The Orbital Children (2022) s01e04 Episode Script
Seven's Pattern
1
Twenty seconds to impact!
The number of fragments keeps increasing.
The five of them
are heading to the moored shuttle.
The shuttle area is decompressing.
Maintain pressure until they evacuate!
-What happened to the shuttle?
-The radar is blank. I can't tell.
We'll run out of air in here soon too.
Abandon the control room.
All crew, move to the sub-control room!
4 HOURS, 42 MINUTES, 30 SECONDS
AFTER ACCIDEN
The comet fragments are still going around
at the same altitude.
This is probably an AI comet.
An AI comet?
Yeah.
An unmanned vehicle is sent to the comet
and sprays out a micro machine
that self-propagates
and automatically creates
a membrane-like computer and engine.
The AI does everything,
so it's cheaper than lunar water.
-Mayor?
-What?
This is bad.
The second orbit of the comet group
is coming!
Hold on!
5 HOURS, 21 MINUTES, 10 SECONDS
AFTER ACCIDEN
Any damage?
Looks like we still have air.
Mayor.
What is that?
Touya, are you safe?
Uncle!
Touya, you have to survive long enough
for the UN2 rescue ship to come.
We will.
Just a little longer, guys.
We're going to solve the problem.
It's what you said, but…
EPISODE 4: SEVEN'S PATTERN
We have to open the bulkheads above
to be able to get on the UN2 rescue ship.
Connected.
Okay.
With this, we can always communicate.
I'm not sure if it will work well or not,
but I have an idea.
Dakky.
Even if Twelve can't do it,
we might be able to reboot
with a separate system.
A while back, I hacked
a security hole in the bird drones.
When on earth did you do that?
Align.
All right, get in formation.
Forward.
You in front, more to the right.
Hacking is a major violation of the rules.
Shall I stop the reboot then?
No. Carry on.
All right. It looks like the lower system
can be restored right away.
If I fiddle with this,
communications will be restored.
The birds were drones?
Communications have been restored.
What a terrifying nephew you have.
Touya,
are you able to access the bulkhead?
No, we can't get in.
Some things work and some don't.
How are they different?
I don't know,
but the things that aren't working
are those that incorporate quantum AI.
The net's back!
Mina, everybody!
I'm still alive.
What? "Everybody around the world
is relaying the Mina broadcast"?
I'm world-famous?
IN THE RANKING
Thirty million followers?
Yay! One-third of my goal.
I've conquered worldwide.
Next is universe-wide.
FOLLOWERS
Another failure.
-I'm sorry.
-If you make a mistake, you can try again.
Yeah.
But a mistake in space could be deadly,
so I'll be careful.
True. But the most dangerous thing
isn't making a mistake.
Giving up after making a mistake
is the most dangerous.
Right.
Today's Hero Interview.
This is the famous Touya,
universally renowned.
Touya, how do you feel?
Shut up.
There you have it.
Universally nasty as always.
By the way, Touya,
you call your partner drone Dakky,
but what is its formal name?
Darkness Killer.
Did you just laugh?
No way. It's a cool name.
That's why its nickname is Dakky,
isn't it?
Go away!
-You're in the way, Earther!
-You're in the way, Earther!
If you open up this pathway--
What are you eating?
-Shut up, Earther!
-Shut up, Earther!
Favorite word?
-Drop dead, Earther!
-Drop dead, Earther!
What are you doing?
-You're an Earther too, you know!
-Just go away!
Don't bother Touya!
Fine, whatever.
-I got loads of usable footage.
-A meteorite should be dropped on Earth
and should reduce
Earth's population by one-third.
-Drop dead, Earther!
-I'll gather all of these and up they go.
SHOCKING! TOUYA'S TRUE COLORS
There. The details
of our current time line are displaying.
SIGNAL 22%
UN2?
The UN2 signal's coming in.
The UN2 rescue ship
is currently approaching.
It will rendezvous with the Anshin
in one hour.
-It's UN2. UN2 has come.
-Yes!
Yes, we're saved!
Just what you'd expect
of humanity's representatives.
They didn't forget about us.
-All right.
-What's up?
The timelines have converged.
It won't be long now.
Text-only communication
has been established.
What's happening with the comet?
The fragments from the comet
that collided with the Anshin
have scattered around a wide area
and are burning up and evaporating
in the atmosphere.
The danger is subsiding.
However, this says that there is
a risk of contact with the Anshin
in the next few hours.
An exact match
with the Anshin's orbital plane?
How is such a coincidence possible?
There's more.
However, aside from the other things
that entered low orbit,
Alpha, the large, main body
is about to collide with Earth again.
COMET 88%
NUCLEAR ATTACK 87%
A nuclear attack?
UN2 will soon be carrying out
a second nuclear strike on Alpha.
If that happens, the EMP will destroy the
electrical equipment on the rescue ship
and won't carry out the rescue.
You have to escape before that happens.
Everything-- both reacceleration
and opening the bulkhead--
all hinges upon rebooting Twelve.
