**[00:19] ---**
Goodbye, young master.
I hope you have a nice trip, yes!
**[00:22] ---**
Right.
**[00:23] ---**
See that you behave
yourselves while we're away.
**[00:26] ---**
Oh, a train trip sounds marvelous!
I want to try it sometime!
**[00:30] ---**
Brilliant!
**[00:31] ---**
Finny! Quit running about like that!
**[00:40] ---**
I'm so sorry!
**[00:42] ---**
Are you all right, yes?!
**[00:44] ---**
Don't touch that!
**[00:46] ---**
That's a valuable scholarly resource!
**[00:48] ---**
Do you have any idea
how much it's worth?!
**[00:55] ---**
A mummy, eh?
**[00:57] ---**
I believe there's been somewhat
of an Egyptian antiquities boom
**[00:59] ---**
amongst the moneyed classes recently.
**[01:02] ---**
A mummy would be a
valuable collector's item.
**[01:05] ---**
"Collector's item"?!
**[01:09] ---**
Forgive us, O Lord.
**[01:14] ---**
Pack it up this instant!
**[01:15] ---**
Yes, Sir!
**[01:17] ---**
And be gentle about it.
**[01:24] ---**
I pray no calamity shall befall you.

**[03:13] ---**
Would you like your tea, young master?
**[03:17] ---**
I find the aroma of Williamson
& Magor's summer Darjeeling
**[03:20] ---**
perfectly suited to the sight of
greenery through a train window.
**[03:26] ---**
Young master, we're meant
to seem as if we're on holiday.
**[03:30] ---**
The criminal will spot us like this.
**[03:32] ---**
Please try to look a bit pleasanter.
**[03:34] ---**
I know, I know.
**[03:36] ---**
Are you really that preoccupied
with the Trancys, my lord?
**[03:40] ---**
No.
**[03:42] ---**
I am curious, of course,
but for the moment that's all.
**[03:46] ---**
Right now the Queen's orders take priority.
**[03:54] ---**
That's Lord Ackroyd, then?
**[03:56] ---**
And the boy kidnapped was his only son.
**[03:59] ---**
Yes.
**[04:00] ---**
If the police find out, the
hostage will be killed.
**[04:04] ---**
He was instructed to bring
the ransom aboard this train.
**[04:08] ---**
And the ransom is 5,000 pounds...
**[04:11] ---**
I take it that's the price
humans set for their own souls.
**[04:17] ---**
The kidnapper must be
somewhere on this train.
**[04:20] ---**
We'll find him, capture him,
and safely rescue the hostage.
**[04:24] ---**
That's the only way to
dispel Her Majesty's distress.
**[04:27] ---**
Very good.
**[04:29] ---**
"Terrorist Butler"
**[04:41] ---**
It's the find of the century!
**[04:43] ---**
Because what yours truly discovered
**[04:46] ---**
was the pharaoh Smenkhkare,
hidden in the Valley of the Kings!
**[04:50] ---**
It's so crass to brag about robbing a grave.
**[04:54] ---**
I met him once during his lifetime.
**[04:57] ---**
He was an affable man of great virtue.
**[05:02] ---**
Still... Even taking the
desiccation into account,
**[05:05] ---**
his face really seems quite different.
**[05:07] ---**
Then he's a fake?
**[05:09] ---**
Do you mean that
archaeologist is the kidnapper?
**[05:11] ---**
I couldn't say, my lord.
**[05:15] ---**
The train that left
St. Pancras station at exactly 9:00
**[05:18] ---**
will cross the Cambridge-bound
route at Bedford at 10:18!
**[05:23] ---**
This is thrilling! This is not to be missed!
**[05:27] ---**
We'll pull in to Derby Station at 1:05...
**[05:30] ---**
Oh, we'll definitely have a time lag!
**[05:32] ---**
Considering the weather, the
porters will have a hard time of it!
**[05:34] ---**
It'll be about seven minutes, I'd wager!
**[05:35] ---**
Is he reading the timetables?
**[05:37] ---**
Yes, he seems to have a
bizarre obsession with railways.
**[05:45] ---**
What do you think you're
doing, you damned brat?!
**[05:51] ---**
I see you're from Japan.
**[05:53] ---**
The scrollwork on that
*furoshiki* wrapping cloth is lovely.
**[05:56] ---**
Don't touch it! This is a
precious family heirloom!
**[06:01] ---**
*What's inside? Is he hiding something?*
**[06:04] ---**
I'm sorry, my boy. He's just so stubborn.
**[06:08] ---**
Here, a token of our apologies.
**[06:11] ---**
No thank you, Ma'am.
**[06:14] ---**
Oh, I see.
**[06:16] ---**
Well, then, would anyone else like one?
**[06:18] ---**
I have plenty.
**[06:20] ---**
There are some with *bonito
*flakes and some with pickled plums!
**[06:22] ---**
Here, please take one.
**[06:24] ---**
None of your bloody Oriental food.
