Original subtitles

The AV-98, aka the Ingram.

6.02 tons. 8.02 metres high.

SCB powered. SCLM drive system.

Armed with a 37 millimetre revolver cannon and stun baton.

Designed specifically for the police to make an impression on the community...

to deter criminals and safeguard the public.

This is the Patrol Labour.

You must not let go of your dreams

And never turn your gaze away

Yet even still love may cloud up and fade away

And even though you comforted your love

When he was feeling down

Sadness was still weighing down his heavy heart

Hang on tight to your dreams - they're weapons in your arsenal

You'll find that you can get through anything at all

So never cry - you know I shall always be watching over you

What I love about you is your strong sense of fairness

So never cry - you know I shall always be right there by your side

And so now you can face your future fearlessly

Reunion

Upper right arm actuators 1 and 2...

...completely shot.

Lumbar vertebrae rotators...

...also destroyed.

The entire hip assembly needs to be replaced.

It must go back to the factory.

Yes, there's not much choice when it's this bad.

Make a full checklist. We'll send it out first thing tomorrow.

Yes sir! Start the electrical system diagnostic.

Roger.

Oh well...

Ever since Division 2 was formed, I've pulled a lot of overtime.

My deepest apologies.

That was quite a pounding.

That's the least of it.

Unit 2 we can fix. I'm more worried about the human damage.

They're both in the hospital?

And a shooting! How did it come to this?

We shan't know until Kumagami wakes up.

Can you believe it, Mr. Sakaki?

The Labour that wrecked Unit 2 actually took off and flew.

Astonishing. Labours were created for construction work.

A flying Labour is completely pointless.

Completely.

...but it wasn't a plane, so it was using sheer brute thrust.

It couldn't have had much fuel.

Flying probably used ALL its fuel!

I'll bet it can't move at all right now!

Exactly! It may have escaped, but it couldn't have gone far!

Don't you agree, Izumi?

Huh? Oh, I wouldn't know.

From the middle of Tokyo Bay, to the middle of Chiba Prefecture.

You've pinpointed their secret base?

I don't know about a secret base...

That's a huge area! What good is that? Well?!

It looks like you miss Shinohara, Ota.

What do you mean?

Our fighting strength is down 50%.

With all due respect, Sir, that's not true!

I'll work as hard as Shinohara and Kumagami combined!

Your spirit is certainly commendable, Ota...

Unfortunately, your machine was sent back to the factory.

It'll be gone for quite a while.

Excuse me, Lieutenant.

Lieutenant Nagumo's at the hospital. I'm waiting for her call.

Izumi, I know you're worried about your partner, but you still have work to do.

Yes, Sir!

So get moving! We need some tea out here.

Yes, Sir!

And let it steep a while. I like it strong.

Yes, Sir!

Izumi's having a tough time.

She'll have to handle both Ota's job and her own.

You'll make it, Hiromi?

Miss Izumi, over here.

What's up with Kana?

They'll show it again.

Breaking News

A strange flying object crashed in the mountains of Chiba.

It may be connected to the Labour dogfight at Tokyo's Haruumi.

Finish the breakdown, then begin loading.

Should we leave the wings?

They've been expended. Just leave them.

Here, Bud.

A covering!

Call it a disguise.

Everyone, drive as safely as possible.

Keep to the speed limit. Dump truck, monitor the police wavelengths.

Pull over! Pull over for a bit!

All trucks, stop.

Don't leave the cab.

We don't have any problem with our rig, do we?

Are you from the construction site south of here?

Yes.

We had a report of a plane crash. Have you seen anything?

Yes, the whole sky lit up like Judgement Day!

I thought we were dead!

What direction?

About three kilometres that way.

I know nothing else about it.

Hold it!

Your side mirror is crooked.

It must have brushed against a tree.

Can I go now?

Yes. Drive safely.

The crash went quite well, and it looks like we fooled them.

