1. Feeling a lil' antsy there, Julio?
Copy !req
2. No way!
Copy !req
3. You're the one Wakako sicced on us, right?
Copy !req
4. Heard you're David's fan.
Copy !req
5. Yeah! But what do you mean
she sicced me on you?
Copy !req
6. Hear that, David?
Copy !req
7. You have fans now.
Probably 'cause you got all swole.
Copy !req
8. Where's your gun?
Copy !req
9. What do you use?
Copy !req
10. Uh, I've got a Lexington.
Copy !req
11. That won't cut it.
Copy !req
12. You gonna go up
against Maelstrom with that?
Copy !req
13. Use this.
Copy !req
14. Seriously, dude? A fucking Satara!
Copy !req
15. Nova! Thanks, man!
Copy !req
16. Tech shotguns are so cool.
Copy !req
17. Charge-up shots, oh yeah…
Copy !req
18. Boom!
Copy !req
19. Boom!
Copy !req
20. Boom!
Copy !req
21. Knock it off!
Copy !req
22. Ow! Stop! Watch the knees!
Copy !req
23. What are you, five?
Copy !req
24. Just stick behind me. Don't rush ahead.
Copy !req
25. You want me to take rear?
I ain't no rookie, man.
Copy !req
26. Attention, ladies.
Copy !req
27. One minute from the destination.
Copy !req
28. Looks like they're heading in the front.
Copy !req
29. Clearly. Meatbrain move!
Copy !req
30. The fuck?
Copy !req
31. Who ordered lunch meat?
Copy !req
32. Ya little babies lost?
Copy !req
33. Looks like they wanna start something.
Copy !req
34. You got shit in your ears?
Copy !req
35. Better start talking before
I drill you a fresh earhole—
Copy !req
36. Better stop talking before you die.
Copy !req
37. Tagging complete. Short circ incoming…
Copy !req
38. Done! Close-call but made it, asshole!
Copy !req
39. Fuck! They've got a netrunner!
Copy !req
40. Ahh! We're all gonna die!
Copy !req
41. Come on!
Copy !req
42. Out of ammo!
Copy !req
43. Bitch got no juice!
Copy !req
44. Fuck her up!
Copy !req
45. Time for… the big guns!
Copy !req
46. There's a turret!
Copy !req
47. Watch out! The runner's got control of—
Copy !req
48. Damn brat, ordering me around…
Copy !req
49. Ready to play with a real Maelstrom?
Copy !req
50. Oh, damn…
Copy !req
51. That shit even human?
Copy !req
52. Gimme that organic ass…
Copy !req
53. And I'll tear you a new hole!
Copy !req
54. You're the one getting a new hole.
Copy !req
55. That was insane! …Zoot-zoot-zoot, bang!
Copy !req
56. Those your new leg implants? Looking good.
Copy !req
57. Got it! Room in the back, right?
Copy !req
58. Wait! Julio!
Copy !req
59. If there are traps…
Copy !req
60. Isabella Morgan, where you at?
Copy !req
61. Your dad put out an SOS for you.
Copy !req
62. You're safe now.
Copy !req
63. Thank ya kindly.
Copy !req
64. Thanks for taking the wheel, Falco.
Copy !req
65. No sweat off my back.
Copy !req
66. Nah, good drivers are hard to come by.
Copy !req
67. Dunno about that.
Seems you got a fan club now.
Copy !req
68. You mean like Julio?
Copy !req
69. I knew that gonk was bluffing
the moment I saw him.
Copy !req
70. Aren't many veterans who'd work with
a kid like me unless they knew Maine.
Copy !req
71. Gotta admit, first time you called,
Copy !req
72. I thought you were a pushy pipsqueak.
Copy !req
73. But now? Well…
Copy !req
74. You're gonna go further
than Maine ever could.
Copy !req
75. Gonna roll out before this gets all sappy.
Copy !req
76. Buzz me for your next big gig, huh?
Copy !req
77. Catch you later, David. Kiwi.
Copy !req
78. See ya.
Copy !req
79. Bye.
Copy !req
80. Honestly? I doubted you had it
in you to take the reins.
