00:11:46,580 --> 00:11:47,581
Which you have.
180
00:11:47,665 --> 00:11:51,126
You said, "Perhaps, your sentimentality
will be more at home
181
00:11:51,209 --> 00:11:53,962
with those soft-spined
idealists overseas."
182
00:11:55,923 --> 00:11:57,633
You have your father's memory.
183
00:11:57,716 --> 00:11:59,885
Don't try to ingratiate yourself with me.
184
00:11:59,968 --> 00:12:02,220
-Mel.
-Or that.
185
00:12:02,304 --> 00:12:05,391
[seagulls caw]
186
00:12:06,975 --> 00:12:08,561
Your brother's gone.
187
00:12:09,353 --> 00:12:10,771
[gasps]
188
00:12:12,105 --> 00:12:13,190
What happened?
189
00:12:14,775 --> 00:12:17,778
[sighs]
He crossed the wrong man.
190
00:12:18,821 --> 00:12:19,905
I was distracted.
191
00:12:20,989 --> 00:12:23,325
That's a mistake I can't take back.
192
00:12:23,951 --> 00:12:26,119
[heavy breathing]
193
00:12:27,079 --> 00:12:30,749
Your Jayce Talis has turned his eye
to Hextech weaponry.
194
00:12:30,833 --> 00:12:32,501
[scoffs]
I knew it.
195
00:12:32,585 --> 00:12:34,127
War is coming.
196
00:12:34,211 --> 00:12:37,214
You've let the problems
of your undercity fester too long.
197
00:12:37,297 --> 00:12:38,841
Piltover isn't like Noxus.
198
00:12:38,924 --> 00:12:41,844
War isn't our first and every recourse.
199
00:12:41,927 --> 00:12:46,264
I sponsored Hextech to protect the city,
not burn it to the ground.
200
00:12:46,348 --> 00:12:49,059
It's not conjecture, it's a fact.
201
00:12:49,142 --> 00:12:52,938
Weapons can't be unmade
and they are always used.
202
00:12:53,021 --> 00:12:56,817
I'm here to help guide you
to the right decisions.
203
00:12:56,900 --> 00:13:00,488
-I don't need your guidance.
-We'll see.
204
00:13:02,072 --> 00:13:03,532
Miss Medarda?
205
00:13:04,575 --> 00:13:05,576
-Yes?
-Yes?
206
00:13:08,912 --> 00:13:10,664
He's for me, dear.
207
00:13:14,835 --> 00:13:17,254
I'm off to sample the local cuisine.
208
00:13:20,841 --> 00:13:23,844
[seagulls caw]
209
00:13:25,387 --> 00:13:27,097
[door opens]
210
00:13:29,933 --> 00:13:33,687
We'll present our case
to the Council tonight.
211
00:13:36,565 --> 00:13:37,733
You did all this yourself?
212
00:13:38,567 --> 00:13:40,110
Without even going down there?
213
00:13:41,737 --> 00:13:42,613
[Vi sighs]
214
00:13:42,696 --> 00:13:45,866
And I thought Powder could get obsessed.
[scoffs]
215
00:13:48,661 --> 00:13:51,872
What happened to her, it's not your fault.
216
00:13:55,876 --> 00:13:57,795
When my parents were still alive…
217
00:13:59,838 --> 00:14:01,590
me and Powder
used to share a bed like this.
218
00:14:02,174 --> 00:14:05,093
Except, maybe, half the size.
219
00:14:06,136 --> 00:14:11,141
We played a game where we pretended
to be bigger and bigger monsters.
220
00:14:12,518 --> 00:14:17,064
So she would say, "I'm a slug monster
with venom for ooze."
221
00:14:18,315 --> 00:14:22,778
And I'd say, "Well, I'm a slug-eating crab
with razor spikes."
222
00:14:25,072 --> 00:14:29,702
Sometimes, I… I'd get carried away
and she'd get scared.
223
00:14:32,663 --> 00:14:35,373
I didn't want her to start crying
and wake my parents up, so…
224
00:14:35,999 --> 00:14:38,293
I pretended to chase my own monsters away.
225
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:40,796
I'd say…
226
00:14:41,964 --> 00:14:44,466
"No monster's gonna get you
when I'm here."
227
00:14:46,134 --> 00:14:47,928
Then a real monster showed up.
228
00:14:50,764 --> 00:14:52,307
And I just ran away.
229
00:14:54,309 --> 00:14:55,728
I left her.
230
00:14:57,020 --> 00:14:59,565
[dramatic music]

