[00:12] ---
    Stop that, Sonic!
[00:16] ---
    This is unusual. His becoming
    this accustomed to someone
[00:19] ---
    almost never happens.
[00:21] ---
    Yeah, I know.
[00:23] ---
    Never letting themselves be caught
[00:25] ---
    is like the super sonic monkey's
    very strategy for survival.
[00:30] ---
    I mean, take me.
[00:33] ---
    It's obvious that my fighting strength is low.
[00:36] ---
    Just a second now, Mr. Riel!
    Why are you taking this in that direction?!
[00:50] ---
    Hey, now...
[00:52] ---
    I know you got more than just this!
[00:54] ---
    Cough up some more!
[00:56] ---
    Oh, no, that's all I have.
[00:59] ---
    See?
[01:00] ---
    See?
[01:01] ---
    See? See?
[01:09] ---
    Don't sidestep that!
[01:10] ---
    I will sidestep that!
[01:11] ---
    Look, you! I, the magnanimous
    Nuzruba, am using my pinky
[01:16] ---
    so I don't end up killing you!
[01:18] ---
    Be sensitive to my feelings!
[01:20] ---
    Yay! Thank you for your concern!
[01:23] ---
    You idiot! From where I stand,
    they all look like arms!
[01:30] ---
    Don't you lip off to me, Leo!
[01:35] ---
    Humas die when their heads
    are popped off, right?
[01:40] ---
    Hello, Michella. How are you?
[01:44] ---
    As you can see, your brother
    is just about to get choked out...
[01:53] ---
    Hellsalem's Lot--a city where this world
    and the alterworld intersect.
[01:57] ---
    This is the record of the clandestine activities
[02:01] ---
    of the secret society of supermen,
    Libra, who work in the shadows
[02:04] ---
    to preserve the balance of worlds.
[02:07] ---
    I’m sane, but it’s trick or treat?
[02:10] ---
    I’m right, but it’s truth certainly
[02:12] ---
    Well then “awesome!” welcome to tragedy
[02:15] ---
    Fake town, Fake town, baby?
[02:27] ---
    I’m sane, but it’s trick or treat?
[02:30] ---
    I’m right, but it’s truth certainly
[02:32] ---
    Well then “awesome!” welcome to tragedy
[02:35] ---
    Fake town, Fake town, baby?
[02:37] ---
    Giving in to emotion is an utter waste
[02:39] ---
    A moment's solace
    is an immediate nuisance
[02:42] ---
    Hello me, hello you, there are no timeouts
[02:45] ---
    Fake town, Fake town
[02:46] ---
    See, I don't even know when
[02:49] ---
    I started thinking this way
[02:51] ---
    I'd gotten myself so ready to be a winner,
[02:54] ---
    it's a shame about the pandemonium
[02:57] ---
    I've forgotten what my percentage
    is at finding happiness
[03:01] ---
    There's no God, I don't want one,
    even if there was
[03:04] ---
    Whose "you are here" is this?
[03:07] ---
    You decide whether it's bitter or sweet
[03:11] ---
    "I hate what I hate, buzz off, shut up"
[03:14] ---
    You're probably well past
    getting by like that
[03:17] ---
    In this town, if all you do is complain
[03:19] ---
    the rule is that no one
    will give you the time of day
[03:23] ---
    Ah, just get in on this call
    or drop of a lifetime
[03:26] ---
    Even man-eating ghouls
    are clapping their hands
[03:29] ---
    Here's the round of applause
    you've been waiting for
[03:33] ---
    Here are the foolproof winning odds
    you've been waiting for
[03:39] ---
    That hurt. Damn it.
[03:46] ---
    No, this is no time to get discouraged.
[03:49] ---
    This is what always happens.
    What's the point of feeling down each time?
[03:54] ---
    Get back on your feet, Leonardo!
[04:08] ---
    What? What just happened? Did I just
    get struck on the back of the head
[04:13] ---
    by something falling out of the sky?
