[00:42] ---
    You could have waited inside.
[00:45] ---
    I want to see this myself.
[00:47] ---
    It's the end of our journey.
[00:51] ---
    We're finally here, huh?
[00:54] ---
    Right.
[00:57] ---
    I'm positive we'll find out what you are.
[01:05] ---
    You're not the only one who's anxious.
[01:08] ---
    Re-l...
[01:18] ---
    Take the helm!
[01:43] ---
    We're in Mosk.
[03:50] ---
    It's empty.
[03:51] ---
    This goes beyond anything I've ever seen.
[03:57] ---
    Mosk was destroyed during
    the invasion by Romdo.
[04:02] ---
    I wonder if Vincent
    would hold a grudge if he knew.
[04:05] ---
    The light...
[04:07] ---
    maybe it was the light
    that burned Mosk to the ground...
[04:11] ---
    in order to wipe out my past.
[04:14] ---
    The place wasn't destroyed yesterday.
[04:20] ---
    That's right.
[04:22] ---
    Did my grandfather send the light as well?
[04:25] ---
    Why now?
[04:28] ---
    Is he trying to capture another Proxy?
[04:32] ---
    What's happening in Romdo?
[04:35] ---
    Vince.
[04:35] ---
    Cheer up!
[04:38] ---
    Yeah.
[04:39] ---
    We only just got here.
[04:43] ---
    You're right.
[04:47] ---
    Sign of the End
[04:52] ---
    Citizen Number 039666. Raul Creed.
[04:58] ---
    Present.
[05:00] ---
    How could a model fellow citizen
    have created such a mess?
[05:05] ---
    You completely overestimated
    your abilities.
[05:08] ---
    To have taken such
    liberties with the system.
[05:11] ---
    If only you hadn't made this mistake.
[05:14] ---
    Mistake?
[05:16] ---
    It's the same for you, isn't it?
[05:21] ---
    Are you unable to face
    up to your own crime as well?
[05:24] ---
    Shifting the blame.
[05:26] ---
    A typical defensive response.
[05:29] ---
    If it weren't a mistake,
[05:31] ---
    then there would be no need to
    atone for accepting the immigrants.
[05:35] ---
    It is a fellow citizen's duty to
    reach out to the weak.
[05:39] ---
    That lack of resolve is
    what led us to this predicament.
[05:43] ---
    This entire tragedy began with the
    admittance of that man, Vincent Law.
[05:49] ---
    Am I wrong?
[05:56] ---
    Are you all right?
[05:58] ---
    Yes...
[05:59] ---
    This looks like it was the city's center.
[06:02] ---
    I don't know.
[06:04] ---
    Were you too lowly a citizen to
    even know where the city's center was?
[06:07] ---
    I don't know.
[06:11] ---
    That's a joke.
[06:13] ---
    I know.
[06:15] ---
    Vince?
[06:16] ---
    Something you ate or someone you met,
[06:19] ---
    anything you remember might help.
[06:21] ---
    Nothing's coming to me. Nothing.
[06:24] ---
    Take your time.
[06:26] ---
    There's no need to blame your present self.
[06:30] ---
    Come on. Let's go.
[06:32] ---
    Could you leave me alone for a little bit?
[06:37] ---
    Vincent?
[06:40] ---
    If you're not feeling well,
    go back to the ship.
[06:44] ---
    If I find any clues I'll come back too.
[06:47] ---
    Right.
[06:51] ---
    Using Rapture was not a crime.
[06:54] ---
    Not only did you invent
    the erroneous name "Rapture"
[06:58] ---
    for a simple thermonuclear bomb,
    you sealed it away for future use.
[07:03] ---
    Those are the true crimes worthy
    of condemnation.
[07:05] ---
    It is the repeating of past
    mistakes which is your crime.
[07:10] ---
    Your former selves sought
    God and were betrayed.
[07:14] ---
    Not me.
[07:15] ---
    I don't seek some God who won't save us.
[07:18] ---
    I simply destroy.
[07:20] ---
    You seek further destruction?
[07:22] ---
    How will bringing further death and
    confusion to this world change anything?
[07:27] ---
    There is a victor,
    therefore there must also be a loser.
