ARQ

Renton wakes up beside his former lover, Hannah. Their morning together is abruptly interrupted when three armed men invade his bedroom, taking them both hostage.

The intruders tie Renton and Hannah to chairs and reveal themselves as members of a rebel faction known as the Bloc. Father, their leader, demands money from Renton, offering a threatening ultimatum.

During captivity, Renton confesses to Hannah that he was the mastermind behind a perpetual motion machine he has named ARQ. He suspects that the Bloc is after the ARQ rather than the money they demand.

After waking with their memories, Renton discovers that the ARQ is what is keeping them trapped in a time loop. Understanding this, they devise a strategy to escape its grip, but chaos continues around them.

Determined not to let the ARQ fall into the hands of Torus, Renton and Hannah try to persuade Father for help. However, their efforts are thwarted when Father becomes a victim of Sonny's betrayal.

As the stakes escalate, Renton confronts Sonny, revealing treachery and hidden motives. This confrontation adds layers of tension and underscores the magnitude of Renton's choices.
