MEI-LI: WOW. HMM?
IF I HAD KNOWN YOU WERE SO GOOD AT FOLDING,
I WOULD HAVE MADE YOU DO LAUNDRY MANY YEARS AGO.
HA HA HA! HEADING OUT?
YEAH. LEWIS JUST CALLED.
RESTAURANT IS SLAMMED TODAY.
I'LL BE BACK AFTER LUNCH.
WE'LL BE FINE. WE'VE GOT IT ALL COVERED, LO POR, HUH?
MEI-LI: OK. MWAH. OH.
YOU HAVE A GOOD DAY. MEI-LI: THANK YOU. BYE.
ALL RIGHT. BYE-BYE.
HEY, MRS. SHEN. MEI-LI: HEY.
MR. SHEN. HEY.
HEY, EVAN.
NOTICE ANYTHING DIFFERENT ABOUT ME?
HAVE YOU LOST WEIGHT? MM-HMM.
I'M DOWN AT LEAST ONE POUND OF POLICE MONITORING EQUIPMENT,
FREE TO COME AND GO AS I PLEASE, THANKS TO YOU AND NADIA.
WELL, THE D.A. WAS ABLE TO GET YOU OFF HOUSE ARREST,
BUT SHE CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT YOUR CHARGES UNTIL SHE MAKES HER MOVE
ON DAVID WHEELER AND DELTA SECURITY ENDEAVORS.
HOW LONG? NEXT WEEK AT THE EARLIEST.
SO TOO LATE.
I WAS HOPING THE NEWS WOULD BREAK BEFORE THE ELECTION.
YOUR OPPONENT'S TIED TO DELTA BY SUPPORTING ORDINANCE 11.
IT COULD HAVE MOVED THE NEEDLE IN OUR FAVOR.
EH, WE DON'T NEED SCANDAL TO WIN THIS RACE, RIGHT?
HEH HEH HEH HEH!
WHAT?
I DIDN'T WANT TO GET IN YOUR HEAD WITH JUST A FEW DAYS TO GO,
BUT I COMMISSIONED A POLL.
ANTHONY'S LEADING BY TWO PERCENTAGE POINTS.
WELL, WE JUST HAVE TO WORK A LITTLE HARDER.
MAKE MORE PHONE CALLS AND KNOCK ON MORE DOORS, OK? YEAH?
OK.
THE WORD IS IT WAS A BLOODBATH--
3 DEAD MINERS AND THEIR FOREMAN.
APPARENTLY, XIAO INFILTRATED CONTACTA ENERGY SOLUTIONS.
SHE PAID OFF A TEAM TO DIG INTO THE SHAANXI MINE,
AND THEN SHE KILLED THEM ALL.
OK, WHERE'D YOU HEAR ALL THIS?
THE WAN ZAI HAS SOURCES IN CHINA; THAT WAS ALL THEY KNEW,
BUT THE ATTACK MUST HAVE BEEN CAPTURED ON CONTACTA SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS.
EVAN'S REACHING OUT TO SOME OLD FRIENDS TO SEE
IF WE CAN GET AHOLD OF THE FOOTAGE.
CAN'T YOU TRACK HER SOMEHOW?
USE YOUR COMPASS POWER.
I TRIED HOMING IN ON HER TOTEM. I HAVEN'T HAD ANY LUCK.
HAVE YOU TRIED HOMING IN ON HER?
YOU DID IT BEFORE, RIGHT? THAT'S HOW YOU FOUND ME IN THE WASTELAND?
THAT WAS DIFFERENT. THAT ONLY WORKED BECAUSE--
BECAUSE OF HOW I FEEL ABOUT YOU.
EVAN GOT THE VIDEO.
WELL, CRAM THEM IN. CORPORATE ORDERED MORE CHAIRS.
TRUCK'LL BE OUT BACK ANY SECOND.
MEI-LI. MEI-LI: YEAH.
YOU SAID YOU STILL HAVE SOME TWO-TOPS IN STORAGE?
MEI-LI: I DO. GREAT. DUST 'EM OFF.
GOT A BUSLOAD OF HUNGRY TOURISTS ARRIVING IN 30 MINUTES.
CARRIE, WHERE ARE ALL THESE CUSTOMERS COMING FROM?
