[lively music playing]
[automated voice]
Please take your parking ticket.
Follow the appropriate sign.
[airplane roars overhead]
[horn blares]
[lively music continues]
[machine bleeps]
- Got a delivery.
- Perfect, thank you.
- Thanks.
- There you go.
[music softens]
[man] Kono! Kono!
Over here, Kono!
Sorry I'm late. Stupid train stalled.
- Is the guest here?
- Yeah, standing by.
[lively music continues]
This way.
We'll get your makeup done on the move.
- I don't need any.
- No, we'll touch you up.
I don't need it. It's already tight
with the interview being cut down.
- Whoa!
- [postal worker] Oh, so sorry!
[man] Watch where you're going!
Now we'll take a break
and be right back with our weekly check-in
with our reporter, Kono.
THESE DAYS WITH KYOKO KONO
One minute to showtime!
There you are! Good morning.
- Sorry to keep you waiting.
- I'll take that!
[man breathes heavily]
- Just put some on.
- Sure.
- Put some on.
- [lively music continues]
[man] Okay, we really need to move.
Come on.
[music softens]
- [exhales slowly]
- [music fades]
[music resumes]
- [man] Back live in ten seconds!
- I've got a package.
[man] Eight, seven,
six, five, four, three…
OPEN IMMEDIATELY
Let's kick off our Friday segment,
bringing insights from experts
across a variety of fields,
alongside our colleague, Kyoko Kono.
[hosts, together]
It's "These Days with Kyoko Kono."
[theme music playing]
[music ends]
Good morning and welcome. I'm Kyoko Kono.
[woman] We'll be on this for 15 minutes.
[Kyoko] …you've been hearing the term
"biomass power generation" recently.
You might've been wondering,
"What is that?"
I'm speaking with someone
who can answer that question.
[man] Get the name ready.
He discovered a brand-new method
of biomass power generation.
Professor Emeritus Kyugo Sano
from Teito University.
- [man] Go to him.
- [Kyoko] We appreciate you joining us.
So what is biomass power generation
and why has it been getting
so much attention recently
in relation to the environment?
Well, the word "biomass" itself
was coined from combining the word "bio,"
meaning biological resources,
and of course "mass",
meaning the quantity of those resources.
We're talking about resources
that are organic,
from things like plants and animals.
Food waste from our own homes.
Sewage from city sewers can also be used.
The options for this waste are endless.
It can be burned directly as fuel
or converted into biomass
for power generation.
So it's a way of generating power
using the city's waste?
[Sano] Yes, that's exactly what it is.
It's very exciting because, until now,
disposing of all the city's waste costs
an enormous amount of time and money.
But if we were to start
using all this waste as fuel,
we could save up to 300 million yen
per year, per facility.
- It would be an incredible achievement.
- [low, sinister music playing]
[Sano] Now, it wouldn't be
without its own set of challenges.
To do it properly,
we'd need to establish a collection system
at a local government level,
and that would be for things
like food waste and other waste materials.
To be honest, it's far too big a task,
so my hope is to draw more attention to it
and eventually the nation at large
will recognize its potential.
So it seems like
there's still a long way to go then?
Is there a plan in place
for when the time comes?
Much of it is still being discussed.
Whoever wants to--
[choking and groaning]
P… Professor?
[man] What the hell is going on?
[gurgling and choking]
- What's happening?
- Is he choking?
[Sano grunts]
[woman screams]
[gasps]
Cut to commercial, now! Get off this!
[Sano gasping and choking]
[dramatic music playing]
[woman screams]
[sinister music playing]
[woman whimpering]
[screams]
[sinister music continues]
[dark, dramatic music playing]
HUMAN VAPOR
[man 1] Good morning!
- [man 2] Hey, you think you can take off…
- Hmm. There's eggshell in my soup.
[man 2] Do you know
how much of a shit show you caused me?
[man 1] I got into an accident on my bike.
I was in the hospital. I left a message.
I could barely walk all week. I'm sorry.
[man 2] Not my problem!
You're not getting paid this month.
[man 1] What the hell? That's not fair.
- I didn't plan to get hurt--
- Watch your mouth.
