Previously on
"The Nine Lives of Chloe King"...

- I can't believe you really died.
- I know.

One more innocent
victim dead because the Mai

are still allowed
to roam the earth.

I kissed him, and now he's dead.
It kinda sounds like my fault.

- You're sure no one saw you coming out of his apartment?
- I'm sure.

All I can think about
is kissing you.

I have so many questions. I still
don't know how all this works.

I'll answer any questions you have,

- but you can't keep seeing that guy.
- Brian?

Alek.

Hey, Chloe.

Hope I didn't startle you.

What are you doing here?
I could have killed you.

Not likely.

You do seem a little tense.

Deranged psycho killer still after
me, so yeah, maybe a little.

I can help you relax.

No?

- Don't say I didn't offer.
- What do you want?

I thought I just made
that fairly clear.

But you do have a million
questions about being Mai.

Well, they're about
to be answered.

- By you?
- God, no.

Our illustrious leader is back.
She wants an audience.

With me?

Chloe, there's some
groceries in the car.

Can you give me a hand?

I'll take that as a no.

She wants to see me now now?
I can't go out tonight.

If it's easier for you, I'm
sure she could just come here.

No, that is definitely not happening.

- My mom would freak.
- Oh, I don't know.

My freak meter is fairly high.

But there are limits.

Mom, hi.

This is Alek.

We go to school together.

Alek, this is my mom.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Uh, we were just studying.

Yeah, I got that from all the books.

He was just going.

I'll see you tomorrow.

You're home early.

Mmm!

I love you. Call me
later if you need me.

That's not serious
talk face, is it?

I'm afraid she's back.

- You want it standing or sitting?
- Neither.

- Not an option.
- Sitting.

You're growing up. I get that.

This one has a preamble?

- Chloe.
- Sorry.

And I'm all for it, you
know, pro growing up.

Can't stop it even
if I wanted to,

but that means some things
are gonna have to change.

Now I'm not saying that
I don't trust you.

Mom, I told you last
night, it was nothing.

And that may be true,

but I think we need
a new house rule.

No boys in your bedroom
when I'm not home.

Alek is not my boyfriend.

He's really not even a friend.

- And Brian?
- No no no.

Brian... Brian and I are...

Believe me when I tell you,

you do not have to worry.

Nothing is or will
be happening ever.

Now that I don't believe.

No boys in my room. Got it.
Are we done?

Oh, we're not done.
I don't recognize that face.

This is "my little girl's becoming woman

and I'm afraid of losing her" look.

She's not going anywhere.

Now we're done and you can go.

Right after you put your
dishes in the dishwasher.

Oh, so close.

- Chloe, what's wrong?
- I think he's following me.

The scar-faced freak, he's back.

I was watching. I didn't
see anyone following you.

Wait. That was you?

Yeah, someone is always
with you, Chloe.

Next time you might want to give
me a "hey, Chloe, up here."

But thanks.

So how's your shoulder?

All better.

Look, Jasmine...

Truly, I'm fine.

You know you have to come
see us tonight, right?

Honestly, I don't think
I'm ready for it.

Do not make me throw the whole knife-in-
the-shoulder thing in your face.

Trust me. It'll make your
life and mine a lot easier.

If you don't come to her, my mom
will definitely come to you,

and nobody wants that.

Your mom?

She's the leader of the Mai?

Just of all the Mai here in San Francisco.

Okay, that's a little better.

Alek made her sound kind of scary.

Who says she's not?

Uh, Jasmine?

You've gotta let me come tonight.

I don't really think this
is plus-one kind of thing.

I bet there's gonna be some
kind of big induction ceremony,

with torches and chanting.

No torches. No chanting.

Jasmine would have told me, right?

Why do you think she
wants to see you?

I bet you have to prove
that you're the Uniter.

I'd be happier if she
proved I wasn't.

Or maybe you have to fight
her in a death match.

Or maybe they're gonna kill you,
see if you can come back to life.

Paul, seriously, I'm stressed out enough

without you going all
graphic novel on me.

