[Love Will Have Its Sacrifices opening theme]
What do you mean?
I mean no.
Just because I was willing to risk my life to save yours doesn't mean I'm willing to betray my sister.
Doesn't make me some crusader.
Carm...
Why are you doing this? I need you to help.
I'm doing this because I'd like to think that you could love me instead of
some romantic ideal you've made up in your head.
Romantic ideal?
Because I think you're better than your long history of murdering and callously discarding people?
Is that what you think of me-?
No. I- uhg...
I didn't mean it like that- I just-
what am I supposed to think when you're all "Caring about people who aren't us is stupid, poptart" and
"Remember that time we ate half of Saigon. Fun times."
That's a part of who I am, Laura.
So is Mattie.
You can't expect all of that to just evaporate because I love you.
If you really loved me then you'd stay.
I need you to be the kind of person that helps and...fights.
You haven't listened to a single word I've said.
I'm done.
Carm! Please, Carm!
I can do it.
The student rep thing. I'll take care of it.
Ya, no. That's-
That's great. That's really- really great. I'm glad. You're going to be really great as the student rep-
Laura.
It's okay, I'm fine. I just- um.
I just have a lot of things to do and so I need to do them. So I'm- I'm just gonna...
Hey, it'll be alright.
It'll be alright.
So...
yeah.
I think-
Carm and I just broke up.
And-
Was I not supposed to want her to be better?
Isn't that what you're supposed to do?
I mean, it's supposed to go:
You love someone and- I'm not even saying that I loved her because we were only together for like a month
and that would be crazy, but-
if I did...
wasn't she supposed to try and be better?
I mean-
The story goes:
You fall in love with a monster,
and then they stop being all monstery!
They redeem themselves, right?
The story isn't just-
fall in love with a monster.
That would be a stupid story.
I don't want to be a part of that stupid story.
[Super sad, break-up piano music]
Well that was embarrassing.
Let's try that again, with eighty percent less wallowing.
We have an evil Board of Governors to thwart, and a University to save.
So the mess that I have made of my love life doesn't even rank.
So without further adieu, here's Danny Lawrence! Here to tell us all about her first meeting with the Board.
That is the worst thing that has ever happened to me.
And Kirsch has been flirting with me for like a month.
Do you think budget details could actually cause a person's brain to bleed?
If it were going to happen anywhere, Silas would definitely be the place.
Yeah.
It's just- we know they're up to something evil with Corvae and the crater, but
A) It's buried in 200 pages of paperwork, and B) even if we figure it out, we're outvoted three to two.
At least we're getting a good look at the players though.
Yeah. There's-
There's Belmonde. Vordenberg.
This guy in yellow robes who's there to represent the "Hasturmenchen",
this lady with greyed out eyes who looks more like an owl than I'm really comfortable with.
But the other two just vote the way Belmonde tells them to.
It's enough to make you miss the Dean.
I mean, at least she was just flat out, up-front, monster-worshipping evil.
Yeah.
Hey-
Thanks for being such a great friend about everything.
Including not rubbing the whole "So you tried to date a vampire" thing in my face.
For what it's worth-
I'm sorry it didn't work out.
Uh- So. I'll just clear out of here.
See ya later, Hollis.
Hey.
You came back.
I wasn't sure if you were going to come back.
Of course I'm back. This is my mother's apartment and I stole it fair and square.
That's not what I meant.
Oh. Yeah I know what you meant.
But if you and your knight in shining gymshorts over there need more space, then
you can find another room.
Okay. One- There's is nothing going on with Danny and me. And two-
all my broadcasting equipment is here, so if you don't want to watch me talk
to my friends who actually care about this school and want to help me, then, you can find another room.
Dream on, creampuff. I'm not going anywhere.
Well neither am I.
Fine with me.
There's plenty of space.
