Previously on Kamen Rider W...
I'll get revenge on them too using the power of this Memory.
Aya was the Dopant...?
You allowed a wild animal that we had finally managed to capture to escape back into the city.
Aya! Is this what you've decided to live for!?
A tragic woman, consumed with revenge... I'll save you.
This must be a new weapon for me to use...
Time to break through!
What's up? Queen, Elizabeth..
We've got a case. We came to hire you.
What kind of case? A Dopant?
It's not a Dopant!
It's Fuutic Idol!
Fuutic Idol?
What the heck's that?
No way... how can you guys not know about it?
Fuutic Idol!
Fuutic Idol...
...is a singing competition that let's it's viewers vote on it's contestants.
After outlasting the competition...
Once you've made it through three rounds successfully you're given the chance to record a debut CD.
We made it to the third round before.
kimi datte kimeta no Boyfriend
I've decided you're gonna be my boyfriend

Strongest, in love, all the time, only you, yeah, yeah!
Love is strong... girls go on!
Love is strong, Yeah Yeah
Love is strong... girls go on!
Now if these two manage to make it through this round, they'll be recording their first CD...
That felt good to me!
Yep! We're totally going to get to record a CD...
That was total, absolute, garbage!
There's no shortage of singers that can sing as well as you two. That makes you pretty disposable.
You're not gonna stir anybody's heart...
Unless you can shout better than that!
No way...
We were prepared for that kind of criticism, because that's the kind of show it is but...
Except for the fact that this Jimmy Nakata who beat us was super lame!
You need to defend our honor and prove that something was up with the judging!
Well...
Doesn't that just mean that Jimmy guy was better than you?
Then take a listen.
It'll kill you.
Totally kill you.
Huh? Do you think that's him?
Hello. I'm Jimmy Nakata...
Huh... he's pretty good looking!
This might be good!
Today...
I'm going to sing a song full of love for you again.
Dedicated to the whole world, all around me!
I hope you enjoy it...
"Fuuto Tower."
Here he goes again!
Oh hell, he's back at it!
1, 2...
What is it? What's going on? What's happening?
1, 2, 3, 4!
Comin' comin' comin' comin'...
What is it?
Comin' comin' comin' comin' you're comin' at me!
Lookin' lookin' lookin' lookin' right at me!
Lookin' lookin' lookin' lookin' like I'm gonna fall for you!
This affection...
Twistin' twistin' twistin' twistin' me up inside!
Wanna wanna wanna wanna embrace you!
Dyin' dyin' dyin' dyin'...
What is this!? My stomach hurts! I feel sick!
I... can't...
I can't breathe!
There's no doubt about it... if this "killer" song was able to make the grade...
Pretty much anybody would suspect there's something up with that show...

"Jimmy Nakata."
Nice to meet you.
Real name, Nakata Jiro, nineteen years old...
The rumors didn't do his singing justice...
And I mean that in the worst way possible.
Nice to meet you.
Jimmy...
I gotta ask you...
What exactly was that song?
I couldn't tell what genre it was...
It's spilk.
Spilk?
Short for "Spinning-to-Folk."
I start with a folky sound, and then use some of the more high energy parts from rap and rock...
That just makes me more confused...
It must be hard for someone with an old-fashioned style to understand...
What was that?
Jimmy's right!
I mean, people didn't really understand rock or other types of music when they first started out.
If you wanna listen to Jimmy's music...
You need to do your homework!
Here!
No way! Even a loser like this has fans...
Thanks again...
Jimmy!
Here, I got these for you.
Oh, and can I get your autograph again?
Thank you!
This little twerp...
No wonder just looking at him was pissing me off...
Because... he kind of reminds me of myself.
Oh, Saeko.
Where are you headed?
There was a bit of a mess to clean up from the last incident...
You mean with the W Memory's--
Leave it to me.
He must be quite appealing...
I'd personally like to avoid him as much as possible.
The blooming of new love, eh?
That didn't take long.
Well, Saeko's a grown woman.
I'm sure she's capable of good judgement.
Oh, Fuutic Idol is starting!
And in contrast, I'd say you've got a bit of growing to do still, Wakana...
Oh Father, this show is actually quite entertaining!
Hurrrrrry upppp!
Now, we'll see the judging of Jimmy Nakata, who is competing for the second time...
Magnificent. There's no other word for it.
Magnificent!
