"In fact, none of us are completely free for prejudice. We all have preconceived ideas about others. Here, "free from" means the lacking in or unencumbered by." Biscuit says as she writes on the board and returns her gaze to the class, pointing to the sentence. "Anyone want to interpret this?" Except for one girl who stands up, attracting her attention to Bisky and smiles, no one else would budge to raise their hands. "Okay. Komugi."

"I need to use the restroom."

"Okay, go." She says to Komugi, motioning for her to leave. She then exits the room as Bisky continues, "Anyone wanna have a crack at it, huh?" She then looks at Neon and asks, "Class President?"

"The truth is, all of us have some sort of prejudice. We all have preconceptions about other people." She finishes while Bisky observes Killua conversing with his classmates, then returns her gaze to Neon and responds. "Hmm, okay. Nice." She exhales as she speaks. "Next, Killua. Stand up." The teenagers all stare back at him as he stands, glancing at Gon before returning his gaze to the teacher. "Yes?"

"What did Neon say a minute ago?" She asks Killua, waiting for an answer. "Ah..." he thinks as he looks at Retz, who returns her gaze. "Ah..." The class laughs when they repeat him. "She was absolutely correct. A hundred percent." Before Bisky asks him another question, the class bursts out laughing even louder at his response. "What was her absolutely correct answer then?"

"Hm... All right." He exhales before continuing. "I- huh?" He says as he glances at the door, drawing the attention of Bisky and the rest of the class to where he's looking. Machi is seen with blood on her face when the door slides open. The students rise up and walk closer to her before she faints and is caught by the teacher. "Machi!"

"Hey. What's wrong? Are you okay?" One of the students approach her and asks her a question. "Is that blood?" Palm shows concern as she looks at Machi's appearance. Machi casts a glance towards Bisky and whispers, "Ms. Krueger."

"Yeah, it's me. Do you recognize me?" Bisky shakes as she asks her. "He grabbed me..." She looks at the ceiling before continuing, she says, "The science teacher grabbed me and locked me up."

"He locked you up? The science teacher?" Bisky's eyes widen as she hears Machi's words. "Mr. Kenji Sato, huh?" The teenagers gasp as they whisper to one another. "He tied me up..."

"Let's go to the infirmary, okay?"

"I told you didn't I? What kind of psycho does this?" Palm asks, looking at her classmates before returning her gaze to the situation. Bisky faces Neon and calls her name. "Neon." She informs her. "Make sure they study on their own. And please don't say anything to anyone until I come back and confirm the facts." She tells Neon as she glances back at the girl's face. "Machi. Can you get up?"

"I'll carry her." Killua says as he carries her on his back. "Can someone help him out please?" Bisky requests as Retz and another student assist him in exiting the room. They're all panting rapidly as they rush to the nursing office as quickly as they can. Retz then notices Machi moving. "Machi."

"What's wrong?" Retz gets asked by the other female. "Guys, hold her still." Bisky adds as they proceed to run down the corridor.

Komugi groans loudly as she opens the door and comes inside the nurse's office, notifying the nurse of her limping. "What's wrong? Do you feel sick?" She asks as she rises from her chair and approaches Komugi. "What do I do?" Komugi whimpers as the nurse becomes overly worried. "Does your stomach hurt? Is it bad? Let me see." The nurse was about to check when suddenly the door bursts open, revealing Bisky and the teenagers.

"Put her on the bed." Bisky hurriedly exclaims as Killua attempts to carefully place Machi on the bed. The nurse takes her temperature and analyzes it. "Her temperature is way too low." She mentions, showing Bisky. "Here, hold it down so she doesn't kick it off." The nurse remarks in reference to the bed sheets. As she growls loudly, they all grasp it at the same time and try to place it on top of her body. "Hold her. Hold her." Killua says as they continue to restrain her.
