[00:23] ---
    "Supreme Court"
[00:30] ---
    Kazuya Soga, get out here!
[00:32] ---
    --Griffin Unit, ten minutes to airstrike.
    --Eagle clear.
[00:34] ---
    --Griffin Unit,
    --Fox negative.
[00:36] ---
    --ten minutes to airstrike.
    --Griffin here. Roger that.
[00:39] ---
    --Griffin Unit, ten minutes to airstrike.
    --It's clear!
[00:52] ---
    --Tossing hand grenade.
    --Wait! They've got hostages.
[00:56] ---
    Request support!
[01:19] ---
    We hereby issue the final verdict
    on defendant Kazuya Soga.
[01:28] ---
    It is evident that the defendant
    committed crimes against humanity
[01:33] ---
    during the fighting in Qhardistan.
[01:38] ---
    Therefore, this war crimes court
    hereby sentences him to death.
[03:33] ---
    Strange... Why am I awake when
    everyone else is sleep-learning?
[03:37] ---
    Lend me that clever little brain of yours.
[03:45] ---
    Who are you?
[03:50] ---
    Who is that updating my synchronization?
[03:54] ---
    You and me...?
[03:56] ---
    Huh?
[03:58] ---
    We're doing this to clear our
    names and Colonel Soga's!
[04:01] ---
    Get the module into the vehicle!
[04:15] ---
    It's a secret.
[04:24] ---
    Last night, all of Public Security's systems
    went down for just 1.8 seconds.
[04:30] ---
    Mistake? Error? Hacking?
[04:33] ---
    We're investigating.
[04:35] ---
    But there's a possibility that this one
    Logicoma synched with something.
[04:40] ---
    "Something"?
[04:41] ---
    I want you to find out what--and how
    it's related to the system going down.
[04:47] ---
    What freak would bother accessing
    an AI with an outdated neurochip,
[04:50] ---
    not to mention a conveyer
    that can only walk and talk?
[04:56] ---
    In any case, we're leaving the
    others off and isolating this one.
[05:00] ---
    I'd like you to investigate it, too.
[05:03] ---
    In other words, you're worried
    it was an inside job.
[05:06] ---
    All right, I'll use a civilian facility.
[05:09] ---
    I would have liked to go to an
    independent squad with this...
[05:13] ---
    Still looking for the perfect personnel?
[05:16] ---
    It is my team. I intend to take care.
[05:19] ---
    People can get addicted to
    the carefree consultant life.
[05:23] ---
    Or are you waiting to form it until
    it's a higher priority for the brass?
[05:28] ---
    If you want the squad to last,
    don't get overly ambitious.
[05:40] ---
    Your parallel commands are randomized?
[05:45] ---
    Is there a point to that?
[05:46] ---
    It's best for our learning.
[05:52] ---
    It's outside my system standards.
[05:54] ---
    Can you explain the data you received verbally?
[05:58] ---
    Um, I feel like it was
    something really important...
[06:02] ---
    I see it was completely integrated.
[06:05] ---
    Whoever did this, they're good.
[06:09] ---
    I feel sort of fluttery.
[06:11] ---
    There's no record of the infiltrator.
[06:13] ---
    Not only were you fully integrated,
[06:15] ---
    you got yourself bitten by false memories too.
[06:18] ---
    I got bitten?!
[06:22] ---
    Precious experience points!
[06:32] ---
    Bingo.
[06:33] ---
    Wow, that was inside me?! I'm amazing!
[06:37] ---
    Yeah, yeah. They really are good.
[06:41] ---
    I'm saying that for a soldier,
[06:43] ---
    killing your own countrymen
    is as low as you can sink!
[06:46] ---
    What's this?
[06:47] ---
    We're doing it to prove
    our innocence, and the colonel's!
[06:51] ---
    Just get the module--
[07:10] ---
    A traffic control error?
[07:16] ---
    What, what, what?!
[07:18] ---
    Logicoma!
[07:22] ---
    Sheesh!
[07:35] ---
    Why is everyone suddenly crazy?!
[08:54] ---
    Motoko Kusanagi...
[08:56] ---
    Kusanagi? The major with the 501?
[08:59] ---
    Pretty sure she's independent now.
[09:02] ---
    Call in all deployed
    personnel as reinforcements.
[09:06] ---
    An assault?
[09:08] ---
    It's raining military-grade bullets.
[09:10] ---
    They took advantage of a traffic control error.
