[00:08] Investigator A
    Now, between your
    illegally modified Deco,
[00:11] Investigator A
    and the way you fabricated
     a prime access code,
[00:14] Investigator A
    there's no way you're an amateur.
[00:16] Investigator A
    You do this a lot, don't you?
[00:21] Investigator B
    How long are you going to stay quiet?
[00:23] Investigator B
    We've put together a list of denied
    incidents the Customer Center has handled.
[00:31] Investigator A
    A Love transfer scam, hm?
    That was definitely you.
[00:36] Investigator A
    A Yurei who can't talk? How convenient.
[00:39] Investigator B
    How about this, then?
[00:41] Investigator B
    Look at this. This so-called "Zero
    Phenomenon" the public is panicking over...
[00:46] Investigator B
    This was taken in an area where Love values
     were reset to zero. And that's you, isn't it?
[00:50] Investigator A
    I'm thinking you caused the Zero
    Phenomenon and made off with the Love.

[02:30] Berry
    Is Hack the name of that weirdo?
[02:36] Berry
    E-Excuse me...
[02:42] Berry
    W-Wow, you've got pretty fingers.
[02:47] Finn
    That explains it.
[02:49] Finn
    I see.
[02:53] Berry
    Hey, it's the robot that
     was with the weirdo!
[02:57] Finn
    I understand, Pup.
[02:59] Finn
    So Hack was taken by the Customer
    Center, and you got left behind...
[03:03] Berry
    So do you guys know
    where that weirdo Hack is?
[03:12] Berry
    Hey! Wait up!
[03:18] Berry
    So where are you going?
[03:20] Berry
    And hey, about this "Hack"...
[03:23] Berry
    Are you that weirdo's friend?
[03:26] Finn
    It's none of your business.
    Go get your Deco fixed.
[03:29] Berry
    Wait, how do you even know about that?
[03:31] Berry
    And that's none of your business.
[03:34] Berry
    So did something happen to that Hack kid?
[03:37] Berry
    And hey, you mentioned the Customer
    Center before. What's that about?
[03:42] Finn
    Hack was caught.
[03:44] Berry
    Why?
[03:46] Berry
    Wait... Did that happen after
    that weirdo helped me escape?
[03:50] Berry
    It's my fault.
[03:54] Finn
    Hack... helped you?
[03:57] Berry
    Wh-What is it?
[03:59] Finn
    Come with me.
[04:00] Berry
    Who exactly are you?
[04:03] Finn
    A ghost.
[04:20] Berry
    Wow, I'm seeing a lot
    of secret hideouts lately.
[04:28] Finn
    He said "Don't touch."
[04:34] Berry
    So about Hack...
[04:36] Finn
    How did you find that
     location where I met you?
[04:40] Berry
    Huh? Well, I mean...
[04:42] Finn
    And who are you to Hack?
[04:49] Berry
    I guess you could say... we're friends?
[04:52] Berry
    Or maybe not.
[04:58] Finn
    What are you doing?!
[04:59] Berry
    Ah, sorry!
[05:00] Berry
    It's just... Earlier, you said you were a ghost...
[05:05] Finn
    What of it?
[05:06] Berry
    I mean, you can't touch ghosts, right?
[05:14] Berry
    What's he laughing at?
[05:16] Finn
    The "ghosts" on this island aren't
     the restless spirits of the dead.
[05:23] Finn
    They are people whose births aren't
    recognized, let alone their deaths.
[05:29] Berry
    What kinda "ghosts" are those?
[05:33] Finn
    You know how you need a
     Deco to live on this island, yes?
[05:38] Finn
    It makes switching between
    reality and the Hyperverse possible.
[05:43] Finn
    But to get a Deco, you need
    to be a registered citizen.
[05:46] Finn
    And what if, for whatever reason,
[05:49] Finn
    that registration never happened,
     or details of it got lost or erased?
[05:54] Finn
    The result is a not-insignificant
    number of unregistered citizens.
[05:58] Finn
    People outside the system.
