Fullmetal Alchemist (2003–2004): Season 1, Episode 32 - Fukai mori no Dante - full transcript
After a dangerous battle with Wrath, Izumi has all she can take of Ed and Al's reckless pursuit of their goal. She sends them to meet Dante, the alchemist who taught Izumi decades ago, and also knew their father. But there is little time for idle chat, as Envy, Sloth and Greed have all entered the vicinity.
Al!
Al!
Sensei!
Sensei!
Al!
Al!
Al!
Brother!
That right arm of yours is a nuisance.
I'm going to pull off all that useless stuff...
...those ugly mechanical parts!
How dare you!?
And then I'll take everything that is left over.
Why, you...!
Why, you...
Al!
Al, no!
Al...
Brother... you said a Homunculus
couldn't use alchemy, right?
But this guy is different.
I've figured out his secret.
When his right arm and left leg form a circle,
...he can transmute the outside of
his body into other materials.
He can change his body because he is a Homunculus.
But he can use alchemy because...
Because he has Ed's limbs in those places?
My...?
Give them back! Those belong to Brother!
They're Brother's arm and leg!
Give them back!
Why, you...!
Al!
Fine by me!
Brother!
Al! Please, stop already!
What are you talking about?
He's a Homunculus.
He's not human.
But still, that boy is Izumi's...
Maybe so...
You want my arm, do you?
It's my arm!
You gained something for the
price of this leg, didn't you?
You paid for your brother with this arm.
In that case, what are you going to pay
to deprive me of my arm and leg?
An equivalent exchange.
Stop jerking me around!

Sensei...
Ed! Al!
I forbid you to get involved!
That boy is my transgression,
...and I will...
Sensei!
Hold it!
Winry! Take care of Sensei!
Just a minute! Ed! Al!
Fullmetal Alchemist, I understand that this
is the island where you did your training.
Brother, that woman...
Fuhrer, what are you doing here?
It appears we are looking for
the same thing as you are.
A Homunculus?
I hear that's what the enemy calls itself.
However, do you guys know...
...how a Homunculus is born?
According to tradition, it is said that
Homunculus is the grown-up form...
...of the botched product that is born when
someone attempts a human transmutation.
It was written in your father's research, as well.
I don't care about that guy.
That's fine. But if the boy that Lt. Col.
Archer found really is a Homunculus...
...that would mean that someone had
attempted a human transmutation.
Human transmutation is impermissible,
no matter what the circumstances are.
Do you have any idea who this person might be?
We should follow the escaped Homunculus.
Our men are already pursuing him.
I'm sorry, but I don't know. We're in
a hurry here, so if you don't mind...
Brother...
We can't tell them about Sensei, you know.
Maybe so, but...
Well? How does it feel, holding him?
It's not bad.
Wrath... that makes all seven of us.
After all this time, how about we
go to that woman's place?
Luckily, it's close by, and we do
need to tell her about Greed.
Why Greed?
Because it was her who created Greed.
Why!?
Why would you show that to my brother!?
The man understood everything I told him.
What I handed down to him were the ancient
memories of the Ishbalan people.
And as a result, my brother...!
You must not forget.
Inside here, they are still alive.
Countless lives...
- He's here!
Due to circumstances beyond our control,
we left our established residences.
As their leader, I will bear full responsibility.
You do know that new residences have been
established here in the south, right?
You will all be taken there.
Make sure that you tell them
not to offer any resistance.
Right.
However, before that happens, we will be
checking everyone's names and faces.
Every last one of you.
Is there... someone you're looking for?
Begin.
Please, be careful. I'm sure I saw that
homicidal maniac from Central.
I saw his wanted poster at the home of
someone I was taking care of earlier.
Let's hope you didn't mistake him for someone else.
Mama!
You all!
Hey, where is he!? The man
with the x-shaped scar!?
Don't try to to hide him!
What, what!?
J-Just you try doing anything against me!
The military won't stand for...
A-A gunshot!?
I didn't hear any gunfire!
Stop! Don't shoot!
Stop firing, you stupid bastards!
Everyone, calm down!
Who was it that acted against this man?
- Is the massacre going to repeat itself!?
- Right! How can we keep silent any longer!?
!
Our people have been killed!
Go back where you came from, now!
Yeah! Get out of here!
I'm going to suppress them. Cover me.
Colonel...?
What are you waiting for?
I told you to cover me!
And wipe your forehead, would you?
Yes, sir!
Good grief. What a pathetic story,
both for master and pupil.
Ed, Al...
...I must draw the line somewhere.
You are expelled.
I did not teach you alchemy so that
your bodies would end up like this.
I don't want to see any more of
your disgraceful fighting, either.
Sensei...
Thank you... for taking care of us.
Please, take care.
Are you sure youwant to go
back home like this, you two?
Okay, then...
Yeah. Come by again if you're ever around.
But...
She expelled us, and all, right?
Foolish brats!
Now that you are neither master nor pupil, it means you
can start dealing with each other as equal individuals.
That's right! Now, you don't have to feel
so constrained by her, do you?
Damn it. Al, we're going back!
Huh? Mm-hmm!
Don't get killed.
Sensei! We came here to get some kind of lead
as to how to get our original bodies back!
