(Scene opens to an outside view of the school)

(Balloon letters are arranged to form "PROM 3071" in a large room, lights are shut off one by one.)

(In the hallway, the lights continue flickering as the screen changes to show four "Missing" posters". A female Worker Drone pants, running down the hallway. She stops short by an unknown force that shatters her glasses. A nearby security camera is surrounded by a red glow and forcefully turns toward the wall.)

Doll: (Appears farther down the hall, the same red energy crackling through her fingertips. With one swipe, she yanks the Worker Drone's arm from her body. Slowly approaching the Worker, she reveals a cleaver knife that shifts to a quantity of three. She tosses the cleaver knife towards the camera and the screen goes black.)

(Scene shifts to Doll's room wherein two robotic bugs scutter across the floor. One attacks the other, but is soon squished by Doll as she enters the room.)

Doll: Opens her book bag and places holographic books onto a nearby bookshelf. She crosses a name off of a list of prom queen candidates - presumably the name of the Worker Drone whom she had previously dismembered at the beginning of the episode.)

Doll: Мам, Пап, я вернулась. (I'm back, Mom, Dad.)

Alex:So you're Doll Right? The Daughter of Yeva

Doll Summon her Absolute Solver.

Doll:что ты хочешь(What Do you want)

Alex:I have a job for Doll

(Screen fades to black again)

[Flashback to Heartbeat]

Uzi: What... are your things? (Camera shows a quick shot of N in the previous episode)

[Back to present]

Text on Uzi's face: SLEEP MODE [GUILT: ACTIVE]

(Uzi wakes up on the floor with piles of papers and books surrounding her. The camera pans to a large wall with an assortment of numerous documents, specifically the card that N's apology card.)

[Uzi groans and transitions into a montage of her "guilt" being shown throughout the day]

Rebecca: (kicks Uzi as she opens her locker, causing her to drop a book) Yeah, meeting Brad in an hour.

Uzi: (throws a book towards the Worker Drone, which instead hits Braidon in the head by accident)

Rebecca: Can you imagine going to prom alone?

Trevor: Ha! (models finger puppets) I'd be all like, "I don't deserve happiness."

Uzi: (sighs)

(She spots the aforementioned board of missing drones and, cackling, grabs them to add to her billboard of murder-related documents, only to find that the documents had been earlier removed by her father, Khan.)

Khan: (shuffles through the papers and gently places them on a shelf, sighing)

Sign on the wall: NORI'S KOOKY INSANE STUFF

Khan: (closes the door and walks away, whistling)

Uzi: (Crouched down, turns towards Khan) MY crazed ramblings! Stay out of my FREAKING ROOM!

Khan: (Reaches for her shoulder. Uzi isn't in the mood) Personal space for a very alarming coping mechanism isn't covered under a... non-optional (reads from guide booklet) family support... structure!

Uzi: (swipes the booklet away) I'm sorry for being vulnerable for FIVE SECONDS, okay? You were never there for me. If you wanna help now, stay distant.

(Khan is let down by this statement)
