"Saraya! I almost didn't recognize you."

Julia, Paige's mother, stands up and embraces her daughter.

"Stop! Stop! I found her. I found Mortaquor."

Julia's crew stops fighting and retreats.

"You must meet the rest of your family."

Paige's face glows and she nods.

"I'll be right back, guys." Paige reassures the team.

Seth fakes a smile. After Paige leaves, Seth assembles the team together.

"I don't trust her family."

Stephanie nods, "Neither do I. How do you just attack a group of people then leave as if you've done nothing?"

"I don't know but it's mad sketchy." Sasha adds.

"Look at their ship. Finn, what does their sign represent?"

Finn lifts his eyebrow at Bliss then studies the sign.

"Vegliare. It means umm... I don't know it's not anything I know."

"It means 'keep watch' in Italian."

The team eye Sasha.

"And how do you know that?"

"I stole a couple of books from Vickie, Steph. Sorry, I like education." Sasha sarcastically replies as Seth stares at the sign then asks,

"Keep watch of what?"

"Could be anything." Bliss responds.

Meanwhile:

Paige hugs and wrestles her brothers then stops when she feels a sharp pain.

"Paige, are you alright?"

"Paige? Paige!"

Paige vomits blood then collapses.

Hours Later

Julia speaks with the team.

"I think it's best if Paige were to come with us, her blood condition is too severe and--"

Seth interrupts Julia.

"You want Paige to go home? With you?"

"Yes. It's best for her."

Paige comes out from the lower bunker.

"I think I can make my own bloody decisions."

Seth walks over to Paige and hugs her.

"Are you okay?"

"Yes, Seth, I'm okay."

"How long did you except to keep this a secret?"

Paige starts to cry.

"It's been 3 months."

"3 months?! Paige, you could've killed yourself."

"I know."

Julia slowly approaches Paige.

"I don't want to make you rush this decision but my ship has to sail."

Julia hugs Paige then walks to the captain's bunker.

"Paige, the decision you make tonight is up to you. Just know that we support you."

Stephanie hugs Paige hoping it's not the last time. Paige embraces Sasha, then Finn. She proceeds to go into the infirmary to give Bliss one last hug.
