Becky Blackbell/Synopsis

History
Becky was born as the daughter of the CEO of Blackbell Heavy Industries, a major military manufacturer. She is often doted on and spoiled by her father, being given expensive rewards for succeeding at tests, some of these being a giant cake, a small house, a diamond-studded doll, a pink tank, a pink warplane, a tiara with real gems and a dog. Her dog appears to be a Yorkshire Terrier named 'Wiesel,' which she affectionately nicknames 'Weezy.'

Eden Beginnings Arc
At orientation, Becky comes to the stage after her name is called and meets Anya Forger. She introduces herself to the girl while thinking of her as immature. Unaware that Anya could read her thoughts, Becky is surprised when Anya ignores her. When Damian Desmond and his friends pick on Anya, Anya says she does not care and shows off a smug smile, which makes Becky see her as mature. During the school tour, Damian throws a paper ball at Anya. Becky threatens to tell on the boys, and Damian shoves her away while stepping on her foot. Damian further bullies Anya, who suddenly punches him while Becky and his friends look on in shock. When Henry Henderson comes over to check on them, Becky explains the boys' bullying of Anya. Anya explains that she got mad at Damian for stepping on Becky's foot, making Becky believe that Anya did it for her and she thanks her.

The next day, Becky arrives at school and upon seeing that Anya took the school bus, offers to have her chauffeur pick Anya up next time. On the way to class, they see Damian and his followers and Anya attempts to apologize, but Becky drags her away telling her to not talk to them. In the classroom, everyone avoids the two as they are afraid of Anya, however, Becky tells Anya they should be best friends as only she knows how great Anya is. When the class ends, Becky wakes up a dozing Anya, who wants to apologize to Damian and mumbles about world peace. Becky thinks she means peace in the schoolyard and tells Anya that she will protect her. As Becky keeps stopping Anya from apologizing, Loid Forger uses the audio system to call Becky to the assembly hall, giving Anya a chance to go and apologize to Damian. Becky heads to the assembly hall, but is unable to find the person who called her there.

Secret Police Arc
In math class, the teacher calls on Anya to answer the question written on the blackboard. She proudly stands and proclaims that it's three-thirds, to the amazement of Becky. However, the teacher tells her that she's completely wrong and the classroom falls silent.

Stella Star Arc
Before the start of class, Anya and Becky are arguing with Damian, Emile Elman, and Ewen Egeburg, while Henry gives a look of disappointment having to deal with this so early in the day. Later, Becky tells Anya about a rumor of a chance to earn a Stella Star in P.E. class. On the day of the game, Anya, Becky, and Damian's gang have a bit of an argument before they line up on the court. Henderson announces that he will oversee the interclass dodgeball match between Cecile Hall and Wald Hall as Coach Bobby is out sick.

At the start of the game, Damian tries to eliminate Bill Watkins, who starts taking out several students on the Cecile Hall team. Becky worries that she might die if she gets hit by Bill, who assures her that he goes easy on the girls. Becky gets annoyed and attempts to take out Bill, but he catches the ball and eliminates her with ease. Damian and Anya soon become the only students left on their team, Anya inching closer to out of bounds. Becky notices this and yells at Anya to watch out for the people out of bounds. Anya tries to step back but trips and falls. Bill takes the opportunity to take out Anya, but Damian takes the hit for her, shocking everyone. Anya decides to 'avenge' Damian's death and throws the ball at Bill, but the ball hits the ground and bounces toward Bill, who throws it right back and hits her. After the game, Becky consoles Anya and starts arguing with Damian and his friends when they yell at her friend.

When Anya earns a Stella Star after saving a boy from drowning, Becky congratulates her for getting the first Stella Star in their grade. The next day at school, Becky greets Anya, who asks to be called "Starlight Anya" from now on. While averse to the nickname, Becky states that with this fame, Anya could probably make 100 friends just today. Becky and Anya head to their class where their classmates begin to badmouth Anya for wearing her Stella Star in class and try to assert that the whole incident was faked and Anya didn't deserve the Stella Star. In response, Becky and, to everyone's surprise, Damian defend Anya's achievement.

