(Scarlett leans over a cott that holds a small, ginger boy, who still has a tiny moustache. Coran speaks to Hunk through his communications device on the other side of the room.)

Coran: Could you take Lo-the prisoner to the glass cell downstairs?

Hunk, through comms: Sure.

Coran: Thank you, Hunk.

Scarlett: Coochy-coo! (Coran jr giggles) How come he has a moustache already? He's not even an adult!

Coran: Oh. Male Altean's facial hair grows quite early on.

Scarlett: Oh. It normally hits human men at puberty.

Coran: What's puberty?

Scarlett, jumping up/going red: Are you saying that Altean's don't have puberty?!! I wish I was Altean!

Coran, laughing: Alright, now he's been fed, we can leave him to sleep.

Scarlett: Night night, baby Coran.

 (She heads to her room, and Coran turns to the lift to the ground floor.)

At the Glass Cell

Lotor: Coran, does Allura know I'm here?

Coran: Of course not.

Lotor: Does my daughter?

Coran: I don't know if you've noticed, but Shinka's in a coma.

Lotor: Shinka?! No...How?!

Shiro, entering the hall: Your Galra friends turned her against us.

Lotor: You think that's why I was on that ship?! I'm on the run from the Galra.

Coran: Why?

Lotor: Why?! ...Many reasons. Mostly for killing my father and having a child with the daughter of King Alfor-the Galra's sworn enemy. I was looking for Allura to warn her.

Shiro: You think that after all you've done to her...she would happily greet you with open arms? That any of us would?

Lotor: No. I wanted to tell her I'm sorry. Even she doesn't forgive me, I'd be relieved to know that she's safe...without me.

Shiro: Don't think that she'll trust-that we'll trust you ever again.

Lotor, turning away: I don't expect you to. I just wanted to express my forgiveness, see my daughter for one last time, then hand myself over to the Galra. I don't deserve to live any longer.

(Coran and Shiro look at each other solemnly.)

Coran: If you hand us over, use her again, or trick any of us, we'll kill you ourselves.

Lotor: Of course, Coran.

Allura, through Shiro's comm: Shiro! Do you know where Coran is?! Shinka's just woken up!

Coran, keeping his eye on Lotor: Is she alright?

Allura: Yes! She's better than ever. Tired, but better!

Coran: That's brilliant, Allura! I'll come up now!

Allura, through comms: Up? (Coran has a panicked expression) Where are you?

Coran: I-

Allura, through comms: Coran?

(Shiro presses the button for communication to turn off.)

Lotor: Send them my love.

Shiro: You can send it yourself when Allura and Shinka aren't so weak.

(They step back into the elevator, and it climbs up. Allura stands in front of them, crossing her arms, and raising an eyebrow.)

Coran: We were...

Shiro: -Coran jr ran off, and we went to get him.

Allura: Right...Then where is he?

Coran: Um...in his cott...?!

Allura, unfolding her arms: Is there something you're not telling me?

Coran: Princess, if I told you what was down there, you wouldn't believe me.

Allura: You're not holding the universe's biggest Weblum down there, are you?

Shiro, returning to Adam and Kibra: You could say that.

(Coran laughs nervously, and speeds into the chamber room. Screaming and shouting comes from inside. When Allura steps in, she holds her hands over her mouth in shock. Kibra is holding Shinka up by her neck, the metal, computed fingers tightening around her neck. Shinka is too weak to resist, so she almost wills herself to die.)

Shiro: KIBRA?! What's going on?! Drop her!

Kibra, straining: I-I can't...

Adam: Calm down. You can do it...Take deep breaths and think of something happy.

Kibra: Like what?!

(Shinka's body slowly turns a pale grey colour. Allura flusters about, but doesn't want to do anything in case she hurts Kibra.)

Shiro: Kibra...Think of Earth. The calm, blue, waves crashing against the shore. The sweet taste of pink cotton-candy.

(Kibra's hand loosens, and lilac comes back into Shinka's skin. Allura rushes over and cradles her, tearing up. Kibra stares at them, almost crying herself. Taking a glance at her robot arm, she runs down the hallway. Karma brushes past her, then chases after her.)

Karma: Kibra! ...Kibra!

(Adam and Shiro follow them down the hallway, leaving Allura, Matt and Coran around Shinka, who still isn't breathing.)

Allura: Shinka, please. Please wake up, I can't lose you too.

Matt: Should we put her back in the chamber?

(Shinka's lips part, and Matt leans close, but can't hear any signs of her being alive.)

Matt: Hang on, I've read about this before-It's called mouth to mouth.

(He kisses her on the lips, then breaks away. Shinka starts coughing and spluttering, and her eyes open again. Allura holds her closely.)

Allura: You saved her! Thank you, Matt.

Matt, grinning/blushing: It was my pleasure, Princess.

Shinka, to Matt: What did you do?

Matt: Used my skill and expertise. 

(Shinka rolls her eyes, and stands, but falls again, landing in Matt's arms. He props her back up and blushes.)

Matt: You-You, er, need some rest.

Coran: Good idea.

(Matt helps her back into the chamber and Allura smiles warmly at him.)

Matt: He-heh, well, I've got lots of stuff to do. Um, see you later, Princess and...Princess. (Pause, he nods.) Coran.

(He shuffles away anxiously.)

Allura, looking up at Shinka: I hope she'll be alright.

Coran, smiling reassuringly: She'll be fine once she's had some rest. And so will you, come on, Princess.

(He leads her away.)

Kibra's Door

Karma: Kibra, what happened? Please let me in.

(Kibra doesn't say anything, so Karma slowly opens the door. Kibra's face glistens from tears, and her robot arm is on the other side of her bed, dislocated from her body. Karma cautiously sits beside her.)

Karma: What happened?

Kibra: Shinka's dead because of me. I couldn't control my stupid arm!

Karma: Kibra...Shinka's not dead.

Kibra: I strangled her.

(Shiro opens the door wider, and steps in. Kibra jumps up and hugs him, crying again.)

Shiro: Oh, Kibra, it's alright...She didn't die. It took some getting used to my arm as well.

Kibra: But I nearly killed her! I would have murdered my friend.

Adam: Get some sleep my love, maybe it will help.

Kibra: Can you stay?

Karma: ...Me?

(Kibra nods.)

Karma: Um...yeah. I'll just go and get my stuff.

Adam: Thank you, Karma.

Karma: No big deal.

(She shrugs and heads to her room.)

Shiro: She is so much like her father.
