Bubblegum Crisis: Tokyo 2040 (1998–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - Woke Up with a Monster - full transcript

When orders from above snuff the AD Police's case on the machine-devouring beast, Leon and Daley take matters in their own hands. Priss puts her foot down about a teammate's missteps - a rescue mission may be Nene's last chance to prove her worth!

It's eating a boomer.

The mad boomer has been
eliminated. Now return at once.

Roger.

Take this!

Hold it, you bastard!

You're late!

Idiot! You didn't need to do that.

Yeah, but...

Per your orders, the area
has been closed.

Ostensibly, it's due to the
ground being weakened

by an accident during
construction.



I don't think it will be a problem
since your affiliate Baratrom

was developing that area.

I dealt with the media
in the usual manner.

However, we can't say it was just
some terrorists using boomers,

so I guess we need to
make up a story.

I leave it up to you.

I understand.

A monster that eats boomers...

How interesting!

Increase the ratio of
extension by 5%.

Yes, Sir.

Sylia...

I think you were wrong
about Nene.

I know that.



What do you mean?!

Close the damn door, you idiot!

Why was the investigation
cancelled?

We can't do anything about it.
This is an order from the top!

We saw it! We saw the monster!

Well, was it a boomer?

No, but...

What is our duty? Tell me!

To control boomer crime!

Damn you...

I don't have to spell it
out for you, do I?

I don't buy it!

Who the hell will eliminate
that monster then?!

The TV networks aren't saying
a word about the monster,

and the report on that incident
was a complete lie...

Have you ever seen the news tell
the truth about our work?!

I have to tell you one thing.
That area has been closed.

You can't touch this incident
even on your own time.

Excuse us!

Idiot!

Take this!

This pisses me off!

Don't get so excited.

''Don't touch any
troublesome matter.''

That's the usual way our bosses
deal with things, right?

I can't believe you're so
quiet about this.

It might be possible to sneak
into that area

from the remains of the
underground city.

I know you're not a guy
who can keep quiet.

What a great partner!

We're hopelessly linked
together, idiot.

Hi, Nene!

Good morning.

Morning!

Are you all right?

About what?

Well...

Oh, yeah! Your bruise
from last night!

I was wondering if you
were okay or not.

Oh, it's nothing at all!

Look! See, see?!

So what? You have some
muscular pain, don't you?

Well, maybe a little.

I'm young!

Oh no, Linna, are you
already that old?

Well, it's nice to see you're fine!

Bye.

Nene-chan!

I'm not in the mood to
play around.

Sorry, Leon-pyon!

''Pyon?!''

Hey!

Actually, I have a favor to ask.

About Priss?

Well, deal with it by yourself.

Hey, what's that? What does
''about Priss'' mean?!

I told you before. I have
nothing to do with her!

I'll be in trouble if you use PC's
for private purposes.

I haven't heard a thing about
anything like that!

Are you keeping something
hidden from your partner?!

The favor has nothing
to do with her.

How are things going?

Yes, Sir. Everything is prepared
to move underground now.

Well, let them go then.

Yes, Sir.

As I think you already know, this
is classed as a Special A secret.

Nobody will ever find
out about this.

Absolutely.

Even Chairman Rosenkrantz
is not allowed to know.

That's why we chose the members
of this team so carefully.

All the members swear allegiance
to you, Vice President Mason.

I didn't think you would be
interested in such a monster.

My interest is not in the monster.

Then what?

Something beyond that thing.

That monster eats boomers.

Do you understand what
that means?

Boomers might have been born in
the same place that monster was.

It's possible.

Why am I...

Why am I so frightened of this?

Welcome!

How much is this?

I think it will look good on you.
You want to try it?

I was joking!

A little adjustment of
the arm, right?

Nigel finished it last night so...

Not that. That's no big deal.

I've been working by risking
my own life so far.

I don't know what happened,
but I was in trouble.

I don't care if she gets
herself hurt,

but I don't want to suffer
for her mistakes.

Are you talking about Nene?

It has nothing to do with who's
right and who's wrong,

but I don't intend to continue
working with her like this.

What do you want me
to do about it?

Let her go.

Nene can't do it any longer.

Boomers are be coming extreme in
their transformation to madness.

You should tell her not to go up
front. Use your authority, Sylia.

