This is a reliable tip from an organ smuggler he dealt with. 08:43.580 --> 08:47.840 The International Human Rights Committee and other organizations... 08:48.090 --> 08:50.050 ...have warrants for him... 08:50.260 --> 08:54.890 ...for vivisection experiments and dealing in human organs. 08:55.220 --> 08:59.520 To which end I ask for your cooperation... 08:59.720 --> 09:06.150 ...seeing I've never been in this city and I don't know east from west here. 09:06.980 --> 09:12.190 I'd like to help, but with the celebrations for the Ziggurat... 09:12.400 --> 09:14.280 ...going on all week... 09:14.490 --> 09:20.660 ...it's taking every single person I have to keep things under control. 09:21.160 --> 09:23.750 I don't have anybody. 09:24.000 --> 09:28.420 Well, I could give you a robot if that's okay with you. 09:28.630 --> 09:31.010 A robot?! 09:31.210 --> 09:34.220 Yes.

He was a great dog. 11:56.780 --> 12:00.500 In my opinion, a criminal could not hide... 12:00.700 --> 12:03.710 ...up here in Metropolis. 12:03.920 --> 12:07.500 I have reliable sources that say he's here! 12:07.750 --> 12:12.300 Dr. Laughton would not hide up here. He would go to Zone 1. 12:12.550 --> 12:15.300 -Zone 1 ? -Underground. 12:15.470 --> 12:18.350 Hey! You are a detective! 12:18.890 --> 12:24.560 It is simply a calculation of probabilities. 12:47.210 --> 12:50.380 Robots are strictly forbidden... 12:51.090 --> 12:53.800 ...to operate outside their assigned area. 12:54.010 --> 13:00.430 That robot was not authorized to operate at surface level. 13:08.480 --> 13:13.650 Okay, but who are those guys? They look like fascists. 13:13.860 --> 13:19.030 The Malduk Party, vigilantes who started as a political group. 13:19.240 --> 13:23.580 Movement between levels is restricted. 13:23.790 --> 13:29.000 No one who carries the mark may pass through this gate. 13:29.210 --> 13:31.500 So that robot had the mark? 13:31.710 --> 13:35.260 Yes. Each block has a gate like this. 13:35.470 --> 13:40.890 There are, of course, hidden ways and people who work as guides to them. 13:41.100 --> 13:43.600 Damn right! The system's wrong! 13:48.480 --> 13:53.480 It takes light to create shadow, I guess. 13:53.820 --> 13:57.280 This level is not particularly dangerous... 13:57.490 --> 14:03.660 ...but there are places in which police writ does not run. Avoid them. 14:03.910 --> 14:09.290 We can't do that. We're not here as tourists. 15:08.890 --> 15:10.770 Duke Red. 15:11.810 --> 15:13.730 Let's see it. 15:32.250 --> 15:36.960 Very good. Isn't she finished? 15:37.170 --> 15:42.800 Her final-stage energy processor isn't stable yet. 15:43.970 --> 15:47.060 Are you using real organs? 15:47.260 --> 15:51.140 Dear me, no! That's illegal! 15:51.350 --> 15:56.190 Real organs are quicker, but they don't last very long. 15:56.400 --> 15:59.280 Hers are mechanical. I made them. 15:59.610 --> 16:04.200 She will be my masterpiece! 16:08.160 --> 16:09.790 When will you finish? 16:10.000 --> 16:14.080 Within the week. If I start her too early... 16:14.290 --> 16:19.300 ...she'll build up too much energy, catch fire and explode. 16:22.970 --> 16:25.430 My Tima.... 17:05.680 --> 17:08.970 I'm not giving you to anyone! 17:09.180 --> 17:12.730 I'll put on the finishing touches... 17:12.930 --> 17:16.230 ...and together we will flee! 17:32.910 --> 17:36.750 Rock? What are you doing here? 17:36.960 --> 17:40.420 Protecting my father is my most important task. 17:40.630 --> 17:45.550 Father?

I know what you're up to. 17:52.680 --> 17:57.810 No mad scientist is going to deceive my father. 17:59.060 --> 18:04.110 And no mannequin like this will steal his heart. 18:05.110 --> 18:06.530 Stop! 18:06.860 --> 18:11.280 It is at Duke Red's request that I've made Tima. 18:11.490 --> 18:14.790 Tima is the super-being who is to sit... 18:15.200 --> 18:18.750 ...on the Throne of Power atop the Ziggurat. 18:19.000 --> 18:24.800 You lie! He would never give the Ziggurat to a robot! 18:25.010 --> 18:28.930 Perhaps you should ask Duke Red about that. 18:29.260 --> 18:35.980 Will you destroy the super-being for whom the one you call Father waits? 18:40.020 --> 18:44.530 No robot will steal my father! 18:50.450 --> 18:53.580 No! Don't! 19:02.130 --> 19:06.210 O, ye Gods, give me courage... 19:06.420 --> 19:11.840 ...and strength to guard my father from machines! 20:11.990 --> 20:14.030 Fire!

