, remain. In the time of humanity's absence, the Companions have grown self-aware and have built their own society among the ruins of the city, but they likewise are trapped underground. The ruins are also infested with Zurks, mutant creatures that have evolved to devour both organic life and robots.

The pair meet Momo, who is a member of the Outsiders, a group of Companions dedicated to finding a way to the surface. With the Outsiders's help, the cat and B-12 are able to proceed to the Midtown sector of the city. There, they locate Clementine, another Outsider who plans to steal an atomic battery to power a subway train that leads to the surface. The trio are caught and arrested by the Sentinels, but the cat is able to help them all escape prison. Clementine stays behind to mislead the Sentinels while the cat and B-12 escape on the subway, which takes them to the city control center. B-12 finally recovers all of its memories. It reveals that it was originally a human scientist who attempted to upload their own consciousness into a robot body, but the process went awry until the cat arrived. B-12 also remembers that the city, Walled City 99, was built to shelter humanity from a catastrophe on the surface, but a plague eventually wiped out the entire human population. Realising that humanity's legacy now lies with the Companions and the cat, B-12 sacrifices itself to open the blast doors over the city, exposing it to sunlight which kills the Zurks and deactivates the Sentinels. With the main exit unsealed, the cat leaves the city and reaches the surface. As the cat leaves, a screen near the exit flickers and activates.

The son and Leah make Marcus understand the new faith that is changing the world.

A comic account of Governor Phillips's 1788 landing in Australia. It is set in the modern day on the mythical island of Extrania, where Lieut. Tilley has been sent to establish a penal colony.

Following the destruction of Alderaan, Darth Vader orders all Imperial forces to hunt down any refugees who escaped the planet's destruction. Captain Lindon Javes of the Imperial Navy is tasked by Commodore Rae Sloane to lead Helix Squadron in finding and eliminating a convoy of refugees at Fostar Haven. Despite locating the convoy, Javes turns on his wingmen and disables their ships to protect the refugees. The convoy sends a distress signal to the Rebel Alliance, who dispatches Echo Squadron to assist in the convoy’s escape. After the battle, Javes defects to the Alliance, offering his knowledge of Imperial Fleet protocols to earn their trust.

Four years later, after the Alliance's victory in the Battle of Endor, the newly promoted Commander Javes assumes command of the New Republic cruiser ''Temperance'' and its elite fighter squadron, Vanguard Squadron. Assigned to the secret project known as Starhawk, the squadron undertakes missions to ensure Project Starhawk’s completion. It is later revealed that the project is a massive battleship constructed from stolen Star Destroyers and has a powerful tractor beam.

Meanwhile, Imperial Captain Terisa Kerrill, Javes' former protégé and wingman, is eager to take vengeance on him for his betrayal and is assigned to put an end to Project Starhawk before its completion. She assigns her own elite fighter squadron, Titan Squadron, to hinder the New Republic’s progress to complete the ''Starhawk''. While Titan Squadron's initial operations are a success, an impulsive Kerrill is baited into a trap by Javes which nearly destroys her Star Destroyer, the ''Overseer''. Unwilling to let Javes go, Kerrill has her ship resupplied with powerful warheads to damage the ''Starhawk''.

An Imperial assault at the Nadiri Dockyards badly damages the ''Starhawk'', although it manages to escape destruction. In an attempt to defend what’s left of the battleship, Javes personally takes command of Anvil Squadron but is later shot down and presumed dead. The ''Starhawk'' itself becomes damaged beyond repair by Titan Squadron, although Vanguard Squadron, now led by General Hera Syndulla, make a last stand and use the remains of ''Starhawk'' to destroy an Imperial fleet by ramming it into an unstable moon. The plan is a success and, with the help of a surviving Javes, Vanguard Squadron manages to escape the explosion. Both Titan and Vanguard Squadrons are commended for their actions, with the New Republic planning to construct more ''Starhawk'' battleships while the Empire makes plans to regain control of the galaxy.

Following the events of "A Trout in the Milk", against General Rick Stoner's orders, the Lighthouse automatically fires missiles at ''Zephyr One'', damaging the time drive.

Privy to the lives of all humans, whose prayers he carries from their mouths into the presence of God, the Archangel Raphael enters into the worlds of two insignificant households: the family of Tobit, and the family of Raguel.

