(After School, Yongen-Jaya, Hideout)
"We're "wanted" now, and the reward went up to 30 million yen", Ryuji stated, "what is this, a comic book",
"We're finally being treated as actual criminals", Ann stated
"My "what if's" were right, how President Okumura ranked first, the fad before that, even Medjed; it was to make the Phantom Thieves famous", Makoto stated, "on top of that, we were lured to target Okumura",
"The enemy likely planned to lay the blame on us from the start", Morgana stated, "after we gained popularity",
"Then what about everything we've done until now, were the hearts we changed actually corrupt or not", Ann asked
"No, because of Yusuke and I, the Madarame and Kaneshiro cases were coincidental", Makoto explained, "wasn't that the case with Kamoshida too",
"We were tricked by the cheapest trick", Ryuji grumbled
"So much time and effort has been put into this... President Okumura probably wasn't their only target", Makoto explained, "perhaps they intended to place all psychotic breakdowns on our group",
"That's why I said we shouldn't jump into things so carelessly", Yusuke yelled in anger
"What, so this is my fault, even you agreed to it in the end, and there was that thing with Haru at the time", Ryuji argued, "how're we s'posed to ignore that, huh",
"I'm sorry, this was all because I one-sidedly decided that my father was a criminal", Haru explained, "all I could think about was my fiancé, if I had only been able to cope with it more calmly",
"Haru, it's not your fault", Luna reassured
"Luna's right, I should've spoken up too when Principal Kobayakawa died", Ann stated as Ryuji began punching the couch in Akira's room in frustration but was stopped by Ann
"Why did we lose, what did we do wrong", Ryuji muttered
"We lost sight of our goal, we weren't ourselves at the time", Akira explained, "they took the opportunity and they baited us",
"Agreed, at the time, we only cared about the opinion of the general public", Yusuke stated
"Yeah, that really is it", Ann stated with a sigh, "what do we do now",
"We turn the tables", Akira stated standing up
"Yeah, I mean, we haven't lost yet", Luna stated as well, standing up in the process
"Yeah, running away with our tails between our legs is exactly what they want", Ryuji stated standing up, "that's the same as dumping our aesthetics again 'cause we only care about our hides",
"I can't and won't let it end like this, absolutely not like this", Futaba stated
"Looks like we're settled on what we want to do, all that's left is how we go about it", Morgana stated
"We'll have to team up with Akechi, and then hopefully get the truth, something was up about him yesterday, so be on guard", Akira stated as everyone nodded their heads as Akira contacted Akechi.
(The Next Day, After School, Courthouse)
"Alright, let's get started, Akechi, what did you find out", Morgana asked
"On the 20th, an investigation will likely be done at Shujin Academy, as well as the Sakura residence", Akechi stated
"For... real...", Futaba said in shock
"Then our time limit is November 20th", Yusuke stated
"However, if the operation is forced, I doubt It'll take place before the 20th", Akechi explained
