    Damn it!
[00:15] Brian
    Nope, we lost him.
[00:18] Brian
    And my brand-new jacket is wrecked, too.
[00:21] Danny
    That rat! Did he
    actually hide in the sewer—
[00:28] Brian
    Bastard!
[00:30] Brian
    Danny, are you dead?
[00:32] Danny
    No, I'm good.
[00:33] Danny
    Go after him, quick!
[00:35] Brian
    Don't you die on me if you want
    your money back, all right?!
[00:44] Brian
    Stop!
[00:45] Brian
    Drop your gun.

    Hey!

    No, no, no, no...
[01:07] Brian
    Are you... kidding me?!
[01:10] Brian
    Damn it! How can I...
[01:15] Brian
    Man, I borrowed money to buy this thing.
[01:42] Brian
    Now you're finished, you piece of shit.
[01:47] Diego
    Fine. You win.
[01:56] Brian
    You bastard—
[01:59] Diego
    P-Please! Don't do it!
[02:03] Diego
    I-I'll keep quiet!
[02:05] Diego
    I won't tell anyone about you guys.
[02:08] Brian
    Hey, what are you talking about?!
[02:10] Diego
    S-Stop! I-I'm begging you!

    Don't... Don't do it!

[02:36] Officer 1
    You're all immigrants.
    Show me your certificates.
[02:40] Brian
    Gimme a break! How was
    that considered suicide?!
[02:43] Sakaki
    A petty drug dealer shot himself in the head
    because he was afraid of getting arrested.
[02:49] Sakaki
    The only fingerprints found
    on the weapon were his.
[02:53] Sakaki
    What was it, if not suicide?
[02:54] Brian
    I'm telling you, he didn't shoot himself!
[02:57] Brian
    It was like he was being
    manipulated by something...
[03:00] Sakaki
    Don't tell me you were on drugs!
[03:02] Brian
    Like hell I was!
[03:03] Brian
    This isn't a normal case.
[03:06] Brian
    There's something real bad going on behind it.
[03:08] Sakaki
    In any case, vice is out of our jurisdiction.
[03:12] Sakaki
    On top of that, you could be charged with
     destruction of property and forced entry.
[03:16] Sakaki
    How much more do you want to
    tack on? Illegal investigation, maybe?
[03:19] Brian
    And that's why I've got a top arrest rate!
[03:21] Brian
    Me running around risking my life resulted
[03:24] Brian
    in your precious collection
    right here, didn't it?!
[03:30] Sakaki
    Danny is dead.
[03:32] Sakaki
    I have turned a blind eye to your
    reckless investigations so far.
[03:36] Sakaki
    But I cannot let someone who let his
    partner die continue to wear a badge.
[03:47] Brian
    So you're firing me?
[03:50] Sakaki
    Leave your gun and your badge here.
[03:52] Sakaki
    And don't forget to submit
    a letter of apology.
[03:55] Sakaki
    Even if you're fired, the rule still applies—
[03:57] Brian
    This is bullshit!
[03:59] Brian
    I'm not gonna take this crap!
[04:00] Brian
    Don't you dare waste Danny's death!
[04:03] Sakaki
    Hey, someone stop him!
[04:05] Sakaki
    Let go of me!

    familiar with vampiric creatures...

    This is... the right address, I think.

SIGN    Notice of Unofficial Letter of Employment
    
    Mr. Brian Nightraider
    
    After careful consideration and vigorous screening,
    we are pleased to offer you the position with our organization.
[06:26] Brian
    Marginal Service?
[06:29] Theodore
    We were established a month ago,
    initiated by the government.
[06:33] Theodore
    We're still in our trial phase, though.
[06:39] Theodore
    You were born in East Dakota.
[06:43] Theodore
    Later on, you immigrated to Japan.
[06:46] Theodore
    You were assigned to the
    1st Division's Enforcement Unit
[06:49] Theodore
    at the Shibujuku Station five years ago.
[06:52] Theodore
    Oh, you like? It's tea from the Inca Empire.
[06:57] Theodore
    A rare, indispensable product
[06:58] Theodore
    in the process of creating a mummy
    during the sacrificial ritual.
[07:03] Theodore
    I'm kidding.
[07:04] Theodore
    It's Pau d'Arco tea. Good for your
     health and promotes longevity.
[07:08] Theodore
    You've been written up
    countless times for brutality,
[07:09] Theodore
    forcible entry, and
    unauthorized investigation.
[07:11] Theodore
    Your letters of apology made
    a stack as thick as a dictionary.
[07:15] Brian
    And my arrest rate was at the
    top for five years in a row.
[07:19] Theodore
    Yes, I asked for you because I expect
    good results based on your record.
[07:24] Brian
    And what am I investigating?
[07:27] Brian
    Yakuza? Mafia? Or drug cartels?
[07:31] Brian
    Don't tell me we're busting porn shops.
[07:34] Theodore
    Borderlanders.
[07:37] Brian
    Borderlanders?
[07:39] Theodore
    That's a term for unidentified mysterious
    creatures that coexist with us in this society.
[07:45] Brian
    Huh? Unidentified mysterious creatures?
[07:49] Theodore
    This has not been disclosed to the public yet,
[07:51] Theodore
    but these creatures have the same
    rights as the regular citizens
[07:54] Theodore
    and coexist with us humans in this society.
[07:57] Theodore
    In other words, Borderlanders.

[08:00] Theodore
    I fully expect you to be perplexed,
[08:02] Theodore
    but there have been numerous documents
    throughout history that prove their existence.
[08:07] Brian
    Hold on a second. Are you
    talking about UMAs and monsters?
[08:12] Theodore
    In Japan, there are about 10,000 of them.
[08:14] Theodore
    Obviously, many could be fakes,
    but there are some that seem authentic—
[08:20] Brian
    This is bullshit!
[08:22] Brian
    Man, I came here for this when I'm hungover?
[08:25] Theodore
    You know about the attempted
    assassination of the Minister
[08:28] Theodore
    and the bombing of the Immigration Bureau?
[08:31] Theodore
    I'd like you to investigate such cases
    that involve Borderlanders.
[08:35] Brian
    Hey, I never agreed to anything!
[08:37] Brian
    Other investigators are downstairs.
    Let me introduce them to you.
[08:42] Brian
    Like I said—
[08:48] Brian
    Hey, what's going on?
[09:04] Theodore
    Welcome to the Marginal Service.
[09:08] Theodore
    First, I'll introduce you to the members.
[09:13] Theodore
    This is Brian, our newcomer.
[09:16] Theodore
    Until last week, he was
    at the Shibujuku Station—
[09:19] Brian
    Before anything, let me clear up one thing.
[09:22] Brian
    Are you all normal humans?
[09:26] Robin
    What a greeting.
[09:28] Bolts
    How about you?
[09:30] Lyra
    When it comes to beauty,
    I'm obviously beyond "normal."
[09:34] Cyrus
    I'm sleepy.
[09:36] Theodore
    We've all had rather peculiar careers,
    but we're humans, more or less.
[09:41] Brian
    What do you mean, "more or less"?
[09:43] Robin
    Come on, relax a little, rookie.
[09:46] Robin
    I couldn't believe it myself in the beginning.
[09:48] Bolts
    Drink this and calm down.
[09:51] Brian
    And this is?
[09:52] Bolts
    A protein shake.
[09:54] Brian
    Thanks, but no thanks.
[09:56] Bolts
    Ah. You like it shaken up hard.
[09:59] Brian
    Uh, no.
[10:00] Theodore
    Anyhow, let's introduce ourselves.
[10:02] Theodore
    We're a team, after all.
[10:05] Cyrus
    I have no intention of making friends.
[10:07] Cyrus
    I'm sure our intelligence
    levels are different.
[10:09] Robin
    Same here. I can't be hanging out with
    a wimpy introvert, or it'll rub off on me!
[10:14] Bolts
    What? But I'm an extrovert.
[10:16] Robin
    I'm not talking about you, Yankee.
[10:18] Bolts
    What do you want, Limey?
[10:20] Robin
    Well, I don't plan on
    showing up at your barbecue.
[10:23] Lyra
    Oh? I love some meat, myself.
[10:26] Lyra
    But I prefer mine a bloody, blue rare.
[10:28] Cyrus
    This workplace is truly
    overflowing with intelligence.
[10:31] Cyrus
    Changing jobs was completely the right call.
[10:35] Brian
    Setting the Borderlander stuff aside,
[10:38] Brian
    let's just pretend that this never happened.
[10:42] Brian
    What now? There's more of you?
[10:45] Zeno
    Who's he?
[10:46] Theodore
    The new recruit I told you about.
[10:49] Theodore
    Although he says he's not
    interested in joining us.
[10:52] Zeno
    Move.
[10:53] Brian
    You move.
[10:55] Zeno
    Don't make me repeat myself.
[10:57] Brian
    Huh? You're some old dude who
    doesn't know how to communica—
[11:00] Brian
    Ow!
[11:06] Brian
    Ouch... You bastard!
[11:09] Brian
    Huh?
[11:10] Zeno
    Obtained from a law enforcement agency.
[11:12] Zeno
    It's a new drug going around
    these days, called Confu.
[11:16] Zeno
    I'm still investigating, but a component
    from some legendary magic mushrooms
[11:21] Zeno
    used in ancient Aztec
    rituals was detected in it.
[11:25] Zeno
    Those are special mushrooms
    only grown in a certain area.
[11:28] Zeno
    It is very likely that a Borderlander
    terrorist organization is involved.
[11:32] Robin
    Are they selling the drug to
    make money to arm themselves?
[11:34] Bolts
    No doubt.
[11:35] Lyra
    We'd better look into it
    from that point of view.
[11:38] Brian
    Hey, hold on!
[11:40] Brian
    Try actually explaining this!
[11:42] Zeno
    This doesn't concern you.
[11:44] Brian
    It didn't a minute ago!
[11:47] Brian
    But it does now.
[11:59] Zeno
    Didn't I tell you not to sit down?
[12:02] Brian
    My partner was killed in
    a case related to some drug.
[12:04] Brian
    I want to know the truth.
[12:06] Zeno
    Then pay me the cleaning fee
    for the seat later.
[12:09] Zeno
    And half the cost of the gas.
[12:11] Brian
    You're kidding, right?
[12:12] Zeno
    I don't know you well enough for jokes.
[12:14] Brian
    I guess you're right.
SIGN    The Third Immigrant Area
[12:19] Brian
    UMAs, monsters, or whatever
    it is... Do they really exist?
[12:23] Zeno
    They're called Borderlanders.
    Use the correct terminology.
[12:27] Brian
    And are why these Borderlanders
    acting like terrorists?
[12:31] Brian
    Are they organized? For what purpose?
[12:33] Zeno
    It is our job to find that out.
    Keep your mouth shut for a second.
[12:38] Brian
    Do you always take that attitude?
[12:43] Brian
    My old man was just like you.
[12:46] Brian
    He was only interested in himself,
    and he always looked down on everyone else.
[12:51] Brian
    In short, he was a douchebag.
[12:53] Zeno
    If you have an inferiority complex regarding
     your father, take it up with him.
[12:57] Brian
    He disappeared when I was five.
[13:01] Brian
    I became a detective to find him
    and punch him in the face.
[13:06] Brian
    That bastard!
[13:07] Brian
    He'll probably get arrested for
    drug possession or petty theft.
[13:14] Zeno
    I couldn't care less.
[13:15] Zeno
    If you're feeling lonely, you'd better find
     someone who wants to listen to your story.

    You wanna bust them for fraud?
[13:40] Brian
    You're not gonna tell me, "We're in
    the middle of investigation," are you?
[13:44] Brian
    We'd be more suspicious if we
    weren't drinking in this situation.
[13:47] Zeno
    You're right about that.
[13:49] Zeno
    But I've got no need for you to buy me a drink.
[13:54] Brian
    You could have told me!
[13:55] Brian
    But drug deals at a place like this?
[13:58] Brian
    I don't think they marked
    this place at the station.
[14:00] Zeno
    It's based on intel the police don't have.
[14:03] Brian
    But you're taking the seized articles with you?
[14:06] Brian
    As expected from a UN-affiliated organization.
[14:08] Brian
    I don't like how you do business.

    if we're up against monsters.
[14:50] Zeno
    Don't make me repeat myself.
    They're Borderlanders.

[15:16] Brian
    So my boss wasn't even human, huh?
[15:20] Brian
    But why deal drugs? Money?
[15:22] Zeno
    Traits of Borderlanders, number two.
[15:24] Zeno
    They have unique religious views and thought
    processes. They're hard to understand.
[15:29] Brian
    Still, the guy is an elite.
    Why would he dabble in crimes?
[15:32] Zeno
    No matter how much they
    seem to adapt to society,
[15:34] Zeno
    there are those who get involved in crime.
[15:36] Zeno
    Same as humans.
[15:39] Zeno
    We need to let them run for a while
    so we can locate their organization—

    Hm?

    Don't move!

    Brian? Why are you here?
[15:55] Brian
    I'm job hunting, thanks to you for firing me.
[16:00] Sakaki
    That gun was issued by the station.
[16:02] Brian
    I kept it in lieu of my severance pay.
[16:05] Sakaki
    Causing trouble even after you're fired?
[16:07] Sakaki
    Danny can't rest in peace, I'm sure.
[16:10] Brian
    Don't move!

    Do you want to die?!

    That's... my line!

    Hey, that hurt.

    Well, if nothing else,

[16:33] Sakaki
    With better conduct, you could

    Wh-What the heck is going on?!
[16:40] Zeno
    Traits of Borderlanders, number three.
[16:42] Zeno
    Their cells have extremely
    high regenerative capacity.
[16:47] Zeno
    In other words, they're hard to kill.
[16:49] Brian
    You could have started with that one!
[17:09] Woman 1
    Are you okay?
[17:10] Man 2

[00:03] Brian/I
    I woke up at 8:00 AM this morning.
SIGN    Notice of Unofficial Letter of Employment
    
    Mr. Brian Nightraider
    
    After careful consideration and vigorous screening,
    we are pleased to offer you the position with our organization.
[00:07] Brian/I
    After taking a shower while my
    head pounded from my hangover,
[00:11] Brian/I
    I downed a cold pizza and coffee made
    with beans from who knows where.
SIGN    IMMIGRANT CRIME ON THE RISE
[00:16] Brian/I
    I thought I left for work like usual.
[00:20] Brian/I
    And yet...
[00:24] Brian/I
    With even one step,
[00:27] Brian/I
    I could be riddled with bullets.
    Or worse, minced.

[02:18] Man 1
    This is Alpha.
[02:20] Man 1
    I have spotted the object.
[02:22] Man 1
    Following the data from the radar,
    we've arrived at the point
[02:25] Man 1
    where the flying object from
    outer space seems to have fallen.
[02:41] Man 2
    Fire!
[03:36] Man 3
    What the hell are these things?
[03:43] Theodore
    And this is how we came to acknowledge
    the existence of Borderlanders.
[03:46] Theodore
    Commonly referred to as the Gray Shock—
[03:48] Brian
    Wait, wait, wait.
[03:50] Brian
    Aliens versus monsters?
[03:52] Brian
    Is this some kinda bad horror movie?
[03:54] Peck
    He's taking his time to explain
    Borderlanders to you, dumbass.
[03:58] Peck
    Quit your bitching.
[04:01] Peck
    Cat got your tongue?
[04:02] Peck
    Did you turn into a stuffed animal?
[04:06] Brian
    This guy's from...
[04:07] Theodore
    The only Borderlander in our organization.
[04:10] Theodore
    He's our supervisor and plays a role
    in spreading disinformation.
[04:15] Brian
    After the kappa, we have a monster rat, huh?
[04:18] Peck
    Who are you calling a rat?!
[04:21] Peck
    You want me to bite off your wiener, huh?!
[04:24] Brian
    Huh?! Ouch!
[04:27] Brian
    Ow, ow, ow...
[04:28] Brian
    Quit it! Quit biting me, damn it!
[04:28] Lyra
    But when that footage was recorded...
[04:32] Cyrus
    ...they weren't called Borderlanders yet.
[04:36] Brian
    When did you two show up?
[04:38] Lyra
    In the middle of the bad movie.
[04:40] Peck
    My Lyra!
[04:41] Cyrus
    I can't get enough of it.
[04:44] Cyrus
    Unlike the Santilli film or
    the Patterson-Gimlin film,
[04:47] Cyrus
    it's the UN's extremely confidential material.
[04:49] Brian
    "Extremely confidential"?
    You gotta be kidding me!
[04:52] Theodore
    Just like the Roswell incident
    from the last century,
[04:55] Theodore
    it is media that captured a rare
    invasion by extraterrestrial life.
[04:59] Theodore
    But unexpected collaborators appeared.
[05:04] Theodore
    Their existence is spoken of
    across time and in many cultures,
[05:07] Theodore
    often called cryptids, apparitions, or UMAs.
[05:11] Lyra
    But they actually existed
    and lived ordinary lives.
[05:17] Cyrus
    Sometimes they would cause
    problems in human society.
[05:21] Brian
    For real?
[05:23] Theodore
    Naturally, there was a huge controversy
    in the UN over how to handle them.
[05:28] Theodore
    We owed them for dealing with the alien threat,
[05:32] Theodore
    so simply eliminating them
    didn't seem like a good idea.
[05:36] Theodore
    After some heated arguments,
[05:38] Theodore
    it was decided that they
    would be called Borderlanders,
[05:41] Theodore
    and while their existence would be
    concealed from ordinary citizens,
[05:44] Theodore
    their rights were to be fully respected.
[05:48] Lyra
    But in reality, their lives are
    controlled by many regulations.
[05:52] Cyrus
    Officially, they say we coexist,
[05:55] Cyrus
    but we can't deny that they
    can be potential risk factors.
[05:58] Brian
    Then we shouldn't be cooped up
    in the basement of some occult shop!
[06:02] Brian
    We should be officially cracking down on them!

