[The video cuts to a plain black screen with the word 'UNAVAILABLE' written in white, with Tonegawa speaking over it.]

At the moment, I am away from my desk. Please leave a message and I will get back to you at the most convenient time.

We need to talk about your choice of friends. Right now.

I'm sorry. I didn't realise that you'd suddenly elected to be my mother. Or to give a damn.

... I'm sorry about what I said before. Especially after we'd called a truce. I was just... embarrassed, I guess. But that's not the point. The point is I thought you'd...

.

... I didn't think you'd go back to that kind of person so quickly. Why're you getting involved with that guy? I thought you'd have- that you'd- It doesn't matter. I just want to know what you're thinking.

I don't see how this is any of your business, Kaiji-kun, but your opinion has been duly noted.

It's my business because I agreed to help you out, remember? I don't want anything to do with you if you're just gonna go off and find another big-shot gangster to suck up to.

That has nothing to do with this. I'm paying you to shut up and do as you're told, not to patronise and mother me.

... fine. Whatever. But after this, I don't want anything else to do with you. I thought you might've learnt something but I guess I was wrong. You're too damn proud to change. I shouldn't have expected anything else from you.

Tell me when you're ready to go.

Wonderful! Truly wonderful!

Don't forget, Kaiji, for a single second, that you are the last person I ever wanted to see again. Don't forget that you ruined my life. You thought? You thought? Don't be an idiot! I don't owe you a single damn thing anymore, never mind a standard of behaviour! Just how can you listen to yourself, knowing what you know?

I ruined your life?! You're breaking my fucking heart, Tonegawa-! I don't see you shedding any tears for Ishida or Sahara or any of the others! And you know what? I didn't ask for that-! I didn't ask Hyodo to do that to you!

I made the biggest fucking mistake of my life that night. It wasn't losing to the Chairman. It was including you in the same breath as the men you murdered.

You-! I-!

What are you talking about?! How could you have lost?! I was right there when you won! You're the one who has everything, Itou!

I don't have jack. I fucked up and let the old man take advantage of me. And before you say anything, I didn't do it for the money, I did it for them. I even did it for you.

I wanted to watch him squirm and defeat him once and for all but I lost and now I don't have anything. I don't even have a roof over my head back home- they're carting me straight to the mines when I get back.

... you... you fucked up?

Y-your fingers! Show me your fingers!

You idiot. You stupid piece of shit.

You think I don't know that?! You think I haven't beaten myself up about it every fucking night?! You know, I managed to delude myself for a while. Tell myself that just one more push would save me. But I'm done with that now- I've woken up. And I don't need you of all people to tell me that I made a mistake-!

Oh my god. I don't believe this. Here I was, sitting here, wallowing in self-pity about losing to someone like you, and you-- -- just went and blew the entire deal clean out of the water. This can't be happening, not to me.

Ugh, I hate talking to people on machines~ ...

Are you there? Its your good friend Ukyou?

Ah, my apologies. I'm not usually away from my desk. How can I help you?

Is this line safe? is it private?

...if so I'll continue. See, as I recall you were worried about me feeling if I could trust you or not? ... now's a perfect time to prove that I can.

Yes, it's private. What did you have in mind, Ukyou?

Good! I'll continue then!

[A small pause and dramatic huff later.]

I'm planning on causing, well.. a little bit of trouble and I'm calling a favour of you. You'll be rewarded handsomely of course. Not that I'm insinuating you need the money, but its always nice to have more than those around you isn't it?

[Softly chuckling before he continues.]

Also, this really will be a kick in the teeth to those know-it-all SERO types, when my plans finally surface. Anyway's~ my dear man, I need your assistance in a few things, I need some materials, an alibi ... you if possible.

My, my. Restless, aren't you? I'm sure I can arrange for that. It would hardly be strange for us to be spending time together, given that we're in the same line of work... yes, it's perfectly doable. I can cover for you.

Is this for Afterglow inc. or your own amusement, if you don't mind my asking?

[Oh it is very much AGI-approved! seeing as how Ukyou has managed to convert one of the leading SERO engineer specializing in robotics and cybernetics, over into working for AGI!

He's not just a pretty face you see~]

I always am~ That's why you came to mind, its not odd for us to be seen together, so its a very realistic alibi. You're a diamond in the rough my dear Tonegawa~

[A pleased sigh as he relaxes some more.]

Well you see, of course its for me! why wouldn't I want to spoil myself! But see I've gone and ... helped out a one Mister Bozsi, I don't know if you've heard of him-

[Ukyou sounds a little smug at the moment.]

-but its all over the news feed. He's apparently gone missing kufufuf~ if only they knew how easily he was to bribe. But really, he's going to help me make something, to make me feel... more at home, something that yourself and I shall profit from greatly, Afterglow inc will of course reap in the profit too. I've been an avid customer for the slave traffic and I've even drawn up some contracts for my slaves to sign so that I can- oh listen to me, getting ahead of myself like some excited young maiden~

I must be boring you to sleep by now~

[More like he had to tell someone his plans and get the help he needs in getting this operation up and off the ground.]

A diamond in the rough? Oh, believe you me, I'm as polished as they come.

Bozsi would be the SERO cybernetics expert that went missing, I take it? Interesting. Please, do go on. I'm curious to know what you've dreamed up.
