00:00:18Go to hell, ugly son of a bitch.
00:00:27Good work, Max. These people couldn't stop a beast of that tier without you.
00:00:31Now I need you in Sector 4. Some noble's energy refinery is leaking. Go handle it.
00:00:37I built these mechs to protect people, not babysit some rich prick's money.
00:00:41You're refusing a direct federal order? That's desertion!
00:00:43I'm old anyway. Time for me to retire. Find someone else to do your dirty work.
00:01:06Who the hell let you in here? You're a grease monkey from the lower city.
00:01:10You have any idea what that terminal is worth? And you just broke it!
00:01:20Knowing some cheap tricks doesn't get you a seat at this table.
00:01:24Get this grease-soaked bum out of my event!
00:01:28I'm not having him track oil on our guest's shoes.
00:01:34Dad? What are you doing here?
00:01:42Luke, you're telling me this grease-covered wreck is your father?
00:01:46Yes, I'm so sorry. My father, uh, he had a head injury and gets confused thinking he's back in his
00:01:51old repair factory.
00:01:52Total accident. I'll get him out of here right now.
00:01:55Dad! Are you insane? This is a federal fleet event. They could kill us anytime they wanted. Put the wrench
00:02:01away.
00:02:02I just fixed it. The damn thing was about to blow. Would have taken half the room with it.
00:02:08Since he's your father, I'll let this go. But keep him on a leash.
00:02:13If he touches one more piece of federal equipment, no one will be able to save that little shop of
00:02:18his from going under.
00:02:22Dad, please. This federal contract is our last shot. There are people at the factory counting on this money to
00:02:27eat.
00:02:27You blow this for me and we're sleeping on the street.
00:02:29These are the top-of-the-line mebs everyone's raving about.
00:02:32The sensors are hanging out. Hydraulics are off balance.
00:02:34Stick any of them in a real fight and it folds like a tin can.
00:02:37What do you know? That's cutting-edge Federation design.
00:02:40You think they're the same old tanks you were tinkering with 30 years ago?
00:02:42Go find a corner. Stay there. Don't talk. Don't touch a single thing.
00:02:46Can you do that?
00:02:47Ha. That's something.
00:02:50If it isn't Luke, the parts factory guy. Not bankrupt yet? Is this your chief engineer?
00:02:55God, that cheap, greasy smell. Worse than a wasteland rat. Luke, you brought this guy?
00:03:00What, you want everyone to feel like they're in a scrapyard?
00:03:03Nice suit. Real shiny. Makes me wonder if your mech's built the same way.
00:03:07Looks good. Falls apart the second somebody puts a dent in it.
00:03:11Old man, you got a death wish?
00:03:18Dax, please. Let it go. He's my father. Our shop would never go up against your consortium. Never.
00:03:29Your father? Luke, I always knew you were just a broke bottom feeder, but I had no idea the blood
00:03:35running through you was this cheap.
00:03:37No wonder you showed up with a hunk of scrap iron. You've got a junkyard, Dad.
00:03:45It's called the Libra. It's built on our core technology.
00:03:49I think he's the core technology. A geriatric loser.
00:03:53Luke, just send your old man into the ring to fake an injury. Maybe you can squeeze a medical bill
00:03:57out of us.
00:04:01Can't stop staring, huh, old man? That's my neon leviathan.
00:04:05When the combat test begins, my pilot is going to dismantle your little scrap half one bolt at a time.
00:04:10Nice shell. High titanium alloy. Aerospace grade.
00:04:15But whoever designed this left the plasma conduction pipe on the right knee completely exposed.
00:04:21The outer armor there is less than three millimeters thick.
00:04:24You crank this thing up in a real fight, core temp spikes, that tube burns out.
00:04:28Ten seconds. Maybe less.
00:04:33A grease-stained nobody who spent his whole life sniffing exhaust is out here critiquing Dax's engineering team? I can't
00:04:40breathe!
00:04:42Dad, please, just shut up! Why can't you just not make everything worse for once?
00:04:47Relax. We're not going to lose the live match.
00:04:49Besides, I came because I wanted to introduce you to someone.
00:04:55I heard Elena's going to be here today. What do you think of her?
00:05:01Your dad isn't just useless, he's delusional.
00:05:04A sewer rat like you going after a consortium iris?
00:05:23Miss Galloway looks stunning today.
00:05:25She would. She's the Eden Consortium's Harris, and the biggest investor in the room.
00:05:32Ah, Miss Galloway. I'm with the Dax Consortium.
00:05:47Is he here? You run the entry list yet?
00:05:50Elena, no S-Class signal detected in the system.
00:05:53That's not right. I got an encrypted message. He's supposed to be here tonight.
00:05:57Widen the suite. If he doesn't walk through that door, this whole billion-crawler circus is pointless.
00:06:14Dad, the Neon Levarthen is a killing machine. The match protocol is locked. I have to go in for the
00:06:20federal contract.
00:06:22What's wrong, Luke? Cold feet?
00:06:26A little late for that. Lose this match and neither you nor Junky Old Man will have anywhere left to
00:06:30go.
00:06:31I'm not going anywhere. The ring is a level playing field based on skill, Dax. Don't forget that.
