WEBVTT

00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:40.470
-Chief?
-The Old Man?

00:01:46.940 --> 00:01:51.650
DISCLOSURE
Quantized Gospel

00:01:59.900 --> 00:02:00.820
Can I help you?

00:02:01.360 --> 00:02:03.110
They're coming with me.

00:02:03.570 --> 00:02:05.240
I cannot allow that.

00:02:05.320 --> 00:02:06.950
Please read this.

00:02:15.370 --> 00:02:16.210
Impossible.

00:02:17.170 --> 00:02:18.580
An executive order?

00:02:19.250 --> 00:02:24.960
They are members of a special forces unit
working under your nation's president.

00:02:25.050 --> 00:02:27.260
Special forces? That's news to me!

00:02:29.050 --> 00:02:34.180
You must have known
if you're in charge here.

00:02:37.690 --> 00:02:39.350
Retrieve the bodies at once.

00:02:39.850 --> 00:02:43.150
As for Mrs. Huge,
prioritize the analysis of her lifelog.

00:02:43.440 --> 00:02:44.280
Yes, sir.

00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:50.530
It's been too long, Major.

00:02:51.990 --> 00:02:54.120
Fancy meeting you here.

00:02:55.200 --> 00:02:57.710
Seems you saved our hides.

00:02:58.210 --> 00:03:02.380
Not to worry. I came with a job offer
that's a perfect fit for you.

00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:04.750
I have a bad feeling about this.

00:03:10.760 --> 00:03:14.100
Sorry to hear we're disbanding.

00:03:16.060 --> 00:03:18.940
But we cracked the case with your help.

00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:20.390
I'm grateful.

00:03:23.650 --> 00:03:24.610
I bet you are.

00:03:26.110 --> 00:03:29.320
Well, good luck back in your homeland...

00:03:30.200 --> 00:03:31.570
Princess Mei Ling.

00:03:34.450 --> 00:03:35.330
Zài jiàn!

00:03:41.620 --> 00:03:44.040
What's this false memory
you put in his head?

00:03:44.540 --> 00:03:47.760
Let's just say it's
a fairly rousing tale of adventure.

00:03:48.420 --> 00:03:49.840
Got a problem with that?

00:03:50.550 --> 00:03:51.590
No problem here.

00:03:53.510 --> 00:03:55.810
But he wasn't half bad.

00:03:56.720 --> 00:03:57.640
I agree.

00:03:58.470 --> 00:04:02.980
So I hid his memory of the mission
in his payment file.

00:04:03.650 --> 00:04:06.360
If he's ever needed,
he's just a password away.

00:04:06.730 --> 00:04:09.360
You're still one nasty *.

00:04:10.060 --> 00:04:14.350
Now, how about sharing
this ops' true objective?

00:04:15.980 --> 00:04:19.190
The mansion's owner...
What was that thing?

00:04:22.320 --> 00:04:23.900
Patrick Huge.

00:04:24.950 --> 00:04:28.370
He was controlling the group
conducting the raids

00:04:28.450 --> 00:04:31.830
and providing them with his company's
weapons free of charge.

00:04:31.910 --> 00:04:33.330
He was the mastermind.

00:04:33.830 --> 00:04:35.500
That's not what we're asking.

00:04:36.790 --> 00:04:41.050
Why did you want to apprehend
such a prominent figure?

00:04:41.130 --> 00:04:45.760
And why were you willing to sacrifice us
to hide your government's involvement?

00:04:46.970 --> 00:04:49.810
After all that's happened,
why not just come clean?

00:04:52.470 --> 00:04:54.640
If we were to get officially involved,

00:04:55.480 --> 00:05:01.110
their existence might become public,
and the world would descend into chaos.

00:05:01.440 --> 00:05:05.820
"Their existence"?
You mean there are more like him?

00:05:07.740 --> 00:05:08.570
That's right.

00:05:10.620 --> 00:05:13.040
If you'd have captured Huge alive,

00:05:13.620 --> 00:05:17.250
we might have been able to use him
to devise a countermeasure.

00:05:19.290 --> 00:05:20.130
Hold on now.

00:05:21.300 --> 00:05:24.090
You blaming us for blowing your chances?

00:05:27.340 --> 00:05:31.140
This would've turned out way better
if you'd kept us in the loop.

00:05:31.970 --> 00:05:34.350
He knows where we stand now.

00:05:36.440 --> 00:05:37.900
Time to start talking.

