[00:09] Gu
    This is the story of how I,
    a police officer living in a certain city,
[00:13] Gu
    became a hero.
[00:16] Gu
    At least, that's the plan.
[00:21] Gu
    The police have just entered the building!
[00:24] Gu
    Leading the team is the hero
    of the police department,
[00:28] Gu
    a young man who's solved many dangerous
    cases and won countless awards!
[00:32] Gu
    the living legend, Sam Purcell!
[00:34] Gu
    But that's not me.
[00:37] Gu
    This is the police! Drop your weapons
    and put your hands on the ground!
[00:57] Gu
    Stay out of the room!
[01:13] Gu
    I'm afraid right now, there's
    no hero in this town just yet.
[01:19] Gu
    This inhuman power... can it be?
[01:23] Gu
    Yes. An Anthem.
[01:25] Gu
    Also not me.
[01:26] Gu
    The patches are what's hot right now.
[01:33] Gu
    From this point on, this matter
    is under our jurisdiction.
[01:40] Gu
    Phase 3 confirmed.
[01:42] Gu
    Roger. Secure the target.
[01:44] Gu
    In accordance with
    Lisvalletta City-state Code,
[01:46] Gu
    Execution of Law Enforcement
    Authority Act, Article 12,
[01:50] Gu
    I will now use my weapon.
[01:54] Gu
    You think that gun can hurt it?
[01:55] Gu
    Our job is only to arrest it.
[01:58] Gu
    Enjoy!
[02:20] Gu
    Activating Eye System.
[02:36] Gu
    Time to get to work.
[03:07] Gu
    Enjoy!
[03:12] Gu
    Time for your medicine.
[04:05] Gi
    You owe me one, Doug.
[04:12] Gu
    Who are you?
[04:15] Gu
    Doug Billingham. SEVEN-O Special
    Crime Investigation Unit.
[04:19] Gu
    My rank is Sergeant.
[04:29] Gu
    This is me.
[04:31] Gu
    I'll say it again.
[04:33] Gu
    This is the story of how I became a hero,
[04:35] Gu
    in a town where there were no heroes.
[04:38] Gu
    No! This story is absolutely not
[04:39] Gu
    about what this guy with the
    girly-looking face says it is!
[04:47] Gi
    What is with you and thirty-eights?
[04:51] Gu
    It's 'cause I'm a detective!
[04:54] Gu
    Yes. This is a story about
    story about detectives!
[04:57] Gu
    Detectives who are willing to
    risk their lives for their duty!
[05:02] Gu
    Too bad!
SIGN    #01 Howl at the Two Suns!
[05:20] Gu
    My name is Kirill Vrubel.
[05:22] Gu
    Right now I'm just a
    uniformed police officer...
[05:28] Gu
    Miraculously, there were no casualties
    in the incident last night...
[05:34] Gu
    Someday, the whole city of Lisvalletta's
    gonna know my name, just like they know his!
[05:42] Gu
    Some of you guys know what
    I'm talking about, right?
[05:44] Gu
    One day, this wad of bills will save my life.
SIGN    LVPD Precinct Six
[05:49] Gu
    Are you stupid?
[05:51] Gu
    How can you be so sure it'll never come up?
[05:53] Gu
    So let's say something did
    happen to the chief inspectors.
[05:56] Gu
    What the hell can you do? Huh?
[05:58] Gu
    This is my boss. The chief
    of LVPD Precinct Six.
[06:01] Gu
    Listen, your job is to keep the gawkers
    out of the area and safe. Am I wrong?
[06:08] Gu
    You're correct, sir.
[06:09] Gu
    I can tell you this right now.
[06:10] Gu
    I'll be the man who fires your dumb ass!
[06:13] Gu
    I've got three years to go before
    I retire, and it's going to happen!
[06:17] Gu
    Yes, sir. I'll be careful from now on.
[06:20] Gu
    Just try it, bastard!
[06:24] Gu
    You have to write another apology
    for leaving your post, I heard.
[06:27] Gu
    Huh?
