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.
Ma'am, there's something by your mouth...
To take Alexis out.
It vanished...
If you value your daughter's life,
head to Urara Asakura's hotel immediately.
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 10:00 PM to 11:00 PM. Events occur in real time.
Shidou, hurry up.
What am I going to party leader Asakura's hotel for?
The government froze 20 billion yen of my father's assets seven years ago.
I'll make Urara Asakura issue an order to release them.
So it was about money in the end.
It's not that simple.
But I want the money back if possible.
Besides, it's our family's money to start with.
Anything else?
I'll call that cell phone at 10:30.
Have Urara Asakura pick it up.
Wait. When will you return my daughter? That comes first!
Once the deposit is confirmed, I'll give you further instructions.
What instructions?
Are you planning to make me kill the party leader?
Of course. That's why I let you go.
Got it? Make sure you put Urara Asakura on the phone right on time.
Following the accomplishment of a historic change of government...
Yes.
Pardon me.
So this is where you were. What about the vote counting center?
I was just taking a short break. It's okay, I'll be back in a bit.
Do you need something?
I was wondering if there were any issues with tomorrow's schedule.
I confirmed it.
Is there anything else I can do for you?
Sit down.
Things got a little weird between us earlier, didn't they?
Yes. I'm sorry about that.
Sorry? Really?
How do you truly feel?
I like you, ma'am. I have for a long time.
I'm no match for you. It's wrong. We're incompatible...
I know... I know all that.
But I can't stop liking you.
Room 915 in 20 minutes.
I'll be waiting.
Urara.
Then, I'll adjust the schedule.
Yes, thank you.
C'mon!
- Get off me...! - Shut up! Sit!
Any news since then?
None.
The only people who know where Shidou is are Andre Hayashi's group.
The only lead is Alexis.
Do everything you can to find the car he's in.
The transmitter was completely useless.
If there's no transmitter...
We have no choice. Simulate the satellite imagery.
Roger. Milo, pull up the satellite imagery.
Already doing it.
Who is it?
It's Shidou. Switch to a secure line.
Shidou?! Got it! Hold on!
Okay.
- I've been released. - Released?!
- Where are you now? - I'm on the move.
Come back right now!
I can't come back right now!
Why not?
I can't tell you the details. My daughter's... Miyu's life is at stake!
Tell my wife I'm okay.
Roger.
Isn't there anything else you can tell us?
Is there anything we can do here?
Sorry, I'm hanging up!
Shidou, hold on! Give me some more information...
What did the captain say?
I have a bad feeling about this...
Hey, be careful!
Over here.
He looks pale. Blood pressure's dropping.
- Prepare the ultrasound! - Got it!
Alexis...!
It's an emergency! He's in shock!
Internal bleeding is increasing!
You better not let him die.
Alexis... Alexis...!
Father...
Don't die.
Alexis, I've missed you.
Hey... open your eyes.
- He's in cardiac arrest! - Begin cardiac massage!
Leave me alone with my family.
Alexis...
I'm sorry...!
Seven years ago, he killed my mother and sisters,
and now Alexis too...!
I'll never forgive him...!
Shidou...! I'll never forgive you!
I'll kill you and Shidou too!
Stop, Andre. She's a valuable hostage.
Andre, stop it.
What's the matter?
I'm sorry.
I was wondering if my daughter had already arrived...
Not yet, I think. Please return to the conference room for now.
How's it going?
Sir...
She invited me to a room.
When?
Tonight, after this.
She's been saying all these fine things,
but in the end, she wants to be spoiled by a man.
I really don't like this.
I know that you're in love with Urara.
I know that you and Urara are having an affair.
Don't you feel uncomfortable with that?
Please tell me. Why are you making me do this?
All you have to do is tell me what she told you.
You want me to be a spy?
I'll give you a special stipend, of course.
Are you okay with this?
I don't feel good about it. But I can put up with it.
It's all for the good of this country.
Anyway, please strengthen the party leader's security.
More so than now?
Danger is imminent.
Chief, you have a minute? Sorry, it's urgent.
I don't know what's going to happen, so I'm asking for your assistance.
I'll tell them.
- What? - Look at this.
It's a special detention facility in Gotemba.
What about it?
It's been tampered with by someone.
Which means someone did it...
