[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:45] ---
    Everyone is in position.
[01:47] ---
    We're prepared to break in.
[01:49] ---
    Agent Hughes... Your orders, Sir?
[01:52] ---
    Wait a moment. What is this article?
[01:54] ---
    This isn't the way I like to do things!
[01:58] ---
    Next time, wait for my approval.
[02:01] ---
    Yes, Sir.
[02:02] ---
    Okay. We'll head in the front door.
[02:05] ---
    But...
[02:06] ---
    It'll be fine.
[02:12] ---
    Mr. Jones!
[02:18] ---
    Whaddaya want so early?
[02:22] ---
    We're from the NIA. This is Joesph
    Carter Jones's house, correct?
[02:27] ---
    Yeah... So?
[02:29] ---
    We need to talk. Is he home?
[02:33] ---
    Dunno. Go and check for yourself.
[02:37] ---
    In that case, we'll be happy to.
[03:10] ---
    I don't see him!
[03:17] ---
    Contact the local authorities.
[03:19] ---
    Send out pictures of the boy and his
    accomplice to be searched for over a wide area.
[03:22] ---
    Cordon off all major roadways and
    stake out checkpoints at all the interchanges!
[03:26] ---
    Seal off Center City!
[03:40] ---
    I'm home!
[03:42] ---
    Oh, Joey!
[03:44] ---
    You were out quite late.
[03:46] ---
    Yeah, well...
[03:49] ---
    So how'd it go, you little bugger!
[03:52] ---
    How'd it go?
[03:53] ---
    Don't play dumb!
[03:56] ---
    You were out on a date, right?
[03:58] ---
    Had a lot of fun all night long, did we?
[04:01] ---
    Oww!
[04:06] ---
    You two sure get along.
[04:07] ---
    Grandma, that's not it!
[04:11] ---
    She's got me in a headlock!
[04:24] ---
    Good night...
[04:26] ---
    Lina.
[04:41] ---
    Hello. This is the Jones residence...
[04:44] ---
    Joey, is that you? It's Alan Smithee.
[04:47] ---
    Professor Denton?
[04:49] ---
    Oh, Alan, right!
[04:50] ---
    What's up?
[04:51] ---
    You see, tomorrow's the date!
[04:55] ---
    That's the emergency evacuation code!
[04:57] ---
    Did you hear me?
[04:58] ---
    R-Right! So, where's the party at?
[05:01] ---
    The movie opens in October.
[05:04] ---
    Oh, and this is off-the-record.
[05:07] ---
    Got it?
[05:08] ---
    Right.
[05:08] ---
    So, please try to avoid being seen by anyone.
[05:12] ---
    You wouldn't want to bother the other
    people in the neighborhood, right?
[05:42] ---
    Sis! Hey, Sis!
[05:50] ---
    What's all the racket about?
[05:52] ---
    Sis, I have something important
    I need to talk about.
[06:16] ---
    Beware of Global Warming!
[06:19] ---
    Eliminate greenhouse gases,
    and protect our Earth!
[06:23] ---
    Thank you. I'm heading out, Sis.
[06:23] ---
    The glaciers and north pole are melting!
[06:26] ---
    And the temperature is going up!
[06:28] ---
    The sea level is also rising!
[06:38] ---
    Looks like you made it here safely.
[06:40] ---
    Professor Denton! Psy, too!
[06:44] ---
    Do you understand the situation?
[06:46] ---
    Your phone call was the emergency
    evacuation code, but...
[06:50] ---
    Yeah, that worked pretty well.
[06:53] ---
    I'm sure the people on the
    wiretaps are totally confused.
[06:56] ---
    There was a car parked outside as well.
[07:00] ---
    Did something happen?
[07:01] ---
    It started with the out-of-control
    robot incident yesterday.
[07:05] ---
    Then, that was...
[07:07] ---
    Your connection to Heroman has
    been revealed to the government.
