[00:03] Natsuki
    So you lied to me?
[00:05] Atri
    What's the matter?
[00:06] Atri
    Oh!
[00:07] Atri
    Did you have another bad drea--
[00:10] Natsuki
    Shut up!
[00:11] Sign
    HE THEN ASKED WHY.
    
    I SAID IT WAS THE LOVERS FORM OF LIKE.
    
     I TOLD HIM I LIKED HIM FROM THE BOTTOM
    OF MY HEART.
    
    NATSUKI DOESN'T SEEM TO DOUBT ME.
[00:16] Natsuki
    So you just acted like you had a heart?
[00:19] Atri
    Acted like? What do you mean by--
[00:22] Natsuki
    It means you were lying!
[00:23] Natsuki
    It means that you were saying
    things you didn't actually mean!
[00:29] Atri
    I do not understand.
[00:31] Atri
    My job is to be of use to you
    and to make you happy, Natsuki.
[00:36] Atri
    That is what prompts my actions.
[00:41] Natsuki
    Did you mean it when you said
    that you may have a heart?
[00:45] Natsuki
    Did you say that because you
    truly believe you do?
[00:55] Atri
    No...
[00:56] Natsuki
    Then I order you!
[00:57] Natsuki
    Do not act like you have a heart!
[00:59] Natsuki
    Don't try to make me happy!
[01:06] Atri
    Yes, sir.
[01:10] Natsuki
    Why did you lie to me?
[01:12] Atri
    I have already answered that question.
[01:15] Natsuki
    Do you love me?
[01:18] Atri
    The way you are right now...
[01:23] Atri
    I dislike you.
[01:37] Natsuki
    Don't follow me!
[03:28] Atri
    I'm high-performance, after all!
[03:31] Natsuki
    So it was all a lie...?
[03:34] Natsuki
    That... and that...
[03:37] Natsuki
    And that, and that, and that...
    All of it.
[03:40] Natsuki
    They were all just lies?
[04:05] Sign
    A LEG FALLING INTO THE ABYSS
[04:16] Ryuuji
    Are you sure he's okay?
    It seems pretty serious.
[04:20] Ririka
    Yeah. When I found Mr. Natsuki
    collapsed on the ground,
[04:23] Ririka
    I thought my heart was going to stop.
[04:29] Minamo
    Thanks, you two. I'll talk to him
    so you guys can go.
[04:34] Ryuuji
    Are you sure about this?
[04:35] Minamo
    Yeah.
[04:36] Ririka
    Okay, we'll leave the rest to you.
[04:55] Minamo
    Did you two have a fight?
[05:00] Natsuki
    Minamo...
[05:02] Natsuki
    Did you know?
[05:07] Minamo
    Know what?
[05:09] Natsuki
    I mean... I did know.
    She's a Humanoid, after all.
[05:15] Natsuki
    There's no way she'd have a heart.
[05:20] Natsuki
    All Atri is doing is
    selecting the best action
[05:24] Natsuki
    by comparing her situation
    and people's reactions
[05:27] Natsuki
    to a vast pool
    of corresponding data.
[05:30] Natsuki
    When it's best to smile, she smiles.
[05:32] Natsuki
    When it's best to be mad, she's mad.
[05:34] Natsuki
    She executes her program
[05:36] Natsuki
    and makes the appropriate expression
    and chooses the right words.
[05:42] Natsuki
    That's what a Humanoid does.
[05:56] Minamo
    You know...
[05:57] Minamo
    I think humans are sort of the same way.
[06:03] Minamo
    That's how I am.
[06:04] Minamo
    I observe who I'm talking to and think
    about how I should respond to them.
[06:10] Minamo
    I observe their reactions and expressions
    and think about what I should say next.
[06:15] Minamo
    What even is a heart?
[06:19] Minamo
    Even if we know we're wrong,
    even if there's nothing to gain,
[06:25] Minamo
    we still end up doing something
    or saying something.
[06:30] Minamo
    As you said, Natsu-kun,
    I believe that Atri has a heart.
[06:38] Minamo
    I think it's just that Atri
    isn't sure what she should do.
[06:44] Minamo
    She's anxious about having a heart.
[06:52] Natsuki
    Hot...
[06:53] Minamo
    Sorry, I thought you might be cold...
[06:56] Minamo
    Should I have cooled it down more?
[06:58] Natsuki
    It's fine.
[07:02] Natsuki
    This is perfect.
[07:11] Minamo
    Morning!
[07:13] Minamo
    I went to check on Atri this morning,
    but she was acting like she usually does.
[07:17] Minamo
