This is a reliable tip from an organ smuggler he dealt with. 08:43.620 --> 08:47.880 The International Human Rights Committee and other organizations... 08:48.130 --> 08:50.090 ...have warrants for him... 08:50.300 --> 08:54.930 ...for vivisection experiments and dealing in human organs. 08:55.260 --> 08:59.560 To which end I ask for your cooperation... 08:59.760 --> 09:06.190 ...seeing I've never been in this city and I don't know east from west here. 09:07.020 --> 09:12.230 I'd like to help, but with the celebrations for the Ziggurat... 09:12.440 --> 09:14.320 ...going on all week... 09:14.530 --> 09:20.700 ...it's taking every single person I have to keep things under control. 09:21.200 --> 09:23.790 I don't have anybody. 09:24.040 --> 09:28.460 Well, I could give you a robot if that's okay with you. 09:28.670 --> 09:31.050 A robot?! 09:31.250 --> 09:34.260 Yes.

How do you do? 10:10.180 --> 10:14.260 I am Model 803-D-RP-DM... 10:14.470 --> 10:17.390 ...497-3-C. 10:18.430 --> 10:21.400 Uh, how do you do? 10:31.660 --> 10:35.700 The completion of the Ziggurat... 10:35.910 --> 10:39.870 ... establishes our Metropolis as the world leader... 10:40.080 --> 10:43.290 ... in industry, economics and culture. 10:43.540 --> 10:50.300 Thus is born a state that will last a thousand years! 10:50.590 --> 10:53.930 I tremble at the honour of announcing... 10:54.260 --> 10:59.560 ... the culmination of humanity's long history of intellect and science. 10:59.770 --> 11:05.480 Our power spans the earth.

He was a great dog. 11:56.820 --> 12:00.540 In my opinion, a criminal could not hide... 12:00.740 --> 12:03.750 ...up here in Metropolis. 12:03.960 --> 12:07.540 I have reliable sources that say he's here! 12:07.790 --> 12:12.340 Dr. Laughton would not hide up here. He would go to Zone 1. 12:12.590 --> 12:15.340 -Zone 1 ? -Underground. 12:15.510 --> 12:18.390 Hey! You are a detective! 12:18.930 --> 12:24.600 It is simply a calculation of probabilities. 12:47.250 --> 12:50.420 Robots are strictly forbidden... 12:51.130 --> 12:53.840 ...to operate outside their assigned area. 12:54.050 --> 13:00.470 That robot was not authorized to operate at surface level. 13:08.520 --> 13:13.690 Okay, but who are those guys? They look like fascists. 13:13.900 --> 13:19.070 The Malduk Party, vigilantes who started as a political group. 13:19.280 --> 13:23.620 Movement between levels is restricted. 13:23.830 --> 13:29.040 No one who carries the mark may pass through this gate. 13:29.250 --> 13:31.540 So that robot had the mark? 13:31.750 --> 13:35.300 Yes. Each block has a gate like this. 13:35.510 --> 13:40.930 There are, of course, hidden ways and people who work as guides to them. 13:41.140 --> 13:43.640 Damn right! The system's wrong! 13:48.520 --> 13:53.520 It takes light to create shadow, I guess. 13:53.860 --> 13:57.320 This level is not particularly dangerous... 13:57.530 --> 14:03.700 ...but there are places in which police writ does not run. Avoid them. 14:03.950 --> 14:09.330 We can't do that. We're not here as tourists. 15:08.930 --> 15:10.810 Duke Red. 15:11.850 --> 15:13.770 Let's see it. 15:32.290 --> 15:37.000 Very good. Isn't she finished? 15:37.210 --> 15:42.840 Her final-stage energy processor isn't stable yet. 15:44.010 --> 15:47.100 Are you using real organs? 15:47.300 --> 15:51.180 Dear me, no! That's illegal! 15:51.390 --> 15:56.230 Real organs are quicker, but they don't last very long. 15:56.440 --> 15:59.320 Hers are mechanical. I made them. 15:59.650 --> 16:04.240 She will be my masterpiece! 16:08.200 --> 16:09.830 When will you finish? 16:10.040 --> 16:14.120 Within the week. If I start her too early... 16:14.330 --> 16:19.340 ...she'll build up too much energy, catch fire and explode. 16:23.010 --> 16:25.470 My Tima.... 17:05.720 --> 17:09.010 I'm not giving you to anyone! 17:09.220 --> 17:12.770 I'll put on the finishing touches... 17:12.970 --> 17:16.270 ...and together we will flee! 17:32.950 --> 17:36.790 Rock? What are you doing here? 17:37.000 --> 17:40.460 Protecting my father is my most important task. 17:40.670 --> 17:45.590 Father?

