[00:31] ---
    I'm back!
[00:33] ---
    I bought you some Burger Queen!
[00:40] ---
    What's wrong?
[00:42] ---
    O-Oh, nothing...
[00:48] ---
    Don't you think it's time you explain
    how you got those injuries?
[00:57] ---
    Talk about surprising, though.
[00:59] ---
    Being sent back to West Genetics because
    the E-Pandora lab can't treat you...
[01:09] ---
    Did Elizabeth Mably plan on this?
[01:15] ---
    Go cool down outside.
[01:20] ---
    No, that's ridiculous.
[01:22] ---
    At least this means we
    finally get to be all alone again.
[01:26] ---
    Huh?
[01:28] ---
    It's been so long it's kind of
    embarrassing, huh? Being alone like this...
[01:33] ---
    Alone...?
[01:37] ---
    Is something wrong?
[01:38] ---
    Oh... Uhh...!
[01:40] ---
    I-It's nothing.
[01:54] ---
    Gate A8. Let's hurry.
[02:14] ---
    Stop, Kazuya.
[02:16] ---
    Huh?
[02:23] ---
    Take me there.
[02:24] ---
    Huh? Gate 12?
[02:28] ---
    B-But that goes to Bali!
[02:36] ---
    W-Wait, Satelli, ma'am!
[02:38] ---
    That's against the rules!
[02:41] ---
    We're supposed to go to Japan!
[02:51] ---
    AVENGE WORLD!!
[03:07] ---
    To protect someone is
    to know hate for someone
[03:17] ---
    An unknown pulse
[03:18] ---
    Swallow it and it becomes
    mere hope, it falls apart with a sound
[03:24] ---
    The savage pain inside me
[03:32] ---
    is a fighting tragedy
[03:34] ---
    I never wished for this power; the stars
    to wish upon have already fallen
[03:43] ---
    This sad fate screams out loud
[03:46] ---
    Tear me apart, my loved ones
[03:51] ---
    Now, grab hold of your dream
[03:54] ---
    However much you scream about your sad fate
[03:56] ---
    light and prayers will change to betrayal
[04:02] ---
    It's time to be brought to justice
[04:04] ---
    Ah! Where did that smile go?
[04:08] ---
    The answer is nowhere
    to be seen this daybreak
[04:35] ---
    Do you seriously intend to leak
    that report to the Mably family?
[04:39] ---
    Leak? Don't put it like that.
[04:42] ---
    Surely you understand that a
    Pandora opposing Chevalier's decisions
[04:46] ---
    is an act on par with treason.
[04:50] ---
    I'm aware of the risk.
[04:52] ---
    But, if I can just get
    public support on our side...
[04:56] ---
    My point is that that's reckless.
[04:58] ---
    Do you really think you can persuade
    the public--no, the media--that easily?
[05:03] ---
    That's why I am using my family.
[05:07] ---
    The public and the
    media will listen to my father,
[05:10] ---
    the current head of the Mably family.
[05:13] ---
    Doing so would put the
    Mably family at risk too, you know.
[05:20] ---
    I realize that.
[05:26] ---
    My father engendered in
    me a sense of "noblesse oblige."
[05:32] ---
    Noblesse... obli... ge?
[05:36] ---
    Yes.
[05:36] ---
    It means that whoever has
    status needs to conduct themselves
[05:40] ---
    with appropriate
    responsibility and morality.
[05:46] ---
    I suppose it's still too complicated
    for you to understand?
[05:51] ---
    Not at all, Father.
[05:54] ---
    I'll always remember it.
[05:57] ---
    Noblesse oblige.
[06:02] ---
    It's often referred to
    as the duty of an aristocrat.
[06:08] ---
    But, I'm an aristocrat and a
    Pandora, at the same time.
[06:13] ---
    It's for that very reason that I believe
    I have a much more important duty.
[06:21] ---
    The courage to not fear personal harm
[06:24] ---
    to protect those weaker than you.
[06:27] ---
    I believe that is my
    noblesse oblige as a Pandora.
[06:36] ---
    I do not wish to place
    you in danger as well.
[06:39] ---
    I ask that you stay out of this matter.
