Narration*knocking*
PlayerYes?
Player*mumbling* Zzz...
PlayerDon't bother me outside of working hours...
PlayerDon't answer.
Kosuke MisonoI'm coming in.
Kosuke MisonoDo you have a minute? I need to ask you something.
Player...All right. Sure.
PlayerIf it's not part of my mission, I'm not interested.
PlayerWhile we're here doing this, the world is coming apart.
Kosuke MisonoI appreciate it. Come down to the living room when you're ready.
Kosuke MisonoOh, and don't tell Inori. She's not ready to know about all this yet.
Kosuke Misono...We should hurry—they're probably already waiting for us. I'll see you in the living room.
Kosuke MisonoHey, don't be like that. There may be something in this for you, too. Can't you just hear me out?
Kosuke MisonoSpare me the poor attempt at humor. I just want to talk for a bit.

AegiomonHey... Do I really hafta wear this all the time?
Kosuke MisonoYes, deal with it. People aren't exactly used to seeing kids with horns.
Kosuke MisonoYou don't want to go causing a panic, right? You're gonna have to wear that when we go out.
Kosuke MisonoI have to say... it fits perfectly. Never thought anyone would wear that stuff again...
Kosuke MisonoNow then, it's about time to head out.
PlayerHead out? Head out where?
PlayerHow come you have clothes in that size...?
PlayerWill I get paid for working on my day off?
Kosuke MisonoThere's someone I'd like for you to meet—especially the little half-pint, there.
Kosuke MisonoShe's not a bad person, I can promise you that much. She's just a little... eccentric, that's all.
Kosuke Misono...I'd like it if you would just read the room on that one.
Kosuke MisonoAnyway, I want us to make a little outing together today.
Kosuke MisonoWh, what? I can't do anything about that, save that for your bosses.
Kosuke MisonoAnyway... will you come along?
Kosuke MisonoI'll be honest, half-pint. I'd like a sample of your data.
Kosuke MisonoInori isn't coming, by the way. One look at the half-pint dressed like that and I bet she'd—
Kosuke Misono...Never mind. She'd lose her mind if she heard me saying that.
Kosuke MisonoWe're supposed to meet up at Shinjuku Park. Come on. Let's head on over.

Kodai Kuremi...Hey, Misono.
Kosuke MisonoI hear you've been pretty busy lately, Kuremi.
Kosuke MisonoAnyway, I brought the "sample" I promised.
Kodai KuremiHmm. This little boy, then?
Kosuke MisonoI also brought a helpful friend who knows how to handle phase electron lifeforms. Should net you some better data.
Kosuke MisonoI've known this captain here for ages. Only guy in public safety with a collaborative bone in his body.
Kosuke MisonoPublic safety is secretly gathering intel on phase electron lifeforms, too, by the way.
Kosuke MisonoWhen I worked there, they refused to give us the budget to look into them no matter how much I bugged them.
Kodai Kuremi...You're just terrible at office politics.
Kodai KuremiYou can't even collect data properly without our organization's help.
Kosuke MisonoHey, I'm willing to share my precious sample data with you, aren't I?
Kosuke MisonoIf anyone should be grateful, it's you guys, don't you think?
Kosuke MisonoOkay, half-pint... I need you to come with us now.
Kosuke MisonoDon't worry. I won't let them lock you up and throw away the key or anything. I'll hold them to their word.
Kosuke MisonoBut to keep a long story short, just know that this is all for Inori's sake.
AegiomonWell, I don't really get what's going on here,
Aegiomonbut if it's for Inori, I'll do whatever I can.
Kosuke MisonoReady when you are.
Kodai KuremiFair enough. I'll leave the rest to the boss lady, then.
Kodai KuremiIf you would...
Shota KuroiDr. Simmons! We're all set!
Dr. SimmonsOkay, okay.
Genius or Crackpot? 4 22 lines
Dr. SimmonsWell! How entirely wonderful!
Dr. SimmonsI can't believe this is actually happening! You're really here, in the flesh! A real phase electron lifeform!
AegiomonIs that... what you call us Digimon?
Dr. Simmons"Digimon," you say? How fascinating!
Dr. SimmonsTruly remarkable! Well, no time to waste. Let's begin the experiment at once!
Dr. SimmonsIs everyone ready?
Kosuke MisonoSheesh. At least introduce yourself first!
Dr. SimmonsOops! Of course. How rude of me. I'm Dr. Simmons. Monica Simmons.
PlayerWhat are you planning to do?
PlayerYou're pretty forward, aren't you? I mean, we just met.
PlayerOkay, okay... Aren't you just the life of the party?
Dr. SimmonsWhat? No one told you? I'm a research scientist with a particular interest in Digimon.
Dr. SimmonsI want to learn everything I can about their capabilities as living organisms. Toward that end, I have various hypotheses I wish to test.
Dr. SimmonsOnly through the most humane of methods, naturally.
Dr. SimmonsMy apologies. I thought I knew my manners, but my intellectual curiosity got the better of me.
Dr. SimmonsSometimes I get so caught up, my sense of etiquette seems to fly right out the window.
Dr. SimmonsI'll do my best to be more polite in the future.
Dr. SimmonsWell, I've never been described like that before. Truly fascinating.
Dr. SimmonsBut right now, I'm afraid my focus needs to be on the Digimon. I do apologize.
Dr. SimmonsAt any rate, we'll draw too much attention here. Let's move to a larger space, and I'll explain everything there.
OperatorA scientist working for public safety, huh. If she's accomplished, there must be some public info on her.
OperatorI'll see what I can find out about her. You'll hear from me as soon as I learn anything, so sit tight.