[06:08] Zeno
    Your thinking is short-sighted.
[06:11] Brian
    Is arriving fashionably late one of
    your personal rules or something?
[06:15] Zeno
    If people were given room to misunderstand
     the truth, not only would it cause panic,
[06:18] Zeno
    but history itself might be overwritten.
[06:20] Zeno
    You lack so much as an ounce
    of imagination, you idiot.
[06:22] Brian
    Right back at you!
[06:23] Brian
    You should reflect on how
    you communicate with others.
[06:27] Brian
    You are way too nasty.
[06:28] Zeno
    I have reflected on it, and this is my answer.
[06:31] Zeno
    You're not cut out for the Marginal Service.
[06:33] Zeno
    Find another employer.
[06:35] Brian
    Th-The drug case hasn't been closed yet!
[06:38] Brian
    I can't show my face before
    my former partner like this.
[06:42] Brian
    If these Borderlanders are planning
    a terrorist attack, even more so!
[06:47] Brian
    So, where's my ex-boss
    who got riddled with bullets?
[06:50] Brian
    There's no doubt he's involved with
    a terrorist organization somehow.
[06:53] Brian
    We should go ahead and interrogate—
[06:55] Brian
    Wh-What's this?
[06:56] Zeno
    He's already being interrogated.
[06:59] Brian
    Of all the things to spend money on...
[07:03] Robin
    Damn it!
[07:04] Brian
    You bastard!
[07:05] Brian
    Stop being a sore loser...
[07:08] Brian
    Huh?
[07:09] Robin
    I'm telling you, the squat is
    the foundation of workouts!
[07:12] Bolts
    No, the deadlift is.
[07:14] Robin
    No, it's the squat!
[07:16] Zeno
    Interrogation?
[07:17] Bolts
    Haven't started.
[07:18] Robin
    Because of his fake machismo, things
    aren't going as well as they should.
[07:22] Bolts
    Are you talking about me?
[07:24] Brian
    Stop fighting over stupid shit!
[07:28] Brian
    Hey! Things are getting complicated
    'cause you didn't fess up right away!
[07:32] Sakaki
    Get me a lawyer.
[07:34] Sakaki
    A Borderlander is entitled to that.
[07:36] Brian
    Huh?! How the hell should I know that?!
[07:39] Brian
    What's the situation in that department?
[07:41] Zeno
    He has the right to one.
[07:43] Zeno
    But his options are limited to public
    defenders appointed by the UN.
[07:47] Zeno
    If you don't want to talk, then don't talk.
[07:49] Zeno
    I only came here to confirm something.
[07:51] Zeno
    The rare magic mushroom that was
    detected in the drug you were dealing...
[07:56] Zeno
    Between that and the dirt on your shoes, we've
     figured out where it's being manufactured.
[08:02] Brian
    The location? Is that...
[08:03] Robin
    You bastard!
[08:05] Zeno
    It's Jukai.
[08:11] Brian
    A cursed forest with contaminated soil,
    thanks to the UFO crash.
[08:16] Brian
    Who knew it would start to
    grow weird mushrooms, too?
[08:19] Robin
    Five minutes to landing!
[08:22] Lyra
    Got it.
[08:24] Lyra
    There's a chance that our communication
    might be affected, so be prepared.
[08:29] Brian
    This is the fourth time I'm asking, but...
[08:31] Brian
    Do I really have to wear these?
[08:34] Zeno
    That's the rule.
[08:35] Bolts
    Look at this form, reminiscent of the quads.
[08:40] Bolts
    I guess this one is more like traps.
[08:43] Brian
    O-O-O-Okay...
[08:45] Bolts
    All of them have synchrotrons built in.
[08:47] Bolts
    The ammo is specially
    designed for Borderlanders.
[08:49] Bolts
    Bursts of metal rivets stop their movement.
[08:53] Brian
    Your name is Bolts, right?
[08:56] Brian
    I heard you're a former mercenary.
[08:58] Brian
    Were you also like this back then?
[09:00] Bolts
    Yes, and?
[09:04] Robin
    A gun-loving, meathead mercenary? So typical!
[09:08] Robin
    Mindless adoration of muscles...
    Simply put, it's tasteless.
[09:12] Bolts
    You're the one who has no class.
[09:14] Bolts
    You used to be a spy, hiding and
    sneaking around in the dark.
[09:17] Robin
    Hey, now, I was a stylish agent of
    the Secret Intelligence Service.
[09:21] Bolts
    But you were fired.
[09:22] Robin
    I quit of my own accord!
    Don't lump me together with you!
[09:26] Bolts
    I was discharged.
[09:27] Bolts
    I'm not running away from my past!
[09:30] Robin
    Running away?!
[09:32] Robin
    You don't know anything
    about my past, so shut up!
[09:32] Brian
    Can it! The chopper is loud enough as is!
[09:36] Brian
    Seriously though, is there really
    a drug lab in a place like this?
[09:45] Brian
    Turn around! Right now!
[09:50] Brian
    Oh, no! We're gonna fall!
[09:53] Brian
    What are you—
[09:54] Robin
    Jumping ship.
[09:55] Brian
    Huh?!
[09:57] Bolts
    See you again, newbie!
[09:59] Brian
    W-Wait, where are my arms supposed to go?!
[10:14] Brian
    What the heck...
[10:21] Brian
    Ouch...
[10:25] Brian
    I wouldn't expect an ambulance, but you
     could have at least lent me a hand!
[10:29] Zeno
    I don't waste my calories.
[10:31] Brian
    Well, that's too bad.
[10:32] Brian
    I thought I'd help you shed some
    pounds of middle-aged flab.
[10:36] Zeno
    My body fat is at five percent.
[10:37] Brian
    Wow, thanks for oversharing.
[10:40] Brian
    So, where are Bolts and Robin?
[10:42] Zeno
    Who knows?
[10:43] Brian
    Hey, where are you going?
[10:44] Zeno
    The mission is still on.
[10:47] Brian
    Mission? Under these circumstances?
[10:50] Brian
    Contact the base!
[10:52] Zeno
    I've tried.
[10:57] Brian
    Man, it's gone crazy.
[10:58] Zeno
    It's affected by the strong
    electromagnetic waves in Jukai.
[11:01] Zeno
    I didn't expect it to be this strong, though.
[11:03] Brian
    It's fine to try and get out of this mess
    by ourselves, but can we take a break first?
[11:08] Brian
    Fine! Suit yourself!
[11:22] Borderlander Leader
    Raise the alert level!
[11:25] Borderlander Leader
    Kill them on sight!
[11:27] Borderlanders
    Yes, sir!
[11:28] Brian
    Can they turn invisible, too?
[11:31] Zeno
    There are individual differences
    in the traits of Borderlanders.
[11:34] Zeno
    We don't know what kinds
    of traits they have.
[11:38] Brian
    I guess we'll have to try and see.
[11:40] Brian
    Let me use that spear. We'll sandwich them.
[11:43] Brian
    Hey, are you ignoring me?!
[11:45] Zeno
    We're up against armored Borderlanders.
[11:47] Zeno
    If you're going to die, do it on your own.
[11:50] Brian
    Yeah, but in this situation, there's nothing—
[11:58] Brian
    A cave?
[11:59] Zeno
    One of Jukai's wind caves.
[12:05] Brian
    Does this lead to the drug
    manufacturing plant?
[12:08] Brian
    What if we get lost?
[12:11] Zeno
    Then we'll die.
[12:12] Brian
    We should go find Robin and Bolts first!
[12:15] Brian
    They might be hurt somewhere...
[12:17] Zeno
    They're professionals, not an amateur like you.
[12:22] Borderlander 2
    This way!
[12:22] Borderlander 3
    Let's go!
[12:23] Borderlander 4
    Get on the other side!
[12:24] Borderlander 5
    Find their footsteps!
[12:25] Brian
    Damn it!
[12:30] Robin
    You didn't hit your head, did you?
[12:33] Bolts
    This is what one should do in the mountains.
[12:35] Bolts
    It provides camouflage and
    obscures your body temperature.
[12:40] Robin
    My skin is sensitive!
[12:42] Robin
    I use imported soap, even!
[12:45] Bolts
    From here on, it will be
    hand-to-hand combat.
[12:47] Bolts
    Since we're outnumbered,
    it's imperative that we operate covertly!
[12:55] Robin
    Oh, it might not be so bad.
[12:59] Brian
    Looks like you know a lot about survival.
[13:02] Zeno
    More than you do, obviously.
[13:04] Brian
    Did you train for special forces somewhere?
[13:08] Brian
    Unlike Bolts or Robin,
    you're a former detective.
[13:12] Brian
    I know because I'm one, too.
[13:14] Brian
    You were able to get a hold
    of the confiscated drug
[13:16] Brian
    because you have contacts in the police.
[13:19] Brian
    How did you get involved in this job?
[13:21] Zeno
    None of your business.
[13:23] Brian
    I didn't ask for this, but we
     have to work together.
[13:26] Brian
    If we were cops, I'd invite
    you over for some chicken.
[13:30] Zeno
    I don't like poultry.
[13:33] Brian
    The point is, I can't trust you to
    have my back if I don't know you.
[13:38] Brian
    So I need to know more about you.
[13:42] Brian
    Any family members?
[13:43] Brian
    Do you eat at conveyor belt
     sushi joints on your days off
[13:47] Brian
    with your ugly wife and snot-nosed kids?
[13:50] Brian
    Oh? Did I make you mad?
[13:53] Brian
    My bad. Since you're ignoring me,
    my mouth didn't know where to stop—
[14:01] Brian
    Yeah, I get it.
[14:03] Brian
    There was a snake or a scorpion
    behind me, right?
[14:06] Brian
    Or not.
[14:07] Zeno
    You seem to misunderstand, so let me be clear.
[14:10] Zeno
    I have no intention of teaming up with anyone.
[14:14] Zeno
    Especially not a fool like you.
[14:20] Brian
    Man, you look like a guy
    with no joy in his life.
[14:23] Zeno
    If it looks that way to you,
[14:26] Zeno
    then you're correct.
[14:30] Zeno
    This world is full of shit.
[14:39] Bolts
    How did you catch me?
[14:41] Robin
    This only works in muddy areas!
[14:44] Robin
    We stand out even more!
[14:46] Borderlander 6
    You don't look like cops.
[14:49] Borderlander 7
    In any case—
[14:50] Robin
    Hey, now! Hold on a second.
[14:53] Robin
    He's not a bad guy.
[14:55] Robin
    All the protein's just gone to his head.
[14:58] Bolts
    The brain is made of protein, too.
[15:00] Robin
    You see?
[15:01] Robin
    Incredible sense of humor on this guy, huh?!
[15:04] Robin
    Let's go half-and-half!
[15:05] Bolts
    That was my plan!
[15:07] Robin
    Ha! Easy-peasy.
[15:10] Borderlander 8
    Damn it!
[15:12] Borderlander 9
    Kill them! Damn it!
[15:16] Robin
    Shit! We need our ranged weapons here.
[15:19] Bolts
    We have a ranged weapon.
[15:20] Robin
    Where?
[15:22] Bolts
    Right here!
[15:32] Robin
    You know I can't swim, damn it!
[15:34] Bolts
    Sorry, my friend needs me!
[15:36] Borderlander 9
    Fire, fire, fire!
[15:49] Robin
    Whoa, I can swim now!
[15:51] Robin
    You bastard!
[15:51] Robin
    I'm seriously going to kill you!
[15:54] Bolts
    Hold it.
[15:55] Robin
    Huh?
[16:00] Brian/I
    That's...
[16:08] Borderlander Leader
    Hurry up! The next delivery is in 30 minutes!
[16:16] Zeno
    Hey.
[16:23] Brian
    No warning?!
[16:25] Brian
    You're not even gonna check whether
     he's a Borderlander or not?
[16:27] Zeno
    Even if he's human,
    this is legally self-defense.
[16:31] Brian
    I really think you should get your
    head checked out at the hospital.
[16:34] Zeno
    I have a medical checkup tomorrow.
[16:36] Brian
    So, what's the plan?
[16:37] Brian
    Do we take them out one by one?
[16:39] Brian
    If you want to follow the money—
[16:45] Brian
    I'm pretty confident in my marksmanship!
[16:50] Brian
    Don't mind if I do.
[16:51] Zeno
    That idiot! He's a Borderlander!
[16:54] Borderlander 10
    Don't move!
[16:55] Brian
    "Borderlanders are hard to kill," was it?
[17:02] Borderlander Leader
    You don't look like you're
    from the Immigration Bureau.
[17:05] Borderlander Leader
    Are you from the police? Or military?
[17:08] Borderlander Leader
    Or...
[17:12] Borderlander Leader
    There's a rumor about a new,
    annoying organization
[17:15] Borderlander Leader
    that specifically deals with Borderlanders.
[17:20] Borderlander Leader
    You must be them.
[17:22] Brian
    Th-This is his true form...
[17:25] Brian
    A dinosauroid? One of those UMAs?
[17:27] Zeno
    The true forms of Borderlanders
    differ based on the individual.
[17:31] Zeno
    Normally, they take shapes of
    normal humans to follow regulations.
[17:34] Borderlander Leader
    So you are from that organization.
[17:37] Borderlander Leader
    It's actually rather stressful, you know,
[17:40] Borderlander Leader
    having to keep makeup on at all times.
[17:44] Brian
    I'm sorry I got you into this mess.
[17:48] Zeno
    I anticipated this might happen.
[17:50] Zeno
    Although I failed to anticipate
    just how useless you'd be.
[17:53] Brian
    Do you really have to keep that up now?
[17:55] Borderlander Leader
    This is great!
[17:56] Borderlander Leader
    Look like there'll be no hard
    feelings about who dies first.
[18:02] Brian
    The reason why I took this job...
[18:05] Borderlander Leader
    Huh?
[18:06] Brian
    I said it was for my former partner,
    which might have sounded plausible.
[18:10] Brian
    But that was a lie.
[18:12] Brian
    I just wanted to prove you wrong!
[18:17] Borderlander Leader
    Huh?
[18:18] Brian
    Leave this to me.
[18:19] Brian
    I'll clean up my own mess.
[18:22] Zeno
    What do you think you're doing?
[18:24] Brian
    This is a ritual practiced
    by ancient warriors...
[18:27] Brian
    who are going into their last battle!
[18:31] Borderlander Leader
    Ha! He's crazy!
[18:44] Zeno
    They're finally here.
[18:47] Robin
    Apologies. We were looking for something.
[18:55] Bolts
    Leave the rest to us!
[19:02] Zeno
    I knew that specialized weapons
    would be essential.
[19:05] Brian
    I've seen this somewhere before...
[19:09] Robin
    My skin feels tingly!
[19:22] Brian
    I can't tell which side is
    the Borderlanders anymore.
[19:26] Borderlander Leader
    D-Damn it!
[19:28] Bolts
    "I'll kill you last." That's what I told you.
[19:32] Borderlander Leader
    Huh? No, you didn't.
[19:34] Bolts
    That was a lie.
[19:35] Borderlander Leader
    I said, you didn't—
[19:40] Borderlander Leader
    Y-You bastard, I'll kill—
[19:48] Zeno
    What's the matter?
[19:49] Zeno
    I thought you were going to prove me wrong.
[19:53] Brian
    Yeah, that's my plan!
[19:56] Brian
    Marginal explosion!
[19:59] Brian/Zeno/Robin/Bolts
    Fire!
[20:05] Brian
    What?! Wh-Which side is the front?!
[20:07] Zeno
    Both are.
[20:08] Brian
    What?!
[20:09] Robin
    Amateurs get them mixed up.
[20:11] Bolts
    So we modified it to shoot from both ends!
[20:15] Brian
    Are you all idiots?

    Investigation into the source of funds
    for the Borderlander terrorists,
[20:31] Theodore
    and their illegal drug sales...
SIGN    Mysterious Explosion in Jukai!
    
    Was It Natural Gas?!
[20:34] Theodore
    That was supposed to be your mission.
[20:36] Brian

[20:37] Brian
    If you've got something to say, tell them!
[20:39] Robin
    I have complaints, too!
[20:42] Robin
    My skin feels terrible.
[20:44] Lyra
    We had a hard time covering this up, too.
[20:47] Lyra
    Some occult magazines went crazy over it.
[20:48] Peck
    My Lyra—
[20:50] Cyrus
    Anyhow, I'm glad your injuries were minor.
[20:53] Bolts
    Everyone, frustration is bad for you.
[20:55] Bolts
    Drink this and calm down!
[20:57] Robin
    "Wow, how thoughtful!
    Protein is great for skin, too!"
[21:02] Robin
    Said no one ever!
[21:04] Zeno
    The guy confessed.
[21:06] Zeno
    This is the ringleader of the organization:
[21:10] Zeno
    Rubber Suit.

[00:02] Brian/I
    I was born in East Dakota, USA.
[00:08] Brian/I
    I've been so poor since I was a child
[00:14] Brian/I
    that even though I make
    decent money right now,
[00:18] Brian/I
    my standard of living is
    the lowest of the low.
[00:22] Brian/I
    A guy like me shouldn't have
    gorged on caviar like that.
[00:28] (Flashback) Brian
    Mmm, so good!
[00:32] Brian/I
    Who knew I'd end up eating hot lead, too?
SIGN    Don't Overeat Caviar
[02:23] Rubber
    Mmm, your cheers do turn me on.
[02:27] Rubber
    I'm everyone's lover, Rubber Suit!
[02:35] Rubber
    On this lovely day on such a lovely planet,
[02:39] Rubber
    we will transcend our nationalities,
    races, and ideologies!
[02:43] Rubber
    Now, let us shout together!
[02:45] Rubber
    Are you ready?
[02:47] Rubber
    Happy planet!
[02:52] Zeno
    Rubber Suit.
[02:54] Zeno
    Because of his popularity,
[02:55] Zeno
    people say there couldn't be
    enough of him to go around, but...
[02:59] Zeno
    His ID number is 223373.
[03:02] Zeno
    He is a Borderlander,
    registered ten years ago.
[03:05] Brian
    Are you kidding me?
[03:07] Brian
    So everyone's going crazy over
    a monster or UMA or whatever?
[03:11] Lyra
    There are many Borderlanders
    in show business.
[03:13] Lyra
    Apparently Cutie, a popular model, is one, too.
[03:16] Cyrus
    I'm not too surprised.
[03:19] Robin
    I hear the action star Sler is one, as well.
[03:22] Robin
    The guy from Mountainous Pecs.
[03:24] Bolts
    Sler is? Are you serious?
[03:27] Brian
    So what about Rubber Suit?
    Why are we investigating him?
[03:31] Zeno
    Because it's possible that
    he has the crystal skull.
[03:35] Brian
    Crystal skull?
[03:38] Zeno
    This is a list of the ingredients used in Confu,
    the drug that was made in Jukai.
[03:42] Zeno
    It contains a traditional
    hallucinogenic mushroom
[03:44] Zeno
    that was used in the ancient Aztec Empire.
[03:47] Cyrus
    This was the lab, or what's left of it.
[03:51] Cyrus
    It seems like you were refining it
    to increase its effectiveness,
[03:55] Cyrus
    via a ritual rather than scientific process.
[04:00] Bennett
    The skull.
[04:02] Zeno
    What?
[04:03] Bennett
    We use the skull made of crystal.
[04:07] Bennett
    Take 300 grams of mushrooms,
    rub them with salt,
[04:10] Bennett
    and microwave them with
    the skull for three minutes.
[04:13] Bennett
    Then air them for three days, and the
     mushrooms' effectiveness doubles.
[04:17] Bennett
    They took back the skull every time, though.
[04:20] Cyrus
    Are you making fun of us?
[04:22] Bennett
    I don't like jokes.
[04:24] Bennett
    This is a plea bargain.
[04:26] Bennett
    I don't have a strong ideology,
    unlike a certain someone.
[04:30] Zeno
    And this certain someone is...
[04:32] Bennett
    Right, it's Rubber.
[04:35] Bennett
    Only a limited number of people
    have the crystal skull.
[04:39] Bolts
    Also known as the "ET Skull."
[04:42] Bolts
    Most of the crystal skulls
    in circulation are fakes,
[04:45] Bolts
    but they say this one is different.
[04:49] Cyrus
    "OOPArts," or out-of-place artifacts.
[04:51] Robin
    As in, "If you collect seven of them,
    it'll destroy the world"?
[04:55] Brian
    That sounds shady as hell.
[04:58] Theodore
    After it was discovered
    in a ruin in South America,
[05:01] Theodore
    it was housed in the British Museum.
[05:04] Theodore
    But it was stolen a few years ago, and some
    intel says it fell into Rubber Suit's hands.
[05:10] Lyra
    Rubber is well known
    as an avid occult collector.
[05:13] Brian
    He may be, but that's not
    nearly enough to go after him.
[05:16] Zeno
    We'll know if it's enough or not
    after we investigate him.
[05:20] Zeno
    There's no decency left in this world
    if a clown like this is a world-famous star.
[05:24] Brian
    I... wouldn't go that far.
[05:26] Robin
    I don't feel a shred of rock 'n' roll from the guy.
[05:29] Robin
    Wouldn't you say, brother?
[05:31] Bolts
    Do you think I like rap?
[05:34] Bolts
    You're absolutely right!
[05:36] Peck
    Brain-energizing reggae is the best!
[05:41] Lyra
    I think jazz is the best.
[05:42] Cyrus
    I'm partial to classical music myself.
[05:45] Theodore
    You can't forget country music.
[05:48] Robin
    Punk rock is the bomb!
[05:50] Brian
    So? What kind of music do you like?
[05:53] Zeno
    The kind that's silent.

[06:01] Security Guard
    Excuse me, how can we help you?
[06:04] Bolts
    We're here to inspect the gas lines.
[06:06] Security Guard
    I see.
[06:10] Zeno
    Here are the photos of
    the inside from our recon.
[06:13] Zeno
    The crystal skull is most likely
    stored in the basement vault.
[06:17] Zeno
    There are four layers of security measures.
[06:20] Zeno
    A passcode is required at
    the door in front of the vault.
[06:23] Zeno
    Fingerprint and iris authentication, too.
[06:25] Zeno
    Finally, an electronic key owned only
    by Rubber to open the door of the vault.
[06:30] Lyra
    It's better-guarded than a nun's chastity.
[06:34] Robin
    But I'd say no woman is
    an impregnable fortress.
[06:37] Cyrus
    I can't say that I agree with you there.
[06:40] Brian
    Anyhow, it looks like we'd
    have to tackle them one by one.
[06:45] Rubber/I
    Anything for the sake of freedom!
[06:47] Rubber/I
    Fight for the world!
[06:50] Lyra

    of money to various charity organizations.

    Here you go!
[07:01] Robin/I
    Man, Rubber is absurdly popular.
[07:04] Robin/I
    He's a hero to the immigrants.
[07:16] Rubber
    The rampant spread of drugs
    should not be taken lightly.
[07:19] Rubber
    But the drugs themselves
    are not to be blamed.
[07:25] Cyrus/I
    Politically, he leans toward the radicals,
    and he approves of drug deregulation.
[07:31] Zeno
    He seems to have a strong ideological bias.
[07:34] Zeno
    With that said, we have his ID number,
    fingerprints, and iris pattern.
[07:40] Zeno
    We still don't have the electronic key,
    but we're on to the next phase of the plan.
[07:42] Zeno
    We still don't have the electronic key,
    but we're on to the next phase of the plan.
[07:44] Brian
    Sure, but why do I have to
    pretend like I'm some celebrity?
[07:48] Bolts/I
    It's fate.
[07:50] Cyrus/I
    You lost the lottery.
[07:52] Robin/I
    Obviously I'd upstage the star.
[07:55] Lyra/I
    Don't worry, I'll guide you through it gently.

    Color me honored.
[08:01] Brian
    Hopefully I don't get eaten alive.
[08:03] Zeno/I
    Stop whining and make sure to
    prepare what you were asked.
[08:08] Brian
    Well, I'm sure they think it's
    uncool to follow trends, but...

    That's what being uncool is, if you ask me!

    He's an idiot.

    Looks like the items from the auction
    were brought to the vault already.
[10:59] Zeno
    Yes.
[11:00] Zeno
    Mission start.
[11:02] Zeno
    We'll start with the surveillance
    camera in front of the vault.
[11:06] Isabella
    Keep your eyes peeled. Don't
    even miss a single glass of drink.
[11:09] Isabella
    If you find anyone remotely suspicious,
    respectfully ask them to leave...

    this world.

    I've hacked into the surveillance system.
[11:24] Lyra
    The same footage will be
    repeated for five minutes.
[11:28] Lyra
    I'm sure they won't notice
    right away, but do hurry up.
[11:33] Zeno
    The newbie will head to
    the front of the vault.
[11:35] Zeno
    Bolts and Robin, take your positions.
[11:39] Robin
    This is perfect for weight training.
[11:41] Bolts
    Bulk, pump, muscle!

    Now, the problem is the electronic key.

    Bolts, cut the power to the security system.

    But don't let anyone
    in the mansion notice.

    Hey, hurry it up!

    I'm gonna be cut into pieces!

    C-Can I ask you something?
[13:07] Bolts
    What is it?
[13:08] Robin/I
    Is there a point in my holding this rope?

    What?!

    I need to get going soon, too.

    You there. What the hell are you doing here?
[15:22] Brian
    Uh, I... I was looking for the bathroom.

    That's one cheap-looking tux.

    Maybe it's hidden away in a different place.

    If it were me, I'd keep it
     with my training equipment.
[15:52] Lyra
    Has it possibly been moved elsewhere already?

    The rest of us will continue with the mission.
[17:15] Lyra
    Mixing the skull in the drink, huh?
[17:18] Robin
    Is that why everyone's so high?
[17:20] Cyrus
    We'll have to draw everyone's
    attention to steal it.
[17:26] Robin
    Why don't you show off
    the rap you're so good at?
[17:28] Bolts
    Why don't you do your own gig?
[17:30] Lyra
    How about some classical music?
    There is a piano.
[17:33] Cyrus
    It doesn't suit the atmosphere.
[17:35] Cyrus
    There must be some other song that works.

    I wouldn't say I'm "a fan."
[19:59] Cyrus
    I just happened to know the song.
[20:00] Bolts
    I'm conflicted, as a fan.
[20:02] Robin
    Don't just come out and say it!
[20:03] Brian
    But why did he do it?
[20:05] Brian
    He's a star who has everything.
[20:08] Brian
    Using the drug would be one thing,
    but manufacturing it...
[20:11] Theodore
    Anyhow, we now have no doubt that
    this skull was used to create the drug.
[20:18] Theodore
    If we keep interrogating Rubber,
    everything will—
[20:20] Zeno
    It's pointless.
[20:23] Zeno
    That man is not Rubber himself,
    but a body double.
[20:26] Team
    What?!
[20:28] Brian
    A body double?
[20:30] Lyra
    The lookalike who stands
    in for stunts and rehearsals?
[20:35] Zeno
    And he's a normal human.
[20:37] Zeno
    He was hired three years ago,
    but he doesn't know any details.
[20:41] Robin
    Are you serious?
[20:42] Cyrus
    Then the real Rubber is...
[20:44] Zeno
    Must be off vacationing somewhere else.
[20:47] Zeno
    Either he was prepared for this bust,
    or he uses his body double on a daily basis.
[20:54] Zeno
    Whatever the case might be,
    I guess that's what a star does.
[20:57] Zeno
    Damn it.

    I've been meaning to ask...
    How'd you end up with this job?
[03:45] Brian
    You used to be a detective, right?
[03:47] Zeno
    I owe Theodore a favor.
[03:50] Zeno
    And I was fed up with my work as a detective.
[03:52] Brian
    That's surprising to hear
[03:54] Brian
    from the legendary investigator known
     far and wide as "Perfect Order."

    A snake still moves without its head.

    Because they lost Rubber, they
    may be behaving more radically.

[15:50] Zeno
    There's something I need to confirm.
[15:57] Robin
    The "Goshiki Fudo"?
[15:58] Lyra
    What's that?
[16:00] Theodore
    A couple of centuries ago,
[16:01] Theodore
    a shogun in Japan tried to erect
     a barrier around the capital,
[16:05] Theodore
    and as advised by a famous monk,
    he built five Fudo, or temples to Acala.
[16:09] Theodore
    They're located in Meguro,
    Mejiro, Meaka, Meki, and Meao.
[16:15] Cyrus
    These locations...
[16:16] Bolts
    ...coincide with where the bombings happened.
[16:19] Theodore
    Until a few years ago, there was
    a Meguro Fudo where this base stands.
[16:23] Bolts
    Flowers of the colors associated
    with each of the Fudo exploded,
[16:27] Bolts
    and a burst of flames in
    the same colors went up.
[16:30] Robin
    Which means...
[16:31] Cyrus
    The bomber caused explosions at each
    Goshiki Fudo for some sort of ritual?
[16:35] Theodore
    There's no doubt about it.
[16:38] Lyra
    Then Zeno and Brian went to...
[16:41] Theodore
    The Goshiki Fudo were established according to
    the theory of yin-yang and the five elements.
[16:47] Theodore
    So connecting these locations
    will reveal another location.
[16:55] Theodore
    It's Kami-no-Miya Stadium.