[07:11] ---
    I bet they've been investigating
    for quite a while.
[07:15] ---
    So that's why they set
    up that bogus accident!
[07:18] ---
    Well, that's that.
[07:20] ---
    Whoa there, buddy! What
    are you talking about?
[07:23] ---
    The out-of-control robot yesterday, and
    the building accident were both set-ups!
[07:28] ---
    All for the purpose of uncovering
    Heroman's true identity.
[07:33] ---
    Um, Professor Denton...
[07:36] ---
    Why don't we explain the circumstances
    to the people from the government?
[07:38] ---
    If we do that, then...
[07:39] ---
    It's no use.
[07:41] ---
    If they were interested in talking, then
    they wouldn't have put out this report.
[07:43] ---
    Report?
[07:45] ---
    I guess someone didn't watch the news.
[07:51] ---
    According to the report on
    the out-of-control robot,
[07:55] ---
    Heroman attacked the
    reconstruction equipment.
[07:57] ---
    They covered it up as the robot
    counterattacking and driving away Heroman.
[08:03] ---
    They seriously made out
    Heroman to be the bad guy.
[08:05] ---
    Oh, no!
[08:09] ---
    Give me a break! It's all
    the government's damn plot!
[08:14] ---
    This isn't right!
[08:15] ---
    Heroman didn't do anything bad!
[08:20] ---
    This isn't child's play.
[08:25] ---
    The government has officially labeled
    Heroman as a remnant of the Skrugg.
[08:32] ---
    What should I do now?
[08:35] ---
    You should leave the city.
[08:38] ---
    The government goons are probably pulling
    out all the stops to capture you and Heroman.
[08:43] ---
    You have to get away from here as quickly as-
[08:45] ---
    You've got to be kidding me!
[08:48] ---
    Joey saved Center City from the Skrugg!
[08:52] ---
    He's a hero!
[08:54] ---
    So what were we fighting for then?
[08:57] ---
    I don't even know anymore!
[09:00] ---
    There is still a chance to escape!
[09:02] ---
    Or rather, I'd like to believe there is.
[09:04] ---
    What's with the uncertainty?
[09:08] ---
    I don't want to leave this city.
[09:11] ---
    I know how you feel.
[09:13] ---
    But if you're caught here, it's game over.
[09:15] ---
    If you can at least escape,
[09:17] ---
    you can find a way to prove your innocence!
[09:23] ---
    There's no other way right now.
[09:26] ---
    Understand, Joey?
[09:34] ---
    Ah, sure I get it.
[09:36] ---
    So we all up and skedaddle?
[09:41] ---
    We're in this together, after all.
[09:43] ---
    Wait, you can't!
[09:45] ---
    Come on, Joey. Don't make
    me say it twice, sheesh.
[09:51] ---
    Psy...
[09:55] ---
    Then, shall we go?
[10:16] ---
    What are we going to do now?
[10:18] ---
    I have an eccentric scientist friend of mine.
[10:21] ---
    He hates other people
    and lives like a hermit.
[10:24] ---
    He's the perfect person to hide out with.
[10:28] ---
    Well, if he's a friend of yours...
[10:30] ---
    He lives deep in the mountains of Nevada.
[10:33] ---
    We've got to run away there somehow.
[10:39] ---
    So to do that we have
    to bust out of Center City
[10:42] ---
    while it's being staked
    out from top to bottom.
[11:04] ---
    What's with this?
[11:06] ---
    Don't complain. It's orders
    from the government.
[11:10] ---
    Our reporting and investigation was perfect!
[11:13] ---
    So why are they saying something like this?
[11:15] ---
    I'm sure it's something very important.
[11:18] ---
    We're talking about aliens here, after all.
[11:20] ---
    I... don't like this.
[11:24] ---
    Well, neither do I.
[11:26] ---
    Is that really how you feel?
[11:28] ---
    Yeah, of course I do.
