WEBVTT

00:21.417 --> 00:25.713
PLANT PRODUCTION RESEARCH FACILITY

00:38.267 --> 00:40.436
Where did Haru hop off to?

00:40.519 --> 00:43.647
We have to hurry or we won't get a seat.

00:43.731 --> 00:44.648
Isn't that her?

00:45.274 --> 00:48.944
Oh, Haru! We were looking for you.

00:49.487 --> 00:51.030
Second period's already over.

00:51.113 --> 00:54.909
Oops, too many absences
won't look very good on my record, huh?

00:54.992 --> 00:56.452
Where's the professor?

00:56.535 --> 00:58.162
The professor left just now.

00:58.245 --> 01:00.039
Let's go, we have to run!

01:00.122 --> 01:02.541
That shop fills up quickly at lunchtime.

01:02.625 --> 01:04.835
Sorry, I need another minute.

01:05.419 --> 01:08.464
Come on!
Okay, we'll go ahead and order for you.

01:08.547 --> 01:09.757
Sure, thanks.

01:09.840 --> 01:12.843
Why does second period
go past noon, anyway?

01:12.927 --> 01:14.929
It makes us late for lunch.

01:27.900 --> 01:28.984
What was that?

01:52.591 --> 01:53.801
Are you okay?

01:56.428 --> 01:57.596
Professor Dorin!

01:58.931 --> 01:59.932
Professor?

02:00.474 --> 02:02.309
Professor, are you okay?

02:03.811 --> 02:04.979
Help!

02:05.062 --> 02:08.107
Someone help! Anyone!

02:15.322 --> 02:16.198
What happened?

02:16.782 --> 02:18.576
She's hurt! We need an ambulance.

02:18.659 --> 02:20.661
Is that Professor Dorin? I'll get help.

02:21.162 --> 02:22.997
Call an ambulance, now!

02:27.501 --> 02:28.544
For real?

02:29.628 --> 02:30.504
What, how?

02:31.088 --> 02:31.964
She fell...

04:02.054 --> 04:06.976
A THREEFOLD DILEMMA

04:15.401 --> 04:18.487
Want to know what I really like?

04:20.155 --> 04:23.200
A face filled with the fear of death.

04:23.284 --> 04:28.789
No matter the species,
everyone makes the same face.

04:28.872 --> 04:32.751
An honest expression, free of lies.

04:33.377 --> 04:34.211
Melon.

04:36.714 --> 04:40.718
There it is. There's that face!

05:17.546 --> 05:19.423
<i>Oh, no. I don't understand them!</i>

05:20.007 --> 05:22.468
<i>I should've studied marine language.</i>

05:52.247 --> 05:54.083
<i>I can't breathe...</i>

05:58.337 --> 06:03.509
If you're ever in trouble in the ocean,
scream like this.

06:53.016 --> 06:54.977
Thank you!

06:56.687 --> 07:01.275
<i>I should at least learn
how to say "thank you" in marine language.</i>

07:15.581 --> 07:16.498
Excuse me, Sagwan.

07:18.625 --> 07:19.585
Sagwan.

07:21.336 --> 07:22.254
Sagwan?

07:25.174 --> 07:29.386
Oh, it's just you, Legoshi.
I put on clothes for nothing.

07:29.470 --> 07:32.806
Sorry for just showing up. You see, I...

07:32.890 --> 07:33.974
Sniff, sniff.

07:34.057 --> 07:36.226
You smell of my hometown.

07:36.894 --> 07:40.063
What did you do? Dive into the ocean?

07:40.147 --> 07:44.276
Well, I fell into the ocean
and nearly drowned.

07:44.359 --> 07:45.527
You what?

07:51.325 --> 07:54.661
Then, I almost got eaten by a shark.

07:54.745 --> 07:57.581
So I used the magic words
you taught me in the bath.

07:58.165 --> 08:00.125
Magic words?

08:00.209 --> 08:03.253
I said, "Agaga papubu daba goma bida."

08:05.756 --> 08:08.717
And I think that saved my life.

08:09.426 --> 08:11.595
What does it even mean, though?

