I work for the Counter-Terrorist Unit, aka CTU.
To stop the plot to assassinate female Prime Ministerial candidate Urara Asakura,
I was assigned a top secret mission.
What are the terrorists really after?
Is it connected to an operation carried out seven years ago?
We're doing everything we possibly can to investigate.
Look up.
Victor Hayashi.
You'll see I'm not lying.
Over... You mean our marriage?
It's my sons.
The assassination plot moves forward by the minute.
The day of the general election, with expectations mounting for the rise of Japan's first female Prime Minister. Tokyo, from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM. Events occur in real time.
In Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya,
Sapporo, Fukuoka, and other major cities,
candidates from the People's Party, led by Urara Asakura,
are already sure of victory in the election.
According to the program's exit polling team...
We'll finally take back power.
...votes are going to the People's Party.
Party leader Asakura confessed that her son and long-time supporters were involved in a scandal,
- Pardon me.
but the people seem to have appreciated her approach of speaking honestly about everything.
Here are the districts we're watching.
Urara, everyone's waiting for you. The star of the show has to come.
All right.
Get in.
Metropolitan Police Department
Jousai Station
Line them up!
Chiharu? Wow, it's been a while.
Who's she? What'd you do?
Hold on.
Move. That's my spot.
Here you go.
Move. That's my spot too.
Listen, everyone.
The vote counting has just started,
so I can't precisely say I've won yet, but...
The press conference after this will effectively be a declaration of victory.
Congratulations.
It's been a trying day for my family.
But I'm really glad I announced the truth.
I appreciate everyone's work from the bottom of my heart.
This victory is not mine alone, but everyone's here.
So, this is the last task for today.
No one is allowed to refuse, so listen carefully.
Everyone, applaud each other!
Yes ma'am!
- Ma'am! - Party leader!
Now that Alexis is in custody,
we can view the danger of party leader Asakura being assassinated as almost past.
I'm not so sure about that...
Why do you think that?
Was there really nothing in Gotemba?
There was nothing. Just darkness.
The blackout must've meant something else.
I don't think anything would happen if they caused a power outage in a place like that.
- Chief Mizuishi, you have a call. - Who is it?
- Captain Shidou. - What?! I'll get it!
- Ah, no... - It's Onitsuka!
Division head! There was a special detention facility underground in sector A51.
- Facility? - Yeah. A facility that isn't public knowledge.
In it was Victor Hayashi.
What?!
You mean the Victor Hayashi who should've died seven years ago?
Yes. He's right in front of me right now.
That's ridiculous!
It's true! It was just bombed and lost power.
Victor's sons did it. Send backup ASAP!
- Are you safe? - It's a fairly dangerous situation.
Got it. I'll ask my superiors.
There's no time for that! If they take Victor, we're done for!
Don't you understand that?!
Hold on...!
Make a decision! It's on you!
Division head, what's going on in Gotemba?
We're sending a backup unit to Gotemba sector A51 ASAP!
- I'll take responsibility! - Yes sir!
- And call the director! - Roger!
Please wait! Just what happened?
Is the captain okay?!
Are you that concerned about your affair?!
How you feel about him is pointless!
Division head...!
When Shidou was no good, you made a move on Nanjou next.
Where did you leave your rationality?
- Please mind your manners! - Know your place!
This is advice from me.
Stay rational.
Chief.
Ah, Mrs. Shidou...!
Ms. Mizuishi, where's my husband?
He's out on a mission right now.
Did you tell him that I'm safe?
- Not yet. - Why not?
We can't contact him.
So my husband doesn't know?
About the horrible things that happened to us at the safehouse...
- No. - Where's Miyu?
We're looking for her now.
Anyway, I need to talk to my husband soon.
Hey, what do I do?
Ma'am, please calm down.
The captain is in the middle of a dangerous mission.
We can't talk to him on the phone right now.
A dangerous situation...?
What do you mean?
I can't tell you more...
It never ends...!
I'm sorry. In any case, we can only wait for now...
First of all, let me ask you what happened at your home.
I already told Mr. Nanjou...
Could you tell me everything again?
No matter how trivial, it could be valuable information.
For the captain's sake.
All right.
But I just want to know if my husband and Miyu are safe.
Understand how I feel.
Of course. I'll tell you as soon as I know.
Seguchi, can you hear me?
Fuji, respond!
- Where's the exit?! - Go out there and to the right.
Wait. I'll have him open it.
Open it!
Go through!
Fuji, respond! Fuji, can't you hear me?!
Hey! Where'd you agree to meet your friends?!
If they touch my people, I'll never forgive you!
- It's them! - Back the way we came!
I just sent a backup unit to the facility. I'd like to get approval.
Do you have any other messages?