The ageing Tobit and his wife Anna, who have been exiled in Nineveh, are almost overwhelmed by the turns that their life together has taken. Tasked with oversight of a commercial enterprise owned by the King of Assyria, Sargon II, Tobit is able to provide a comfortable life for his family. Not content to lie low in this foreign and dangerous land, however, the merchant makes the life of his family precarious by his nightly activities. When the King and his murderous son, Sennacherib, leave the corpses of Jews out in the streets or on refuse tips, Tobit rescues the bodies and facilitates a proper burial. Returning from one such nocturnal mission, Tobit falls asleep in his own courtyard. While he is sleeping a sparrow defecates on his face, and when he wakes it is to find that he is blind. Where he once saved the bodies of his fellow Jews and gave the poor among them money, now Tobit is reduced to a life of angry passivity, while his exasperated wife is forced to take up sewing for prosperous families of the neighbourhood.

The lives of Raguel, his wife, Edna, and his daughter, Sarah, are no less unfortunate. Afraid of arranged marriage and the ‘embrace of a virtual stranger’, the beautiful young Sarah has made a Faust-like pact with a demon named Asmodeus. Edna’s zeal to have her daughter married ensures that she is approached by many men, all of whom desire her hand. Each new husband is found dead in the morning, and, by the time the number has risen to seven, she is suicidal with regret. Ecbatana, their hometown, is filled with suspicious chatter, and Sarah’s reputation, and with it the reputation of her family, has been shattered. Her prayer to the Almighty that he might end her life coincides with Tobit’s prayer that God might do the same, and it is Raphael who carries their morbid requests into the presence of God.

Convinced that God will answer his macabre prayer, Tobit begins preparations for an imminent death. Chief among those he must make ready for this eventuality is his son, Tobias, who has ‘always been somewhat slower to understand things than most people’. For the preservation of the household, Tobit insists that his son must set out on a journey to the home of an old friend, Gabael, in far-off Media, with whom the crafty old merchant has hidden two sacks of silver. As Tobias sets out on the road he is met by a stranger, Azarias, who is mysteriously well acquainted with both with Media and Gabael. Unbeknown to Tobias, his new companion is the Archangel Raphael, who has taken it upon himself to step down into the material world in order to bring about a reversal in fortune for this beleaguered family.

Before long, the disguised archangel realises the wisdom of his decision to join Tobias. While Azarias fishes in the Tigris for their supper one evening, his naïve companion, who has taken to swimming in the deep water, becomes embroiled in a life and death struggle with a large fish. Following the fight, in which Tobias himself is nearly killed, Azarias directs him to remove the innards from the great fish, and stow them away in a bag, claiming that they might have some future use. As the two travellers enter Ecbatana, Azarias informs Tobias of his plan to see the young man married to Sarah, the beautiful daughter of a friend of his named Raguel. Despite his initial fear of the proposition, having heard tale of Sarah and her husbands, Tobias agrees to enter into the marriage contract. Azarias’s suggestion that the bridegroom burn some of the fish entrails before heading into the bridal chamber results in the final defeat of Asmodeus, who is overpowered by the smoke and sent fleeing from the scene. The family rejoice in the morning when they find the newlyweds alive and happy.

When Azarias, who has been despatched to Media by Tobias, returns with Tobit’s silver in hand, the new couple begin their journey back to Nineveh. Tobit and Anna, who have begun to fear that their son has met his death, are transported by joy at his return with his new wife. Once more at the direction of Azarias, Tobias makes use of his fermented fish entrails, rubbing them on the eyes of his blind father. The miraculous return of Tobit’s sight is cause for further joy, and the novel closes as Raphael privately reveals his true identity to Tobias, encouraging him as he departs to continue in his father’s charitable ways.

After his superiors insist on burying the truth, Travis leaves in disgust, only to be forced back twelve years later to hunt down Baywara, an Aboriginal warrior whose attacks on new settlers are causing havoc. When Travis recruits mission-raised Gutjuk, the only known massacre survivor, as his tracker, the truth of the past is revealed and Travis becomes the hunted.

The story is told in the first person by an unnamed male narrator. He recalls that in 1819, he was on a stagecoach from Paris to Moulins where he met another young man, and they discussed their love affairs with older married women. The stagecoach rolls over, and the other young man is fatally injured. Before he dies, he asks the narrator to go to his home, fetch the love letters from his lover and return them to her.

The narrator does as he is told, and goes to the château of Count and Countess de Montpersan outside Moulins to return the letters. There he informs the couple of the young man's death. The narrator is asked to stay for dinner by the count. However, the countess does not attend the dinner, and the narrator joins a search for her. He finds her in an outbuilding crying for her young lover.