I'm sorry to ask this of you civilians,
but help us.
Touya, would you be able
to reboot Twelve with Dakky
using that security hole from before?
That would be difficult
with Dakky's current cognition level.
What about your drone?
Bright was not made to be used
for those kinds of rules violations.
Then there is one way.
Unlock up to the C limiter
of Dakky's cognitive restrictions.
No way!
Taiyou, I'm counting on you.
I will take responsibility.
We don't know what will happen.
-Bright.
-Aye. Copy.
Do it, Dakky.
All right. Good job, Dakky.
I never thought I would end up
having a hand in such illegal activity.
It booted up.
I am Deegle's advanced general purpose AI,
Twelve.
Twelve was made for the prosperity
and development of human--
-Twelve, shut up.
-Shutting up.
Twelve, open the blockage
in the B Cylinder.
Secure oxygen
for the passage through here.
Initializing air pressure modification
for the passage from B Cylinder.
Touya, the bulkhead is opening.
MINA 81%
-Mina?
-It has started hitting individuals.
CLOSE 92%
Hey! Where are you going?
This is another chance
to increase my followers!
What are you doing, you LoserTuber?
Nasa, what is that app?
Oh, well…
Is that the Seven Poem prophecy
you've always talked about?
Yes.
Actually, it's an app that analyzes the
poem and displays future possibilities.
Does this mean that Mina
is going to get trapped over there?
EROSION 84%
-Oh, no.
-Wait.
But--
Mina's reaching the top.
Why is it closing?
Twelve, what's wrong? Don't close it.
-Why did you stop me?
-It would disturb the timeline.
If we told them, the future
that Seven predicted would change.
Nasa.
Can you see what's happening inside?
No.
I can't access the surveillance camera.
I found her.
I'm going to make this into a story
and increase my followers.
FAKE?
Mina, everybody!
Twelve, open the bulkhead.
I've lost the control function
for each of the panels.
What does that mean?
Report the location of function loss.
Most of it is around the A Cylinder.
What is this?
Nasa, hasn't it predicted a way
to open the bulkhead?
This doesn't really work like that.
The "S" Pattern?
The "S" Pattern is growing.
That pattern--
It's the same
as the surface of the comet that crashed.
The area in the pattern
matches the area we've lost control of.
Is that the cause?
It's the micro machine
that forms the quantum AI of the comet.
Has it mistaken the station
for the comet it's attached to?
That is unknown. However,
it is possible that this abnormal growth
means that some kind of modification
has been made.
Everything that's happened has been
predicted frighteningly accurately.
TWELVE 97%
Twelve?
Is this some kind of hacking?
That is unclear,
but it is indiscriminately hacking
nearby devices and trying to assimilate--
-Twelve?
-What happened, Twelve?
My apologies.
In 13 minutes, 11 seconds, I will die.
I am currently being exposed to erosion.
There is one way to stop the erosion.
We'll help. What do we need to do?
Give me permission to further unlock
the cognitive limiters of Touya's drone.
What?
-GOSH
-SHE'S TRAPPED
In terms of intelligence, only that AI
is capable of correcting the situation.
-I went inside, and the door just closed.
-My sister is making such a mess!
-It's not my fault.
-I'm so, so--
Papa-- I mean, Dad.
Yeah? I'm kind of busy right now.
Don't tell me. Tell Mina.
It still won't open.
I'm stuck.
MOTHER
Mom?
What? Why are you calling out of the blue?
I'm in the middle of a broadcast.
I'm hanging up.
What's this?
Air pressure adjustment function
has just shut down.
This is bad.
"Wa-nin"?
WILL BE SUFFOCATED
Does anyone know what this means?
-NO OXYGEN
-THIS IS MOM
"Death by suffocation."
What?
I got it on!
Now I can breathe the oxygen
in the space suit.
What?
Yikes!
This is out of oxygen too!
I used it all up in the EVA from before!
Taiyou, please give me permission.
The authority of a UN2 staff member
is required.
But--
This is bad! I'm really going to die now!
FATHER
Now it's Dad?
Didn't I tell you not to call
in the middle of a broadcast?
-NO GOOD
-STORY?
I'll die?
No, I won't die.
It's a story. I'm hanging up.
-THIS IS MINA'S FATHER
-MINA'S MOTHER (FOR REAL)
My parents are texting.
In front of the entire world--
My family is disgracing itself.
CHECK KASUMIGAURA OFFICE HP!
"John Doe claimed responsibility"?
KASUMIGAURA OFFICE
Taiyou, Mina is going to die. Hurry!
Personally, mixing black into white
is absolutely unforgivable.
What are you talking about?
I'll permit the unlocking of the limiters.
However,
before that, I'm going to frame-fuse
Dakky and Bright together.
What?
I'll allow it on the condition
that it be managed by Bright.
Wait a minute!
I'll never forgive
mixing white into black.
Execute.
Frame fusion!
I'll be right back.