I know what you're up to. 17:52.720 --> 17:57.850 No mad scientist is going to deceive my father. 17:59.100 --> 18:04.150 And no mannequin like this will steal his heart. 18:05.150 --> 18:06.570 Stop! 18:06.900 --> 18:11.320 It is at Duke Red's request that I've made Tima. 18:11.530 --> 18:14.830 Tima is the super-being who is to sit... 18:15.240 --> 18:18.790 ...on the Throne of Power atop the Ziggurat. 18:19.040 --> 18:24.840 You lie! He would never give the Ziggurat to a robot! 18:25.050 --> 18:28.970 Perhaps you should ask Duke Red about that. 18:29.300 --> 18:36.020 Will you destroy the super-being for whom the one you call Father waits? 18:40.060 --> 18:44.570 No robot will steal my father! 18:50.490 --> 18:53.620 No! Don't! 19:02.170 --> 19:06.250 O, ye Gods, give me courage... 19:06.460 --> 19:11.880 ...and strength to guard my father from machines! 20:12.030 --> 20:14.070 Fire!

They think we're nothing but garbage! 21:02.830 --> 21:06.830 To arms! Now we have to fight! 21:07.080 --> 21:11.840 Please remain calm.

They're organizing protests. 35:41.480 --> 35:44.570 There's fighting breaking out. 35:45.740 --> 35:48.320 This is our chance, Mr. President! 35:48.530 --> 35:53.540 We could make a case for treason here. 35:57.160 --> 35:59.630 Will the military support us? 35:59.830 --> 36:05.550 Some units are under Duke Red's influence, but I can handle that. 36:10.340 --> 36:13.350 We'll stir up the public with a few leaks. 36:13.560 --> 36:19.810 Once sentiment is against Duke Red, we'll arrest him for treason. 36:20.980 --> 36:24.610 Should military action be needed, you have... 36:24.820 --> 36:26.490 ...my approval. 36:35.160 --> 36:38.830 I suspect he was the guy who did in Laughton. 36:39.040 --> 36:43.040 What I don't understand is how they were connected. 36:43.250 --> 36:48.050 Just what was Laughton working on, anyway? 36:49.300 --> 36:51.340 What will you do? 36:51.590 --> 36:56.770 Laughton's already dead. I want, at least, to know why. 36:56.970 --> 37:00.060 My client deserves that. 37:18.120 --> 37:22.580 -Where's he going now? -Zone 2, I think. 37:22.790 --> 37:27.590 There's another level below this? How far down does this place go? 37:28.510 --> 37:32.840 Zone 2 is the Metropolis power plant area. 37:33.180 --> 37:37.560 Zone 3 below that is the sewage-handling facility. 37:37.890 --> 37:39.640 The sewage facility. 37:39.850 --> 37:45.730 You know, he was looking at a drain behind that factory. 37:47.900 --> 37:52.070 I'll report back and get permission to go below. 37:52.280 --> 37:56.990 I'll file a missing persons report on Kenichi too. 37:57.370 --> 38:01.120 -Hey! You're old for a petty thief! -Sorry! 38:02.790 --> 38:07.290 If anyone was wandering around down there... 38:07.500 --> 38:10.130 ...they'd notice him right away. 38:12.300 --> 38:14.340 How often are you down here? 38:14.590 --> 38:18.140 Twice a week, for maintenance on the robots. 38:28.360 --> 38:34.740 These are Albert ll types. It's their last check this week. 38:54.300 --> 38:56.180 Is anyone here? 39:03.770 --> 39:08.610 You never get used to the stink down here, though. 39:09.360 --> 39:13.740 No human could last a day at this work. 39:26.500 --> 39:28.630 -What is it? -Someone's there. 39:28.830 --> 39:30.500 Impossible! 39:31.500 --> 39:37.220 Hey!