- Just please have them call me right away. - Roger.
Yes.
Ah... it's captain Shidou's wife.
Have you been interviewed?
Not yet... They're setting up the conference room.
Um... I know I'm intruding,
but I asked Ms. Mizuishi and it was no use...
I just want to know what happened to my daughter Miyu.
I only know as much as Mizuishi...
But it'll be okay. I'm sure she's safe.
What makes you think that?
I heard from Nanjou.
The hit man who came to your house
tried to get information about your daughter's whereabouts, didn't he?
Yes...
That's proof that they're searching for her too.
In that case, we have the advantage. We have a lot of people searching for her.
It'll be okay. I'll be sure to let you know as soon as we find your daughter.
Please...!
Shidou is a valuable colleague to us.
Thank you very much...!
Not at all. This is our duty.
- Onitsuka. - It's Mizuishi.
The backup unit will arrive in ten minutes.
Who has command of the unit,
us or the Foreign Affairs Inspectorate?
Us.
Let me know as soon as they arrive.
- Was that about the mission my husband is on? - I'm very sorry,
but I'm quite busy right now.
As soon as I hear from Shidou, I'll be sure to let you know.
If you need anything,
just let Tanaka from the staff downstairs know.
Thank you.
It'll be okay. Cheer up.
Yes.
Tanaka? Shidou's wife just went downstairs.
- Entertain her. - How, exactly?
It doesn't matter! Just go along with it!
Just don't let her bother me any more!
- Ms. Aikawa. - Yes.
- Where's Akiyama? - Finishing up the speech in the room.
- Mago, hold on a minute. - Yeah.
Akiyama.
Ah, ma'am, perfect timing.
I was reviewing the speech draft.
I've fixed the items you pointed out. Could you go over it?
Of course.
What's the matter?
Oh... I'm just tired.
Say, what if you move this second section to last and end with "party unity"?
Good idea. I'll fix it right away.
Thank you.
- Ah, ma'am... - What?
I've been meaning to tell you for a long time,
but I haven't really had a chance.
I... deeply respect you, ma'am.
No matter what happens, you stick to your beliefs without yielding.
I think you're more worthy than anyone to be this country's Prime Minister.
With you leading it,
I believe that this country will always be on the right path.
What is it?
Nothing... I was a bit embarrassed.
But I'm glad. Thank you.
I'll fix the draft right away.
Thank you.
Agawa, it's Onitsuka. What's your current position?
We're almost at the designated area.
What do you know about the situation?
We can't see anything from the outside.
We're descending now. We'll go in as soon as we land.
I'm counting on you.
Father!
Andre!
Don't move!
Get back! Come close and I shoot!
Don't move! Be quiet!
- Get back, Andre! - Drop your weapon!
He'll die.
Shidou! Don't worry about me!
It's been blown up!
What?!
Are they inside the facility?
I don't know!
You have three seconds!
3! 2! 1...!
Okay! I'll drop it, so don't shoot.
- Father! - Andre!
What happened to Alexis?
I've lost contact with him. He's probably... already dead.
There's enemies outside!
How many?
Six armed men!
Alright! Block this passage.
We'll take him along as a hostage. He'll be a bargaining chip.
- Hurry up! Quick! - Run!
Now our own escape route is gone.
You think so?
When we get out of here, we'll settle this for good.
Do you hate me?
Huh? I sure don't like you.
You said I was involved in the deal...
I got brought in because of your lies.
- What about it? - I was just at that house.
But you came there on your own. Because you thought it was Ken's house.
- That loser... - He's not a loser!
You're defending the guy who kidnapped you?
Ken didn't know the reason for kidnapping me.
He was just being used by your boyfriend.
In the first place, the idea that you want to try doing something a little bit bad
even though you were raised all spoiled and comfy is lame.
What is that? You don't even know me.
What? Is there something you want to say?
Don't just go calling me "sheltered" and "spoiled."
Do you have any idea what I've been through?
I was kidnapped, imprisoned, almost killed over and over again...
Your problems until now don't even compare!
You said you'd settle this?
Come at me! I'll take you on as much as you want.
Keep it down!
Be quiet!
Get away from her.
There are plenty of ways out.
I must seem like a demon to you.
Even going after your precious wife and daughter.
You've always been a demon.
How much do you know about the old me?
At best, you've read intelligence agencies' reports.
They only write what pleases the higher-ups.
Can you understand me from that?
How far do you have to go before you're satisfied?
It's not just me and party leader Asakura.
Are you going to kill all your other enemies?
That's right. It's simple.
It's all a delusion!
Delusion?
Shidou, that delusion
is getting closer to reality right now.
Division head!
- It's Andre Hayashi. - What...?
Onitsuka.
Hold on.
Father, it's Onitsuka from the CTU.
