00:02:11Since he's your father, I'll let this go
00:02:15But keep him on a leash if he touches one more piece of federal equipment
00:02:19No one will be able to save that little shop of this from going under
00:02:25Dad please this federal contract is our last shot there are people at the factory counting on this money to
00:02:30eat you blow this for me
00:02:31And we're sleeping on the street these are the top of the line mebs
00:02:33Everyone's raving about the sensors are hanging out hydraulics are off balance stick any of them in a real fight
00:02:38and it folds like a tin can
00:02:40What do you know that's cutting-edge Federation design you think they're the same old tanks?
00:02:44You were tinkering with 30 years ago. Go find a corner stay there don't talk don't touch a single thing.
00:02:49Can you do that?
00:02:50That's something
00:02:53If it isn't Luke the parts factory guy not bankrupt yet is this your chief engineer God that cheap greasy
00:02:59smell worse than a wasteland rat Luke
00:03:02You brought this guy what you want everyone to feel like they're in a scrap yard
00:03:06Nice suit real shiny makes me wonder if your mech's built the same way looks good falls apart the second
00:03:12somebody puts a dent in it
00:03:14old man
00:03:15You got a death wish?
00:03:21Dax please let it go. He's my father our shop would never go up against your consortium never
00:03:33Your father Luke I always knew you were just a broke bottom feeder, but I had no idea the blood
00:03:38running through you was this cheap
00:03:40No wonder you showed up with a hunk of scrap iron. You've got a junkyard dad
00:03:48It's called the Libra it's built on our core technology. I
00:03:53Think he's the core technology a geriatric loser Luke just send your old man into the ring to fake an
00:03:59injury
00:03:59Maybe you can squeeze a medical bill out of us
00:04:05Can't stop staring huh old man that's my neon leviathan when the combat test begins my pilot is gonna dismantle
00:04:11your little scrap half one bolt at a time
00:04:13Nice shell
00:04:15High titanium alloy aerospate grade
00:04:18But whoever designed this left the plasma conduction pipe on the right knee completely exposed the outer armor there is
00:04:25less than three millimeters thick
00:04:26You crank this thing up in a real fight core temp spikes that tube burns out ten seconds maybe less
00:04:36Agree stay nobody who spent his whole life sniffing exhaust is out here critiquing Dax's engineering team. I can't breathe
00:04:43Oh
00:04:45Dad, please just shut up. Why can't you just not make everything worse for one relax?
00:04:51We're not gonna lose the live match besides I came because I wanted to introduce you to someone I
00:04:59Heard Elena is gonna be here today. What do you think of her?
00:05:04Your dad isn't just useless. He's delusional a sewer rat like you going after a consortium iris
00:05:26Miss Galloway looks stunning today
00:05:28She would she's the Eden consortiums Harris and the biggest investor in the room ah
00:05:36Miss Galloway. I'm with the Dax consortium
00:05:50Is he here you run the entry list yet?
00:05:53Elena no s-class signal detected in the system. That's not right. I got an encrypted message
00:05:58He's supposed to be here tonight
00:06:00Widen the suite if he doesn't walk through that door this whole billion crawler circus is pointless
00:06:17Yes
00:06:18Dad the neon levarthen is a killing machine the match protocol is locked. I have to go in for the
00:06:24federal contract
00:06:24What's wrong Luke cold feet?
00:06:29A little late for that lose this match and neither you nor junky old man. We'll have anywhere left to
00:06:33go
00:06:34I'm not going anywhere. The ring is a level playing field based on skill Dax. Don't forget that
00:06:45Skill with that oil leaking piece of garbage
00:06:51Son you see her up there go talk to her hell with the bidding that right there saves your factory
00:06:58This old lunatic has never seen the real world Luke talked to miss Galloway seriously Luke your old man's brain
00:07:04is soaked in motor oil
00:07:05You too
00:07:07Scrape in the bottom of the barrel think you can aim that high if miss Galloway so much as glances
00:07:12at you
00:07:12I'll bite a chunk out of this steel column right here
00:07:16Playtime's over
00:07:17Get in your junk box when it's time
00:07:19I'll be watching from the best seat in the house when the neon leviathan splits you and that that thing
00:07:24down the middle
00:07:27Yup
00:07:36Son the match is about start where are you taking me?
00:07:39Where am I taking you out of here?
00:07:43Haven't we embarrassed ourselves enough today?
00:07:50What is wrong with you?
00:07:53You picked a fight with Dax and then, in front of everyone, told me to go after Elena.
00:07:58Did you see the way those people looked at us?
00:08:00Like we crawled out of a sewer.
00:08:02Everything I said was true.
00:08:04The neon lebarathon is full of holes.
00:08:06Do what I tell you and the Libra can't lose.
00:08:09As for that woman...
00:08:10I'm sick of your shit!
00:08:13We haven't paid anyone in two months.
00:08:15The Libras is literally built from garbage I salvaged.
00:08:18Every day I stand there grinning at those consort guys,
00:08:21praying one of them throws me a shitty repair contract just to keep the factory alive.
00:08:25And you, all you do is fix broken junk and live in a fantasy world.