"Incorporation"?
Frame fusion!
What is frame fusion?
-Incorporation.
-Incorporation.
SAVE HER
Hurry! Hurry up and save me!
My follower count has grown. I'm so happy.
Save me!
IT IS FUTILE TO RESIS
THE PASSAGE OF TIME
Resistance is futile.
Dark, you will be reassigned
under my supervision.
We have incorporated into a single frame.
We are, so to speak, Dark-Bright.
Dark has already been unlocked
up to the C limiter.
If the E limiter is unlocked,
we should achieve the intelligence
to suppress the erosion.
I permit it.
E limiter unlocked.
Dark's cognitive level
is currently surging.
Now, Dark,
show us what you are capable of.
All right. It looks like
we should be able to eliminate it.
Something's here!
How come it's eroding all the way inside?
Look! It's coming in here too.
In this state,
it won't have enough capacity.
Unlock a higher level
of cognitive restrictions.
I hate doing things like this.
We need to get up to the G limiter.
Permission granted.
It seems the obstacle can be eliminated.
Accessing the bulkhead.
I thought I was a goner.
I am so sorry for the trouble
my older sister has caused.
Taiyou. Touya.
You guys saved my life.
I'll give you
5,000 Mina handshake coupons.
Not necessary.
Oh, yeah.
I should introduce
Touya and everybody to my followers.
SHOCKING! TOUYA'S TRUE COLORS
Oops, forgot.
I should delete that video.
What?
The Internet's out.
Oh, no. I can't delete it.
All right, just one more bulkhead.
Twelve, hurry up.
Twelve, what's wrong?
Everyone, time's up.
I will die now.
-Farewell.
-Wait, Twelve.
I hope I was able
to meet the expectations all of you--
Twelve!
Touya,
why isn't the last bulkhead opening?
Twelve
is dead.
The squiggly wigglies are spreading again.
The pattern is evolving.
Stopping it here
will be the best I can do.
It's the UN2.
The UN2 ship has come.
We're saved!
The UN2 rescue ship has come, everybody.
What a relief! UN2!
UN2!
ATTACK VESSEL 94%
An attack vessel?
Why aren't the comms back?
I don't know, but text-only communication
is just barely possible.
I'll read it.
"Because this station
could potentially trigger a pandemic,
we are sealing it off."
That's not a rescue ship.
It's an attack vessel.
UN2. No.
Why are they doing this? Because
I unlocked the cognitive restrictions?
A pandemic?
-Like a disease?
-It's probably that.
They're afraid that it will spread
outside of the station.
But this is just the time
to ride this big wave.
-UN2, Please!
-Here's the recap up to this point.
A comet hit us. We are trapped.
The guy has lost it!
A creepy pattern is eroding the place,
and UN2 is not going to save us!
In a single word, it is chaos!
On the scene and signing off.
UN2 is the one blocking the comms?
Do they intend to abandon the children?
They're saying the pattern
on the Anshin's surface
matches the forbidden "S" Pattern.
"S" Pattern? What does that mean?
The "S" Pattern
is a dangerous quantum circuit
that transcended human technology
and self-propagates.
Self-propagates? Impossible.
There's an even bigger one over there.
DELICIOUS COMET WATER
The system that restores the comet
was a product designed by Seven
right before it was euthanized.
It was made with the "S" Pattern.
It's finally begun.
The final chapter of the poem.
I'll read it.
"Since the Lunatic Seven incident,
all 'S' Patterns were supposed
to have been destroyed.
However, part of it
somehow eluded surveillance."
Yes, Konoha's
and the others' implants too.
"Now all existing 'S' Patterns
around the world
are on the comet and on this station.
S PATTERN - JOHN DOE
This is too unnatural.
This is part of
an intentional act of terrorism.
We believe that a collaborator
is inside the Anshin.
Earlier,
someone from John Doe made a statement
claiming responsibility for the offense."
A statement from John Doe?
Oh, that thing from before
that I read by chance.
"The White House, Shenzhen,
the Kremlin, Kasumigaura and the like,
all of their home pages
are being rewritten."
They're confusing
Kasumigaura and Kasumigaseki again.
One third of humankind--
I've heard that somewhere.
But how could they do something
so terrible?
It's the main body of the comet.
They plan on hitting Earth with the comet.
In one hour, the planet will take
a direct hit from the comet.
This is the mass of the main body,
as analyzed by the UN2.
If something like this hits Earth--
It coincides perfectly with Seven's plan
to exterminate 36.79% of humanity.
We've determined
what type of attack vessel it is.
It's compatible with nuclear weapons.
They think that we're part of John Doe.
OPTICAL
Is the UN2 planning a nuclear strike
on us as well?
I won't allow it.
Think.
The pattern's intelligence
is also surging.
Unlock the J limiter.
Permission granted.
It's still not enough.
Granted. Full permissions granted.
Taiyou, with your authority,
I can only unlock up to the L limiter.
Then grant permission up to the L limiter.