Yeah.
It's Victor Hayashi.
- In the flesh? - Of course.
What do you want?
I was wondering if you wanted to talk to me.
We don't negotiate with terrorists.
But let's just talk.
Genba Shidou is here.
Don't you want him back alive?
Do you have proof that he's safe?
It's Onitsuka. Talk to him.
Division head, there's at least six heavily armed men...!
Hey, Shidou! Shidou! Are you okay?! Hey!
You hear that? He's the picture of health.
Full of life.
All right. I'll talk to my superiors about what comes next.
I'll contact you again.
Shidou...
has fallen into Andre and Victor Hayashi's hands.
They've also taken over the facility.
At least six enemies, heavily armed.
- Nanjou, tell the backup unit! - Roger!
- Mizuishi, how about details on the facility? - They're collected, to some extent.
- Alright, then send them to me. - Before that...
- What? - How's the captain?!
He's alive.
- It's going to be a long battle. - I know.
Mizuishi, you should also consider the worst-case scenario.
If it's hard for you, I can have someone else take over.
It's okay.
I see. Okay, then.
Nanjou, the director?
I still can't get him!
Seven years ago...
What?
This means you weren't the one in the blown-up building.
A double?
It's an old trick.
I didn't know anyone would fall for it.
That's horrible.
What is?
The fact that you used a double
means that you knew you were in danger.
But you didn't say anything to your family.
So it's you who's responsible for your family's deaths.
It wasn't in the plan.
Back then...
my wife and daughters were traveling.
But my daughter got sick, so they came home a day earlier.
Because of that...
But it's true
that maybe I should have been more careful.
- Father, are you okay? - Yeah...
These past seven years,
I've suffered for the deaths of my wife and children.
Now you'll have a taste
of that suffering!
Huh? How'd you bring that in?
There's a good way.
- Seriously? Tell me. - It's tough without it.
I know. Wow. Nice...
Crap, watch out...
Huh?
- Who was smoking? - Her.
It wasn't me!
Then why is it lying there?
Pick it up.
Pick it up!
Get out.
I didn't do it!
Huh? Quit it!
- Don't screw with me...! - What?!
- What?! Hey! - It's yours!
- It's yours! Pick it up! - I told you it isn't!
Wait!
She didn't do it.
What? Are you saying I'm lying?
- Yeah. - Don't screw with me!
You were bragging about having a good way.
- Hold it! - Hey! You damn brat!
You, get out. I'll reexamine you.
I didn't do it!
Dammit! What the hell?!
Wait.
I want to talk to the detective from before.
Tell him I want to tell the whole truth about what happened.
I'll be honest this time.
Come out.
You called?
What's the latest on the captain's daughter's whereabouts?
We're still searching. We should probably widen the estimated radius.
- Got it. Do that. - Should we tell his wife what's going on?
Not yet. We haven't even finished the interview.
Roger.
What?
How's the captain?
It sounds like a pretty bad situation.
He'll have to manage somehow.
Are you okay, chief?
- Me? - Yeah.
The worse-case scenario! The division head said something like that.
Hey Milo, don't be asking the chief this and that.
Okay okay.
It's been little more than half an hour since the ballot boxes closed,
but the People's Party candidates are being elected one after another.
Immediately following the press conference, the Internet...
Yes.
Ma'am, would you review the draft?
Yes. Hold on.
It's much better now.
Thank you very much.
Yes, come in.
Ma'am, everything is ready.
Tell them I'll be there in 20 minutes.
All right.
Akiyama, hold on. Let me read it through to the end.
- Shall I leave? - No, you can stay.
Yes ma'am.
What is it?
You take on too much, ma'am.
You're always thinking of and putting everyone else first...
I think you can rely on others more.
I do rely on others.
On you and the rest of the trusted staff.
I hope so...
I'm fine.
Thank you. It's much better now.
It's a great speech that'll win people over.
I just adapted the words you always say.
Is your neck stiff?
Am I that old already?
Please relax.
I'm confident in my massages.
You seem to be quite tired.
That feels good.
Thank you. That's enough.
Or I won't want to leave this room.
Hey, Mom, Mago is calling you.
Division head Onitsuka, it's director Nakasone.
This is Onitsuka.
It's Nakasone.
Where have you been until now?
I've been calling you over and over.
I was getting a good scolding from the top of the Foreign Affairs Inspectorate.
I'm cleaning up your mistakes.
My mistakes? What do you mean?
You let Genba Shidou do whatever he wanted!
But he's getting results.
- How? - If it weren't for him,
Victor Hayashi would've escaped by now.
That would've been unfortunate for you.
You're wrong.
It's those "results" that are the problem!
What does that mean?
Think about it.
Victor Hayashi is on record as dead!