00:08:28You just cut off our last lifeline!
00:08:30Son, as long as I'm here, nothing touches the Libra.
00:08:34Save your breath.
00:08:35Take the money, go home.
00:08:37Whatever goes down in that ring,
00:08:39whatever they do to the Libra, whatever happens to me,
00:08:41that's not your problem.
00:08:43Stay out of it.
00:08:47Go!
00:08:47And don't ever come back to a place like this!
00:08:55Luke,
00:08:56you really don't know your old man at all.
00:09:06Elena, I just pulled the external feed.
00:09:09The exterior sensors picked up an unregistered biological signature.
00:09:15Pull it up.
00:09:40Max!
00:09:41I finally found you.
00:09:43It's an honor, sir.
00:09:44Hey, get up.
00:09:46The ground is dirty and your dress is probably expensive.
00:09:48Don't ruin it.
00:09:49Five years ago you took down an S-Class Beast at the Abyss line and then disappeared.
00:09:53The Federal Military and every major consortium have been looking for you ever since.
00:09:57Getting to see you again, it means everything.
00:10:00I told you, I'm retired.
00:10:03I only came today to keep an eye on my son.
00:10:05I understand.
00:10:07Mr. Barrett, please come with me to the VIP platform.
00:10:09Best view in the arena.
00:10:24Oh, look who's back.
00:10:27Alone?
00:10:28Where's your old man?
00:10:30Does it matter?
00:10:31Probably couldn't face watching his son get cleaned out.
00:10:34Crawled back to whatever hole he came from.
00:10:44Your old man might be crazy, but he did give me an idea.
00:10:46Go say hi to Elena, even after you lose.
00:10:49Maybe if you drag yourself over to the Eden Consortium and grovel at their feet, you'll make it out of
00:10:53this in one piece.
00:10:55Dax, look, Elena's back.
00:11:02Who is that?
00:11:03Miss Galloway herself is escorting him?
00:11:05Look at that security formation.
00:11:07Is he some high-ranking Federation blouse?
00:11:16That has to be somebody important.
00:11:19Go find out who.
00:11:21Shh.
00:11:32Delay the event by five minutes.
00:11:38Elena escorted someone impersonally.
00:11:40Is there someone in the Federation I don't know about?
00:11:42Must be someone on a whole other level.
00:11:45Good thing we're here today.
00:11:52That's enough, Elena.
00:11:54Leave the small stuff to machines.
00:11:55It's an honor just to be in your presence.
00:11:57Handing this off to a machine would be beneath what you deserve.
00:12:00Am I seeing this right?
00:12:02Miss Galloway is personally cleaning that man's boots?
00:12:05I never imagined I'd see a Consortium arrest.
00:12:07Show that kind of reverence for anyone.
00:12:09Who is he?
00:12:10Wait.
00:12:11Dad?
00:12:11Is that you?
00:12:21Dad!
00:12:23What am I looking at?
00:12:25Miss Galloway is shining that junk man's shoes?
00:12:28Tax.
00:12:29Is that crazy old man actually as good as he says?
00:12:35All right, Elena.
00:12:37Get up.
00:12:45Luke.
00:12:47Why are you just standing there?
00:12:48Come up.
00:12:49Me?
00:12:56Elena.
00:12:57This is my son, Luke.
00:12:58His little factory is about to go under.
00:13:00If you've got a hundred million sitting around with nowhere to go, he could use it.
00:13:04Or, hear me out.
00:13:06You two seem like a good match.
00:13:07Spend some time together and see where it goes.
00:13:09Then the contract stays in the family and we skip all this bidding nonsense.
00:13:14Am I hearing things?
00:13:16That old bastard is actually ordering Elena around?
00:13:20It's an honor to meet you, Luke.
00:13:22As for the contract and everything else,
00:13:25I think we should find somewhere quiet to talk.
00:13:27Mr. Barrett, please follow me.
00:13:32No way.
00:13:33This can't be real.
00:13:34Zane, this old man must have saved her life or something.
00:13:36She cares about her reputation more than anything.
00:13:38She's putting on a show because she owes her something.
00:13:40Right, right.
00:13:41She owes him one, so she's making the gesture.
00:13:43As soon as the debt's cleared, this old man is less than nothing again.
00:13:51I'm the presiding judge of this event and a federal colonel.
00:13:55Who the hell are you?
00:13:57And who gave you clearance to sit here?
00:13:59Colonel Stern, that's the mechanic!
00:14:01He slipped up there while Elena was in the back.
00:14:03He's got no credentials, nothing.
00:14:04He just walked right in!
00:14:06I.D. and entry pass.
00:14:08Hand them over.
00:14:09You don't have them.
00:14:11Then I shoot you right here for espionage and impersonation.
00:14:14I.D.?
00:14:15Haven't had one in years.
00:14:17Used it to wipe down my guns.
00:14:20Did you hear that, Colonel Stern?
00:14:22He admit it!
00:14:23He's just a bum who snucked in!
00:14:25No credentials, no entry.
00:14:27You can explain yourself in hell.
00:14:30Take it!
00:14:31I.D.
