[music fades]

[Mary] Uh, and so,

as you can see, I'll be joining your team!

I can't wait! Let's get started.

Impossible.

Uh, what? How come?

No way! I had my heart set

and I've decided.

Even if you wanna stay, it's just

not as simple as you think it is.

You're a civilian.

As agents of the Joint Army,

we can't have you tagging along.

[jaunty music plays]

You're not getting rid of me that easily.

Uh

Because, you know.

I just want to accompany this guy.

[grumbles] No! Stop that!

- Jack, I can't believe you!

- What is it now?

[Georg] The girl wants

to come along with us.

Rhys, nothing is going on between us.

What's the harm?

I mean, we will need someone

who's familiar with the Moon to help us

and be our guide, won't we?

- [Inanna] Yes, I slept fine.

- Uh, are you kidding?

[Inanna] Don't ask things in such a weird

way. People might get the wrong idea.

[groans] I'm not sure that we're ready.

[music stops]

[sinister music plays]

[sinister music builds]

[music fades]

[engine runs]

[gasps]

[Zowan] Ever since this video

from Goddard came out,

a ton of info started being posted.

Most of it's been

disinformation and decoys,

except for this one.

- [Osma] The real one?

- [Zowan] No question.

I don't know

why he let himself be seen in Agarum,

but we've located his hideout.

[tense music plays]

[Jack] What the hell happened to you?

I'll have to ask you next time, Phil.

All this information has been shared

with Rhys and the Third HQ in advance.

General Pitter has proposed

we should try combining forces

with the special unit

that is currently stationed in Agarum.

We'll receive more details

once we're on site.

It's easier to move when we're on our own.

I was hoping for that myself,

but Deputy Commander Clemenza

is in Agarum.

Who's that?

The sarcastic man at the briefing.

So this means

that special unit has Clemenza's support.

Anyway, we should hurry.

Yeah, we can't repeat all the mistakes

that we made before at Copernicus.

- [Rhys] Mm.

- [Jack] Mm.

- Inanna? What's wrong?

- [Rhys gasps]

- [body thuds]

- [all gasp]

[all] Inanna?!

[music fades]

[Rhys] This is the VC3 Unit

calling for the Third Headquarters.

This is the VC3 unit.

Third Headquarters, please respond.

Osma, how is she?

Inanna, you think she's gonna be okay?

Osma?

It isn't completely incurable.

But I don't have the facilities

or the drugs to help her.

Although, this is a disease from the Moon

that I've only read about on paper.

Unless we can get her

to a specialized local facility

or a doctor who's been here a long time,

I can't be sure.

That can't be!

[cries] Inanna!

Agarum is pretty far away

from here, though.

We need another plan.

We don't know if her body's

going to hold up until we get there.

And also, we can't be sure that

there's a doctor who can diagnose her.

It's no good. I can't get through.

Damn it! What can

What can we do?

[somber music plays]

I know

I know someone.

Someone who knows this disease very well.

Wait, really? Would you bring us to them?

I can, but Agarum

is in the opposite direction of them.

We would need to head to Posidonius.

We can't, uh, do that.

Stop moving!

You can't push yourself right now.

We're almost done searching.

All that's left lies to the east of here.

Time is running out.

Let's keep moving to Agarum.

We have a mission.

Let's not let our emotions distract us

from our duty. [breathes shallowly]

If we do that, we'll regret it.

- [groans]

- [Zowan] Inanna!

Inanna!

[somber music continues]

Mm.

- [Jack] So, what's the problem?

- Huh?

Nothing can be more important

than helping out a friend.

We agree? So let's prepare to move.

Where was it again? Posidonius?

Hm.

- Yeah.

- [Jack] Hm.

And you know,

when it comes to all the combat stuff,

I could be trying harder.

All right. Let's get moving!

[music fades]

[Rhys] I was just going to leave Inanna

to her fate and head for Agarum.

