What do I do?

Which one first?!

What do I do?

Hey!

Hey!

A robot's in our yard.

Oh, the verdict's today? See ya!

Sleek design, recipes from around the world.

Select a menu, and your chef does the work.

By your side. Digital with heart.

Atobit Systems.

Did you hear me?

A weird robot's in our yard.

It's creepy. Shoo it.

What is it? An android?

I could use one.

Not a game-addict husband.

A 30,000-recipe, trash-taking-out android.

If only we had the latest cooking android...

Only we don't.

I take out the trash.

Last time was two weeks ago.

Our trash doesn't fill up fast.

Because I take it out!

Huh? Oh, you do?

By the way, the back gate's still broken.

That's how that thing got in.

Hey.

Interview go okay?

You haven't told me yet.

Huh?

Ken?

Wait, where's my bagel?

Who wants a cooking android?

Not me.

Some machine roaming around inside...

Hey.

Hey!

What is this?

Where'd it come from?

Why come to our place?

Let go.

Let go!

What?

WH-AT?

Wait, you can talk?

Got a name?

NA-ME?

Oh, Ken.

KE-N.

Name.

TA-N-G.

Tang?

But damn...

You sure are a mess.

YOU SURE ARE A MESS.

What's messy about me?

Laugh it up, rust bucket.

Hey.

Quit laughing.

QUIT LAUGHING.

TANG AND ME

Don't copy me.

DON'T COPY ME.

You little...

Ken, where's its serial number?

Can't recycle it otherwise.

Beats me. It ain't mine.

Won't say where it's from or who owns it...

This'd be a great gate handle.

Huh? Somebody dumped it?

No power switch.

This looks like...

"Atobit Systems"?

Major android maker. Never seen this model...

Whatever. I'll take it.

I can strip it for parts.

I owe you one, dude!

KEN.

KEN...

Bye.

Huh?

Where'd it go?

Good grief, Ken!

Don't wander around looking so filthy,

like you leech off your breadwinning wife.

A hopeless parasite.

Sis.

You're as harsh as ever.

Like your makeup.

That reminds me.

Wasn't your interview yesterday?

Bye!

Soon you'll be an ex-deadbeat!

Why does he have to mess up everything?

Ken Kasugai's home?

Yes.

I'm Terayama from Hokuto Medical Center.

I'm calling about his job interview yesterday...

Whoa, you scared me.

You're still here.

Check this out. It'll be great.

I'll fix the back gate.

And this room?

"This'll be our kids' room."

Remember you said that?

This room?

Does it get enough sun though?

Plenty of sun.

Why skip that interview?

They called.

The hospital your sister set up.

Another chance to be an intern.

I forgot.

Tell me why!

Won't you become a doctor?

I will...

Was that a lie? What'll you do?

Hey, d-don't make that scary face.

No need to rush, because of...

Your inheritance? Life's easy?

I wouldn't say easy...

KEN.

Why's it still here?

Why's it still here?

That's weird. Huh? I mean...

I got rid of it. I got rid of it, but...

Wait a minute, look.

It looks kinda happy.

It's a robot. It doesn't have feelings.

Hey, time for work!

Won't you be late?

You better hurry.

You never do anything.

KEN!

Not now.

I'm the one who works.

I'm the one who cleans.

I wind this every morning too.

- KEN! - Shut up!

What do you ever do...

Oh yeah. I'll go fix the gate!

I'm sick of it!

You always run away.

How could you do that?

My dad's...

Then you wind it!

It's about time you moved on!

Your life...

Lay off me!

My life doesn't matter.

Then leave me out of it!

Hey, come on!

Don't come back!

What the heck?!

WHAT THE HECK?

What the heck?

"Don't come back," she said.

It's my parents' home.

Whoa...

You're leaking?

What a reject.

REJECT?

WHAT?

It means you're no good.

NO GOOD?

WHAT?

Because you leak.

Always part of your life. Humans and robots, side by side.

Special campaign on now.

"Exchange your robot..."

"for the latest model"?

If I exchange this thing for...

a present for Emi...

Sure, I shall guide you.

Look. What is that?

Well I never...

That's a piece of junk.

What a wreck.

Hey, look!

Hey, cut that out. Let's go.

You really stick out.

That's no compliment.

That robot's so outdated.

Come on, settle down already.