We're not going to leave here empty-handed!
Leave!
We refuse!
We want to know the whereabouts of a true Philosopher's
Stone, not the one made by sacrificing human lives.
Leave.
We're not leaving!
I'll cut you up!
Cut us if you will...
I'm sure that returning that boy
over to the other side is...
That is my transgression.
I cannot teach you how to do it.
We will take the transgression
upon ourselves, as well!
You morons...
You have someone watching the brothers, right?
Yes, sir.
Don't be caught off guard. If anything
happens, let me know immediately.
Yes, sir.
The Elric Brothers again?
What choice do we have?
We received a response from Central that the
Fuhrer did in fact drop by down south here,
and conducted his own personal
investigation into the Homunculus.
Which is exactly the opposite of
what they said yesterday.
And with investigations pertaining to the Homunculus
now under the direct supervision of the Fuhrer...
We're going find out everything the brothers
know, like we were originally going to.
There's the possibility that the
Chimera might appear again.
Kimbly, too.
Let's go.
This is a foul place we've come to.
Greed?
Roa, you guys go back to Devil's Nest.
Are you going off someplace by yourself?
There's just something that's bothering me.
I see.
Al, you don't remember anything about
the other side of the doorway, right?
No.
If not, then Al's body, together with those
memories, could still be on the other side.
How can we get them back from there?
If we use a Philosopher's Stone, we can ignore the principle
of equivalent exchange, and open the doorway once again.
Equivalent exchange, huh?
Ed, do you believe in that?
Of course he does! In order for something to be obtained,
it must be accompanied by something of equal value.
And not just in alchemy, that's a universal
principle throughout the whole world.
If that's so... then that boy who lost his
own life, before he was ever born.
What did he obtain for that price?
Apparently, I'm not that good a teacher.
Meisun!
Yes?
Show these two where Dante's house is.
Tomorrow, they will go there to get some medicine.
Did you think you were going to stay here for free?
I wonder what kind of person this Dante is.
A famous pharmacist, from what Meisun said.
Brother, there's something that's been bothering me.
Supposing that Homunculi are born
when a human transmutation fails...
Come on, Al, let's get a move on!
Anyone home?
We've been expecting you.
Dante is waiting for you inside.
Huh?
Y-You're...!
- Lyra!
I'm terribly sorry for what happened on that occasion.
What are you doing here?
I am employed here as Dante's pupil.
Someday, I want to become as
superb an alchemist as Dante is.
Dante is an alchemist?
Yes.
This is all thanks to you. You taught
me something very important.
Your character has completely changed, huh?
Come in.
I have brought them.
I've been waiting for you, Elric Brothers.
You're Dante?
Yes. I was surprised to find out
that you were Izumi's students.
I've heard what is going on.
I will get her medicine ready at once.
Um, by any chance, did our Sensei also...?
Yes. Long ago, she learned alchemy here.
Really?
Yes.
Then, Dante, that makes you our sensei's sensei!
I suppose that's what it means.
Hey, now, how did a guy like
me get to be so lucky?
And here, I just came by to see a familiar face.
Well, there's no letting them out of my sight now.
Are you serious about that?
You are a fellow State Alchemist.
Hey, we just got word from Greed.
It sounds like he needs some more hands.
Please, think it over carefully.
Dante, why did you decide to become an alchemist?
Let's see...
It may sound corny, but I suppose
Ie.
Alchemy is something that people need.
Of course, the alchemy by itself
isn't anything that special.
But when it comes to helping others, that's
something that alchemy can do.
I'd like for people that strive to be happy
to be rewarded for as hard as they work.
That's the way I felt.
Equivalent exchange...?
Yes. People can only gain only
one thing for one effort.
That is the absolute truth.
Dante, what do you think about
the Philosopher's Stone?
Are you two searching for the
Philosopher's Stone, too?
N-No, we were...
All those who have sought the Philosopher's
Stone have become sad and unhappy.
It may be that it is too soon for
mankind to acquire the Stone.
You know, you bear such a resemblance to him.
Your father, Hoheneim the Light, also
sought the Philosopher's Stone.
Our father did?
Do you know where your father is?
I don't even want to know.
Brother...
They've split up.
Handle the rest like we planned.
Got it?
Go!
Now, then...
You...!
Why, you...!
You must be surprised.
I call it the Mightiest Shield.
Lyra?
Lyra...!
Don't move!
As long as you don't resist, I have
no intention of harming her.
Dante!
Good day.
Who are you folks?
We're kidnappers.
Kidnappers?
Alphonse Elric...
...you'll have to come with us.
But my Sensei taught me that
I shouldn't go with strangers.
What are you, stupid?
Just how old are you?
Fourteen.
If you're fourteen, then you're old enough to
think and behave all by yourself, aren't you?
Listen up. If you're a real man,
then act on your own will!
Mm-hmm.
You can't go on forever doing things
just because your Sensei said to.
I get it. I have to think for myself, huh?
Absolutely right.
Now come with us...
After thinking about it for myself,
...I've decided that I'm not going to go with strangers.
Not bad.
Fullmetal Alchemist!
Episode 33: "Al Taken Prisoner"
I have no intention of dealing with thugs
that have taken my brother!
