[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.
[01:38] ---
    Hey Dad, can I eat the candy Grandma gave me?
[01:42] ---
    No snacks before bedtime, remember?
[01:44] ---
    Aw, come on... Just one?
[01:47] ---
    No means no.
[01:48] ---
    Come on, Dad, please!
[01:54] ---
    Don't tell your mother, okay?
[01:55] ---
    Yay!
[01:58] ---
    Dad, I think I just saw something...
[02:02] ---
    Oh yeah... There are a lot
    of deer around these parts.
[02:05] ---
    Or maybe it's a... monster?
[02:09] ---
    There's nothing to worry
    about! Dad's here, right?
[02:12] ---
    If a monster appears, then you'll beat it up?
[02:16] ---
    You got that right!
[02:17] ---
    A monster or two ain't nothing
    for me to handle.
[02:33] ---
    Papa...
[02:38] ---
    It's okay. It'll be okay...
[02:42] ---
    Stay in the car.
[02:43] ---
    Got it?
[02:49] ---
    I'm pretty sure someone was here...
[02:52] ---
    Dad!
[03:11] ---
    Oh sure, this is so how I
    want to spend my weekend...
[03:14] ---
    All us guys getting together
    for some gardening?
[03:17] ---
    He only said we were going for a
    drive! He totally tricked us...
[03:21] ---
    The clear blue sky, the wide open land, the
    sweat dripping from your foreheads...
[03:27] ---
    I think this is the perfect way
    for youth to spend their weekend.
[03:30] ---
    Easy for you to say!
[03:32] ---
    What are you researching this time?
[03:34] ---
    Why are we collecting soil samples?
[03:36] ---
    Do you know about the abductions that
    have been happening in Center City?
[03:40] ---
    Abductions?
[03:43] ---
    Over the past month a ton of animals,
[03:45] ---
    have been attacked and gone missing,
    from cows to horses and even pet dogs.
[03:52] ---
    At this point, no clues or motive have
    been discovered about who's responsible.
[03:58] ---
    Why would someone attack animals?
[04:00] ---
    Some people are just cruel like that.
[04:02] ---
    But this time, it's people
    that've gone missing.
[04:06] ---
    Five people in a row.
[04:09] ---
    A man disappeared three days ago
    after a strange car accident.
[04:13] ---
    Riiight around here...
[04:16] ---
    So what does this incident
    have to do with the soil?
[04:20] ---
    That soil is an important witness.
[04:24] ---
    It just might tell us who the culprit is.
[04:26] ---
    Huh?
[04:28] ---
    It's already been three days
    since it happened, right?
[04:31] ---
    Even if there is some evidence left, the
    wind would have carried it away somewhere.
[04:37] ---
    What did you just say?
[04:39] ---
    You just said "carried away," didn't you?
[04:42] ---
    That's it! That's what connects everything!
[04:53] ---
    Hurry up and get in!
[04:54] ---
    We've got to do one more
    place before the sun sets!
[04:59] ---
    If we take a detour I'll be late for work!
[05:01] ---
    So will I!
[05:03] ---
    Then you guys are on your own!
[05:10] ---
    S-So, we're walking back?
[05:13] ---
    What a jerk!
[05:19] ---
    It sounds like some sort of joke,
[05:21] ---
    but I'm tellin' the truth, for real!
[05:23] ---
    He couldn't even go to the bathroom
    by himself at night until he was 9!
[05:27] ---
    I tried kicking the door once,
    and he was so scared he fainted!
[05:32] ---
    Isn't it hilarious?
[05:34] ---
    Don't know who he takes after, but
    he's like a teensy-weensy acorn!
[05:38] ---
    An acorn?
[05:39] ---
    Yeah, a tiny one!
[05:40] ---
    Tiny Joey and his tiny courage!
[05:42] ---
    Who are you talking to, Sis?
[05:46] ---
    Some pretty blond what's-her-name...
