#DUPE# (1992–…): Season 2, Episode 22 - No Need for Knights! - full transcript

Tenchi and the gang stumble upon the final resting place of a legendary pair of Juraian knights!

Princess Ayeka has managed
to pass through our checkpoint

and enter into Jurai territory.

His Majesty Yosho is most
upset about this failure in defense.

Update us with the current status, Admiral.

Yes.

As you can see,

my armada is deployed to cover the entire
Jurai planetary system in search of her.

It is only a matter of time
until we capture Princess Ayeka.

Finally, we are in Jurai territory.

Yes. You know, I can't believe
we managed to make it this far.

Yeah, with all the things that
happened during our journey.



Indeed.

I just hope our luck will hold out
until we can prove our innocence.

So do I, Tenchi.

Then you can return to the Jurai royal family,

and the rest of us can
finally go home to planet Earth.

What is it, Ayeka? Is anything wrong?

No, there's nothing wrong.

Thanks, Mihoshi. It's my
turn to take the shift now.

Just how many hours a
day does she need to sleep?

Oh, no!

That's a confirmation, Sir!
That ship is Yagami!

Very good! Commence attack immediately!

We cannot let them escape!

Ohh! I'm really sorry!



You're sorry?! Just how long
a nap did you take this time?!

It's no use! We can't shake them!

We've got to!

There must be a way, Kiyone!

There's a cluster of stars
at 25 degrees starboard.

We need to head our ship to the center of it.

What do you mean, Grandpa?

Hurry up now, or they'll catch up with us.

I don't think so. I have no data on it.

You see?! Nothing shows
up on the space map.

The sacred place!

Heh? Oh, no, it can't be!

The sacred place of Jurai?!

The sacred place...

...of Jurai?

What on earth is it, anyway?

The sacred place is the forbidden space in
Jurai territory where no one is allowed to enter.

Hey, that's perfect. I say let's go!

No way! It's a forbidden place,
Ryoko! We can't go in there!

We can't worry about that now!

Come on! Hurry!

The target has changed course.

We'll be breaking into the
sacred place, if we follow them!

What?!

Shall we pursue them, Sir?!

No. We can't do that!

We have to contact Jurai
headquarters to get permission first!

Yes, Sir!

And we were so close to catching them...

This is the sacred place.

Looks like they're not following us.

Good work, Kiyone.

Now adjust our course
about seven degrees down.

We should see a planet ahead of us, I think.

Grandpa...

Ah, I'm tired, and we'll get some rest there.

Old bones get tired easily, you know.

Lord Katsuhito, are we truly heading for...

I thought we probably should
have your originals join our force.

So I am taking your lives
in custody, if you don't mind.

Who are you really?

I am the one you think I am.

Grandpa!

Grandpa, how come you
know all these things anyway?

About the cluster of stars
and the sacred place of Jurai?

How do you know, Grandpa?

I'll tell you, Tenchi there are things I was
hoping you would never need to know,

but it just may be your
destiny to know them after all.

Huh?

Listen, Tenchi, whatever happens from
now on you stand firm and face your destiny

without fear, but with courage.

I don't know what you're talking about.

You will know, and soon, Tenchi.

Grandpa...

I wonder if that's the planet where
they say the two knights are sealed in?

The two knights, Ayeka?

Yes.

It's one of the legends
handed down in Jurai royal family.

A long, long time ago, there were two
knights who fought to protect the king of Jurai.

The two knights had great
strength hidden within them.

Such great strength, it is
said they could shatter stars.

When the battle was over, they
put themselves into a long sleep.

The legend has it that, when
Jurai's royal family is in danger,

they will rise once again to fight
alongside the current Jurai king.

Oh...

Okay, so how much
farther do we have to go?

We're almost there now.

What is it you're looking
for at the end of this road?

The hands that will help.

Hmm?

On our own, we are not powerful
enough to enter the Jurai palace,

so it is necessary for us to get
some help: The most powerful help of all.

The helping hands I'm
counting on are over there. Look.

Even I get the creeps in this place. It's spooky.

It sure is. I'm scared.

Look!

Wait a minute. Are they...

Hmm.

I see.

I knew it.

Grandfather, tell me, who are you really?

Are you two ready now?

- Yes, Sir!
- Yes, Sir!

Very well. Let's proceed.

It's...

It is Jurai's power!

Azaka and Kamidake have been resurrected.

