#DUPE# (1992–…): Season 2, Episode 15 - No Need for an Escape! - full transcript
After a daring escape from the Juraian military, Tenchi and the gang are branded as fugitives! Mihoshi and Kiyone visit headquarter in search of details on the turbulent times at hand!
We've come to arrest you, Your Highness.
To arrest me?
Ah, you must be joking.
What are the charges anyway?
You are charged with
high treason, Your Highness.
Tenchi!
Oh!
Ryo-Ohki, let's get out of here at top speed!
Do you think they successfully escaped?
I sure hope they did.
But they had to deal
with Jurai's military, so...
I wonder what happened on the
Planet Jurai while we were on Earth.
Well, we may be able to find out
when we get to headquarters.
It's been a long time.
Uh-huh. Finally I'm back!
Headquarters is full of life, isn't it?
Yup! It makes me feel energetic, too.
Well, I'll have to pay a
visit to the detective sergeant
so why don't you get a bite in the cafeteria?
Okay!
Kiyone? Kiyone, is that really you?!
Mitsuki!
Long time no see.
I heard that you were coming
back, but did you just get here?
Yeah, just a moment ago.
You're looking good.
I'm glad to see you back here.
Thanks.
I'm glad you made it back to headquarters.
Since you were demoted
to such a remote area,
we all thought that
was the end of your career.
Oh, really?
Say, do you remember
our contemporary Niwase?
Sure, I remember him.
He is now Chief of the
Public Safety Division, you know.
Really?
And Achi? She's Marshal of the
Sirius Branch. Can you believe it?
So everybody's getting promoted, huh?
You could say that.
By the way, I'm in the
Special Investigation Unit now.
Special Investigation Unit?
Wow! Congratulations.
It's merely a stepping stone for me.
Which section are you assigned to?
Investigation Unit 9, but...
Unit 9?
Oh, the one dealing with
minor incidental jobs, huh?
Good for you. You'll
have plenty of time to relax.
Ah, I'd better be going.
I have pressing work to do.
Kiyone.
I'll see you around.
What a nasty bitch!
Excuse me, Sir.
Detective First Class Kiyone reporting for duty
to the Criminal Investigation
Unit 9 at headquarters as of today.
We've been waiting for your arrival.
I've heard a lot about you, since
you were in the Police Academy.
I always thought you were too good to
be a resident officer in a remote region.
It's very nice of you to say that.
Now that you are here I expect to
see you perform up to your ability.
Yes, Sir!
Kiyone, it has come to my attention
that you were with the Princess Ayeka
of the Planet Jurai while you were on Earth.
Yes, by a strange turn of events.
I thought I'd already
explained all that in my report.
Right now, the Galaxy Police
are searching for Princess Ayeka.
I thought you may have
some idea as to her whereabouts.
The gentleman over there
must be from Jurai's embassy
or the Intelligence Bureau, maybe?
Hmm. You are good.
Mmm! This is good!
The Galactic Network
interrupts its regular programs
for an emergency broadcast regarding
breaking news from the Planet Jurai.
As we already informed you, the
Planet Jurai already has a new emperor
officially approved by the Planetary Council.
What?!
This cannot be happening!
I do not believe this!
Shut up, Ayeka! We can't hear the news!
Ayeka, please be quiet.
The throne had been temporarily vacant
pending marriage by the Princess Ayeka.
The sudden ascendance of a new
emperor has caused some confusion,
but backed by the new emperor
Yosho, the Jurai government announced
that they will have everything under control.
Yosho?
How could it be?
It is impossible.
Yosho?
Yes, that's the name of Jurai's new emperor.
I don't remember having seen that
name among the successors to the throne.
K-Kiyone!
That's quite all right.
You may not have heard of him,
but Yosho is the legitimate successor
of Jurai's royal family
and a legendary warrior.
He came back to the Planet Jurai.
L-I just cannot believe any of this!
Ayeka!
The legendary warrior Yosho,
I have heard that name
many times, since my childhood.
The legendary warrior... Who is he anyway?
He is said to be the best swordsman
in the empire and he is a noble prince
gifted with both intelligence and courage.
But he gave up his position as
the successor and just disappeared.
That was many decades ago.
I do not understand why
he suddenly came forward.
He must be a fake!
It's an old trick of many con men!
Can't be.
At least he is a royal
family member. That's for sure.
Why do you say that?
Because of "Jurai's Power."
It's because of the power only
Jurai's royal family members possess.
"Jurai's Power" is said to
even surpass the power of a god!
Without a demonstration
of this awesome power,
the Council wouldn't have
approved the enthronement.
Besides, I saw it with my own eyes.
I witnessed how powerful Yosho was.
Dissatisfied with the enthronement of Yosho,
Princess Ayeka attempted a
coup and is now a fugitive on the run.
Coup d'état?!
Me?!
You are so bad, Ayeka.
You didn't have to do that just
because you didn't make it to the throne.
Hey, you!
Hey, that's what it said on TV...
What?!
This is a picture of
the space pirate Ryoko
who is acting together with Princess Ayeka.
Ryoko has been a most wanted
criminal quite some time now,
and it is believed that she played
a major part in the attempted coup.
Why would I wanna help
Ayeka with her conspiracy?
Look! Because of you,
even I look like a criminal.
What?! You're the one
who's getting me into trouble.
Princess Sasami and others that
were involved in this attempted coup
are still at large along with Princess Ayeka...
- The station will be continuing its investigation.
