- [Ironwood on P.A.] Citizens of Mantle:

Following the most recent Grimm attack,

a temporary prohibition of assembly is now in effect.

a temporary prohibition of assembly is now in effect.

There are to be no public gatherings of any kind.

Please conduct your business

and return to your homes before curfew.

This is for your own safety.

- [Patrol] Hey, stop right there!

Stop running! Wait!

- [Newscaster] Though military officials

have gone on record to say the footage was doctored,

many citizens are still insisting that the

Protector of Mantle be deactivated.

(tense music)

(engine running)

(tires screech)

- [Driver] Civilian,

you are obstructing an Atlas military operation.

Please, step aside.

- [Soldier] Everything all right over here?

Uh, hello?

(body thuds)

(energy wave resonating)

- [Ironwood] This is the worst case scenario.

(fist banging)

More people are dead, Penny's been framed,

and somehow, Jacques Schnee is sitting on the council.

- That's the second shipment

for Amity that was hit today.

It seems election night was the last push

It seems election night was the last push

Robyn needed to go from hometown hero

to full-on vigilante.

- I'm afraid the problem

is more complicated than that.

(exasperated sigh)

- [Ironwood] It seems Robyn has emboldened

our suppliers in Mantle.

They're refusing to sell us provisions

until the city is adequately repaired.

With Robyn redistributing the goods her team has stolen,

the Amity Project is completely stalled.

- [Ruby] But we're so close.

There has to be some way we can finish the tower.

- There is: declaring martial law.

- There is: declaring martial law.

(somber music)

- [Nora] You're not actually considering that, are you?

- [Ironwood] What's more important?

Establishing communications, unite the world?

Or appeasing a few city blocks?

- [Nora] Don't make is sound trivial

when you know it isn't.

You keep talking about how we just need a little more time,

but you're not the one having to struggle.

- [Ironwood] We have all had to make sacrifices

for the greater good.

Mantle has had to bear a lot of the burden, yes, but--

Mantle has had to bear a lot of the burden, yes, but--

- They're bearing all of it!

The longer this waiting game goes on,

the harder each day gets for people down there

and now you wanna send in more soldiers?

You can't force people to fall in line.

If you do that, you'll just be trading

all of these problems for the Grimm.

(tense music)

- Please, General Ironwood.

Squeezing Mantle this way...

That kind of division plays right into Salem's hands.

That kind of division plays right into Salem's hands.

That's why Tyrian is here framing you.

- [Clover] Right, the reason we called

you here in the first place.

You're sure this was the man you saw?

- [Winter] Tyrian Callows was accused

of murders all across Anima.

A homicidal maniac who escaped justice

when his prison transport was attacked by Grimm.

After that, he was never seen again.

- Well, he works for Salem and he's here.

- If we ever had any doubts Atlas was Salem's

next target, I think those are officially out the window.

next target, I think those are officially out the window.

- [Ruby] But now we have a suspect.

We can tell the people.

- That a long-lost serial killer is loose in Mantle

and the military has no idea where he is --

might make things worse before they get better.

- [Nora] I am so sick of secrets!

If we just told everyone about Amity, about Salem --

- We can't!

If we talk about Amity now, we risk Salem's forces,

who we know are here, working to sabotage it.

If we tell them about Salem now, we risk falling

to the Grimm before we can reunite Remnant.

to the Grimm before we can reunite Remnant.

We have to finish the tower.

I want Robyn Hill in custody.

We can offer her a deal if she gets Mantle to cooperate.

- We'll figure it out.

- Anyone not assisting with Robyn

needs to focus on Tyrian.

I want to know who he's working with,

where he's hiding, what he's planning,

and how exactly that video of Penny got all over my kingdom.

Do I make myself clear?

- [Everyone] Yes, sir.

- [Ren] Yes, sir.

(engine running)

- [Yang] Looks like we're approaching 51st.

- [Clover] Thanks for the assist on this, you two.