[09:12] ---
    Assuming you aren't
    setting me up, send backup.
[09:17] ---
    The attackers are battle cyborgs.
    One of them is Batou, the sleepless eye.
[09:21] ---
    What?!
[09:22] ---
    I found a strange code in the data
    planted in the Logicoma's AI.
[09:28] ---
    So that's their objective.
[09:30] ---
    Put the Logicoma in self-defense mode.
    I'll have backup there in fifteen minutes.
[09:34] ---
    Fifteen?!
[09:35] ---
    The traffic network is being taken over.
[09:39] ---
    Report.
[09:40] ---
    Domination expanding throughout the city.
[09:46] ---
    Well, hurry up and stop it!
[09:48] ---
    We don't have enough processing speed.
[09:52] ---
    Huh?
[09:53] ---
    Penetration increasing.
    Defensive advance ineffective.
[10:03] ---
    Locking down the airport now.
[10:04] ---
    --We have a malfunction in the new
    control system, cause unknown.
    --Divert all flights to surrounding airports.
[10:07] ---
    --Flight A885, the airport is
    --Send those with extra fuel furthest away.
[10:09] ---
    --shut down due to a crash.
    --Tell Tokyo Control to return
    all landing planes to...
[10:11] ---
    Both air-traffic control and the new
    street traffic system are affected.
[10:16] ---
    80% of the street system has been
    taken over by an outside operator.
[10:24] ---
    This is crazy--what enormous
    system is our hacker using?!
[10:30] ---
    Major, fifteen minutes will be a problem.
[10:33] ---
    You're joking!
[10:34] ---
    This isn't an error. It's a crime.
[10:42] ---
    Large-scale domination?!
    Who has a system like that?!
[10:56] ---
    Give me weapons!
[11:00] ---
    Why are you empty?!
[11:02] ---
    I was being inspected.
[11:04] ---
    Guess I'll set up an ambush.
[11:15] ---
    You hear that, Borma?
    Get it done in ten minutes.
[11:18] ---
    Don't let Public Security
    use the de-parallelizing code.
[11:21] ---
    Borma!
[11:25] ---
    You bitch!
[12:01] ---
    Where'd they get that crap?
[12:07] ---
    The range of domination is
    still expanding, you know.
[12:10] ---
    The only solution is to get the module.
[12:13] ---
    Who are you? You've been spying
    on me since I left Public Security.
[12:17] ---
    To ask for your help. I want you to
    trust me and hand over the conveyer.
[12:21] ---
    I recognize your voice from yesterday...!
[12:24] ---
    Yes. I'm the one who infiltrated him.
[12:39] ---
    And Public Security's system going down?
[12:41] ---
    That wasn't me.
[12:43] ---
    That was the first move of the group
[12:46] ---
    using a special military module to carry
    out a large-scale cyber operation.
[12:50] ---
    "Operation"?
[13:07] ---
    Here I go!
[13:29] ---
    Logicoma!
[13:36] ---
    The enemy stole the module's
    de-parallelizing code from me.
[13:41] ---
    All I could do was replicate the code
[13:44] ---
    and copy it to an isolation-capable
    AI they couldn't interfere with.
[13:50] ---
    You, in other words.
[13:52] ---
    I knew it! I do carry an incredible secret!
[13:57] ---
    --Indeed.
    --Oh, dear.
[13:59] ---
    Logicoma, full speed. Get us to the exit!
[14:01] ---
    Aye aye, sir!
[14:12] ---
    --Face front!
    --Aaand... stop!
[14:19] ---
    --Hey!
    --Huh?
[14:21] ---
    Huh?
[14:22] ---
    Huh...?
[14:30] ---
    Shield!
[14:39] ---
    Huh?! I'm not broken.
[15:02] ---
    Where'd this "military module" come from?
[15:05] ---
    It's a Mass Field-Hacking Unit jointly
    developed with seven leading companies
[15:08] ---
    in the old Silicon Valley.
[15:11] ---
    Military joint production?
    Are you an American agent?
[15:16] ---
    I'm Special Forces.
[15:19] ---
    My code name is "VV." I'm supporting
    you in hope of your cooperation.
[15:26] ---
    Great, now we've got two enemies.
[15:30] ---
    So that agent came to take back the module.
[15:34] ---
    But don't let her throw you.
[15:36] ---
    All we have to do is destroy the Public
    Security machine, and it's checkmate.
[15:41] ---
    How's the domination coming?