Copy !req
81. All thanks to our preem runner.
Copy !req
82. We both know you don't mean me.
Copy !req
83. You've asked her, right?
Copy !req
84. Used to. I kinda gave up trying.
Copy !req
85. Didn't peg her as the type
to get cold feet.
Copy !req
86. I bet it's more than
what happened to Maine and Dorio.
Copy !req
87. Back at the warehouse,
Lucy was acting weird.
Copy !req
88. Meaning what?
Copy !req
89. Whole thing's kind of a blur.
Might've been nothing.
Copy !req
90. Speaking of, you're the one
that brought Lucy into the crew, right?
Copy !req
91. Yeah.
Copy !req
92. She talk to you about her past?
Copy !req
93. Nope.
Copy !req
94. Most of the saps in our league
don't bring up the old days.
Copy !req
95. Shame, greed,
something to prove… whatever.
Copy !req
96. Whether you're looking for a way out
or a way up, does it matter?
Copy !req
97. Why the long face, David?
Copy !req
98. Stop flirting with the nagging hag
and dance with me!
Copy !req
99. Although some edgerunners die
in more shame than they started with…
Copy !req
100. At least I didn't get flatlined
by a psycho with his dick out in the wind.
Copy !req
101. Anyway, have you ever seen
David dance? It's a riot…
Copy !req
102. Sorry, I'm heading out.
Gonna stop by Doc's.
Copy !req
103. Wha? Again?
Copy !req
104. Tell him to sell you
a dance chip or something!
Copy !req
105. - A real good one!
- Shut up.
Copy !req
106. Catch ya later.
Copy !req
107. Why you gotta play
hard-to-get all the time?
Copy !req
108. Why don't you shake up your approach?
Copy !req
109. Yeah?
Copy !req
110. Think I should play shy and nerdy…
at the shy and nerdy?
Copy !req
111. This warped piece of metal's just
shoved up your arm socket.
Copy !req
112. It doesn't fit you in the first place.
Copy !req
113. On top of that, it's an old model.
Copy !req
114. Got all kinds of next-gen chrome out back…
Copy !req
115. I'm fine with this one.
Copy !req
116. Tsk. Fine. It's your funeral.
Copy !req
117. Got muscle reinforcers?
Kiroshi's new model?
Copy !req
118. Didn't know I was talking to
a tweaked out chromehead.
Copy !req
119. I'm not.
Copy !req
120. You need to take it easy.
Copy !req
121. At this rate, ain't no way
your mind can keep up.
Copy !req
122. I'm fine.
Copy !req
123. No matter how much chrome I get,
I don't feel a damn thing.
Copy !req
124. Metal feels better
than being in my own skin.
Copy !req
125. Gotta admit, your adaptability to
cyberware is fucking nuts.
Copy !req
126. Ain't never seen a kid
cyborg out quite like this.
Copy !req
127. Your cyberware capacity's already—
Copy !req
128. You think you're special?
Copy !req
129. Just must be special, I guess.
Copy !req
130. You aiming to be like
Adam Smasher or what?
Copy !req
131. Adam what?
Copy !req
132. Damn. All this time and
you're still a fucking newb.
Copy !req
133. Don't even know Adam Smasher.
Copy !req
134. Some know him as a war hero
from the 4th Corporate War.
Copy !req
135. To others, a fully cyborged
boogeyman, walking nightmare.
Copy !req
136. But to all, a living legend, ask anyone.
Copy !req
137. What kinda legend?
Copy !req
138. There's probably a graveyard out there
Copy !req
139. full of big shots he flatlined
on Arasaka's orders.
Copy !req
140. Sounds like a hoax.
Copy !req
141. Kiwi?
Copy !req
142. What's up?
Copy !req
143. Can you drop by the Afterlife?
Copy !req
144. You guys still out bar hopping?
Copy !req
145. Got someone here who wants to see you.
Copy !req
146. David.
Copy !req
147. Hey, Kiwi.
Copy !req
148. Wish you luck.
Copy !req
149. I believe this is the first time
we meet, Mister Martinez.
