This place!
Nonoha?
What are...
Fr..Freecell!
Kaito, let's do a puzzle.
What is it?
Weren't you going to save me?
I can see it, Kaito.
Our puzzle time!
What was that just now?
Don't tell me...
Lost
Tesaguri de sagashiteta I've searched, groping
Tozasareta mirai no kotae nante doko nimo nai The answer to a future that's been closed off
Tozasareta mirai no kotae nante doko nimo nai Is nowhere to be found
Hashiru shoudou, ima kaidoku funou The impulse to run, it's impossible to decipher now
Found
Kudaketa hazu no unmei o A fate that was supposedly smashed
Mijuku na yume no naka de kikoeta kitanda I've come to hear it within that half-formed dream:
Saigo made I'll be there for you Until the end, I'll be there for you
Tachidomaranai, kono hari dake wa It won't stop, not this needle
Boku no asu o kizamu oto o tsukisasu It will pierce the sound that engraves my tomorrow
Shinjitsu kara nigetara ima If I run from the truth, then now...

The Puzzle of Fools, Once Again
The POG has been investigating this "Klondike" name.
You learn anything?
Sure enough, just the name.
Jeez, the POG ain't no use!
Then, do your own investigating!
I will report next.
Ana's big sister, Eve Gram...
and Pinochle...
I've examined the remains of their Rings, and the result...
Sure enough, they're both Replica Rings.
H..Hold on a minute.
Wasn't it the Orpheus Order themselves
who said their Rings were real?
Yeah, and that they're true Phi-Brain children.
At any rate, their Rings were replicas, no doubt about it.
And the others' too?
Freecell said he made his fake Ring into a real one.
A Replica into a real one?
Is that possible?
It shouldn't be, even theoretically.
What's more, he said his mom dyin' wasn't Kaito's fault, huh?
He said that he loved his mother,
but also that he hated her, right?
Kaito?
Doubt, have you seen Melancholy?
I can't find her anywhere.
No.
Oh, that child...
I wonder what's going on?
Herbert was beaten, and Freecell has disappeared.
We aren't receiving any new orders.
I care nothing for that.
I wait for word from Mr. Klondike.
That is all.
We remain unable to locate Freecell.
His using the Replica Ring to awaken to his Phi-Brain potential
was not in our calculations.
There is no outcome that the calculations do not produce.
This is nothing more than your mistake.
Do you understand?
I'm very sorry.
Nothing in this world fails to proceed by my calculations.
This mistake must be quickly addressed,
Mr. Whist.
Understood, Mr. Klondike.
This cute place suits me more
than some moldy old castle, don't you think?
Yes, it suits you well.
Hey, so, what's gonna happen now?
Even I do not know.
Huh? That's boring!
Not knowing how something will
develop makes it more interesting, Miss Melancholy.
Really?
No matter how the chips fall, there is always enjoyment.
Where did Kaito go to?
Did he go home ahead of me?
A "memento of Mama," huh?
Gammon, what's going on?
That's my line, Q-taro!
What the hell are you hidin'?
Wh..What are you talking about?
Quit actin' dumb.
Last night, Kaito's brainwaves were active.
You're still monitorin' him?!
And?
The activation pattern
matched that when he approached
Phi-Brain potential and saw the future.
At first, I thought maybe the sensors were broken, but...
He trashed the Orpheus Order's armlet.
This ain't possible, right?
I thought that too.
But...
That wasn't a dream.
That sensation...
I'm sure of it.
What I saw was the future.
Also, that Ring's glow...
Freecell...
Is Freecell really...
Him!
Bastard, what the hell have you done?!
It seems Mr. Freecell is not with you.
Freecell?
What are you talking about?
I came here thinking perhaps he had.
I shall explore other avenues.
Goodbye.
Wait! Goodbye.
Yes?
Freecell's and the other's Rings are replicas, aren't they?
Get in, if you want.
As you said, Mr. Freecell and the others own Replica Rings.
They are samples for collecting data, nothing more.
Thanks to their games with you,
we acquired some splendid data.
We're grateful for your cooperation.
Why are you looking for Freecell?
Mr. Freecell has begun to awaken to his Phi-Brain potential.
That something like that could happen with
a Replica Ring was outside our assumptions.
We must collect all data.
If you encounter Mr. Freecell, please tell him I am looking for him.