You were scheduled to work
and didn't show. That's the bottom line.
Maybe I'll just fire ya.
And you'll go back to your country
for being here illegally.
- How do ya like that?
- [man 3] Excuse me, sir.
Yeah, what?
You got a problem with the food?
No, sir. It's really good.
Good.
[man 3] But the thing is,
I'm not paying for it.
[man 2] Excuse me?
It sounds as though
you're not gonna pay this gentleman,
so there's no reason for me to pay either.
[curious music playing]
Palm?
Palm.
Palm!
- [shouts] Palm!
- Yes, sir?
[man 2] You know this guy?
No, I don't. Should I, sir?
This doesn't concern you.
You'd better stay outta my business.
You're not welcome in my restaurant.
I'm surprised you still have a restaurant.
[man 2] What?
Just by taking a quick look around,
you're violating labor laws,
and those ingredients back there
are in violation of food sanitation laws.
Not to mention
the tables you have outside.
Do you have a permit
to put those out there?
[man 2] You have no right
to talk to me like that!
Get outta here right now!
[man 4] Whoa, whoa.
[grunts]
[yells]
[man 2 grunting]
- Get off of me, you dick!
- [phone vibrating]
[grunting]
Uh, hey, you?
Do you mind, uh, giving me a hand?
- Uh, Palm? It's Palm, right?
- [phone vibrating]
- [man 2 grunting]
- Palm.
[phone ringing out]
Hey, Okamoto, it's me.
[Okamoto] Chief? What's going on?
- [chief] Where are you right now?
- Grabbing some lunch.
- I need you over here right away.
- What?
- You remember I'm on suspension, right?
- This came from upstairs.
I'm to reinstate you
to the First Investigation Division,
effective immediately.
Head to JNT right now.
- Uh, copy that.
- [music ends]
Hey, I just wanted to say thank you
for what you did in there.
[Okamoto] Ah.
You should probably find
somewhere more decent to work.
Yeah, well, no one…
wants to hire an outsider.
I wouldn't assume that.
But if that's your attitude,
nothing's ever gonna change for you.
Hmm.
Best of luck.
- [murmuring]
- [officer 1] Get back, please!
[reporter] Let's scrap that piece.
This is more important.
[tense string music droning]
[officer 2] You can't go in there.
Sir, you need to move.
- [Okamoto] No, it's okay.
- [chief] Okamoto.
Took you long enough.
I'm sorry, I got held up.
Your suspension only lasted three months.
Gotta say, I'm impressed.
[Okamoto] I am too.
You gonna brief me, or, uh…?
Yeah, well…
It's a bit of an odd one,
to say the least.
[Okamoto] Murder?
[camera clicking]
[Okamoto] What the hell?
What happened here?
Kyugo Sano,
Professor of Environmental Engineering,
was giving an interview
when this happened.
What's going on with the smoke?
Oh!
That wasn't all broadcast, was it?
I mean, it was a live interview, so…
Jesus Christ.
- Kyoko?
- Yeah, I thought you'd notice.
She was the one
interviewing Professor Sano
when it all happened.
[Okamoto sighs]
And where is she now?
[chief] Forensics just finished with her.
She's in the cafeteria, resting.
Uh-huh.
Do you wanna talk to her?
[chief] Just be careful what you say.
Best to not get too involved
with that reporter.
[melancholy music playing]
[officer] Morning, sir.
- Cops everywhere. This is nuts.
- My wife is freaking out.
- I wanna get home.
- Yeah.
Hi, there. I'm Okamoto
from the Metropolitan Police Department.
I was wondering if I could
have a few words with Ms. Kono?
[music becomes tense]
[sighs softly]
You okay?
Kenji…
You were reinstated.
[sighs] Mm-hmm.
So I guess
you're in charge of this case, aren't you?
[Okamoto] Yeah,
I guess you could say that, but…
as you're aware, it's pretty complex,
so it's all hands on deck.
Mm. Of course.
Before the incident,
was there anything unusual
about the Professor or…
No, nothing.
You saw the footage.
- [rapid footsteps approaching]
- [man] Kyoko!