[06:28] Gu
    How many times have you abandoned
    your post by now, Kirill?
[06:32] Gu
    Every time, we have
     this exact same conversation.
[06:33] Gu
    I'm not abandoning my post,
    I'm providing backup.
[06:41] Gu
    This sharp-looking guy with the
    slightly wavy hair is Jefferson,
[06:45] Gu
    a detective with Section 1,
    the most popular part of the force.
[06:51] Gu
    He has a beautiful wife,
[06:52] Gu
    a cute daughter, and he's
    an all-around great guy.
[06:55] Gu
    He got a promotion during
    this quarter's re-org.
[06:59] Gu
    Just what you'd think of
    when you think of a hero.
[07:02] Gu
    I don't mind that, though.
[07:05] Gu
    That part of you.
[07:08] Gu
    It's not quite enough...
[07:12] Gu
    But I'll take this as payment for
    all the money you owe me.
[07:15] Gu
    Wait, that's...
[07:16] Gu
    Don't worry.
[07:18] Gu
    Even without it, you're not going to die.
[07:29] Gu
    This is the guy?
[07:32] Gu
    He's the only candidate who
    fit the conditions I laid out.
[07:37] Gu
    Beggars can't be choosers.
[07:39] Gu
    Well, I suppose not.
[07:41] Gu
    Anyway, Doug. I heard Cyrus is back in town.
[07:45] Gu
    Cyrus? The guy from Esperanza?
[07:48] Gu
    Yup.
[07:49] Gu
    Somebody saw him in the 3rd Street Slums.
[07:52] Gu
    That's what Pink just told me.
[07:54] Gu
    It's not been verified yet,
    so just keep it in mind, I guess.
[07:59] Gu
    Yeah. Either way, he's a Phase 1.
[08:08] Gu
    Why do I have to do this, though?
[08:12] Gu
    It's my day off!
[08:13] Gu
    And that's why I'm asking you for help.
[08:15] Gu
    Have the Community Safety Section down at
    the station help you find your damned cat!
[08:20] Gu
    You're a cop, too, aren't you?
[08:22] Gu
    I told you, you old witch, it's my day off!
[08:25] Gu
    I worked the night shift last
    night and I'm tired!
[08:28] Gu
    Oh, so that's how this is gonna be, huh?
[08:30] Gu
    I guess that photograph
    is just going to have...
[08:33] Gu
    Fine! Fine! I'll-look-for-it.
[08:37] Gu
    Good to hear!
[08:40] Gu
    What the hell is this?
[08:42] Gu
    Damn that stupid landlord...
[08:45] Gu
    That's blackmail, damn it!
[08:57] Gu
    And how am I supposed to find
    it with this crappy picture?
[09:05] Gu
    That's it!
[09:07] Gu
    Here Pochi...
[09:13] Gu
    That's gotta be Pochi!
[09:16] Gu
    Damn it! Wait, you stupid cat!
[09:21] Gu
    Stop running!
[09:24] Gu
    It's supposed to be my day off!
[09:27] Gu
    Wait!
[09:29] ---
    Damn it!
[09:36] Gu
    Stupid cat...
[09:42] Gu
    Just you wait...
[09:46] Gu
    My day off!
[09:50] Gu
    Good boy... I'm catching you
    and going back to sleep!
[09:59] Gu
    What?
[10:00] Gu
    You've got kids?
[10:03] Gu
    Fine.
[10:06] Gu
    Lemme know when you're done.
[10:14] Gu
    Wh-What was that?
[10:19] Gu
    Who is that?
[10:23] Gu
    What is going on here?
[10:28] Gu
    Jefferson...
[10:30] Gu
    And now an update on the hostage
    situation developing in Sileoterra.
[10:35] Gi
    The man hijacked a taxi and fled,
[10:37] Gi
    taking the driver hostage and escaping
    into an abandoned factory in the area.
[10:42] Gu
    He demanded the release of Zabel Franken,
[10:46] Gu
    the imprisoned executive of the
    criminal organization Esperanza,
[10:48] Gu
    as well as a helicopter
    to allow him to escape.