[04:15] ---
    What is that? A billion-to-one?
    Right after being shaken down?
[04:20] ---
    Isn't that more like a trillion-to-one?
    No. That's hard to accept.
[04:25] ---
    Wah! The Hyber Grag
    Gigaramd Womegabalson!!
[04:29] ---
    Ah! This is definitely too much!
[04:35] ---
    Hey, I'm sorry for losing my cool there.
[04:41] ---
    Hmm, there's some swelling
    on the back of your head,
[04:44] ---
    but for the moment, your life
    doesn't appear to be in danger,
[04:47] ---
    my microgigantic young man.
[04:50] ---
    I am the clockwork doctor, Li Gado.
    I'm a hyperdoctor,
[04:54] ---
    fighting against various pathogens
    with my superweapons.
[04:59] ---
    No, not over there, not over there.
[05:01] ---
    Huh?
[05:02] ---
    I'm over on this mobile gangplank.
[05:13] ---
    Hmm? What is it?
[05:16] ---
    Oh, I was just thinking
    I've seen a lot of things up to now,
[05:19] ---
    but this one takes the cake.
[05:31] ---
    Seriously...
[05:33] ---
    What the hell am I doing?
[05:36] ---
    Warden Alice, please remain
    quiet in the museum.
[05:38] ---
    I know! But you can
    at least allow me to vent.
[05:42] ---
    We don't have much choice.
    He's a cubism buff.
[05:46] ---
    I doubt he would let the chance
    to see a visiting Cézanne pass by.
[05:49] ---
    That's a topic for another day.
[05:51] ---
    He's an SS-level prisoner under
    Dreadnought-class oversight.
[05:55] ---
    There's no way he can be allowed outside
    like this as if it were nothing.
[05:59] ---
    I understand your position, Warden.
    That is why...
[06:03] ---
    ...we had the building specially cleared.
[06:05] ---
    Publicly, that might be fine.
    But more than anything,
[06:10] ---
    this situation upsets
    my official responsibilities.
[06:13] ---
    That's something I cannot tolerate.
[06:15] ---
    I'm terribly sorry.
[06:16] ---
    I would ask that you please
    take into account his usual behavior.
[06:29] ---
    I ran away.
[06:31] ---
    My friend was getting beat up, and I ran.
[06:34] ---
    Sure, Nuzruba has broken my bones
    head-to-toe with one shot before,
[06:40] ---
    but it wasn't that...
[06:47] ---
    If only I were bigger,
    and I had more strength...
[06:52] ---
    I wouldn't have had to go through all this.
[06:55] ---
    Yeah, right?
[06:57] ---
    --Huh?
    --It's true, right?
[07:00] ---
    Who...
[07:01] ---
    ...are you?
[07:05] ---
    Bacterial terrorism?
[07:07] ---
    I know about that.
[07:08] ---
    It's a kind of terrorist activity
    that uses biological weapons, right?
[07:11] ---
    No, no, you have it backward.
    He is a terrorist bacterium.
[07:15] ---
    Hmm?
[07:16] ---
    His name is Gemnemo.
    He's a conscious, proactively acting...
[07:21] ---
    "Super-dangerous microbe"
[07:22] ---
    ...super-dangerous microbe.
[07:24] ---
    Hmm... I don't know...
[07:28] ---
    Then again, I am sitting here
    chatting with a fluently speaking flea.
[07:33] ---
    Flea?
[07:35] ---
    Oh, this? This is a reinforced exosuit
    to keep out the outside air.
[07:39] ---
    Huh?! So, what--you're actually
    even smaller than that?!
[07:43] ---
    Yes. I'm a microbe, too, after all.
[07:46] ---
    Anyhow, I have to find Gemnemo
    as soon as possible and arrest him.
[07:51] ---
    He's a genius, and the first among
    germkind to master sorcerology.
[07:55] ---
    According to our latest intelligence,
[07:57] ---
    he has successfully pioneered
    a hyperaugmented method
[08:00] ---
    for accelerated cytological division.
