[Jessie's is a video, and hers will play at some point during that montage:]

Hold on tight.

[The video containing Jessie’s secret starts with a gigantic birdlike creature. It flies upwards towards a dark, stormy sky. Below the bird, there’s nothing but snow on the ground below, some sort of rocky mountain in the background. The video focuses briefly on a boy and his pet. The yellow animal’s face might be recognizable to some, it was on the video screen that showed examples of who the participants could call during the week seven motive. The bird twists and turns in the sky, and eventually something else becomes visible.

Jessie and two others are clinging to the giant bird’s leg despite all the aerial acrobatics and danger. Nearby, two more oversized bird monsters soar closer and move back while attacking the bird Jessie is clinging to. The first fires flames incessantly at the bird, and the second fills the sky with lightning with a flap of its wings.

The first person to cry out is Jessie, her voice panicked and masked by the winds and attacks going on around her.]

We’re slowing Lugia down, the three of us are too heavy!

[The next person who speaks up is a man who wears the same R as Jessie does. His voice is panicked as well.]

Let’s try Weight Watchers!

[Jessie sounds more annoyed this time.]

It’s too late for that!

[The cat-like creature speaks last, his voice reaching a new level of frantic.]

I heard it’s never too late if you really stick to the prograaaaam!!!

[Regardless of their banter, the movements in the sky only get worse. Lugia, the bird Jessie mentioned, does an aerial flip to avoid some of the attacks, but its movements are sluggish, restrained. Team Rocket yells in both fear and exhaustion before they start to speak again, once more starting with Jessie.]

If we don't let go, they may not make it back!

Let's protect the world from devastation!

Guess we gotta let go...

Are you guys ready?!

Let's do it!

Team Rocket's blasting off for good...!

[And just like that James, Meowth, and, most importantly, Jessie let go of Lugia. The boy on the back of the bird calls out—"What are you doing?! Team Rocket!!!” as he watches them fall. Jessie quickly grabs onto James’ hand and Meowth’s with each of her own. James grabs onto Meowth’s hand as well, and they form a circle as they start to plummet to the frosty ground thousands of feet below them.]

Think we did the right thing?

[Jessie has tears in her eyes. She sounds accepting but worried; James reassures her.]

I know we did the right thing, Jessie. And it feels great.

Well, this is it, then...

[Meowth also sounds like he’s about to cry. They all pull into a hug, each embracing the other as they fall.]

Let's not say goodbye.

Let's just say...

...we're gonna die!

[The video feed cuts.

Jessie's secret is heroism and sacrifice.

Her scream can be heard all over the ship, because she's standing in one of the bottom deck hallways when it goes off.]

[ooc; or you can have. the clip, i guess.]