00:06:40Skill? With that oil-leaking piece of garbage?
00:06:48Son, you see her up there? Go talk to her. Hell with the bidding, that right there saves your factory.
00:06:55This old lunaturk has never seen the real world. Luke talked to Miss Galloway? Seriously?
00:06:59Luke, your old man's brain is soaked in motor oil.
00:07:02You too. Scraping the bottom of the barrel? Think you can aim that high?
00:07:07If Miss Galloway so much as glances at you, I'll bite a chunk out of this steel column right here.
00:07:13Playtime's over. Get in your junk block when it's time.
00:07:16I'll be watching from the best seat in the house when the Neon Leviathan splits you and at that thing
00:07:20down the middle.
00:07:21Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:07:33Son, the match is about to start. Where are you taking me?
00:07:36Where am I taking you?
00:07:38Out of here! Haven't we embarrassed ourselves enough today?!
00:07:47What is wrong with you?!
00:07:50You picked a fight with Dax and then in front of everyone
00:07:53Told me to go after Elena
00:07:54Did you see the way those people looked at us?
00:07:57Like we crawled out of a sewer
00:07:59Everything I said was true
00:08:00The neon lebarathon is full of holes
00:08:03Do what I tell you and the Libra can't lose
00:08:06As for that woman
00:08:07I'm sick of your shit
00:08:10We haven't paid anyone in two months
00:08:12The Libras is literally built from garbage I salvaged
00:08:15Every day I stand there grinning at those consort guys
00:08:17Praying one of them throws me a shitty repair contract
00:08:20Just to keep the factory alive
00:08:21And you all you do is fix broken junk
00:08:23And live in a fantasy world
00:08:25You just cut off our last lifeline
00:08:27Son, as long as I'm here
00:08:29Nothing touches the Libra
00:08:30Save your breath, take the money, go home
00:08:33Whatever goes down in that ring
00:08:35Whatever they do to the Libra
00:08:37Whatever happens to me, that's not your problem
00:08:39Stay out of it
00:08:43Go!
00:08:44And don't ever come back to a place like this
00:08:51Luke
00:08:53You really don't know your old man at all
00:09:03Elena
00:09:04I just pulled the external feed
00:09:06The exterior sensors picked up an unregistered biological signature
00:09:12Pull it up
00:09:37Max, I finally found you
00:09:40It's an honor, sir
00:09:41Hey, get up
00:09:42The ground is dirty and your dress is probably expensive
00:09:45Don't ruin it
00:09:45Five years ago you took down an S-class beast at the Abyss line and then disappeared
00:09:49The Federal Military and every major consortium have been looking for you ever since
00:09:53Getting to see you again, it means everything
00:09:57I told you, I'm retired
00:09:59I only came today to keep an eye on my son
00:10:02I understand
00:10:03Mr. Barrett, please come with me to the VIP platform
00:10:06Best view in the arena
00:10:22Oh, look who's back
00:10:24Alone?
00:10:25Where's your old man?
00:10:27Does it matter?
00:10:28Probably couldn't face watching his son get cleaned out
00:10:31Crawled back to whatever hole he came from
00:10:40Your old man might be crazy, but he did give me an idea
00:10:43Go say hi to Elena
00:10:44Even after you lose
00:10:45Maybe if you drag yourself over to the Eden Consortium and grovel at their feet
00:10:49You'll make it out of this in one piece
00:10:52Jax, look, Elena's back
00:10:58Who is that?
00:11:00Miss Galloway herself is escorting him?
00:11:02Look at that security formation
00:11:03Is he some high-ranking Federation blass?
00:11:13That has to be somebody important
00:11:15Go find out who
00:11:29Delay the event by five minutes
00:11:35Elena's escort someone in person
00:11:37Is there someone in the Federation I don't know about?
00:11:39Must be someone on a whole other level
00:11:41Good thing we're here today
00:11:49That's enough, Elena
00:11:50Leave the small stuff to machines
00:11:51It's an honor just to be in your presence
00:11:53Handing this off to a machine would be beneath what you deserve
00:11:56Am I seeing this right?
00:11:58Miss Galloway is personally cleaning that man's boots?
00:12:01I never imagined I'd see a Consortium arrest
00:12:04Show that kind of reverence for anyone
00:12:05Who is he?
00:12:07Wait
00:12:07Dad?
00:12:08Is that you?
00:12:17Dad?
00:12:20What am I looking at?
00:12:22Miss Galloway is shining that junk man's shoes?
00:12:25Dax
00:12:26Is that crazy old man actually as good as he says?
00:12:32Alright, Elena
00:12:33Get up
00:12:42Luke
00:12:43Why are you just standing there?
00:12:45Come up
00:12:45Me?
00:12:53Elena
00:12:53This is my son, Luke
00:12:55His little factory is about to go under
00:12:57If you've got a hundred million sitting around with nowhere to go
00:13:00He could use it
00:13:01Or
00:13:01Hear me out
00:13:02You two seem like a good match
00:13:04Spend some time together and see where it goes
00:13:06Then the contract stays in the family and we skip all this bidding nonsense
00:13:11Am I hearing things?
00:13:12That old bastard is actually ordering Elena around?