"THE INTREPID TRAVELER" JUST NAMED HARMONY DUMPLINGS
THE TOP CHINESE RESTAURANT IN SAN FRANCISCO.
WE'RE BLOWING UP. GOT TO ADAPT.
UH, I--I'M VERY GLAD FOR THE ATTENTION AND THE BUSINESS,
BUT WE DON'T HAVE THE CAPACITY.
THE KITCHEN, THE FOOD--
HIRE MORE STAFF. YOU'RE GONNA MAKE IT WORK.
THIS IS WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE.
IF IT'S TOO DRY, DON'T KILL ME.
MMM.
PERFECTLY DRY.
YOU CAN LIVE.
OH.
ON THE HOUSE FOR, YOU KNOW, SAVING ALTHEA'S LIFE.
SPEAK OF THE DEVIL. HEY, BABE.
HEY, THIS MIGHT SOUND CRAZY,
BUT...WERE YOU FOLLOWED ON YOUR WAY TO WORK TODAY?
UH, NO.
DO YOU HAVE IT?
EVAN'S BRINGING IT. WHY ARE WE SO SURE
THAT THIS SURVEILLANCE VIDEO WILL GIVE US ANYTHING ACTIONABLE?
IT'S THE BEST LEAD WE'VE GOT.
THAT'S NOT EXACTLY TRUE.
I CAN THINK OF ONE OTHER PERSON
WHO MIGHT KNOW MORE ABOUT XIAO'S PLANS.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO BO.
XIAO LEFT HIM BEHIND ANYWAY,
SO I DOUBT HE KNOWS ANYTHING.
HI. HEY, SORRY I'M LATE. HERE.
WHAT IS THAT?
XIAO'S FACE.
IT'S HER.
WHAT--WHAT HAPPENED TO PEI-LING?
MY SISTER IS GONE.
THIS DOESN'T CHANGE ANYTHING.
WE STILL HAVE TO FIND XIAO, FIGURE OUT HER ENDGAME.
OK, THAT'S WHAT SHE WAS LOOKING FOR. WHAT IS IT?
IT LOOKS LIKE A RUYI; IT'S A TYPE OF SCEPTER
FROM XIAO'S ERA. UM, IT'S A SYMBOL OF POWER.
WELL, THOSE STONES LOOK LIKE JYU SA.
THAT SITE USED TO BE A JYU SA MINE;
YOU SAID XIAO TRAVELED THERE IN THE LAST YEAR OF HER LIFE.
SO WHAT DOES SHE WANT THIS SCEPTER FOR?
DOES IT MATTER?
PERHAPS THIS WAS XIAO'S MAGIC WAND.
CLEARLY, IT HAD ENOUGH JUICE
TO RETURN HER TO HER ORIGINAL STATE.
HER FACE, HER BODY.
I THOUGHT THIS WAS ABOUT SAVING MY SISTER.
IT IS. WE WILL.
HOW?
SHE'S GONE.
WE DON'T KNOW THAT.
SHE COULD STILL BE INSIDE XIAO.
PEI-LING WOULDN'T GIVE UP ON US.
WE CAN'T GIVE UP ON HER.
HEY, BABE.
HEY. OOH.
STILL WORKING ON YOUR REÉSUME? YES, SIR.
YOU SETTLED ON A STYLE YET?
SEE FOR YOURSELF.
OH!
YOU DESIGNED THIS?
I DIDN'T KNOW YOU HAD THOSE SKILLS.
OH, I DO NOT.
I USED CANVA, AND IT DID ALL THE WORK.
WHAT'S THAT WINDOW? UH, NOTHING.
ARE YOU ON THE APPS AGAIN?
YEAH, UH-HUH.
MM-HMM. ON A LAPTOP.
FOOD TRUCKS.
I DIDN'T KNOW-- THAT I HAVE
UNREALISTIC FANTASIES? HEH!
STARTING MY OWN MOBILE JOINT,
BEING MY OWN BOSS,
COOKING MY OWN FOOD?
YEAH, CHECK THE PRICES.
WHOA. WAY OUTTA MY RANGE.
BESIDES, I HAVE A JOB INTERVIEW AT KUNI'S.
HMM.
IT'S ABOUT TIME I STARTED PULLING MY WEIGHT AGAIN.
