Ep. 8: Shu and Lala-Ru escape quicksand and a carnivorous plant while Sara is rescued in the desert.
An unidentified individual discovers Sara buried in the desert and transports her to a nearby village. Meanwhile, speculation arises that Hellywood might be powered by utilizing available water as fuel. Nabuca and Boo are tasked with maintaining secrecy regarding the location of Shu and Lala-Ru. The pair travels on a motorcycle, but their vehicle becomes stuck in quicksand. Shu defends Lala-Ru from a carnivorous plant that has ensnared her with red vines. It is disclosed that Lala-Ru grows weaker each time she utilizes her pendant, and her abilities are often taken for granted when required on demand. Shu eliminates the plant using grenades retrieved from a backpack left beside a corpse. As they resume their journey, Shu tells Lala-Ru that not everyone in the world is evil.
