[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] ---
    It was a totally breeze...
[01:47] ---
    Was it?
[02:02] ---
    Whoa, hold it there.
[02:03] ---
    If you wanna get through here you're
    gonna have to show us what you got.
[02:06] ---
    You got somethin' to say to that, huh?
[02:20] ---
    What's with you?
[02:21] ---
    You all scared?
[02:23] ---
    Then I'll...
[02:24] ---
    Don't!
[02:26] ---
    That guy's...
[02:28] ---
    ...dangerous.
[03:03] ---
    So Joey, what's Holly been doing since then?
[03:07] ---
    She's totally got a crush on Heroman.
[03:11] ---
    Heroman!
[03:13] ---
    My hero!
[03:14] ---
    I hope I can meet him again soon!
[03:16] ---
    ...like that.
[03:17] ---
    It's really annoying every day.
[03:19] ---
    Guess it won't be good for her to
    learn more than she already does.
[03:23] ---
    Yeah...
[03:24] ---
    Well, at least being able to worry about this
    stuff is proof that peaceful days are back.
[03:28] ---
    But someone, even now...
[03:32] ---
    ...is trying to wreck havoc on that peace!
[03:36] ---
    Professor?
[03:37] ---
    Did something happen?
[03:40] ---
    I think I should tell you
    the details after school.
[03:43] ---
    After class is over, meet up in my lab.
[03:47] ---
    Those three...
[03:50] ---
    They're plotting something again.
[04:00] ---
    Lina, sure you don't need to go to practice?
[04:03] ---
    Yup! I still have time, so
    don't worry about me. Go on.
[04:07] ---
    I see...
[04:09] ---
    Uh, where should I start?
[04:12] ---
    What? Did you do something bad again?
[04:16] ---
    O-O-Of course not!
[04:19] ---
    I w-would never...
[04:21] ---
    In that case...
[04:23] ---
    You should just talk normally...
[04:25] ---
    Right?
[04:27] ---
    Yes, of course.
[04:32] ---
    Fine, let me begin.
[04:33] ---
    It was this morning that I began
    to realize the situation.
[04:38] ---
    Last night, a research lab for a
    pharmaceutical company was attacked.
[04:43] ---
    A pharmaceutical company?
[04:45] ---
    Why would someone attack a place like that?
[04:48] ---
    And that's not all.
[04:50] ---
    I realized when I started looking into it,
[04:52] ---
    but there have been many facilities that
    have been attacked these past few weeks.
[04:59] ---
    All these places were attacked?
[05:01] ---
    Yes.
[05:02] ---
    The attacks happened at a
    university, a military industrial plant,
[05:05] ---
    a government facility, a
    foodstuffs maker, etc, etc...
[05:10] ---
    They seem completely random, however...
[05:40] ---
    I conjecture they were all
    attacked by the same individual.
[05:46] ---
    How do you know that?
[05:48] ---
    Before I tell you my conclusion, look at this.
[05:53] ---
    What is it?
[05:54] ---
    These are research labs that have stopped
    functioning due to accidents or some other reason.
[06:00] ---
    So, these too?
[06:01] ---
    It's not been revealed to the public,
[06:04] ---
    but I suspect these places have also
    been attacked by the same culprit.
[06:07] ---
    And?
[06:09] ---
    What's the link between these
    seemingly random labs?
[06:12] ---
    Indeed, exactly that!
[06:15] ---
    These incidents are all linked together.
[06:18] ---
    And that link is...
[06:20] ---
    It's...
[06:23] ---
    The legacy of the Skrugg!
[06:28] ---
    Stop your resistance!
[06:30] ---
    Give yourself up quietly!
[06:31] ---
    If you don't...
[06:46] ---
    Wait!
[06:59] ---
    The places that were attacked
    may have had different aims,
[07:01] ---
    but they were all researching leftover
    Skrugg weapons and wreckage.
[07:05] ---
    That's what I surmise.
[07:07] ---
    I see.
[07:08] ---
    Makes sense to me.
[07:10] ---
    So then, who is behind it?
[07:12] ---
    Well, I haven't yet...
[07:15] ---
    Do you have an idea what the next
    place to be attacked will be?
[07:18] ---
    Well, I haven't yet...
[07:20] ---
    Then, what do you know?
[07:24] ---
    Nothing in particular.
[07:27] ---
    Oh...
[07:29] ---
    Just telling us to be careful out there?
[07:32] ---
    Oh, no!
[07:33] ---
    I've got to get to practice!
[07:36] ---
    See everyone later!
[07:39] ---
    Sure...
[07:41] ---
    Later...
[07:46] ---
    So, Professor, is that all you wanted to say?
[07:48] ---
    No.
[07:52] ---
    Now I get to the good part.
