[00:09] ---
    What are you sighing about?
[00:11] ---
    You would sigh, too.
    Here I am, finally out of the hospital,
[00:16] ---
    but when I think of how I must again
[00:18] ---
    spend the next several
    nights without you, Sissy...
[00:21] ---
    What can I say? Tokiwadai's
    custom during the Daihasei Festival
[00:25] ---
    is for their students to stay
    with their families at a hotel.
[00:28] ---
    Yes, I realize that.
[00:30] ---
    I will suffer through the nights of loneliness.
[00:34] ---
    But in exchange,
[00:35] ---
    as soon as the Daihasei Festival is over,
[00:37] ---
    we will share a hot, passionate night...
[00:41] ---
    Come on, what are you talking about?
[00:44] ---
    Hey, mister...
[00:46] ---
    ...one extra-large, please.
[00:47] ---
    You got it! One extra-large,
    coming up. Just a moment.
[00:52] ---
    I wonder...
[00:54] ---
    ...what she decided to get.
[00:56] ---
    Sissy?
[00:58] ---
    Oh, sorry. Listen, Kuroko,
    is there anything you'd like to eat?
[01:03] ---
    This time it's my treat.
[01:05] ---
    Maybe I should get something
    for Miss Uiharu and Miss Saten, too.
[01:08] ---
    --Something light to snack on...
[01:09] ---
    --I-If it is coming from you,
    Sissy, anything will be fine...
    --Something light to snack on...
[01:14] ---
    But then, if you are offering anything...
[01:17] ---
    I would like some of your half-eaten--
[01:22] ---
    I'm here...!
[01:25] ---
    Ooh, it almost looks like there was a war here.
[01:30] ---
    Yeah, Uiharu?
[01:32] ---
    This field isn't scheduled to be used again today.
[01:35] ---
    I can search it all I want.
    I'm waiting on you for more information.
[01:38] ---
    Okay, okay, I'm way ahead of you.
[01:41] ---
    You know, I wonder what it looks like.
[01:44] ---
    Maybe it's in tiny grains, like gold dust.
[01:47] ---
    Is there any information on the color or shape?
[01:50] ---
    Hmm, about that--
[01:53] ---
    My searches are returning
    an unusually large number of hits,
[01:57] ---
    and yet there's nothing but vague
    nonsense written in any of them.
[02:01] ---
    Yeah, but like they say,
    where there's smoke, there's fire.
[02:05] ---
    If you have that many hits,
[02:06] ---
    it must mean there's something to it, right?
[02:08] ---
    That's certainly positive thinking.
[02:10] ---
    All righty!
[02:11] ---
    Time to find some Shadow Metal!
[02:18] ---
    This is a little bit weird, huh?
[02:37] ---
    "A Certain Magical Railgun T"
[03:54] ---
    I'm not finding anything here that's metallic.
[03:57] ---
    I doubt this scorched stone
    here is Shadow Metal, either.
[04:01] ---
    Nothing new on my end, either.
[04:04] ---
    For that matter, I can't find the site
    that you said you browsed earlier.
[04:09] ---
    Well, that's strange.
    I just looked at it a week ago.
[04:15] ---
    This is it, Kazari! A conspiracy! A conspiracy!
[04:19] ---
    A conspiracy?
[04:20] ---
    If you go after Shadow Metal,
[04:21] ---
    some people say you'll get
    targeted by a mysterious organization!
[04:24] ---
    If those stories are true,
    we may be closer than we think!
[04:28] ---
    Oh, are you working?
[04:29] ---
    I'm here dropping off Kuroko.
[04:32] ---
    Good. While I'm at it,
    I'll kill some time before my next competition.
[04:36] ---
    Mm-hmm, any way you look at it, that must be it!
[04:39] ---
    If we don't get a move on,
    the organization will snatch it all away!
[04:42] ---
    That makes sense. But Miss Saten,
    if these people actually exist,
[04:46] ---
    --doesn't that put you in
    considerable danger right now?
[04:49] ---
    --It sounds like you are up
    to more funny business.
    --doesn't that put you in considerable danger right now?
[04:53] ---
    Huh? Danger?
[04:54] ---
    If any organization that would manipulate
    data to monopolize Shadow Metal
[04:59] ---
    were to find you there now...
