00:00You
00:30Destroy it so sweetly
00:34Now there is a fire in me
00:40A fire like a fire
01:00This fire is out of control
01:16And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning down
01:20I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning down
01:51Cargo's rolling into town from the east.
01:53Got a whole truck to clep before it hits city limits.
01:56Haul's two and a half mil.
01:58Paid up front.
01:59To be divvied as per usual.
02:04Holy moly.
02:05This job's a bona fide rep maker, that's for sure.
02:08Well, target's a corp, ain't it?
02:10Convoy like that, think I know which one.
02:14Arasaka.
02:17Now, I ain't trying to water down the pot.
02:19Half a mil ahead's nice and all, but really think five of us is enough?
02:23Security footprint on the convoy's peculiarly small.
02:26Saka probably posting a limited crew to cast a short shadow.
02:30Keep a low profile.
02:31A strat they'll revamp after today.
02:34I don't know about that, Chooms.
02:36No need to overthink this.
02:37Smash, grab, deliver.
02:39It's what we do.
02:40Easy peasy.
02:41Biz as usual.
02:43Biz as usual my ass.
02:46The Cyber Skeleton.
02:48Do you truly believe he can manage it?
02:51Well, Arasaka does at least.
02:53After seeing his chemistry mesh so well with the Sandavistan.
02:57It's why Tanaka wanted David back at the Academy so badly.
03:00To use him as a lab rat for test runs.
03:03And the girl shredded David's file.
03:06She hoped Arasaka's plans for him would simply disappear.
03:10That's how I see it.
03:11Frying Tanaka tight up a loose end.
03:14So Mane and Dorio were mere collateral damage in her scheme.
03:19Sure, in hindsight.
03:21So much carnage for one so petite.
03:24I wonder, how many has she killed to save this one punk?
03:35Dove a little deeper.
03:37Learned she was once an Arasaka operative.
03:40Corp groomed her as a kid to mine data in the old net.
03:44Explains her cutting through Arasaka ice as if it were scum.
03:49Simply too perfect.
03:51She will be the cherry we drop on top.
03:54I'll guarantee Arasaka welcomes us with open arms.
03:57This girl's a fast lane ticket up the corporate rungs.
04:00Didn't see you as such a stiff corpo climber.
04:03What are fixers?
04:05If not glorified pet builders who keep their mercenary hounds well fed.
04:10There's but one true measure of success in Night City.
04:13One standing in the corporate world.
04:16And to keep climbing, I shall need your continued support.
04:19Don't think you've dangled me out there enough already?
04:22You make it sound as if I'm forcing you.
04:25At the moment, only I have corp immunity for the Tanaka incident.
04:30Slimy as ever.
04:32Come on, let's play nice for old time's sake.
04:36Besides, aren't you thrilled to take Arasaka money while dis-fucking Militech with the same hand?
04:42I'm certain Arasaka won't object.
04:45I'll personally negotiate your commission and immunity.
04:51Never trust a soul in Night City.
04:55The fools who make that mistake get burned.
04:59And David? Bargaining chip too?
05:02Naturally. In fact, I've the perfect plan in mind.
05:06And I'm confident Arasaka will be on board too.
05:13It's me. And have I got a juicy job for you.
05:21Emergency meeting? What gives, Choomba?
05:25Faraday came through for us. Scored us our biggest gig yet.
05:30Huge risk, huge reward.
05:33Duck out now if you don't want to face that kind of heat.
05:40Counting on you too, Kiwi.
05:42Sure.
05:43Come on. Granny and Gramps here ought to ride the bench this round.
05:47Think your little chicken legs will reach the pedal zone?
05:50Yo!
05:51Fair.
05:52What's the plan?
05:53Security detail. Small but elite.
05:56Faraday's brought in a decoy crew to split Sokka's attention and manpower.
06:03Decoys?
06:04The version aimed to give us an opening.
06:06Though, I'm sure Faraday didn't tell him that.
06:10Classic Faraday shenanigans.
06:12Of course, Maturana's around the barn too.
06:14Decores for decoys.
06:17Ya fucker!
06:23Whoa!
06:47Heh heh heh!
06:53Whoa!
06:56All right. Got them good and split up.
06:59What do we do?
07:00Target's gone off-road.
07:02We have the high ground.
07:04Yo! Let's roll, Falco!
07:06Yeehaw!
07:07Giddy-up, partner!
07:11David! Engines warm, snacks are pat.
07:15David!
07:17Wait, are these... are these all immunoplockers?
07:22Help me out while you grab my mom's jacket.
07:26I'm calling the gig off. We're going to Doc-
07:28Becca.
07:30I've got a favor to ask.
