The whole studio took a step back, including the viewers. "I-I'm sorry, you're claiming she lied?" the anchor asked. Ryosuke nodded and glared at the woman next to him. "Yeah. She lied all right. She lied because we've known who raced last night, since the moment it happened. Everyone and their mother knows who raced last night, except us, even though we're supposed to be the authority on everything right now." Ryosuke stood up for a second and then sat back down before pointing. "This. You and her, it's why Japan's culture is dying. The institution's everyone relies on, are completely dead. Our tradition has instilled no sense of meaning or value to anyone because people like you two won't stop lying! There's no more honesty." "C-Cut." the anchor did a motion under his chin to the cameraman and cleared his throat. "C-Cut the feed." "I know these two idiot children because I've known them since they were young-" "Mr. Takahashi-" Ito tried to stop him. "Shut up." Ryosuke kept looking right at the camera. "These two boys are Fujiwara Seiichi and Thomas Friedland. They belong in a jail cell for the next three years, but because their fathers have political connections, they get to run scot-free!" Mako sipped her wine on her couch watching her husband spill everything that's been on his mind to thousands of people, including viewers in other countries who had heard of the incident. "We've become corrupt. Us, one of the most honorable cultures on the planet have let these two boys race! Race! We've failed to discipline two young men from two of the most prestigious families in the country! That's a sign of our failure to raise our children properly!" The anchor smiled to the camera. "We're out of time for today folks, tune in-" "No, this segment's at least five minutes." Ryosuke again showed another lie. "But here's the truth. Here's the truth," Ryosuke placed a finger on the glass table in front of him. "The truth is, that if we as parents, don't enforce the most important cornerstone of our society, which is our laws! Our country will fall apart! Our culture will fall apart!" "Our traditions have held Japan together for over a thousand years. I can't let it all fall apart because of two foolish boys!" Ryosuke pointed to the camera. "I know you're watching this Thomas. I'm taking that car back." Hiro and everyone else in Thomas' homeroom died of laughter and patted the embarrassed genius on the back. "Mr. Takahashi-" the anchor tried to reign in Ryosuke's outburst. "No! I'm taking that car back, you are the world's worst nephew! And you two Seiichi, you're getting an earful from me too!" Ryosuke yelled. "I'm driving to Saitama High right now! But before I go! I want to say this about street racing." Ryosuke took a deep breath and roared at the top of his lungs. "WE WILL NOT STAND FOR IT ANYMORE!" He slammed his fist down as strongly as he could while yelling, cracking the glass on the studio's table. And just like that, Ryosuke Takahashi became a living internet meme that became a hundred times as viral as the race between Seiichi and Thomas. The irony, the hypocrisy, the honesty that came from Ryosuke's mouth on live TV and his rage-fueled outburst became exactly what the internet wanted. A lust-filled answer for meaning. The video got posted on Youtube within two minutes and gained over a million views in under an hour. Comments streamed forth like a rushing river rapid.