[05:50] ---
    Hey!
[05:52] ---
    Hello, Lina?
[05:53] ---
    Sorry for calling you so late.
[05:55] ---
    Your sister was telling me
    a lot about you, Joey.
[05:59] ---
    No, no! That was our neighborhood drunk!
[06:02] ---
    I'm sober, damn it!
[06:04] ---
    Why are you getting in
    the way? Get outta here!
[06:07] ---
    I'm being serious, man.
[06:09] ---
    There ain't even fairy tales about
    acorns gettin' cheerleaders.
[06:14] ---
    I'm sorry, Lina...
[06:16] ---
    I'm okay.
[06:17] ---
    You weren't at school, so I was
    worried. Did something happen?
[06:23] ---
    Well...
[06:25] ---
    There've been those abductions
    recently, you know?
[06:29] ---
    My Dad said it's dangerous, and
    won't let me out of the house.
[06:32] ---
    Oh, so that's why.
[06:34] ---
    Hey, has Professor Denton returned yet?
[06:36] ---
    No... It's been three days
    since we split up, too...
[06:40] ---
    What? He still hasn't come back?
[06:43] ---
    No...
[06:44] ---
    Tomorrow's Saturday, so
    I'll go look for him with Psy.
[06:47] ---
    I'll help too! I think I
    could slip out for a bit...
[06:51] ---
    I think it's better for you to
    listen to your parents right now.
[06:54] ---
    Leave this to us.
[06:56] ---
    But...
[06:57] ---
    No... I want to see you, Joey.
[07:07] ---
    So do I...
[07:10] ---
    Hey, hey, hey!
[07:12] ---
    Explain to me what's going on here?
[07:15] ---
    Why is the hedgehog sitting
    there drinking coffee?
[07:18] ---
    I can't help it! She came in on her own!
[07:22] ---
    Waiter!
[07:23] ---
    Yes?
[07:24] ---
    Fill me up.
[07:25] ---
    And don't be stingy about it.
[07:27] ---
    I want it so strong I'm hopping on
    the stools and my head explodes!
[07:30] ---
    As you wish...
[07:32] ---
    And five lumps of sugar.
[07:33] ---
    Right...
[07:35] ---
    Um... Are you planning on coming
    with us to look for the Professor?
[07:42] ---
    Frankly, I think this is a bigger
    problem then you guys can handle.
[07:45] ---
    It's an extremely complex case.
[07:48] ---
    Well, things just went from
    complex to seriously messed up...
[07:53] ---
    Where did the Professor disappear to?
[07:55] ---
    All we know is that he was chasing
    after the abduction cases.
[07:58] ---
    He must have gotten a hold
    of a clue to the culprit!
[08:02] ---
    That's why he disappeared!
[08:04] ---
    Please, don't jinx things like that!
[08:06] ---
    Don't underestimate your
    sister's sixth sense.
[08:08] ---
    I found those underwear
    you hid after your "accident"
[08:10] ---
    and that test you scored a zero on, remember?
[08:16] ---
    Please don't tell people about that!
[08:18] ---
    Must be hard having a
    detective in the family.
[08:22] ---
    But these incidents really are a mystery...
[08:24] ---
    They've been so frequent,
[08:26] ---
    but no witnesses or evidence has been found.
[08:30] ---
    Is that even possible?
[08:32] ---
    Might be the work of psychics...
[08:34] ---
    No way...
[08:35] ---
    I wouldn't make fun of psychic
    powers if I were you!
[08:38] ---
    I don't know the details, but I know
    one important thing about the culprit.
[08:44] ---
    Use your brains a bit, sheesh!
[08:47] ---
    Listen. Cows disappeared, right?
[08:50] ---
    Whoever it is, they're some
    macho-man that can carry a cow!
[08:54] ---
    A macho-man?
[08:59] ---
    All right then, let's
    get to catching the guy!