Brilliant artistic expression like this defies description.
I've got no complaints.
And what a turn of events!
Another exquisite display of "Spilk!"
It's like being carried by waves of unfathomable majesty...
It looks like Spilk is getting some big praise!
No...
The crowd's reaction is normal...
What a terrible song!
But Detective Terui...
Do you really think the "Clown of the Radio Waves" is in here?
Well if something's wrong, it's gotta be with the judges...
Let's test it firsthand...
Now today we have a special event, an Open Mic Challenger Battle!
Everyone in the audience is ready to sing today!
And selecting the challenger will be judge, Oonuki Ichirota!
You there!
The one waving that red scarf!
It's just as I had deduced!
Oonuki Ichirota has a markedly higher probability of selecting someone to his right, with red clothing!
Now, let's go Shotaro!
Wait, Phillip, are you gonna--
Yes, I will.
Because we are the two-in-one Masked Singers!
What the hell!?
Looks like we have our lucky competitor selected...
But what will they be singing? I'm just as excited to see as you ladies and gentlemen,
and here we go, onto the stage!
It doesn't matter who tries to challenge him...
Because Jimmy Nakata is a natural!
Are you the crook known as the "Radiowave Clown?"
Who are you?
I'm the one who's asking the questions here.
ACCEL
Transform!
ACCEL
And now, challenging Jimmy will be the mysterious duo, Masked Singers!
Mr. Detective...
You're just an amateur, and you're trying to outdo me?
That's not it, he just kind of dragged me along...
I've already looked into what your best karaoke song is.
They'll be singing a hot local favorite, "Finger on the Trigger."
Ahh dammit, I might as well!
Breeze!
It's burning up the Heats on
A Hero with the weight of the city on his soul
This dead-end world will Freeze
There's a burning Heart in 2 Pieces
A Generation grasping onto a new wind
It's the start of a new Nation that hasn't fell apart yet
And the multi-color Attack is coming at you!
And it's gonna shine a light on this all!
In this city where evil seems to breed
Let the moon glow gold!
Move it down your finger!
Finger on the Trigger!
Blow away all of that conceit!
Wind is Blowing! With your Feeling!
Put that self-control to use
And shoot 'em up to shut them down!
Move it down your finger!
The Bullet is Running!
Detective!? Wh-What's he doing!?
Finger on the Trigger!
Just act the way you always do!
I have totally not heard anything about this!
But y'know...
Wind is Blowing! What are you Seeking?
And in the end aren't you the only one
Who can pull that trigger?
They're...
They're enjoying it...
This is that detective!
Oh my God, and is that Phillip!?
Freak!!
You can hear the gunfire Bang!!
It's the two same lessons to learn
My, you're so big and strong!
You're making my heart a-flutter!
Cut the crap.
What Memory are you using?
Answer me.
Love.
It's love! I'm a warrior of love!
And you're not gonna be able to scratch me with that sword!
Care to test that theory?
ENGINE
MAXIMUM DRIVE
Despair is waiting for you on the other side of the finish line.
My Memory! It's gonna be shattered!
I guess the main body managed to escape...
Just who was that?...
Well this should at least keep them from getting in more trouble...
You're the winner!
Jimmy Nakata!
What the hell kind of call is that!?
It's nuts, right!? Right!? No matter how you cut it, the detective was better!
Mr. Detective...
You were better than I figured.
But you understand now, right?
It's the era of Spilk right now.
Jimmy...
I'm gonna be straight with you.
There's no way you should be able to win this thing with your singing.
Something weird is going on here.
You shouldn't be such a sore loser.
Everyone!
Thanks so much.
I hope you continue to enjoy my music.
My Spilk!
There's no hope for that guy...
The Radiowave Clown?
Yeah.
Some kind of mystery man who deals in fraud...
It seems that there's been quite a few victims who've been through hell because of him.
We heard some rumors about sightings of him at the TV studio, so we were looking into it.
And it turns out he's a Dopant...
I bet he was involved in Jimmy winning too.
I imagine he was controlling the judges somehow...
But how would he have managed that...?
Well, he won't be able to do it again.
His Memory is smashed...
Take a look.
That's...
Not a Gaia Memory.
Most likely he had you in some sort of delusion.
The Dopant is still active.
If he thinks he can screw with me...
Serves you right!
Mr. Elite.
Where do you get off mocking me?
That hurts! Don't blame me for your mistakes!
