What the heck are you doin'?

-I mean, isn't that guy your dad?
-[moody music playing]

[Capri] Hmm?

No camera today, Roman?

-[camera whirring]
-Talia?

[Capri] And spare me that bullshit.

This isn't my dad.

-[Kiril] Of course I am. How could you--
-[Capri] Shut up!

[D] Aah. Now I remember.

That was her, right? Your girlfriend?

She's not my girlfriend.

-[D] Tell me how she wound up with Capri?
-[static buzzes]

-[Roman] Thought you chipped her.
-[Kyoko] I did.

-[D] Like hell I did.
-[Kyoko] It was me!

[Roman] Then how the heck
does she have Capri?

-[Kyoko] I said I did it!
-[Omi] Ugh, my stereo's glitchin'.

-[D] Yeah. Wait.
-[Kyoko] Just shut the f*ck up!

-I chipped 'er with Capri!
-[feedback buzzing]

[Kyoko] Glad you're not dead, by the way.

Kang Tao f*cked up in our favor.

Uh… Kyoko?

Roman. I figured you'd be there.

[Roman] Why'd you do it? Uh… Hey!

[D] You're that short broad from before?

What're you after?

[Kyoko] That entirely depends.
It's still installed?

-[D] I don't follow.
-[Kyoko] You will if you answer me.

[D] Yeah. Some of her.

-[Roman] Hmm.
-[D] But only a little.

[Kyoko] I'm curious. What do you intend
to use Capricorn for?

-[D] Use her?
-[Roman] Hmm.

[Kyoko] Yes. Once you get the shard.

-[D] Nah. It ain't like that.
-[Roman] Huh?

-[D] I just wanna see her again.
-[Kyoko] Huh?

-[wistful electronic music playing]
-That's all I care about.

[scoffs]

[Kyoko laughing]

Guess I had you pegged all wrong!

Well, now I wish I had gotten to know you.

Fine. I suppose I'll help you.

We're all gonna choke
on Death's d*ck anyway.

Don't recall askin' for help,

but, as much as I hate to admit it,
I can't do this alone.

[Kyoko] Hah! And here,
I thought you had no sense.

-[Omi laughing]
-[D] What's got you gigglin'?

[Omi] I don't know, it's hard to explain!

I guess it's you
takin' something serious for once.

-[laughing]
-[D] Huh? What's that supposed to mean?

-Knock it off.
-[Omi chuckles] Sorry!

[laughing] Sorry, seriously!

So, D.

Nope.

Huh?

Said he couldn't sit around and wait!

[Kyoko seethes] Gah! Roman, listen!

You need to bring D back
before I get to you!

You understand?

[Roman] Wh… Hold on a sec!

I'm headin' your way,
and I'm packin' a CPRN-XW-1.

-[Roman] What's that?
-Just think of it as an EMP on steroids.

It's big, and it'll put every electronic
device within a mile out of commission.

It should be strong enough to reach Capri.

But listen carefully.

When this thing goes off,
you can't be anywhere near her.

Get through to D however you can,

then haul a*s outta there
before I arrive, got it?

-Uh…
-[call ends]

-[sighs]
-[heavy g*nf*re]

Huh?

[D grunts]

Snap out of it, Capri.

You're still in there, right?

Stay outta this!

What the hell's goin' on over there?

Just how long are you going
to keep this up? This is costing us.

I think Capricorn's disrupting the signal.

-[Roman gasps]
-[g*nf*re]

[Kiril] Why, Talia?

Why?

You were such a good girl.

Destined to become something wonderful.

To be my saving grace.

Talia!

That's my girl.

-My strong girl.
-[Capri yells] Shut up!

Huh?

It's no good. I can't get through!

Can't we get any closer?

It's all for you.

-Hey, Capri.
-[Talia gasps]

I came back to get you. Cool?

[gasps] D!

[D] Capri. You there?

Hey! Boot up already!

[Capri shrieks]

[whimpers]

Huh?

Welcome back, you dumbass.

Let her anger get the better of ya.

[Capri] Oh.

Hey, Blue. It's been a while.

