[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?

[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.

[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?

[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.

[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. [14:11] Man 1     Here. [14:13] Brian     I'll go check it out. [14:15] Brian     H-Hey! What do you think you're doing?!

[14:50] Zeno     Don't make me repeat myself.     They're Borderlanders. [14:54] Zeno     Use the correct— [14:55] Brian     Hold on! [14:57] Brian     Why is he here? [14:58] Zeno     I'll catch the target even if it's your dealer. [15:02] Zeno     Buy from somebody else. [15:03] Brian     That's not it! [15:04] Brian     He's my former douche boss.

[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?