**[06:26] ---**
Everyone says cholera is rampant in Asia!
**[06:30] ---**
Shoo, shoo!
**[06:31] ---**
That's an outrageous falsehood!
**[06:34] ---**
Stop that.
**[06:36] ---**
Don't you think it's rude
for you to take that attitude
**[06:39] ---**
with travelers who
have come all this way?
**[06:42] ---**
--Sod off!
**[06:42] ---**
--As the Holy Book tells us,
those who travel will be blessed.
**[06:43] ---**
--Eyes front!
**[06:45] ---**
--And the 14:45 train isn't to
be dismissed lightly, either!
**[06:48] ---**
--I'm sure it's God's will
that brought us together here.
**[06:52] ---**
*A tattoo on a priest?*
**[06:54] ---**
My, my.
**[06:57] ---**
Everyone please calm down!
**[07:01] ---**
Cool down and sit down!
**[07:05] ---**
I can understand your unease!
**[07:08] ---**
Yes, we're transporting
an assassin on this train.
**[07:13] ---**
However! He is being
kept under strict armed guard,
**[07:17] ---**
unable to move a muscle!
**[07:19] ---**
There's no need to wor--
**[07:22] ---**
Run!
**[07:31] ---**
I recognize him.
**[07:34] ---**
Oh! Why, you're the Phantomhive--
**[07:39] ---**
Eel pie and mash really
brings back memories!
**[07:42] ---**
Traditional English food,
just like Mum used to make!
**[07:50] ---**
I say, that was quite a
fuss back there, wasn't it?
**[07:53] ---**
And whose fault is that?
**[07:56] ---**
At any rate, Sir Arthur will call
you on the carpet for dining with me.
**[08:02] ---**
Pish posh. I've wanted to
get better acquainted with you.
**[08:07] ---**
You see, my twin brother
talked so much about you.
**[08:11] ---**
Brother?
**[08:13] ---**
There's another one
of these stuffy men?
**[08:18] ---**
Yes. I wish he could have tasted this...
**[08:24] ---**
*It doesn't look like he
knows about the kidnapping.*
**[08:42] ---**
What is it?
**[08:43] ---**
Nothing. Shall we go, young master?
**[08:55] ---**
No, Ciel! If you don't take a rest
after meals, you'll ruin your stomach!
**[09:06] ---**
"Leave the suitcase
with the ransom money
**[09:08] ---**
in the very last lounge car."
**[09:11] ---**
I must say, there are quite a few
suspicious characters on this train.
**[09:16] ---**
Yes...
**[09:17] ---**
A priest with a tattoo,
a sham archaeologist,
**[09:21] ---**
a surly Japanese, a man
in a frenzy over timetables...
**[09:26] ---**
They're all too blatantly suspicious.
**[09:29] ---**
And if there's an assassin onboard as well...
**[09:33] ---**
Excuse me.
**[09:42] ---**
You're that porter from the station.
**[09:44] ---**
What are you doing on this
train dressed like a traveler?
**[09:48] ---**
Damn!
**[09:49] ---**
He's the kidnapper!
**[09:59] ---**
Damn it, I can't get the bloody thing to...
**[10:05] ---**
Stop!
**[10:13] ---**
Don't let him get away, Sebastian!
**[10:15] ---**
Very good.
**[10:22] ---**
Now hand that over.
**[10:26] ---**
If you don't make it quick,
the boy's life is over.
**[10:31] ---**
I'm more concerned
about your life, frankly.
**[10:36] ---**
Who are you?!
**[10:38] ---**
Where is your young hostage?
**[10:41] ---**
Onboard that train.
**[10:43] ---**
But you can't save
him now. What a shame!
**[10:47] ---**
By which you mean...?
**[10:49] ---**
I rigged a bomb to explode
as soon as the train stops.
**[10:56] ---**
I thought I'd put on a
nice big fireworks display
**[10:59] ---**
after I got the ransom money!
**[11:08] ---**
We have ten minutes
before the next stop.
**[11:13] ---**
Serves you right!
**[11:17] ---**
There's not much time.
**[11:44] ---**
A car's been decoupled?
**[11:45] ---**
What's going on here?!
**[11:58] ---**
Ciel! What do you mean,
you're going to the goods wagon?!
**[12:01] ---**
We can leave the kidnapper to Sebastian.
**[12:05] ---**
What's left is the child.
**[12:07] ---**
*The criminal must have
disguised himself as a porter*
**[12:09] ---**
*to hide the hostage in someone's luggage.*
**[12:12] ---**
*And...*
**[12:13] ---**
The only piece of luggage
big enough to hide a child
**[12:17] ---**
is that mummy's coffin!
**[12:19] ---**
What?!
**[12:25] ---**
What happened?
**[12:26] ---**
M-My stomach... My stomach hurts!
**[12:31] ---**
This isn't right... I know
I rested enough after I ate!
**[12:38] ---**
You don't suppose it's cholera, do you?!
