You must not let go of your dreams
And never turn your gaze away
Yet even still love may cloud up and fade away
And even though you comforted your love
When he was feeling down
Sadness was still weighing down his heavy heart
Hang tight onto your dreams - they're weapons in your arsenal
You'll find that you can get through anything at all
So never cry - you know I will always be watching over you
What I love about you is your strong sense of fairness
So never cry - you know I will always be right there by your side
And so now you can face your future fearlessly
Noa's Big Adventure
Police School- Okutama Branch
This time, lzumi, you'll find I'm not such an easy target!
Remember, Noa, Ota's only good for a blind rush.
Just step out of his way.
Got it.
Side punch!
What are you doing?
Moving like that will burst your actuator!
Shut up! When you're in a fight you have to improvise!
It's only a practice session.
Now you've done it!
How dare you!
Hello, Shinobu.
No, we're only staying seven days.
Keep things under control until then. Bye.
Hey, Goto.
This is pathetic. Are you going to let every session deteriorate like this?
It's realistic.
I give up!
If you keep abusing the Ingrams like this...
we'll never get good measurements.
Measurements?
Movements and stresses under controlled conditions.
Isn't it enough that the Ingram can do what it does?
How can the son of a great entrepreneur ask that?
The boss would cry if he heard such talk.
Cry? My father?
By learning from the Ingrams, we can craft the next generation.
And you used them so brilliantly at Haruumi and the Castle Gate.
My men were very impressed.
Oh, no! He's scratched here, too!
He's scratched all over!
Par for the course in hand-to-hand combat!
You should cry less and practice more!
What's wrong? What's the big sigh for?
Nothing. Ota moved better than I expected him to.
Is that all?
That's all.
I'm all bruised. And after training so hard!
Maybe I'm no good after all.
I wish I could see some positive results.
There!
Hey...
I think you hit it.
Asuma, how'd I do?
See for yourself.
I'd rather have you tell me.
All of them hit the target!
Or the board.
I never even practice, and I'm still pretty good!
Then why don't you use your gun more?
This cannon, inside city limits?
It might be useful, once in a while.
Then this is good enough.
I can't understand her.
What?
She's mad when her machine gets a scratch.
The gun would cut down on her hand-to-hand combat.
It could be worse. Ota's too eager to shoot.
He wastes ammo, so he needs hand-to-hand for a fallback.
More bullets!
Those cartridges are expensive! You need to pace yourself!
But I need more bullets, or this practice is pointless!
We didn't requisition very many...
You done?
Let's see...
Well?
Maybe lzumi is correct to avoid guns. Her accuracy is terrible.
Well if Ota's so great, why doesn't he hit the target more often?
Actually...
Take a look.
He may not hit his opponent's head, but he's pretty good.
Then why does he miss so often?
It's hard to hit a moving target, especially a limb.
This is boring. Next!
For a second, I thought I might be a natural marksman.
Miss lzumi, what are you doing here?
Oh, Hiromi.
You don't look very happy.
Oh, it's nothing. What about you, Hiromi?
Aren't you lonely, taking classes by yourself?
No. Since I can't train as a pilot, I'm learning emergency repairs.
Now I'll be able to help out if you get damaged in a fight.
It sounds like fun!
Well, they said I have a knack for it.
Oh. Congratulations.
What's wrong?
Let me show you again.
I can't pick it up instantly.
I didn't grow up with computers like you, Asuma.
Why are you sulking?
I'd like to continue, but I need dinner, first.
Maybe the restaurant downhill is still open.
Let's draw straws.
No.
I'll go.
Thirty miles per hour over the speed limit!
Could it be? Babylon! Babylon!
I knew it!
20,000 yen! I can see movies, eat fine food, play Patlabor!
What am I talking about! Get going!
And I'm off!
What's keeping Noa?
I was hoping she'd be back before Ota got out of the bath.
Here comes Ota!
Where's Noa?
Ah, nice bath.
This...
This smells like a case!
Is lzumi here or not? Answer me!
Calm down!
Where'd she go at this hour, Asuma?
Well, we were hungry.
She's AWOL! It's a blatant disregard for regulations!
We know! Don't shout!
What's going on?
There was a robbery in Itabashi, and the suspect fled this way.
We think he's heading into the mountains.
It's that car I saw.
Danger
That idiot! She's following the trail upstream?
What if she finds the burglar?
Captain Goto.
HQ is calling. There's no need for a dragnet -
I get it! Just because Second Section is on hand...
we're shanghaied into catching criminals.
Good thing you're always so prepared.
Izumi's an idiot, but she's also a colleague.
Isao Ota will give her attacker the clenched fist ofjustice!
What a nice guy.
Or at least, not a bad guy.
What's with Noa? She isn't the type to run off on her own.
Noa's been acting kind of strange today.
Ouch.
Help me!
Don't be scared. I won't hurt you.
We're splitting into groups. Ota, follow the river upstream.
Shinohara and Yamazaki, take the radio and go with him.
I have to go with this lunkhead?
Who's a lunkhead?
Shinshi, you're with me. We'll look for lzumi's bike.
Well, let's move, people!
Let's go.
