It was an evening in Calcutta in the year 1945. The boarders of the shared apartment at no. 72, Banamali Naskar Lane gathered in the common room and were busy chatting casually amongst themselves on various topics. Bipin, one of the boarders, mentioned about arrangements of eradication of mosquitos in his village. Just at that moment GhanaDa appeared. With due respect he was offered the lone easy chair which was the best seat around, and a cigarette from Shishir as loan. GhanaDa humbly declared that he killed just one mosquito in his life time once on 5th August, 1939 in Sakhalin island of Japan.

The story narrated by GhanaDa revealed that he was engaged by a company in Sakhalin to collect amber sometime during 1939. Whern Tanlin, a chinese laborer went missing with a bag of amber, GhanaDa along with Mr. Martin, the doctor, initiateda search for him. Tipped by a ''Gilyak'' tribesman he landed up to a scientific laboratory set by Mr. Nishimara, an entomologist. It was later revealed that Mr. Nishamara was genetically converting the mosquitos into deadly agents of biological warfare, and Tanlin became a victim of his cruel experiment. When the lone genetically engineered mosquito landed of the face of Mr. Nishimara and sealed his fate by stinging him, GhanaDa slapped Nishmara killing the mosquito and eliminated once and for all a severe threat towards humanity. He declared he never intended to kill another mosquito ever after in his life time.

It was a rainy day in 1947. The city of Calcutta had almost become Venice. Most of the streets were waterlogged, with almost no public transport available. All boarders of the shared apartment at 72 Banamali Naskar Lane were detained for day long and desperately trying to pass time, expecting GhanaDa to initiate his tall tales. Unfortunately, GhanaDa was not in a mood to talk that day and his only activity was to yawn like a roaring lion. It was a complete failure in instigating GhanaDa to open his mouth, and after trying hard for a long time discussing various topics, Ram directly charged him saying, ”GhanaDa, didn’t you do weight lifting ever?”

There the story began.

The story was based on Efata, the capital of New Hebrides, presently known as the Vanuatu. GhanaDa was there apparently in connection with his business of Sandalwood, and was stationed in the small Island of Aneghowhat ( ) in the south of Port Villa. He met Monsieur Petra, a French man explorer. Six years later he again met Petra in a uninhabited island about ten miles away from Aneghowhat. On the top of a mysterious hill about two thousand feet high there was a mysterious lake high above the sea level. M. Petra was stationed in a cave and along with him GhanaDa dived into the depth of the lake only to find an abundance of diamond embedded in the belts of bluish Kimberlite under the water of the lake. GhanaDa couldn't resist himself from lifting one large piece of Diamond, and BOOM! the island blew up.

When Shibu asked, “Where is that diamond now, GhanaDa?”, GhanaDa was unmindful. Apparently he couldn't hear and didn't reply.

Former United States Marine Corps Scout Sniper and Vietnam War veteran Jim Hanson, a widower and alcoholic lives along the Arizona-Mexico border alongside his dog, Jackson, and reports attempted illegal crossings to the United States Border Patrol, for whom his step-daughter Sarah Pennington works. One day, while on patrol, he encounters Rosa and her son Miguel, Mexican citizens on the run from the cartel.

Hanson calls border patrol on them before he sees a cartel truck approaching. He ends the call and gets involved in a shootout with a cartel gang led by Mauricio. Hanson shoots and kills Mauricio's brother. Rosa is fatally wounded by one of the cartel members. Before she dies, she gives Hanson a note that lists her family's address in Chicago. Hanson reluctantly agrees to take Miguel to her family in Chicago.

Border patrol show up after her death and take in Miguel. One of the cartel members comes in and claims that he's a relative of Miguel. Hanson happens to see their car there and sneaks Miguel out to go to Chicago.

The cartel use fake passports to get into America to follow Hanson and Miguel. A corrupt border patrol officer sees their gang tattoos, recognizes that the passports are fake, and allows them in anyway.

After Hanson uses his credit card to repair his truck, Mauricio tracks the pair to Route 66 in Texas. A corrupt cop follows Hanson and Miguel and pulls them over after they found out where they were. The cop tells Hanson to get in the police vehicle while he “goes and talks to the boy”. The cop takes Hanson's driver's license and keys and searches his pickup truck, but never actually talks to Miguel. Realizing the officer is corrupt Hanson subdues the officer and retrieves his keys. A short while later, Mauricio and the rest of the cartel catch up with the corrupt officer and kill him while Hanson and Miguel watch from a distance.

Hanson and Miguel continue to make their way north. While staying at a motel, Hanson bribes the receptionist to not register him and Miguel as guests before the cartel shows up and during the escape, they kill Jackson.

The patch on the truck's radiator fails while attempting to get away from the cartel and they are forced to stop. Eventually, Mauricio and his men catch up to Hanson and a firefight breaks out on a nearby farm. Hanson manages to kill three of the cartel members, but Mauricio captures Miguel.

After a skirmish, Hanson is stabbed but seriously wounds Mauricio with a gunshot. Hanson offers him a coup de grâce leaving a single bullet in his gun or a choice to shoot Hanson. As Hanson and Miguel leave the farm, they hear a gunshot, indicating that Mauricio chose to commit suicide.

The pair eventually reach Miguel's family in Chicago and the film ends with Hanson getting on a city bus. Realizing he's been fatally wounded, he finally closes his eyes and presumably dies.

Ken Holland is advised by colleague Parker to spend time with a hooker named Fay Carson as his wife Ann is away. Fay Carson and Ken enjoy each other's company throughout the evening, and Fay introduces him to her acquaintances at the bar as well, including the owner Sam Darcy and an ex pal Gilda Dorman, who leaves soon after. That night on returning to her apartment Fay is murdered silently by an unknown assailant in her bedroom with an ice pick. Ken wipes off all his traces and flees the apartment in terror. Fay's neighbor Mr Raphael Sweeting, a small time offender looking for a big break, always carrying a pet Pekinese dog with him, sees Ken. Soon the police and politicians in California are on the case. The police find no reason to suspect Ken or Parker despite questioning them. Parker tells Ken not to mention his name ever regarding Fay.

Lieutenant Harry Adams and Sergeant Donovan are put on the case, each trying to solve it for advancing their careers. Police commissioner Paul Howard and his despised brother-in-law Captain of police Motley are not in good terms, and Motley has married his glamorous sister Gloria to Howard only to get Howard to toe the line, for promotion. Howard tells Adams to carry on with his own investigations.

Howard visits Sean O'Brien, an ex drug peddler from France, now turned politician who is going to marry Gilda Dorman, the sister of Fay's ex-boyfriend Johnny Dorman who once assaulted Fay. Howard warns O'Brien that his reputation is at stake if Fay's building activities (which is actually a brothel) owned by O'Brien, come to light. It is strongly suspected that Johnny is back in California and has murdered Fay. O'Brien evicts the building and kidnaps Johnny with his henchmen Tux and Solly, keeping him in seclusion in a cruiser named ''Willow Point''.

Local goon Paradise Louie tries to blackmail Gilda for sex in exchange for his silence, as he claims Johnny visited him for Fay's whereabouts and this information can lead to Johnny's arrest; but O'Brien learns of it and gets Louie fatally assaulted by Tux and Solly. Sweeting follows Ken to blackmail him to keep silent in the case. But Ken just throws him out and finally decides to visit and confess his deeds to the cops. Donovan and subordinate detective Duncan search Ken's house and conclude Ken is the killer, with Donovan issuing a look out notice for Ken in the city.

Ken fortunately meets Adams and tells his entire story, and Adams gives him shelter at his own house from the cops, knowing that if he is arrested, O'Brien being may try to make Ken the fall guy to save his future brother-in-law Johnny from the electric chair. He also learns of Louie and takes his statement as he is dying in hospital regarding Tux and Solly. Unknown to Adams yet, O'Brien actually contemplates eliminating Johnny as he is a nuisance. Adams visits a shady hotel named ''Washington'' to find Yarde but only finds his room empty and ransacked.

Ken learns that Johnny is in ''Willow Point'' and goes there himself to investigate without informing Adams, finding a boat with help of Rose Little, a salesgirl at the amusement arcade on the shore, on time to see O'Brien meeting Johnny there at ''Willow point'', asking him to write a letter to Gilda saying he is going to Paris for a few days, promising him a flight to Paris for his safety, and then leaving the cruiser. Ken realises that O'Brien wants Tux to kill Johnny and dispose him into the sea. He frantically jumps in to warn Johnny but both are attacked by Tux, and in the ensuing fight, Tux is knocked out by Johnny. The two scamper away but soon cops note Ken and begin to chase them. They are given shelter by Rose Little unexpectedly, who nurses Johnny's wounds. Adams questions Sweeting, and he says Gilda's ex boyfriend Maurice Yarde may be the killer as he saw Yarde threatening Fay a few months ago when they broke up. When Adams leaves, Sweeting gets the idea of blackmailing Gilda for money. He visits her apartment but Gilda threatens him with a gun; he tells her about Johnny and Yarde, after which she gives him twenty dollars and tells him to leave. But Sweeting sneaks back inside Gilda's house at night and discovers Yarde's dead body in Gilda's refrigerator.

The police pursue Johnny and Ken, Tux and Solly arrive in search of Johnny and learn he is in Rose's apartment. Johnny and Rose advise Ken to leave immediately, with Johnny giving Ken Gilda's address, saying she will help him. Tux and Solly find Rose's house but are met with cops who shoot Solly and injure Tux, but he manages to get into the apartment and strangle Rose and shoot Johnny, as police arrive and shoot Tux as well.

Ken leaves a phone message for Adams saying he is at Gilda's house and runs to Gilda's apartment and tries to explain everything including O'Brien's treachery, but Gilda turns on him with her gun, accusing him of being Fay's killer. Motley informs O'Brien that his henchmen and Johnny have been killed and O'Brien proceeds to Gilda's apartment to lie again about Johnny. Inspector Adams arrives at the apartment too and at this point it is revealed by him that the real killer is Gilda Dorman, and he has obtained enough evidence to jail her. Gilda was already married to Yarde 13 months back and she divorced him, but Yarde and Fay Carson knew about it and were blackmailing her with revealing this to O'Brien. Hence she ransacked Yarde's apartment and destroyed the divorce papers, entered Fay's apartment and killed her, stabbed Yarde and hid the body in the refrigerator when he visited her. It is then seen that Sweeting has also been murdered by Gilda when he found Yarde's body in her refrigerator. O'Brien is shocked but still wants Adams to toe the line, telling him to leave Gilda and implicate Ken in the murders, to which Adams refuses. O'Brien threatens the duo at gunpoint saying he will kill them and make things look different, but Adams shoots him dead when Sweeting's strutting dog distracts O'Brien. A shocked and desperate Gilda jumps off her apartment floor and dies. Adams then tells Ken to just run back home as though nothing ever happened, because now he won't be implicated at all, with all the evidence at hand.

The book ends with Lieutenant Harry Adams promoted as Captain of police, and a now courageous and confident Ken Holland, much to Parker's surprise, picking Ann from the railway station. As they arrive home, they find Raphael Sweeting's Pekinese dog at their doorstep.

It was a day of Derby, ie, there was a scheduled football (soccer) match between two big clubs of West Bengal, East Bengal and Mohan Bagan. The four close friends, Shibu, Gaur, Shishir and Sudhir, the author, who were boarders of the shared apartment at no. 72 Banamali Naskar Lane, were getting prepared to leave for the football stadium, keeping a keen watch on the time. Sudhir gave his clock to Gaur and said, “Keep it with yourself. You won’t need asking the time repeatedly then.” Here entered GhanaDa, with a warning that clocks should not be accepted without a proper check. It could be disastrous. Getting inquisitive Shibu mentioned that GhanaDa was never seen having a clock. GhanaDa replied, “No, I do not have a clock, but once I received some.” “Received? How many, GhanaDa?” “As far as I remember”, GhanaDa replied indifferently, “Two lakh fifty three thousand three hundred and one only.”

GhanaDa reminded of a massive Tsunami and cyclone occurred in the South Pacific Ocean on 17th September, 1937. GhanaDa's story preceded the event by two months. At that time he was visiting an area covering from Hawaii to Fiji through Samoa, carrying out an import-export business, which was a cover hiding his actual identity. All of a sudden he received two telegrams from Neville and Frank on the same day, requesting him to undertake a secret service mission and to meet the sender at the earliest. They were understood to be Neville Chamberlain, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, and Franklin Roosevelt, President of the United States. “Were they your friends, GhanaDa?”, asked Shibu.

The author, Premendra Mitra, addressed the issue of international terrorism in this story. Some agencies in Asia distributed cheap clock attached with explosives with timer which were distributed throughout Europe and the United States, most of which were programmed to explode at a particular time and date destroying major infrastructure of these countries. With timely intervention of GhanaDa a major impending world disaster was averted. However, the crucial Eastbengal club versus Mohanbagan club football match was eventually missed by all.

In 1955, 25-year-old Chang (“Chuck”) Ahn arrives at The University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee from Korea after the Korean War ends. He meets 28-year-old Katherine Monroe, who lives year-round in her family’s summer home in Sewanee. Chuck and Katherine become friends.

Katherine is in an ill-defined relationship with Charles Addison, an English professor at the college and her father’s former roommate. Katherine and Charles began sleeping together when Katherine was only fourteen, and the discovery of their relationship led to Katherine’s mother refusing to speak to her anymore, a resolve she keeps up throughout Katherine’s adulthood.

During his time in college, Chuck remembers his experience during the Korean War, where he worked as a translator for the American forces.

Charles unexpectedly proposes to Katherine, who accepts. When he hears news of their engagement, Chuck leaves Sewanee for Chicago to take a summer job in a book bindery that the dean of The University of the South arranges for him. After being repeatedly and falsely accused of stealing money, he steals $100 and boards a train to New Orleans, where Katherine is staying with her dying mother in her childhood home.

Katherine breaks up with Charles and goes with Chuck and her mother to a house on the Gulf Coast. Chuck returns to Sewanee and promises to wait for Katherine while she cares for her mother. Chuck is expelled from school for his theft, but given a job at the school and the chance to work off his debt.

Fourteen-year-old Richard Shakespeare runs away when he is apprenticed to a brutal, ill-tempered carpenter. He heads to London, where his brother William is a successful actor and playwright. William grudgingly pays for his training as an actor. In 1595, Richard is a 21-year-old poorly paid actor in the Lord Chamberlain's Men, a playing company in which his brother is a Sharer (part-owner).

A larger, rival theatre is being built at the instigation of the Earl of Lechlade, so Richard goes there to check out his prospects of switching companies. However, deValle, the Earl's manager, is only interested in giving him a position if he will steal his brother's new plays, ''A Midsummer Night's Dream'' and ''Romeo and Juliet''. Richard, despite William's poor treatment of him, turns him down.

Richard is tired of playing only women. (Women were not allowed to act in the English Renaissance theatre, so female roles were generally given to boys and young men.) William finally gives him a man's role, Francis Flute, but Richard becomes angry when he realises that Flute is a man who plays a woman in ''Pyramus and Thisbe'', the play-within-the play of ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''. As he learns more about the role, however, he sees that it is a good part after all.

''A Midsummer Night's Dream'' is to be first performed at the wedding of a granddaughter of Lord Hunsdon, the Lord Chamberlain, patron of the Lord Chamberlain's Men and Queen Elizabeth's cousin. When the only complete copies of both plays are stolen, William flies into a rage and strikes his brother in the face, believing Richard to be the thief, as he knows that Richard saw deValle. However, Richard has an alibi of sorts. Then suspicion falls on 16-year-old actor Simon Willoughby, who has been forgetting his lines and resents being passed over for the role of Juliet. This suspicion is confirmed when Simon panics and runs away.

Richard offers to retrieve the copies if William will give him the role of Romeo. He guesses correctly that Simon has taken the copies to the nearby establishment where both of them were trained (and abused). He beats Simon and gets them back. As a reward, William gives Richard the part of Mercutio in ''Romeo and Juliet''.

As the troupe practices at Blackfriars, one of Hunsdon's mansions, Richard falls in love with Sylvia, one of Lady Hendon's maids.

Despite various obstacles, including Puritan Pursuivants in the government who seek to shut down all theatres as dens of iniquity, the play is a rousing success. The wedding guests, including the Queen herself, are enthralled.

When a spaceship flies through his window and lands on his school work, Rod and his cousin Elspeth meet a group of extraterrestrial lawmen known as the Galactic Patrol. The film follows Rod and Elspeth, and their adventures.

A DEA SWAT team, lead by elite DEA agent James Baker (Michael Jai White), assault on a Mexican cartel's drug lab. The bad guys are taken out in the ensuing gun fight, but Baker inadvertently kills three hostages. As a result of PTSD-induced hallucinations and nightmares, caused by the killing of the innocent, Baker gets sent home to recover.

At this time, his family makes an unexpected discovery in their house - a stash of money worth $3 million. Baker just happens to live, with his wife Lisa (Aris Mejía) and their two teenage daughters, in the house where career criminal Johnny (Mickey Rourke) stashed his loot. The Baker family soon faces the danger and threat of freshly sprung Johnny, who quickly reunites with his old crew to retake the $3 million of stolen money he hid before his arrest. Johnny is über-badass, just before his release, he "dealt" with three inmates who tried to skank him right before he was freed.

Eventually, James and Lisa head off for a quiet weekend together, leaving their two daughters home alone. The girls promptly organize a house party. It is during this party that Johnny's goons stage a home invasion.

Johnny and his henchmen will do whatever it takes to retrieve the money, including kidnap Baker's daughters. Stakes are high in this head-to-head battle as Baker stops at nothing to protect his family against the money-hungry criminals. There are many confrontations, but none of them between Baker and Johnny, until the final minutes.

One of the highlights is a high schooler getting shot while taking a leak and peeing all over his killer.

In 2022, Akihiko Kayaba creates a virtual reality massively multiplayer online role-playing game (VRMMORPG) named ''Sword Art Online'' (''SAO''). As depicted in the first volume of the ''Sword Art Online: Progressive'' light novel series, the NerveGear is a 2nd generation FullDive device developed by a company named Argus, with Kayaba as its creator. It has a single interface that covers the player's entire head. It controls the player's consciousness by redirecting the brain's signals to the NerveGear, such that they can experience and control their in-game characters with their minds without any physical movement. It has its own battery source, as well as a high-frequency electromagnetic microwave transmitter. It is later revealed that attempting to remove the NerveGear will cause it to destroy your brain using powerful microwaves.