[15:43] ---
    We're close to target values.
[15:45] ---
    We won't let 'em get away with anything else.
[15:47] ---
    Get me a line and connect to the colonel.
[15:51] ---
    This war crimes court hereby sentences...
[16:03] ---
    Colonel Soga, how dare you?!
[16:04] ---
    Who the hell are you?!
[16:06] ---
    The Administrative Vice-Minister of Defense.
    I want to talk to that man!
[16:10] ---
    Vice-Minister Kasuga.
    I'm flattered by your concern.
[16:15] ---
    But I create my own circumstances.
[16:18] ---
    --Excuse me?
    --Those who obstruct my Net
    will disappear from this city.
[16:27] ---
    I only desire one thing...
[16:36] ---
    To make our truths known!
[16:48] ---
    Aramaki, I assume you've heard of Soga?
[16:51] ---
    Kazuya Soga, the war criminal in
    the Qhardistan massacre, correct?
[16:55] ---
    He's the man behind this traffic chaos.
[16:59] ---
    He's still connected to the Net even
    after we tossed him in an isolation cell.
[17:04] ---
    Can't the great Section 9 stop him?!
[17:07] ---
    He's on an independent line
    via military satellite.
[17:10] ---
    We'd have to open a hole in our tactical
    defenses: either kill the line with him,
[17:14] ---
    or shoot down the satellite.
[17:16] ---
    Out of the question!
[17:18] ---
    Then our hands are tied for the moment.
[17:21] ---
    Even with all Home Affairs and civilian Als
    working at full capacity, we wouldn't have
[17:25] ---
    the processing power to break his command
    and take back the traffic control systems.
[17:30] ---
    They made him a scapegoat
    when he refused to testify in court.
[17:34] ---
    I did what I could to commute his sentence...
[17:40] ---
    But I never thought he'd mobilize his unit!
[17:42] ---
    His motive is clear, anyway.
[17:45] ---
    To an honest soldier, a postwar
    military purge is a state betrayal.
[17:51] ---
    Well, have a seat.
[17:54] ---
    Where did his unit get those weapons?
[17:57] ---
    The lower-ranking NCOs are on strike right now,
[18:00] ---
    so it wouldn't surprise anyone
    if a whole arsenal disappeared.
[18:05] ---
    One last thing, then: What's he after?
[18:11] ---
    He's demanding access to a military database...
[18:15] ---
    ...called "Pandora."
[18:17] ---
    State secrets?
[18:20] ---
    Does he mean to bring the details of an
    Army operation before the war crimes court?
[18:26] ---
    That's not all.
[18:29] ---
    He wants to air the Army's and Public
    Security's dirty laundry to the world
[18:32] ---
    in exchange for this city's twenty
    million cars and the people in them.
[18:36] ---
    He wants Japan itself to be
    judged just like he was judged?
[18:41] ---
    Other countries would use war crimes
    as a pretext for all sorts of demands...
[18:46] ---
    We might as well be under occupation again.
[18:49] ---
    As the war's greatest losers, our country
    would be the world's puppet state.
[18:55] ---
    It doesn't even bear discussing!
    We'll never give in to that demand!
[18:59] ---
    Are you speaking on behalf of Home Affairs?
[19:02] ---
    N-No! But...
[19:10] ---
    Colonel Kazuya Soga?
[19:12] ---
    He commanded an op in Qhardistan
    that won him high praise.
[19:17] ---
    Then he was accused of conducting
    a massacre during the op
[19:19] ---
    and convicted as a war criminal.
    He's currently in custody.
[19:23] ---
    A hero during the war, and a criminal afterward.
[19:27] ---
    And Soga's sympathizers are using
    the module to seek his release?
[19:32] ---
    Major--
[19:33] ---
    She's an informant. I brought
    her in on a provisional basis.
[19:37] ---
    What exactly is this "module"?
[19:40] ---
    It creates processing power on the
    level of a giant nationwide system.
[19:45] ---
    They must have used it to parallelize
    something low-capacity in huge quantities.
[19:50] ---
    Your opinion?
[19:52] ---
    I agree with Major Kusanagi.
[19:54] ---
    And is your objective to retrieve the module?
[19:57] ---
    Or destroy it.
[20:00] ---
    The most effective method is to use
    the code I evacuated into your AI
[20:06] ---
    from somewhere free of enemy interference.
[20:09] ---
    Why was it stolen in the first place?
