4.0

With the groundwork that was laid down in the first trilogy, it makes it hard not to be invested in these characters, mistakes and all. Passions and fire can bring about misguided choices and take you down a path you may not be able to recover from. But, there is always a hope that someone will throw you a bone and a helping hand.