00:14:35Baxter, get to the Federal Dome in ten minutes.
00:14:38Some clown covered in tin decorations wants to put me down.
00:14:42Excuse me?
00:14:43You just called Supreme Commander General Bax Owens?
00:14:46The leader of the whole goddamn Federation?
00:14:50What's he got something next?
00:14:52That he's Max Barrett, the legendary federal hero?
00:14:55Hold on, Colonel Stern!
00:14:56Don't shoot him yet!
00:14:57Let him finish the show!
00:14:59I want to see if a Supreme Commander actually walks through that door in ten minutes.
00:15:03Fine.
00:15:04Ten minutes.
00:15:06If Commander General Owens doesn't show, I'll personally make you wish you never walked into this arena.
00:15:17Colonel Stern, the Global Hollow Broadcast starts in two minutes.
00:15:21We've got high-level federal investors on standby right now.
00:15:24If the whole Federation watches this old man sitting in the VIP chair, we are done.
00:15:28Shouldn't we clear unauthorized personnel?
00:15:31Two minutes.
00:15:32The ten aren't even up, but I'm done waiting.
00:15:36Honestly, letting a dead man sit there this long was already more patience than he deserved.
00:15:42Show's over.
00:15:44Commander General Owens seems to be lost.
00:15:46No one's coming to save you.
00:15:47Colonel Stern!
00:15:49Colonel Stern!
00:15:49Quit wasting your breath!
00:15:51Break his damn legs already!
00:15:54Drag him out.
00:15:55Any resistance, shoot him on the spot.
00:15:58Don't get blood on that leather.
00:15:59Kids these days, no manners at all.
00:16:04Don't move!
00:16:06Hands up!
00:16:07I'll shoot!
00:16:11I don't have an entry pass.
00:16:14But I do have this.
00:16:18That's his ID.
00:16:20A scorched piece of junk he fished out of a scrap heap?
00:16:22He just basically threw trash at you!
00:16:24Colonel Stern!
00:16:26Assaulting an officer and openly disrespecting the federal military, that's grounds for immediate execution, right?
00:16:31This is a Federation ship of the highest tier.
00:16:34How does a crazy old man have something like this?
00:16:36Serial numbers worn clean off.
00:16:38This is nothing but scrap.
00:16:40That's your big move, old man?
00:16:42Buying yourself a few more seconds with a piece of garbage?
00:16:46Garbage or not, stick it in your military scanner and find out.
00:16:52Unless a federal colonel's too scared to see what comes up.
00:16:55Fine!
00:16:57You want the truth before you die?
00:17:00You've got it!
00:17:01Take that chip and run it through the military scanner on the main console!
00:17:08See?
00:17:09I told you it was junk!
00:17:11Even the scanner can't read it!
00:17:17Federal level zero command detected.
00:17:20Encrypted sequence verified.
00:17:22Authorization confirmed.
00:17:23Initiating unconditional full system takeover.
00:17:41What did you do?
00:17:42Colonel Stern, I'm sorry!
00:17:44Whatever my father did, I'll make it right!
00:17:47I'll pay for everything!
00:17:51Elena!
00:17:53Colonel Stern, I just received an emergency notification from on high!
00:17:57Commander General Owens is quickly and personally leading a formation toward this dome!
00:18:01Estimated arrival, ten minutes!
00:18:05Commander General Owens?
00:18:07The Federation's greatest military commander here?
00:18:09At a commercial bidding event?
00:18:12Wait, didn't that old man just say into that beat-up communicator,
00:18:15get to the Federal dome in ten minutes?
00:18:17Was that actually real?
00:18:18No way!
00:18:19Think about it!
00:18:20A grease-soaked nobody knowing the Supreme Commander?
00:18:23He forged that chip he had to!
00:18:25Triggered the level zero alarm, spooked the whole defense system!
00:18:28Baxter isn't coming for a visit, he's coming to arrest this old fraud!
00:18:31That's exactly what this is!
00:18:34Everyone shut up!
00:18:35He's right!
00:18:36The commander is coming to deal with a traitor!
00:18:38The match countdown, is it time?
00:18:42Then kick off the deathmatch, right now!
00:18:44I want the bidding wrapped up before the commander sets foot in here!
00:18:49When this match is over and the commander arrives,
00:18:52we'll find out exactly what you are!
00:18:58The commander is coming to the commander!
00:19:41You actually thought that rust hat could take a billion credit contract from us go to hell
00:19:55Gotcha
00:20:03Move Libra
00:20:05Move
00:20:24Get Luke out of there
00:20:34Stand down
00:20:35Article 42 of the combat code
00:20:37If the primary pilot is incapacitated and the Meech core is intact
00:20:40A replacement pilot can step in and continue
00:20:43I'm his father
00:20:44I'll finish this fight
00:20:50In this arena, my word as presiding judge is the only word that matters
00:20:55Libra's primary pilot has been ejected and is physically unable to continue
00:20:59This death match is over
00:21:02The Neon Leviathan wins
00:21:15Colonel Stern
00:21:15The military contract bid in two days, I need a guaranteed win
00:21:20Ah, Dax
00:21:21Allow me to congratulate us both on a very productive partnership in advance
00:21:27Arrest this man right now for disrupting the event
00:21:30Pull the defeated pilot off the arena floor too
00:21:32Per security protocol
00:21:34Send them both straight to the underground waste incinerator
00:21:37No ID verification needed
00:21:43Go around
00:21:45No city
00:21:45No city
00:21:47No city
00:21:53No city
00:21:56No city
00:21:58No city
00:21:59No city
00:22:02No city
00:22:03No city
00:22:05No city
00:22:12That's Commander-General Owens' warship!
