- Authorities are appealing for calm

throughout the evacuation process.

- Now, tell me, who's behind the Zoot appearances with you?

Is it Slade?

- I don't know what you're talking about.

- You then, we'll do this the hard way.

- Oh, come on, Ruby.

You telling me we didn't have a good time last night, huh?

- Funny, because you said last night was a one off.

- So why not have another one?

- Because a one off means that.

If you have a second one, then it's not a one off anymore.

[loud banging]

- Why not just treat them separately.

- Could you please tell your friend to quiet down?

- Leave him, he needs to practice

if he wants to walk one day.

- Look, how about we just call it a two off,

with a rolling renewal option?

- I suppose you don't know where Tai-San is either, eh?

- No. - Liar.

- Look, I know nothing.

- Then let me help you remember.

- Him. - You don't think

I'm gonna fall for that old trick, do ya?

- Hit him!

[upbeat music]

- Hey.

- Hi.

- What happened to you last night?

I fell asleep waiting for you.

- Yeah, sorry about that.

Amber's come back.

- Amber?

- Yeah, so we stayed up talking 'til the early hours.

- How is she?

- Oh, you know, she's fine, a bit tired.

So you haven't seen her then?

- No, no. - Okay.

- So, did you tell her about us?

- Well, I was trying to, but I never really got

to the right moment, you know?

- Do you want me to tell her?

- Oh, no, it's fine.

No, let me do it, please.

- She's still sore at me about Bray.

Is that what's worrying you?

- Nothing's worrying me.

It's really not a problem. - You sure?

You seem like something's on your mind.

- No, no, I'm really fine.

I guess just a little short of sleep.

- Okay, well, how 'bout we both go and tell her?

- Well.

Yeah, sure, why not?

[gentle music]

- He's coming around.

- 'Bout time, musta hit him quite hard.

- Not hard enough.

- Morning, Lex.

Didn't think you were coming back quite so soon.

- Or with such good intentions.

[Lex grunting]

- Hey, easy tiger.

Somebody could get hurt.

- So, you're all in on it, huh?

With Ebony and Java, right?

- Like I said, the guy's crazy.

- All in on what?

- The guest appearances of Zoot, creating panic in the city

so you can take it over.

- We don't wanna listen to all this.

The poor guy's--

- No, I wanna hear what he has to say.

[gentle music]

Lex, why do you think we're involved in a plan

to take over the city?

- Oh, I get it.

You don't know who he is, do you?

- His name's Gabe.

Slade brought him in half dead.

- Lady, you've been taken for a ride.

His name is not Gabe.

This prime scuzbag here has half the city searching for him.

He's the ex-leader of the technos

and the proud creator of Paradise.

Ram.

You're hiding him here at your place.

[upbeat music]

- No, I want him out now.

- Ruby, listen.

- How dare you bring him into my place and lie about it.

And you, what have you got to say for yourself?

- Well, you don't possibly think

that I could have been doing all that stuff

while I was locked up in here, right?

- You've ruined thousands of people's lives with Paradise.

You can leave now.

- Give him to me.

I'll take him back where he belongs.

- Enough.

No one's going anywhere.

I'll decide what happens to Ram and no one else.

Is that clear?

- Have you forgotten who's place this is?

- No, but you won't have a place if people find out

he was hiding here.

So quite belly-aching.

[gentle music]

- So what happens to me?

- Oh, I'll decide what happens to you, too.

[birds chirping] [crowd chanting]

- We can't prove Jack's theory,

because Ram's destroyed the files.

And we can't stop the holograms

because the other tribes won't let us turn the power off.

So that's it, we're in a corner.

- Can't we just chance it?

- They made it pretty clear what they'd do if we did.

And we can't fight a war on two fronts.

- Hey, everyone. - Amber!

- Hey, Mouse.

Sammy, Jack, Jay.

- Amber, how are you?

- Well, I'm all in one piece.

- It's good to see you.

- Um, Amber, have a seat.

Let me get you something. - Oh, I'm all right.

What is this, a council of war?

- Kind of, Trudy didn't wanna wake you.

- Well, you must be tired after that journey.

- Well, I'm all right.

But from what I've seen out there,

we need to get moving.

Where are we at?

- Isn't Salene still asleep?

I mean, shouldn't we wake her?

- I'll go.

- Oh, no, leave her.

She needs to rest.

[gentle music]

- Zoot came to me again last night.

He said that I shouldn't punish his followers

for their cowardice.

- Oh, okay, good.

- He said that his enemies would be destroyed,

but that we should be patient.

- Yeah, I'm sure he's right about that.

He's waiting for that big event, I guess,

the one he mentioned.

- He didn't tell me when that's going to happen.

- He's probably not ready yet.

- It still doesn't make sense.

- How do you mean?

Makes sense to me.

- Zoot never waits.

Zoot never makes plans.

He acts immediately always.

- Well, maybe he's changed.