I know! You don't have to say it!
Ouch.
I offered to carry your bag.
No, never!
Anything but that!
Suspicious.
Promise not to tell the police about my money!
I can't do that.
How can you be so cruel?
I've got it!
Wait right here!
What if I give you this?
What's that?
You can have more, if you keep quiet!
Don't be an idiot. Let's go.
Okay, how about TWO stacks?
What's that?
I found it in the river. It fell out of your bag, so I'm returning it.
Kids these days are so uptight!
How could lzumi run off like this?
We were so close by!
She should have called us when she spotted the cash!
That undisciplined upstart!
Fine, just keep moving.
I'm only going to say this once!
If those criminals hurt lzumi, I'll beat them to a pulp!
Are you sure you can't keep quiet about the money?
I told you, I can't do that.
And there are bills in the river. I'm sure the police are coming.
You could say you don't know where they came from.
But I DO know.
You're so stubborn! You're as pigheaded as a cop!
I AM a cop.
Who?
Me.
No!
Yes.
This is terrible!
Money doesn't look so fine when you need to hide it.
And what a waste -
Izumi!
Get away from him! He's a burglar!
Burglar?
I'm no burglar!
Enough! That ill-gotten booty under your arm is proof enough!
Captain, we've found lzumi.
Yes, thank you. I can see that.
So how do you explain all this cash?
Ota, don't be so rough!
This guy says he isn't a burglar!
That's true.
Yeah, you burglars are all alike!
What?
They've already captured the burglar. Didn't I mention that?
Captain, we'd appreciate it if you wouldn't treat us so flippantly.
Sorry.
We were really worried about Noa.
Fool! I was simply focused on capturing the criminal.
I could have cared less what happened to lzumi.
I quote: "If those criminals hurt lzumi, I'll beat them to a pulp!"
Oh, that! I'm just concerned about my colleagues.
That was a perfectly acceptable remark.
Right, Captain?
Why are you blushing?
I don't get it.
This whole mess is your fault! Don't you understand that?
What's that about?
All that pressure had to come out somehow.
Officer's room
You know how to handle the paperwork, don't you?
Turn it in tomorrow.
Uh...
What?
Aren't you going to reprimand me?
Oh, yeah.
Try not to get in trouble out of sight of your backup.
That's all.
Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.
You must be cold. Go take a hot bath.
Thanks.
Shinohara?
Did she say anything?
About what?
About tonight! She isn't the type to run off on her own.
I agree.
I'd expect her to run back yelling, "I found money in the river!"
So do you have any idea why she acted the way she did?
Well... I have a suspicion.
I heard there was 50 million yen in that bag.
We should be suspicious of anyone carrying a wad like that!
Maybe he was hiding laundered money, and he slipped.
It's been three minutes.
I think you're right.
Yeah.
Well, I can't help. Anything I said would be taken as an order.
YOU do the counseling.
Me?
She's your partner. This should come from the command car.
Can I ask you one question?
Do you really think that everyone in Division 2 is in the right post?
I don't have to answer that.
Do I look like I'd make a mistake like that?
Why did you want to see me?
When you saw that 10,000 yen bill in the river...
you knew it was a case, didn't you?
Didn't you think about alerting us?
How can I explain it? I had to find the source right away.
I'll try to be more careful next time.
You weren't trying to prove yourself?
What makes you think that?
Long ago at school, there was a benchwarmer for the rugby team.
One game, he got his big chance.
The ball was passed to him, and the field was totally clear.
He thought, "I'm clear!" He never thought of passing.
He ran and ran, but inches from the goal, he was tackled.
His team won, but he went back to being a benchwarmer.
Nice try, kid.
And that was you?
It's the story of someone who misjudged the situation.
Well, maybe I was looking for a little recognition...
but you're all so much better than I am.
"Everyone is in the proper post in Division 2." The Captain said so.
You proved it, when you fought the Black Labor.
You do plenty.
Maybe you're right.
Believe in yourself. Make the best of what you've got.
Asuma...
She's back! She's back!
Who's going to do it?
Do what?
It should be Ota. After all, he's her teammate.
You're right.
What? What?
Presentation of the bouquet.
Forget it!
Quit whining!
Yamazaki, you do it!
What, me?
Good morning, everyone! I'm back.
Do it right, bozo!
Congratulations on your full recovery.
Thank you.
When I looked out, the storm had passed a long time ago.
The morning dew betrays how yesterday's...
sorrows have been washed away.
Dawn is let loose by unbolting the panels of night.
Even machines and the buildings all wake up.
Now I can see so far ahead, an unfolding panorama;
Wherever I watch from, I see a peaceful, happy island.
The thing I want to tell to you, the thing I want to show to you:
The shining gate to our dreams lays open to us...
right now before our eyes.
This story is fiction... but in 10 years, who knows?
If you destroy something, it's OK!
You're insured!
But when you destroy property you have to fill out LOTS of paperwork!
The insurance company has sent an agent to watch over us...
because we've caused SO MUCH damage!
There's a limit to how much you can control!
We really tried to do our best in front of the agent!
Next Time: I'm Selling Peace of Mind. Target, locked on!