00:22:28Commander, your timing is perfect.
00:22:31Commander, sir, this mechanic forged a Federal Level Zero command ship and set off the highest-level alarm here.
00:22:36Commander, this individual openly disrespected Federal Military Authority.
00:22:40I was about to order his execution.
00:22:46Commander, please allow me to immediately...
00:22:56Max, sorry I'm late. What are your orders?
00:22:59I just cited Article 42 of the Combat Code and asked to finish this match in my son's place.
00:23:05Vance told me he makes the rules. Understood.
00:23:10Max is correct! Per the code, the match continues!
00:23:15Watch closely. Let me show you what a real mech pilot looks like.
00:23:21Dad, the Libris left arm is gone.
00:23:25Power systems are over 60% damaged.
00:23:41It's a worn-out trash bin. Mine is the latest model. There's no way I'll lose it.
00:23:49Now!
00:23:51Run!
00:23:54Run!
00:23:56Run!
00:23:57Run!
00:24:22The neon leviathan just went down.
00:24:25How is that even possible?
00:24:27In that thing?
00:24:33The live combat vid is over.
00:24:35I'm declaring the Libra the winner.
00:24:38The billion crore in federal military contract is awarded to Luke and his parts factory effective
00:24:43immediately.
00:24:45Dad.
00:24:56Turns out this was a fair fight after all.
00:24:59I figured it was rigged.
00:25:07Good timing.
00:25:08Five more minutes and they'd have been scraping me and my kid out of that incinerator.
00:25:15Max, what are you saying?
00:25:19Max, let me explain.
00:25:21He called himself the presiding judge, but he refused to be fair.
00:25:25He declared the Doxa Consortium the winner by force and ordered the military police to shoot
00:25:30us dead.
00:25:31And this one, the venue manager, decided the smell of my grease was going to ruin somebody's
00:25:37evening and had security drag me out.
00:25:39Mr. Barrick, I apologize for my ignorance.
00:25:42Please, spare me.
00:25:46And there's you, Dax.
00:25:48You rolled in here with a mech that has a fatal design flaw and spent the whole day promising
00:25:52to stomp my son's head in.
00:25:56I'll ask you straight.
00:25:57You really want garbage like that going into the federal arsenal?
00:26:01A federal officer.
00:26:03A venue manager.
00:26:05A consortium bankrolled by federal resources.
00:26:08Together you've built a system here that places itself completely above the federal code.
00:26:13Unacceptable!
00:26:18Commander, I wasn't thinking straight.
00:26:20It was Dax, he forced me.
00:26:22Please, after all my years of service to the Federation.
00:26:28Pull up his transaction records.
00:26:31See how much money you embezzle.
00:26:39Corrupt piece of filth.
00:26:41Strip his rank on the spot.
00:26:43Seize every asset he has.
00:26:45Ship him to Wasteland Radiation Mine 7.
00:26:47Life sentence, hard labor.
00:26:48Don't do this, please!
00:26:50No!
00:26:54Mr. Barrick, I'm sorry!
00:26:56I'm so sorry!
00:26:57I'll gouge my own eyes off, whatever you want!
00:26:59Just please don't send me out there!
00:27:04No!
00:27:16You can't touch me!
00:27:18The Dax Consortium is the third federal fleet's largest energy supplier!
00:27:32By order of the federal supreme commander, effective immediately, all federal cooperation with the Dax Consortium and its subsidiaries is
00:27:42terminated.
00:27:43All financial accounts are to be frozen.
00:27:55Max, please, I'll give you money!
00:27:58The whole consortium, it's yours!
00:28:01Make them stop!
00:28:20All right.
00:28:21If there's nothing else, we're done here.
00:28:31Max, please, wait!
00:28:34Tomorrow night, the Eden Consortium is hosting the Federal Elite Mechanic Gala.
00:28:39Every top mech designer and major heir in the Federation will be there, as well as some people you know.
00:28:45Luke winning a contract this size will make him a target.
00:28:47If you both come, the Eden Consortium will officially announce its strategic alliance with LibraFactory.
00:28:52That announcement is critical for Luke's future.
00:28:58Miss Galloway, that kind of event, I don't belong there.
00:29:03I'm just a lower city mechanic.
00:29:04What do you mean you don't belong?
00:29:07Tomorrow night, we'll be there.
00:29:35After we brief the Eden Consortium chairman today, there's a very good chance we get promoted.
00:29:46What is security even doing?
00:29:48They're letting a lower city scavenger walk straight through the front door.
00:29:51That grease smell is making me sick.
00:29:55Hey, this isn't a junkyard.