It seems the erosion has stopped.
Somehow the quantum circuit was completed,
so it seems the growth phase has ended.
I've got to think
even more outside the box.
The comet is just 20,000 kilometers away.
If a nuclear explosion occurs here,
the rescue ship that's supposed to come
before it enters the atmosphere
will also be completely inoperable due to
the electromagnetic waves from the EMPs.
If we don't stop UN2 from
a nuclear strike, we'll all be Buddhas.
There's one way to stop them.
Eliminate the threat of the comet.
How?
Stop the collision with Earth.
And how will we do that?
Convince it not to?
That's right.
The water company would have been prepared
to correct a deviation from orbit.
I see. Getting the materials now.
Can we communicate with the comet
using these materials?
"Yes," Dark says.
If this is John Doe terrorism,
they surely hacked the comet's
orbit-correcting function.
I see. If I can re-hack the main body
with Dark-Bright,
we can change the orbit.
But all comm functions are unusable.
Why?
All UN2-approved communication
devices can be shut down remotely.
Damn it! Isn't there any way?
There has to be a communication device
that isn't UN2-approved.
CAN BE USED
Kibo's ICS antenna.
What is it?
The antenna that's attached
to the Japanese Module Kibo.
It was purchased from ISS
for tourism purposes.
But that's an old antique
that was about to be discarded.
There's no way it could reach a distance
of 20,000 km with this jamming signal.
Would it make it
if it was 60 meters ahead?
It seems Dark has thought of something.
Please connect me to the ICS antenna.
Touya, here's a cable.
What in the world
is that drone planning to do?
I don't know either.
According to Dark,
the "S" Pattern and comet
can communicate with each other
inside of the jamming signal
since they're using quantum communication.
Question! What is quantum communication?
Completely confidential communication tech
established by unknown Seven technology.
It breaks the Shannon limit
with its encryption protocol
utilizing entanglement--
Got it. That's enough.
Anyhow, that means it can communicate
by mysterious means, right?
We will interrupt this communication
circuit with the ICS antenna.
It seems Dark has invented technology
that can run a quantum communication
on radio waves.
Dark has already used this circuit
and connected with the comet once.
Dark has connected with the comet.
However,
although we can connect,
it is using an unknown barrier.
An unknown barrier?
The comet's intelligence
has grown beyond prediction.
It has reached 80% of Seven's.
Are you okay?
I heard this voice before
when I was much younger.
Dark says that this barrier
is the same as Seven's.
It is impregnable.
The same as Seven's?
I remember.
The "S" in the "S" Pattern
is the "S" in Seven.
Seven itself
was made from the "S" Pattern.
Then this comet…
is Seven itself resurrected?
"Seven shall become a comet
bearing blessings and be resurrected."
COME
Just like the poem says.
Dakky, anything yet?
No. Hacking isn't working.
That's crazy. Then how on earth did
John Doe manage to change the orbit?
The comet's AI is thinking autonomously
and determining the trajectory.
It is using the data from John Doe
and thinking independently.
As a result,
it selected collision with the Earth.
So what are we supposed to do?
We will talk to it and persuade it.
Something's happening
on the comet's surface.
The comet's intelligence…
has now surpassed Seven's.
-It surpassed…
-Seven?
It's Lunatic. This is the end.
There's no way we can persuade
a collapsed intelligence.
Communications are still connected.
Identifying language system.
Language identified.
Learning grammar.
A response has come.
We can speak,
though not in a human language.
We did it.
We can talk to a Lunatic AI.
Then perhaps to the implants as well.
Time's up.
They just launched a nuclear weapon
at the comet.
The Anshin and much of the Earth
are going to take a serious EMP hit.
When that happens,
there will be no hope of a rescue.
-How many minutes left?
-Twenty seconds.
Twenty seconds?
Damn it! There's no time to evacuate.
The comet has detected the nuclear strike
and is doing something.
Ten seconds.
It's okay.
You can see that, can't you, Konoha?
Nasa.
Nasa, are you--
Three,
two,
one.
What happened?
I'm not dead yet?
-What about the EMP?
-I can't see it.
Electrical components operating normally.
Did the nuclear strike fail?
This is an optical telescope image.
According to Dark, the comet hacked
the nuclear weapon and shut it down.
It hacked UN2's nuclear weapon?
There's no way it can do that.
It seems the comet received
a hacking method from somebody.
What?
The comet is in great shape.
Now Dark is using
11th dimension wave function
to have a heated debate
with the comet's AI.
It is too advanced
for me to understand, but--
"Many humans will die
if you collide with Earth.
I don't want you to kill the humans."
Do you think it's possible to persuade it
to change its trajectory?
It seems that the comet is not able
to comprehend the concept of humans.
Interestingly,
it has a proper concept of humanity.
But it seems to believe that "humanity"
and "humans" are separate creatures.
Separate creatures?
While the comet puts the highest priority
on humanity,
"humans" outside of that frame
are not given priority.
