After Bernard’s capture, Leigh-Cheri refuses to see A’ben Fizel and won’t talk to reporters, who are eager to find out more about her plan for the monarchy of Mu. She sends Bernard a message, and his reply is so touching it makes her cry.

After Bernard’s disastrous meeting with her parents, Leigh-Cheri doesn’t expect support from her parents. Instead, she cries on Gulietta’s shoulder and then makes an appointment with Bernard’s lawyer.

Bernard’s lawyer, Nina Jablonski, has red hair and is seven months pregnant. Nina tells Leigh-Cheri that she can visit Bernard, but the authorities are convinced that Bernard is involved in a plot to return Max to the throne, and their conversation will almost certainly be bugged. Because of this, Bernard requests that Leigh-Cheri tell him a story, and she realizes that she only knows one.
