Alex is standing in his study when Claus enters. Claus tells Alex that Disith is gone and everything is in chaos. Claus says they have lost everything except their father’s vanship.

In his room, Dio is laying down looking at a picture of Lavie and Claus’s dads, and the couple they flew with. He took this picture from Alex’s study. (I wonder why he had it?)

Sophia enters Tatiana’s quarters telling her Alex would like to see her. She says she doesn’t want to go, yet. Sophia notices the outfit Claus gave her and says Claus must’ve been kind to her.

In the engine room Dio is playing a game of chess with the engineer. He holds up the picture he was examining earlier and says Claus won’t give him the time of day.

The mechanics are hanging out in the weight room talking about how they think Claus and Tatiana had sex. Mullin tells them to stop it because they need to think of how Lavie must feel. Gustavi tells him now is the time for him to make his move on Lavie.

Claus and Alvis try to visit Lavie but she won’t come out of her room. He tells her that all problems go away when they’re working on their dad’s vanship but she still won’t come out so they head out.

In the Anatoray kingdom, Vincent is stripped of his rank of captain of the Urbanus. The emperor reassigns him to working under Mad-Thane.

At his throne, the Emperor is talking about going to war with the Guild.

Aboard the Silvana, Lavie has finally come out and starts to work on her vanship with Claus and Alvis. The Silvana begins to take off as it has been repaired enough.

The man who is always seen talking with the Emperor, Marius, is informed by a soldier that the Silvana is not gone. He tells the soldier to tell no one but himself news about the Silvana. (He is the man who sent Sophia a pigeon earlier in the show) Thinking to himself, he says the Emperor’s decision to go to war with the guild will be the end for them all and that he must involve her majesty. (Who could that be?)

In the hangar, Claus is telling Lavie about Tatiana and how they were wrong about her. Overhead she is bringing his clothes back to him and over hears. Lavie however breaks down and begins to cry.

On the bridge, Sophia asks Alex what is their course and he tells them to set course for Maestro Delphine, leader of the guild.

When Tatiana tries to return Claus’s clothes to him, Alistair tells her to wait and not look too much into things.

Dio pays Claus a visit with the picture he took from Alex. He shows Claus the picture and how the vanship in the picture looks like his. He also says how Alex had it. Claus takes it and runs to the bridge. Dio is disappointed because the picture was only suppose to start a conversation.

Claus appears on the bridge demanding to know what the picture is. Alex takes him to his study.

In the hangar the vanships have been scrambled by Alex. Tatiana and Alistair are now flying together and Alistair notices Tatiana looking for Claus. (This is for patrol)

Dio tells Luciola how much fun it would be to go out. Luciola tells Dio he believes his sister is looking for him. Dio then changes his mind.

In Alex’s study Alex asks Claus if he can accept the truth no matter what it is.

In Sophia’s room, a pigeon has arrived from Marius.

Alex tells Claus that their vanship belonged to him, not his and Lavie’s dad. He also says he was the one who told him, lavie, and his mom that day about their dad’s death. Alex calls himself a coward because he left behind the one person who meant everything to him. A flashback is shown of the two ships flying alongside Exile. Exile swipes Claus/Lavie’s dad’s ship and Alex’s lover gets knocked out. Alex tells us Maestro Delphine watched it all, and did nothing but smile.

In her study, Sophia says to herself that he (Marius) can’t ask this of her.

Claus realizes that Alex is fighting the guild for revenge, and to take possession of exile so that he can take control of the world. Alex tells Claus Exile has the power to control the world, and gives the Guild it’s power. Claus asks Alex what he intends to do with it. Alex says he wants to destroy it.

In her room Sophia lets down her hair, and calls herself Princess Sophia.

Claus is walking down the hall when Sophia walks out with her hair down.

In her room, Lavie apologizes to Alvis for her mood and says she wishes she could talk to Claus like she use to but to her, Claus came back from the desert a different person. She also can’t get the image of Tatiana wearing Claus’s overalls out of her head.

In Alex’s study Alex learns that Marius wants Sophia to take the throne. Alex calls her weak for having to ask him what to do. Sophia says she intends to stay so Alex tells her to fix her hair.

Outside on a balcony, Claus runs into Sophia and tells her she smells nice because she is wearing perfume for once. Sophia asks Claus to sit down and talk with her. Claus talks about how he doesn’t understand why Alex never said anything to him and how Alex is no different to him than the guild. Claus asks Sophia why she is aboard the Silvana and she calls herself weak. He says he doesn’t think she is weak. Sophia then leans in and kisses Claus.

Notes: -Sophia looks a lot like Alex’s lost love.
-Sophia is 19, Claus is 15. Go Claus :P
