That's not it! It's not magic but....
I can really disappear.
I've got you now.
The man with the W Memory, who took everything from me...
Isaka Shinkuro!
You can't do a Twin Maximum Drive!
The rest's up to you...
My revenge comes first.
There's only one way that we can save Lily Shirogane...
RIDER TWIN MAXIMUM
Hey Akiko...
Why are you so tired?
Because of this.
Saheiji of the Wind... the Panic Revenger?
It's super popular!
It was as good as they said it was, and before I realized it, it was morning.
I bet Shotaro gets hooked on this too.
Sorry, but that historical stuff isn't my style.
I'd fall asleep in five minutes.
Please help me, I can't sleep!
That's the kind of thing you bring up to a doctor, not a detective...
That's not it!
I'm so scared that I can't sleep!
You're scared of...?
What was that!?
I have it set to go off every thirty minutes...
Because if the dream monster gets ahold of you, you'll never wake up again...
Monster?
Right.
Something like this...
There were six boys in the same lab as me at my college.
They were caught by the dream monster, and now they won't wake up...
So, it's a Dopant that appears in people's dreams?
If that's true, then it's exceedingly fascinating.
To be able to enter other peoples dreams...
The mere idea of it would seem absurd.
I haven't gotten any real sleep in days...
Whoa!
There's no need to worry.
I'll definitely keep you safe.
Could it be that you're THE prince of my dreams?
Prince?

Episode 29
Nightmarish H
The Melancholy of Sleeping Beauty
/
Our client is Yukimura Himeka.
A lovely lady on par with a princess like Snow White.
She's been working on dream research at this university.
So this is it...
A child cried about having had a nightmare!
His father asked him if he fought in it!
And when he responded saying that he was afraid, and ran away...
His father ordered him not to run the next time!
Do you understand why, Fukushima?
No, professor!
Because being able to overcome fear within your dreams is the first step to being able to control them!
Control your dreams?
Correct!
Many tribal cultures undertook training and were eventually able to gain control of their dreams.
Splendid, isn't it?
I'm Hidari Shotaro, a private detective.
I've got a few questions for you.
I'll handle the questions.
Ryu!
I'm Terui with the Fuuto Police Special Crimes Unit.
And I'm Makura!
A private detective and the police?
Professor Akagi...
The six students who were struck with this sleeping disease...
...were all students of yours, correct?
Yes.
They were researching lucid dreaming with me.
Lucid dreaming?
Lucid Dreaming...
...is the ability to realize that you're dreaming while you're dreaming.
We were studying the brainwaves of people as they slept...
...in an attempt to decipher the mysteries of lucid dreaming.
And your students became test subjects and never woke up, is that it?
They're only still asleep because they couldn't cope with the experiment!
This research isn't easy, after all.
Where's the equipment for this project?
This here.
When the subject is asleep, their brain activity is recorded on the computer over here.
Whoaaa...
Well then, would you allow us to use that device then?
You can't!
If you do, the dream monster will...
Don't worry.
We will confront the dream monster head on and exterminate him.
In that case, I'm in too.
Such courage!
I'm really impressed!
Could you be my destined prince?
Looks like she'll do that to anybody...
Please don't get the wrong idea!
That's just our Himeka's way of being nice.
O-Our Himeka?
The culprit is Professor Akagi!
He's a classic mad scientist!
For the sake of his research, he became a dream-controlling Dopant!
Nothing suspicious.
A totally normal piece of equipment.
We just gotta test it then.
If the Dopant shows up in my dream, I'll nab it and get it to cough up the truth.
Then it's case closed!
I doubt it'll be that simple...
If you notice anything strange with me, wake me up.
Yes sir, leave it to us.
Dammit!
I'm too self-conscious to sleep.
Oh yeah...
Well, watching this old fashioned stuff will put me to sleep soon enough.
It can't be... you're...!
To be continued
This is actually pretty good.
Onto the next one...
NIGHTMARE
Checkmate!
Piece of cake!
Do over.
No do overs.
No, hang on a sec...
No hanging on.
You're not playing fair--
No I'm not--
Bro!
Hey, bro!
What is it, Haruko?
You forgot your lunch!
I'm surprised you made detective like that!
Oh, she's got you there captain!
This isn't right...
Haruko was killed by Isaka last Summer.
Hey bro, I need to tell you...
It turns out... I'm getting married!
Oh, married? To who?
With me!
From now on you won't be Captain Terui,
...but my brother-in-law, Ryu!
Right?
Please take good care of me, Mikio.
Of course, Haruko.
Now, you may kiss the bride.
This is a nightmare!
I see...
This is lucid dreaming!
Correct!
A Dopant?
And now that you've seen me...
You won't be getting out of here!
You're the one who put those six students to sleep.
That's correct as well.
And you're number seven.
We'll see about that...
ACCEL
Transform!
ACCEL
ENGINE MAXIMUM DRIVE
Despair awaits you beyond the finish line!
Just kidding.
You came all the way to the lab to hound me...
I'm finishing you off.
It can't be...
Omine!
Oh, but it can.
To be continued
Saheiji...
So you marathoned the whole thing!
Jeez...
...and it's morning already!?
Detective!
Oh, Makky...
Captain...
The Dopant got him!
"H" huh?
Keywords: Dreams...
Fuuto University...
Sleeping sickness...
"H"...
This must not be enough to narrow down the identity of the Dopant.
