The Darwin Incident (ダーウィン事変)

Bert, it's me.

Yeah, what's up?

Charlie was gone when I went to pick him up from school.

I'm searching the area right now but he's not picking up his phone.

What? We took him to school this morning.

Lucy said she talked with him at lunch but hasn't seen him since.

What should we do?

What if those men attacked him again?

Hannah, stay calm.

I can't leave now. I've got a class to teach.

First… Right, go to the sheriff's office.

I'll be there as soon as I can.

Okay. Come quickly.

Where are you, Charlie?

Wow.

This is truer than principles Discovered by geniuses like XY

You are so captivating That I can't take my eyes off you

We are merely beings who are just living

But we are beings unlike any other

You make me wonder

Actors caught in a drama Unaware of the ending

Our "relationship chart" is still blank And it bothers me

We only want to share laughter Yet somehow end up hurting each other

It wasn't supposed to be like this

I wonder what principles or clues Apply to our relationship

A stereo yearning to blend Like left and right

Could it be love? I don't know

Are we at odds? I don't think so

It's a frustrating thing And I can't even tell if it's real

Just how deep is our relationship? Why can't it be measured?

I want to know you I want you to know me

And what's the level of expectation When we get to know each other?

I know nothing else but the long-sought Love, and I want to seek it out

You make me wonder

Just beyond words

You make me wonder

EPISODE 4 ONE OF A KIND

I came alone.

Wait.

- Hi. - Yo.

Would you like to have a seat and talk?

Okay, now. I'm happy to meet you, Charlie.

So, where should I begin?

Why are you here?

I had been thinking about the anxiety and fears humans have

and realized the psychological pain they cause is more serious

and needs to be more urgently addressed than I thought.

What do you think?

That's exactly right.

What an incredible insight you've made.

It's actually more agonizing and more persistent than physical pain.

And yet,

those who only believe in the physical world are so completely blind to it.

You're right.

In other words, the three of you who attacked Mom, Dad and Lucy

are causing them pain even now.

So, can you go to the police and turn yourselves in?

Can I ask a question too?

How did you find our hideout?

Even the police haven't found it.

That injury.

If you were still in the area and won't go to a hospital…

I thought you'd go to that pharmacy.

I looked into it and that is the only local pharmacy that carries antibiotics.

Wow. So, you staked it out and followed this guy back.

But you didn't know what he looked like.

Yeah. But I knew right away from the way he walked.

Did you know that each human has their own unique way of walking?

I use their walk instead of their face to recognize humans.

And these two men especially stand out.

They walk very differently.

Is it because of your profession?

I see. I see.

Then what would you do if we refuse to turn ourselves in?

In that case,

I believe I would incapacitate you all and take you to the police.

Wouldn't that be worse for you?

So I think it's best if you don't use that pistol.

Okay, I got it.

There's no way we can beat you.

We'll go with you and turn ourselves in.

Charlie, how did you follow our car all the way from the pharmacy?

I ran.

It was at least thirty kilometers.

You're not asking us anything, Charlie.

Ask what?

Like our identities, for example.

Aren't you curious?

There's no point in listening to your lies.

Lies?

You're the man who approached Lucy, right?

Lucy said you are a liar.

Yes, I am a liar but liars also speak the truth at times.

The truth is the truth even if it's a demon shouting it to the world.

Isn't that right?

That's true.

Then why did you try to kill everyone but me last night?

Of course, that's because you are special, Charlie.

Special? Me?

Of course you are.

Humanzee. A species named solely for you.

You don't belong to either the chimpanzee or human societies.

Even if you have kind foster parents and a friend like Lucy,

you'll never be one of them.

To them, you're nothing more than a talking pet.

But your true situation is even worse.

You were artificially made,

you can't produce children because you're a hybrid

and you don't even have any rights.

To put it nicely,

you're just an honorary human.

Even though there isn't a creature on this planet that is as special as you,

not a single person understands your significance.

Charlie, your unjust and unfair treatment should be denounced.

Don't you agree?

We might be able to help or support you in your fight.

I still don't understand.

What makes me so special?

You, me, and all animals are just "one." A single creature.

Three kilometers until your destination, the sheriff's office.

I'm starting to understand you now, Charlie.

I see. You're right.

Actually, I often have this thought.

When looking down at this planet from far up in space,

you see that all living things are neither superior nor inferior to one another.

So why do humans, who pride themselves on their ability to reason,

illogically discriminate against others?

Why can't all the living beings on this planet sympathize with one another?

It truly is as if all humans are fools.

But you know, Charlie,

you're trying to join human society by going to school.

Then simply existing as "one" being isn't enough.

You can't escape from it.

Escape? From what?

The fact that half of you is human.

See you.

What do you mean you don't know?

Like I said, Mrs. Stein.

We only patrol the area. We don't monitor...

What lies.

You've been practically harassing us by tailing us.

If you had done your job properly...

Hannah!

Lucy!

I heard from Bert. You still haven't found Charlie?

Yes. He hasn't read my messages, either.

What should I do, Lucy?

Oh, come on.

What was that sound?

A car accident?

Hey, call an ambulance.

Hey, what are you doing?

Don't move. Put the knife down!

Wait!

I knew you were trouble, Humanzee.

RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

Go!

Freeze! Lie face down on the ground!

Six members of the extremist group, the ALA,

who were involved in the terrorist bombing

in New York City were arrested in Richmond, Virginia.

During the press conference,

the authorities announced they have identified the core members of the ALA.

The Director of the FBI

stated he has placed two men believed to be the group's leaders

on the FBI's Most Wanted list.

One of the two men, Lesley K. Lippman, was a former officer in the US Army

and was a decorated soldier who received a medal for his actions in the Middle...

You're quite photogenic, Major Lippman.

So? What's our next move?

They know our faces and we've lost useful soldiers.

Including the one you sacrificed.

If I hadn't done that, who's to say we would've gotten away?

But didn't they say Min-su survived?

Thanks to Charlie.

He's really something else.

He just keeps surprising me.

Well, once Min-su wakes up he'll probably spill to the police.

He won't.

He didn't even say a word when he was taken as a POW and tortured.

He won't talk.

Then that's wonderful.

So what's our plan?

Do we take Charlie back from those country cops?

Yeah, that's not a bad idea.

But I've got another plan in mind.

Let's continue the war, Major Lippman.

I haven't seen Charlie around lately. Did he drop out?

- What? You haven't heard? - Heard what?

Didn't an ALA member get arrested around here?

They said Charlie was with him.

For real?

So he really has something to do with those terrorists?

Shit.

Hello, Hannah? It's Lucy.

Are you sure?

Won't your mom be angry if she finds out you were here?

It's okay.