On November 6, 2022, 10,000 players log into ''SAO'' for the first time, only to discover that they are unable to log out of the game. Kayaba reveals himself to tell the players that they must beat all 100 floors of Aincrad, the enormous steel castle that is the setting of ''SAO'' if they want to escape the game. Only then would they be able to log out. Dying inside of the game or having their NerveGear forcibly removed from their head will cause them to have their brains destroyed by the NerveGear, thus killing them in real life as well.

Asuna, who has logged into the game with her friend Mito, initially struggles to cope with her new reality of being trapped inside the game. Asuna's venture eventually leads to her encounter with Kirito, one of 1,000 beta testers for ''SAO''. He has the advantage of knowing important details about the game and the bosses on its floors. He isolates himself from other players and plays the game alone, bearing the label of "beater", a portmanteau of "beta tester" and "cheater". As the story progresses, more is revealed about the players and their struggle with being trapped inside of the game.

1828 in the German port city of Bremen: Young Cato Böhmer arrives to take up her new position as a city clerk, assisting investigating judge Senator Droste at the criminal court. She strives to become an attorney – at a time when women aren't even admitted to universities. As the duo investigates an alleged poison attack reported by master miller Steitz, they encounter Gesche Gottfried, a suave and attractive widow known for her philanthropic attitude. Gottfried also appears to be in danger. However she soon turns out to be a prime suspect in a series of killings, the victims of which include her parents, her three husbands, her children and her twin brother, as well as friends and neighbors. While searching for evidence, Droste comes under increasing pressure from Bremen's bourgeoisie, especially Captain Ehlers who demands the senator's support for his steam shipping company.

While having his crime-fighting injuries tended to by Alfred, Batman recalls the history of all his major physical scars left by his foes, including the Joker. He leaves to find the Clown Prince of Crime when he learns he has killed the last remaining members of the Moxon crime family. Barbara Gordon learns about comedian Kelani Apaka also being killed by the Joker and likewise suits up as Batgirl to go after him. Red Hood (Jason Todd) resumes his pursuit of the Joker as well. Batman concludes that the Joker used the murders as a diversion, his real plan was stealing a truck full of his Joker-turning chemicals.

The Joker driving the stolen truck, '''''The Clown''''', meets with '''''The Comedian''''' and '''''The Criminal''''' to discuss their plan to set up chemical vats and find candidates in order to create a fourth new Joker. Batman, Batgirl, and Red Hood's investigations lead them to an aquarium where they encounter The Clown, who Batman subdues and leaves for Batgirl and Red Hood to guard while he organizes a transport to Arkham Asylum. Jason kills The Clown after being provoked by him, enraging Barbara.

Batgirl tells Batman about Jason's actions. She wants Bruce to stop him, but he tells her there is nothing they can do about it: if Jason confesses to the murder, Batgirl would be arrested as an accomplice and unmasked, as she was there during the murder. They go to Blackgate Penitentiary: at the crime scene of the murder of Judge Walls, another of the Joker's victims, Batman found the fingerprints of one particular criminal: his parents' killer Joe Chill. They learn the incarcerated Chill has terminal cancer.

Red Hood searches for the Joker at an abandoned sports club. Inside, he finds dozens of bodies bathed in a Joker-turning chemicals-filled pool. Jason is captured by the Jokers, who tell him they are searching for someone to turn into a better version of themselves to antagonize Batman. All the victims they killed were tests for their final product, but they were not good enough. The Jokers torture and traumatize Jason and leave him for Barbara and Bruce to find. Jason snaps at Batman, blaming him for all the pain in his life. Barbara takes Jason to her apartment, where they emotionally confide with one another about their similar tragedies. They kiss, but Barbara breaks the moment. The Comedian kidnaps Joe Chill and records his confession about why he murdered the Waynes.

Bruce analyzes the Jokers and the fact that each one played a role in his career. The Criminal reminds him of their earliest encounters, while The Clown brings up memories of cartoonish, macabre showmanship ("a lethal campiness, like a children's show host"). The Comedian, with "a sadistic streak stronger than the others", links him to the Joker he has most recently faced. Batman believes that one of these is the original and created the other two. After learning of Joe Chill's kidnapping, Batman finds unsent apology letters to Bruce Wayne that the guilt-ridden Chill wrote long before he got sick.

Batman, Batgirl, and Red Hood head to the condemned Monarch Theater as inside the letters Batman finds a ticket for ''The Mark of Zorro'', left by the Joker as an invitation. As they enter, a video about the confession of why Chill murdered the Waynes is projected on the screen. As both Barbara and Jason are occupied with several Jokerized goons, Batman faces The Criminal alone, who intends to turn Chill into the new Joker because of his role in the Dark Knight's creation. Batman saves Chill, who has learned his secret identity and thinks he would deserve it he chose to take his life, but Batman forgives him. The Criminal is then suddenly shot in the head by The Comedian.

Batman escorts the arrested Comedian (the real Joker) to Arkham Asylum. Jason tells Barbara that he would like to be more than friends with her, but she rejects him as she cannot get past the blood on Jason's hands. The Joker reveals that he is aware of Batman, Batgirl, and Red Hood's secret identities, and claims he does not want what the other two desired. The Clown just wanted to see people suffer which the Joker finds mundane, and The Criminal was delusional since the idea of creating a Joker with an identity is pointless; in his own view, the Joker is the personification of mystery and chaos. The Joker reveals he convinced the other two that Joe Chill would be the perfect Joker, because he understood he would never be able to commit a crime more tragic than what Chill did to Bruce, and he alone wants to be Bruce's greatest pain until the day they die together, which he accomplished when he forgave Chill.

Jason writes a letter for Barbara and tapes it to her apartment's front door. Inside the letter, he confesses his love for her and is ready to abandon the Red Hood identity for good, if it means having a chance to be with her. Barbara never reads the letter, as it falls from the door and is collected by a janitor. Since Jason notes in the letter that he also gives Barbara a chance to pretend this never happened, he is left unaware of this. In the aftermath, Bruce comforts Chill at his deathbed. Bruce reveals to Alfred that he's known the Joker's true name all along, discovering it one week after their first encounter. It is also revealed that the Joker's pregnant wife Jeannie was not actually killed, but taken to Alaska, where she now lives with her son as part of a witness protection program. Bruce explains that the Joker's name must never be known, because if the world ever found out that he had a family, it would be national news and they would be targeted, either by the Joker himself or by someone seeking vengeance against the criminal.

In a region of Japan devastated and quarantined years ago following an accident in which highly volatile nuclear waste was spilled after a crash between the waste transport and a prison bus, a settlement called Samurai Town is ruled by an unscrupulous Governor who has blended elements of Japanese society (both modern-day and pre-modern) and the old American West together at his whim, and is keeping a harem of adopted "granddaughters" as his sex slaves. The outside is a wasteland known as the Ghostland, inhabited by half-crazed outcasts and victims of the irradiated environment. Just before the catastrophe, Hero, a criminal, was imprisoned in the aftermath of a botched bank robbery where his partner Psycho brutally murdered several innocent bystanders. It is later revealed that Psycho was in the prison transport which collided with the waste truck and thus set off the disaster.

One night, Bernice, one of the "granddaughters", flees from the Governor's house with her friends Stella and Nanci, only to get stranded in the Ghostland. The Governor has Hero released to retrieve Bernice from the Ghostland, and outfits him with a bodysuit which is set to detonate explosive charges in case he mistreats Bernice in any way, the suit itself is tampered with, or Bernice has not been rescued within five days. When departing, Hero undertakes a parting gesture of defiance against the Governor which impresses Yasujiro, the Governor's samurai bodyguard whose sister is one of the Governor's "granddaughters".

Upon entering the Ghostland, Hero is intercepted by a band of mutated men, suffers an accident and is taken by the outcasts to their cult-like enclave and their leader, Enoch. He finds Bernice among them, but she is half-catatonic from trauma. As he prepares to transport her back, Hero accidentally triggers one of his suit's explosives, which destroys one of his testicles and renders him unconscious. In a nightmare flashback, Hero recognizes Bernice as a young girl whose mother was killed while he tried to escape the police after the bank robbery and who was subsequently taken in by the Governor. Attacked by the mutants from earlier, Hero is rendered unconscious when an explosive on his arm is set off, just before the assailants vanish. However, the detonation shakes Bernice from her catatonia.

Meanwhile, Stella returns from the Ghostland and is captured by the Governor's men, who has Yasujiro execute her, which finally turns him against the Governor. Having had a revelation during his unconsciousness about his accidental role in the cataclysm, Hero stirs the Ghostlanders into a revolt against the Governor, aided by Psycho and the mutants, his fellow convicts from the fateful accident. Hero and Bernice return to Samurai Town, but when the Governor refuses to unlock the suit and Hero pretends to take Bernice hostage, Bernice's friend Susie, traumatized from the Governor's treatment of her, massacres several of his bodyguards with a minigun. Hero, Bernice, and Yasujiro overcome the remainder, then Hero faces off against and kills Yasujiro while Bernice shoots the Governor. With the oppressor dead and the outcasts liberated, Hero, Bernice, and Susie watch as Samurai Town begins to stir with new, freer life.

While lost in the Black Forest, siblings Hansel and Gretl are ambushed by Zhore, a witch who tries to kidnap Gretl and murder Hansel. Zhore's spell bounces off of the magic-resistant Hansel and immolates her, so she switches bodies with Gretl before entombing her and setting out to become the Witch Queen. Zhore has her warlock henchman, Abyss, and her gargoyle familiar abduct young witches, who Zhore magically binds to herself, turning the girls into near-mindless members of Zhore's Coven of the Crescent Moon. One of the witches, Lara, is more willful than the others, breaking the binding spell and escaping Zhore. A powerless and amnesiac Lara is found by Hansel, who had become a witch hunter to avenge Gretl. Lara uses her retained knowledge of the occult to construct powerful anti-witch armaments for Hansel.

Hansel and Lara interrogate and kill a witch, learning from her that the Witch Queen's next target is a girl named Ehren. Abyss kills Ehren's father and kidnaps her, but before he can bind her to Zhore, she is rescued by Hansel. Lara convinces Hansel that they can train Ehren to help them fight the Witch Queen. It is revealed that Zhore wants Ehren because the girl's raw magical power makes her a suitable replacement for Gretl, whose body is no longer able to sustain Zhore. Abyss tries to make up for his failure to capture Ehren by bringing Zhore another potential vessel, who an agitated Zhore disintegrates before torturing Abyss.

Zhore's gargoyle captures Hansel and brings him to Zhore. Zhore offers Hansel a restored Gretl in exchange for Ehren, and when Hansel rebuffs her, orders that he be burned by Abyss. Fearing for his life and wanting to overthrow Zhore, Abyss instead frees Hansel and tells him where to find Gretl after informing him that destroying Zhore's original body will restore Gretl and kill Zhore. Hansel and Ehren evade the gargoyle and unearth Gretl. Hansel stabs Gretl in an attempt to kill Zhore's body, but all this does is cause another body swap between Gretl and Zhore. Zhore jumps from her original body to Ehren, but before she can take full control of Ehren's body, Ehren is mercy killed by Hansel, who then slays the gargoyle with help from Gretl. Lara rejects Abyss's declaration of love and offer of partnership and kills him, thus disbanding the Coven of the Crescent Moon.

Zhore, having become trapped in her mangled original body, is eventually tracked down and strung up by Hansel, Gretl, and Lara. As Lara prepares to kill Zhore, she is stopped by Gretl, who pities Zhore. Zhore breaks free and, mocking Gretl for her mercy, tries to attack her, only to be killed by Hansel.

Nine year old Arnold and his older brother Eugie set out to pick peas and potentially shoot ducks. While climbing through a fence near a lake, Arnold's gun becomes snarled and accidentally goes off. The bullet hits Eugie and kills him almost instantly. In a state of shock, Arnold decides to continue picking peas for the next hour before returning home to his parents and sister.

Upon arriving home, he tells them that Eugie is dead. An undertaker shortly arrives after Arnold's father discovers Eugie's body by the lake. Arnold overhears them while hiding in the barn. Later in the day, Arnold's father and his Uncle Andy take him into the sheriff's office in town where he is questioned. The sheriff tells Arnold's father that the boy might be stupid but more than likely has no feelings. Andy agrees with the sheriff telling him that Arnold never really cared for his brother.

When they arrive home the family have supper and nobody speaks. Soon after, the family are visited by neighbors. Despite feeling uncomfortable, Arnold remains in the room while his neighbors visit and listens to them tell stories about Eugie.

Before leaving the house, his mother asks him what he wanted during the night, to which he replies, “I didn’t want nothing.” He then leaves the house frightened by his own words.

In 1957 London, Mrs. Ada Harris, a widowed cleaning lady, becomes obsessed with a ''haute couture'' Dior dress of one of her clients; it inspires her to buy her own Dior dress. After suddenly receiving a war-widow's pension, she embarks on an adventure to Paris to do so. She stumbles into a showing of Dior's 10th anniversary collection and is befriended by André, the Dior accountant, and Natasha, a Dior model. However, the Dior director, Claudine, resents Ada's intrusion into the exclusive world of ''haute couture''.

Dior has fallen on hard financial times and because Ada is willing to pay in cash, they reluctantly agree to make a dress for her. While she remains in Paris for fittings, she stays with André and encourages him to express his affection for Natasha who shares his interest in existential philosophy.

When Claudine is forced to fire several of Dior's workers due to financial constraints, Ada organises a strike and forces Claudine and Christian Dior to listen to André's ideas to modernise the business and make it profitable.

Ada returns to London with her dress. She loans it to one of her clients, Pamela, a struggling actress. Pamela wears it to an event where it catches fire and is ruined.

After finishing their contract with the Creole Republic, the Sicario Mercenary Corps is hired by the Cascadian Republic in the midst of their war of independence against the Pacific Federation. The Federation forces gain the upper hand in the early stages of the war, to the point of capturing the Cascadian capital city of Presidia.

However, Hitman is able to slowly turn the tide of the war in Cascadia's favor, as the Federation begins losing support due to Federal war crimes and their inability to control Cascadia. Hitman Team becomes a rallying point for Cascadian forces because of their immense successes in repelling Federation forces. The air war culminates in a massive aerial furball between Federation and Cascadian forces over the Bering Strait. Hitman clashes with the Federation's elite 'Crimson Team', a fighter squadron of elite peacekeeper pilots. Crimson Team is forced to retreat after Hitman inflicts too many losses, leaving Crimson Team's leader, "Crimson 1", enraged and vowing revenge against Monarch.

During a subsequent mission to liberate Prospero, Cascadia's main economic hub, the Federation bombards the city with cordium-enriched cruise missiles when Cascadian victory seems imminent. The warheads activate Prospero's rich cordium deposits, causing a massive underground volcanic chain reaction. This destabilizes the Ring of Fire and ravages most of the Pacific Rim in the resulting tectonic event. Having lost communications with allied forces in the chaos, Hitman withdraws but are intercepted by bounty hunters, who reveal that Hitman's true identities have been leaked to the public. Hitman shoots down the bounty hunters and re-establishes communications with Sicario, planning to leave Cascadia behind, but their Cascadian liaison officer offers them an undisclosed "deal" in exchange for their continued support. Sicario accepts the deal and continues to fight.

Sicario assists the Cascadians with eliminating Federal resistance and re-stabilizing the country, and Hitman defeats Crimson Team in a dogfight above a devastated Prospero. During the last major battle of the war to liberate Presidia, both sides of the conflict agree to a ceasefire as Cascadia emerges victorious. However, Crimson 1 suddenly arrives in a hijacked prototype super-fighter, the 'Project Wingman'. Overcome with madness from the war and the loss of his squadron, he detonates several cordium-enriched warheads, devastating the city and incapacitating Hitman Team except for Monarch, whom he challenges to a duel. Crimson 1 is ultimately shot down by Monarch, ending the war as the surviving Federation and Cascadian forces spectate. Hitman, having ejected from their planes, are rescued by Sicario's SAR unit, and the remaining Federation forces fear their summary execution on suspicion of breaking the ceasefire.

After the war, Cascadia honors their "deal" with Sicario. The whereabouts of Hitman Team, including Monarch, are unknown; the Federation declares them wanted criminals for their part in the war, though it is implied that they have assumed new identities as part of the deal. Having suffered irreplaceably high casualties and the immense loss of reputation from using cordium WMDs, the Federation faces multiple insurgent movements from other member states, backed by the now-independent Cascadia (which became a haven for mercenaries) among other foreign powers.

GhanaDa was almost defeated. Almost, yes, because he had all capabilities to come out of the most difficult situations winning every time. All started on a Saturday night at no. 72, Bamamali Nasjar lane, when boarders went to sleep a little late after partying. At about midnight there was heard an inhuman blood chilling cry coming out of the third floor attic room of GhanaDa, followed by he himself recklessly running down the stairs. The worried boarders rushed out and asked eagerly, "What happened, GhanaDa?"
Upon careful inspection the cause of all hue and cry was found. It was an insect!! When everyone started rolling over with laughter, GhanaDa remained indifferent and calm. Then he asked gravely, "Did you ever have to run after an insect for eight thousand miles? Did you ever have to storm your brain thinking what you would do with three thousand tons of dead insect? Did you ever happen to carry out a desperate search for an insect in the deadliest forests of Africa with a paper and a closed phial?” "Was it this insect, GhanaDa?” “No, that was Schistocerca gregaria." GhanaDa continued, "It was the 22nd December of 1931. The Riga of Latvia was covered under heavy snow, when I was returning from my morning walk…" and the story continues. At the end it was revealed how GhanaDa reached the basin of the river Bahr al-Arab in Sudan, Africa, in the land of Dinkas, in search of the mad scientist Jacob Rothstein. GhanaDa used a contagious biological agent to eradicate the swarm of deadly African desert locust weighing three thousand tons, and yet it was another instance he saved the mankind from an impending disaster.”

In a dystopian 2050, fighter pilot Adam Reed steals a time jet to escape to 2018 to save his wife, Laura Shane. In the process, he gets injured and crash-lands in 2022. The story then shifts to 12-year-old Adam in 2022, whose father Louis died a year previously. He is bullied at school, gets suspended for fighting in school, and is distant from his mother Ellie. When he is home alone one night, he finds the injured future Adam. The younger Adam refuses to trust the stranger, but future Adam inadvertently mentions the names of both the younger Adam and his dog, Hawking. The younger Adam soon realizes that the stranger in front of him is his future self.

