Raw Sub Transcript

Meryl	Undertaker!
Meryl	Where’s Vash?
Wolfwood	That’s none of my business anymore.
Meryl	Huh?
Meryl	Stop playing around.
Wolfwood	What?
Meryl	Where is Vash?
Wolfwood	I’m tellin’ you, I don’t know.
Wolfwood	Maybe Knives is turning him into a mummy or something.
Wolfwood	What was that for?
Meryl	I’m so disappointed in you.
Wolfwood	Huh?
Wolfwood	Who does she think she is?
Knives	Don’t panic, Vash.
Knives	Now, let’s begin.
Conrad	Initial connection complete.
Conrad	Vitals are stable. Looks like the connection was a success.
Conrad	At last, a hundred years of my research bears fruit…
Meryl	Stop this.
Meryl	I mean it.
Conrad	You won’t shoot me.
Conrad	It’s bulletproof glass. Besides…
Conrad	Forcefully severing the connection now would be fatal.
Meryl	What are you trying to do?
Conrad	The plants are just husks.
Conrad	Their true being is located elsewhere.
Conrad	Not here, but an alternate dimension. A higher plane.
Conrad	That’s where the energy we consume from plants originates.
Conrad	Plants are merely windows that connect the two dimensions.
Meryl	So what do you want?!
Conrad	Why do you think the twins are the only ones with their own will?
Conrad	I hypothesize that the key difference between the plants and Independents
Conrad	is the existence of a soul.
Conrad	In order to give the plants souls, we must connect to the core.
Meryl	What core?
Conrad	The manifestation of the beginning and the end.
Conrad	The source of all matter and energy.
Conrad	Access the core. Give plants souls.
Conrad	That is my objective.
Meryl	Are you saying… you intend to make every plant on this planet an Independent?
Vash	This place…
Knives	Curious this is the first memory I come to.
Vash	What do you mean?
Knives	Do you remember what I vowed that day?
Knives	I’ve done it. I found the way to free them.
Knives	To make it happen, I need your help.
Knives	Come. Let us save our brethren together.
Vash	You know why humans abuse plants?
Vash	Because they crashed on this barren planet.
Vash	It’s our fault!
Knives	I see.
Vash	Then be crucified on behalf of the Sinners, as you wish!
Meryl	If all the plants become Independent, humanity won’t survive!
Conrad	We’re already in the process of a slow suicide.
Conrad	Plant Independence is the only way to reverse that.
Conrad	Vash’s “window” is special.
Conrad	He’s the only one able to take from and send to the higher dimension.
Meryl	He’d never agree to something like this!
Conrad	That is why he shall be remade.
Meryl	Remade?
Conrad	Second connection successful.
Conrad	We can now interfere with every plant using Vash as a window.
Conrad	This is the point of no return.
Meryl	Vash! Snap out of it!
Meryl	Vash!
Conrad	Initializing assimilation, absorption, awakening, and memory manipulation.
Meryl	Memory manipulation?
Conrad	Knives.
Knives	It’s going well. I’m heading deeper now.
Knives	Soon, you won’t recognize anything.
Knives	Not me, not the world…
Knives	Nothing.
Wolfwood	I owe you one.
Wolfwood	Gotta make a choice, huh?
Rosa	Leave this town!
Tonis	You said you’d save us.
Vash	Tonis…
Rollo	You said you’d save us.
Vash	Rollo!
Wolfwood	You want us to live on, even if it’s as monsters?
Wolfwood	How could you be so irresponsible? You can’t even take care of us.
Wolfwood & Knives	Kill him. Put him out of his misery.
Monev	Kill…
Monev	Kill…!
Vash	No, Rollo.
Vash	That’s enough!
Knives	You’re no hero who’ll save everyone.
Knives	You’re just a coward who can’t stand to watch anyone die.
Vash	Where am I?
Vash	My hand…
Vash	This isn’t real! It’s a dream you’re showing me…
Vash	It’s fake!
Vash	I have to get out of here.
Vash	I have to find the exit.
Conrad	Synchronization at 40 percent and climbing.
Knives	I won’t let you get away, Vash.
Vash	This is…
Young Nai	That’s right. It’s the Big Fall.
Young Nai	What will they think once they learn it was your fault?
Young Nai	Don’t you worry.
Young Nai	They’re just feeble creatures that don’t even live for a century.
Young Nai	Now forget.
Young Nai	Let go and relax.
Vash	Who were they again…?
Conrad	Synchronization at 70 percent.
Conrad	Seventy, eighty… What speed!
Meryl	What’s going on?
Meryl	These are… They’re like the flora!
Conrad	What is this, Knives?
Knives	Don’t panic.
Young Nai	Release your powers, Vash! Let’s remake the world!
Conrad	Synchronization at 90 percent…
Conrad	Progress has stalled?
Young Nai	That woman…
Young Nai	There you are!
Young Nai	Rem Saverem!
Conrad	Love for humanity versus…
Conrad	love for a younger brother.
Conrad	It will determine the fate of the world.
Shopkeeper	Quite an appetite you’ve got there. You on your way home?
Chuck Lee	Nope.
Shopkeeper	I see.
Soldier 11-A	Haven’t you heard? The Humanoid Typhoon snuck into the city.