[11:30] ---
    It makes me shiver seeing how they've
    twisted that footage I shot of the truth.
[11:40] ---
    The truth, huh?
[11:50] ---
    Just so you know, I ain't talkin'.
[11:54] ---
    But before we get to that, would you
    mind explaining what's going on?
[11:58] ---
    Holly Jones, the boy's older sister.
[12:01] ---
    You've only recently returned to Center City.
[12:04] ---
    It seems like you were living in New
    York trying to be a musician beforehand.
[12:08] ---
    How do you know all that?
[12:14] ---
    You're quite the easy one to read.
[12:20] ---
    Do you know anything about Joey's secret?
[12:24] ---
    Secret?
[12:25] ---
    What are you talking about?
[12:27] ---
    I see. Then, on to the next question.
[12:31] ---
    What's Joey like?
[12:34] ---
    Just like I asked.
[12:37] ---
    Don't read too much into it.
    Will you tell me about him?
[12:44] ---
    I'm sorry for waking you up
    in the middle of the night.
[12:48] ---
    What time is it?
[12:50] ---
    I can't tell you the details.
[12:53] ---
    But I might not be able to
    come back for a little while.
[12:56] ---
    What? Are you going somewhere?
[13:00] ---
    Please take care of Grandma, okay?
[13:04] ---
    Joey...
[13:06] ---
    You're...
[13:07] ---
    There's not much time. I have to go.
[13:12] ---
    Is there anything I can do?
[13:14] ---
    Thanks. But I don't want to get you involved.
[13:18] ---
    You're my little brother.
    What's with all the secrets?
[13:25] ---
    Joey's a good kid.
[13:51] ---
    How is it?
[13:52] ---
    Nope. This road's no good either.
[13:56] ---
    There are checkpoints everywhere.
[13:59] ---
    Um...
[14:01] ---
    Maybe it'd be better for me to go alone.
[14:04] ---
    I can't get everyone involved...
[14:06] ---
    That's not the problem!
[14:10] ---
    Well, it's true that you might be
    able to escape more easily on your own.
[14:14] ---
    But it'd be better to have a car.
[14:17] ---
    And you've got to have your friends
    with you for encouragement, right?
[14:21] ---
    You think you can handle
    this all by yourself?
[14:24] ---
    Psy...
[14:25] ---
    Prof. Denton...
[14:27] ---
    Professor, we've got to slip
    out of this city somehow.
[14:30] ---
    Yeah, I know!
[14:32] ---
    But, how?
[14:35] ---
    Well, we'll be needing you
    and Heroman's power for that.
[14:42] ---
    Report.
[14:44] ---
    Right. We have not yet found them.
[14:46] ---
    However we have staked out all the highways
    and interstates with checkpoints.
[14:51] ---
    Not a single ant could slip by.
[14:54] ---
    That'd be nice if it were true.
[14:57] ---
    We're up against some
    super advanced technology.
[14:59] ---
    We don't know how much of our
    common knowledge will apply.
[15:04] ---
    Joey's older sister didn't know anything.
[15:07] ---
    Which means there's no point in staying here.
[15:10] ---
    I wish I could get ahead
    of them, if it's possible.
[15:16] ---
    Got it? Here's the plan.
[15:19] ---
    All the main roads have checkpoints set up.
[15:23] ---
    First, Joey and Heroman
    cause a distraction here.
[15:27] ---
    If they do that, most of the unit
    in this area should transfer over.
[15:31] ---
    If Heroman appears, there's no reason
    to have the checkpoints anymore,
[15:35] ---
    But just in case we'll make another
    small distraction over here.
[15:40] ---
    While they are focused on that,
    we'll break through the checkpoint.
[15:44] ---
    Then Joey wraps things up,
[15:48] ---
    and we meet back up here.
[15:50] ---
    Got it.
[15:57] ---
    Then, let's begin!
[15:59] ---
    Right!