[17:22] Izuna
    There used to be a small stele here.

    Do you know what was carved on it?

[17:35] Brian
    It's a tengu.

    That's right.
[17:42] Izuna
    My ancestor was a collaborator
[17:43] Izuna
    of High Priest Tenkai, who put up
    a barrier using the Goshiki Fudo.
[17:48] Brian
    But that's just a myth.
[17:51] Izuna
    How do you know that it's
    a myth and not the truth?
[17:55] Izuna
    Myths, superstitions, delusions...
[17:58] Izuna
    These are how humans describe the existence
    and achievements of us Borderlanders
[18:03] Izuna
    to bury us in history.
[18:06] Brian
    And to complain, you went
    for terrorist bombings?
[18:08] Brian
    Find some other way to self-promote.
[18:11] Izuna
    Of course, it was meant
    to make our presence known.
[18:15] Izuna
    But the true objective was elsewhere.
[18:19] Izuna
    It was to protect.
[18:20] Brian
    To protect?
[18:22] Izuna
    From redevelopment and land rezoning.
[18:24] Izuna
    The original landscapes
    of Japan that are being lost,
[18:27] Izuna
    and marks of Borderlander presence
    that are being erased...
[18:31] Izuna
    He was trying to use the Goshiki Fudo
    barrier to protect those, I suspect.
[18:36] Brian
    You "suspect"?
[18:38] Zeno
    So it was Rubber's orders?
[18:40] Izuna
    Yes, he sent me a new song that
    was not yet released for sale.
[18:44] Izuna
    It was a 45 RPM vinyl record.
[18:46] Izuna
    The lyrics implied that we
    needed to cause the bombings.
[18:50] Izuna
    "Exploding at Goshiki Fudo,
    in yellow, white, black, red, and blue."
[18:55] Zeno
    Enough. Shut up.
[18:59] Zeno
    I don't care what the perv pop star
    is planning. I just know it ends now.
[19:03] Izuna
    Yes, seems like it.
[19:13] Brian
    I agree that we need to arrest him.
[19:16] Brian
    It is our job to capture Borderlanders.

    But...

    Hey! Something got delivered upstairs!

    Oh, perhaps it's the

    I don't have good memories of Christmas.
[00:05] Brian/I
    Because that's the day my father, who was
    a traveling entertainer, disappeared.

    I've been appointed the new Santa Claus,
     so I'm leaving
[00:14] Brian/I
    The darts I got as a present
[00:17] Brian/I
    became symbols of how merciless love can be.
[00:24] Brian/I
    Ever since then, I hate to
    even see Santa Claus's face.
[00:29] Brian/I
    That said, if it's a sexy Santa,
    that's a whole other story.

    No way... Not another bomb?!
[02:35] Brian
    What the hell is this?!
[02:37] Robin
    This is... pretty amazing.
[02:40] Cyrus
    It gave me heartburn first
     thing in the morning.
[02:42] Bolts
    It's the best Christmas present.
[02:45] Brian
    There's no good reason why
    I should be harassed by a Santa!
[02:47] Lyra
    Then who sent this to you?
[02:49] Brian
    Who knows? Must be from a throwaway account.
[02:52] Robin
    Speaking of which, I got...
[02:55] Cyrus
    And I received...
[02:57] Brian
    What?! I don't remember being
    chased around by paparazzi!
[03:01] Robin
    This one also has a random sender name.
[03:03] Cyrus
    Is someone harassing the Marginal Service?
[03:07] Cyrus
    Someone sent us a bomb last time.
[03:09] Peck
    A bomb?! Where?! Not again!
[03:12] Lyra
    These photos must be from a webcam
    or a surveillance camera, right?
[03:18] Theodore
    We got something over here, as well.

    "Yippee-ki-yay"? Oh, this is
    from the film Die Hard.
[03:25] Lyra
    Wait! Don't open it!
[03:29] Brian
    Th-This is...
[03:31] Peck
    Are you serious?!
[03:32] Peck
    That fricking cat!
[03:33] Peck
    That's revenge porn!
[03:36] Lyra
    I don't care who you're flirting with.
[03:38] Lyra
    But at this rate, the Marginal Service
    will have to be dissolved.
SIGN    Sending Data
[03:42] Cyrus
    "Sending Data"? Don't tell me..
[03:43] Lyra
    Yes, that was a sort of stepping stone.
[03:46] Robin
    After the bomb attack, it's a cyber-attack?
[03:49] Brian
    Just how deep is their grudge against us?
[03:51] Bolts
    This could be another
    one of Rubber's schemes.
[03:54] Cyrus
    If data about the Marginal Service
    and Borderlanders gets leaked...
[03:57] Theodore
    It will cause a huge panic.
[04:00] Theodore
    We must stop—
[04:01] Lyra
    I'm working on it, okay?
[04:04] Zeno
    Move!
[04:10] Zeno
    Now we've stopped it.
[04:12] Lyra
    I could have blocked it in three seconds,
[04:14] Lyra
    but because a chair came flying by...
[04:18] Lyra
    The defense system is completely down,
    and now we can't stop the data leak.
[04:22] Announcement
    Emergency security activated.
[04:24] Announcement
    Shutting down the entire system.
[04:31] Theodore
    The line here is linked with
    the Borderlander holding facility.
[04:35] Theodore
    If it's shut down...
[04:42] Zeno
    Everyone, head out to the field.
[04:47] Bolts
    This is...
[04:48] Robin
    Obviously over capacity!
[04:50] Zeno
    It's because you're too big. Get over it.
[04:54] Brian
    Hey, you're going too fast!
[04:56] Lyra
    There's a possibility that other major
    facilities, not just us, will get attacked.
[05:01] Lyra
    We can't let him do whatever he wants.
[05:04] Brian
    Him? You mean Rubber?
[05:18] Lyra
    The machine at this place
    is the best in Shibujuku.
[05:20] Brian
    And what drinks? Is there an open bar?
[05:23] Lyra
    For now, just lend me your phone.
[05:26] Brian
    My phone? Why?
[05:28] Lyra
    Just give it to me!
[05:30] Brian
    Jeez, what the heck...
[05:33] Lyra
    Back-tracing the photo of Bolts...
[05:36] Lyra
    The sender is encrypted, and it
    goes through several terminals.
[05:41] Cyrus
    It's outstanding work.
[05:49] Brian
    Hey, what about my privacy?!
[05:52] Lyra
    We can narrow down the
    possible senders to these.
[05:55] Guard
    D-Don't move!
[05:58] Bennett
    I only scratched my butt.
[06:00] Sakaki
    Of course, now that the electronic
    lock is down, we can easily get out.
[06:05] Guard
    T-Try anything funny, and...
[06:08] Bennett
    You'll kill us with that?
[06:10] Bennett
    But we're Borderlanders who are hard to kill.
[06:14] Zeno
    We may not kill you, but it'll slow you down.
[06:17] Robin
    Stay quiet until the system is restored.
[06:20] Bolts
    Like a bronze statue of Hercules.
[06:30] Lyra
    I'm not used to these heels.
[06:33] Brian
    How does she move like that
    with such a tiny body?
[06:37] Brian
    She's tough.
[06:38] Cyrus
    Judging someone based on
    their physical characteristics?
[06:42] Cyrus
    You're rather old-fashioned.
[06:45] Brian
    I mean, if she has that much skill,
[06:47] Brian
    wouldn't she be better off
    working for YBM or something?
[06:51] Brian
    Who is Lyra, anyway?
[06:53] Cyrus
    They say she was a Russian sparrow.
[06:55] Brian
    For real?!
[06:56] Cyrus
    Or a professor at MIT.
[06:58] Brian
    Professor?!
[07:00] Cyrus
    Some even say she's French royalty.
[07:02] Brian
    Which is it?!
[07:03] Cryus
    Your guess is as good as mine.
[07:05] Cryus
    Isn't that the same for all of us
    at the Marginal Service?
[07:08] Brian
    Yeah...
[07:09] Brian
    I guess so.
[07:13] Brian
    Is this the right place?
[07:16] Cyrus
    Isn't it just a deserted church?
[07:18] Lyra
    Look.
[07:21] Cyrus
    A surveillance camera and an automatic gun.
[07:25] Brian
    Doesn't seem like a simple
    place to pray to God.
[07:28] Lyra
    Since I'm a goddess, I get a free pass.
[07:36] Brian
    Whoa, what the hell?!
[07:38] Cyrus
    Is that chaff?
[07:39] Lyra
    Yup! Electronic countermeasures are
    something every lady needs to know.
[07:43] Brian
    It even smells nice.
[07:53] Technician A
    Hold on!
[07:54] Technician A
    We're with the Security Agency!
[07:56] Brian
    Huh?
[07:57] Lyra
    It's a top-secret SIGINT agency that
    intercepts all the world's information.
[08:02] Cyrus
    Who would've believed it actually existed?
[08:04] Technician A
    It's nothing to be surprised about.
[08:07] Technician A
    We're the ones who send the Marginal
    Service their intel on Borderlanders.
[08:12] Lyra
    Kind of like ECHELON, whose existence
    is not officially acknowledged.
[08:17] Brian
    ECHELON?
[08:18] Cyrus
    It's an American intercept facility that
    became a hot topic a couple of decades ago.
[08:23] Cyrus
    In the end, it was written off as
    something of an urban legend.
[08:26] Brian
    Disguising these things as conspiracies
    seems to be pretty common.
[08:30] Lyra
    More importantly, our system was hacked.
[08:34] Lyra
    The email that triggered it
    was sent from here.
[08:39] Technician A
    Actually, a part of our system was hacked.
[08:43] Technician A
    The damage was minimal,
    and we blocked the hacker,
[08:45] Technician A
    but we haven't been able to
    identify who sent the virus.
[08:50] Lyra
    Shit!
[08:54] Brian
    Wh-What's happening?!
[08:56] Lyra
    It's being controlled remotely!
[09:04] Brian
    Remote control?
[09:06] Brian
    Does that mean the creep shots
     of Bolts and me were...
[09:09] Lyra
    They must have hacked the street
    surveillance cameras and home webcams.
[09:13] Brian
    Th-That's way too high tech!
[09:15] Lyra
    It's the dark side of living in an IT society.
[09:18] Lyra
    We have to catch him as soon as we can.
[09:21] Brian
    So you do know who's responsible?
[09:24] Lyra
    The only hacker who could crack
    this system is Eddie Snow.
[09:29] Brian
    Eddie? Who's that?
[09:32] Lyra
    My ex-boyfriend.
[09:36] Theodore
    Eddie Snow...
[09:37] Theodore
    ID number FJ3659339G. A Borderlander.
[09:43] Theodore
    He seems to have been in Russia as a
    white-hat hacker until three years ago.
[09:48] Peck
    A white-hat hacker? More like a mothercker.
[09:51] Peck**
    I can't believe my Lyra
    was dating a Borderlander.
[09:55] Theodore
    Currently, there is no law that prohibits
    romance between humans and Borderlanders.
[10:00] Theodore
    You're a Borderlander yourself.
[10:02] Peck
    That's why I'm jealous!
[10:08] Lyra
    With Eddie, I worked on a security
    system associated with the KGB.
[10:13] Lyra
    It didn't take long for us
    to end up in a relationship.
[10:17] Brian
    Why did you break up? Did he cheat on you?
[10:19] Lyra
    He got... sick.
[10:23] Lyra
    With an incurable disease that caused
    his body to gradually become immobile.
[10:26] Lyra
    I tried to support him, but...
[10:29] Lyra
    He disappeared on me.
SIGN    BRUNO WILLS
[10:34] Lyra
    Now that I think about it, maybe he
    wanted to hide that he was a Borderlander.
[10:41] Cyrus
    Then you didn't know that
    he wasn't human until...
[10:43] Lyra
    Until Theodore told us just now.
[10:47] Lyra
    I mean, I knew something was off.
[10:49] Lyra
    I was going to marry him if we had a child,
    but there was no sign of that happening.
[10:54] Cyrus
    It's difficult for humans
    and Borderlands to crossbreed.
[10:58] Cyrus
    Which is only natural since
    we have different genes.
[11:00] Lyra
    He was no different from
    a human guy in bed, though.
[11:04] Brian
    I don't need the details, thank y—
[11:08] Cyrus
    Hey, safety first!
[11:10] Brian
    Don't yell at me! They careened into us!
[11:13] Driver
    Oh, yeah, I got us a table at a three-star
    restaurant, so look forward to it.
[11:18] Navigation
    The reservation has been canceled.
[11:19] Driver
    Whoa!
[11:21] Lyra
    God, this sucks. I hit my chin.
[11:24] Brian
    Oh, damn it!
[11:25] Brian
    They're all bunch of idiots!
[11:26] Lyra
    Look out!
[11:28] Brian
    Are you kidding me?!
    What happened to yellow?!
[11:31] Cyrus
    Another one's coming!
[11:32] Brian
    Hold on, is this...
[11:35] Cyrus
    The cars and the traffic lights are rigged?
[11:38] Lyra
    Looks like the electronic devices
    nearby are being controlled.
[11:41] Brian
    Which means...
SIGN    YOU ARE ALL IDIOTS
[11:45] Brian
    Hey! Do something!
[11:47] Cyrus
    W-Well, there's no real harm done.
[11:51] Brian
    Damn it! Shut up!
[11:53] Siri/I
    You shut up, dumbass.
[11:55] Brian
    What?! Who are you calling a dumbass?!
[11:58] Cyrus
    No need to be angry at the machine.
[12:01] Lyra
    Just take us to the destination.
[12:03] Lyra
    Distracted driving is against the law.
[12:05] Brian
    Our navigation's all over the place, too!
[12:07] Siri
    Your face is all over the place.
[12:09] Brian
    Oh, shut up! Or I'll smash you!
[12:11] Siri
    Oh...
[12:13] Brian
    What?!
[12:14] Brian
    I just upgraded it...
[12:16] Cyrus
    Maybe take this opportunity
    for a digital detox?
[12:18] Brian
    Easy for you to say!
[12:20] Lyra
    Either way, it looks like we won't need
    to depend on machines from here.
[12:27] Bennett
    Let's put an end to this staring contest.
[12:29] Robin
    Just a little more until
    the system's restored.
[12:32] Sakaki
    If the power is out, why don't you
    bring out a cake with some candles?
[12:36] Sakaki
    Borderlanders have the right
    to enjoy Christmas.
[12:40] Bolts
    But Santa only comes to good boys and girls.
[12:45] Guard
    It's for you.
[12:46] Guard
    I didn't know anyone still sent telegrams.
[12:51] Zeno
    You and I need to talk.
[12:53] Zeno
    Depending on your answer,
    you might get a cheap cake.
[12:59] Cyrus
    Isn't this the biggest internet
    base station in Shibujuku?
[13:04] Brian
    How sure are you that this Eddie guy is here?
[13:06] Lyra
    The church had a very strong security system.
[13:10] Lyra
    There are limited ways to breach it.
[13:14] Fire Fighter A
    No entry past this point.
[13:16] Fire Fighter B
    There was an alert about a poisonous gas leak.
[13:19] Brian
    That alert was falsified.
[13:22] Brian
    We're special agents.
    Please get out of our way.
[13:25] Fire Fighter A
    The Marginal Service?
[13:28] Brian
    Ask the United Nation for the details.
[13:34] Brian
    Damn it!
[13:35] Brian
    It opened just a minute ago!
[13:38] Lyra
    I guess we're still being watched.
[13:43] Lyra/I
    I know it's you, Eddie.
[13:45] Eddie
    Hmph.
[13:47] Lyra
    Open up. I just want to talk a bit.
[13:51] Eddie/I
    I can't trust you.
[13:53] Eddie/I
    I haven't seen you in ten years.
[13:57] Lyra
    I promise we're only here to talk.
[13:59] Lyra
    I'll have my reindeer wait here.
[14:01] Brian
    Who are you calling a reindeer?
    My nose isn't red!
[14:05] Eddie
    Where's the proof that
    you aren't here to harm me?
[14:18] Cyrus
    Now your nose is red.
[14:20] Brian
    Sh-Shut up!
[14:21] Lyra/I
    I'm unarmed.
[14:23] Lyra/I
    Unless you consider nudity to
    be a woman's weapon, of course.
[14:30] Eddie/I
    Just you.
[14:43] Lyra
    It's been a while.
[14:44] Lyra
    Did you lose weight?
[14:46] Eddie
    I don't know.
[14:47] Eddie
    You're even more beautiful than I remember.
[14:50] Lyra
    Most men compliment me
    when I look like this.
[14:54] Eddie
    I don't lie.
[14:56] Eddie
    In this day and age, not even your heart
    or thoughts are safe from prying eyes.
[14:59] Lyra
    And you took control of the internet
    around here to blow the whistle on society?
[15:05] Eddie
    Yes. I woke up to social justice.
[15:10] Eddie
    We once believed that a highly developed
    network could open a new door of knowledge.
[15:17] Eddie
    It was the birth of AI,
    artificial intelligence.
[15:20] Eddie
    But it turns out the government only used it
    to tighten up monitoring and management.
[15:25] Eddie
    Anything foreign is either removed
    or pushed into the margins of society.
[15:29] Eddie
    Privacy and individual freedom are
    non-existent, especially for Borderlanders.
[15:34] Eddie
    We've made no progress from Orwell's 1984.
[15:37] Lyra
    The 80s were a good time.
[15:40] Lyra
    The action films in particular
     were the best, right?
[15:42] Eddie
    Films aside, I can't accept a society like this.
[15:46] Eddie
    The Japanese government must experience
    the discomfort of being watched.
[15:51] Lyra
    If you don't like being watched, why
    don't you try to live more openly, like me?
[15:56] Eddie
    You haven't changed at all.
[15:59] Eddie
    So beautiful and intelligent...
[16:04] Lyra
    You're pointing a gun at
    someone who's unarmed?
[16:07] Eddie
    You're hiding a gun on your back, aren't you?
[16:10] Lyra
    Wow... So you noticed.
[16:13] Eddie
    You stripped to distract me from it.
[16:16] Eddie
    Like in the last scene of the
    action movie we used to love.
[16:21] Eddie
    I wish we could watch it together again.
[16:26] Lyra
    That's too bad.
[16:28] Lyra
    I would never—
[16:32] Sakaki
    So fragile.
[16:33] Sakaki
    This is why we can't rely on machines.
[16:36] Eddie
    You are...
[16:38] Lyra
    A Borderlander in custody.
[16:40] Lyra
    His special characteristic is
    the ability to become invisible.
[16:42] Sakaki
    No offense, but they told me they'd
    reduce my sentence if I cooperated.
[16:46] Lyra
    No matter how the network develops,
    there are still things you can't see.
[16:56] Eddie
    What a shame. I wish the two of us
     could talk more about old times.
[17:02] Lyra
    What is this?
[17:03] Lyra
    Are you the same type of Borderlander?!
[17:05] Sakaki
    No, this is...
[17:08] Lyra
    A hologram?
[17:10] Eddie
    My actual body is long gone.
[17:13] Eddie
    Because of the disease,
    I couldn't maintain my physical body!
[17:16] Sakaki
    Wha—
[17:22] Eddie
    Borderlanders are difficult to kill,
    so it's not a problem, right?
[17:25] Eddie
    Although we can't beat sickness and death.
[17:27] Lyra
    So you're a computer ghost?
[17:29] Lyra
    Looks like catching you is impossible.
[17:31] Eddie
    As you know, a massive amount of
    information collected from the network
[17:36] Eddie
    becomes the basis of AI as big data.
[17:39] Eddie
    This body is but a phantom made from
    my memories and intercepted data,
[17:44] Eddie
    but it's the product of my
    unwavering will and knowledge.
[17:48] Eddie
    That's why it can influence the world.
[17:52] Lyra
    Don't tell me...
[17:54] Eddie
    Yes. It's set up so that a
    malicious virus will spread
[17:59] Eddie
    as soon as my mind
    accesses the network system.
[18:03] Eddie
    Connected devices will be
    completely destroyed,
[18:07] Eddie
    along with everything from the
    Borderlander management system
[18:09] Eddie
    to most major infrastructure.
[18:12] Eddie
    The world itself will collapse.
[18:17] Lyra
    And how do we stop that?
[18:22] Eddie
    Tell me... that you love me again.
[18:27] Eddie
    If I can have that, I will disappear
    with a beautiful memory in my heart.
[18:32] Lyra
    Memory...
[18:51] Lyra
    I can still remember the three years
    I spent with you so clearly.
[18:57] Eddie
    Lyra...
[18:59] Lyra
    But...
[19:00] Lyra
    the past...
[19:04] Lyra
    is the past!
[19:08] Lyra
    Days gone by...
[19:10] Eddie
    W-Wait, hear me o—
[19:12] Lyra
    ...will not come back!
[19:14] Eddie
    Don't do it!
[19:18] Lyra
    I'm not interested in tales of the past.
    I live in the present.
[19:24] Eddie
    You really haven't changed at all.
[19:34] Brian
    Lyra!
[19:35] Brian
    Wh-What's going on?
[19:38] Cyrus
    You didn't hold back at all, did you?
[19:41] Sakaki
    J-Just send me back to prison.
[19:44] Sakaki
    That woman is crazy...
[19:46] Lyra
    Oh, I only showed him
    how transient love can be.
[19:51] Brian
    Man, Christmas is scary.

    If he didn't want an Orwellian society,
    why didn't he just destroy it?
[20:16] Peck
    He obviously wanted to get my
    Lyra's attention, you dummy!
[20:20] Brian
    What?! That's all?!
[20:22] Lyra
    More or less, I guess.
[20:24] Cyrus
    All he did was harass Brian,
    now that we think about it.
[20:28] Robin
    You're telling me the guy
    was jealous of him?!
[20:30] Bolts
    But why Brian?
[20:32] Brian
    That's because I'm good-looki—
[20:34] Zeno
    No.
[20:35] Zeno
    I looked into all the communication
    channels he was involved in.
[20:39] Brian
    Is this Rubber's?
[20:41] Zeno
    He misunderstood your relationship with Lyra
[20:44] Zeno
    because he was in the AI security
    system at Rubber's mansion.
[20:49] Brian
    Hold on, that means...
[20:51] Zeno
    Yeah. Eddie Snow was connected to Rubber.
[20:55] Zeno
    And he left a clue.
[20:58] Zeno
    Rubber ran away to...
SIGN    Higashino Island
[21:01] Zeno
    this island.
[21:15] Rubber
    I'm so ready for them to find me.

