The 23rd Annual Kamchatka Motor Show
A new model that Pegasus Corporation is proud to release, the F-19A.
The newly developed AB8600 motor...
has increased its output power...
1.32 times more than the previous model.
It's fast!
The next car will be even faster.
That must be your childhood friend, Millie.
Yes.
Although, she's looks rather waifish, she has great driving skill.
Enjoy it.
Next up is a new model released by the Albatross Corporation.
The A-1, notice it's smooth performance and quick acceleration!
Take a look at this!
Millie.
Episode 8 The Speeding
ICU -1 Orthopedics ward - 2
I can't just stay here and take it easy!
I said it's no problem.
Just think of it as taking a vacation for a couple of days.
Just calm down.
What are you talking about, Chief? The competition starts very soon!
Hey, I'm telling you to relax.
Long time no see.
Shizuka.
You're looking good.
I guess so.
Although, it wasn't like I'm completely unhurt.
A competition for a new type of hover car?
That's right.
A new model car from Albatross...
that we developed might be able to become...
the official hover car of the Ocean Agency.
The Ocean Agency?
That means it would be considered the best hover car.
Maia.
The big hover car manufacturer...
Pegasus Corporation, is our rival company at the competition.
If we want our car to be picked, we have to win in the test competition.
Oh, I see.
But, since the test driver became injured...
Do you have any other substitute drivers?
No, we don't have any.
What?
There were so many accidents like yesterday's, that happened recently.
All the drivers quit except Millie.
Of course I'm very disappointed, too.
After all, I'm the chief engineer who developed that hover car.
But I don't think there are many drivers around who have a Class-A license.
Well...
I have it.
I mean the Class-A license.
It was the requirement for employment at Ocean Agency.
But I guess it has nothing to do with this.
I'm sorry.
That might be great.
So, they made Maia a substitute driver?
Yes.
They didn't make that decision very seriously.
The chief of the development project team loved her.
He said Maia would be perfect.
I think that guy's eyes need to be checked.
Well, since you've already accepted the job...
you should follow through to the end.
Is Maia the only driver they have?
Yes.
Then, you must demand a lot of money.
The New Model from Albatross Corporation
Crashes Again?!
Is it just an accident? A spy? Or an industrial war?
Great! Great! My judgment will never be wrong.
OK, Maia! Speed up!
Yes!
The machine is slowing down.
What's causing it?
I can't tell.
Maia, what's wrong?
Hey! Can anyone bring a damp cloth?
I need some air-freshener too! Spray it down a lot!
Oh, no.
I've never expected that I have to clean up vomit.
Hey, cheer up!
We only have five more days to the race.
Five more days? That's a lot.
You don't have time to be depressed.
Be strong! You're the only driver here.
Just do your best.
Yes, I'll do my best.
You shouldn't get so tense. Just relax.
Yes.
Pushing too hard.
No, I'm not pushing too hard.
She's pushing too hard.
She never cries, no matter how much of a hard time she gets.
She always acts as cheerful as she can.
I'm sure she's the one who's having the most difficult time now.
Hey, look at this.
What's wrong?
She's lucky.
If she had continued driving, she would have blown up with the car.
It's strange.
I just replaced it with a new one this morning.
Everyone, please get back to work!
Watching TV doesn't make us any money.
We are working now.
Oh! This is...!
Well, the cleavage here is very good.
Why don't you work?!
Look.
She's getting better, like a real driver.
I guess she's pretty quick to learn.
Not yet!
If she doesn't reach the 3 second range...
she won't beat Pegasus. Right, chief?
Oh...? Yes, that's right.
Thank you, Ms. Maia. Let's stop practicing for today.
Excuse me, but can I try one more lap?
Let me practice a little more!
I think I'm almost getting the hang of it.
Three, two, one. Start!
The shift change should be done smoothly.
Keep the machine stable, and enter the sea-surface course.
Hold down the machine when it starts to shake...
and approach the first corner.
Shift gears 100 meters before a buoy.
That's too fast.
You shouldn't rush to shift gears before the corner.
Yes.
Well, then let's start again from the point when you go through the corner.
Yes!
Well, try not to rush to shift gears.
Wait it until the very last second before cornering.
After that?
After I get out of the corner, quickly shift gears...
and enter the underwater course.
What do you have to be careful in there?
The impact of entering the water.
Yes, and then?
I have to be cautious about the ocean current...
and adjust the position accurately.
Be careful to avoid obstacles in the water.
The ocean current is rough in the craggy areas.
Put enough distance between the rocks and your car.
Now you enter the sea-surface course.
Don't put too much force on the machine while you're surfacing.
The resistance will change when you come up to the surface.
Don't panic and approach the corner.
And move to the land course.
The speed tends to become faster than the water course...
so be careful on the cornering.
Hold the car tight against the side G-forces.
Follow the line tightly and enter the straightaway course.
Keep it in top gear and fully accelerate.
400 meters more!
300 meters! 200 meters! 100 meters!
Finish line!
Millie!
Well, that wasn't so bad.
Do you think so?
Show me your hand.
That's my goddess of fortune.
I was saved every time I got into accident, because of it.
But, this is...
Can you drive with it for me?