It's the director.
He's holding an emergency meeting
for the chief reporters.
Got it, thanks.
I've told you all I know. May I go now?
Sure.
[Okamoto groans]
I'm guessing you heard that too?
Kono's a chief reporter now, apparently.
So she gets promoted,
and you get the shaft.
Sounds fair, huh?
[Okamoto exhales]
[Okamoto chuckles]
Let's get back to what we're here to do.
[detective] Where do we even start?
[newscaster] We interrupt this program
with breaking news.
At roughly 10 a.m. today, live on air,
Professor Emeritus Sano
of Teito University
suffered some sort of unexpected episode
and died.
- [man 1] Director!
- [director] Hey!
[indistinct chattering]
Hey, good morning.
Apparently, this package arrived
just before we went to air.
[intriguing music playing]
Are you gonna open it?
[director] I don't know.
Who the hell knows what's in there?
[panicked shouting]
- Kyoko, be careful.
- [woman] What if it's a bomb?
[Kyoko scoffs]
- [Kyoko] That's anticlimactic.
- Let me see.
Oh. There's a QR code.
That's weird, but okay,
I guess we should probably scan it, right?
Before we go scanning random QR codes
that could've been sent from terrorists,
shouldn't we talk to the authorities?
Who knows what this is?
Or we just find out right now?
[intriguing music continues]
We won't know either way
until we see what it is.
Once we have an idea,
we'll make the call, okay?
I got it. I'll put it on the screen.
[man 2] Uh…
[music fades out]
[monotone] Hello, everyone.
This message is in regards to the murder
that transpired this morning
during JNT's "I Like Mornings" segment.
I orchestrated it.
[tense music playing]
It was 27 years go that I met
the Professor.
That's a very long time.
I can only assume
the question that's on all your minds is
why did I decide to kill Professor Sano
and who exactly my next target could be.
He's planning to do more.
[man on video] This video
that you're all watching right now
has been sent out
to every single major news company
across Tokyo.
Why did I do this?
Because…
tomorrow, I would like to hold
a press conference.
I will discuss the method of the murder,
the reason I did it,
and… what I am planning to do next.
The press conference
will take place at Bunko Ramen.
I hope to see you there.
4 p.m. sharp.
One last thing.
I will only respond
to questions and comments
from the media companies
that report this video as their top story.
The choice is yours.
Bye now.
I'll… see you tomorrow.
[director] Hmm…
So he sent this video
to every major media outlet?
Looks like this guy wasn't kidding.
Sakura TV and Ashino Newspaper
both got the video too.
Are we sure this is even legit?
What if he's just looking for attention?
Is it possible that some random guy
saw it go down on TV
and is screwing with us?
Not possible. Look at the time code.
This video was uploaded
just after midnight this morning.
That's before the murder occurred.
There's a good chance
this guy was the one behind all this.
Yeah, but that said,
are we just gonna stand here
and do whatever
this potential psycho wants, really?
Maru TV is about to go live
with the video!
ETN too, it's their top story.
Let's broadcast it.
[sighs heavily]
Sir, it's up to you.
Professor Sano's murder happened
on our live broadcast this morning
in front of the whole country.
Isn't it our duty to find out why?
[newscaster] Breaking news
regarding the murder
of Professor Kyugo Sano this morning,
that happened during a live interview
on this network.
A man claims to be the person responsible.
In the video, the man claims
he was the one who orchestrated
the seemingly supernatural attack…
- [woman 1] This is nuts.
- [man 1] Did you see this?
- [woman 2] The guy died live on air.
- [man 2] What's happening?
- [man 3] Why would they even air this?
- [student 1] Kana! Kana!
- [student 2] Hello.
- [student 1] Did you see this?
It happened on the Friday segment
with that reporter.
[student 2] Play it again.
[man] Regarding the murder
that happened this morning…
WHO IS THE MASTERMIND
BEHIND THE INCIDENT?
[man] …I planned the whole thing
from the start.
Okay, I'm joking, but on today's episode,
I'll be breaking down
what the hell happened
and who this mysterious psycho is
that can make people float!
That's one hell of a magic trick!