Becky and Anya head to lunch, where Becky asks Anya what she got as a reward for earning a Stella Star. Anya thinks maybe she could get peanuts, but Becky pushes her to think bigger, like the gifts she's gotten of dresses, tiaras, and a tank. Seeing all the things Becky has gotten makes Anya frightened at the amount of money the Blackbell family has. Anya decides she wants a castle, but Becky tries to get her to lower her request size. Becky brings up her pet dog, which makes Anya curious.

Doggy Crisis Arc
After the weekend, Anya returns to class and greets Becky. She then tells Becky that she got a dog, and Becky proceeds to ask some questions about the dog before inviting Anya to a dog playdate. Later at lunch, Anya asks Becky how to name a dog. Becky tells her to just name her dog after something like a flower or food. Anya immediately comes to the name "Peanut," but Becky shoots down the idea because it doesn't fit how her dog looks. Anya imagines her dog and then comes to the name "Furry," and Becky shoots it down again and tells her to let her parents handle the name.

Midterm Exams Arc
Becky greets Anya as they head to school for the morning. Becky asks if Anya saw the episode of Berlint in Love that aired last night, but Anya replies that she only watches cartoons. Becky begins talking about how childish Anya is for not even knowing what love is, saying that "love can make you soar through the sky." Anya then drops her family photo on the ground and attempts to bring it to the attention of Damian, who ignores her. Becky picks up the photo and sees Anya's father, Loid Forger, whom she finds very dreamy and decides to keep it for herself.

The students go to their arts-and-crafts class, supervised by Henry, as the art teacher is sick. The assignment is to make a three-dimensional model with the provided materials while in a group, the theme being "animals." Becky says goodbye to Anya as they are at different tables, but Anya just worriedly asks for her photo back, which Becky refuses.

Henry looks over the students' work and cooperation and takes notice of Becky's creation. Becky tells him that she made Anya's dad, which shocks Henry, and he tells her to start over because the theme is "animals." Becky stands firm with her work and tells Henry that humans are animals which he realizes is true. He tells Becky that she can continue, but she instead decides to start over as Loid is more evolved than simple animals, crushing the model. Eventually, Becky finishes her new model, a crocodile, which she displays in the hall with the other students' models.

Henry announces to the students that their midterm exams will be in two weeks. He says the top two students in each subject will receive a Stella Star, while students who fail an exam will receive a Tonitrus Bolt for each failed one. While Henry proceeds to return their history quizzes from the day prior, Becky talks to Anya about their upcoming tests, and Anya confidently says she has been studying hard lately. Two weeks later, the students at Eden Academy are sat down in the exam hall and prepare to take their exams. Becky asks Anya if she is ready, and Anya gives Becky a statement of confidence, saying she will blow her away with her "swole Chihuahua" before Henry announces that the midterm exams will now begin.

Five days after the midterms, the scores are posted in the Quad. Becky finds herself at 46th place and then looks for where Anya placed, finding her friend placed at 213th out of 228 students. Despite barely passing, Anya is very proud of this, and Becky is happy for her, saying she loves how Anya always looks on the bright side.

The Cecile Hall students clean up the courtyard, and Becky comments to Anya how calm things are now that midterms are over. Anya says that Loid is probably more relaxed since she avoided getting a Tonitrus Bolt which makes Becky ask whether he's strict or gets angry. Anya tells her he's a monster and Becky sympathizes with having parents with high expectations but also finds the idea of a monster Loid attractive.

Their conversation is interrupted by Damian, who does a move he calls "Desmond Style Rolling Sweep," which flings a bunch of dirt into Anya and Becky's faces and causes them to cough. Emile and Ewen both compliment Damian on his cleaning skills. A bunch of other students also surround him, shower him with compliments and ask about having a study group with him before the next exam. Becky annoyedly looks at Damian and complains about how obnoxious he is, but Anya instead says that she wants to go to Damian's study group as well. Becky pauses for a moment, then says she forgot Anya had a thing for Damian, which makes Anya wonder what this "thing" is.

Anya notices a gloomy-looking boy and asks Becky who he is. Becky tells her that is their classmate, George Glooman. Becky asks Anya if she likes Damian, but Anya ignores the question and tells Becky she wants to know more about George. Becky is shocked, believing that Anya will fall for any guy, and tells her that she should stay away from George because of how gloomy he is. After Becky sees Anya defending Damian when George tries to frame him and get him expelled, she squeals, believing this was some romantic moment between the two. Becky tells Anya that Damian probably knows exactly how she feels now, embarrassing Damian, but Anya is still confused.