[06:01] Finn
    Citizens in the shadows, their
    existence not officially recognized.
[06:04] Finn
    Those are the Yurei.
[06:07] Finn
    And in exchange for not having a place in
    the system, they can go where they please
[06:12] Finn
    without anyone discovering them.
[06:16] Berry
    I never knew there were people like that.
[06:19] Finn
    It isn't simply a case of not
    knowing. You were never told.
[06:22] Finn
    They arrange it so there's no way to find out.
[06:27] Berry
    But I can see you.
[06:29] Finn
    Right. It's not like the unregistered
    use some kind of special magic.
[06:35] Finn
    And we're not invisible.
[06:38] Finn
    This is just what Yurei are.
[06:39] Berry
    Hack, too?
[06:41] Finn
    By hacking people's Decos, Hack's
    able to move around town undetected.
[06:45] Berry
    Hacking?
[06:47] Berry
    I get it. Because my Deco's broken,
    that didn't work and I was able to see Hack.
[06:54] Berry
    Being a Yurei sounds pretty awesome!
[07:02] Berry
    What's he saying?
[07:03] Finn
    He's asking you to return Hack's device.
[07:07] Berry
    Wait, is that...
[07:12] Finn
    He thinks there's no way
    Hack would help you.
[07:16] Finn
    That you were just a convenient
    way to keep the device safe.
[07:20] Berry
    Wh-What's with that?
[07:24] Finn
    I have to agree.
[07:26] Finn
    You finding that location is proof.
[07:33] Berry
    Well, I don't have any device, so whatever.
[07:37] Berry
    I don't know what you just said,
    but you're ticking me off!
[07:49] Guard
    Your trial will be held shortly
     in the Customer Center.
[07:53] Guard
    Since you're a Yurei, I'm sure you know this,
[07:55] Guard
    but given the unrecognized
    status of unregistered citizens,
[07:58] Guard
    the trial will be held in private.
[08:01] Guard
    Even so, the jury will be made up of Center
     employees, and fairness is guaranteed.
[08:10] Guard
    I can't believe a kid's responsible for
     the Zero Phenomenon. What a mess.
[08:14] Guard
    We've got our hands full with the game cover
    story and staff cleaning up all traces of it.
[08:30] Hack
    That was a good nap.
[08:39] Madam
    Hello. How are you?
[08:42] Finn
    Madam 44.
[08:44] Madam
    Finn.
[08:45] Madam
    Out of all the inventors ever, do you know
     which is the greatest creator of all time?
[08:52] Madam
    It's the "accident," my dear.
[08:54] Madam
    Yes, I'm reminded of the time those fine
     ladies wandered into the misty forest...
[09:01] Madam
    Right before I shot that wicked magistrate
     with an arrow from my golden bow.
[09:06] Madam
    Yes, that little "accident" had my
    heart roaring like a lion. Just like now!
[09:13] Madam
    You're in a spot of trouble, aren't you?
[09:16] Finn
    I am. And you could call it an "accident."
[09:19] Finn
    I must admit, gossip queen or not,
    I'm impressed you already know.
[09:24] Madam
    Underestimate my connections at
    your peril. This isn't like you, though.
[09:29] Madam
    Good thing I already have a lead.
[09:31] Finn
    You know where Hack's being held?
[09:34] Madam
    Oh, little Hacky isn't just being held...
[09:37] Madam
    They're setting the poor child up to take the
    fall for this "Zero Phenomenon" nonsense.
[09:43] Finn
    They're blaming the
    Zero Phenomenon on Hack?
[09:45] Madam
    Yes, as if the child were Phantom Zero.
[09:47] Berry
    That's not true!
[09:48] Berry
    That weirdo wasn't to blame!
[09:51] Berry
    I saw it happen. When the
    Zero Phenomenon kicked in,
[09:54] Berry
    it wasn't Hack who caused it!
[10:02] Madam
    You'd need evidence to prove that, my dear.
[10:06] Madam
    And you'd need it right away, because the
    trial is scheduled for tomorrow morning.
