"we're business associates, Mr. Stark and I work together." "well, I'd say that's a good thing." "Tony seems pretty loose with women!" "Don't say things like that!" "what did I do?" "But, you called a lady last night!" "You were awake?" "Mr." "Stark." "It 's not what it looks like!" "That call was..." "Please look through the materials by tomorrow, Mr. Stark." "wait!" "I'm leaving." "You'd better give up on that lady." "That's enough from you!" "First, you completely trash my lab." "And now you're trying to mess up my personaly life?" "Don't give me that whole story about the Zodiac." "Tony." "Tony, you're stupid!" "Today's my day for getting knocked over." "Hello!" "Do you work at this orphanage?" "I'm Nanami Ota from the Tokyo Journal" "I'm trying to gather information on the girl in this photo." "If you know her, I'd like to talk to you." "Aki?" "where'd she run off to?" "She's being hunted by the Zodiac." "It's me, Nanami." "About that Aki girl .." "Did you find anything?" "She lost her parents two years ago in a plane crash." "The plane they were on was hijacked and it crashed." "She came to this institution after the accident." "But, about a year and a half ago, people wanted to adopt her, so..." "They didn't seem to know what happened to Aki after she left the orphanage." "Is that so?" "And..." "It seems someone else has been asking about Aki, too." "There you are." "Honestly, I was worried." "Be a bit..." "Don't you want to play with them?" "If I play with them, they'll be in danger." "I'm not that good at controlling my powers." "It was the same with Mom and Dad." "I'm sorry." "Tony?" "Aki, don't act like you're all alone, okay?" "You consider me your friend, right?" "Yeah!" "well then you better hang on, 'cause we got a lot fun ahead of us, little lady!" "All right, shall we go home?" "Okay." "Captain Sakurai, what brings you here?" "Mr. Stark, please give us that Zodiac girl" "So, you were the one asking about her?" "Sorry, but I'm gonna have to say no to your request." "I don't like using violence, but..." "Tony!" "where am I?" "Are you awake?" "You son of a..." "Aki!" "Don't worry, she's just sleeping." "She's just a kid!" "It's to prevent her from using her powers." "Her brain can generate an incredibly strong magnetic field ." "If she uses it on the iron in the blood of others, she can fling them away without touching them." "This is... we recovered this from a Zodiac factory the other day." "According to this, the Zodiac was developing weapons using her power." "I don't know what kind of weapons they are, but I want you to help analyze them." "In order to protect Japan." "I'll help you, but only for Aki." "It's coming!" "It 's coming!" "Virgo!" "Virgo?" "what's going on?" "It's an attack!" "what is that?" "Aki!" "Everyone, retreat!" "You idiot!" "That's dangerous!" "Follow that car!" "What's happening to Aki?" "I'm not sure." "There are some abnormalities in her MRI scan." "Damn it." "Take a look at this flash drive." "You should be able to figure something out." "Unidentified flying object detected!" "It's closing in on us!" "I'm going to hold that thing off!" "You're pretty good, but how about this?" "Your weakness is that you can't attack and defend your self at the same time!" "Aki!" "That's impossible ." "This is the final blow!" "wait!" "Stop!" "Hold your fire, immediately!" "Why?" "Aki's brain seems to be connected to that Zodiac robot." "Every shot you fire at that thing affects her." "That's nasty." "Mr. Stark!" "Mr. Stark!" "Come in, Stark!" "Tony." "I have to go." "Tony!" "No, Aki, you can't get up yet!" "Don't touch me!" "Tony's going to die, I have to save him!" "why you..." "I'm glad." "You're safe now, Tony." "Aki!" "Zodiac, I won't let you do anything else!" "what is this?" "Did it absorb her?" "The energy level is out of control It's gone berserk!" "Aki!" "what are you doing, Sakurai?" "Do you wish to die?" "Look at that!" "Activate the EMP barrier!" "Hurry!" "The EMP barrier!" "Good thinking, Chika!" "But the barrier won't hold for long." "At this rate, Aki doesn't stand a chance!" "You're waiting till she runs out of steam?" "Do you know how much damage that will cause in the meantime?" "Are you planning on risking everything for one girl" "Chika, this suit is protected against EMP, right?" "It should be able to handle that electromagnetic storm for a short while ." "That's correct." "In theory." "What are you doing?" "Saving Aki!" "It 's too dangerous!" "I have to try!" "That's crazy." "If I play with them, they'll be in danger." "Aki." "I'm glad." "You're safe now, Tony." "Stark!" "Aki." "Tony." "You came to help me." "Didn't I tell you I would ?" "we're friends." "Iron Man has evacuated the enemy machine!" "Both Mr. Stark and the little girl are safe!" "Raise the EMP shield to maximum output!" "Hold off the decay energy!" "Okay!" "Ready?" "Here I go!" "She's recovered." "Yeah, now she's just a normal little girl" "But..." "Sorry!" "Thanks a lot, mister!" "She doesn't remember you." "Or her powers." "It's all good." "She now has the chance to live a happy, normal life." "Now, come on!" "we have to complete the Arc Station for the kids." "Yes, Tony." "That kid sure looked happy." "It must mean she's doing well with her foster parents!" "Oh, yeah, Tony Stark made an important request." "He wants me to look into the activation of the Arc Reactor!" "I must be moving up in the world as a journalist if Tony Stark is asking me for information!" "Come on, Mr. Masuda, let's get going!" "Next time on Iron Man:" "Versus Iron Man!" "Wait, what does that mean?" "Next episode:" "#7:" "Versus Iron Man!"
