[00:20] Boss
    We're just in this for the money, so as long
    as your ransom gets paid, you can go free.
[00:26] 7oka
    How much do you have on you?
[00:27] 7mori
    I think my Pasmo card has
    about 2,000 yen on it.
[00:29] 7mori
    And I've got my QUO and T Cards, too.
[00:30] 7yama
    Do you think they'll accept
    the beef bowl coupon I have?
[00:33] Boss
    You lot won't be paying. We're gonna
    negotiate with your employer.
[00:38] Boss
    And if they don't offer up a decent
    ransom, you're all fish food.
[00:46] Boss
    You're from a TV station, eh?
[00:48] Boss
    Come to think of it, those folks who were
    filming the giant squid were a big deal.
[00:53] Boss
    Got plenty of ransom money for them.
[00:55] 7oka
    That's because they're actually well-funded!

[00:58] Boss
    Never even heard of TV Nanana.
[01:01] Boss
    Must be some rinky-dink operation.
[01:03] Boss
    Explains why you're out in
    a rusty squid-fishing boat.
[01:07] 7oka
    But did you know that it has three
[01:09] 7oka
    complimentary meals a day
    and open-air bathing?
[01:11] Boss
    You poor saps probably
    aren't worth the trouble.
[01:14] Boss
    Into the sea you go.
[01:16] 7oka
    N-Now, hold on a second!
[01:17] 7oka
    It's true that we aren't a big organization,
[01:20] 7oka
    but we're still a major, Tokyo-based
    network with terrestrial broadcasts!
[01:23] 7oka
    So could you maybe negotiate
    with the home office?
[01:25] Boss
    Don't lie to me, boy!
[01:27] 7mori
    He's telling the truth, though.
[01:30] 7oka
    Y'know that show where they drain the lake?
    Or where they follow people home?
[01:33] 7oka
    Those are ours!
[01:35] Boss
    Never heard of them. What the hell's
    entertaining about draining a lake?
[01:39] Boss
    And if you follow somebody home,
    that just makes you a stalker.
[01:42] Boss
    Let's be rid of you, then. Right now.
[01:44] 7oka
    You gotta spare us. Please.
[01:45] 7mori
    We're begging you.
[01:45] 7oka
    We're seriously a major network!
    We broadcast ping pong and judo matches!
[01:48] 7oka
    Come on!
[01:48] 7mori
    Please.
[01:49] 7yama
    Niinuma, save us.
[01:52] Lackey
    Boss! I did a search, and it looks like
    they really are a major network.
[01:57] Boss
    You gotta be kidding me.
[01:58] Boss
    TV Nanana
[01:58] Boss
    a national TV network

    Giroppon 1-Chome
[01:59] Boss
    "TV Nanana, a national TV network
    located in Giroppon 1-Chome."
[02:03] Boss
    It's true!

    Says you've only got six affiliates,

[02:07] 7oka
    Wait, only six?
[02:09] 7mori
    The smaller number helps
    keep us flexible, though.

[02:11] 7oka
    Looks like you were doing well for a bit,
    but your stock value's pretty low.
[02:15] 7oka
    Must've been a drop in ratings causing
    a lack of growth through ad revenue.
[02:19] 7oka
    Plus, kids these days
    don't bother with TV much,
[02:23] 7oka
    so all the ad money's going to the Internet.
[02:25] 7oka
    It's rough times for the TV biz.
[02:28] 7yama
    You're oddly well-informed.
[02:30] Boss
    Guess I'll fire off a
    message to your president.
[02:33] Boss
    We've got your precious employees.
[02:36] Boss
    Prepare the ransom ASAP!
[02:38] Boss
    From the pirates.
[02:39] Boss
    There.
[02:41] 7mori
    I'm glad we technically
    qualify as a major network.
[02:43] 7oka
    This is all thanks to our regional affiliates.
[02:46] 7oka
    Thank you all for saving our lives!