00:13:17It's an honor to meet you, Luke
00:13:19As for the contract
00:13:20And everything else
00:13:21I think we should find somewhere quiet to talk
00:13:23Mr. Barrett
00:13:25Please, follow me
00:13:29No way
00:13:29This can't be real
00:13:31Zane, this old man must have saved her life or something
00:13:33She cares about her reputation more than anything
00:13:35She's putting on a show because she owes her something
00:13:37Right, right
00:13:37She owes him one
00:13:38So she's making the gesture
00:13:39As soon as the debt's clear
00:13:40And this old man is less than nothing again
00:13:48I'm the presiding judge of this event
00:13:50And a federal colonel
00:13:51Who the hell are you?
00:13:53And who gave you clearance to sit here?
00:13:56Colonel Stern, that's the mechanic
00:13:57He slipped up there while Elena was in the back
00:13:59He's got no credentials, nothing
00:14:00He just walked right in
00:14:03ID and entry pass
00:14:04Hand them over
00:14:05You don't have them
00:14:07Then I shoot you right here for espionage and impersonation
00:14:11ID?
00:14:12Haven't had one in years
00:14:13Used it to wipe down my guns
00:14:17Did you hear that, Colonel Stern?
00:14:19He admit it!
00:14:20He's just a bum who snucked in
00:14:21No credentials, no entry
00:14:23You can explain yourself in hell
00:14:26Take it
00:14:32Baxter get to the federal dome in ten minutes
00:14:34Some clown covered in tin decorations wants to put me down
00:14:38Excuse me?
00:14:40You just called Supreme Commander General Bax Owens?
00:14:43The leader of the whole goddamn federation?
00:14:47What's he got something next?
00:14:49That he's Max Barrett, the legendary federal hero?
00:14:51Hold on, Colonel Stern, don't shoot him yet
00:14:54Let him finish the show
00:14:55I want to see if a Supreme Commander actually walks through that door in ten minutes
00:15:00Fine, ten minutes
00:15:02If Commander General Owens doesn't show
00:15:05I'll personally make you wish you never walked into this arena
00:15:14Colonel Stern, the global hollow broadcast starts in two minutes
00:15:17We've got high-level federal investors on standby right now
00:15:20If the whole federation watches this old man sitting in the VIP chair
00:15:23We are done
00:15:24Shouldn't we clear unauthorized personnel?
00:15:28Two minutes
00:15:29The ten aren't even up
00:15:30But I'm done waiting
00:15:33Honestly, letting a dead man sit there this long
00:15:35Was already more patience than he deserved
00:15:39Show's over
00:15:40Commander General Owens
00:15:42Seems to be lost
00:15:43No one's coming to save you
00:15:44Colonel Stern!
00:15:45Quit wasting your breath!
00:15:48Break his damn legs already!
00:15:50Drag him out
00:15:51Any resistance, shoot him on the spot
00:15:54Don't get blood on that leather
00:15:56Kids these days
00:15:57No manners at all
00:16:01Don't move!
00:16:02Hands up!
00:16:04I'll shoot!
00:16:07I don't have an entry pass
00:16:10But I do have this
00:16:15That's his ID?
00:16:16A scorched piece of junk he fished out of a scrap heap?
00:16:19He just basically threw trash at you!
00:16:21Colonel Stern!
00:16:22Assaulting an officer and openly disrespecting the federal military
00:16:25That's grounds for immediate execution, right?
00:16:28This is a federation ship of the highest tier
00:16:30How does a crazy old man have something like this?
00:16:33Serial numbers worn clean off
00:16:35This is nothing but scrap
00:16:37That's your big move, old man?
00:16:39Buying yourself a few more seconds with a piece of garbage?
00:16:43Garbage or not
00:16:45Stick it in your military scanner and find out
00:16:48Unless a federal colonel's too scared to see what comes up
00:16:52Fine
00:16:54You want the truth before you die?
00:16:56You've got it!
00:16:57Take that chip and run it through the military scanner on the main console
00:17:04See?
00:17:05I told you it was junk
00:17:07Even the scanner can't read it
00:17:13Federal level zero command detected
00:17:16Encrypted sequence verified
00:17:18Authorization confirmed
00:17:19Initiating unconditional full system takeover
00:17:37What did you do?
00:17:39Colonel Stern, I'm sorry
00:17:41Whatever my father did
00:17:42I'll make it right
00:17:44I'll pay for everything
00:17:47Elena
00:17:49Colonel Stern
00:17:51I just received an emergency notification from on high
00:17:54Commander General Owens is
00:17:55Quickly and personally leading a formation toward this dome
00:17:58Estimated arrival
00:17:59Ten minutes
00:18:01Commander General Owens?
00:18:03The Federation's greatest military commander here?
00:18:06At a commercial bidding event?
00:18:08Wait
00:18:09Didn't that old man just say into that beat up communicator
00:18:11Get to the federal dome in ten minutes?
00:18:13Was that actually real?
00:18:15No way
00:18:15Think about it
00:18:16A grease-soaked nobody knowing the supreme commander?