08:12.179 --> 08:13.263
It means,

08:13.889 --> 08:18.852
"I am friends with a spotted seal."

08:25.692 --> 08:31.448
Do spotted seals have a higher standing
in ocean society or something?

08:31.532 --> 08:33.575
Here, have some kelp tea.

08:34.243 --> 08:36.828
Friendship saves lives.

08:37.538 --> 08:42.543
You and I are naked friends, Legoshi.
That is special.

08:44.211 --> 08:45.879
This smells like the sea.

08:46.588 --> 08:48.340
Wait, Legoshi.

08:49.007 --> 08:50.926
What happened to your ear?

08:51.009 --> 08:52.427
Well...

08:59.101 --> 09:04.106
<i>Melon really enjoyed shooting me.</i>

09:06.108 --> 09:11.613
What a wonderful world you must live in.

09:13.365 --> 09:14.992
<i>What's wrong with that?</i>

09:15.075 --> 09:16.702
<i>That's how I choose to live.</i>

09:17.327 --> 09:22.374
It's just so much fun, you know?
Seeing the hopeful become hopeless.

09:22.457 --> 09:24.710
It's so fun I can't help myself.

09:24.793 --> 09:27.879
<i>He was all smiles.</i>

09:29.339 --> 09:31.717
<i>Pure evil.</i>

09:32.843 --> 09:34.595
<i>There's evil in this world.</i>

09:37.139 --> 09:40.642
FESTIVAL OF THE METEOR - JULY 27
CITY HALL

09:40.726 --> 09:41.852
Today,

09:41.935 --> 09:48.150
for shedding light on the danger of Kines
and taking action to protect our citizens,

09:48.233 --> 09:54.197
we shall honor the young and heroic Louis,
heir to the Horns Conglomerate.

09:54.281 --> 09:58.619
As a symbol of gratitude,
I'd like to present him with this plaque.

10:01.121 --> 10:03.707
As a matter of fact,

10:03.790 --> 10:07.419
I've known Louis
since his time at Cherryton School.

10:07.502 --> 10:11.381
Among the students,
he was always admired for his charisma.

10:12.049 --> 10:14.676
And he's the spitting image of his father.

10:18.430 --> 10:21.183
Young Louis acted on his own,

10:21.767 --> 10:26.104
bestowing courage and awareness upon us.

10:26.188 --> 10:30.984
Such initiative and responsibility
shall make him a worthy Beastar.

10:32.694 --> 10:37.658
You have our continued support
as a candidate for the next Beastar.

10:40.035 --> 10:42.371
I happen to have
a Black Market live bait catalog.

10:42.454 --> 10:45.040
Your information is still listed here.

10:45.624 --> 10:47.876
If you keep quiet about this affair

10:47.959 --> 10:52.130
until tomorrow's
Festival of the Meteor ends,

10:52.214 --> 10:56.301
I'll clear your record as a reward.

10:57.386 --> 10:59.805
I'll cover up your past.

11:18.907 --> 11:20.367
TRASH

11:20.450 --> 11:21.284
Excuse me.

11:21.993 --> 11:23.328
You're Louis, right?

11:23.412 --> 11:27.290
- Sorry, I'm in a hurry.
- Um, I wanted to thank you.

11:29.292 --> 11:34.089
My friend was attacked
by a carnivore who drank Kines.

11:34.172 --> 11:35.924
I tried to help, but I...

11:37.509 --> 11:40.512
I'm fine now, though.
It just stings every now and then.

11:40.595 --> 11:41.513
Good.

11:42.222 --> 11:46.685
I'd heard rumors about Kines for a while,
but nobody did anything about it.

11:47.477 --> 11:48.687
Except for you.

11:50.313 --> 11:52.941
So, I wanted to thank you for that.

12:06.121 --> 12:07.664
Take care.

12:07.747 --> 12:11.209
RESTWELL FAMILY PHARMACY
PRESCRIPTION DRUG WINDOW

12:16.715 --> 12:21.178
They told me it'd be a fancy dinner,
but they wanted me to schmooze the client!

12:21.261 --> 12:22.721
That pissed me off.