Space exploration began over 80 years ago,

and space debris is a growing problem.

The birth of a new life.

A chick appears.

To protect it from external threats, the mother...

We found it! The treasure!

Wow!

But the greatest treasure is...

friendship.

Ruka helps Yu.

Yu helps Ruka.

RUKA HELPS YU.

YU HELPS RUKA.

Hey kid, don't.

Little turd.

Little turd.

Did you just repeat...?

KEN, BAD WORD.

Little turd.

Mama! Mama!

KEN, BAD WORD.

Does he mean you?

I think so...

Little turd.

Quit that! Quit it!

Hey!

You only do dumb stuff, dumb robot!

You're useless. I'll dump you at the airport.

You clunker!

TANG NOT CLUNKER!

That burns!

We are now closed for today.

I came all this way for nothing.

This totally sucks!

What's that?

TREASURE.

Nobody uses coins now.

COINS...

WHAT?

Money.

Exchange for things you want.

NOBODY CAN...

TAKE IT FROM ME!

Nobody'll try, you reject.

Dammit...

NOBODY... TAKE TREASURE?

KEN!

KEN!

KEN, JUMP WITH ME!

Oh come on.

In your dreams!

I'm tired, okay?

It's about time you moved on!

She's a high-flying lawyer.

I'm just an out-of-work bum.

Vitals are dropping!

Can you hear me?

Blood sample, Doctor?

Losing consciousness.

What now?! Doctor!

Ken...

Can't feel his pulse. VF!

Intubation kit!

Can't measure saturation!

CV? PPN?!

Which one?! Tell us!

Which, Doctor?!

Did you do that?

Don't pretend to sleep!

I lugged you all this way, now no coffee?

No-good reject. No-good reject!

KEN, SCARY.

WAIT!

I'll finally be free...

I am terribly sorry.

We cannot accept a model that is not ours.

Huh? But...

It says "Exchange after inspection."

Non-applicable.

Listen, parts from your company are inside it.

It is non-applicable.

The first actual robot was created

in 1927, in the United States. Televox.

Later, humanoid robots were invented,

and in 1973, Japan's first robot that could...

Look! It's the oldest robot!

It's so cute!

It's so cute!

CUTE?

WHAT THAT?

THIS WAY?

WHICH WAY?

Is it one of ours?

NO!

What are you doing?!

Oh, a ladybug!

Wow, yeah!

A ladybug!

It flew off!

BYE BYE!

Bye bye!

See you!

You're... its owner?

Er, yes.

May I...

take a closer look?

Come in.

A drink?

Thank you. Coffee.

I don't ingest caffeine.

I have herb tea, soy milk,

and shiitake tea.

I'll pass then.

Actually, my specialty is design.

Stop that!

Strangely, I'm sometimes asked to give tours.

Stop!

Presumably for...

my looks.

Oh sure.

What's this?

It seems to be leaking.

One moment.

KEN, WHAT THAT?

A bird?

BIRD...

WHAT THAT?

Sweets.

SWEETS.

WHAT THAT?

Narcissist.

What on earth...

What could that liquid be?

It could be many things.

Lubricant,

coolant,

or fuel.

If this runs out,

Tang will break down.

It'll cease to function. I'm sure of it.

Okay.

I patched it up.

TREASURE!

Curiosity?

BIRD!

LITTLE BIRD. BIG BIRD!

Empathy for living things...

Imagination.

Tang is...

special somehow.

S-Special?

Far beyond AI as we know it.

That thing?! It's totally useless.

You gotta be kidding me.

I think,

whoever used our parts to build it

was in a hurry,

or intended to upgrade it later.

They used what they had.

KEN! NARCISSIST!

Who built it...

and what for?

"My dear friends.

"Can any of you fix this robot?

It says... its name is Tang."

I knew it.

Wow! What is that?!

I might be able to fix Tang!

Dr. Rin Otsuki.

D-Doctor?

She's a sure bet.

A robotic engineering expert,

at the world's largest space science museum.

A museum?

Oh, near here?

In Shenzhen.

In China.

China?!

Whoa, that's way too far...

If I could leave it here...

If you did,

Tang would inevitably

break down for good.

Are you sure?

TANG.

LITTLE BIRD.

What'll it be?

FRIEND.

Um... Is there somewhere nearby

where I can get a cup of coffee?