07:31You'd better knock it off!
07:33Becca.
07:35I can't ask any- anyone but you.
07:48Rebecca?
07:49Ugh! Puppy-dog eyes!
07:51Knew I'm in sucker form, didn't ya?
07:53Whatever. Just don't use your fuckin' sun-device stand, you hear me?
07:56Okay, okay.
08:13That's one done and gone.
08:15All right. I'm tailgating this sumbitch.
08:17Packin' his breakin' system.
08:19Hold up! Got more on our ass!
08:24Ugh! Too much! Can't get a shot off of these guys!
08:27Just leave it to me!
08:28Don't even think about using your sun-device!
08:30Damn!
08:39Escort fan out of commission!
08:41Guess he's fuckin' deaf now!
08:43Huh?
08:44Come on! Punch the tube!
08:46Becca! Cargo truck's exposed! Plant the charge!
08:49This is what...
08:51...blastin' looks like!
08:53You fuckin' asshole!
09:03All appendages intact?
09:05Turn around, Stash! Ice on the damn road!
09:07Hey, guys.
09:08Huh?
09:09Not a scratch on that thing.
09:11Ice is just as thick. Can't crack it.
09:14Then I'll fuckin' hit him head-on if I gotta!
09:16Seriously! Quit showin' up!
09:18You dick!
09:19Gettin' fuckin' tired of being ignored!
09:23Hey! No driver!
09:24What's that?
09:25This thing's...
09:26...on autopilot!
09:31Perfect ambush. Perfect. It's going perfectly.
09:34Exactly. Exactly as anticipated. How I saw it.
09:37Very, very good work, Faraday.
09:40All projections green. On track.
09:42Taps open. Leaks out. Militech knows.
09:45Knows about the convoy. You're getting your field test.
09:49Of course, assuming he...
09:51...the boy...
09:52...can wield the cyberskeleton.
09:54He'd better. If he can't stomach it...
09:57...gets cold feet...
09:58...our recovery crew will face a Militech battalion.
10:02A stalemate. Bloody bloody. That's our aim.
10:04No need to worry.
10:06My pawns are in place. Yes.
10:08My opening all set.
10:11So please, please, sit back, relax, enjoy the show.
10:17Not good. Better stop it quick.
10:19Got a canyon up ahead.
10:20What?
10:21David!
10:23I hear ya!
10:24Drop that! Geeks fuckin' chop!
10:30So...
10:32...what now, Martinez?
10:35You're right on the edge.
10:37Falco, pull up closer now!
10:39Easier said than done.
10:41Hey! Launch the harpoon my way!
10:43What the hell?
10:44And slam all the brakes on my sink!
10:46What are you scheming now?
10:47Come on, come on!
10:48What the fuck? He ain't right!
10:50I'll shoot it if you won't!
11:00June, you got this.
11:01It's time to cut loose. No holding back.
11:04It's just you and the road. No doubters to slow you down now.
11:07So show them who you are.
11:09What you're made of.
11:11You're special, remember?
11:24Frank!
11:25Cut it!
11:38No!
12:04So nova!
12:05Well, that was fun
12:17VIP treatment
12:19They send an executive class AV to collect one lone street girl. You really must be their precious lost toy
12:27Oh
12:32Word Lucy still quiet as a cook cricket. So what? How's another runner supposed to help us out of this mess?
12:38Anyway, I'm gonna pay her from your cut. I hope
12:42Kiwi progress
12:43Gonna need another couple of minutes to breach the lock didn't know about this
12:47Then sit right with me the way the truck was on man. We damn sure it's our sucker
12:52If you're so worried just grab the cargo and ghosts in and out
12:57That's assuming you can pop it open quick. You're yapping is killing me. Literally. Can we please go get our wheels?
13:05You know didn't really occur to me when we first took the gig but
13:08Wide open as it is out here. Well, we'd be fishing the barrel if someone got the jump
13:14Like you doesn't deserve that cowboy stash like a little bitch
13:19Bet you'd go weak in the knees if I shaved it off
13:27Shit decoys didn't hold out long. We got company folks
13:43Basilisk and a missile carrier
13:57Oh
14:10Bear day, that's some bitch works for Militech journey. Don't stop fishy. I don't know what
14:19All set open what already want cover get inside quick
14:25What in seven hells so this the thing that Faraday had main looking all over for
14:30Yes, so but anyone know what the hell it is a cyber skeleton
14:35military-grade implants
14:37military
14:38Wait, so like David Sandeva Stan several degrees more advanced. But yeah, sure
14:44Hey, no, that's and devastating his ain't nothing to sneeze that either never ever heard of tech like this
14:51Believe me or don't far as I know
14:54Arasaka thinks they can overtake Militech's market share in the arms trade with this and mass production
15:00They kept its development hush-hush like very
15:05Most of the info they isolated and concentrated under Tanaka
15:08I'd say that's how Faraday got his Militech contract to begin with promise to snatch the prototype setting Arasaka back years
15:17It's not every day you see the splendor of Night City at your feet a
15:22Welcome change of scenery compared to ice baths and austere rooms shame not to share it
15:28What do you say? Will you lend a hand help me make your boy fly?
