A boy is sitting at a table in the club and is approached by strange woman wearing a gas mask. She hands him a small packet and he pays her for it. Floating text appears: "10,000 Yen. That's Expensive! The Market price is only about 4,000 Yen." (Note: 10,000 Yen is about $100US, 4,000 Yen is about $40US). The boy stares at the packet. More floating text appears: "We call it 'Accela'. Although its from the same supplier its not exactly a drug."</p> | | <p style="text-align:justify">The spinning mirror ball and heavy beat blare from the dance club. Floating text appears: "Cyberia.

− | <p style="text-align:justify">Licking his lips, the boy opens the the packet which reveals a caspule surrounding a small object inside. Sweating and breathing heavily, the boy slits open the capsule with a hobby knife revealing the small device. He ingests the device and washes it down with his drink. Immediately his perceptions begin to change and he starts to foam at the mouth. Floating text appears: "I feel accelerated." Everyone he sees appears to be moving in slow motion. He sees an image of Lain's friends Alice, Reika, and Juri at a table. A man falls to the ground. He has been pushed down by a woman. We see her face, which appears to be an angry, more mature looking Lain. She mouths words. (Shades: looks like Baka).</p> | + | <p style="text-align:justify">Licking his lips, the boy opens the the packet which reveals a caspule surrounding a small object inside.

He tells her he has a delivery and then proceeds to unload the truck. The driver asks Lain to sign the delivery confirmation. He is impressed with what he has delivered, indicating that he "always wanted one himself." Lain does not know what any of it is. The man tells her it is the latest Navi model, fully equipped. "With this much machine power," he comments, "it will make your surfing on the wired trouble free. I made one for my own use, but its now match against this." Lain says "but I don't know anything about this." "Soon you will," says the driver with a smile as he leaves.</p> | | <p style="text-align:justify">Back on the streets with the electric hum, Lain pauses when she sees a delivery truck in front of her house.

− | <p style="text-align:justify">The scene shifts to Lain in her bear pajamas. (eeh! says Shades... I hate those pajamas. I already have some, says Balto!) Lain hears a sound and gets out of bed. As she descends the stairs she sees her mother and father engaged in a deep kiss (can you say tonsil hockey?) Lain stares. Noticing her, her Father breaks it off and says "Your new Navi has arrived." Her mother says "Please clean up soon, they're in the way." Lain's father offers to set up the computer after dinner. He comments: "This Navi is so powerful that I'd like to use one myself." Lain asks her Father if he can set it up now. Her father is surprised at her eagerness, but Lain just stares back. He agrees.</p> | + | <p style="text-align:justify">The scene shifts to Lain in her bear pajamas. Lain hears a sound and gets out of bed.

− | <p style="text-align:justify">In her room her father admonishes: "Don't use the Navi with kids all the time. Communication needs more advanced systems whenever you get involved in more mature human relations. You got that Lain?" Lain just stares. Her father boots the new computer and invites Lain to log on to the machine. She takes down the hood of her bearsuit (Shades: Yea!) then her father tells her to talk to it. Lain says: "Hello Navi." Her father tells her: "Finally this Navi is yours. You can show this off to your friends!" As his father opens the door he finds that Mika has been listening there. She feigns disinterest and walks away.</p> | + | <p style="text-align:justify">In her room her father admonishes: "Don't use the Navi with kids all the time.

We are waiting for you. Be sure to come." Floating text appears: "Why don't you come here quickly."</p> | | <p style="text-align:justify">Lain checks her mail on the new system, but there is none.