[08:03] ---
    Oh.
[08:05] ---
    If I'm too late, an unprecedented
    disaster will be unavoidable.
[08:09] ---
    However, my only hope,
[08:13] ---
    the supergiant doomsday weapon,
[08:15] ---
    the Hyber Grag Gigaramd
    Womegabalson Q, wound up like this.
[08:21] ---
    You mean, that thing
    that hit the back of my head
[08:24] ---
    and broke apart all-too-easily?
[08:29] ---
    Oh, Mrs. Landlady.
[08:30] ---
    Hello, Leonardo. Do you have a moment?
[08:36] ---
    It looks like Patricia can't
    climb her way back up again.
[08:40] ---
    I hate to ask, but could I presume
    upon your monkey again?
[08:44] ---
    I'll wait a little while longer
    for last month's rent.
[08:48] ---
    We'll do it! Sonic, you're on!
[08:54] ---
    Hey, are you sure about this?
[08:57] ---
    The space between buildings here
    is a veritable maze.
[09:01] ---
    We've retrieved other lost items
    from down there before.
[09:04] ---
    With me navigating, we can manage.
[09:06] ---
    Navigating? Hmm?
[09:18] ---
    Go left there. Now, go down.
[09:23] ---
    That's it, just keep going straight.
[09:33] ---
    Thank you.
[09:34] ---
    Not at all. Thank you for your indulgence.
[09:39] ---
    I see. The secret must be those eyes of yours.
[09:44] ---
    That's it, right?
[09:49] ---
    Yes.
[09:58] ---
    Um, aren't you...?
[10:00] ---
    Ah, you work with Leo.
[10:04] ---
    Huh?
[10:06] ---
    You seem a little different
    since we met last time.
[10:10] ---
    I do?
[10:12] ---
    That being said...
[10:16] ---
    Would you mind lending me 20 zeros?
[10:20] ---
    I'll get Leo to pay you back later.
[10:22] ---
    But I...
[10:23] ---
    Come on, be a pal. Okay?
[11:01] ---
    It's true, right?
[11:03] ---
    Ultimately, power is what
    makes the world go around.
[11:06] ---
    Those who are trampled on
    get their noses pressed to the ground,
[11:09] ---
    while those who do the trampling
    enjoy a better view
[11:11] ---
    the more people they have under them.
[11:15] ---
    But unfortunately for you,
    your kind of frailty is hopeless.
[11:20] ---
    Being able to crawl your way up
    is a dream within another dream.
[11:25] ---
    Tell me, wouldn't you like to see it?
[11:28] ---
    Huh?
[11:28] ---
    Go ahead and tell me what you're feeling.
[11:32] ---
    You want to see it, right? Or would you
    rather give up without seeing...
[11:36] ---
    ...the view of the conqueror?
[11:46] ---
    Hey, you!
[11:50] ---
    What's the big idea--
    not even saying hello, eh?!
[12:16] ---
    "Desperate Fight in the Macro Zone Part 1"
[12:20] ---
    It's finished!
[12:25] ---
    The viral aggression surgical strike cannon,
[12:27] ---
    the Fuldra Radrict Huvaserganon 7000-AR!
[12:32] ---
    I can neutralize 99 percent
    of the Gemnemo threat with this!
[12:36] ---
    Oh! It's a mighty world-saving spear of justice!
[12:40] ---
    It looks to me like nothing more
    than an awfully elaborate plastic model.
[12:43] ---
    Don't call it a model!
[12:45] ---
    But regrettably, this is the best
    I can fix it up with the parts I have.
[12:49] ---
    Huh?
[12:51] ---
    I've sent a message
    to my headquarters, but apparently
[12:54] ---
    repairs to my regular gear, the Grag
    Gigaramd Vedabalson, aren't done yet.
[12:59] ---
    What are you going to do?
    You have a weapon, but you can't use it?
[13:02] ---
    You and I have no choice
    but to manage on our own.
[13:04] ---
    Huh?