[00:03] Brian/I
    Everyone has their own past.
[00:06] Brian/I
    And most of the time,
    it's a past with bad memories.
[00:12] Brian/I
    In my case, what I did to
    be helpful backfired on me,
[00:18] Brian/I
    and everyone ignored me.
[00:22] Brian/I
    In any case, after I became a cop and
    came to Japan, I made some friends.
[00:30] Brian/I
    The shitty times from my past
    are now bittersweet memories.
[00:38] Brian/I
    So maybe the experience of getting
    attacked by an incredibly large shark
SIGN    Boobs for a Marmot, Air Tank for a Shark
[00:42] Brian/I
    will someday be... a good memory?
[02:21] Zeno
    Eddie Snow was connected to Rubber.
[02:25] Zeno
    And he left a clue.
[02:27] Zeno
    Rubber ran away to this island.
[02:30] Brian
    Higashino Island.
[02:32] Robin
    A volcanic island that formed 15 years ago.
[02:35] Zeno
    There was a flight record for
    Rubber's Cessna in Snow's AI.
[02:41] Zeno
    There is no doubt that
    Rubber headed to that island.
[02:44] Thedore
    The island is located
    within the Dragon Triangle.
[02:48] Brian
    The Dragon Triangle?
[02:49] Theodore
    A very popular area among occult fans.
[02:52] Theodore
    It's also called the Devil's Sea, and many
    ships and airplanes go missing in that area.
[02:57] Brian
    Why did Rubber go to a place like that?
[02:59] Brian
    Is he gonna hide there until things calm down?
[03:02] Lyra
    I'd choose the Maldives, at least.
[03:05] Bolts
    I want to go to Skull Island.
[03:07] Bolts
    I want to see King Kong.
[03:08] Robin
    Then just look in the mirror.
[03:10] Bolts
    Hm? Don't you mean look at you?
[03:13] Robin
    Shut up!
[03:15] Brian
    Anyhow, we'll have to go to the island.
[03:17] Brian
    I can't wait to catch that bastard!
[03:20] Cyrus
    I'd rather stay here, actually.
[03:22] Brian
    Oh, don't be a drag!
[03:24] Cyrus
    I don't like the outdoors.
[03:26] Cyrus
    And the blazing sun is the worst.
[03:28] Brian
    Huh? That's the problem
    with puny wimps like...
[03:33] Zeno
    A medical team is essential in survival.
[03:39] Cyrus
    I'll need fail-safe bug repellent and sunscreen.
[03:42] Cyrus
    If anything happens to my skin,
    I'm applying for worker's comp.
[03:45] Brian
    Don't worry.
[03:47] Brian
    As long as you don't forget
    to bring that, you're good.
[03:50] Cyrus
    Bring what?
[03:51] Brian
    A pair of swim trunks, obviously!
[04:03] Cyrus
    You're not here to work, are you?
[04:05] Brian
    Look! Dolphins!
[04:07] Robin
    Oh, yeah! They're like mermaids!
[04:09] Bolts
    Such lean muscles!
[04:12] Lyra
    Can someone help me put on my sunscreen?
[04:15] Peck
    At your service!
[04:17] Lyra
    Your claws are too long, so no thanks.
[04:19] Peck
    Please! Can't you see these plump paw pads?!
[04:22] Cyrus
    So what about this is the Devil's Sea?
[04:26] Cyrus
    Why can't we land already?
[04:27] Zeno
    I would if I could.
[04:29] Zeno
    But the tide is ebbing right now.
[04:31] Zeno
    Trying to land would shred the hull.
[04:33] Curus
    Then we could have taken a chopper.
[04:35] Zeno
    It got destroyed in the mission in Jukai.
[04:38] Zeno
    We haven't gotten a replacement.
[04:40] Cyrus
    Kinda cheap for a UN-affiliated organization.
[04:44] Brian
    We're newly established. What can ya do?
[04:47] Brian
    Anyhow, there's only one thing we can do now.
[04:50] Cryus
    What's that?
[04:51] Brian
    Fishing, obviously!
[04:56] Brian
    The time limit is one hour!
[04:58] Brian
    Everyone buys a drink for whoever
    catches the biggest fish!
[05:01] Robin
    Leave it to me!
[05:03] Robin
    I'll catch Moby Dick!
[05:05] Bolts
    Can I use protein as bait?
[05:08] Brian
    Use whatever! Now fish!
[05:09] Cyrus
    I'll pass, actually.
[05:11] Cyrus
    I don't like seafood.
[05:13] Lyra
    Oh, you don't like slimy stuff?
[05:15] Brian
    You can't touch fish? A city boy
    through and through.
[05:19] Cyrus
    Fish are apparently more intelligent than
    we think, but they're still far inferior to us.
[05:25] Brian
    You can be so standoffish.
[05:27] Robin
    I see what you did there!
[05:33] Lyra
    Looks like a nice haul.
[05:36] Peck
    Look, my Lyra! An octopus!
[05:40] Bolts
    Four of us are tied right now.
[05:42] Robin
    What, you came up empty?
    Like the inside of his head?
[05:46] Brian
    Calm down, Brian.
[05:48] Brian
    Get too impatient, and the fish'll know...
[05:50] Brian
    and I got a bite!
[05:52] Brian
    This is big, man!
[05:56] Lyra
    Wow, that sure is impressive.
[05:58] Robin
    Is it bigger than Peck's wiener?
[06:00] Peck
    Mine's a hundred times bigger than that!
[06:03] Bolts
    I'd say it contains an estimated
     two grams of protein.
[06:05] Brian
    Sh-Shut up!
[06:06] Brian
    I caught it to use as bait!
[06:08] Brian
    With this, I'll catch a bigger—
[06:12] Robin
    Come on! Let go of your rod!
[06:14] Peck
    You'll get dragged in!
[06:15] Brian
    Screw that! It's a big one! I'm gonna win!
[06:17] Lyra
    Now's not the time for that!
[06:19] Robin
    Give it up! It's too big!
[06:21] Brian
    No! This is my catch! I'm keeping it!
[06:24] Cyrus
    What are you going to do?
[06:25] Zeno
    Nothing. I'll be grateful if it drags him away.
[06:26] Robin
    Let it go!
[06:29] Robin
    D-Damn it, at this rate...
[06:31] Lyra
    Someone, cut the fishing line!
[06:32] Peck
    Got it!
[06:37] Brian
    Hey, that's obstruction!
[06:39] Brian
    We gotta do it over!
[06:41] Lyra
    I'm sorry, but I don't think
    we have time for that.
[06:43] Brian
    Huh?
[06:46] Robin
    Is it eight meters or nine?
[06:49] Bolts
    No, at least ten meters.
[06:51] Brian
    Man, we needed a bigger ship.
[06:54] Cyrus
    A shark?
[06:55] Zeno
    No, it's...
SIGN    Borderlander
[07:00] Zeno
    An aquatic Borderlander.
SIGN    Borderlander
SIGN    Borderlander
SIGN    Borderlander
SIGN    Borderlander
[07:07] Zeno
    Bruce Gillman.
[07:08] Zeno
    A Borderlander who disappeared
    from Japan a year ago.
[07:11] Brian
    So that's his real form.
[07:15] Brian
    He doesn't need to take
    a human form, I guess.
[07:17] Robin
    Leaving the country illegally and
    enjoying a leisurely swim in the sea?
[07:21] Lyra
    According to his record, he's hopping
    from place to place, job to job.
[07:25] Bolts
    Perhaps he couldn't adjust to human life.
[07:29] Zeno
    He probably couldn't fit into society
    and had nowhere to belong.
[07:33] Zeno
    His type are everywhere.
[07:43] Peck
    Is he trying to eat us?!
[07:45] Robin
    Do Borderlanders eat humans?!
[07:47] Bolts
    Maybe he doesn't want to get captured?!
[07:51] Lyra
    Then why doesn't he just run?
[07:53] Lyra
    The ocean is big!
[07:54] Cyrus
    Whether he's a shark or a man,
    he's clearly in a state of extreme confusion.
[07:59] Brian
    The boat's not gonna last!
[08:02] Brian
    What do we do?!
[08:03] Zeno
    There's only one thing we can do.
[08:05] Zeno
    Time to hunt sharks.
[08:14] Brian
    Take this!
[08:18] Brian
    Damn it, he's so fast!
[08:19] Cyrus
    The shark's top speed is supposed to
     be around 50 kilometers per hour,
[08:23] Cyrus
    but that specimen is far superior.
[08:27] Robin
    Out of my way!
[08:29] Robin
    This is how you hunt a shark!
[08:34] Robin
    Hm? That's odd.
[08:36] Robin
    The shark is supposed to chomp
    on the tank so I can shoot at it.
[08:39] Bolts
    What's odd is your head.
[08:41] Lyra
    Move.
[08:42] Lyra
    This is a stun grenade made
    from the ship's battery!
[08:45] Lyra
    It should knock out any fish!
[08:58] Lyra
    Seriously?!
[08:59] Lyra
    He saw through my move?!
[09:00] Robin
    Being a Borderlander, he has
    human-level intelligence.
[09:03] Cyrus
    Or higher.
[09:05] Bolts
    Move! I'm Ahab!
[09:13] Brian
    Those are some sharp teeth!
[09:14] Robin
    That was a steel harpoon!
[09:17] Brian
    Crap!
[09:18] Brian
    Are you kidding me?!
[09:30] Brian
    Hey! It ate the squirrel!
[09:32] Robin
    Squirrel? You mean the rat?
[09:34] Lyra
    Wasn't he a badger?
[09:35] Zeno
    Forget him!
[09:36] Zeno
    Peck is a Borderlander who can
    adjust to all kinds of environments.
[09:39] Zeno
    He won't die so easi—
[09:44] Brian
    Hey, don't let go!
[09:46] Zeno
    I'd rather get eaten by a shark
    than have to hold your hand.
[09:59] Brian
    Zeno!
[10:08] Brian
    Are you kidding me?!
[10:11] Cyrus
    Zeno kicked an organ behind its nose
    called the ampullae of Lorenzini.
[10:14] Cyrus
    That's a shark's weakness.
[10:16] Robin
    And he spotted it right away?!
[10:18] Bolts
    As expected of Zeno.
[10:20] Brian
    That had to be a coincidence!
[10:21] Zeno
    As if. Everything is according
    to my calculations.
[10:24] Brian
    Then you could have started
    with the attack to the weak spot!
[10:27] Brian
    And I tried to save you!
[10:30] Zeno
    I didn't ask.
[10:31] Brian
    Could you be any nastier?!
[10:33] Lyra
    I don't think we have time to argue here!
[10:38] Brian
    Something's wrong.
[10:40] Robin
    Did his rage drive him to madness?
[10:42] Cyrus
    I don't think that's his true form.
[10:45] Cyrus
    Perhaps...
[10:47] Zeno
    This is our chance.
[10:48] Zeno
    Isn't there something we can do?
[10:50] Zeno
    A doctor must know about other animals.
[10:53] Zeno
    You do seem to have a particular
    interest in that shark.
[10:57] Cyrus
    He's covered with scales as
    hard as teeth on the outside,
[11:01] Cyrus
    but I don't think his inside is the same.
[11:02] Cyrus
    A well-placed explosive
    could inflict serious damage.
[11:06] Zeno
    You mean...
[11:07] Brian
    We need to shove a bomb in his mouth?
[11:11] Lyra
    But how are we gonna get him to open wide?
[11:13] Robin
    He didn't bite my air tank.
[11:15] Bolts
    He didn't care for my protein bait, either.
[11:18] Brian
    What he's eaten so far is...
[11:22] Peck
    Jeez, so fishy.
[11:26] Peck
    If I hadn't escaped through his gills,
[11:27] Peck
    I would've been inside his stomach
    for the rest of my life!
[11:32] Peck
    What? What?
[11:39] Lyra
    Please, my sweet little badger.
[11:41] Lyra
    You're our last hope.
[11:44] Peck
    Lyra... I'm not a badger!
    I'm a marmot-type Borderlander!
[11:48] Peck
    Ow! Ouch! It's digging into my crotch!
[11:50] Brian
    Hey, keep quiet!
[11:52] Cyrus
    Isn't there another way?
[11:54] Zeno
    No.
[11:55] Zeno
    This is the final answer.
[11:57] Zeno
    If you don't want to blow up in his stomach,
    shove it in his mouth before he can eat you.
[12:02] Peck
    Thanks for your concern!
[12:04] Brian
    That will explode ten seconds
    after you let it go.
[12:07] Brian
    So you'd better get away quick!
[12:16] Robin
    Here he comes!
[12:17] Brian
    Look tasty!
[12:18] Peck
    How the hell do I do that?!
[12:24] Peck
    He's coming!
[12:29] Peck
    Smile, damn it!
[12:35] Peck
    Marginal explosion!
[12:38] Cyrus
    Stop!
[12:42] Zeno
    H-Hey!
[12:43] Lyra
    That fricking badger!
[12:44] Zeno
    Jump!
[12:55] Brian/I
    I'm blacking out...
[13:19] Zeno
    How long are you gonna lie there?
[13:21] Zeno
    Stand up already.
[13:23] Brian
    Where are we?
[13:25] Zeno
    This is Higashino Island.
[13:26] Brian
    We washed up here?
[13:29] Brian
    What happened to that shark?
[13:31] Zeno
    He's disappeared for the moment.
[13:33] Zeno
    Didn't even take the bait.
[13:36] Peck
    My Lyra...
[13:37] Brian
    We gotta look for the others.
[13:45] Brian
    H-Hey!
[13:47] Brian
    So Rubber is on this island.
[13:50] Zeno
    I'm sure he's moved elsewhere already.
[13:53] Zeno
    This whole thing could be a setup.
[13:56] Brian
    He lured us here to feed us to the shark?
[14:00] Zeno
    It's quite possible.
[14:02] Zeno
    I guess I took his bait.
[14:05] Lyra
    Zeno! Brian!
[14:08] Peck
    My Lyra!
[14:09] Peck
    Oh, my Lyra!
[14:10] Brian
    Are you guys okay?
[14:12] Lyra
    Somehow.
[14:13] Brian
    Where are the others?
[14:15] Lyra
    I don't know where Bolts and Robin are.
[14:17] Lyra
    Maybe they were swept far away.
[14:19] Brian
    I'm sure they can handle it, but...
[14:23] Zeno
    Why did you get in the way of our plan?
[14:25] Cyrus
    I'm sorry, okay?
[14:27] Zeno
    I'm asking for an explanation, not an apology!
[14:29] Brian
    Hey, that's enough.
[14:30] Zeno
    We were so close.
[14:32] Zeno
    But because of him, everything is ruined!
[14:35] Brian
    It might be, but you could
    ask a little more nicely.
[14:47] Brian
    Wh-What's going on?!
[14:50] Lyra
    He seems to be in pain.
[14:51] Brian
    From the explosion?
[14:53] Zeno
    Move. I'll finish him.
[14:57] Zeno
    Out of my way!
[14:58] Brian
    Hey, watch out!
[15:00] Cyrus
    I knew it.
[15:03] Cyrus
    This is most likely a brain tumor.
[15:05] Brian
    What?
[15:06] Lyra
    What do you mean?
[15:07] Cyrus
    Rotational motion in one
    direction, bulging eyes...
[15:13] Cyrus
    These are symptoms of
    brain tumors in wild animals.
[15:17] Cyrus
    The pressure in the hypothalamus
[15:19] Cyrus
    and the frontal lobe is
    impairing his judgment.
[15:24] Brian
    Wh-What are you going to do?
[15:27] Cyrus
    What do you think? Surgery, of course.
[15:38] Cyrus
    It's hard.
[15:41] Brian
    Is he Black Jack or something?
[15:43] Lyra
    But he looks good.
[15:46] Zeno
    Why are you trying to save him?
[15:48] Cyrus
    Why?
[15:49] Zeno
    Because you see yourself in him?
[15:53] Zeno
    When the base was under cyberattack,
[15:56] Zeno
    locked information on the members of the
    Marginal Service became available to view.
[16:00] Zeno
    I checked your background, too.
[16:04] Cyrus
    That's unexpected. You seem like
    you have no interest in others.
[16:08] Brian
    For real. That's stalking!
[16:13] Zeno
    Cyrus N. Kuga.
[16:15] Zeno
    Born to a wealthy doctor's
    family in the States,
[16:18] Zeno
    you graduated at the top of your class
    from Harvard Advanced Medical School.
[16:22] Zeno
    You were once a promising scholar.
[16:26] Zeno
    But you dabbled in forbidden cloning,
    and got banned from medical practice.
[16:34] Zeno
    Money, status, fame,
    your family's expectations...
[16:40] Zeno
    You lost them all.
[16:44] Zeno
    Ever since then, you've practiced medicine
[16:46] Zeno
    as a back-alley doctor
    in the underside of society.
[16:49] Zeno
    And having no place to belong, you were
     picked up by the Marginal Service.
[16:54] Cyrus
    You got it right, more or less.
[17:00] Zeno
    I'll ask you again.
[17:01] Zeno
    Are you helping that shark
    because you see yourself in him?
[17:04] Cyrus
    I'm not sure myself.
[17:08] Cyrus
    But as a doctor, I can't just let him die.
[17:13] Cyrus
    There are things you can't let go,
    even if you lose everything.
[17:21] Zeno
    But it won't change the past.
[17:23] Cyrus
    That's exactly why.
[17:26] Cyrus
    Because I can't change my past,
[17:30] Cyrus
    I want to do the best I can right now.
[17:54] Zeno
    Are you finished?
[17:55] Cyrus
    Yes, the surgery was a success.
[17:57] Brian
    You're pretty amazing.
[18:01] Lyra
    Theodore chartered a high-speed boat.
[18:04] Lyra
    We need to go look for Bolts and Robin.
[18:06] Brian
    What do we do with him?
[18:08] Cyrus
    He might be a Borderlander,
    but it'll take him a while to recover.
[18:12] Cyrus
    I can't leave him alone.
[18:18] Peck
    My Lyra, help!
[18:25] Brian
    Who are they?
[18:26] Merfolk Leader
    We'll take care of him.
[18:29] Merfolk Woman
    Leave the rest to us.
[18:35] Zeno
    Other aquatic Borderlanders?!
[18:38] Lyra
    But it's strange.
SIGN    Unregistered
[18:40] Lyra
    There's no data on them.
[18:42] Zeno
    Unregistered individuals.
[18:44] Zeno
    There are Borderlanders living
    here outside of our control!
[18:48] Merfolk Leader
    We live in the ocean.
[18:51] Merfolk Woman
    We can't coexist with humans.
[18:55] Brian
    They don't have a place to belong, either.
[19:03] Merfolk Leader
    I thank you.
[19:04] Merfolk Leader
    He came here six months ago.
[19:07] Merfolk Woman
    He'd been in a state of confusion since a
    few weeks ago, but we couldn't help him.
[19:16] Cyrus
    Looks like he does have friends.
[19:18] Brian
    Yeah, seems so.
[19:20] Lyra
    They could be the reason why there are
    occult-related rumors about this area.
[19:25] Zeno
    Hold on.
[19:27] Zeno
    Managing Borderlanders is our job.
[19:30] Brian
    You can't be serious, right?
[19:32] Brian
    Read the room. We should
    look the other way here.
[19:34] Zeno
    I'm not reading anything.
[19:35] Zeno
    I will also do the best I can do now.
[19:39] Zeno
    So...
[19:42] Zeno
    I will register all of you and Gillman,
    with your residence being this island.
[19:47] Brian
    Yup, that's so you.
[19:50] Merfolk Leader
    Do as you please.

    You can't take away our freedom.

    By the way, we saw someone suspicious.
[20:18] Merfolk Leader
    He was dressed in a skin-tight suit.
[20:20] Zeno
    What?!
[20:21] Brian
    Could it be... Rubber?
[20:24] Merfolk Leader
    He took two men who wore
    the same uniform as you.
[20:29] Merfolk Leader
    About four hours ago.
[20:32] Merfolk Leader
    They went to the Rock Island.
[20:39] Lyra
    Bolts and...

    ...Robin have been...

[00:01] Brian/I
    Most fights start with something trivial.
[00:05] Brian/I
    Like if chikuwabu is a thing or not.
[00:11] Brian/I
    Just like the famous duo
    of cat and mouse,
[00:13] Brian/I
    the closer you are,
    the more fights you'll have.
[00:18] Brian/I
    Anyhow, what's great about fighting
    is that you get to make up.
[00:31] Brian/I
    With that said, there are fights
    that are simply lost causes.
SIGN    Making Up Is the Beginning of Another Fight
[02:09] Brian
    Saving a princess is one thing,
    but saving King Kong...
[02:15] Zeno
    Yeah, and make that two of them.
[02:18] (Flashback) Merfolk Leader
    By the way, we saw someone suspicious.
[02:21] (Flashback) Merfolk Leader
    He was dressed in a skin-tight suit.
[02:24] (Flashback) Merfolk Leader
    He took two men who wore
    the same uniform as you.
[02:28] (Flashback) Merfolk Leader
    They went to the Rock Island.
[02:31] Theodore/I
    Grampus Island.
[02:33] Theodore/I
    Like Higashino Island,
    it's considered a phantom island.
[02:38] Theodore/I
    The Imperial Japanese army
    used to have a secret base there,
[02:41] Theodore/I
    but it was abandoned after
    the war and became a ruin.
[02:45] Theodore/I
    Because of the magnetic disturbance
    caused by the Dragon Triangle,
[02:48] Theodore/I
    it wasn't even on the nautical
    chart until recent years.
[02:53] Brian
    And Rubber made it his hideout.
[02:56] Lyra/I
    Brian, I'm leaving those two to you.
[02:59] Lyr
    Sea water doesn't agree with my skin.
[03:02] Cyrus
    I got too much sun, as well.
[03:04] Peck
    Bring back coconuts as a souvenir.
[03:10] Brian
    They ditched us at a way-stop!
[03:13] Brian
    And what happened to using a high-speed boat?!
[03:16] Brian
    Ow!
[03:17] Zeno
    This boat is inconspicuous.
[03:19] Zeno
    We infiltrate without being detected
    and finally catch Rubber this time.
[03:24] Brian
    It's been over two days since
    Robin and Bolts were taken.
[03:29] Brian
    I hope they're safe.
[03:31] Zeno
    Those two are tough.
[03:33] Zeno
    They won't die.
[03:48] (Flashback) Soldier 1
    Bolts, we've been ordered to retreat!
[03:50] (Flashback) Bolts
    What?!
[03:51] (Flashback) Soldier 1
    The enemy found out our location!
[03:53] (Flashback) Bolts
    But that's too soon!
[03:55] (Flashback) Soldier 1
    That red-headed woman betrayed us.
[03:58] (Flashback) Bolts
    She did?!
[04:01] (Flashback) Soldiers
    Take cover! Take cover!
[04:03] (Flashback) Soldier 1
    An air strike! Hurry!
[04:10] (Flashback) Bolts
    Wait! Where is he?!
[04:14] (Flashback) Soldier 1
    Bolts, what are you doing?!
[04:17] (Flashback) Bolts
    I don't see him!
[04:18] (Flashback) Bolts
    He's not here yet!
[04:34] (Flashback) Bolts
    Don't go! Come back!
[04:39] Bolts
    Ernie!
[04:51] Rubber
    You're breaking out in cold sweat.
[04:53] Rubber
    Did you have a sad dream?
[04:56] Bolts
    If you're going to kill me, just do it.
[04:58] Rubber
    Kill you?
[05:02] Rubber
    This is the height of miscommunication.
[05:05] Rubber
    All of you are misunderstanding me.
[05:07] Rubber
    Thinking about who's in the wrong or
    having to destroy the other and whatnot...
[05:14] Rubber
    We all struggle equally in this world.
[05:17] Rubber
    There's pain in everyone's heart.
[05:21] Rubber
    But lotus flowers bloom out of the mud.
[05:27] Rubber
    That's what I wish to see.
[05:30] Bolts
    I have no interest in listening
    to a crazy terrorist.
[05:35] Rubber
    I just want them to be strong.
[05:38] Rubber
    Humans, Borderlanders, all living things...
[05:45] Rubber
    Including you.
[05:52] Rubber
    Your friends will soon
    tell you why you are here.
[06:06] Brian
    Duck, man! What if they see you walking—
[06:09] Brian
    Huh?
[06:12] Brian
    Hey! What the heck?!
[06:14] Brian
    Shh! Don't bark!
[06:22] Zeno
    Even a dog can tell who's dumb.
[06:25] Brian
    Why does it like you?
[06:28] Zeno
    You want to play fetch, too?
[06:30] Brian
    If you want to get bitten, why don't you try?
[06:39] Zeno
    Let's go.
[06:40] Brian
    You devil.
[06:47] Robin
    Just a bit more...
[06:53] Robin
    Why won't it open?!
[06:57] Bolts
    Damn it!
[07:06] Robin
    Huh?
[07:11] Robin
    Come to think of it, where's Bolts?
[07:18] Robin
    I guess he's all right.
[07:20] Enemy Soldiers
    I found them!
[07:22] Enemy Soldiers
    Catch them!
[07:23] Enemy Soldiers
    This way!
[07:24] Enemy Soldiers
    You bastards!
[07:26] Robin
    Game...
[07:27] Bolts
    ...start!
[07:50] Bolts
    You took down seven?
[07:52] Bolts
    I got eight.
[07:55] Robin
    I took down eight, and you did seven.
[07:58] Robin
    Can't you do simple math?
[07:59] Bolts
    You're the one who has a bad memory.
[08:03] Robin
    Hey now, I know you want
    to act tough and all,
[08:06] Robin
    but it's also important to
    learn how to admit defe—
[08:11] Bolts
    An octopus-type Borderlander.
[08:13] Robin
    Could be the legendary kraken.
[08:16] Robin
    I mean, if you insist,
    I guess you can take this one.
[08:20] Bolts
    No need to be modest. It's all yours.
[08:23] Robin
    No, no, you go ahead.
[08:25] Bolts
    After you.
[08:31] Brian
    Not here!
[08:32] Brian
    Where the hell are they, damn it?!
[08:34] Zeno
    Stop barking.
[08:35] Zeno
    There's a chance they got out on their own.
[08:38] Brian
    And what, now they're having
    a nice lunch somewhere?!
[08:40] Brian
    Yeah, like hell!
[08:57] Robin
    Borderlander or not, we can take them down
    with our bare hands if we put our backs into it.
[09:03] Bolts
    Mostly thanks to me, of course.
[09:06] Robin
    Well, you weren't too bad, I suppose.
[09:13] Robin
    But if another one like that shows up,
    we'll be in trouble.
[09:16] Bolts
    Let's split up and look for weapons.
[09:19] Robin
    Don't you die.
[09:20] Bolts
    That's my line.
[09:30] Brian
    Wh-What the hell is this place?
[09:32] Zeno
    Looks like these are being shipped
    to conflict zones around the globe.
[09:36] Brian
    What?
[09:37] Zeno
    From drug cartels to regular armies,
    they sure had a lot of clients.
[09:42] Brian
    So Rubber was dealing weapons?
[09:46] Brian
    Isn't that what you call...
[09:47] Robin
    A merchant of death.
[09:54] Robin
    Even to the UK's Secret Intelligence Service?
[10:00] Robin/I
    Maria... Maria...
[10:04] (Flashback) Robin
    Maria!
[10:07] (Flashback) Maria
    Why did you come back?
[10:09] (Flashback) Robin
    You'll be fine, so no more talking.
[10:11] (Flashback) Robin
    I'll save you, no matter what!
[10:15] (Flashback) Maria
    What happened to the locals?
[10:17] (Flashback) Robin
    They all evacuated safely,
    thanks to your information.
[10:22] (Flashback) Maria
    I'm glad.
[10:25] (Flashback) Maria
    Y-You should go, too...
[10:28] (Flashback) Maria
    They will... Those guys from the
    Beowulf will come for revenge...
[10:50] (Flashback) Robin
    Damn it!
[10:55] (Flashback) Maria
    I'll buy you some time.
[10:57] (Flashback) Robin
    Maria, stop!
[11:01] (Flashback) Maria
    I won't make it with these wounds.
[11:05] (Flashback) Maria
    At least let me choose how I go out.
[11:08] (Flashback) Robin
    Maria...
[11:11] (Flashback) Maria
    I'll see you.
[11:13] (Flashback) Robin

