My poor Shu.

[KANAE] Master Mirumo, I have news.

Master Shu has begun eating indiscriminately,

and he has lost control of his kagune.

If this goes on, I fear that...

[MIRUMO] That he'll come apart?

Yes, sir.

[MIRUMO yells]

[KANAE] Master Mirumo?

Please forgive me.

I lost my composure for a moment there.

Master Shu.

[KANAE sniffling]

[TSUKIYAMA] Hello. You're Kanae von Rosewald, yes?

I'm Shu Tsukiyama.

I heard that we'd taken on a new servant.

Welcome to the family. Have you settled in?

Uh... Yeah.

[TSUKIYAMA] Rosewald.

It means "rose forest," correct? Come, young man.

I can show you a forest of roses.

Look there. The duftwolke .

A noble German rose.

Kanae, we are distant brothers,

bound by blood.

So you need not cry alone.

Instead, live proudly and beautifully.

Such that you rival this rose.

That is the duty of all members of our family.

[ALIZA] Kanae!

Um. You should see this.

[TSUKIYAMA groaning, yelling]

Master Shu!

[gasps]

[growls]

Forgive me.

I have no choice.

Damn you.

What do you worthless fools take me for?

I am a gourmet.

[TSUKIYAMA] Bring me my epicurean delights.

Let my tongue and teeth wrestle with their quarry!

[TSUKIYAMA yells]

Use the inhibitor!

[SERVANTS gasp]

[SERVANT A] I'm sorry, sir.

[screams]

[TSUKIYAMA] Kanae. What are you doing in here?

I was tidying up your room, Master.

Apologies if I disturbed your sleep.

[TSUKIYAMA] Not at all.

Thank you.

[TSUKIYAMA] I'm so sorry you have to see me like this.

[gasps]

[KANAE] No. It's not your fault.

[TSUKIYAMA] You will watch over

the Tsukiyama family for me. Won't you?

[KANAE] Yes.

[KANAE sobbing]

[KANAE] Hass ! Hass ! Hass ! Hass !

[KANAE] Hass ! Hass ! Hass ! Hass ! Hass ! Hass !

[KANAE] Right now, I even hate... my own loyalty.

[CHIE] Hey.

[NUTCRACKER] I want to be pre... tty.

I want to be pretty.

I want to be pretty. I want--

[screams]

[TATARA] Impossible. Cochlea will not fall again.

How many times must you ask?

Hinami's abilities are indispensable to Aogiri.

[TATARA] Since when were you one of my advisors, Ayato?

I'll judge who's dispensable for myself.

[SEIDO cackles]

[AYATO] Something funny, Takizawa?

Oh, I just think the way ghouls care about each other

is kinda kooky, and kooky kinda sounds

like cookie, and cookies are good, don't'cha think?

--I sure love me a cookie. --[AYATO] What did you say?

[TATARA] Don't.

You and Fueguchi knew the risks when you decided to act alone.

We'll simply recruit a replacement for her.

Tatara...

...Yamori, the Bin brothers,

and all the other dead.

What is Aogiri to you?

Just a bunch of interchangeable pawns in your game?

[TATARA] That's right. And you are just a stray dog.

So know your place.

[SHIRAZU] So that's it.

[CHIGYO] Congratulations!

Completely natural chimera quinque's are very rare.

You hit the jackpot!

Shirazu? What's the matter?

Go ahead and open it.

[NUTCRACKER] I want to be pretty.

[SHIRAZU gasps]

[grunts]

[HAISE] Shirazu!

Hey, you're not sick, are you?

It's all right. It happens all the time.

This might help.

[HAISE] Lots of people get sick when they first see a quinque.

Especially when it's from a ghoul they killed.

That's... not...

I'm all right.

So, hey.

The bounty I got for taking out the Nutcracker.

It was 1.7 million.

You think that's a lot?

[HAISE] I don't really know.

[AYATO] If you're gonna blubber about it, then quit!

I'm sick of watchin' you cry.

[HINAMI chuckles]

You think this is funny?

A little bit. I'm sorry.

It's just that, when you get angry,

you look and act exactly like Touka.

[HINAMI] It calms me down.

[AYATO] Hinami.

[HAISE] Thank you for the tip.

Not at all.

Here. For you.

You're always so kind, Kaneki.

[KANEKI] I am me. And you are you.

[HINAMI] Whenever I was feeling down,

you'd always bring me books, same as you are now.

It's strange.

I have no idea how I'm supposed to treat you.

But I guess a lot of us are feeling that way now.

You had friends. You know that, right?

Everyone really liked you.

I'm sorry, but I am not the person you knew.

I'll come back soon.