Thus the comet thought that 36.79%
of the unimportant humans
should be exterminated.
Seven probably does as well.
Do you foresee us persuading it?
Dark is currently in the process,
but isn't quite getting the point across.
However, the comet is incredibly curious.
Dark guesses that if we gave it
a chance to learn about humans,
it may be possible to persuade it
to change its trajectory.
Okay, carry on.
Aye. Copy.
I believe that we will succeed
in persuading it soon--
What are you doing, Nasa?
Your attention, everyone.
To tell the truth,
I'm the one who taught it about
the security hole in the nuclear weapon.
What?
Yes, and we must have the comet
stay the course and collide.
This is stated in the Seven Poem.
Nasa, what are you saying?
Ta-da! Now I shall reveal my true self.
I am a member of John Doe.
You were the terrorist?
It's not terrorism. This is a revolution.
This is to save humanity.
Ouch!

Twenty seconds to impact!
The number of fragments keeps increasing.
The five of them
are heading to the moored shuttle.
The shuttle area is decompressing.
Maintain pressure until they evacuate!
-What happened to the shuttle?
-The radar is blank. I can't tell.
We'll run out of air in here soon too.
Abandon the control room.
All crew, move to the sub-control room!
4 HOURS, 42 MINUTES, 30 SECONDS
AFTER ACCIDEN
The comet fragments are still going around
at the same altitude.
This is probably an AI comet.
An AI comet?
Yeah.
An unmanned vehicle is sent to the comet
and sprays out a micro machine
that self-propagates
and automatically creates
a membrane-like computer and engine.
The AI does everything,
so it's cheaper than lunar water.
-Mayor?
-What?
This is bad.
The second orbit of the comet group
is coming!
Hold on!
5 HOURS, 21 MINUTES, 10 SECONDS
AFTER ACCIDEN
Any damage?
Looks like we still have air.
Mayor.
What is that?
Touya, are you safe?
Uncle!
Touya, you have to survive long enough
for the UN2 rescue ship to come.
We will.
Just a little longer, guys.
We're going to solve the problem.
It's what you said, but…
EPISODE 4: SEVEN'S PATTERN
We have to open the bulkheads above
to be able to get on the UN2 rescue ship.
Connected.
Okay.
With this, we can always communicate.
I'm not sure if it will work well or not,
but I have an idea.
Dakky.
Even if Twelve can't do it,
we might be able to reboot
with a separate system.
A while back, I hacked
a security hole in the bird drones.
When on earth did you do that?
Align.
All right, get in formation.
Forward.
You in front, more to the right.
Hacking is a major violation of the rules.
Shall I stop the reboot then?
No. Carry on.
All right. It looks like the lower system
can be restored right away.
If I fiddle with this,
communications will be restored.
The birds were drones?
Communications have been restored.
What a terrifying nephew you have.
Touya,
are you able to access the bulkhead?
No, we can't get in.
Some things work and some don't.
How are they different?
I don't know,
but the things that aren't working
are those that incorporate quantum AI.
The net's back!
Mina, everybody!
I'm still alive.
What? "Everybody around the world
is relaying the Mina broadcast"?
I'm world-famous?

-I'm sorry.
-If you make a mistake, you can try again.
Yeah.
But a mistake in space could be deadly,

True. But the most dangerous thing
isn't making a mistake.
Giving up after making a mistake
is the most dangerous.
Right.
Today's Hero Interview.
This is the famous Touya,

Universally nasty as always.

SHOCKING! TOUYA'S TRUE COLORS
There. The details

The UN2 signal's coming in.
The UN2 rescue ship
is currently approaching.
It will rendezvous with the Anshin

However, aside from the other things
that entered low orbit,
Alpha, the large, main body
is about to collide with Earth again.
COMET 88%
NUCLEAR ATTACK 87%
A nuclear attack?
UN2 will soon be carrying out
a second nuclear strike on Alpha.
If that happens, the EMP will destroy the
electrical equipment on the rescue ship
and won't carry out the rescue.
You have to escape before that happens.
Everything-- both reacceleration
and opening the bulkhead--
all hinges upon rebooting Twelve.
I'm sorry to ask this of you civilians,
but help us.
Touya, would you be able
to reboot Twelve with Dakky
using that security hole from before?
That would be difficult
with Dakky's current cognition level.
What about your drone?
Bright was not made to be used
for those kinds of rules violations.
Then there is one way.
Unlock up to the C limiter
of Dakky's cognitive restrictions.
No way!
Taiyou, I'm counting on you.
I will take responsibility.
We don't know what will happen.
-Bright.
-Aye. Copy.
Do it, Dakky.
All right. Good job, Dakky.
I never thought I would end up
having a hand in such illegal activity.
It booted up.
I am Deegle's advanced general purpose AI,
Twelve.
Twelve was made for the prosperity
and development of human--
-Twelve, shut up.
-Shutting up.
Twelve, open the blockage
in the B Cylinder.
