00:05You
00:35Let's go.
01:08Oh, well, this is awkward.
01:14I didn't realize the heist had such a specific dress code.
01:19And here I came in my Easter vest.
01:26What the fuck is that thing?
01:28It's a rabbit?
01:30I don't care what it is.
01:32Kill it.
01:32Oh, there's no need for that, Americans.
01:37The most dependable of your species.
01:40Anything that doesn't fit your narrow understanding, you shoot, bomb, or burn without hesitation.
01:48And look where it's gotten you.
01:51Four so-called soldiers of fortune stealing common stones for a mere 2.5 million.
01:59When there's something right in front of you that is beyond earthly value.
02:05Wait.
02:06How do you know the price we were offered?
02:08I was the one who offered it.
02:20The Force Edge.
02:22Sword of the Demon Knight, Sparta.
02:26Ironic, isn't it, that such a holy place would house the most powerful weapon of hell.
02:32Then again, hell, as you call it, has always been the true heart of human religion.
02:40You can curb the worst of your savageries only through collective fear and hatred of another world.
02:48My world.
02:50You talk a lot for a rabbit.
02:53Take what you want, as long as you still pay Rampart for this operation.
02:57Rest assured, you will be paid for everything you're owed.
03:32Here we stand together on the threshold of a new age.
03:38The age of the demon.
03:41This world is about to become much, much larger.
03:47Well...
03:48Not for you.
03:50Not for you.
04:34Sorry.
04:36Sorry.
04:37Hey!
04:39Excuse me!
04:40Excuse yourself, lady.
04:45Asshole!
05:04Goddammit, Ellie. What now?
05:15You always pick the worst possible time, don't you? If I didn't know better, I'd swear you did this on
05:20purpose.
05:43Please, take me. Don't hurt my tongue.
05:50What, darling?
05:55Hey, look. The Three Stooges came out to play.
06:22Jackpot!
06:35Jackpot!
06:37Never stay alive!
06:41The way this usually goes is I do that, then drop a killer one-liner.
06:45But I'm drawing a complete blank right now. This never happens to me, I swear.
06:50Okay, wait. I got one. Pretend I just shot that guy.
06:53Bang!
06:56Man, Skeletor did not hold up since the 80s.
07:00Not my best work, but you get it.
07:05Um, I don't know how to thank you. You saved our lives.
07:10That is why you're here, right? To save us?
07:14More or less. There have been other attacks in the area. My client hired me to look into it.
07:19Your client? What kind of work do you do, exactly?
07:24Demon hunting.
07:25Wait. You're telling me... they were actually...
07:29What, those guys? Those were just low-level demons.
07:32I'm gonna worry.
07:41Cute kid.
07:43We really should be getting home now. Shouldn't we, Ellie?
07:47Say goodbye to the nice man.
08:03Stop! What are you doing? That's my baby!
08:06No, it's not all...
08:18Dammit.
08:26Give me your ears up...
08:28Go, go, go, go.
08:35Don't you bring my hands down.
08:36Give me what you gonna do now.
08:42Pick as a break out.
08:43Give me what you gonna do now.
08:47Keep Rombi, Rombi, Rombi...
08:49No!
08:49Keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling.
08:56Hey, ladies, hey, fellas, and the people that don't give up.
09:01All the lovers, all the haters, and all the people that call themselves players.
09:06Hot mamas, pimp daddies, and the people rolling up in caddies.
09:11Hey, rockers, hip hoppers, and everybody, everybody, all the world.
09:16I'm out of love, do it now, go back, hands up, now, go back, back up, tell me what you
09:21gonna do now.
09:22Breathe in, now, freeze out, hands up, back up, tell me what you gonna do now.
09:27Keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling.
09:48This is the first image released from last night's Vatican City bombings
09:53that have shocked and horrified the entire world.
09:56The suspect appears to have two strange protrusions on his back
09:59that are shaped almost like wings.
10:04A world in mourning. One question weighs on the minds of all.
10:09Who could be responsible?
10:11The radical left is already using this to push their agenda that America should step
10:15down from our role as quote unquote global policemen.
10:19But as the greatest country on earth, we have a moral responsibility to lead.
10:23Not to mention, the surveillance image clearly shows some sort of weaponized wingsuit.
10:28That is not any US military technology that I know of.
10:31Exactly. With tech like that, it was probably the Russians.
10:36Now, the government, the corporatists that own it, and their loyal propagandists in the news media
10:42want you to blame the Russians. How stupid do they think we are, folks?
10:48This was a strike against God himself, carried out by a sophisticated network of terrorist
10:54demons from hell!
10:59Ah, terrorist demons. I don't... you hear about this? I think I missed that one in Sunday school.
11:06You ever heard of a terrorist demon, Phil?
11:09Sure. My ex-wife.
11:15The attacks were perpetrated by what appears to be a sophisticated network of terrorist demons.
11:20This can't be serious. It makes us look bad enough that our Rampart boys were in there.
11:24Now we're gonna really entertain them.
11:26Dr. Fisher is one of the foremost theoretical physicists in the world. I assure you he is serious.