    He killed... Maria...
[11:35] Bolts
    Robin... and that woman?
[11:41] Rubber
    What a fantastic harmony!
[11:45] Rubber
    This melody's hook is coming up soon.
[12:03] Robin
    You killed Maria!
[12:06] Bolts
    Ernie died because of you!
[12:14] Zeno
    We need more information.
    Let's search the south building next.
[12:18] Brian
    Hey, cut it out!
[12:20] Brian
    We should search for those two first!
[12:22] Zeno
    That they got captured is on them.
[12:26] Zeno
    Getting Rubber into
    custody is our top priority.
[12:28] Brian
    That's bullshit!
[12:29] Brian
    They're our friends!
[12:31] Brian
    And it only takes a second... to lose one.
[12:36] Zeno
    You're still hung up on your dead colleague?
[12:39] Zeno
    Existing side by side with death is part
    of the job for both detectives and us.
[12:43] Zeno
    Dying in the line of duty is all too common.
[12:45] Brian
    You...
[12:46] Zeno
    First of all, your colleagues are only
    connected to you through your work.
[12:51] Zeno
    Friends? Only a fool gets
    involved in such a relationship.
[12:56] Brian
    You bastard!
[13:03] Robin
    Die! This is for Maria!
[13:06] Bolts
    You have no right to criticize me!
[13:09] Bolts
    It's you who should die
    and apologize to Ernie!
[13:12] Bolts
    There's no other dog as sweet as Ernie was!
[13:15] Robin
    Dog?! Did you say a dog?!
[13:18] Robin
    I lost my woman!
[13:20] Bolts
    A dog is a man's best friend!
[13:22] Bolts
    They're more trustworthy than women!
[13:35] Brian
    What the heck is going on?!
[13:38] Zeno
    So it's finally come to this.
[13:40] Zeno
    I've always thought that
    they didn't get along.
[13:45] Zeno
    What a fool...
[13:54] Robin
    Who would have thought that
    we'd be naïvely working together?
[13:58] Robin
    I knew I didn't like you somehow.
[14:01] Bolts
    Right back at you. Seeing your
    face makes me want to hurl.
[14:33] Bolts
    Is that all you've got?
[14:36] Robin
    Doesn't hurt one bit.
[14:38] Bolts
    You... fake macho man!
[15:25] Rubber
    The fated battle between these two
    will approach its finale soon.
[15:32] Rubber
    What will they witness there?
[15:41] Robin
    I'm ready to settle this once and for all.
[15:45] Bolts
    With pleasure.
[15:59] Brian
    M-Marginal explosion...
[16:06] Brian
    I don't know what happened between
    you two, but isn't this enough?
[16:12] Brian
    What's great about fighting
    is that you get to make u—
[16:18] Bolts
    You stay out of this!
[16:20] Robin
    Back off!
[16:23] Brian
    I'm not gonna back down!
[16:26] Robin
    Move!
[16:27] Bolts
    Outta the way!
[16:49] Bolts
    Wh-What the hell are you?
[16:53] Robin
    You're a monster...
[16:57] Brian
    I just don't want to see anyone
    lose their friends anymore.
[17:08] Zeno
    I've never seen a fight
    more pointless than this.
[17:12] Bolts
    What did you say?
[17:13] Robin
    You don't know anything!
[17:15] Zeno
    Your woman is not dead.
[17:19] Robin
    What?
SIGN    ATLANTIS
[17:20] Zeno
    Maria Lakshmi runs a bar in a town
    by the sea in the Mediterranean.
[17:26] Robin
    Sh-She does look like Maria.
[17:30] Robin
    B-But that couldn't be true...
[17:32] Zeno
    It's a fact. Lyra got in touch with her earlier.
[17:38] Maria/I
    Robin, I knew we would meet again.
[17:42] Maria/I
    I wanted to tell you sooner,
    but back then, I didn't fight. I ran.
[17:49] Maria/I
    There was actually a secret passage there,
    so I could get away from the Beowulf.
[17:54] Maria/I
    After that, I got to live a whole different
    life thanks to the cooperation of the SIS.
[18:00] Maria/I
    I apologize for deceiving you.
[18:04] Maria/I
    But I'm happy now.
[18:06] Maria/I
    Stop by my bar when you're
    in the Mediterranean.
[18:12] Maria/I
    I recommend a Bloody Mary.
[18:16] Zeno
    As expected from a spy.
[18:18] Zeno
    She seems to be pretty skillful
    when it comes to faking her death.
[18:22] Brian
    I'm not sure what's going on, but the cause
    of the fight was a misunderstanding?
[18:27] Zeno
    That's why I said this fight was pointless.
[18:29] Brian
    A-Are you kidding me?!
[18:31] Brian
    Why didn't you tell me sooner?!
    I got beaten up for nothing!
[18:34] Robin
    E-Exactly!
[18:35] Robin
    Do you have any idea how
    much I've missed Maria?!
[18:39] Bolts
    Enough. Be happy that the one
    you love turned out to be alive.
[18:44] Robin
    Bolts...
[18:45] Bolts
    Unlike you, mine is...
[18:50] Brian
    Th-That ferocious dog!
[18:53] Bolts
    It can't be... Ernie?
[18:55] Brian
    Huh? Ernie?
[18:57] Robin
    It's the dog he used to have.
[18:59] Robin
    He said he lost him in a conflict zone.
[19:02] Bolts
    Ernie...
[19:05] Bolts
    Ernie!
[19:08] Bolts
    Ernie!
[19:13] Brian
    What's the meaning of this?
[19:15] Brian
    Ernie is alive, too?
[19:17] Brian
    What's he doing here, then?
[19:19] Zeno
    Military dogs are weapons, too.
[19:20] Zeno
    Perhaps Rubber, as an arms dealer,
    got hold of Ernie alive
[19:24] Zeno
    and used him to drive a wedge between you.
[19:26] Rubber
    Exactly!
[19:33] Rubber
    Great! Amazing! Fantastic!
[19:40] Rubber
    I cannot do justice to your
     fight with mere words.
[19:44] Rubber
    It was a wonderful show!
[19:48] Brian
    Screw you!
[19:56] Rubber
    Everyone has their fair share
    of pain and hatred from the past.
[20:01] Rubber
    There's always hardship blocking our way.
[20:09] Rubber
    So people insult and hurt one another.
[20:14] Rubber
    But...
[20:19] Rubber
    We still choose to hold down
    our anger, overcome our hatred,
[20:23] Rubber
    and connect with each other.
[20:25] Rubber
    Remember what our forerunners said...
[20:30] Rubber
    To forgive everything.
[20:37] Rubber
    Here is what that means.
[20:41] Rubber
    Marginal explosion!
[20:53] Bolts
    A white flag?
[20:55] Robin
    Is he trying to surrender?
[20:56] Zeno
    You bastard!
[20:57] Brian
    Are you screwing with us?!
[21:00] Rubber
    Ultimate beauty manifests
    itself beyond conflicts.
[21:06] Rubber
    It's the same for humans and Borderlanders.
[21:09] Rubber
    Even if we fight, we hold each
    other's hands and seek out...
[21:15] Rubber
    love!

    Also known as Area 51!
[02:37] Brian
    Don't say that like it's normal.
[02:40] Brian
    If I remember correctly,
[02:42] Brian
    this is... the Happy Mall.
[02:49] Robin
    They renovated a defunct shopping mall
    into a prison for Borderlanders.
[02:54] Cyrus
    The previous facility was
    damaged in the cyberattack.
[02:58] Lyra
    To protect Borderlander rights, they've been
     given a significant amount of freedom.
[03:03] Lyra
    Although they have to
    maintain their human forms.
[03:06] Robin
    It's more like a town than a prison.
[03:10] Brian
    Wow, there's a movie theater!
[03:12] Lyra
    And a nail salon, too.
[03:14] Bolts
    I see a gym.
[03:16] Bolts
    I want to see the equipment.
[03:18] Peck
    A dog park for pets!

    Observing the mall is fine and all,

    All right, let's... go...

    Okay, fine.

    I guess I have no choice.
[03:44] Rubber
    Sorry to ask when you're not feeling well,
[03:47] Rubber
    but could you return the items
    you confiscated when searched me?

    You mean this?
[03:53] Rubber
    That's right.
[03:55] Rubber
    It's a custom-ordered parfum,

[03:59] Zeno
    No.
[04:01] Rubber
    I suppose this is what you call

    Shut up already!

    We're here.

    Hmph! He's getting the VIP treatment, huh?

    First, confirm his data

    The infirmary is ready.

    It used to be a nursing room, though.

    What's with the dreary face?

    Did you have a nightmare on the chopper?

[05:18] Cyrus
    You were arrested on charges
     of committing terrorist acts
[05:22] Cyrus
    like the embassy bombing,
    as well as manufacturing drugs.
[05:26] Cyrus
    Any objections?
[05:27] Rubber
    Nope.
[05:29] Rubber
    If that's what you humans think,
[05:30] Rubber
    then those are the facts, regardless
    of whether or not they're true.
[05:34] Cyrus
    I need to do a blood test and take
    an EKG, so I'll take off your clothes.
[05:38] Rubber
    Oh, I think you'd better not.
[05:42] Rubber
    It's like the paradox
    of the ship of Theseus.
[05:45] Rubber
    This bodysuit is a crucial element
    of who I am right now.
[05:49] Rubber
    Take that away, and
    I won't be me anymore.
[05:53] Cyrus
    I have no interest in seeing a star naked.
[05:56] Rubber
    It's the butterfly effect.
[05:58] Rubber
    A small act has the potential
    to bring chaos to the world.
[06:03] Rubber
    Just as your past clings to
    and affects your present.
[06:08] Cyrus
    Past...
[06:10] Cyrus
    What do you know about me?
[06:12] Rubber
    You didn't have a place to belong because
    no one loved you back in those days.
[06:17] Rubber
    That sight continues to torment you now.
[06:21] Rubber
    No matter how much you try to shake it off,
     the feeling coils around you like thorns.
[06:27] Cyrus
    I'll refrain from idle talk.
[06:31] Robin
    Let's settle this once and for all!
[06:34] Bolts
    Bring it on!
[06:41] Lyra
    Well, well, you're surprisingly
    on-trend to be a prison laborer.
[06:46] Nail Stylist
    I pay attention to fashion.
[06:49] Nail Stylist
    I used to be a model out there.
[06:56] Brian
    You didn't have to choose
    the same movie as me.
[06:58] Zeno
    Then you can pick a different one.
[07:00] Brian
    The other movies are all horror flicks.
[07:09] Peck
    Whew! I'm hungry now that
    I've burned some calories.
[07:13] Peck
    I'll go to the food court later—
[07:17] Peck
    H-Hey! Excuse me!
[07:21] Peck
    Can't you hear me? Hey!
[07:23] Peck
    Could I try a sample of this?
[07:29] Peck
    You don't look so good.
[07:31] Peck
    Maybe you should go back to
    the prison and rest for a while...
[07:38] Man 1/I
    I've waited for this day for so long.
[07:40] Woman 1/I
    Yes... Me, too.
[07:44] Brian
    I'm so happy for those two...
[07:50] Brian
    What? It was just getting to the good part.
[07:58] Brian
    Isn't this...
[08:09] Brian
    What the heck is going on?!
[08:11] Zeno
    I don't care what the heck it is.
[08:14] Zombie 1
    Ouch!
[08:17] Zombie 2
    Stop!
[08:19] Brian
    Oh, man, they're the type
    of zombie that eats brains!
[08:22] Brian
    But actually, since these guys don't run,
    they're kind of closer to the original type...
[08:27] Zeno
    It doesn't matter!

    Hey, wait up!
[08:32] Zombie 3
    Damn it... How did it come to this?
[08:36] Zombie 4
    If only we had stopped it back then...
[08:43] Prison Guard
    Damn it!
[08:57] Brian
    H-Hey!
[08:58] Zeno
    Don't. It's pointless.
[09:05] Peck
    I'm not a rat... Not a rat!
[09:10] Brian
    It's the end of the world.
[09:20] Bolts
    Robin! We gotta get out of here!
[09:22] Bolts
    I'll settle the score with you la—
[09:24] Robin
    It's over... It's all over...
[09:28] Bolts
    Robin?
[09:29] Robin
    I'm better off dead.
[09:32] Robin
    Even Maria was deceiving me...
[09:34] Bolts
    What are you...
[09:38] Bolts
    M-Memories from my past...
[09:46] Bolts
    I'm so sorry.
[09:53] Bolts
    Forgive me, Ernie.
[09:56] Bolts
    I would have kept you if I could...
[10:04] Lyra
    Sorry, I fell asleep...
[10:07] Nail Stylist
    I must be more beautiful...
[10:09] Nail Stylist
    Why are Borderlanders not
    allowed to get plastic surgery?
[10:12] Lyra
    H-Hey, are you okay?
[10:14] Nail Stylist
    No... I must be more beautiful.
[10:17] Nail Stylist
    Your face is so beautiful!
[10:33] Brian
    Nowhere to run.
[10:35] Zeno
    Come!
[10:36] Brian
    What are you gonna do?
[10:46] Brian
    G-Good! Let's get out of here!
[10:48] Brian
    H-Hey, what the heck are you doing?!
[10:50] Zeno
    Shut up. I'll ask him questions.
[10:52] Brian
    Questions? You know they're zombies, right?
[10:55] Zeno
    What are you?
[10:56] Zeno
    Why do you attack others?
[10:58] Zombie 5
    Brains... Brains!
[11:01] Brian
    I told you!
[11:02] Brian
    If we don't run away now, we'll get eaten!
[11:06] Zombie 5
    I won't... eat you...
[11:09] Zombie 5
    But my brains hurt...
[11:11] Zeno
    What?!
[11:18] Zeno
    They seem to be attacking people
     because they're in pain.
[11:22] Brian
    Pain? What's causing it?
[11:26] Brian
    There are some over here, too...
[11:29] Brian
    Cyrus?!
[11:31] Cyrus
    Mom, Dad... I'm sorry I didn't
    meet your expectations.
[11:37] Brian
    Cyrus, it's me! Brian!
[11:39] Brian
    Snap out of it!
[11:40] Cyrus
    B-Bria—
[11:42] Brian
    That's right!
[11:43] Brian
    We're in the Marginal Service together!
[11:45] Cyrus
    M-Marginal?
[11:47] Cyrus
    I was a doctor...
[11:49] Brian
    Damn it, it's not working!
[11:50] Zeno
    No, wait.
[11:53] Cyrus
    It wouldn't have come to this
    if I had noticed it sooner.
[11:59] Brian
    A mask?
[12:01] Zeno
    So this is caused by some sort of gas?
[12:05] Brian
    Gas? But I don't smell anything.
[12:08] Zeno
    Most poisonous gases,
    like propane, have no odor.
[12:13] Zeno
    They add an odor to it in
    order to prevent accidents.
[12:17] Brian
    Then we might have already inhaled some?!
[12:20] Zeno
    Probably.
[12:21] Zeno
    We don't have any symptoms yet
    due to individual differences,
[12:24] Zeno
    or because the gas is a low concentration.
[12:26] Zombie
    My brains... hurt...
[12:32] Brian
    So zombies don't infect people by
    biting them, but through bad breath?
[12:37] Zeno
    We need to get some masks right now.
[12:44] Zeno
    I found them.
[12:46] Brian
    Hey, isn't this...
[12:55] Brian
    You've gotta be kidding me.
[12:58] Zeno
    Rubber's fragrance...
[13:00] Zeno
    His trait is causing them to become zombies!
[13:12] Rubber
    A little too spicy.
[13:18] Zeno
    Just as we thought.
    The zombies don't attack him.
[13:22] Zombies
    I'm sorry...
SIGN    Ice Cream
[13:23] Zombies
    Please forgive me. I'll do anything...
[13:27] Zeno
    He suppressed his scent with his suit,
[13:30] Zeno
    and neutralized its components
    with special perfume.
[13:33] Zeno
    I got sick on the chopper
    because I inhaled some of his gas.
[13:39] Brian
    What kind of gas turns people violent, though?
[13:42] Zeno
    It's not turning them violent. It's...
[13:45] (Flashback) Cyrus
    Mom, Dad... I'm sorry I didn't
    meet your expectations.
[13:51] Zeno
    It seems to be affecting parts of their
    memories, like regret and trauma.
[13:55] Brian
    I think I've heard of that.
[13:58] Brian
    It was based on some long novel or something?
[14:02] Zeno
    The Proust effect.
[14:04] Zeno
    It's when a scent triggers
    certain memories and emotions.
SIGN    Ice Cream
SIGN    Hamburgers
[14:08] Zeno
    Rubber's scent must be something
    close to an insect's pheromones.
[14:12] Zeno
    It affects the brains of those who inhale it,
    and triggers regret and trauma.
[14:17] Zeno
    It causes excruciating pain
    in those who experience it.
[14:21] Zeno
    I'm going to stop Rubber!
[14:23] Zeno
    Dredging up others' pasts...
[14:25] Brian
    H-Hey!
[14:27] Zeno
    ...makes him the shittiest of shits.
[14:35] Brian
    To get to him, we'll have to go through here.
[14:38] Zeno
    There are a lot of violent people here
    who inhaled Rubber's gas directly.
[14:42] Zeno
    As a result, the gas in this area is thick.
[14:45] Brian
    We're gonna have to rely on
    that method to get through here.
[14:48] Zeno
    What method?
[14:51] Brian
    Pretending to be a zombie!
[14:54] Brian
    Okay, just keep this up...
[14:58] Lyra
    Why...
[15:00] Lyra
    Why do I have such bad luck with men?!
[15:05] Zeno
    Hold your breath!
[15:13] Zeno
    Damn it!
[15:26] Brian
    You did that... for me?
[15:28] Zeno
    Give it back! We're taking turns.
[15:41] Brian
    Zeno!
[15:47] Brian
    S-Sorry. Are you all right?
[15:50] Zeno
    Damn it, I must've inhaled too much gas...
[15:54] Zeno
    No! Don't dredge up my past...
[15:56] Brian
    Hey! Pull yourself together!
[15:58] Zeno
    It's fine. Just leave me behind.
[16:01] Brian
    What are you—
[16:03] Zeno
    You're going to catch Rubber.
[16:07] Brian
    What are you talking about?!
[16:08] Brian
    You don't sound like yourself!
[16:10] Zeno
    Brian, you're a respectable member
    of the Marginal Service.
[16:15] Zeno
    I'm glad I got to fight alongside you.
[16:20] Brian/I
    Th-This isn't right.
[16:23] Brian/I
    There's no way Zeno would
    say stuff like this to me.
[16:25] Brian/I
    This isn't real.
[16:27] Brian/I
    This isn't...
[16:30] Brian
    This is...
[16:32] Brian
    Ow! What the heck!
[16:35] Brian
    The gas used my memories
    to create that delusion.
[16:40] Zeno
    Too bad.
[16:42] Zeno
    If you had fully turned into a zombie,
    I could've put a bullet in your head.
[16:45] Brian
    There it is!
[16:47] Brian
    That's the real you, who annoys me to death.
[16:58] Rubber
    A little too sweet.
[17:04] Rubber
    Oh, it's you again.
[17:07] Zeno
    Stop the gas!
[17:08] Zeno
    Right this second!
[17:10] Rubber
    You mean this?
[17:11] Rubber
    I can't control it myself.
[17:14] Rubber
    That's why I wear a suit all the time.
[17:16] Brian
    Then get in this bag and do not resist!
[17:20] Rubber
    Is that a vacuum storage bag?
[17:23] Brian
    Malls are convenient places.
[17:25] Brian
    You can find anything there.
[17:27] Rubber
    No offense, but I'm gonna say no
    to getting stuffed in a bag.
[17:30] Rubber
    I am a star, after all, and I'd like to
    continue to watch this scene unfold.
[17:36] Zeno
    Why do you make these Borderlanders suffer?
[17:39] Zeno
    Aren't you the leader of a
    Borderlander terrorist organization?
[17:42] Rubber
    I think you've got me all wrong.
[17:45] Rubber
    My wish is to unite the world by making every
     existence happy through song and dance.
[17:52] Zeno
    You think manufacturing
    drugs and causing destruction
[17:55] Zeno
    is for the good of the world?
[17:57] Zeno
    Don't make me laugh!
[17:59] Rubber
    That's because you humans
    don't understand Borderlanders.
[18:04] Rubber
    You always like to draw a line.
[18:06] Rubber
    But...
[18:08] Rubber
    Now there is no difference.
[18:10] Rubber
    I sense the united groove
    of the world from them.
[18:14] Zeno
    You're insane.
[18:17] Rubber
    Everyone lives with sorrow, and yet
    they try desperately to forget it.
[18:23] Rubber
    Don't you find that wrong?
[18:26] Rubber
    We become stronger by overcoming sadness.
[18:29] Rubber
    Being strong means being kind.
[18:31] Rubber
    Being kind brings peace to the world.
[18:34] Rubber
    The true peace where humans and
    Borderlanders can live hand in hand.
[18:39] Zeno
    And to achieve that, we should be zombies?
[18:41] Rubber
    It only hurts for a second.
[18:44] Rubber
    You'll feel better eventually.
[18:46] Rubber
    Look.
[18:50] Zombies
    I feel happy.
[18:50] Zombies
    We're okay now.
[18:53] Rubber
    That is the ultimate revelation.
[18:55] Rubber
    To rid the world of war, you must
     face sorrow and overcome it.
[19:00] Rubber
    That's the only way.
[19:02] Zeno
    Overcome?
[19:04] Zeno
    Overcome it?!
[19:06] Zeno
    There's no way you can overcome it.
[19:08] Zeno
    No matter how much you struggle,
    no matter how miserably you suffer...
[19:14] Brian
    You inhaled his gas!
[19:16] Zeno
    The past can hold memories you can't overcome.
[19:19] Zeno
    All we can do is to live with them.
[19:25] Zeno
    Yes... This world is full of shit!
[19:31] Rubber
    You'd rather live with sorrow
    than forget it and move on.
[19:36] Rubber
    If this is how you want to live,
    I won't oppose it.
[19:39] Rubber
    Someday, we can come to understand each—
[19:41] Brian
    Cut the crap already!
[19:42] Brian
    Do you ever shut up?!
[19:51] Brian
    I want to breathe normal air
    as soon as possible!
[19:55] Brian
    I need to take a deep breath!
[19:56] Brian
    Isn't that what it means to live?!
[20:03] Brian
    Who gives a shit about the past?
[20:08] Zeno
    Maybe... you're right.
[20:16] Theodore
    Marginal explosion.
[20:23] Theodore
    A countermeasure to deal
     with the odor pollution.
[20:25] Theodore
    We'll have to find another prison.
[20:28] Brian
    Is there any chance of recovery for them?
[20:30] Theodore
    Their brains don't seem to
    be permanently affected.
[20:33] Theodore
    Once the particles stuck on the
    mucous membrane are removed,
[20:35] Theodore
    they'll be back to normal.
[20:37] Theodore
    I'm sure they'll be in a state
    of shock for a while, though.
[20:39] Bolts
    I'm sorry.
[20:41] Bolts
    It was my fault.
[20:42] Robin
    I'm the one who should apologize.
[20:44] Robin
    I drink your protein without
    asking every now and then.
[20:48] Cyrus
    Me, too.
[20:49] Lyra
    Same here.
[20:50] Brian
    Well, maybe it wouldn't hurt for
    them to be that honest, at least.
[20:55] Zeno
    Anyway, what about him?
[20:57] Theodore
    Most likely, he'll be sent to an
    isolation facility above level five.
[21:03] Zeno
    As soon as he arrives,
    I'll start the interrogation.
[21:05] Zeno
    I haven't been able to get any infor—
[21:06] Theodore
    Listen to me.
[21:07] Theodore
    This is an order from higher up.
[21:11] Theodore
    They want us to back off from Rubber's case.
[21:15] Brian
    What?!
[21:16] Zeno
    What does that mean?!