[07:56] ---
    I didn't want to say it with
    Lina here, but there's more.
[07:59] ---
    I don't want to get her involved, see.
[08:02] ---
    You lied?
[08:04] ---
    Some lies are justified.
[08:05] ---
    Look at this.
[08:08] ---
    It's the map from before, right?
[08:09] ---
    If I connect them in the order of attacks...
[08:16] ---
    This is like a map of the culprit's movements.
[08:20] ---
    They are moving from the central
    US toward the west coast.
[08:23] ---
    You're right...
[08:25] ---
    And my guess for their next target is...
[08:33] ---
    Center City.
[08:40] ---
    We'd better start patrolling Center City then.
[08:44] ---
    Yeah.
[08:45] ---
    And shouldn't we tell the old dude at the NIA?
[08:48] ---
    Um, you guys...
[08:49] ---
    It'd be easiest to ask Mr. Hughes to look into
    the places that might be researching the Skrugg.
[08:54] ---
    Uh, I'm trying to tell you...
[08:55] ---
    Yeah, you're right.
[08:57] ---
    You guys!
[08:59] ---
    Listen!
[09:01] ---
    I actually have a guess to
    where they'll be attacking.
[09:07] ---
    Where?
[09:09] ---
    Here.
[09:10] ---
    Yup, right here.
[09:19] ---
    Hey now...
[09:21] ---
    You kept it?
[09:23] ---
    Yeah, my bad...
[09:26] ---
    So you want us to protect
    the scrap you picked up?
[09:29] ---
    But won't this be good in the end?
[09:32] ---
    With this we can lure out the culprit!
[09:34] ---
    Do you have any proof they'll be coming here?
[09:38] ---
    That's not a problem.
[09:40] ---
    Just think about it.
[09:42] ---
    All the research labs the culprit
    attacked must have been top secret.
[09:46] ---
    But they found out about them!
[09:50] ---
    So you mean...
[09:53] ---
    Exactly!
[09:54] ---
    They must have some special ability
    that lets them discover the locations!
[10:00] ---
    They always attack at night.
[10:03] ---
    We'll go over the specifics until then.
[10:06] ---
    Right!
[10:06] ---
    Got it.
[10:23] ---
    The multi-purpose hall?
[10:24] ---
    Why here?
[10:26] ---
    We won't get the public involved
    no matter what happens here.
[10:32] ---
    I sent the school a note that
    we were doing an experiment.
[10:35] ---
    We don't need to worry
    about the security guards.
[10:38] ---
    But then don't we need to keep a lookout?
[10:41] ---
    Don't worry.
[10:43] ---
    I've installed security sensors at
    various locations around the school.
[10:47] ---
    If the culprit breaks in, we should
    get a signal on this terminal.
[10:52] ---
    So all that's left is to wait?
[10:55] ---
    That's right.
[11:07] ---
    Oh, gimme that!
[11:13] ---
    Hurry up and play, Professor.
[11:22] ---
    It's here!
[11:25] ---
    What is it?
[11:26] ---
    Calm down!
[11:27] ---
    Calm down!
[11:28] ---
    First, everyone calm down.
[11:30] ---
    Take your own advice, damn it.
[11:32] ---
    So, what'll we do?
[11:34] ---
    Well...
[11:37] ---
    I'll go!
[11:39] ---
    I'd rather not damage the school...
[11:41] ---
    I'll contact you if anything happens.
[11:44] ---
    Got it.
[11:45] ---
    Don't do anything crazy.
[11:47] ---
    Right.
[12:12] ---
    Heroman... Engage!
[12:41] ---
    It's up here...
[12:43] ---
    Round the corner and then...
[12:54] ---
    We'll capture them, and drag them out at once!
[13:05] ---
    You're...
[13:19] ---
    Joey?
[13:22] ---
    Ms. Collins?
[13:24] ---
    What are you doing here, Joey?
[13:28] ---
    And look at that toy on your arm.
[13:31] ---
    What?
[13:32] ---
    I mean... So you're the culprit, Ms. Collins?
[13:37] ---
    Culprit?
[13:38] ---
    What are you talking about?
[13:40] ---
    Uh, about the Skrugg...
[13:42] ---
    I figured you guys were up to something
    and came to stop you, that's what.
[13:48] ---
    You three are always doing strange
    experiments or sneaking around outside...
[13:53] ---
    It's gone far enough!
[13:55] ---
    You're always causing problems.
[13:58] ---
    I tell you to stop, but you
    refuse to listen.... Why?
[14:02] ---
    Professor Denton's an adult, too...
[14:05] ---
    He really needs to stop doing
    these sorts of things.
[14:08] ---
    Are you listening, Joey?
[14:09] ---
    Uh, right!
[14:11] ---
    What?