00:29:58Get out of here.
00:30:08Identity confirmed.
00:30:09Lead professor of the Federal First Academy, Leo.
00:30:13Welcome.
00:30:18Warning.
00:30:21Unregistered biological signature detected.
00:30:25I'm talking to you, old man.
00:30:27Walk away while you still can.
00:30:31Lower city trash.
00:30:33Security can't read a life form as basic as you.
00:30:38Visitor access activated.
00:30:40Proceed.
00:30:43That's not possible.
00:30:44The recognition module must have glitched.
00:30:47Probably interference from whatever low-grade junk he's carrying.
00:31:04What do you think you're doing?
00:31:07Box caught your dress.
00:31:09Sorry about that.
00:31:10You disgusting wasteland creep.
00:31:12You did that on purpose.
00:31:13You were trying to grab me.
00:31:15Everyone here saw it.
00:31:16You're a predator who crawls around harassing women.
00:31:19You hack your way through security, and then you put your hands on my girl.
00:31:24Old geezer, you are not walking out of this lobby today.
00:31:39A beat-up box that heavy?
00:31:41It's either stolen goods or recording equipment.
00:31:43Open it.
00:31:44Just tools.
00:31:55Really is just tools.
00:31:57Industrial junk.
00:32:05A classified federal cross-star emblem?
00:32:08Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
00:32:16If you're going to impersonate a senior war department mechanic, at least use BCB series.
00:32:22Scrap iron with a gold coat on it.
00:32:25You actually thought you could walk into the Eden compartment with that garbage?
00:32:30Put that down.
00:32:31That toy on your hand can't manage its own heat output.
00:32:39Watch your mouth, old geezer.
00:32:41My gauntlet can handle anything.
00:32:45I'll say it one more time.
00:32:47That cute little toy of yours can't control its own temperature.
00:32:52A toy?
00:32:54Let me show you what a Federal First Academy toy can do to your fake card.
00:33:03Forging federal documents is a serious crime, buddy.
00:33:06But seeing as you're just a filthy scavenger, I'll let you off with a warning.
00:33:10Now take your garbage and get out.
00:33:13What?
00:33:14You deaf or something?
00:33:15You wrinkly piece of shit.
00:33:18Just looking at you makes me want to puke.
00:33:26You're going to pay for what you just did.
00:33:29Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
00:33:32Come on, Chloe.
00:33:33We need to get ready for our briefing with the chairman.
00:33:43Mr. Barrett, I'm Victor, Eden's chief steward.
00:33:45My apologies for the delay.
00:33:47The chairman is en route and has asked me to escort you to the rooftop observatory.
00:33:51In time.
00:33:52You guys need faster elevators here.
00:33:54Lead the way.
00:34:03Please make yourself comfortable.
00:34:04I'll go greet the chairman.
00:34:17Might as well fix this.
00:34:18Not like there's anything else to do.
00:34:27Leo, your hands!
00:34:38That cute little toy of yours can't control its own temperature.
00:34:49Don't touch me!
00:34:50If the chairman sees this, I'll just tell him it's the price I paid for my research.
00:35:03What the hell are you doing here?
00:35:08Third degree thermal backlash.
00:35:10If you hadn't released the locks when you did, the heat would have started boiling your bone marrow.
00:35:14Who wires this itspatient module and the plasma generator into the same circuit?
00:35:19I told you, that thing's design is a joke.
00:35:22You goddamn sewer rat!
00:35:23What gives you the right to sit in that chair?
00:35:25And how did you even make it up here?
00:35:27How'd you get past security?
00:35:32Leo, look at the stuff on that desk.
00:35:34He's dismantling the chairman's things.
00:35:37That's not true.
00:35:38I get it.
00:35:38I was wondering where a low-class scavenger got the guts to forge federal classified material.
00:35:43Turns out you just stole it from here before.
00:35:46You're sure looking pretty smug right now, aren't you?
00:35:49Too bad it's not gonna last.
00:35:51Don't try to sound slick, buddy.
00:35:52I know what this is.
00:35:54You disabled the lobby security matrix, crawled up here through the garbage touch,
00:35:57and came here to steal more of Eden Consortium's core components.
00:36:01Chloe, get everything on camera.
00:36:02Record this thief trashing the chairman's office.
00:36:08Wait!
00:36:13What are you doing?
00:36:14Just creating the perfect crime scene.
00:36:16A lowly wasteland scavenger,
00:36:18violently wrecking the Eden Consortium chairman's private office
00:36:21and stealing classified data on the first generation Titan Corps.
00:36:28Get on your knees, old man.
00:36:30Tell the camera all about how you snuck into the building and trashed this room.
00:36:35And what if I don't?
00:36:36Then you get executed on the spot as an armed and dangerous intruder.
00:36:49You have five seconds to do what I told you.
00:36:53Five.
00:36:55Four.
00:36:57Three.
00:36:58Two.
00:37:11Miss Galloway,
00:37:12the chairman's car boy has entered level negative three through the gravity corridor.
00:37:17I need to go down and meet my grandfather.
00:37:19Victor said your father's at the rooftop observatory.
