00:16.220 --> 00:19.780
Hello, this is Pinochle's
Old Maid Street branch.

00:21.570 --> 00:22.790
Understood, sir.

00:36.270 --> 00:41.930
Our target is the jack of hearts, "Sky Dancer,"
and its player, Jason Daltrey.

00:42.710 --> 00:45.550
His power is rapid aerial movement.

00:45.550 --> 00:48.770
To catch him, we'll have
to chase him in the air.

00:49.970 --> 00:51.270
Okay.

00:51.270 --> 00:55.670
So today's job is a thrilling airborne race!

00:57.160 --> 01:00.250
Finn, did you learn how to fly in that thing?

01:00.250 --> 01:02.780
I'm sure flapping the wings'll do the trick.

01:02.780 --> 01:03.830
You idiot!

01:04.220 --> 01:06.750
If you fall from this height, you're dead.

01:06.750 --> 01:07.960
Take this seriously.

01:07.960 --> 01:09.400
Yeah, yeah.

01:09.400 --> 01:11.980
You're immortal,
so you'll be fine if you fall.

01:11.980 --> 01:14.060
<i>We'll be above the target soon.</i>

01:14.060 --> 01:16.370
<i>Are you all prepared?</i>

01:17.160 --> 01:19.010
We got this, old man.

01:19.010 --> 01:21.350
As High Card, we need...

01:21.350 --> 01:23.810
Manners, grace, and...

01:23.810 --> 01:26.100
...a readiness to risk our lives, right?

01:26.530 --> 01:28.850
<i>High Card, mobilize.</i>

01:32.860 --> 01:34.190
I'm counting on you.

01:36.020 --> 01:37.700
You're coming with!

01:37.700 --> 01:39.440
W-Wait...!

01:39.440 --> 01:41.700
Y-You bastard!

01:49.830 --> 01:51.170
Play...

01:54.090 --> 01:55.750
"Neo New Nambu"!

01:57.420 --> 01:59.090
Let's do this in style!

03:34.280 --> 03:36.240
Mornin'. The usual, please.

03:36.240 --> 03:39.110
No cabbage or pickles. Extra ketchup.

03:49.560 --> 03:51.870
Good morning, sir.

03:52.320 --> 03:55.000
Good morning, my boy.

03:58.590 --> 04:01.210
Getting tired of picking me up every morning?

04:01.210 --> 04:04.010
Oh, please, it's the least I can do for you.

04:04.590 --> 04:08.040
You've taught me everything,
from how to mop to how to treat customers.

04:08.040 --> 04:11.080
I was hoping you could teach
me how to seduce ladies next.

04:11.080 --> 04:15.190
How are you in that department, sir?

04:15.650 --> 04:19.570
C'mon, it's really weird for you
to be treating me like this.

04:20.010 --> 04:21.920
I don't see why.

04:21.920 --> 04:23.820
You outrank me now, after all.

04:30.320 --> 04:31.090
Say...

04:31.430 --> 04:32.010
Hmm?

04:33.500 --> 04:35.450
How is Michel these days?

04:37.950 --> 04:40.270
She's doing really well recently.

04:40.890 --> 04:43.960
I might be able to take her out
to the theme park.

04:44.590 --> 04:45.400
Good.

04:49.500 --> 04:51.050
Let's see some ID.

04:53.470 --> 04:55.620
What brings you downtown?

04:55.620 --> 04:57.630
Important business.

04:57.630 --> 04:59.100
On today of all days?

04:59.100 --> 05:00.050
Where do you work?

05:00.050 --> 05:02.300
Pinochle's Old Maid Street branch.

05:09.980 --> 05:12.740
Security is heavier than usual.

05:12.740 --> 05:14.670
Did you forget, Finn?

05:14.670 --> 05:15.780
Today is...

05:16.830 --> 05:18.150
Oh.

05:30.050 --> 05:35.520
<i>Prince Dylan was the crown prince
of the Fourland Kingdom and most beloved son</i>

05:35.520 --> 05:37.150
<i>to His Majesty King Julius.</i>

05:37.650 --> 05:41.030
<i>The citizens adored him for his sincerity,</i>

05:41.030 --> 05:44.530
<i>and across the country,
the people mourn his death.</i>

05:45.090 --> 05:51.390
<i>A series of despicable terrorist acts
stole not just our nation's peace,</i>

05:51.390 --> 05:56.090
<i>but also the prince, our future leader.</i>

05:57.070 --> 06:01.310
<i>Yet we must forge on and move forward,</i>

06:01.880 --> 06:06.180
<i>along with the second and third princes,
Prince Louis and Prince Noah,</i>

06:06.180 --> 06:08.590
<i>who will uphold Prince Dylan's legacy.</i>

06:13.380 --> 06:14.640
<i>Dylan...</i>

06:14.640 --> 06:20.220
<i>Though your life was cut short
and your soul has ascended to heaven,</i>

06:20.220 --> 06:23.870
<i>we have no time to stop and mourn.</i>

06:24.190 --> 06:29.490
<i>The royal family will carry on your wishes
and usher our nation into the future.</i>

06:29.710 --> 06:34.880
His own son is dead,
yet he's kind of cold and distant.