[Powder laughs]
238
00:15:23,547 --> 00:15:26,508
You know, Powder,
you're stronger than you think.
239
00:15:27,134 --> 00:15:28,093
Vi?
240
00:15:29,762 --> 00:15:31,805
[Vi] I'm so sorry, Powder.
241
00:15:31,889 --> 00:15:34,307
-Your sister is jinx.
-No!
242
00:15:35,809 --> 00:15:37,144
[Vi] Jinx.
243
00:15:37,227 --> 00:15:39,062
No, no. No!
244
00:15:39,146 --> 00:15:40,313
[sobs]
245
00:15:40,856 --> 00:15:43,275
I understand this must be painful.

No!
[whimpers]
247
00:15:45,277 --> 00:15:48,446
-I'm afraid it will only get worse.
-Wait!

No!

What have you done?
254
00:16:28,445 --> 00:16:29,863
I saved her life.
255
00:16:33,033 --> 00:16:34,618

Hmm.

Hmm…
274
00:17:35,178 --> 00:17:36,346
Like this.

Oh, ingenious.

Though these blades
seem improperly pitched.
284
00:18:09,046 --> 00:18:10,422
[Ekko] You're wrong.
285
00:18:11,339 --> 00:18:12,925
It's designed for the fissures.
286
00:18:13,591 --> 00:18:15,010
The air is denser.
287
00:18:15,093 --> 00:18:15,928
[Heimerdinger] Oh.
288
00:18:16,011 --> 00:18:18,305
-[grunts]
-Are you all right, lad?
289
00:18:18,388 --> 00:18:21,767
Yeah, I'm fine, I just sprained my ankle.
290
00:18:23,101 --> 00:18:25,478
Are you Councilor Heimerdinger?
291
00:18:26,438 --> 00:18:29,066
It's just Heimerdinger now.
292
00:18:29,566 --> 00:18:31,401
What are you doing
on this side of the river?
293
00:18:32,360 --> 00:18:34,362
I wanted to offer my assistance
294
00:18:34,446 --> 00:18:36,656
to the citizens of the undercity, but…
295
00:18:37,157 --> 00:18:40,160
it seems I'm unwelcome.
296
00:18:40,660 --> 00:18:42,370
[chuckles]

00:18:42,454 --> 00:18:45,290

[scoffs]
299
00:18:47,250 --> 00:18:51,504
That looks like more than a sprain.
You need medical attention.
300
00:18:51,588 --> 00:18:54,800
I have to get home.
It isn't safe for me here.
301
00:18:54,883 --> 00:18:55,717
[grunts]
302
00:18:55,801 --> 00:18:59,429
I don't know how I'm gonna get there
with my leg busted, and, well…
303
00:19:00,013 --> 00:19:01,306
you're holding my ride.
304