Who has access to the plans?
This is a special location,
so it was set up so that only the Foreign Affairs Inspectorate, CTU headquarters,
and a few people from the division could view it.
What about the Inspectorate?
I ordered and checked their access log,
but there's no evidence of access from the Foreign Affairs Inspectorate.
There was nothing suspicious about the log data.
That means...
It's possible that someone from CTU accessed and tampered with it.
Sumire?
No, she didn't have authorization to access it.
Check the past month of access logs from inside the department right away.
- Right away. - A second traitor...
So that's what it is...
Got it. I'll check.
Hey.
Yes. What is it?
Do something about Shidou's wife!
Soothe her properly. She thinks she's the center of the world.
I've got my hands full just dealing with headquarters and the Foreign Affairs Inspectorate.
Roger.
I'm counting on you.
Chief, I'm sorry...
I got it.
Yes.
Ms. Mizuishi...! I was waiting for you.
How's my husband? Did they let him go?
The captain is safe.
Thank goodness...!
Where is he now?
I... don't know that.
He did call,
but he didn't say anything except that he was safe.
Why?
He's probably still acting on the terrorists' orders.
That's strange. Why is he following their orders?
I think... it's probably to protect Miyu.
Huh...?
What does that mean? Miyu should be safe now...
Mrs. Shidou, please listen calmly.
The truth is,
Miyu was attacked on her way here in a police car...
It can't be...!
It seems that she's become a hostage again.
But it'll be okay. The captain is working to rescue her.
Stop... stop...!
I wasn't sure if I should tell you...
But I thought it would be better to discuss it properly.
I asked your father to do a job. A simple one.
Asked him... to do what?
When it's done, will you send me home?
I just got the message. You needed something urgent from me?
I'm on my way there right now.
Why?
On Andre Hayashi's orders.
They said he's taken your daughter hostage again...
Yes.
But the SP has told me to avoid meeting with you.
They said I'm in danger of being attacked.
I promise.
I would never harm you!
What do you mean by Andre's orders?
He wants to talk to you at 10:30.
He'll contact you by cell phone at that time.
In this situation,
with your daughter being held hostage, do you think I can trust you?
Please believe me!
I would never do anything to harm you!
Headquarters checked in.
And?
They want us to tell them as soon as we hear from the captain again.
Ma'am...
No one saw you?
No.
Sit down.
Are we all right on time?
Don't worry.
I need to talk to you.
Yes.
Akiyama.
Yes.
You're fired.
I have no choice but to dismiss you. Leave immediately.
The formalities will come later.
I can't work with you.
Why?
Don't play dumb! My husband told you to do it, didn't he?
Please forgive me.
I didn't mean to betray you.
But Youhei ordered me...
You could've just refused!
I know that.
But I can't disobey Youhei like that!
It's true that my husband is in a stronger position than you are.
But you'll listen to whatever he says because of the power dynamic.
That attitude is a disgrace for someone involved in politics.
Youhei has a merciless side,
so I just couldn't help it.
There's nothing more to my feelings!
I'm more merciless than him. Didn't you know?
But it's true that I like you!
If... If you could give me just one more chance...
Leave this hotel within 30 minutes.
Thank you for all your hard work thus far.
Ma'am...!
- Chief. - What?
I've figured out which staff members accessed the plans for the special facility.
Look.
Six people in all.
Five of them were staff checking the system.
Looking at the access conditions,
it was accessed on system maintenance dates and times​,
so I don't think they tampered with it.
We'll exclude those five.
The problem is the last one.
Who is it?
Division head Onitsuka...!
Could it be, the division head is a spy...?
It's not impossible.
Otherwise, there's no reason for him to have looked at this facility's plans four days ago.
But to think it was the division head...
It's just that the division head clearly has access.
- I'll notify headquarters immediately. - Wait.
First, you should cut off his access to classified information.
Got it. I'll try.
Milo, get back to work.
Where did you go?
- Downstairs. - Downstairs?
I got a room. I was there with Akiyama.
What?
You don't need to act surprised.
I asked him to leave.
He's fired.
It's a bad habit of yours.
You're convinced that every little thing is a conspiracy against you.
Is it an obsession?
That's all you want to say?
You made my staffer a spy!
Don't you think it's embarrassing to make him do something like a honeytrap?!