00:18:19He forged that chip he had to
00:18:21Triggered the level zero alarm
00:18:23Spooked the whole defense system
00:18:24Baxter isn't coming for a visit
00:18:26He's coming to arrest this old fraud
00:18:28That's exactly what this is
00:18:30Everyone shut up!
00:18:32He's right
00:18:33The commander is coming to deal with a traitor!
00:18:35The match countdown
00:18:36Is it time?
00:18:38Then kick off the deathmatch
00:18:40Right now!
00:18:41I want the bidding wrapped up before the commander sets foot in here
00:18:45When this match is over and the commander arrives
00:18:48We'll find out exactly what you are
00:18:52We're standing in here
00:18:54κ±°'er
00:19:06We're trying to hate
00:19:09We're trying to Ρ Touchdown
00:19:13We're trying to host the cube
00:19:17We are trying to carga
00:19:37You actually thought that rust hat could take a billion credit contract from us?
00:19:42Go to hell!
00:19:50No!
00:19:52Gotcha!
00:19:59Move, Libra!
00:20:01Move!
00:20:20Get Luke out of there!
00:20:30Stand down!
00:20:32Article 42 of the combat code, if the primary pilot is incapacitated and the Meech core
00:20:37is intact, a replacement pilot can step in and continue.
00:20:40I'm his father.
00:20:41I'll finish this fight.
00:20:46In this arena, my word as presiding judge is the only word that matters.
00:20:52Libra's primary pilot has been ejected and is physically unable to continue.
00:20:56This deathmatch is over.
00:20:59The Neon Leviathan wins.
00:21:11Colonel Stern, the military contract bid in two days, I need a guaranteed win.
00:21:16Ah, Dax.
00:21:18Allow me to congratulate us both on a very productive partnership in advance.
00:21:24Arrest this man right now for disrupting the event.
00:21:27Pull the defeated pilot off the arena floor too.
00:21:29Per security protocol, send them both straight to the underground waste incinerator.
00:21:34No ID verification needed.
00:21:41Go.
00:21:41Don't move.
00:22:05It's the only thing that's possible.
00:22:06There is a new one right there!
00:22:09That's Commander General Owens' warship!
00:22:24Commander, your timing is perfect.
00:22:28Commander, sir, this mechanic forged a Federal Level Zero command ship and set off the highest level alarm here.
00:22:33Commander, this individual openly disrespected Federal Military Authority.
00:22:37I was about to order his execution.
00:22:42Commander, please allow me to immediately...
00:22:52Max, sorry I'm late. What are your orders?
00:22:56I just cited Article 42 of the Combat Code and asked to finish this match in my son's place.
00:23:02Vance told me he makes the rules. Understood.
00:23:06Max is correct! Per the code, the match continues!
00:23:11Watch closely. Let me show you what a real mech pilot looks like.
00:23:17Dad, the Libris left arm is gone.
00:23:21Power systems are over 60% damaged.
00:23:38It's a worn-out trash bin. Mine is the latest model. There's no way I'll lose it.
00:23:52It's a worn-out trash bin. Mine is the latest model. There's no way I'll lose it.
00:24:18The Neon Leviathan just went down.
00:24:22How is that even possible?
00:24:23In that thing?
00:24:29The live combat bid is over.
00:24:32I'm declaring the Libra the winner.
00:24:34The Billion Crohn Federal Military Contract is awarded to Luke and his parts factory effective immediately.
00:24:41Dad.
00:24:53Turns out this wasn't fair fight after all. Figured it was rigged.
00:25:03Good timing. Five more minutes and they'd have been scraping me and my kid out of that incinerator.
00:25:11Max, what are you saying?
00:25:15Max, let me explain.
00:25:17He called himself the presiding judge, but he refused to be fair.
00:25:22He declared the Doxa Consortium the winner by force and ordered the military police to shoot us dead.
00:25:28And this one, the venue manager, decided the smell of my grease was going to ruin somebody's evening and had
00:25:34security drag me out.
00:25:36Mr. Barrett, I apologize for my ignorance. Please, spare me.
00:25:43And there's you, Dax.
00:25:44You rolled in here with a mech that has a fatal design flaw and spent the whole day promising to
00:25:49stomp my son's head in.
00:25:52I'll ask you straight. You really want garbage like that going into the federal arsenal?
00:25:57A federal officer. A venue manager. A consortium bankrolled by federal resources.
00:26:04Together, you've built a system here that places itself completely above the federal code.
00:26:10UNACCEPTABLE!
00:26:14Commander! I wasn't thinking straight! It was Dax! He forced me!
00:26:18Please! After all my years of service to the Federation!
00:26:24Pull up his transaction records. See how much money you embezzle.
00:26:35Corrupt piece of filth. Strip his rank on the spot.
00:26:40Seize every asset he has. Ship him to Wasteland Radiation Mine 7.
00:26:43Life sentence, hard labor.
00:26:45Don't do this, please!
00:26:46No!
00:26:51Mr. Barrett, I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I'll gouge my own eyes off whatever you want!
00:26:55Just please don't send me out there!
00:27:12You can't touch me. The Dax Consortium is the third federal fleet's largest energy supplier!
00:27:29By order of the federal supreme commander, effective immediately, all federal cooperation with the Dax Consortium and its subsidiary is
00:27:38terminated.
