Akane looks for more information about Shinya from Shuusei and Enforcer Shion Karanomori, and learns about Mitsury and the cold Specimen Case.

Shinya gives her some guitar strings which remind her of Rina Takizaki, a guitarist she admired. When the club they are investigating is set ablaze after Sasayama approaches culprits dealing in Molotov cocktails, Yayoi searches for Rina and discovers that she is part of a resistance group selling Molotov cocktails to overthrow the Sybil System.

Akane agrees to undergo a "memory scoop" to provide an image of Makishima based on her memories of the incident, despite warnings that it may damage her Psycho-Pass.

Unit One later learns that criminals wearing the same helmets robbed an armored car. Shinya theorizes that the second crime would have a motive; this leads their investigation to Jyunmei Itoh, who had a grudge against the victim.

After the power is shut down, Shinya sneaks into the facility whilst Akane and Yayoi head to the control room in case Makishima tries to activate the emergency power.