[05:01] ---
    H-Hold on, Uiharu...?
[05:03] ---
    Don't say that; you're scaring me.
[05:05] ---
    I'm joking, I'm joking.
[05:08] ---
    That's what you get
    for always flipping up my skirt.
[05:11] ---
    Oh, brother...
[05:13] ---
    Huh?! Who are--?! Hey! Wait--
[05:15] ---
    Miss Saten?!
[05:17] ---
    Miss Saten, what's the matter?!
[05:19] ---
    Has something happened?
[05:20] ---
    I-It sounded like Miss Saten
    was attacked by someone!
[05:22] ---
    Uiharu, where is she?
[05:24] ---
    The grounds at Kirigaoka, in School District 18!
[05:27] ---
    Sissy, we are off!
[05:29] ---
    --I'm coming, too--
    --Uiharu, you stay here to back us up.
[05:31] ---
    Depending on what we find,
    we might need you to contact Antiskill.
[05:36] ---
    --But--
    --Miss Uiharu...
[05:38] ---
    We've got this.
[05:48] ---
    Ow...!
[05:49] ---
    All right! All right, already, just let me go!
[05:54] ---
    You're hurting me! You're hurting me!
[05:59] ---
    Those look like...
[06:00] ---
    What do you think...
[06:01] ---
    S-Sissy,
[06:02] ---
    --...you're doing?!
    --just a moment!
[06:05] ---
    --We're sorry!
    --We're sorry!
[06:09] ---
    Our job is securing the
    school grounds and prep rooms,
[06:13] ---
    "Contestant Locker Room"
[06:14] ---
    and thoroughly cleaning them.
[06:15] ---
    You never know; somebody might show
    up trying to collect high-level esper DNA.
[06:22] ---
    In fact, there have been many
    unsuccessful attempts in the past.
[06:26] ---
    Given all that, it's only natural that
    we'd take in a prowler if we found one.
[06:30] ---
    And then you go and attack us, to boot.
[06:33] ---
    You're absolutely right.
[06:34] ---
    We are terribly sorry!
[06:36] ---
    If you've learned your lesson,
    I'm willing to let you off today--
[06:39] ---
    Excuse me...
[06:41] ---
    On a side note, have you
    ever heard of Shadow Metal?
[06:44] ---
    Huh?
[06:44] ---
    Saten...
[06:47] ---
    So not even those people
    have ever seen Shadow Metal.
[06:51] ---
    Idle gossip springing
    from people who were suspicious
[06:54] ---
    of the tight security around school grounds,
[06:56] ---
    meant to prevent the leaking of DNA maps--
[06:59] ---
    that appears to be the
    true story behind Shadow Metal.
[07:03] ---
    This is why I cautioned you about
    not getting caught up in baseless stories.
[07:08] ---
    I'm sorry.
[07:09] ---
    You, too, Sissy!
[07:10] ---
    I've learned my lesson.
[07:12] ---
    Listen to me.
[07:13] ---
    --If you will pay attention to what I say every day...
[07:14] ---
    --Ugh, this is going to be a long one.
    --Ugh, this is going to be a long one.
    --If you will pay attention to what I say every day...
[07:18] ---
    Thank goodness they're safe, anyway.
[07:21] ---
    Miss Saten really is a handful.
[07:26] ---
    Still...
[07:29] ---
    These results really are abnormal, aren't they?
[07:33] ---
    Is it possible that someone
    spammed all of this dummy data
[07:37] ---
    to keep anyone from finding
    the site that she said she looked at?
[07:41] ---
    To conceal some embarrassing
    information that was on it?
[07:44] ---
    Oh, please. Maybe Miss Saten
    is starting to rub off on me.
[07:50] ---
    But if this dummy data is something
    that was automatically generated,
[07:55] ---
    then by analyzing its pattern,
    I may be able to recreate the original site.
[08:01] ---
    That's a tall order, though...
[08:04] ---
    "Boom."
[08:07] ---
    Well, well, what have we here?
[08:10] ---
    Mm-hmm, this is exactly the
    kind of site Miss Saten told me about.
[08:14] ---
    However, the strange thing about this is...