Maybe he's mellowed a little.

- How can Zoot change?

Zoot is power and chaos, he never changes!

- [Lex] That's it.

- Going somewhere, Lex?

Sorry, can't have you going back to the city

and spilling the beans.

- You have no right keeping me here.

- I guess that's true.

- And if you're thinking of taking over the city,

you don't have a chance.

- I guess that's true, too.

But if you don't get back inside,

you won't stand a chance either.

[gentle music]

- Hey, Salene. - Hi, May.

- You okay?

- Fine, considering.

- You know, you shouldn't be doing all this on your own.

- It's okay, I volunteered.

- Yeah, but they shouldn't have let you.

It's not right.

- It's okay, really.

- No, I insist, come on.

- May, will you stop this, please?

I wanted something to do to keep my mind off things.

Why do you have a problem with that?

- Okay, god, I was just trying be supportive, I'm sorry.

- May, no. - No, don't worry.

I know when I'm not wanted.

- May, please, it's me who should be sorry.

I'm just feeling a little stressed.

- You can say that again.

- Why don't we do it together,

and then you can tell me everything you've been doing

while I've been away.

[gentle music]

- Hey, Amber, how are ya?

- Never better, well, slight exaggeration.

Am I disturbing you?

- No, no, I'm just downloading that stuff for Jack

that we talked about.

- Thanks, looks like it's down to me again.

Salene couldn't carry on as city leader

even if she wanted to.

- She doesn't?

And you? - Do I have a choice?

- We all have a choice.

- I'm beginning to wonder.

Hey, I heard you had an encounter with Ebony

and the zoo crazies, had 'em on the run even.

- Oh, that, well, maybe for a moment.

- Wanna tell me about it?

- Hey, blondie, how's it going?

- It looks like you could do with a good meal.

- She stinks.

- Relax, she'll scrub up fine.

Come with us, we'll look after you.

- No, get off me, get away from me.

- Aw, don't be like that. - She's a wild one.

I like 'em wild. - Hey, you!

Get them.

You okay?

- I'm fine, thanks.

- Don't mention it.

But Zoot saved your life today, so you owe him.

- Who is Zoot?

- What, are you trying to be funny with me, sister?

- No, I'm sorry, but I don't know anyone called Zoot.

- Okay, come with us.

We'll tell you all about him.

- We took one step, just one step and [blows],

they were off.

- I'd like to have seen that.

- You shoulda seen the look on Ebony's face

when she realized they'd gone. [laughs]

- Hey. - Oh, hey.

Jay was just telling me about Ebony and the crazies.

- Oh, yeah, yeah.

Jack wants to know if you got that stuff yet.

- Oh, yeah, looks like it's working.

Maybe another time though, eh?

- No, no, he really needs it now, he said.

- Oh, okay.

- Is everything all right?

- You know Jack when he wants something.

- Well, better get this one fed.

We'll catch up later, okay? - Fine.

- Well, that seemed pretty friendly.

- Yeah.

- So, what did you say? - 'Bout what?

- I don't know, anything.

- Nothing, but I tell you,

she is a completely different person.

Good old Amber again.

I think the country air did her some good.

[gentle music]

- Brought you some food.

How's your head?

- Like you care? - Yes.

And as it happens, I don't like this anymore than you do.

- Then why don't you let me go?

- Because Slade's right.

If anyone finds out I'm keeping Ram here, I'm finished.

- I won't tell. - Thanks, but he might.

- He wouldn't get a chance.

- Just thought you'd like to know, Mr. Tough Guy,

I'm not a big fan of cold-blooded murder.

And for what it's worth, I think he's telling the truth

about your partner, what was her name again?

- Tai-San.

- How long were you together?

- Not long enough.

- Well, it sucks being left alone in the world.

- Is that what happened to you?

- Something like that.

- Slade, where does he fit in?

- Enjoy your food.

[gentle music]

- Like, it's one thing for Zoot to run her life for her,

but it's another when she starts disagreeing with him.

She's starting to go off the wall big time.

- She'll be fine.

Don't worry about her. - But if she gets any worse,

no one's gonna take her seriously.

These kids think of her as their leader.

- We'll cross that bridge if we get to it.

[gentle music]

- That's the girl who tried to wipe Ebony out, isn't it?

- Where is she?

- Inside, think we should evacuate?

- Wait. [whistles]

That girl, where'd you find her?

- She was lost.

Kinda strange too, she says she's never heard of Zoot.

- What'd she have with her?

- Nothing, just the clothes she's sitting down in.

- You sure?

No bag or anything? - Yeah, why?

- It doesn't matter, lock her up, maximum security.

- Okay, each time they use a hologram,

there's a power surge.

- Which means it'd have to go on undeleted records

so there's no proof.

- Right, which means he needs

to enter the network somewhere.

- And we can trace that? - Exactly.

- And see if there's a pattern

that matches the hologram sightings.

