    "Episode 20: Massacre Highway"
[02:07] ---
    What are you doing?!
[02:09] ---
    Stop!
[02:25] ---
    How'dya like that, jackass?!
[02:32] ---
    Attention, three large motorcycles ahead.
[02:35] ---
    You are in violation of Articles 5
    and 8 of the RAPT Traffic Laws.
[02:41] ---
    You are advised to pull over and
    voluntarily report to the authorities.
[02:46] ---
    Outta the damn way!
[02:50] ---
    You are warned again.
[02:51] ---
    Any further acts of
    reckless driving or destruction
[02:54] ---
    will be met with compulsory execution.
[02:57] ---
    Shut up! Stupid cop!
[03:00] ---
    Die, loser!
[03:03] ---
    Warning judged as ignored.
[03:09] ---
    Commencing compulsory execution.
[03:11] ---
    Huh?
[03:16] ---
    It's fast!
[03:23] ---
    Execution!
[03:30] ---
    Execution!
[03:34] ---
    The hell?!
[03:37] ---
    And you call yourself a cop?!
[03:46] ---
    Help!
[03:48] ---
    As you have ignored your warnings
    and interfered with official duties,
[03:52] ---
    you will not be granted the right
    to a lawyer or a formal trial.
[03:57] ---
    Therefore...
[03:59] ---
    ...execution!
[04:03] ---
    Executions completed. Removing blockade.
[04:11] ---
    We have earned ardent gratitude
    from the citizens in response
[04:15] ---
    to the latest patrol vehicle
    we've tested on the Mega Highway.
[04:20] ---
    Henceforth, the city of
    Tokyo shall continue to strive
[04:23] ---
    for a stable, just government
    and pleasant city life.
[04:31] ---
    What a weird cop car.
    Looks like a praying mantis.
[04:34] ---
    But it has pretty awesome specs!
[04:38] ---
    Its mount during high-speed combat
    is at Django's level, maybe higher!
[04:56] ---
    We have prototypes deployed at the moment,
[04:59] ---
    but once we hit mass-production
    we'll have a 24-hour system
[05:02] ---
    at each point,
    allowing for emergency dispatches.
[05:05] ---
    That's certainly ideal.
[05:08] ---
    As the population increases,
    so will the number of lowlifes.
[05:12] ---
    From now on, people will not choose the city;
[05:15] ---
    the city will choose the people.
[05:25] ---
    I really owe you one!
[05:28] ---
    I was just thinking about
    headin' back to Osaka!
[05:31] ---
    But what a surprise! To think
    I'd run into you in Tokyo...
[05:36] ---
    I'm the surprised one! To think
    ol' Mika was getting married!
[05:40] ---
    Can't stay a troublemaker forever.
[05:43] ---
    Right, Ta-chan?
[05:44] ---
    Nope!
[05:45] ---
    Watch out when you have lovers' quarrels,
[05:48] ---
    she'll seriously shove a needle up your nose!
[05:51] ---
    A needle?
[05:52] ---
    Boss!
[05:55] ---
    Oops, me and my big mouth! My bad!
[06:04] ---
    "Traffic Violator"
[06:09] ---
    "Reckless Driving"
[06:12] ---
    You don't scare me, cop!
[06:16] ---
    You don't scare me, cop!
[06:51] ---
    You have ignored your warnings
    and obstructed official duties!
[06:55] ---
    Therefore, you will now be
    forcefully removed from the road!
[07:00] ---
    Execution!
[07:02] ---
    Execution!
[07:16] ---
    Bastard!
[07:26] ---
    What is that?!
[07:28] ---
    Ta-chan! Drive safe! Don't
    let that thing give us trouble!
[07:32] ---
    I know!
[07:37] ---
    What the-- What's going on?!
[07:41] ---
    Not good!
[07:43] ---
    Jump out, you two!
[07:53] ---
    Boss!
[08:00] ---
    Screw you, you moron cop car!
[08:13] ---
    Boss!
[08:19] ---
    Damn you! You'll pay for this!
[08:24] ---
    Alright! Where's the guy in charge?!
[08:27] ---
    Please calm down!
[08:29] ---
    The hell with that!
[08:31] ---
    One of your stupid cop
    cars busted up my friends!
[08:35] ---
    Go get your head honcho right now!
[08:40] ---
    Number 1 went berserk?
[08:42] ---
    She claims it suddenly attacked
    with no warning whatsoever.
[08:46] ---
    That doesn't matter! Get it back in here!
[08:49] ---
    But if it's true, then it's acting
    on its own, outside of our control,
[08:55] ---
    which means...
[08:56] ---
    Are you saying there's a problem?
[08:59] ---
    I assume you know full well
    just how much talent and money
[09:02] ---
    was invested into the
    development of the Road Raiders?
[09:06] ---
    Of course.
[09:08] ---
    Development of their Third
    Neurons was done in top secret,
[09:13] ---
    but their innards are most surprising.
[09:16] ---
    You can even call them the final
    evolutionary forms science has reached.
[09:21] ---
    It was for that belief that I