12:23.263 --> 12:25.557
I don't grow this fluffy wool

12:25.640 --> 12:30.145
for carnivorous old geezers
to caress whenever they please.

12:32.314 --> 12:34.774
Oh, Legoshi.
Even a wolf can catch a cold, huh?

12:37.277 --> 12:38.653
Sorry about that.

12:39.237 --> 12:41.823
How do wolves treat colds, anyway?

12:42.657 --> 12:44.868
With the usual rice porridge and stuff.

12:44.951 --> 12:48.038
And when I was a pup,
I had to wear a cabbage helmet.

12:48.121 --> 12:49.539
Does that even work?

12:49.623 --> 12:51.500
My grandpa swears by it.

12:55.378 --> 12:56.505
Legoshi.

12:56.588 --> 12:58.340
Louis...

12:58.423 --> 13:01.593
Sorry for dropping by uninvited.
I'll come back later.

13:01.676 --> 13:05.347
No, wait, wait! Don't get the wrong idea!

13:05.430 --> 13:07.182
What? Is he your boyfriend?

13:07.265 --> 13:08.600
That's wrong, too!

13:08.683 --> 13:10.685
Whatever. Anyway, here.

13:11.436 --> 13:13.146
Take your medicine, okay?

13:15.357 --> 13:17.234
See? We're just neighbors.

13:17.317 --> 13:18.944
It's okay. I won't judge.

13:19.027 --> 13:20.320
I told you, it's not--

13:23.698 --> 13:25.283
My heart belongs solely to Haru.

13:25.367 --> 13:27.827
Fine, fine. I get it.

13:30.038 --> 13:31.498
I sort of fell into the ocean.

13:31.581 --> 13:32.832
The ocean?

13:32.916 --> 13:35.877
Sorry you came all this way
just for me to be sick...

13:35.961 --> 13:39.381
Actually, I think I came
at the perfect time.

13:44.177 --> 13:45.136
Take your medicine.

13:45.220 --> 13:47.222
Right, thanks.

13:48.598 --> 13:51.977
Your workplace has no qualms
about releasing personal information.

13:52.602 --> 13:55.730
Simply asking for your address
earned me a hand-drawn map.

13:57.691 --> 13:59.693
You went to the udon shop?

14:00.277 --> 14:01.695
Just to see me?

14:02.904 --> 14:04.114
What happened?

14:04.197 --> 14:07.951
Well, first things first,
I brought you some food.

14:08.743 --> 14:10.745
Which snack do you want? Three choices.

14:11.621 --> 14:12.455
Jelly,

14:12.998 --> 14:14.165
castella,

14:14.249 --> 14:15.250
or me?

14:17.502 --> 14:18.670
Excuse me?!

14:19.254 --> 14:21.923
I worked hard writing that joke
on my way here today.

14:22.007 --> 14:23.508
Well, it's not funny!

14:24.217 --> 14:25.886
Did something happen?

14:26.469 --> 14:28.513
I came to make sure you were okay.

14:30.724 --> 14:32.642
I had a terrible hunch.

14:32.726 --> 14:36.354
Then I hear you fell into the ocean?
And look at your ear.

14:36.438 --> 14:38.106
Are you up to something?

14:38.189 --> 14:40.317
You came because
you were worried about me?

14:40.400 --> 14:42.277
Yes. Is that a problem?

14:43.111 --> 14:43.945
But why?

14:44.029 --> 14:46.948
I just told you. I had a bad feeling.

14:48.033 --> 14:50.744
Even though my right leg is gone,
it started to sting.

14:52.037 --> 14:53.330
It's happened twice now.

14:54.998 --> 14:57.542
Something else happened to you, didn't it?

14:57.626 --> 15:00.253
I could ask you the same question, Louis.

15:00.754 --> 15:03.381
I mean, look.
You've got scratches on your face.

15:04.132 --> 15:06.176
Oh, and I saw you on TV.

15:06.259 --> 15:09.846
That speech with the police?
You were so cool!

15:09.930 --> 15:12.849
- Where do you even have a TV?
- At the udon shop.

15:15.644 --> 15:17.187
I wasn't being cool.