00:37:21Take the elevator up.
00:37:22I'll bring my grandpa there shortly.
00:37:24All right, I'll go first.
00:37:25See you later.
00:37:50I'll bring my grandpa there.
00:37:55Dad! What's going on?
00:38:02Perfect timing. Take a good look at what your low-life father did.
00:38:08Forging a classified federal emblem.
00:38:11Infiltrating the top floor to destroy Eden Consortium's most valuable equipment.
00:38:15And using a low-grade, homemade explosive device to attack a consortium's senior researcher.
00:38:21You're Luke, right? Your Libra factory got the military contract.
00:38:25Well, guess what? It's null and void now.
00:38:29And that's not all.
00:38:31I'm reporting all this to the Federation.
00:38:34You, your father, and every single one of those bottom-fleeting workers in your factory
00:38:38will be shackled and sent to the high-radiation minefields at the wasteland's edge.
00:38:44You'll be digging underground for the rest of your lives!
00:38:52I told you to wait in the parking lot.
00:38:56I told you not to go wandering off.
00:38:58Why don't you ever listen?
00:39:00Are you trying to cut off the last lifeline we have?
00:39:03The factory workers' livelihoods were dependent on this contract.
00:39:06You owe them all an apology!
00:39:10Luke, don't get so worked up.
00:39:13This isn't the time to turn weak.
00:39:16They're the ones who owe us an apology.
00:39:18If you don't trust me, then stay out of this.
00:39:20You'll only get in the way.
00:39:25See that, old man?
00:39:27Even your own son knows what a hopeless scumbag you are.
00:39:30If you're not going to confess on camera, you can go to hell!
00:39:33Open fire!
00:39:35Blow his damn brains out!
00:39:43Everyone stand down!
00:39:53Everyone stand down!
00:40:00Chairman Galloway!
00:40:02You're here just in time.
00:40:06This scavenging thief snuck into your private office through the garbage duct
00:40:10and started smashing your most precious equipment.
00:40:14But please don't worry.
00:40:16I've activated the security system and am fully prepared to execute him on the spot.
00:40:20I won't let this low-class trash vandalize your office.
00:40:35Chairman Galloway, what are you...
00:40:42Mr. Barrett, I'm deeply sorry to have kept you waiting.
00:40:51Chairman Galloway, I completely understand.
00:40:54You cut off the security mech's power because you were worried
00:40:57their high-energy pulse might damage the equipment here.
00:41:03But, sir, this man is a real threat.
00:41:06You need to have your guards apprehend him immediately.
00:41:11You insolent fool!
00:41:21Chairman Galloway.
00:41:32Eden Consortium welcomes Mr. Barrett.
00:41:36My sincerest apologies.
00:41:39I failed to keep my subordinates in order.
00:41:42Allowing these two to assault you is a crime punishable by death.
00:41:57It's been a while, old friend.
00:42:03It's been a while, old friend.
00:42:20Guess you still haven't wiped off that grease smell yet.
00:42:24Guess you still haven't got yourself a wardrobe, Stylers.
00:42:28What?
00:42:28The Chamlin just hugged that low-class trash?
00:42:37As you can see, the first-gen Titan Corps' energy matrix
00:42:40has reached its breaking point.
00:42:45Without the Titan data card to guide it,
00:42:48Plasma Fire will burn right through the building's foundation.
00:42:53The data card's right here.
00:42:55Your star employee over there just cut it in half.
00:43:00Kale.
00:43:02Cancel their clearances and strip them of their federal citizenship.
00:43:05I don't ever want to see them again.
00:43:10Wait!
00:43:11Chairman Galloway!
00:43:12Sir, please give me one last chance!
00:43:15I can use Dynamic Simulation Simumagics to replace the data card!
00:43:19I can get us out of this crisis.
00:43:28If you can really fix this core,
00:43:31maybe I can convince Cyrus to spare your lives in one piece.
00:43:35Why'd you-
00:43:35Let him handle it.
00:43:43Shit.
00:43:44I don't even know what I'm doing.
00:43:47You're doing it wrong.
00:43:48If you hit Execute now, the core will melt down instantly.
00:43:50I don't need a grease monkey hovering over me
00:43:53and telling me how to handle high-level shit!
00:44:02Critical fault detected.
00:44:05Core pressure exceeds maximum threshold.
00:44:07Core meltdown sequence initiated.
00:44:10Estimated time to building collapse.
00:44:12100 seconds.
00:44:13You fool!
00:44:15You screwed it all up!
00:44:23Impossible.
00:44:25It has to be a hardware problem.
00:44:37Grandpa.
00:44:38Is Eden really gonna go down like this?
00:44:45Don't touch the console!
00:44:47Code interference will accelerate the meltdown!
00:44:53Luke, hand me the data card!
00:44:59Core energy frequency restored to stable level.
00:45:02Meltdown sequence terminated.
00:45:11Piece of cake.
00:45:20Chairman Galloway, this is impossible!
00:45:22My algorithm was flawless!
00:45:23It would never have failed us like this!
00:45:25This whole thing was some kind of crazy aberration!