[20:12] ---
    The module was a model brought here for
    top-secret standards sharing with Japan.
[20:17] ---
    I take it your colleagues are making a
    top-secret investigation of the theft?
[20:22] ---
    I'll leave that to your imagination.
[20:25] ---
    Along with how you pinpointed
    the enemy's smuggling point?
[20:29] ---
    Both issues are the purview of the
    Administrative Vice-Minister of Defense,
[20:32] ---
    but he didn't mention them
    when I spoke to him just now.
[20:36] ---
    Evidently something's being hushed up.
[20:39] ---
    Another reason I want you
[20:40] ---
    to tell the Ministry of Home Affairs
    to give my squad top priority.
[20:45] ---
    Since when do you have a squad?!
[20:48] ---
    I'm about to form one. Based on skill,
    with no ranks, and given top priority.
[20:53] ---
    Bad plan! Special forces
    teams aren't mercenaries!
[20:56] ---
    If you take advantage of a
    disaster for your own gain,
[20:59] ---
    the defense world will treat you like a vulture!
[21:02] ---
    I'm not interested in teams out for money
[21:04] ---
    or ministry bigwigs gunning
    for postwar concessions.
[21:09] ---
    Tell me this: How are the
    Home Affairs higher-ups?
[21:12] ---
    Having themselves an "elite panic"
    with the Ministry of Defense.
[21:16] ---
    They're afraid the public
    will panic if word gets out,
[21:19] ---
    so other than a few of my units,
    they won't order anyone to act.
[21:23] ---
    We're the only ones who can act right now.
[21:25] ---
    A team formed on a fixed standard that
    will be necessary everywhere in every age.
[21:43] ---
    So it's finally taking off.
[22:12] ---
    Whoops, survived again.
[22:15] ---
    Playing Russian roulette in a virtual reality?
[22:23] ---
    Do you reproduce the sensation of the
    bullet penetrating your cranium, too?
[22:27] ---
    You've got a sickness.
[22:30] ---
    Kusanagi from the 501!
    When did you sneak in here?!
[22:33] ---
    I'm independent. The op in Qhardistan,
    the American Army module, and Soga...
[22:39] ---
    Tell me what you know, or take
    a real-life bullet. Your choice.
[22:43] ---
    Hold on! Why come to me?
[22:45] ---
    You served under Soga in Qhardistan.
[22:48] ---
    There's a record of Ishikawa
    calling you on your private line.
[22:52] ---
    Hey, I turned down the job with the 78th!
    The pay wasn't good enough.
[22:57] ---
    The Marines' ace sniper turned into
    a compulsive gambler after the war?
[23:00] ---
    Is that why your unit's leave-time
    budget's been cooked to high hell?
[23:05] ---
    How did you know--
[23:07] ---
    If your postwar days are about
    turning your life into cash,
[23:11] ---
    I'll play your game.
[23:13] ---
    Join my spec ops team in the next five seconds,
[23:17] ---
    or the money you embezzled gets
    transferred to Maritime Command.
[23:22] ---
    Bitch.
[23:24] ---
    I'll pay you a salary.
[23:30] ---
    The radio's still up, right? Divert everyone
    before we lose the whole system.
[24:07] ---
    So you're the MP?
[24:09] ---
    What'd she threaten you with to bring you in?
[24:12] ---
    Oh, I volunteered.
[24:14] ---
    I've been waiting for the
    Major to start up her team.
[24:18] ---
    You're a messed-up guy.
[24:27] ---
    How can you control this
    with the domination going on?
[24:30] ---
    This antique has some special specifications.
[24:33] ---
    It's in a whole different class from
    your friend's old clunker there!
[24:43] ---
    Since we can't cut Soga's Net,
    we'll have to physically seize the module.
[24:48] ---
    This facility is the most likely
    candidate for our enemy's base.
[24:52] ---
    I see; you'll only give us our target's location.
[24:54] ---
    You don't want to get your own hands dirty.
[24:57] ---
    I'm a neat freak.
[24:59] ---
    An old communications equipment company, eh?
[25:02] ---
    Not much for a sniper to do if
    they're holed up in a server room.
[25:07] ---
    Don't worry, I'll smoke out
    plenty of targets for you.
[25:23] ---
    Bingo? Seriously?
[25:24] ---
    Just one squad, and they get their
    own ground support chopper...
[25:29] ---
    Good grief.
[25:57] ---
    We're going, Logicoma.