    The Japanese say "ki-do-ai-raku" to
    express the range of human emotions.
[00:08] Brian/I
    But I find it strange.
[00:11] Brian/I
    I understand "anger" (do) and "sorrow" (ai).
[00:13] Brian/I
    Being angry and being sad
    are two different things.
[00:17] Brian/I
    But "pleasure" (ki) and "happiness" (raku)?
[00:20] Brian/I
    Rejoicing and having fun
    are basically the same, right?
[00:25] Brian/I
    If you really think about human emotions,
    there's a better idiom to describe them.
[00:32] Brian/I
    And that's "gi-do-ai-raku."
[00:37] Brian/I
    "Gi" means "to doubt," of course.

[02:22] Zeno
    The problem is that we're

    B-But what are we supposed to do?
[02:28] Theodore
    His existence itself is catastrophic.
[02:31] Theodore
    If we sneak him out without permission,

    I'm sure he's been placed

    And I'm asking where that is!
[02:40] Zeno
    Isn't the Marginal Service the

[02:44] Zeno
    If we can't speak with the mastermind
    of the terrorist group, we can't do our job!

    Where's the transmitter?
[06:04] Lyra
    His GPS should tell us his location.
[06:08] Zeno
    It'll be trouble if he finds out.
[06:10] Zeno
    He's an agent, after all.
[06:13] Lyra
    Then we'll just have to
    continue surveilling him like this.
[06:17] Cyrus
    May I ask you something,
    although it might be belated?
[06:20] Lyra
    If it's not something personal, sure.
[06:22] Cyrus
    Why a high school uniform?
[06:27] Lyra
    Because I wanted to wear it, of course.
[06:30] Cyrus
    But it's a bit of a stretch—
[06:32] Lyra
    You'd better stop speaking
    now, for your own sake.

    Robin here. Currently following the target.
[06:49] Robin
    He's headed toward downtown—
SIGN    UNDER CONSTRUCTION
[06:58] Robin
    Th-That was close.
[07:00] Worker
    Hey! What are you doing?!
[07:02] Bolts
    I dug a hole for you.
[07:03] Worker
    Huh?
[07:04] Robin
    It's on us!
[07:07] Zeno
    What business could he have here?
[07:10] Brian
    Maybe an occult goods vendor is here?
[07:13] Zeno
    No, he could be siphoning the confiscated
    Borderlander-related OOPArts
[07:16] Zeno
    into the black market.
[07:18] Brian
    That can't be true.
[07:28] Zeno
    He seems so restless.
[07:30] Zeno
    He must be hiding something.
[07:33] Brian
    Hey, maybe you should sit and rest...
[07:36] Zeno
    Shut up! We need to hurry, or we'll lose him.
[07:40] Brian
    It's all right. That's why we work as a team.
[07:44] Brian
    This is Brian.
[07:47] Brian
    Please continue tracking the target.
[07:54] Cyrus
    This is Cyrus.
[07:56] Cyrus
    He's at an arcade right now.
[07:59] Cyrus
    I don't think he's noticed
    that we're monitoring—
[08:14] Lyra
    Is your heart racing?
[08:16] Cyrus
    No... I'm used to stuff like this.
[08:22] Lyra
    So annoying.
[08:33] Cyrus
    I-It was part of the job.
[08:36] Cyrus
    Oh, no!
[08:38] Cyrus
    Shit! I lost h—
[08:45] Robin
    Lyra disappeared?
[08:47] Cyrus
    Yes. I can't find her anywhere.
[08:50] Cyrus
    I don't think she's gone too far.
[08:52] Robin
    Maybe she's using the restroom?
[08:54] Clerk
    Who ordered the protein shakes?
[08:57] Bolt
    That's me.
[08:58] Robin
    It's finally here!

    Don't let your guard down, amateur.

[09:17] Robin
    Then I should go somewhere to change...
[09:30] Robin
    Is that all you got?
[09:32] Bolts
    What?
[09:36] Bolts
    What's the matter?
[09:39] Robin
    Oh, he's on the move!
[09:42] Bolts
    You running away?
[09:44] Robin
    Just come on! Move it!
[09:47] Robin
    Where did he go?
[09:48] Bolts
    No, I want you to admit your defeat
    by saying, "I couldn't lift 300 kilograms."
[09:52] Robin
    Oh, shut up!
[09:54] Robin
    We'll split up. Hurry!
[09:57] Bolts
    Muscles grow when you exhaust them,
[09:59] Bolts
    and humans grow when they admit defeat.
[10:09] Zeno
    Now Bolts has gone missing.
[10:12] Brian
    How does a guy that huge go missing?
[10:15] Brian
    And no one's found Lyra yet, right?
[10:16] Zeno
    It's strange. Something
    unusual might be going on.
[10:20] Brian
    Something unusual...
[10:22] Brian
    So you think Theodore is causing it?
[10:31] Brian
    You can have the rest!
[10:33] Zeno
    Hey, where are you going?!
[10:35] Brian
    I found him! We'll meet back up later!
[10:40] Cyrus
    Lyra!
[10:42] Cyrus
    Sorry, my mistake.
[10:45] Girl
    What the heck? You're kinda cute.
[10:50] Cyrus
    Lyra! What are you doing here?
[10:57] Zeno
    Damn it!
[10:58] Robin
    Where the hell did Bolts go?
[11:03] Robin
    Excuse me. I'd like to ask you something.
[11:05] Robin
    Old man, over here.
[11:07] Robin
    Did you see a guy who's huge and
    unnecessarily shows off his muscles—
[11:17] Brian
    Hey!
[11:18] Brian
    Theodore! You owe us an explanation—
[11:22] Old Man
    The heck, man!
[11:23] Old Man
    Can't you wait until I get out?
[11:27] Brian
    I'm sure I saw...
[11:38] Zeno/I
    Cyrus, do you read me?

    We've been looking for you.
[12:28] Zeno
    You all...
[12:29] Robin
    Sorry, I got lost.
[12:32] Bolts
    I was late to join up after looking for him.
[12:35] Lyra
    I had a stomachache.
[12:38] Cyrus
    Me, too.
[12:40] Brian
    Are you all right?
[12:41] Brian
    You don't look so good.
[12:43] Zeno
    Y-Yeah...
[12:45] Brian
    About Theodore... Unfortunately,
    we all lost sight of him.
[12:50] Brian
    Let's just call it a day.
[12:53] Zeno
    What happened to your headsets?
[12:56] Brian
    I lost it while I was running. My bad!
[12:59] Robin
    Me, too!
[13:00] Cyrus
    So did I.
[13:01] Lyra
    I did, too.
[13:01] Bolts
    Same here.
[13:03] Zeno
    Look at this.
[13:06] Brian
    Ew, what is that?
[13:09] Zeno
    It's Theodore's face, which I picked up earlier!
[13:12] Brian
    Theodore? I guess that could look like him.
[13:15] Bolts
    You think so?
[13:16] Robin
    It looks nothing like him.
[13:18] Lyra
    Doesn't he look a little more tired?
[13:20] Cyrus
    In terms of facial structure,
    it doesn't look like him.
[13:22] Zeno
    It proves that someone
    was pretending to be him.
[13:26] Zeno
    Or maybe it's his shell.
[13:29] Zeno
    Most likely his mimicking ability.
[13:31] Zeno
    Must be the result of his
    repeated transformation.
[13:33] Robin
    A shell, huh?
[13:35] Cyrus
    Transformation...
[13:35] Brian
    So does that mean...
[13:37] Zeno
    Right. Theodore is not a human,
     but a Borderlander.
[13:43] Brian
    Zeno, why don't you sit down for a second?
[13:45] Zeno
    Shut up!
[13:47] Zeno
    He's hiding where Rubber is.
[13:50] Zeno
    Suppose he's secretly connected to
    Rubber because he's a Borderlander.
[13:54] Zeno
    Then it all makes sense.
[13:56] Zeno
    No, not just Theodore.
[13:59] Zeno
    The very existence of the
    Marginal Service is too suspicious.
[14:04] Zeno
    Are you all real?!
[14:11] Brian
    What are you trying to do?
[14:12] Zeno
    Blood test.
[14:14] Zeno
    Cyrus, hand me your surgical kit.
[14:16] Cyrus
    What?
[14:17] Zeno
    You always have it on you, right?
[14:22] Zeno
    The blood of a Borderlander
    must be different from a human's.
[14:27] Zeno
    That's what I'm going to check.
[14:29] Robin
    Wait, you don't need to go that far.
[14:31] Robin
    If you can use your phone to verify—
[14:34] Zeno
    Even if you're a Borderlander,
[14:36] Zeno
    if you aren't registered,
    verification could be difficult.
[14:38] Zeno
    Plus, the data or the phone
    could be tampered with.
[14:43] Zeno
    Instead, I'll take blood samples from everyone.
[14:46] Zeno
    Oh, I see.
[14:48] Zeno
    I guess it's natural to want to suspect me first.
[14:55] Zeno
    Who's next?
[14:56] Zeno
    If you're human, you have no reason to refuse!
[15:00] Robin
    F-Fine.
[15:02] Cyrus
    Okay, then.
[15:07] Brian
    Isn't there another way?
[15:10] Brian
    I don't like this stuff...
[15:13] Brian
    Wait, hang on a minute!
[15:16] Brian
    Wait, wait!
[15:17] Zeno
    Who's next?
[15:18] Brian
    I said I don't like it!
[15:18] Bolts
    I'll do it.
[15:22] Brian
    H-H-Hold on! Wait, wait...
[15:25] Brian
    Ouch!
[15:26] Zeno
    Make sure we got enough blood!
[15:28] Zeno
    If it's not enough, I'll cut you some more.
[15:31] Brian
    Okay, okay!
[15:33] Lyra
    I think I'll pass.
[15:35] Zeno
    What?!
[15:36] Lyra
    I don't want my finger to get infected,
[15:39] Lyra
    not to mention injuring myself is just—
[15:55] Robin
    Everyone's tests look normal.
[15:58] Bolts
    Nothing strange in their appearance, either.
[16:01] Brian
    Zeno...
[16:03] Brian
    I think you must be tired after all.
[16:05] Brian
    You still look really pale.
[16:07] Zeno
    Shut up!
[16:08] Zeno
    Borderlanders are hard to kill.
[16:10] Zeno
    If you consider that aspect of them...
[16:14] Zeno
    Let's try touching the blood with this.
[16:17] Zeno
    A Borderlander's blood should react somehow.
[16:20] Brian
    Haven't you done enough?
[16:21] Brian
    This isn't some sci-fi horror film, you know!
[16:24] Zeno
    I'll start!
[16:25] Brian
    Hey!
[16:32] Zeno
    Next!
[16:49] Brian
    Happy now?
[16:51] Brian
    Let's get back to the base and—
[16:52] Zeno
    Wait!
[16:53] Brian
    What else do you want?!
[16:55] Zeno
    It didn't react to heat, but maybe
    it will react to something else.
[17:04] Zeno
    Caffeine, arginine, and B vitamins.
[17:07] Zeno
    We starve the blood,
    then give it nourishment.
[17:10] Zeno
    Then carbonic acid!
[17:12] Zeno
    Carbon dioxide increases blood flow.
[17:14] Zeno
    That effect should help it
    return to its normal color.
[17:18] Zeno
    You're a doctor, so you
    must understand this, Cyrus.
[17:39] Zeno
    Why?!
[17:41] Brian
    Zeno...
[17:42] Brian
    It seems like you have a complicated past,
    so I get that you want to suspect us.
[17:46] Brian
    But doubting your team isn't
    going to solve anything.

    I'm not done yet!

[17:57] Zeno
    It goes without saying that garlic
    has the power to disperse evil.
[18:01] Zeno
    Traditionally, it was used
    against vampires, as well.
[18:04] Zeno
    Borderlanders are equivalent
    to monsters and UMAs.
[18:08] Zeno
    So it must work against them, too!
[18:10] Zeno
    Eat this! Now!

[18:15] Cyrus
    I think this is where...

    ...we draw the line.
[18:18] Zeno
    Hey.

[19:29] Peck
    What? Was it so much of a surprise
    that it stopped your heart?
[19:33] Theodore
    I figured you would resist, so I was
    preparing the party on my own,
[19:37] Theodore
    but it drew unnecessary suspicion.
[19:39] Robin
    So he told us about the plan.
[19:42] Cyrus
    While we were tailing him.
[19:44] Theodore
    It was difficult to try to get
    everyone involved one by one
[19:48] Theodore
    without you finding out.
[19:51] Zeno
    And that is...
[19:51] Theodore
    Oh, some new merchandise.
SIGN    Legendary Commander
[19:54] Theodore
    They were ready for delivery today,
    so I went to the vendor to pick them up.
[19:58] Robin
    But you gave us a scare
    when you dropped one.
[20:02] Cyrus
    Because of that, Zeno became
    even more suspicious.
[20:05] Lyra
    Seriously unacceptable.
[20:07] Bolts
    It was tough to carry you here.
[20:10] Brian
    We couldn't have managed it
    if you weren't still recovering.
[20:13] Zeno
    Don't tell me... For something so silly...
[20:16] Brian
    Silly? Oh, come on.
[20:22] Brian
    It's important to celebrate

    Things like this aren't so bad
    every now and then, right?
[20:40] Zeno

[02:36] Cyrus
    The kidnapping happened
    the day before yesterday.
[02:39] Cyrus
    This arrived the day after
    the child went missing.
[02:44] Brian
    "If you want your child back, vote against
    the bill that prosecutes Borderlanders."
[02:49] Brian
    What's this bill?
[02:51] Cyrus
    It's called the New Residential
    Area Designation Bill.
[02:53] Cyrus
    The pretext is it gives new
    addresses to Borderlanders,
[02:57] Cyrus
    but in reality, it's a secret
    Borderlander isolation policy.
[03:04] Cyrus
    With a demand like this,
    the kidnapper must be a Borderlander.
[03:09] Brian
    So that's why they called us.
[03:12] Brian
    Do you think it's related
    to Rubber's terrorist group?
[03:15] Cyrus
    It's highly likely that the
    remnants of it are involved.
[03:20] Emi
    Our maid went to wake up my son, Kei, and...

    the surveillance cameras in the area.

    We've asked around with our neighbors,
    but there were no witnesses.
[03:37] Lyra
    The vote for the bill mentioned in the
    blackmail letter is happening tomorrow.
[03:42] Agata
    Yes, it's supposed to be
    signed at the committee.
[03:47] Lyra
    Are you going to vote for it?
[03:51] Agata
    Well...
[04:12] Brian
    Looks like he was taken through that window.
[04:14] Brian
    No one witnessed anyone suspicious, though.
[04:18] Brian
    So what bothers you?
[04:21] Brian
    A child's drawing?
[04:23] Brian
    What about it?
[04:26] Brian
    Do you know something?
[04:31] Zeno
    Don't get yourselves involved.
[04:33] Brian
    Huh?
[04:34] Zeno
    I'll take care of this case on my own.
[04:37] Brian
    Wait... Hey!
[04:40] Brian
    What? He hasn't come back?
[04:43] Theodore
    Not since he left with you.
[04:46] Theodore
    And I just noticed that he even
    took out the Marginal Launcher.
[04:50] Robin
    Well, damn. There's nothing scarier
    than a veteran going rogue.
[04:54] Brian
    What is this symbol?
[04:57] Theodore
    It's personal information...
[04:59] Brian
    Now's not the time for that!
[05:08] Theodore
    Ten years ago, there was
    a serial kidnapping case
[05:12] Theodore
    in which only five-year-olds were targeted.
[05:16] Theodore
    There were never any witnesses.
[05:19] Theodore
    At each crime scene was the
    strange symbol you see there.
[05:28] Brian
    Don't tell me Zeno's son was...
[05:30] Theodore
    Yes.
[05:35] Theodore
    At the time, Zeno pressed on
    with an aggressive investigation,
[05:38] Theodore
    and cornered a man who seemed
    to be the culprit. But...
[05:44] (Flashback) Zeno
    Say it! Where are the children?!
[05:47] (Flashback) Man
    I'm only following my orders!
[05:49] (Flashback) Zeno
    That's bullshit!
[05:51] (Flashback) Zeno
    Tell me.
[05:53] (Flashback) Man
    The k-kids are...
[05:58] (Flashback) Zeno
    Wait!
[06:00] (Flashback) Zeno
    Stop!
[06:05] Theodore
    In the end, they couldn't
    find any of the children,
[06:09] Theodore
    and Zeno's son remains missing.
[06:12] Theodore
    Zeno resigned from his detective
    position to take responsibility.
[06:16] Theodore
    The statute of limitations hasn't expired
    yet, but the case remains unsolved.
[06:21] Theodore
    The children are feared dead.
[06:27] Lyra
    I didn't know he had such a history.
[06:30] Bolts
    It makes sense that he's so unfriendly.
[06:33] Cyrus
    Considering the situation,
    it's highly likely that
[06:36] Cyrus
    the same group of criminals is
    involved in this case, as well.
[06:40] Robin
    No wonder Zeno got so heated.
[06:48] Resident
    It's you again.
[06:50] Cyrus
    "Again"?
[06:51] Brian
    Must be Zeno.
[06:52] Brian
    Looks like he's investigating on his own.
[06:55] Resident
    Like I said before, I never saw
    the child or heard his voice.
[06:59] Resident
    But there has been a strange
    rumor around here lately.
[07:03] Brian
    A rumor?
[07:05] Resident
    A flying person.
[07:07] Lyra
    That's a flying humanoid.
[07:10] Brian
    What is that?
[07:12] Lyra/I
    It's a type of UMA that's been
    witnessed all over the world.
[07:15] Lyra/I
    A human-shaped unidentified flying
    creature that makes no sound.
[07:20] Brian
    When you say "UMA"...
[07:22] Cyrus
    Must be a Borderlander.
[07:24] Cyrus
    Maybe they came to case the joint.
[07:27] Brian
    And that's who abducted the
    kid from the second floor.
[07:30] Lyra/I
    Flying humanoids originated in Mexico.
[07:33] Lyra/I
    It may be connected to
    the hallucinogenic mushroom
[07:35] Lyra/I
    that the Borderlander terrorist
    group made drugs from,
[07:37] Lyra/I
    and the ancient Aztec civilization.
[07:40] Cyrus
    Would it be related to that symbol?
[07:42] Brian
    Lyra, can you look into that line of inquiry?
[07:45] Brian
    We'll continue to—

    Come to the Twin Tower!