Say, would you like to
make a wager?

If you win, I'll make her
leave the front,

but if I win, you have to do one
thing that I ask you to do.

I shaved the weight roller guide
by 0.7 millimeters.

I see. With the width of the
driving belt expanded,

the maximum speed can
be increased.

This muffler needs to be replaced.

Right!

Nene!

Hi!

I'm sorry about Sylia.

Oh no, I don't mind that at all.

I'm sure she knows it
was her fault,

but she's not the kind of person
who can apologize easily.

It's just that...

I've been thinking that I might
be a drag on the team.

Even Linna who joined us recently
has overtaken me.

No, that's not true! I'm sure
you're useful somehow.

Are you trying to make me feel
better by saying that?

Because of you, we get
information from the AD police!

Also, nobody can build a system
like that except you.

You mean this one?

You don't understand what
I'm telling you.

Anyway, you're incredible!
Whenever an incident happens,

you instantly transfer all the
information into your server.

What's the matter?

Oh my god!

Those two guys are missing along
with some light armored jackets.

They've gone to that place.

Turn right at that intersection.

Can we trust that map?

This is a top secret map Nene
downloaded from Public Safety.

She stole this from a place not
even directors can access.

She's impressive.

Are you sure she won't turn
us into the director?

Trust me. I haven't told her
about our coming here,

and I told her I needed the map
for a different investigation.

This is the place.

Underneath the 28th area.

The home of the monster.

What's that?

What are they doing in here?

Hey!

The map doesn't include the
area beyond this point.

In this situation, I'm going
to stick with you,

even if we go straight to Hell!

We've lost the beacon signal.

It seems the only thing we can do
is to wait for them to come back.

What's wrong?

There's a beacon on somewhere.

A beacon?

It's from the 28th area. The signal
is coming from the 28th area!

Does the signal relate to them?

I don't know. But the AD police
don't use a system code like this.

Anyway, we're going, aren't we?

Yes, please!

What is this place?

Somekind of lab facility?

Look at the thickness of the walls.

I guess the inside was protected
perfectly from the earthquake.

However, it was left behind when
communications were cut.

Now it's the monster's
home I guess.

I wonder if the monster did this?

Be careful.

Damn! Let us go! Let us go!

What the hell?

It's the sonic wave that killed
the boomers!

I guess it doesn't work on us!

Lucky us!

What power!

They were killed by this!

Leon!

They're stealing our action even
in a place like this! Damn it!

This is it!

Well, well...

How lucky! Emergency
power is still active!

The facility is back online?!

Collect the data! Bring the
computer system to full power!

Report to the second, third
and fourth trailers!

Sylia! Here comes the data
on that monster!

Sylia?

That sonic wave affects the
formation of boomers.

Why didn't I realize that before?!

My god!

Sylia?

Mackey!
Sylia?

Mackey!
Yes!

Yes!

Prepare my suit!

Hurry!

It's no good! Our knuckle
bombs don't work on it.

Nene, nothing yet?

Wait a second!

My suit...

Can't move.

What's wrong with them?

No, I can't move!

Damn, I'm going to lose the bet.

Bet?

If she screws upon the
next mission, I lose.

But if she does a better job
than you do, I win.

It won't happen.

What should we do, Daley?

You're asking me?

I don't know what to do.

What's that?!

Are you both okay?

Sylia, behind you!

Sylia!

Sylia!
Sylia!

Sylia!

Oh no!

Sylia!

Sylia!

Papa...

Sylia!

Hey, open your mouth!

Your weak point is...

There!

Damn!

The facility we found was
definitely the Bioscape Lab.

They did some business in
boomer development,

but we didn't find the thing
you've been looking for.

I see.

That monster was created through
biotechnology experimentation,

and was based on an ancient life
form from the Cambrian period...

Turn it off.
and was based on an ancient life
form from the Cambrian period...

Now, Priss, you have to
keep your promise.

Oh no, you have to smile more!

Ready? Cheese!

I'm going back to my home town
in Kumamoto!

Well, not exactly.

I'm visiting my parents' house for
a Buddhist memorial service.

All of my relatives will be there, so
even though it's trouble some,

I have to go anyway.

I wonder why they were so firm
about me coming?

What? An arranged date?
With whom?!

Next Bubblegum Crisis!