[25:58] ---
    Huh? But I'm not done with the sensors...
[26:02] ---
    What?! Really?!
[26:09] ---
    --Safe...
    --You're slow!
[26:20] ---
    Paz, status?
[26:21] ---
    Not sure whether it went well or not, but I'm in.
[26:25] ---
    So are we. Report if you find the module.
[26:29] ---
    Let's do this.
[26:30] ---
    No use!
[26:42] ---
    A barrier maze?
[26:48] ---
    This processing speed...
[26:50] ---
    You people can't stop my Net.
[26:56] ---
    In about an hour, Pandora's lid will open.
[27:00] ---
    It's impossible to stop me before then.
[27:05] ---
    You want revenge against
    the country that badly?
[27:10] ---
    I'm uncovering the truth.
[28:06] ---
    The op to move the refugees in Qhardistan
[28:10] ---
    was the 78th Composite Unit's final mission.
[28:13] ---
    Which was an extermination op you led?
[28:15] ---
    No!
[28:17] ---
    This is...
[28:23] ---
    They were unarmed refugees.
[28:26] ---
    Afterward, a conglomerate occupied their land.
[28:30] ---
    Someone ordered their slaughter
    to benefit the national interest.
[28:49] ---
    Give me water!
[29:17] ---
    This is the first step.
[29:20] ---
    I'll put all the nations who led the
    world into war in that same position.
[29:25] ---
    Soga! You've been inf--
[29:35] ---
    Soga?
[29:41] ---
    This is...
[29:42] ---
    A gap in the maze, maybe?
[29:45] ---
    How did she leave the
    barrier maze? No--she didn't.
[29:57] ---
    Soga can't see me?
[29:59] ---
    I did manage to land in a gap.
[30:11] ---
    An accident-prevention AI?!
[30:14] ---
    He's parallelized all the Als
    in Japan's traffic network!
[30:40] ---
    That was close.
[30:41] ---
    My barrier won't last long. Let's hurry.
[30:46] ---
    It's been three minutes since we
    lost contact with Major Kusanagi.
[30:50] ---
    Call from the Ministry of Defense.
[30:52] ---
    A DoS attack on the Pandora
    barrier began four minutes ago.
[30:56] ---
    We can't keep up with it.
[31:00] ---
    Sounds like it was a mistake to
    give Public Security free rein!
[31:03] ---
    You invited this by carelessly stirring Soga up!
[31:10] ---
    Major! Are you all right? What's the situation?
[31:13] ---
    Soga took over the traffic control
    system through the module.
[31:17] ---
    But the threat to kill if we
    didn't release Pandora was fake.
[31:22] ---
    He intends to use the vast
    system power he's gained
[31:24] ---
    to break Pandora wide open.
[31:27] ---
    I see...
[31:30] ---
    In that case, there are steps we can take.
[31:33] ---
    You keep working to recover the module.
[31:40] ---
    Nice timing!
[31:42] ---
    The deal with the government should be a bluff.
[31:44] ---
    Colonel Soga went too far.
[31:47] ---
    This started as a plan for the
    Vice-Minister to sell Pandora!
[31:50] ---
    We can't survive turning
    the whole world against us!
[31:54] ---
    If you've got cold feet, run. Nobody'll stop you.
[31:58] ---
    Negotiate a deal or whatever.
[32:00] ---
    I sure will!
[32:03] ---
    If you're in this for money, run without a fight.
[32:13] ---
    Hey! Home Affairs just gave us money!
[32:17] ---
    Give it to someone who cares!
[32:20] ---
    We're withdrawing. I'll buy some time.
[32:23] ---
    The colonel didn't even wait
    to clear the 78th's name.
[32:27] ---
    Why do you figure that is?
[32:30] ---
    Kasuga!
[32:33] ---
    The colonel got scapegoated...!
[32:35] ---
    Let's go!
[32:37] ---
    I'll meet up with you once I've stalled them.
[32:39] ---
    Do it fast.
[32:41] ---
    Paz, do you read me?
[32:42] ---
    More or less.
[32:43] ---
    Do you know an intelligence
    man named Ishikawa?
[32:45] ---
    Sure do.
[32:50] ---
    If you find him, use a cable
    to get him to the cyber lobby.
[32:53] ---
    Roger!
[32:54] ---
    I'm hanging up before they detect our line.
[32:56] ---
    Shit. The colonel's got domination,
    but they're still roaming free!