Due to a safety feature preventing him from flying because of his injuries, Adam must bring along the younger Adam and use his DNA to enter his jet. They both are soon attacked by Maya Sorian, the leader of the dystopian world, and her assistant Christos, but are saved by Laura, who had faked her death and stayed off-grid in an unknown location. After surviving the attack and comparing notes, Laura and the Adams realize that after the invention of time travel by Louis Reed and his subsequent death, Sorian had monopolized the discovery. During her visit to 2018, Laura learned Sorian frequently came and advised her past self in order to secure her future wealth and power. To protect her secret, Sorian ordered Laura's death. Although Laura survived the assassination attempt, destruction of her time jet left her stranded in the past. The sudden arrival of Sorian's goons interrupts the reunion, and Laura fights off the attack long enough for the two Adams to escape to 2018.

In 2018, the Adams meet Louis Reed in an attempt to enlist his help, but their father refuses any assistance out of concern for the effect on the time stream. That night, Sorian meets and warns her past self about Adam. Meanwhile, the Adams share their common feelings about their father in a motel. The next day, they both set off to destroy the time travel machine. On arrival at Sorian Technologies, they are attacked by Sorian's soldiers, but are unexpectedly saved by Louis, who has changed his mind and agrees to guide them. Louis reveals that destroying the machine will not destroy time travel as long as Sorian has his algorithm with all the math and constraints to control the process. Meanwhile, 2050 Sorian captures the younger Adam.

Although Louis and 2050 Adam remove a memory unit with the algorithm, both Sorians arrive and threaten 2022 Adam as leverage to coerce Louis into surrendering the algorithm. 2022 Adam escapes from Sorian by pushing her gun away, however, an errant bullet damages the seal restraining the electromagnetic field, causing it to grow to limitless values. The Reeds try as much as they can to stop them, but the older Sorian threatens to kill Louis. Adam warns that her bullets are armor-piercing, but Louis remains adamant. Seeing no other way, Sorian shoots at Louis, but the bullet deviates and hits 2018 Sorian instead, killing her and wiping the older Sorian out of existence.

The Reeds barely manage to escape the facility's implosion and reach home, where they reconcile by playing a game of catch before the Adams return to their respective times. In 2022, the younger Adam lives in a new timeline where his suspensions never happened, has let go of his anger, and gives his mother a hug via an "echo". Sometime in the future, an older and much happier Adam meets Laura during a flight training lecture where she realizes she has entered the wrong building on the campus. After Adam offers to walk her to her building, stating that he has got time, they depart together.

In Bruce Wayne's younger years, while training himself to become a vigilante crime-fighter, he travels to Nanda Parbat, a secret monastery in the Hindu Kush Himalayan region, where he meets its caretaker, O-Sensei, and five other students training in the martial arts; Shiva, Richard Dragon, Jade, Ben Turner and Rip Jagger. O-Sensei eventually entrusts Shiva with Soul Breaker, a Muramasa sword in his possession, but otherwise remains secretive about a certain door at the monastery's outer perimeter. One night, Rip penetrates the forbidden door and kills Jade with Soul Breaker, which is the key to a mystical gate O-Sensei was guarding. This gate opens to the home dimension of the serpent god Nāga; four of his servants emerge and devour Rip before turning on O-Sensei and his students. Bruce and the others kill the demons, but to close the gate, O-Sensei sacrifices himself by entering Nāga's realm. The chamber then collapses, leaving only the gate intact.

Years later, Richard discovers that millionaire Jeffrey Burr, leader of a dangerous snake cult named Kobra, has gained possession of the gate. Richard travels to Gotham City to ask Bruce for help, but they are attacked by a gang hired by Burr's chief killer Schlangenfaust. During this fight, Richard learns that Bruce is Batman and that Schlangenfaust is looking for Soul Breaker. They head for Gotham Chinatown to inform Shiva, the resident crime lord, but the cultists attack them there and Schlangenfaust uses the distraction to steal the sword. Needing assistance, the three recruit Ben, and together they track the cult to a heavily fortified island where the cult has taken the gate and are preparing to open it by sacrificing several kidnapped children to Soul Breaker. They also learn from Ben that years ago he had tracked Kobra after discovering that Rip was one of their members and that he learned that due to an obscure prophecy, Burr means to become Nāga's earthly avatar.

Arriving by plane, Batman, Richard, Shiva and Ben parachute down and penetrate Kobra's defenses through a set of catacombs. However, they encounter Schlangenfaust, who is revealed as one of Nāga's demonic servants. While Batman and Ben battle Schlangenfaust, Richard and Shiva prevent the sacrifice of the children and engage the cult members. Vanquishing their opponents, they corner Burr at the gate, but Burr turns Soul Breaker against himself, opening the doorway. Nāga emerges, having possessed O-Sensei's body, and swiftly overwhelms the companions. Nāga reveals that Richard is his actual destined host and tries to seduce him with promises of power, but Richard refuses and, with some help from Batman, uses Soul Breaker to banish him by stabbing O-Sensei.

Freed from Nāga's domination, O-Sensei bids his students farewell before dying in their arms. In order to close the gate forever, Batman enters Nāga's dimension wielding Soul Breaker, but Richard, Shiva and Ben willingly follow him. Once the gate has closed, the four prepare for battle against Nāga and his demon horde.

Santa Claus tasks Billy (Billy Eichner), his trusted elf-secretary, to raise everyone's spirits and make Christmas merry again. He calls Santa's friend Mariah Carey for help. Carey, however, is setting up Christmas in her New York City apartment with her two kids, Roc and Roe along with Little Mimi (Mykal-Michelle Harris). Little Mimi is not as enthusiastic as the other two about Christmas. Carey receives a call from Billy, who desperately pleads for her help. Carey then reveals a sleigh behind her fireplace and flies off to help Billy ("Sleigh Ride" / "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing").

Arriving at the North Pole, Billy informs Carey that holiday cheer levels are at the lowest they have ever seen in which Carey responds that they should put on a festive Christmas concert to cheer up the world. At first Billy is skeptical that they don't have enough time, but Carey informs him of some of her achievements, stating that she would be able to handle a show. As they work together to come up with a setlist ("When Christmas Comes"), Billy informs Carey that they do not have much time. Carey rebukes the idea of schedules when Woodstock flies in. In the ''Peanuts'' segment, Linus and Charlie Brown are racking their brains trying to find out what they are missing for Christmas, only to figure out it is spending time with friends and family ("Christmas Time Is Here").

After Carey is settled into her cabin to take a rest before the concert, she sneaks off the toy factory to watch the elves make toys, sending Billy into a state of panic. She is joined by Ariana Grande, Jennifer Hudson, Snoop Dogg and Jermaine Dupri ("Oh Santa!" / "Here Comes Santa Claus (Right Down Santa Claus Lane) / House Top Celebration"). As the clock strikes six, the elves hurry out to watch a ballet performance by a Sugar Plum Fairy (Misty Copeland). Carey, however, goes out into the forest and gets lost with Billy, who went looking for her ("Christmas Time Is in the Air Again"). After taking a wrong shortcut, the two follow a star and they find their way out ("O Holy Night").

Carey wakes up in her apartment back in New York, telling Little Mimi and her kids that she was dreaming, only for Billy to reveal himself and start the Christmas concert ("Joy to the World"). Halfway through the concert, Billy accidentally cuts the power, causing Carey to sing a different song, under candlelight ("Silent Night"). After the song, Carey gives a heartwarming speech about celebrating love and light after a rough year. Christmas is saved, Carey performs an encore and Little Mimi regains her love for Christmas ("All I Want For Christmas Is You").

Joseph Mersault (Sawa), his wife Anne (Sullivan) and his daughter Renee (Howell) live in the remote Canadian wilderness, making a meager profit as fur trappers. Joseph trains the eager Renee how to bait and trap various animals, while Anne stays home and takes care of the cabin, washing clothes and fetching water.

Their tranquility is threatened when a dangerous wolf begins to eat trapped animals along their fur line. Despite Anne’s protests, Joseph leaves the cabin in order to track the wolf and eliminate the threat.

After a long day in the wilderness tracking the wolf with Renee, Joseph finds fresh tracks and sends his daughter back home out of concern for her safety. However, Joseph continues to hunt the wolf alone. He eventually stumbles upon a group of dead young women - brutally slaughtered, bared naked and arranged in a ritualistic circle.

Joseph returns home, but does not tell his family what he saw, instead claiming that he saw a wolf but failed to shoot it. The next day, Joseph tells Anne that he is going to hunt the wolf; instead, he begins tracking the killer of the young women.

Anne begins to worry about Joseph when he does not return home after a day, and she reports the dangerous wolf to the local police officers Barthes (Gabriel Daniels) and Lucy (Lauren Cochrane). They are dismissive, however, claiming that the wolf is merely doing what nature intended, in the wild, where city laws do not apply. Furthermore, the land on which Joseph’s cabin is situated is federal land, and reporting the wolf would therefore trigger a federal investigation. Worried about losing their home, Anne leaves the station.

Running low on food, Anne shoots a baby deer, much to Renee’s distress. Renee teaches Anne how to properly skin an animal; she had never learned how because Joseph was always around to do it.

One night, Renee hears cries of pain from the woods. After searching for the source, Anne finds a wounded stranger, Lou (Stahl). She brings him back to the cabin, whereupon he reveals that he is a wildlife photographer who was attacked by a wolf while taking photographs. Anne begins to nurse Lou back to health.

Meanwhile, police officer Barthes believes something strange to be going on with Anne and Renee, so he vows to go find them. On the way, however, he stumbles upon the same corpses as Joseph has previously. While trying to call Lucy for backup, Barthes's leg and arm are ensnared by bear traps that had been set by Joseph.

Anne goes looking for some food to eat, leaving Lou and Renee alone in the cabin. After killing a rabbit, Anne stumbles upon Joseph’s corpse, and realizes that Lou killed him. She rushes back to the cabin but is knocked unconscious by Lou.

After Anne wakes up, Lou attempts to strangle and rape her, while listening to music on an old walkman. However, Anne manages to grab an animal trap and closes it on Lou’s face. As he screams in pain, Anne goes to check on Renee, and finds that Lou has already killed her.

Unable to scream for help after losing lots of blood, Officer Barthes nevertheless manages to alert Lucy and other emergency workers of his location by firing his pistol into the air. By the time they arrive, though, Barthes has already died. Lucy and other police officers begin to examine the bodies of the young women.

Anne, meanwhile, has strung Lou up by his hands and prepares to skin him alive. She listens to loud music on his walkman, drowning out his screams, as she carefully flays his entire upper body, including his face.

The police officers are alerted to a fire that Lou started and they follow the smoke back to the cabin. Upon their arrival, Anne quietly exits the cabin, holding Lou’s face skin, which she tosses to the ground. She sits down on her front porch and turns off the walkman. The film goes silent as police officers surround Anne with their guns drawn.

With a map of potential supply sources that Maggie created, Aaron and Gabriel are on a supply run. On their way, the two slay walkers in a field, but are unsuccessful in their search and discuss how much they miss their daughters. Later, Gabriel falls into mud and destroys the map, but still wants to visit the final location, a water tower. Aaron, however, believes it's pointless and wants to return to Alexandria.

Later, the men find a seemingly abandoned warehouse. There, Aaron kills a wild boar that was about to attack him. They then cook and eat the animal, and also find a bottle of whiskey that they drink while playing cards. The next day, Gabriel wakes up and discovers that Aaron has disappeared before an armed man suddenly appears, revealing that he lives in the warehouse. The man tells Gabriel that he is angry at them for killing his pet boar and drinking his whiskey. Gabriel tries to convince him that they are good people, but he doesn't believe him. The man then retrieves Aaron and forces the two to play Russian roulette, and the two of them ask the man why he is forcing them to do this. He reluctantly explains that, several years beforehand, his brother stole his food and tried to kill him, forcing him to "handle the situation", presumably killing him. This betrayal from his own brother led the man to believe that all people are selfish and evil, and he attempts to prove it to them by offering them the option of pointing the gun at the other player instead of themselves each round, expecting that they will opt to kill the other to spare their own life. Instead, neither of them point the gun at the other; Aaron eventually manages to convince the man that not all people are bad, and the man reveals that his name is Mays. Gabriel takes advantage of Mays' lowered guard by smashing his head with the mace attachment on Aaron's prosthetic arm, killing him instantly, feeling that Mays is too dangerous to risk taking home with them.

Afterwards, Aaron and Gabriel discover a room upstairs stocked with supplies. They find Mays' brother in handcuffs, revealing that Mays had kept him alive as a prisoner for years, with the corpses of his wife and daughter at his feet. Gabriel frees the man, who grabs Gabriel's gun and commits suicide by shooting himself; before killing himself, Mays' brother reveals that he had been forced to play Russian roulette with his family, leading to their deaths. Aaron and Gabriel then gather the Mays' supplies and leave. The two later cross a field and spot the water tower. Aaron agrees to look for the final location; they head off towards the water tower.

While preparing to go hunting, Daryl is approached by Carol, who offers to accompany him, which he reluctantly agrees to. While the two of them cook some fish that Carol speared, she says that the recent loss of the Hilltop and attack on Alexandria have caused her to wonder if their luck is beginning to run out; Daryl disagrees. Dog unexpectedly runs off, and the two follow him to an old cabin. Carol proposes that they spend the night there, before realizing that the cabin has sentimental value to Daryl.

Daryl recounts the story to Carol through flashbacks. Five years ago, shortly after Rick's supposed death, Daryl wanders the woods alone trying to find any sign of him, dead or alive. Carol occasionally meets with him to give supplies. After one such meeting, Daryl is approached by a Belgian Malinois puppy, who leads him to a cabin. Upon entering the cabin, Daryl is taken hostage and interrogated by an unknown woman, but she soon lets him go when he explains that he doesn't want to hurt her. She refuses to tell Daryl her name; he asks what the dog's name is, and she says that she simply calls him "Dog". Over the next several months, the two periodically cross paths, with Daryl returning Dog when he runs away, and offering her a fish that he caught. She reveals her name, Leah, and the two begin to bond romantically. Daryl begins to stay at her cabin more often.

The pair bond through hunting, fishing, and watching a solar eclipse together. One night, Daryl catches her looking at a photo of her son, which she keeps under the floorboards, and she recounts the story of how she lost her family and the Army platoon she had been surviving with. Dog was born on the same day, and Leah kept him as a memento of the family she lost. Fed up with his obsession with the search for Rick, Leah urges him to choose between looking for Rick, going back to Alexandria, or staying with her. Daryl chooses to continue searching for Rick. After an unknown period of time, Daryl returns to the cabin hoping to make amends, but finds Leah missing, along with the pictures under the floorboards. He leaves several cans of food under the floorboards, along with a message saying that he wants to be with her and encouraging her to try to find him.

In the present, Carol and Daryl begin to argue about the events of Rick and Connie, with Daryl blaming himself for the former and Carol for the latter. Carol tries to calm him down, saying that she needs him as a friend, but Daryl tells her that he is tired of always having the same conversations and that he regrets having dissuaded her from leaving. He tells her that he won't stop her from running away anymore, as he has in the past. Through her tears, Carol tells him that she was right about their luck having run out.

Eugene (Josh McDermitt), Ezekiel (Khary Payton), Yumiko (Eleanor Matsuura), and Princess (Paola Lázaro) are surrounded by several armored soldiers. As she struggles against her captors, Princess watches as Yumiko is hit hard on the head by a soldier with a rifle; the group is separated from each other and imprisoned in boxcars. While in captivity, Princess is able to talk to Yumiko, realizing she is suffering from head trauma. Princess tries to break the wooden walls separating them, but gets a splinter in her finger, triggering her PTSD. To keep Yumiko awake, Princess tells her about her childhood traumas just before soldiers arrive and take Yumiko away.

The next day, Princess discovers an exit to Eugene's boxcar, but he dismisses her and tells her to return to her boxcar so they can appear worthy of the community's time by following their orders; Princess obeys. Later, a soldier summons her to come with him. Once she is checked for bite marks by an examining trooper (Erik Bello), Princess is brought into another room to be interrogated by another trooper (Jessejames Locorriere) about her group. However, Princess refuses to cooperate, aggressively demanding to see Yumiko; the soldier slaps her and knocks her to the ground. Princess later wakes up in her boxcar and sneaks out to see Eugene again, only to find that he is gone; she returns to her boxcar and panics. Suddenly, Ezekiel opens the hatch in the roof and jumps down; the two argue over what to do next.

Soon afterward, a soldier (Cameron Roberts) enters the boxcar with a tray of food, but is ambushed by Ezekiel; a fight ensues. Ezekiel is able to knock him unconscious and handcuffs the soldier. Princess begins to realize that she was hallucinating Ezekiel the entire time. She then escapes from her boxcar and is faced with another hallucination of Ezekiel, who tries to convince her to flee and leave the others behind; she refuses and returns to her boxcar. There, Princess frees the beaten soldier and answers his questions in exchange for seeing her friends; the soldier thanks her and knocks on the door. Immediately, someone slides the door open, revealing Eugene, Ezekiel, and Yumiko lined up outside with hoods on their heads, guarded by soldiers; a hood is thrown over Princess' head.

On the road, Daryl (Norman Reedus), Carol (Melissa McBride), and Dog are on their way back to Alexandria. Carol struggles to open her canteen, so Daryl gives her his pocketknife to loosen the cap. Daryl decides to stay out in the woods a little longer in an effort to find more supplies for the damaged community. The two eventually come to a fork in the road and separate; Dog decides to follow Carol, upsetting Daryl.

Afterward, Carol returns to Alexandria where the solar panels are still damaged. She approaches Jerry (Cooper Andrews) and asks him what she can do to help. Jerry doesn't have any jobs for her, but can tell something is bothering her. Carol leaves and decides to make food for everyone, but things don't go as planned: a rat is in her house that has Dog riled up. Meanwhile, in the woods, Daryl's motorcycle breaks down, forcing him to continue on foot. Unable to cook anything because of the solar panel wreckage, Carol leaves Alexandria to search for soup ingredients. She is surrounded by walkers in a field, but manages to dispatch them all. Elsewhere, Daryl finds a group of abandoned cars and finds parts he needs to fix his motorcycle, but is unable to make the repairs without his pocketknife. He then decides to walk his motorcycle back to Alexandria, but comes upon a group of walkers dressed in military outfits; he kills them and finds a knife to help with his repairs.