It should be smooth sailing from here on.

Chief Utsumi covers every contingency.

He's also a master showman.

We just heard from Chiba. They've retrieved the Griffon.

Excellent! Then we can prepare for another try.

You'll try again?

Of course!

I must take care of that irritating Unit 1!

This is our chance, Kurosaki!

I can't sleep.

Oh? That's wonderful.

Us? We're getting by.

I'm sorry about your casualties, but there is one silver lining.

What's that?

We've proved that Shinohara's Economy Ingram isn't up to Patlabor duty.

That's true.

Well, you've had a long day. Get some rest.

Izumi, are you still up?

I couldn't sleep.

Did the Labour from Haruumi crash in Chiba?

We don't know yet.

I can't relax until I know for sure.

I do have some news that may help.

Kumagami's operation was a success. Her progress is good.

Thank goodness.

And there's no reason for Shinohara to stay at the hospital.

Now get some sleep.

Yes, Sir!

After all, we don't know when you'll be called back to duty.

Izumi! The news! The news! Get up, hurry!

There's a story on TV! Hurry!

...reported seeing a brilliant flash of light.

The area is covered with machine fragments and spilled fuel.

Even through the thick rain, you can smell the burning oil.

Experts are comparing the wings to...

That's it! I'm positive!

Right? Right?

It's a fiery grave.

Ah! I was looking forward to a rematch!

It must have self-destructed.

It is now 6:40. Next, the weather.

Something's not right.

Public Welfare Hospital

Mr. Shinohara, this isn't a police infirmary.

Dressing that way worries the other patients.

I'm sorry.

Which way to Officer Kumagami's room?

He's about 175 cm tall, and he parts his hair on the right.

Squarish chin, glasses, and he looks like he's always laughing.

That's quite a skill.

What?

His talent for portraits.

Hey, give that back!

Yes, that's him.

Yes?

How are you, Sgt. Kumagami?

Hey, you don't look so bad.

What do you mean, "so bad"?

I'm going back, so I came to say goodbye.

Are you all right?

Don't worry about me, take care of yourself.

Aren't they moving you to the police infirmary today?

Yes, but I'd rather stay here... it's closer to the station.

Everyone at work wishes you well ,so get well soon.

Thank you.

May we continue, now?

Yes.

What's wrong?

Who's this?

Huh? Hey!

Richard Wong. He was in the car when Sgt. Kumagami was shot.

Really? I thought it was Utsumi. It looks just like him.

Who's that?

We'd best talk to you before you head home.

Utsumi? We employ three men of that name.

He looks like this.

Section Chief Utsumi, in Planning Division 77?

One moment, please.

What interest do the police have in our business?

It's just a routine check.

Mr. Utsumi is in Tsuchiura this week.

What kind of check?

Someone resembling Mr. Utsumi was spotted at a crime scene.

That's preposterous. When?

Yesterday.

I'm afraid our Utsumi has been in Tsuchiura all this time.

Sorry. Must be a case of mistaken identity.

Yes, absolutely.

Could we have a picture of Mr. Utsumi for our records?

Chief Utsumi, it's the main office.

Okay.

Hello, Utsumi speaking.

Oh, Division Manager!

No, I wouldn't worry about it.

Yesterday WAS a failure, but we're almost ready for another try.

Come on now, what do you mean, "project suspended"?

I don't know the details, but the police know who you are.

Stay away from Tokyo for a while.

Visit South America, or anywhere else.

Wait, Boss...

Asuma!

Hi!

You're feeling okay?

I'm not too bad - a couple of cracked ribs.

Nothing that needs a hospital.

Don't overexert yourself. You should go lie down.

Lying down won't help me rest.

How's Kumagami?

She'll be out for a month.

That means a month of Ota out of control.

Where's Noa?

Well, she had insomnia...

Insomnia?

Come on. Stand up!

She hasn't slept at all?

She couldn't get any sleep. She was too worried about you.