[06:44] ---
    Geez, talk about a mean streak.
[06:47] ---
    You know that's not
    something I can agree to.
[06:53] ---
    I am your Limiter, after all.
[06:56] ---
    My lady.
[07:01] ---
    Indeed, you're right.
[07:30] ---
    Finished at last.
[07:32] ---
    No.
[07:37] ---
    It's just beginning.
[07:50] ---
    Elizabeth.
[07:52] ---
    I haven't seen you around lately...
[07:56] ---
    Yes, I've been a bit busy.
[07:59] ---
    Oh, I see. Busy...
[08:03] ---
    Elizabeth Mably of West Genetics.
[08:06] ---
    You are to come to General HQ at once.
[08:09] ---
    I repeat, Elizabeth Mably of West Genetics.
[08:13] ---
    You are to come to General HQ at once.
[08:26] ---
    It is I, Elizabeth Mably.
[08:28] ---
    Enter.
[08:41] ---
    Active service Chevalier?
[08:43] ---
    There shouldn't be any stationed here...
[08:46] ---
    Thank you for coming, Elizabeth Mably.
[08:51] ---
    How is life in Alaska treating you?
[08:54] ---
    I imagine it's much
    less comfortable than Japan.
[08:58] ---
    Oh, that isn't true at all.
[09:01] ---
    It is a Pandora's duty to cope with
    even the harshest of conditions.
[09:07] ---
    I see.
[09:09] ---
    You truly are a model Pandora...
[09:11] ---
    ...is what I ought to say.
[09:14] ---
    But I don't understand.
[09:16] ---
    Why would a top-class Pandora like you...
[09:20] ---
    ...commit an offense like this?
[09:26] ---
    It can't be!
[09:27] ---
    Explain yourself.
[09:29] ---
    Why did you send something like this?
[09:33] ---
    How did my report end up here?!
[09:37] ---
    The Mably family surely
    took every precaution!
[09:44] ---
    If, hypothetically, the head of the
    Mably family sought someone's advice
[09:48] ---
    and said someone also
    happened to work for Chevalier...
[09:51] ---
    ...then it's perfectly natural
    that it would end up right here.
[09:55] ---
    Correct?
[09:59] ---
    Then let me ask again.
[10:01] ---
    Why did you file a report like this?
[10:07] ---
    Because... I couldn't accept it.
[10:11] ---
    You hid the fact that
    the Mark IV wasn't ready
[10:13] ---
    and that it could result in
    Nova transformation,
[10:16] ---
    --and then administered it without clinical--
[10:17] ---
    --Need I remind you...
[10:19] ---
    ...that Chevalier makes all the decisions?
[10:21] ---
    Your job is to simply do as you're told!
[10:27] ---
    On top of everything else, you also leaked
[10:29] ---
    top-secret military
    information to the outside.
[10:32] ---
    This is a clear act of treason.
[10:38] ---
    I suggest that you don't resist.
[10:42] ---
    For your own sake.
[11:03] ---
    My, this is rare. Are you by yourself?
[11:08] ---
    Is Elizabeth still gone?
[11:10] ---
    Yes. She hasn't come back since she
    was called to General Headquarters.
[11:15] ---
    Oh, I see.
[11:19] ---
    Could it be that...
[11:21] ---
    ...she's getting a treat
    because of her excellent grades?
[11:25] ---
    Maybe you could stop admiring
    her and follow her example for once?
[11:27] ---
    Huh?
[11:28] ---
    Besides, a treat? She's not a kid, y'know.
[11:31] ---
    Don't be silly, Yujin.
    Everyone loves getting treats!
[11:45] ---
    Do it.
[11:46] ---
    Y-Yes, Sir.
[12:11] ---
    Shall I stop, Sir?!
[12:13] ---
    Continue.
[12:14] ---
    But, Sir. Any more
    will cause irreparable harm...
[12:18] ---
    I don't care.
[12:19] ---
    Pandora aren't so frail
    that they'd break this easily.
[12:25] ---
    No, actually, this amount
    might be just perfect for her.
[12:30] ---
    A Pandora fights and obeys orders.
[12:34] ---
    As such, any other thoughts are pointless.
[12:37] ---
    Obedience or death.