00:05:40.110 --> 00:05:45.650
Their cyberbrains possess processing power
far greater than any supercomputer.

00:05:46.280 --> 00:05:51.910
They were the ones who triggered
the Global Simultaneous Default.

00:05:54.620 --> 00:05:57.960
Wasn't that the G4's policy failure?

00:05:58.750 --> 00:06:02.000
It's easy to pin the blame
on the nations of this world.

00:06:02.460 --> 00:06:05.760
The truth, however, goes far beyond that.

00:06:06.260 --> 00:06:10.720
I sensed he wasn't human
when I connected to his cyberbrain.

00:06:12.850 --> 00:06:13.850
Why is that?

00:06:15.270 --> 00:06:20.730
For lack of a better term,
we refer to them as "posthuman."

00:06:22.900 --> 00:06:24.940
It's best you see it for yourselves.

00:06:31.990 --> 00:06:36.870
So the American president requested
that you come get us?

00:06:37.750 --> 00:06:39.870
Got a problem with that?

00:06:39.960 --> 00:06:41.420
Never said I did.

00:06:42.210 --> 00:06:43.210
Much appreciated.

00:06:46.550 --> 00:06:50.630
I'm impressed you were able
to track us down, Togusa.

00:06:51.590 --> 00:06:55.100
Seems your skills have improved
since we last met.

00:06:55.510 --> 00:06:59.850
Not really. It's just you guys
weren't exactly lying low out there.

00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:05.900
We may have overdone it a bit.

00:07:20.790 --> 00:07:23.290
I want all your cyberbrains offline.

00:08:13.110 --> 00:08:15.620
He was the first to be discovered.

00:08:20.660 --> 00:08:22.410
Is he conscious?

00:08:22.580 --> 00:08:23.420
Yes.

00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:27.630
However, nearly half his cerebrum
has been damaged.

00:08:28.050 --> 00:08:32.420
Unfortunately, that renders him inadequate
for our research on posthumans.

00:08:38.180 --> 00:08:40.060
-There it is. Save immediately.
-Sir.

00:08:40.220 --> 00:08:41.430
Commencing analysis.

00:08:44.770 --> 00:08:45.600
What is this?

00:08:46.060 --> 00:08:50.990
We believe he's using code to communicate,
but the data is corrupt.

00:08:51.150 --> 00:08:55.530
From what we can tell,
it's something about your visit.

00:08:56.450 --> 00:08:58.620
Maybe he's happy to see us.

00:08:58.910 --> 00:08:59.910
I wonder.

00:09:00.830 --> 00:09:04.250
We're unable to process his thoughts
in real time, so...

00:09:07.880 --> 00:09:08.880
Is she a nurse?

00:09:10.340 --> 00:09:12.130
She doesn't have a cyberbrain.

00:09:12.210 --> 00:09:13.090
Correct.

00:09:13.670 --> 00:09:16.890
A precaution to ensure
she cannot be hacked.

00:09:18.260 --> 00:09:22.930
Were he to connect to the network,
he'd take complete control of the system.

00:09:23.560 --> 00:09:25.810
We'd then be at his mercy.

00:09:26.770 --> 00:09:30.730
That's why every system
in this facility is air-gapped.

00:09:31.610 --> 00:09:34.740
Are they born with such capabilities?

00:09:35.530 --> 00:09:40.080
No, they were once ordinary human beings.

00:09:41.620 --> 00:09:45.620
Gary Harts was a master sergeant
in the Third Army, Central Command.

00:09:46.250 --> 00:09:48.830
As a young soldier,
he always did his duty,

00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:52.880
and his men had great faith in him.

00:10:13.530 --> 00:10:14.610
-Shit!
-You okay?

00:10:27.040 --> 00:10:28.120
Commander!

00:10:30.420 --> 00:10:32.630
Hang in there. We're almost there.

00:10:33.420 --> 00:10:35.090
See? We're outside.

00:10:35.340 --> 00:10:36.760
Commander, are you hurt?

00:10:37.050 --> 00:10:38.430
I'm fine.

00:10:38.550 --> 00:10:40.640
-Take care of these guys.
-Yes, sir!

00:10:42.050 --> 00:10:42.930
I'm fine.

00:10:44.220 --> 00:10:45.470
Commander!

00:10:51.520 --> 00:10:52.730
I'm good.

00:10:54.070 --> 00:10:56.570
After retiring, he moved to the suburbs,

00:10:56.690 --> 00:10:59.820
where he lived a peaceful life
with his wife and kids.