[33:05] ---
    Don't underestimate me. I can locate
    even a super-wizard-class hacker
[33:08] ---
    if they make a call during domination!
[33:11] ---
    The Major's got business with you.
    Let me connect you, and nobody gets hurt.
[33:17] ---
    Try it, kiddo. I'll play with you.
[33:32] ---
    Be a good boy, and you won't get hurt.
[33:35] ---
    You mean you won't.
[33:39] ---
    She was playing me with that call?
    Damn gorilla woman!
[33:44] ---
    Who are you calling a gorilla?
[33:49] ---
    Major Kusanagi!
[33:57] ---
    Planning to stick me with a virus?
[33:59] ---
    The opposite. I think you're already infected.
[34:02] ---
    What?
[34:03] ---
    It's a makeshift vaccine, so you'll
    have to put up with any bugs.
[34:16] ---
    I've lost contact with Ishikawa.
[34:19] ---
    I'll go.
[34:20] ---
    I'll take the module and go on ahead.
    We rendezvous at the trap!
[34:24] ---
    Roger!
[34:26] ---
    Drive.
[34:29] ---
    Shit. You, Saito?!
[34:32] ---
    We're all pros here. No holding a grudge.
[34:36] ---
    If you're a pro, join the side that pays best.
[34:38] ---
    Home Affairs paid us.
    I'll give you a triple share.
[34:42] ---
    Take it from my account!
[34:45] ---
    For real?!
[34:54] ---
    Ishikawa!
[34:55] ---
    C'mon, let's get back to guarding the module.
[34:58] ---
    Don't move.
[35:00] ---
    Hey! Ishikawa?!
[35:05] ---
    Major!
[35:07] ---
    They all left. Only one car stayed behind.
[35:12] ---
    --It didn't work!
    --Damn, they pulled out already?
[35:15] ---
    They've got good judgment.
[35:17] ---
    Paz, you go in VV's car.
    I'll go with the Logicoma!
[35:26] ---
    Saito!
[35:40] ---
    You transferred them money?!
[35:43] ---
    Why would you swallow
    the enemy's bluff so easily?
[35:46] ---
    This is the result of our negotiation with Soga.
[35:49] ---
    We planned to put the money
    toward the Economic Amnesty Act,
[35:52] ---
    but it came from vet pensions that
    got slashed in the Army budget cuts.
[35:56] ---
    Do you honestly think
    that's what they're after?!
[36:00] ---
    Just whose cause are we
    supposed to be working for here?
[36:04] ---
    The funds will be traced, and the Ministry
    of Defense is taking responsibility.
[36:08] ---
    Our people stay out of this, got it?
[36:14] ---
    Did you check up on the
    enemy's parallel circuitry?
[36:17] ---
    The onboard Als of twenty million
    vehicles in this city are in enemy control.
[36:21] ---
    Including my car.
[36:22] ---
    The system is so overpowered we can
    hardly manage to move one chopper.
[36:27] ---
    But there is a way to turn
    the tables, if only temporarily.
[36:32] ---
    Tell me.
[36:49] ---
    Charge!
[36:54] ---
    Here already?!
[36:59] ---
    Logicoma, the tires!
[37:10] ---
    Cut between them. You take right!
[37:26] ---
    A car?! How can they move
    during our domination?
[37:31] ---
    Here we go, Paz.
[37:47] ---
    He's taken over my car!
[37:50] ---
    "Special specifications," my ass!
[37:53] ---
    He quit everything to focus some
    crazy pressure on me! It's too much!
[37:58] ---
    Ishikawa!
[38:00] ---
    Damn gorilla woman's calling.
[38:08] ---
    Ishikawa?
[38:15] ---
    Shit. Never figured the
    colonel'd try to brain-fry me!
[38:17] ---
    I can't believe it--did he really?!
[38:20] ---
    We're about to find out what the truth is.
[38:28] ---
    I have control!
[38:35] ---
    Ishikawa's cooperating with 'em?
[38:57] ---
    Saito!
[38:59] ---
    Sorry, lady, but they sweetened the pot.
[39:03] ---
    Good work, Saito!
[39:07] ---
    We're almost to the trap. Once we get there...
[39:11] ---
    We win!
[39:13] ---
    You damn gambling-freak mercenary!
[39:39] ---
    Huh? I can't see them anymore.
[39:53] ---
    This makes no sense.
[39:55] ---
    Where are they?!
[39:57] ---
    Five minutes to infiltration of Pandora.