DAYDREAMS ARE NICE, BUT...
I NEED A PAYCHECK. HEH HEH!
SEE YA.
FOUND SOMETHING.
THE JEWEL ON THE SCEPTER'S CROWN,
I THINK IT'S A GOLDEN PEARL--
EXTREMELY RARE AND, ACCORDING TO SOME MYTHOLOGIES,
IT'S A POWERFUL CONDUIT FOR MAGICAL ENERGY.
THE PEARL ON HER SCEPTER HAD SOME KIND OF MARKING ON IT, RIGHT?
YEAH.
I DIDN'T FIND A MATCH ON THE SYMBOL, BUT I'VE BEEN THINKING.
I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO USE MY COMPASS TO TRACK XIAO OR HER TOTEM,
BUT IF THE PEARL IS SUCH A POWERFUL CONDUIT, THEN MAYBE...
YOU CAN HOME IN ON IT. ZHILAN, SIGHING: OH, TERRIFIC.
MORE MAYBES. SORRY, MAGELLAN,
BUT YOUR CONTROL OVER YOUR POWER
IS SHAKY, AT BEST.
LOOK, YOU CAN TRY, BUT YOU KNOW
WHAT WE NEED TO DO--
THE HARVESTER, BO, AND LAST I HEARD,
HE'S ALIVE, STILL IN THIS CITY, JUST SITTING THERE!
I DON'T CARE IF IT'S A FRIENDLY CHAT
OR A TORTURE SESSION, BUT WE SHOULD
AT LEAST FIND OUT WHAT HE KNOWS.
THINGS SEEM CRAZY-BUSY.
YEAH. HEY, CAN YOU PASS ME THE BAÁICAÀI?
BUT IT'S NEVER TOO BUSY FOR YOU. HIT ME.
UM, WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT FOOD TRUCKS?
ARE THEY A GOOD INVESTMENT?
IT DEPENDS ON A LOT OF THINGS,
LIKE THE FOOD-- SO FILIPINO FUSION?
SEBASTIAN IS STARTING A FOOD TRUCK?
NO, NO. HE'S HUSTLING TO FIND KITCHEN WORK,
BUT IT TURNS OUT THAT'S HIS DREAM.
MEI-LI: MM-HMM. HE SAYS IT'S TOO EXPENSIVE
AND HE DOESN'T WANT ME SUPPORTING HIM WHILE HE STARTS A BUSINESS,
BUT, YOU KNOW, I'VE BEEN MAKING SOME MONEY,
AND, UH, I DON'T KNOW. I WANT TO HELP.
JUST WANT HIM TO BE HAPPY.
MEI-LI: HMM. WHAT?
YOUR BABA HELD DOWN TWO FULL-TIME JOBS
WHILE I WAS GETTING THIS PLACE ON ITS FEET.
HE WANTED TO MAKE MY DREAMS COME TRUE,
BUT THERE IS NOTHING HARDER OR RISKIER
THAN THIS INDUSTRY, AND FOOD TRUCKS ARE NO EXCEPTION.
BUT IF I WERE TO TAKE A RISK ON ANYBODY,
IT'D BE SEBASTIAN.
YOU'RE TRYING TOO HARD. JUST PUT SOME MUSIC ON
OR SOMETHING, JUST RELAX A LITTLE.
IT'S KINDA HARD WITH YOU JUST THERE... STARING AT ME.
PERFORMANCE ANXIETY? REALLY?
YOU KNOW WHAT? WILL YOU JUST...?
DID YOU SEE HER?
YEAH,
AND I THINK SHE SAW ME, TOO.
NICKY.
CAN I...?
YEAH.
TWO RIBS--
BRUISED, NOT BROKEN.
IT BELONGS TO YOU.
NICKY-- WAIT. I...
I--I'D LIKE TO GO FIRST.
I AM SORRY FOR WHAT I DID TO YOU.
I'VE BEEN WANTING TO APOLOGIZE FOR A WHILE, BUT...
PART OF ME WANTED TO DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN.
YOU BETRAYED ME, AND I'M STILL TRYING
TO PUT THE PIECES TOGETHER OF WHAT YOU KNEW,
WHEN YOU KNEW IT, IF ANY OF IT WAS REAL...
BUT YOU DIDN'T DESERVE THAT.
