Lang and Saab are more sick, Zeek is wanted by the Militia. Arush meets with Lang and Saab, hoping they can develop the blueprints for other tools like lockpicks and things the MC is going to need. Lang and Arush discuss different matters, eventually leading to the issue between Zeek and the Militia. Harry gives Lang the log of the issue: Zeek destroyed a dragon egg that was given to Clark, Harry shot him down after he fled for a long time. They plan on having a trial later, Lang offers to be there for it. Gigi meets Lang shortly to give her perspective of what happened, he decides to wait till later incase it biases him for the trial. Gigi reminds Lang that he can do his age-reversal surgery later.
CJ holds the trial, questioning Zeek about his decisions after hearing his testimony. Lang fights through the haze of his sickness to barely pay attention during this trial. CJ finds Zeek guilty, 15 BBL fine, time in the shame pit, and must raise another of Arush's dragon eggs. If the dragon dies, Zeek is exiled. Clark speaks up annoyed that Zeek gets a dragon, Lang sends him to the shame pit. Zeek mutters something, so Lang calls him out for speaking and doubles his time in the shame pit. Sofia will also be given the same punishment as Zeek, but she's not around at the moment.
Arush pulls Lang aside to discuss how unjust it is for the Militia to shoot down members of New Babylon, but Lang doesn't care since that's their job. Harry is informed about Lang's suspicions of Stanley, Saab is so sick that he wants to go to bed, but Lang makes him wait until after the town hall. Saab begins the meeting by NOT giving an ad about the Merchant's Guild, Lang wants to audit people for being useless. Gigi takes Lang for his surgery, they make a decent amount of small talk while she does the procedure.
Lang calls CJ to meet after changing his hair to look younger. CJ is afraid of Lang's new look because she thought he was kinder when his hair was longer. Lang tries to get the book of evidence for Brian from her, but more scuff happens, so he heads to bed.
