The audience waited as the lights dimmed, meaning the episode was starting.

Episode begins with a man's face at an angle that shadowed most of it, a mechanical looking fist shaking.

"ANSWER ME THIS! WHY ARE WE FORCED TO WORK?!" he yelled before the scene changed, showing multiple trays of gourmet food. "WHY MUST WE PAY MONEY TO EAT?! IT'S INSANE! CAN'T WE ALL JUST SHARE?"

"What's he on about?" an executive asked in confusion.

Scene shows a rich man with a beautiful woman getting out of a limo, smoking a cigar and wearing fancy clothes. It then pans down to show a poor man living in an alley without a box to call his home.

"LOOK AROUND! THE RICH GET FAT WHILE THE POOR DIE!"

"As harsh as it is, that is life sometimes." Flashy Flash stated.

"WHERE IS THE FREEDOM IN THIS WORLD? DOES IT EVEN EXIST?! WE'RE ALL JUST SLAVES TO OUR WORK! AND IS WORK FUN? NO! HOW COULD IT BE?!" the man yelled as the scene changes and pans over dozens of men in suits, all with dull looks in their eyes. Then shifts to a man running while holding a briefcase and talking on a cellphone. Then shifts to a man working at a desk before it shifts to his frustrated eyes.

"You know, when I see what I may have become, I'm kinda glad I decided to be a hero." Saitama spoke up as he looked at the various people's expressions as they worked.

"Same here." most of them chorused, earning odd looks and chuckles.

"WE DO NOT WANT TO WORK! PERIOD!" the man continued, his fist held high before the scene changes to show the mans' face, a scar running across his cheeks and nose. "THAT'S WHY I, HAMMERHEAD, WILL CHANGE OUR SOCIETY! I'LL MAKE IT WHERE ONLY THOSE WHO WANT TO WORK WILL WORK WHILE THE REST ARE SUPPORTED!" Camera zooms out to show Hammerhead standing in front of a few dozen men, all with bald heads and all wearing battle suits. "WE WILL CREATE A UTOPIAN WORLD! THE PARADISERS, LEAD BY HAMMERHEAD, WILL REALIZE THIS!" he declared.

Some of the audience's faces fell after his speech was over.

"He can't be serious." Tank-Top Master said with a raised eyebrow.

"If that's how society functioned, then nobody would be working." Atomic Samurai grunted with a frown. "They'd all be expecting handouts from everyone else."

"I've seen a lot of idiots, but this guy takes the cake." spoke Tornado.

"Forget the cake. He takes the whole bakery." Metal Bat added.

"Hammerhead..." one executive muttered in thought. "Isn't that man a criminal?"

"It does ring a bell." another executive agreed.

Scene zooms out a little to show other people just walking on by, not paying any attention to Hammerhead, to his confusion.

"Hey King. Is that you right there?" Child Emperor asked, pointing at the back of someone's head. "That looks like your hair."

"I don't know." King answered. "Maybe. Maybe not."

"Boss. Nobody's listening." one of the Paradisers pointed out.

"All these damn idiots! Th-They're not ready for us anyway!" Hammerhead grunted. "LET'S GO! That guy Zeniru's loaded! We'll wreck his posh penthouse and show everyone that WE MEAN BUSINESS! HIGH-RISE APARTMENTS ARE SYMBOLS OF INEQUALITY!"

"YES SIR!" the other Paradisers yelled as the scene shows them all marching towards Zeniru's home.

"Isn't Zeniru that multi-millionaire who lives in City-F?" an executive asked.
