It smells so good.
Yeah, it's irresistible!
You're not likely to find something this delicious
anywhere else in the world.
It's Regalo's treasure.
Sorry about the wait, everyone.
Limone pie!
So delicious that it holds its own against those sold in shops.
Milady helped out today, as well.
Please make sure you enjoy every bite.
Thank you for the meal!
It's so good!
Hey, Luca, what's with the small serving?
He has a point.
Yeah! I wanna eat more!
Oh, goodness!
That's why I asked you to fully enjoy every bite!
My apologies, Milady,
but could you help me for a moment?
Oh, sure.
The incident from the other day is still bothering you?
Fel has nothing to do with your past
and your issue with Dante.
Yeah, but...
Things are just awkward.
It's because you can't face yourself
that this happened.
Then what about you?
What do you mean?
Are you able to face yourself?
I have no reason to tell you.
You can't see where you're going with that, can you?
Nova.
What's in the boxes?
Limone pies.
Mama and everyone else said they'd like some, too,
so I thought I'd bring them some.
Where's Luca?
Well...
Luca, I want my limone pie!
More, more!
Okay, okay, okay, okay!
I thought I could at least
deliver them since he was busy.
Nova?
If you were to fall, you'd ruin the pies.
Thank you.
Sitting here eating limone pie like this
reminds me of when you both were little.
Um, Mama...
Could you not bring up the past...
Oh, there's no need to be embarrassed.
I remember, too.
I remember the first day you came to our house, Nova.
What's the matter, Nova?
Come over here.
Yes, sir.
We're going to be a family now,
so there's no need to hold back.
A family?
Sorry to keep you waiting.
Here is the limone pie that Milady made.
You made it for the first time with Luca for Nova, right?
Yes!
He gets to eat Felicitá's cooking before me?
Oh, don't be so sad.
Nova is her future husband, after all.
Here!
It's delicious!
I'm so glad!
Now, you have a seat, too, Felicitá.
Let's all eat together.
Oh my.
That was the first time
I felt the warm feeling of being in a family.
Giapponese flowers are so pretty.
I sometimes ask Mama to share some of hers like this.
Really?
Mama also mentioned that
there are flowers called "sakura" in Giappone as well.
Sakura?
Yes.
Apparently, when they're in full bloom,
the areas they grow in all turn pink.
I'd like to see that one day.
You really like Giappone, don't you?
Th-That's because...
I have interest in other countries...
Hey,
do you have fertilizer for your flowers?
No.
Then I'll show you a place after work.
What?
Come with us on the patrol tomorrow.
You're in the upper echelon,
so it'd be helpful to see the other departments.
Thank you. I would be honored.
Today,
our patrol will concentrate on the shopping district.
Don't disregard even the smallest feelings of uneasiness,
and pay attention to the conversations and actions of the people.
Got it?
Yes, sir!
Wow.
How's your little pupil been doing?
It's unusual for you to care about others.
Usually, I would have no interest.
However, since this involves Libertá, as well as Milady,
I'm quite interested.
An interesting experiment might be possible.
Yay! I won again!
Because of your fool luck, I'm losing business.
And now I can eat lots of lasagna!
I'll treat you to some, too, Debito.
Yeah, sure, thanks.
I told you, I can't find it anywhere!
My wallet is missing!
I'm sure someone stole it!
What?
Oh, nothing...
I just thought, you're really amazing.
You do a great job as the head of Holy Grail,
and bringing your men together.
And you don't expect anything less from yourself either.
Of course.
I've been entrusted with the task. It's my responsibility.
I need to work harder, too.
Not to mention, my Arcana powers haven't stabilized yet.
You were asking
why we have Arcana powers, weren't you?
Yeah.
At times, I don't know myself.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Nova, that guy.
That went well.
Hey.
This isn't yours.
I cannot ignore those who threaten the peace of our island.
Depending on the situation,
I'm not afraid to use force.
Sounds fun. Try it, little boy.
What's with that flimsy sword?
Oh, it's one of those Giapponese katanas.
I hear that there's some woman
from Giappone in the Arcana Famiglia.
If they're letting a woman lead, the family's doomed.
Is that all you have to say before you die?
Can't be... you're Samurai Nova?
I will not forgive those who insult Papa and Mama.
Same here.
We agree for once.
Damn it!
Here's your wallet.
Thank you very much.
I thought I'd never see it again.
You're a life saver, thank you.
It appears I'm now indebted to the Holy Grail.
I crossed the line, my apologies.
No, you were rather helpful.
Not to mention I like your strong sense of honor.
I see.
However, make sure you praise Bambina for what she did today.
He's right. It was all thanks to her powers.
A woman blooms when she's given praise.
Fertilizer for the flowers.
We were busy dealing with the thieves,
so I had one of my subordinates go buy it.
Thank you, Nova.
Hey, what was that earlier?
Earlier?
You know,
the thing you did to make the thieves unconscious.
Oh, you mean striking them with the back of my sword.
It's a Giapponese move that Mama instructed.