Yes, I'll do my best.
This is not what we agreed.
Are you trying to make that car enter the competition?
Anyway, you have to make sure to crash the test car this time.
If you fail it, I'll cancel the deal to go to work for us.
Right. If you have to, show them the Smile of Venus.
What is the Smile of Venus?
Can you tell me more? And the story of this head-hunting deal.
No Visitors Allowed
I guess he won't regain consciousness...
No Visitors Allowed
for at least a couple of days.
Why don't you try not using your full strength for once?
But he pulled out his gun.
Well, since we can't get to know the secret mole...
in the Albatross corporation...
I did...!
He did it!
This is great!
Well, thank you very much, people of the Pegasus Corporation.
Next company up is the Albatross Corporation. Please stand by.
Yes!
The only thing I can say is the usual phrase.
Do your best! I'm sure you can do it.
Yes.
Maia.
Come with me.
Yes.
Their lap time seems excellent. Do you think she can beat them?
The machine has gotten much more powerful since then, and she seems...
to have made a good lap time on the image training last night.
I think she can handle it.
The image training?
What's happening on your side? Did you find any suspects?
No, not at all.
How about your side?
Nothing is happening.
I see. Keep scouting around.
And don't have Gloria loaf on the job. Understand?
Roger!
Excuse me...
Don't you have to let Maia know about the mole?
I don't want her to have an accident, worrying about it.
Albatross Corporation, five minutes before start.
Excuse me.
Is anything wrong?
No problem! Everything is all right.
I'm just doing the final check.
Just make a wild dash to the finish line, Ms. Maia.
- Finish with a boom!
- I envy him. He's always positive.
Albatross Corporation, one minute to start.
The tree planted by the water bears fruit when the time comes...
its leaves never wither...
it brings prosperity to all things where it grows.
Ten seconds to start.
The first lap. Time lag is 0.5 seconds.
She failed at the start.
She's entering the first corner!
Shit! Too wide of a turn on the corner.
The difference is now 2.5 seconds.
Maia seems like hesitating.
Maia, don't stick with the mistakes of the past.
Concentrate on the matters ahead of you.
Yes.
Well, then what do you have to be careful about next?
The impact when I enter the underwater course.
Right.
You'll win if you don't forget about what you did yesterday.
Yes.
Now, go!
Watch out for the ocean current, and adjust your position.
Watch out for obstacles in the water.
The ocean current becomes rough in the craggy area.
Don't get too close to the rocks when you pass.
The third lap! Only a 1.5 second difference.
She's closing the gap! She might do it.
She finished the fourth lap. The difference is just 0.5 seconds.
She can do it! I think she mightjust do it!
The resistance will change when you come up to the surface.
Don't panic when entering the corner.
The fifth lap! She's ahead by 0.1 seconds now!
We did it!
Maia, keep going just like that!
Go! Go! Go on and go boom!
I have the Smile of Venus with me!
I see. So you were the mole.
Chief?
What is it?
Do you think I'd just leave all of you here? Don't worry.
I'll take everyone to the Pegasus Corporation with me.
Before that, let's shoot off the fireworks to celebrate our new job!
The Smile of Venus.
You mean, is that...?
I already set it. It's a bomb.
It's all her fault.
I thought she would have given up much earlier.
But she stuck with us for too long.
The countdown for the bomb began when the race started.
When the car crosses the finish line, the bomb will go "boom!"
Oh, don't worry, if she'd stop the car, it'll also go "boom."
Anyway, if I don't crash it, they won't take me into their company.
If I were to remain here...
my talents will be wasted!
How dare you hit me?
I'll never let you destroy our dream!
Where's the bomb?! Where is it?!
Above the control unit in the engine.
Give me the blueprint!
It's here.
But how can we save her?
If we can't stop the car, there's no way!
We still have a way.
Why the hell did you do that?!
You're needed.
Maia, can you hear me?
Yes?
Listen!
No matter what happens, never stop the car!
Do you understand?
What happened?
Oh, no. Nothing happened at all.
I guess something happened.
What?! A bomb?!
Anyway, you just have to drive to the finish line as fast as you can.
We'll take care of the rest of it.
No! No! No! No! No! No!
I don't want to die like this!
- I still have so many things I want to do!
- Maia!
Why do I always end up like this?!
Maia, calm down.
Please trust us.
Millie.
I'm going to drive with you.
Ready? Let's go.
Yes.
We're all waiting for you at the finish line.
How are you doing? Do you think you can make it?
Humph! Who do you think I am?
I got it!
Remember! Your only worth is shooting.
Shut up! You're distracting me!
We won.
It can't be.
Maia!
Great job.
I'm really tired.
Oh, I think this is a real goddess of fortune.
Right? I was sure it would protect you, too.
Maia!
You did greatjob, Maia.
Hooray for Albatross!
Let's toss her into the air!
Let's go!
Oh, wait a second.
I'm the one who saved the day.
Let's go.

This is Maia.
Millie is such a cool person.
I admire her very much.
By the way, who was that lady in the photo?
Grandpa?
Gloria, what are you doing in a place like this?
Don't sleep in the middle of the street!
Gloria!
Hang on! Gloria!
