**[00:05] Bernard**
His condition had stabilized,
**[00:07] Bernard**
so Chris was moved to a hospital
in the city two days ago.
**[00:12] Bernard**
However, upon reexamination,
they discovered he has a condition.
**[00:17] Leo**
A condition?
**[00:18] Bernard**
Yes.
**[00:19] Bernard**
He's showing symptoms very similar
to those of his sister, Michel.
**[00:24] Bernard**
The doctor thinks we need to let him
rest and see what happens.
**[00:30] Wendy**
It's Michel's condition?
**[00:32] Vijay**
That's strange.
**[00:33] Vijay**
Chris has "Calorie's High," so why...?
**[00:38] Leo**
It means this must be the price.
**[00:50] Finn**
The price of playing an X-Hand...
**[02:25] Finn**
Man, you scared me for a minute there.
**[02:28] Finn**
You were just a little
under the weather, right?
**[02:31] Chris**
I'm sorry, Finn.
**[02:33] Finn**
Wow, that's out of character.
**[02:35] Finn**
I wasn't really *that* worried—
**[02:38] Chris**
I'm really sorry.
**[02:44] Finn**
What gives?
**[02:46] Finn**
What's the meaning of this?
**[02:48] Chris**
Please.
**[02:54] Finn**
You want me to hold on to it for a while?
**[02:58] Chris**
I can't...
**[03:00] Finn**
You're coming back, right?!
**[03:06] Wendy**
Just like his dad,
Chris risked his life to help Michel.
**[03:11] Wendy**
And the price was...
**[03:13] Vijay**
He's taken on some of her symptoms
and now his power has weakened, perhaps?
**[03:27] Vijay**
Where are you headed?
**[03:28] Leo**
The president has summoned me.
**[03:30] Leo**
About what to do with Chris.
**[03:32] Finn**
I-I'll go with you.
**[03:33] Leo**
That'd only complicate things.
**[03:35] Leo**
Stay here.
**[03:36] Finn**
But...
**[03:43] Leo**
Leave this to me.
**[03:45] Leo**
I am High Card's... I'm your leader.
**[03:49] Finn**
Leo...
**[04:01] Ban**
Here lies a hero who tried to support
this nation at the expense of his own life.
**[04:08] Ban**
A hero...
**[04:09] Ban**
A politician who was gunned
down before realizing his goal.
**[04:14] Ban**
Ever since that day, the flowers
here have remained in bloom.
**[04:20] Ban**
Indeed, almost as if frozen in time.
**[04:25] Ban**
"Remember his bitter disappointment
and never forget what happened."
**[04:31] Ban**
That's what I get from it.
**[04:33] Zenon**
You're such a romantic, Boss.
**[04:35] Zenon**
So, are we sticking to the plan?
**[04:39] Ban**
Yes. I'll be counting on you.
**[04:58] Owen**
Come in.
**[05:01] Leo**
It's Leo.
**[05:02] Leo**
I'm coming in.
**[05:05] Owen**
Step right up.
**[05:21] Wendy**
Well then, I'm off.
**[05:23] Bernard**
What time will you be back?
**[05:25] Wendy**
I hope I won't be long, but the president
of this company likes to talk.
**[05:33] Bernard**
What are you doing, Finn?
**[05:35] Finn**
Oh, you know... Just stretching my legs.
**[05:37] Finn**
Taking a little break.
**[05:39] Bernard**
I see. Breaks are indeed important.
**[05:42] Bernard**
Enjoy your walk.
**[05:43] Bernard**
Ah, that reminds me...
I left the key in the car.
**[05:48] Bernard**
I'll have to go get it later.
**[05:50] Finn**
Welp, I'll be back!
**[05:52] Wendy**
Taking a walk through the back door, huh?
**[05:54] Vijay**
Let him take care of his buddy.
**[06:02] Finn**
Chris.
**[06:03] Finn**
I'm going to...
**[06:07] Owen**
I obtained Chris Redgrave's
medical chart from the hospital.
**[06:11] Owen**
The healing ability of "Calorie's High"
has severely decreased.
**[06:15] Owen**
He still has several contusions and fractures.
**[06:19] Owen**
In addition, they've discovered a condition
similar to his sister's.
**[06:25] Owen**
It's most likely the effects of the X-Hand.
**[06:30] Leo**
I thought as much.
**[06:33] Owen**
What a stupid thing to have done.
**[06:36] Leo**
Stupid?!
**[06:38] Leo**
You call trying to save
your own family *stupid*?