Do you think that I'm a horrible person?

[Georg] Well, I might [chuckles]

if I didn't know that you were a soldier.

What's that mean?

[laughs]

You know what? I thought that Jack

would've been in lockstep with you.

Uh

I mean it was just a year ago both of you

You had some hatred in your bones

that you couldn't seem to shake.

It seemed like the two of you

would just do anything

to take your revenge on Bob Skylum.

It's really a relief to be honest.

All in all,

maybe he's still the same inside.

Yeah, I guess. [exhales]

He was always like that.

[rock music plays]

TWO DAYS LATER

POSIDONIUS

[Mary] So, just the four of us

will go then?

Does that sound good?

[Mary chuckles]

[Rhys grumbles]

No, it doesn't!

[music stops]

Jack, hurry it up

if you don't wanna be left behind.

Left behind what?

Aren't we still somewhere

in the distribution center?

[jaunty music plays]

TWO HOURS EARLIER

[Mary] Hm, that and that.

- And also some daikon.

- [storekeeper] Got it.

Uh, I'm sorry. One more carrot, please.

Sure thing.

Hey, uh, Mary, are you sure

we really need all this stuff?

We have the money, but still.

It's okay, just leave it to me. Yeah?

And the guy I'm taking you to is so remote

that the hardest part is about to begin.

Well, if Jack is volunteering

to carry most of the luggage,

then I'll have it pretty easy.

[storekeeper] Thank you.

- Huh?

- You can take these too, can't you?

[Jack] Hey!

[Jack strains]

[Georg] Still, though, I never thought

Moon girls would be so forward.

She's so honest about her feelings.

If I were Jack, I definitely

would have fallen for her already.

He can really be a hopeless romantic

in the worst way.

Really? Has she expressed

romantic feelings for Jack?

You are such a square, Osma.

Listen, dude. Mary has some sort

of interest in Jack. We know that.

But as for what she finds

interesting about him,

that remains a mystery among many.

I I think I'm following.

Although I'm not sure I understand.

Regardless, I'm worried about Inanna.

I think I should go after them.

Thinking about it, Inanna can't even move,

so I really should be with them!

[Rhys grunts]

She just can't be honest with herself.

Stands to reason.

Excluding Inanna, they are all prisoners.

[chuckles]

[music stops]

[strains]

Hey, do you really think

I'm that hard to trust?

Uh, no.

That's not it. I'm glad that you're here.

But there are some rules.

Those three are completely forbidden

from leaving the squad on their own.

I see.

Hey, Jack. I won't tell anyone,

but are those bags too heavy for you?

- [Jack groans]

- Uh, uh

Oh, whoa, whoa. Hey, take it easy, okay?

Oh, man.

So jealous.

11 YEARS EARLIER

[whimpers]

[groans]

[tense music plays]

[young Jack grunts]

Rhys, run away! Hurry!

- [young Jack groans]

- [delinquent 1 grunts]

- [delinquent 2 grunts]

- [young Jack groans]

[young Rhys whimpers]

Oh, you're not going anywhere,

Miss Mayor's daughter.

[tense music continues]

- [young Jack groans]

- These brats could walk up outta here.

So why don't you be good

and come in with us nice and quiet?

[whimpers]

[g*n c*ck]

Uh-huh.

You wanna get mad?

Then get mad

at this world that Sapientia created.

Just like we are.

Leave Rhys alone! [grunts]

[delinquent 2] Hm. [grunts]

- How is this brat still able to move?

- Looks like he wants to die.

Leave him alone!

[tense music continues]

[yells]

[screams in pain]

- sh*t-a*s!

- Get outta here, punk!

[gasps] Jack!

You think you're hot sh*t, huh?

You're nothing!

What do you think

you're doing to young Jack?!

Huh?

Harry?

- [Harry grunts]

- [groans]

[delinquents groan]

[Harry grunts]

Argh! Hooligans! [grunts]

Don't think you'll be leaving

in one piece.