I DESERVED IT.
I DESERVED WORSE,
FREEING XIAO...
AND I LIED TO YOU.
THE WHOLE TIME, YOU DIDN'T KNOW WHO I REALLY WAS.
NICKY, I'M S--
I AM SO SORRY.
I FELL FOR YOU,
AND IT FELT SO GOOD, SO RIGHT,
I ACTUALLY BELIEVED THAT IT WOULD ALL BE OK.
FREEING SOULS IN THE WASTELAND...
I THOUGHT I WAS THE HERO.
XIAO USED ME.
IT WAS ALL A LIE.
BUT WHAT I FELT FOR YOU...
THAT WAS ALL REAL.
WHEN YOU FREED XIAO, YOU MUST HAVE KNOWN THAT WAS...
THAT WAS THE END OF ANYTHING WE COULD HAVE HAD.
I WOULD HAVE DONE ANYTHING FOR HER.
SHE WAS MY SHIFU.
DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT XIAO?
YOU KNOW WHAT SHE'S PLANNING, WHAT SHE'S AFTER?
SHE ONLY TOLD ME WHAT SHE WANTED ME TO KNOW.
WASN'T MUCH.
SHE USED TO TALK ABOUT HER CREATION,
HER BLOODLINE.
SAID IT WAS...
CORRUPTED AFTER HER DEATH,
THAT WHEN SHE GOT HER POWER BACK,
SHE WOULD UNDO THE CORRUPTION.
SHE WOULD CLEANSE THE BLOODLINE.
I SHOULD--
YEAH, GO.
IT FELT LIKE XIAO SAW ME. SHE CAN DO THAT?
MAYBE I WAS JUST IMAGINING IT,
OR MAYBE SHE'S GETTING MORE POWERFUL.
THE REST WERE JUST FLASHES. UH...
I SAW A VILLAGE.
LOOKED LIKE A DAY MARKET IN CHINA.
I COULD HEAR THE VENDORS.
THEY WERE SPEAKING IN BAI.
THE MONASTERY.
WHY WOULD XIAO GO THERE?
BO SAID THAT SHE WAS OBSESSED WITH THE CORRUPTION
OF THE BLOODLINE, THAT SHE WANTED TO CLEANSE IT.
MIA.
SHE IS A WARRIOR-GUARDIAN HYBRID.
XIAO THINKS SHE'S AN ABOMINATION.
SHE'S WANTED HER DEAD FOR A LONG TIME.
THEN WHY ALL THE GLOBETROTTING,
THE SEARCH FOR HER SCEPTER?
SHE FEARS MIA, TOO.
YOU KNOW, MAYBE SHE WAS ARMING UP, GETTING READY--
TO KILL HER.
JUST PUSH THE RADIO INTERVIEW TO TOMORROW.
ELECTION'S IN TWO DAYS.
GRASSROOTS CAMPAIGN LIKE YOURS...
SHOULDN'T YOU BE OUT KNOCKING ON DOORS?
WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT DELTA.
WHAT ABOUT THEM?
THE D.A.'s COMING AFTER THEM--
DAVID WHEELER, THE WHOLE COMPANY.
CHARGES WILL BE ANNOUNCED NEXT WEEK. IT'LL BE A MAJOR SCANDAL.
YOU NEED TO GET READY TO DISTANCE YOURSELF FROM THEM.
WHY WARN ME,
AFTER EVERYTHING?
BECAUSE I THINK YOU'LL WIN.
LOOK, THE LAST THING THIS DISTRICT NEEDS IS
A SUPERVISOR DROWNING IN SCANDAL,
UNABLE TO MEET ITS NEEDS.
THE D.A. IS STILL BUILDING HER CASE.
WAIT TILL THE CHARGES ARE OFFICIAL,
BUT YOU NEED A STRATEGY,
OR YOUR NEXT TERM WILL FAIL BEFORE IT BEGINS.
LOOK,
I HOPE I'M WRONG 'CAUSE I WANT TO WIN,
BUT OUR DISTRICT, OUR PEOPLE
DESERVES EFFECTIVE REPRESENTATION,
AND THAT'S WHAT MATTERS TO ME.
OK, I LEFT A MESSAGE AT THE POST OFFICE.
IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO REACH THE MONASTERY, BUT IT COULD BE DAYS TILL MIA GETS IT.
WE DON'T HAVE DAYS.
I COULD TRY LOCAL POLICE.
XIAO WOULD MAKE MINCE OF THEM.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
GETTING US ON THE NEXT FLIGHT TO CHINA.
WHAT ABOUT--
I'LL LOOK AFTER YOUR FAMILY.
GO. PROTECT MIA.
YO, CAN I AT LEAST GET A HINT HERE?
HEH HEH! JUST A FEW MORE STEPS.

SO THANK YOU, NICKY, FOR EVERYTHING.
YOU, TOO, ZHILAN...
YOUR SACRIFICE.
YOU GAVE YOUR LIFE SO WE COULD ESCAPE.
I'M ONLY HERE BECAUSE OF YOU.
SO, XIAO'S BACK.
IN YUNNAN.
SHE'S COMING FOR ME?
SO WHERE IS SHE? WHY HASN'T SHE MADE HER MOVE?
WE'RE NOT SURE, BUT UNTIL WE KNOW MORE,
WE'RE BRINGING YOU BACK TO SAN FRANCISCO.
XIAO IS STRONGER THAN EVER.
WE CAN'T LEAVE YOU ALONE RIGHT NOW.
I'VE RUN AWAY BEFORE, AND I WON'T DO THAT AGAIN.
THANK YOU FOR COMING HERE AND WANTING TO PROTECT ME...
BUT I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
OK. NO, I--YES.
UH-HUH. I DON'T--
WE NEED TO TALK.
I'LL CALL YOU BACK.
I AM DONE FIGHTING WITH YOU, CARRIE.
IT'S OVER.
LOOK, WE STARTED THIS PARTNERSHIP AS FRIENDS.
WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A TALK LIKE HUMAN BEINGS.
NO AGENDAS.
ALL RIGHT.
THE AGGRESSIVE MARKETING, THE SEATING PLAN, THE TOUR GROUPS.
WE'RE TURNING AWAY OUR REGULAR CUSTOMERS,
PEOPLE I HAVE SERVED FOR DECADES.
MEI-LI?
LOOK, I AM NOT TURNING MY BACK ON SUCCESS,
AND I KNOW WE NEED TO MAKE A PROFIT,
BUT SURELY, THERE IS A WAY OF DOING THIS
WITHOUT DESTROYING THIS PLACE.
MEI-LI, IT WASN'T ME.
THE MARKETING PUSH, THE CHANGES,
IT'S ALL COMING FROM CORPORATE.
IT STARTED WITH YOUR FROZEN DUMPLING RECIPE,
AND THEY GOT SO EXCITED ABOUT THE RETAIL POTENTIAL
THAT THEIR PLANS CHANGED.
THEIR PLANS?
THEY WANT TO MAKE HARMONY DUMPLINGS
A NATIONALLY-RECOGNIZED BRAND TO PUSH GROCERY SALES.
AND IF THE FLAGSHIP RESTAURANT TURNS
INTO A TOURIST TRAP IN THE PROCESS,
THEY DON'T CARE.
BUT YOU'RE NOT LIKE THAT, MEI-LI.
I KNOW WHAT THIS PLACE MEANS TO YOU.
IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?
YOU COULD TAKE THE FIGHT TO CORPORATE,
BUT IT WOULD GET MESSY,
ALTHOUGH IF ANYBODY COULD TAKE ON GOLIATH...
CARRIE?
SORRY. THE LINE AT MONDO WAS INSANE.
BABE?
DID YOU SEE THE WHITE VAN?
NOPE. NO VAN. I CHECKED.
YOU WANT ME TO LOOK AGAIN?
NO, NO, NO, NO. THAT'LL LOOK SUSPICIOUS.
SUSPICIOUS TO WHO?
THE PEOPLE FOLLOWING ME.
I TOLD YOU, REMEMBER?
THE GUY IN THE WHITE VAN.
I SAW HIM TWICE YESTERDAY,
FIRST AT THE HOUSE, THEN HERE.
AFTER WHAT I DID TO THEM,
WHAT IF DELTA'S FOLLOWING ME, WATCHING ME?
I AM NOT CRAZY. I KNOW WHAT I SAW.