[HAISE] Why am I pretending I'm on this ghoul's side?

When the time comes, she'll be--

Do I want to save her?

[HAISE] What am I thinking? Who am I?

Oh! How's it going?

I, uh, definitely wasn't trying to hide or anything.

[KIJIMA] I was wondering where you'd run off to. Furuta.

Oh, why hello there.

I'm Kijima, nice to meet you.

And you as well. I'm Sasaki.

[KIJIMA] Yes, I'm well aware.

[gasps]

I believe this Rose case will find us

working closely together. When the time comes,

I hope you'll take it easy on me so I don't fall behind.

Well, I'm afraid we must be going.

Do come along, Furuta.

It was nice to meet you.

[KANAE] Tell me, Mauschen.

What exactly is it that makes you feel

so partial to Master Shu?

Huh.

Well, he's fun to be around.

Wouldn't you agree? That's most of it.

[KANAE gasps]

[KANAE] You say you can help him.

If that's truly the case, then tell me how, Mauschen.

[CHIE] Here!

[INVESTIGATOR A] Are you Chie Hori?

[gasps]

You're suspected of assisting in ghoul predation.

We'd like to ask you a few questions.

[INVESTIGATORS] Uh--

[BOTH gasp]

[INVESTIGATOR B] Hold it!

[CHIE] I try to act brave, Tsukiyama,

but the idea of dying really terrifies me.

So if I can't avoid it,

at the very least, I don't want it to happen

until I feel like I've really lived. And because of that,

I'd like to spend as much time as I can enjoying my life.

[SHIRAZU] Hey, Saiko. Wake up, will ya?

[SAIKO] First you forced me out of bed,

then you made me skip breakfast.

[SHIRAZU] That's what happens when you sleep

until the last minute!

--[stomach growls] --[SAIKO groans]

[SHIRAZU] Oh, boy.

I'm Kori Ui, captain of S1. Greetings.

My squad will take the lead in this operation.

We look forward to working with you.

[UI] These are largely mass abductions,

and there's been no sign of predation at the scene.

This leads us to believe that Rose consists of

organized and well-trained ghouls.

Since they leave very little evidence behind,

we'll need to pull on a lot of threads

if we're to track them down.

That means coming up with effective methods

of investigating outside the box. And quickly.

[SHIRAZU] So he wants us to think outside the box, huh?

[MUTSUKI] And with practically no leads...

[IHEI] Excuse me.

You're the members of the Quinx Squad, is that right?

Uh. Yeah, that's right.

I'm the squad captain. What's up?

Hey, Captain. You seem a little tense.

Shut up, I'm totally relaxed!

He's the captain of love.

Well, uh. Hello there. My name is Hairu Ihei,

and I'm Special Investigator Ui's partner.

As it turns out, I'm pretty sure I'm the same age as all of you.

Seeing as we were all part of the same class,

I was just hoping that we might become friends.

We're the same age?

[URIE] Strange.

How did someone from our class advance so quickly?

We're leaving. Senior Investigator Ihei.

Ah. Yes, sir!

She's that high ranked?

She used to be part of Arima's Squad.

And she took part in the Owl Extermination Mission.

[URIE] She fought on the frontline of that battle?

This dimwitted girl?

[TAKEOMI] Investigator Ihei joined during Term 74.

So, in a sense, she's three years ahead of us.

[SHIRAZU] Huh. No wonder I haven't seen her before.

[thud]

[stomach growls]

[SAIKO] Captain, please. Don't let me starve.

I've heard there's a delicious bakery over there.

Let's try it out.

[SHIRAZU] Huh? C'mon, we were just about to start

canvassing the area.

[whines]

All right. Fine.

You did skip breakfast, after all.

Kuroiwa. Wanna join us?

Ah!

[SAIKO] Ooh! It smells like heaven.

[SHIRAZU] Whoa, those sure look tasty.

[YORIKO] Hello, welcome to--

Hey, Kuroiwa. How ya been?

A friend of yours?

Kosaka.

[YORIKO] Here. Hope you enjoy.

[SHIRAZU] I know I will. Man, this bread is just amazing.

Thank you very much. So, Kuroiwa,

you're a ghoul investigator now?

That's right.

[YORIKO] Guess you wanted to follow

in your father's footsteps?

[TAKEOMI] Yeah.

I wonder, has Kuroiwa always been the serious type?

Oh, yeah. He never says that much,

but he still has a really strong presence.

And he's always been an outstanding athlete.

And what about you? Like your job?

Yeah. Always wanted to work at a coffee shop,

but a bakery with coffee is just fine.

Oh, I feel that.

Uh-oh, we should prob'ly get goin' now.