After questioning him, George claims that his family company has gone bankrupt after being bought out by the Desmond Group. George believed that if Damian had gotten expelled, his family would be too distracted to mess with Glooman Pharmaceuticals. Damian yells at him, telling him there is no way his father's company drove Glooman's out of business, and Becky agrees, saying that George went too far. Pitying George’s situation, the students of Cecile Hall indulge in his final wishes before he leaves Eden. Happy at being treated so nicely, George bursts into tears and asks for one last request: to sing the school chorus with everyone. Becky is the first to start singing, and eventually, everyone from Cecile Hall except Anya sings the chorus together. Afterward, the students give George one of their belongings as parting gifts to remember them. They wish George a grand farewell and tell him that he will always be a part of Cecile Hall.

The next day, an embarrassed George returns to school, and an annoyed Becky reminds him to return what was given to him.

Campbelldon Tennis Arc
Henry Henderson instructs the children to investigate an occupation that interests them for their upcoming social studies project. He suggests various methods, such as interviewing their parents about their jobs, making inquiries at a local business, getting their parents to arrange an interview with a prominent figure in their field, or even asking himself about educators. He adds that they will each prepare a report about their chosen profession and present it to the class on Friday. Becky decides to pick her father's company and asks Anya about her choice. On Friday, Anya talks about Loid's work as a psychiatrist. Anya mentions his dedication to his work and reason for becoming a psychiatrist, which Becky finds noble.

After Yor Forger accepts Fiona Frost’s challenge to a tennis match, Anya sees the tension between the women and recalls Becky telling her about a love rivalry in the latest episode of Berlint in Love, where the main character's fiancé runs into his childhood girlfriend. Relating this to the current situation, Anya says she now understands what Becky what talking about, saying that she likes action battles too.

Imperial Scholars Mixer Arc
Anya follows around Damian and his friends in the halls. Watching from a corner, Anya expresses her frustration, and Becky appears and agrees, albeit for a different reason. Becky says she knows how Anya feels as love is hard to communicate. Anya realizes she is talking about liking Damian, which she bluntly denies, and Becky assumes she is being bashful. Becky decides to help make Damian fall for Anya. She says boys are easily fooled by outward appearances, so if Anya dresses up all cute, Damian is sure to fall for her. Thus, Becky and Anya go on a shopping trip on the weekend.

The girls are driven by Martha, Becky's butler, to the shopping center, where Anya is excited to be riding around in their fancy car. Becky complains about not seeing Loid when she picked up Anya and how tough of a rival Yor will be after seeing how pretty she is. Becky also compliments Anya’s bag (by working-class standards) and asks what is inside. Anya produces a large wad of cash, which Becky does not see as enough. Anya wonders how many peanuts she can buy with the money, but Becky reminds her that they are shopping for clothes.

At the shopping center, the staff treats Becky like royalty, and Anya is surprised by all this. She asks how much money Becky brought, and she replies that she has never brought money anywhere in her life. Becky tells Anya that the store usually brings stuff to her house, but she was so excited to go shopping with Anya that she reserved the whole store. With that, Becky helps Anya find a look that even Damian cannot resist.

Anya tries on various stylish outfits while Becky shares her thoughts. Afterward, Anya gets exhausted and remarks that fashion is hard. After Anya points out that Damian will not be able to see her new clothes since she wears her uniform at school every day, Becky says all the Halls throw parties at the end of the term, and students will be allowed to wear street clothes with the teacher’s permission. Becky realizes that if the parties are open to parents, Loid will most likely be there. She shouts that she needs something too and tries on different outfits, wondering what Loid would like. Becky concludes that she does not even know anymore and decides to buy them all, much to Anya’s shock while Martha simply sighs.

