Daytime in Argus. At the Atlesian Military Base, various soldiers and guards work on their jobs. Weiss and Dark are seen walking with Cordovin and Saphron, who is holding her son Adrian in her arm. They are also escorted by the two Nubuck Guards. Dark drags Weiss's large luggage case behind him.

Cordovin: Ah, I was relieved to hear that you both came to your senses, Miss Schnee and Mr. Schnee. Many of us were devastated when we heard you both would be attending... (with disdain) Beacon Academy. Knowing that you'll be returning to Atlas just warms my old heart.

Weiss: (pretending) It was... time to get my act together and go back to my roots.

Dark: (pretending) Yeah, I can't wait to be there!

Cordovin: Oh, I can't wait to see you both follow in your sister's footsteps, Miss Schnee.

Weiss: (with an unenthusiastic smile) Absolutely...

Cordovin: I'm sending two of my best guards to personally escort you both. Make sure General Ironwood hears that part. (winks and walks away)

Nubuck Guard 1: Allow me to assist you with your bag. (hups over to pick up Weiss's luggage) My, what a heavy bag!

Weiss: (grabs the luggage and keepher grip on her luggage) That's alright!

Nubuck Guard 1: Nonsense!

Nubuck Guard 2: Allow me to assist as well!

Dark: We can take care of it by myself!

As Cordovin walks away, she overhears Weiss, Dark and the Nubuck Guards conversation. She stops in her tracks and gains a suspicious look on her face. Saphron notices this.

Saphron: (whispering to Adrian) Just like we practiced.

Adrian nods at his mother. The baby then lets out a loud wail that can be heard throughout the base. Adrian "cries" as he fusses in his mother's arms.

Saphron: (pretending) Oh no! Look at that, he's just going to miss you both so much! You should hurry on out of here!

Nubuck Guard 1: A crying child?

Nubuck Guard 2: We must console it!

The two guards hup over to Adrian as they perform weird poses to amuse him. Cordovin continues walking with an unamused look on her face. While they are distracted, Weiss and Dark quickly get onto the airship with the luggage behind them.

Weiss: That was close.

Ruby: (over earpiece) Is everything okay?

Dark: Yeah, we're fine.

Maria: (from inside Weiss' luggage) Call me heavy... It's all muscle! I'll show them a thing or two about heavy!

Weiss: And, we're on board as well.

Elsewhere, Ruby, Jaune, Nora, Ren, Oscar, Qrow and the three Daniels wait along the cliffside between the forest and the ocean.

Ruby: Alright, we'll all watch our scrolls. The second Weiss and Dark are out of range of the comm tower, that'll mean they are out of range of the radar too.

Yang: (over radio) And that's when Blake steps in. We're almost at the drop off.

In another area, Yang is driving Bumblebee with Blake sitting behind her. Blake has her Scroll out receiving instructions from Terra.

Terra: Okay, remember: one, the radar box is seperate from the rest of the communications equipment. So if you disconnect it properly, it won't take out comms for the rest of the city. Two, this conversation never happened.