ONE GUY IN A VAN?
NOT JUST THAT. I HAVE PROOF, HMM?
MM-HMM?
OHH. I ALWAYS HAVE MY BOSS BITCH MUG
FACING MY CHAIR.
THIS MORNING, I CAME IN, IT WAS FACING OUT.
OH, THEY SEARCHED HERE.
THEY MOVED IT, THEN THEY GOT SLOPPY.
I'M GETTING KIND OF WORRIED HERE, BABE.
OK. LOOK, I'M SORRY, DENNIS.
I PROMISE I'LL DROP IT...
AFTER YOU HELP ME SEARCH THIS OFFICE.
PLEASE?
OK. WE'LL START IN HERE.
WHAT DO WE DO?
SHE DOESN'T WANT TO LEAVE HER SISTERS BEHIND.
I KNOW. BUT WE CAN'T LEAVE HER HERE.
WHAT IF WE DON'T?
IT'S NOT MY PLACE TO SPEAK ABOUT MIA,
BUT SHE'S CHANGED, NICKY.
SHE'S NOT THE SAME GIRL THAT SHE WAS,
AND SHE IS STRONG.
IF ANYONE CAN DEFEAT XIAO, IT'S HER.
SO WHAT, WE JUST LET HER?
SO WE FIGHT.
IF WE'RE GOING TO SAVE PEI-LING,
WE HAVE TO DEFEAT XIAO FIRST,
SO WE DO IT RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW--
YOU, ME...
AND HER.
YOU'RE RIGHT.
SHE'S READY.
CHEF! HI.
HI.
ENGINE'S SHOT. MEI-LI: UH-HUH.
GRILL IS KAPUT. MEI-LI: YUP.
I KNOW IT'S NOT MUCH TO LOOK AT, BUT--
BUT IT'LL GET THERE.
YOU, UM...
LOOKING FOR A PARTNER?
UH...
LOOK, SEB...
I WANT TO BE IN BUSINESS WITH YOU.
WHATEVER IT IS YOU'RE PLANNING,
I WANT TO BE A PART OF IT,
FULL-TIME.
WHAT ABOUT THE RESTAURANT?
I'M LETTING IT GO.
I'VE SPOKEN WITH CARRIE AND JIN,
AND IT'S ALL IN MOTION.
I'M SELLING OUR STAKES IN HARMONY DUMPLINGS.
OH, MEI-LI.
I'M SORRY. ARE--ARE YOU...?
OK?
I TRAVELED ACROSS THE WORLD
TO MAKE MY DREAM A REALITY,
AND I DID.
I PUT EVERYTHING I HAD INTO THAT RESTAURANT.
AND, OHH, I LOVED IT.
AND IT WAS HARD.
AND IT LASTED FOR 25 YEARS.
AND WHEN IT GOT DESTROYED,
I PUT IT BACK TOGETHER AGAIN.
WE PUT IT BACK TOGETHER AGAIN.
AND IT'S A SUCCESS.
I LOOKED AT IT TODAY, AND I SAW A SUCCESS.
BUT IT ISN'T MINE.
NOT ANYMORE.
AND, YOU KNOW...
IT SURPRISED ME, BUT...
I DIDN'T FEEL SAD.
I...I FELT...
READY.
READY?
FOR THIS? HA HA!
READY FOR A CHALLENGE. HA HA!
AN ADVENTURE.
I'M DONE HOLDING ON TO THE PAST.
I WANT TO BUILD SOMETHING NEW WITH YOU.
I...I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY.
LOOK, THIS-- THIS IS YOUR DREAM.
BUT IF YOU'LL HAVE ME...
GUESS I WAS WRONG.
I'M SORRY.
HEY, IT'S OK.
GOING UNDERCOVER? YOU JUST DID SOMETHING
REALLY BRAVE AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.
IT MAKES SENSE YOU'D FEEL A LITTLE PARANOID.
IT WASN'T FOR NOTHING.
I FOUND YOUR LUCKY PEN.
BAM-BAM. AW.
OH, MY...
I KNEW IT.
I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT! HA HA! I--
OH. RIGHT.
THEY'RE STILL WATCHING.
WHAT DO WE DO? DUMP IT? CALL THE COPS?
NO. THE WAY I'VE BEEN FEELING, WHAT IT DID TO ME...