[08:17] ---
    the information it has on
    Shadow Metal is roughly the same
[08:20] ---
    as what she was saying.
[08:22] ---
    "A very precious orange color."
[08:24] ---
    "Disciplinary Guides."
    "A DNA computer that produces abilities"?
[08:32] ---
    Huh? Isn't the person in that picture...?
[08:38] ---
    We're back.
[08:39] ---
    Ah, welcome back!
[08:41] ---
    Ugh, I'm sorry, Misaka.
[08:44] ---
    Hey, I acted without thinking, too.
    We're both to blame.
[08:49] ---
    Uiharu, I'm sorry to drag you into this, too.
[08:52] ---
    Oh, I'm just glad you're all right.
[08:54] ---
    So, have you found out anything new since we--
[08:56] ---
    --Hey!
    --Hey!
[08:57] ---
    Have you really learned your lesson?!
[08:59] ---
    Well, uh...
[09:01] ---
    Well, I did check into it my own
    way after everything happened,
[09:05] ---
    but I didn't find anything special.
[09:06] ---
    "File has been deleted"
[09:08] ---
    But never mind that, I did find some good news.
[09:11] ---
    There's a secret spot among secret spots
[09:13] ---
    where we can watch
    the night parade fireworks up close.
[09:16] ---
    Huh? For real?
[09:17] ---
    Is this someplace we can legally get to?
[09:20] ---
    It's all right. I confirmed everything.
[09:23] ---
    Oh, yeah? Doesn't that sound nice? Let's go see.
[09:54] ---
    They are so pretty.
[09:56] ---
    They do this every night during
    the Daihasei Festival, right?
[10:00] ---
    Yes, they do.
[10:02] ---
    Well, let's all meet up here again, okay?
[10:05] ---
    --Okay.
    --Okay.
[10:14] ---
    It just isn't the same not
    sleeping on your own pillow.
[10:18] ---
    So where is the Queen?
[10:19] ---
    No one has seen her since last night.
[10:22] ---
    Oh, Miss Misaka, good morning.
[10:25] ---
    Yeah, good morning.
[10:28] ---
    --You mean, she wasn't at the hotel?
[10:30] ---
    --Members of Shokuho's clique, huh?
    --You mean, she wasn't at the hotel?
[10:32] ---
    --Members of Shokuho's clique, huh?
    --No.
[10:32] ---
    Miss Misaka!
[10:34] ---
    Miss Wannai, morning.
[10:36] ---
    Good morning. Um,
    if I may be bold enough to ask,
[10:41] ---
    when can I expect my gym clothes back?
[10:44] ---
    Your gym clothes...?
[10:47] ---
    Huh? She hasn't come to return them yet?
[10:50] ---
    Pardon?
[10:50] ---
    Oh, I mean... sorry... I, uh...
[10:54] ---
    Coffee! I spilled coffee on them,
[10:57] ---
    and even having them cleaned,
    there will still be a stain,
[10:59] ---
    so let me buy you new ones.
    I'll order another set to be delivered.
[11:03] ---
    No, no, you needn't go to that much trouble.
[11:07] ---
    Mmm... Oh, Tabikake...
[11:10] ---
    A whole night has passed,
    and she hasn't returned the clothes yet?
[11:14] ---
    Has she not had enough fun
    and is trying to pass herself off as me?
[11:17] ---
    No, she isn't like that.
[11:21] ---
    I'm getting...
[11:22] ---
    "#4 Tampering"
[11:22] ---
    ...a bad feeling about this.
[11:28] ---
    These are the surveillance cameras
    near where we parted ways yesterday.
[11:34] ---
    If I look through the recordings,
    I should be able to pick up her trail.
[11:40] ---
    Nothing here. Next.
[11:43] ---
    I have more free time in my schedule today.
[11:48] ---
    Maybe I'm worried over nothing.
[11:51] ---
    But those girls' bodies need
    regular maintenance, and all.
[11:57] ---
    If something has happened to her...
[12:05] ---
    An ambulance?
[12:09] ---
    There she is. It's her!
[12:12] ---
    She's passed out. Is she hurt? Sick?
[12:14] ---
    Mm-mm, this is no time
    to let emotions take over.
[12:19] ---
    Which jurisdiction is this?