00:27:39All financial accounts are to be frozen.
00:27:52Max, please! I'll give you money! The whole consortium, it's yours! Make them stop!
00:27:59Stop!
00:28:16Alright. If there's nothing else, we're done here.
00:28:27Max! Please, wait!
00:28:31Tomorrow night, the Eden Consortium is hosting the Federal Elite Mechanic Gala.
00:28:35Every top mech designer and major heir in the Federation will be there.
00:28:38As well as some people you know.
00:28:41Luke winning a contract this size will make him a target.
00:28:43If you both come, the Eden Consortium will officially announce its strategic alliance with LibraFactory.
00:28:49That announcement is critical for Luke's future.
00:28:54Ms. Galloway, that kind of event, I don't belong there. I'm just a lower city mechanic.
00:29:00What do you mean you don't belong?
00:29:03Tomorrow night, we'll be there.
00:29:31After we brief the Eden Consortium chairman today, there's a very good chance we get promoted.
00:29:42What is security even doing? They're letting a lower city scavenger walk straight through the front door.
00:29:47That grease smell is making me sick.
00:29:51Hey, this isn't a junkyard. Get out of here.
00:30:04Identity confirmed. Lead professor of the Federal First Academy, Leo. Welcome.
00:30:14Warning.
00:30:17Unregistered biological signature detected.
00:30:21I'm talking to you, old man. Walk away while you still can.
00:30:28Lower city trash. Security can't read a life form as basic as you.
00:30:35Visitor access activated. Proceed.
00:30:39That's not possible.
00:30:41The recognition module must have glitched. Probably interference from whatever low-grade junk he's carrying.
00:31:00What do you think you're doing?
00:31:04Box caught your dress. Sorry about that.
00:31:06You disgusting wasteland creep!
00:31:08You did that on purpose! You were trying to grab me!
00:31:11Everyone here saw it!
00:31:12You're a predator who crawls around harassing women!
00:31:16You hack your way through security, and then you put your hands on my girl.
00:31:21Old geezer, you are not walking out of this lobby today.
00:31:35A beat-up box that heavy? It's either stolen goods or recording equipment open.
00:31:40Just tools.
00:31:50Huh.
00:31:51Really is just tools.
00:31:53Industrial junk.
00:32:02A classified Federal Cross Star emblem?
00:32:04Hahahaha.
00:32:13If you're going to impersonate a Senior War Department mechanic at least use BCB series.
00:32:18Scrap iron with a gold coat on it?
00:32:21You actually thought you could walk into the Eden compartment with that garbage?
00:32:26Put that down. That toy on your hand can't manage its own heat output.
00:32:30it. Watch your mouth, old geezer. My gauntlet can handle anything. I'll say it one more
00:32:42time. That cute little toy of yours can't control its own temperature. A toy? Let me
00:32:51show you what a Federal First Academy toy can do to your fake card. Forging Federal
00:33:00documents is a serious crime, buddy. But seeing as you're just a filthy scavenger, I'll let
00:33:05you off with a warning. Now take your garbage and get out. What, you deaf or something? You
00:33:12wrinkly piece of shit. Just looking at you makes me want to puke. You're gonna pay for
00:33:24what you just did. Come on, Chloe. We need to get ready for our briefing with the chairman.
00:33:39Mr. Barrett, I'm Victor, Eden's chief steward. My apologies for the delay. The chairman is
00:33:44en route and has asked me to escort you to the rooftop observatory in time. You guys need
00:33:49faster elevators here. Lead the way. Please make yourself comfortable. I'll go greet the chairman.
00:34:13might as well fix this. Not like there's anything else to do.
00:34:23Leo, your hands!
00:34:34That cute little toy of yours can't control its own temperature.
00:34:45Don't touch me! If the chairman sees this, I'll just tell him it's the price I paid for
00:34:51my research. What the hell are you doing here? Third degree thermal backlash. If you hadn't
00:35:07released the locks when you did, the heat would have started boiling your bone marrow. Who
00:35:11wires this itspatient module and the plasma generator into the same circuit? I told you,
00:35:16that thing's design is a joke. You goddamn sewer rat! What gives you the right to sit in that chair?
00:35:21And how did you even make it up here? How'd you get past security?
00:35:28Leo, look at the stuff on that desk. He's dismantling the chairman's things.
00:35:33That's not true. I get it. I was wondering where a low-class scavenger got the guts to forge
00:35:37federal classified material. Turns out you just stole it from here before.
00:35:42You're sure looking pretty smug right now, aren't you? Too bad it's not gonna last.
00:35:47Don't try to sound slick, buddy. I know what this is. You disabled the lobby security matrix,
00:35:52crawled up here through the garbage touch, and came here to steal more of Eden Consortium's
00:35:56core components. Chloe, get everything on camera. Record this thief trashing the chairman's office.
00:36:04Wait!
00:36:09What are you doing?
00:36:10Just creating the perfect crime scene. A lowly wasteland scavenger,
00:36:14violently wrecking the Eden Consortium chairman's private office,
00:36:17and stealing classified data on the first generation Titan Corps.
