A.D. Police: To Protect and Serve (1999) s01e03 Episode Script
Bargaining
A boomer is an artificial human, developed by the Genom Corporation.
After the devastation of the great earthquake, Tokyo, which had lost all resemblance to a major metropolis, was reborn as Genom City, thanks to the boomers.
However, at the same time, it also brought about runaway accidents and violent crimes by mutated boomers.
The organization created to deal with these crimes is called the Advanced Police, the AD Police.
Sequence N outbreak! AD Police, move out! Tomorrow is the weekend Tonight, I am tempted by your magic again, Fly Night Tripper Mercilessly beating this love, dizzying ecstasy Sweet temptation eating at my brain Are you an angel or are you a devil? Robot-like glass doll You disappear as soon as I hold you Distorted space in the clockwork Wonderful and fearless, who are you? Tomorrow is the weekend Mr.
Liam.
Sid's factory was seized by the AD.
The site is in the 13th District D, at Iwatani Motors.
Factory Manager Sid Phillips and his cohorts had considerable firepower, and the police had no choice but to retaliate.
There have been many fatalities and injuries.
Now, the illicitly constructed boomers are being confiscated.
Is this the last of them? Kenji? Hey, Kenji! Working alone is dangerous, partner! What are they? Well, this guy's scared of them.
This way! Is everyone all right? There are still some people from the first group missing.
Damn it! For a bunch of pros to get caught by some stupid trap like that! Sarge, Kenji and Hans aren't here! Those two Now then, I guess the time has come for us to bond.
Liam Liam, that bastard, he's trying to get rid of me along with the factory.
An ambulance is coming through.
Please vacate the streets.
An ambulance is coming through.
Please vacate the streets.
The fire has now spread to the neighboring buildings.
The one that exploded was a factory for illicitly constructed boomers.
The AD Police had entered the building and were in the middle of confiscating the boomers when it suddenly exploded.
Now, as a result of this explosion, there have been a number of injuries and fatalities among the AD Police.
You are really very persistent, aren't you? Today I felt like I might die.
And for some reason, I just thought of you.
And is that your magnificent pick-up technique? I don't pretend that I could pick up any woman with such poor technique.
I just always tell the truth.
However, it's your fault, you know.
The fact that you would continue to rebuff my advances, not even knowing a thing about me, right? There's no need to know anything about you.
Good night.
Liam Fletcher, that guy's the leader of the Backers.
Going by the confession of the man we arrested yesterday, Sid Phillips, this guy blew up the factory in order to hide the evidence.
I guess twelve people died in the fire yesterday.
What about him? He'll show up at the next sale.
The buyer is Yozo Tazaki, the CEO of the trading company Tazaki Corporation.
Tazaki Corporation? They do most of their business exporting industrial-use boomers.
On the one hand, Genom, and on the other hand, dealing with the Backers.
Japanese are really good at business.
There is no proof that Tazaki is caught up in all this.
If we investigate him cautiously, this is our best chance to get an idea of just what these Backers are.
Don't forget that.
Revenge for Paul.
Your secretary really helped me the other day, Liam.
I told him to help you courteously.
But it appears that my workers did a rather rough job of things.
It does seem that they were rather overzealous.
But that factory had some rather unpleasant facets as well.
More importantly, Mr.
Tazaki, you are being watched by the AD.
It appears Sid told all and became a turncoat.
And? What do you want to do? Wait until after the factory has been demolished.
For our part, we want the sale to go through.
At this rate, I won't be able to show my face to Mason.
If you are okay with it, then I have no problems.
Shall I have you deliver the goods tonight? That's fine, but what about the AD? Leave them to me.
Closing the investigation? Why? Tazaki is on to our shadowing.
He lodged a complaint.
His company is a legitimate business that has received Genom's approval.
We can't touch them.
We could arrest Tazaki, even Liam.
Even you know that we have no authority to investigate a legitimate business, right? As long as we don't have any hard evidence, we can't do anything.
I understand, I understand, but If we withdraw now, I can't even begin to account for the team members who sacrificed their lives to catch the Backers.
At any rate, this is how things stand.
Would you tell me something? Is this some sort of bad joke? Or is this the way things are here? Our methods are different from the normal police.
I didn't think either the normal police or the AD Police should let criminals go free.
You, are you okay with this? It's the way things always are.
So, you're just going to quietly retreat? That's not like you.
I can't go around disobeying orders, can l? Oh, you're one to talk.
In other words, we AD Police are just going to let the Backers run free.
And even more lives will be sacrificed for them.
It's like us killing them.
We are not on the side of justice.

It's like us killing them.
We are not on the side of justice.
What are you thinking about? You never, never tell anyone what you are really thinking, but I know.
Not on the side of justice? That might be true, but I see.
You just used your certification papers from Genom, is that it? In order for them to investigate a legitimate company, it would require various bothersome paperwork.
So, for a while, they won't be able to do anything.
Really, it's amazing that you were able to assemble so many in such a short time period.
Well, this is business after all.
I will probably be coming back to you.
And I will be more than happy to do anything in my power to help you.
So, if there is proof, no one can complain.
And now then, Mr.
Tazaki, I will take my leave.
Don't move, you AD! The AD?! Since I've delivered the boomers as promised, my part in this is finished.
The rest you can take care of as you see fit.
Well, then.
Hey, Liam, wait! Mason does not forgive mistakes.
Damn.
Kenji! What are you doing? What about you? I thought you weren't on the side of justice? Shut up! Aside from that, how did you get here? It's called old-fashioned investigating! Just what did you do? Anyway, let's go! They can fuse with living organisms? Well, that's just silly.
Liam! Wait! Hurry up and get out of the way.
I'm going to destroy its core! Damn reckless partner! Well, wanna give it a try? Partner? Let's do it.
There's no mistake, right? Hans contacted the main station.
Okay, let's go! This doesn't look good.
Kenji Those two! Tazaki was killed, and we weren't able to get any information on the Backers, and nothing has turned up to connect him to the Backers.
In the end, we lose, right? Don't you think that just stopping the sale is good enough? Do you really think that? See? You think I'm persistent, right? I think I am too.
But I'm the type of guy who likes to live his life honestly.
I felt like I was going to die again, and I thought of your face again.
That's all.
And if you don't have dinner with me, I don't think simply dying will be enough to satisfy me.
Even in the darkness there is a light That's what you taught me Turning around, like times long past The days we spent start to disappear Not knowing what is important Not seeing what's ahead, standing still The shadow in the mirror is the phantom of deceit The white proof that we can't touch No matter what happens, I will never let you go Let's start the endless journey It's Kyoko Miyano.
Even though my boyfriend Kenji is in the AD Police, I always thought that boomer crimes had nothing to do with my life.
But it just so happens that, on the day of my important graduation concert, I get caught up in a horrible boomer crime.
The concert time gets closer, and in this little murder drama, hostages go one after another.
What should I do? Next AD Police: "The Promise" Just how much worse can things get?