They're organizing protests. 35:41.440 --> 35:44.530 There's fighting breaking out. 35:45.700 --> 35:48.280 This is our chance, Mr. President! 35:48.490 --> 35:53.500 We could make a case for treason here. 35:57.120 --> 35:59.590 Will the military support us? 35:59.790 --> 36:05.510 Some units are under Duke Red's influence, but I can handle that. 36:10.300 --> 36:13.310 We'll stir up the public with a few leaks. 36:13.520 --> 36:19.770 Once sentiment is against Duke Red, we'll arrest him for treason. 36:20.940 --> 36:24.570 Should military action be needed, you have... 36:24.780 --> 36:26.450 ...my approval. 36:35.120 --> 36:38.790 I suspect he was the guy who did in Laughton. 36:39.000 --> 36:43.000 What I don't understand is how they were connected. 36:43.210 --> 36:48.010 Just what was Laughton working on, anyway? 36:49.260 --> 36:51.300 What will you do? 36:51.550 --> 36:56.730 Laughton's already dead. I want, at least, to know why. 36:56.930 --> 37:00.020 My client deserves that. 37:18.080 --> 37:22.540 -Where's he going now? -Zone 2, I think. 37:22.750 --> 37:27.550 There's another level below this? How far down does this place go? 37:28.470 --> 37:32.800 Zone 2 is the Metropolis power plant area. 37:33.140 --> 37:37.520 Zone 3 below that is the sewage-handling facility. 37:37.850 --> 37:39.600 The sewage facility. 37:39.810 --> 37:45.690 You know, he was looking at a drain behind that factory. 37:47.860 --> 37:52.030 I'll report back and get permission to go below. 37:52.240 --> 37:56.950 I'll file a missing persons report on Kenichi too. 37:57.330 --> 38:01.080 -Hey! You're old for a petty thief! -Sorry! 38:02.750 --> 38:07.250 If anyone was wandering around down there... 38:07.460 --> 38:10.090 ...they'd notice him right away. 38:12.260 --> 38:14.300 How often are you down here? 38:14.550 --> 38:18.100 Twice a week, for maintenance on the robots. 38:28.320 --> 38:34.700 These are Albert ll types. It's their last check this week. 38:54.260 --> 38:56.140 Is anyone here? 39:03.730 --> 39:08.570 You never get used to the stink down here, though. 39:09.320 --> 39:13.700 No human could last a day at this work. 39:26.460 --> 39:28.590 -What is it? -Someone's there. 39:28.790 --> 39:30.460 Impossible! 39:31.460 --> 39:37.180 Hey!

They're criminals. 39:48.230 --> 39:50.480 How do we get out of here? 39:53.690 --> 39:57.990 Stop that, please! You'll hit the equipment! 40:07.290 --> 40:08.960 Are you okay? 40:25.850 --> 40:28.770 That guy's trying to kill us! 41:06.270 --> 41:08.810 Move! Move!

Fifi can't go through that gate. 42:41.990 --> 42:46.200 Thanks for everything, Fifi.

