[00:04] Irwin
    Excuse me for dropping in
    when you're having so much fun, but...
[00:11] Irwin
    Is the old man
    Dr. Taklamakan Strangelove here?
[00:15] Irwin
    If he doesn't come out,
    I'm just going to have to...
[00:18] Decoy love
    Hold it. It is I. I am Dr. Love.
[00:25] Irwin
    Just how many body doubles do you
     think I've caught up until now?
[00:32] Irwin
    I can tell if you're the real one
    or not with my SPH.
SIGN    Something to Believe in: Part 1
[02:11] Belalugo
    How long are you going to play dumb?
[02:13] Misuzu
    I don't know.
[02:15] Misuzu
    I have no idea what you're talking about.
[02:17] Belalugo
    Don't be ridiculous!
[02:19] Belalugo
    This is footage taken right before
    your pursuit of Dragline, who escaped.
[02:24] Belalugo
    We have footage of you cutting through
    the grid at the detention center,
[02:28] Belalugo
    and letting him escape
    captured with a special camera.
[02:30] Belalugo
    You can't talk your way out of this.
[02:33] Belalugo
    What are you plotting?
[02:34] Misuzu
    I...
[02:37] Misuzu
    I don't know... I...
[02:41] Belalugo
    We're not going to fall for that!
[02:43] Subordinate 1
    She really has lost consciousness.
[02:46] Belalugo
    What are the results of the lie-detector SPH?
[02:49] Subordinate 1
    We were unable to detect anything.
[02:51] Belalugo
    She is a spy!
[02:53] Belalugo
    We'll make her confess, no matter what.
[02:57] Subordinate 2
    Next, head to Interrogation Room 6.
[03:00] McClane
    We're not even done fixing up Jeanrenoi-R
    from the DeMille attack yet.
[03:04] Mcclane
    This is the last thing we need.
[03:05] Chuta
    It can't be helped. Sonokata's a suspect.
[03:10] McClane
    She's a suspect but the footage
    of her letting a murderer escape
[03:12] McClane
    was captured with
    a special camera, right?
[03:15] McClane
    Of course she's a spy.
[03:16] Chips
    Misuzu hasn't confessed, chu.
[03:18] McClane
    Well it's still true that there's footage of it.
[03:21] McClane
    Misuzu might have been
    looking into all of us, too.
[03:23] Chips
    That's not true, chu!
[03:25] Chips
    I've been with Misuzu ever since
    she joined the bureau, so I know, chu!
[03:28] McClane
    Both the way you think
    and your SPH reeks of a kid.
[03:31] Chips
    And you reek just as bad as your afro!
[03:35] Tonto
    And that's enough.
[03:38] Dolugh
    Do you think that Misuzu is a spy, Chuta?
[03:41] Chuta
    Of course not.
[03:42] Dolugh
    Even though she was caught on camera?
[03:46] Chuta
    Even then, I trust Sonokata. Um... for the
     same reason as Assistant Inspector Chips.
[03:53] Dolugh
    But unlike Chips, you haven't
    known Misuzu for very long.
[03:56] Chuta
    Wha— W-Well, yeah, but...
    you seem rather persistent about this.
[04:01] Chuta
    Do you want to make Sonokata the culprit?
[04:03] Dolugh
    No! I just want to know
    why you want to trust Sonokata,
[04:07] Dolugh
    even when it means averting
    your eyes from the truth.
[04:09] Chuta
    I'm not averting my eyes from the truth...
[04:11] Subordinate 3
    Next. Come into the interrogation room.
[04:14] Chuta
    Yes, sir.
[04:15] Subordinate 1
    In regards to the fever that the suspect
    has developed for the past two hours,
[04:18] Subordinate 1
    the cause of it is still unknown.
[04:20] Belalugo
    Fix it! Straighten her up!
[04:35] Subordinate 4
    What do you want? Investigator Belalugo is busy.
[04:39] Laine
    Then I'll just wait right here.
[04:42] Subordinate 4
    If words aren't enough...
[04:47] Subordinate 4
    Ow!
[04:49] Subordinate 4
    Wh-Why, you...
[04:55] Laine
    I guess I don't have a choice.
[05:00] Laine
    Jeez, you're hard...
[05:05] Belalugo
    Laine Brick!
[05:06] Laine
    One of your subordinates tried to get rid of me
    with violence, so I used self-defense.
[05:14] Laine
    If you doubt me, check the special
    camera footage that you like so much.
[05:19] Belalugo
    What do you want?
[05:20] Laine
    As the chief of this bureau, I request an
    interview with Officer Misuzu Sonokata.