[10:17] Berry
    What do I do? This is my fault.
[10:20] Berry
    They're gonna make that weirdo out to be
    Phantom Zero because of me. What can I do?
[10:25] Berry
    Hey, what'll happen to Hack?
[10:27] Finn
    If convicted, Hack will be
    moved to a correctional facility.
[10:32] Finn
    Never to be seen again.
[10:35] Berry
    Not happenin'!
[10:37] Berry
    I mean, I wanna see that weirdo
     again. Plus, the kid's innocent.
[10:41] Berry
    Hack's not Phantom Zero.
[10:42] Finn
    But without any evidence...
[10:45] Berry
    What about data from when we got
     caught in the Zero Phenomenon?
[10:49] Berry
    There might be some on here.
[10:55] Finn
    So you did have something of Hack's.
[10:57] Berry
    Please.
[11:00] Finn
    Analyzing this might help
     us solve the mystery.
[11:04] Berry
    Awesome! You're gonna examine
    it in the Hyperverse, right?
[11:07] Berry
    I wanna come, too!
[11:10] Finn
    Then, I shall have you do it. And...
[11:15] Finn
    I'll make the most picturesque Hyperverse
    space in all of creation for you to explore.
[11:21] Finn
    A what-esque what now?
[11:23] Finn
    I don't follow, but it sounds Love-y!
[11:26] Finn
    Everything we need is on its way.
[11:32] Hank
    Hey, Finn, baby!
[11:36] Hank
    Down it goes.
[11:38] Finn
    Hank, we don't have much time.
     We need to start building.
[11:42] Hank
    The kid ain't around today?
[11:45] Hank
    Looks like somethin' bad's gone down...
[11:47] Hank
    So you're going into the Hyperverse?
     Ya sure that's a good idea?
[11:52] Finn
    No. She's going in.
[11:55] Hank
    This girl here?! For real?
[11:57] Berry
    Yep!
[12:03] Berry
    This is some beefy hardware.
[12:05] Hank
    You know your stuff, sweetheart.
[12:07] Berry
    Don't I, though?
[12:08] Hank
    Okay. All set!
[12:10] Hank
    Yeah!
[12:11] Hank
    I call this the "Spirit of the
    Storm," also known as...
[12:14] Hank
    The SOS!
[12:18] Berry
    Love-y!
[12:19] Finn
    This should do fine.
[12:20] Finn
    Now I just need to decompress
    the data on this device...
[12:26] Hank
    All right, folks, I'll leave you to it.
[12:29] Hank
    Bon voyage.
[12:42] Berry
    Okay!
[12:43] Finn
    Data analysis complete.
[12:47] Finn
    Activating Hyperverse.
[12:50] Berry
    Let's-a go!
[12:58] Berry
    It's so Love-y that you
    can make a world like this.
[13:01] Berry
    Plus, it's totally standalone.
[13:04] Berry
    No connections means it's not
    utilizing any shared data, right?
[13:08] Berry
    That's crazy! It puts the
     "Hyper" in Hyperverse!
[13:11] Finn
    Stop muttering to yourself.
[13:13] Finn
    You can hear me, yes?
[13:15] Finn
    I'm going to set construction prime
    authorization to the highest level.
[13:19] Finn
    Get ready.
[13:24] Berry
    Wow!
[13:25] Berry
    Okay!
[13:27] Berry
    So fast!
[13:32] Berry
    What the...
[13:37] Berry
    I can't stop!
[13:40] Finn
    Simmer down.
[13:43] Berry
    This is nothing!
[13:48] Finn
    Okay, I'm going to display the
    data from Hack's device now.
[13:57] Berry
    Wow. It's usually only the Customer Center
    that can produce something this detailed.
[14:01] Berry
    You're awesome, Finn!
[14:03] Finn
    Skip the flattery.
[14:05] Finn
    Use the Timeline to figure out where
    ground zero for the Phenomenon was.
[14:09] Berry
    Right.