00:36:24Get on your knees, old man. Tell the camera all about how you snuck into the building and trashed this
00:36:30room.
00:36:31And what if I don't?
00:36:33Then you get executed on the spot as an armed and dangerous intruder.
00:36:45You have five seconds to do what I told you. Five, four, three, two!
00:37:07Miss Galloway, the chairman's car boy has entered level negative three through the gravity car at all.
00:37:13I need to go down and meet my grandfather. Victor said your father's at the rooftop observatory.
00:37:17Take the elevator up. I'll bring my grandpa there shortly.
00:37:20Alright, I'll go first. See you later.
00:37:28Three!
00:37:33Two!
00:37:36Two!
00:37:37Two!
00:37:45Dad!
00:37:51Dad!
00:37:52What's going on?
00:37:58Perfect timing. Take a good look at what your lowlife father did.
00:38:04FORGING A CLASSIFIED FEDERAL EMBLEM, INFILTRATING THE TOP FLOOR TO DESTROY EDEN CONSORTIAN'S MOST VALUABLE EQUIPMENT, AND USING A LOW
00:38:12-GRADE HOMEMADE EXPLOSIVE DEVICE TO ATTACK A CONSORTIAN SENIOR RESEARCHER.
00:38:18YOU'RE LUKE, RIGHT? YOUR LIBRA FACTORY GOT THE MILITARY CONTRACT. WELL, GUESS WHAT? IT'S NULL AND VOID.
00:38:25AND THAT'S NOT ALL. I'M REPORTING ALL THIS TO THE FEDERATION. YOU, YOUR FATHER, AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE
00:38:33BOTTOM FLEETING WORKERS IN YOUR FACTORY WILL BE SHACKLED AND SENT TO THE HIGH RADIATION MINEFIELDS AT THE WASTELAND'S EDGE.
00:38:40YOU'LL BE DIGGING UNDERGROUND FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIVES.
00:38:48I TOLD YOU TO WAIT IN THE PARKING LOT. I TOLD YOU NOT TO GO WANDERING OFF. WHY DON'T YOU
00:38:55EVER LISTEN? ARE YOU TRYING TO CUT OFF THE LAST LIFELINE WE HAVE?
00:38:59THE FACTORY WORKERS' LIVELIHOODS WERE DEPENDENT ON THIS CONTRACT. YOU OWE THEM ALL AN APOLOGY.
00:39:06LUKE, DON'T GET SO WORKED UP. THIS ISN'T THE TIME TO TURN WEAK.
00:39:12THEY'RE THE ONES WHO OWE US AN APOLOGY. IF YOU DON'T TRUST ME THEN STAY OUT OF THIS. YOU'LL
00:39:17ONLY GET IN THE WAY.
00:39:22SEE THAT, OLD MAN? EVEN YOUR OWN SON KNOWS WHAT A HOPELESS SCUMBAG YOU ARE. IF YOU'RE NOT GONNA CONFESS
00:39:27ON CAMERA, YOU CAN GO TO HELL! OPEN FIRE! BLOW HIS DAMN BRAINS OUT!
00:39:39EVERYONE STAND DOWN!
00:39:49EVERYONE STAND DOWN!
00:39:57CHAIRMAN GALLOWAY! YOU'RE HERE JUST IN TIME!
00:40:02THIS SCAVENGING THIEF SNUCK INTO YOUR PRIVATE OFFICE THROUGH THE GARBAGE DUCK AND STARTED SMASHING YOUR MOST PRECIOUS EQUIPMENT!
00:40:10BUT PLEASE DON'T WORRY! I'VE ACTIVATED THE SECURITY SYSTEM AND AM FULLY PREPARED TO EXECUTE HIM ON THE SPOT!
00:40:16I WON'T LET THIS LOW CLASS TRASH VANDALIZE YOUR OFFICE!
00:40:31CHAIRMAN GALLOWAY! WHAT ARE YOU...
00:40:38CHAIRMAN GALLOWAY!
00:40:39PLEASE!
00:40:43CHAIRMAN GALLOWAY!
00:40:47CHAIRMAN GALLOWAY!
00:40:48CHAIRMAN GALLOWAY I-I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND, YOU CUT OFF THE SECURITY MEX POWER BECAUSE YOU WERE WORRIED,
00:40:53their high-energy pulse might damage the equipment here.
00:40:59But, sir, this man is a real threat.
00:41:02You need to have your guards apprehend him immediately.
00:41:07You insolent fool!
00:41:17Chairman Calloway.
00:41:28The Eden Consortium welcomes Mr. Barry.
00:41:32My sincerest apologies.
00:41:35I failed to keep my subordinates in order,
00:41:38allowing these two to assault you as a crime punishable by death.
00:41:53It's been a while, old friend.
00:42:15I guess you still haven't wiped off that grease smell yet.
00:42:20I guess you still haven't got yourself a wardrobe, Stylers.
00:42:24What?
00:42:24The Chamlin just hugged that low-class trash?
00:42:32As you can see,
00:42:34the first-gen Titan Core's energy matrix
00:42:36has reached its breaking point.
00:42:41Without the Titan data card to guide it,
00:42:44Plasma Fire will burn right through the building's foundation.
00:42:49The data card's right here.