Sure enough, Freecell's becoming a Phi-Brain!
In which case...
But you can't beat me as you are now.
After all, I'm...
Just wait, Freecell.
I'll do my best.
What did you say?!
Rook...
Let me challenge a Puzzle of Fools.
Kaito ain't here?!
Yeah, I went to get him this morning and he was gone.
I thought he'd come to school early, but...
He wasn't here.
Yeah...
I wonder what happened?
Come to think of it, Kaito asked me to
contact Master Rook yesterday.
What the heck for?
I didn't get any specifics.
He just said, "Tell him I want to meet him."
Could that have something to do with it?
So, inside here...
Yes, there is a puzzle.
The Puzzle of Fools that Master Rook made to lead you
to your Phi-Brain potential.
You're really going to challenge it, Kaito?
Yeah!
I, for one, object.
Please reconsider.
I gotta get stronger,
to battle Freecell and then save him.
That guy...
He friggin' said he didn't care about the promise, or his mom.
That's how deeply he's been swallowed up by the Ring?
I...
I gotta stop him.
But the way I am now, I got no chance of winning.
Because he's begun to awaken to his Phi-Brain potential?
That's why you will challenge a Puzzle of Fools,
so that you too can?
Forget it.
I won't be no Phi-Brain.
I'll get stronger without doin' that.
Master Rook, this is dangerous.
We must stop him.
Kaito's feelings won't change.
Neither will mine.
Puzzle time...
Let's begin!
This is...
a maze?
An hourglass...
I have to find the route in a set time and make it to the exit?
Anyway, I've just gotta try!
This thing...
Pitfalls in front of the stone faces?
I've gotta go forward avoiding these things, huh?
It's no good, I can't go any farther.
If the stone faces have pitfalls in front of 'em,
I'm boxed in all eight ways.
That leaves this one, which faces to the rear.
It moves!
The stone face can move the space of one floor panel.
Maybe each can only be moved once.
I get it, you gotta move the stone faces to make your path!
All right!
What is it, Cube?
Th..This is...
Kaito is solving a puzzle.
What'd you say?!
Don't tell me he's been ambushed by the Orpheus Order!
Cube!
Hold on, I'll pull up a map.
Huh? No way!
What?
You got an idea or somethin'? What?
A Puzzle of Fools?!
Yes, what's more, one that Master Rook made.
So, Rook is with him?
His thought speed is increasing rapidly.
What's Kaito doing in a Puzzle of Fools?
I, Ana, think the two of them will be okay.
Ana...
Let's believe in them, in Kaito and Rook.
What?!
Dammit, yet another trap, huh?!
Even now, I can't forgive myself.
Master Rook...
Not for making such a cold-hearted puzzle.
That was...
You were swallowed up by the Armlet.
It's not your fault, Master Rook.
Yes, swallowed up by the Armlet,
I tried to awaken my Phi-Brain potential.
Which is precisely why I don't want
anyone to make the same mistake.
I don't want anyone made to feel that way.
Not Kaito, and not myself.
This is the end!
His thought speed is going back to normal.
Looks like he solved the puzzle, huh?
How's Kaito?
He's fine, no injuries.
Thank goodness.
"F?"
No doubt about it.
It's Freecell!
You're saying that he solved it first?
This Puzzle of Fools?
Rook, guide me to another Puzzle of Fools,
a more extreme one!
I made this Puzzle of Fools
when you were still wearing the Armlet of Orpheus.
So the heck what?
You solved it without relying on the Armlet's power.
That's how much stronger you've become.
But I still have to do it.
To stop him, I've gotta get even stronger!
That's right, you have to do it.
I believe.
I believe you can do it.
You freed my mind from the Armlet's spell, Kaito.
Rook...
This time I'll be with you, Kaito.
Mr. Freecell...
You thought if you kept watch on Kaito
you'd find me, didn't you?
Bingo!
My psyche synchronized with the Ring.
And so, I awakened.
The moment I awakened...
I could see so many things.
Many things?
Yes.
That's why I waited for you there today.
I can see everything.
About you,
and what you know.
And the future that...
you and I want.

Sorry, sorry.
Still, you're so cutesy when you're angry.
Oh, you big fool, I'm not listening!
Bada-bing.
Next time, "The Sad Clown"
The Sad Clown
What's wrong, Doubt?
It was a dream?
Okay, let's go to Root Gakuen.