[05:25] Belalugo
    Request denied! I have
    no obligation to let you see her.
[05:30] Laine
    Misuzu should have a
    high fever right about now.
[05:34] Laine
    And if a suspect becomes
     ill during interrogation,
[05:37] Laine
    they should be able to accept treatment
    from their personal physician.
[05:40] Belalugo
    Personal physician?
[05:42] Belalugo
    That's only reserved for special cases
    for those ill who are above Level 50.
[05:48] Laine
    Yes... and she falls in that case.
[05:52] Laine
    If I told you that she's a test subject of the
     Taklamakan Project, you should understand.
[05:56] Belalugo
    What?
[06:00] Laine
    You'll allow me to send her personal physician
    and an assistant to treat her, won't you?
[06:05] Belalugo
    Very well.
[06:06] Belalugo
    However, I won't be going any easier
    on the interrogation!
[06:12] Tonto
    Chief!
[06:14] Tonto
    There's an emergency message
    from Superintendent Kieshi.
[06:17] Laine
    All right. I'll be right there.
[06:21] Dahli
    So that's the only conversation that you had
    with Officer Sonokata at the detention center?
[06:26] Chuta
    Yes...
[06:28] Dahli
    And everything you said is the truth?
[06:31] Chuta
    Again with the truth thing.
[06:33] Chuta
    Jeez... everyone going on about truths.
[06:36] Dahli
    Officer Kokonose, was that the truth?
[06:36] Chuta
    Even Dolugh said I was bending
    the truth earlier...
[06:40] Dolugh
    Chuta, he's asking you a question.
[06:41] Chuta
    Oh... uh...
[06:43] Dahli
    Look into my eyes!
[06:46] Chuta
    Y-Yes, sir!
[06:49] Dahli
    Next.
[06:54] Dolugh
    Chuta, were you thinking
    about something earlier?
[06:57] Chuta
    This is all because you asked me why
     I trust Sonokata before I got interrogated.
[07:05] Chuta
    Ow.
[07:06] Veronica
    Ow!
[07:07] Veronica
    What do you think you're doing?
    You're going to crush my horn.
[07:10] Chuta
    Horn? Y-You're the one who bumped into me.
[07:14] Veronica
    I don't remember. I was out of it
    from just waking up.
[07:17] Chuta
    What? She's making it sound like my fault!
[07:20] Ninotchka
    Sorry. She's suffering from jetlag.
[07:27] Ninotchka
    Are you all right?
[07:29] Chuta
    I-I'm fine. Thanks...
[07:33] Chuta
    They look to be around my age...
[07:37] Isaac
    Chuta!
[07:38] Isaac
    Do you have a second?
[07:40] Chuta
    Yes.
[07:45] Chuta
    This is...
[07:49] Chuta
    I still don't believe that Sonokata
    let Dragline escape back then.
[07:58] Misuzu
    Hurry and run...
[07:59] Chuta
    Sonokata!
[08:00] Isaac
    This isn't good. Her memories
    are starting to get muddled.
[08:03] Isaac
    Hang in there, Misuzu.
[08:05] Chuta
    Wh-What's going on?
    What did they do to Sonokata?
[08:10] Isaac
    They didn't do anything to her.
[08:12] Isaac
    Her medicine lost its effect.
[08:13] Chuta
    Medicine?
[08:15] Isaac
    Do you remember me telling you
    that Misuzu was taking medicine
[08:18] Isaac
    to let her adapt to the environment?
[08:22] Dolugh
    It's the medicine she got from sick bay.
[08:25] Isaac
    Misuzu doesn't know it, but it's a drug to help
    the aftereffects from a top-secret project.
[08:32] Chuta
    Aftereffects?
[08:33] Isaac
    Yes.
[08:36] Isaac
    What I'm about to tell you is a secret
    that only the chief, Chips, and I know.
[08:42] Isaac
    Misuzu was forced to undergo
    a certain treatment in the past.
[08:47] Isaac
    But because of that,
    her body's balance was destroyed
[08:50] Isaac
    and she lost a half year's worth
    of her memories.
[08:53] Chuta
    What?
[08:54] Isaac
    That treatment implanted an SPH-producing
    organ within her from another individual,
[08:59] Isaac
    and her personality underwent a change.
[09:02] Isaac
    It's called the Taklamakan Project.
[09:06] Isaac
    But the project ended in failure,
[09:08] Isaac
    and most of those who
    underwent the procedure
[09:11] Isaac
    lost their lives, or their bodies
    ended up with some defect.
[09:14] Isaac
    And...