Becky asks what Anya has decided on, but she says she cannot look at clothes anymore, so Becky says they can check out the shoes. The girls check out all the accessories at the store while the boxes Martha carries continue to stack up. They stop at a café to rest and have sweets. Becky remarks that Anya did not get anything, and Anya says she does not even know what she wants, reiterating that fashion is hard. Becky looks quietly, then shyly asks if Anya had fun shopping. Anya smiles brightly and tells Becky that she had so much fun, as this is the first time she has gone shopping with a friend. Touched to be called a friend, Becky decides to find something Anya wants while Martha watches from the side with a smile.

The girls head to a stuffed animal shop, but a sheep keychain catches Anya’s attention. Anya asks what the sheep is, and Becky explains it is a department store’s mascot. Seeing how cute it is, Anya decides to buy one, while Becky remarks on how childish Anya is. Anya says it will be a memento of their shopping trip and proof that they survived. Becky seems hesitant about the idea, but before she can voice her opinion, Anya buys one for herself and for Becky. Martha urges her to accept the gesture of friendship, saying her father would say the same, so an embarrassed Becky then takes the keychain. She asks Anya why they went shopping in the first place, and Anya says she forgot. They brush it off and decide to head home, where they fall asleep on the drive back. When they return to school, Becky and Anya greet each other and talk about their matching keychains with big smiles on their faces.

On the day of the Imperial Scholars Mixer, classes are dismissed early, and Becky is happy to get a half day, and she invites Anya out for some shopping. However, Anya ignores her and instead goes after Damian and his friends, with Becky following close behind. When Damian calls Anya names while telling her to stay away from him, Anya suggests punching him again, but Becky tells her that she will get expelled if she does. Anya suddenly runs off again, to Becky's dismay, as she simply wants to go home.

The two catch up to Damian's group, where Anya tries to stop Damian from calling off his meeting with his father. Anya tells Damian that she is aware of his poor mark on their recent reading test, saying that she looked over his shoulder, which makes Becky think that she is a stalker. Anya says Damian is scared his father will find out about his poor grade and tries empathizing with him, admitting to getting 17 points. Anya says she does not know if Loid likes her, so she is also scared and adds that he gets mad at her often. Despite that, Anya believes in her father because she loves him, so she will use all her courage to tell him that she failed. Everyone stares at Anya in confusion, who quickly wonders aloud what she was just talking about.

Damian is convinced and waits for the mixer to end. Becky is surprised that Anya is doing the same, as she just wants to go home. She assumes Anya is eager to meet Damian’s parents because she wants their blessing to marry, misinterpreting her seriousness. Becky decides to wait with Anya, hoping to see the 'big moment' with her own eyes. Anya falls asleep shortly after, and Becky realizes her mistake. She asks a nearby Martha to take Anya back to their car as they prepare to leave. On their way out, they pass by Loid, who disguises himself as a teacher. Martha and Becky then drop off an asleep Anya to the Forger household, to Yor's surprise.

At the school cafeteria, Anya and Becky play-pretend with their matching sheep dolls. Becky tries to play a romantic story with a prince, then a battle story with twins separated at birth, but Anya does not understand and refuses to play along. Becky tells Anya news about how the students will be divided into new classes by performance at the end of the term. After hearing Becky's explanation, Anya is horrified that she might be all alone, so Becky encourages her to work harder. Becky adds that the grouping is rumored to be based on not just midterms and finals, but tomorrow's quizzes too.

The girls overhear two older students gossiping about the Pastries of Knowledge, made by a formal royal chef and can guarantee a spot as an Imperial Scholar. Hearing this, the girls rush to the dining hall where the pastries are. Anya thinks she could be a genius if she eats one, while Becky is excited to try macarons from a former royal chef. They soon see a queue of students for the pastries, but Damian and his friends run up next to them with the same goal. The server announces that there is only one order left of the special Pierre Pommier Macaron set. The two groups try to be first to get the last set but are stunned when George has already ordered the macarons.

Damian and Becky rush up to George and demand he gives the macarons to them. When George says they are his as he bought them with his allowance, the kids remind him what he owes them. George concedes to give up four macarons out of the set of five macarons. They realize they have five people and decide to have a round of Old Maid to determine who gets the macarons.