[12:23] ---
    "School District 7 Fire Station 3"
[12:26] ---
    Found it.
[12:27] ---
    It has the same number as the one on the camera.
[12:30] ---
    Excuse me!
[12:33] ---
    Who was driving this yesterday?
[12:36] ---
    Yesterday? Me and him.
[12:39] ---
    Did you transport a girl
    with shoulder-length brownish hair
[12:43] ---
    a little before noon?
[12:44] ---
    Oh, that girl?
[12:46] ---
    Mm-hmm, we took her.
[12:49] ---
    That girl is a friend of mine.
[12:52] ---
    Would you please be able to tell me
    which hospital you transported her to?
[12:56] ---
    It's the one right over there. You see it?
[12:59] ---
    That one...
[13:01] ---
    is the real-life Gekota doctor's hospital.
[13:03] ---
    He knows the situation with the Sisters.
[13:07] ---
    Thank you very much!
[13:11] ---
    If she was taken there, then I'm sure...
[13:13] ---
    "Reception"
[13:15] ---
    Huh? She wasn't brought here?
[13:18] ---
    No. There are no records of
    any emergency cases at that time.
[13:22] ---
    But the ambulance crew
    told me they brought her here.
[13:25] ---
    Perhaps they confused us with another hospital?
[13:30] ---
    No, there's no mistake. Right?
[13:33] ---
    Yeah. We definitely took her to that hospital.
[13:36] ---
    But they don't have any record--
[13:39] ---
    Wait, something's wrong.
[13:41] ---
    She was wearing gym clothes from Tokiwadai.
[13:44] ---
    --If they took her, then regardless of the hospital,
    --We got the call, and drove to the scene...
[13:47] ---
    --they would have also contacted the school.
    --We got the call, and drove to the scene...
[13:47] ---
    --they would have also contacted the school.
    --Right, and we picked up the girl, who was unconscious.
[13:49] ---
    --It's strange that a whole night has
    gone by with no action from the school!
    --Right, and we picked up the girl, who was unconscious.
[13:50] ---
    --It's strange that a whole night has
    gone by with no action from the school!
    --We contacted base, like we always do...
[13:54] ---
    Excuse me,
[13:54] ---
    but are you telling the truth?
[13:56] ---
    Huh?
[13:56] ---
    Okay, can you tell me the name of
    the hospital staff you turned her over to,
[13:59] ---
    or tell me what else happened when you did so?
[14:01] ---
    Of course we can. You see...
[14:05] ---
    Huh?
[14:06] ---
    Hey, you going addle-brained?
    Remember, we... Huh?
[14:10] ---
    Ah, hey!
[14:11] ---
    If I check the ambulance's route history...
[14:15] ---
    I knew it. They didn't go to the hospital.
[14:18] ---
    They went to an underground
    parking garage, then came back!
[14:21] ---
    Hey, come down out of there!
[14:22] ---
    She was taken there in this ambulance and
    moved to another car in the parking garage?
[14:27] ---
    --Then, where is she now--
    --That's enough, already!
[14:29] ---
    What's going on here?!
[14:31] ---
    From what I see on your route history,
    you never went to the hospital!
[14:35] ---
    Would you explain that, if you can?!
[14:38] ---
    That can't be right.
[14:39] ---
    I have conclusive proof!
    You can't talk your way out of this!
[14:42] ---
    Huh? You're the girl from yesterday...?
[14:46] ---
    What's going on?
[14:47] ---
    Why would the same girl we transported
    be faking like she went nowhere?
[14:52] ---
    Y-You're wrong! I'm...
[14:54] ---
    Hold on.
[14:56] ---
    I knew I'd seen you before somewhere.
[14:59] ---
    You're that Level 5 girl, right?
    The one that controls electricity or whatever.
[15:03] ---
    You sure you didn't use your ability
    to tamper with the route history?
[15:07] ---
    Wha-- There's no way I'd do that!
[15:11] ---
    I apologize for keeping my identity a secret.
[15:13] ---
    --But don't lie to me! Tell me the truth!
    --Hey! What are you doing?!
[15:16] ---
    --I-I'm not lying to you!
    --S-Somebody! Somebody, come here!
