Bubblegum Crisis: Tokyo 2040 (1998–…): Season 1, Episode 20 - One of These Nights - full transcript

As Galatea awakens the Dragon Line, she grants Mason's request - but not exactly how he intended. Leon's not a smooth dude, but just as he gets to Priss, the Knight Sabers call her into action!

Damn, this is it, Daley!

A little bit more.

Now!

Did we get it?

Damn...

What? Why?! The core is gone.

Nene! Nene!

I'm going!

But you won't have any support.

Nigel, where is the battery metal
in this suit?

I arranged it to be decentralized
within the body.



It's fully charged.

Why didn't you make mine first?!

What's going on?

I guess the boomer's evolved
to the point it can move

without being controlled
by the core.

Don't talk about it as if
it's a living thing!

What?

I see!

I understand.

The load from the Skyhook, has
disturbed the Dragon Line!

I guess so.

It's dragging the Dragon Line!
That's why it's immortal, isn't it?

What's going on?

Linna?!



Linna!

Separate it from the Dragon Line,

or it will revive again and again!

Thank you, Nene!

I'm going to get one too!

What are you doing, Galatea?

Cut it out! Stop speaking
in machine language!

I want you to remember that I was
the one who rescued you.

Please make my dream
come true, Galatea.

I want to see how you're going
to change the world.

You want to be God, don't you?

I see. I guess so.

If what God does is just be there.

The only reason to exist
is to observe the end

of the irrational living organisms
that he created.

Therefore, I'm God,

and you have surpassed
even God!

Anti-seed...

In order to give metal
living qualities,

it was necessary to copy
traits from a human's.

Stingray implanted the seed that
became you into his daughter,

and waited for the miracle of
an antibody to appear.

However, that was just a clue.

You did it to your body.

I wanted to. I implanted a
minor copy of you,

a boomer core, in my artificial
organs as a control factor.

I wanted to be the most
advanced human being.

Even though you're a human.

I don't understand why my sister
holds such a grudge against me.

Galatea!

What the hell is this?!

Galatea, what did you do?!

What did you to my body?!

Galatea!

Is it okay that it looks this big?

It needs to be this size for
someone to be able to wear it.

This new suit looks ridiculous.

But this is seriously incredible!

Linna's already kicked the crap
out of that huge boomer!

Yes, the new suits are incredible.

However, when you wear it...

When you wear it?

Hey, Mackey?

You'll do something about
that soon, won't you?

What? What is it?!

Well...

Sure. I see.

WHAT?! Without putting
anything on?!

No way!

Where's Nigel?

Sylia's here so they're
talking, I guess.

I've always appreciated you.

I have served your father and
you for two generations.

What do you mean?

There's no meaning.

Are you telling me that I've
only been using you?

Don't be ridiculous!

I haven't been working with you
just because I feel sorry for you!

It's because I think your
technology is superior.

Then, what is it you wish?

Did you intend to live your life
dealing with a noisy vehicle,

a relic from the last century,
just scattering gasoline?

Don't make me laugh.

I...

I love...

Ms. Sylia...

The hard suit based on the new
concept still utilizes your bio-data.

Therefore, your hard suit has been
completed as the first model.

However, I don't want
you to put it on.

I guess you've reached the limit.

The hard suit's feedback is too
much for a mature female like you.

I'm glad you care about me.

Galatea...

What did you do to me?

You desire to be a God, don't you?

You'll be able to stare at the
world forever from there.

Stare at the world? What
are you going to do?

I'm going to let the underground
earthworm out.

Impossible! You mean
the Dragon Line?

I'm too old to play with toys.

I saw fire.

Thank you.

What are you laughing at?

When we see each other, it seems
you always have a sexy outfit on.

Don't you dare look!

How's your wound?

Okay.

You usually put on
heavy equipment.

You look as if you try to seal
yourself in something.

Well, I'm not trying to
be a psychiatrist.

Isn't there anybody left in town?

No, Tokyo is closed.

Closed?

For fear of the phenomenon
spreading through the city.

Look at this.

What the hell is this?

The International
Organization Army.

Japan has been occupied by them.

By boomers and by other
countries.

Leon, what are you
going to do here?

Priss, come to the pit now!

I'm kind of...

What? Is somebody there?

Nobody! I just don't feel
like coming over there.

You don't feel like...

This is no time to talk like that!

A monster! There's a monster!

We don't have time
to wait for Priss.

Galatea must be trying to break
through the Tokyo blockade

by making the Dragon
Line come alive.

We've got to stop her from
playing this trick.

This is my first time to
put on the suit, so...

Mackey?

Yes?

Can you go somewhere else?

Mackey...

This room is for ladies only.

Oh! Yes, that's right!

Where's your partner?

I don't know, maybe at home.

The AD Police has been dissolved.
We've been ordered to withdraw.

Then why are you here?

The same as you. You don't have
a purpose for fighting
anymore, do you?

There was no purpose
from the beginning.

Can you tell me the reason
why you hate boomers?

I can't. It's embarrassing.

Embarrassing?

Anyway, hurry up!

Get into the hard suit.

Now, start pouring.

This makes me feel disgusting.

Pour what?

Yuck, what's this?!

Inner metal. It will completely
envelop your body.

This is so disgusting!

It will set soon.

Now, start.

Nene!

What?

You need a charm to
use the hard suit.

A charm? What is it?

Let the inner metal know
what your command is.

To do that, your brain has to
change your command into
clear language.

Nene, I was able to use
the suit by thinking,

"I want to be stronger
and jump higher."

Incredible!

Me too! "I'm going to be an ultra
cool shining Knight Saber!"

Knight Sabers! Action!

Sylia and the others have left,
haven't they?

I tried to stop them.

I wonder if I should have
tried to stop them too?

The result would be the same, so
it would have been wasted.

Nigel!

You'll keep helping Sylia,
won't you?

I... I think I probably won't be able
to stay close to Sylia for long.

You didn't leave her even though
Mason asked you to.

So, I think Sylia...
Sylia, she's...

Don't worry about it.

I'll be the same person in
the future as I'm now.

My life seems to be like that.

Priss!

Mackey, I'm going too!

How did you get a wound
like that?

I wonder if she's okay?

What the hell is this?!

Disgusting!

The Dragon Line, has become
a semi-living thing,

and is spreading the
phenomenon all over.

All underground equipment has
transformed into mad boomers.

The Dragon?! It's that big?!

Linna, you finished off a huge
boomer by yourself earlier!

Now, there are three of us!
We can do it!

Nene!

Yoo-hoo!

Nice work, huh?

Back off!

No way.

Do you want to become a
living thing that badly?

Do you want to cover the entire
world with boomers?!

Galatea!

No!

Nene!

Nene!

Linna!

You're wounded...

Don't worry, go ahead.

I understand.

Linna!

This feeling...

I think I've had an experience like
this a long, long time ago.

Momentary relief with my
comrades, overflowing with smiles.

It was like a dream that we were
fighting together a little while ago.

Anyway, cheers for now.

But...

We're surrounded by boomers!

Next Bubblegum Crisis!