Secure oxygen
for the passage through here.
Initializing air pressure modification
for the passage from B Cylinder.
Touya, the bulkhead is opening.
MINA 81%
-Mina?
-It has started hitting individuals.
CLOSE 92%
Hey! Where are you going?
This is another chance
to increase my followers!
What are you doing, you LoserTuber?
Nasa, what is that app?
Oh, well…
Is that the Seven Poem prophecy
you've always talked about?
Yes.
Actually, it's an app that analyzes the
poem and displays future possibilities.
Does this mean that Mina
is going to get trapped over there?
EROSION 84%
-Oh, no.
-Wait.
But--
Mina's reaching the top.
Why is it closing?
Twelve, what's wrong? Don't close it.
-Why did you stop me?
-It would disturb the timeline.
If we told them, the future
that Seven predicted would change.
Nasa.
Can you see what's happening inside?
No.
I can't access the surveillance camera.
I found her.
I'm going to make this into a story
and increase my followers.
FAKE?
Mina, everybody!
Twelve, open the bulkhead.
I've lost the control function
for each of the panels.
What does that mean?
Report the location of function loss.
Most of it is around the A Cylinder.
What is this?
Nasa, hasn't it predicted a way
to open the bulkhead?
This doesn't really work like that.
The "S" Pattern?
The "S" Pattern is growing.
That pattern--
It's the same
as the surface of the comet that crashed.
The area in the pattern
matches the area we've lost control of.
Is that the cause?
It's the micro machine
that forms the quantum AI of the comet.
Has it mistaken the station
for the comet it's attached to?
That is unknown. However,
it is possible that this abnormal growth
means that some kind of modification
has been made.
Everything that's happened has been
predicted frighteningly accurately.
TWELVE 97%
Twelve?
Is this some kind of hacking?
That is unclear,
but it is indiscriminately hacking
nearby devices and trying to assimilate--
-Twelve?
-What happened, Twelve?
My apologies.
In 13 minutes, 11 seconds, I will die.
I am currently being exposed to erosion.
There is one way to stop the erosion.
We'll help. What do we need to do?
Give me permission to further unlock
the cognitive limiters of Touya's drone.
What?
-GOSH
-SHE'S TRAPPED
In terms of intelligence, only that AI
is capable of correcting the situation.
-I went inside, and the door just closed.
-My sister is making such a mess!
-It's not my fault.
-I'm so, so--
Papa-- I mean, Dad.
Yeah? I'm kind of busy right now.
Don't tell me. Tell Mina.
It still won't open.
I'm stuck.
MOTHER
Mom?
What? Why are you calling out of the blue?
I'm in the middle of a broadcast.
I'm hanging up.
What's this?
Air pressure adjustment function
has just shut down.
This is bad.
"Wa-nin"?
WILL BE SUFFOCATED
Does anyone know what this means?
-NO OXYGEN
-THIS IS MOM
"Death by suffocation."
What?
I got it on!
Now I can breathe the oxygen
in the space suit.
What?
Yikes!
This is out of oxygen too!
I used it all up in the EVA from before!
Taiyou, please give me permission.
The authority of a UN2 staff member
is required.
But--
This is bad! I'm really going to die now!
FATHER
Now it's Dad?
Didn't I tell you not to call
in the middle of a broadcast?
-NO GOOD
-STORY?
I'll die?
No, I won't die.
It's a story. I'm hanging up.
-THIS IS MINA'S FATHER
-MINA'S MOTHER (FOR REAL)
My parents are texting.
In front of the entire world--
My family is disgracing itself.
CHECK KASUMIGAURA OFFICE HP!
"John Doe claimed responsibility"?
KASUMIGAURA OFFICE
Taiyou, Mina is going to die. Hurry!
Personally, mixing black into white
is absolutely unforgivable.
What are you talking about?
I'll permit the unlocking of the limiters.
However,
before that, I'm going to frame-fuse
Dakky and Bright together.
What?
I'll allow it on the condition
that it be managed by Bright.
Wait a minute!
I'll never forgive
mixing white into black.
Execute.
Frame fusion!
I'll be right back.
"Incorporation"?
Frame fusion!
What is frame fusion?
-Incorporation.
-Incorporation.
SAVE HER
Hurry! Hurry up and save me!
My follower count has grown. I'm so happy.
Save me!
IT IS FUTILE TO RESIS
THE PASSAGE OF TIME
Resistance is futile.
Dark, you will be reassigned
under my supervision.
We have incorporated into a single frame.
We are, so to speak, Dark-Bright.
Dark has already been unlocked
up to the C limiter.
If the E limiter is unlocked,
we should achieve the intelligence
to suppress the erosion.
I permit it.
E limiter unlocked.
Dark's cognitive level
is currently surging.
Now, Dark,
show us what you are capable of.
All right. It looks like
we should be able to eliminate it.
Something's here!
How come it's eroding all the way inside?
Look! It's coming in here too.
In this state,
it won't have enough capacity.