May I see your I.D.? 43:29.660 --> 43:31.790 I'm Rock of the Malduks! 43:35.370 --> 43:38.540 Demonstrations are forbidden during Celebration Week. 43:38.750 --> 43:42.260 Please disperse immediately. 43:44.010 --> 43:45.880 Kenichi? 43:48.510 --> 43:50.680 -Kenichi! -Hey! 43:52.930 --> 43:54.180 Pay up! 46:12.240 --> 46:16.040 -They're not here! -They have to be! Keep looking! 46:49.780 --> 46:52.700 Look over that way! 47:21.270 --> 47:24.810 What's the matter, Atlas? We're waiting for your signal! 47:25.020 --> 47:29.610 Not today. There are Malduks all over the place. 47:29.820 --> 47:33.950 -Was there a leak? -They're the reason. 47:35.110 --> 47:39.200 Rock's after them. Come on! 47:39.450 --> 47:43.960 He was at that factory. 47:57.600 --> 47:59.930 Who are you? Where did you come from? 48:00.140 --> 48:04.180 I'm Kenichi. I'm from Japan. My uncle's a private.... 48:04.390 --> 48:11.150 -A private what? -A journalist! I'm his assistant. 48:12.230 --> 48:14.070 Why is Rock after you? 48:14.320 --> 48:18.870 I don't know. He just started shooting at us. 48:19.070 --> 48:22.490 I don't trust them. Let's kill them. 48:23.040 --> 48:27.330 Cool it! We're not a gang. 48:27.540 --> 48:30.290 He says he's a journalist. 48:30.500 --> 48:37.840 If he can tell the world about Metropolis, that helps us! 48:38.050 --> 48:44.480 We can't waste time on nice uniforms and our pictures in the paper. 48:45.480 --> 48:48.020 The uniform I die in... 48:49.610 --> 48:52.650 ...will be the uniform of the revolution! 49:32.860 --> 49:34.530 Look at that! 49:34.730 --> 49:37.030 -She looks like an angel! -Yeah. 49:38.030 --> 49:39.950 An angel. 49:47.120 --> 49:51.540 Around here there's two or three families to a room. 49:52.670 --> 49:55.840 There are no schools and hardly any jobs. 49:56.090 --> 50:01.470 They survive on food handouts, but with the Ziggurat celebrations... 50:01.680 --> 50:03.600 ...that's all been stopped. 50:04.810 --> 50:08.310 What does "Ziggurat" mean? 50:09.440 --> 50:12.690 It's an ancient Babylonian tower. 50:12.900 --> 50:18.150 The Tower of Babel was one. You know what happened to that. 50:18.400 --> 50:22.570 The king's pride brought down the wrath of God on him. 50:23.910 --> 50:28.540 History repeats itself. The same thing will happen to Duke Red. 50:28.750 --> 50:33.130 But it won't be God this time. It'll be us. 50:58.610 --> 51:00.650 Is that wrong? 51:05.740 --> 51:11.710 No, it's fine. I was just thinking your hair's grown. 51:12.540 --> 51:16.170 What kind of hair do you like? 51:18.050 --> 51:20.670 Yours is fine right now. 51:21.760 --> 51:26.010 Let's get back to your writing. Next comes.... 51:26.220 --> 51:28.260 -Tima. -What? 51:29.010 --> 51:31.270 Tima. My name. 51:34.650 --> 51:37.770 So you remember! 51:38.480 --> 51:42.780 That's great! Now you'll start remembering more and more. 51:44.200 --> 51:47.780 Thank you, Kenichi. 51:55.250 --> 51:59.750 Oh, I forgot. I borrowed this from Atlas. 52:05.840 --> 52:07.600 Kenichi? 52:14.600 --> 52:18.690 So the army's with us? That helps a lot. 52:18.900 --> 52:21.730 The underground residents support us... 52:21.940 --> 52:26.410 ...but they're not sure if we've got the strength to win. 52:26.610 --> 52:31.370 The Malduks are to move when the Ziggurat celebrations end. 52:31.580 --> 52:37.370 We want you to crush them and storm the Ziggurat. 52:37.580 --> 52:44.050 The president will announce the arrest of Duke Red for treason. 52:44.260 --> 52:46.880 He will invoke his powers... 52:47.090 --> 52:50.970 ...to take control of the police and military. 52:51.970 --> 52:57.100 Then Metropolis will be governed by the rule of law. 52:57.650 --> 53:03.110 And we will participate as a proper political party. 53:07.910 --> 53:14.620 Of course, Atlas. The president will welcome you with open arms. 53:15.750 --> 53:18.370 The things I get myself into! 53:18.580 --> 53:21.840 I finally find that kid and look what happens! 53:22.040 --> 53:26.340 I'm sorry I could not have been of more assistance. 53:26.550 --> 53:28.630 What are you talking about? 53:28.840 --> 53:33.760 You've been lots of help! I don't know east from west here. 53:33.970 --> 53:38.640 Don't worry about Kenichi. He's tougher than he-- 53:42.060 --> 53:44.570 Cut that out! 53:50.110 --> 53:53.120 Just look at this, will you? 54:33.910 --> 54:39.870 "Watch out. Hide, robots. Coup d'état." 54:40.080 --> 54:43.170 What?! A coup d'état? 55:11.530 --> 55:13.610 Oh, man! 55:34.390 --> 55:37.510 Take a good look, Kenichi. 55:37.720 --> 55:41.600 Tell the whole world how angry we are. 56:00.540 --> 56:03.250 I'm all out of breath! 56:09.210 --> 56:13.920 We'd better get out of here, Pero. We can't do anything. 56:14.170 --> 56:16.890 Ask headquarters for backup. 56:17.050 --> 56:20.390 I'm not leaving you here! 56:20.640 --> 56:26.020 It's robots they're going to attack first! 56:27.230 --> 56:29.770 -I will be fine. -What? 56:30.440 --> 56:36.610 It is also my duty to ensure the safety of all visitors to our city. 56:36.820 --> 56:43.160 All right. Just don't stir anything up till I get back! 56:58.140 --> 57:02.430 Are you going to hold this gate all by yourself? 57:02.640 --> 57:08.100 Demonstrations are forbidden during Celebration Week. Please disperse. 57:08.350 --> 57:11.650 Sorry, we can't do that. Our time has come. 57:11.900 --> 57:17.150 Why must humanity settle matters by resorting to violence? 57:19.450 --> 57:23.950 Yes, we all know that. I agree it is a problem. 57:24.160 --> 57:28.080 It's our emotions. They vibrate, and all we can do... 57:28.290 --> 57:30.880 ...is move forward within that amplitude. 57:31.090 --> 57:35.010 But without affirming them, we can't survive. 57:59.280 --> 58:02.160 It's time for the uprising to begin. 58:02.410 --> 58:05.450 When should we release a statement? 58:06.290 --> 58:09.250 Things should be clear by about 1 p.m... 58:09.500 --> 58:12.960 ...so I suggest 3 or 3:30. 58:18.670 --> 58:21.470 What is it, minister? 58:22.600 --> 58:24.560 Hard to relax, eh? 58:24.760 --> 58:29.480 Yes, Mr. President.