[10:50] Gu
    The police are negotiating with him.
[10:53] Gu
    Negotiations broke down!
[10:54] Gu
    They've just announced that
    negotiations have broken down!
[10:57] Gu
    The man has been identified as
    Esperanza executive Cyrus Martinez,
[11:04] Gu
    AKA One-Armed Cyrus.
[11:07] Gi
    Hey, they said it's Cyrus!
[11:09] Gu
    Yeah, I heard.
[11:11] Gu
    Cyrus is a Phase 1.
[11:13] Gu
    SEVEN-O doesn't have jurisdiction yet.
[11:16] Gi
    We lost Derick to that bastard!
[11:18] Gu
    Even if one of us goes down,
[11:20] Gu
    we can't do a thing without
    proof of Anthem usage.
[11:24] Gi
    That's why you're a !
[11:27] Gu
    You don't need to be so mean...
[11:30] Gi
    Wait, where's Doug?
[11:32] Gi
    He was just here.
[11:43] Gu
    Holy crap...
[11:54] Gu
    This is it!
[11:59] Gu
    This is the situation I've
    waited for all my life!
[12:03] Gu
    Allow me to explain!
[12:05] ---
    Ever since he was a child, this man, Kirill,
[12:08] ---
    has had the same fantasy

    every night before bed:

[12:10] ---
    The school (or a similar place) was attacked

    by terrorists and everyone was about to die,
[12:15] ---
    when, for some reason, he was conveniently*
    in the enemy's blind spot!
[12:24] ---
    But what do I do?
[12:26] ---
    That's right! He always falls
    asleep before he finishes
[12:29] ---
    getting the situation set up in his head,
[12:31] ---
    so he never spent any time thinking about
    how, exactly, he would save the day!
[12:36] ---
    I'll just come back later, I guess.
[12:39] ---
    Please don't kill me!
[12:41] ---
    I've got a kid!
[12:42] ---
    Begging for your life? Pathetic!
[12:46] ---
    Aren't you some kind of elite cop?
[12:48] ---
    Is this really happening?
[12:49] ---
    Is Jefferson going to die?
[12:55] ---
    You know him?
[12:59] ---
    Don't worry.
[13:00] ---
    Guys like that always survive.
[13:05] ---
    If you want to save him,
[13:07] ---
    I think I know a way.
[13:11] ---
    Huh?
[13:20] ---
    Yeah, I'm a cop, but...
[13:23] ---
    SEVEN-O?
[13:25] ---
    What, you don't know about us?
[13:27] ---
    We're an organization whose
    job is to arrest Anthem users.
[13:29] ---
    I-I do know you...
[13:32] ---
    I turned the wrong way coming up the pipe,
[13:35] ---
    and now my leg's stuck and I can't get out.
[13:39] ---
    I owe Cyrus some payback.
[13:42] ---
    One of our officers got set up during
    an undercover investigation of him.
[13:49] ---
    Undercover investigation?
[13:51] ---
    Do you know how Anthem Phases work?
[13:54] ---
    Oh, of course.
[13:56] ---
    He's still Phase 1.
[13:58] ---
    Until we get proof, we can't do anything
    but undercover investigations.
[14:01] ---
    Kirill accidentally said
    he knew when he didn't,
[14:04] ---
    so we'll explain instead!
SIGN    All matters relating to Anthem
    are divided into Phases.
[14:06] ---
    All matters relating to Anthem
    are divided into Phases.
SIGN    "Suspected Usage"
[14:09] ---
    Phase 1 is "Suspected Usage."
SIGN    "Ascertaining Usage"
[14:11] ---
    Phase 2 is "Ascertaining Usage."
[14:13] ---
    When it reaches that phase, all
    jurisdiction is transferred to SEVEN-O!
[14:17] ---
    I see! Well, we can't do a thing
    without proof either way, can we?
[14:21] ---
    Yeah. But the way I see it,
    Cyrus will likely soon be Phase 3.