Let's recap.
A terrifying man releases a video
claiming he can pop people like balloons!
Pop! Like that!
He says he'll explain the truth tomorrow
in a press conference he's hosting
at four at a ramen shop!
[intriguing music playing]
[sighs]
That's just the tip of the iceberg.
There's so much more to this story
than meets the eye, folks.
[woman] Give us a hint.
We all wanna know.
[man] Ah. Curious, are you?
I don't blame ya. Well…
Other online channels are convinced
that just by talking about this,
they'll go viral.
I don't feel that way.
Why not, you ask?
Why do I not live and die
by the number of subscribers I have?
'Cause that would be boring.
[pained yelling]
[intriguing music continues]
FUJITA AND KAHO'S TERROR ZONE
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!
[man 1] Where physical evidence
is concerned,
no fingerprints other than that
of the postal worker were found.
We're also working as fast as we can
to identify fingerprints, footprints,
and all other materials
found at the scene.
Next, we have a report on this video
that's spreading like wildfire
across all news outlets and social media.
Yes, sir. The video is
one minute and 34 seconds long.
We're working around the clock
to identify this man,
but so far, we don't have any matches.
Early on in the video,
he claims to have met Professor Sano
27 years ago.
We've been speaking with some
of Sano's associates from back then.
However, nothing actionable
has come up yet.
So basically,
you know as much now
as you did before we got this tape?
That's enough.
Let's move on to things we do know.
Yes.
We do have a report on the deceased.
[detective] After examination
of the remains recovered at the scene,
it's estimated that the explosion
most likely started
in Professor Sano's lungs.
According to the findings,
the lungs expanded first
and then compressed the deceased's neck,
then exploded
with considerable force from the inside.
But hold on now. You can't be serious.
Are you suggesting he swallowed a bomb
without even knowing it?
There were no signs
of physical explosives.
There were, however,
thermal injuries on the inner lung tissue,
more consistent with chemical burns
than those typically caused
by high temperatures.
Are you… saying
that chemicals were involved here?
More precise analysis is ongoing.
But it does seem to have been caused
by some unknown substance.
[man 2] And when can we expect the results
of this "more precise analysis"?
The people want an answer!
All right, let's all calm down.
We need to stay on point.
The governor's holding a press conference
on this tomorrow evening.
We want as much information as possible.
Have we identified the account
that posted the video?
About that, sir… It routes
through multiple overseas servers.
We don't believe it can be traced.
What about this ramen restaurant?
Bunko Ramen is an average ramen restaurant
on Nanahiro Street.
There doesn't seem to be
anything noteworthy about it.
It's small, but the area is popular.
[man 3] I want it cornered off
so that it's not a zoo when this guy
holds his press conference tomorrow.
[man 4] Yes, sir. We'll get right on it.
- All right, now then--
- [Kenji] Excuse me, sir.
When the governor
holds his press conference,
do you think it would be prudent
to maybe warn the people
about the potential risk
of a chemical terrorist attack?
After all,
the safety of the people is our priority.
Noted. I'll tell the governor.
That's all, thank you.
[officer] Attention!
Salute the superintendent general!
[indistinct chattering]
Okamoto.
Got a sec?
[supt. general groans]
[gentle music playing]
Here.
I know you always forget your pack.
What, did you quit?
[Kenji] It's bad for your health.
Oh, come on now.
You're starting to sound like my doctor.
Come on, take it.
[Kenji inhales]
[exhales deeply]
[exhales]
Tell me, you dating anyone new these days?
What? [scoffs] You seriously asking?
Um…
There's somebody
Chieko wants you to meet, but, uh…
What? Are you off the market?
You know how the game is played, Kenji.
You wanna get ahead in this job,
you need a good wife.
That's what my father said,
before the end.
[supt. general] Smart man.
Hey, weren't you the one
who introduced my parents?
Yeah, guilty.
[Kenji] And didn't my mother
always hate for you that?
- She sure did.
- [Kenji laughs]
Complained about how he never came home.
- [Kenji sniffs]
- Yeah.
Being a good cop rarely goes hand in hand
with being a good husband and father.
- That's true.
