-given the Baron's threats, we'd like to recommend that anyone not yet in his custody-

[Silas PA turns on] Once again, brave students of Silas I exhort you to ignore Fraulein Hollis and her seditious opinions.

And I assure you that she too, will soon be in custody- [The not so useless black cat growls in the background]

[Theo] Sir! It's that giant cat again-

[Vordenberg] -regardless of the felonious assaults of her feline paramour on Vordenberg forces!

[More growling]

[Theo] If you'd like to relocate-

[Vordenberg] Schnickschnack und Mumpitz! I do not take orders from some boy.

Fetch me my blunderbus! If I shot the last Sabretooth tiger I can damn well shoot her!

[The Silas PA turns off]

We're running out of time. We need to figure out how to free the students and escape.

Oh, oh oh oh oh oh! We could do like a full-on Butch and Sundance frontal assault!

Kirsch. The Bolivians killed Butch and Sundance.

Nah. They were just freeze-framed in their moment of action-movie glory!

Do you want me to-

No- no- let him have it.

Look. Between the Zetas, the Summers and those whackjob Styrian villagers, we're seriously outnumbered.

We need help.

What about Corvae?

They seemed well-staffed and ruthlessly efficient...

Uh, I think throwing in with the soulless Occult-Resource conglomerate that the Dean wanted

controlling the campus is literally the only thing worse than what is happening now.

Have we found anything in Mattie's files?

Vordenberg's only human.

The problem is that he's the Chair of the Silas Board.

Though there was that note about the Chair receiving their power from the Silas Charter?

Mattie said that too. That her power literally came from the Charter. Can we use that? Like destroy it?

That could work.

Though, we'd need the Original Charter- and who knows what that might do to him...

Something gruesome, if we're lucky.

Perry? You feeling okay?

[Laura's computer pings and up pops a Silas Hangout]

Ugh. What do you two toadies want?

We need your help. [Gag] Sorry. I just vomited in my mouth a little bit.

Uh, look. We made a mistake, okay? I wanted the vampires gone and the Zetas back on top, but

this is bad crazy. He almost blew my head off today trying to kill Catwoman!

And what do you want us to do about it?

We're outnumbered by the Angry Villagers, but there are almost five hundred students caged up in the catacombs.

They don't trust us, but if you asked them, they'd fight, and then we could take back the school.

We'll sneak you across the lines to the catacombs and then go rally our guys.

Or you'll just grab me and take me right to Vordenberg.

It's a risk for all of us. Any one of us breaks and we're done.

Look, I don't know about you, but I did not become a Summer so I could serve some old man

in a rabble of bullies and cowards.

Do you trust them?

Nope.

It's still our best shot.

What if it's a trap? I should go with you-

If it is, I don’t want them hurting anyone but me.

Please don't say that. I don't think I can stand losing anyone else.

You're saying that because you're scared Mattie and Carmilla are right:

That the world is vast and meaningless and the better world we want is just this naive dream. But-

That- that world is worth fighting for.

So, we don't get the perfect happy lives.

I'm ready to suffer and die, as long as it's for the right reason.

The right person.

Oh, oh oh! Theo's giving the sign D-Bear. It's now or never.
