01x04 - ACT-IV "Crime Factor"

[bunniefuu]

It's human to risk your life for a
person you won't make a deal with?

Well, there're all sorts of humans.

Was it because, if l died, you
wouldn't get the Bio-Ball remover?

Say that again,
and I'll throw you back in there!

What? Did l say something wrong?

What was it...?

- WHA--?! Who're THESE guys now?!
- The Red Commandos!

Red Commandos?!

Found 'em!

What?! The Sewage Treatment Plant?

The Sewage Plant?! You're sure?
All right guys, let's move!

What are Red Commandos?

Red Commandos are Red Commandos!

That tells me a lot!

What's to know? They're the guys
who're sh**ting at us!

All clear now?!

All clear! All clear!

What the...?

I thought l told you to
stay out of this!

Thanks to you, l lost two of my men!

That girl sided with the enemy,
and caused this whole mess!

On top of that, your high and mighty
Tank Police didn't even catch them!

Our girl didn't side with anyone.
She's a hostage!

YOU'RE a bunch of civilians who're
obstructing a police investigation.

Besides that, you attacked without
any regard for the hostage's safety.

I oughtta run you in for obstructing
the duties of a public official!

The painting ''Innocent'' has a
tremendous monetary value.

We don't need a bunch of no-talent
tax thieves getting in the way!

WHAT?!

No-talent tax thieves, huh?

Well now... l always thought you
prided yourselves on excellence.

Yet three of your guys couldn't
handle ONE ''no-talent'' girl!

Excellence my a*s!

How much are you
getting paid for this?

I bet it won't be enough
to cover your losses, eh?

I gave my men an order to recover
that painting, whatever the cost.

They were merely
carrying out that order.

Be thankful l didn't order them to
destroy your precious Tank Police!

Really... The glorious Tank Police
will take you on any time you want!

Sadly, l make it a policy never to
fight genuine fools like you!

I CAN'T STAND IT! l've never been
so humiliated in my life!

Why didn't l say something back?!
Britain, you fool! You stupid fool!

The fool who realizes he's a fool
can no longer be called a fool.

Take it easy, Squad Leader.

The pride of the glorious Tank
Police...MY pride as its leader!

To be humiliated by that...that...!

I'll just have to k*ll myself; then
I'll come back and haunt that SOB!

Stop acting like a fool!

Can't help it!
I'm a genuine fool, remember?

Squad Leader! Stop thinking about
yourself all the time!

We have to
concentrate on finding Leona!

Yeah! You're right!

Tank Police, full speed ahead!

I wonder if Buaku's okay?

lf he dies, it's back to dancing
on the stage for us...

I like dancing, but not having to
do it nude for so little money.

I sort of like not having
any clothes on when we do it.

A nude picture of a man gets 900
million dollars, while all we get...

...are lousy daily wages.
There's something wrong with that!

What can be keeping him?

Anna, why don't l take a look?

- Yeah, just take somebody with you.
- Okay!

Where are we supposed to
meet your g*ng?

Still haven't made the deal...
Decided yet?

I can't bargain with a criminal.

Hopeless... So damned stubborn...

Look at me. I'm not human.
My head, my body...LOOK human.

But I'm not human at all.
I may be a criminal...

But I'm not a criminal ''person''.

Not much difference...
Why don't you give yourself up?

Strange... You fear death?

Trying to scare me?!

I fear death...

The warrior who fears death...
God, give me a break.

There're humans who'd help me,
but who won't make a deal with me...

Some who just judge me outright...
Both ways are ''human'' nature.

This, that, the other thing...
Humans decide everything there is...

''Humans'' this and ''Humans'' that!
What's your problem, anyway?!

Body fluid low... Dizzy...
Feels just like that day...

Like watching an endless movie...
Having to relive it over and over...

Yeah... Felt just like this...

Don't go to sleep. Where is it?!
Where's the meeting place?!

Place...? Don't know. lt was


What are you talking about?! Stay awake!

Once upon a time, there was a man...

He was a bamboo cutter, and
one day he traveled to a mountain...

Stop it! Stay awake!!

Asleep at daybreak on
a spring morning...

Sunrise in spring...sky brightens...
Clouds, so white...

Oh please...
Please don't fall asleep...

Once upon a time...
There was...a...man...

Maraya, destroy everything!
Delete it all.

Hurry! They'll be here any second!

Yes, Professor! But some of
this data may never be duplicated...

lt doesn't matter! Dump everything!

Just seal the prime data from
Phase 7 for long term storage!

Get away from that terminal!
Nobody move!

- W-wait! Who ordered this?!
- Professor...

You look happy.

This'll make you even happier!

Why...? Why? Why?

WHY? WHY?!

Wha...?

lt's the data on us...
Research on our artificial brains...

Master data...deleted.
Painting is...last surviving copy...

But how...

...do l know about it?
lt's our lives, after all.

''Our lives...?''

We were guinea pigs... Humanoid,
but with artificial brains.

But... Why wasn't that study ever
published? And the results hidden?

Because humans are selfish.

You people tried to discover
the nature of your being...

But you couldn't face
what you learned in the process.

And so you tried to destroy the
evidence... Typically selfish...

I see...
So, you knew about the data...