00:45:29No, Chairman Galloway, I'm Eden's most prized asset!
00:45:33Please give me one more chance!
00:45:35Mr. Barrett, Luke, I messed up!
00:45:37I'm sorry!
00:45:38I'll clean up everything in the room!
00:45:40I'll make up for all the damage we caused!
00:45:43So now you admit you were the ones who trashed my eye office?
00:45:47Strip Leo and Chloe of their second-tier federal citizenship.
00:45:51Seize all assets in their names
00:45:53and send them to work in the wasteland radiation mines.
00:46:01No!
00:46:08I gotta say, Luke,
00:46:11they kinda had that coming.
00:46:15Max,
00:46:16from this moment on,
00:46:17Eden Consortium is officially a strategic partner of LibriFactory.
00:46:21You will now have first priority access for all component supply chains.
00:46:25Consider it a token of Eden Coration's gratitude.
00:46:28What?
00:46:28This...
00:46:29This is a lifesaver!
00:46:32Luke,
00:46:33there's an Elite Mechanic Gala at Fortress 42 tomorrow night.
00:46:37The Federation's finest mech designers
00:46:39and top military parts will be there.
00:46:41We'd like you and Mr. Barrett to attend as allies of Eden.
00:46:46Max,
00:46:47thank God the Federation has you.
00:46:48I don't even want to think about what might have happened otherwise.
00:47:09Dad,
00:47:11I'm sorry.
00:47:12I shouldn't have kicked you out of the bidding event,
00:47:14and I never should have said that all you do is fix broken junk.
00:47:18Everything I learned,
00:47:19I learned it to help you stand tall.
00:47:22From now on,
00:47:23you don't bow down to anyone.
00:47:24Not ever.
00:47:43Well,
00:47:43it isn't the little owner of the Lower City Parts Shop.
00:47:47You think putting on a suit gives you a free pass to mingle with the 1%?
00:48:03God,
00:48:04look at all that mud on his shoes.
00:48:06This floor is aviation-grade alloy.
00:48:08What does he think he's walking through,
00:48:09a Lower City sewer?
00:48:10Van is General Redford's heir.
00:48:12How did security let a rancid wasteland rat get so close to him?
00:48:18We were invited.
00:48:20We have every right to be here.
00:48:22Look at that cheap-ass suit.
00:48:23Spent your whole savings on it, I bet.
00:48:25Wearing that to come ask for handouts at a military fortress,
00:48:27doesn't it strike you as a bit ridiculous?
00:48:34Father.
00:48:35Good evening, everyone.
00:48:37I'm Kane Redford,
00:48:38General and Supreme Commander of the Federal Defense Council.
00:48:41My word is law around here.
00:48:44Letting these Lower City peasants breathe the fortress's filtered air
00:48:47is an extreme waste of federal resources.
00:48:50Everyone step back, keep a 10-yard distance.
00:48:52Who knows what diseases they might be carrying.
00:49:05Anyone care to look at our invitation letter?
00:49:12Take a look.
00:49:13This is the highest level invitation there is,
00:49:15issued by Eden Consortium.
00:49:24Interesting.
00:49:25Check it out, folks.
00:49:26These counterfeits just keep getting better.
00:49:28They're even coating plastic with a light-emitting layer now.
00:49:30If you hadn't let me take a closer look,
00:49:32I might have been fooled.
00:49:33No wonder they got through the door.
00:49:34Tricking security with a fake letter?
00:49:37These frauds need to be shut down now.
00:49:38Eden is all about protecting the social hierarchy.
00:49:41Why would they invite a near-bankrupt parts factory owner and a repairman?
00:49:44This is an insult to the real Elton attendant.
00:49:48The letter's real.
00:49:50Give it back.
00:49:54In Fortress 42,
00:49:56carrying a forged military certificate
00:49:58is intimed to espionage.
00:50:01Van?
00:50:03Destroy the confidant.
00:50:11You said you had an invitation?
00:50:13Well, not anymore.
00:50:30Destroying that invitation means you're directly opposing the wishes of the Federation's top leadership.
00:50:35You'll be stripped of your ranks and expelled from this fortress.
00:50:43No one in the entire Federal Defense Council has the authority to give an order like that.
00:50:47Here in Fortress 42,
00:50:49whatever I say goes.
00:50:53I'll see what Supreme Commander Titus Stone thinks about that.
00:51:01Did he just say Supreme Commander Stone?
00:51:03The Federation's highest authority?
00:51:05Look at what he's holding.
00:51:06Some old artifact that's been out of production for at least 20 years.
00:51:10What a weird flex.
00:51:12You really think waving that piece of strag metal around is going to scare us?
00:51:15And if that's not enough, you're pretending to know the Supreme Commander?
00:51:21Dad, put that away.
00:51:22We're leaving.
00:51:23Right now.
00:51:28Let him dial.
00:51:30Since he claims to know Supreme Commander Stone, let's watch him make the call.
00:51:34If that piece of scrap turns out to be as useless as it looks,
00:51:37I'll have him thrown into our basement incinerator for insulting Federal authority.
00:51:58Titus, I need you at Fortress 42 in 10 minutes.
