sync and transcript by: f1nc0 -- www.addic7ed.com --
Have you secured the package?
There were no problems. Everyting's going according to the schedule.
Tony Stark...
The company his family established went through explosive
growth once he inherited it, and he's a brilliant engineer.
On top of that, he's the superhero Iron Man.
He just seems like a goofy womanizer to me, though...
In our next story, Tony Stark, who is currently in Japan,
has been asked to appear as a special witness before a special investigative committee.
Stark is currently under suspicion of smuggling nuclear materials into Japan,
and his response to these allegations is eagerly anticipated.
Masuda-san! We have work to do!
I can't eat another bite...
What's going on here?
Stopping the construction of the station suddenly like this is...
It's not cancelled.
But I've received word that some concentrated plutonium was stolen,
and there are signs that it was smuggled into Japan.
That's what was reported.
And what's that got to do with my station?
The Arc Station requires plutonium in order to go online, doesn't it?
You're not suggesting that I had anything to do with this, are you?
I'm certain that you didn't. But the timing is terrible...
I understand. I'll retrieve that stolen plutonium for you, then.
No, there's already an investigation underway.
You don't need to worry about it.
There's something else that I'd like you to do...
Well then, Mr. Stark, there are suspicions that you are trying
to illegally smuggle nuclear materials into Japan.
Is there any truth to them?
What's wrong? Are you feeling alright?
Oh no, I just needed a second to remember how to phrase this in Japanese...
I remember how to say it now!
I'm beeing set-up.
Mr. Stark! That's not much of an explanation!
Could you give a statement for the public?
What was your meeting with minister Kuroda about?
Mr. Stark!
Jeez, you made us late, Masuda-san!
Hurry, come on!
Mr. Stark!
Sorry, could I get another lift?
Uh... what? You're kidding...
- Mr. Stark! - Stark-san!
- Wait, please! - We still have questions!
D-did I just get lucky?
Another big chance for a one-on-one interview?
Thanks again! I was able to get away from those pests with your help.
I know restaurant that has this incredible vintage wine, how about lunch?
- I'd rather interview you... - Please! Sir.
Oh, I'm sorry! Did I just ask you out in front of your boyfriend?
Just so you know, I do actually try to seduce every beautiful woman I meet.
- Isn't that a relief? - You've got it wrong!
This is my co-worker, and cameraman! So don't get the wrong idea!
You don't have to get so mad about it...
Mr. Stark!
You're trying to smuggle nuclear materials into Japan.
That's the rumor, but what's your response?
Because of these suspicions, Stark Industries' stock has taken a major hit.
If it's just a rumor, shouldn't you explain that to make your positions clear?
I can write your statement up, and I imagine it'd be for your benefit.
I see. You're starting to sound like a real reporter.
Thank you! Personally, I've been trying to...
But... I can't say I care for it.
Uh what? Did I just piss Tony Stark off?
No way!
Thank you.
Sitting around and waiting just doesn't seem to agree with me.
There he goes...
- I think made Tony Stark mad... - Nanami-chan...
This is the Maritime Defence Force.
We've finished investigating the vessel in question, but didn't find anything suspicious.
Roger that.
That must be it.
There's no one home...
Hey, are you okay?
What's going on?
Some kinda monster attacked us...
Don't let it get... the plutonium...
Shut down the thermal spectrum overlay and access radiation scanning mode.
Looks like the plutonium was here...
Don't tell me...
I am Cancer. A warrior of Zodiac.
Zodiac again...
Sorry, but I'm kind of in a hurry! You'll have to excuse me!
Put me through to minister Kuroda.
Minister, there's a problem with that boat you were investigating.
What are you talking about?
Well for one thing, all the JSDF soldiers you sent in are dead.
How can that be?!
Are you familiar with an organisation that calls itself Zodiac?
They're a group of terrorists that use advanced tech, and have been...
responsible for multiple acts of global sabotage and destruction.
They're the ones with the plutonium.
This is a little hard to believe.
Plus, I don't remember asking you to look into the plutonium incident.
I have consider the chance that you're trying to avert suspicion...
towards you by claiming this group involved...
I get it... I guess the only way to prove...
my innocence now is to get back the plutonium myself?
I'll do what I can to assist you.
In that case, please set up some security checks in the city.
I understand.
They're a few steps ahead of me...
Access the logs of the security cameras.
Good, now play it in reverse.
Stop.
There is it.
Access the global surveillance satellite.
Bring up information regarding the road infrastructure,
and run a simulation with 3D projection.
That's gotta be it.
Continue monitoring and patch this data stream through to the Iron Man.
Very good, sir.
Say, Nanami-chan...
Are you really going to try and interview Tony Stark again?
Well I can't let it end like this!
You sure do bounce back fast...
- What is it? - Tony Stark was in that car!
Say something sooner next time!
Na...Nanami-chan! You're going too fast!
He is not getting away this time!
This time I'm gonna get a proper interview!
This is crazy!
Masuda-san! I need your camera!
Wait! Nanami-chan?!
- I'm going to borrow this bike! - Hey!
Sorry! I'll return it to you later!
Minister Kuroda, I'm in pursuit of the plutonium thieves.
- Really?! - I'm going to force them into security check.
This is...
What the hell? It's all jammed up all of a sudden.
What's the problem? Get us moving!
Taky any street that looks clear.
It's blocked off again! What the hell is going on?!
There it is.
- Someone's following us! - What?!
But we're so close to the rendezvous point!
You're not getting away from me that easily.
The payload is just a smokescreen...
but if the shell hits you it'll still do damage.
- He missed us on purpose! - He's toying with us!
Dammit, a security check!
There he is!
Let's go!
I have you now.
Crap! Here he comes!
Ow ow ow...
What? What is all this?
Hand over the plutonium.
You overdid it! Stop this before you hurt a civilian!
Who are you?
A good samaritan!
The rendezvous is nearby! Let's go!
Right!
I need to go too!
If you're just a good samaritan, then could you move aside?
I should warn you, you've broken a number of laws already.
Well, I apologize.
But I'm in the middle of something important.
Can we talk about this later?
I don't want your apology. Let me reiterate...
You have no right to violate this country's laws.
E-excuse me! Sorry to interrupt, but...
Stark-san! Please, let me interview you again!
You again?
- Wh... what is that?! - Go!
Looks like they like to play rough.
The plutonium is inside of her case?!
Dammit! That woman! She has it!
What are you coming after me for?!
Come on, save me, Iron Man!
It vanished? A stealth mode?
No readings... I've never seen such advance camouflage.
This is Sakurai! Requesting permission to engage the enemy in public...
to contain the escalating emergency situation!
Understood.
What's he trying to do?
I get it! There it is!
Now what, what's going on?!
Return the plutonium!
Leave me alone!
Sorry, but could I ask you to relax for a minute?
I've kind of got my hands full.
- I'm taking this plutonium back, Zodiac! - Plutonium?!
The recent allegations regarding Tony Stark smuggling nuclear materials were proven false...
by the actions of Iron Man, with Tony Stark effectively clearing his own name.
It's possible that public opinion towards Tony Stark...
will be perceived more broadly in light if recent events.
Nanami-chan!
Masuda-san! I'm so sorry!
I'll pay for that camera that I lost with my next paycheck...
That's not what I meant! Here.
It's so pretty... who sent it?
Looking forward to our 3rd ride. Tony Stark.
I bet he liked your article!
You... you think so?
I read your report.
So what was your impression of Tony Stark?
He doesn't hesitate in breaking the law, but he does show...
incredible dedication to accomplishing his goals.
Either way, he's a fascinating individual.
I see! Thank you for your input.