Anya is unaware of the rules as she has never played cards before, so Becky quickly explains the rules. To everyone's surprise, Anya flawlessly wins the game. Damian and his friends are in disbelief and accuse her of cheating, which Becky refutes. Anya then suggests they play another round, to Becky's dismay, and she tells her not to give in to them. On Anya's turn, she takes the joker from Ewen's deck. Damian and his friends laugh at Anya, tempting her to hit them, but Becky calms her down. Eventually, everyone else gets rid of the cards, leaving only Anya and Damian. While Becky cheers her friend on, Anya panics at the thought of not getting a macaron, thus failing her tests and being in a different class from Becky. As Damian is about to take a card, Anya begins to cry.

After the game, George gives everyone their share of the macaron, except Damian, who took the joker from Anya's cards. The kids eat their macarons. Anya becomes fired up after eating the pastry and studies excitedly until the quizzes the next day. When their results come back, Henry Henderson shows that Anya's quiz results are just as bad as before, and the other students stare at Anya in disbelief. Becky tries to cheer up the depressed Anya, saying she will make it up on her finals.

Great Cruise Adventure Arc
As a new day begins at Eden Academy, students chatter about what they did during their midterm break. Becky greets Anya and notices her tan, and asks her friend where she went during her break. Anya tells Becky about going to the "Grandest Luxury Liner in all of Ostania." Becky brushes it off as nothing special, surprising Anya. Anya says her trip was special and struggles to say the ship's name. Becky recognizes it as Princess Lorelei and says she went on it before the start of school, mentioning how she stayed in the Imperial Suite. Anya is shocked and says she stayed in a third-class prison cell. Emile laughs at her while Ewen remarks how Anya is not embarrassed to admit to staying in a lower-class suite. Anya hears their insults and reddens up in embarrassment and irritation.

The boys brag about their fancy escapades during their break, and Becky talks about how she had her father let her meet the famous starlet Rachel at a party. The other students gather around Becky, praising her and her family, and ask about her meeting with Rachel. Wanting a share of the attention, Anya starts lying about the details of her trip, mentioning secret villains called the "Octopeople." However, the students ignore her to ask Becky about Rachel. When the teacher arrives and asks how the students spent their break, Anya gets made fun of.

At the end of the day, Becky comforts a gloomy Anya, saying she can understand the desire to make oneself look better. She says there is nothing wrong with it if it helps Anya to become the person she wants to be. While Anya is happy to hear this, George interjects, warning her not to lie too much lest she becomes an outcast like him.

WISE Arc
At home, Becky watches a scene of Berlint in Love on television, where the male lead Vincent is seduced by his lover Sonia. Reminded by her now framed photo of the Forgers, Becky calls up Anya's home and pretends that she happens to be dropping by their house while in the neighborhood. Soon after, Becky is at their door, startling Anya with her quick arrival. Becky's thoughts reveal her intent to confess her love to Loid, though Martha disapproves.

Anya calls over Loid, announcing Becky's visit. Loid greets Becky, while Martha apologizes for their unannounced visit with a gift. He welcomes Becky to their home with a bright smile and thanks her for being a good friend to Anya, causing Becky to fall backwards with a lovestruck expression. Martha leaves Becky at the Forgers' home and reminds her to behave. Anya takes Becky on a quick tour of the house, but the gap between their financial status is evident when Becky assumes their living room is a storage vestibule and is amazed at Anya's room being smaller than her dog's doghouse, leading Anya to put a stop to their tour. After finding out that Yor is out walking Bond Forger, Becky begins to fantasize her and Loid in a similar situation as the Berlint in Love scene earlier, with her marrying Loid.

Becky begins to imagine herself as the new Forger mother and thinks that even Anya would be delighted by that, imagining their life together filled with wealth and fun. Anya then asks Loid to play with them, and Becky thanks her for the assist. Loid chats with Becky, trying to gain more intel on the activities of Becky's father, while Becky is flustered as she wonders if Loid is interested in her.

Shortly after, Yor arrives home with Bond and greets Becky, whom she calls the last boss. Anya tries to introduce Bond to Becky, who is too preoccupied with planning how to defeat Yor to notice. Becky tries to use techniques she learned from her television dramas, letting her hair down and flipping it, but to no avail. Later, Yor seats Becky beside Loid, serving them black tea. Becky starts blushing sitting next to Loid and wonders if this is a scheme from Yor but sees this as her chance to win Loid over. She asks Loid why he was interested in her family, and he says he was just making conversation. This shocks Becky, who says he has been playing her the entire time, making him spit out his drink. However, Yor sees nothing of this, upsetting Becky. Becky does her final trick, leaning on Loid's arm and pretending to be tipsy after drinking the tea.