00:42:51Your star employee over there just cut it in half.
00:42:56Kale,
00:42:58cancel their clearances and strip them of their federal citizenship.
00:43:01I don't ever want to see them again.
00:43:06Wait!
00:43:07Chairman Calloway!
00:43:08Sir, please give me one last chance!
00:43:11I can use Dynamic Simulation Simumagics
00:43:13to replace the data card!
00:43:15I can get us out of this crisis.
00:43:24If you can really fix this core,
00:43:27maybe I can convince Cyrus to spare your lives in one piece.
00:43:31Why'd you-
00:43:31Let him handle it.
00:43:39Shit.
00:43:40I don't even know what I'm doing.
00:43:43You're doing it wrong.
00:43:44If you hit Execute now,
00:43:45the core will melt down instantly.
00:43:46I don't need a grease monkey hovering over me
00:43:49and telling me how to handle high-level shit!
00:43:59Critical fault detected.
00:44:00Core pressure exceeds maximum threshold.
00:44:03Core meltdown sequence initiated.
00:44:06Estimated time to build and collapse.
00:44:08100 seconds.
00:44:09You fool!
00:44:11You screwed it all up!
00:44:19Impossible.
00:44:21It has to be a hardware problem.
00:44:33Grandpa,
00:44:34is Eden really going to go down like this?
00:44:41Don't touch the console!
00:44:43Code interference will accelerate the meltdown!
00:44:49Luke, hand me the data card!
00:44:55Core energy frequency restored to stable level.
00:44:58Meltdown sequence terminated.
00:45:07Piece of cake.
00:45:16Chairman Galloway, this is impossible!
00:45:18My algorithm was flawless!
00:45:19It would never have failed us like this!
00:45:21This whole thing was some kind of crazy aberration!
00:45:25No, Chairman Galloway, I'm Eden's most prized asset.
00:45:28Please give me one more chance!
00:45:31Mr. Barrett, Luke, I messed up!
00:45:33I'm sorry!
00:45:34I'll clean up everything in the room.
00:45:36I'll make up for all the damage we caused.
00:45:38So now you admit you were the ones who trashed my eye office?
00:45:43Strip Leo and Chloe of their second-tier federal citizenship.
00:45:47Seize all assets in their names and send them to work in the wasteland radiation mines.
00:46:04I gotta say, Luke, they kinda had that coming.
00:46:11Max, from this moment on, Eden Consortium is officially a strategic partner of Libra Factory.
00:46:17You will now have first-priority access for all component supply chains.
00:46:21Consider it a token of Eden Coration's gratitude.
00:46:24What?
00:46:24This...
00:46:24This is a lifesaver!
00:46:28Luke, there's an Elite Mechanic Gala at Fortress 42 tomorrow night.
00:46:33The Federation's finest mech designers and top military parts will be there.
00:46:37We'd like you and Mr. Barrett to attend as Allies of Eden.
00:46:42Max, thank God the Federation has you.
00:46:45I don't even want to think about what might have happened otherwise.
00:47:06Dad, I'm sorry.
00:47:08I shouldn't have kicked you out of the bidding event,
00:47:10and I never should have said that all you do is fix broken junk.
00:47:14Everything I learned, I learned it to help you stand tall.
00:47:18From now on, you don't bow down to anyone.
00:47:20Not ever.
00:47:39Well, it isn't the little owner of the Lower City Parts Shop.
00:47:43You think putting on a suit gives you a free pass to mingle with the 1%?
00:47:59God, look at all that mud on his shoes.
00:48:02This floor is aviation-grade alloy.
00:48:04What does he think he's walking through, a Lower City sewer?
00:48:06Van is General Redford's heir.
00:48:08How did security let a rancid wasteland rat get so close to him?
00:48:14We were invited.
00:48:16We have every right to be here.
00:48:17Look at that cheap-ass suit.
00:48:19Spent your whole savings on it, I bet.
00:48:20But wearing that to come ask for handouts at a military fortress,
00:48:23doesn't it strike you as a bit ridiculous?
00:48:30Father.
00:48:31Good evening, everyone.
00:48:33I'm Kane Redford, General and Supreme Commander of the Federal Defense Council.
00:48:37My word is law around here.
00:48:40Letting these Lower City peasants breathe the fortress's filtered air
00:48:43is an extreme waste of federal resources.
00:48:46Everyone step back, keep a ten-yard distance.
00:48:48Who knows what diseases they might be carrying.
00:49:01Anyone care to look at our invitation letter?
00:49:08Take a look.
00:49:09This is the highest level invitation there is, issued by Eden Consortium.
00:49:19Interesting.
00:49:21Check it out, folks.
00:49:22These counterfeits just keep getting better.
00:49:23They're even coating plastic with a light-emitting layer now.
00:49:26If you hadn't let me take a closer look, I might have been fooled.
00:49:29No wonder they got through the door, tricking security with a fake letter.
00:49:33These frauds need to be shut down now.
00:49:34Eden is all about protecting the social hierarchy.
00:49:37Why would they invite a near-bankrupt parts factory owner and a repairman?
00:49:40This is an insult to the real Elton attendant.
00:49:44The letter's real.
