ULTRASEVEN X EP 8 PT 2
A hover taxi pulls up to a series of run down apartments. Elea gets out, and pays the cabbie with cash. As the cabbir leaves Elea types a text on her armband, asking "Which building is it?" The reply is, "Second building, apartment 306." She heads to the second building.
She enters the building and goes to the third floor. She finds the right apartment and knocks on the door. The door cracks open and Elea finds a DEUS pistol pointed at her. A voice from the apartment demands she show proof of identity. Elea takes out the cd from episode 6 and holds it up. A hand reaches out and snatches it from her. After a moment the door flies open, and a haggard looking young man faces her. He tells her to come in. She does so, and he quickly locks the door behind her. At her startled look he replies that he needs to make sure that nobody can snoop.
Elea composes herself, and asks if the information she needs is going to be hard to get. The man sits at a desk with a futuristic desktop computer on it as he replies that he has been trying to hack DEUS's systems for a week now, and no luck. Elea says that they MUST get in their data systems. There is information they have regarding her mission she needs. He sighs, and tells her that she is obsessed with the idea of someone running the world from the shadows. She stares at him sternly and says, "Not someone, but someTHING. Now, I need that information. So let's get to work getting it." He looks at her for a second, and says "Ok then."
A short while later, and K calls Jin into the living room of the safehouse, saying he has information. Jin sits and asks what it is. K tells him he has found that the killer left a message at the last murder site. Jin asks if there are photos. K tells him that he was sent a photo by S from the police station. He calls up the photo. They study it for a second. K wonders why the killer would write that, and surmises it could be an alien.
Jin ponders if it means it could mean the killer is female. He then notices a smudge between the O and M, and realizes the message means "NOT MAN". K is confused, and asks if the killer is happy to reveal they are an alien. Jin again ponders if it means that, or maybe the killer IS human, but just not a man. Before K can respond, he gets a text on his armband. He reads it, then tells Jin that S and the police have discovered a connection between three of the murder victims.
They were members of a gang known for dealing drugs, specifically the new street drug Vertigo, which can cause permanent brain damage affecting a person's ability to perceive the world around them. Continued use causes fatal brain tumors. Jin is confused and asks why the hell the killer would be targeting primarily drug dealers. Could it be a killer hired by another gang? KK retorts with, "Or maybe an alien who hates drugs?" Jin rolls his eyes. K says that S also said the police had found the gang's hideout and that he and Jin are to join her there to keep an eye on them. Jin nods and gets up. K follows suit and they head out.
It is about an hour later, as evening sets in, K's car pulls up at a public parking lot across from an abandoned factory. Jin and K get out as S runs up to them. K asks where the police are for backup, and S says she thought it would be less noticable if it were just the three of them. Jin agrees with her. S tells them the entire known gang is in the factory, including their reclusive leader Sameo. K expresses surprise. Sameo has been in hiding for over a year because of a murder he committed. Jin says they better get in there. S agrees and leads the way.
The gang are assembled in an office in the factory. They are lined up. Twelve young men and two young women, dressed like futuristic punks. There is another, older man about 30ish dressed similarly in front of them. It is Sameo. He is furious, and strides back and forth. He complains that three of their number have been killed by this "Red Coat Killer". And that is too many. He wants the killer dead. A small, nervous young man stutters, "B-but Sameo, this thing can't be human!" In reply, Sameo shoots the man in the foot. The man drops, grabbing his foot and screaming as he bleeds on the floor. Sameo shouts at the man that he doesn't care who or what the killer is, IT WILL DIE.
We see Jin, K and S hiding in a old workshop area nearby, listening and watching via a small camera set up by S. They have earbuds in to hear what is being said. Jin replies that Sameo is pretty crazed. K replies that he must be scared. S says he is beyond terrified if the contacts the police have are right.
Sameo hauls up onto a desk a large gun case. "Not human? Bullshit!" He says as he opens the case. He starts hands numerous pistols and rifles out. He repeats that he doesn't care who or what this "Red Coat Killer" is, he wants them DEAD. The man he shot in the foot is carried off by a couple of the others.
As the group disperses, Jin, K and S watch them. K and S happen to wind up together. As they watch the men carrying off the injured gang member, S whispers to K an apology for her stunt that morning. K looks at her, and walks away. S curses under her breath.