Shopkeeper	What? No way.
Soldier 11-B	That’s why we’re working all night.
Meryl	Vash!
Meryl	Don’t get taken in! Wake up!
Flashback,Young Vash	A “flower”?
Flashback,Rem	Yes. This one’s a geranium.
Flashback,Rem	There were lots of other flowers back on Earth, too.
Flashback,Young Vash	Can you eat it?
Flashback,Rem	Not this kind, I’m afraid.
Flashback,Young Nai	So it’s ornamental, right, Rem?
Flashback,Young Nai	Just like the one in the plant room.
Flashback,Rem	That’s right, Nai. You’re very observant.
Flashback,Young Vash	Too bad it’s not edible…
Flashback,Young Nai	You’re always thinking about eating.
Flashback,Young Vash	Well, sorry that’s all I’m good for.
Flashback,Young Nai	That’s not what I said.
Flashback,Young Vash	It’s what you meant!
Flashback,Young Nai	What was that?
Flashback,Rem	Gosh, you’re always bickering.
Flashback,Rem	Nai, just because you’re the one with special powers‚Äî
Flashback,Young Nai	Yeah, yeah. It doesn’t mean I should show off, right?
Flashback,Rem	The power you received is wonderful, but promise me this.
Flashback,Rem	When everyone wakes up from cryosleep‚Äî
Flashback,Young Nai	Never show it to anyone but you.
Flashback,Rem	And even if you don’t need to‚Äî
Flashback,Young Nai & Rem	Pretend to eat and drink.
Flashback,Young Nai	I know.
Flashback,Young Nai	You should be more worried about Vash.
Flashback,Young Nai	At this rate, he’ll really just be a human.
Flashback,Rem	That’s fine. There’s no need to compare yourself to anyone else.
Flashback,Rem	You are who you are, and that’s all you need to be.
Flashback,Rem	You too, Nai. Come here.
Flashback,Rem	Powers or no powers, both you boys are still precious to me.
Flashback,Rem	I love you.
Vash	This must have meant something to you, too.
Knives	You really think so?
Flashback,Young Vash	This is bad, Nai.
Flashback,Young Nai	You have to be wondering what Rem is hiding, too.
Flashback,Young Nai	Me?
Flashback,Young Vash	And me, too.
Flashback,Young Nai	Project Code “Type T”?
Flashback,Young Nai	Another Independent like us was born on this ship…
Flashback,Young Nai	Fifty years ago.
Flashback,Young Vash	The records are being kept… here?
Flashback,Young Vash	H-Huh?
Flashback,Young Nai	What?
Flashback,Rem	Nai! Vash!
Vash	I know that humans did terrible things to her.
Vash	I understand why you’d hate them.
Vash	But even so…
Knives	You still don’t get it?
Knives	That was but one grain of sand.
Flashback,Young Nai	Humanity repeats the same tragedies.
Flashback,Young Nai	They deplore conflict, yet no era is ever free from war.
Flashback,Young Nai	History is proof.
Flashback,Young Vash	Reading that again?
Flashback,Young Nai	Humanity never learns.
Flashback,Young Vash	That’s not true.
Flashback,Young Vash	Rem told me.
Flashback,Young Vash	When we were born, she vowed never to let that tragedy occur again.
Flashback,Young Vash	So…
Flashback,Young Vash	let’s have faith in humanity.
Knives	Without any powers, you’re too weak to live as a plant.
Knives	That’s why you craved the love of humans over all else.
Knives	You needed to smile, show your charm, and behave like a harmless pet.
Knives	You’ll never find happiness that way. I had to protect you.
Knives	That’s why I crashed the ships.
Vash	It’s my fault?
Knives	I did it all for you.
Knives	This is it! The final memory…
Conrad	Synchronization at 99 percent.
Meryl	Please, make it stop!
Meryl	It’s not too late!
Conrad	It is indeed too late. About 150 years too late.
Meryl	Vash!
Meryl	Artillery fire?
Soldier 11-C	A giant unknown organism has appeared in the central tower! Need backup!
Chuck Lee	What is that thing?
Conrad	We’re so close…
Knives	That woman was the cause of all the confusion.
Knives	What you tried to believe was love, Vash, was just a bunch of excuses.
Knives	Mere silly fantasies.
Vash	No! Rem!
Vash	Please! Don’t leave me!
Knives	I’ll save you.
Conrad	Synchronization at 100 percent.
Conrad	Memory manipulation and assimilation complete.
Knives	I’ve finally got him back!
Knives	Happy birthday, Vash.
Conrad	Third connection successful.
Conrad	That’s…
Conrad	the entrance to the higher plane!
Soldier	This is the Third City JuLai to the Alliance of Cities!
Soldier	Request immediate assistance!
Knives	Flaming arrows will vaporize the cities, and a flood will purify the lands…
Knives	Today is the battle of Har Megiddo.
Knives	I’m going to enter the higher plane and directly touch the core.
Conrad	Be careful, Knives.
Meryl	You’re…
Conrad	It’s been a long journey.
Conrad	Until Knives realized his wishes, I was not even permitted death.
Conrad	But it’ll all be over soon.
Knives	The human race and its zealous assertion of dominance ends here.
Knives	We Independents…
Knives	will bring a new order to this world!
