The camera finds Lloyd on the balcony's edge, his back to the dojo, legs dangling over the twilight. A restless wind plays with his pale hair, tangling the scents of damp earth and far-off life.

He closes his eyes, letting the cool air brush his skin, but the settling quiet is an illusion. He knows he's not alone.