00:52:04Wake up my bodyguard and cancel all standby assignments.
00:52:08We're heading to Fortress 42.
00:52:1310 minutes.
00:52:14Look, everyone, the grease monkey's got jokes.
00:52:17Probably just called up the junkyard.
00:52:20God, that's some coarse fabric.
00:52:22Before the commander shows up,
00:52:24why don't you explain why you felt entitled to bring the stench of the lower city into this fortress?
00:52:30If Commander Stone doesn't drop out of the sky in 10 minutes,
00:52:34I'm shoving that piece of scrub metal down your son's throat.
00:52:38Every single inch of it.
00:52:40I'd like to see you try.
00:52:47Van, activate the isolation matrix.
00:52:50I don't want our guests having any further contact with these infected organisms.
00:53:13Play the tough guy all you want.
00:53:15Before you know it, you and your father will be learning the true meaning of hell.
00:53:22Jesus!
00:53:23Enough with the boasting.
00:53:24I'm out of patience.
00:53:27Three minutes left.
00:53:28I'm about to use this thing here to crush your communicator and your fingers into dust.
00:53:36Don't touch my father!
00:53:42One more minute.
00:53:46Someone get a biohazard bag ready for when his fingers snap off.
00:53:50We have to keep the metal floor clean.
00:53:51Or just have the cleaning robots toss them out as industrial waste.
00:53:55This is what happens when you go against me.
00:54:08Time's up, father.
00:54:09You two sure do make a pathetic pair.
00:54:11Couldn't conjure the Supreme Commander even when your lives depended on it.
00:54:14Now all that's left for you to do is die.
00:54:25Let him go!
00:54:27Come at me instead!
00:54:38Any last words, old man?
00:54:42Fuck you.
00:55:01Who the hell do you people think you are?
00:55:09Supreme Commander Stone!
00:55:11You've made a personal appearance at Fortress 42.
00:55:15As your subordinate, this is the highest possible honor.
00:55:20Commander Stone!
00:55:22You're here right on time!
00:55:24My son Van and I were about to execute these two lower city commoners
00:55:28for forging their invitations and disturbing Fortress order!
00:55:45Who did you just say you were going to execute?
00:55:50I, Supreme Commander Titus Stone, welcome the Mecha God back to his rightful place.
00:55:57I have failed to keep my reckless subordinates in order.
00:56:02And for that, I await your punishment.
00:56:12It's okay, Titus.
00:56:14I'm just glad you're here.
00:56:28You just said you'd crush my fingers into dust and shove my communicator down my son's throat.
00:56:34We should never have said those things.
00:56:36I made a terrible mistake.
00:56:37Strip Cain and Van Redbro of all ranks and send them to the death row.
00:56:41Isolation Cells on sub-level negative five.
00:56:45Termination will be carried out at dawn!
00:56:56Mr. Barrett!
00:56:57We were blind!
00:56:58We acted like a bunch of ignorant fools!
00:57:00Please, show us some mercy!
00:57:02We never should have spoken out of turn!
00:57:04Just say the word and I'll transfer every corn mine asset in my name to your son as compensation!
00:57:14You're all right, Luke?
00:57:26Maximum level alert!
00:57:28S-Class biological essities detected approaching the fortress at high speed.
00:57:46All personnel, listen to orders.
00:57:51Fire!
00:58:01Follow me!
00:58:02The escape pod only holds two!
00:58:04They can die here for all we care!
00:58:11Luke, today your old man is going to teach you to pilot a mech.
00:58:24Titan, initiate protocol.
00:58:30Fortress AI, fingerprint match confirmed.
00:58:35Blood flow rate and heart rate verification passed.
00:58:39Restrictions lifted.
00:58:47Ready?
00:59:07Father, can we actually get out of here?
00:59:09I activated the fortress high-level emergency system.
00:59:12Every entrance, exit and blast door is now locked.
00:59:16All the people in the hall, they're the perfect bait.
00:59:19While the beast is busy tearing them to pieces, we'll be making our escape!
00:59:26Dad!
00:59:27That asshole Kane locked every single door in the fortress!
00:59:31Did he really think that was going to stop us?
00:59:33I didn't know it was going to stop us.
00:59:36Hold on tight, Luke.
00:59:38Take him aside a minute.
00:59:43Alright, here we go!
00:59:45Ignition!
00:59:46Full speed!
00:59:49AHHHHH!
00:59:51AHHHHH!
00:59:53AHHHHH!

01:00:02AHHHHH!
01:00:03AHHHHH!
01:00:03AHHH!
01:00:29High energy strike coming at 60 degrees to the right.
01:00:32Concentrate shield energy to the right arm.
01:01:15Good bye everyone!
01:01:28Oh my god.
01:01:30Now Luke.
01:01:41Fire!
01:01:53Fire!

01:02:15Fire!
01:02:15Fire!
01:02:20Let's go.
01:02:50All hail the Mechagod.
01:02:52All hail the Mechagod.
01:03:05So dad, you really are the Mechagod.
01:03:17You did good, kid.
01:03:18This Mech's all yours now.
01:03:20Take good care of it.