China's too far, and I'm stuck with the robot.

What am I gonna do now?

KEN.

WHAT THAT?

A festival maybe.

FESTIVAL!

Where are you now?

TREASURE!

It's hot, so take care.

KEN!

KEN!

That's for me?

TANG,

HELP KEN.

KEN,

HELP TANG.

Delicious.

Shall we go to Shenzhen?

GO!

WE GO!

KEN! TANG! KEN! TANG!

Any word from Ken?

Nothing at all.

Maybe he's keeping his distance,

in case you get mad again,

and smash something else next time.

I know.

Seems I'm always angry lately.

I hate being that way.

Well, it's understandable.

He's way too dependent on you.

When we first met,

he wanted to be a doctor.

He said so with a big grin.

But after what happened to your father,

he changed...

He's got you.

He'll be fine.

I'm sure Dad... knows that too.

You've been a rock for me as well.

There's...

something he doesn't know.

You're looking?

For a robot?

KEN, HURRY!

Don't wander off.

KEN, LOOK!

AMAZING!

PRETTY!

What are you doing, Tang?

Quit playing, let's go.

We've arrived in Shenzhen.

It's here somewhere. Shouldn't take too long.

Yes sir. We're on it.

Hey. Enough lollygagging. We outta here.

Hey. Our ride's this way.

Oh, careful!

Hey...

Dr. Otsuki, right?

Oh! Ken Kasugai!

Kasuken for short.

You're Tang?

You made it! I'm so glad to meet you!

Er, thanks.

Don't be so shy!

Some tour options today.

1: Cruise, then fortune tellers. 2: Lookout, then fortune tellers.

3: Gardens, then fortune tellers. Which one?

Are fortune tellers a must?

Shenzhen is fortune-telling heaven,

so enjoy it, Kasuken!

Um, mind calling me something else?

Okay, Ken! When's your birthdate?

In astrology, your birth sign...

Hey, let's forget about me.

If you can help with Tang...

Huh?

Where'd it go?

TREASURE!

TREASURE!

Target captured.

We'll stand by at the warehouse.

Too easy.

No chance to try this out.

Hey. Watch it.

Can't risk damaging the robot.

Know what my professional motto is?

Your what?

When I do my thing...

I get it done!

Huh?

I set it too high?

Yo.

You tried that on me.

As if I would!

But you did.

Well, you got promoted, and you're a pain in the butt, but...

You really did. Any more reasons?

I wanna eat Chinese.

Psycho.

- Tang? - Tang?

KEN!

Tang?

Whoa, what the... Stop!

Hey!

KEN!

Tang!

KEN!

Tang!

Here! Throw it!

Quickly!

KEN!

What's going on...

My entry pass is GPS-equipped.

It stopped!

North-northwest... Bad vibes.

I knew it. "Bad fortune."

We need to hurry.

Where is Tang?

Warehouse district.

Someone's trying to kidnap it.

That reject?

It's not worth a single yen.

I wouldn't be so sure.

Tang might have an autonomous whole brain archi...

Wait, wait.

That's gibberish to me.

Well, to put it simply,

in AI, first-generation machine learning is common.

Like this.

Navigate to our destination.

Understood.

Next is second-gen deep learning,

enabling more advanced processing.

Learning ability beyond we humans.

But Tang might be capable of

a whole new level of AI.

Third-gen machine learning.

Th-Third-gen?

Independent will. Learning and maturing.

A versatile intellect. Essentially...

Almost human?

Hence the abduction.

Someone wants it. That makes sense.

Whoa, sorry!

- Oh, Ken! - Yeah?

You're married.

Oh, well, more or less.

Should've brought your wife.

She's got work.

I hereby announce

that Emi Yamashina...

is now an associate! Congrats!

Thank you so much!

Pop the champagne, Emi.

Here goes!

Nice catch!

Yeesh...

Parties can be daunting.

Thank you.

I mean,

what's this party all about anyway?

Sorry.

We're celebrating me making associate.

My bad.

- You work with my sister? - Right.

But I'm not ready for this.

Mostly, it scares me.

I know the feeling.

I mean...

I'm a medical intern. Just started.

I lack skill, experience...

Pretty much everything.

But even so,

I still want to help people.

I'm sure it'll work out.

You take this.

From now on,

when times get tough,

think "It'll all work out,"

look at this,

and remember this day.