[07:31] ---
    Even if our downfall is inevitable,
[07:33] ---
    Romdo will not perish as long as we resist.
[07:37] ---
    Such idiocy.
[07:38] ---
    There is no way to escape this path.
[07:41] ---
    Seeing the road to ruin as
    inexorable is tantamount to death?
[07:46] ---
    To wait and see is to commit slow suicide.
[07:49] ---
    It's easy to drown in
    the soothing waters of despair...
[07:53] ---
    however, we have to change!
[07:56] ---
    We must be able to
    do without God from now on!
[08:00] ---
    I do not know despair.
[08:10] ---
    Resist, therefore Romdo is. Is that it?
[08:21] ---
    In that case, go ahead. Try it your way.
[08:25] ---
    You're sparing me, aren't you?
[08:28] ---
    So I can suffer with you.
[08:34] ---
    Let's go.
[08:35] ---
    Yes, sir, Chief.
[08:42] ---
    Raul...
[08:44] ---
    you will soon know...
[08:46] ---
    Our even deeper...
[08:48] ---
    Our even sadder...
[08:51] ---
    Our true despair.
[08:56] ---
    The city's been wiped out...
[08:59] ---
    just like my memory.
[09:01] ---
    It's the place where I was born...
[09:04] ---
    where I became who I am.
[09:06] ---
    And yet, even so,
    I can't remember anything.
[09:12] ---
    I wonder if I'd be able
    to remember if I turned into him.
[09:25] ---
    Don't fall.
[09:27] ---
    I'm fine!
[09:30] ---
    Hey, Vince!
[09:32] ---
    Hey!
[09:35] ---
    Vince!
[09:37] ---
    I can't believe you're
    able to see him from this far.
[09:39] ---
    Hey!
[09:41] ---
    Let's leave him alone.
[09:43] ---
    OK.
[09:48] ---
    What can you see up there?
[09:51] ---
    It must be the egg.
[09:53] ---
    The egg?
[09:54] ---
    Yeah.
[09:55] ---
    And inside there's supposed
    to be lots of precious round things...
[09:59] ---
    like children, or food, or dreams.
[10:03] ---
    That's from the picture book, right?
[10:05] ---
    Uh-huh. This is the first
    time I've seen it.
[10:09] ---
    It was important enough to have
    been protected with all these shields.
[10:13] ---
    We called it the Monad Proxy.
[10:18] ---
    Monad?
[10:20] ---
    It was something we
    plundered from the Mosk Dome.
[10:26] ---
    Perhaps the Monad Proxy
    was located inside there.
[10:38] ---
    Do I not have memories?
[10:41] ---
    If not, can I even say I'm me?
[10:50] ---
    There's something here.
[10:53] ---
    Don't worry.
[10:55] ---
    This place is scary.
[10:57] ---
    For some reason, the place
    brings back memories for me.
[11:01] ---
    It reminds me of my grandfather's room.
[11:05] ---
    I was always nervous
    whenever I was summoned there,
[11:08] ---
    but now I feel nostalgic.
[11:11] ---
    Did your grandfather praise you?
[11:13] ---
    No.
[11:14] ---
    Poor Re-l.
[11:25] ---
    Was the Proxy here?
[11:32] ---
    Romdo invaded Mosk and seized
    the Monad Proxy by force.
[11:48] ---
    Why can't we live without a Proxy?
[11:53] ---
    Why did Romdo have to get
    a Proxy from someplace else?
[12:00] ---
    What did the Proxy look out upon from here?
[12:17] ---
    Pulse...!
[12:20] ---
    Why did Vince forget?
[12:23] ---
    I wouldn't have forgotten.
[12:25] ---
    We'd lose our minds if
    we remembered everything.
[12:29] ---
    Vince had a hard time, didn't he?
[12:33] ---
    Maybe forgetting was his mind's
    instinctive way of protecting itself.
[12:38] ---
    But if his memory holds the truth...
[12:43] ---
    If only the power supply
    were still working.
[12:46] ---
    Power?
[12:47] ---
    Some place we could charge your battery.
[12:50] ---
    That's here.
[12:52] ---
    What?
[12:53] ---
    There's power here.
[12:55] ---
    Why didn't you say so earlier?
[12:56] ---
    Why didn't you ask earlier?