Alek, dude, you
gotta hook me up.

- Can I go too?
- Go where?

You know, to see your lair.

My lair?

Why don't you just take out an
announcement in the school paper?

He asked what I was doing tonight.

- That was a no, right?
- Yeah, that was a no.

What about tonight? You're supposed
to help me rehearse, remember?

She's going to meet the mysterious

and leather-clad leader of the Mai.

Also known as Jasmine's mom.

Chloe, you promised.

Amy, there's a chance I could be
killed in a ceremonial sacrifice.

A little perspective.

Oh, please, you have gabillion lives.
You'll be fine.

That's the kind of
reassurance I'm looking for.

Singing one of my songs
in public was your idea.

I only signed up because
you begged me to.

- You said...
- That you'll be great.

You're an amazing songwriter,

and I will be there
tomorrow to support you.

Do not panic.

You'll be fine. I'll
help you relax.

Why is that the universal boys'
solution to pretty much everything?

Excuse me, is this seat taken?

Chloe, wow. What a crazy coincidence.

Of all the coffee places in San Francisco.

What are the odds of running into you

at the one next door to where I work?

I know. Pretty strange, huh?

- Must be fate.
- That must be it.

Okay, truth.

I wasn't really just in the neighborhood

or craving a latte,

or in the market for a used book.

Please tell me you know
where this is going.

I think I do, but I
wanna hear it anyway.

Do you wanna get
together this weekend?

I was right. I do like hearing it.

Then I will say things just
like that repeatedly and often.

There's a new music festival
in marin on Sunday afternoon.

And if you're interested, I think I
might be able to still get tickets.

New music, my favorite kind.

Great. Then Sunday.

Yeah, unless I run into you before then.

I don't know if you know,
but I am here every day.

I think I heard that somewhere.

Chloe, you ready?

So I'll see you.

Unfortunately, I've gotta go.

Bye.

You've been out there all day.

What's the hold up?

Patience. I just have to get her alone.

Just do it.

There's not gonna be like a
ceremony or anything, is there?

No, I'd probably call
it more of a sacrifice.

There's nothing to be nervous about.

All new Mai come here. Even the
ones who aren't the Uniter.

Though it's best not to look
her directly in the eyes.

Did I mention she's killed at
least 12 members of The Order

with her bare hands?

It's actually closer to 15.

- Hey, mom, we're home.
- I am starving.

Got something to eat?

Wow. The Mai are doing okay.

Mom.

This is Chloe.

Hi.

Valentina.

If we'd only known.

I'm so sorry for everything
that you've been through.

Jasmine was amazing.

I'm sure she was.

But I wanna hear your
story for myself. Come.

You have lived so much
in such a short time.

Yeah, it's been a little crazy,

but I'm happy now. It's
good to get some answers.

I just wish we were about
to find you sooner.

But you were born
during such dark times.

So many Mai were
scattered and lost.

It's part of my job
to try and find them.

Don't forget to tell her
how I saved your life...

Twice.

Though some of them I wouldn't
occasionally mind giving back.

He lost his parents in
one of the slaughters.

What's that?
Is that Bastet?

I'm impressed.

It's a khopesh.

Ironically, The Order once
used it to behead my...

Sometimes it's good to remember.

Why do they wanna kill me? Us?

Ignorance, fear,

a feud that goes back
thousands of years.

But mostly a mistaken belief that
Mai are a danger to the human race.

Do you see that?
Above the fireplace.

It's beautiful.

It's the oldest piece I have.

Perhaps 3,000 years.

It's about the coming of the Uniter.

We've been waiting a very long time.

Are you sure I am
who you think I am?

I've never been so sure of
anything in my entire life.

- Nine lives to live.
- And nine to endure.

Kinda sticks with you.

Nine lives to accomplish much,

but each life more
complicated than the last

and each death more painful
than the one before.

I'm sorry, but I think that
you should know the truth.

I don't wanna die again.

I'm doing everything
within my power

to make sure that
that doesn't happen.

The Mai are searching for
The Order's assassin as we speak.

But what if they can't find him?