Now back at Alexandria, Carol fixes the solar panels and begins to cook her soup, but ends up chasing the rat through the kitchen before the solar panels fizzle out. She goes to bed with Dog, saying she misses Daryl and knows he'll be back soon, but she contemplates leaving. In the middle of the night, Carol and Dog hear the rat, leading Carol to have a breakdown and destroy part of the kitchen wall. The next morning, Carol cleans the kitchen and cooks her soup. Jerry arrives, who asks if she is doing okay; he admits he is worried about Ezekiel. As they share a hug, the rat exits the house and runs off, much to Carol's relief. Outside, Daryl returns on his repaired motorcycle and encounters Carol. Tired, Daryl declines Carol's offer for soup; the two again go their separate ways.

Diding (Maris Racal) applies to be a maid for a rich, social family where she met Mon (Kokoy de Santos).

The play begins with Clem and Luke, two white men, in the early morning sitting outside a store. They begin their conversation discussing their families and careers, but Clem more and more forcefully a belief that something isn't right. Eventually, Luke agrees.

Attention then shifts to John and Mary, a married couple, as they wake up to the sound of their crying baby. Irked that the baby's Black caretaker, Lula, has not silenced the baby or shown up to their house at all, John angrily commands Mary to care for the baby, which Mary refuses. They then attempt to call Lula, but all of the lines are extremely busy, with similar situations likely happening all over town.

Clem realizes, too, that he has not seen any of the town's Black residents so far that day, and argues that they have all gone away. While Luke is skeptical of Clem's certainty, the duo decide to look around for Black residents.

John and Mary, now up from bed and preparing for the day, argue over their still crying baby and each of their roles in their marriage. John leaves for work while lambasting Mary for failing to make him breakfast and silence the baby.

After a blackout, attention shifts to the mayor's office where the mayor, along with his assistant Jackson, comes to grips with the disappearance of all the Black residents of his town. He resolves to find all of the Black residents by all means necessary, vowing to “dig ‘em out of the ground” if need be.

In a more emotional scene, Mary reflects on her relationship with Lula, in which she cries over her perceived dependence on her. John consoles her.

In a meeting with town businessmen and representatives, the mayor learns that most functions of the town have come to a standstill as a result of the lack of Black laborers. Additional reports alert the mayor that all Black patients in the hospital are in unexplained comas and that the sheriff can not confirm whether Black inmates in the jail are present.

A television broadcast announcer interviews a series of townspeople on their thoughts regarding the situation in town. First, the announcer speaks with Mr. Council Clan, a parody of a Ku Klux Klan member, who blames the disappearance on the government, and while wanting the expulsion of Black residents, believes that it is not the right time to do such. Next, the announcer interviews Mrs. Handy Anna Aide, the Social Welfare Commissioner. Aide describes the stress that has been placed on white workers and her perceived laziness of Black workers. The announcer then interviews a religious official, Reverend Reb Pious, who accuses the Black residents of the town of immorally utilizing “voodoo” spells to disappear. Finally, the announcer speaks with the mayor, who projects confidence in his plan to find the town's Black residents. He claims that the other Southern towns are sending Black people to work in the town, that the President of the United States and the National Guard are providing support, and that the town is working with the NAACP in order to find the town's Black residents.

Jackson arrives, however, to inform the mayor that most of his claimed sources of aid have fallen through, that there have been multiple threats on his life, and that the city will promptly descend into anarchy in one hour. The mayor, increasingly desperate, becomes convinced that if he delivers a nationally broadcast speech addressed to his town's Black residents, they will certainly return.

The mayor gives his speech, in which he alternates between cheerful anecdotes about his relationship with Black caregivers to vowing punishment on the disappeared Black residents. He concludes by groveling on his knees, begging for the return of the Black residents.

After a prolonged blackout with chaos being simulated, which eventually comes to a quiet halt, the announcer reveals that the mayor was severely beaten by a mob, which almost led to his death. Afterwards, the town comes to a submissive halt.

The next morning, Clem and Luke, in a dazed state, see a Black man, Rastus, whom they thoroughly question. Rastus cannot recall where he was the past day, not knowing that the day had even passed. Luke claims that all has returned to normal, while Clem asks “is it?”

The Mandalorian and the Child head to Nevarro after the Mon Calamari repairs to the ship proved inadequate. They reunite with Greef Karga and Cara Dune there, who have since turned the planet around. Cara has become the local marshal, while Greef has taken on the role of magistrate, assisted by the unnamed Mythrol taken by the Mandalorian in Chapter 1. In return for the repairs, The Mandalorian agrees to help destroy an old Imperial base on the other side of the planet. The Child is placed in a school, where he uses The Force to steal blue macaron treats from another student.

The base turns out to have more than just a skeleton crew and stormtroopers patrol the corridors. They deactivate the lava cooling system, so that the natural lava flows will destroy the base. During their escape, they find scientists and vats of what appear to be cloned bodies. The scientists attempt to destroy the evidence. Mythrol uncovers a recording from Dr. Pershing that reveals he had been transfusing the blood of the Child, which has a high 'M-count', into test subjects. Stormtroopers soon swarm the team and they are forced to escape before the lava overheats and destroys the base.

The Mandalorian flies from the base to retrieve his ship, using his jetpack, whilst Karga, Dune, and Mythrol steal a stormtrooper transport. A chase ensues between the transport, driven by Dune, and scout troopers riding speeder bikes. Greef Karga kills the last scout trooper, but TIE fighters launched from the base chase after them, disabling the transport's cannon. The base soon explodes due to the overheating of the lava. As the TIE fighters close in on Dune, Karga and Mythrol, the ''Razor Crest'' appears and destroys the Imperials.

With his ship repaired and Nevarro secured, Mando heads for Corvus to track down Ahsoka Tano. The New Republic visits Karga to investigate the incident, with Captain Carson Teva noting "something is brewing and we need to put a stop to it". Teva speaks with Dune and tries asking for her help in fighting remnants of the Empire. When Alderaan, Dune's homeworld, is mentioned, she tells Teva that she lost everything after its destruction.

An Imperial officer receives confirmation from one of the mechanics working for Greef Karga that a tracking beacon has been placed on the ''Razor Crest''. Moff Gideon is informed and declares that they will be ready. The episode ends with Gideon looking over a line of Dark Troopers awaiting activation.

Following them, they kill one of the intruders and force the other to reveal the location of the children, who are at a barn. Once there, Sam and Dean free the children but they fight the vampires, with Sam being knocked out.

One of the vampires is Jenny (Christine Chatelain), a woman that they had failed to save from being turned into a vampire 14 years prior. Sam wakes up and they kill the vampires but Dean is impaled in the back by a spike. Sam intends to leave to find medical supplies but Dean has him stay, as his wound appears to be fatal. Dean reassures him that this was always how it was going to end for him and thanks Sam for everything, telling him he loves him and is proud of him. After saying goodbye, Dean dies in Sam's arms. The next day, Sam burns Dean's body in a funeral pyre.

Dean finds himself in Heaven and reunites with Bobby Singer (Jim Beaver) outside of the Roadhouse bar. Bobby reveals that after becoming God, Jack and Castiel reshaped Heaven to give everyone anything they wanted and tore down all of the walls keeping the souls separated from each other. After being told that his friend Rufus Turner (Steven Williams), and his parents John Winchester (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and Mary Winchester (Samantha Smith) live in the surrounding area, Dean takes the Chevrolet Impala for a ride through Heaven as "Carry On Wayward Son" plays on the radio.

Sam continues with his life, getting married and having a child, whom he names after Dean. As he grows older and his health deteriorates, he is visited by Dean Jr. in his dying moments. Sam then peacefully dies of natural causes. He then reunites with Dean in Heaven, on a version of the bridge first seen in the pilot episode.

As members of her family begins to disappear, seemingly victims of the ancient creature brought on by the curse and now living in their sugar cane, Elizabeth asks for help from Dr. Pearson (Christopher Lee) in the hope he may know a way to break the curse. The only way to break the curse is for Elizabeth to lure the Witch Doctor in a sugar cane field fire, where he perishes and the demon is destroyed, lifting the curse. However, the next morning Dr. Pearson discovers a bloody Panga on the beach and wonders if the monster was responsible for the deaths.

''60 Seconds!'' takes place in the United States during the 1960s. The game follows the McDoodle family (Ted, Dolores, Mary Jane, and Timmy) as they try to survive the effects of a nuclear apocalypse for as long as possible.

First, the player has the titular 60 seconds to acquire whatever supplies, family members, and diversional items (e.g. a checkers set), and bring them to an underground shelter beneath their house, including the family member they initially control, before a nuclear bomb is dropped on the neighborhood and detonates. Failure to do so affects the flow of the gameplay.

Each day, the player must make decisions for the family based on supplies available, limited information, or ability of family members. Some of these entail risks, and may result in poor health or even death of one or all of the family members.

For consumable supplies, the player must ration their usage, such as food and water among the family members, based on how much they initially acquired, their overall health, and their need for it. The player must also be cautious about the mental state of the family members, as the isolation of the shelter affects the gameplay as well. (e.g. Ted will turn one of his socks into a puppet and begin talking to it as if it was a person.)

At times, a character may be required to leave the shelter to scavenge for supplies and food. Again, this entails risk, as a family member may fall ill from the radiation outside, or may not come back because of an event resulting in the character's death.

Other times, a knock may be heard at the hatch of the underground shelter, and the player must make a decision on whether to ignore it, or open the hatch to allow whoever or whatever is there to interact with the characters. Depending on the event, this may result in a possible trade between the McDoodles and other affected families, or a shelter raid where supplies are stolen, or a mutant entering the shelter and mutating the family, ending the game.

If the player makes a decision at the right time, then there is the possibility of the U.S. Army coming to rescue the family, successfully ending the game.

A river lacks identity until a bear came along and fell into the river and is carried along on a log. This begins an adventure where the bear is joined going downstream by a frog, turtles, a beaver, raccoons, and a duck. Each has a trait or knowledge and also lacks knowledge of something. For instance, the beaver knows how to navigate but doesn't know about detours. After the duck joins, the group encounters a waterfall. The animals land safely and realize they "were in it together".

A young musician's journey home is accompanied by numerous sound effects.

Prologue

The dark secret of existence is that history has been destroyed and reborn over and over, in an endless repetition. As far as Metron is concerned, this is a cycle that must end. Metron was a being that observed the events of ''Flashpoint'', ''Infinite Crisis'', and ''Crisis on Infinite Earths''. Metron is observing the DC Universe when he meets the Anti-Monitor.

The Anti-Monitor states that he is not going to destroy reality. Metron reminds that he has already begun, weakening reality to the point that even now, Brainiac is set on the path of causing a convergence of timelines. Metron offers a pact between the two of them. He promises that if the Anti-Monitor ceases his attempts to destroy reality, he will give up observing, and put every effort into restoring the Anti-Monitor to what he once was. Coldly, the Anti-Monitor responds that Metron does not have the power to do that, but he already knows who does. He intends to break the cycle of destruction on his own. Metron warns that if Mobius/Anti-Monitor seeks this path, he will face the wrath of Darkseid. Unexpectedly, Omega Beams destroy the Mobius chair, and he warns that he wants war with Darkseid. His death is the key to all, and despite losing his conveyance, Metron will bear witness to the end of the age of the New Gods. The age of the Anti-God will soon begin.

Metron looks up, to find that the one who destroyed the Mobius chair is in fact Darkseid's daughter, Grail, who seeks to see him dead.

Act One

In the present day, Scott Free has heard rumors that Darkseid has found the Anti-Life Equation, and he hopes that by infiltrating Apokolips he can learn what his adoptive father plans to do with it. Whatever he learns, he will surely need the Justice League's help again.

The Justice League (Flash, Batman, Shazam, Cyborg Steve Trevor and Wonder Woman) are currently on the scene of an Boom Tube opening, having been alerted by the tech in Cyborg's body. Tracking it leads to the house of a man and woman, who are now dead. While The Flash and Batman examine the crime scene surrounding the woman using their unique investigative skills, Hal Jordan and Jessica Cruz work on isolating evidence on the dead husband upstairs. From DNA on a wine glass, Barry determines that whoever was drinking from it wasn't human. In the meantime, they are left to wonder where the non-human killer went. As Cyborg tries to determine that using ashes left behind by the Boom Tube, Shazam is troubled by the fact that, ostensibly being a kid, he has never seen a dead body before.

Cyborg soon learns that 44 Myrina Blacks were killed in the United States alone, and the League must protect them until they know what's happening. The Flash notes that Jessica is looking a bit uncomfortable, and wonders if she's alright when suddenly a woman with gray skin rips through Barry's body, and lightly grazes his chest with a scythe, just enough to draw first blood. Following the Flash, she turns her attention to Batman where she cuts into his shoulder with her scythe, and again in his back, pinning him to the ground before spotting Cyborg, in whom she recognizes the power of the Mother Box, and demands that he give it up to her.

As the woman begins tearing the technology from Cyborg's unconscious body, she is surprised when Shazam grabs her from behind sending electricity coursing through her body and then throws her into a nearby truck. In that moment of reprieve, he is surprised to see that Victor's body appears to have been growing back, but it is a brief reprieve, as the woman thrusts her scythe through Shazam's gut. As he writhes in the woman's grip, Wonder Woman wraps her Lasso around the woman and demands to know who she is. On her unfortune, her lasso's power of truth doesn't appear to be working and the mystery woman fights back.

Meanwhile, Superman warns Lex Luthor that he still doesn't trust him, regardless of whether even Wonder Woman does. Lex has recently moved Neutron from an A.R.G.U.S. facility to LexCorp, claiming that he will receive better care there, despite the fact that Superman had earlier heard him threaten the would-be assassin's life. Lena Luthor reports to Lex and Superman that Wonder Woman's communications have gone down, and Lex insists on going to see what happened, preparing a Kryptonite-fueled Warsuit. He explains that Kryptonite is a valuable energy source that could power all of Metropolis, were it not for the fact that doing so would prevent Superman from being in the city. Superman responds that whatever Lex says about it, he is still convinced he is a common criminal and states that he will no longer be having any association with the Justice League. Angrily, Lex blasts him with his suit, responding that Superman is not the leader of the League, so it is not for him to decide that. He is also put out that superman would talk to him that way in front of his sister. Unexpectedly, Lena herself shoots Lex in the arm with a pistol, causing him to pass out. As Superman looks on with surprise, she responds that everyone hates Lex, even her.

From above the scene of the attack on the League, Green Lantern assigns Power Ring to do crowd control while he tries to distract the attacker. Green Lantern is beaten, and the mystery woman takes control of Jessica's power ring to summon the Anti-Monitor. Lena reveals that she is holding a Mother Box, and orders it to send Superman and Lex to their ends, in the name of Darkseid.

Unable to withstand both Lashina and Kanto at once, Scott asks his own Mother Box to steal their coordinates, and evade them. He is surprised when it drops him at the feet of a huge griffin. Fortunately, its owner reminds it that Scott is not an enemy. Despite her knowing this, Scott does not recognize her. She reveals that she is Myrina Black, and she has spent decades planning a war to kill Darkseid. She offers him the opportunity to join her in that war while revealing the mystery woman that attacked the Justice League is Grail, and Myrina Black is Grail's mother.

The League, meanwhile, has been defeated by a mysterious gray-skinned warrior woman called Grail, who claims to be of Amazon blood. Having stolen the Ring of Volthoom from Power Ring, she called the Anti-Monitor to this world, and now Wonder Woman - the only among the League who is still fit to fight - steels herself for a war that has already begun. Grail welcomes her attack, but their battle is not to occur, as the Anti-Monitor slams his fist down into the Earth. In wonder, Diana asks just who he is. He responds that he is desperate, reaching out to destroy her. In that instance, a Boom Tube erupts, and Metron appears, admitting that while Grail plays the game well, he does too. In another instant, he is gone, and he has taken the League with him. Grail insists that she will get the trophies she seeks in killing the League, but the Anti-Monitor reminds her that she will only get them after she delivers her father to him. She assures him that her mother promised that the war they seek would come to pass.

Myrina Black explains to Mister Miracle that she is humanity's savior. She had once been the Amazons' chosen assassin until they abandoned the great mission they were given by the old gods. They were meant to save the world from war, and she has been doing so for a long time. While Queen Hippolyta had chosen to hide the Amazons away on Paradise Island, Myrina had refused to hide, knowing that the dark god would one day come to enslave all of the Earth's inhabitants.

In preparation for this day, she created a weapon against war by giving birth to Darkseid's own daughter. She sent Grail to traverse reality in search of a being with the power to kill Darkseid, and she found the Anti-Monitor. The war against Darkseid will now take place with Earth as its battleground. Incredulously shocked by Myrinda's action, Scott realized that billions of innocents will die. Unmoved, Myrina responds that war always comes at a cost - and Darkseid must die at any price. Scott's insistence that innocent lives are more important than her cause leads Myrina to turn on him. She thrusts her spear into his side. Emitting a bright light from his hand, Scott manages to blind her long enough to order his Mother Box to take him to friends.

Recovering, the League finds themselves at the feet of Metron and his Mobius Chair. Shazam recognizes their surroundings as the Rock of Eternity, and Metron explains that he brought them to it because it is hidden from the view of the New Gods. Green Lantern claims that Metron cannot be trusted, having dealt with him once in the past. Metron insists that he was only observing the attack on Oa, as he has observed the League save the world many times. This time, though, he states, there is no saving it. He warns the League to go to their loved ones, and then leave the Earth if they wish to survive. Wonder Woman reminds Metron that he should already know by observing them that they will not do that, and demands to know who the monster she saw was. Casually, Metron responds that this was the Anti-Monitor, but his story is forbidden to them. Frustratedly, she wraps her Lasso around him and asks to know how she can get the information she needs to stop the Anti-Monitor. Metron resists the Lasso's power, but her force of will causes him to let slip that the only way to get the answers to her questions is to take the Mobius Chair from him.

With that knowledge, Diana yanks Metron from his seat, and the unstable chair begins preparing to Boom away. Without hesitation, Batman sits on the chair to stop it from doing so, but the power that surges through him, as a result, is greater than expected. Finally, the surge calms, and Batman realizes that he can hear the answers to everything. Testing it, he asks who killed his parents. The answer is, as he already knows, Joe Chill. As another test, he asks the Joker's real name - but the answer he receives troubles him. Worriedly, Green Lantern points out that Batman can barely master a power ring, and the chair is surely worse. Diana asks if Batman is alright, and he responds assuredly that he is fine.

While fighting against Parademons in Apokolips, Lex Luthor realizes that the air is killing Superman, which is causing him to bleed. Hal Jordan is uneasy about Batman being in the Mobius Chair, but Batman assures him he's okay. Mister Miracle arrives in front of the heroes and tells them that he needs their help. The heroes (with the exception of Batman) confront Anti-Monitor and Grail once more when suddenly Darkseid and his army of Parademons as well as DaSaad, Kalibak, and Steppenwolf appear. Superman and Lex Luthor are confronted by Parademons, and Lex realizes that Superman needs to have his body recharged, and the fiery pits of Apokolips are the only thing that can recharge Superman, and Lex throws him in the pit. Just before Lex is killed, Superman arrives in a negative form, saying he should have killed him a long time ago.

