Tory starts to worry about how Jake and Alex are going to take over the kingdoms, and how she's going to return home. In an effort to get Jake to stop stonewalling, Seth tells Tory that it might behoove her to see if the bracelets Alex still has on his wrists work in Hildegarde. Once they establish that the bracelets don't have any effect in Hildegarde,  Jake is willing to sit down and consider the idea of taking the mantle of power over the Delphic Kingdom.
