Summary

Pinako Bookend #1

Pinako is disappointed in Central Control for not telling her much about Nephrite aside from the fact that he had attacked a ball just to get at the Diamond Kingdom's Imperial Crystal. While Central tells her that because of this failure, Queen Beryl had enough of Nephrite, while a clip from one of the episodes plays. Central then tells Pinako that Zoisite orchestrated a plan to hasten Nephrite's destruction, and it was working. Pinako then asks if Serena ever snapped Molly out of her "Fan Club" phase as Spectrix begins telling Pinako about it.

Molly's Folly

Edits

Since Central Control's retelling of "Molly's Folly" begins nearly halfway into the actual episode, a significant portion of the first half was cut, the only clips that were seen from the first half was Queen Beryl's attempt to contact Nephrite, Zoisite, and Kunzite, sending out Yasha.