Yor is distraught, thinking she somehow poured alcohol into Becky's tea, and quickly carries her to a hospital, despite Loid's protests. In her rush, she sees an oncoming car and tosses Becky in the air, before taking a hit from the car and doing a roll to catch Becky, to the girl's shock. Yor continues to the hospital, but Becky stops her and reveals that she lied about being drunk to get Loid to go out with her. Yor is not upset and is relieved for Becky’s well-being. Yor apologizes for jumping to conclusions and dragging Becky to a nearby park, wondering aloud how Loid can put up with her. Becky then asks Yor why Loid chose to marry her, and so Yor recalls her hazy memory of the night Loid said she was strong, which Becky takes at face value. Shortly after, Loid and Anya catch up with them with Becky's belongings. Seeing a strongman game, Becky tries proving her strength to Loid by winning but falls under the hammer's weight. Yor assumes Becky wants to win the grand prize for Loid and single-handedly wrecks the game with her strength, rendering everyone speechless. Wanting to be strong like Yor, Becky asks to be trained, and when they return home, Yor teaches her how to punch. Martha, who arrives to pick up Becky, is confused at the sight.

In Cecile Hall's classroom, Henry Henderson berates the students for the recent increase in tardiness and late homework assignments. As Anya and Becky chat while leaving the classroom, they get interrupted by Damian, who mocks Anya's tardiness and bets that she will be the first to be expelled for getting eight bolts. Becky gets irritated by this and suggests hitting Damian with "Master Yor's knockout punch," something Anya was also planning to do. Becky starts bickering with Emile and Ewen, who declare they will run through the school in their underpants if Damian ever gets a Tonitrus Bolt.

Before Damian can rebuke them, Bill Watkins runs towards them, warning them to run away before it is too late. Bill warns the students of Donna Schlag of the Disciplinary Committee. He explains her prior absence and a fearsome reputation for handing out Tonitrus Bolts for any infraction, rumored to have single-handedly expelled over a hundred students. He urges them to run away as his classroom has already fallen victim to 'Old Lady Tonitrus' and faints. Before the students can escape, Donna is already there and introduces herself, instructing everyone to line up and prepare for a bag inspection. Donna checks the bags, giving out Tonitrus Bolts for snacks and playing cards she finds. Damian is relaxed since he and his friends did not bring anything prohibited. To everyone's surprise, Donna punishes a student with a Tonitrus for not having a handkerchief.

Donna explains herself by recounting the tale of an Eden honor student who, after leaving the bathroom, wiped his wet hands on his pants as he forgot to bring his handkerchief, earning him the nickname of "Mr. Pee Pants" and eventually getting himself expelled for being a troublemaker. The students quickly check for their handkerchiefs, but Anya, after giving her only handkerchief to Damian, ends up receiving a Tonitrus. After the bag inspection, Becky is relieved to have survived the encounter, while Anya misunderstands that she will get cake after helping out Damian.

Friendship Schemes Arc
At the end of the school day, Becky gets picked up by Martha and says goodbye to Anya, who goes to wait at the school bus station.

Heading to school in the morning, Becky greets Anya, who asks for a way to get closer to Damian. Becky gets excited, believing that Anya wants to further her romantic advances with Damian. She tells Anya about a technique in which a girl holds bread in her mouth and bumps into a boy while turning a corner, and will link their fates forever. Becky buys a yakisoba burger and stuffs it into Anya's mouth. As Damian and his friends approach near the corner, Anya moves in for a 'Friendship Crash,' shocking Becky. Damian dodges the attack, knowing she might do something like this. While Anya kneels on the floor with the food in her mouth, Damian and his friends make fun of her appearance. Anya shouts at them but accidentally spits the burger onto Damian's head, both buns placed in a similar manner to Anya's hair buns. Emile and Ewen tease him, and Anya apologizes for wasting the food. Aggravated, Damian yells at her, shocking Anya. His friends warn him not to hit her, while Becky tells Anya they need to run.