I appreciate it.

You're welcome.

- This way. - Okay...

Hide!

In there...

Oh, sorry! Wait! I got a call!

Sorry, not now...

This won't take long.

Oh, Emi...

I'm...

leaving this house.

Huh?

So you can...

come back when you want.

S-Sorry, what do you mean?

I've had enough.

I'm sick of babysitting you.

Thanks to you vanishing,

I feel a lot better.

I want to break up.

I want this to be over.

I understand.

So...

Let me guess.

Fighting with your wife?

Am I right?

She's leaving me.

She wants it to be over.

Well, I'm cool with that.

You lack confidence,

cling to the past, and bravado.

You reading my fortune?

No.

Not your fortune.

Ken.

At times like these...

Run!

Er, okay!

Looks great.

You hear something?

You hallucinating?

Your promotion obsession is driving you crazy.

You're the psycho.

Anyway, this is just a crappy little robot.

What's so special about it?

Yo.

What are you called?

KEN...

Ken?

It's "Ken," huh?

Hey little Ken! Ken buddy!

Gimme paw!

Yo, it ain't a dog.

Who's this "Ken"?

FRIEND.

Friend my butt.

Robots ain't got friends.

Man, I'm starving.

My noodles are getting cold.

Let's sink some beers.

Nah, we can't drink. Not on the job.

You can't.

Or you.

Tang!

KEN!

CANNOT GET OUT.

There must be a card key.

Ken!

Are you kidding me?!

Hurry!

Stop right there.

That robot...

cannot belong to you.

It's them!

Dr. Kato!

You made it.

Wh-Who are you guys?

I told you to keep watch!

I did! He insisted on boozing it up.

You lying little...

As I thought.

The neurochip.

This is it.

Professor Baba's...

Professor Baba?

That can't be!

Where was it?

Who gave you it?!

What the heck is it?

You cannot comprehend the magnitude of this situation.

We shall...

retrieve this unit.

Why?!

LET GO!

If you wish to take this further,

I will be unable to let you go.

NO WAY!

What now?

LET GO!

That thing's no use to me.

I'll dump you like trash!

You... clunker!

TANG NOT CLUNKER!

Yee-ouch!

Tang!

Give it up!

It works even better than I...

Gotta go. Now!

Will that guy be okay?

HE MAKE SOUND.

OKAY.

What'd you say?

It hears his heartbeat...

I'll call the police. Take Tang.

But...

To robotics expert Masahiko Baba.

Find him. Get him to fix Tang.

Now run!

Come back here!

But...

don't run from your wife.

Good luck.

We should be far enough away now.

KEN...

WA... IT...

What's wrong?

Let me look inside.

If this runs out,

Tang will break down.

There's no time. I gotta fix it.

Mr. Kasugai?

Yes...

My name is Baba.

I understand you have something of mine.

Yes, here.

James!

Thank heavens you're safe.

"James"?

Yes. I made him.

Um, er... He's broken.

This is cracked!

Oh dear. I'll fix him right away.

Please do.

He appears to be overheating.

Let him rest a while, and he should recover.

CLOUD. WHITE.

BLUE. SEA.

Tang.

At an android lab called Cybernetics Asia,

I was in charge of a project.

To create the ultimate versatile AI.

However, there was an accident...

An accident?

James is, in a way, the only survivor.

Then one day, he disappeared from my home.

James, hurry home to me.

I promise to fix you.

Your home is with me.

You'll be home soon.

Professor Baba's waiting.

I RIDE THAT!

No you won't. We didn't come to play.

Welcome to our undersea world!

I'll be your guide...

KEN. FISHIES!

That's a lot of fishies.

BLUE. RED.

BLUE. RED. BLUE. RED.

BLUE. RED.

Got a name?

NA-ME?

TA-N-G.

KEN.

KEN.

KEN! TANG! KEN! TANG!

BLUE. RED.

MANY!

Happy now? Let's go.

NO WAY.

ONE MORE RIDE.

Tang.

NOT WANT TO GO.

NO WAY.

NO WAY. NO WAY...

Why do you do stuff like that?

You're going home. Gotta clean you up.

Don't wander off again.

Do what the professor says...

NO WAY.

GO HOME WITH KEN!

Not with me.

I can't save you.

YOU CAN!

I can't.

I couldn't back then either.