15:37David Lucy, she's calling
15:40No, seriously, not the time David Lucy
15:45Where the hell is your cyber skeleton step into it?
15:49No time Militech's incoming. How could you know?
15:53Where are you? They're after me to say what do it now or everyone dies
16:01Use the cyber skeleton if you want to survive
16:05Please David before it's too late
16:09Lucy
16:12David I believe in you
16:17Lucy what'd she say the cyber skeleton gotta use it or we're all gonna die, huh?
16:24Lucy wouldn't say that though. Yeah sure about that. Someone's after her too got no choice
16:29I'm gonna have to chip it the whole trucks a mobile installation unit here
16:35Dex got the in cell sequence primed and ready
16:38No fucking way you're tipping that fucking thing gotta get us out of this mess
16:42Are you what you don't even have the slightest idea how the mystery chrome works or what it can do to you?
16:47Don't see any other options to you besides me knocking you the fuck out
16:52I'm gonna go grab our ride. I'll go with you. Good luck
16:56Last time I went and installed something wasn't mine main kicked the shit out of me
17:02Didn't learn my lesson
17:09I
17:22Don't text you quiet, what are they plotting now? Hey Kiwi?
17:29Sorry
17:31Make good on my end. I'm out of here. Excellent work Militech's expecting you. You're free to pass
17:38Meet me at the rendezvous point
17:44How'd you
17:49Lucy
17:54Lucy what happened? Are you okay?
17:57Not me
18:01He turned call it Tara Saka they want you in their new toy got you in that truck me
18:07But why he's using you hitting you against Militech then a saga squad's gonna grab you and the suit
18:17Did you truly think we had no failsafe in place
18:20I
18:23What happened Lucy Militech prototype all they want not not you leave it go run
18:36Lucy Lucy
18:38Shall I open a second neural port in the back of your skull?
18:43Lucy answer me. I'm afraid she's currently indisposed
18:47Verity I trust the job has been going well. Fuck you. Put Lucy back on
18:52Where is she at the moment? Your Arasaka runaway is kissing the ground and should feel grateful for it
18:58I was worried. I might have over scrambled her brain before delivering her back home
19:05Don't be so serious. I'm just having a ball of the time besides
19:17I
19:21Believe Militech forces are closing in on your position as we speak
19:25Install the soft use the cyber skeleton David lead your crew to safety if you ask me
19:31I think it's beyond you clearly Arasaka. See something. I don't
19:36If you're truly as special as they say you are boy. Show me what you're capable of
19:42survive
19:46Kill him
19:59Back to normal Lucy gonna go save her. No guess not sounds like your brains fried
20:05Faraday double-crossed the crew. He's got Lucy with him now Lucy. What do you mean that motherfucker?
20:12I'm gonna put him in the ground tear his fucking guts out and shove him down his throat
20:21Key we happen. Oh
20:23She let us right into this trap
20:42I
20:45Never seen anything this high spec in my life
20:48How you even move around in that thing comes with two compact thrusters built-in same kind you get on a Navy
20:55On top of that our Asaka engineered in a gravity modification prototype
21:03They can generate unidirectional graph fields magnetic forces to that they're the mag field generator
21:13Oh
21:15Holy hell, that's all squat just mowed down
21:42Oh
21:46Is that thing the graph field
21:54Shown to be inconsistent in field tests those who wielded it can't withstand the strain on their nervous system
22:03Requires someone with an abnormally high tolerance for cyberware integration surefire way to go cyberpsycho you mean
22:13Oh
22:22They get our boy
22:34Kids still going
22:36Yeah, his body is but the longer one uses it a higher the risk of bodily cyberware capacity overload
22:43that being said
22:51It's unlike anything devised on this side of sanity
23:06Oh
23:12Faraday's gonna regret playing us like dogs and we're getting Lucy out of there
23:18David main said everyone gets a fair shake
23:22That's the only way I operate to
23:27Sign me up Chumba into the fire
23:36I
24:06The city
24:13Trying so hard to be free to make you see what I say
24:22Hold on to your wishes if you can't hold on to me
24:30Forgive me for letting you down
24:32I
24:38Guess I'm not strong
25:02You
25:32You
26:02You
26:32You