    Those are the only choices.
[12:47] ---
    Satellizer is no big deal,
[12:50] ---
    but with Kazuya gone
    I am nearly bored to death...
[12:55] ---
    As I was saying...
[12:57] ---
    Elizabeth Mably was summoned
    three days ago and has yet to return!
[12:59] ---
    I want to know what's happened to her!
[13:03] ---
    She'll return once her business is finished.
[13:05] ---
    What "business" are we
    talking about, anyway?!
[13:08] ---
    We haven't been informed.
[13:12] ---
    It's no use trying to talk to you!
[13:22] ---
    Andrei! Stop!
[13:28] ---
    Yujin...
[13:31] ---
    Let's return to our quarters.
[13:40] ---
    Is there something
    that's being kept under wraps?
[13:44] ---
    Don't tell me Elizabeth
    was responsible for it?
[13:47] ---
    You mean you knew too?
[13:54] ---
    How ill-mannered, eavesdropping on us.
[13:59] ---
    I am sorry.
[14:13] ---
    Get inside.
[14:16] ---
    Elizabeth Mably. You are
    hereby suspended for one week.
[14:26] ---
    M-Ma'am?
[14:31] ---
    Eli, ma'am?
[14:37] ---
    I-it's me! Andrei!
[14:43] ---
    Eli!
[14:45] ---
    Please pull yourself together!
[14:47] ---
    Please be your usual, dignified self!
[14:53] ---
    This is terrible...
[14:59] ---
    Please, come to your senses!
[15:04] ---
    Elizabeth, ma'am!
[15:15] ---
    --To recap, Mably Group,
    the worldwide conglomerate--
[15:17] ---
    --What's going on?
[15:18] ---
    You know Mably, right?
    It sounds like they're done for.
[15:22] ---
    Mably is?!
[15:24] ---
    ...is now embroiled in a series of
    scandals on a global scale.
[15:29] ---
    Evidence continues to emerge
[15:31] ---
    that serious accounting fraud took
    place across the entire conglomerate,
[15:35] ---
    and that external auditors
    and inspectors were also involved.
[15:39] ---
    The recently-revealed exploitation
    of temporary employees
[15:42] ---
    has met with stern condemnation--
[15:44] ---
    Rich people are always corrupt, huh?
[15:48] ---
    It's not like that.
[15:50] ---
    A-Amelia?!
[15:52] ---
    This startling revelation has rocked
    political and economic circles worldwide
[15:57] ---
    and has prompted the International
    Business Ethics Committee--
[16:01] ---
    This is retaliation.
[16:02] ---
    Retaliation?
[16:04] ---
    The Mably family tried
    to turn against Chevalier.
[16:08] ---
    Then...?!
[16:12] ---
    This is Chevalier destroying
    the Mably family.
[16:19] ---
    They conducted the Mark IV test
    despite knowing it was unlikely to work.
[16:25] ---
    Eli had misgivings about that.
[16:28] ---
    So, to save the E-Pandora, she asked
    the Mably family to spy on Chevalier,
[16:34] ---
    fully aware of the risk it
    meant to her and her family.
[16:42] ---
    No way... Elizabeth Mably did that?
[16:45] ---
    Wait a minute! What do you
    mean the Mark IV is unlikely to work?
[16:49] ---
    The Mark IV was never
    even close to being ready.
[16:53] ---
    But Chevalier needed public support
    to keep the E-Pandora Project going.
[17:00] ---
    So they decided to use the
    E-Pandora as expendable guinea pigs!
[17:06] ---
    That's the conclusion Eli reached!
[17:09] ---
    Calm down, Andrei.
[17:11] ---
    There's no definitive proof, right?
[17:13] ---
    Plus, spying on Chevalier...
[17:16] ---
    Are you saying she leaked information?
[17:18] ---
    Yes, she did! Knowing full
    well it was against regulations!
[17:22] ---
    But it was the only way
    to prevent any further casualties!
[17:40] ---
    You are one of the few girls
    I respect from the bottom of my heart.
[17:48] ---
    Elizabeth... You have such compassion...
[18:01] ---
    This is a nice breeze!
[18:04] ---
    We seriously came to Bali...