I see now that our
guardians were programmed,

with the personalities of these two knights;

the two knights loyal to Jurai's
royal family: Azaka and Kamidake.

My lord, we have risen
from the sleep of Hades...

...our lord, the king of Jurai.

Now don't misunderstand me.
I am not the king of Jurai.

Such a thing is not our concern, for we
know that without the righteous Jurai power

it would have been impossible to awaken us.

I recognize the power you possess
is no less than that of King Jurai I,

and we will serve you.

It is true I am not the Jurai king.

However, I admit that I am a lineal
descendant of the Jurai royal family.

Grandpa!

My name is Yosho, and I once
abandoned the Jurai royal family.

Incoming communication
from the armada, Sir!

Put it on the screen!

The council has given its permission.
Resume pursuit immediately!

Yes, Sir!

Use any means necessary to immobilize
Princess Ayeka until the armada arrives!

Understood?

I understand, Sir!

One day, after a long and wandering
journey I arrived on planet Earth.

I was alone and grief-stricken.
The Earth seemed a gentle place to my eyes.

Devout people in the far reach of the universe.

I decided to remain on planet
Earth until the end of my days.

I met my wife and,
through marriage with her

I became the son-in-law of
the keeper of the Masaki Shrine.

It was then that I was given
the name Katsuhito Masaki.

Of course I immediately recognized it
was Washu sealed in the Masaki Shrine.

I was surprised to find
the legendary mad scientist

had drifted ashore on such a remote planet.

Hey, this is the first time
I've ever heard all this!

Why didn't you tell me this story
when I married your daughter?!

You mean I should have told you
I was from outer space? Now, really!

That means I...

That's right. You're a lineal
descendant of the Jurai royal family.

Really?!

Tenchi... is a descendant of Jurai.

And that makes the
Yosho of planet Jurai a fake.

Yeah, but he's gotta be connected to
Jurai's royal family in some way, I bet.

Katsuhito... no. Lord Yosho!

You're quite something

to have been able to hide the Jurai power
you possess from my eyes all this time.

But you don't have to hide anything anymore!

You have an idea about the true
identity of the enemy, don't you?

Mmm...

Oh, no! They're here!

Stay where you are.

It is impossible for you to escape!

Oh, my! Hurry! We've got to run!

Yeah, but run where?!

Ryo-Ohki!

- Oh, no! Ryo-Ohki?!
- How dare you?!

All right! We've restrained Ryo-Ohki!

Prepare to attack!

Yes, Sir!

Let us deal with them!

You don't need to worry now.

Yeah!

Let's go, Kamidake. We need some exercise.

Oh, yeah!

Fire!

W-Wow!

Are you all right, Ryo-Ohki?!

Well, that was quite easy, actually.

Princess, you're not hurt, are you?

I'm okay... thank you.

They... aren't dead, are they?

They have discharged all their energy
in order to resurrect the two knights.

You have served well
for so long on our behalf.

I thank you.

And now we will take over your
work and you may rest in peace.

I thank you...

Azaka...

Kamidake.

Now you can rest.

I am Azaka, a knight of Jurai.

And I am Kamidake.

From now on, we pledge our allegiance to you.

We can see it clearly.

We know the one who will
carry on the noble cause.

Indeed and I'm counting on you.

So... they lost them in the sealed land.

Yes, Sir.

I understand. You may go.

Yes, Your Majesty.

The seal of the two knights can
only be broken by the Jurai king.

Yes... he has finally returned.

I look forward to meeting
you in person... Yosho.

Now, really!

How many hours of sleep a
day can she possibly need?!

There! Take this!

You can't beat me!

Yay!

You beat me again, Princess.

Practice, Azaka.

I lose face every time I play this game!

Well, we didn't have toys like this in our day.

Princess! One more time!

Please allow me to try one
more time, Your Highness!

Okay!

Tenchi is a descendant
of the Jurai royal family.

The legendary warrior Yosho
turns out to be my own grandpa.

But then who's the man dominating
the royal palace as Jurai emperor

claiming himself to be Yosho?

What happened between
him and grandpa in the past?

We'll see the missing pieces
of the puzzle fall into place.

It is time for Grandpa to face the
false emperor at the old royal palace

where it all began eons ago.

The two most powerful men in the
universe meet again in the final duel.

Next episode is: "No Need for Karma!"

It's unquestionably fierce.