00:11:00.240 --> 00:11:03.620
But one day, he developed a high fever.

00:11:04.450 --> 00:11:07.450
Its cause was unknown,
but it continued for a week.

00:11:08.120 --> 00:11:11.710
He was unable
to even speak during that time.

00:11:12.750 --> 00:11:16.170
But after a week in that state,
he suddenly recovered.

00:11:17.050 --> 00:11:19.470
There was no damage
to his memory or speech.

00:11:19.840 --> 00:11:22.850
His family was overjoyed,
but his wife was concerned

00:11:22.930 --> 00:11:25.970
because she noticed
something different about him.

00:11:26.470 --> 00:11:28.430
That's when it happened.

00:11:31.650 --> 00:11:32.480
Honey?

00:11:34.650 --> 00:11:35.860
Where are you going?

00:11:47.450 --> 00:11:49.830
He... shot his wife?

00:11:50.580 --> 00:11:51.960
Ever since that day,

00:11:52.580 --> 00:11:54.250
Gary Harts has been missing.

00:11:59.550 --> 00:12:02.760
Can you zoom in a little more
on the D1 isolation room?

00:12:02.840 --> 00:12:03.720
Sure.

00:12:04.640 --> 00:12:06.390
-What the--?
-Hey!

00:12:06.470 --> 00:12:08.890
They're think tanks!

00:12:09.020 --> 00:12:12.270
-Don't mind us.
-Yeah.

00:12:12.350 --> 00:12:14.480
We're the latest in ride-share tech!

00:12:14.900 --> 00:12:18.730
We're killing time till our passengers
finish their business here.

00:12:19.650 --> 00:12:20.860
-Look.
-What?

00:12:21.110 --> 00:12:22.740
Isn't that a missile silo?

00:12:24.110 --> 00:12:25.160
You're right!

00:12:25.620 --> 00:12:28.540
That's so cool!

00:12:29.240 --> 00:12:31.960
A week after Harts disappeared,
the security system

00:12:32.040 --> 00:12:36.500
of a nuclear missile facility located
on a Nevadan Air Force base went down.

00:12:37.250 --> 00:12:39.590
Someone had infiltrated the facility.

00:12:42.800 --> 00:12:46.800
Every one of them had a cyberbrain
with the latest offensive barrier.

00:12:47.390 --> 00:12:49.310
Yet he hacked them in an instant?

00:12:49.390 --> 00:12:53.100
He got every last one under his control?

00:12:53.640 --> 00:13:00.030
One of the survivors reported
that his body moved against his will.

00:13:03.780 --> 00:13:04.610
Wait!

00:13:09.790 --> 00:13:11.040
The way he's moving...

00:13:12.250 --> 00:13:13.660
It's the same as Huge.

00:13:51.950 --> 00:13:56.960
This incident two months ago was
the first ever to involve a posthuman.

00:13:57.790 --> 00:14:03.300
So he tried to launch a nuke
to spark another nuclear war?

00:14:03.880 --> 00:14:05.340
His motives are unknown.

00:14:06.130 --> 00:14:09.180
However, we do know the target he set.

00:14:09.760 --> 00:14:10.930
It was Moscow.

00:14:11.850 --> 00:14:16.060
Is this objective shared
by all posthumans?

00:14:16.140 --> 00:14:17.690
We can't say for sure.

00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:21.060
But from what we've seen
while observing him,

00:14:21.150 --> 00:14:24.400
their objective is the collapse
of the existing social order.

00:14:25.860 --> 00:14:28.990
The recent terrorist acts
known as "raids" are an example

00:14:29.070 --> 00:14:32.080
of what their actions
are causing to rise to the surface.

00:14:32.160 --> 00:14:35.120
So sustainable war is also their doing?

00:14:35.830 --> 00:14:39.040
It's true that we launched
the war-as-an-industry model

00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:42.380
with the intent of making
the world economy sustainable.

00:14:42.750 --> 00:14:46.340
But that was no more than
a controlled economic action.

00:14:46.800 --> 00:14:50.050
As long as you live out of range
of the carnage,

00:14:50.300 --> 00:14:54.770
any war could be called
a controlled economic action.

00:14:55.310 --> 00:14:56.600
Exactly.

00:14:57.270 --> 00:14:59.900
Posthumans have made war the new normal.

00:15:00.270 --> 00:15:03.150
Even civilians are being dragged in.

00:15:09.490 --> 00:15:10.660
What is it, Major?

