The opening cuts to a shot of Beacon Academy the next day following the Beacon Dance, then cuts to inside Ozpin's office, with General James Ironwood and Glynda Goodwitch keeping the headmaster company.
Ironwood: They were here... (raising his voice) Ozpin, they were here!
Ironwood angrily slams his fist against Ozpin's desk.
Glynda: We're very much aware of that! Thank you, James.
Ironwood: Fantastic! You're aware! Now are we going to do something about it or should we just stay the course and continue to ignore what's right in front of us?!
An alert sound plays, signifying that someone has arrived on the elevator.
Ozpin: Come in.
Ruby Rose and Rody Azuris step out and into the room.
Ruby: Sorry it took so long. Someone accidentally hit all the buttons on the elevator on the way up here. (pausing before quickly explaining herself) It wasn't me.
Rody: (slightly irritated and sarcastic) Gee, then who else could it have possibly been? Because I didn't do it. (Ruby doesn't look at him and whistles, while sweatdropping)
Ozpin: Thank you for coming, you two. How are you feeling?
Rody: Pretty good, albeit slightly irritated.
Ruby: Okay, I guess. I'd feel better if my bad-guy-catching record wasn't O-for-three.
Everyone stares silently.
Rody: Tough crowd, tough crowd.
Ruby: Okay, so that's the tone we're going for, got it.
Ironwood: Ruby, Rody, I feel it's appropriate to let you know that I think what you both did last night is exactly what being a Huntsman is all about. You recognized a threat. You took action. And you did the very best you could.
Ruby: Thank you, sir.
Rody: Thank you.
Ozpin: Now, the general here has already informed us of the events that... transpired last night, but now that you've rested, we were wondering if you had anything to add.
Glynda: Was anyone else with her? Did she look familiar to you at all?
Rody: She had black hair, but that's the only notable thing I could tell you about without getting pervy about.
Ruby: I... I don't know. She was wearing a mask, and she never said anything to me. But I know she fought with glass.
Rody: I don't think that was her Semblance, though. Her actual Semblance may be closer to fire manipulation. Her clothing lit up whenever she attacked. Kinda like my master a few years ago.
Glynda: Save for the glass, that sounds like the woman I fought the night we met Ruby.
Ironwood: Embedding Dust into clothing is an age-old technique. It could have been anyone.
Ruby: Wait. You think this girl is connected to Torchwick and the White Fang?
Ozpin: It's possible. But we still lack the required evidence to link the two together.
Ruby: Actually, I... I think I remember her saying something about a hideout, or something, in the southeast. Just outside the Kingdom.
Ozpin: Interesting.
Glynda: I thought you said the intruder never—
Ozpin: Thank you for your cooperation, Ruby. Why don't you go and spend some time with your team? You have a big day ahead of you.