Batman and Green Lantern go to the Crime Syndicate's world (since the villains have encountered Anit-Monitor in the past) to find it burning and destroyed. Green Lantern asks Batman if he's okay; Bruce says he's fine but insults Green Lantern by saying the power ring is the only special thing about him. Superman, corrupted by Apokolips, tells Lex Luthor that all those fights they had were him holding back, and knocks Lex out before leaving Apokolips. Grail blinds Kalibak, and Darkseid summons the Black Racer to heavily injure the Anti-Monitor. Green Lantern and Batman go to the center of the anti-matter universe and realize that Mobius was the one who created the Mobius Chair, and the Anti-Monitor is Mobius. The anti-Monitor forces the Flash to fuse with the Black Racer, and the fused Flash-Black Racer kills Darkseid.

Act Two: After Death

Having killed Darkseid, the Anti-Monitor cocooned himself in a shell of energy, and eventually separated himself from the Anti-Life Equation, which was then obtained by Grail. Shortly afterward, he emerged from his shell and changed into a more human-looking form, once again Mobius, but still possessing vast power and legions of Shadow Demons. With Darkseid gone, suddenly all the heroes become corrupt. The Flash-Black Racer returns to the team, saying he is the God of Death. Superman nearly beats Lex Luthor to death while proclaiming himself as the God of Strength. Shazam gets corrupted by the New Gods (who are angry at Darkseid's death) and he becomes the God of Gods, and leaves. Lex Luthor wanders around Apokolips, and falls in the fiery pits, becoming the God of Apokolips.

Wonder Woman realizes they need the Crime Syndicate's help since they have dealt with the Anti-Monitor, while Myrinda Black meets up with Grail. Grail tells her mother that she was after the Anti-Life Equation, and becomes the Goddess of the Anti-Life.

Act Three: Gods of Justice

Corrupted Superman tries fighting Wonder Woman, while Mister Miracle finds an imprisoned Ultraman for his advice and help. Ultraman reveals he is weakened because he needs kryptonite, and Anti-monitor is planning to kill everyone. Jessica Cruz's power ring finally corrupts her and she turns into Power Ring. Wonder Woman calms Superman down by reminding him who he is; Batman and Hal Jordan appear in front of them. Batman explains to Superman, but the Apokolips energy that Superman absorbed is killing him because the energy is breaking down his cellular structure. Mister Miracle's girlfriend Big Barda arrives and tells him that Power Ring just freed the rest of the imprisoned Crime Syndicate, including a pregnant Superwoman. Power Ring corrupts Cyborg, turning him into the Grid (a sentient computer virus in a robot body made from Cyborg's old prosthetic parts). Owlman arrives and tells everyone they need to work together.

The Crime Syndicate and Justice League meet up and Owlman explains they're only teaming up with the Justice League to take down Anti-Monitor. Owlman offers them a deal, if the Justice League creates a new body for Grid while letting Power Ring possess Jessica Cruz, they'll help them. Wonder Woman reluctantly agrees, and Mister Miracle gives Ultraman kryptonite so he can regain his strength. Suddenly, they're attacked by the Anti-Monitor (who goes by Mobius), and Hal Jordan sends backup (an army of Green Lanterns that includes John Stewart, Kilowog, Kyle Rayner, and Guy Gardner) to take down Mobius. Wonder Woman, Superwoman, Ultraman, and Superman fight Mobius while Batman is knocked out of his chair. During the chaos, Grail kidnaps Steve Trevor, and Mobius kills Ultraman. Superwoman says the baby is coming, and Grail has plans for Steve Trevor.

Lex Luthor arrives to help turn the tide in the battle. Batman, sitting in the Mobius Chair, tells Superman and Wonder Woman how to take down Mobius, and Superman releases the apokoliptian energy on Mobius to wound him. Mobius gets back up, and attacks Lex Luthor, but before killing him Grail arrives with Myrinda Black and a possessed Steve Trevor under the influence of the Anti-Life Equation. Grail orders Steve Trevor to unleash a blast on Mobius, turning him into a skeleton, and telling Steve to attack the rest of the League.

Superwoman gives birth to a boy, while Superman and Lex Luthor trying to take down Steve Trevor. Grid tries to convince Superwoman and Owlman to leave, but Superwoman uses her baby's power to absorb the Apokoliptian energy of Superman and Lex Luthor. Superwoman plans to absorb everyone's powers so she can conquer the world, but Grail kills her and takes the baby. Grail uses the baby's power to split Flash and Black Racer as well as Shazam's apokoliptian powers. It is revealed that Cyborg and Jessica Cruz are stuck in the realm of the Power Ring (due to Power Ring tricking Cyborg to turn him into Grid), and Cyborg hacks the power ring from the inside so the Power Ring steps in front of the Black Racer. The Black Racer kills the Power Ring, and leaves. The Justice League attacks Grail, but Grail uses the baby to take the Anti-Life Equation from Steve Trevor, turning the baby into Darkseid.

Grail tells Darkseid to kill the Justice League, and Hal Jordan gives his green lantern ring to Batman, breaking him out of the Mobius Chair. Owlman and Grid take the Mobius Chair and disappear. Big Barda and Mister Miracle join the fight against Grail, and Myrinda Black sides with the Justice League after realizing that Grail is corrupt just like Darkseid. Myrinda Black explains Grail is her and Darkseid's daughter, and Grail was supposed to kill Darkseid, not bring him back. Myrinda Black and Wonder Woman fight Grail and Batman tells Wonder Woman the only way to defeat Grail is to separate the Anti-Life Equation from Darkseid. Grail kills her mother, and accidentally hits Darkseid, separating the Anti-Life Equation from him and defeating Darkseid.

Aftermath

Jessica Cruz is chosen to be the new Green Lantern after her sacrifice and is revived. Grail escapes with an infant Darkseid. Green Lantern asks Batman why was he so surprised about the Mobius chair answering his Joker question, and Batman reveals the Mobius Chair told him that there were [Batman: The Three Jokers]. Before dying, Myrinda Black told Wonder Woman that she had a secret twin brother named Jason, and Cyborg is free. Superman learns from doctors that he is dying and has only a few months left.

Owlman transports the Mobius Chair to the moon (with the Grid installed in the Mobius Chair). Metron appears in front of Owlman and wants the chair, but Owlman says with the chair he can gain more power and learn more secrets of the universe. As Owlman is talking, he and Metron are immediately vaporized in a flash of blue light by the mysterious entity, with only the Mobius Chair left intact and with blood on it.

In 1719 in the Great Plains, Naru, a young Comanche woman trained as a healer, dreams of becoming a great hunter like her brother, Taabe. While tracking deer with her dog, Sarii, she witnesses a mysterious flash of light in the clouds, which she interprets as a Thunderbird, and takes this as a sign to prove herself. What Naru saw was actually the lights of the alien Predator's spacecraft.

Back at the village, one of their tribe's hunters has been taken by a mountain lion, and Taabe and other young men are about to set out to rescue their friend. Taabe is dismissive of Naru's report, and assumes Naru saw the lion, or maybe a bear. He says she can come on the search party, but only so she can provide medical treatment if they find the hunter alive. They retrieve the wounded hunter and depart, though Taabe stays behind to find and kill the big cat.

Finding huge, unusual tracks and a meticulously skinned rattlesnake, Naru circles back with Paake and finds Taabe. Together the three set a trap for the mountain lion but it kills Paake. Naru faces off with the big cat on the branch of a tree but, after being distracted by the strange sounds and lights of the Predator in the distance, falls and strikes her head. She wakes up in her family home, having been carried back by Taabe. He later returns to the village carrying the dead mountain lion, earning him the title of War Chief.

Convinced of a greater threat, of something they've never seen before, Naru departs with Sarii. She comes across a herd of skinned bison, their bodies left to rot on the plains. She is baffled by the wasteful slaughter, and says a prayer for their spirits. Naru and Sarii are attacked by a grizzly bear. As they flee for their lives, the bear is killed by the Predator, giving Naru time to escape before running into a group of Comanche sent to find her. The Predator ambushes and kills the men in combat, while Naru is caught in a foothold trap; the Predator leaves as it no longer sees her as a threat.

French voyageurs, responsible for slaughtering and skinning the bison, come to check their trap, find Naru and cage her. Their translator, Raphael Adolini, questions Naru about the Predator, who the Frenchmen have encountered before. When she refuses to talk, the lead ''voyageur'' reveals that he has Taabe captive and tortures him before using both siblings as bait for the Predator. While tied to a tree, Taabe admits to his sister that she had weakened the mountain lion, enabling him to kill it. The Predator kills most of the Frenchmen while Taabe and Naru escape. Naru rescues Sarii from the camp and stumbles across a dying Raphael, who teaches her how to use his flintlock pistol in exchange for medical treatment for his severed leg. Naru gives him herbs that reduce his body heat to stanch the bleeding. When the Predator arrives, Raphael plays dead, and Naru realizes that, due to his reduced body heat, the creature cannot see him. After it steps on Raphael, he screams, at which point the Predator kills him.

Taabe arrives on horseback to rescue Naru. Together they weaken the Predator, but it kills Taabe. Naru flees and finds the surviving lead Frenchman. She knocks him out, severs one of his legs, and gives him an unloaded gun before eating the herbs to hide her body heat, baiting the Predator to kill the ''voyageur''. She uses Raphael's pistol to ambush the creature, knocking off its mask, which she has previously seen to hold the targeting system for the Predator's spear gun. She steals the device and flees into the woods.

Naru uses the Frenchman's severed leg to lure the Predator into a mud-filled bog pit, where she has positioned the creature's mask such that it targets the creature stuck in the pit. When the Predator fires the spear gun at Naru, the projectile homes in on the Predator, killing it. Naru severs its head and paints her face with its glowing green blood. She brings the head and the flintlock pistol back to her tribe. They honor her victory by declaring Naru the new War Chief.

During the end credits, an animated hide painting depicts the entire narrative of the film, from the three Predator spaceships arriving in Comanche territory, through to Naru's victory.

Based on the Dance of the Forty-One which was a society scandal in early 20th-century Mexico. The incident revolved around an illegal police raid carried out in 17 November 1901 in a private home in Mexico City. The scandal involved the group of men who attended, 19 of whom were dressed in women's clothing. Despite the government's efforts to hush the incident up, the press was keen to report the incident, since the participants belonged to the upper echelons of society (including the son-in-law of the incumbent President of Mexico). This scandal was unique in that it was the first time homosexuality was openly spoken about in the Mexican media and had a lasting impact on Mexican culture.

Prelude

The Flash called on help from Eobard Thawne (who just killed Barry's mother in the past) to help defeat a villain name Paradox who is causing damage to the Time Stream. Barry and Eobard free Godspeed from Paradox and the three of them manage to defeat Paradox, but Eobard kills Godspeed after revealing to him that he killed Godspeed's brother before escaping and creating his own Legion of Zoom. Eobard goes in the future and turns Barry's future kids (The Wonder Twins) evil and the Legion of Zoom (Captain Cold, Gorilla Grodd, Golden Glider, Turtle, and Trickster) hold Barry down while Eobard vibrates into Barry, taking control of Barry's mind. Meanwhile, Barry is stuck in the Speed Force and sees zombified versions of Jesse Chambers and Max Mercury).

Main synopsis

Eobard (in Barry's body) meets up with Impulse (who is Eobard's ancestor) and takes him away from the Young Justice to "fight" crime. Barry is about to disappear, but Jesse Chambers and Max Mercury grab a hold of Barry and Barry remembers them. Max says that they aren't in the speed force but in a deeper plane of existence. Max and Jesses then teach Barry how to get his body back. Eobard and Impulse are fighting the Rogues when Barry briefly manages to take control of his own body. Trickster throws a bomb at Eobard, but Eobard catches it and throws it back at Trickster, making Impulse shocked. Eobard insults Bart by reminding him how Bart in the past tried to be the Flash but got himself killed, before leaving. It is revealed that Eobard set the whole crime up, and tells them to go find the items required to fully possess Barry's body.

Eobard meets up with Iris West, Kid Flash and Avery Ho (an Asian speedster), who was hiding from Eobard. Eobard tells them to go fight the Legion of Doom, but Impulse arrives and kicks Eobard in the face, saying that Barry Allen is never mean, and deduces Eobard as taking control of Barry Allen's body. Impulse meets with Wallace for the first time, and Iris remembers Impulse as her grandson which makes Kid Flash confused due to time travel. Eobard gets back up and is about to attacked when Jay Garrick arrives (due to him being free in Doomsday Clock).

Max tells Barry that his body is still tethered to Earth so he can bring him, Max, and Jesse back. Eobard defeats Impulse, Jay Garrick, Kid Flash, and Avery Ho and is about to kill Jay Garrick when Barry starts fighting back and Eobard runs off. Jay Garrick thinks that they can find Eobard due to Barry's body being connected to the speed force. The Legion of Zoom is disgusted that Eobard Thawne ordered them to extract Nora Allen's corpse. Eobard explains that Nora Allen's body is important because her body has temporal energy, and if Eobard can extract the temporal body then Barry Allen will be gone forever. Meanwhile, Barry is attacked by a mental projection of Thaddeus Thawne (a twisted clone of Bart Allen from the future) but doesn't fight back, saying he feels sorry for him.

Barry realizes the only way to get back his body is to vibrate at the correct vibrational frequency. Jay Garrick, Iris, Avery, Impulse, and Kid Flash arrive at Nora's grave thanks to Trickster, and Eobard sends him back in time. Impulse successfully breaks control of the Wonder Twins (his parents') brainwashing, and they fade away in the timestream. Barry successfully manages to break free of Eobard's mind control and expels Eobard out of his body, alongside Jessie Quick and Max Mercury (whom Impulse is happy to see). Eobard Thawne then goes to the past and gets every Flash villain (including Bloodwork, Rag Doll, Paper Cut, Girder, and Turtle) to the present to fight the Flash family and destroy Central City.

In the 863rd century on Mercury, a Kid Flash talks to another speedster (John Fox) about the Flash history, and says that on one specific day Barry and Eobard raced for one last time for unknown reasons. Barry tells Kid Flash to get Iris West to safety. Max Mercury meditates while Jay Garrick, Impulse, and Jesse Quick protect him. After a brief few seconds, a large flash appears and many speedsters from different timelines appear to help out (an alternate version of Wally West name Walter West, Jay Garrick of Earth 2, Wally's kids Irey West and Jai West alongside Linda Park, Meena Dhawan, Lia Nelson, Fuerza (Alexa Antigone), the Renegades, and Krakkl). Impulse, Irey West, Kid Flash, and Avery create a plan to run around in circles so they can create a vibrational frequency that can make the villains go back to their timeline.

Meanwhile, Eobard Thawne reveals to Barry that he was responsible for everything after researching Barry's entire life as he discovered a hypnotic frequency that allows him to manipulate anyone's thoughts he encounters, like turning Hunter Zolomon and August Heart evil, killing Barry's mother, persuading Bart to delay his reunion with his family, manipulating Barry's personality to feel distrustful and pessimistic, trapping Jay Garrick in the timestream, causing Wallace West to exist and turning his father into the Reverse-Flash, making Kid Flash have an argument with Damian Wayne, and goading Wally West into deep despair and trauma resulting to his strained relationship with Barry and hiding evidence of his friends' death in the Sanctuary. Barry gets angry but Eobard overpowers Barry and just before he is about to kill him, huge blue lightning hits both of them, with Barry hearing Wally's voice. Eobard is afraid, saying this hasn't happened in the timeline, and goes off in the Speed Force, with Barry chasing after him saying that he will kill him.

Eobard tells Barry that he will go to the 25th century and try to find new ways to torture his family, stating that he and Barry will always be trapped in the loop. Eobard offers a solution, always run after him in the Speed Force, or kill him to break the loop. Eobard tries to goad Barry into killing him again, but Barry tries something different and he forgives Eobard, which shocks Eobard. Barry explains they're always in this loop because Eobard is stuck in the past, and Barry's hatred keeps him tethered. Eobard is angered and runs at Barry, but passes through Barry. Barry says he is sorry that he rejected Eobard when they first met, but he can't let Eobard define his life. Barry explains he pulled in energy similar to Flashpoint and vibrated to let some of his speed go in Eobard Thawne.

Thawne realizes that the only reason why he can exist in the past and still come back was that he was a paradox but Barry reset him, which causes him to disappear. Barry says goodbye to Eobard Thawne and runs off with Eobard disintegrating. This erases Eobard's experience of his life as the Reverse-Flash, leaving him as a tour guide in the Flash Museum of his home era and unaware of his villainous past. Barry goes to the 25th century to make sure before running off to the present. Barry goes to the time stream and returns the Wonder Twins, Renegades, the Rogues, and Gorilla Grodd to their place (while also erasing August's heart's tombstone) before talking to the Justice League and cleaning up Central City.

Barry reveals the night Wally West returned, a woman named Heather Macy was killed and before he could investigate the Legion of Zoom attacked and the evidence was stolen, and Barry wonders why. Barry is looking at his childhood home when a woman walks up to him and starts chatting with him. Before leaving, she reveals her name is Heather Macy, but her husband's last name is Thawne (implying that she is the ancestor of Eobard Thawne) much to Barry's surprise.

While everyone is having a party at Barry's house, Barry tells Iris that he heard Wally West's voice, and realizes he's alive. Iris tells Barry from Linda Park that Wally recused their kids during his mission on rescuing the multiverse. Barry promises Iris that he will find him before getting a call from the Justice League and running off to protect the city while saying that he will always be The Flash.

Cassiopeia discovers that the black hole is creating wormholes that she can use to jump to Earth ahead of the black hole, while Control finds that the black hole was created due to an image in the future sending a signal back in time.