- Mm-hmm.
So you…
look like you've gained a few pounds.
Those buttons are straining.
Oh…
- You think so?
- Sorry.
Better not be, with the smoothies
I'm drinking every morning.
[laughs] Oh God, smoothies?
Look, I know this is one hell of a case,
but I really think you can crack it.
I need you to.
And if there's anything I can do,
let me know.
Will do, thanks.
Can I ask you, though…
why this case?
You knew I was suspended, right?
Well, that woman,
the one who was there when Sano died…
You know, the reporter?
- Kyoko Kono.
- She's the reason why.
That woman put you through the wringer,
didn't she?
So now… you have the opportunity
to prove you want nothing to do with her.
That you're over the whole damn thing.
You're welcome.
Okay.
[sighs]
[exhales]
This is, um… Sorry, what was it?
My name is Kyoko Kono. I'm from JNT.
Right, yes.
So how can I help you?
It's a request from the PR office. They're
looking to do a piece on what we do.
5 YEARS AGO
- It's for Police 24 Hours or something.
- Uh-huh.
You're doing a stakeout, right?
Go along with him
and feel free to ask whatever you want.
- Hold on, Chief--
- [Kyoko] I appreciate you taking the time.
[Kenji] Uh…
Okay.
Well, then…
I guess we should go. [clears throat]
[soft music playing]
[soft music continues]
I SAW THE NEWS.
WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON?
GET IN TOUCH WHEN YOU CAN?
THERE'S A POSSIBILITY
OF CHEMICAL TERRORISM
DON'T COME TO THE SITE TOMORROW!
IT'S DANGEROUS
[music fades out]
[airplane whirring overhead]

TOKYO METROPOLIS
[man] Good afternoon,
my fellow citizens of Tokyo.
I'm sure that, like myself,
you were all shocked
by the events that took place yesterday,
but please rest assured,
the situation is under complete control.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government has
full confidence in our police department.
Their top priority is your safety.
Right now, they are dedicating
all their time and resources
to getting to the bottom
of what transpired yesterday.
The police department felt it appropriate
to warn you all of the possibility
of a chemical terrorist attack.
It is for that reason
that we have requested
the immediate assistance
of the riot police
at the location
of the suspect's press conference.
My plea to the media,
keep away from the location
of the press conference.
- Do not go near this location.
- [climactic music playing]
- We cannot guarantee your safety.
- [car horn beeps]
- Regarding the man in the video…
- [horn beeps]
[sighs] Really doesn't seem like anyone's
listening to Governor Miura now, does it?
- [horn beeps]
- [press conference continues on radio]
[detective] Get outta the way, lady,
or you'll get my bumper in your ass.
- [officer 1] Car coming. Make room.
- [officer 2] Move! Step back.
[detective chuckles]
It was a joke, calm down.
- [officer 3] Outta the way!
- [officer 4] Ma'am, get back! Move!
[officer 5] Stand aside, right there.
Car coming through, make way!
- Out of their way!
- [horn beeps]
[officer 6] Please move now!
If you don't move, we'll detain you.
[climactic music continues]
[helicopter whirring overhead]
[music ends]
[indistinct chattering outside]
[mysterious music playing]
[sniffs]
- Check that out.
- [detective] Got it.
[mysterious music continues]
[sighs]
[indistinct chattering outside]
[soft music playing]
[radio DJ] Good evening, night owls…
[Kenji] To be honest,
these stakeouts are a waste of time,
so get some sleep if you're tired.
I'm fine, thanks.
I, uh…
have insomnia anyway.
So…
it's not like I would be able to sleep.
I'm used to staying up late.
I heard something interesting.
When you can't sleep,
just put your hand
on your chest like this.
You'll feel the rhythm of your heartbeat
and it calms you down.
- Is that actually a thing?
- Yeah.
I'm serious. Go on, try it.
[DJ continues talking on radio]
Close your eyes too.
[Kyoko breathes slowly]
["Ellie My Love" by Southern All Stars

See?
Don't you feel relaxed?
I don't know…
[chuckles]
Um… yeah.
Worth a shot.

What do you think of it?