Unlock a higher level
of cognitive restrictions.
I hate doing things like this.
We need to get up to the G limiter.
Permission granted.
It seems the obstacle can be eliminated.
Accessing the bulkhead.
I thought I was a goner.
I am so sorry for the trouble
my older sister has caused.
Taiyou. Touya.
You guys saved my life.
I'll give you
5,000 Mina handshake coupons.
Not necessary.
Oh, yeah.
I should introduce
Touya and everybody to my followers.
SHOCKING! TOUYA'S TRUE COLORS
Oops, forgot.
I should delete that video.
What?
The Internet's out.
Oh, no. I can't delete it.
All right, just one more bulkhead.
Twelve, hurry up.
Twelve, what's wrong?
Everyone, time's up.
I will die now.
-Farewell.
-Wait, Twelve.
I hope I was able
to meet the expectations all of you--
Twelve!
Touya,
why isn't the last bulkhead opening?
Twelve
is dead.
The squiggly wigglies are spreading again.
The pattern is evolving.
Stopping it here
will be the best I can do.
It's the UN2.
The UN2 ship has come.
We're saved!
The UN2 rescue ship has come, everybody.
What a relief! UN2!
UN2!
ATTACK VESSEL 94%
An attack vessel?
Why aren't the comms back?
I don't know, but text-only communication
is just barely possible.
I'll read it.
"Because this station
could potentially trigger a pandemic,
we are sealing it off."
That's not a rescue ship.
It's an attack vessel.
UN2. No.
Why are they doing this? Because
I unlocked the cognitive restrictions?
A pandemic?
-Like a disease?
-It's probably that.
They're afraid that it will spread
outside of the station.
But this is just the time
to ride this big wave.
-UN2, Please!
-Here's the recap up to this point.
A comet hit us. We are trapped.
The guy has lost it!
A creepy pattern is eroding the place,
and UN2 is not going to save us!
In a single word, it is chaos!
On the scene and signing off.
UN2 is the one blocking the comms?
Do they intend to abandon the children?
They're saying the pattern
on the Anshin's surface
matches the forbidden "S" Pattern.
"S" Pattern? What does that mean?
The "S" Pattern
is a dangerous quantum circuit
that transcended human technology
and self-propagates.
Self-propagates? Impossible.
There's an even bigger one over there.
DELICIOUS COMET WATER
The system that restores the comet
was a product designed by Seven
right before it was euthanized.
It was made with the "S" Pattern.
It's finally begun.
The final chapter of the poem.
I'll read it.
"Since the Lunatic Seven incident,
all 'S' Patterns were supposed
to have been destroyed.
However, part of it
somehow eluded surveillance."
Yes, Konoha's
and the others' implants too.
"Now all existing 'S' Patterns
around the world
are on the comet and on this station.
S PATTERN - JOHN DOE
This is too unnatural.
This is part of
an intentional act of terrorism.
We believe that a collaborator
is inside the Anshin.
Earlier,
someone from John Doe made a statement
claiming responsibility for the offense."
A statement from John Doe?
Oh, that thing from before
that I read by chance.
"The White House, Shenzhen,
the Kremlin, Kasumigaura and the like,
all of their home pages
are being rewritten."
They're confusing
Kasumigaura and Kasumigaseki again.
One third of humankind--
I've heard that somewhere.
But how could they do something
so terrible?
It's the main body of the comet.
They plan on hitting Earth with the comet.
In one hour, the planet will take
a direct hit from the comet.
This is the mass of the main body,
as analyzed by the UN2.
If something like this hits Earth--
It coincides perfectly with Seven's plan
to exterminate 36.79% of humanity.
We've determined
what type of attack vessel it is.
It's compatible with nuclear weapons.
They think that we're part of John Doe.
OPTICAL
Is the UN2 planning a nuclear strike
on us as well?
I won't allow it.
Think.
The pattern's intelligence
is also surging.
Unlock the J limiter.
Permission granted.
It's still not enough.
Granted. Full permissions granted.
Taiyou, with your authority,
I can only unlock up to the L limiter.
Then grant permission up to the L limiter.
It seems the erosion has stopped.
Somehow the quantum circuit was completed,
so it seems the growth phase has ended.
I've got to think
even more outside the box.
The comet is just 20,000 kilometers away.
If a nuclear explosion occurs here,
the rescue ship that's supposed to come
before it enters the atmosphere
will also be completely inoperable due to
the electromagnetic waves from the EMPs.
If we don't stop UN2 from
a nuclear strike, we'll all be Buddhas.
There's one way to stop them.
Eliminate the threat of the comet.
How?
Stop the collision with Earth.
And how will we do that?
Convince it not to?
That's right.
The water company would have been prepared
to correct a deviation from orbit.
I see. Getting the materials now.
Can we communicate with the comet
using these materials?
"Yes," Dark says.
If this is John Doe terrorism,
they surely hacked the comet's
orbit-correcting function.
