Ghost In The Shell
Season 01
S01E22 - C: Corporate Graft – SCANDAL
The Head of the DEA is arrested for murder in connection with the raid at the Sunflower Society building. Aramaki orders Section 9 to go through all of the facility’s records to determine who are the remaining members of the Narcotics Suppression Squad. As Aramaki leaves the building he shares an elevator ride with former prime minister Kanzaki, who privately discloses that the prime suspect pulling the strings has a lot of friends in high places and strong connections to the [[Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force|navy]]. Elsewhere, the remaining members of the Narcotic Suppression Squad attempt to frame Aramaki with [[Illegal drug trade|drug trafficking]], concocting a story about his homeless brother to lure him to the refugee district and arrest him, but their plan fails when Batou rescues the chief before the police arrive on the scene. Meanwhile, Kusanagi seeks to repair her prosthetic body after incurring severe damage in a battle against the government’s latest [[Artificial powered exoskeleton|prototype power armor]]. Her plan is to perform a simple body swap, but the doctor in charge of the procedure is in reality an NSS agent intent on killing her by erasing her ghost. However, before Kusanagi is killed, [[Laughing Man (Ghost in the Shell)|the Laughing Man]] arrives, ghost-hacking the assassin and completing the Major’s body swap, allowing her to subdue the assassin herself after he leaves.