    poured my soul into the project, anyway.
[09:25] ---
    We feel the same way.
[09:28] ---
    A few sacrifices are to be
    expected with scientific progress.
[09:32] ---
    If we let ourselves fret over every one,
[09:34] ---
    then our ideal vision for the
    future will be but a pipe dream.
[09:38] ---
    I'll say it once more.
    There is nothing wrong with Number 1!
[09:42] ---
    Get rid of the dolt at once!
[09:46] ---
    I ain't leaving 'til he comes out!
[09:50] ---
    Oh? Is that the only way
    you're gonna respond?
[09:55] ---
    Now things're interesting!
[09:57] ---
    Perfect!
[09:59] ---
    I'll throttle you lousy Tokyo jerks!
[10:03] ---
    This means war!
[10:09] ---
    Of all the times!
[10:11] ---
    Who's this?! I'm busy right now!
[10:14] ---
    Huh? Where?
[10:17] ---
    Behind me?
[10:23] ---
    Things were gettin' good! Why'd you stop me?!
[10:26] ---
    The odds looked pretty stacked against you.
[10:29] ---
    Get real! That was my chance
    to pound on some Tokyo creeps!
[10:34] ---
    Anyway, I can't just back down now!
[10:37] ---
    The helpless citizens need retribution, too!
[10:40] ---
    I don't suppose you could
    quietly return to Osaka?
[10:43] ---
    What for?!
[10:45] ---
    It will be hard to perform our jobs
    if we get into trouble with RAPT.
[10:50] ---
    This is why I hate Tokyo people.
[10:53] ---
    That's right. This is Tokyo, not Osaka.
[10:57] ---
    There are unseen forces
    at work. It's not so simple.
[11:01] ---
    Sure, whatever. I do have a
    hankerin' for some good takoyaki...
[11:06] ---
    I thought you might, so I got you a ticket!
[11:09] ---
    And if I say I won't leave?
[11:12] ---
    Then I'll get you a special seat in
    the refrigerator of a long-haul truck.
[11:16] ---
    Talk about cruel.
[11:19] ---
    You're certain?
[11:20] ---
    Yes! We just confirmed it!
[11:23] ---
    Data on Number 1 is being drained.
[11:27] ---
    How much?
[11:28] ---
    Over 50%.
[11:29] ---
    The circuits in the RAPT Info
    Command Center have been compromised.
[11:33] ---
    Have you tracked down the culprit?
[11:35] ---
    The hacking is being done
    while moving around town.
[11:38] ---
    They keep changing relay stations, too.
[11:41] ---
    These are no amateurs.
[11:45] ---
    It they're pro hackers, we may have
    a new type of terrorist on our hands.
[11:50] ---
    Shall I inform the governor
    and ask for orders?
[11:53] ---
    No, wait! Not just yet.
[11:56] ---
    Put Number 1 in the dock.
[11:57] ---
    Cut the link with Info Command
    before the rest of the data gets stolen.
[12:36] ---
    Preparation is underway for
    mass-production at private factories.
[12:42] ---
    Please inform the governor
    that Numbers 2 and 3
[12:47] ---
    will be rolled out on schedule.
[12:49] ---
    Also, Number 1 is undergoing
    readjustment for Stage 2 of the project.
[12:55] ---
    Adjustment? Did an issue
    arise during the current stage?
[13:00] ---
    No, it's only needed so we can
    record data from practical application.
[13:06] ---
    There are no particular issues...
[13:09] ---
    "Slippery When Wet"
[13:13] ---
    They sure look like huge gravestones...
[13:18] ---
    The sun seems kinda sad, too...
[13:27] ---
    Screw you, you moron cop car!
[13:39] ---
    Come again?!
[13:40] ---
    Number 1 is ignoring our orders
    and is presently on the Mega Highway!
[13:46] ---
    Is it the hackers' doing?
[13:48] ---
    I don't know.
[13:49] ---
    Where is Number 1 headed?
[13:51] ---
    Unknown. There's no
    response to our calls, either.
[13:54] ---
    Have a chopper follow it
    and check the situation!
[13:56] ---
    And keep cars from getting on until
    we get the situation under control!
[14:17] ---
    Are you serious?!
[14:20] ---
    Yes. I'm sorry.
[14:22] ---
    The two units on standby destroyed
    their hangar shutters and left!
[14:36] ---
    They appear to be heading
    for the Mega Highway, but--
[14:39] ---
    Hello? Hello?!
[14:41] ---
    It can't be... Is Number 1...
[14:52] ---
    This is the place!
[14:54] ---
    This is where the stupid cop
    car attacked us last night!
[14:59] ---
    How did it come after you?
[15:01] ---
    I dunno, but it slid right
    behind us outta nowhere.
[15:06] ---
    By the time I spun around, it was--
[15:09] ---
    Hey, there it is!
[15:10] ---
    Eh? You serious?!
[15:11] ---
    Crap! It's attacking again!
[15:14] ---
    No way! We didn't do anything!
[15:16] ---
    That's exactly why it's a stupid cop car!