[16:14] ---
    Heroman... Engage!
[16:43] ---
    Why head toward the mountains?
[16:46] ---
    The Ghost is a mysterious existence
    with powers that we don't understand.
[16:51] ---
    But we do know it has some
    connection with that boy Joey.
[16:55] ---
    If it's connected to a human, than we can
    use human thinking to predict where it goes.
[17:00] ---
    So then...
[17:01] ---
    They wouldn't be in a
    city or the coast, right?
[17:04] ---
    There aren't enough places to hide.
[17:06] ---
    There's also a high probability of involving
    innocent people in battles there.
[17:11] ---
    I think he'd try very hard to avoid that.
[17:14] ---
    Emergency transmission!
[17:16] ---
    The Ghost has been spotted!
[17:18] ---
    Where?
[17:19] ---
    Off Route 6!
[17:21] ---
    In the mountains!
[17:32] ---
    Halt! Halt or we'll shoot!
[17:34] ---
    Idiot! Do you think it understands us?
[17:36] ---
    We've got standing orders to fire at will.
[17:39] ---
    Fire!
[17:49] ---
    Why'd it turn out like this?
[18:11] ---
    What are you doing? After it!
[18:20] ---
    Go! Hurry!
[18:23] ---
    It's begun.
[18:27] ---
    Professor, is everything set?
[18:29] ---
    Everything's A-OK.
[18:31] ---
    Now, time for us to start, too.
[18:39] ---
    All right, now!
[18:47] ---
    What's this?
[18:48] ---
    It's the enemy!
[18:52] ---
    How scary!
[18:54] ---
    Run for your lives!
[19:06] ---
    All right!
[19:07] ---
    We've successfully broken
    through the checkpoint!
[19:10] ---
    Joey, can you hear us?
[19:12] ---
    Yeah!
[19:13] ---
    All that's left is to meet up where we said.
[19:15] ---
    Got it.
[19:18] ---
    After him!
[19:29] ---
    Heroman...
[19:33] ---
    Magnecto!
[19:48] ---
    What the...
[20:04] ---
    All right. That should do it.
[20:10] ---
    Target acquired!
[20:12] ---
    Good! Pursue it!
[20:14] ---
    Don't let them get away!
[20:15] ---
    Heroman, over here!
[20:31] ---
    Should we attack?
[20:33] ---
    There's no need.
[20:35] ---
    We're faster than they are.
[20:37] ---
    Expand out the personnel on the ground.
[20:39] ---
    Encircle them so they have nowhere to escape.
[20:41] ---
    Roger.
[20:42] ---
    Attention, all personnel!
[20:44] ---
    The Ghost is currently at
    point 207 heading north!
[20:49] ---
    There's no end to this...
[20:51] ---
    What should I do?
[20:55] ---
    That's...
[20:57] ---
    Damn! It's an abandoned coal mine!
[21:06] ---
    Shoot! We lost them!
[21:08] ---
    Should we land?
[21:10] ---
    It'd be no use, considering who they are.
[21:13] ---
    He's probably already vanished.
[21:34] ---
    Joey, welcome back.
[21:38] ---
    Everyone!
[21:40] ---
    You were pretty late. You had us worried.
[21:42] ---
    Sorry, a lot of stuff came up.
[21:45] ---
    Well, I'm glad you're okay.
[21:47] ---
    We don't have much time. Let's
    hurry and get out of here.
[21:56] ---
    What's the matter, Joey?
[21:58] ---
    It's nothing! I'm coming.
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    Professor Denton!
[23:55] ---
    Psy!
[23:58] ---
    Under the dogged pursuit of NIA,
[24:01] ---
    his friends make themselves
    sacrifices, falling out...
[24:05] ---
    Joey continues to escape, in despair,
[24:08] ---
    when who else appears but...
[24:11] ---
    Next time on Heroman #14: Beleaguer!
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!
[24:18] ---
