Transcript
A reporter from Channel 5 is shown. It cuts to a reporter Sakura TV is then seen. Two men, one in a suit the other in street clothes, are shown debating each other. Two separate TVs are turned off at the same time as two people who were watching the debate sit in their almost completely black rooms. Both smile at the same time. It suddenly cuts to outside of a school where the students are exiting their classes with a caption reading "Some Time Earlier." One of the students is staring at their test, revealing they got a 100 on all answers. A young girl runs up to the boy and hugs his arm. Another girl runs up, pushing the first away. The two girls start arguing, not noticing Shin walking away. He then walks around the block and grabs a cigar and starts smoking.