**[06:41] Owen**
To use a card, not to mention an X-Hand,
for personal gain is strictly forbidden.
**[06:48] Owen**
It goes against Master Theodore's policy.
**[06:51] Leo**
Father, you feel the same way?
**[06:53] Owen**
Address him as "President" here—
**[06:55] Leo**
Father!
**[06:56] Theodore**
I'd forgone the appropriate discipline
to avoid creating a vacancy in High Card,
**[07:02] Theodore**
but now that it's come to this,
we can't count him as a part of the team.
**[07:07] Theodore**
I hereby order you, Leo Constantine Pinochle,
**[07:09] Theodore**
manager of the Old Maid branch
of Pinochle Automobiles.
**[07:14] Theodore**
As of today, Chris Redgrave shall be—
**[07:16] Leo**
Chris Redgrave will be fired.
**[07:20] Leo**
I will make him retire.
**[07:23] Theodore**
As he should.
**[07:25] Theodore**
This is what playing cards
for personal gain gets you.
**[07:27] Theodore**
I suppose he wasn't entirely worthless
if he could demonstrate that to you.
**[07:34] Theodore**
Sacrifice is necessary.
**[07:36] Theodore**
When you're born a Pinochle—
**[07:38] Leo**
You're wrong!
**[07:40] Leo**
I didn't make that decision as a Pinochle.
**[07:45] Leo**
I did it as the leader of High Card.
**[07:50] Leo**
I'm not like you, Father.
**[07:54] Theodore**
Is that all you have to say?
**[07:57] Leo**
You don't seem to understand, Father,
**[07:59] Leo**
what it's like to have no choice but
to use a card to save someone you love.
**[08:17] Finn**
Excuse me. Sorry to bother you.
**[08:19] Receptionist**
Welcome. How can I help you?
**[08:21] Finn**
I'm Finn from the Old Maid branch,
**[08:24] Finn**
and there's something I've gotta
tell the president about my partner.
**[08:29] Receptionist**
May I ask if you have an appointment?
**[08:32] Finn**
Nah, it's a spur-of-the-moment thing,
so I don't really have one.
**[08:37] Receptionist**
I'm very sorry,
**[08:38] Receptionist**
but I'm afraid I can't let anyone in
without an appointment.
**[08:42] Finn**
Oh, come on, please! You gotta!
**[08:45] Finn**
I'm a friend of the president's son, you know?
**[08:48] Finn**
Come on! Please?
**[08:57] Zenon**
The name's Zenon. Is the president in?
**[08:59] Receptionist**
Mr. Zenon, do you have an appointment—
**[09:01] Zenon**
I don't.
**[09:02] Finn**
What a pain, am I right?
**[09:04] Finn**
You gotta have an appointment
to see the president.
**[09:07] Zenon**
Then send him a message.
**[09:09] Zenon**
I think he'll want to see me.
**[09:11] Receptionist**
And what should I tell him?
**[09:13] Zenon**
Tell him Zenon from the
Klondike Family is here to see him.
**[09:26] Finn**
Look out!
**[09:38] Finn**
Get out of here, quick!
**[09:39] Receptionist**
O-Okay!
**[09:40] Finn**
Play!
**[09:46] Finn**
You bastard!
**[10:00] Finn**
Hold up, damn it!
**[10:05] Finn**
Out of order?
**[10:06] Finn**
Crap!
**[10:11] Wendy**
An explosion?!
**[10:12] Bernard**
Yes.
**[10:13] Bernard**
The rescue team should be
at headquarters soon.
**[10:17] Bernard**
Vijay, where are you going?!
**[10:19] Vijay**
To headquarters!
**[10:20] Vijay**
I'm worried about Leo.
**[10:21] Vijay**
Please let Wendy know!
**[10:32] Leo**
What's going on?!
**[10:34] Owen**
A fire has broken out
from an explosion in the lobby.
**[10:38] Owen**
A man named Zenon from the Klondike
Family appeared at the reception desk.
**[10:42] Theodore**
Zenon?
**[10:47] Owen**
Who goes there?!
**[10:51] Zenon**
I need to speak with the president.
**[10:54] Theodore**
"Out of Five"?
**[10:56] Theodore**
Watch out! His power is—
**[11:07] Leo**
Owen!
**[11:11] Owen**
Master Theodore!
**[11:20] Finn**
Why can't the president's office be on the
second floor instead of the top one?!
**[11:30] Fake Theodore**
Owen, are you okay?
**[11:32] Owen**
Y-Yes.
**[11:34] Owen**
Master Theodore, that man we saw...