The journal chapters follow Kasio, a transgender woman who has just completed her Master's degree at a university in Dublin and is returning to her hometown in Achill Island during December 1993. Kasio has a strained relationship with her older brother Fergal and her mother Brid, which she attributes both to the stress on the family after her father's death some years prior as well as her own inability to conform to the social norms of the islanders. After a fight with her mother over Kasio's feminine clothes and appearance, Kasio runs away. She meets a friend, Colum, who invites her to stay with him and the rest of his band in the abandoned, decrepit house that the band is squatting in. Kasio lives with Colum, his boyfriend Jack, and their younger bandmate Shans for several weeks, slowly adjusting to the feeling of being with people who seem to accept her as she is despite their limited resources and tenuous living situation. She begins to grow close to Shans, bonding over their shared difficulties in fitting in with Achill culture—Kasio due to her gender expression, and Shans due to his race and uneasiness with traditional Achill masculinity. They break into Kasio's family's house to get her clothes, but are discovered by her brother, who berates her for upsetting her mother and shaming the family by failing to fit in. After the band's first show, Kasio and Shans take drugs and alcohol and watch the stars through a hole in the abandoned house's roof. The next morning, Shans informs Kasio that she had agreed to run away together to Dublin as a couple. When Kasio declines, Shans leaves the house and the band. Kasio, Colum, and Jack are evicted from the increasingly decrepit house and stay with Colum's aunt Maggy, despite Colum and Jack's being upset with Kasio.

Kasio attempts to reconcile with her family for Christmas dinner, but is berated by her brother for living in an abandoned house with social misfits and then moving to stay with the quietly gay Maggy instead of coming home to her family, while her mother continues to express confusion about Kasio's choices. Kasio feels distraught by her estrangement from her family and unworthy to stay with Maggy. She is rejected by Shans, who tells her he wants to be "normal", and Kasio breaks into the abandoned house again. Depressed, she stays there despite the freezing temperatures, not responding to searches by her brother or friends who approach the house but do not enter the now dangerous building. She burns her journal for warmth before succumbing to illness and hypothermia.

As the science fiction story concludes, Cassiopeia reaches Earth, only to discover that McHugh is an accountant who accidentally managed to talk to her. They take the image, a child's drawing of a space scene previously shown to have been drawn by Kasio as a child, and put it in the letterbox for a woman who looks like Brid to find before waiting for the black hole to hit the Earth. Kasio awakens in the abandoned house on December 31, having been found by her mother. The epilogue covers a series of journal entries constructed by the player covering scattered details of the next years, such as Kasio and her mother growing closer, Maggy learning to live without hiding being a lesbian, and Shans changing their name to Anu and coming out as non-binary. The science fiction story has scenes of Cassiopeia traveling and bringing scattered people together after the destruction of the black hole.

On the morning of Princess Bean's wedding day, she escapes to a bar to play cards with the other attendants. She takes the money, then escapes the bar as the others try to rob her. Upon exiting the building, she is stopped by Odval, the advisor of King Zøg, Bean's father. Odval takes her back to the castle for handmaiden Bunty to get her ready for her "big day." The procession from Bentwood, a neighboring kingdom, arrives, and introduces Guysbert, the eldest child of King Lorenzo I and Queen Bunny, whom Bean is set to wed. Zøg and Queen Oona of Dreamland, Bean's hometown and the setting of the show, are there to greet Guysbert's parents. Meanwhile, in Elfwood, the land of the elves, Elfo is not happy with his boring job at a pre-packaged candy assortment assembly line, and wishes for something more. When King Rulo declares that Elfo cannot date his girlfriend Kissy anymore, he leaves Elfwood, an act that has only ever been done by legendary elf Leavo before. Elfo adventures through the forest and eventually comes to Dreamland.

Back in the castle, Bean finds a strange gift among the pile of wedding presents. In it is Luci, a "personal demon," as he calls himself. Bean tries to get rid of Luci, but finally accepts him when he promises to help her get out of her wedding. Elsewhere, two mysterious beings watch Bean as she meets the demon. While wandering the castle playing pranks on Zøg, Bean runs into Oona, her step-mother who married Zøg for a political alliance much like Bean is about to do with Guysbert. The two talk until the wedding commences. Elfo meets two humble farmers who give him food and drink on his way to the castle. Bean turns Guysbert down, and, subsequently, he ends up impaled on a decorative throne of swords. Lorenzo I and Bunny converse with Zøg and Oona and eventually they decide to have Bean wed Guysbert's younger brother, Merkimer. Elfo arrives just in time to help Bean escape, and the two (along with Luci) are instructed by a fairy to go visit the Wishmaster, a being who lives up on top of a mountain who can grant wishes to those who seek him. When the trio arrive at the top of the mountain, though, they realize that he is actually the Washmaster, who washes people's clothes, and that Merkimer and the Dreamland knights are headed their way.

Players initially control Maritte Hildegaard, a teenager who travels to the magical school of Ikenfell to find her sister Safina, who has gone missing since summer break. Although she is initially non-magical, she soon mysteriously develops pyromancy while trying to enter Ikenfell, after which she learns bizarre and unprecedented magical events began occurring across the school grounds not long after the students left for the break, and thus the school is currently on lockdown. She encounters non-binary alchemist Petronella, a close friend of Safina, who has had an emotional breakdown due to the latter's disappearance, and tells Maritte of a secret passage of Safina's they use to get into the school.

Once inside, they discover Safina's dorm room blocked by a magic seal. After fighting lightning magician Gilda, who is attracted to Maritte, they join up with fellow student Rook. With Rook and Safina's rival Pertisia, they successfully enter it by disguising Maritte as her sister. Inside, they retrieve the Prism Heart, a creation of Safina that allows the user to see through deception, which she had used for research with older student Ima. Meeting with Ima and Gilda, they go to the Summerstone, a large orb which imprisons the Dark Fold, a destructive wave of magic seemingly precipitating the strange events. At the stone, they successfully fight experienced coven magician Bax and his partner Ibn, who are also looking for Safina. Using the Prism Heart, they reveal that the Summerstone is merely an illusion, and Safina destroyed the actual stone.

Believing her sister wanted to free the Dark Fold, Maritte has a panic attack and rids herself of her magic, and decides to leave Ikenfell. Ima asks the school's raven deity to remove Maritte and get help, but it refuses to do either, instead sending the party to the ancient ruins of old Ikenfell. There, they discover that a squad tried to defend an important plant, the Sapling, from the Dark Fold. Aeldra, the current headmistress of Ikenfell, was the only survivor, using her friends' magic powers to construct the Summerstone, imprisoning both the Dark Fold and the Sapling. Motivated by getting answers and her friends, Maritte regains her magic. In the library's archives, her party finds an old book that explains the cycle of the two magical seasons. Every thousand years, the Sapling dies, causing a new generation of magic to arise, and the old generation to be forgotten; this process is the cause of Ikenfell's unusual magical events. Aeldra's vain act to keep the Sapling preserved would lead to "great catastrophe", in repetition of the fall of old Ikenfell a thousand years ago. This is causing her uncontrollable grief, which she can only abate through expelling her pain into a cauldron. Safina, having found out the truth, tried to stop her.

Persuading several professors to oppose her, they decide to confront Aeldra, as the school is slowly collapsing. The party arrives at the Spelltower, where Aeldra is guarding the Sapling. Finding the doors blocked, Pertisia reveals she created a secret passage like Safina's, but suffered injuries from it that traumatized her, and she uses her powers to create a new passage. As they try convincing Aeldra to stop guarding the Sapling, her stress breaks her cauldron, overwhelming her and making her lose contact with reality. Convinced she is defeating the Dark Fold, she kills Bax and attacks Maritte's party; the party defeats and awakens her from her trance. Distraught at the loss of his lover Bax, Ibn steals the Sapling. Revealing his immense power in the spiritual realm, his anger makes him lose his sense of self and become a monster. After defeating Ibn, the party uses Petronella's magic to revive Bax, who calms Ibn back to normality, and they free the Sapling.

Petronella and Safina join the coven as repayment for saving Ibn and Bax. Aeldra retires, leaving the role of headmistress to Ima and dueling teacher Radegund, who begin research into the new knowledge created by the next magical generation. In the epilogue, Rook and Gilda travel to distant lands to make new discoveries. Pertisia resumes her old music career and begins a relationship with Maritte, and they both agree to go on the journey as well.

Calista Frangopoulou, a 57-year-old, London-based film composer, is facing a crisis in her life, as her offers of work dry up and her daughter Fran struggles with an unwanted pregnancy. The departure of her other daughter Ariane for Australia triggers a reminiscence about the time she left her then family home in Athens to travel round America in 1976.

On that trip, Calista makes friends with a young English woman, Gill Foley. It's been arranged for Gill to have dinner in Los Angeles with an old friend of her father's, the Hollywood director Billy Wilder. She invites Calista to join her, but disappears halfway through the meal, leaving Calista in the company of Wilder, I.A.L. Diamond and their wives. Calista gets drunk and has to crash out at the Wilders' apartment. The next day she leaves them a thank-you note with her parents' name and address.

One year later, she receives a phone call at her parents' apartment, asking her to work for two weeks as interpreter on the set of Wilder's latest film ''Fedora''. She is flown to Corfu, and then to the village of Nydri on the island of Lefkada. In Nydri, as her work comes to an end, she tells Diamond that she doesn't want to return to her parents just yet, and he arranges for her to be taken on as his assistant in Munich, where the film's interiors are to be shot.

In Munich, at a dinner in honour of the film's composer Miklós Rózsa, Calista listens as Wilder confronts a young German diner who is a proponent of holocaust denial. In a fifty-page flashback presented as a screenplay, Wilder recounts his experience of fleeing Nazi Germany in the 1930s, then returning to Germany in 1945 to make ''Death Mills'', his documentary about Nazi atrocities, and to search in vain for his mother and other family members, who he concludes must have died in the death camps.

The production of ''Fedora'' moves to Paris, where Calista has long conversations with Wilder's and Diamond's wives, and sleeps with Matthew, a young man whose mother is working on the film. After the shooting wraps, an exhausted Wilder and Diamond drink a brief toast, telling each other that "We made it".

A brief epilogue tells of the unsuccessful release of ''Fedora'', and the resolution of Calista's present-day family crisis.

A mother with a boring job has to deal with her rebellious daughter.

In 1990, five years after successfully defending accused murderer Carl Lee Hailey (in ''A Time to Kill'', the first book in the series), attorney Jake Brigance of fictional Clanton (Ford County), Mississippi, is assigned by Circuit Court Judge Omar Noose to the case of 16-year-old Drew Gamble. The boy was accused of murder after he shot and killed Stuart Kofer, a deputy sheriff who was his mother Josie's boyfriend.

After Josie, along with her 14-year-old daughter Kiera and Drew, moved in with Kofer, the deputy beat them on many occasions after coming home drunk. Josie called 911 several times but never pressed charges. Since Kofer performed well when he was sober and was well-liked by his fellow officers, no reports were filed, and Sheriff Ozzie Walls was unaware of Kofer's violent tendencies when he was drunk. On the night of the murder, Kofer again came home in a drunken rage and knocked Josie unconscious while breaking her jaw. Both Drew and Kiera thought their mother was dead and were afraid of what Kofer might do after he came to from his stupor. After calling 911 to report the situation, Drew used Kofer's service pistol to shoot the deputy in the head.

Taking the case puts Brigance at odds with most of the residents of Clanton, as well as the local law enforcement community, including his longtime friend Sheriff Walls. He tries to convince Judge Noose to find another lawyer to defend young Gamble but to no avail. Meanwhile, Brigance and his associate Harry Rex Vonner are working on a tort case against the Central and Southern Railroad. The case involves the death of a young family named Smallwood in a collision with a train at a poorly maintained crossing. Brigance needs to win that case, also in Judge Noose's court, in order to pay the costs of defending Drew Gamble, as Drew's mother is penniless and the government will only pay Brigance a small stipend of $1,000.

With the assistance of his paralegal Portia Lang and the advice of his mentor Lucien Wilbanks, Brigance puts together a case he hopes will sway at least some jurors to find young Gamble not guilty. The strategy is based on the fact that Kiera Gamble is pregnant after being sexually assaulted by Kofer. By concealing the pregnancy until the trial, the element of surprise does indeed have the desired effect, resulting in a hung jury and the release of Drew Gamble on bail. Because Josie Gamble wants her daughter to avoid the problems she had faced as a young mother, she agrees to let Brigance and his wife Carla adopt the baby.

Meanwhile, Judge Noose orders Ford County to pay Brigance in full for his time and expenses of defending Drew Gamble, a decision which is promptly appealed by the attorney for the county. In addition, Wilbanks suggests a way for Brigance to get the Smallwood case moved to chancery court, where the case can be tried without a jury and Judge Reuben Atlee will undoubtedly force the railroad into a settlement.

Moby Dick in space.

The jokes' basic plot is that of a little rabbit visiting a shop, a doctor’s practice, the authorities, or any such place, and asking, "''Hattu Möhrchen?''" (Do you have carrots?). The punch line, often a simple pun, follows in the answer. In variations, the little rabbit asks for unusual things, e.g. cold coffee or something rabbit-specific like carrot cake.

Example: A rabbit enters a record store and asks the saleswoman: ''"Hattu Platten?"'' (Do you have records?; ''Platten'' being a homonym of a flat tire.) When she answers in the affirmative, the rabbit replies: ''"Muttu aufpumpen!"'' (Then you have to inflate it.)

An important part of these jokes is the assumed inability of rabbits to pronounce certain sounds of human speech due to their big incisors, especially where consonant clusters are concerned. Thus, the rabbit says ''"Hattu"'' instead of ''"Hast Du"'' (Do you have), and ''“Muttu”'' instead of ''“Musst Du”'' (You have to).

The film begins with Sayuri walking into an alley following a panic attack caused by her ability to see evil spirits and ghosts. One of the owners of a nearby café named Extra, Yumeko, then walks out to find Sayuri crouching on the ground in distress and asks if she is okay.

The next scene shows a child riding a bicycle. As she rides, she is mysteriously wounded on her right cheek, seemingly for no reason. Her mother then brings her to Extra, where she meets Sayuri, who is working there as a part-time employee out of gratitude to Yumeko, who also provides spiritual help to those who need it. Sayuri then serves the mother a cup of coffee, then questions her about what happened to the child. The mother then tells her about the incident. Sayuri asks the girl to show her the scar. Sayuri then asks the mother to point the location on a map, which she does. She then closes her eyes and uses her supernatural powers to envision the moment when the incident happened and even does so in slow motion to see what wounded the child. Sayuri then opens her eyes and states that the bicycle was red, which the girl did not mention, proving to the mother that she possesses supernatural powers. She then explains what happened, and the mother then thanks her.

The scene after that shows a man named Isamu calling his girlfriend Kyoka to inform her that he just earned some money and is to go to the bank to deposit the cash. Shortly afterward, he is mugged in a tunnel and gets his money stolen. He then contemplates suicide as he walks into Extra, which just so happens to be nearby.

Isamu then sits down at a table, where Sayuri offers him coffee and asks him what happened. He then tells her the story and states that the police told him that the money may be irrecoverable. Sayuri then opens the map and tells him to point out the location of the incident. Sayuri then uses her supernatural powers. Afterward, she tells Isamu where the thief lives and tells him to go claim the money. Isamu then doubts that he will get the money back, but Sayuri then explains that the thief is extremely guilty for the crime he committed and that he will return the money. Isamu then thanks her, pays for the coffee and leaves.

The following scene switches to a high school where two girls chat near the sink in a restroom. Suddenly, they then hear someone in one of the stalls say that they want to die in a ghostly manner. The stall door then opens to reveal one of the girls' friends walking out, in doing so leaving the door open. They ask if it is her speaking, but she denies saying anything. The door then closes itself, and the three girls open the door to check if there is anyone in there. After they find no one, they quickly leave, resulting in one of the girls accidentally leaving her phone on the table. They then decide to go to Extra, where they meet Sayuri for the first time. Isamu then walks in to thank Sayuri for helping him get his money back. Sayuri then serves the girls some cake. Just as they try to take photos of it, the third girl notices that she forgot her phone, and the three girls start panicking about how to get it back, as they do not want to go back to the restroom. Sayuri then asks about what happened, and the girls then tell her the story. Sayuri then gives them her business card and tells them to contact her if anything goes wrong, and the girls thank her and leave.

Later that night, the girls then go back to school to reclaim the phone. They grab the phone, then see the door close itself. Scared, they call the number on the business card. Sayuri then runs to the high school, with Isamu following. They then go to the restroom, where Sayuri opens the restroom stall door and makes the ghost show itself, who is then revealed to be a student with a currently scarred face who committed suicide three years ago due to poor grades, and that she was the one who said that she wanted to die, as she saw the living student in the same stall take out an almost identical report card. Sayuri then uses her supernatural powers to send her to her next life.

The next day, Isamu goes with Kyoka to a shop to buy some shoes. Isamu then tells her about the event, though Kyoka ridicules him for "being weird." Isamu then notices Sayuri shopping nearby and tries to get Kyoka to leave. Just as they are about to, Kyoka receives a call telling her that a little girl in their family has disappeared. Isamu then gets Sayuri's help and the little girl is found successfully. Kyoka is then happy that the little girl has been found, but feels uneasy about Sayuri's powers.

Later, Isamu asks about Sayuri's origins. Sayuri then reveals that she was helped after collapsing next to Extra, and was given some books regarding exorcism—which are actual books by Happy Science–which improved her confidence. Afterward, she offers Isamu the opportunity to help her. They then walk out, continuing to chat. It is then revealed that Kyoka is jealously staring at the pair, with another woman lurking behind her. Later, a regular customer notifies her about it.

Sometime later, Kyoka goes for an audition, which she fails at, along with another actress, who was also the woman lurking behind her. Disappointed, she goes out with her friends, who make flattering comments about Isamu, which annoys her even further. Later, the other model requests that they talk at a nearby café. As they talk, the other model tells her to tell Isamu to stay away from Sayuri out of fear that she may be using witchcraft to steal him from Kyoka, as the audience sees her glitch.

Later, Kyoka and Isamu have a minor argument regarding his spending time with Sayuri, in which Kyoka demanded that he show her their chat history, only to find very generic conversations. She then tells him to stay away from Sayuri, which he laughs off. Meanwhile, Sayuri performs more exorcisms, even summoning the dead and expelling evil spirits. That night, the actress, who is actually a demon, enters her dreams and tries to convince her to give up her exorcism, only to fail.

One night, Kyoka sends an angry text. As she does so, the demon starts possessing her as she calls Isamu. She then tries to read a sutra to repel the demon, but is possessed before she manages to pick it up. She then rushes out and attempts to kill her mother. Afterward, she then runs to the rooftop as instructed by the demon and attempts to commit suicide, as her mother attempts to hold her back. Isamu then arrives and manages to help Kyoka's mother lift her onto her bed and restrain her, as Isamu calls Sayuri.

Back at Extra, Sayuri receives the phone call and quickly leaves Extra. She then goes to Kyoka's apartment and expels the demon, and in the morning, she and Kyoka reconcile.