They're criminals. 39:48.270 --> 39:50.520 How do we get out of here? 39:53.730 --> 39:58.030 Stop that, please! You'll hit the equipment! 40:07.330 --> 40:09.000 Are you okay? 40:25.890 --> 40:28.810 That guy's trying to kill us! 41:06.310 --> 41:08.850 Move! Move!

Fifi can't go through that gate. 42:42.030 --> 42:46.240 Thanks for everything, Fifi.

May I see your I.D.? 43:29.700 --> 43:31.830 I'm Rock of the Malduks! 43:35.410 --> 43:38.580 Demonstrations are forbidden during Celebration Week. 43:38.790 --> 43:42.300 Please disperse immediately. 43:44.050 --> 43:45.920 Kenichi? 43:48.550 --> 43:50.720 -Kenichi! -Hey! 43:52.970 --> 43:54.220 Pay up! 46:12.280 --> 46:16.080 -They're not here! -They have to be! Keep looking! 46:49.820 --> 46:52.740 Look over that way! 47:21.310 --> 47:24.850 What's the matter, Atlas? We're waiting for your signal! 47:25.060 --> 47:29.650 Not today. There are Malduks all over the place. 47:29.860 --> 47:33.990 -Was there a leak? -They're the reason. 47:35.150 --> 47:39.240 Rock's after them. Come on! 47:39.490 --> 47:44.000 He was at that factory. 47:57.640 --> 47:59.970 Who are you? Where did you come from? 48:00.180 --> 48:04.220 I'm Kenichi. I'm from Japan. My uncle's a private.... 48:04.430 --> 48:11.190 -A private what? -A journalist! I'm his assistant. 48:12.270 --> 48:14.110 Why is Rock after you? 48:14.360 --> 48:18.910 I don't know. He just started shooting at us. 48:19.110 --> 48:22.530 I don't trust them. Let's kill them. 48:23.080 --> 48:27.370 Cool it! We're not a gang. 48:27.580 --> 48:30.330 He says he's a journalist. 48:30.540 --> 48:37.880 If he can tell the world about Metropolis, that helps us! 48:38.090 --> 48:44.520 We can't waste time on nice uniforms and our pictures in the paper. 48:45.520 --> 48:48.060 The uniform I die in... 48:49.650 --> 48:52.690 ...will be the uniform of the revolution! 49:32.900 --> 49:34.570 Look at that! 49:34.770 --> 49:37.070 -She looks like an angel! -Yeah. 49:38.070 --> 49:39.990 An angel. 49:47.160 --> 49:51.580 Around here there's two or three families to a room. 49:52.710 --> 49:55.880 There are no schools and hardly any jobs. 49:56.130 --> 50:01.510 They survive on food handouts, but with the Ziggurat celebrations... 50:01.720 --> 50:03.640 ...that's all been stopped. 50:04.850 --> 50:08.350 What does "Ziggurat" mean? 50:09.480 --> 50:12.730 It's an ancient Babylonian tower. 50:12.940 --> 50:18.190 The Tower of Babel was one. You know what happened to that. 50:18.440 --> 50:22.610 The king's pride brought down the wrath of God on him. 50:23.950 --> 50:28.580 History repeats itself. The same thing will happen to Duke Red. 50:28.790 --> 50:33.170 But it won't be God this time. It'll be us. 50:58.650 --> 51:00.690 Is that wrong? 51:05.780 --> 51:11.750 No, it's fine. I was just thinking your hair's grown. 51:12.580 --> 51:16.210 What kind of hair do you like? 51:18.090 --> 51:20.710 Yours is fine right now. 51:21.800 --> 51:26.050 Let's get back to your writing. Next comes.... 51:26.260 --> 51:28.300 -Tima. -What? 51:29.050 --> 51:31.310 Tima. My name. 51:34.690 --> 51:37.810 So you remember! 51:38.520 --> 51:42.820 That's great! Now you'll start remembering more and more. 51:44.240 --> 51:47.820 Thank you, Kenichi. 