Now, we may all be split between different trucks,

but we need to be ready to act as one

in case Robyn's team takes the bait.

If your truck is hit, pursue immediately.

Everyone else will move in as fast as possible.

Going radio silent. Over.

- Do you...

Do you think we should've told Ironwood about Salem,

Do you think we should've told Ironwood about Salem,

before he put so much on the line for Amity?

- Sounds like you do.

(Yang sighs)

- I trust Ruby, but I think he deserves to know

what he's stepping into.

We all did.

You don't agree.

- Look around.

The embargo, the military presence,

the restrictions on assembly.

He's a bit prone to overreacting.

- Yeah, hard to argue with that.

Still, he didn't have a lot of good options.

- I'm not sure there are many good options left

- I'm not sure there are many good options left

for any of us anymore.

Keeping secrets, taking lives?

It makes you wonder how far we're gonna have to go

to keep doing the right thing.

- Blake.

We did what we had to do.

- I know.

But, next time, I wanna make sure we don't have to,

and I can tell you, ambushing a huntress who's just

trying to help isn't an option I'm thrilled about choosing.

trying to help isn't an option I'm thrilled about choosing.

- Then, maybe we shouldn't.

- [Ruby] How is she doing?

- [Pietro] She's confused, scared.

We'll have her recorded visual data shortly.

That should prove her innocence,

but the damage has already been done.

The things people are saying about her...

(grunts in frustration)

If Penny hadn't been there, Robyn would be--

(Pietro coughs)

(Pietro coughs)

- I don't think Robyn was their target.

Salem's goal has always been to divide us.

I think Penny was exactly where they wanted her,

just like at the Vytal Festival.

- And just like back then, someone is using our own

technology against us.

This doctored footage of Penny

came from her work all around Mantle,

stolen straight from our surveillance network.

- Ugh, hacking, technology...

Why can't people just do what they used to

and fight to the death?

and fight to the death?

A lot simpler, if you ask me.

- Well, if we're dealing with the same enemy from Beacon,

hacking into Mantle's system would be simple.

Fortunately, the rest of Atlas

is running on an upgraded network.

- [Weiss] And how would someone get access to that network?

- Well, only a few people have clearance.

Ironwood, the council, our cybersecurity

and surveillance leads and maybe a select few who oversee

critical systems like sewage or the heating grid.

- The heating grid run in partnership

with the Schnee Dust Company.

with the Schnee Dust Company.

- What are you thinking?

- I don't know yet, but something isn't right.

- [Maria] Understatement of the century.

(Ruby sighs)

- And how are you doing?

- If Maria hadn't offered to help me these past weeks,

I'd have likely collapsed by now.

Getting a communications tower into the sky

seems impossible on its own,

but now, to think of what people wanna do to my girl...

(Pietro coughs)

- Even if the worst does happen,

- Even if the worst does happen,

you can always reactivate her again,

so maybe try not to worry so much.

- There's a reason why Penny is the only one of her kind.

When the General first challenged us

to find the next breakthrough in defense technology,

most of my colleagues pursued more obvious choices.

I was one of the few who believed

in looking inward for inspiration.

in looking inward for inspiration.

- You wanted a protector with a soul.

- I did. And when General Ironwood saw her, he did too.

Much to my surprise, the Penny Project

was chosen over all the other proposals.

- Why would you be surprised?

You created an artificial aura.

- Well, not quite.

(energy resonating)

- You gave her part of yours?

- Yes, and each time I rebuild Penny,

- Yes, and each time I rebuild Penny,

it takes a little more.

If the people get their wish and she's destroyed,

I won't be able to...

(Pietro crying)

- [Ruby] We'll find whoever's responsible.

I promise.

- [Yang] Robyn--

- [Robyn] Scramble!

- [Blake] No, wait!

(Yang sighs)

- [Robyn] Split up, and regroup at the hideout.

