Code Lyoko S4 E25

## Plot

Jeremie and Aelita are searching the Hermitage again for anything useful. Aelita finds a picture of herself and her father at Kadic. She looks really happy. It must've been one of the last pictures taken of them before they were virtualized. Jeremie sees a rough draft of a programming code written on the blackboard behind them. At lunch, Odd is upset that he can't get a girl to notice him. Aelita tells the others about the photo, and Odd decides to send the girl a picture of himself. He borrows Jeremie's computer while he gets something to eat. However, he accidentally sends the photo of Franz Hopper and Aelita… to Sissi. He realizes his mistake too late. Sissi brings the photo to her father, who tells her that Franz Hopper was a former teacher at Kadic who disappeared one day. Suzanne Hertz took his place. This supposedly means that Aelita and Odd are related to Hopper. Jeremie tells the others that the program was just to reboot the supercomputer. Odd tells the others that he accidentally sent the photo to Sissi, and Jim tells all of them that Principal Delmas wants to see them. He asks Aelita if her name is really Aelita Stones, if she's really Canadian, if she's really an orphan, and if Odd Della Robbia is really her cousin. She says yes, saying that she's the daughter of Franz and Anthea Stones. Jeremie says that on the photo, Aelita looks 12 or 13. Hopper taught at Kadic about 9 years ago. I'd say at least 10, but whatever. If that was really Aelita in the photo, then she'd be 22 years old and not 13. Good thing she didn't age, but they're still gonna wonder why a girl who looks exactly like Aelita is in the photo. Then again, near identical strangers are a thing, in real life and TV, like Taelia. Delmas decides that until they can get to the bottom of this, they're all confined to the library for the rest of the day, under Jim's supervision. XANA activates a tower in the Forest Sector, and a specter possesses Delmas. The kids learn about the activated tower. Delmas asks to have a word with Aelita alone, and Jeremie sees the Eye of XANA as his pupil. He electrocutes Aelita and knocks her out. The others rush Jim to get out of the library. Aelita is virtualized onto Lyoko. Odd fights Delmas in the factory while the others head to the computer lab. Aelita wakes up, and runs away from the Scyphozoa. Yumi and Ulrich are virtualized, and have to fight a pair of Krabs. The Scyphozoa catches Aelita, and brainwashes her. Two Tarantulas show up. Aelita starts heading towards the digital sea to throw herself in. Jeremie can't rematerialize her, because the Scyphozoa implanted an inhibitor in her brain. Ulrich tries to devirtualize her, but she takes one of his swords. Jeremie sees how Odd is doing, and tells Ulrich not to devirtualize Aelita. They need her to deactivate the tower before Delmas kills Odd. He doesn't know what to do. He realizes that he can start over by rebooting the supercomputer. It could bug up the whole system, but it could also give them the electrical shock they need to free Aelita from the Scyphozoa's control. Yumi destroys a Tarantula. Aelita disarms Ulrich. Before she can devirtualize him, everything starts shaking. The supercomputer is rebooted, and everyone freezes in place. Aelita passes out, and when she wakes up, she's back to normal. She's almost out of life points, but they'll regenerate once she's inside the tower. Yumi is devirtualized by the Tarantula. Aelita enters the tower, and Ulrich is also devirtualized by the Tarantula. Aelita deactivates the tower and saves Odd. Jeremie launches an RTTP. Aelita assures the others that Delmas never knew her as Aelita Hopper. She studied at home, so she never attended Kadic. She oh so casually reveals that her real name isn't Hopper, it's Schaeffer. This isn't some new piece of her past that she learned from the reboot either, she's known about this for awhile. When her father moved to the Hermitage, he wanted to make a brand new start. Franz was his middle name, and Hopper was her mother's maiden name. His real first name was Waldo. It turns out that Jeremie knew too, but he says it makes no difference. As far as everyone's concerned, Aelita's name is Aelita Stones.