Then we're gonna take you
away and put you into hiding.

Sometimes with things of such value,

there's no other choice.

I'm sorry, Chloe, but your
life is no longer your own.

Home. Late. Sorry.

I kinda lost track of time.

I just...

Mom?

Mom.

Mom!

Mom! Mom, where are you?

- Mom! Oh my god.
- My goodness, what is the matter with you?

I'm just worried about you.

And yet you're the one
who's an hour late.

- Did you eat?
- I'm good.

All right.

Oh, I'll do that.

If this is your way of apologizing
and avoiding a lecture,

I am all for it.

So I got your text, but it was
a little short on details.

- Who's Jasmine?
- A friend from school. You don't know her.

Lot of new friends.

No, just one.

But you would love
their apartment.

I mean, she and Alek just
have the best setup.

And the view is incr...

Continue.

That was pretty much it.

So when you said you were going
to a girlfriend's house,

what you actually meant was that you
were going to a girlfriend's house

to meet up with that
boy from your bedroom.

Okay, yes, he was there, but
that wasn't why I was going.

Chloe, I thought we
didn't lie to each other.

Now that I believe has been
a long-standing house rule.

I'm sorry.

What would you do if I just
never came home one day?

Oh my god. Chloe.

Why would you even ask me that?

That has got to be a
mother's worst nightmare.

Every time you're
even a minute late,

it flashes...

Nice try. You're still in trouble.

I would spend every waking
moment of every day

trying to find you.

Me too, you.

Would I be in less trouble if
I folded the whites as well?

You unload the dishwasher,

- we'll pretend it never happened.
- Deal.

Don't lie. I need to
be able to trust you.

What do you mean take you away?
You can't let them do that.

They really weren't giving
me much of an option.

Then we're not going to
let them do that. Paul?

Do you know how long I've
dreamt of being swept away

- to fulfill an ancient destiny?
- Sadly, yes.

- Not helping.
- No, he is.

Look, I can't take this
too seriously, okay?

I just have to believe that they're
finally gonna catch this guy

- and stop him.
- But he could be anywhere.

Is it even safe for
you to be outside?

Supposedly I'm being watched at
every moment. Maybe we all are.

Every moment?

Why? Is that bad?

No, I just might wanna
change what I wear to bed.

So are you excited for tonight?

Chloe, you're being hunted
by a deadly assassin,

and you can disappear at any moment.

Like you said, a little perspective.

She took her name off the list.

I'm breaking up with you.

Amy.

You're putting it back on.

No, the idea of standing up there
in front of all of those people...

'Cause you so hate attention?

I'm not worried about
them looking at this.

But if I get up there and
sing one of my songs,

then the fantasy is over.

In my imagination,
people love them.

What if in reality
it's not so much?

You're a crazy person.
Here's what we're gonna do:

Tonight you're just gonna
sing directly to me,

like in your room... no judging.

And I will be right there in the
front row loving every minute of it.

I kinda need something
like this right now.

And I thought I was the bossy one.

Don't worry. You still are.

And we're getting back together.

Just so I can break up with you again.

- Here you go, Chloe.
- Thanks.

There you go.

I think she's here for you.

So this is where you work?

Yeah, it's kind of my
extracurricular activity.

People have been deciphering
the prophecies for generations

and no one ever thought to look
for you in a used clothing store

off of market.

I'd be really okay if they stopped
looking and just went away.

That's never gonna happen.

What if I don't wanna be the Uniter?

That's like wishing you
didn't have blue eyes.

Some things simply are.

Chloe, I'm sorry if I came
on too strong last night.

I just wanted to make
sure that you understood

the seriousness of what's happening.

You have nothing to be frightened of.
We're here for you.

- And you're here for us.
- But my friends and family...

Might not fit into
your new life.

And there's nothing that
can be done about that.

It's for your safety
as well as theirs.

We might co-exist,

but we don't truly live
in the same world.

Chloe, you're destined for greatness.

Why does that sound like the worst
thing that anyone has ever said to me?

I need to go to work.
I'm already late.