[14:12] ---
    Are you hiding something?
[14:13] ---
    No, nothing at all!
[14:16] ---
    What are you talking about?
[14:19] ---
    There's nothing there.
[14:24] ---
    Well, of course!
[14:25] ---
    You're weird, Joey.
[14:36] ---
    What was that sound?
[14:38] ---
    The experiment!
[14:39] ---
    He wanted to show the nature of the relationship
    between subliminal stimuli and the hall!
[14:44] ---
    It seems like the experiment is dangerous
    though, so I came to stop him!
[14:47] ---
    I knew it.
[14:49] ---
    Fine, then I will...
[14:50] ---
    No!
[14:51] ---
    It might be dangerous!
[14:53] ---
    That's even more reason
    for me not to let you go!
[14:56] ---
    No, I mean it might be dangerous for you!
[15:00] ---
    For me?
[15:01] ---
    Anyway, I'll take responsibility
    and bring the two back with me!
[15:05] ---
    Ms. Collins, wait here!
[15:08] ---
    Got it?!
[15:10] ---
    I'm going now!
[15:21] ---
    What a handful they are.
[15:29] ---
    T-There it is!
[15:30] ---
    Hey, who are you?
[15:38] ---
    Hey! Can you hear me?
[15:42] ---
    I've got a bad feeling about this...
[15:45] ---
    I knew it.
[15:46] ---
    A Skrugg?
[15:47] ---
    Professor?
[15:49] ---
    Right!
[15:51] ---
    Always strike first!
[15:55] ---
    Take this!
[16:06] ---
    Professor!
[16:07] ---
    Got it!
[16:08] ---
    It's after this!
[16:12] ---
    Don't give it up, no matter what!
[16:20] ---
    Professor!
[16:50] ---
    Joey, you're late!
[16:54] ---
    Sorry, I had to deal with stuff.
[17:01] ---
    Heroman...
[17:04] ---
    Attack!
[17:40] ---
    Heroman!
[17:48] ---
    Joey!
[18:11] ---
    That's...
[18:15] ---
    Will!
[18:16] ---
    Why?
[18:18] ---
    I thought you regained your humanity...
[18:23] ---
    Where have you been all this time?
[18:25] ---
    Everyone was worried about you!
[18:27] ---
    Especially Lina!
[18:34] ---
    Joey!
[18:43] ---
    Psy!
[18:48] ---
    Will...
[18:54] ---
    Why do you hesitate?
[19:00] ---
    I am no longer human!
[19:03] ---
    Stop it!
[19:04] ---
    Will!
[19:28] ---
    Why?
[19:29] ---
    Why are you doing this?
[19:31] ---
    What are you attacking humans for?
[19:34] ---
    Didn't you return to the old Will?
[19:37] ---
    What do you know?
[19:40] ---
    You all should keep on
    having fun playing "hero."
[19:46] ---
    Playing hero?
[19:48] ---
    Sometimes you have to accept the bitter reality.
[19:50] ---
    Forced to fight even when you
    know what awaits you afterwards.
[19:56] ---
    That's why...
[19:58] ---
    I'm fighting to protect what's important to me!
[20:02] ---
    If you are the light, then I am the darkness.
[20:08] ---
    The inhuman existence that
    crawls through the darkness...
[20:13] ---
    I cannot allow traces of the Skrugg
    to be left on this planet.
[20:17] ---
    So I will destroy them all!
[20:22] ---
    What's the meaning behind it?
[20:25] ---
    What you see with your eyes is not everything.
[20:28] ---
    Things have already begun to
    move underneath the surface.
[20:32] ---
    Now listen.
[20:33] ---
    The next time you try and get in my way...
[20:36] ---
    I will not hold back, no matter who you are!
[20:38] ---
    Remember that well!
[21:11] ---
    I see...
[21:15] ---
    To think that Will was actually behind it all.
[21:18] ---
    What'll we do now?
[21:20] ---
    If we leave him be, the number
    of victims will only increase.
[21:24] ---
    Sure, but choosing to fight is
    just too difficult a choice.
[21:30] ---
    We can't leave him alone, but we
    can't fight against Will either.
[21:36] ---
    This is a hard problem.
[21:40] ---
    But, I can say this.
[21:45] ---
    We cannot run away.
[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:
[23:52] ---
    The beach!
[23:53] ---
    And where there's a beach, there's sunlight!
[23:55] ---
    Where there's sunlight, there's summer!
[23:56] ---
    And when there's summer...
[24:00] ---
    Thanks to Hughes, Joey and the others were
    invited to a private government beach.
[24:05] ---
    Summer memories...
[24:07] ---
    A dazzling summer vacation...
[24:09] ---
    But what awaits them when they get there?
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #18: Separation.
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!