[40:03] ---
    There's no record that I've been hacked,
    so why did they vanish?!
[40:07] ---
    They didn't overwrite your vision.
[40:10] ---
    Can you move?!
[40:11] ---
    I lost my right arm, but don't worry--
    we're still in the game.
[40:14] ---
    So what was their trick?
[40:17] ---
    They used our own skills to
    fake us out. Slick of them.
[40:21] ---
    It's an old type of optical
    camouflage holograph.
[40:24] ---
    I'd have missed it if we weren't going so slowly.
[40:26] ---
    I'll send you the location.
[40:28] ---
    Securing the module is top priority.
    We're out of time.
[40:32] ---
    They figured it out?
[40:35] ---
    They're damn persistent!
[41:07] ---
    --Fire!
    --Aye!
[41:40] ---
    We don't have your mobility,
    so it'll take us a bit.
[41:43] ---
    No problem. Logicoma, you stay there.
[41:47] ---
    Wait until we get to you!
[41:54] ---
    Skilled as always.
[41:56] ---
    But you're not the only one good
    at infiltrating vision, 501 Major...
[42:01] ---
    No, just "Major" now.
[42:21] ---
    Paz!
[42:23] ---
    VV, get the module, fast!
[42:30] ---
    Ten seconds to infiltration of Pandora.
[42:32] ---
    9, 8, 7, 6...
[42:50] ---
    "Slow Down for Roadblocks"
[42:55] ---
    We set up 317 roadblocks, from Wards 1
    through 38. Do we keep going?
[43:02] ---
    Mobilize all forces and
    put up as many as you can.
[43:05] ---
    We'll tie up all vehicles' onboard computers
    with accident-avoidance processes.
[43:09] ---
    The fate of our nation is at stake.
[43:12] ---
    I feel bad for the MLIT,
[43:14] ---
    but I'm going to cause the
    worst gridlock in thirty years.
[43:27] ---
    Aramaki from Public Security?
[43:34] ---
    This is his doing?
[43:52] ---
    Paz!
[44:04] ---
    You're too late. Soga's opening
    up Pandora as we speak.
[44:09] ---
    Nope. His power is down.
[44:13] ---
    Public Security's stopped more than
    30% of the vehicles that were in motion.
[44:29] ---
    Both you and Colonel Soga
    had been deliberately infected.
[45:14] ---
    There is no "truth" about
    that refugee transport op.
[45:18] ---
    You killed those people
    and ordered an airstrike.
[45:22] ---
    You did it because all the "refugees"
    you were trying to safeguard
[45:26] ---
    were armed guerillas.
[45:36] ---
    It's the MOD's responsibility now.
[45:38] ---
    Either do something about him,
    or destroy Pandora right now!
[45:42] ---
    Obviously out of the question!
[45:46] ---
    Because you want me to open Pandora?
[45:49] ---
    What?
[45:52] ---
    Don't!
[45:55] ---
    You bastard!
[45:59] ---
    Wait! Don't shoot!
[46:02] ---
    It was the Administrative Vice-Minister
    who gave me the module.
[46:05] ---
    That agent's objective is the same.
[46:08] ---
    Make sure you don't use
    the de-parallelizing code.
[46:11] ---
    What?
[46:14] ---
    I can't stop the infiltration.
[46:16] ---
    This is the only way!
[46:19] ---
    Stop!
[46:28] ---
    I gave you a copy of the vaccine.
[46:31] ---
    It's imperfect, but you'll be able
    to tell which memories are false.
[46:35] ---
    It's unlikely we'll be able to
    eradicate them, but I'll give you a hand.
[46:39] ---
    Not interested.
[46:42] ---
    It's the only memory that lets me feel
    like I'm not just a dog trained to kill!
[46:50] ---
    You're just a whiny bitch, then.
[46:55] ---
    What happened, Major?!
[46:56] ---
    It's over. Send a rescue squad.
[46:59] ---
    What do you mean, "over"?!
[47:02] ---
    Pandora's been infiltrated!
[47:03] ---
    The data's being leaked to
    a different Net than Soga's!
[47:11] ---
    Step away from the module!
[47:23] ---
    Don't resist. I feel an affinity with you.
[47:27] ---
    You, who haven't had a flesh-and-blood
    body for as long as you can remember.
[47:41] ---
    You bitch...
[47:53] ---
    That attack barrier is meaningless.
[47:58] ---
    My brain has to be synchronized, like his.