The next day, the three chat at Extra. Two people then come in to ask for Sayuri's help, and the camera then pans to a shot of the original book on a bookshelf.

After entering a portal into the nowhere, the delver Spensa had come into contact with gives her a choice to enter the nowhere or return to her home. She chooses to enter the nowhere, believing as she is that she cannot give her friends the advantage they need over the Superiority. Spensa emerges at the edge of the nowhere where it crosses over into her universe, the "somewhere", and finds that many areas of land called "fragments" surround the center of the nowhere, which is a luminous sun called the lightburst. She quickly gains the help of Chet Starfinder, a human explorer who has been in the nowhere for 170 years, and deduces that he is actually Commander Spears, M-Bot's previous owner.

The nowhere is occupied by rival pirate gangs controlling areas of fragments, and as Spensa, M-Bot, and Chet traverse different fragments containing diverse environments, they hope to cross through the pirate lands into No Man's Land, the area surrounding the lightburst. Spensa, who was told to follow the "Path of Elders" by her delver ally, journeys with Chet to find different portal stones placed throughout fragments. Through the first few portals, she and Chet learn through memories that being cytonic was actually a mutation caused by the nowhere and somewhere overlapping, and that the fragments were formed as a result of this overlap. They witness various species conversing with one another throughout time by entering the nowhere, which was what allowed humans to visit other species and eventually led to the human wars.

While she sleeps, Spensa is able to commune with Jorgen and eavesdrop on Winzik and Brade, who she finds successfully making a deal with the delvers to assert the Superiority's authority in exchange for killing all the cytonics.

Spensa begins to lose her memory and sense of time as a result of being in the nowhere and only remembers her identity because she has an "icon" resembling her father's pin and memory dust. She is caught trying to steal a ship by the Broadsiders pirate organization and becomes one of their members. Spensa starfights a mysterious figure from the Cannonades, a rival pirate gang, and becomes the pirate champion. She also discovers that the Cannonade's representative is actually Hesho, who has completely lost his memory.

The delvers attack Spensa by inhabiting the minds of beings unable to resist their control and sending destroyed buildings through the nowhere, but she manages to evade them and lead the pirates to Surehold, the superiority center for mining acclivity stone. There, she and Chet view a memory of Jason Write, the first human to discover he was cytonic and learn that the secrets of the delvers can be found in the lightburst. Spensa is faced with a choice to stay with the pirates and keep the delvers' attention or help her friends on Detritus, and ultimately chooses to return home. She, Chet, M-Bot and Hesho fly towards the lightburst while the delvers try to stop them from discovering the final memory and using the portal to escape the nowhere.

Chet reveals that he is actually the delver Spensa reformed, and distracts the delvers, allowing Spensa to escape. They also view the final memory, which reveals that delvers are actually a form of artificial intelligence that duplicated themselves an infinite number of times to form monstrous beings, all to repress strong emotions at seeing Write and other humans they loved die. M-Bot sacrifices himself to the delvers, which gives Spensa the final boost to leave the nowhere. Chet merges with Spensa, and she gains his memories. Doomslug, who can change her shape, is revealed to be Spensa's icon who was surreptitiously helping her all along.

With Doomslug's help, Spensa finally teleports to Detritus with Hesho only to find Jorgen as the new Admiral of the DDF and Detritus rotating around another planet.

U.S. Marine Malik Khan has two young boys, Jay and Bobby. At home, Jay and Bobby are living with their mother Piya and their mother's new partner, Dylan. Piya has been feeling sick recently, and Dylan ominously tells them it is 'a bug'.

One night, Malik appears at their house, wakes up his two sons, and urgently tells them that they are going on a road trip. While on the road with his boys, Malik passes a police car and tells his boys to get down. Hours later, Malik is pulled over by a different cop. Though Malik is polite, the cop is hostile and aggressive, and Malik sees something shifting behind his eyes. Malik determines the cop has been infected by a parasitic organism from another planet. Malik wrestles the gun away from the cop, knocks him out, and leaves him in the street.

Back on the road, Malik confesses to his boys that this is not a road trip, but a rescue mission. He says that an alien parasite has taken over the planet and that their mother has been infected. As much as half the population may be infected by this alien parasite, which is using human bodies to reproduce. Malik needs to get his boys to safety and says they can protect themselves from the parasites with bug spray.

In a grocery store, Jay starts to question Malik's story. Later, Malik learns his boys' mother is pregnant after his sons say Piya has been getting sick in the morning and having weird food cravings.

Hattie speaks to a former Marine friend of Malik's, who describes the assault incident that caused Malik to get dishonorably discharged from the Marine Corps. While describing how terrible the conditions were, he mentions that they were "getting eaten alive by bugs" and then found bodies of children in the wreckage. This incident caused Malik to snap. Hattie deduces that Malik is suffering from a mental disorder.

Jay begins to suspect the aliens are not real when his father sees hundreds of meteors in the sky that Jay does not see. After they get a flat tire, Malik tries to steal a car but gets in an altercation with an old man who is the owner of the car. Malik gets away, gravely wounding the man, but is injured. Malik teaches Jay how to drive in order to get them to safety. While Malik sleeps off his injury in an abandoned house, Jay drives to get his father medicine and food. Jay overhears on the radio that his father is a wanted man for kidnapping his two children. Back at the abandoned house, Jay confronts his father. Malik admits that he lied, that he was in prison for two years, and that his brain has been playing tricks on him.

The sons of the man Malik attacked track him down. The men kidnap Bobby and attempt to perform a citizen's arrest. Almost immediately, they open fire on Malik and Jay. Malik manages to apprehend both men without killing them and escapes with his boys.

Malik calls his ex-wife and gives her an address of a diner where he will leave the boys, telling her he will not go back to prison. However, while the police and helicopters start chasing his car, Malik realizes Jay has hidden in the back seat. Jay refuses to leave his dad behind, even after an hours-long standoff with the police. Hattie insists to Malik that the authorities will take his mental health into consideration when deciding his fate, but Malik does not believe her.

Not wanting to lose his father, Jay runs out of the car and points a gun at the police. Malik tries to distract the police to save his son, and then convinces him to put the gun down and run to him. They embrace, with the police lowering their weapons.

Tom, a young teacher, is preparing for his first day of teaching. As he nervously rehearses what he's going to say, he turns on ''Schoolhouse Rock!'' Soon, personifications of his emotions appear. There's George – the romantic facet, Dori – the goofy facet, Shulie – the sweet aspect, Joe – the cool facet, and Dina – the mature facet. They intend to teach him so he's ready for his job.

In their first lesson to him, they cover grammar ("Verb: That's What's Happening"). They tell him that they represent anywhere he has been, each person he has recognized and met ("A Noun Is A Person, Place Or Thing"). They help Tom realize that teaching is as easy as counting to three ("Three Is a Magic Number"). Tom thinks he is hallucinating and tries to get rid of them, but he realizes that he needs them ("Mother Necessity"). They encourage Tom to remember that he wants to be a teacher because both his grandmother and her mother were teachers. In their lifetimes, teaching was one of the few job opportunities open to women ("Sufferin' 'til Suffrage"). He also remembers working at his grandfather's hardware store as a child and sneaking away on Saturday mornings to watch ''Schoolhouse Rock!'', which taught him about adverbs ("Lolly, Lolly, Lolly") and adjectives ("Unpack Your Adjectives"). But Tom has to teach more than that – math, science and social studies ("Just a Bill" / "The Preamble"). By revisiting these moments from his childhood and getting caught up in them, Tom remembers that learning can be fun ("Ready or Not, Here I Come").

When the gang becomes exhausted from all of the excitement, Tom encourages them to stay active ("Do the Circulation"). Joe is ready to do a song about pronouns, but he needs some help from the group ("Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla"). Shulie plays Tom's guitar; the instrument is shaped like a figure eight, which inspires her to remember how Tom learned multiplication tables ("Figure Eight"). Next, George gives a physics lesson using rock and roll ("A Victim of Gravity"). Staying on the math and science track, George and Shulie introduce a hero who changed counting forever ("Zero, My Hero").

Although they have covered many parts of speech, Tom remembers one that they have left out, conjunctions ("Conjunction Junction"). Joe reminds Tom that school will be a very important transition to America for many of his students who are not native English speakers, just as America went through an important transition as it expanded ("Great American Melting Pot / Elbow Room"). Shulie teaches a lesson about space ("Interplanet Janet") and the thought of going to the moon gets the whole group energized. They use words that properly express the energy they are feeling ("Interjections"). Tom thanks everyone for helping him. He has one last song for them about sentence structure ("The Tale of Mr. Morton"). As the song ends, all of the characters are gathered around Tom as if he were teaching. He asks if there are any questions, and a student's hand goes up.

The film is set during the Second World War in a German concentration camp.

A Jewish man (Gilles) tells the commandant that he had a mother from Belgium and a father from Iran. The deputy commandant is intrigued and asks to be taught Persian, but the man is lying and he cannot speak Persian. However the claim earns him a place in the kitchen performing light duties, an enviable position, where the guards are mainly female, but arguably more cruel than the male guards (the main female character Elsa is modelled on the true-life character Elsa Ehrich)

The deputy commandant wishes to learn four words per day. Guessing the war will last two more years he hopes to learn 2,000 words. He hopes to visit Tehran when the war is over. One of the junior guards warns the commandant that the man is simply a Jew.

The deputy commandant gives him a list of 40 words to translate, but no pencil. He must come to his office later and the commandant will write them down. He escapes when taking out slop from the kitchen and meets a French man in a wood (this is not explained) who advises him to return, which he does. Before he writes the 40 words he is asked to neatly record in a ledger the names of prisoners dying en route to the camp. This seems to be to disguise any future investigation which may discover the deputy commandant's writing style. Gilles sees a way of using the ledger as an aid memoir to remember the 40 words, using sections of the names of the dead. This works and he can recite all 40 words without the list as he still has the ledger in front of him.

Gilles has to serve a group of officers tomato soup in the woods near the camp. Here he makes his first mistake saying that the word "radz" means "tree", but he already used this word to mean "bread". Koch beats him badly, suspecting a lie. Gilles pleads that tree and bread are the same word. The next day he is sent to work in the stone quarry instead of the kitchen: a back-breaking task.

On the second day at the quarry he collapses and is taken back to the camp by a Kapo. In hospital he admits to the doctor that he made up the language, after he was mumbling his invented words in his fever.

On recovery Koch apologises to him and says he over-reacted.

Other officers complain of Koch's behaviour and want one of the female guards reinstating as book-keeper. He has to meet the commandant to explain. He says he knows who is spreading the rumours and he says that the same officer spreads rumours that the commandant has a small penis.

The lessons become more complicated when he is asked to explain short sentences and grammar. Koch explains he dreamed of being a chef, but he ended up in charge of the kitchens in the concentration camp.

While Gilles is out in the countryside gleaning in fields (collecting leftover crops after harvest), a female officer does the book-keeping. Gilles' trick is almost revealed when she leaves a ruler in the ledger leaving only the pseudo-Persian words exposed. Elsa, who is not well-liked, is re-posted to the Russian front.

Gilles starts to struggle to find new words. He asks the prisoners queuing for soup their names and uses sections to make new words. Passing these to Koch, Koch describes it as a "wonderful language".

Back on light duties Gilles feels guilty as he sees fellow prisoners being beaten outside.

From what he has learned so far Koch writes a poem in Persian and reads it to Gilles. Gilles truly likes it. Koch asks him to now call him Klaus and gives him extra food rations which he takes for the man he saw beaten earlier. The beaten man's brother says he owes Gilles and will protect him because if Gilles dies then his brother dies.

A new consignment of prisoners contains an English RAF pilot, but it appears he is of Persian descent. He does not speak German. The junior officer Max drags Gilles to the barracks to confront him with the new man but when they get there Gilles' protector has cut his throat so he cannot be confronted. Max guns down the protector. Koch apologises to Gilles that the Persian speaker was killed as it prevented a three-way conversation. Gilles says he is tired of being afraid.

In the barracks Gilles and the beaten man swap coats.

The largest consignment of prisoners is walked to the train station. Over dinner Koch is told his protégé is being loaded on a train and he rushes to rescue him, pulling him out of the group. But the inevitable is fast approaching. The Americans are close. The commandant orders his officers to destroy all records and execute the remaining prisoners. Koch removes Gilles from the barracks, Max follows them but cannot go beyond the security gate. He goes to tell the commandant but he takes no interest as he is busy burning the ledgers.

In the woods Koch and Gilles split. Koch has a small plane waiting 10km away to take him to Istanbul. He wishes Gilles a "good life" in pseudo-Persian.

Koch arrives in Tehran under the name of Marcel Gallant, using a forged Belgian passport. He becomes agitated when customs officials - who state that he is speaking "gibberish" - do not understand his Persian. They suspect he may be German and arrest him after a struggle.

Gilles is interviewed in French by the Americans. They say all the records are destroyed. Gilles says he does not know all the names of the 25,000 to 30,000 who passed through the camp; but he knows the full names of 2,840 people (whom he used to create the pseudo-Persian language), and recites them to the authorities.

A spoiled Iranian screen idol Kourosh Zand (Shahab Hosseini) meets Raha Azimi (Fataneh Malek-Mohammadi), a teenage girl who claims to be his daughter. She moves in with Zand and disrupts his privileged lifestyle.

Harold is a religious fanatic who gives his family, consisting of his wife Betty and teenage daughters Maggie and Sarah, an unknown liquid to drink. After revealing it to be poison, Maggie is the only one to become frightened with the thought of dying, and Harold later reveals it was merely a test of faith for a future suicide pact.

The following day, Harold's family is visited by three men—Fisher, Randy, and Luke—that ask for help replacing a flat tire. After Harold invites them in, he tells them that his family lives several miles away from civilization without a phone. Offering to help, Harold allows the group to stay at his home for another day, but also throws away their beer and criticizes them for using foul language.

At dinner, Fisher establishes himself as the most respectful of the group and tells Harold's family that he is moving to California from Chicago. After asking to use the restroom, Randy sneaks into Harold's room to snoop around. Harold becomes suspicious and searches for Randy before calling for his family, where they find Randy suffering a seizure.

Harold tells the group that their best option is to stay at his place while Randy recovers, and Maggie begins to grow feelings for Fisher. Anxious about the stay, Luke wakes up at night and spots Harold taking a bath with Sarah. In the morning, Luke also finds that Harold lied about having a car and the group uses its tires to fix their vehicle. While doing so, Fisher shows Maggie the inside of the car, where the pair take an instant photograph together that Maggie keeps.

After departing, the group suffers another flat tire and returns to the house. After going on a rant and accusing Harold of molesting Sarah, Luke is kicked out. Before leaving, Sarah hands Luke a bottle of poisoned lemonade and dies after discovering a spike strip that caused both of their car accidents. At home, Maggie notices that Randy has also died.

Maggie finds a note stating that she is from Nebraska. Fisher also finds several photographs of Maggie and Sarah from when they were young, where the pair are with other people. Together, Maggie and Fisher realize that Harold and Betty kidnapped the girls as their own after killing their parents. Inside, Betty overhears Sarah and Harold talking about their intimate relationship, and Fisher discovers Randy's body. Harold arrives and knocks Fisher out with chloroform.

At home, Betty commits suicide. Tied up in a basement, Fisher is rescued by Maggie and the pair share a kiss and try to escape, finding a crucified Randy and Luke, before Fisher is shot and killed by Sarah and also crucified. Burning the bodies, Harold says the group served as a sacrifice for god. Discovering Maggie, Harold decides it is time for his family to complete their suicide pact. After handing his daughters a glass of poisoned wine, Sarah willingly drinks it and dies. Maggie, on the other hand, refuses and sees Harold drink from an unpoisoned glass, before hitting him with the wine bottle. Armed with a handgun, Harold searches for Maggie, who cuts his ankles and slashes his neck. The following morning, Maggie looks across the horizon.

Süleyman Şah, Bey of the Kayı sends his son, Ertuğrul, to ask for land from the Emir of Aleppo. This is made almost impossible when the Kayı are put in a series of problems with the Templars after saving Şehzade Numan, Halime Sultan, and Şehzade Yiğit because of the traitor in the Emir's palace, Nasir, who works for the Templars but is later killed by Ertuğrul and the truth is shown to the Emir.

Towards the end of the season, Kurdoğlu is beheaded, Ertuğrul successfully defeats the Templars and captures their castle, and Selcan repents. This is followed by Süleyman Şah's death and the tribe's migration to Erzurum as part of Süleyman Şah's will before he died.

Long ago, a race of colorful extraterrestrials known as Klepts became greedy and plundered their home planet of its resources. Their color faded away, and they set off into outer space, moving from galaxy to galaxy and stealing whatever they could. The leader of the Klepts, known as Supreme Leader Z, decides to steal all of the "stuff" on the planet Earth. Her plan involves building a device dubbed "the Gyrotron", which will eliminate Earth's gravity, on the North Magnetic Pole; objects on the planet will be sent into orbit, where the Klepts' spaceships can collect them. Z sends X, a small Klept, to carry out the mission with a helper robot known as a Semi-Automatic Multi-Tasking Unit (or SAMTU).

X and SAMTU arrive on Earth shortly before Christmas Eve. They land in Christmas Town, where Santa Claus and his elves live. That night, Santa unveils a technologically advanced sleigh meant to help him deliver Christmas presents all around the world more quickly. However, the sleigh malfunctions, and Santa instructs Obie, his lead elf mechanic, to fix it. Obie's time spent working on the sleigh has kept him from spending time with his daughter Holly and her mother Noelle, much to Holly's disappointment.

In an ice cave, X directs SAMTU to build the Gyrotron. Driven by an urge to steal, X ventures into Christmas Town, where he encounters Obie. X plays dead, leading Obie to believe him to be an inanimate doll. Obie gives X to Holly as a gift. The next day, Holly keeps X with her as she decorates with her mother, goes caroling, and attends a Christmas dinner, causing X to witness the elves' kindness and generosity towards one another. At night, X tries to escape Holly's home with a bag of stolen items, but Holly sees him attempting to do so. She gives X a puppy as a companion; the act of being given something fills X with feelings of compassion and warmth, and causes him to regain his blue color.

X decides not to follow through with Supreme Leader Z's plan, and instead reprograms SAMTU to fix Santa's sleigh. However, Z orders the other Klepts to invade Christmas Town. The Klepts activate the Gyrotron, but SAMTU manages to destroy the machine, electrocuting itself in the process. Nonetheless, the Klepts triumph over the residents of Christmas Town. Z, believing that X gained the Earthlings' trust in order to lead the Klepts to their "stuff", promotes him to Vice Supreme Leader. Feeling distraught, X hands the puppy to Z as a gift, causing her to regain her pink color. The residents of Christmas Town give presents to the other Klepts, restoring them to their colorful selves.