Sometimes playing clean isn't enough for a noble cause.
"Noble" is a word you have no right to utter!
No right?
You think you do?
We will soon have the whole government of this country in our hands.
Not you, we.
Do you think you got this far on your own?
It's because of me that you were able to come this far.
Are you done joking around?
I'm telling you. You need me.
What I need is some peace. In a world without you!
Pardon me. Party leader, Genba Shidou has arrived.
I'll be right there.
Pardon me.
Party leader...
Captain Shidou, I managed to get them to agree to let me meet with you,
- but I can't keep the SP away. - It doesn't matter​.
When Andre calls, I need you to listen to his demand.
What is Andre Hayashi's demand?
I was told that 20 billion yen of their assets have been frozen,
and he wants you to use your power
to lift the freeze and return them to him.
That's why you came here?
He told me to deal with you once you confirm they're unfrozen.
I've been pretending to agree in order to protect my daughter.
Right now, I just want to buy some time.
- But it's strange. - What is?
Victor Hayashi's assets should've been disposed of already.
Disposed of...?!
They're aware of that. There's probably another objective.
I'm asking you. Please answer it.
I'll try, but I'm not sure I can fool them.
This is Urara Asakura.
Party leader Asakura, have you met our friend Shidou?
I just met him.
What are your demands?
Party leader, look out! Everybody, get down!
Alright, it worked. They're all gone!
Your father is dead!
- Please wait! - What happened?!
It's dangerous, so stay inside until we can confirm the situation.
- You can't! Please go back! - Let go of me!
Where's Mom? Is she safe?!
Party leader...
Souma, check on the situation.
Yes.
Party leader... Party leader...!
Are you okay?
I'm okay...
Party leader, I'm picking you up.
Are you injured?
I'm all right. Thank you.
It's a small but deadly bomb.
Don't spread the word until we can get confirmation on the state of the party leader's injuries.
Roger.
Urara! Where's my wife?
Here. Calm down.
Are you hurt?
Don't shout.
Where are Yuuta and Hina?
Until we can confirm it's safe, we have them standing by in the hall's waiting room.
Yes, that's good.
Did you bring in the bomb?
Don't be hasty. Captain Shidou saved my life.
- Moreover, that's twice today. - Saved?
That's right. So don't make a fuss. I'm not even hurt.
I'm being asked if the party leader is okay.
Don't answer yet.
Party leader, I need a favor, for my daughter's sake.
But...
Don't tell them.
There's chaos on the scene, and the party leader's safety is unknown.
What's going on?
I want to make them think they've succeeded in assassinating the party leader.
Captain Shidou's daughter is being held hostage.
Are you going to pretend that this explosion killed Urara Asakura?
- My daughter is going to be killed. - So you're spreading a hoax?
It's also for the party leader's safety.
What should we do?
Keep the party leader out of the public eye and give out false information.
- Don't joke around! - I'm serious.
No. I won't let you do that.
Just for a little while, until things calm down. People's lives are at stake.
If you lie again, you'll completely lose the public's trust.
Do you know what day it is today?!
I know. It's just... if we don't do something quickly, it'll be too late.
It's okay, Mr. Shidou. I'll do as you say.
They must be worried, so go get my children.
Don't let them talk to anyone.
Yes ma'am.
- Could you assemble the SP? - Roger.
Who's in charge here?
His name is Magoroku Osada.
I want you to call him. I want to explain the situation.
Don't let anyone in or out of here.
I'm sorry.
It's okay. Will this help improve the situation?
I have no choice but to risk it.
Nanjou!
- Something's wrong with the terminal. - What is?
I can't see the party leader's schedule or classified information.
- I'll check it. - There's no time. Let me use yours.
Go ahead.
This is it. The party leader's schedule for tomorrow.
I want to verify her travel details. Fix my terminal.
Looks like he's noticed the access blockage. He's very interested in the party leader's schedule.
We have to restore it.
Monitor the connection. Send all the data to me.
Got it.
So we have to pretend that you're dead?
That's right.
But, look, I'm actually quite healthy.
I'm glad nothing happened to you, Mom.
But it was a close call, wasn't it?
I'm sorry I worried you.
Everyone, stop what you're doing!
Switch the monitor to the TV!
