She asks them to give the key back, and the mice go and retrieve the Black Lion key from a boot. One day, she met the mice and they had been friends. She explains that she grew up as an only child in a huge castle, and her parents were always away attending to royal matters. Princess Allura appears on the scene and asks why they are hurting the mice. They interrogate the mice, trying to get them to give up the location of the Black Lion key.

Pidge leads the team to the mice's nest and sets a trap, successfully trapping them. The key is still not there, and they notice a mouse hole, wondering what could chew through solid rock. You didn't abandon me, you were just half dead. They decide to search for the key, and Sven suggests going back to the royal tomb in the castle underground.

Then he hears snoring coming from the speakers. When he regains consciousness, Pidge learns that his teammates set out in the lions to look for them, but they were defeated by the robeast in battle. He makes his way to the control room and collapses. After a long walk, Pidge finally makes it back to the castle, seeing the space mice. Meanwhile, one of the cave dwellers leads Pidge back to the castle via underground tunnels which King Alfor had apparently built.