[09:09] ---
    He split up from you guys,
    and took off in his RV.
[09:13] ---
    He was heading in the
    direction of this beach...
[09:16] ---
    We just might run into the culprit here.
[09:20] ---
    But before that...
[09:21] ---
    Why do we...
[09:23] ---
    ...have to dress up in
    these ridiculous outfits?
[09:27] ---
    You know, to get in the spirit.
[09:30] ---
    The spirit? But look at us!
[09:33] ---
    Yeah! The culprit will know
    we're detectives immediately!
[09:36] ---
    T-That's not what I meant...
[09:38] ---
    Stop your complainin'. We're
    starting the investigation.
[09:41] ---
    Time to interrogate people whether they've
    seen a suspicious macho-man around here!
[09:48] ---
    Sis!
[09:49] ---
    The Professor might be adrift
    on the sea about now.
[09:53] ---
    I'll go "look" for him a bit.
[10:00] ---
    She just came to play around?
[10:04] ---
    I don't think this is going to help any.
[10:06] ---
    There are macho-men all over the place here.
[10:10] ---
    Hey, Joey... Look at that.
[10:18] ---
    Interrogating people?
    Sounds like a good idea to me...
[10:21] ---
    Psy, take this more seriously!
[10:30] ---
    I feel like we're getting farther away
    from the Professor by the second.
[10:38] ---
    Galapagos...
[10:40] ---
    What the heck kind of map were you using?
[10:43] ---
    What're you slacking off for?
[10:48] ---
    I've found out where the culprit is.
[10:51] ---
    You have?
[11:04] ---
    So you're the brats who've
    been sniffing around about me.
[11:08] ---
    We heard rumors that you're the
    strongest dude in Center City...
[11:14] ---
    Yeah? And what if I am?
[11:16] ---
    We'd like to ask you some questions.
[11:19] ---
    You recognize the guy in this picture?
[11:22] ---
    What? You guys are friends with Matthew?
[11:25] ---
    The Professor came to this bar?
[11:28] ---
    Great, we've picked up his trail.
[11:30] ---
    He's really a strange fellow, that one...
[11:34] ---
    All he does is drink Coke
    and eat marshmallows.
[11:36] ---
    He must think this place is
    a coffee shop or something.
[11:40] ---
    And he forgot to tip even
    though he wasn't drunk.
[11:42] ---
    Yeah, that sounds like him.
[11:44] ---
    Caught up in some money troubles?
[11:46] ---
    That could be the motive
    for a criminal act...
[11:49] ---
    So? You saying we had something do with this?
[11:54] ---
    You're the culprit who
    attacked the Professor!
[11:57] ---
    W-We have to turn in a report
    to the Professor, see!
[12:01] ---
    Yes, yes! We're studying people
    strong enough to lift cows!
[12:07] ---
    Well that sounds interesting. Let me try.
[12:23] ---
    What the hell do you think you're
    doing to my little brother?
[12:37] ---
    He got beat by a girl. Nothin' but talk.
[12:40] ---
    Can't be him, then.
[12:42] ---
    You're just scarier than a bull, that's all!
[12:45] ---
    Come on! Playing detective
    isn't getting us anywhere!
[12:48] ---
    While we're doing this, the Professor is...
[12:51] ---
    Don't be in such a rush. I've
    figured out one thing so far.
[12:54] ---
    Really?
[12:55] ---
    Yeah...
[12:57] ---
    You get hungry when you use your head.
[13:08] ---
    Um, I really don't think we should
    be leisurely drinking coffee...
[13:12] ---
    Shuddap already. Some coffee
    ain't gonna kill anyone.
[13:15] ---
    How about being grateful I'm
    helping you out for free?
[13:17] ---
    See? I told you not to let
    Holly out of her cage!
[13:24] ---
    What are you talking about, "helping?"
[13:27] ---
    You've always been like this!
[13:29] ---
    You just have fun teasing
    us and dragging us around!