Dr. SimmonsOkay, okay. Let us begin. Just take a deep breath and relax. You've got nothing to worry about... It's a simple experiment.
Dr. SimmonsAll you have to do is attack these officers with the full extent of the capabilities you possess.
Dr. Simmons...And you're the one who gives the commands, are you? I ask for your cooperation as well, then.
Dr. SimmonsI can't guarantee it for sure, but with our prototype device here, you shouldn't be able to deal any real damage to them.
Dr. SimmonsSo don't worry and definitely don't hold back! Let's get started!!
Genius or Crackpot? 6 5 lines
Dr. SimmonsGood! Yes, that's it! Go on! They can take it! Show me more. MORE, I tell you!
Kodai KuremiThat's enough for today, Simmons. Our equipment's reaching its limits, and that prototype isn't cheap to run, either.
Kosuke MisonoWorried about the budget, Captain? A bureaucrat through and through, aren't you.
Kodai KuremiI'm just trying to keep all parties happy. Come on, Simmons. We're calling this thing off.
Dr. SimmonsVery well...

Kosuke MisonoI need to have a little talk with these people. You head on home first, okay?
AegiomonOof!
BoyOops! I'm sorry!
Boy...Huh?
BoyOh, you're a kid, too! In that case, tag! You're it!
AegiomonI'm... "it"?
PlayerLooks like they're having a game of tag.
PlayerDo you wanna play with your fellow kids?
PlayerGo catch those kids!
Kosuke MisonoIf you're curious, go ahead, go play with them.
Aegiomon...Play?
BoyHey, what're you waiting for?! You're it, you know!
Kosuke MisonoChase after them, and tag one with your hand.
AegiomonO-Okay, got it!
AegiomonH-Here I come!
Kosuke MisonoWell, I'll leave the rest to you.

Aegiomon*panting* Did I do it? Did I tag you right?
BoyWow, dude... you're fast! You're amazing!
AegiomonTag sure is... fun, but I'm... all worn out!
BoyHey, no fair! You can't quit while you're ahead!
GirlYou'd better come back tomorrow! We'll see who's the fastest then!
BoyTomorrow, then! You hear?! You'd better promise!
Aegiomon...Okay! I promise!
AegiomonHey! Let's go home!
AegiomonI've gotta tell Inori all about this!
AegiomonLet's come back tomorrow! And let's bring Inori!
BoyYou'd better! We'll see you here tomorrow!

OperatorAgent Player, I've made an attempt at reassessing the current situation.
OperatorPay close attention to this Inori Misono and Aegiomon... Aegiomon's evolution was seemingly triggered by Inori.
OperatorThere's no record of humans ever affecting Digimon like that before. That alone makes those two an anomaly.
OperatorAnd Shinjuku is where the worldwide calamity began. It's hard to believe these two facts could be completely unrelated.
OperatorJust think! Ever since you met this girl, the very principles of time itself have been turned on their head.
OperatorInori Misono... and Aegiomon. From this moment forward, they're to be recognized as class-A anomalies.
OperatorIn other words, a subject of our investigation.
OperatorI expect you to make every effort to find out all you can about them. Don't miss a single detail. I'm counting on you.