The sudden tragedy has caused great confusion on the scene.
According to information we've just received,
officials from the People's Party
have confirmed party leader Urara Asakura's death.
I repeat,
People's Party leader Urara Asakura's death
has been confirmed.
I repeat,
party leader Asakura's death has just been confirmed.
Father...
We still don't know what caused the explosion...
Hurry, let's deal with the daughter and leave.
Wait.
Make sure Shidou is dead too.
- Party leader, Mr. Osada is coming. - All right.
Excuse me, there's a call for captain Shidou.
From who?
A man. He said he'd talk to you directly...
Go ahead.
Hello?
So you're alive...
You have the devil's own luck.
I thought you died in the explosion...
The party leader is dead.
I know. It's a wonderful​ thing.
I should be the only target left.
Return my daughter. Exchange her for me.
Fine. Then come to Wangan-Kita dock 11A.
What guarantee is there you'll give her back?
None. But your daughter is innocent.
Dock 11A. I'll be there in 30 minutes!
Shidou, I'm sure you understand,
but if you bring your friends in any form,
your daughter is dead.
I know. I'll go alone!
I'm sorry for all the trouble I've caused you.
- You're going to go alone? - Yes.
It's dangerous!
My daughter's life is at stake.
Just be careful.
Thank you.
Captain, there's no way you can do this alone.
Please, let me send backup.
No. They'll kill Miyu.
At least tell me where you are.
If they find out, Miyu's life will be in danger!
But...
Itsuki... let me talk to Rikka.
Hold on.
It's the captain.
Dear!
Rikka, are you okay?
I'm fine. Where's Miyu?
I'm on my way to save her. She's okay.
You'll come back too, right?
Of course.
Thank goodness... I can't wait to see both your faces and feel relieved.
Just be patient a little longer.
You know...
I haven't been able to say this before, but I have something to tell you.
What is it?
We're going to have a new family member.
Huh... that means
a child... we're going to have a child?
What else could it mean?
Are you surprised?
Yeah, I am. I can't believe that's what you had to say...
What's the matter?
That's weird... I suddenly started crying.
Are you happy too?
Yeah, of course.
I'm so... so happy.
I'm glad...
Will you be okay?
Yeah. I'm sure we'll be able to live happily like before.
It's been a really long day.
I can't wait for the three of us to go home.
Yeah, let's go home together.
Rikka... I love you.
Me too.
I had three younger sisters.
All three were young and full of hope, just like you are now.
But now they're gone.
Do you know how my sisters died?
Your father killed them.
My dad would never kill an innocent person.
Unfortunately, it's the truth.
You're lying!
Your father says it was an accident.
But going all the way to a foreign country to plant a bomb...
how is that an accident?
Does your father talk about his job?
I'm sure.
Do you know what "overseas business trip" means?
He can't tell you.
Because he's a murderer.
No! I don't believe that!
No...
he's the villain.
Come in.
What did you need?
The party leader is alive.
The room was blown apart, but the party leader was unharmed.
But the news...
I haven't heard the details, but I'm guessing it's a security operation.
If we let them think she's dead, they can't go after her.
Don't tell anyone about this. Got it?
Understood.
What about the investigation now?
The Metropolitan Police and Public Security are investigating the situation.
Wait for and organize the information. We'll revise our strategy.
Roger.
Well, I'm sure everything will work out before long. Right?
Yes.
It's cold... Can I have some coffee?
Do what you want.
Hey, this is...
What?
Hot! It's hot...!
What happened?!
She ran away! The girl ran away!
She went that way!
In here...
It's displayed on the captain's desk.
Ms. Mizuishi...
A lot has happened, but I have no hard feelings towards you.
I'm very grateful to you now.
Because you saved my family's lives.
That's exaggerating it.
I just helped out a little.
Thanks to you, a new life was saved too.
Is that so?
It's a little embarrassing at my age, though...
Ah, I see. Congratulations.
Thank you.
I'm really happy for you.
I'll see you later.
We have to catch the daughter no matter what...
Don't worry.
Shidou doesn't know that his daughter escaped.
He's coming to his death.
There she is!
It's Luna.
Luna, why are you calling?
Urara Asakura is alive.
He deliberately circulated misinformation to save his daughter's life.
Are you sure?
I'm certain. I'm hanging up.