[15:18] ---
    If you're not lying,
    then what's wrong with your memories?!
[15:21] ---
    Everything you told me is untrue--
[15:24] ---
    Memories...? Tampering...?
[15:27] ---
    It couldn't be...
[15:30] ---
    You there! Take your hands off of him!
[15:35] ---
    There just isn't any spark
    of life in her face, you know?
[15:39] ---
    She said that the thought of
    five more nights away from Miss Misaka
[15:43] ---
    is sapping her will to live.
[15:46] ---
    Ah, that explains it.
[15:50] ---
    Huh? Uiharu?
[15:53] ---
    This street is not on our patrol route.
[15:56] ---
    Huh? That can't be true. I remember this was...
[16:00] ---
    See for yourself.
[16:02] ---
    Huh? You're right.
[16:04] ---
    Honestly, before you second-guess others,
    please pull yourself together.
[16:10] ---
    How could I have made that mistake?
[16:12] ---
    Now, now, it's no problem to circle back around.
[16:16] ---
    Do you have a moment?
[16:17] ---
    Are you ladies with Judgment?
[16:20] ---
    Uh, y-yes.
[16:21] ---
    I am a spectator from the outside,
[16:25] ---
    and I just got robbed right over there.
[16:27] ---
    Oh, that's awful!
[16:29] ---
    What did they steal from you?
[16:31] ---
    --Also, please tell me whatever you
    can about what the culprit looked like,
[16:32] ---
    --It turns out that taking the
    wrong route worked out all right.
    --Also, please tell me whatever you can about what the culprit looked like,
[16:35] ---
    --Hey! Watch what you say.
    --Also, please tell me whatever you
    can about what the culprit looked like,
[16:35] ---
    --Hey! Watch what you say.
    
    --and which way they ran.
[16:42] ---
    I can't...
[16:43] ---
    ...move...
[16:45] ---
    ...or teleport...
[16:47] ---
    What was taken was... let's see...
[16:50] ---
    ...your memories of Misaka Mikoto, let's say.
[16:55] ---
    I really am terribly sorry about this!
[16:59] ---
    Come on, let's go.
[17:02] ---
    For heaven's sake, what were you thinking?
[17:05] ---
    Very nearly committing assault
    while pranking a public agency?
[17:10] ---
    It's lucky for us that they
    were accommodating enough
[17:13] ---
    to not let this become a big incident.
[17:15] ---
    What exactly brought this on?
[17:18] ---
    While waiting for Miss Watanabe to arrive,
[17:21] ---
    I tried asking all kinds of trick questions,
[17:23] ---
    but they didn't seem to be lying.
[17:26] ---
    Which means that sure enough...
[17:28] ---
    I suspect that Shokuho Misaki
    is misusing her ability
[17:31] ---
    to cover up her committing crimes.
[17:33] ---
    If that is true, it is a serious matter.
[17:37] ---
    Do you have any evidence
    that forces you to that conclusion?
[17:40] ---
    Well, I...
[17:42] ---
    It's no use. Any way I explain this,
    I have to mention the Sisters.
[17:49] ---
    I can't say what is going on, specifically...
[17:52] ---
    Then that makes it difficult
    for me to do anything.
[17:57] ---
    Miss Misaka,
[17:59] ---
    the Daihasei Festival is currently underway.
[18:02] ---
    The attention of the world
    is focused on Academy City.
[18:05] ---
    As a Level 5, you must conduct yourself
[18:08] ---
    not only as a representative of our school,
    but of all of Academy City.
[18:12] ---
    I do realize the tremendous
    pressure this places upon you,
[18:16] ---
    but please refrain from thoughtless
    behavior even more than usual.
[18:20] ---
    You can understand that, right?
[18:22] ---
    Yes.
[18:25] ---
    I don't get it. Assuming Shokuho
    manipulated the ambulance crew
[18:28] ---
    to turn them into traffickers,
    what is her objective?
[18:32] ---
    Mm-mm, right now, that doesn't matter.
[18:35] ---
    Whatever the case, once the
    competition gets started, I'll slip out.
[18:38] ---
    The underground parking garage where
    the ambulance went is my only lead.
[18:43] ---
    Oh, this works out perfectly. Ladies,
[18:47] ---
    could I ask you for a favor?