00:49:46Give it back.
00:49:49In Fortress 42, carrying a forged military certificate is intimidate to espionage.
00:49:57Van, destroy the counter.
00:50:07You said you had an invitation?
00:50:09Well, not anymore.
00:50:26Destroying that invitation means you're directly opposing the wishes of the Federation's top leadership.
00:50:31You'll be stripped of your ranks and expelled from this fortress.
00:50:35Stripped of our ranks?
00:50:37Expelled from the fortress?
00:50:39No one in the entire Federal Defense Council has the authority to give an order like that.
00:50:44Here in Fortress 42, whatever I say goes.
00:50:49I'll see what Supreme Commander Titus Stone thinks about that.
00:50:57Did he just say Supreme Commander Stone?
00:50:59The Federation's highest authority?
00:51:01Look at what he's holding.
00:51:02Some old artifact that's been out of production for at least 20 years.
00:51:06What a weird flex.
00:51:07Do you really think waving that piece of strag metal around is going to scare us?
00:51:11And if that's not enough, you're pretending to know the Supreme Commander?
00:51:16Dad?
00:51:17Put that away.
00:51:18We're leaving.
00:51:19Right now.
00:51:23Let him dial.
00:51:26Since he claims to know Supreme Commander Stone, let's watch him make the call.
00:51:30If that piece of scrap turns out to be as useless as it looks,
00:51:33I'll have him thrown into our basement incinerator for insulting Federal authority.
00:51:54Titus, I need you at Fortress 42 in 10 minutes.
00:52:00Wake up my bodyguard and cancel all standby assignments.
00:52:03We're heading to Fortress 42.
00:52:0910 minutes.
00:52:10Look, everyone.
00:52:11The grease monkey's got jokes.
00:52:13Probably just called up the junkyard.
00:52:16God, that's some coarse fabric.
00:52:18Before the commander shows up, why don't you explain why you felt entitled to bring the stench of the lower
00:52:24city into this fortress?
00:52:26If Commander Stone doesn't drop out of the sky in 10 minutes,
00:52:29I'm shoving that piece of scrub metal down your son's throat.
00:52:34Every single inch of it.
00:52:36I'd like to see you try.
00:52:42Van, activate the isolation matrix.
00:52:45I don't want our guests having any further contact with these infected organisms.
00:53:09Play the tough guy all you want.
00:53:11Before you know it, you and your father will be learning the true meaning of hell.
00:53:18Jesus!
00:53:18Enough with the boasting.
00:53:20I'm out of patience.
00:53:22Three minutes left.
00:53:24I'm about to use this thing here to crush your communicator and your fingers into dust.
00:53:32Don't touch my father!
00:53:38One more minute!
00:53:42Someone get a biohazard bag ready for when his fingers snap off.
00:53:45We have to keep the metal floor clean.
00:53:47Or just have the cleaning robots toss them out as industrial waste.
00:53:51This is what happens when you go against me.
00:54:04Time's up, father.
00:54:04You two sure do make a pathetic pair.
00:54:07Couldn't conjure the supreme commander even when your lives depended on it.
00:54:10Now all that's left for you to do is die.
00:54:21Land!
00:54:22Let him go!
00:54:23Come at me instead!
00:54:34Any last words, old man?
00:54:38Fuck you.
00:54:57Who the hell do you people think you are?
00:55:05Supreme Commander Stone, you've made a personal appearance at Fortress 42.
00:55:10As your subordinate, this is the highest possible honor.
00:55:16Commander Stone, you're here right on time.
00:55:19My son Van and I were about to execute these two lower city commoners for forging their invitations and disturbing
00:55:26Fortress order.
00:55:41Who did you just say you were going to execute?
00:55:45I, Supreme Commander Titus Stone, welcome the Mechagod back to his rightful place.
00:55:53I have failed to keep my reckless subordinates in order.
00:55:57And for that, I await your punishment.
00:56:08It's okay, Titus.
00:56:09I'm just glad you're here.
00:56:18Commander Stone, I didn't know.
00:56:20I genuinely didn't know he was...
00:56:24You just said you'd crush my fingers into dust and shove my communicator down my son's throat.
00:56:29We should never have said those things.
00:56:31I made a terrible mistake.
00:56:33Strip Cain and Van Redbril of all ranks and send them to the death row isolation cells on sub-level
00:56:39negative five.
00:56:41Termination will be carried out at dawn.
00:56:42Termination will be carried out at dawn.
00:56:51Mr. Barrett, we were blind.
00:56:54We acted like a bunch of ignorant fools.
00:56:56Please, show us some mercy.
00:56:58We never should have spoken out of turn.
00:57:00Just say the word and I'll transfer every corn mine asset in my name to your son as compensation.
00:57:10You alright, Luke?
00:57:22Maximum level alert.
00:57:23S-Class Biological Essides detected approaching the fortress at high speed.
00:57:42All personnel, listen to orders.
00:57:47Fire!
00:57:57Follow me.
00:57:58The escape pod only holds two.
00:58:00They can die here for all we care.
00:58:05Luke.
00:58:07Today your old man's gonna teach you to pilot a mech.
00:58:18Titan.
00:58:20Initiate protocol.