15:17.938 --> 15:21.942
I was just angry that something
so dangerous went completely unchecked.

15:22.651 --> 15:24.361
Kines, right?

15:25.153 --> 15:30.200
Someone spread it to the public,
knowing that naive amateurs would buy it.

15:30.909 --> 15:32.077
I couldn't allow that.

15:32.661 --> 15:36.706
I think your efforts
will save tons of other herbivores.

15:36.790 --> 15:37.874
That's not it.

15:37.958 --> 15:40.877
I wanted to save <i>you</i> guys.

15:40.961 --> 15:43.296
Somebody's got to do
something about it, right?

15:44.089 --> 15:46.716
Since carnivores are such morons.

15:48.593 --> 15:50.887
- Here.
- Oh, thank you.

15:53.515 --> 15:54.432
So?

15:55.141 --> 15:56.559
What happened to you?

15:58.603 --> 16:01.356
Well, I...

16:02.315 --> 16:05.777
A lot happened.
I was chasing this awful criminal.

16:05.860 --> 16:06.695
Oh?

16:06.778 --> 16:09.572
At first, I was just
following a Beastar's orders.

16:09.656 --> 16:13.785
But then I wanted to talk to him myself.

16:13.868 --> 16:14.744
And...

16:16.496 --> 16:17.747
he shot me.

16:18.748 --> 16:20.542
What?! When did that happen?

16:20.625 --> 16:23.753
Last month,
during the waxing crescent moon.

16:23.837 --> 16:28.091
I actually died for a bit,
and my late mother visited me.

16:28.174 --> 16:31.803
She told me that
I should always say what I want to say.

16:32.429 --> 16:34.264
I agreed with her.

16:34.347 --> 16:39.561
So, when the full moon came around,
I came back to life and found him again.

16:39.644 --> 16:43.606
- And... he shot me again.
- What?

16:43.690 --> 16:46.484
After that, he threw me in the ocean...

16:48.737 --> 16:49.571
Excuse me.

16:51.990 --> 16:54.117
What happened to him after that?

16:54.784 --> 16:56.369
He's still on the loose.

16:56.453 --> 16:58.580
He really did all that to you?

16:58.663 --> 17:00.582
The Shishi-Gumi were there, too.

17:04.002 --> 17:05.211
Wait a minute.

17:05.712 --> 17:06.838
Is he a mix?

17:07.422 --> 17:10.508
Yes, a gazelle and leopard mix.

17:10.592 --> 17:11.593
Melon!

17:12.093 --> 17:14.596
Huh? Louis, you know him?

17:16.056 --> 17:20.643
Wait, I thought you left the Shishi-Gumi!
You said you cut ties with them.

17:20.727 --> 17:23.188
I bumped into them
while investigating Kines.

17:23.271 --> 17:27.150
You bumped into them?
Did you meet Melon, too?

17:27.817 --> 17:30.987
No, I had to hide
and only caught a glimpse of him.

17:31.071 --> 17:34.574
But he was the one
who released Kines to the public.

17:35.450 --> 17:40.080
What a joke. This whole scam
helped the Shishi-Gumi bounce back.

17:40.955 --> 17:44.000
More importantly,
what did you plan on telling Melon?

17:44.084 --> 17:46.419
Well...

17:46.503 --> 17:48.671
You knew how dangerous he is, didn't you?

17:51.883 --> 17:53.927
I just wanted to know.

17:54.761 --> 17:58.640
I wanted to understand
how he felt, how he thought.

17:59.933 --> 18:03.186
I thought I could get to know him
by talking to him.

18:04.521 --> 18:06.064
But I was wrong.

18:06.147 --> 18:07.941
He's not that kind of animal.

18:09.275 --> 18:10.151
What?

18:12.779 --> 18:13.613
Enough.

18:13.696 --> 18:15.824
You've got a 45-degree fever.

18:17.200 --> 18:19.661
We'll chat later.
Sorry for the sudden visit.

18:19.744 --> 18:21.329
- But...
- Bed.

18:22.497 --> 18:23.331
Okay.

18:27.627 --> 18:29.879
We'll resume this discussion later.