Not after harming young Jack!

- [young Jack chuckles]

- [Harry] You nitwit! You listening? Huh?!

[Rhys] Jack! Jack!

[music stops]

[young Rhys] What were you thinking? Jack,

how could you do something so reckless?

Those guys were about to k*ll you!

[game beeps]

Hm. Oh, come on, Rhys. Why are you mad?

Doing something to help a friend.

Nothing in the world is more important.

Huh?

Hm. Hm.

You put up this tough guy front.

Hm. Stupid!

What the heck?

Why are you yelling at me?

[Rhys] In the end,

he really hasn't changed at all.

[Zowan gasps]

Company.

And it's not just one.

[ominous music plays]

[music fades]

Hey, it's been a while!

Kevin!

Mary? Damn.

Reporting in.

[jaunty music plays]

- [woman laughs] This is so cute!

- [man] Whoa, look at this!

- [woman] Oh my God! Mine!

- [man] Let me see.

- Let me have that.

- [woman] No, I called it!

How come a man like you

wants a doll anyway?

- [man grunts]

- No, let go!

- Is that what people call candy?

- Yeah, something like that.

Her symptoms have gone down a bit.

She's doing just fine now.

Thank goodness! Did you hear that, Inanna?

Mm. Mm.

Inanna!

Your face is looking so much better.

Rhys.

Sorry I slowed us all down.

I put the entire mission in jeopardy.

Really, I'm so, so sorry.

Don't worry about it. It's okay.

[music stops]

Kidding me?

I see you after this long

and you've got me playing with fire.

Earth people, right? These guys.

Sorry about that. You were the person

I could count on the most.

[clears throat]

I suppose they did bring some good

essential supplies for us though.

Given that, I guess we're even.

[giggles]

So, then, are you

still trying to find him?

Philiosio.

Uh

Mm-hmm.

Gotcha.

You really never change.

Hey, one more thing.

That disease Inanna had

was something unnatural.

I'm not sure what it was.

Uh

[Kevin] I took these from her suit's

life support system. EKG waveforms.

Judging from these readings,

it's safe to say

she was infected three days ago.

And then symptoms began appearing

two days ago.

Natural bacteria has nowhere near

that level of progression speed.

That means she

I think it's a pretty safe bet

that somebody injected her artificially.

It's not something

you'd be likely to pick up

unless you live doubting people

the way I do.

Whoever could be the one behind this, just

be careful.

Hey, you're supposed to be recovering.

You need to be resting.

[Zowan] Nope. If we stick around much

longer, it might cause you some trouble.

We're gonna be okay.

You've done a lot for us, doctor.

I can't thank you enough.

Yes, Doctor Kevin.

Thank you for your help.

Mm.

Ugh! I really despise you Earth people

coming around here, you know?

Never come back here.

[Zowan chuckles]

I hope you find him.

That as*h*le.

SEA OF CRISES

AGARUM CITY

[intriguing music plays]

It happened like Whiz said it would.

I never imagined

Sapientia outwitting us like this.

[intriguing music continues]

Hey, Rhys.

[Rhys] Mm.

I'm sorry. I know that I really put you

in a tight spot back there.

Don't apologize for that.

I am very used to that with you.

Oh.

[tense music plays]

- Uh, Jack?

- Mm?

There was one thing. It was important.

I've decided

I think that from now on,

I should start to be a little more honest

about my feelings with people.

Gotcha.

[chuckles softly]

[suspenseful music plays]

[Georg] At least

we've gained some time back.

Even though it was a mole hunt.

Sapientia's approach can be ruthless.

[dramatic music plays]

[Inanna] I hope he's gonna be okay.

[dramatic music continues]

[Wise laughs]

[Wise] So this is the price

we have to pay for evolution.

Or are we all being tested?

What do you think, Lunar King Wise?