Here, let me help.

Thanks.

Glad to hear the rumors about you
being here every afternoon are true.

So Sunday...

I don't wanna push my luck,

but do you think you might
wanna head out a little early,

get some food in sausalito? I
know this great Indian place.

- Brian.
- I also know this great thai place.

See, I came prepared.

You all right?

I don't know if I can do this.

We're not talking about lunch, are we?

Please please,

do not take this personally.

Probably not possible.

I really like spending time with you,

but I just don't think you and I

can ever really go
past where we are now.

- I've just got so much stuff going on.
- Please.

Just don't start listing reasons.
I get it.

You just wanna be friends.

I'm glad you told me.
That's cool.

I guess I just don't get
why between yesterday

- and today...
- I'm sorry, but I mean it.

I really do wanna be friends.

Yeah, that'd be great.

I don't have a lot of friends
here yet, so that is good.

But I should let you
get back to work.

All right.

- Thanks, Neil.
- You're welcome.

Oh god! Oh my god!

I'm so sorry.

Happy to help.

Hey, mom, home for dinner.
I swear.

I'll let her know.

- Where's my mom?
- I'll be in touch.

Please, don't hurt...

...Her.

Mom, pick up your phone.
Pick up your phone.

Mom.

- Hello?
- Mom, hi.

I called you. Are you okay?

Yeah, honey, sorry. I thought
I heard the phone ring,

but I was in the tub. It
was that kind of day,

the least of my problems being that
I lost my cell phone somewhere.

Listen, I just wanted
to let you know

I'm gonna be home a little late.

Don't go anywhere, okay?

I wasn't planning on it.

- I love you.
- I love you...

Hmph.

Your mother is safe. We have several
Mai watching your house right now.

- I should be with them.
- No, Chloe, that's exactly what he wants.

He wants to get you alone.

We still have the element of surprise.

He's not expecting us
to be on the attack.

And we'll be here when you get back.

When they get back? Wait.

- Aren't we going with you?
- No.

I admire your bravery, but
there's too much at stake.

But I can't let you fight my fight.

This is all our fight, Chloe.

You might have eight lives left,

but each one is more precious
than all of ours combined.

Let's go.

Alek, you have to look out for my mom.

Make sure she's all right.

You heard Valentina.
They're on it.

I know, but I'd just...

I'd feel better if you were there.

Please.

Don't worry. I'll go.

She's gone, isn't she?

- She's locked away in some cave somewhere.
- She would have called.

They don't have reception in caves.

She'd better not be gone because this
whole stupid thing was her idea.

Her idea? You've been talking
about this for two months.

Do you know how many
conversations we've had

just about what
you're gonna wear?

Your job right now is to nod
sympathetically and agree with me.

You know, for a
very small person,

- you're unusually strong.
- Sorry.

It's Chloe. You know she'd
be here if she could.

Chloe, where are you?
Are you all right?

I'm so sorry.

Something came up with my mom.

I'll tell you about it later.

I don't believe you.

- Amy.
- No. Are you in trouble?

I can hear it in your voice.

It's not like I don't know you.
Can we help?

Amy, listen, what would
help me right now

is if you went up there and
just blew everyone away.

That would oddly really
help me right now.

I'll do my best.

Thanks, Chloe.

Is she okay?

I don't know.

But I'm supposed to sing to her.
It's sort of what I planned.

So sing to me instead.

I'll be right here.

It'll just be the two of us.

You always laugh when I
sing you one of my songs.

- Always.
- I won't. Not this time.

I promise.

One of the earliest
depictions of The Order

doing what they do best...

Hunting Mai.

They're never were any lions in England.

Humans tend to be superliteral.

Why didn't you tell Amy
what was going on?

I didn't want her to worry. If she knew I was
locked away in a tower hiding from scarface,

she'd be here in two seconds
kicking down the door.

She's my best friend.

I get it.

Thanks for watching out for me.

Again.

I eat popcorn when I'm nervous.

Then I hope you have a lot.

I don't know what I'd do if
something happened to my mom,

or if I could never see her again.