You two! That's enough!
Phillip.
We need to determine his Memory.
I need your help.
Very well.
Where are you going?
I'm gonna look for Jimmy.
I feel bad about leaving that dumbass to fend for himself...
He's got barely a lick of sense but tries to show off...
When you say that...
...doesn't it strike you as a little ironic?
Shut up!
Santa, you seen Jimmy around?
Not lately.
Hey you guys.
Here, take a seat.
Thanks.
Mr. Sachio here is a poet...
And kind of the leader of all the street artists.
Jimmy, eh?...
Y'know, with him...
Only his dreams were significant.
But it's too much for him...
Here you two go.
IT'S OKAY TO BE HALF-BOILED
IT'S OKAY TO BE BANKRUPT
That is not okay.
That is not okay!
They're on the house.
Use them to help keep perspective.
Well, thanks!
Wait, what about Jimmy's fan girl?
Although she looked kinda middle aged...
Oh yeah...
Maybe she knows where he is?
I saw her the other day!
This is around where he said but...
Isn't this it?
Ah, this must be it.
Hey Sumita!
Don't shift your weight so hard!
You're gonna hurt yourself!
It's fine, leave me alone!
She fell!
Clown...
Stinger...
And suggestion...
That's a start.
Any other keywords?
It's hard to take anything he said at face value...
The way it spoke...
It was a real clown of a Dopant.
The way it spoke?
There should be nothing else to worry about.
Try and take better care of yourself.
I'm going to recommend some nutritional supplements and some sleeping medicine to help you get better rest...
It's alright.
I don't have the money to pay for medicine, or the time to rest.
Hey...
Weren't you listening to the doctor?
If you end up getting hurt again there's no point in letting you go.
It's already this late!? I need to get going!
Hey wait!
I need to ask you...
Were you the one who made it so that Jimmy would get selected?
What're you saying?
Quit making up excuses!
He...
Jimmy is a natural musician!
What's the point in lying like that?
Do you honestly think that's gonna help him?
Shut up already! It's not for his sake.
It's for my sake.
There's nothing else that I enjoy.
I need Jimmy...
In order to keep going!
Don't follow me!
Leave me alone!
I'm afraid I can't do that.
You gotta tell me the truth.
This is the Dopant Terui mentioned...
I brought the money like you asked!
I'm counting on you to take care of it again!
She was having the Dopant make sure that Jimmy won...
That's right!
I'm the clown of the radiowaves after all!
But you know...
That's not enough!
You think that chump change is gonna be enough to pay to get him through to the finals!?
Please! I'll get the money! So please!
Give me a week--
Don't be such a baby.
As of today, the contract is cancelled.
Life's harder than you thought, huh?
Yeah, and you're about to find out how!
This way!
Let go!
Come on!
Let me tell you something interesting...
I am your master.
I've had it up to hear with your ridiculous lies.
Hidari, the Memory he's using is "Liar."
Liar?
As in someone who tells lies?
By stinging people with needles caused by his speech, he's able to make people believe whatever he says.
So he made the judges believe that Jimmy was awesome...
And that's how he was winning?
This seems kind of bad for me...
Should I start running, you think?
Enough jokes. Let's go, Phillip!
Right.
CYCLONE
JOKER
Transform!
CYCLONE JOKER
Hold it, you!
ENGINE
This is payback for making a fool of me.
ELECTRIC
His special ability is worrisome...
We just gotta be careful about those needles right?
LUNA
TRIGGER
LUNA TRIGGER
Alright, time for a Memory Break.
Wait!
Don't beat him!
If you beat him, then Jimmy won't be able to win!
Ms. Yukiho, what're you talking about!?
She's right.
We need to beat this guy, and then next time Jimmy can compete on his own.
He wouldn't stand a chance!
Do you know how long I've been watching him!?
He... he... he's so untalented that it's unbelievable!
Jimmy...
The clinic is closed for today...
Ms. Sonozaki.
But the underground operations are just starting...
Dr. Isaka.
WEATHER
Why is Jimmy here...?
I called him down.
It's punishment for not paying me enough!
It's a lie...
I won on my own...
That has to be a lie!
Sorry kid.
Turns out that you winning was the real lie.
Jimmy...
Kamen Rider W
What a nice color...
It's the color of youthful frustration!
Would you mind if I examined you?
Hello! I'm the clown of the radio tower!
That settles it!