My old man...

OLD MAN?

I was a medical intern.

Understand? Medical intern.

IV route ready!

Emergency cart!

- VT! - Vitals are dropping!

Can you hear me? Can you?

Blood sample?

The other doctors?

Emergency surgery.

Then...

Heparin. Check blood pressure.

Preparing Heparin.

Losing consciousness.

Actually, Lidocaine, 100...

Which, Doctor?!

- Pulse? Breathing? - Weakening!

What now?! Doctor!

DC? Adrenalin?!

Ken!

Get it from the cart. Now!

Get it!

- Blood pressure? - 60 over 32.

Vasopressor, Doctor?

I can't feel his pulse. VF!

Can't measure saturation! What now?!

Intubation kit!

I was so afraid...

I didn't know what to do.

Do something! Move!

Cardiac massage! Get help!

Yes Doctor!

Prepare intubator! DC!

Adrenalin!

In the end, he never recovered.

Ever since...

I just can't trust myself.

I'm stuck, too scared to move.

I can't be what Emi...

wants me to be.

So,

it's really me who's no good, and a reject.

NO-GOOD REJECT?

Yeah, a no-good reject.

KEN,

HELP TANG.

TANG,

HELP KEN.

KEN! TANG! KEN! TANG!

Let's go.

James!

Welcome home!

Go on, Tang.

"Tang"?

I mean, James.

Mr. Kasugai?

Thank you so much for finding this little one.

Thank you.

Tired? Come in, have some tea.

This way!

Bioethanol.

This is the fuel James runs on.

Just need to...

replace this...

and we're done.

Lucky you.

James, come to me, okay?

Come on, come to me.

WHO HE?

Do you...

mind if I ask about its past?

Some...

kind of accident...

GO HOME WITH KEN.

Come James, come.

At this rate, I won't be able

to inspect him.

He seems to have lost his memory.

Okay, I should get going...

Oh, sure.

See ya. Er, James.

NO WAY!

Let him fix you.

NO WAY!

I can't have you around.

YOU CAN!

You cause trouble, and behave badly.

I BEHAVE!

I BE GOOD!

KEN!

I'm finally...

free of this nuisance...

for good.

Goodbye.

KEN!

NOT... FRIEND?

KEN!

Hey!

The robot?

Where's the neurochip?

Baba has it?!

Well, Professor Baba made...

Please.

Listen carefully.

Five years ago, there was an accident...

at the android lab where I work.

I heard. Tang's the only survivor.

James.

Glad you made it back.

That day, the world's most advanced androids...

were being trained to shoot firearms.

"Shoot"?

Androids?

For export overseas.

Developed in secret for military use.

Then...

Out of nowhere, one of the androids, James,

began to feel fear.

An emotion presumed to be beyond his capabilities.

That android had become much more human.

It was a miraculous moment.

Baba did not try to stop James' panic attack.

Then, an accident occurred.

Baba seized that miracle for himself.

He stole James' neurochip...

and ran.

He incinerated everything.

To further his research,

he'll stop at nothing. He's dangerous.

James.

Your neurochip is everything to me.

Another failure?

Now...

come to me. I'll start over.

Give me your neurochip.

NO WAY!

James.

The incident was covered up as an accident.

After that,

Baba's research was frozen,

and he went into hiding.

All this time,

we've hunted that stolen chip.

Then we found out about Tang, and...

I'm sorry,

for threatening you...

Hey, come back!

Hey!

Don't go alone!

Hey!

Tang!

Come out, James!

Tang!

KEN!

TANG, REMEMBER!

PROFESSOR NEED CHIP.

TRY TO DESTROY TANG!

SO, TANG RAN.

SCARY. SCARY!

Calm down, Tang.

Let's get out of...

Its memory wasn't entirely erased.

I'm grateful to you.

I've monitored you, all this time.

Luckily, you're more of a reject than I thought.

Here! Throw it!

Quickly!

Being with a foolish human

taught it random thinking, enhancing its tactical ability.

I'm taking Tang.

"Tang"?

No such thing exists.

Once it turns experiential data into knowledge,

I erase all extraneous memories,

and make it relearn, over and over again.

That accumulation will one day

create an ideal future...

No.

A new future for humanity.

Do not misinterpret my actions.

AI is for liberating humankind. It is merely...

a tool.

