[00:10] Kohaku
    I've seen it now.
[00:11] Kohaku
    With my superior eyesight...
    I've seen what the Medusa truly is.
[00:16] Kohaku
    Senku, you were right.
[00:19] Kohaku
    It isn't any kind of curse or
    demonic device devoid of rules.
[00:24] Kohaku
    The petrification weapon, the Medusa...
[00:28] Kohaku
    is science.
[00:35] Kohaku
    It's up to you now, Amaryllis.
[00:36] Kohaku
    Tell Senku and the others.
[00:39] Kohaku
    Tell them all the secrets that
    the infiltration team has found.
[00:44] (Flashback) Senku
    So long as we're fighting
    with science, we're ahead.
[00:49] Kohaku
    All that's left now is to trust
    science and the others, and wait.
[00:54] Ginro
    Yeah.
[00:56] Ginro
    Everything's gonna be fine.

[03:36] Chrome
    So that's what it's like!
[03:38] Gen
    Same reaction as Kaseki-chan.
[03:42] Kaseki
    Birds of a feather!
[03:44] Kaseki
    Chrome and I are the builder duo.

[04:26] Ryusui
    Of course you would say that,

    We've got you covered.

    Everyone...
[04:53] Amaryllis
    It's Kohaku-chan and...
[04:55] Amaryllis
    Kohaku-chan and Ginro!
[05:36] Suika
    So Soyuz was part of the Master's family?
[05:45] Ryusui
    Though it's only by Ginro's
    estimation that you look alike.
[05:49] Senku
    Yeah, there's no point in
    speculating about that now.
[05:54] Senku
    What I want to know is the enemy's
    capabilities and internal affairs.
[06:01] Senku
    We'll use our intellect to make the most
    of the little bits of information we have.
[06:06] Ryusui
    Leave that to me!
[06:07] Chrome
    I got this!
[06:09] Ukyo
    Good. Let's start by organizing our information.
[06:12] Gen
    Man, the Kingdom of Science
    is finally back together.
[06:16] Suika
    This is awesome!
[06:18] Suika
    Now that I look at it, it's that
    team Kohaku was talking about...
[06:22] Suika
    The five cleverest people in the kingdom.
[06:26] Taiju
    It's a meeting of the
    Kingdom of Science brass!
[06:30] Senku
    Good job, Amaryllis.
[06:32] Senku
    You and the spy team put in some nice work.
[06:35] Senku
    You've leaked a top secret to us.
[06:39] Senku
    The enemy's only got one
    petrification weapon.
[06:47] Ryusui
    I see. That's critical information.
[06:50] Gen
    Indeed.
[06:52] Gen
    Put yourself in Ibara-chan's shoes.
[06:55] Ukyo
    Well, it's not for certain,
    but we do need a working hypothesis.
[06:58] Chrome
    Hang on, what's this
    "oh, yeah, I totally get it" vibe?
[07:04] Chrome
    I don't get it!
[07:06] Amaryllis
    How can you know from
    what I just told you?
[07:09] Taiju
    Senku says so, so it must be true.
[07:12] Yuzuriha
    That's an optimistic resignation.
[07:14] Ryusui
    No, you lot need to hear this, too.
[07:18] Ryusui
    This is a painstaking puzzle made up
    of bits of unrelated information.
[07:22] Ryusui
    You saw how fast Soyuz and Yuzuriha were
[07:26] Ryusui
    at putting it together
    when they worked together.
[07:28] Ryusui
    We may, for example,
[07:31] Ryusui
    need Chrome's power of intuition.
[07:35] Chrome
    You stuck-up prick.
[07:38] Chrome
    All right! I'll do it.
[07:43] Senku
    First, the Master doesn't
    have a petrification weapon.
[07:46] Chrome
    Well, yeah, he's petrified.
[07:49] Chrome
    Doesn't Ibara have it, though?
    He runs the show.
[07:52] Amaryllis
    Yeah.
[07:53] Amaryllis
    Ibara is very cautious.
[07:55] Amaryllis
    He must have one.
[07:57] Gen
    That's where the trick is.
[07:59] Gen
    Ibara-chan's the type who has insurance
    policy upon insurance policy.
[08:03] Gen
    If there's another petrification
    weapon, he'd be the one to have it.
[08:07] Gen
    He was in a hurry to petrify the intruders.
[08:11] Gen
    Why didn't he have his own ready to go?
[08:16] Amaryllis
    You're right.
[08:18] Amaryllis
    I'm amazed you picked that
    up from such a little hint.
[08:21] Ryusui
    In other words, there's only
    one petrification weapon.
[08:25] Taiju
    That was complicated, but I
    understand the conclusion!
[08:28] Senku
    The thrower's at risk of being petrified, too.
[08:31] Senku
    Ibara-sama, being as cautious as
    he is, lets Kirisame do it instead.
[08:35] Chrome
    Wh-What a nasty old man!
[08:39] Ukyo
    There's one important
    thing I want to confirm.
[08:43] Ukyo
    Amaryllis.
[08:45] Ukyo
    About the third dimension.
[08:47] Ukyo
    You said the petrification weapon Kirisame
    threw created a blast from above, right?
[08:53] Amaryllis
    That's right.
[08:55] Gen
    I see...