00:15:11.700 --> 00:15:15.950
He keeps throwing a paper airplane.

00:15:17.660 --> 00:15:20.120
Childhood regression due to brain damage?

00:15:20.210 --> 00:15:21.040
Look closer.

00:15:22.670 --> 00:15:26.130
Every time he throws it,
it returns right to his hand.

00:15:28.420 --> 00:15:31.680
Room temperature,
air pressure, air resistance...

00:15:32.510 --> 00:15:34.430
He must be calculating it all.

00:15:36.010 --> 00:15:37.020
Are you serious?

00:15:40.100 --> 00:15:41.350
A miscalculation?

00:15:48.400 --> 00:15:50.900
You threw it even farther
than usual today.

00:15:54.070 --> 00:15:57.740
Was he pretending
to be brain dead this whole time?

00:15:57.820 --> 00:15:58.950
She needs help!

00:15:59.320 --> 00:16:00.160
Don't!

00:16:01.660 --> 00:16:03.450
-Call the guards.
-Yes, sir.

00:16:14.130 --> 00:16:15.130
What's happening?

00:16:19.390 --> 00:16:21.640
It's a complete system malfunction.

00:16:22.220 --> 00:16:23.310
What did he do?

00:16:23.390 --> 00:16:25.220
Looks like he's taken over.

00:16:25.680 --> 00:16:28.350
It's impossible for him to connect
to the system!

00:16:28.810 --> 00:16:31.270
What about the error code
he's been sending?

00:16:31.360 --> 00:16:33.900
We've been storing it on this server.

00:16:33.980 --> 00:16:34.940
That must be it.

00:16:35.230 --> 00:16:39.070
You thought his code fragments
were messages,

00:16:39.450 --> 00:16:41.160
but they're probably a virus.

00:16:41.410 --> 00:16:43.950
He used it to infect that switch.

00:16:44.990 --> 00:16:48.290
That's the only system
connected to the entire facility.

00:16:48.870 --> 00:16:49.960
Which means...

00:17:03.560 --> 00:17:05.810
Batou! He's trying to escape!

00:17:06.480 --> 00:17:09.310
This is bad. Let's shut down the system!

00:17:13.820 --> 00:17:15.360
What's going on?

00:17:15.860 --> 00:17:18.360
It's hard to tell from just the video.

00:17:18.450 --> 00:17:20.570
Looks like fun. I'll jack in and see.

00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:30.880
New-terminal-detected-in-system.
This-one-should-prove-useful.

00:17:31.250 --> 00:17:32.920
What was that you just said?

00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:36.010
What did you connect to?

00:17:36.670 --> 00:17:38.800
Let me have a turn!

00:17:38.880 --> 00:17:42.470
My barriers are fading,
and everything is merging into one!

00:17:45.850 --> 00:17:47.140
What just happened?

00:18:28.440 --> 00:18:30.900
They'll smash their way in before long.

00:18:39.360 --> 00:18:40.200
Why you...!

00:18:48.850 --> 00:18:50.560
Don't mess with an enhanced cyborg!

00:18:57.530 --> 00:18:59.490
We won't get anywhere at this rate!

00:19:03.820 --> 00:19:07.410
I don't understand.
We already shut the system down!

00:19:09.860 --> 00:19:12.530
No! He's our only...

00:19:14.990 --> 00:19:17.070
You're in charge of this operation!

00:19:17.800 --> 00:19:19.470
Are you gonna make the call?

00:19:19.590 --> 00:19:23.220
If not, back off and let us make it!

00:19:30.100 --> 00:19:31.010
Fine.

00:19:33.100 --> 00:19:34.890
-Batou!
-I'm on it!

00:20:01.340 --> 00:20:02.750
Got a problem with that?

00:20:04.130 --> 00:20:05.380
It had to be done.

00:20:09.260 --> 00:20:12.100
EEG flatlined.
Heart-lung function stopped.

00:20:14.810 --> 00:20:16.230
That was a close one.

00:20:16.680 --> 00:20:18.020
Thanks for saving me.

00:20:18.850 --> 00:20:21.020
What the heck did you see?

00:20:22.520 --> 00:20:25.280
It's difficult to put into words.

00:20:25.980 --> 00:20:29.450
What else have you learned about them?

00:20:31.530 --> 00:20:36.700
I'll share with you all we know
at a later date.

00:20:41.910 --> 00:20:45.750
This job you accepted
doesn't look like it'll be easy.

00:20:46.210 --> 00:20:47.590
So it would seem.