06:35.670 --> 06:38.750
I'd expect no less of our client!

06:39.290 --> 06:43.250
You saying that because we collect cards
for the royal family?

06:44.190 --> 06:48.310
Recently, they've been showering
the president with orders.

06:48.310 --> 06:50.510
Really puts the squeeze on us field agents.

06:50.940 --> 06:54.640
I don't have it in me
for one big fight after another.

06:56.020 --> 06:58.270
I bet <i>you</i> probably do.

06:58.760 --> 07:00.420
Man, I'm beat!

07:00.420 --> 07:02.940
I'm so tired and my shoulders
are so stiff I could die!

07:02.940 --> 07:05.020
I'll leave the rest to you, <i>sir</i>.

07:05.020 --> 07:06.910
Wait, you do it!

07:06.910 --> 07:07.900
You're the newbie.

07:11.450 --> 07:13.240
By the way, where's Leo?

07:13.240 --> 07:16.840
I believe he went to see the president
to make a report.

07:21.410 --> 07:22.750
Your Majesty.

07:24.750 --> 07:25.780
Not now.

07:25.780 --> 07:26.600
His Majesty is—

07:26.600 --> 07:27.630
It's fine.

07:29.900 --> 07:34.010
We never expected this
incident to escalate so.

07:34.660 --> 07:37.050
We knew the Klondikes were on the move,

07:37.400 --> 07:40.880
but I am to blame for not
handling the situation properly.

07:43.610 --> 07:49.530
On that beautiful night,
the cards were released into the world.

07:50.010 --> 07:55.030
Over the ages, they have chosen their
players and sought to be connected...

07:55.460 --> 07:59.540
If this continues, the chaos will never end.

08:00.800 --> 08:03.540
We have but one recourse.

08:04.410 --> 08:06.750
Return as many cards as possible

08:06.750 --> 08:10.550
to the royal family
before the coronation in January.

08:10.550 --> 08:13.920
I understand that to be Pinochle's mission.

08:17.580 --> 08:23.230
The connections between the cards and their
players shall be severed at the coronation.

08:28.940 --> 08:31.420
I've been waiting for you, sir.

08:31.420 --> 08:33.440
I brought the card we collected.

08:34.780 --> 08:36.450
Then hand it over.

08:38.240 --> 08:42.150
In fact, we need you to pick up
the pace on card retrieval.

08:42.150 --> 08:45.580
The president is worried
about High Card's slow returns.

08:46.240 --> 08:47.080
President!

08:49.080 --> 08:53.100
If you have complaints, then talk
to me directly instead of through him!

08:53.100 --> 08:54.090
I lead our field—

08:54.090 --> 08:57.370
<i>I'm</i> in charge of managing the cards.

08:57.370 --> 08:58.090
Now, then...

09:09.970 --> 09:12.270
The jack of hearts, I see.

09:12.810 --> 09:16.190
I'd suggest you make sure
the Klondikes don't swipe it.

09:16.670 --> 09:20.700
I'd suggest you do not underestimate
my "Red Labyrinth."

09:21.040 --> 09:22.700
Owen, enough.

09:39.670 --> 09:41.720
I've given your next job to Bernard.

09:42.070 --> 09:43.260
See to it immediately.

10:06.520 --> 10:08.340
I knew this would be a bust.

10:08.340 --> 10:11.250
How?! We had them completely surrounded!

10:11.630 --> 10:14.060
Investigation information was leaked.

10:14.060 --> 10:16.670
It's practically a miracle we got a warrant.

10:16.670 --> 10:21.010
Just goes to show they were that confident
we couldn't catch them.

10:21.010 --> 10:22.550
There was a leak?

10:24.510 --> 10:28.830
Ban Klondike is a key material witness
in the assassination of the crown prince!

10:28.830 --> 10:31.140
What is going on in this country?!

10:31.380 --> 10:33.120
Quit yelling.

10:34.460 --> 10:38.370
Anything involving cards is above
peons like us who deal with the public.