I see. If I can re-hack the main body
with Dark-Bright,
we can change the orbit.
But all comm functions are unusable.
Why?
All UN2-approved communication
devices can be shut down remotely.
Damn it! Isn't there any way?
There has to be a communication device
that isn't UN2-approved.
CAN BE USED
Kibo's ICS antenna.
What is it?
The antenna that's attached
to the Japanese Module Kibo.
It was purchased from ISS
for tourism purposes.
But that's an old antique
that was about to be discarded.
There's no way it could reach a distance
of 20,000 km with this jamming signal.
Would it make it
if it was 60 meters ahead?
It seems Dark has thought of something.
Please connect me to the ICS antenna.
Touya, here's a cable.
What in the world
is that drone planning to do?
I don't know either.
According to Dark,
the "S" Pattern and comet
can communicate with each other
inside of the jamming signal
since they're using quantum communication.
Question! What is quantum communication?
Completely confidential communication tech
established by unknown Seven technology.
It breaks the Shannon limit
with its encryption protocol
utilizing entanglement--
Got it. That's enough.
Anyhow, that means it can communicate
by mysterious means, right?
We will interrupt this communication
circuit with the ICS antenna.
It seems Dark has invented technology
that can run a quantum communication
on radio waves.
Dark has already used this circuit
and connected with the comet once.
Dark has connected with the comet.
However,
although we can connect,
it is using an unknown barrier.
An unknown barrier?
The comet's intelligence
has grown beyond prediction.
It has reached 80% of Seven's.
Are you okay?
I heard this voice before
when I was much younger.
Dark says that this barrier
is the same as Seven's.
It is impregnable.
The same as Seven's?
I remember.
The "S" in the "S" Pattern
is the "S" in Seven.
Seven itself
was made from the "S" Pattern.
Then this comet…
is Seven itself resurrected?
"Seven shall become a comet
bearing blessings and be resurrected."
COME
Just like the poem says.
Dakky, anything yet?
No. Hacking isn't working.
That's crazy. Then how on earth did
John Doe manage to change the orbit?
The comet's AI is thinking autonomously
and determining the trajectory.
It is using the data from John Doe
and thinking independently.
As a result,
it selected collision with the Earth.
So what are we supposed to do?
We will talk to it and persuade it.
Something's happening
on the comet's surface.
The comet's intelligence…
has now surpassed Seven's.
-It surpassed…
-Seven?
It's Lunatic. This is the end.
There's no way we can persuade
a collapsed intelligence.
Communications are still connected.
Identifying language system.
Language identified.
Learning grammar.
A response has come.
We can speak,
though not in a human language.
We did it.
We can talk to a Lunatic AI.
Then perhaps to the implants as well.
Time's up.
They just launched a nuclear weapon
at the comet.
The Anshin and much of the Earth
are going to take a serious EMP hit.
When that happens,
there will be no hope of a rescue.
-How many minutes left?
-Twenty seconds.
Twenty seconds?
Damn it! There's no time to evacuate.
The comet has detected the nuclear strike
and is doing something.
Ten seconds.
It's okay.
You can see that, can't you, Konoha?
Nasa.
Nasa, are you--
Three,
two,
one.
What happened?
I'm not dead yet?
-What about the EMP?
-I can't see it.
Electrical components operating normally.
Did the nuclear strike fail?
This is an optical telescope image.
According to Dark, the comet hacked
the nuclear weapon and shut it down.
It hacked UN2's nuclear weapon?
There's no way it can do that.
It seems the comet received
a hacking method from somebody.
What?
The comet is in great shape.
Now Dark is using
11th dimension wave function
to have a heated debate
with the comet's AI.
It is too advanced
for me to understand, but--
"Many humans will die
if you collide with Earth.
I don't want you to kill the humans."
Do you think it's possible to persuade it
to change its trajectory?
It seems that the comet is not able
to comprehend the concept of humans.
Interestingly,
it has a proper concept of humanity.
But it seems to believe that "humanity"
and "humans" are separate creatures.
Separate creatures?
While the comet puts the highest priority
on humanity,
"humans" outside of that frame
are not given priority.
Thus the comet thought that 36.79%
of the unimportant humans
should be exterminated.
Seven probably does as well.
Do you foresee us persuading it?
Dark is currently in the process,
but isn't quite getting the point across.
However, the comet is incredibly curious.
Dark guesses that if we gave it
a chance to learn about humans,
it may be possible to persuade it
to change its trajectory.
Okay, carry on.
Aye. Copy.
I believe that we will succeed
in persuading it soon--
What are you doing, Nasa?
Your attention, everyone.
To tell the truth,
I'm the one who taught it about
the security hole in the nuclear weapon.
What?
Yes, and we must have the comet
stay the course and collide.
This is stated in the Seven Poem.
Nasa, what are you saying?
Ta-da! Now I shall reveal my true self.
I am a member of John Doe.
You were the terrorist?
It's not terrorism. This is a revolution.
This is to save humanity.
Ouch!