11:32My apologies, Mr. Vice President.
11:35Let me wrap this around my brain. How can you be sure that these things were...
11:40Demons? The same way that any criminal has identified, Mr. President. My team tested DNA samples from the scene.
11:48And you know what demon DNA looks like?
11:51Demons, since we're using that colloquial term, are a related but separate evolutionary branch from homo sapiens.
11:58They are natives of another universe, one that exists parallel to our own.
12:02My current hypothesis is that one of our common ancestors found their way into this other universe,
12:09where they adapted and became stronger, able to survive the more hostile environment there.
12:14You mean hell. Just to be clear, the hostile environment you're talking about is hell.
12:19Heh heh heh. Mythology exists to explain reality.
12:24Why do you think every culture on Earth tells the same stories about demons and the underworld?
12:31We've discovered an interdimensional rift that acts as a bridge between the two universes.
12:37However, it has been blocked for millennia by a field of quantum interference.
12:42Naturally occurring disruptions in this field sometimes create what one might term
12:47portals, which allow lesser demon types to enter into our world.
12:51Luckily, these portals aren't stable enough to accommodate larger, more complex molecular structures.
12:57Uh-huh. Right.
13:00Which means?
13:01Which means the big demons are stuck on the other side.
13:03Who do you work for exactly, Doctor?
13:09Darkrealm Command. Darkcom, as our PR department insists we call it.
13:13Darkcom is an independent dimensional security firm. Funded by private investments. Such as my own.
13:22Darkrealm Command. Darkcom, as our PR department insists we call it.
13:23Sir, you have to see this.
13:28Sword of the Demon Knight, Sparda.
13:30Sparda? Now that's interesting.
13:33It looks like that sword is all he took.
13:48The gates of hell will be open soon now.
13:52To any sapient wishing, join the celebration.
13:56If you want to get a rabbit, find the hunter.
14:01Hope to see you all there.
14:08My god.
14:10All the last guy I had to worry about was Saddam Hussein.
14:14I already got bio-organic weapons I gotta deal with.
14:18And now you're telling me there's demons crawling up out of hell?
14:22You heard the doctor. This is no longer a matter of religion. It's science.
14:27The word of the Lord has been proven beyond dispute.
14:30Hell is real. And the holy war is here.
14:35If you want to catch a rabbit, find the hunter.
14:38I believe the demon is toying with us, giving us a clue to its next move.
14:42We need to figure out who this hunter is, which can only mean-
14:46A demon hunter.
14:48Find every demon hunter you can, and bring them to me.
14:56What he said.
14:59What he said.
15:00A demon hunter.
15:29Thanks. I need it today.
16:16Get them out of here! Go!
16:19Dante, leaving so soon? We have much to catch up on, brother.
16:25No. You're...dead.
16:35Oh, I'm here. In the flesh!
16:55Oh, you're that demon baby from earlier.
16:57Oh, you're that demon baby.
17:22Amen.
17:23I don't know anything about any of this! I just press up to scare people!
17:33A rabbit demon, huh?
17:35Yeah. Maybe I heard something like that.
17:38Cock!
17:42I know a guy. He's a broker for demon hunters and mercenaries.
17:47A hustler who feeds off the bottom of the bottom feeders.
17:51Last time I saw him, he told me how he'd set up this job for a talking bunny.
17:56I didn't give him much thought, coming from a serial liar and a drunk.
18:01But maybe he was lying.
18:03If we can corroborate this...
18:05It means the White Rabbit was operating here, in New York.
18:09Give me a name!
18:12Enzo Perino!
18:13Go, go, go!
18:14Huh?
18:21Coming through, coming through!
18:22Move it, move it!
18:24Ooh, nice breath!
18:25Ooh, sorry sweetheart!
18:28Ah!
18:29Ah!
18:30Ah!
18:31Ah!
18:31Ah!
18:32Ah!
18:32Ah!
18:32Ah!
18:34Ah!
18:44Ah!
18:44All we thought you should know, I'll tell you anything he asks me about any subject!
18:51Now, let's talk compensation.
18:54Okay?
18:55Ugh.
18:56Do it for free.
18:57You guys should really learn how to negotiate properly.
19:00Tell us about the White Rabbit.
19:02That's what this is about!
19:04Yeah, I know who you mean.
19:06He showed up at my office with a job that needed expediting.
19:10And that didn't seem strange to you.
19:12A six-foot talking rabbit.
19:14Ha!
19:15In my line of work, that's a slow Tuesday.
19:18Some demons making noise over on the west side that he wanted clipped.
19:22Calling too much attention to themselves and whatnot.
19:24Why?
19:25What did it matter to him?
19:27You know, I saw the price he was offering and I must have forgot to ask!
19:31One thing about it that struck me as funny, he had a particular demon hunter he wanted me to hire.
19:36Wouldn't take anyone else!
19:38Who?
19:39Kid named...
19:41Dante!
19:42Ah, sweet kid.
19:45Bit of a troubled past though.
19:47You know how it is.
19:48Dad not around.
19:50Mom and twin brother brutally murdered by demons.
19:53You know, that sort of thing.