Come on, you're kidding!

Believe it, Lover Boy!

Oh, I'm so sorry!

Wait, time out.

What's wrong? First you want practice, and now you want rest.

Izumi doesn't know you're here yet, does she?

Sometimes she's not too observant.

All right.

You ready?

Please.

Take your best shot.

What are they doing?

Getting motivated.

You need to pull yourself together!

What's wrong?

I'm so useless.

Did you suddenly turn useless in the last few days?

I was completely useless yesterday.

I couldn't help you or Kumagami...

...or Asuma.

I wasn't expecting your help.

Besides, that whole mess was Shinohara's fault.

That idiot!

Asuma, remember your ribs!

I couldn't do a thing.

And when I heard the Black Labour had crashed, I was so relieved!

I'm pathetic.

Step one is to recognise all your flaws.

He could have put that a lot better!

That's the only way Ota knows how to put it.

Did that help wake you up?

It's time for lunch. Let's go.

Thank you, Ota.

I won't help you beat yourself up anymore.

Don't you think they're a little more motivated now?

And one more thing:

Cry on Shinohara's shoulder from now on.

It makes me uncomfortable!

What's the matter with him?

He's blushing.

H-hey!

Asuma!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Noa! Wait! Argh!

I'm afraid he gave us no choice.

So we came this far only to give up?

Don't look at me like that! I'm at least as angry as you are!

Sorry, Sir. You didn't look like it.

Break down the Griffon and load it onto the carriers.

Yes, Sir!

Chief, Red Rock in Tokyo has news on the Division Manager.

He's calling in Schaft Security Systems.

SSS? But that means...

He's being thorough.

I'll bet he's been in contact with America, ever since Ogasawara.

Mr. Utsumi!

I just heard! We're not giving up, are we?

Company orders. I have no choice.

You sound like a salary man.

I AM a salary man.

I don't like it! The Griffon's in perfect shape!

It isn't "game over" yet!

That's true. If we still have the Griffon, it isn't "game over".

Kurosaki, where is SSS right now?

I told Red Rock and Green River to keep their eyes open.

Mr. Sakaki, thanks for letting us use the hangar.

You didn't have much choice. The rain soaked the fields.

Hi, I'm back.

SSS? What's that?

Schaft Security Systems.

They're a private security agency...

but it would be more accurate to call them a mercenary army.

They frequently use Labours.

They DO combat Labour crime, but it's usually quite bloody.

Trying to out-do the military?

Just the sort of people who'd start a private war inside a city.

I've had my eye on them for a while.

Do you think they're connected to the Labour show incident?

Probably.

I'd like to ride along with your team for a few days.

Anytime.

Sgt. Kanuka Clancy, of the New York Police Department...

is temporarily assuming command of Ingram Unit 1.

I hope you're up to it.

Yes sir!

Just hold me tightly, Midnight Blue

If I can make it to the bus stop by midnight

Midnight Blue

I know I can do it, If only just once

Pulled into my dream I find that I wake up

Drenched in sweat and feeling lonely

I turn off the TV I've been listening to

Tomorrow I shall spend the whole day

In the city of my dreams, amidst the old dust

I want to feel the main street beneath my feet soon

I plan to always look on the brighter side

Keep my chin up, look to the future

After all, there's only one path I can travel

Just hold me tightly, Midnight Blue

If I can make it to the bus stop by midnight

Midnight Blue

I know I can do it, If only just once

Midnight Blue

If I can make it to the bus stop by midnight

Midnight Blue

I know I can do it, If only just once

This story is fiction... but in 10 years, who knows?

Schaft Security Systems is on the move!

Hey Noa!

What?

What are you doing eating at a time like this?!

Once it starts, we're bound for a head-on collision with them...

so I'll fuel up while I can.

Utsumi, SSS, and Division 2 have a rendezvous on the battlefield.

Night turns to day as the first barrage is fired off!