[slurps]
307
00:19:14,527 --> 00:19:17,697
Do they teach military history
at your Academy, Mr. Talis?
308
00:19:18,365 --> 00:19:20,742
It's, um, Councilor Talis.
309
00:19:21,576 --> 00:19:23,036
And I'm not sure.
310
00:19:23,120 --> 00:19:25,580
[Mrs. Medarda] The Alornian General
Sonnem Parlec
311
00:19:25,663 --> 00:19:28,583
used to find ways
to meet his enemies blindfolded.
312
00:19:29,167 --> 00:19:31,920
He said a man's mind
hides behind his body.
313
00:19:32,004 --> 00:19:34,923
Somehow, I doubt he ever tried this.
314
00:19:35,590 --> 00:19:36,800
You're Mel's mom.
315
00:19:37,550 --> 00:19:38,886
Among other things.
316
00:19:39,761 --> 00:19:42,639
[Mrs. Medarda] Squeeze, child.
You won't break it.
317
00:19:44,016 --> 00:19:45,934
I do have other matters,
so if you'll excuse me…
318
00:19:46,018 --> 00:19:48,186
[Mrs. Medarda] The threat
of the undercity is real.
319
00:19:48,270 --> 00:19:51,523
-Your leadership is impotent.
-[scoffs]
320
00:19:51,606 --> 00:19:54,860
We may not be Noxus, but Piltover
isn't as helpless as you think.
321
00:19:54,943 --> 00:19:56,778
[Mrs. Medarda]
Who said anything about Piltover?
322
00:19:56,862 --> 00:20:00,949
The Council is the problem.
The mind hiding behind the body.
323
00:20:01,033 --> 00:20:05,287
Navigating your current crisis
requires expertise you lack.
324
00:20:05,954 --> 00:20:09,374
Do you know what the success rate
for senior Academy inventors is?
325
00:20:09,457 --> 00:20:10,542
[Jayce] Three percent.
326
00:20:11,126 --> 00:20:13,003
We're no strangers to failure.
327
00:20:13,086 --> 00:20:16,714
What makes this the City of Progress is
that we keep trying until we get it right.
328
00:20:17,299 --> 00:20:21,178
So thank you for your advice,
Mrs. Medarda, but I have a city to run.
329
00:20:22,345 --> 00:20:23,513
Wait.
330
00:20:23,596 --> 00:20:25,765
[water sloshes]
331
00:20:26,433 --> 00:20:28,060
[gasps, clears throat]
332
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,604
[Mrs. Medarda] I see why this province
and my daughter have fallen for you.
333
00:20:32,230 --> 00:20:34,149
You have the passion of youth.
334
00:20:34,649 --> 00:20:37,319
I have experience.
335
00:20:37,402 --> 00:20:41,281
I want you to succeed here, Jayce,
to grace the world with Hextech.
336
00:20:41,364 --> 00:20:46,161
But if you don't accept certain realities,
I fear you'll end up like General Parlec.
337
00:20:46,244 --> 00:20:50,082
Slaughtered with your eyes closed.
338
00:20:50,165 --> 00:20:51,624
[suspenseful music]
339
00:20:53,043 --> 00:20:54,794
[Councilor 1]
Three of my suppliers have said
340
00:20:54,878 --> 00:20:57,297
they intend to delay shipments until fall
341
00:20:57,380 --> 00:20:59,549
to give things "time to cool off."
342
00:20:59,632 --> 00:21:02,052
[Mrs. Kiramman] We have greater concerns
than a dip in profits.
343
00:21:02,135 --> 00:21:05,013
The Sheriff betrayed us.
We need better information.
344
00:21:05,097 --> 00:21:08,600
We need to act.
Before anyone else gets killed.
345
00:21:09,226 --> 00:21:11,728
Perhaps Marcus
was operating independently.
346
00:21:11,811 --> 00:21:15,148
What could anyone in the undercity
offer him that he didn't have up here?
347
00:21:15,232 --> 00:21:16,858
It's not what they offered him,
348
00:21:17,442 --> 00:21:19,236
it's what he had to lose.
349
00:21:21,113 --> 00:21:24,532
Councilors, my daughter
has a unique insight into our situation.
350
00:21:25,117 --> 00:21:26,034
Thank you.
351
00:21:27,410 --> 00:21:31,164
Councilors, this is Vi.
She was born in the undercity.
352
00:21:31,664 --> 00:21:34,667
Even though we failed her
in countless ways,
353
00:21:34,751 --> 00:21:38,671
she risked everything to show me
what life is really like down there.
354
00:21:39,256 --> 00:21:43,010
People are starving, sick,
ravaged by Shimmer.
355
00:21:43,885 --> 00:21:45,303
[Caitlyn] They live in constant fear
356
00:21:45,387 --> 00:21:48,140
of the coordinated efforts
of violent crime lords.
357
00:21:48,681 --> 00:21:50,433
One man leads these efforts.
358
00:21:50,517 --> 00:21:51,601
Silco.
359
00:21:52,352 --> 00:21:54,854
We've done investigations of Silco.
360
00:21:54,938 --> 00:21:57,565
They yielded no such level
of organization.
361
00:21:57,649 --> 00:21:59,692
And who led these investigations?
362
00:22:01,611 --> 00:22:03,196
What does this Silco even want from us?
363
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,033
He believes the undercity
should be independent.
364
00:22:06,116 --> 00:22:08,201
He calls it the Nation of Zaun.
365
00:22:08,285 --> 00:22:10,703
[suspenseful music]
366
00:22:10,787 --> 00:22:13,123
What about these?
Do you know who made them?
367
00:22:13,206 --> 00:22:14,832
No, well…
368
00:22:15,417 --> 00:22:17,585
-[Caitlyn] Uh…
-Her name is Jinx.
369
00:22:18,128 --> 00:22:19,712
[Jayce] This Jinx has the Gemstone?
370
00:22:21,214 --> 00:22:23,758
-Then we have to go in by force.
-That could trigger war.
371
00:22:23,841 --> 00:22:27,137
-There are good people down there.
-[Councilor 1] Hmph. Bad ones too.
372
00:22:27,220 --> 00:22:30,182
[Councilor 2] Even if we wanted to invade,
they have Shimmer.
373
00:22:30,765 --> 00:22:32,184
We have Hextech.
374
00:22:32,809 --> 00:22:34,061
What happened to you?
375
00:22:34,144 --> 00:22:36,813
We've been talking about talking
for weeks now.
376
00:22:36,896 --> 00:22:39,107
They're still cleaning the blood
off the bridge.
377
00:22:39,191 --> 00:22:42,194
-When do we say enough is enough?
-Jayce, you don't know war.
378
00:22:42,777 --> 00:22:43,653
I do.
379
00:22:43,736 --> 00:22:48,533
It must be our last resort.
There may be a diplomatic solution.
380
00:22:50,202 --> 00:22:51,244
She's right.
381
00:22:51,328 --> 00:22:52,912