[13:07] ---
    Just you and me!
[13:10] ---
    Why are you so certain
    that I'm getting mixed up in this?
[13:14] ---
    I told you!
[13:15] ---
    This is a major event that will
    determine the fate of the world!
[13:18] ---
    --Oh.
    --Why are you being so low-key?!
[13:21] ---
    Well, see, your apocalyptic doomsday weapon
[13:25] ---
    only has enough force to give me
    a bump on the back of my head.
[13:29] ---
    Your talk about the fate of the world seems...
[13:32] ---
    Unbelievable! This is what's wrong
    with you giant people!
[13:35] ---
    Your way of seeing things is too crude!
[13:37] ---
    Huge? That's the first time
    I've ever been called that.
[13:41] ---
    I'm always getting called "pee-wee,"
    and getting poked and pushed around.
[13:47] ---
    That's the crudeness I mean!
[13:49] ---
    Maybe you can't do anything
    about winning on strength alone,
[13:51] ---
    but don't go judging the world by that metric!
[13:56] ---
    So, you brought him here?
[13:58] ---
    Yes. Do you have any information?
[14:01] ---
    About any sinister activities
    going on in Hellsalem's Lot?
[14:05] ---
    What can I say? Troublemaking is kind of
    the background music of this city.
[14:10] ---
    Hmm... About the latest news I have
    is that Zapp was put in the hospital.
[14:15] ---
    Huh?
[14:16] ---
    He was in a shoving match
    that turned into a traffic accident.
[14:19] ---
    How does that happen?
[14:20] ---
    Hmm... I'm not sure about
    anything that man does.
[14:24] ---
    So, this hyperaugmented method
    for accelerated cytological division--
[14:30] ---
    what's that all about?
[14:32] ---
    In broad terms, it's a means of enlarging
    and strengthening living things.
[14:37] ---
    First, he performs his procedure
    on a target germ--
[14:40] ---
    it is implanted into a subject
[14:43] ---
    where it then multiplies.
[14:45] ---
    Knowing Gemnemo,
[14:47] ---
    it doesn't simply strengthen
    and enlarge the body's tissues;
[14:50] ---
    you can bet he has his sights set
    on spontaneous evolution
[14:52] ---
    of the physical structures--skeleton and all.
[14:59] ---
    F-Forgive me...!
[15:01] ---
    Please forgive me...!
[15:02] ---
    Not yet, Nuzruba. Why are you
    screaming after just one pinky?
[15:07] ---
    I had compound fractures all over my body.
[15:13] ---
    I'm going to give you an exhaustive sampling
[15:15] ---
    of what those who have
    been hit by you felt!
[15:23] ---
    What do you say?
[15:25] ---
    This is the perspective of the strong.
[15:27] ---
    Having things that you've never
    seen before come into view...
[15:31] ---
    ...is irresistible, isn't it?
[15:40] ---
    Police! Get your hands up!
[15:42] ---
    Hmm? Urgh, this is brutal.
[15:46] ---
    Brutal? What do you know about brutal?
[15:54] ---
    --Freeze!
    --What these guys have already done to me...
[15:58] ---
    ...was much, much...
[16:27] ---
    Ooh, that was good, that was good!
[16:30] ---
    That Cézanne was really good, huh?
[16:33] ---
    It shouldn't be so surprising.
    What, did you think dirty pictures
[16:36] ---
    are the only things prisoners are interested in?
[16:41] ---
    Do the two of you discuss paintings and such?
[16:45] ---
    Well, only about what we like
    and don't like. Know what I mean?
[16:48] ---
    He's not much for debating,
[16:51] ---
    but if I have him paint a little bit,
    he does show some talent.
[16:55] ---
    Oh, that truly is fascinating.
[16:58] ---
    I think I'll send you
    some art supplies sometime.
[17:00] ---
    Really?! All right!
[17:02] ---
    Roll something else up for me
    and slip it in with the crayons, okay?
[17:07] ---
    I'm just kidding!