Copy !req
150. We've crossed paths…
You came to a party once to talk to Maine.
Copy !req
151. Is that so?
I believe introductions are in order.
Copy !req
152. I am Faraday.
Copy !req
153. You have a job for me?
Copy !req
154. No need to rush. Let me buy you a drink.
Copy !req
155. I've heard a great deal about you.
Copy !req
156. You are making quite a name for yourself.
Copy !req
157. The rookie with the Sandevistan.
Copy !req
158. I've got more than the Sandy now.
Copy !req
159. This is true. It seems now
you are more steel than bone.
Copy !req
160. Maine and I had
a mutually beneficial work relationship.
Copy !req
161. I know.
Copy !req
162. He understood crew chemistry.
Copy !req
163. He did.
Copy !req
164. But his flaw was personal attachment.
Copy !req
165. Familiarity muddies the mind,
leads to ruin.
Copy !req
166. I hear that you're also good
with teamwork.
Copy !req
167. But I keep my private
and professional life separate.
Copy !req
168. I would like for you to convince me that
you can work at the same level as Maine.
Copy !req
169. You're testing me?
Copy !req
170. You can think of it that way.
Copy !req
171. You can test me all you want,
but I ain't running jobs for cheap.
Copy !req
172. Nothing I do is cheap.
Copy !req
173. This a Militech job?
Copy !req
174. They're at odds with Arasaka.
Copy !req
175. As you might expect,
corporate jobs pay out the most.
Copy !req
176. Do you oppose?
Copy !req
177. Consider it done.
Copy !req
178. Good to hear.
Copy !req
179. There is an assignment
I'd like you to take over after this job.
Copy !req
180. It's a matter familiar to you.
Copy !req
181. You mean the data you wanted from Tanaka?
Copy !req
182. Unfortunately, I received a report
that Tanaka had no data.
Copy !req
183. Yup.
Copy !req
184. But I also received a report that
you successfully bypassed Arasaka's ICE.
Copy !req
185. And that this wasn't done by Kiwi,
but by a back-up runner.
Copy !req
186. Yeah. Our team's got
lucky with good runners.
Copy !req
187. Excellent. However, I hear
this runner is not present.
Copy !req
188. Yeah. They left the team after that case.
Copy !req
189. Why is that? Such a waste of good talent.
Copy !req
190. Their heart's just not in it.
Copy !req
191. It wouldn't hurt to try
to convince her again.
Copy !req
192. Easier said than done…
Copy !req
193. Arasaka knows that
Militech's after them, right?
Copy !req
194. Of course.
Copy !req
195. What's Militech after
that they'd want this bad?
Copy !req
196. That is my concern and none of yours.
Copy !req
197. Needless details
would only get in your way.
Copy !req
198. Learn anything new that might help?
Copy !req
199. Not yet. But as they say,
"Good things come to those who wait."
Copy !req
200. But you've yet to prove
that you're worth my time.
Copy !req
201. You're home.
Copy !req
202. It's pretty late.
Copy !req
203. Got caught up.
Copy !req
204. Made a victory lap at Minjung's?
Copy !req
205. Yeah.
Copy !req
206. Any problems on the job?
Copy !req
207. We lost someone tonight.
Copy !req
208. Who?
Copy !req
209. Greenhorn solo Wakako sent us.
Copy !req
210. Oh. But everything went fine otherwise?
Copy !req
211. Easy. The newb just jumped the gun.
Copy !req
212. Sounds like some other newb I once knew.
Copy !req
213. Hey.
Copy !req
214. So…
Copy !req
215. We got something big coming up.
Copy !req
216. How fun.
Copy !req
217. And it'd really help
if you'd get on board…
Copy !req
218. Two runners makes for a crowd, doesn't it?
Copy !req
219. You know that I'd rather have—
Copy !req
220. David, please.
Copy !req
221. I need more time.
Copy !req
222. Fine. Okay.
Copy !req
223. You were diving again?
Copy !req
224. Why don't you buy a runnersuit?
Copy !req
225. Don't need one.
Copy !req
226. We can get you a new chair.
The ice-bath can't be comfortable.