383
00:22:58,668 --> 00:23:01,088
What? You want to negotiate with him?
384
00:23:01,171 --> 00:23:04,132
[Mrs. Kiramman] It may be the only way
to avoid further bloodshed.
385
00:23:04,216 --> 00:23:07,427
[Vi] This is insane.
Did you learn nothing?
386
00:23:07,510 --> 00:23:09,471
You can't talk to him!
387
00:23:09,554 --> 00:23:12,682
He hates you. Everything you stand for.
388
00:23:13,266 --> 00:23:15,310
He will never back down.
389
00:23:18,271 --> 00:23:21,983
-Enforcers, please escort them out.
-Forget it.
390
00:23:22,067 --> 00:23:24,402
[Vi] I remember
where your fancy damn door is.

[Caitlyn] Vi! Wait!
395
00:23:38,875 --> 00:23:41,378
Wait! Where are you going?
396
00:23:41,461 --> 00:23:43,546
I don't know. Back where I came from?
397
00:23:43,630 --> 00:23:45,923
Seems like that's
what everyone up here wants.
398
00:23:46,007 --> 00:23:48,135
-I can fix this.
-You can't!
399
00:23:48,218 --> 00:23:50,928
[Vi] This is how things are.
How they've always been.
400
00:23:51,012 --> 00:23:53,515
I was so stupid to think it could change.
401
00:23:53,598 --> 00:23:57,477
[Caitlyn] There must be something else
we can do. Some other way.
402
00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,812
We'll make a new plan. We have to try.
403
00:24:00,438 --> 00:24:03,066
We tried. Okay? It wasn't enough.
404
00:24:03,150 --> 00:24:06,361
Topside and bottom. Oil and water.
That's all there is.
405
00:24:07,154 --> 00:24:08,363
What about us?
406
00:24:10,907 --> 00:24:11,991
Oil and water.
407
00:24:12,534 --> 00:24:13,743
Wasn't meant to be.

00:24:15,578 --> 00:24:18,748
-You're just saying that.
-[Vi] Do yourself a favor, Cupcake.
410
00:24:19,624 --> 00:24:23,295
Go back to that big,
shiny house of yours and just…
411
00:24:24,504 --> 00:24:27,048

on a private project

for a couple weeks now.

I could have you arrested.
466

You guys really like
to bandy that threat around.

-[Jayce] No.
-[Vi scoffs]

So you just wave an arm,
have someone dragged off,
470
00:28:29,248 --> 00:28:31,543
don't bother to find out
what it does to someone

00:28:31,626 --> 00:28:35,963

-Fuck the Council.

You said you were tired of doing nothing.

that came out of anyone's mouth tonight.

[Vi] Silco controls
the undercity with Shimmer.
492
00:29:37,316 --> 00:29:38,776
Shut down his supply,
493
00:29:38,860 --> 00:29:41,988
and it's only a matter of time
before his own people turn on him.
494

[Jayce] And how do we do that?
495
00:29:43,322 --> 00:29:45,366
[Vi] Take out
his manufacturing facilities.
496
00:29:45,450 --> 00:29:47,869