[D] Yeah, it has.

[Capri] Uh…

[gasps]

What's up?

Oh. Is it your turn again?

[D] But this time…

This time's gonna be different.

Let's have some fun. Me and you.

Capri.

[gasps]

-Uh… D!
-[D] Hmm?

Roman.

-You take her.
-Huh? Talia!

[gasps]

You okay there, sunshine?

[Roman, straining] Y-yeah. I got her.

-[grunts]
-[music fades]

[D chuckles]

[Omi] Uh…

[D] Ow! Hey! [winces]

The hell is this?

[Capri] You broke, so I made some repairs.

Cost me an arm and a leg, you know.

Stupid lookin'.

My finest work.

[D] I feel like you didn't try very hard.

Wait a sec. Is this her arm?

[Roman gasps]

[gentle, melancholy music playing]

Huh?

[D chuckles]

-[Kyoko] You need to keep moving.
-[D] Hmm?

-Go. More will come any minute.
-[clanking]

[D] Still hangin' on, huh?

The next wave won't be
Kang Tao rent-a-cops.

Arasaka and Militech will be in it now,
joining the hunt for you.

[D] Cool.

Wanna watch?

[laughs weakly]

Uh…

[Capri] She dead?

[D] Can't tell.

[Roman panting]

D, wait!

Do you have Capri?

[D] Yeah.

[Roman] Uh… Hmm.

So this is it.

The cl*max of your story.

Isn't it?

I'm comin' with you.

I can't miss this!

-It's your--
-[D] Forget it, Roman…

[Roman] If I don't film it, who will?

[D] Let me handle that.

Watched you enough times.
I know the drill.

See? Like this, right?

You can't.

[wind gusting]

[Roman] Huh.

[winces]

You're planning to die, aren't you?

That's it, isn't it?

[D] You and that camera
are gonna get other chances.

[Roman, shakily] It's not fair.

[D] This is the high point of my story.

Not yours.

[Roman] It's not fair!

[D] You still have a lot ahead of you.

[sobs] It's not fair!

-I'm going to--
-[D] Roman.

[Roman gasps shakily]

[music fades]

[D] I'm sorry.

[energy zapping]

[thud]

[D] Take good care of the kid.

Her, too.

[joyful music playing]

[Omi] You headed out?

Yeah.

-Hey, David.
-[D] Hmm?

You're such an idiot.

You know that?

[laughs]

-I've been thinkin'.
-[Capri] Hmm?

[Roman] A while back, there was a guy
with the same name as me.

[Capri] Uh-huh?

[D] Had people close to him.

And he chose to die for 'em in the end.

Or… at least, that's how it looked to me.

Not sure I could do that.

What do you think
was goin' through his mind?

[Capri] Beats me. Why?

[D] Hmm?

[Capri] Any reason you bring that up now?

Dunno.

Talkin' to Omi made me think of him.

[Capri] Here they come.

[Roman] D was an idiot.

As of now, the cause of
the widespread blackout remains unknown.

Eyewitness accounts describe
seeing a strange mass of machinery

moments prior to the expl*si*n.

But all footage of the incident
has seemingly been corrupted.

[Roman] What do you think happened to him?

[Omi] He went out with a bang.

Not a doubt in my mind.

That's just the kind of guy he was.

What? You're filming this?

Yeah.

The fact we got Talia outta there…
It was a miracle.

Avida was watchin' over us.

[King chuckles]

Just an old choom of mine.

her recovery was only temporary.

[King] There's nothin' you can do?

[doctor] We can begin
by removing her implants.

[Talia] Well, that's what Weak says.

Never actually been there myself.

-What?
-[Roman] Mmph…

[Talia] Why the long face? Gonna miss me?

[Roman] Yeah. You too.

I'll come visit.

-Even film you again.

that camera rollin', huh?

[Talia] And you can come

Scroll something so great,
it'll make all this crap feel small.

Do you really think I can?

[Talia] I know you can.

You managed to make me look perfect.

Piece of cake.

[Roman sobs and laughs]

Because you were.

You were perfect. Always have been.

[Talia] Whoa, what a line.