[13:07] ---
    All right!
[13:12] ---
    I guess not.
[13:15] ---
    I got it! It's all in Pino's head now.
[13:30] ---
    The one who's permitted to open the door...
[13:34] ---
    of course, I remember.
[13:36] ---
    I've been waiting for you...
[13:40] ---
    my honored guest.
[13:52] ---
    What did you gain from erasing
    your memory and leaving here?
[13:57] ---
    You didn't gain anything, did you?
[14:01] ---
    That's why you came back.
[14:04] ---
    Oh my...
[14:06] ---
    With your permission,
[14:08] ---
    the one you assigned to be your
    memory keeper for this very occasion.
[14:14] ---
    I am Amnesia.
[14:17] ---
    Surely you haven't forgotten that?
[14:23] ---
    All right.
[14:26] ---
    Now, then...
[14:28] ---
    that which is divided must become one.
[14:33] ---
    The precious memories
    you entrusted me with, master.
[14:38] ---
    I was afraid they'd become indistinct,
    so I wrote them down like this.
[14:42] ---
    Simply wait and tell.
[14:44] ---
    If I were just a machine,
    it would be an easy job.
[14:52] ---
    Those with independent
    minds lose their memory
[14:56] ---
    as a safeguard to preserve their sanity.
[14:59] ---
    Madness or amnesia,
    which would come first?
[15:02] ---
    Thank goodness we
    met before it ever came to that.
[15:06] ---
    I know.
[15:08] ---
    Please bear with me for a moment.
[15:19] ---
    Yes.
[15:20] ---
    This part tells of the
    time when you met her.
[15:27] ---
    Now then, without further ado.
[15:33] ---
    No, no. Don't worry.
[15:36] ---
    I would never, ever allow anything to
[15:39] ---
    harm the precious memories
    you left with me.
[15:43] ---
    Something's strange.
[15:44] ---
    I wrote it all down precisely,
    so nothing would be forgotten.
[15:48] ---
    No, no, not to worry.
[15:50] ---
    I don't know how
    many nights I stayed up writing...
[15:56] ---
    What are you doing?!
[15:57] ---
    These are your memories!
[16:01] ---
    Why did you come back?
    Why did I have to keep them safe?
[16:06] ---
    Why?
[16:08] ---
    Why?!
[16:15] ---
    Why?!
[16:38] ---
    Vince.
[16:40] ---
    Pino...
[16:42] ---
    Re-l!
[16:43] ---
    Vince is awake!
[16:50] ---
    How are you feeling?
[16:52] ---
    I'm all right now.
[16:54] ---
    We found a lead.
[16:56] ---
    I got it. It's all in my head.
[16:58] ---
    There's a power plant
    operating underneath the facility.
[17:02] ---
    Are you up for going?
[17:03] ---
    How long was I out?
[17:08] ---
    Let's go.
[17:13] ---
    I want you to make this your top priority.
[17:17] ---
    Even more important than
    reviving the Proxy?
[17:20] ---
    We don't need God.
[17:24] ---
    We can't do anything if you're scared.
[17:26] ---
    Killing God won't change anything.
[17:29] ---
    Exactly, it doesn't change anything.
[17:33] ---
    So, then we should change
    at the cellular level.
[17:36] ---
    You can pull it off.
[17:38] ---
    I'm not the only one who has faith in you.
[17:42] ---
    You're funny.
[17:44] ---
    Going to such lengths.
[17:46] ---
    We're going to change, literally.
[17:49] ---
    You're going to transform us
    into what we were supposed to be.
[17:53] ---
    As you wish.
[17:55] ---
    If there's anything you
    need from Romdo, I'll take care of it.
[18:14] ---
    Red string?
[18:20] ---
    Give it back please!
[18:23] ---
    Sure.
[18:24] ---
    It's very important.
[18:27] ---
    Really?
[18:32] ---
    Sorry I made you wait.
[18:35] ---
    What's this?
[18:36] ---
    A replacement for Re-l Mayer?
[18:39] ---
    Replacement?
[18:41] ---
    This is the real Real Mayer.
[18:44] ---
    Shall we go, Real?
[18:57] ---
    He's starting to lose it.
[19:01] ---
    This way!