I went away to camp once for
two weeks when I was 10,

and I think she called
a hundred times.

The camp was not happy.

My mom went away once for three
months and called twice.

It's all right. She's got a
ton of responsibilities.

I don't need her to hold my hand.

- But sometimes it's nice.
- Everybody's different.

She's just tough on me because she
always wants me to do my best.

Butter or no butter?

Butter, please.

What do you want?

To see you alone.

Just tell me where.

I think it's done.

Everything okay?

Yeah yeah, that was
Paul just checking in,

let me know how it's going.

You're popular.

Hello.

Look, so I ended up
getting those tickets

and I'm not gonna use 'em, so if you
have somebody you wanna go with...

How about a blinker next time?!
Sorry.

So let me know.

I'll leave them for you at work.

Where are you?

We need to go. Come on.

So did I miss something
this afternoon?

What?

You dump me and two hours
later you ask me for a ride.

- Brian.
- Never mind. It wasn't really a question.

Your friend doesn't live in
a very good neighborhood.

- I didn't dump you.
- Friends.

I know.

I so didn't mean to hurt you.

And I wasn't lying. I didn't
know what else to say.

I didn't wanna lead you on.

- You have a boyfriend.
- No.

No, Brian, no.

I... I like being with you.

I like talking to you.

I just...

I just don't think I
can do more than that.

And that in my mind
came out as friends,

which I totally meant.

All right, pull over here.

- This is it.
- You sure?

Yeah.

Thanks for the ride. Really.

Wait. Let me walk you inside.

No, this is something
I have to do alone.

How long are you gonna be?
Do you want me to wait?

You found me.

It was easy.

Just look for the skuzziest
place imaginable

and there you are.

It's nice to see you again, Chloe.

That's funny.

I was just thinking about how
horrible it is to see you.

This ends now.

I couldn't agree more.

It's Chloe. Leave a message.

Hey, I'm not real clear on
how long you're gonna be,

so I'm taking off.

I guess just call me if
you need a ride back.

You pose an interesting problem.

Eight lives left.

Let me go!

And then I thought, why not just treat
you like any unwanted kitten...

Just put you in a sack

and toss you in a river?

They say

drowning is actually the
most painful way to die.

But it is efficient.

Every time you come back to life,

you'll gasp for air,

but there won't be any.

I suggest you make this last one count.

Now you got a matching set.

Chloe, are you okay?

Come on, we gotta
get out of here.

Let's go back.

You look good.

You were right about one thing:

This ends now!

Goodbye, Chloe.

Jasmine, no!

Apparently my orders were not very clear.

I'm sorry.

- There wasn't time...
- You did well.

Look, this is my fault.
I'm sorry.

I didn't have much of a choice.

Well, maybe next time you'll listen to me.

Sooner or later you're going
to have to accept who you are.

But you're young. You'll learn.

It's over now.

Let's go home.

Chloe!

You said we should go home.

That's where I'm going.

Chloe!

You waited for me.

You were amazing.

And I say that not as boyfriend
me, but just regular me.

Thanks.

But I don't mind hearing
from boyfriend you,

who was crying like a giant baby.

You could see that?

You were in the front row.
It was very sweet.

I stabbed myself in the leg with a fork.

I was afraid I was gonna laugh
and wanted it to be perfect.

Don't be mad.

How could I be mad?

That's like the sweetest thing
anyone's ever done for me.

It really hurt.

♪ I don't think and I don't mind ♪

♪ But let's leave all that junk behind ♪

♪ Take it easy... ♪

Thanks again for the ride.

So you really wanna go on Sunday?

Yeah, I really do.

All right, then I'll see you Sunday.

Bye.

- Alek.
- I heard what happened.

You've been here the whole time?

Of course.

You asked me to.

Tangle patrol.

So why did you ask me
that question yesterday?

You're not planning on
going anywhere, are you?

Nope. No such luck. I think
you're stuck with me.

Me too, you.

So is everything really
okay with you, kiddo?

Nothing that curling up with
my mom won't make better.