[08:01] Brian
    Have they discussed the kidnapping?
[08:03] Bolts
    Doesn't seem that way.
[08:05] Robin
    He must be trying to keep it under wraps.
[08:11] Agata
    Can't we postpone our final decision?
[08:15] Executive A
    The date for breaking ground
    on construction can't be moved.
[08:19] Executive B
    We also don't want the immigrant
    protest to get too big.
[08:32] Brian
    Hey, wait!
[08:33] Brian
    You're not really gonna sign it, are you?!
[08:36] Agata
    I can't yield to terrorists.
[08:38] Brian
    You can't be serious!
[08:40] Brian
    Your child's life is on the line!
[08:42] Executive A
    Who are you, exactly?
[08:43] Executive B
    They say they're from a task force.
[08:45] Executive C
    Who cares?! Get rid of them!
[08:54] Robin
    Brian, stop it!
[08:55] Brian
    Shut up!
[08:57] Brian
    If the culprit finds out,
    who knows what they'll—
[09:03] Brian
    They were monitoring us!
[09:18] Robin
    Are you serious?!
[09:19] Bolts
    It won't kill Borderlanders
    if it hits them, but...
[09:25] Robin
    Normal humans will be in pieces.
[09:27] Brian
    Marginal explosion...
[09:40] Bolts
    Anyone hurt?
[09:40] Executive A
    My ears...
[09:41] Executive B
    What the...
[09:41] Agata
    I-I'm okay.
[09:42] Executive C
    Another terrorist attack?
[09:44] Robin
    Hey, where's Brian?
[09:53] Brian
    Not again!
[09:55] Zeno
    So it is you.
[10:05] Passersby
    What's going on?
[10:06] Passersby
    A movie, apparently.
[10:06] Passersby
    They said it's a film shoot.
[10:07] Passersby
    What the heck?
[10:08] Passersby
    That explosion, too?
[10:10] Theodore
    We're sorry for the inconvenience.
[10:12] Theodore
    They're up-and-coming action stars.
[10:15] Robin
    The title is Double Machos
    Versus the Flying Phantom
.
[10:19] Bolts
    Please come watch the film.
[10:24] Isabella
    I won't incriminate myself.
[10:27] Zeno
    Then I'll shoot you in the head
     until you feel like talking.
[10:31] Brian
    Hey! We don't know if she did it!
[10:35] Zeno
    Why do you side with this woman so much?
[10:38] Zeno
    You sympathize with her
    after the bombing incident?
[10:43] Zeno
    A child's life is on the line, so shut
     your mouth if you want to live.
[10:47] Brian
    Stop this nonsense!
[10:49] Brian
    If you're too aggressive,
    it'll be just like ten years ago—
[10:53] Zeno
    The culprit might die?
[10:55] Brian
    I mean...
[10:56] Zeno
    I don't know what you heard
    from Theodore, but...
[11:04] Zeno
    This woman is a Borderlander.
[11:06] Zeno
    No matter how much you hurt her,
     she won't easily die!
[11:08] Brian
    That doesn't mean you
    can do whatever you want.
[11:21] Brian
    Any development?
[11:22] Lyra
    No luck.
[11:23] Lyra
    I can't find the symbol anywhere.
[11:26] Robin
    Nothing here, either.
[11:28] Robin
    He's asked the same questions 300 times.
[11:31] Zeno
    Where is the Agatas' child?
[11:35] Zeno
    What does this symbol mean?
[11:40] Zeno
    Are you acting alone, or are you
    getting orders from someone?
[11:44] Zeno
    Is this another of Rubber's plans?
[11:46] Zeno
    In your harpy form,
    you monitored the Agatas' house
[11:50] Zeno
    and abducted their child from
    the second floor. Didn't you?
[11:57] Zeno
    Answer me!
[11:58] Zeno
    Where is the child?!
[12:00] Robin
    Zeno, stop!
[12:01] Zeno
    Where is the child?!
[12:03] Zeno
    Answer me!
[12:04] Zeno
    Give the child back!
[12:05] Zeno
    Give him back!
[12:13] Zeno
    Damn, is this Pau d'Arco tea?
[12:22] Brian
    I think it tastes good.
[12:26] Bolts
    It's already been three days
    since the abduction.
[12:29] Robin
    I get where Zeno is coming from.
[12:31] Robin
    Even if he has to beat her to a pulp, he'll...
[12:34] Brian
    Stop it. Borderlanders have rights, too.
[12:38] Robin
    Speak for yourself.
[12:40] Robin
    You used to manhandle Peck, too.
[12:43] Brian
    Wh-When did I do such a thing?
[12:45] Robin
    Don't you remember?
[12:46] Robin
    You used him as a bulletproof vest,
[12:49] Robin
    and fed him to a shark.
[12:51] Brian
    That was, you know...
[12:54] Robin
    Even if you don't mean to, a part of you
    thinks, "He's a Borderlander, after all."
[12:59] Robin
    Nothing's worse than being unconscious of it.
[13:06] Bolts
    One more hour until we switch
    with Cyrus and the others.
[13:09] Bolts
    Tomorrow, we'll visit the scene again—
[13:12] Bolts
    What is it?
[13:13] Bolts
    Is this training?
[13:14] Bolts
    With a weak-ass tackle like that...
[13:16] Brian
    H-Hey...
[13:19] Brian
    Is this...
[13:20] Bolts
    Not you, too. What are you doing?
[13:23] Robin
    He put something in it, didn't he?
[13:27] Bolts
    It's the drug.
[13:30] Bolts
    The one circulating among Borderlanders...
[13:33] Brian
    Don't tell me Zeno did this...
[13:37] Bolts
    I-I should have had a protein shake instead...
[13:49] Brian
    Wait...
[13:53] Brian
    The way you're going about this...
    isn't going to change anything.
[13:58] Brian
    There must be another way...
[14:03] Brian
    I'll help you.
[14:05] Brian
    If you keep this up, you'll stay
    trapped in the past forever.
[14:12] Zeno
    Still, I have to do it.
[14:18] Zeno
    That's all I can do.
[14:30] Isabella
    Where are you taking me?
[14:34] Lyra
    Hey, wake up.
[14:37] Lyra
    Wake up!
[14:39] Bolts
    Where's Zeno?
[14:40] Cyrus
    When we got here, he was already...
[14:43] Robin
    Damn it.
[14:48] Lyra
    Brian? Where are you going?
[14:50] Brian
    I'm gonna find the kid.
[14:52] Brian
    Otherwise, Zeno won't stop.
[15:08] (Flashback) Zeno
    Sorry, I don't have time for hugs today.
[15:12] (Flashback) Zeno
    Tell the shrimp sorry for me.
[15:14] (Flashback) Lily
    It's Noah, not "the shrimp."
[15:16] (Flashback) Lily
    Use his actual name.
[15:18] (Flashback) Zeno
    After the night shift,
    I'll get the usual sandwich.
[15:21] (Flashback) Zeno
    The one the shrimp likes.
[15:23] (Flashback) Lily
    It's Noah, not "the shrimp."
[15:25] (Flashback) Zeno
    I know.
[15:33] (Flashback) Lily
    I-It was only for a second...
[15:37] (Flashback) Lily
    I went to the bathroom, and he was gone.
[15:46] Zeno
    That was the only day I didn't
    give him a hug before I left.
[15:51] Zeno
    That was the only day
    I didn't call him by his name.
[15:56] Zeno
    I had assumed that they
    would always be with me.
[16:01] News Caster/I
    Further news on the serial kidnappings.
[16:04] News Caster/I
    It was reported that a man considered
    to be a key witness in the case
[16:07] News Caster/I
    died due to an accident
    while on the run.
[16:11] News Caster/I
    The whereabouts of the kidnapped
    children are still unclear.
[16:14] News Caster/I
    The police will hold a press conference soon.
[16:18] (Flashback) Lily
    Why?
[16:18] News Caster/I
    Information about the cases should be
    reported to the investigation headquarters
[16:20] (Flashback) Lily
    Why can't you find Noah?
[16:22] News Caster/I
    at the number you see on the screen.
[16:25] News Caster/I
    The local government has asked
    the police to increase patrols,
[16:27] (Flashback) Zeno
    I'm sorry.
[16:28] News Caster/I
    while urging the public that children be
    accompanied by adults when they are outside.
[16:31] (Flashback) Lily
    Aren't you supposed to be
    the legendary detective?
[16:34] News Caster/I
    For our next story...
[16:36] (Flashback) Lily
    Find our Noah!
[16:45] (Flashback) Zeno
    Lily?!
[16:48] (Flashback) Zeno
    Lily! Lily!
[16:52] Zeno
    When my wife died, I gave up on my child.
[16:56] Zeno
    Something inside me just snapped.
[17:00] Zeno
    You don't know what's truly
    important until you lose it.
[17:04] Zeno
    So no one can hold on to
    what's really important.
[17:13] Zeno
    This will be your last chance.
[17:16] Zeno
    Where is the child?
[17:20] Isabella
    You're wrong.
[17:22] Isabella
    You haven't lost them.
[17:25] Zeno
    What do you mean?
[17:28] Brian
    Stop!
[17:30] Zeno
    What are you doing here?
[17:31] Brian
    Theodore told me that you
    might be at this house.
[17:38] Brian
    We found the child.
[17:41] Brian
    The culprit wasn't Isabella.
[17:44] Brian
    It was the maid who worked there.
[17:46] (Flashback) Brian
    Anything is fine!
[17:48] (Flashback) Brian
    Please remember!
[17:50] (Flashback) Emi
    But I don't remember anything.
[17:52] (Flashback) Agata
    We've told you everything we could.
[17:54] (Flashback) Brian
    I need to find that child, no matter what!
[17:58] (Flashback) Brian
    For that young life, and for you, his parents!
[18:01] (Flashback) Brian
    And there's someone I need to stop.
[18:05] (Flashback) Brian
    I can't make him go through this again!
[18:12] (Flashback) Maid
    Th-That night, I put the boy
    to sleep like I always do.
[18:17] (Flashback) Maid
    B-But...
[18:19] (Flashback) Maid
    It was just another regular night, but
    the child... the child wasn't there, so...
[18:28] Lyra
    I found it.
SIGN    Nichiyomi
     Serial Child Kidnapping
[18:30] Lyra
    The name of the maid is Shiho Sato.
[18:32] Lyra
    Like Zeno, her child was
    kidnapped ten years ago.
[18:36] Zeno
    Like me?
[18:40] Brian
    Yes.
[18:41] Brian
    She's the mother of one of the five kids
    who have been missing for ten years.
[18:46] Brian
    The child was hidden in the attic.
[18:49] Brian
    We thought he was kidnapped,
    but he was at the house all this time.
[18:55] (Flashback) Kei
    Huh? Where's Shiho?
[19:00] Brian
    That maid was also obsessed
    with the case from ten years ago.
[19:04] Maid
    It was Kei's fifth birthday.
[19:08] Maid
    But his parents said they
    were too busy with work.
[19:14] Maid
    I wanted those parents
    to know... the pain I feel.
[19:20] Maid
    What it feels to lose something precious.
[19:24] Robin
    That's why you left the same
    symbol from ten years ago.
[19:28] Zeno
    Then you...
[19:30] Isabella
    I sent the blackmail letter.
[19:33] Isabella
    I was monitoring that family.
[19:36] Isabella
    To stop a man named Agata
    from passing the new bill.
[19:41] Isabella
    That's how I learned the maid did it.
[19:44] Isabella
    I took advantage of that.
[19:47] Isabella
    I told her to cooperate in exchange
    for my silence about the kidnapping.
[19:51] Isabella
    So I'm guilty, as well.
[19:58] Brian
    I know this didn't resolve anything for you.
[20:00] Brian
    But this time, you did rescue one person.
[20:04] Brian
    It's about time you took a step forward.
[20:11] Zeno
    Maybe you're right.
[20:12] Brian
    Good!
[20:13] Brian
    Well, then...
[20:17] Brian
    Here's payback for when you
    hit me at the interrogation!
[20:31] [SONG] Sign
    CLOSED
[20:33] Bolts
    The child was found safe and sound.
[20:34] Robin
    And the new bill did pass.
[20:34] [SONG] Sign
    New Bill Passed
[20:38] Cyrus
    I feel conflicted.
SIGN    No to the New Bill!
    Protect Borderlander Rights!
[20:41] Peck
    I'm gonna protest the hell out of it!
[20:44] Lyra
    So the case from ten years ago
    still remains a mystery?
[20:48] Brian
    Yeah, I guess.
[20:57] Zeno
    You mentioned before...
[20:59] (Flashback) Isabella
    You haven't lost them.
[21:03] Zeno
    You know the truth about what
    happened ten years ago, don't you?
[21:10] Zeno
    I figured out the meaning of this symbol.
[21:17] Zeno
    Let's continue the interrogation.

[00:01] Zeno/I
    Ever since that day, I've lived my
    days counting things that I've lost.
[00:10] Zeno/I
    You can't take back what you've lost.
[00:14] Zeno/I
    I know that.

SIGN    When You Wish Upon a Star, a Star Shall Have the Guitar and Perfume
[02:00] Brian
    Why can't we investigate?!
[02:02] Brian
    He took the weapon and the classified data!
[02:06] Theodore
    Zeno is not a Borderlander.
[02:08] Theodore
    He is outside of our jurisdiction.
[02:11] Brian
    But he took Isabella, who is a Borderlander!
[02:16] Brian
    So shouldn't we move
    immediately to recover her?!
[02:20] Theodore
    It'll take a while for her "change
    of address" to be considered illegal.
[02:26] Brian
    Huh?!
[02:27] Brian
    "Change of address"?!
[02:29] Theodore
    Data management is
    the job of the higher-ups.
[02:32] Theodore
    What we can do is...
[02:34] Brian
    Let me interrogate Rubber.
[02:36] Brian
    Then we might be able to find a clue!
[02:39] Theodore
    We don't know where he's imprisoned.
[02:42] Theodore
    This case is tied directly
    to an UN executive.
[02:45] Theodore
    If we investigate without authorization...
[02:47] Bolts
    I guess job hunting is in order.
[02:48] Lyra
    Quitting the job to get married
    isn't a thing anymore.
[02:51] Cyrus
    That's the fate of government employees.
[02:54] Robin
    But it's hard to imagine Zeno
    doing something so stupid.
[02:57] Robin
    If we give him time,
    he might come back on his own.
[02:59] Brian
    This isn't a middle schooler
    running away from home!
[03:01] Brian
    While we dawdle, he might...
[03:03] Lyra
    Might what?
[03:05] Brian
    He might die.
[03:11] Lyra
    Don't be so dramatic.
[03:13] Robin
    He's the type who won't die even if it kills him.
[03:15] Bolts
    His muscles are adequate for survival.
[03:18] Cyrus
    His mentality seems strong, as well.
[03:20] Brian
    He hasn't been able to move on
    since what happened ten years ago.
[03:25] Brian
    He doesn't care about his life.
[03:27] Brian
    That's what his eyes looked like.
[03:31] Lyra
    And you think Borderlanders are involved
    in the case from ten years ago?
[03:36] Cyrus
    That's what Zeno seems to believe,
    judging from how he took Isabella with him.
[03:40] Robin
    I guess we'll have to start from there.
[03:43] Bolts
    I'll ask around at my gym.
[03:47] Theodore
    Very well.
[03:48] Theodore
    I'll try my best to look the other way.
[03:57] Isabella
    I understand your situation now.
[03:59] Isabella
    And where are we headed?
[04:02] Zeno
    First, I need to look into the
    circumstances from back then.
[04:06] Isabella
    How did you get the information
    about this symbol?
[04:09] Zeno
    If Borderlanders can do it, so can humans.
[04:14] Zeno
    You withheld information about Rubber's
    case and the case from ten years ago.
[04:19] Zeno
    You betrayed Brian's trust.
[04:23] Isabella
    Brian?
[04:25] Isabella
    Oh, that guy.
[04:27] Isabella
    You're in the same boat when
    it comes to betraying trust.
[04:30] Zeno
    I don't like him.
[04:32] Isabella
    Because he has a way of
    letting himself into your heart?
[04:36] Zeno
    From now on, you tell me
    everything you know.
[04:39] Zeno
    Even if Borderlanders are hard
    to kill, you can be killed.
[04:43] Isabella
    You think threats work on me?
[04:46] Zeno
    It's a deal.
[04:48] Zeno
    And not a bad one for you Borderlanders.

    I'm gonna lose another buddy at this rate.
[05:56] Brian
    I'm too ashamed to face you, Danny.
[06:00] Peck
    Yup, with a face like that, you'd look
    better if you wore Theodore's mask.
[06:04] Brian
    Yo, that's going too—
[06:07] Brian
    Peck? How did you find me here?
[06:09] Peck
    I just followed the scent of misery.
[06:12] Brian
    Well, excuse me.
[06:14] Peck
    With your small brain,
    it's pointless to think.
[06:18] Peck
    You need some help from someone smarter.
[06:21] Brian
    And you think that's you?
[06:23] Brian
    Sorry, but I haven't fallen low
    enough to ask for a rat's help.
[06:27] Peck
    I'm not a rat!
[06:29] Peck
    Can a rat do this?
[06:31] Brian
    What's that?
[06:32] Peck
    It's a backup of that guy.
    My Lyra was secretly holding on to it.
[06:36] Brian
    "That guy"?
[06:38] Brian
    You don't mean...

    What do you want?
[06:51] Eddie/I
    Don't wake me up.

[06:59] Eddie/I
    I'm retired, okay?
[07:02] Eddie/I
    I'm done with data and the internet.
[07:04] Eddie/I

[07:12] (Flashback) Lyra
    Days gone by will not come back!
[07:16] Eddie/I
    I don't want to know anything.
[07:18] Eddie/I
    The world is full of stuff