Throughout the ages,

humans created value and wealth through labor.

We've also fought each other

to seize that limited wealth.

Principles and ideology

are nothing but excuses.

All wars

are economic wars.

However,

AI will produce unlimited wealth.

As a result, needless wars,

suffering,

and inequality will end.

Why can't you understand?!

KEN!

NO WAY!

Get off him!

Tang...

Let's get out...

KEN!

KEN! YOU OKAY?

Now then, James.

Time to clear your memory cache,

and resume my research.

I don't know much about wealth and war, but...

if you get your way,

Tang won't be Tang anymore.

It's only a robot.

Simmer down. Let go!

Tang is...

KEN.

My... dear...

friend.

Shut it, reject.

Worthless runts who can't evolve...

get eliminated!

NO!

KEN.

TANG.

RUN.

HURRY.

Tang!

Tang?

Tang!

Tang!

Hey!

You hear me?! Hey!

What's wrong?!

He's not moving!

But I put a new one in!

Be calm.

Ready? Listen carefully.

His power line perhaps.

Check harness integrity.

Harness?!

Check the battery cable!

It's severed!

- Reconnect it. - How?!

Look around you!

Yes. Use it instead of solder.

It's done.

Into the core unit.

Which port?

I don't know.

Only Baba does.

Get it wrong, you'll short the core unit.

You mean...

It'll destroy his entire system.

All or nothing.

Connect it,

or give up and take the chip.

What'll it be?

There's no time!

What'll you do?!

Tang...

help Ken.

Ken...

help Tang.

KEN! TANG! KEN! TANG!

Tang?

You okay, Tang?

His memory...

is gone?

Tang?

It's me.

Ken.

What's wrong?

Remember, Tang.

Go on.

Say it like always.

"Tang"!

You don't remember...?

You've got to...

Tang!

You're just tired.

Your name is...

Tang.

You lived here before.

But you got scared...

of Professor Baba,

and this place.

So you ran away.

And then...

Who knows how, but you came to me.

"Tanigawa Racehorse Transport"

Hey!

What is this?

FOUND YOU.

TANG...

FOUND... KEN.

TANG...

LOVE... KEN.

I love you too...

Tang.

We'll interrogate him at HQ.

As a scientist,

I looked up to you, but...

Now I pity you.

I'll take it back, just you wait.

My ideal future.

Baba got caught, so...

Do I get promoted?

What's this?

You gonna pin it on me again?

Huh? You got me all wrong, dude!

We're buddies!

Right, buddies.

Gotta get me reassigned.

About the chip that Tang's carrying.

As you know, it belongs to our lab.

But if you would agree

to add your name to our team,

that'd change everything.

How exactly?

You'd take care of Tang, raise him,

and send us reports.

Accept that responsibility...

and you two can stay together.

Tang grew this much thanks to you.

The way we see it,

placing him in your care

will enable him to gather useful data.

That being said,

your family must agree as well.

Discuss it thoroughly with your wife.

Tang.

WHAT?

Let's go home.

I'm home.

I'M HOME.

You're back.

The clock...

You got it fixed.

I won't wind it again.

Little turd.

NO! NOT THAT!

What the heck?!

I'm just an out-of-work bum.

NOT THAT...

Listen up, Tang.

We're going home.

But I won't...

have time to play...

like before.

WHY NOT PLAY?

I'm gonna...

become a doctor.

DOCTOR?

WHAT THAT?

I'd fix people's bodies,

and heal them.

HEAL?

When wounds mend.

WOUNDS...

MEND?

So...

It might take years, but,

I'll tell Emi someday.

That I'm okay now.

Listen up, Tang.

That's enough.

That's enough!

Enough!

Actually...

Forget "someday."

When it counts,

I won't run.

I'll move on... with my life.

I'm sorry, for everything.

I'll believe in myself again...

and move on.

Without you,

I'm no good.

"It'll all work out."

You...

brought Ken home?

Thank you,

Tang.

YOU MAKE SOUND.

HEART.

TWO.

"Two"?

That's right.

Another one.

I couldn't tell you.

If I have to,

I'll do everything myself.

But...

I know you'll be a great dad.

KEN.

Hey...

I'm okay.

I'm, you know...

Just leaking.

NO.

KEN...

HEALING.

You're right, Tang.

You really are...

special.

Sweet dreams, Tang.