Using it, no blood will be shed and Regalo will remain clean.
That's amazing.
Of course it is.
You and Mama get along really well.
Mama is really nice to all the members of the family,
but I think she expects great things from you.
You don't understand anything.
You have no idea how much everyone expects from you.
I believe the reason Papa brought up the Arcana Duello
is to make you, the family's heir, stronger.
Work hard so you can meet those expectations.
Listen well, Nova.
You must make a good impression at the meeting today.
You are the young lady's cousin and betrothed.
Eventually, our family will replace Mondo and take control of Regalo.
It'll be all right, Nova.
They'll like you.
You have the qualifications and the strength.
Yes, Mother, Father.
Why am I having these dreams now?
Who is it?
Pardon, may we have a word?
Are you all right, Milady?
Were the Holy Grail's duties difficult?
No, that's not it.
It's hard to become friends with people.
Supposedly, the money is being used for "research fees,"
but the amount seems rather high.
The possibility of improper use of funds, huh.
Thank you for the report.
I will figure something out.
You may leave.
Now then, how am I going to look into this?
Now who is it?
May I have a word?
You are too hard on Milady.
Even yesterday, Milady wanted to become closer to you,
and you only pushed her away.
I cannot forgive this.
Did she say something?
She didn't have to.
How long do you think I've been her attendant?
I acknowledge that she's trying hard.
Then you should just tell her that.
But it'd be unacceptable for her
to be content with her present state.
She still has more work to do!
I understand your difficult position.
For example, your engagement to Milady being voided,
and your parents...
But I don't think that justifies you being cold to Milady.
I'm not trying to be cold.
As much as I am against this notion,
I'd like you to become friendlier with Milady.
What do you mean?
Milady, please come in.
I had Luca show me how to cook something.
Since you've helped me out so much.
Here you go.
It's good.
Really?
Yeah. What kind of soup is this?
It's chickpea soup, Nova.
What?!
What?
Why in the world would you pick this soup?
Luca said it was delicious and very nutritious.
Make sure you eat all of Milady's cooking.
Disregarding the ingredients, it was good.
I thank you.
I'm glad.
I have a favor to ask of you.
Even if you're discovered,
you'll still be able to gather information
without bringing too much suspicion on yourself.
I'd like you to check for anything suspicious
and things that don't belong in a lab.
I don't want to doubt another family member.
So I would like you to dispel that doubt.
Why?
May I ask what you're doing?
I change the lock every now and then, you see.
After you.
I'm assuming the security director sent you.
Probably to expose the improper use of funds
by the research lab?
You're so easy to read.
This is all of it.
If you still have your doubts, come back as often as you like.
I won't run or hide.
I'll take these documents.
She can look at as many documents as she likes...
but I can't have you found just yet.
So, he already knew of my plan.
That would be my fault. I apologize.
Since he provided these documents,
it's hard to say how trustworthy they are.
Um, this...
Why does Jolly have this?
Is that...
They're my parents' clinical charts.
I see, your parents...
But why does Jolly have them?
I don't know.
I'd like to know myself.
Maybe Jolly is researching a cure for their illness.
Illness is just a cover.
The truth is different.
They've been asleep
for these seven years.
They're asleep because I put them to sleep,
with my Arcana powers.
With the power of Death.
I'm sure that you who grew up with the love
of Mama and Papa couldn't understand.
My parents used me.
They wanted to use my Arcana powers
to take over the family.
They only thought of me as a tool for moving up.
Not only that, they wanted to kill Mama and Papa.
I wanted to protect them,
and I couldn't forgive my parents...
By the time I realized what was going on,
I had lost control of my powers.
But this is what I wished for.
I don't have any doubts
that I did the right thing.
Why are you crying?
Because...
you won't.
You grew up being loved.
I grew up as a tool to help them move up.
I can't bury this gap.
I thank you for worrying about me.
But leave me alone.
I am still weak.
I knew I'd have to tell her one day,
but I ended up taking out my feelings on her.
Nova,
do you remember what you gave Mondo and me
when you voided your engagement to Felicitá?
You can come for it whenever you'd like.
I believe that Felicitá will be there for you.
She won't be able to understand how I feel.
And I... don't want her to.
I thank you for worrying about me.
But leave me alone.
Ciao!
But I want to do something for them.
For both of them.
Now, choose the one that should be punished
by naming their card.
La Forza.
La Temperanza.
Three against one, tonight's sinner is you, Luca!
Wait, what? Why?!
I made limone pie for all of you!
That pie is the very reason!
Yeah, our opinion is...
The limone pie is too small!
I'd like some more limone pie.
What's this? It's all gone bye-pie.
Just kidding!
That wasn't funny at all!
Not in the least!
It's not enough at all!
Yet you ate more than anyone.
Meaning, Luca, you are to make twenty more pies.
Understood?
What?!
Why am I being punished for making something delicious?!
I'm not okay with this!
Next week is what?!
Milady is going to be doing that with those two?!
What?! That, too?!
I cannot allow this.
As Milady's attendant, I will stop next week's episode at any cost!