[13:32] ---
    Do you understand how inconsiderate it is
    to play around when there's a person missing?
[13:36] ---
    You keep complaining like that and
    you'll turn into a cow yourself.
[13:40] ---
    Here.
[13:42] ---
    This is...
[13:43] ---
    Yeah...
[13:45] ---
    Sleeping beauty has woken up.
[13:49] ---
    Um...
[13:51] ---
    Why do we...
[13:53] ---
    ...have to wear these clothes?
[13:57] ---
    It's a special room, so
    the security is tight.
[14:00] ---
    We'll get through it by saying
    you two are her friends.
[14:03] ---
    Got it?
[14:08] ---
    Who are you?
[14:09] ---
    Some friends for a visit!
[14:13] ---
    Doesn't this look even more suspicious?
[14:15] ---
    Don't you worry! You look
    like a cute girl to me!
[14:20] ---
    But, why?!
[14:22] ---
    I'm sure this is just temporary.
    She'll recover them in no time.
[14:28] ---
    Please, stay calm.
[14:38] ---
    P-Pardon us...
[14:41] ---
    We guys, er, girls... We
    want to be your friend!
[14:46] ---
    'Kay?
[14:47] ---
    Yes, we do!
[14:55] ---
    Um...
[15:01] ---
    We brought you a present. Would you like one?
[15:05] ---
    You guys came to ask
    about my Dad, didn't you?
[15:09] ---
    But, I don't remember anything.
[15:12] ---
    Psy, she...
[15:14] ---
    Has she lost her memories?
[15:17] ---
    Okay, time for your exam!
[15:19] ---
    You good-for-nothings beat it already.
[15:23] ---
    What's the matter? Why the long face?
[15:25] ---
    You look worse than my 80 year old granny!
[15:29] ---
    A doggy?
[15:30] ---
    My name is Holly. Nice to meet you.
[15:33] ---
    Okay...
[15:34] ---
    When I was your age, I once wore
    my pajamas for a whole week.
[15:39] ---
    I was bored and all alone,
    so I played like this.
[15:44] ---
    A whole week?
[15:46] ---
    You sleepyhead!
[15:49] ---
    Yeah...
[15:50] ---
    Did you have scary dreams?
[15:54] ---
    Dreams?
[15:55] ---
    Like, a dream where a demon appears...
[16:00] ---
    A demon? What kind of demon?
[16:03] ---
    Its eyes flash bright red,
[16:06] ---
    and then it attacks people.
[16:08] ---
    And it has super sharp claws...
[16:12] ---
    Then it... to my Dad...
[16:15] ---
    You remember?
[16:16] ---
    Please tell us, what happened to your Dad?
[16:18] ---
    That's enough...
[16:22] ---
    Don't worry, it was just a dream.
[16:24] ---
    Your Dad'll be coming back, just you wait.
[16:27] ---
    You know about Heroman?
[16:29] ---
    He'll KO any demon in one hit!
[16:34] ---
    Really?
[16:36] ---
    Yeah, he will.
[16:48] ---
    Maybe I should see an eye doctor...
[16:50] ---
    Holly looks like she's being serious.
[17:04] ---
    Where do you think you're going?
[17:07] ---
    Um... To a friend's place.
[17:09] ---
    Don't worry, I'll be right back.
[17:12] ---
    Return to your room this instant.
[17:14] ---
    Can't I go out, just for a little bit?
[17:17] ---
    I've been stuck here for three days!
[17:19] ---
    Then I will come with you.
[17:21] ---
    I'll get ready right away.
[17:23] ---
    No, no, that's okay...
[17:25] ---
    A friend you can't introduce to your
    parents? I can't approve of that.
[17:29] ---
    It's not that "Joey" boy
    I've heard about, is it?
[17:32] ---
    You don't know anything about Joey, Dad!
[17:35] ---
    Lina!
[17:37] ---
    Lina...