**[11:36] Fake Theodore**
His name is Zenon.
**[11:38] Fake Theodore**
His ability, "Out of Five," can cause
various phenomenon with sound.
**[11:43] Owen**
So he's a player with the Klondikes?
**[11:50] Owen**
And what of Master Leo?
**[11:52] Fake Theodore**
He's my son.
**[11:53] Fake Theodore**
I'm sure he's fine.
**[11:56] Fake Theodore**
More pressing are the cards
in your possession.
**[11:59] Owen**
Have no fear.
**[12:01] Owen**
I will protect them with my life.
**[12:03] Fake Theodore**
Even so, the enemy must be serious
to storm our property like this.
**[12:09] Fake Theodore**
I'll hold on to the cards
myself for now, Owen.
**[12:14] Owen**
B-But with all due respect,
**[12:16] Owen**
as long as I use my power to hide them,
the Klondikes will never...
**[12:21] Fake Theodore**
It's not that I don't trust you.
**[12:23] Fake Theodore**
But this is an emergency.
**[12:26] Fake Theodore**
We cannot risk any kind of mishap.
**[12:29] Owen**
Still...
**[12:31] Fake Theodore**
Trust me.
**[12:36] Owen**
Very well.
**[12:40] Owen**
Play... "Red Labyrinth."
**[12:48] Owen**
Master Theodore, right this way.
**[12:51] Fake Theodore**
Yes...
**[13:02] Vijay**
What in the world...?
**[13:15] Owen**
"Red Labyrinth" allows us to step into
another dimension that's connected
**[13:20] Owen**
to every single door in this country.
**[13:24] Owen**
As long as we have this ability,
**[13:26] Owen**
not a single soul will be able to touch
the cards Pinochle has collected.
**[13:31] Fake Theodore**
Indeed, you're quite right.
**[13:38] Owen**
So, Master Theodore, there can't be
a better hiding place than here.
**[13:45] Fake Theodore**
Thank you for your service, Owen.
**[13:54] Fake Theodore**
I appreciate you guiding me here.
**[13:58] Zenon**
So this is where you've been hiding them.
**[14:00] Owen**
Y-You...
**[14:01] Owen**
How...?
**[14:03] Zenon**
How did I pull this off, you mean?
**[14:08] Zenon**
Too bad. That's a secret.
**[14:23] Theodore**
That power is a real headache.
**[14:26] Ban**
Yup. Comes in handy, you know?
**[14:29] Ban**
Zenon's ability, I mean.
**[14:36] Finn**
Damn it! Up here too?
**[14:39] Finn**
Hot, hot, hot!
**[14:42] Finn**
Leo?!
**[14:44] Leo**
Finn?
**[14:45] Leo**
Why in the world...
**[14:46] Finn**
What are you doing?!
**[14:47] Finn**
Get out of here—
**[14:49] Leo**
Can't you tell?!
**[14:51] Leo**
Lend me a hand!
**[14:52] Finn**
Lend you a hand?
**[14:54] Finn**
You mean you can't move?
**[14:56] Finn**
Did you get burned or something? Whoa!
**[14:58] Leo**
Burned?
**[14:59] Leo**
Come on, do something about this rubble!
**[15:02] Leo**
I can't move it on my own!
**[15:19] Finn**
The hell are you talking about?!
**[15:21] Leo**
I'm telling you to get this rubble off me!
**[15:24] Leo**
That's an order!
**[15:25] Finn**
You need to get out of here!
**[15:27] Leo**
I'm saying I can't!
**[15:29] Leo**
You're so dense!
**[15:44] Finn**
Wh-What the...?
**[15:45] Leo**
What's this?
**[15:46] Vijay**
I thought so. Hallucinations.
**[15:49] Vijay**
It seems the enemy uses sound
to conjure them.
**[15:53] Vijay**
Are you two okay?
**[15:56] Finn**
Vijay, are you alone?
**[15:57] Vijay**
Yes, but Wendy should be joining us shortly.
**[16:01] Vijay**
I need to apprise her of the enemy's power.
**[16:04] Leo**
What about my fa— the president?
**[16:06] Vijay**
I haven't been able to reach him yet.
**[16:08] Vijay**
Not Owen, either.
**[16:09] Leo**
I see.
**[16:10] Vijay**
Wendy? Where are you now?
**[16:13] Wendy**
I've just arrived at headquarters.
**[16:15] Vijay**
*You must be careful.*
**[16:16] Vijay**
* A Klondike player was*
* involved in the explosion.*
**[16:21] Vijay**
*He uses sound to—*
**[16:22] Wendy**
Hold on a moment.