51:55.290 --> 51:59.790 Oh, I forgot. I borrowed this from Atlas. 52:05.880 --> 52:07.640 Kenichi? 52:14.640 --> 52:18.730 So the army's with us? That helps a lot. 52:18.940 --> 52:21.770 The underground residents support us... 52:21.980 --> 52:26.450 ...but they're not sure if we've got the strength to win. 52:26.650 --> 52:31.410 The Malduks are to move when the Ziggurat celebrations end. 52:31.620 --> 52:37.410 We want you to crush them and storm the Ziggurat. 52:37.620 --> 52:44.090 The president will announce the arrest of Duke Red for treason. 52:44.300 --> 52:46.920 He will invoke his powers... 52:47.130 --> 52:51.010 ...to take control of the police and military. 52:52.010 --> 52:57.140 Then Metropolis will be governed by the rule of law. 52:57.690 --> 53:03.150 And we will participate as a proper political party. 53:07.950 --> 53:14.660 Of course, Atlas. The president will welcome you with open arms. 53:15.790 --> 53:18.410 The things I get myself into! 53:18.620 --> 53:21.880 I finally find that kid and look what happens! 53:22.080 --> 53:26.380 I'm sorry I could not have been of more assistance. 53:26.590 --> 53:28.670 What are you talking about? 53:28.880 --> 53:33.800 You've been lots of help! I don't know east from west here. 53:34.010 --> 53:38.680 Don't worry about Kenichi. He's tougher than he-- 53:42.100 --> 53:44.610 Cut that out! 53:50.150 --> 53:53.160 Just look at this, will you? 54:33.950 --> 54:39.910 "Watch out. Hide, robots. Coup d'état." 54:40.120 --> 54:43.210 What?! A coup d'état? 55:11.570 --> 55:13.650 Oh, man! 55:34.430 --> 55:37.550 Take a good look, Kenichi. 55:37.760 --> 55:41.640 Tell the whole world how angry we are. 56:00.580 --> 56:03.290 I'm all out of breath! 56:09.250 --> 56:13.960 We'd better get out of here, Pero. We can't do anything. 56:14.210 --> 56:16.930 Ask headquarters for backup. 56:17.090 --> 56:20.430 I'm not leaving you here! 56:20.680 --> 56:26.060 It's robots they're going to attack first! 56:27.270 --> 56:29.810 -I will be fine. -What? 56:30.480 --> 56:36.650 It is also my duty to ensure the safety of all visitors to our city. 56:36.860 --> 56:43.200 All right. Just don't stir anything up till I get back! 56:58.180 --> 57:02.470 Are you going to hold this gate all by yourself? 57:02.680 --> 57:08.140 Demonstrations are forbidden during Celebration Week. Please disperse. 57:08.390 --> 57:11.690 Sorry, we can't do that. Our time has come. 57:11.940 --> 57:17.190 Why must humanity settle matters by resorting to violence? 57:19.490 --> 57:23.990 Yes, we all know that. I agree it is a problem. 57:24.200 --> 57:28.120 It's our emotions. They vibrate, and all we can do... 57:28.330 --> 57:30.920 ...is move forward within that amplitude. 57:31.130 --> 57:35.050 But without affirming them, we can't survive. 57:59.320 --> 58:02.200 It's time for the uprising to begin. 58:02.450 --> 58:05.490 When should we release a statement? 58:06.330 --> 58:09.290 Things should be clear by about 1 p.m... 58:09.540 --> 58:13.000 ...so I suggest 3 or 3:30. 58:18.710 --> 58:21.510 What is it, minister? 58:22.640 --> 58:24.600 Hard to relax, eh? 58:24.800 --> 58:29.520 Yes, Mr. President.