19:55Listen.
19:56The White Rabbit told us to find the hunter.
19:59Stands to reason it's the same hunter that the rabbit personally requested.
20:03Dante.
20:04Last name unknown.
20:06Looks like he also works as a standard hired gun.
20:09Oh.
20:10And if half of what I'm reading here is true, his capabilities are extraordinary.
20:15What else do we have on him?
20:16Anything that explains the rabbit's interest?
20:19Hmm.
20:20He's recorded as going AWOL from five separate jobs.
20:24Why?
20:25It just says, uh...
20:27Got bored?
20:28Hm.
20:32And only amig!
20:34Mal!
20:37Even in this...
20:44Woo-hoo!
20:47Dreshing up as my dead brother.
20:49A little bit much. Personally, I'm stuck with being a creepy baby. It was working for you.
21:31You've been trying really hard to steal my necklace. Why is that?
21:37The irony that I'm the shapeshifter and you're the one who doesn't know what you are.
21:59Every time.
22:02I heard a rumor once about demons who are too powerful to cross over.
22:08So, they learned how to project their consciousness into our world and possess stuff, poltergeist style.
22:15You ask me, that's what this white rabbit is.
22:18A possessed kid's toy. Now, from what I sensed, he's way more than just a regular hell-dweller.
22:24I didn't ask.
22:25Look, look, look. That's all I know. If you're after his location, I can't help you. Only saw him the
22:31one time.
22:31We know his location already. A man-sized rabbit can only avoid notice for so long, even in this labyrinth
22:38of sin.
22:39It don't say. So, you sent a team in after him then, huh?
22:43Let me guess. There were no survivors. Only one.
22:54I have an idea. Ask him about the sword, sir.
22:57The sword of Sparda. What do you know about it?
23:00Sparda! Ha! Boy, that takes me back. All I know is the old story.
23:06Sparda was an ancient demon back in the days when the two realms were still joined.
23:11Who sided with humans to fight his own kind. The champion of hell. Until he turned against its king. I
23:17know this story.
23:18What does the sword have to do with it, though?
23:22I'm getting to it!
23:23So, being such a swell guy, Sparda takes it on himself to protect humanity by casting a spell.
23:30Creating a war between the realms, so to speak.
23:33It was the power of his sword, apparently, that let him do it.
23:37With the help of a magic amulet, which he splits in two pieces to make it harder to find.
23:44Ugh. Smells like some millennial bullshit to me.
23:47That's it. Of course.
23:50Look. Look at the sword here. You see that empty slot in the hilt? As though it was meant to
23:54hold something?
23:54I had theorized that the quantum interference blocking the rift between realms was broadcast by some form of transmitter.
24:01Demon technology may look medieval, but their understanding of quantum principles is far more advanced than our own.
24:10This amulet is the transmitter. Each half of it generates one half of the signal.
24:15And Sparda's sword is the decoder.
24:18If one were to bring both halves of the amulet together and place it into the sword, the transmission would
24:23cease.
24:24There would be no more interference. No more war.
24:26The realms would be open to each other without limit.
24:29You're talking about Armageddon?
24:31Yes. You must understand what will happen.
24:35The demon who makes other demons wake up in a cold sweat will be on our doorstep.
24:41We'll throw everything we have at it, only to discover that it's not just him.
24:46It's a world full of them. Our civilization will be overrun.
24:52We won't let it be.
24:54This is Darkom's purpose. This is our divine charge.
24:59To be the last line of defense against the inferno.
25:02Right. Our divine charge.
25:05If the rabbit was after the sword, he must be trying to open the rift, which means he'll also need
25:10the two amulet pieces.
25:13He already has one.
25:15And, uh, not to be an alarmist or anything, he's about to get the other one.
25:19Mr. Sir Vice President? Baines?
25:21Mr. Vice President? Baines, sir?
25:21Anders, from J-Squat. The one who survived.
25:24Ah, good to see you up, soldier.
25:27What did that to your face?
25:29Rabbit claws, sir?
25:31Who let you down here? Why aren't you in the infirmary?
25:34I have extremely sensitive information pertaining to, uh, concerning regards to the end of the world, sir.
25:39I had to deliver it, sir. As in, in person? To your person?
25:44Sir, I heard the rabbit say something after he'd done this.
25:48He was pissed off.
25:49He was furious, sir. He knows where the other half of the amulet is.
25:53And he tried to get it back already. But his plan failed. He's gonna try again. Soon.
25:57His plan? What was the plan?
26:01I don't know. Something about hiring someone for a setup job. Or something.
26:05Whoever it was, that's who has the other piece, sir.
26:12Dante.
26:16Heh.
26:17Woo!
26:23Okay.
26:28Okay.
26:31Okay.
26:34Okay.
26:44Game over!
27:13We are falling, the light is calling, tears inside me, calm me down.
27:29Midnight calling, midst of resolving, crown me with the pure green leaf.
27:44Praise to my Father, blessed by the water, black night, dark sky, the devil's cry.
28:25Praise to my Father, blessed by the water, black night, dark sky, the devil's cry.
29:58You
