08 "Country of Radio Waves —Not Guilty—"

Looking to settle down rather than keep traveling, Shizu, Riku and Ti arrive in a dune buggy at a seemingly promising country after some investigation. While exploring the countryside, they are confronted by a murderer, but Shizu subdues him. The sheriff later informs Shizu that devices were implanted inside the heads of slaves to control them using radio waves centuries ago, and the citizens believe that the active radio outposts sometimes cause violent acts against one's will. Shizu skeptically volunteers to destroy a nearby radio outpost but finds it in complete ruins. After he takes photo evidence, the citizens are unable to accept that people have acted on their own impulses. This is interrupted when Ti grabs a baby from a mom and threatens to explode a hand grenade. Shizu then pretends to be affected by radio waves and takes the sheriff hostage. Shizu, Riku and Ti leave and release the sheriff beyond the border. The trio then arrive in a country with a high crime rate. While Shizu heads out for a job, Riku spends time with Ti, which includes eating a croissant with jam and going out for a long walk together, thereby becoming closer friends.