[15:19] ---
    It looks like you're pretty popular...
[15:23] ---
    Quit joking around!
[15:25] ---
    Attention, large vehicle traveling ahead.
[15:28] ---
    One of your passengers is wanted
    for obstruction of official duties.
[15:33] ---
    Pull over immediately
    and follow the orders given.
[15:35] ---
    In the event you ignore this
    warning or attempt to resist,
[15:39] ---
    you will be seen as aiding the escape
    of a suspect and be met with force.
[15:46] ---
    This doesn't bode well.
[15:50] ---
    Here it comes!
[15:57] ---
    Eat this!
[16:01] ---
    Impossible!
[16:03] ---
    Number 2 hasn't completed its
    battle program simulations yet!
[16:07] ---
    I can only assume Number 1 is instructing it.
[16:11] ---
    What on earth happened to Number 1?!
[16:16] ---
    What's the deal?
[16:23] ---
    Yikes!
[16:24] ---
    Sei! Don't slow down!
[16:26] ---
    Jo?!
[16:27] ---
    Smash into the sudden turn
[16:29] ---
    and open the rear hatch when I give the word!
[16:33] ---
    Understood!
[16:38] ---
    Now!
[16:55] ---
    I knew it! That cop car
    was no ordinary cybot!
[17:00] ---
    A glowing brain...
[17:02] ---
    What's she mean?
[17:03] ---
    There was a living brain in that cop car!
[17:06] ---
    Obviously! I bet some
    complete idiot was driving it!
[17:10] ---
    I already told you, it's
    a personified bio-device!
[17:14] ---
    I got no clue what you're sayin'...
[17:17] ---
    Still, why do you suppose it attacked us?
[17:20] ---
    She's right, it might've been
    built based off of some crazy guy.
[17:26] ---
    My guess is that its
    thought control went berserk.
[17:31] ---
    Almost like Frankenstein's monster...
[17:34] ---
    I'd like more data,
[17:36] ---
    but it would be best to
    get off the highway for now.
[17:39] ---
    I don't think that's a choice.
[17:41] ---
    Looks like they still want to play tag!
[17:46] ---
    You're saying Number 1's
    target is that large trailer?!
[17:50] ---
    It appears to be an unlicensed vehicle.
[17:54] ---
    It's possible that it's related
    to whoever hacked into us.
[17:59] ---
    In which case, that means...
[18:02] ---
    ...it's likely Number 1 deemed
    that trailer to be dangerous
[18:06] ---
    and acted of its own accord.
[18:09] ---
    Now I see! Number 1's duty is
    to remove suspicious vehicles.
[18:14] ---
    And it requested help from
    Numbers 2 and 3 to accomplish that...
[18:19] ---
    Indeed. Number 1 is not acting wildly.
    It's performing properly!
[18:24] ---
    Execution!
[18:50] ---
    Amy! Where's an exit?!
[18:52] ---
    200 meters right!
[19:03] ---
    Hold on!
[19:10] ---
    Ow!
[19:11] ---
    Looks like they won't let us out.
[19:14] ---
    They trying to shut us up?!
[19:16] ---
    Amy! Can you remove the lock on the exit?!
[19:19] ---
    I can, but it might take time.
[19:24] ---
    Wow. It opened.
[19:25] ---
    Way to go, Amy!
[19:27] ---
    But I haven't done anything!
[19:33] ---
    How many are there?!
[19:34] ---
    I'm flooring it!
[19:38] ---
    This is Sky Fish ♪404.
[19:40] ---
    Number 1 is currently in
    combat with an unknown cybot.
[19:44] ---
    Entering Red-Blue Bridge.
[20:22] ---
    It's no use! I can't stop it or dodge it!
[20:27] ---
    Jo! Just you run away!
[20:33] ---
    Sei!
[20:35] ---
    I won't run away!
[20:38] ---
    Jo?!
[20:39] ---
    Bring it on, Sei!
[20:49] ---
    Hold on, Sei!
[20:50] ---
    What're you doing?!
[20:51] ---
    That's dangerous, Sei!
[20:53] ---
    Jo! I have faith in you!
[21:35] ---
    Execution... Execution...
[21:39] ---
    Execution...
[21:44] ---
    ♪ 404 reporting. Numbers 1
    and 3 seriously damaged.
[21:47] ---
    Unknown cybot and trailer
    escaping toward the coast.
[21:51] ---
    I repeat, Numbers 1 and 3 seriously...
[22:10] ---
    I remained motionless within the crowd
[22:18] ---
    Not even the voice of my
    tears carried on this street

[22:25] ---
    as my feelings of lonesomeness joined it
[22:33] ---
    In truth, everyone wants
    to smile with each other,

[22:42] ---
    yet they get hurt when
    they can't do it very well

[22:49] ---
    But someone will always be there to watch,
[22:58] ---
    so let's walk together beneath this sky
[23:25] ---
    When the crumbling town is
    stained red by the evening sun,

[23:29] ---
    the angel with plucked wings
    will fly into the sky once more.

[23:33] ---
    On the next Burst Angel,
    "Bullets in the Iron Grave Post."

[23:36] ---
    "Bullets in the Iron Grave Post"