At the break of dawn on Christmas morning, Santa laments that there is not enough time left to deliver Christmas gifts to all the children of the world. X takes to the sky with a number of other Klepts in spaceships, traveling around the planet and delivering the presents as Santa wished.

Con artist and fixer Teddy Murretto is on the run in a stolen unmarked police car, which breaks down not far from a Nevada casino. In the midst of a brawl outside the casino, Murretto sucker-punches rookie police officer Valerie Young so that she will jail him and protect him from his pursuers. One of those pursuers, hitman Bob Viddick, gets himself incarcerated in the same small-town jail by pretending to be drunk and crashing a car into the police car Murretto had abandoned, which was being investigated by two state troopers.

Murretto and Viddick are placed in separate cells, initially thwarting Viddick's plan to kill Murretto. However, Viddick has planted a small incendiary device at the station's entrance and when it ignites and the fire alarm goes off, he takes advantage of the confusion. Viddick beats a drunken man sharing his cell and incapacitates the police sergeant, stealing his gun. He is about to kill Murretto when Young interrupts him and returns him to his cell.

Young, determined to find out the truth, finally gets Murretto to explain his story: he was working for a Nevada casino mob boss and tried to buy off the state's attorney general William Fenton. When Fenton didn't cooperate and was brutally killed, it turned out he had recorded his conversations with Murretto. To save his own skin Murretto agreed to work with the FBI, which led the mob boss to send hired killers after him.

While Murretto and Viddick trade threats, a new killer enters the police station—Anthony Lamb, a second hitman hired to kill Murretto. Entering the station with a bouquet of balloons as cover, he quickly murders several police officers. Young discovers the carnage and retreats behind bulletproof glass to the holding cells containing Murretto and Viddick. In a hail of bullets, one of Young's own rounds ricochets and hits her in the abdomen. Corrupt police officer Huber, who has been stealing drugs from the evidence locker and has killed the sergeant during Lamb's shooting spree, reveals his betrayal to Young and joins forces with Lamb as they attempt to break through the wall of the holding cells.

Murretto and Viddick appeal to Young for the keys to their cells. Murretto manages to convince Young to hand him the keys with the promise that he will return with a medical kit for her, to the dismay of Viddick. Young releases him to go after Huber and Lamb. Just as two of Young's fellow officers are shot by Lamb after they catch him and Huber trying to break through the wall, Murretto arrives on the scene and attacks Lamb and Huber. In a steam-filled shower room Lamb shoots Huber by mistake while himself being stalked by Murretto. Meanwhile Viddick shows up (having finally convinced Young to release him too), stabs Lamb and offers Murretto the chance to kill Lamb and avenge the death of his ex and son. Murretto instead shoots both Viddick and Lamb. Murretto returns to the battered doors of the holding cells seemingly to check on Young but instead pours gasoline all over the room, intending to light the entire station on fire and leave the scene, revealing his true nature.

Just as Murretto is about to leave he is confronted by Young, who has meanwhile attended to her gunshot wound. She threatens to put him back in his cell, but Murretto kicks a gasoline bottle and shoots it, lighting the place on fire. Young engages in an intense gunfight with Murretto and is finally about to shoot him, when another corrupt cop (Detective Deena Schier, the investigating officer on the Fenton case) arrives and shoots her instead. Deena is promptly shot by Viddick, who then also shoots Murretto to complete his contract. Viddick then helps Young to safety outside while advising her to “let it go” and then escapes in a police car.

While being taken away by ambulance, Young gets a radio dispatch about a stolen police vehicle from the station. She leaves the paramedics by the wayside, hijacks the ambulance and drives off in pursuit of Viddick, with both singing along with the same song on their vehicles' radios.

"''Run the World'' is the story of a group of Black women – vibrant, fiercely loyal best friends – who work, live and play in Harlem as they strive for world domination. At its core, it's an unapologetically female show about enviable friendship and not only surviving – but thriving together."

''Chernobyl'' is a novel in which the characters must choose between accepting substandard materials or delaying an already overdue reactor schedule.

''Bronwyn's Bane'' is a novel in which a cursed princess who is unable to tell the truth goes on a quest.

''Shade of the Tree'' is a novel in which a rustic horror story involves a ghost.

The novel is set in a dystopian future. Glass domes have been erected over the major cities in the US, and eventually, some twenty years ago, the cities have been evacuated and closed, ostensibly because pollution and diseases have turned them into a health hazard. People live in sterile suburb-like settlements called tracts, each centered around a mall, offices where the residents work, and an underground railway station. A healthy lifestyle with diets, workout programs, and eight hours of sleep is enforced by authorities. Cars are electric; combustion engines are banned. Even the weather is controlled so that rain falls only during the nightly curfew.

Only three of the cities, among them New York, are temporarily reopened to visitors each summer, albeit with restrictions to counter health risks: stays are limited to two weeks, minors must be accompanied by a legal guardian, and all visitors must undergo decontamination (including a lung-cleansing machine and disposal of all clothes worn in the city) when leaving. Nonetheless, the cities are popular (yet expensive) destinations for party travelers, not least because of the “adult” fun found there: movie theaters showing real murder films (movie theaters do not exist outside, and graphic content on TV is severely restricted), or “bedicabs”, cabs in which prostitutes offer their services during the ride.

The protagonist, 16-year-old Ron Morgan, lives in one of the tracts in Vermont. He has just finished school and scored exceptionally well in his National Exams. Following an argument with his father about his career (Ron would like to go into science and technology, while his father insists he major in business), and being generally bored by life in the tracts, Ron decides to secretly leave for New York City, which he has visited with his father the summer before.

On his first day in New York, Ron meets a girl named Sylvia and is immediately attracted to her. To his surprise, she tells him she was born in New York City and lives there all year. The two are threatened by a youth named Dino, but Ron manages to defeat him. However, Dino intercepts Ron and beats him unconscious when he leaves his hotel room at night to look for Sylvia, whom he believes to be in danger.

Ron eventually finds himself inside a run-down building, which is the hiding place of the gang Sylvia and Dino are both part of. His ID, cash, credit card, and keys have been stolen from him, presumably by Dino. It is the last day before New York closes, but Ron cannot leave without his ID, as police would mistake him for a gang kid and jail him. Sylvia offers him a bottle of juice laced with a drug, causing Ron to pass out and miss the deadline. As he is forced to stay in the city until the next summer, Sylvia suggests he get accepted into their gang, called the Gramercy gang. Their leader, Al, is initially reluctant but agrees when he discovers Ron’s ability to repair things. As resources are scarce, this is a much-needed skill that can even be sold to rival gangs as part of a ceasefire agreement.

Ron learns about the circumstances leading to the closure of the city and its residents: After the dome was built to contain pollution, conflicts and rife corruption led to a deterioration of the conditions in the city. When health authorities predicted that everybody in New York City would die within a year, residents started fleeing in masses and riots broke out. Whoever had not left the city was presumed dead, including some 2,000 people still living there. Being essentially illegal residents, they cannot get regular jobs or receive social welfare and rely on petty crime or black market trade to survive.

The population now consists of three major groups: there are several white gangs like the Gramercy gang in the city, each occupying a different territory. Police leave with the tourists when the city closes, and the gangs rule the city. Until a ceasefire agreement was recently reached, violent attacks between them were common, usually to get food, money, or other scarce resources, or just to take revenge for a past attack. Presumably because of that, hardly anyone in the gangs lives past their twenties. Besides, there is a “super-gang”, called the Muslims, in the northern part of the city. Despite the name of the gang, many of its members are indeed Latinos or black but not actually Muslims. Being united rather than split up into many rival gangs, they are somewhat better off, and some Muslims live past age 30. Beyond the gangs, there is also the black market, the only place where older people are found.

Ron befriends Dewey, a marketeer at the black market from whom he occasionally needs to purchase tools and spare parts. Dewey offers Ron shelter as the Muslims appear at the black market and later clash with some white gangs. Although the Gramercy gang has been spared, Dino wants to retaliate against the Muslims but most of the other gang members, including Al, are against it. Dino leaves the gang in anger, but not without beating up Sylvia after she refuses to come with him.

As winter approaches and food and money get scarce, the white gangs begin attacking each other again. One night the Chelsea gang, with the help of Dino, mounts a surprise attack on the Gramercy headquarters. The gang’s headquarters are looted and burned out. Al is among the victims of the attack, and Dino claims Sylvia as his girl. Ron is captured but is soon freed by the Muslims, who have heard from Dewey that Ron has skills they need. While doing repairs for the Muslims and training some of their members, Ron learns that Timmy Jim, their leader, plans to unite all the gangs in New York, whites and Muslims, and attack the tracts outside in some five years.

One spring day Sylvia appears, revealing that Dino is dead and returning Ron the keys, credit card, and ID that Dino had taken from him. Ron begins to realize that there is no way for him to take Sylvia out of the city with him, which he had planned to do from the beginning.

After the city has reopened, Ron manages to escape and checks into a hotel room to take a bath and get new clothes. Timmy Jim finds him and tries to hold him back, but Ron faces him with the decision to kill him or let him go, as he has repaid his debt to Timmy Jim for saving him from the Chelsea gang by training about a hundred young Muslims. Timmy Jim reveals to Ron that the real reason for evacuating New York was to get rid of non-white poverty: whites were allowed out, whether rich or poor, but non-whites were forcefully prevented from leaving and eventually declared dead. He says nobody outside will believe Ron’s warnings of an impending attack by the gangs of New York but promises the attack will happen. Eventually, Timmy Jim sympathizes with Ron and lets him go. But Ron has realized that he has not regained freedom, but is just about to return into another world, with its own way of slavery. He resolves to open people’s eyes to the misery in which the people in New York are living and fight the system that is letting it happen.

During the Battle of Mosul, three Mosuli policemen arrest ISIS drug smugglers. However, they are soon overrun by ISIS and run out of ammo while defending themselves inside a cafe building. One of the police officers, Kawa, a 21 year old Kurd recently enlisted as a police officer, loses his uncle during the gunfight. The Nineveh Swat Team, while going on a mission of their own, find the stranded police officers and save them from the ISIS group, as well as execute the drug smugglers. The Nineveh SWAT Team, a police division made up of men native to Mosul who lost family members to ISIS and led by Commander Major Jasem, offers Kawa to join them since he lost his uncle to ISIS and is thus eligible to become part of their team. He accepts, while his partner, the other police officer named Jameel, offers to take Kawa's uncle's body for burial.

The SWAT team continue their mission. Kawa repeatedly asks about their mission objective but is always ignored. While resting inside an abandoned building, Kawa and Jasem notice Kawa's previous partner, Jameel, returning and signalling to an ISIS car bomber the location of the SWAT team. Tomahawk, one of the SWAT team members, dies during the bomb blast. Commander Jasem gives Tomahawk's axe to Kawa. As they take the body of their fallen SWAT member for burial, Kawa grows repeatedly frustrated as no one answers his questions and no one trusts him while Hooka accuses him of being a traitor's partner.

While crossing into the ISIS-held part of Mosul, the SWAT team and the surrounding civilians come under fire from ISIS gunmen shooting from a rooftop and Hooka is killed. As the SWAT team clear the rooftop and plan their next course of action, an explosive-laden drone targets one of the SWAT men's Humvees. A second explosive-laden drone is shot down by an Iranian Special Forces Operative Colonel, Isfahani, who is commanding the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) in Mosul. He offers SWAT AK-47 ammo to the team in exchange for cigarette cartons. As the SWAT men meet with the PMF and Jasem barters with Isfahani, Jasem realizes that one of the PMF's prisoners is Kawa's partner Jameel. Jameel explains that he was captured by the ISIS group and threatened with the assassination of his grandson in Michigan unless he informs them of the SWAT team's location. Tensions between SWAT and the PMF rise rapidly when Jasem and Ishfahani argue on what to do with Jameel, but Kawa uses the axe he was given and kills Jameel, de-escalating the situation. Waleed then exchanges Hooka's hookah for an RPG with a single rocket, intending to attack an ISIS camp they've seen earlier from the rooftop.

As they leave, Commander Jasem explains to Kawa that his SWAT team have gone against his superiors' command in the Police to not undergo this mission; he begins to answer Kawa's repeated questions about the mission. However, Kawa stops him and informs him he doesn't want to know anymore and that he'll just follow Jasem's commands. The SWAT team continue their mission and reach a road block, which forces them to fight outside their Humvees. Youness is accidentally killed by friendly fire, while Kawa gets injured by a friendly fire grenade and gets facially disfigured and is covered with a balaclava. As the team proceed by foot and enter a building, Razak is killed in close quarter combat and Sinan sustains a stab wound.

The SWAT team proceed to attack the ISIS camp and Akram dies after being shot. As they're securing the ISIS camp, Jasem, who has a habit of cleaning trash from any area he is in despite its destruction, accidentally triggers an ISIS booby trap and is killed. With the death of their commander, the SWAT team suffer great morale loss. However, Kawa succeeds in reminding them of their mission. Waleed leads the remainder of the SWAT group, now down to 6 members, into an apartment complex where he uses a spare key he had hidden in his shoe to open an apartment door. He kills an ISIS member who has taken Waleed's wife Hayat along with her daughter Dunya for forced marriage.

Kawa finally understands the objective of the SWAT mission, learning that the group had been carrying missions to liberate members of their families captured by ISIS. As he learns that Amir's son is close to their location, he asks how far.

Devastated after the death of a friend, a young woman (Deragh Campbell) attempts to extract meaning from this intense loss as she discovers signs in her daily life and through encounters with the art of Hilma af Klint and Wassily Kandinsky. Borrowing its title from Kandinsky’s 1926 book, Point and Line to Plane portrays the phenomenon of magical thinking endured during an individual’s journey to process, heal and document a period of mourning. As the woman peers deeper into the invisible, the resurrecting potential of perception helps illuminate the power of how we choose to look and, moreover, how we see.

A violent storm blusters around the island of Heligoland and cuts off the island from the rest of the world. Linda, a 24-year-old cartoonist, is temporarily staying on the island. She is threatened by her ex-boyfriend Danny, who is stalking her. Once again in a situation where she feels like she needs to flee from him, she falls down an embankment while fleeing and comes across a corpse on the beach.

At the same time, Prof. Dr. Paul Herzfeld, a medical examiner working for the Federal Criminal Police Office, is engaged in an autopsy at the Charité University Hospital in Berlin. He finds a capsule in the head of a female corpse whose jaw is missing. The capsule contains a small slip of paper with the cell phone number of his 17-year-old daughter Hannah, whom he rarely sees since separating from her mother. He calls the number and has to find out that his daughter has been kidnapped. He is told to wait for more information which he will get from a man called Erik. Mr. Herzfeld is advised not to call the police if he does not want to risk the life of his daughter.

While Linda is standing next to the corpse, the mobile phone of the dead man found on Heligoland, rings. She answers the call and talks to Mr. Herzfeld. She explains that he cannot come to Heligoland because of the storm. He tells Linda to search for Ender Müller, who is a friend of his and the caretaker in the local hospital. The two of them should bring the corpse to the autopsy room. At the same time, Mr. Herzfeld and his new trainee Ingolf von Appen begin their journey to Cuxhaven in von Appen's car. The trainee became rich by selling his website which he had invented by the age of 14 but working in forensic medicine is not one of his strengths. During the ride, he urges Linda on the phone to examine the corpse she found on the beach.

Linda, who is disgusted and a vegetarian, only approves of an external necropsy, which she performs following Herzfeld's instructions, while Ender tries to lighten the mood with jokes. However, when she finds a yellow object in the corpse's throat and is asked to cut the throat open, she resists the request. Only after talking to Herzfeld about her ex-boyfriend Danny, she changes her mind. The object turns out to be the plastic capsule of a Kinder Surprise and contains a photograph depicting the retired judge Friedericke Töven who lives on Heligoland. According to Jens Marinek, she once passed a too lenient sentence on Sadler, who had raped Marinek's only daughter who was underaged and later committed suicide because of Sadler. Herzfeld and Marinek were colleagues and friends at that time. At the time, Marinek had urged Herzfeld to give a false testimony so that Sadler got a tougher punishment, though Herzfeld refused to.

Linda and Ender break into Töven's house in Heligoland and find a woman's corpse there, which they also bring to the autopsy room. Meanwhile, Herzfeld and his intern have reached the secluded house of his colleague, Jens Marinek. There, next to a dead pig, they find evidence relating to the sadist Jan Erik Salder, the man who is holding Hannah captive. During the search for clues, Ingolf falls into a frozen lake near the house, though he is saved by Herzfeld.

Ender wants to secure the electricity supply at the Heligoland clinic, and comes back to the autopsy room, in which Linda has locked herself, with a knife in his shoulder. A block of wood sticks out of Töven's rectum. Herzfeld has seen equivalent images in a video. There are numbers on the wooden block, which Linda forwards on via her phone. They are geo-coordinates which lead Herzfeld and his trainee into a forest. There, Herzfeld is overpowered by Marinek, who shoots himself after swallowing a memory chip. Herzfeld gets it out and sees a video on it showing the boss of a moving company Philipp Schwintowski.

Not only Marinek's daughter Lily but also Schwintowski's daughter Rebecca had been abducted by Sadler. In desperation, both of them had committed suicide after being raped by him. Marinek and Schwintowski decided to take justice into their own hands. They arranged for Hannah's abduction because in their eyes Herzfeld, as part of the justice system, was also responsible for the death of their daughters.

In the forest, Herzfeld deliberately causes a car accident to alarm a rescue helicopter via the car's automatic emergency call system. The helicopter takes Ingolf and him to Heligoland. When he arrives, he saves Linda and Ender, who had been attacked by Sadler, which left Ender severely injured. Herzfeld recognizes that the dead person found on the beach was Schwintowski. The reference to Alcatraz leads the group to a bunker system under the Lighthouse of Heligoland, that the Nazis once built. There, Herzfeld finds Hannah and rescues her. Sadler is able to hide and escape unnoticed.

Before he flies back in a helicopter with Hannah and the corpses, the forensic doctor thanks Linda and Ingolf for their assistance. As the helicopter is flying over the North Sea, a knife cuts through one of the body bags. Sadler attacks the group before Herzfeld manages to push him out of the helicopter. Sadler is clinging on to the helicopter with his fingers which Herzfeld, after briefly hesitating, cuts off with a knife.