**[16:30] Wendy**
You!
**[16:33] Vijay**
*Wendy? Wendy?!*
**[16:35] Wendy**
Freeze!
**[16:50] Wendy**
You bastard!
**[16:52] Zenon**
I got you.
**[16:58] Zenon**
"Love and Peace."
**[16:59] Zenon**
The sword has taken you over,
so you're not in control anymore.
**[17:06] Love-P**
Come on!
**[17:08] Love-P**
Why are you running away?!
**[17:13] Love-P**
Huh?!
**[17:14] Love-P**
Moving dead bodies?
**[17:20] Love-P**
If that's how you want to play,
I'll send you straight back to hell!
**[17:28] Love-P**
This is so fun!
**[17:29] Love-P**
I slay and slay,
but you keep coming back for me!
**[17:34] Love-P**
That's true friendship, you know?
**[17:36] Love-P**
I just love everyone in High Card!
**[17:39] Zenon**
Keep that up and destroy
Pinochle headquarters for me too!
**[17:42] Love-P**
Where do you think you're going?
**[17:44] Love-P**
Let me feel the intensity
of your friendship, too!
**[17:54] Love-P**
Give it to me rough and hard.
**[17:56] Zenon**
You're crazier than I thought.
**[18:07] Zenon**
This should be far enough.
**[18:08] Finn**
You called it, Vijay.
**[18:11] Vijay**
The ground floor is packed with panicked
employees, police, and firefighters.
**[18:17] Vijay**
The only way to escape is the roof.
**[18:19] Leo**
Answer me! Where's the president?!
**[18:24] Love-P**
Wow, you're all alive!
**[18:26] Love-P**
Now die again!
**[18:26] Finn**
Love-P?!
**[18:28] Love-P**
Let me kill you more!
**[18:29] Love-P**
It's what real friends do!
**[18:37] Love-P**
You couldn't even stop
a dull sword with that!
**[18:41] Vijay**
We don't have time for this.
**[18:46] Zenon**
Have fun fighting.
**[18:54] Love-P**
A little bonus for me!
**[19:14] Love-P**
I never know when I'll get
to come out, you know?
**[19:18] Love-P**
So now's my chance to cut this and
that and that and that! Everything!
**[19:39] Zenon**
Damn it!
**[19:43] Vijay**
Leo, we should—
**[19:45] Leo**
We can't let him get away!
**[19:53] Love-P**
What?
**[19:54] Love-P**
Did they get squashed?
**[19:56] Love-P**
Say something, guys!
**[19:58] Love-P**
Aw, and I was so excited
to carve up your flesh!
**[20:03] Bernard**
You haven't changed.
**[20:08] Love-P**
That voice...
**[20:11] Finn**
O-Old man!
**[20:15] Love-P**
You always get in my way when
I'm having the best time.
**[20:20] Bernard**
You've been a bit too naughty.
**[20:23] Finn**
C-Careful, old man!
**[20:25] Finn**
This isn't a good time. Wendy's not herself.
**[20:27] Bernard**
I am aware.
**[20:29] Bernard**
We're old friends, you could say.
**[20:34] Bernard**
Play...
**[20:38] Bernard**
Bokka!
**[20:38] Sign**
BOKKA
**[20:47] Finn**
The old man's a player?!
**[20:50] Leo**
Bernard!
**[20:51] Love-P**
Now it's time for a fair fight.
**[20:54] Love-P**
I'll take these years of resentment
and slay the hell outta you!
**[21:01] Finn**
Old man, watch out!
**[21:08] Love-P**
Damn it, not again...
**[21:11] Bernard**
No matter how many times
you try, it's pointless.
**[21:13] Bernard**
My Bokka is impenetrable.
**[21:24] Bernard**
I'll be seeing you, Miss Love-P.
**[21:28] Vijay**
Bernard... just who are you?
**[21:33] Finn**
Well, I'm glad everyone's safe.
**[21:35] Leo**
No, we still don't know where my father is.
**[21:42] Female Reporter**
Take a look!
**[21:43] Female Reporter**
We're at the site of a helicopter
crash at Pinochle headquarters.
**[21:47] Female Reporter**
On the roof where the chopper went down,
**[21:49] Female Reporter**
you can see strange gashes
as if cut by an incredibly sharp blade.
**[21:54] Leo**
A press helicopter?
**[21:56] Leo**
Since when? How long have they been watching?
**[21:58] Vijay**
This is very bad.
**[23:36] Finn**
Next time: "ONCE UPON A TIME."