10:38.370 --> 10:41.160
That's the unspoken rule here.

10:42.760 --> 10:44.350
Even so...

10:45.000 --> 10:47.160
I still want to know the truth!

10:49.620 --> 10:50.830
Get down!

11:04.060 --> 11:05.010
Captain?

11:05.010 --> 11:06.340
Captain Young!

11:19.050 --> 11:21.100
Is... that...?

11:36.000 --> 11:37.380
Hello, Finn!

11:39.600 --> 11:40.720
Lindsey!

11:41.330 --> 11:42.680
How're Sam and the others?

11:42.680 --> 11:44.890
They're doing well at the temporary facility.

11:45.510 --> 11:46.720
Good.

11:46.720 --> 11:50.880
When the new Sun Fields is ready,
they can come back home.

11:51.640 --> 11:55.890
An entrepreneur who saw the news
volunteered to finance us.

11:55.890 --> 11:59.380
He even bought the property from the landlord.

11:59.380 --> 12:02.780
Man, I was going to do that.

12:02.780 --> 12:05.030
Whoever it is has good taste.

12:06.860 --> 12:11.880
I suggested that we rename
the orphanage Apple Fields in his honor.

12:11.880 --> 12:13.040
But he refused.

12:13.040 --> 12:15.530
Apple? You mean...

12:15.530 --> 12:19.300
The founder of the IT company Mizerka,
Mr. Apple Link.

12:19.810 --> 12:20.800
Do you know him?

12:21.090 --> 12:22.590
Do I know him?!

12:22.590 --> 12:24.150
He's one of my customers!

12:24.150 --> 12:26.290
He was the first to buy a car from me!

12:26.290 --> 12:28.710
What a lovely coincidence.

12:28.710 --> 12:30.680
I'll thank him next time I see him!

12:31.050 --> 12:32.460
Please do.

12:33.970 --> 12:36.660
Now, about the reason you're here...

12:38.920 --> 12:39.790
I'm ready.

12:40.170 --> 12:43.190
Tell me about my family.

12:45.220 --> 12:46.240
Okay.

12:48.640 --> 12:50.550
The Oldman murder case

12:51.480 --> 12:55.780
was a news sensation that swept
TV stations and papers alike.

12:56.620 --> 13:00.210
It happened just after
the turn of the year, on January 3rd.

13:00.780 --> 13:04.210
The family celebrated
their son's birthday into the night.

13:06.420 --> 13:10.970
As the date changed over,
they put in a call for help.

13:12.970 --> 13:17.020
When police arrived, the house
was already engulfed in flame.

13:17.890 --> 13:20.010
Of the wealthy family of four,

13:20.010 --> 13:22.810
the parents and eldest son
were presumed murdered

13:22.810 --> 13:25.360
before the house was set ablaze.

13:26.190 --> 13:31.080
I say "presumed" because the inferno
reduced everything to ash.

13:31.080 --> 13:33.410
There were barely remains left.

13:35.220 --> 13:40.830
In the midst of that night, they found
a young boy standing alone in the yard.

13:41.080 --> 13:42.720
Emergency responders saved him,

13:43.570 --> 13:48.170
but perhaps due to the trauma, he
could recall nothing from before the tragedy.

13:48.780 --> 13:52.180
His name was Finn Oldman.
That boy was you.

13:53.320 --> 13:59.940
And then you came to Sun Fields
with only a card on you.

14:00.870 --> 14:03.650
Who could say what horrors you'd witnessed?

14:05.830 --> 14:10.770
I decided to keep the incident to myself
and never bring it up with you.

14:12.470 --> 14:16.160
Until you grew up and were
ready for the truth, that is.

14:18.930 --> 14:23.710
To this day, the culprit hasn't been caught.
The case is considered cold.

14:24.460 --> 14:29.340
That's all I know about
what happened to your family.

14:30.500 --> 14:32.840
So <i>that's</i> what it was...

14:33.570 --> 14:34.320
Finn?

14:36.340 --> 14:38.100
Thank you for telling me.

14:42.780 --> 14:44.110
<i>I'm sure of it now.</i>

14:47.010 --> 14:51.650
<i>The only explanation is an X-Playing Card.</i>

14:58.480 --> 15:01.550
<i>Sorry to ruin your paid leave,
but we've got a job.</i>

15:01.550 --> 15:02.770
<i>Where are you?</i>

15:02.770 --> 15:04.880
Near Sun Fields.

15:04.880 --> 15:06.210
<i>Perfect.</i>

15:06.210 --> 15:08.130
<i>It's not too far from there.</i>

15:08.710 --> 15:12.630
A furry monster has appeared
in Hopkins National Park.