[14:11] Berry
    What the heck is this tech, though?
[14:15] Berry
    This should do it.
[14:19] Berry
    There!
[14:21] Berry
    I think that's the place.
[14:28] Berry
    Okay, now to find it!
[14:42] Finn
    What is it? Is there too
     much data to sort through?
[14:45] Finn
    Your Deco's acting up, too.
[14:47] Berry
    Yeah. I'm still good, though.
[14:49] Finn
    It's the right eye, yes? Be careful.
[14:59] Berry
    This is it.
[15:00] Berry
    See? This proves Hack didn't do it.
[15:03] Finn
    All right, understood.
[15:04] Finn
    Now you just need to reproduce the data from
    when the Zero Phenomenon became active.
[15:08] Berry
    Got it!
[15:12] Berry
    Is this how it happened?
[15:15] Berry
    Well, Hack didn't do it, and it doesn't
    seem like anyone's making it happen...
[15:20] Berry
    Did it just happen naturally?
[15:23] Berry
    Okay. Got the record.
[15:30] Finn
    We can't be sure it was a natural
    occurrence yet. There's not enough data.
[15:35] Berry
    You think? But who could've done it, then?
[15:38] Finn
    There'll be plenty of time
    to find that out later.
[15:55] Finn
    All done.
[15:56] Finn
    Right!
[16:02] Prosecutor
    As I've just laid out,
[16:03] Prosecutor
    the defendant has pilfered Love scores
     on multiple occasions in the past.
[16:08] Prosecutor
    In addition to fabricating scores—
[16:13] Hack
    So sleepy...
[16:15] Judge
    Continue.
[16:16] Prosecution
    As such, the defendant caused the Zero
    Phenomenon in order to steal even more Love.
[16:21] Prosecution
    In short, the defendant is Phantom Zero!
[16:24] Belle
    Objection!
[16:30] Judge
    And you are?
[16:31] Belle
    My apologies, your honor.
[16:33] Belle
    I know I'm late, but I'm here
     to represent the defendant.
[16:38] Belle
    I'm a defense lawyer.
[16:40] Belle
    My name is Belle.
[16:41] Prosecution
    The defendant already declined legal
    representation. Who arranged this?
[16:46] Belle
    Uh, well, it was...
[16:48] Finn
    Say it was a human rights group.
[16:51] Finn
    It was a cumin whites gloop!
[16:53] Finn
    Huh?
[16:54] Judge
    Order!
[16:56] Judge
    Now, who arranged this?
[16:58] Finn
    Human. Rights. Group.
[17:00] Berry
    Oh, crap.
[17:02] Berry
    I-It was a human rights group.
[17:08] Berry
    Now, members of the jury...
[17:16] Berry
    I'd like you to look at this.
[17:18] Berry
    First, I'd like to submit this
    data recreation as evidence.
[17:23] Berry
    You're looking at the location where
     the Zero Phenomenon occurred.
[17:27] Berry
    And this is it in action.
[17:30] Berry
    As you can see, the Zero Phenomenon
    doesn't appear to be triggered by anyone,
[17:34] Berry
    but rather, it is something
    that occurs naturally.
[17:37] Berry
    Now, here is the defendant
    at that same moment in time.
[17:41] Berry
    As you can see, this is a
     completely different location,
[17:45] Berry
    meaning in terms of time and place, there's
    no way my client could've been responsible!
[17:51] Finn
    Hey. Don't forget about the
    issues with your right eye.
[17:54] Belle
    Yes, it's pure coincidence that my client was
     found at the scene of the Zero Phenomenon.
[17:59] Belle
    As you can see, if anything, the defendant
    was a victim of this strange occurrence.
[18:05] Belle
    And this data is irrefutable proof of that!
[18:12] Finn
    Don't get worked up.
    You'll wreck the disguise.
[18:16] Belle
    "Zero is a lie. And everything
    that is not zero is the truth."
[18:20] Belle
    These are the words spoken by the Phantom
     Zero present in the popular video game.