[19:03] ---
    Did they build this section
[19:05] ---
    so they would still
    have energy in an emergency?
[19:09] ---
    This place...
[19:11] ---
    Do you know something?
[19:13] ---
    No, it's just...
[19:15] ---
    I feel like I've been
    here before for some reason.
[19:22] ---
    Is all this scrawling on
    the wall some kind of language?
[19:25] ---
    Can you read them?
[19:26] ---
    No.
[19:31] ---
    Let's not.
[19:32] ---
    There might be something inside.
[19:34] ---
    Look here!
[19:36] ---
    It's your thing!
[19:38] ---
    It's the same shape as your pendant.
[19:41] ---
    I don't believe it.
[19:49] ---
    It opened!
[19:51] ---
    Was that a key?
[19:57] ---
    What is this room?
[20:00] ---
    And what's it doing here like this?
[20:02] ---
    Who are you?
[20:04] ---
    Leave it alone. It's broken.
[20:07] ---
    Is he dead?
[20:12] ---
    What happened?
[20:14] ---
    Must become one.
    That which is divided must become one.
[20:20] ---
    That which is divided?
[20:22] ---
    That which is divided must become one.
[20:25] ---
    Like I thought, it's broken.
[20:27] ---
    What's it mean?
[20:34] ---
    Vincent!
[20:36] ---
    That's...
[20:41] ---
    Re-l, is that...?
    That which is divided...
[20:43] ---
    Re-l, is that...?
    To Romdo... To Romdo... To Romdo...
[20:46] ---
    To... Ro... m... do...
[20:49] ---
    He said Romdo!
[20:50] ---
    Hey, what do you mean? Hey!
[20:53] ---
    Say something!
[20:58] ---
    It's...
[21:00] ---
    What is it?
[21:09] ---
    They match!
[21:18] ---
    You truly are the mystery of the world.
[21:22] ---
    You mustn't show that smile to other men.
[21:35] ---
    Beautiful...
[21:39] ---
    You're here again?
[21:43] ---
    I thought you'd been wiped out.
[21:46] ---
    Then you're a symbol of
    what I'm up against?
[21:50] ---
    That's fine.
[21:51] ---
    I will annihilate you.
[21:54] ---
    You don't scare me.
[22:00] ---
    Maybe it was a
    message for you from Monad.
[22:04] ---
    Monad...
[22:06] ---
    Then it was Monad.
[22:08] ---
    You must have transferred
    your memories to her.
[22:11] ---
    Because she loved you, didn't she?
[22:15] ---
    It turns out even this
    place was a dead end.
[22:18] ---
    No.
[22:19] ---
    We found where we're supposed to go.
[22:22] ---
    I saw the same message back in Romdo.
[22:28] ---
    The night I first met you as a Proxy.
[22:39] ---
    That's why...
[22:41] ---
    That's Romdo.
[22:44] ---
    Can we make it back?
[22:46] ---
    We have to.
[22:48] ---
    Vincent Law...
[22:50] ---
    what the hell are you?
[22:53] ---
    Another pendant.
[22:55] ---
    What is the same pendant doing here?
[22:59] ---
    That which is
    divided must become one.
[23:03] ---
    I wonder if that
    refers to Vincent and Ergo.
[23:08] ---
    If that were the case,
    whoever killed the AutoReiv
[23:10] ---
    and stole the memory evidence was...
[23:16] ---
    Let's go back to Romdo.
[23:21] ---
    Right.
[23:26] ---
    I guess we're going back there.
[23:31] ---
    The last stop on our journey.
[23:34] ---
    We ran into many Proxies...
[23:37] ---
    but it wasn't any of them.
[23:39] ---
    The message and the
    thread linking the two pendants.
[23:46] ---
    Monad was responsible for everything.
[23:49] ---
    The link between Monad and Vincent...
[23:52] ---
    and with the Proxy...
[23:55] ---
    The answer is there. I know it.
[25:31] ---
    Smile Land.
[25:33] ---
    It's the kingdom of eternal smiles.
[25:36] ---
    All who come are taken into
    the world of dreams...
[25:39] ---
    The Girl with a Smile
[25:41] ---
    until all sense of time is lost.
[25:43] ---