Later that night, the countess visits the narrator's room to learn more of her lover's death, and he also returns the letters. When he leaves the next day, the count gives him some money which he asks him to return to a friend in Paris. On his return, the narrator learns that the money is actually for him, and that the countess has given him the money to pay for the expenses of his journey.

In 1989, Canadian journalist Victor Malarek investigates the circumstances surrounding the suspicious arrest of Daniel Léger, a 25-year-old heroin addict serving time in a prison in Thailand and facing the death penalty.

Malarek is a dedicated investigative journalist working for The Globe and Mail newspaper who is being pressured by his boss to move to writing weekly feature articles. He comes across the strange case of a Canadian citizen under arrest in Thailand after a joint investigation by Canadian and Thai authorities, in which Léger is identified as a mastermind in the drug trafficking trade. Malarek's interest is piqued when he queries a few details with the Canadian authorities and receives push back. He decides to dig deeper and uncovers some worrying items about the case. He brings the case to his editor Art with a view to doing a piece. Art reluctantly agrees to let Malarek visit Thailand to interview the Thai authorities and Léger.

The film then splits and introduces Daniel Léger, shown to be little more than a drug addict who unwittingly took a job with dealer Glen Picker. Picker befriends the naïve Léger and offers to let him stay and work for him, all the while intending to set up Léger for a pay-off from the Canadian police narcotics division. He identifies Léger as a major player in the Thai drug world and indicates that Léger can organize a major shipment of heroin to be smuggled to Canada. The narcotics police, in need of a major morale-boosting drug seizure, fall for Picker's scam. The lead detective, Frank Cooper, makes an egregious error while reviewing Léger's file and mistakes him for another criminal with a detailed criminal history.

Picker manipulates Léger into meeting with Detective Cooper under the guise of a favor and believes the ruse that Cooper is a drug smuggler. The narcotics operation hits a snag when it's uncovered that Léger is nervous to travel to Thailand, and he has had his passport withheld. The Canadian police arrange for Léger's passport to be issued and pay for the young man's flights, hotels and expenses in Thailand. Léger, left with no other options, travels to Thailand and tries to put together a drug buy but can only find a Tuk Tuk driver who can get two kilos of heroin. The Canadian police agree to the deal but it goes awry.

Léger turns up with Cooper, who is working undercover, and the suppliers arrive separately. There is a struggle, and in the chaos that ensues, Detective Cooper shoots his son Al Cooper fatally. The drug suppliers are arrested, alongside Léger, and taken to a Thai prison.

Malarek meets with and interviews Léger, uncovering the aforementioned details. Upon leaving the prison, Malarek shouts to Léger to plead guilty, as he will likely be found guilty and given the death penalty otherwise. At the trial, Léger is unable to understand the proceedings. Detective Cooper testifies falsely that Léger is a hardened criminal with a long list of convictions in Canada. Léger pleads his innocence, but once he has been found guilty, he alters his plea to guilty and receives a 100-year sentence.

In Canada, Malarek is feeling pressure to proceed with the investigation. He loses his job at The Globe and Mail and on TV and his wife leaves him due to the pressure. A last ray of hope is offered when Malarek's article is read by the newly formed ethics investigation department, who review Léger's case and petition him to respond.

The film concludes with Léger's release from a Thailand prison, where he kicked his addiction. He then educates himself in the Thai judicial system and, after serving eight years, manages to get a prison transfer. Malarek meets him at the airport, where it is revealed that both of Léger's parents have passed, but it is shown that Léger maintains a positive outlook and is practicing Buddhism.

Cooper and his fellow officers received commendations, and the investigation into their handling of the Léger case was watered down, while Malarek returns to investigative journalism.

Breecher finds Cooke on his farm and learns that Reginald is being cared for by his daughter, Sarah (Mira Sorvino) as he is dying of pneumonia. Breecher decides to neither shoot nor hang Cooke, but to stay at his homestead until he passes away from the disease. During his stay, he becomes close to Sarah.

Breecher travels to see a neighboring landowner, Fred Quaid (James Russo). He offers Quaid money to stop threatening the Cooke's in order to sell their land to him. Quaid offers to leave them alone if Breecher can beat Quaid's best man in a fist fight. Breecher accepts and wins the fight, then returns to the Cooke's homestead. The next day however, Quaid and several men attack the Cooke homestead. Breecher and Sarah Cooke hold them off. Reginald steps outside with a gun to help, and is shot by Quaid, who is in turn shot by Breecher.

He stumbles to the local church, where he finds the bartender from the saloon (Amanda Wyss) and gives her a message to wire to his patron, Senator Benjamin Burke (Tony Todd). Burke responds that Breecher should use his own discretion and proceed "by any means necessary."