WHOEVER YOU ARE, I'M DONE.
STOP BEING COWARDS.
COME OUT OF THE SHADOWS AND MEET ME FACE-TO-FACE.
MY SISTERS ARE READY.
THIS IS THE LAST OF THE RUNES.
THEY SHOULD FORM A MYSTICAL SHIELD BLOCKING XIAO.
AND THIS WAY WE KNOW--
WE'LL BE SAFE.
XIAO'S NOT SETTING FOOT IN THE MONASTERY.
HEY, HARPER. HOW'D IT GO?
WE HIT OUR TARGETS, THANKS TO MY TEAM. SEE? OK?
ALL RIGHT. POLLS ARE STILL OPEN.
LET'S HOPE THOSE DOOR KNOCKS HELPED.
WHEN I HEARD
WHAT DELTA SECURITY ENDEAVORS WAS UP TO, I HAD TO ACT.
IN COORDINATION WITH THE D.A.,
WE ARE BUILDING A STRONG CASE...
WHAT'S HE DOING?
FOR MY CONSTITUENTS,
THE PEOPLE OF MY DISTRICT.
THEY'RE WHAT MATTERS TO ME.
HE'S TAKING CREDIT,
JEOPARDIZING THE DELTA CASE.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN FOR US?
UNFORTUNATELY, IT COULD MAKE HIM LOOK STRONGER.
I DIDN'T WANT ANYONE TO FEAR WALKING IN THE STREETS,
BUT DELTA SOLD ME AND THE PEOPLE OF THIS DISTRICT
A FALSE BILL OF GOODS.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
XIE XIE.
AFTER I RELEASED BIAÀNGEÉ INTO THE WORLD,
THOSE BLOOMS GREW ALL OVER, THEN FADED.
BUT IF THE FLOWERS KEPT GROWING HERE,
THERE MUST BE CONCENTRATED BIAÀNGEÉ ENERGY NEARBY.
THE FORGE UNDER THE MONASTERY.
THAT FLOWER DIED RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME.
SOMEONE MUST BE TAKING THE ENERGY.
XIAO?
WHAT IF SHE'S ALREADY HERE?
HUA.
SHIFU.
HOW?
I'LL GO TELL THE OTHERS. NICKY, NICKY.
SISTER, WAIT.
I FEEL SOMETHING DIFFERENT,
SOME KIND OF MAGIC.
THE RUNES?
SHOW ME WHERE THEY ARE.
STOP!
THAT'S NOT PEI-LING.
YOU KILLED MY SISTER,
YET YOU WEAR HER FACE.
I CAN TAKE IT AT WILL,
WHENEVER IT'S USEFUL.
BUT PEI-LING LIVES.
A TRACE REMAINS DORMANT INSIDE ME.
BUT HER EMBER WILL BURN OUT SOON ENOUGH.
THE RUNES, TAKE THEM DOWN
AND LET ME GO,
OR SHE DIES.
HUA.
THE HYBRID.
YOU THOUGHT I CAME FOR HER?
MY PLANS ARE MUCH BIGGER.
I WAS RIGHT ABOUT ONE THING.
YOU FEAR HER.
YOU CALL HER AN ABOMINATION.
WHAT YOU REALLY HATE IS HER POWER.
YOU HATE THAT SHE'S STRONG,
STRONGER THAN YOU.
NO ONE IS STRONGER THAN ME.
PEI-LING LOCKED YOU IN HER MIND.
I BEAT YOU IN A DREAM ON YOUR OWN TURF.
THE EMPEROR HAD YOU KILLED.
FACE IT, XIAO.
YOU'RE 0 FOR 3.
I MAY BE TRAPPED,
BUT I CAN STILL TRAVEL.
UH!
I'M FREE.
YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?
YOU'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
NO!
HYAH!
YOU OK?
YEAH, IT'S JUST A SCRATCH.
XIAO GOT AWAY. WE LOST.
NO. WE SURVIVED.
AND NOW WE KNOW PEI-LING'S NOT GONE.
WE CAN SAVE HER.
HEY. HI.
WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE ANTHONY'S IN THE LEAD.
FOR NOW.
AH, IT'S GETTING LATE.
LAO GONG,
I AM SO PROUD OF YOU.