I said this wasn't for money...
But it isn't for the data, either.

Then what? Why do you want it?

I don't know...

YOU DON'T KNOW?!
Don't jerk me around like that!

My life's on the line because
of this thing! Damn it, tell me why!

Please don't be angry...

l've seen the picture they have of
me on my wanted poster...

I hate it. l hate it because it
doesn't show the REAL me.

But when l look at this painting,
I feel peaceful inside.

lt's hard to explain,
but it feels like... like home.

''Home...?''


lt's worth so much more than that!

This is the closest thing we had
to a birth certificate.

As the last surviving guinea pig,
it's only fair that its owner be me.

Your birth certificate...

Incredible...
The Red Commandos again.

Like giving gold to a cat,
or pearls to swine!

You don't appreciate
the true value of that painting!

I'm not a cat and I'm not a pig!
I'm a MAN with an artificial brain!

That painting belongs with
its rightful owner.

And the rightful owner is BUAKU!

sh*t...

Unipuma!

Don't sweat it, Buaku.
l've got everything under control!

NOT QUITE!!!
Release the hostage first!

The heroes ALWAYS appear last!

Leona! Are you all right?

Al! Squad Leader!
BONAPARTE!!!

Your troubles are over!
Come down here, Leona!

Uh...Sir...
lt's not quite that simple...

I won't let you fools
interfere with our work!

The fool who realizes he's a fool
can no longer be called a fool!

YOU'RE THE FOOL!

Sorry to interrupt you two fools!
Don't forget... We're here too!

Damn, the first ones who move'll
get clobbered by the next ones...

...and then that group will be
destroyed by the next...

...so the last one who moves, wins.
No one'll make the first move...

They're taking ''Innocent''!
Red 4! Red 5! After them!

LEONA!

Leona... Squad Leader, they're
after Leona. What should l do?

Act like you're in the Tank Police!

Roger!

Why you...!

sh*t...

NOW!

WHA--?!

Leona...

I can't take any more....
Head's spinning...l can't...

Just hang on a little longer.
The place is just up ahead. Please!

No! Wake up! Eyes on the road!

lt's all over...

No it isn't, we're here.
This is the meeting place.

You mean we...?

Yeah, yeah. We did it.
You did just fine.

So... This is the meeting place...

Leona! Leona, it's you!

Ch-Chief! What are you doing here?!

What's that supposed to mean?
You've arrested Buaku!

I always knew you'd be the one
who'd bring him in!

Arrested him?!

I'll finally be able to get
a good night's sleep now!

I thought it looked familiar...
We're in front of Tank Police HQ!

Are you all right?!

You hit your head in that accident?
Get up to the doc's office, now!

When things go wrong,
this is the safest place to meet.

When the Tank Police are on patrol,
it's the safest spot in the city!

Buaku, how do you feel?

Dizzy. Better patch me up, fast!

No prob, boss. Painting all right?

'Course it is! See?

Great! Well, no need to hang around
here anymore. Let's beat it.

- l almost forgot.
- What?

Give the girl the remover
for the Bio-Ball.

What?! Buaku, did you crack
your head or something?

That's not just any girl.
She's with the Tank Police!

I know. Now give it to her!

I never made that deal with you!

You hopeless, stubborn girl...

There's the remover!
I think l feel better already!

What're you standing around for?
Let's go!

I knew l'd get ''Innocent'' back
from you. Farewell!

Buaku, he got the painting!

Yeah, he sure did...

Now what?

I don't think it really matters now.
Let him have it.

You don't care?

Do what you want.
I'm hurt too much to care.

I understand now...
You can't bring back the past...

Whatever belongs to the Tank Police
belongs to me too!

Wait! That isn't authorized yet!

Big deal! Who cares?

Here we go!

More complaints to process...

What's so valuable
about this thing, anyway?

Nothing makes sense
when politics are involved.

Code, Red 1: Mission accomplished!

There we go...

Launcher set-up...

She did it...

Was it all just a dream?

A dream... A dream...

Dream?!

Greenpeace...

lt wasn't a dream! What are you
standing around for? Come on!

What's got into you?

Never mind, just follow me.
lt wasn't a dream!

ls this our next job?

Ew, it stinks in here.

This isn't any
place to bring nice girls.

Buaku, what are we doing here?
We have to take care of your wounds!

I was right...

I was right, it wasn't a dream.
Up there, that must be where l was.

- Buaku!
- You sure you're thinking straight?

What's happening?!

Greenpeace...

What is it?!

Buaku! He looks like a mirror
image of that painting!

My... My true form...

What...?

Faster, you dogs!

Leona!

Al!

Leona, are you all right?
I was so worried!

Bonaparte!
Oh precious, l missed you!

I was so worried!
Are you alright? Did they hurt you?

How do like that? God damn it!

I'm gonna tear that
stupid little tank apart!!

An innocent mind betrayed is
open to the whispers of the Devil...

And is led into violence and crime.

Oh, Bonaparte... My little angel...

Damn it Al, what'd you do to it?!
lt's DENTED!!! I'll k*ll you!

I'm sorry, Leona! I'M SORRY!

You jerk! You call yourself a
member of the glorious Tank Police?!