[18:25] Belle
    But a game is just that: a game.
[18:27] Belle
    In short, the incident this case centers
    around has nothing to do with Phantom Zero,
[18:33] Belle
    who is nothing more than
    a character in a video game.
[18:36] Belle
    However, due to the prosecutor's insistence
    on there being a connection to Phantom Zero,
[18:42] Belle
    a completely innocent person
    has been held responsible
[18:45] Belle
    in a total miscarriage of justice!
[18:50] Berry
    Your honor!
[18:51] Judge
    Wh-Who are you?
[18:54] Juror A
    Wait, wasn't she in the video evidence?
[18:56] Juror
    What's going on?
[18:58] Juror
    What's a child doing in here?
[18:58] Juror
    Uh...
[18:59] Finn
    What happened?
[19:01] Hack
    Nerdy-birdy!
[19:03] Berry
    I messed up.
[19:07] Juror A
    What is that?
[19:14] Hack
    Back for more, glitchy-witchy?!
[19:19] Juror B
    Look! The Zero Phenomenon!
[19:21] Juror C
    I-It's Phantom Zero!
[19:22] Juror D
    D-Don't be stupid! This isn't a game!
[19:25] Judge
    O-Order!
[19:28] Guard
    I-It's Phantom Zero!
[19:31] Berry
    See? That's the real Phantom Zero!
[19:33] Finn
    What did you say?
[19:34] Finn
    No, it doesn't matter right now.
    This is your chance. Get Hack out of there.
[19:38] Berry
    Oh, right.
[19:40] Finn
    I'm sending instructions via your
    Deco. Just follow what they say.
[19:45] Berry
    Got it.
[19:47] Hack
    Is Finn pullin' a trick or two?
[19:48] Berry
    Yeah.
[19:49] Hack
    Don't leave me sit-sittin' here all day.
[19:53] Hack
    It's time to bail.
[19:54] Berry
    Leave it to me.
[19:57] Berry
    Upsy-daisy!
[20:03] Berry
    I. Love...
[20:06] Berry
    Ai!
[20:10] Jurors
    Should we evacuate?
[20:14] Berry
    Piece of cake!
[20:15] Finn
    Good. Once you're out of the courtroom,
    head straight down the hallway.
[20:22] Security A
    What's the deal with this robot?
[20:25] Security B
    Hey, the defendant's gone!
[20:27] Security A
    Was it just a distraction?!
[20:28] Security B
    That kid really was Phantom Zero!
[20:30] Finn
    It's right at the next corner.
[20:33] Finn
    After that, go left.
[20:35] Finn
    Get a move on. You've got 20 seconds left.
[20:39] Berry
    Hey, wait!
[20:42] Berry
    This is a dead end!
[20:44] Finn
    Jump down from there.
[20:46] Berry
    N-N-N-N-N-N-No way!
[20:49] Finn
    Three seconds left. Jump.
[20:51] Berry
    There's no way!
[20:51] Finn
    Two. One.
[20:53] Hack
    Zero!
[20:54] Berry
    Please!
[21:01] Berry
    We are long-long gone-gone!
[21:05] Berry
    Giga! Tera! Peta! Exa!
[21:09] Berry
    Zetta! Yotta! Harpo!
[21:10] Berry
    I thought I was a goner...
[21:13] Berry
    What now, Finn?
[21:14] Finn
    Right. You'll be coming
    up on a cargo terminal.
[21:17] Finn
    Sit tight until then.
[21:18] Berry
    W-Wait... Is that...
[21:21] Berry
    Crap, they found us!
[21:23] Squad
    You won't get away, Phantom Zero!
[21:27] Berry
    What do we do, Finn?
[21:35] Berry
    Finn! Finn!
[21:40] Berry
    I don't wanna die!
[21:58] Trooper
    This is the search unit.
    A freight cart on the rail has exploded.
[22:02] Trooper
    The fugitive, Phantom Zero, and the fugitive's
    accomplice were caught in the explosion.
[22:06] Trooper
    I repeat...