[08:57] Gen
    If Kirisame-chan had to avoid
    the Master when she threw it...
[09:03] Senku
    That's a stupidly important
    piece of information, too.
[09:08] Senku
    Kirisame doesn't know the Master is a statue.
[09:14] Moz
    You're right, but...
[09:16] Moz
    How did you find out?
[09:18] Moz
    I'm impressed.
[09:19] Amaryllis
    Moz!
[09:20] Ukyo
    I didn't notice him even with my hearing!
[09:27] Yuzuriha
    Taiju-kun!
[09:33] Moz
    You've got some endurance.
[09:37] Moz
    But that's only going to buy you some time.
[09:42] Moz
    What are you going to do now?
[09:46] Senku
    Yeah, buying some time.
[09:48] Senku
    That's what we need the most.
[09:50] Senku
    Get your head in full gear with
    the few seconds Taiju gave you!
[09:54] Ryusui
    I know because I'm hungry for people's power.
[09:58] Ryusui
    Going all-in against him won't change a thing.
[10:02] Gen
    This is bad.
[10:04] Gen
    We're pretty screwed.
[10:05] Gen
    Is there really a way out of this?
[10:07] Ukyo
    I need to get at least one of us out alive.
[10:11] Amaryllis
    I'm sorry...
[10:13] Amaryllis
    I must have been followed.
[10:19] Chrome
    I've always been a scavenger,
    ever since I was a kid.
[10:22] Chrome
    I know better than anyone
[10:24] Chrome
    how much of a pain in the ass it
    is to look for stuff in the dark.
[10:30] Chrome
    He followed Amaryllis after she put
    herself through so much to escape...
[10:34] Chrome
    And he didn't kill her?
[10:37] Chrome
    That bastard Moz...
[10:39] Chrome
    He must have known Amaryllis's
    group were intruders.
[10:43] Gen
    Wait, why are you stating the
    obvious now, Chrome-chan?
[10:47] Gen
    He obviously knew.
[10:48] Gen
    Kohaku-chan was already outed,
    so everyone with her had to be...
[10:54] Ukyo
    That's it! That means...
[10:56] Ryusui
    He knew Ginro was an intruder, too!
[10:59] Senku
    That's some huge information
    to keep from Ibara.
[11:05] Senku
    Ibara and an intruder were facing off
    one-on-one, and Moz just sat there watching.
[11:13] Senku
    Which means Moz doesn't mind if Ibara dies.
[11:17] Senku
    Or he even plans to kill him.
[11:22] Senku
    All the puzzle pieces are coming
    together in this knowledge battle.
[11:28] Senku
    I see the whole state of
    the Petrification Kingdom.
[11:31] Gen
    We have a shot at tearing them down, then.
[11:34] Gen
    Who's...
[11:42] Gen
    Of course.
[11:47] Gen
    Heya...
[11:50] Gen
    Just give us...
[11:52] Gen
    Just give us a second, Moz-chan.
[11:56] Gen
    I've got a good offer for you.
[11:59] Gen
    How about you and we,
    the Kingdom of Science, join forces?
[12:05] Gen
    Wouldn't that be exhilarating?
[12:28] Gen
    What do you think of our bird of witchcraft?
[12:32] Gen
    We can fly this thing however we want.
[12:35] Gen
    We can grab Kirisame-chan's petrification
    weapon in the air, no problem!
[12:41] Senku
    "However we want" is a
    bit of an overstatement.
[12:43] Senku
    It's not even stable yet.
    It's just an electric bamboo copter.
[12:47] Gen
    Don't worry about it, Senku-chan.
[12:50] Gen
    You pretend your weak card is
    actually your ace of spades.
[12:53] Gen
    That's the first move in any
    negotiation, in any deal making.
[12:58] Ukyo
    If we fought Moz, we'd all die.
[13:03] Ryusui
    Think about it another way!
[13:05] Ryusui
    This is an opportunity to negotiate with
    the strongest man and get him on our side!
[13:10] Senku
    Everything's riding on your flimsy word.
[13:13] Chrome
    Shit! Please, Gen!
[13:17] Gen
    If you and I, sorcerers, team up,
[13:20] Gen
    we could end up taking over this island
    and the inner palace for ourselves!
[13:21] Suika
    When did Gen get over there?!
[13:25] Gen
    Don't you think?

[13:29] Gen
    Mentalist Gen's manipulation techniques!
[13:33] Gen
    This one's pretty famous.
[13:36] Gen
    People feel more solidarity with you if
    you're next to them, not opposite them.
[13:41] Gen
    That's why they tell you to take
    a counter seat instead of a table.
[13:46] Senku
    So the first move of having
    him look up at the drone
[13:49] Senku
    segues naturally into his next
    move of standing next to him.
[13:54] Senku
    Not bad, mentalist.
[13:57] Gen
    I mean, you're so strong, Moz-chan.
[14:02] Gen
    If Ibara-chan and all those
    other soldiers are a hundred,
[14:06] Gen
    you're probably a hundred fifty.
[14:11] Amaryllis
    No, he's way more than that!
[14:16] Moz
    Maybe a little more than that.