[18:49] ---
    Miss Misaka here is feeling a
    little emotionally unstable right now,
[18:54] ---
    so I'd like for you to keep your eyes on her.
[18:56] ---
    Sure, we don't mind.
[18:58] ---
    Guards? And of all people,
[19:01] ---
    members of Shokuho Misaki's clique?
[19:04] ---
    My, Miss Misaka,
[19:06] ---
    I have long wanted to
    have a nice long chat with you.
[19:11] ---
    I will be looking forward to it.
[19:13] ---
    Y-Yeah...
[19:15] ---
    We shouldn't be causing
    trouble for our teachers.
[19:19] ---
    Miss Misaka, you're such a mischievous girl.
[19:21] ---
    What is this? I can't take it.
[19:24] ---
    Miss Misaka?
[19:26] ---
    Was that telepathy?
[19:28] ---
    Since I'm going to be watching you,
[19:30] ---
    I've connected a line to you.
[19:33] ---
    --While this line is connected,
    I will be aware of your general whereabouts.
[19:37] ---
    --Miss Misaka?
    --While this line is connected,
    I will be aware of your general whereabouts.
[19:40] ---
    If you run away,
[19:41] ---
    we will come after you at full force.
[19:46] ---
    Please start driving.
[19:48] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[19:50] ---
    I am sorry, Miss Misaka.
[19:53] ---
    It was not my hope to throw
    a wet blanket over this nice festival...
[19:59] ---
    but Miss Shokuho's "Optimization" is absolute.
[20:04] ---
    I can shake them off if I really try...
[20:07] ---
    At least I think so...
[20:10] ---
    But collecting more information
    while on the run will be really hard.
[20:17] ---
    I don't sense any open hostility
    from the clique members.
[20:21] ---
    Does that mean that Shokuho
    hasn't told them anything?
[20:25] ---
    Is that...
[20:27] ---
    Kuroko! And Miss Uiharu and Miss Saten, too!
[20:30] ---
    Uh, could I go and talk
    to my friends really quick?
[20:33] ---
    I won't run away.
[20:34] ---
    Huh? Okay.
[20:35] ---
    I can't say too much about this.
[20:37] ---
    I'll get them to help me
    without causing them any trouble.
[20:41] ---
    Kuroko! I need a little fa--
[20:45] ---
    --vor...
[20:46] ---
    What is this?
[20:47] ---
    Can I ask you to not
    call out my name so casually?
[20:51] ---
    How overly familiar.
[20:52] ---
    Miss Shirai, is she a friend of yours?
[20:55] ---
    No.
[20:56] ---
    This is Misaka Mikoto,
    an upperclassman at my school.
[21:00] ---
    Oh, you're famous! They call you "Railgun,"
    if I remember correctly!
[21:05] ---
    K-Kuroko,
[21:07] ---
    you aren't all collectively
    pulling my leg, are you?
[21:11] ---
    What are you talking about?
[21:13] ---
    Miss Uiharu... and Miss Saten...
[21:16] ---
    How does she know our names?
[21:18] ---
    Miss Shirai, did you tell her?
[21:21] ---
    No. We are not even acquainted.
[21:24] ---
    I do not know where you heard about us,
[21:28] ---
    but if you are in some trouble,
    I will hear what you have to say,
[21:31] ---
    as a member of Judgment.
[21:34] ---
    No...
[21:36] ---
    ...that's okay.
[21:40] ---
    You've really done it now...
[21:42] ---
    Shokuho!
[21:44] ---
    Now you're messing with my friends, too. This...
[21:51] ---
    ...has gone way beyond just horsing around!
[23:25] ---
    "Next episode preview"
[23:26] ---
    Shokuho, what do you think you're doing,
[23:26] ---
    "Next episode preview"
    "#5 Trust"
[23:28] ---
    tampering with Kuroko and the others' memories?
[23:30] ---
    Not to mention having
    your clique stand guard over me,
[23:32] ---
    and keeping me from looking for her!
    I have to do something...
[23:35] ---
    Miss Misaka, please let me,
    Kongo Mitsuko, deal with this!
[23:40] ---
    Huh?
[23:41] ---
    
[23:43] ---
