Huh? Yes, I understand. Yes.

Station 8, end of report.

Yes, what is it?

What's wrong, mister?

What's this? “Wakabacho 1-3-27.”

Have a seat.

“Mr. Sato Shigeo,” correct? Please wait a minute.

Here we go.

Wakabacho... Wakabacho...

Ouch!

What was that for?

- Huh? - Mosq... mosq...

Oh, thanks!

The mosquitoes are awful here. Open gutters all over the place.

Thanks a lot, Mayor Minobe. Oops, it's Suzuki now, right?

Let's see now.

You sure came prepared, mister.

Thanks a lot.

Number 27, right? Let's see.

Hey! I'm no mosquito.

Let's see...

Wait a sec...

"Handgun Stolen from Police Officer Did Thief Use Sleeping Gas?"

Bubblegum's sleeping again!

- Everyone's here? - Yes!

- Come on, let's go! - The guide's not back yet.

Where's Saito?

What's the holdup?

You! What do you think you're doing?

Do you want to die?

I'll kill everyone.

What are you laughing at?

Get moving! Drive the bus!

We're going to Imperial Palace! To the palace!

What are you going to do at the Imperial Palace?

I have business with the emperor.

What?

- I need to talk to the emperor! - What do you need to talk about?

About getting back my child. My son...

Close the gate! Close the gate!

Fire! Shoot to kill!

Man in the bus. Hijacker in the bus.

You are completely surrounded!

Stop this foolishness and release the hostages at once!

- He's got a machine gun! - The hostages are middle school students.

Drop your weapons and come out!

Drop your weapons and come out!

- May I? - Yes, sir.

You in the bus! You in the bus!

Toyo Tourism

State your demands. Please state your demands.

Inspector, the sniper team has arrived.

There's twenty men here, and fifteen behind.

- How about here? - It's a blind spot.

Someone's coming out.

Who's that guy?

It's the teacher.

Hurry!

Have any of the students been injured? Is there a single gunman?

- What kind of weapon does he have? - What's the situation inside?

Are the students safe?

What are his demands? Yamashita -- I'm handling this case.

Nice to meet you.

Can you tell me his demands?

He says-

He wants to see the emperor.

He wants to meet the emperor and talk about something.

OK, when I say “fire,” start shooting.

But from that distance we might hit you...

It's the only way. To your posts.

Yes, sir!

- Let me know when they're ready. - Understood.

- I'm going too. - But...

My students are waiting. And I don't want that guy to get upset.

- Just don't get in my way. - Thanks.

This is Inspector Yamashita of the Marunouchi police.

Mr. Kido and I are coming to the bus.

We're coming to talk. We'd like you to cooperate.

In exchange, I'm going to put down my weapon.

What do you teach?

- Science. - Really?

Not much use now, is it?

Halt! Stop there!

Hands on your heads!

Don't move 'em!

Wait!

N-Not yet- Stay where you are!

OK, come in.

On your knees! On your knees over there!

The emperor says he'll meet with you.

I'm telling the truth.

He says he'll talk with you.

Really? He said that?

Thank you. My deepest gratitude.

But before that-

Before that I want you to release the hostages.

The Emperor also hopes you will honor this request.

It's so bright!

Stay back!

Don't come any closer!

Get back in the barricade!

What's going on?

Hey, walk!

Hurry!

Open the gate!

Don't try anything!

Do what you promised! You made a promise!

Don't try anything!

Shut up!

Run!

Fire! Do it now, shoot!

Hold your fire! Hold your fire!

Forgive me, Emperor.

Ambulance!

Bring an ambulance!

You all right, teacher?

Yes.

I heard he just got released from a mental hospital.

That cop was cool.

He's a freak.

Bubblegum's pretty weird too.

- He was fearless! - It's funny how he can be so brave.

Even though he always looks like he's about to fall asleep!

Inspector Yamashita Becomes Hero Officer Throws Self at Mad Criminal

Teacher's Valiant Effort

Hey!

What is atomic power?

On December 2, 1942, humanity first unleashed

this power-massive and beautiful like the sun

with CP-1, a small atomic reactor located at the University of Chicago.

The extremely strong bond between protons and neutrons

serves as the foundation for atomic energy.

The strength of this bond is 10^40 times gravitation.

July, 1945-

America caries out the first successful atomic bomb experiments in Los Alamos, New Mexico.

August 3 - Hiroshima. August 9 - Nagasaki.

The massive power released in an instant as matter becomes non-matter,

destroys cities and incinerates people.

July, 1949 - Russia's atomic bomb experiments are successful.

December, 1952 - England.

Anyone can make an atomic bomb.

With the power of the sun back in your hands, your world changes.

Anyone can make an atomic bomb. As long as they can get a hold of plutonium-239.

Bang!

Bang!

"Who are you?"

"Who are you?"

"I'm..."

"I'm..."

What are you trying to do?

What are you trying to do?

DO NOT ENTER

PRIVATE PROPERTY

Storage

Of course, the security apparatus at Tokai Nuclear Power Plant is unbelievably strict,

so don't get any ideas.

And that's it. Any questions?

If you don't have any questions, class is dismissed.
