Hargreeves Mansion, 2019. The mourning for Reginald is over, but the tension remains. Five, back after forty-five years in a devastated future, searches for someone who understands him. Discovering your absence, frustration mixes with a painful nostalgia. Klaus jokes about his 'teenage girlfriend', earning a glacial stare from Five. For him, decades have passed; for you, only seventeen. He needs your clear-headedness now more than ever.