Copy !req
227. Thank you.
But I don't like wearing a suit.
Copy !req
228. Oh.
Copy !req
229. Sorry, I didn't know.
Copy !req
230. Hey, David?
Copy !req
231. Come with me.
Copy !req
232. Whoa! Look at the stars!
Copy !req
233. Can't get a view like this in the city.
Copy !req
234. - Think I can catch one?
- As if.
Copy !req
235. Wish we could've seen the moon.
Copy !req
236. The stars shine brighter
because the moon's not out.
Copy !req
237. Really?
Copy !req
238. The moon outshines the stars.
Copy !req
239. What were they teaching you
at the Academy?
Copy !req
240. I'm a drop-out, remember?
Copy !req
241. Right, right.
Copy !req
242. Never been outside of the city.
Copy !req
243. Huh.
Copy !req
244. You had a life outside the city once, huh?
Copy !req
245. The city looks like a cage
made of lights from here.
Copy !req
246. You may not remember…
Copy !req
247. You said you and I are different.
Copy !req
248. Yes.
Copy !req
249. What did you mean by that?
Copy !req
250. Don't wanna talk about it?
Copy !req
251. You'd rather not hear.
Copy !req
252. I just… wanna know more about you.
Copy !req
253. Arasaka.
Copy !req
254. Arasaka?
Copy !req
255. Yes.
Copy !req
256. I was born in a different country
and raised in an Arasaka facility.
Copy !req
257. Including me, 13 children passed
proficiency tests to become netrunners.
Copy !req
258. Kids who wouldn't be missed
if they disappeared.
Copy !req
259. "We'll serve the world's most
powerful megacorp one day…"
Copy !req
260. That dream is what got us through
the hard days of training.
Copy !req
261. It's the dream we were given,
the dream we never questioned.
Copy !req
262. But when training ended,
we weren't assigned to a corpo office.
Copy !req
263. We were taken to an underground facility
where we were constantly forced to dive…
Copy !req
264. They sent us into the Old Net.
Copy !req
265. Old Net?
Copy !req
266. That's the old internet domain that
collapsed around 50 years ago, right?
Copy !req
267. Yes.
Copy !req
268. Brought down by history's greatest
netrunner, creator of daemons…
Copy !req
269. Hacker savant, legend, Rache Bartmoss.
Copy !req
270. The guy that brought down
78 percent of the world wide web.
Copy !req
271. His DataKrash virus shattered cyberspace…
Copy !req
272. …Broke the Net into a scattered
mosaic of isolated localnets.
Copy !req
273. Arasaka's purpose was in the Old Net.
The legacies of the past.
Copy !req
274. Vast amounts of lost knowledge.
Copy !req
275. And we were soldiers being sent to a nest
of illegal malware and aggressive AI.
Copy !req
276. Advanced netrunners can dive
into it with their whole mind.
Copy !req
277. You mean deep-diving.
Copy !req
278. And diving materializes cyberspace
into a traversable world.
Copy !req
279. But whenever we uncovered
any rare data cache…
Copy !req
280. Rogue AIs would find and attack us.
Copy !req
281. We were picked off one by one.
Copy !req
282. I continued to dive,
thinking that each time would be my last.
Copy !req
283. Soon, there were only
a handful of us left.
Copy !req
284. We were being killed
to live someone else's dream.
Copy !req
285. So we thought, "If we're going to die,
why not die trying to escape?"
Copy !req
286. The tech staff didn't stand a chance.
Not against the skills they'd taught us.
Copy !req
287. And we escaped.
Copy !req
288. I kept running.
Copy !req
289. I could hear my friends crying out,
Copy !req
290. but I didn't look back.