    She said she's heading to school.
[07:20] Natsuki
    I see.
[07:22] Minamo
    I'll tell Atri and the others at school that
    you've caught a cold so you're not coming in today.
[07:27] Natsuki
    No, I'm going, too.
[07:29] Minamo
    Huh?
[07:30] Natsuki
    If I can't hold class,
    it'll inconvenience everyone at school.
[07:34] Minamo
    But...
[07:35] Natsuki
    Not to mention...
[07:37] Natsuki
    I can't just ignore Atri forever.
[07:42] Minamo
    I figured you'd say that...
    so I brought your uniform.
[07:50] Miyo
    It keeps coming down.
[07:51] Ririka
    Yeah.
[07:53] Toru
    Oh.
[07:54] Toru
    Mr. Natsuki!
[07:57] Ririka
    Huh?
[07:58] Ririka
    Where's Atrin?
[08:01] Natsuki
    She's not here?
[08:02] Minamo
    But she said she'd come...
[08:11] Natsuki
    What's this?
[08:12] Catherine
    I don't know who sent it.
[08:14] Catherine
    But it contains a report on the recall
    of Yamasaki Factory's 4th gen models.
[08:19] Natsuki
    Yamasaki Factory...
[08:22] Natsuki
    So Atri's model?
[08:23] Catherine
    Yeah. I'm assuming someone who
    knew that she's here sent that.
[08:31] Natsuki
    One went berserk?
[08:33] Catherine
    The unit in question
    ignored its master's orders,
[08:37] Catherine
    infiltrated a school,
    and severely harmed a child.
[08:39] Natsuki
    Atri did?
[08:40] Catherine
    I'm not sure if she's the exact
    one that caused that incident.
[08:44] Catherine
    But the total number of that
    model that were sold is 58.
[08:49] Catherine
    All of them were recovered except for one.
[08:52] Catherine
    The one who caused the incident
    fled and went missing.
[08:57] Catherine
    But Yamasaki Factory concealed
    that information.
[09:01] Catherine
    At the same time of the recall trouble,
[09:03] Catherine
    the demand for Humanoids went down
    and the company was dissolved.
[09:06] Catherine
    They never finished
    recovering the last model.
[09:09] Natsuki
    Are you saying that's Atri?
[09:12] Catherine
    I don't have any proof.
[09:14] Catherine
    It's very possible that
    this report is also fake.
[09:17] Catherine
    But since I take care of children,
    I can't simply ignore this either.
[09:22] Catherine
    I talked to her myself. "I'm sorry,
    but I can't let you into the school."
[09:32] Catherine
    Go on. I owe you anyway.
[09:35] Catherine
    I'll take care of the school.
[09:39] Natsuki
    Thanks.
[09:50] Natsuki
    Atri... went berserk?
[09:54] Natsuki
    Is that why her memories were deleted?
[09:57] Natsuki
    No... Maybe she was just pretending and...
[10:01] Natsuki
    Could it be...
[10:19] Natsuki
    Who are you?
[10:20] Yasuda
    My name is Yasuda.
[10:22] Yasuda
    I was in the development department
    at Yamasaki Factory...
[10:26] Yasuda
    For Humanoids.
[10:29] Yasuda
    I'm sorry to bother you
    when you're in a hurry...
[10:31] Yasuda
    But do you mind if we have a little chat?
[10:38] Yasuda
    The rain sure isn't letting up.
[10:41] Yasuda
    It must be hard getting
    around with that leg.
[10:43] Yasuda
    I'm in the same boat.
    I definitely understand.
[10:47] Natsuki
    You don't need to beat
    around the bush. Just tell me.
[10:50] Natsuki
    Is the one who went berserk and
    caused that incident Atri?
[11:13] Natsuki
    I'm sure that handwriting looks familiar.
[11:17] Natsuki
    Atri's log...
[11:22] Yasuda
    YHN-04B-009.
[11:25] Yasuda
    That's that unit's official serial number.
[11:29] Yasuda
    Our goal when producing the fourth-gen models
[11:32] Yasuda
    was to further establish human-like
    memories and learning,
[11:36] Yasuda
    so we had them produce logs
    by reading and writing.
[11:40] Natsuki
    "Today is the day that I
    meet my first master."
[11:44] Natsuki
    "My master's name is..."
[11:47] Sign
    MY BUYER SAID: "I'M BUSY.
    TAKE CARE OF THIS KID FOR ME."
    