[14:27] ---
    Phase 3?
[14:28] ---
    Anthem-induced Overdrive.
[14:31] ---
    Over...drive?
[14:33] ---
    A side effect of Anthem usage is
    that sometimes its users mutate,
[14:37] ---
    and gain inhuman powers.
[14:40] ---
    That's Overdrive.
[14:42] ---
    He used Anthem. I came to make sure of that.
[14:46] ---
    But, how do you even do that?
[14:48] ---
    There's a special mark on your body
    that appears when you use Anthem.
[14:52] ---
    I can't see!
[14:54] ---
    I see...
[14:56] ---
    Then, do you want to try to be a hero?
[14:59] ---
    What's your name?
[15:02] ---
    Kirill.
[15:04] ---
    Constable Kirill Vrubel.
[15:08] ---
    I see.
[15:09] ---
    Constable Vrubel.
[15:11] ---
    No, Sergeant Vrubel.
[15:12] ---
    No, I'm...
[15:15] ---
    If you do what I tell you, you might find
    yourself with a posthumous promotion.
[15:20] ---
    How about it?
SIGN    Constable
SIGN    Senior Constable
SIGN    Sergeant
[15:22] ---
    Th-That's a huge promotion!
[15:25] ---
    Kirill didn't know what the word
    "posthumous" meant! It means you're dead!
SIGN    Dead
[15:29] ---
    Hey, what's going on?!
[15:31] ---
    You've got five minutes!
[15:32] ---
    Is that the cops?
[15:33] ---
    W-Wait!
[15:35] ---
    As you can see, I'm not with the police.
[15:38] ---
    A man? I-If you ain't a cop,
    then what the hell are you?
[15:44] ---
    Kirill...?
[15:44] ---
    Good, you're alive.
[15:46] ---
    Hey, what the hell are you doing here?
[15:51] (Flashback) ---
    If I see the mark, I just
    press this button, right?
[15:54] (Flashback) ---
    Yup. I'll go around near
    the entrance side and wait.
[15:58] (Flashback) ---
    As long as we have proof,
    we can take jurisdiction.
[16:00] (Flashback) ---
    Then, I can make this work.
[16:03] (Flashback) ---
    Don't worry.
[16:05] (Flashback) ---
    I just can't get out. I can go back down.
[16:08] (Flashback) ---
    Just give me 30 seconds.
[16:11] (Flashback) ---
    My long years of experience
    tell me that that's plenty.
[16:14] (Flashback) ---
    But how...?
[16:15] (Flashback) ---
    You're going to be a hero, right?
[16:17] (Flashback) ---
    Believe in yourself!
[16:20] (Flashback) ---
    Listen, Constable Vrubel.
[16:22] (Flashback) ---
    I mean it. Throw him off his
    game and buy me some time!
[16:25] ---
    Say something, damn it! Who are you?
[16:29] ---
    You want to know who I am?
[16:34] ---
    As you can see, I'm just a time traveler!
[16:40] ---
    A time traveler?
[16:41] ---
    Yeah. Can I turn around?
[16:44] ---
    Don't worry. Just stay calm, Kirill.
[16:46] ---
    Don't think! Feel so good!
SIGN    °Don't think! Feel so good!
[16:54] ---
    The bastard put on a jacket!
[16:57] ---
    Goddamn weirdo... die!
[17:06] ---
    Overdrive!
[17:10] ---
    I thought it was a transmitter!
[17:14] ---
    What is going on here?
[17:16] ---
    What is this smoke?
[17:18] ---
    Constable Vrubel, secure the hostage.
[17:22] ---
    He's crazy!
[17:24] ---
    Yeah. When they hit Phase 3,
[17:26] ---
    you're allowed to get...
[17:30] ---
    ...a little crazy.
[17:33] ---
    Hostage secured!
[17:44] ---
    Time for your medicine.
[17:58] ---
    Hell yes!
[18:05] ---
    The hostage-taker appears
    to have surrendered!
[18:07] ---
    I'm not the hostage-taker!