He marches to the saloon and engages in a gunfight with Wainwright's men, which he wins. Wainwright is drawn out, and challenges Breecher to a showdown in which they are both shot. Breecher survives his injury, retrieves Wainwright's Sheriff's badge and departs town, later collapsing in a grove.

Harlan Red finds him and bandages his wounds. In thanks, Breecher tells Red where to find Wainwright's body, to collect the bounty. Breecher continues on, eventually reaching the Cooke homestead, where he finds Sarah.

During the events of the series finale of the fifth season, Samurai Jack's love interest Ashi uses her abilities inherited by Aku, her father, to warp herself and Jack back to the latter's own time. However, Aku makes one final bid to stop Jack by shooting a laser through the time portal to divert him to a "timeless realm" without any past, present, or future, filled with locales and characters from Jack's past adventures.

Jack first lands in the mines where he once helped dog archaeologists defend against Aku's beetle drones in his first major battle in the future. After defeating the beetle drone army again without their help, Jack ends up in a swamp infested with robot alligators: the site of his first battle alongside the Scotsman, whom he finds wearing a mind-controlling pendant bearing Aku's visage. After fighting and freeing the Scotsman and destroying the pendant, Jack is transported to the Castle of Boon, where he helped the Scotsman rescue his wife. Here, Aku personally informs Jack of the timeless realm, warning him that everything familiar may not be what it seems. Upon eliminating the Celtic demons there and rescuing the Scotsman's daughters, Jack travels up a mountain, fighting bounty hunters along the way, before battling a giant Binary Beetle at its summit, powered by an Aku pendant that Jack destroys. He is then whisked to the Cave of the Ancient, where he hears the voice of the Ancient King, a Viking warrior he once freed from being imprisoned in a rock body. Following an encounter with Demongo the Soul Collector, Jack discovers that the Ancient King is controlled by yet another Aku pendant and defeats him again to take and destroy the pendant, sending himself to a large cemetery full of dust zombies, where Aku once nearly killed him. Battling the zombies throughout the cemetery, Jack eventually faces down the witch hag he once encountered there, empowered by another Aku pendant that Jack destroys to be warped to Aku City. Traveling underground and aboveground, Jack fends off familiar foes, including the Imakandi hunters, and eventually crosses paths with Ezekiel and Josephine Clench, a bounty hunter couple whom he must battle again on a train out of the city. Defeating them and leaving them at the mercy of robot alligators, Jack recovers an Aku pendant from them and destroys it, unaware it is the last one. As more pendants are destroyed, the timeless realm weakens a little, and Jack catches glimpses of Ashi, Aku, and his way out.

Following the pendants’ destruction, Jack starts reliving some events of the final season of the series with his bearded appearance. He goes through a ruined city while wearing mechanical samurai armor to confront robot assassin Scaramouche, then journeys through a forest and a temple to battle the Daughters of Aku. He reminds the daughters that he had defeated them before and encourages them to choose another path, but he is forced to kill them all, including whom he believes is Ashi herself after Aku shoves her into his sword. Jack expresses guilt over killing Ashi and despair over being trapped in the timeless realm, but a vision of his younger self encourages him to forget about the past and reminds him that Aku is already losing and knows how powerful Jack really is. The two Jacks merge into his more familiar, clean-shaven appearance again. The mortally wounded Ashi returns after Jack defeats the monstrous Lazarus-92 in its crashed prison ship and tries to shame Jack about killing her before transforming into her demonic form and fighting him in the robot graveyard where he once faced its time portal's guardian. Jack discovers that this Ashi is not real, as the real Ashi suddenly breaks into the realm to destroy her. She then opens a portal for Jack to go to Aku's tower for a final showdown. Sir Rothchild, the Scotsman, Flora, and Da' Samurai arrive to fight Aku's massive armies, freeing Jack to enter the tower himself to challenge Aku. As he fights more enemies in the several levels of the tower and finishes Demongo once and for all, Jack finds and battles Aku at the top of the tower. Upon defeating Aku, the timeless realm collapses, allowing Jack to reenter the time portal he was using and return to feudal Japan, where he destroys Aku for good. This leads to the remaining events of the series finale, including Ashi's demise due to the grandfather paradox.

If the player collects all the kamons belonging to Jack's father but corrupted by Aku, they can unlock an alternate ending where Jack and Ashi live together happily ever after regardless of Aku's destruction thanks to the time pocket copy of the future preventing Ashi's nonexistence.
