Kidou Keisatsu Patlabor

Synopsis

Division 2 have made a very temporary headquarters at the Shanghai restaurant. It is the second day of the siege, but the rebels have not made any demands yet. Kanuka, disguised as a delivery person from the Shanghai restaurant, asks the mechanics for help. Sakaki tells Kanuka that the police academy has a Patrol Labor prototype they could use. One of the mechanics says he overheard one of the rebels say that have a nuclear weapon. Kanuka returns to the restaurant and tells Goto the news. Meanwhile Shinobu has a video conference with the police chiefs. They tell her that the US military will be coming to end the coup before it becomes a civil war, and she should step down. She tells that she will not give into their bluff, and refuses to carry out their orders. The chiefs suspect Goto as he knew about the siege and he was friends with Kiyoteru Kai in college. The police have a warrant out for his arrest. Disgusted by their actions, Shinobu forcibly leaves the conference after an officer attempts to take her into custody.

Ota, Kanuka and Shinshi decide to "raise some hell" with the stolen Police Labor from the academy and a helicopter machine gun that Kanuka borrowed from one of her connections in the US military. They do not get very far, and are caught at a JGSDF blockade. The Labor is completely destroyed the ensuing chaos.

Asuma and Noa arrive in Tokyo. Asuma tells Goto that he saw Kai in a restaurant in Hokkaido. Upon hearing the news, Gotoh thinks he has Kai's plan figured out. Goto asks Matsui to help him. They contact the Maritime Authority who tell them that a ship named the Safflower has been acting suspiciously off the coast. Another ship named the Pacific is in the area too, and judging from US spy photos of the ships, both have missile launchers mounted on them. A short range missile has been stolen from the US military. This means one of the launchers is fake, but which one? Goto calls the ship that Kai is on to try and call his bluff. It does not work, and Kai sends out an ultimatum to the government; dissolve the Diet (the Japanese Government), ban all political parties, and suspend the constitution. If they do not do as he says, he will fire the missile. But Goto has a plan. He enlists the help of the US military and Shinohara Heavy Industries. Will he be able to stop Kai with a submarine and a prototype JGSDF Labor?