[17:40] ---
    Both me and your mother worry about you.
[17:43] ---
    With Will gone, if something
    were to happen to you...
[17:51] ---
    Dad...
[18:02] ---
    Back to square one, I guess.
[18:04] ---
    We're quite literally back where we started.
[18:09] ---
    Yeah, no complaining.
[18:10] ---
    They say the criminal always returns
    to the scene of the crime, right?
[18:14] ---
    We'll stake the place out, and the
    culprit is sure to turn up!
[18:17] ---
    Wait, you plan to stay here how long?
[18:20] ---
    How long? You expect me to
    just give up empty-handed?
[18:25] ---
    What'll we do, Joey? Now's
    our chance to escape...
[18:28] ---
    Okay. Run on a count of three...
[18:31] ---
    One...
[18:31] ---
    Two...
[18:32] ---
    Three!
[18:33] ---
    Hey boneheads!
[18:36] ---
    The Professor was investigating
    the soil here, right?
[18:39] ---
    Yeah, so?
[18:43] ---
    Look, the plant's dead.
[18:44] ---
    Don't you think that's odd?
[18:46] ---
    What do you mean?
[18:50] ---
    I know the basic outline of the incidents
    and the status of the investigation.
[18:53] ---
    But why should we get involved
    in this string of abductions?
[18:57] ---
    Isn't this a job for the police?
[18:59] ---
    We've been notified by the government
    to help in the investigation.
[19:04] ---
    This is...
[19:05] ---
    Quite the eye opener, yes?
[19:11] ---
    Rock daisies...
[19:14] ---
    It's a very hardy flower that
    can even survive in the desert.
[19:17] ---
    Why would it have died?
[19:19] ---
    You sure know a lot. Did
    you work at a flower shop?
[19:26] ---
    My mother loved this flower.
[19:29] ---
    I heard that my dad would bring
    them back with him from work a lot.
[19:37] ---
    Man, I'm starving. Let's get some dinner.
[19:41] ---
    Your treat, Joey!
[19:43] ---
    Why me?
[19:45] ---
    Sis!
[19:51] ---
    Holly!
[19:52] ---
    Sis!
[19:58] ---
    Will?
[20:05] ---
    Psy, take care of Holly.
[20:07] ---
    Leave her to me!
[20:24] ---
    Heroman...
[20:27] ---
    Engage!
[20:38] ---
    Will, is that you?
[20:40] ---
    Are you the one who
    attacked Professor Denton?
[20:44] ---
    Answer me!
[20:51] ---
    Heroman...
[20:54] ---
    Attack!
[21:14] ---
    After him, Heroman!
[21:22] ---
    Where'd he go?
[21:25] ---
    Ow...
[21:26] ---
    You're awake?
[21:30] ---
    Where's Joey?
[21:31] ---
    Don't worry. We should just stay here.
[21:34] ---
    What's that supposed to mean?
[21:36] ---
    You're just gonna leave
    Joey out there, alone?
[21:38] ---
    N-No! He's going after the...
[21:41] ---
    Well... Whatever, Joey's fine!
[21:43] ---
    I can't believe you, Psy! And
    you call yourself his friend!
[21:49] ---
    Wait, Holly! Don't go that way!
[21:53] ---
    Damn it...
[21:54] ---
    Joey!
[21:56] ---
    Joey!
[21:58] ---
    Joey!
[21:59] ---
    Where are you, Joey?
[22:02] ---
    Just you wait, I'm coming to save you!
[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!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    Sis, where are you? Where did you go?
[23:56] ---
    Sis!
[23:59] ---
    It seemed like Joey and the gang's
    investigation had gotten to the bottom of it,
[24:02] ---
    but now, even Holly has gone missing.
[24:05] ---
    Joey begins to walk the path of truth in
    order to take back that which is dear to him.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #21: Emotion.
[24:16] ---
    Heroman... Attack!