[09:15] Isaac
    Misuzu lost all of her memories
    regarding the treatment,
[09:18] Isaac
    and she became unable to survive
    without taking the medication.
[09:23] Chuta
    Why was Sonokata forced
    to undergo something like that?
[09:26] Isaac
    I don't have the answer to that.
    It's top secret.
[09:30] Chuta
    Why did you tell me this?
[09:32] Isaac
    Why else?
[09:34] Isaac
    It's because you're in a
    position to protect Misuzu.
[09:39] Chuta
    Protect Sonokata... Me?
[09:45] Isaac
    By the way, the chief knows
    that I was going to talk to you about this.
[09:49] Chuta
    The chief...
[09:52] Laine
    Investigations department 2nd Division,
    you have a mission.
[09:54] Laine
    Come to the chief's quarters.
[09:57] Laine
    I need you to bring this scientist, who is
    currently residing on Earth, to the bureau.
[10:02] Laine
    Dr. Love. He's one of the best
    scientists in the universe.
[10:06] Isaac
    He's an old acquaintance of mine.
    He's 500 years old and a weirdo.
[10:09] Chuta
    500 years old?!
[10:11] Laine
    Dr. Love hates interferences,
[10:14] Laine
    so we came this far without
    providing him with security.
[10:17] Laine
    But four out of five of his body doubles
    have been killed lately.
[10:20] Chips
    Ack!
[10:22] Laine
    Since it's become this dangerous,
[10:24] Laine
    we aren't able to leave this matter alone.
[10:26] Laine
    ēlDLIVE HQ has sent an order
    to provide protection.
[10:30] Chuta
    Um, but...
[10:31] Chips
    Right now, I'm worried about Misuzu, chu.
[10:34] Laine
    Are you worried, too, Chuta?
[10:37] Chuta
    Yes.
[10:38] Laine
    Don't let your personal feelings
    get in the way of your work!
[10:40] Chuta
    I-I'm sorry!
[10:42] Laine
    Well, I understand how you feel.
[10:44] Laine
    Ever since Misuzu was arrested,
[10:47] Laine
    I've eaten way too many dumplings.
[10:50] laine
    And this is completely coincidental...
[10:53] laine
    But this mission might end up
     being a way to save Misuzu.
[10:58] Isaac
    I see. Dr. Love's full name is...
[11:02] Isaac
    Taklamakan Strangelove...
[11:05] Isaac
    He's the one who came up with
    this Taklamakan Project.
[11:09] Chips
    What does that have to do
    with saving Misuzu?
[11:13] Laine
    The Doctor and I think that the actions
    that led to Misuzu being suspected of spying
[11:17] Laine
    are due to a side effect of the
     medicine that she's taking.
[11:21] Chuta
    What?
[11:21] Isaac
    It's unconfirmed, but a similar incident
     has been reported in the past.
[11:26] Isaac
    Those who have taken this medicine apparently
    have done things that they don't remember.
[11:32] Laine
    If we can get Dr. Love,
    who created the medicine,
[11:35] Laine
    to testify that Misuzu cutting through
    the grid was a side effect,
[11:38] Laine
    this whole thing will be deemed an accident,
    and she'll be declared innocent.
[11:41] Chips
    I see.
[11:42] Chuta
    I didn't understand all of that...
[11:44] Dolugh
    I understood.
[11:45] Chuta
    ...but if we bring Dr. Love back,
    Sonokata will be saved, right?
[11:49] Laine
    You'll go, won't you?
[11:50] Both
    Yoyosa!
[11:53] Laine
    You'll be working with the 5th Division
    on this mission.
[11:56] Laine
    I've given the details to the leader
    of the 5th Division.
[11:58] Chips
    We were transferred upside down.
[12:01] Chuta
    He did it again.
[12:02] Chuta
    Come on, Sheronimo!
[12:04] Chips
    But I'm in a good mood,
    so I'll let him off the hook, chu.
[12:06] Chips
    Because if we bring Dr. Love back,
    Misuzu will be declared innocent, chu!
[12:11] Chuta
    True. See, Dolugh? I was right, wasn't I?
[12:15] Chuta
    I told you that Sonokata wasn't a spy.
[12:17] Dolugh
    I never said she was.
[12:20] Chuta
    Huh?
[12:20] Dolugh
    I just wanted to know why you trusted Misuzu
    when you didn't have anything to back it up.
[12:25] Chuta
    Are you still talking about that?
[12:27] Chips
    I want to be included
    in this conversation, too!
[12:29] Chips
    I can't hear the Monitalien's voice, chu!
[12:34] Ninotchka
    Freeze!
[12:36] Veronica
    Likewise.
