An MI5 agent called David makes his way through a crowded nightclub. He asks about someone called Luke Valentine and is shown where he is.
David passes Luke a card. The agent says he was told to give him this. Luke asks him why he wants to be a vampire. All the kingdoms of the world... he shall give them to him. But Luke then crumples the card and says they get a lot of riffraff trying to break into their scene, wanting to become vampires so they can escape their sad little lives. He aims a gun at David and says that card is a ruse, anyone who brings him one of those cards is an enemy of the Valentine brothers. David says it's not like that and claims that someone called Britz told him about this place. Luke tells him to go on.
At the Hellsing HQ, Walter thanks Alucard for his patience on this matter. He thinks he'll be pleased with this and passes him his new handgun: the Jackal. It's a 13mm semiautomatic anti-freak weapon, which is too much gun for any human to handle. It uses custom explosive armor-piercing rounds, with rounds which have already been blessed. Alucard says it's perfect. Seras comes in and asks if he could kill Anderson with this gun. Alucard says he thinks so. Walter says he has a new weapon for Sears as well, as he struggles to pull up a case onto a table.
As Walter gets the weapon out, Seras is dumbfounded by what it is: the Harkonnen cannon. Walter explains that this cannon uses two types of ammunition: depleted uranium shells and explosive armor-piercing incendiary rounds. Seras doesn't think he's seriously asking her to carry that thing around, but Alucard thinks it really suits her. Seras doesn't think she'll look good carrying that, as the length is a serious issue. But that's besides the point -isn't depleted uranium illegal?
Back at the nightclub, two of the Valentine brother's vampires feed on David. Luke tells his brother Jan that the card David had was the decoy from Britz's shop. Jan thinks they should just kill Britz, but Luke tells him not to be so stupid. He reveals that the police arrested Britz last week. But he doesn't think some ordinary cop would bring the card here and risk his life so nonchalantly.
Jan asks if David had a wire on him. Luke says there was nothing on him other than a cross. He says this cross is from a special ops group, who claim to be experts in dealing with vampires and ghouls. Jan says he saw that group on TV. Luke says it's high time they stopped all these territorial pissing matches once and for all. Jan says it looks like they're going to play some war games. Luke says first, they'll need a few soldiers. Later on, David has been killed and left in the River Thames, with a British flag stuck in his body.
News of David's death reaches Hellsing. Integra says forces all over England have been assessing what sort of action is to be taken. Walter says a Round Table conference must be held. Meanwhile, Jan makes a fake phone call, claiming to be attacked by vampires. He quickly disconnects the call, whilst Luke says it's time for them to leave. They and a few of their vampires have killed several people.
Hellsing prepares to move out, but Seras decides to leave her new weapon behind. Fargason tells Integra that according to reports by local police, the people being attacked were some sort of religious cult. Integra says they're going to be dealing with some especially dangerous scum tonight. As the Hellsing unit moves out, Integra returns to HQ. She hears Alucard, who asks if he should be going with them. Integra says she wants the human troops to handle this first, so he'll have to let them take care of it. Alucard says his new gun begs for a field test. Integra says the target isn't just another inhuman freak, these vampires have human characteristics that may be difficult for him to comprehend. Alucard says that sounds like a lot of fun.
The Hellsing unit arrives at at the target building and breaches it. They find a vampire inside, who they shoot down and kill. As they start checking the rest of the building out, they realize there are no other targets on scene, plus they can't see any bodies either. Seras realizes something is wrong when she can smell blood, but she then hears something in a locker nearby: a time bomb.
She yells for everyone to get out, so they quickly evacuate the building. The bomb detonates seconds later, destroying the building. Later on, Fargason reports that it took them too long too recognize the booby trap, but they still managed to evacuate everyone. Integra says how dare the freaks underestimate her organization.
When Seras gets back to her room, she looks at some medical blood left for her. Meanwhile, Jan watches a woman dancing for him, who he rewards by biting down on her neck and drinking her blood. At the Hellsing HQ, Seras decides not to drink the blood. She instead goes to bed.
The next morning, the members of the Round Table arrive at the Hellsing HQ. They all enter the meeting room, where Integra joins them. Sir Irons says that, according to Integra's report, many of the creatures Hellsing have encountered recently are manmade vampires due to these implanted freak chip devices.
Integra says the mission of the Hellsing organization is to end all earthly activity of non-human creatures. In the process of completing this mission, they are expected to have many direct encounters and battles with vampires. But it isn't their responsibility to investigate the mechanism of this chip, or to determine who is distributing it. The MI5 representative says they are in the midst of their investigation. Integra says that investigation led to a spy being killed. Irons says she misunderstands her situation. They all attend this conference to share their power and knowledge with each other, out of a loyalty and reverence to the Queen. Integra says she understands, but then Sir Penwood tells her he doesn't think she does. He thinks Hellsing's activities have become a bit too flash as of late. Non-human creatures have existed since ancient times, and Great Britain has managed to keep this quiet, controlled and contained up until recently. But now Hellsing's activities are leaving a stain on their illustrious history, being too loud and too public. He wonders if she's qualified for her job.
Integra says the enemy is armed with powerful weapons, so she's had no choice. She says that information control is his job. Penwood says that's beside the point, there is a limit to how much information can be suppressed. Integra asks if that means the Round Table members aren't powerful enough to handle the situation. Penwood tells her she's overstepping herself, her father would never have been so irresponsibly brash. Integra says her father was her father.
Outside, Luke and Jan arrive at the Hellsing HQ. Luke tells his brother has has no excuse to screw up. Jan thinks that will never happen, as this is going to be a cakewalk. As he walks off, a guard walks up to Luke and tells him that this building is off limits, so he'll have to leave. Luke says they're here on a sightseeing tour to see all the old London mansions. The guard asks what he's talking about and goes to radio for backup, but then gets killed. Luke tells Jan he thinks it's time to start the tour.
They crash their tour bus through the front gates. Fargason asks for a status report, but gets no response, as Hellsing's forces being to move out. The tour bus smashes through one of the mansion's walls, causing it to break apart. An army of ghouls then exits the bus and starts to invade the Hellsing HQ.
Jan says as long as he can keep killing and drinking, whatever works is cool. Killing Hellsing, killing whatever, he'll kill them all! In the conference room, Integra asks what's going on. She's told the invaders seem to be an unknown number of enemy ghouls, all fully armed. The ghouls are disorganized, so they're having trouble predicting their movements. The Hellsing forces try to fight back, but start getting overwhelmed.
Penwood wants to know what this is all about and tells Integra to explain herself. Meanwhile, the ghouls feed on the fallen Hellsing solders, whilst making their way further into the mansion. Fargason tells all outside units to fall back immediately, as they must defend the third floor at all costs. He then sees a ghoul has managed to get into the control room.
Jan then comes in, saying the security in this place is so weak. He wonders what to do with Fargason, as old people's blood tastes like shit, but it's no fun if he just shoots him. Integra tells Fargason to come in, but she then hears a gunshot.