(arrows firing)

- [Blake] Please stop, we just want to--

(Robyn screams)

(small explosion)

(small explosion)

(Yang shouts)

(bullets firing)

(Blake yells)

- If Ironwood wants me, he'll have to send more

than a couple of kids.

- [Yang] He is.

Stopping the trucks alerted the Ace Ops.

We don't have long before they arrive,

so please listen to us.

You need to know the truth.

(Robyn grunts)

- You're stalling.

- Amity Colosseum, all these supplies, they're for...

- Amity Colosseum, all these supplies, they're for...

They're for a new communications tower.

- That doesn't make any sense.

- A new tower means the kingdoms can finally--

- I know what the tower means, Fisticuffs.

One of you take my hand.

- What?

- You said time is short.

Either take it, or I'm gone.

Tell me again, what is Ironwood building out in the tundra?

- A new communications tower.

He's trying to help everyone.

(Robyn exclaims in surprise)

- You're telling the truth.

- Handy semblance.

- Why keep that a secret?

- Because he doesn't know who he can trust.

Atlas isn't out to get anybody.

The people murdering civilians in Mantle

are just trying to make it look that way.

are just trying to make it look that way.

And if those same people learn about Amity,

they'd do everything in their power to destroy it.

- So, who are they?

Who's actually behind this?

- [Harriet] Yang, Blake, where are you?

- We can't tell you that part yet.

- Ugh, bullsh--

- Look, we are trusting you, so trust us when we say

that Amity Tower needs to stay a secret until it's done.

We just need a little more time.

- [Soldiers] This way, come on, over here.

We saw them over this way.

- Run, we'll throw them off.

- I won't stop until I know the whole truth.

- [Ironwood] It's right behind that door.

- [Oscar] The Staff of Creation.

- [Ironwood] I hoped bringing you down here

might jog some memories.

After all, it was your idea to use the staff

to lift Atlas off the ground.

- I thought gravity dust kept Atlas afloat?

- [Ironwood] Eh, that's the public story.

But with the staff, we have a constant,

seemingly limitless energy source.

seemingly limitless energy source.

Oz once speculated it could take us as high as we wanted.

To tell you the truth, that served as

the inspiration for the Amity Project.

Get a communication tower up in the sky,

higher than the Grimm can survive

so we never lose contact with each other again.

- [Oscar] But, you're not using the staff to raise Amity.

- The staff can only be used for one purpose at a time.

We're going to have to do Amity

the old-fashioned way, dust and all.

- [Oscar] It feels strange, knowing that part of me

helped come up with all this.

- [Ironwood] You'll get used to it, I'm sure.

- [Ironwood] You'll get used to it, I'm sure.

Eventually, you won't even know who's who anymore.

- Right.

- We didn't always see eye to eye,

but I wish I could ask Ozpin

what he thought of all of this.

- Well, I can tell you what I think.

The path you're heading down where you're the only one

with the answers, where you do the thing

you think is right no matter the cost,

it's not going to take you anywhere good.

- We have to stop Salem, nothing matters more.

- Some things matter more, I think.

Keeping our humanity. It's what makes us different from her.

- Sometimes I worry that's her greatest advantage.

Without humanity, does she still feel fear?

Does she ever hesitate?

When Salem hit Beacon, even with all my ships,

When Salem hit Beacon, even with all my ships,

all of my soldiers, I was no match for her.

I've never felt so helpless,

the way she told me she was there.

- [Oscar] It's okay to be afraid.

- [Oscar] It's okay to be afraid.

You just can't let that fear control you.

- [Ironwood] I am not going to end up like Lionheart.

Do you believe in me?

- I do believe in you,

but not only you.

I think the best thing you could do is sit down

and talk with the people you're most afraid to.

(Ironwood laughs)

- Now you are starting to sound like him.

(elevator dings)

- [Ironwood] Winter, what is it?

(tense music)

- What's going on?

- It looks like you're getting your wish.

- My father's first act.

We've all been invited to dinner where the General

will be defending his seat on the Council.
