-[explosion] -[bird tweeting]

I'm late!

-Ah ! I'm late! I'm late! -[women groaning , Yang gasps]

What was that?

[Jaune] I overslept!

I never oversleep!

Yesterday! Ugh! All the excitement!

Get your head together. You can fix it. You always fix it.

-Jaune! -Can't wait! I'm late!

Any second there's going to be another--

Damn it. Right on time.

Get to town! I'll meet you there!

I'm never this upset when I oversleep.

Uh, what did he mean, "right on time"?

I'm sure we'll find out when we get down there.

Ruby, where's your weapon?

Oh, sorry, still waking up.

Hurry! People are counting on us!

[upbeat music playing]

Whoa.

Who makes a town out of paper?

Hello!

Welcome to our village! We hope that it pleases you!

Would you be so kind as to tell us what you are so that we may serve you?

Serve us?

Your town is on fire!

Oh, no. We are quite safe. We have our hero.

Hyah!

Hooray! Three cheers for the Rusted Knight and his White Rabbit! Hip--

Stop, stop, back up.

There's water everywhere, you'll dissolve!

Hello, water! How may I serve you?

Stop that.

Ugh. I can't believe that almost happened.

It's been ages since I missed the first fire.

Do fires happen often?

Oh, every day.

What?

Oh. Uh, right, I guess, uh...

Introductions.

These are the Paper Pleasers.

They're probably the most polite, most hospitable Afterans around.

Because that's their purpose.

[exhales] When Alyx left me to die,

Juniper found help, brought me to the Paper Pieasers

-who got me back on my feet. -Hey, there.

[Jaune] They work all day, not just serving travelers,

but serving the land they live on too.

They beautify it, make it a place of peace.

-Unfortunately, they're a bit clumsy... -[yelps]

but that also makes them predictable.

I told you to hold these.

Thank you, brave knight!

Heh. Classic Ren.

You named them? After your teammates?

No. I named them after everybody.

Hello! I am the one called Ruby! What are you?

Hate that.

Okay, the disastrous lighting of the morning lantern is dealt with.

That gives us enough time to strategize

before the Calming Pebble Tower crumbles,

crushing the koi pond dam and flooding the entire village,

so I'm thinking, quick brunch?

I could eat.

[Jaune] Ah. My life's work.

Over the years, Juniper and I have been systematically exploring

as many of the nearby acres as possible.

If you think you've seen it all here, let me tell you, you haven't.

[gulps loudly]

What exactly have you been looking for?

Anyone or anything that might be able to take us back home.

Okay, and what have you found?

So far? Not much.

But I've got a really, really good feeling about this one acre we saw

with a bunch of pyramids.

Sorry, um. I'm just trying to make sure I follow.

Do you have any leads at all? Any other plans?

This is the plan.

Look, I'm sorry I didn't solve all our problems by myself

but I can't just run off and let them die.

But between protecting the village, searching for you guys,

and searching for an exit,

we've got a really tight schedule to keep.

Or rather, you've got a tight schedule to keep.

I beg your pardon?

This is the schedule of catastrophes that befall the village every day,

or at least they would if it wasn't for me and June.

With this, you guys can save the day, no problem,

which means I can go out to keep searching without any interruptions.

With Juniper's speed and my familiarity with this place,

we'll find our solution in no time.

Guys, this is it.

Look, if there's one thing I've learned after all these years,

it's that patience pays off.

It's why we're finally back together! I know I can find us a way out, okay?

I know it. I know it.

[gulps]

This isn't crazy.

I'm not crazy.

[clears throat]

This isn't crazy. It's easy.

You know, we still got time before the Pebble Tower falls.

How about I saddle up Juniper and show you around myself?

Point out some of the clumsier Papers. [chuckles]

Just wait'll you guys meet Neptune.

Damn it, Jaune. This is isn't a plan, it's a to-do list.

He's obviously been through a lot.

Yeah...

[Blake] We can be frustrated later. Right now, Jaune needs us.

And we still need him. We just can't count on him.

Then who does that leave us with?

It's obvious we need someone to guide us,

or we could end up thrown back in time or killed by the Tree or worse.

-Well, if that's how everybody-- -[Paper Pleaser] The great Tree does not kill.

That is what we keep trying to tell him.

But our hero still insists that we never ascend.

What?

I do not wish to be rude,

but our work has been completed for quite some time.

Because of us, the land is beautiful, but we have realized that, like ourselves,

it is also very delicate.

We would like to make something that is pleasing,

but also resilient!

Because of this, we are ready to leave ourselves and merge with the Tree,

so that it might return us as something new!