[07:21] Peck
    You were useless as a cyber terrorist.
[07:25] Peck
    I guess you're useless as a helper, too.
[07:29] Brian
    That's too bad.
[07:31] Brian
    Lyra's still in love with you, too...
[07:34] Eddie/I
    What?!
[07:35] Brian
    Why would she keep a backup
    of your data otherwise, right?
[07:39] Eddie/I
    I g-guess you're right...
[07:42] Peck
    I bet she kept him because
    he'd come in handy—
[07:46] Brian
    Lyra must be waiting for your "log" to be "in."
[07:50] Brian
    To get you going on that,
    why don't you help us out?
[07:55] Eddie/I
    I-If you insist.
[07:57] Eddie/I
    Just this one time.
[08:00] Eddie/I
    Unfortunately, there's been no information
    on Zeno Stokes since three days ago.
[08:05] Eddie/I
    He's probably being careful
    not to leave any digital log.
[08:09] Peck
    What?!
[08:10] Peck
    For all the airs you put on, you're useless!
[08:12] Peck
    You softy log bastard!
[08:14] Brian
    Then can you tell me
    where Rubber is imprisoned?
[08:24] Cyrus/I
    Hey, look at this.
[08:26] Lyra
    Is that the Borderlander drug?
[08:29] Cyrus/I
    It's the investigation report on Confu.
[08:32] Cyrus/I
    But the numbers are different
    from the data managed by the UN.
[08:36] Cyrus
    In the UN's document, it's classified in
    Schedule I, the most dangerous category.
[08:42] Cyrus
    But according to Zeno's report,
    it's Schedule IV at best.
[08:46] Lyra
    What does that mean?
[08:49] Cyrus
    The hazard level of the drug
    has been overestimated.
[08:53] Cyrus
    Of course, if it's ingested in a
    large amount, it will affect you.
[08:57] Cyrus
    But Brian and the others didn't
    suffer much damage back then.
[09:02] Lyra/I
    Meaning the UN is trying
    to set Borderlanders up
[09:05] Lyra/I
    as heinous villains instead
    of regular bad guys?
[09:09] Cyrus
    I don't know. But...
[09:12] Lyra
    It's worth looking into.
[09:23] Brian
    I'm Theodore Tompson
    from the Marginal Service.
[09:27] Brian
    I'm interrogating Rubber on the order
    of the higher-ups from the UN.
[09:31] Masked Soldier A
    Is he...
[09:32] Masked Soldier B
    ...an idiot?
[09:37] Peck
    The mask looks good on you,
    just as I expected.
[09:40] Brian
    Oh, shut up.
[09:41] Brian
    Let's go.
[09:47] Eddie/I
    There's a hidden door in the study.
[09:56] Theodore
    Welcom—
[10:04] Robin
    Who the hell are they?
[10:05] Theodore
    They're apparently from the UN.
[10:08] Theodore
    Don't seem to be here for
    our new product, though.
[10:12] Agata
    There was unauthorized access to the data
    regarding where Rubber is imprisoned.
[10:17] Agata
    It was accessed through Eddie Snow, the AI
    involved in the Marginal Service's case.
[10:22] Robin
    Eddie?
[10:24] Lyra
    You've got to be kidding!
[10:30] Lyra
    Must've been Peck...
[10:31] Agata
    You were ordered not to get
    involved in Rubber Suit's case.
[10:36] Agata
    Considering the situation,
    it must be Brian Nightraider's doing.
[10:41] Agata
    All of you will have to face
    the appropriate consequences.
[10:45] Bolts
    Which means...
[10:47] Robin
    No bonus?
[10:49] Robin
    We don't get those to begin with.
[10:51] Agata
    I'm ordering you to either
    arrest or kill Brian Nightraider.
[10:55] Robin
    Huh?
[10:56] Bolts
    Kill our own? Not in your wildest dreams!
[11:05] Agata
    You have no right to refuse.
[11:07] Lyra
    Why us?
[11:09] Cyrus
    Aren't we supposed to be the
    anti-terrorist team for Borderlanders?
[11:13] Agata
    This is a special circumstance.
[11:15] Agata
    We're showing leniency by
    letting you take care of him.
[11:19] Agata
    We owe him as much.
[11:22] Lyra
    Owe him?
[11:26] Cyrus
    Isn't he...
[11:30] Agata
    Once again, I'm Ryo Agata,
    the UN undersecretary.
[11:40] Brian
    Was that all of them?
[11:42] Peck
    Looks like it.
[11:43] Peck
    Luckily, there weren't too many
    guards since this is a hideout.
[11:50] Brian
    Time for an emotional reunion.
[12:03] Rubber
    Well, if it isn't Brian.
[12:05] Peck
    Wow. As expected from a star.
[12:08] Brian
    He may be a star, but he needs the suit.
[12:11] Brian
    Both his scent and the visual
     are problematic otherwise.
[12:18] Rubber
    Sorry to bother you,
    but may I borrow a guitar?
[12:21] Rubber
    Mine was confiscated.
[12:23] Brian
    Give it up. We don't have time.
[12:25] Rubber
    That's too bad.
[12:26] Brian
    I thought I'd sing you
    a love song as we went.
[12:30] Brian
    I'm not expecting a show.
[12:32] Brian
    What I want to know is...
[12:34] Rubber
    About your buddy?
[12:35] Brian
    As expected of a Borderlander.
[12:38] Rubber
    I have good intuition.
[12:40] Rubber
    For example, we'll be surrounded soon.
[12:42] Brian
    Huh?!
[12:43] Brian
    Hey! You guys....
[12:56] Bolts
    Brian, are you serious?
[12:58] Robin
    He's a Borderlander.
[13:00] Robin
    Above all, he's the leader of a terrorist group.
[13:04] Peck
    I-I just want you to know
    that it's not my fault!
[13:07] Peck
    I only egged him on—
[13:08] Lyra
    You shut up.
[13:10] Peck
    O-Okay.
[13:11] Robin
    Shibujuku's terrorist bombing,
    a gunfight at Jukai,
[13:15] Robin
    and the shark attack in the southern island...
[13:18] Robin
    You know all of them were his doing, right?
[13:20] Brian
    I know... but he's my only hope right now!
[13:25] Cyrus
    We don't know for sure
    that he knows where Zeno is.
[13:28] Brian
    I hear you.
[13:29] Brian
    But he must know where Isabella is,
    and she's supposed to be with Zeno.
[13:33] Rubber
    You may be right.
[13:34] Lyra
    We obviously can't trust him.
[13:37] Brian
    Maybe not, but we have to!
[13:39] Brian
    Borderlander or not.
[13:42] Robin
    I knew he was an idiot,
    but not this much of one.
[13:45] Bolts
    Brian, why would you go that far?
[13:48] Bolts
    You're throwing everything
    away because of Zeno.
[13:51] Brian
    From the moment I met him,
    he was really nasty,
[13:56] Brian
    and there were countless
    times I wanted to kill him.
[14:00] Brian
    Honestly, if he's dead somewhere
    in a ditch, I couldn't care less.
[14:05] Brian
    But...
[14:09] Brian
    He's still my buddy.
[14:12] Brian
    I want to see him smile, just once.
[14:16] Brian
    I'm...
[14:18] Brian
    I'm the only one who can stop him.
[14:26] Robin
    I guess there's no talking him out of it.
[14:28] Robin
    We don't want to do this either,
[14:30] Robin
    but we're also the only
    ones who can stop Brian!
[14:38] Rubber
    What a wonderful beat.
[14:40] Brian
    Don't they know how to hold back a little?
[14:42] Peck
    Ouch...
[14:43] Peck
    They got my tail.
[14:46] Bolts
    First, aim for Rubber!
[14:48] Cyrus
    Don't do it.
[14:49] Cyrus
    If his suit rips, the gas he emits
     will cause a disaster.
[14:52] Brian
    Damn it!
[14:53] Brian
    They have so much more firepower than we do!
[14:55] Rubber
    You want me to save your skin?
[14:57] Brian
    No, thanks!
[14:59] Brian
    I don't want to be traumatized to death.
[15:01] Cyrus
    You can aim at his legs.
[15:04] Robin
    Brian will be okay even if
    it hits him in the stomach.
[15:06] Brian
    Cut the crap!
[15:08] Brian
    Don't be ridiculous!
[15:11] Theodore
    Is it the decision of the
    United Nation as a whole?
[15:14] Agata
    I was given carte blanche on this case.
[15:22] Brian
    Hey! Can't you do something?!
[15:25] Rubber
    Oh, I think there might be a car
    that delivered vegetables in the back.
[15:29] Brian
    Why didn't you tell me sooner?!
[15:34] Peck
    Get in!
[15:35] Brian
    This is so lame.
[15:37] Brian
    You gotta drive an Aston
    Martin at a time like this!
[15:40] Rubber
    I'm afraid I'm not a famous spy.
[15:43] Robin
    It's bulletproof?!
[15:44] Robin
    Why does this truck have VIP specs?!
[15:48] Robin
    Damn it!
[15:49] Bolts
    Robin!
[15:52] Robin
    Marginal explosion!
[16:04] Robin
    Did I get them?
[16:09] Robin
    Oh, damn it!
[16:14] Agata
    You failed the mission.
[16:16] Agata
    We will take over the pursuit of
    Brian Nightraider and Rubber Suit.
[16:21] Agata
    Please wait for further notice until we
    decide what to do with the Marginal Service.
[16:25] Robin
    Was this really the right thing to do?
[16:27] Bolts
    We covertly let them escape, but...
[16:30] Lyra
    We're in complete rebellion against the UN.
[16:32] Cyrus
    Is that a problem?
[16:34] Cyrus
    Working for scum isn't good
     for one's mental health.
[16:40] (Flashback) Robin
    Does that mean Borderlanders
    weren't at fault?
[16:43] (Flashback) Lyra
    I wouldn't go that far.
[16:45] (Flashback) Lyra
    It's still a fact that Rubber's people distributed
    drugs and performed terrorist acts.
[16:50] (Flashback) Lyra
    But the damage they caused has
    been exaggerated on the record.
[16:54] (Flashback) Cyrus
    For example, it says the bombing at
    the Immigration office killed 13 people,
[16:59] (Flashback) Cyrus
    but no one was actually hurt.
[17:01] (Flashback) Lyra
    The victims reported on
    the record do not exist.
[17:05] (Flashback) Lyra
    Their names and addresses are all bogus.
[17:07] (Flashback) Robin
    Why would they do that?
[17:09] (Flashback) Bolts
    To tighten the control on Borderlanders?
[17:13] (Flashback) Cyrus
    Most likely.
[17:14] (Flashback) Cyrus
    There's a possibility
[17:16] (Flashback) Cyrus
    that the UN set them as rank villains
     in order to get rid of them.
[17:20] (Flashback) Cyrus
    Their existence is inconvenient for them.
[17:24] (Flashback) Lyra
    Perhaps the very presence of the
    Marginal Service symbolizes that.
[17:32] Theodore
    You two are correct.
[17:34] Theodore
    Scum must pay for what they've done.
[17:41] Rubber
    Okay, I perfectly understand the situation.
[17:44] Rubber
    My heart aches for the passion
    you have for your buddy.
[17:48] Brian
    Cut it out.
[17:50] Brian
    There's only one thing I want to ask.
[17:52] Brian
    It's about the case from ten years ago.
[17:54] Brian
    You and Isabella know something about it.
[17:58] Brian
    Correct.
[18:02] Rubber
    The key to everything lies in the sky.
[18:07] Rubber
    It's Gray Shock.
[18:15] Brian
    Isn't that...
[18:16] Rubber
    You must know what it is.
[18:18] Rubber
    The UFO crash that happened ten years ago.
[18:22] Rubber
    Back then, the UN drove off the evil
    aliens with the help of Borderlanders.
[18:27] Rubber
    At that time, they secretly
    collected the UFO they came in.
[18:32] Brian
    Wha... The UN did?!
[18:34] Peck
    Are you kidding me?
[18:36] Rubber
    The UFO contained technology
    that far surpassed yours.
[18:40] Rubber
    The UN was trying to find military uses for it.
[18:44] Rubber
    They called the attempt
     "alien reverse engineering."
[18:47] Brian
    And what does that have to do with
    the kidnapping of Zeno's son ten years ago?
[18:54] Rubber
    Although the UN collected the UFO,
    they couldn't get it to activate.
[19:00] Rubber
    It's a vehicle for aliens,
    so I guess that's no surprise.
[19:03] Rubber
    So they looked for humans
    who could operate it.
[19:06] Brian
    You don't mean...
[19:08] Rubber
    The children who were
    kidnapped ten years ago.
[19:12] Rubber
    The UN hypothesized that the UFO
    required something akin to psychic power.
[19:18] Rubber
    Just like Project MK-Ultra
    or the Stargate Project.
[19:22] Rubber
    Those who exhibited such powers
[19:25] Rubber
    were the five-year-old children
    who witnessed the crashing UFO.
[19:30] Rubber
    They were called the "Alien Gifted."
[19:32] Rubber
    They responded to the UFO,
    and could activate it.
[19:37] Rubber
    That's why they were kidnapped.
[19:39] Brian
    So the symbol Zeno was so hung up on...
[19:43] Rubber
    Right. That isn't a symbol of anything.
[19:47] Rubber
    It's the UFO itself.
[19:50] Rubber
    The kidnappers didn't leave it on the scene.
[19:53] Rubber
    The children drew it themselves.
[19:55] Brian
    Zeno realized that on his own?
[20:00] Rubber
    We Borderlanders learned
    the truth only this past year.
[20:04] Rubber
    We couldn't sit idly by knowing the lives of
    precious little ones were being taken away.
[20:09] Brian
    Wait, so the reason why you
    Borderlanders start terrorist attacks...
[20:13] Rubber
    Our existence is not
    acknowledged in this society.
[20:17] Rubber
    So we can't officially raise our voices.
[20:20] Rubber
    That's why we shook up the UN
    to get them to investigate.
[20:24] Brian
    What?! Give me a break!
[20:26] Brian
    That doesn't make it okay
    to do something like that!
[20:28] Rubber
    Of course, we will pay for our crimes.
[20:31] Rubber
    But I have something I need to do before that.
[20:35] Rubber
    Just like your buddy does.
[20:40] Brian
    Where did Zeno go?
[20:42] Rubber
    I've investigated this with Isabella,
[20:45] Rubber
    but I don't know where
    the UFO research facility is.
[20:49] Rubber
    But with the help of your excellent buddy,
     maybe they've already arrived there.
[20:56] Rubber
    At Mt. Minakami.
[21:02] Rubber
    The children who were taken,
    the Alien Gifted,
[21:06] Rubber
    are still locked up in this
    mountain as research subjects.
[21:10] Rubber
    Mt. Minakami is also known
    as a "Japanese pyramid."
[21:14] Rubber
    It's a power spot
[21:15] Rubber
    so strong that the Imperial Army tried to
    create a massive underground base here.
[21:19] Rubber
    The UN is taking advantage of that.
[21:23] Brian
    That's way too occult for me.
[21:24] Brian
    What?! What's going on?!
[21:26] Rubber
    This is a low-gravity zone.
[21:28] Rubber
    It means we're getting
    closer to the central area.
[21:34] Rubber
    I myself have never been this far before.
[21:38] Rubber
    Now, let us go together.
[22:03] Brian
    Are you kidding me?
[22:11] Rubber
    What a view.
[22:14] Rubber
    But I don't find it beautiful.
[22:29] Brian
    Anyway, let's rescue the kids—
[22:38] Brian
    Zeno.

SIGN    Shitty World Will in Fact Come to an End
[00:07] Brian
    Zeno!
[00:09] Zeno
    You're here.
[00:10] Brian
    I heard the truth from Rubber.
[00:11] Brian
    We have to rescue the kids at once!
[00:14] Brian
    We'll take back what was lost.
[00:18] Zeno
    I'll settle this on my own.
[00:22] Brian
    Yeah, I knew you'd say that!
[00:26] Brian
    Enough already!
[00:29] Brian
    Stop trying to take it all upon yourself!
[00:34] Rubber
    What a tear-jerking reunion.
[00:36] Rubber
    But now is not the time to fight.
[00:39] Rubber
    If the UFO is activated,
    something terrible will—
[00:44] Brian
    Rubber?!
[00:45] Agata
    Please do not move.
[00:52] Agata
    I would not want to soil
    my hands unnecessarily.
[00:56] Brian
    You're from the kidnapping case...
[00:58] Agata
    Brian, I'm truly grateful to you.
[01:02] Agata
    You even helped Rubber escape from jail.
[01:06] Brian
    Was it on purpose?
[01:08] Agata
    Leading a terrorist group, causing a
    prison riot, and now escaping from jail.
[01:13] Agata
    With this many crimes, he will not
    escape capital punishment.
[01:17] Brian
    Ha! Speak for yourself.
[01:19] Brian
    Your crime of exploiting children to
    research some shitty UFO is much worse!
[01:25] Agata
    Our research is vital to
    the protection of Earth.
[01:29] Brian
    Bullshit!
[01:30] Brian
    You just want to use it to fight wars!
[01:32] Agata
    You don't know how terrifying the aliens are!
[01:35] Brian
    What?
[01:37] Zeno
    He survived the Gray Shock.
[01:39] Brian
    He survived...
[01:42] Brian
    You mean he's that agent?!
[01:44] Zeno
    His testimony as a survivor and contact
    with the Borderlanders was so valued
[01:49] Zeno
    that he was put in charge
    of his own organization.
[01:51] Agata
    The UN's special organization in
    charge of managing Borderlanders
[01:57] Agata
    and protection from space, known as MSS.
[01:59] Agata
    We are directly above you
    in the structural hierarchy.
[02:04] Agata
    After my child was put in danger,
    I expedited the experiments.
[02:08] Agata
    Ten years of research are
    finally about to bear fruit.
[02:12] Agata
    Your interruption is
    meaningless at this point.
[02:17] Agata
    However, you cannot go freely.
[02:21] Agata
    We can't have this case exposed, you see.
[02:27] Brian
    Go.
[02:29] Brian
    What are you doing?
[02:30] Brian
    You're gonna go see your kid, aren't you?!
[02:32] Zeno
    You...
[02:33] Brian
    Time stopped for you ten years ago,
    and now it's about to move again!
[02:37] Brian
    You can't afford to just
    stand here and wait around!
[02:40] Brian
    Go! Go now!
[02:43] Robin
    Idiot!
[02:46] Robin
    He can't go because he's worried about you!
[02:52] Robin
    In Zeno's eyes, you'll always be a newbie.
[02:57] Brian
    You guys...
[02:59] Bolts
    Sorry for the wait.
[03:00] Cyrus
    Wow, it's the real UFO.
[03:02] Lyra
    The UN's pretty rich,
    using a facility like this in secret.
[03:07] Agata
    This is a Level E classified facility.
[03:10] Agata
    Why do we have so many uninvited guests?
[03:13] Theodore
    Our supervisor alerted us
    to the team's emergency.
[03:17] Peck
    I'm pretty sure I broke the record
    for full marathon by a huge margin.
[03:21] Peck
    But if I could climb up my Lyra's
    bosom instead of a podium...
[03:24] Agata
    Theodore Tompson.
[03:26] Agata
    I assumed you understood
    your position, but...
[03:31] Theodore
    Stalled on my career track, I've been
    polishing occult knick-knacks all these years.
[03:35] Theodore
    I'm not in this for justice or a
    desire to climb up the ladder.
[03:39] Theodore
    As middle management
    in a marginal organization,
[03:41] Theodore
    I was going to live an
    uneventful life until I retired...
[03:47] Theodore
    But I have my pride.
[03:49] Lyra
    He must truly resent...
[03:52] Cyrus
    ...his occult knick-knacks being destroyed.
[03:54] Brian
    Go, Zeno.
[04:10] Zeno
    Thank you.
[04:14] Peck
    Go get 'em, y'all!
[04:40] Zeno
    Are you okay?!
[04:43] Researcher
    I've finished extracting the energy.
[04:45] Researcher
    It's now ready to be transfer—
[05:11] Zeno
    Shrimp!
[05:19] Noah
    Who are you?
[05:21] Zeno
    I'm...
[05:24] Zeno
    I'm...
[05:25] Noah
    Dad?
[05:34] Zeno
    I'm sorry.
[05:36] Zeno
    Forgive me.
[05:37] Zeno
    It's... It's my fault!
[05:41] Noah
    Is this for real?
[05:42] Noah
    It really is you, Dad!
[05:44] Zeno
    I... I bought the sandwich
    you liked on my way home...
[05:48] Zeno
    But you were gone.
[05:54] Zeno
    I swore that I'd find you...
[05:59] Zeno
    I'm sorry... I'm sorry, shrimp...
[06:02] Noah
    Dad, my name is Noah, not "shrimp."
[06:05] Zeno
    Yes, I know... I know.
[06:09] Noah
    Where's Mom?
[06:11] Noah
    Is Mom here?
[06:17] Noah
    I see.

[06:22] Zeno
    What's happening?
[06:24] Noah
    Ten long years...
[06:26] Device
    Begin energy transfer...
[06:28] Noah
    But finally, it's over.
[06:34] Theodore
    Fire, fire, fire!
[06:37] Robin
    Since he's always at the base...
[06:39] Bolts
    He must have had some pent-up stress.
[06:43] Agata
    How's the charging going?
[06:46] Masked Soldier
    Very well, sir.
[06:49] Agata
    It's finally time.
[06:57] Rubber
    This is bad.
[06:59] Brian
    Come out!
[07:00] Brian
    I'm not interested in
    vacuum-packing a pop star.
[07:07] Rubber
    My, my. You've saved me twice now.
[07:10] Rubber
    You truly are my prince.
[07:13] Brian
    Wha... What are you...
[07:17] Rubber
    The party is over!
[07:23] Agata
    Why get in our way at this point?
[07:26] Agata
    You Borderlanders must know
    the fear of extraterrestrial beings,
[07:30] Agata
    since you fight them yourselves.
[07:31] Rubber
    That's exactly why.
[07:34] Rubber
    Do you really think that aliens,
[07:35] Rubber
    who have far more advanced intelligence
    than the beings of Earth,
[07:38] Rubber
    would try to invade with
    only a single flying disc?
[07:41] Rubber
    Suppose this UFO was just a recon aircraft,
    which came to Earth to scout.
[07:48] Rubber
    Then its purpose is to figure out
    the coordinates of the potential colony
[07:51] Rubber
    and send that information to the main unit.
[07:53] Rubber
    In other words, if you activate it,
[07:56] Rubber
    it will resend Earth's coordinates
    to their mother ship.
[08:02] Rubber
    No matter how big the universe is,
    they'll be able to show up instantly.
[08:06] Rubber
    When that happens...
[08:07] Rubber
    It's Gray Shock all over again.
[08:15] Agata
    Open the hatch!
[08:26] Brian
    What is going on here?!
[08:33] Robin
    Are you serious?
[08:35] Lyra
    It's huge.
[08:37] Cyrus
    I'm afraid we're not hallucinating.
[08:39] Bolts
    It's a fair match for my pecs.
[08:42] Theodore
    I can't ask for anything more
    as an occult fan...
[08:44] Agata
    I don't believe this.
[08:52] Brian
    Is that...
[08:53] Rubber
    Yes.
[08:58] Rubber
    That's their mother ship.
[09:03] Masked Soldier
    We have to request anti-aircraft troops!
[09:05] Agata
    But...
[09:06] Brian
    Enough already!
[09:07] Brian
    This is no time for us to be fighting!
[09:09] Agata
    H-However...
[09:11] Brian
    The whole Earth is in danger!
[09:13] Brian
    What's the point of us
    quarreling over petty stuff?!
[09:15] Theodore
    But those guys decimated
    my precious collection—
[09:18] Brian
    Who cares?!
[09:19] Brian
    At this rate, what's left of it
    is going to be burned to ashes!
[09:23] Brian
    So is the old-fashioned UFO you
    so desperately tried to activate!
[09:28] Brian
    Humans, Borderlanders... it doesn't matter!
[09:31] Brian
    All of us on Earth need to work together!
[09:41] Rubber
    Brian Nightraider.
[09:43] Rubber
    You may very well be a true Borderlander,
    one who bridges the gap
[09:48] Rubber
    between humans and Borderlanders.
[09:51] Rubber
    Oops.
[10:14] Agata
    I-It's all over...
[10:18] Rubber
    We Borderlanders have been preparing
    ourselves for a day like this...
[10:24] Rubber
    since ancient times.

    It's an energy drink for Borderlanders.
[11:38] Sakaki
    I've got plenty of guns and bullets!
[11:41] Robin
    Didn't we see those guns at
    the fort we were captured in?
[11:45] Bolts
    Is this why they were dealing in arms?
[12:02] Theodore
    Now I see how it is.
[12:06] Theodore
    On the murals of ancient Sumer,
[12:09] Theodore
    there's a depiction of a vehicle like
    a UFO and god-like strange figures.
[12:14] Theodore
    They were Borderlanders
    fighting for Earth, not aliens.
[12:19] Theodore
    It depicted the Borderlanders,
    who have protected us since ancient times.
[12:25] Masked Soldier
    I have detected an energy reading
    on the bottom of the ship.
[12:35] Masked Soldier
    The attack is expected to come
    from south by southwest!

[12:37] Robin

    No problem there.

[13:49] Agata
    Did we avoid the attack?
[13:50] Brian
    Was it the power of Borderlanders?
[13:52] Rubber
    The barrier was a Hail Mary,
    and it only works once.
[13:57] Rubber
    Before the next attack comes, we have to
    do something about the mother ship.
[14:00] Brian
    Do what, though?
[14:03] Bolts
    It's impossible with weapons like these.
[14:04] Robin
    Military dispatch won't make it.
[14:07] Brian
    No, there's a way.
[14:09] Brian
    I saw it in a movie before.
[14:18] Peck
    Are you seriously gonna fire up this thing?!
[14:20] Brian
    Come on, just look for a launch button!
[14:22] Peck
    There is no launch button.
[14:24] Brian
    Huh?
[14:25] Theodore
    No, no! Stop!
[14:27] Theodore
    You need to handle it with care!

    Old man, don't tell me...

    I'm an occult enthusiast, you know.

    Stop popping off!

[14:55] Cyrus

    Okay, Doctor.
[15:04] Brian
    Here we go!
[15:05] Peck
    V8! V8!
[15:06] Theodore
    It's the psychic communication type,
     as I thought.
[15:08] Theodore
    By synchronizing the waves
    of the operator and the UFO...
[15:12] Theodore
    Huh?!
[15:13] Brian
    Forget it! Just let me handle this!
[15:27] Brian
    Damn it!
[15:30] Brian
    What the heck?! Move!
[15:37] Robin
    Go, Brian!
[15:38] Robin
    Don't let Borderlanders steal the show!
[15:42] Noah
    Are they seriously using that UFO?
[15:44] Zeno
    Seems like it.
[15:46] Zeno
    He's an idiot beyond hope.
[15:52] Noah
    You sure about this?
[15:56] Noah
    Mom told me... that you
    were a legendary detective.
[16:01] Zeno
    That was a long time ago.
[16:04] Noah
    But you did come to rescue me.
[16:08] Zeno
    I just don't want to lose you ever again.
[16:12] Noah
    You won't.
[16:16] Noah
    You'll always come back to me.
[16:20] Zeno
    Noah...
[16:22] Noah
    So, Dad...
[16:25] Noah
    You should go.
[16:29] Brian
    All right, then. Time to go save Earth.
[16:37] Rubber
    I'm counting on you, Brian.
[16:44] Brian
    Are you kidding me?
[16:47] Brian
    Where are the missiles?!
[16:48] Brian
    Doesn't this thing have missiles?!
[17:09] Brian
    Are you serious?!
[17:10] Brian
    How crazy can you be?!
[17:12] Zeno
    Not more than you!
[17:14] Brian
    Why did you come here?!
[17:16] Brian
    You finally found your kid, didn't you?!
[17:18] Zeno
    It's all to protect my kid!
[17:21] Zeno
    He's finally gotten hold of his future.
[17:24] Zeno
    I won't let aliens take that away from him!
[17:27] Brian
    But you don't have to
    throw yourself into danger!
[17:30] Zeno
    You're still a newbie.
[17:32] Zeno
    I can't leave it to you.
[17:33] Brian
    Stop pulling seniority on me
    just because you started first!
[17:38] Zeno
    Do you think you're the oil driller
    who'll blow himself up with the asteroid?
[17:42] Zeno
    Or the alcoholic old man
    who crashes into the spaceship?
[17:46] Brian
    Shut up!
[17:47] Brian
    I love old movies from back then!
[17:55] Brian
    Oh, crap! The escape pod...
[17:58] Zeno
    Let me teach you one thing.
[18:01] Zeno
    This world is shit, and what's
    lost will never come back.
[18:09] Zeno
    My dead wife won't come back,
[18:11] Zeno
    and ten happy years
    with my son are still gone.
[18:15] Zeno
    Your dead buddy won't
    crawl out of his grave.
[18:20] Zeno
    You always end up losing something,
    so frankly, there's no point in living.
[18:25] Zeno
    No matter how you look at it,
    it's better to die quickly.
[18:31] Zeno
    I'm sure you'd be happy if you
    could die protecting Earth.
[18:35] Zeno
    But...
[18:39] Zeno
    I won't let you die alone.
[18:42] Zeno
    Because we're buddies.
[18:47] Brian
    Now you say that?
[18:49] Zeno
    There's no such thing as too late.
[18:53] Brian
    Well, maybe you're right.
[18:59] Zeno
    Let's go!

    Yeah!

    To think that there are others who
    can protect this planet besides us.

    Zeno... Brian...
[19:57] Robin
    We'll never forget you.
[19:59] Theodore
    If only we had their bodies,
    I could have mummified them...

[20:13] Cyrus

    Did you really think those two would die?

    A new uniform with a built-in parachute.
[20:27] Zeno
    I asked Lyra to develop it.
[20:30] Brian
    Gimme a break!
[20:31] Brian
    If we could escape, you could have—
[20:39] Brian
    Hey! At least give me a hand here!
[20:44] Zeno
    Not my problem.
[20:54] Brian/I
    "This world is shit."