The next day, Anya confronts Damian, demanding the cake she believes she was promised. Damian says he never promised her anything, then yells at her for demanding anything after she spilled the food on him. Suddenly, Anya decides to change her mind and says she wants to go to his house with her family. While Damian gets flustered, Becky tells Anya she is being too aggressive, and Ewen says the idea of her family interacting with the Desmonds is laughable. In response, Anya says that Yor has become friends with Melinda Desmond, Damian's mother.

The others are shocked to hear this, and Becky assumes that Anya already got the Desmond family's blessing to be with him. After Anya tells Damian that Melinda did not say much about him, and he quickly becomes stoic. Damian turns around in a huff and says Anya's family is no different from the rest, a bunch of flies buzzing around the Desmond name. Anya gets irritated and says she and her family are serious, referring to the mission, but Damian and Becky interpret as a romantic statement, and Becky says that Anya has become very passionate as of late.

Red Circus Arc
All the first-grade students are seen on school buses heading to the museum. Becky notices Anya’s excitement thinking they are going on an outing, so she corrects her saying they are going to the museum for a cultural experience. Becky checks for some food in her bag and asks Anya if she brought snacks, only for Anya to take out two bags of peanuts, and Becky says she should have a more balanced meal. Suddenly the bus takes another direction, and some strangers board inside. After immobilizing the dorm tutor chaperoning the students, the strangers introduce themselves as the Red Circus and declare the bus hijacked, scaring Becky and the other children.

Billy, the leader of the terrorists, walks through the bus with the shotgun in his hand, scaring the children. Becky notices Anya looking unwell so she worries and tells her to be strong. After Bill tells the others to calm down and that help is on the way, Anya feels better, to Becky’s relief. Billy begins to tell them that he knows how important their parents are, while he begins to call the Eden students by their surnames and for the work of their parents, including Becky. He tells them how they were born with all the luck in the world, threatening them to dare to pray to their parents to use the power they occupy to rescue them. Becky worriedly thinks that her father would never let anyone harm her. Moments later, Anya tells Becky that the terrorists are going to a place called Papier Palace Park. Surprised, Becky asks how she found out, and Anya says she read their lips. The two then plan to send a message to the people outside.

Anya writes a letter, but since her handwriting is messy, Becky writes it and adds her I.D. along with the Blackbell’s S.O.S. code. After finishing it, Becky places it in her candy tin container. Damian notices the girls' odd behavior, so he throws them a note asking what they are planning, warning them not to do anything reckless lest they get themselves killed. Anya throws a response telling him their plan, which Damian cannot read, so Becky writes it again and throws it at him. Damian decides to help by creating a distraction. While taken aback by how terrible his distraction is, Becky uses this to open the window and let Anya throw out the container, which attracts the attention of some passersby. However, Billy sees this, so he grabs a strange collar and attaches it on Anya. Billy then reveals that it is a bomb, and if anyone else tries to act against them, he will blow it up along with Anya, shocking Becky and rets of the students.

Becky starts to cry as she worries for Anya’s safety, but suddenly Anya calms down and casually plops back to her seat, then says she is hungry. Becky and Damian are shocked by Anya's lack of distress, and she proceeds to whack on the bomb with her smug smile, which frightens everyone. Billy puts a bomb on Damian too and he starts to panic, so Anya holds his hand assuring him that it will be okay and not to be scared. Becky calls Anya mature for this, which makes her so proud that she whacks on her bomb again. This scares Becky and Damian again, who start calling Anya an idiot. Suddenly, they are interrupted by a loud pop, and the bus starts to swerve around. The bus makes a stop, and the students are surprised to be unharmed. Police surround the bus shortly after, and the children are relieved to see them.

While the students get excited at the thought of being rescued, Billy quickly shoots it down by firing at the ceiling and yelling at them to sit back in their seats. He then makes the students cover the bus windows with black sheets, then steps outside with Damian in tow to make his demands with the police. While Billy waits for a response, the children are left to wait in anxiety, and Becky wonders if her parents and Martha have arrived yet. The children then receive rations and water, courtesy of the Blackbell company. Once Becky learns this, she is relieved to know that her father is out there. While they eat, Damian and his friends complain about the food, but Bill and Becky tell them not to complain.