[18:10] ---
    Ask a detective named Doug
    Billingham! He'll tell you!
[18:14] ---
    He's gone!
[18:20] ---
    You're looking good, Jefferson.
[18:23] ---
    Thanks to you.
[18:24] ---
    My family almost ended up homeless.
[18:27] ---
    No, I didn't do anything...
[18:29] ---
    It's thanks to you.
[18:35] ---
    You finally went and did it, Kirill.
[18:38] ---
    No, but that was...
[18:39] ---
    Precinct 6's reputation is in tatters!
[18:43] ---
    I'll admit that it took courage,
[18:46] ---
    but you still put the lives of a
    hostage and an officer in danger!
[18:51] ---
    I'm sorry to say this, but there's
    no place for you here anymore.
[18:55] ---
    The brass has a new home for you: here.
[19:00] Gu
    On the org chart, we're part of the police,
[19:02] Gi
    Hey, there.
[19:04] Gi
    How you doing, Travis?
[19:04] Gu
    but we answer to the Lisvalletta military.
[19:07] Gi
    New kid?
[19:08] Gu
    This gives us a degree of freedom.
[19:13] Gu
    This is...
[19:15] Gu
    ...your office.
[19:29] Gi
    Move.
[19:30] Gu
    That's Pink. She works for me.
[19:33] Gu
    There's also people with names
    like "Boxer" and "Robot."
[19:36] Gu
    By the way, people call me "Boss."
[19:40] Gu
    I hope you will, too.
[19:41] Gu
    Um... why me?
[19:45] Gu
    The man we were going to bring
    in for the post turned us down.
[19:49] Gu
    Jefferson. You know him, right?
[19:52] Gu
    Of course, you've got the
    right to refuse, as well.
[19:55] Gu
    But, part of the reason we're offering you
    this job is his strong recommendation.
[19:59] Gu
    You?
[20:00] Gu
    Yo.
[20:01] Gu
    We work in pairs, most of the time.
[20:05] Gu
    We call it the Double Decker system.
[20:07] Gu
    D-Double Decker?
[20:10] Gu
    He's "Veteran," your new partner. AKA...
[20:13] Gu
    ...Doug Billingham.
[20:15] Gu
    Welcome to the SEVEN-O Special
    Crime Investigation Unit.
[20:19] Gu
    This is a goodbye present from Jefferson.
[20:23] Gu
    He says it's a good-luck charm,
[20:25] Gu
    "Rookie"...
[20:30] Gu
    Now, Kirill is a step or
    two closer to his dream!
[20:35] Gu
    His new life as "Rookie,"
[20:37] Gu
    a detective for the SEVEN-O Special Crime
    Investigation Unit, was about to begin!
[22:18] Gu
    My name is Kay Rochefort,
[22:19] Gu
    I'm transferring to the Special Crime
    Investigation Unit as of today!
[22:22] Gu
    She'll be working with Pink.
[22:25] Gu
    Her nickname will be "Rookie!"
[22:27] Gu
    Dismissed.
[22:30] Background
    Try not to slow me down too much, okay?
[22:32] Background
    Yes, I'll do my best.
[22:33] Gu
    What about me? I'm a rookie, too, right?
[22:36] Gu
    True. But you've been here longer than she
    has, even if it's only for a single day.
[22:43] Gu
    So your new nickname is "Perm."
[22:46] Gu
    I don't have a perm, though.
[22:49] Gu
    I know. That's why I put in a
    reservation for you to get one.
[22:52] Gu
    Wait, you're kidding, right? I can't
    get a perm with hair like this!
[22:56] Gu
    Okay, but your other options
    are "Okappa" and "Dead guy."
[23:01] Gu
    Why are those my only options?
    There has to be others, right?
[23:04] Gu
    You think so, do you?
    Perm's a much better choice, isn't it?
[23:08] Gu
    Right?
[23:11] Gu
    Okappa.
[23:11] Gu
    What? Come on, Perm is way better!
[23:15] Gu
    "Okappa" is practically an insult!
[23:16] Gu
    Okappa.