[12:36] Chuta
    Whoa, wh-what?
[12:38] Veronica
    Oh, it's you guys.
[12:40] Chuta
    Huh?
[12:41] Ninotchka
    Pardon our rudeness, Assistant Inspector Chips.
[12:45] Chips
    You guys!
[12:48] Ninotchka
    We've been waiting for you.
[12:50] Veronica
    We're from ēlDLIVE investigations
    department Division 5,
[12:52] Veronica
    and we'll be joining you on this mission.
SIGN    Veronica Borowczyk
[13:08] I
    Talk about calculating.
[13:10] R
    Still...
[13:12] I
    What's matter?
[13:13] R
    Misuzu's arrest and Dr. Love's guarding...
[13:16] R
    The timing feels too convenient.
[13:20] C
    Oh, you're the girl I ran into
    after the interrogation!
[13:23] V
    That was my bad.
[13:25] V
    There, I apologized! Now it's your turn!
[13:29] C
    What?!
[13:30] Ch
    Let me introduce you, chu.
    This is the 5th Division's—
[13:33] V
    Assistant Inspector Veronica Borowczyk,
    leader of the 5th Division.
[13:39] Ch
    And this is—
[13:40] V
    Officer Nina Mikhailovna Pavlova.
[13:43] N
    Call me Ninotchka.
[13:45] Ch
    There you have it, chu!
[13:46] C
    Oh, I'm...
[13:48] V
    Officer Chuta Kokonose, right?
[13:51] V
    The so-called super rookie who arrested
    a C-ranked criminal in his entrance exam.
[13:58] D
    You're famous, Chuta.
[14:00] N
    Wow, so cute!
[14:03] N
    Are you the Monitalien
    everyone's talking about?
[14:08] C
    Wh-What's wrong, Dolugh?
[14:10] D
    That's the first time
    a stranger has touched me!
[14:13] N
    U-Uh, I'm sorry.
[14:15] V
    Still, you know,
[14:17] V
    you seem to be every bit as
     boring a guy as the rumors say.
[14:22] C
    There are rumors?
[14:23] N
    What are you saying?!
[14:25] V
    Just what's on my mind.
[14:26] N
    She's a nice person deep down.
[14:30] N
    She just speaks her mind a little too freely.
[14:33] N
    I don't think of you as boring.
[14:36] V
    Right. You're into frail boys like him.
[14:39] N
    V-Veronica!
[14:40] C
    Frail...?
[14:41] V
    Seriously, though,
    what has Misuzu gone and done?
[14:44] V
    It's so dumb, it's not even funny.
[14:46] N
    Oh, this is her unique way
    of showing her love.
[14:50] N
    The three of us entered ēlDLIVE
    at the same time,
[14:54] N
    and we're close enough to
    really let one another have it.
[14:57] V
    If Misuzu and I really let each other have it,
    we'd be fighting to the death.
[15:00] C
    Contemporaries, huh?
[15:02] V
    All right. Let's get to work.
[15:04] V
    If we work together, I'll be able to tell
    at once if you really are a super rookie.
[15:12] V
    Okay, here we go!
[15:13] All
    Yeah!
[15:17] V
    We're supposed to make contact
    with Dr. Love in that restaurant,
[15:21] V
    but keep your guards up, because
    there might be people out for him.
[15:25] V
    Go inside and check things out,
    Officer Kokonose.
[15:29] C
    Yoyosa!
[15:41] V
    You're being too conspicuous!
[15:43] V
    Can't you use your Monitalien
    to peek inside or something?!
[15:46] D
    There's an idea.
[15:48] V
    Though most people use one of these.
[15:55] V
    Okay, all clear.
[15:56] V
    We are a go.
[15:57] C
    You could've just done this yourself
    from the start, you demon!
[16:01] N
    Are you all right?
[16:03] N
    You can use my handkerchief, if you like.
[16:06] C
    Thanks, but I have my own.
[16:10] N
    Wow, it's nice and ironed.
[16:13] N
    Must've been your mother, right?
[16:15] C
    Nah, it was me.
[16:17] N
    That's amazing!
[16:20] C
    By contrast, she's an angel!
[16:23] TV
    Next up, we have a story from overseas.
[16:26] TV
    An Italian man...
[16:27] V
    Quit gawking.
[16:29] V
    Dr. Love isn't here.
[16:32] V
    Did you really think he'd be casually
    sipping a cuppa when his life is in danger?
[16:36] V
    He'd obviously send someone.
[16:37] G
    Welcome.
[16:41] G
    Table for three?
[16:44] V
    Sorry! My grandpa forgot his hat here!