[18:07] ---
    Yep!
[18:09] ---
    Uhh, that's all you have to say?
[18:26] ---
    K-Kazuya!
[18:27] ---
    There's a Burger Queen over there;
    could you go get me something?!
[18:30] ---
    Huh?
[18:31] ---
    P-Please!
[18:33] ---
    O-Okay.
[18:55] ---
    I'm back.
[18:58] ---
    What are you reading?
[19:00] ---
    The Mably family is having a scandal?!
[19:04] ---
    Do you think Elizabeth is okay?
[19:07] ---
    I told you that this is not your job.
[19:14] ---
    Excuse me. Are you Satellizer el Bridget?
[19:21] ---
    Miss Violet el Bridget
    has sent me to pick you up.
[19:25] ---
    To pick her up?
[19:39] ---
    What's wrong?
[19:40] ---
    I've finally realized how incredible
    your--no, El Bridget family--is.
[19:47] ---
    Using that El Bridget family, I can
    accomplish what Elizabeth couldn't.
[19:52] ---
    Wait, does Elizabeth have something
    to do with what that article said?!
[19:59] ---
    I don't know. But...
[20:01] ---
    So that's why we came to Bali?
[20:07] ---
    Satelli, ma'am...
[20:09] ---
    Just what are you planning to do?
[20:18] ---
    Satelli!
[20:21] ---
    What happened?! Are you all right?!
[20:25] ---
    It's nothing to worry about.
[20:26] ---
    I am a Pandora and all, Big Sister Violet.
[20:29] ---
    This is your sister?
[20:32] ---
    Yes.
[20:33] ---
    She also runs this hotel.
[20:35] ---
    Huh?!
[20:36] ---
    Only in name.
[20:38] ---
    Father decided to leave me in charge of it.
[20:41] ---
    Anyway...
[20:42] ---
    I'm so happy you're here!
    How many years has it been?
[20:47] ---
    So, is this...?
[20:49] ---
    Yes, I mentioned him
    in my e-mail. He's my--
[20:52] ---
    Very first boyfriend, Kazuya Aoi?!
[20:55] ---
    Come again?
[20:56] ---
    Sister!
[20:58] ---
    When I heard she was bringing a boy here,
[21:01] ---
    I couldn't stop wondering
    what he must be like!
[21:05] ---
    I never expected such a cutie, though!
[21:08] ---
    You can call me Big Sister too, Kazuya Aoi!
[21:11] ---
    Sister!
[21:14] ---
    Huh? Mother and Father are here?
[21:17] ---
    For a vacation... and to see how
    well their daughter is running their resort.
[21:21] ---
    I figured you knew
    and that that's why you came.
[21:26] ---
    No, I was going to
    ask you to talk to them for me.
[21:32] ---
    That's weird! Why not talk
    to them yourself? We're family!
[21:36] ---
    It's just...
[21:39] ---
    I see. So you have
    business with Mom and Dad.
[21:48] ---
    It's good to see you again, Sister.
[21:55] ---
    Luis...
[21:58] ---
    Satelli, ma'am?
[22:08] ---
    Seek out and open your heart
[22:11] ---
    True pain will usher in tomorrow
[22:14] ---
    The world will embrace our wounds
[22:29] ---
    Don't be hurt all by yourself
[22:35] ---
    Those are the words I always wanted to hear
[22:40] ---
    Show off the futures that are sealed away
[22:45] ---
    Show off their sparkle
[22:51] ---
    Wishful heartbeats will wash
    away the sadness
[22:56] ---
    What I want to share is the
    certain warmth of dreams
[23:01] ---
    Seek out and open your heart
[23:04] ---
    True pain will usher in tomorrow
[23:06] ---
    While the world embraces our wounds
[23:12] ---
    I will search for meaning, and
    even if I find nothing at all
[23:18] ---
    I'll never give up! I'll go!
[23:23] ---
    Ignite your life...
[23:24] ---
    Now is everything!
[23:37] ---
    However great El Bridget family
    may be, it has nothing to do with me.
[23:41] ---
    I am Satellizer's Limiter. I share
    my life with her, as her partner.
[23:45] ---
    Next time: "Marionettes."
