Five years have passed since the occurrence of the incident known as the "Human Annihilation Mission." In Japan, a novelist is dealing with writer's block after her friend has gone missing. In Hong Kong, three sisters, masters in the use of paper, run their own detective agency to solve cases that involve books. When these people are brought together, a bond greater than blood is formed - a bond that will be sorely tested by the evil powers intent on taking over the world. Join Anita, Maggie, Michelle, and Nenene as they travel the globe in order to save the world from the evil mastermind, Mr. Carpenter! Of course, that's if they can find the time to put down the books they're reading...

S1E26 — From There On…

With Yomiko, Nenene, and the Paper Sisters captured, the Gentleman transfer begins, and the heroes attempt to talk Joker and Wendy out of their plan. Drake creates a distraction while Nancy infilrates the Resurrection Chamber to free Junior. Nenene reveals she's hidden her manuscript under her shirt, providing ammunition for the Paper Masters, and the fight very quickly turns to their favor. Junior transfers part of the Gentleman energies into Joker's mind, sending him white haired and catatonic. Junior is freed from the Gentleman Key, although it tries to attach itself to Anita instead and nearly kills her. Ultimately, the Ressurrection Project fails, the British Library collapses, sending its members on the run. Wendy hides in the country to nurse Joker. Michelle makes sure Junior is back to normal, while Maggie does the same for Anita, and Nenene and Yomiko join Nancy on a trip to India so Nancy can recover some of her memories. Drake returns home to his daughter.