[14:21] Gen
    Mentalist Gen's manipulation techniques!
[14:24] Gen
    Number two!
[14:26] Gen
    Try saying something that's
    a little bit off-the-mark.
[14:30] Gen
    The urge to correct you will
    be so strong that they might
[14:34] Gen
    sign on to something they never intended to.
[14:38] Ryusui
    In reality, they're probably worlds apart.
[14:42] Ryusui
    I want him!
[14:43] Gen
    Wow!
[14:44] Gen
    If you're really that strong, you could
    take Ibara-chan out easy, right?
[14:52] Gen
    Although I kinda get the sense
    that he's seeing right through me.
[14:59] Moz
    Kill all of you, or kill Ibara...
[15:06] Moz
    What to do?
[15:10] Moz
    Well, if I'm going to kill all of you,
    there's no harm in telling you.
[15:18] Moz
    I'm sure you've figured out by now that
    the one who petrified the Master...
[15:25] Moz
    was Ibara.
[15:28] Moz
    He's already done plenty of work.
[15:30] Moz
    Good job, I suppose.
[15:31] Moz
    It's about time that old fogy croaks, right?
[15:34] Moz
    The girls would probably appreciate it
    if I made it my own inner palace, too.
[15:41] Senku
    Why not go ahead and kill him, then?
[15:45] Moz
    I would have done it long ago if
    not for the petrification beam.
[15:49] Moz
    Kirisame-chan, who's handling the
    petrification weapon, is pretty strong.
[15:54] Moz
    I'd win in a normal fight, but one shot from
    her unavoidable beam, and I'm done for.
[16:01] Ukyo
    In other words, if you attack Minister Ibara,
[16:05] Ukyo
    Kirisame, who doesn't know what's going on,
    would use her petrification beam on you.
[16:09] Ukyo
    But if you exposed him,
    you'd lose access to the inner palace.
[16:16] Gen
    You've got yourselves
    in a three-way deadlock.
[16:20] Ryusui
    Ibara's got a good thing going for himself.
[16:23] Ryusui
    He's not your regular old fart.
[16:25] Taiju
    I-I'm starting to have a hard time keeping up.
[16:30] Senku
    To put it simply enough for
    a meathead to understand...
[16:34] Senku
    Moz, you want the petrification beam gone.
[16:38] Senku
    We want the petrification beam ourselves.
[16:41] Senku
    Our interests are ten
    billion percent aligned.
[16:48] Gen
    Bingo!
[16:49] Gen
    It's the petrification weapon we want!
[16:51] Gen
    A negotiation's gotta be
    on even footing, right?
[16:54] Gen
    Why don't you take over the island and
    have the inner palace for yourself?
[16:58] Gen
    We'll help with our sorcery,
    but only on one condition.
[17:03] Gen
    You have to give us the petrification
    weapon. No exceptions.
[17:07] Gen
    That's one thing that has
    to be absolute, Moz-chan!
[17:11] Amaryllis
    The way he says it...
[17:13] Ukyo
    He's so skeevy.
[17:14] Chrome
    I have a feeling this is going
    to make him more stubborn.
[17:18] Moz
    Even footing?
[17:22] Moz
    I don't need to uphold any conditions, do I?
[17:25] Moz
    I've got the upper hand in combat.
[17:29] Moz
    You'll use your sorcery for my sake.
[17:32] Moz
    And you'll give me the petrification weapon.
[17:38] Gen
    That's awful, though!
[17:39] Gen
    Hang on a minute, Moz-chan! Even footing!
[17:41] All
    I knew it!
[17:45] Moz
    I'll keep your hideout a secret.

    It's called psychological reactance.
[18:09] Gen
    When you feel like you're
    being forced to do things,
[18:12] Gen
    your need to maintain control
    causes you to reject things.

[18:19] Ukyo
    Gen's doing this on purpose!
[18:21] Ukyo
    Think about it.
[18:22] Ukyo
    The conversation's shifted.
[18:24] Senku
    You're right.
[18:27] Senku
    The conversation was originally whether
    he was going to kill us all or not.
[18:33] Senku
    Psychological reactance has him refusing
    to do as this sleazy man wants.
[18:38] Senku
    We're suddenly talking
    about working together.
[18:44] Gen
    The way to win a deal isn't to make
    the other person feel defeated.
[18:48] Gen
    It's to show servitude, setting out a
    false red carpet for them and stuff.
[18:53] Gen
    That's what really matters.

    Good going, mentalist!
[19:41] Gen
    Thank you, thank you.
[19:43] Ryusui
    But that means we've got the ultimate power!