Not that we have anything to report to our bosses, heh.

I plan to report that we located the whereabouts

of a delicious bakery.

[TAKEOMI] Kosaka. Thanks. It was great bread.

Uh...

Sure! No problem. Come anytime.

[FURUTA] Stupid boss. Who does he think he is?

[FURUTA] He can take his synergy 'n blow it out his ear.

[GROUP gasps]

[KIJIMA] Well done, Furuta,

it's like you were destined to play ghoul bait.

I'm not at all pleased to hear that, sir.

[chuckles] They may not leave any traces,

but we can still predict where they're likely to strike.

So this was a trap?

[FURA] A wall?

The detachable kind.

[MATSUMAE] We should leave.

Oh, I disagree.

[knocking]

[door opens]

Good evening, sir.

Is the shop open right now?

Of course. Come on in.

[HAISE] Amazing.

[UTA] Anything special you were looking for?

Uh. Yeah, there, is.

[HAISE] I'm here about this.

It was delivered to my place.

And it said it came from your shop, so...

I see. Well, I remember sending it out.

How strange. Perhaps I got the address wrong.

Oh, I guess that would explain it.

By the way.

Did you happen to send this book along with it?

Afraid not. Just the mask.

That sure is strange.

Well, thanks for your time.

Say, if you don't mind my asking.

Your eyes.

Oh, yes. These are just tattoos.

Ink is injected into the sclera via needle.

It does fade every few years, though.

Oh... yeah?

[HAISE] That sounds painful.

Oh. I guess I should return your mask to you, huh?

[UTA] No, that's all right. You keep it.

Uh?

After all, it was fate that you and I

should meet in this way.

[HAISE] Um, well then, thank you for the gift.

Hey.

[UTA] Yes?

You don't just buy and sell masks, do you?

You create them.

I do.

[MATSUMAE] That was quite the performance.

Well, in that case.

Ah! Heh. More tricks?

[IHEI giggles] I've dealt with ghouls like you before.

My hands should be nice and warmed up now.

[MATSUMAE] Who the hell is this girl?

[MATSUMAE] She can even dodge at this range?

[grunts]

Gotta be quick.

Are you all right?!

Yuma!

[KIJIMA] Excellent work diverting their focus.

I'm quite impressed, Investigator Ihei.

Huh?

Aw...

[MARUDE] So, S One is on the Rose case?

[MATSURI] Yes. Apparently, they've already caught one.

You don't say.

[MATSURI] I'm a special investigator too, now.

[MATSURI] I'd like to use everything I learned in Germany

to take down Aogiri Tree.

[MATSURI] Under our current chief,

we won't be able to beat them.

Not under our current chief.

[MARUDE] What you learned in Germany

was how to send good men to their deaths.

It seems I have failed you utterly, Master Mirumo.

Please forgive my incompetence.

It's fine. You did nothing wrong.

I'm just glad you're safe.

[sighs]

[ALIZA] Yes. But where is Yuma?

[MATSUMAE] Aliza...

I'm sorry.

[gasps]

[KANAE] We can be sure that the CCG has caught on

to what we're doing. Any future harvest attempts

are going to be extremely difficult.

But if we stop, then Master Shu will...

[MATSUMAE grunts]

[gasps] Does it hurt?

It's not that bad. A bit of rest, and I'll be fine.

Please don't let me keep you from your work, Kanae.

[gasps]

[CHIE] I put some pictures in this envelope.

I'm pretty sure he'd want to see them.

If you really wanna see Tsukiyama get better,

then you have to help him get what he wants.

[metal leg tapping]

[KIJIMA] I can tell just by looking at you.

You won't talk.

No matter how creative this interrogation may get,

you will be silent as a lamb.

With that in mind,

I think instead, I'd like to offer your friends a gift.

Tell me. What part should I give them first?

[CHIE] I need you to make me a promise, okay?

Promise that you'll honor Tsukiyama's wishes

above everything else. If you think you can do that,

then let him see the first photo.

[TSUKIYAMA] Kanae. This...

[gasps]

...is heartbreaking.

[clock ticking]

[HOGURO] Are they the ones we're after?

[TSUKIYAMA] There's no way my sweet Kaneki could ever forge...

[GRAVE ROBBER] Are you all right, Torso?

[KIJIMA] As you know, we captured your colleague...

[SHIKORAE] You're like a plump, little manju bun.

[CHIE] Okay, then. Here's what I'm gonna need you to do.

[URIE] This guy sure looks like a ghoul to me.

[SHIKORAE] Can't wait anymore... Hungry!

[HOGURO] Let's just go ahead and kill him, too!