    MY MASTER'S NAME IS SHIINA.
    
    FEMALE, 9 YEARS OLD.
    SHE SAID, "LET'S BE FRIENDS!"
[11:48] Natsuki
    "Shiina."
[11:51] Yasuda
    Well?
[11:55] Natsuki
    No... That can't be true!
[12:06] Yasuda
    Creating copies of us humans...
[12:10] Yasuda
    Is that one of human science's end goals...
[12:13] Yasuda
    ...or a taboo we should never commit?
[12:16] Yasuda
    That's what Professor Konishi
    was trying to figure out.
[12:22] Yasuda
    Konishi...
[12:24] Yasuda
    That's my mentor. The one
    who created that Humanoid.
[12:28] Yasuda
    Due to that Humanoid
    going berserk,
[12:30] Yasuda
    he lost his research lab
    and died.
[12:34] Yasuda
    I need to recover that unit
    that we were still researching,
[12:39] Yasuda
    and dispose of it.
[12:42] Yasuda
    I believe that's the only way I can set things
    right with society and the professor.
[12:47] Yasuda
    Will you help me recover it?
[12:53] Sign
    RECOVERY CONSENT FORM
[12:55] Yasuda
    There's only one unit left.
[12:57] Yasuda
    Once that unit is destroyed,
    my job will be done.
[13:02] Yasuda
    I understand how you feel.
[13:04] Yasuda
    Those fourth-gen models
    were extremely well made.
[13:07] Yasuda
    They observed the algorithm of human emotions
[13:10] Yasuda
    and they successfully acted like
    they actually had emotions.
[13:15] Yasuda
    But it's not like they actually have hearts.
[13:21] Yasuda
    I'm sure you realized it, as well.
[13:23] Yasuda
    No matter how much emotion you express
    to them, it will not reach them.
[13:27] Yasuda
    Listen well. The only thing
    that's going to break...
[13:30] Yasuda
    ...is your own heart.
[13:38] Natsuki
    Let me think about it a while...
[14:04] Natsuki
    I'm back.
[14:05] Atri
    Welcome back.
[14:10] Natsuki
    You're acting different.
[14:12] Atri
    Since you ordered me to.
[14:15] Natsuki
    So if I ask you to speak to me
    like you usually do, you would?
[14:20] Atri
    If you order me to do so.
[14:24] Natsuki
    Then I order you...
[14:25] Natsuki
    Speak to me like you usually do.
[14:30] Atri
    Welcome back, Natsuki!
[14:32] Atri
    Are you hungry?
[14:36] Natsuki
    Yeah. Come to think of it,
    I haven't eaten anything.
[14:39] Atri
    Oh, no! That's terrible!
[14:41] Atri
    Just one moment! I'll go
    warm up some Mom #2!
[14:47] Natsuki
    You mean curry.
[14:48] Atri
    H-How did you know?!
[14:51] Natsuki
    It's common to have curry the day
    after we have meat and potatoes.
[14:55] Natsuki
    Because they have the same ingredients.
[14:57] Atri
    Is that so? You're amazing, Natsuki!
[15:05] Natsuki
    Atri.
[15:06] Atri
    Yes?
[15:07] Natsuki
    Don't act like you have a heart.
[15:18] Atri
    Yes, sir.
[15:25] Atri
    Here you go.
[15:45] Atri
    Is it delicious?
[15:47] Natsuki
    Does it make you happy when
    I say it's delicious?
[15:54] Atri
    Yes.
[15:54] Natsuki
    Stop lying to me!
[15:55] Natsuki
    This doesn't make you happy!
[15:57] Natsuki
    Your AI is just going to remember
    that as the correct response!
[16:02] Atri
    Yes.
[16:04] Atri
    Because I am a Humanoid.
[16:08] Atri
    I am sorry.
[16:11] Natsuki
    No...
[16:13] Natsuki
    I should be the one to apologize.
[16:15] Natsuki
    I'm sure you're not sure what
    to do in this situation.
[16:19] Atri
    That is correct.
[16:22] Atri
    Are you going out?
[16:24] Natsuki
    I want to be alone. Don't follow me.
[16:48] Subordinate A
    What should we do?
[16:53] Radio
    The developing low-pressure atmosphere
    will increase its wind speed,

[16:56] Radio
    so please be wary of heavy rain.
[16:59] Radio
    Coastal areas will be very
    windy, so ships...