- Oh, hey, Trudy.

Did you want something?

- No, nothing that can't wait.

- You sure?

- Yeah, you guys look really busy, so I'll leave you to it.

- Okay, see, we need a shortcut.

Check this out, if you take a basic model of the dates

of the sightings, you just might get the access dates.

[computer beeps]

There.

You listen, Amber. - Yeah, sure.

- Who sent you?

- No one sent me, why are you keeping me here?

- Don't play games with me.

You think you can just walk in here and insult

my intelligence by pretending you don't know who I am?

- I don't, I'm sorry.

- How were you going to do it?

- Do what?

Why don't you just please tell me

what you're accusing me of.

- She's bluffing. - I'm not so sure.

- It makes no difference.

Take her out and finish her.

- Yeah, we could do that, but supposing Zoot sent her.

- Why would he do that?

- Maybe he has a purpose for her,

or maybe he wants us to see where this leads.

- How?

- If she is bluffing, we find out who's behind it,

and if she really has lost her memory.

- What? - Well, seems a waste

to delete her until she remembers what it's for.

- Seems pretty calm now.

- Let's hope it's not he calm before the storm.

- We've come through worse.

I don't see us not coming through this, do you?

- Yeah, I guess, if we can beat Ram with his technos

behind him, we can beat Ram now, and the ugly sisters.

- I like that, the ugly sisters.

Reminds me of happier times, pantomimes.

Jay-- - Amber.

Oh, hi, Jay.

Bray woke up crying before

and I can't get him back to sleep.

- Oh, he seemed so settled.

- Yeah, sorry, I think he needs his mom.

- That's okay.

Well, I better go and see what's the matter.

[gentle music]

- When are we gonna tell her?

- Poor, May, I bit her head off.

And when I said she could help, she didn't want to anymore.

- Yeah, there's been something really strange

about her lately.

I don't feel comfortable around her at all.

- Me neither.

You know, sometimes, looking at everything that's going on,

I think maybe Pride's better off out of it all.

If I'd gone to the Ecos way back when he wanted to,

he'd still be alive.

- Hey.

We can't rewrite the past.

We have to look forward now.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

- Isn't it good about Jay and Amber, though?

At least one positive thing's happening.

I think they're gonna make each other really happy.

- Yeah.

[owl hoots]

- Can we talk?

Okay, look, I owe you an apology.

- You owe me rent for another room.

- Ruby, you gotta understand.

That Lex guy had no business sniffing around here

the way he did.

- Oh, so it's all his fault. - Partly.

There's no way I can have people like that

interfering in my business.

- And what is your business, Slade?

You haven't said.

- My business is just that, mine.

- I thought you were a decent guy when you showed up, Slade.

But it turns out that you're keeping a criminal in my house

and a hostage.

- You're right, I've taken advantage of you, Ruby,

I know I have, I'm sorry.

You deserve better.

Best thing is I should go, and take Ram with me.

[gentle music]

- You got her drink ready yet?

- Yeah, she looked like she needed it.

- Let's hope she doesn't have

any more of her Zoot dreams tonight.

- Tell me about it.

Here, you wanna take it to her?

- Sure. [gentle music]

Here you go, this'll help you sleep.

- Why is Ali here?

Why would Zoot have sent her?

- Hasn't it ever occurred to you that maybe Zoot

doesn't control everything?

- Are you doubting him?

- No, all I'm saying is, well, if you and Zoot

don't see eye-to-eye about everything,

maybe it's a sign you need to be yourself more

'cause you're not a slave, right?

You're his bride, and a bride doesn't have to do everything

her husband says, does she?

You know what I'm saying.

- Whatever. - You're tired.

Let me tuck you in.

There now, sleep tight.

- [Ebony] [yawns] Thanks.

[upbeat music]

- Come on, Slade, you haven't even said where we're going.

- That's 'cause I don't know yet.

- Why don't you just offer up a better trade?

- Because I don't have anything else to trade.

Anyway, it wouldn't make any difference.

Trust me, I know what I'm doing.

Come on.

- Okay, and where do you think you two are going?

- Excuse me?

- Look, I'm probably gonna regret this,

but you can stay.

[gentle music]

[helmet whirring]

- Sweet dreams, little sister.

- [Ghostly Voice] Ebony.

- Great minds, huh?

- Yeah, he sleeping okay now?

- Oh, yeah, he's fine.

I don't know what all that was about.

Thanks.

- Well, big day tomorrow, good night.

- Jay, don't go.

There's something I've been trying to tell you all day,

but every time something gets in the way.

- What is it?

- Well, I feel a bit foolish, but, um,

I've been thinking a lot about some of the things I said

to you about Bray, and well, I've realized

it was wrong of me to blame you for what happened.

I'm sorry.

- It's okay, it's over now.

- But I let it get in the way of things, important things.

Because when I said nothing could ever happen between us,

I was wrong.

I know now, Jay, I want us to be together.