But our hero is displeased by this course of action.

We tried reaching out to the Tree, but our hero forbade it.

Then the wisest of our village

suggested breaking from our physical forms

so that the winds might carry us back to the Tree.

But our hero is clever and brave, always keeping us from harm.

You must understand, the Tree does not kill,

it resurrects and rebuilds.

We do not wish to displease our hero

and I hope I have not displeased you,

but we so desperately wish to return to the Tree,

to return home so that we may carry on with our work.

Return home, huh?

[Paper Pleaser] Oh, do not be sad!

The wisest are going to topple the Pebble Tower today!

I am sure it will work this time!

What makes you so sure?

[Paper Pleaser] Nothing!

That's so sad.

Weird, but sad.

But it also means Jaune might not be totally right about the Tree.

It's not death, it's rebirth.

From a certain perspective, maybe.

But, what happened to Lewis, then?

-Jaune said-- -Jaune wasn't there.

The Cat wasn't even there!

None of us know the full story and we'll never learn anything

babysitting these villagers.

We have to convince Jaune to let them go.

But how? He's clearly not all there.

[gasps]

Is that what you think?

[door slams]

But what if the Cat was telling the truth?

Maybe not about everything, but about the Tree!

[Jaune] The Tree's the last thing you should listen to them about.

They're just doing what they're designed to do.

They don't care what happens when you get there!

We're not listening to them! We're listening to the Afterans!

And they're telling us that the Tree is nothing to be afraid of,

that they want to go.

They don't know what they want. You've seen the way they act.

Nothing here is that straightforward, okay?

Afterans are all either too clever, too stupid, or too crazy to trust!

[Paper Pieasers groan]

Then why do you care so much about this village?

Because I can actually protect these people!

[earth rumbling]

[suspenseful music playing]

[growling]

-[roars] -[shrieks]

[Paper Pieasers screaming]

They found us.

[whistles]

I am not letting them down.

If those Walkers make it down here, those Afterans will never ascend.

Then we won't run this time.

[roars]

[all grunting]

-Thank you. -Stay focused!

[dramatic music playing]

[all grunting]

Phew!

Jaune!

? You don't need me anymore ?

? You don't see me anymore ?

? I don't know who.. . ?

Missed.

Hating.

Thinking.

Waiting.

Wanting.

Drooling.

Craving.

Tasting.

[Little] Ruby!

Yes!

Wanting!

[grunts]

Hating.

Yes!

Ready!

Starving!

Taking!

[Yang] Ruby!

-[roars] -[Blake grunts]

[yells]

[screaming]

The Walkers from the market.

But that's...

Those were more than just her usual tricks.

They eat and grow and how has she gotten so powerful?

Well, she didn't do it by standing around.

I know you may not care about protecting this village,

but you could at least help your friends when they're in dan--

[whimpers]

Ruby?

-Are you...? -[shouting in distance]

[Paper Pleaser 1 ] Hey! Hey!

No, no, no!

What time is it? No!

-[Paper Pleaser 2] I'm ready. -[Paper Pieasers shouting]

No!

Oh, Jaune.

[Jaune] I couldn't save them.

I was supposed to save them,

and they're dead.

[trills softly]

No, Jaune. They're gone, but they're not dead.

They'll be back.

Yeah. It's what they wanted.

Right, Ruby?

Why are you asking me?

Um...

-We just-- -[Ruby] Because I'm the leader?

Because I'm just supposed to have something to say?

Because I don't.

I mean, why do I have to be the leader anyway?

Why do I have to always be the one to pick people up?

What about me?

No time, right?

Gotta get home. Gotta help Jaune.

Gotta find someone who isn't just going to screw everything up.

Gotta stay positive! Right?

Smiles all around.

Maybe even finally get our feelings sorted out.

Good for you, by the way. We're all so happy for you!

Hey.

I'm sorry, is this a bad time?

Are we supposed to be mourning Jaune's make-believe friends?

[Jaune] They're gone because of you.

The Walkers came for you because Neo hates you!

Oh, and let's not forget the reason we're in the Ever After in the first place

is because of your plan that didn't work.

"What about you"?

It's all about you!

Jaune--

[voice cracking] I'm sorry, I-- I know I'm not okay, I'm not right, but...

how am I supposed to be?

I've been alone for so long.

Here.

On that bridge.

I was the only one that could do it,

I was the only one!

And I...

And now I have to live with that forever...

[waves lapping]

...in here or back home.

Guys, I know things are bad but--

Shut up.

Don't do that.

Just don't.

[waves continue lapping]