[16:48] G
    Ah, I see.
[16:51] G
    You're one of those customers.
[16:53] C
    Grandpa?
[16:55] D
    I get it. That was a secret code, Chuta.
[16:57] D
    Like, "What's the magic word?"
[17:02] G
    If only you'd come sooner,
    things wouldn't have come to this.
[17:10] N
    Is he dead?
[17:12] V
    What's the meaning of this?
[17:13] G
    I welcome you, ēlDLIVE.
[17:16] G
    If you're here, that means
    the real Dr. Love should be nearby.
[17:22] V
    So you're the one who killed his body doubles!
[17:26] N
    Assistant Officer Chips,
    contact the Jeanrenoi-R!
[17:29] Ch
    You got it, chu.
[17:30] G
    Slow down.
[17:31] G
    SPH comms won't work in here.
[17:35] G
    You can't talk to your friends.
[17:39] G
    Now, it's my turn to ask the questions.
[17:43] G
    You know where Dr. Love is, don't you?
[17:47] D
    This is bad, Chuta! We're surrounded!
[17:50] V
    Very well.
[17:51] V
    If it's a fight you want,
    a fight you will get!

    That's ēlDLIVE for you.

[18:30] G
    What was I doing?
[18:32] G
    Where am I?
[18:33] G
    I thought I was...
[18:34] V
    Were these people...
[18:36] N
    ...hypnotized?
[18:38] G
    Also...
[18:42] G
    If that detonates, this whole
    restaurant will be blown to pieces.
[18:50] G
    Now, where is Dr. Love?
[18:54] V
    We don't know.
[18:56] G
    If you don't answer me honestly,
    everyone here goes boom.
[19:00] N
    Veronica.
[19:03] V
    He's underground, beneath this restaurant.
[19:04] V
    That's all I know!
[19:06] G
    I see.
[19:07] G
    Down here, huh?
[19:09] G
    Then I guess I'd better blow up
    this place, after all.
[19:14] G
    Adiós, ladies and gentlemen.
[19:19] Ch
    Hurry up and stop the bomb!
[19:21] C
    But how?
[19:22] D
    Ice, Chuta!
[19:24] D
    I saw a bomb squad freeze one
    on TV while you were asleep!
[19:28] C
    Who said you could do that?
[19:30] D
    There's no time, Chuta.
[19:32] C
    Okay, the same move as
    that time we froze the gum off?
[19:36] D
    Sympathy!
[19:38] C
    Freezing Bomb Stop!
[19:44] V
    Okay, that delayed the explosion a little!
[19:47] N
    Get behind me, everyone!
[19:50] V
    Ninotchka.
[19:51] N
    I know.
[20:07] Ch
    Everyone's okay, chu.
[20:09] V
    All of you, hurry up and head somewhere safe!
[20:15] C
    Was that your SPH just now?
[20:19] N
    Y-Yes.
[20:20] C
    It was really, uh, incredible!
[20:24] N
    U-Um...
[20:27] N
    Did you see?
[20:28] C
    N-No, um...
[20:33] V
    Hey, Officer Kokonose!
[20:35] V
    This is all your fault!
[20:38] V
    If you'd frozen the bomb right at the start,
[20:40] V
    he wouldn't have found out
    where Dr. Love was,
[20:42] V
    and this place wouldn't have been blown up!
[20:45] V
    My conclusion: you're no super rookie.
[20:50] V
    You're dead weight.
[20:51] C
    Dead weight...?
[20:53] D
    That hurts me, too.
[20:54] N
    That's going too far, Veronica.
[20:56] V
    He won't get it unless I spell it out.
[20:59] C
    Dead weight...
[21:00] D
    Oh no! Chuta's confidence
    is vanishing into the ether!
[21:04] G
    So you're all set to escape, huh?
[21:09] G
    It's him!
[21:10] G
    I finally get to meet the real deal!
[21:16] N
    No!
[21:28] N
    How awful!
[21:31] G
    How noisy.
[21:33] V
    Someone's there!
[21:47] G
    Do you need this geezer for something?
[21:50] G
    You're too late, though.
[23:25] C
    Oh, Assistant Inspector Veronica.
[23:27] V
    What do I do? I ruined my bed again.
[23:29] C
    Wait, you wet your bed?
[23:30] V
    As if!
[23:32] V
    My horn tore a hole in it
    when I turned over in my sleep!
[23:34] D
    Next time on ēlDLIVE,
[23:36] D
    "Something to Believe in: Part 2."
SIGN    Next Time
    Something to Believe in: Part 2
[23:38] C
    Talk about misleading!