Copy !req
291. When I came to,
I was living out in a junkyard.
Copy !req
292. After that, I was too scared
to stay in one place.
Copy !req
293. So I traveled to different cities.
Copy !req
294. But there's no place like Night City
if all you wanna do is hide.
Copy !req
295. You still feel like you're being chased?
Copy !req
296. Not really. Guess I just got
too comfortable here.
Copy !req
297. Or maybe I've grown used to being scared.
Copy !req
298. That hand…
Copy !req
299. It's nothing.
It'll be alright in a second.
Copy !req
300. You haven't changed at all.
Still living for someone else's dream.
Copy !req
301. It's not like I don't understand.
Copy !req
302. I don't think I'm scared
for myself anymore.
Copy !req
303. I'm more scared that…
Copy !req
304. Someday, you'll…
Copy !req
305. Yes. I was able to recover
most of the data.
Copy !req
306. The information on
one of the test subjects
Copy !req
307. appears to be completely corrupted.
Copy !req
308. I would say that it was
intentionally manipulated.
Copy !req
309. There's no trace on the ICE.
Copy !req
310. This hacking couldn't have been done
by an average runner.
Copy !req
311. I don't believe Tanaka
would have erased it.
Copy !req
312. So it must have been manipulated
during his capture.
Copy !req
313. Understood.
I'll see what I can do to restore it.
Copy !req
314. Goodbye.
ids, we were soldiers sent into
a nest of daemons and.
Copy !req
315. Only an advanced runner can interface
using their whole mind.
Copy !req
316. A deep-dive.
Copy !req
317. It gives shape and form
to cyberspace, a way to traverse it.
Copy !req
318. But whenever we uncovered
any rare data cache…
Copy !req
319. …Rogue AIs would find us and swarm.
Copy !req
320. We were picked off one by one.
Copy !req
321. More empty chairs after each dive.
And my hope, each dive would be my last.
Copy !req
322. Wasn't long before there were only
a handful of us left.
Copy !req
323. We were chasing someone else's dream,
throwing down our lives to do it.
Copy !req
324. So we realized, "If we're goners,
why not die chasing our own dream?"
Copy !req
325. The tech staff didn't stand a chance.
Copy !req
326. Not in the face of the skills
they'd taught us.
Copy !req
327. I ran and ran.
Copy !req
328. Heard shots, my friend's screams.
Copy !req
329. But I never looked back.
Copy !req
330. Next clear memory I have
is of a junkyard.
Copy !req
331. Home, I guess.
But I was too scared to stay long.
Copy !req
332. I roamed, place to place.
Copy !req
333. But there's no place like Night City
if you wanna hide.
Copy !req
334. And even now,
still feel like they're chasing you?
Copy !req
335. Not really, I guess.
Copy !req
336. Maybe I've just grown
too comfortable here.
Copy !req
337. Or maybe I've grown used to being scared.
Copy !req
338. Your hand.
Copy !req
339. It's nothing. It'll be fine in a sec.
Copy !req
340. Haven't changed, have you?
Still chasing someone else's dream.
Copy !req
341. It's not like I don't understand.
Copy !req
342. Just that… that things are different now.
Can't be afraid for myself anymore.
Copy !req
343. Only if you're now is…
Copy !req
344. Someday, you'll…
Copy !req
345. Yes.
I managed to retrieve most of the data.
Copy !req
346. But the vital's file
for one of the test subjects
Copy !req
347. was completely corrupted.
Copy !req
348. Yes. Manipulated deliberately.
Copy !req
349. No trace in the ICE. No.
Copy !req
350. But this level of precision,
Copy !req
351. well, there's only a handful
of netrunners capable of it.
Copy !req
352. No. I don't believe that.
Tanaka had no reason to do so.
Copy !req
353. My assumption. His system
was breached when he was captured.
Copy !req
354. Understood.
I'll do what I can do to restore it.
Copy !req
355. Goodbye.
Copy !req