It's impossible for a dead man to escape!
Why'd you send in troops when you should've left it alone?!
What if the police or media find out?!
Settle this by force right now.
By force how?
Don't make me finish.
It's what he gets for doing whatever he wants.
If you can't do it, I'll get someone else to!
We'll be launching an all-out attack in five minutes.
We're preparing additional troops now.
What about the captain? What'll happen to him?
He said it's what he gets for doing whatever he wants.
I'm sorry.
CTU.
This is Kurumai from the Jousai Police Station.
Do you know someone named Miyu Shidou?
Yes. I know her.
She asked me to call you.
The captain's daughter is here.
Is she okay?
She's brimming with energy.
- Huh? The captain's daughter? - Yes.
Really? Ahh, thank goodness.
Right. Yes. Got it.
I'll inform her mother right away.
- Let's go. - Yes.
Then I'll stop tracking her.
- Yeah. Thanks. - Yup.
Have you learned anything?
We've found your daughter.
She's at a police station and will be here soon.
- Ah... really? - Really.
Can I talk to her right now?
I'll check.
I'm happy for you.
I'm so... relieved.
What is it?
Mrs. Shidou...
I need to talk to you about the captain. Please sit down.
Did something happen to my husband...?
You said you wanted me to let you know...
Please listen calmly.
It seems likely that
the captain has been captured by the people who attacked you.
Ah... but he's okay.
Additional troops are being sent in, and I'm sure everything will work out.
The captain is strong,
so I'm sure...
no, I know,
that he'll overcome any difficulties.
Let's believe in him and wait.
Team 1 is in.
Explosives are set.
Do it.
We're going in.
What about Shidou?
Don't worry about him!
Focus on getting Victor!
Roger!
- Miyu Shidou. - What?
Come out. You're being released.
Were you able to talk to my father?
No, I talked to someone from the same department.
I heard from that woman.
She said she was lying.
And that you have nothing to do with this drug case.
I heard what happened. You've had a tough time.
- I just want to see my mother. - She's waiting for you at the CTU.
- Really? - I'll take you there.
- You can call her from the car. - Thank you.
Mago.
Urara, do me a favor.
Yes, what is it?
Smile.
This isn't business, I really mean it.
You rode the big wave.
Tomorrow will be another battle.
Just for today, you should be happy.
Yes, it's been a rough day.
It's okay to let loose.
I can't.
There's the Yuuta matter,
and, as you can see, things aren't going well with my husband.
Once you're in the Kantei, you'll be a completely public figure.
Else you wouldn't be able to be Prime Minister.
If Youhei can support you, that's great, of course.
And if not?
If not...
that's all there is to it.
You can do whatever you want.
All right.
Shall we go?
Yes.
Hey, report.
Three dead. No sign of the enemy in section 1.
No enemies in section 2.
Kashimoto, what's the situation inside?
The head and other personnel are all dead.
There's no sign of the enemy anywhere!
Mr. Kashimoto!
The wall has been destroyed!
What's beyond it?
They appear to have fled across the passage.
Kashimoto, what's going on? Hey!
It's a laser-sensitive bomb.
- Can you disarm it? - If there's time.
How long would it take?
About 30 minutes.
- Get started immediately! - Roger!
Andre, well done.
Shidou...
This is as far as you go.
- Wait! - Now you complain?
Don't worry. Your wife and daughter will be right behind you.
Don't you want to see Alexis?
That trick won't work anymore.
My son is... Alexis is dead.
We caught him and he's in the hospital right now!
Nonsense!
He met with a woman from the campaign staff in his hotel room at 4:30!
It's true.
Don't you want to know where he is now?
Bastard...!
Father!
Put him in!
Hey.
You were worried about... Miyu, was that her name?
She's been released.
- Really? - Yeah.
The other woman's testimony was the deciding factor.
Chiharu...
What's with the happy face?
Well, I'd be celebrating... if my girl were freed.
No... I told you, she's not my girl.
Can I call her?
Yeah.
Thanks.
Hello?
Excuse me, it's Nanjou.
There's a call from your daughter, so I'll put her through.
- Really? - Yes.
- Hello? - Miyu...!
Mom...?
Thank goodness. You're okay.
Yeah. I'm on the way there now.
I can't tell you how worried I was...
I was worried too. Where's Dad?
He's just out on a job. I'm waiting for him to call.
I see.
Then I'll talk to you later.
Yeah. I'll be waiting.
- Bye. - Okay.
I'm sorry for doubting you.
It's okay. It was understandable.
- Are you okay? - Yes.
- It's the girl. Drag her out. - What the hell?!
- Get her in the car! - Let go!
- No! Hey! - Shut up!
Let go! Hey! Get off me!
- Get in! - No!