YOU STAYED TRUE TO YOURSELF,
AND YOU RAN A GREAT CAMPAIGN.
I'M THE PROUD ONE.
YOU LEFT THE RESTAURANT. YOU TOOK A CHANCE.
YOU INSPIRE ME EVERY DAY.
BABA'S DOWN TWO POINTS.
STARTING TO FEEL LIKE A LONG SHOT.
HEY, IT'S NOT OVER YET.
WAIT, SEB.
SO YOU AND MAMA ARE GOING INTO BUSINESS?
YEAH. BIG CHANGE.
I CAN'T BELIEVE MEI-LI'S SELLING THE RESTAURANT.
HUH.
WE GREW UP THERE. YEAH.
BUT MAMA'S TAKING A NICE CHUNK OF CHANGE ON THE WAY OUT,
AND SHE SEEMS HAPPY.
IN THE END, IT'S JUST A BUILDING.
DENNIS, THAT'S HIM.
THAT'S THE GUY WHO'S BEEN FOLLOWING ME.
WAIT. IT'S OK. I'VE GOT THIS.
YOU SHOWED.
I GOT YOUR MESSAGE.
WHO ARE YOU?
SPECIAL AGENT TOM NICHOLS. I'M WITH THE NSA.
THE WHAT?
NATIONAL SECURITY AGENCY.
YOU'VE BEEN ON OUR RADAR, MS. SHEN,
EVER SINCE THAT BAFFLING YET IMPRESSIVE STUNT
BEFORE THE EARTHQUAKE.
MORE RECENTLY, THE OP AGAINST DELTA.
THAT SHOT YOU TO THE TOP OF OUR LIST.
SO YOU'RE A RECRUITER?
IS THIS HOW IT USUALLY WORKS,
YOU SPYING ON YOUR POTENTIAL CANDIDATES?
ONLY WITH HIGH-PRIORITY TARGETS,
THE ONES THAT WE FIND OPERATING IN THE GRAY.
A LOT OF THE WORK YOU'VE BEEN DOING
HASN'T BEEN EXACTLY LEGAL,
BUT YOU'VE PROVED YOUR POTENTIAL VALUE
AND THEN SOME.
YOU FOUND OUR BUG. VERY IMPRESSIVE.
SO YOU'RE OFFERING ME A JOB?
I'M OFFERING YOU A TREMENDOUS OPPORTUNITY.
YOU'D SERVE YOUR COUNTRY, PROTECTING IT
FROM THREATS FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC.
THIS TIME, YOU'D BE DOING IT LEGALLY.
THERE ARE, OF COURSE, OTHER PERKS.
LIKE?
WE ARE AWARE OF THE TERMS OF YOUR PLEA,
YOUR INTERNET BAN.
WE CAN TAKE CARE OF THOSE...IF YOU ACCEPT.
YEAH!
GOOD NIGHT, MS. SHEN.
WHAT HAPPENED?
YOUR DAD PULLED AHEAD.
WHAT?!
LOOK.
NO, WHAT ABOUT YOUR POLL? I MEAN--
JUST ONE POLL.
AND FROM ANTHONY'S DESPERATE MOVE EARLIER,
I'M GUESSING HE HAD HIS OWN.
HE MUST HAVE KNOWN YOU WERE AHEAD.
SO, UH, I ACTUALLY COULD WIN THIS?
YOU DID IT. YOU WON.
WE WON.
OH!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU.
OHH.
HELLO?
HENRY, IT'S ME.
YOU OK?
YEAH. I'M--I'M GOOD. MIA'S SAFE.
XIAO GOT AWAY, BUT AFTER TODAY,
I KNOW WE CAN BEAT HER.
WAIT. WHAT'S ALL THAT NOISE?
IT'S YOUR DAD. HE...
HE WON.
WOW. THAT'S AMAZING.
YEAH, YEAH.
WE'RE, UH, STILL HERE, CELEBRATING.
I GUESS I'M THE FIRST PERSON YOU CALLED.
I GUESS YOU ARE.
LOOK, UH, WE'RE--WE'RE HEADING BACK TOMORROW.
MIA'S COMING WITH US.
WHEN I GET BACK, WE SHOULD TALK.
YEAH, I AGREE.
LET'S TALK.