- Uh-oh. I'd better tell Kiyone about this news.
Big news! Big news!
Ayeka, you are being framed.
I ask you again, where is
Princess Ayeka? You really have no idea?
I don't know, Sir.
Very well.
I must act with a lot of caution now.
She honestly didn't know, did she?
She didn't...
...but we better keep
our eyes on her for a while.
I agree.
Mihoshi?
Please don't forget our request.
Don't worry about it.
As soon as Ayeka falls into our
trap we'll hand her over to you.
We'd like to keep on good terms
with the Planet Jurai, you know.
Yosho is expecting... remember that.
Whoa! Who are you?
How long have you been here?
Well, I came looking for Kiyone,
but since she's not here... Ha ha!
Where is Mihoshi?
Where could she be wandering around?
Did you hear our conversation?
Oh, no. I didn't hear anything about
Yosho or anything about Ayeka either.
I didn't hear a thing, really.
I think I should be going!
W-Who was that?
I think she is...
Yes. She is Detective First Class
Mihoshi, who was Kiyone's partner!
What?! Capture her immediately!
Yes, Sir! Emergency dispositions!
What is going on?
What is this?
Kiyone!
You are completely surrounded.
Put down your weapon and surrender.
Mitsuki? What in the world is this?
You're under arrest, Detective Kiyone.
Under arrest? Is this a practical joke or what?
I'm sorry, but this isn't a joke.
Ah, please don't move.
I've been ordered to
shoot you down if you resist.
Mitsuki, are you out of your mind?!
What can I say? It's an order.
As you can see, there's
no way you can escape.
I don't know what you did to deserve
this, but you must have been desperate.
You should have come
to me if you had troubles.
I can't help you with
financial problems, but...
Freeze, Kiyone!
Didn't I tell you not to move?
Please put down your weapons quickly.
You must have some more.
Don't you think this is rather dramatic?
It turns out that I'm arresting my classmate.
Don't take it personally though.
This isn't easy for me, you know.
Kiyone, get on! Quickly!
Thank you, Mihoshi.
I owe you one.
Let's get out of here!
You always attract trouble, don't you?
I thought this was your doing.
Besides, you're the longtime wanted criminal!
Oh, yeah. I didn't think Jurai's
military was also after me, though.
You traitor.
Are you calling me a traitor?
Stop, both of you.
This is no time to be arguing.
Hmm. We are now criminals everywhere.
There's no place for us
to hide in this Universe.
What are we going to do now?
I guess we'll just have
to go to the Planet Jurai.
Grandpa!
I don't know who Yosho is,
but I can't think of any other way
to straighten things out
and prove our innocence.
Don't you think so, Ayeka?
Yes!
What is the matter, Ryo-Ohki?
Damn!
Galaxy Police.
It was all because of you, Mihoshi?!
I came to rescue you, didn't I?
You just don't get it, do you? Huh?
Informing all patrolling ships...
Informing all patrolling ships...
We've spotted the suspect Ayeka
and her group in space zone 247.
Rush to the scene at once!
Repeat: We've spotted Ayeka
and her group in space zone 247!
Damn! Ryo-Ohki is
already running out of power.
What?!
Come on, Ryo-Ohki! You can do it!
We're totally surrounded.
There's no way out.
No way out?
What are we gonna do?
We don't seem to have much of a choice.
Will we collide?
Yes... we will collide.
What's going on?
Look! It's Yagami!
Here come some more!
Huh?
They are so persistent.
We're gonna fire another one.
You should take advantage now.
Thanks.
As you may all know we have captured most
of the main claimants to the throne already,
but everything is in vain
unless we capture Princess Ayeka,
who is first in line to the throne.
Listen up. We can't fail in this mission.
This is a supreme order from Emperor Yosho.
Long live the new emperor of the Planet Jurai!
We have discovered two
new members of the conspiracy
involved in the coup with Princess Ayeka.
They are Detectives First
Class Kiyone and Mihoshi.
They are both in active service,
but they are said to have escaped
from Galaxy Police headquarters in
order to join the rest of their group.
The Galaxy Police were
rather upset and embarrassed
by the misconduct of the two active officers.
I not only have to kiss my promotion
good-bye, but now I am a wanted criminal!
What's gonna happen to my life?
Cheer up, Kiyone.
We can all be together again, right?
Everything will work out
once we get to the Planet Jurai.
Mihoshi, you are my bad luck charm.
Excuse us.
Sorry to trouble you like this.
Please escort us to the Planet Jurai.
Ryo-Ohki, are you all right?
OK, we're gonna cross the
Galaxy all the way to the Planet Jurai!
Ryoko, you've got some kind of
nerve drinking at a time like this!
I see the no smoking sign, but I don't
see a no drinking sign around here.
You are just a drunkard.
What's your problem?
Hey, shut up!
Come on now. Let's try
to get along, shall we?
What's gonna happen to my life?
Even the Goddess of Justice,
who is supposed to be fair and just,
can be blinded sometimes.
Marked by conspiracy as a wanted criminal,
Princess Ayeka heads home for Planet Jurai.
While on the run, she has to
disguise herself as a bar owner
scamming businessmen working
in space to survive day by day.
Next episode is: "No Need for Hiding!"
I wonder if we should be doing this.
It's unquestionably sexy!
To arrest me?
Ah, you must be joking.
What are the charges anyway?
You are charged with
high treason, Your Highness.
Tenchi!
Oh!