[17:24] ---
    --Whoa!
    --Awesome!
[17:32] ---
    Exocrimson!
[17:36] ---
    Catch...
[17:37] ---
    ...and... Release!
[17:41] ---
    "Catch & Release"
[17:44] ---
    Ha-ha-ha! Imagine it raining policesuits!
[17:47] ---
    This is some really nasty weather, huh?
[18:07] ---
    It's me. There's an emergency situation
    on New Third Avenue.
[18:11] ---
    An unidentified giant person
[18:13] ---
    is engaging a riot police unit.
[18:16] ---
    Just to be safe, alert all personnel.
    DEFCON level 2.
[18:19] ---
    Prepare for emergency mobilization!
[18:29] ---
    Big Brother Klaus,
    should we be going out there?
[18:33] ---
    Warden?
[18:35] ---
    Permission granted.
[18:37] ---
    Secure him as soon as possible.
[18:39] ---
    Understood.
[18:42] ---
    Yahoo!!
[18:46] ---
    Ah.
[18:47] ---
    Also, Steven, leave a message for Gilbert.
[18:50] ---
    Tell him to please cancel
    my whole schedule for tonight.
[19:03] ---
    Exocrimson.
[19:10] ---
    13 feet?
[19:12] ---
    For a near-human type,
    that's still awfully huge.
[19:16] ---
    Ah!
[19:18] ---
    Mr. Riel?!
[19:19] ---
    What, you know him?
[19:21] ---
    Yeah, but...
[19:23] ---
    He should weigh even less than I do.
[19:26] ---
    That's it!!
[19:30] ---
    There can be no question!
    Listen to me, Leonardo!
[19:33] ---
    There's perhaps an
    80-percent-or-better probability
[19:35] ---
    that your friend is a pathogenic terrorist.
[19:38] ---
    He's had Gemnemo's procedure done to him.
[19:41] ---
    Huh?
[19:42] ---
    Using the hyperaugmented accelerated
    division load on his cell tissues,
[19:45] ---
    his torn muscle fibers
    form even thicker muscles.
[19:49] ---
    Just as a broken bone
    is sturdier as it reconnects,
[19:52] ---
    when this is forcibly repeated
    instantly and endlessly,
[19:55] ---
    he becomes an explosive bodybuilder!
[19:58] ---
    So, um... what you're saying is...
[20:02] ---
    Slugging or wrestling with him
    are both bad. Anything you do
[20:06] ---
    will be turned back on you twice as hard.
[20:22] ---

[20:29] ---
    "Unbreakable Cross Shield"
[20:29] ---
    ...Unzerbrechlich Kreuzschild!
[20:37] ---
    Klaus! It's possible that caution
    may be needed with that target!
[20:41] ---
    Refrain from attacking him unduly!
[20:43] ---
    We just confirmed that.
[20:45] ---
    Attempting to capture him.
[20:49] ---
    Brain Grid Blood Battle Technique, form 39...
[20:58] ---
    "Wedge Barricade"
[20:58] ---
    ...Keilbarrikade!
[21:02] ---
    Warden!
[21:03] ---
    Take Hummer and the others
    and move away from here!
[21:06] ---
    What are you going to do?!
[21:07] ---
    Stay here and keep
    peripheral damage in check.
[21:11] ---
    Steven, I've never seen a special ability
    like this target has before.
[21:15] ---
    If you have any more information,
    more details would be--
[21:23] ---
    Wh-What the...?
[21:36] ---
    Big Brother Klaus, look out!
[21:49] ---
    "Hundred Crack Fist of the Me"
[21:50] ---
    Hundred Crack Fist of the Me!
[23:47] ---
    I'm sorry, Sonic. I cannot
    understand monkey language.
[23:51] ---
    Zapp, if you would?
[23:53] ---
    Ah, he says he wants a banana for a reward.
[23:56] ---
    I guess they don't call him
    "dumb monkey" for nothing, huh?
[23:58] ---