18:34.008 --> 18:35.260
In the end,

18:36.386 --> 18:38.221
he's just toying with us.

18:39.430 --> 18:42.225
He thinks it's fun to tear people apart.

18:43.726 --> 18:45.770
There's no logic behind it.

18:45.854 --> 18:48.773
I saw that look in his eyes.

18:50.567 --> 18:52.485
The moment he pushed me off that cliff,

18:53.111 --> 18:55.029
he looked truly alive.

18:55.989 --> 18:57.407
Like an inferno

18:58.491 --> 19:00.034
was raging inside him.

19:02.996 --> 19:06.207
That's enough for today. Get some rest.

19:08.251 --> 19:11.671
I'm... scared.

19:13.840 --> 19:17.260
<i>But what is it you're afraid of?</i>

19:23.641 --> 19:24.934
This is taking forever.

19:25.018 --> 19:26.186
It just goes on and on.

19:26.769 --> 19:29.522
- By the way, are you really okay, Haru?
- Me?

19:30.023 --> 19:31.691
You saw it, didn't you?

19:31.774 --> 19:32.817
Professor Dorin's--

19:32.901 --> 19:34.861
Stop! Why bring that up?

19:34.944 --> 19:38.072
- I'm just worried about her.
- I didn't see it happen.

19:38.156 --> 19:41.034
I heard a loud crash
and found her lying there.

19:41.117 --> 19:44.913
I knew we should've
waited for you back there.

19:45.413 --> 19:47.207
I'm so sorry, Haru.

19:47.290 --> 19:48.666
Don't sweat it, I'm fine.

19:49.375 --> 19:50.627
It was a shock, though.

19:50.710 --> 19:54.547
So the fence on the roof just broke?
That's crazy dangerous, isn't it?

19:54.631 --> 19:56.841
Yeah, the building isn't even that old.

19:56.925 --> 19:59.219
- Well, about that...
- What?

19:59.302 --> 20:04.807
Apparently, Professor Dorin
was a key member of the university board.

20:04.891 --> 20:08.102
- I hear everyone hated her guts.
- Oh, really?

20:08.186 --> 20:11.606
She harassed her subordinates
left and right.

20:11.689 --> 20:15.818
Supposedly, that's the reason
she lost the election for board director.

20:16.319 --> 20:19.072
The university declared this
as an accident,

20:19.155 --> 20:21.574
but it might've been a suicide.

20:21.658 --> 20:23.785
What? She wanted to die over that?

20:23.868 --> 20:26.788
That's only a rumor, right?
Nobody saw it happen.

20:26.871 --> 20:28.998
That's not necessarily the case.

20:29.082 --> 20:30.124
Sorry.

20:30.875 --> 20:33.169
I'm going to start heading back.

20:37.840 --> 20:39.300
Look what you did.

20:56.109 --> 20:58.236
Oh, Professor Lumrong.

20:58.319 --> 21:02.532
Ah, you're the student
who loves to talk through my lectures.

21:02.615 --> 21:05.285
Oh, yeah. I apologize for that.

21:11.207 --> 21:13.668
Were you taking Professor Dorin's class?

21:15.044 --> 21:18.172
No, I didn't know her like that.

21:19.048 --> 21:22.468
She gave me advice from time to time.

21:23.261 --> 21:24.595
I see.

21:25.305 --> 21:26.639
What an unfortunate accident.

21:29.183 --> 21:33.062
Um, it <i>was</i> an accident, right?

21:35.148 --> 21:36.858
Got something to say?

21:37.442 --> 21:38.484
No, it's just...

21:39.861 --> 21:43.448
I feel like someone was there
when she fell.

21:44.782 --> 21:48.036
Have you mentioned this to anyone?

21:48.119 --> 21:50.455
I don't know if I should.

21:50.538 --> 21:53.291
That could make someone a suspect.

21:56.336 --> 21:59.839
Would you be willing
to talk with me about it?

21:59.922 --> 22:01.049
But...

22:01.132 --> 22:04.010
You shouldn't bottle things up
in that tiny body of yours.

22:04.802 --> 22:08.389
Please, come to my laboratory.

23:37.687 --> 23:42.024