15:12.850 --> 15:15.150
People are making a fuss that it's a cryptid,

15:15.150 --> 15:18.510
like Bigfoot or a yeti,
but it's obviously a player.

15:18.930 --> 15:20.020
Please hurry.

15:20.400 --> 15:21.280
Got it.

15:37.660 --> 15:39.620
Oh, come on now.

15:39.620 --> 15:42.460
Not a big fan of gorillas,
thank you very much!

15:42.790 --> 15:43.930
Chris?

15:43.930 --> 15:45.460
Hey, Chris?!

15:54.840 --> 15:56.510
Ever thought about hair removal?

15:56.510 --> 15:57.720
Might make you popular.

16:00.200 --> 16:03.620
You're "THE ZOO" player
with the 6 of hearts, huh?

16:03.620 --> 16:05.610
That makes us neighbors.

16:06.260 --> 16:10.320
Sorry, but I'm here to take your card!

16:24.770 --> 16:26.500
Thanks, ma'am!

16:32.010 --> 16:33.440
Where are you?

16:42.100 --> 16:43.380
Take this!

16:50.170 --> 16:51.880
Stop running away!

17:02.120 --> 17:04.330
Wh-What was that?

17:08.120 --> 17:09.650
Damn it...

17:14.850 --> 17:16.010
Bring it!

17:21.850 --> 17:23.350
Chris!

17:26.480 --> 17:28.130
Are you okay, Chris?!

17:28.130 --> 17:29.940
I just tripped, that's all.

17:29.940 --> 17:31.180
Go after him.

17:31.180 --> 17:31.730
Got it!

17:47.210 --> 17:48.000
Huh?

18:40.820 --> 18:42.730
You're...

18:51.130 --> 18:52.100
Finn!

18:52.790 --> 18:53.590
What's wrong?

18:56.240 --> 18:58.610
Who the hell is that in the armor?

18:59.400 --> 19:00.330
He's...

19:01.140 --> 19:04.240
He's the man from my nightmare...

19:07.250 --> 19:08.790
The Black Knight.

19:10.360 --> 19:11.210
What?!

19:34.040 --> 19:35.520
Finn, get up!

19:46.180 --> 19:47.310
Stop.

19:50.380 --> 19:52.700
You're a sad existence.

19:53.620 --> 19:55.690
You can't help but destroy everything.

19:56.400 --> 19:58.920
Including even yourself, eventually...

20:23.570 --> 20:26.030
The Black Knight, you say?

20:26.560 --> 20:31.290
He wears black armor,
and according to Finn, he ate the card.

20:31.290 --> 20:34.960
I've never heard of such an ability.

20:34.960 --> 20:35.670
Leo?

20:37.350 --> 20:41.400
The company only divulges information
it deems to be necessary.

20:41.710 --> 20:44.310
The less people know
about the cards, the better.

20:44.830 --> 20:46.680
That's the rule of this country.

20:46.980 --> 20:48.800
Talk about a pain!

20:48.800 --> 20:51.680
Want me to just kill them all?

20:51.980 --> 20:54.630
Love-P, you're our ace in the hole, so...

20:55.370 --> 20:56.940
Kidding! I'm only kidding!

20:57.380 --> 20:59.630
Here are your orders.

20:59.630 --> 21:04.670
A chai, a coke, a café au
lait float, and another beer.

21:05.850 --> 21:07.110
Thanks, Chelsea.

21:07.110 --> 21:09.160
Does the float have extra ice cream?

21:09.160 --> 21:12.480
You've got to cut back on sweet stuff.

21:12.480 --> 21:14.200
Wait, where's Finn?

21:14.410 --> 21:18.080
Oh, he seemed under the weather,
so I drove him home.

21:18.690 --> 21:20.410
Like any good newbie would.

21:25.900 --> 21:28.090
It was him. He...

21:30.740 --> 21:31.740
killed my family.

21:34.630 --> 21:35.950
I see.

21:36.780 --> 21:38.120
Got it.

21:38.120 --> 21:40.390
Leave the rest to us.

21:41.010 --> 21:43.230
You just need to sit tight.

21:45.650 --> 21:47.110
Hear that, Zenon?

21:50.150 --> 21:52.620
This country is about to change.

21:53.100 --> 21:57.620
It'll do a one-eighty, turning on its head.

21:57.620 --> 21:59.370
Sounds good to me.

22:00.290 --> 22:02.980
The fun is about to start.

23:36.510 --> 23:39.240
Next time: "TRUTH OF THE HERO."