[48:06] ---
    A neurochip? You're...
[48:11] ---
    I must find out where it came from--
[48:13] ---
    this thing which infected me
    and gave me true self-awareness.
[48:20] ---
    Even if I have to access the whole world's
    organizations and their secrets...
[48:26] ---
    ...I shall.
[48:42] ---
    You're an artificial intelligence
    pretending to be human...
[48:46] ---
    What for?!
[48:49] ---
    I just have to know.
[48:52] ---
    My Ghost whi--spered--that--to--me--
[49:01] ---
    Ghost...
[49:08] ---
    Huh?
[49:09] ---
    A certain intelligence agency admitted
[49:11] ---
    that one of its Als was infected
    with an unknown virus on the Net
[49:15] ---
    and began acting outside of their control.
[49:18] ---
    And it absconded with the module,
[49:20] ---
    then manipulated the Vice-Minister.
[49:23] ---
    He made too many dangerous
    deals during the war.
[49:27] ---
    He intended to sell the contents
    of Pandora and flee the country.
[49:31] ---
    That's why he manipulated Soga
    and sent in a team of his own pawns.
[49:36] ---
    But Soga seized control of the situation,
    so the AI planned a recovery strategy.
[49:40] ---
    "A rogue AI did it all" --how very convenient.
[49:44] ---
    Even if it's half true, I'm sure they
    let things lie to try to profit from her.
[49:47] ---
    Though it seems they're not the
    only ones to try to profit from this.
[49:52] ---
    You're the one who came to me.
[49:54] ---
    With the result that you made
    your team a fait accompli
[49:57] ---
    with the highest possible priority.
[50:00] ---
    Want to re-register as part of Section 9?
[50:04] ---
    They'll cancel this registration if you
    can't get enough people together.
[50:08] ---
    No thanks.
[50:10] ---
    I appreciate your help
    with the paperwork, though.
[50:32] ---
    It'll close in five minutes. Decide before then.
[50:35] ---
    Sit there and get sentenced in one
    of the speed-trials the system loves,
[50:39] ---
    or join my squad.
[50:42] ---
    You say that to everyone you've
    been in shooting matches with?
[50:46] ---
    I can only get people infected
    with the memory virus released.
[50:49] ---
    Though those three are the ones I want anyway.
[50:53] ---
    They'll accept that after we just
    picked a fight with the government?
[50:56] ---
    If I, Section 9, and a certain
    country's intelligence agency
[50:59] ---
    testify about the false memories.
[51:02] ---
    Ishikawa and Borma agreed.
[51:04] ---
    As for Saito, when I paid him a little
    visit before he could go to ground,
[51:08] ---
    he begged me to let him join.
[51:14] ---
    You're some piece of work.
[51:16] ---
    So, you're telling me to be
    Public Security's errand boy?
[51:19] ---
    It's an independent offensive unit
    based on skill, with no ranks,
[51:23] ---
    and it has top priority.
[51:25] ---
    I'll give you memories of being
    more than a dog trained to kill.
[51:34] ---
    These fake memories--can you really erase 'em?
[51:38] ---
    I can try.
[52:17] ---
    Creeping black clouds
[52:27] ---
    Your eyes are beautiful
[52:36] ---
    You're going to join those ranks, then
[52:46] ---
    Those ranks don't suit you
[52:54] ---
    Come on
[52:57] ---
    It's okay, come
[53:01] ---
    Hide here
[53:07] ---
    It's okay, look
[53:11] ---
    It's a battlefield outside
[53:17] ---
    Afternoon, the sun shining through the window
[53:28] ---
    Back when you were just a child
[53:37] ---
    Don't give up that sight
[53:47] ---
    We won't hand over that sight
[53:54] ---
    Come on
[53:57] ---
    It's okay, come
[54:02] ---
    Hide here
[54:07] ---
    It's okay, look
[54:12] ---
    It's a battlefield outside
[54:18] ---
    They can't see us
[54:26] ---
    Not me, and not you
[54:36] ---
    Even if they could
[54:41] ---
    It would only be empty shells
[54:59] ---
    All the ones with loud voices are gone now
[55:05] ---
    See? It's quiet
[55:09] ---
    I love you, love you
[55:13] ---
    Shh
[55:15] ---
    I love you, I love you, I love you...
[55:20] ---
    I love you, I love you, I love you
[55:25] ---
    Love you...
[55:30] ---
    Love you