    RECOVERY CONSENT FORM
[17:21] Natsuki
    What's that?
[17:27] Natsuki
    I'm being washed away?
[17:28] Natsuki
    Crap!
[17:37] Natsuki
    What is that?
[17:45] Natsuki
    Atri!
[18:08] Natsuki
    "Ririka came by and said that the school is
    in trouble so I will accompany her back."
[18:17] Natsuki
    The notebook...
[18:19] Natsuki
    Crap!
[18:33] Sign
    I LOVE YOU
[18:36] Natsuki
    O-Of course...
[18:41] Natsuki
    Why didn't I realize…
[18:43] Natsuki
    I...
[18:48] Sign
    SHIINA... I LOVE YOU
[18:49] Natsuki
    Atri...
[18:49] Sign
    I LOVE YOU
[18:50] Sign
    LOVE YOU
[18:51] Natsuki
    Atri!
[19:01] Miyo
    Ms. Hana-chan...
[19:03] Catherine
    You're rotten enough to take kids hostage?
[19:06] Yasuda
    You have no reason to worry.
[19:08] Yasuda
    As soon as that unit gets here,
    we'll release them immediately.
[19:13] Yasuda
    You'll just have to wait
    a little bit longer.
[19:15] Yoko
    Didn't Ririka go get Atri?
[19:19] Ryuuji
    Yeah. They should be here any minute.
[19:29] Yasuda
    There it is.
[19:33] Yasuda
    Where's your master?
[19:35] Ryuuji
    Where's Natsu?
[19:36] Ririka
    I couldn't... find him anywhere.
[19:40] Minamo
    Natsu-kun...
[19:41] Yasuda
    It doesn't matter.
[19:43] Yasuda
    Come over here.
[19:56] Toru
    Atri...
[19:58] Toru and Miyo
    Ms. Hana-chan!
[20:01] Catherine
    There, there. You're safe now.
[20:06] Minamo
    What are you planning to do with Atri?
[20:19] Minamo
    Atri!
[20:25] Yasuda
    Now, then. Let the real show begin!
[20:28] Yasuda
    I need you all to burn this sight
    into your memory.
[20:32] Yasuda
    Witness just how dangerous
    this Humanoid truly is!
[20:40] Yoko
    Atri!
[20:42] Ryuuji
    You bastard!
[20:46] Subordinate
    Shut up and watch.
[20:50] Yasuda
    Honestly...
[20:54] Yasuda
    You went berserk and caused that incident,
    ruined the professor's credibility,
[20:58] Yasuda
    and even had the nerve to flee.
[21:00] Yasuda
    Just how much suffering are you
    going to put people through?
[21:07] Yasuda
    The professor created you...
[21:11] Yasuda
    Yet you want to hurt him so badly?
[21:20] Minamo
    Atri!
[21:30] Natsuki
    Damn it...
[21:44] Natsuki
    Come on...
[21:46] Natsuki
    please.
[21:48] Natsuki
    I need...
[21:51] Natsuki
    To that piece of scrap...
[21:53] Natsuki
    I need... to go see her!
[21:59] Natsuki
    She's insolent even though
    she's a robot...
[22:03] Natsuki
    She keeps saying she's high-performance,
    but only makes mistakes...
[22:10] Natsuki
    She never shuts up, and she does all
    the wrong things at the worst times.
[22:16] Natsuki
    But she's got a heart more
    beautiful than any human!
[22:19] Natsuki
    I need to see that piece-of-scrap Humanoid!
[22:27] Yasuda
    You defective trash!
[22:29] Yasuda
    It's because of you that the professor...
[22:32] Yasuda
    The professor... the professor...
[22:35] Yasuda
    The professor!
[22:41] Yasuda
    If only... If only you were never created...
[22:54] Natsuki
    Atri?!
[22:56] Catherine
    Stop!
[22:58] Catherine
    That's more than enough.
[22:59] Yasuda
    Huh? What are you talking about?
[23:02] Yasuda
    This is a Humanoid. This is nothing.
[23:08] Yasuda
    Isn't that right?
[23:10] Catherine
    Stop!
[23:12] Yasuda
    If anything, I guess you got really good at
    tricking humans into feeling sorry for you.
[23:17] Yasuda
    You are truly a terrifying Humanoid.
[23:20] Yasuda
    There's no saving you.
[23:22] Yasuda
    You monster!
[23:26] Natsuki
    Atri!
[23:34] Atri
    Natsuki...