- [indistinct chattering]
- [horns beeping]
[woman] Sorry, yeah, just through here.
Excuse me, sorry. Thank you.
[sighs]
[detective] Just did a sweep,
nothing unusual.
[Kenji] Okay.
Do you think he's really gonna show?
Almost time, it's 3:50.
[Kyoko inhales sharply]
Another ten minutes.
All we can do is wait.
[suspenseful music playing]
Hey, it's Nishiyama from Social Affairs.
We're about ready to broadcast.
Okay. Yeah, please do.
[detective] He's 25 minutes late now.
I think the bastard was bluffing.
Well, would you just show up
to this shit show if you were him?
You're basically asking to get arrested.
This is all part of some master plan.
Must be.
[owner] How long is this gonna take, huh?
I'm closing my business for this?!
What the hell is going on?
Whoever this asshole is,
he's not coming, hate to break it to you!
I better be compensated
for the business I'm losing!
- Jesus.
- [owner] How long are we waiting?
- You think this guy's just gonna roll in…
- The owner's having a total freak out.
- Tatsuya, wait here.
- [owner] This is crazy!
- Where you going?
- [woman] Hey.
[Tatsuya] Whoa, hold on.
You can't just run off like that.
Dammit!
- Such bullshit!
- [Kyoko] Uh…
Hey, excuse me.
Oh…
- I know you, don't I?
- Oh, um, yes.
I'm Kyoko Kono.
You might know me from JNT.
Oh yeah, you were there
when, um, that person exploded.
- That was you!
- Yeah, that was me.
Thank you.
Even after something traumatic like that,
we're supposed to get back out here
as though it were nothing.
It's gotta be a tough job.
My job's pretty hard too, you know?
You should see all the crap
I have to deal with here!
Mondays… Mondays, I do a deep clean.
I should've done that last night, huh?
Yeah, listen…
Have you always run the business here?
Huh?
- [woman 1] Is this guy even coming?
- [woman 2] He fooled us. Bastard.
- [woman 3] Huh?
- [woman 4] Let's get outta here.
- [man] I left work early for this.
- [woman 5] Let's go.

KYOKO KONO
1 MESSAGE
[sighs]
BUNKO RAMEN USED TO BE
IN A DIFFERENT LOCATION
[suspenseful music building]
Let's go.
- [Tatsuya] Okay, this is it.
- [suspenseful music continues]
[Tatsuya] Hey, hold up.
Kyoko!
Hang on a second!
BUNKO RAMEN
Jesus.
- [music becomes unsettling]
- [rat squeaks]
[mysterious music playing]
[Tatsuya] Could you please wait a second?
You can't just walk in somewhere
without asking…
Wow!
[mysterious music intensifies]
[newscaster] The very reporter
who witnessed the murder
is about to go live with the man
claiming to be the perpetrator.
[Kyoko] I'm currently sitting
for an exclusive interview
with the man claiming to be
behind yesterday's on-air murder.
[mysterious music continues]
[music fades]
[Kyoko] Thank you for agreeing to this.
Could you introduce yourself?
[monotone] I am someone who's been
the victim of terrible suffering.
So,
was Professor Sano
the cause of this suffering?
Did you do this out of revenge?
Yes.
Professor Sano was murdered
due to the many crimes he committed.
Could you tell us what he did?
What were these alleged crimes, exactly?
White.
Center.
Sorry? White Center?
Could you tell us what that is?
You wouldn't know about it.
It was a very long time ago.
The people who were involved
with White Center
must be remembering
the crimes they committed
and panicking as they watch this.
And who are these people
you're talking about?
[man] They are the ones
who control this society.
No matter what I say here and now
or how much proof I have,
they'll use their power
to cover up their crimes.
JNT REPORTER'S EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW
MAN WHO SAYS HE KILLED PROF. SANO
This is my solemn vow
to all those guilty souls watching this.
I'm going to kill you all
one by one.
But what if they apologize?
Admit to their wrongdoings,
make amends in some way.
Maybe you could still reconcile this
without more bloodshed.
[man] It's possible,
but I highly doubt
these people would ever apologize.