In that case, I'll sleep this time, and get payback for Terui--
Wait right there Shotaro!
Rushing into a confrontation without knowing our opponent's abilities is too dangerous!
So what do we do then!?
I'll continue researching.
There has to be some kind of strategy we can use...
Wait!
Where are you going?
I can't just stand around.
I'm gonna go talk to Himeka again.
What is it Wakana? You certainly seen to be enjoying yourself.
I've just been feeling so great lately!
We're in the middle of eating...
But sister look...
Mick's all curled up!
Thank you for the meal.
Is that another side effect of your little prank, Isaka?
Don't worry.
Her ecstatic mindset is a sign of having a particularly high compatibility with her Memory.
There's no need for a Driver if you can withstand the side-effects...
That's your theory, correct?
Yes sir.
Using a Driver, you won't be able to utilize a Memory's full potential.
I see.
But let me just say this...
A father treasures his daughters.
If something happens to Wakana, I hope you're prepared for the consequences.
Mr. Detective!
Please, forget about this case!
What's wrong?
I fell asleep just for a second, and the the dream monster told me...
Tell the detective to back off.
Otherwise, I'll nail him with the sleeping sickness, like that cop.
I'm scared! I'm so scared!
It's okay.
No matter how dangerous your case is, you can't abandon your client...
For a detective...
No!
...for me, that's an iron-clad rule.
Hey now...
You really are the man of my dreams! You're my prince!
I don't think I like her...
From what I've researched, I came up with a strategy.
We'll undertake it as soon as possible.
Shotaro, I've brought your pillow.
Hey, thanks.
Wait, what're you going to do?
We'll transform into Double, and sleep while our consciousnesses are linked.
That should allow me to enter Shotaro's dreams as well.
CYCLONE
JOKER
Transform!
CYCLONE JOKER
Alright, I'm heading off to Dreamland.
Goodnight, Aki.
In the wind...
I can hear someone crying...
That is when the time has come for my brilliant deductions.
I am the hard-boiled constable who loves this town...
What're you doing Yabuki!?
Terribly sorry.
You were showing off so much, I couldn't stop myself.
So you think...
Please help me!
I can't sleep!
Oh, Hime-chan.
Could this be that sleeping malady I've heard about?
There's a monster...
...in my dreams!
I'm so scared!
Boss! Boss!
Oh lordy lordy!
What's going on, Phillip-chi?
They found some kinda drowned body down by the docks!
Wait, what in the world are you doing Shotaro?
This is inside of your dream.
Oh! Yeah!
I guess that DVD from last night got me thinking about historical settings.
There you are.
Hey there, Boss Terui.
So where's the body...?
It's the famous entertainer... Santa.
Seems he was tired from a lack of sleep, fell in, and drowned.
Whoa wait, isn't that Santa?
And he's smiling? Truly fascinating.
It's not a smile, it's a rictus expression of fear!
And the culprit who did this to me is...
Shotaro, over there.
Now that you've seen me, you can never leave.
So there you are, Dopant.
Why is she in your dream!?
Ohime!
Seeya!
Wait!
Phillip, we gotta transform into Double.
Very well, but I wouldn't get your hopes up...
SHIPPU
KIRIFUDA
What the hell happened to the Memories!?
Guess we gotta make do though.
Transform!
SHIPPU KIRIFUDA
You're not getting away!
You're in the way!
Move!
I said move it!
Help me!
Stay back!
What?
Move!
Gotcha.
Himeka...
Fess up! Why'd you put the researchers to sleep?
It's all for her sake!
For Himeka? Explain!
It was fate!
I am her prince, after all!
Hey now...
Himeka--
Huh!? Who are you!?
What the!?
Move! please move!!
What the heck--!?
Help me!
Idiots... seeya!
Hey, wait a second!
I'm not letting go...
Go away!
Hang on, I'll back up in a second...
Outta the way!
Just kidding.
What the heck!?
Hey!
Quit screwing around!
Hey, wait!
You guys are in the way, get away!
Kensaku Buyou-sama!
Has arrived!
Now then...
Hold it right there!
You're not gonna tell me you forgot who I am, are you?
W-Wait, now what do you have me doing, Shotaro?
You little...
You're getting on my nerves. Begone!
What? Why?
Because like you, my existence in this realm is a unique one.
I should be the only one who can appear in someone else's dream!
It's quite useless.
Now, answer me. Who are you?
Are you Professor Akagi?
Akagi? Not at all.
I put him to sleep already.
Professor Akagi?
Are you there?
What was that scream?
I came calling on Nightmare... but found something much better.
You're...
For Kamen Rider to be sleeping in a place like this...
It's quite a surreal sight.
WEATHER
I'd love to take my time dissecting you but...
You two ruined something that I was looking forward to recently.
If you're not Professor Akagi, then who in the world are you?
What the!?
Isaka Shinkuro!?
I have a strict policy regarding punishment for those who disrupt my enjoyment.
Lucky!
The nuisance is gone.
Now I can take my time and deal with you.
Whoa, sorry!
Let's go!
Hey stop it!
Quit screwing around!
Hey Phillip, what happened!?
Not bad...
But can you block this?
Fang!
You should really be more worried about yourself.
Phillip!
Phillip?
Phillip!
Phillip! Phillip!
Phillip!
Kamen Rider W
Phillip, you can't die!
The Xtreme Memory, eh?
This is Osaka.
Now, let's count up your sins!
Oh snap, it worked!