**[12:40] ---**
Get out of here!
**[12:41] ---**
Stay away!
**[12:43] ---**
How dare you bastards
treat my wife that way?!
**[12:45] ---**
Did you eat one of those rice balls?
**[12:49] ---**
It was delicious.
**[12:59] ---**
This is it?
**[13:07] ---**
H-Help me...
**[13:09] ---**
Just hang on!
**[14:01] ---**
Pardon me.
**[14:03] ---**
There is a bomb on this train
set to go off when we stop.
**[14:07] ---**
Do not brake under any circumstances.
**[14:09] ---**
W-Wait!
**[14:14] ---**
Aren't you Ciel's butler?
**[14:17] ---**
Ow...
**[14:19] ---**
Where is my young master?
**[14:20] ---**
He went to the goods
wagon to save the child...
**[14:24] ---**
I-I have an announcement to make!
The points have just been changed,
**[14:28] ---**
and we're now bound
for a different destination!
**[14:31] ---**
We'll be passing over a
railway bridge no longer in use.
**[14:35] ---**
It won't be able to bear
the weight of this train,
**[14:37] ---**
and therefore our final stop...
**[14:40] ---**
...will most likely be Heaven!
**[14:45] ---**
Then we'd best stop this thing fast.
**[14:48] ---**
Y-You're...
**[14:52] ---**
A hostage again, young master?
**[14:56] ---**
I do believe you enjoy being captured.
**[14:59] ---**
What are you on about?
**[15:01] ---**
So it *was* you...
**[15:04] ---**
Bloodbath Johnny.
**[15:09] ---**
Well, if it isn't Jackknife Heyward!
**[15:14] ---**
*You* ought to know what'll happen
to the kid if you don't stop the train.
**[15:19] ---**
I'd love to stop it myself,
**[15:22] ---**
but I'm afraid there's a bomb
onboard that will explode if we stop...
**[15:28] ---**
N-Not to mention we have a
cholera outbreak in this carriage!
**[15:32] ---**
You may already be infected!
**[15:35] ---**
You're saying a train
with a bomb onboard
**[15:36] ---**
is headed for a run-down bridge,
**[15:38] ---**
*and* there's cholera?!
**[15:40] ---**
It's certainly a full-course menu of crises.
**[15:43] ---**
Enough of this farce. Sebastian,
hurry up and do something about this.
**[15:48] ---**
That's an order!
**[15:49] ---**
Yes, my lord.
**[15:53] ---**
Forget it!
**[15:54] ---**
To hell with your cholera and your bombs!
**[15:56] ---**
I'm getting out of here!
**[15:59] ---**
Young master--
**[16:01] ---**
Not so fast! This is too much
for an ordinary butler to handle!
**[16:04] ---**
At times like these, we get assistance
**[16:07] ---**
from various professionals
who just happen to be onboard!
**[16:10] ---**
We'll all band together
to take a stand against evil!
**[16:12] ---**
I see. What wishful thinking.
**[16:16] ---**
Not necessarily.
**[16:18] ---**
I used to be in the killing business myself.
**[16:22] ---**
But after he killed someone precious to me,
**[16:25] ---**
I went straight and became a priest.
**[16:27] ---**
As the Holy Book tells us,
"Ye are your own enemies."
**[16:33] ---**
It's time to settle the score.
**[16:37] ---**
But right now I don't have
a weapon to face him with.
**[16:41] ---**
Use this!
**[16:49] ---**
This is the family treasure passed
down for generations: the Zantomaru!
**[16:53] ---**
I brought it here to give it to
my son, an exchange student.
**[16:57] ---**
But I'm sure this katana would
be happier being useful here!
**[17:01] ---**
In that case, leave the bomb to me!
**[17:05] ---**
I've used time bombs in my excavations!
**[17:10] ---**
They generally have two
wires: a black one and a red one.
**[17:13] ---**
One is a dummy. If you cut
the right one, you can disable it,
**[17:17] ---**
but if you pick the wrong one--*boom*!
**[17:19] ---**
Still, do we have enough
time to find the bomb...?
**[17:24] ---**
We should be fine!
This point up ahead is crucial!
**[17:28] ---**
Change the point and
enter the High Peak Railway!
**[17:30] ---**
And if we change the next point, too...
**[17:33] ---**
We can gain twenty
whole minutes of extra time!
**[17:40] ---**
Brilliant! We'll all join forces
and find our way out of this!
**[17:47] ---**
I do appreciate the thought,
but I can handle this myself.
**[17:51] ---**
I say! Butler?!
**[17:55] ---**
That man has no notion of
the austere Japanese aesthetic!
**[18:03] ---**
You're a right stubborn bastard!
**[18:06] ---**
Pass me the young master.
**[18:12] ---**
Sure, you just wait there. I'll be right...
**[18:18] ---**
I win!
**[18:20] ---**
What?!
**[18:30] ---**
Come, young master.
**[18:32] ---**
Y-You're a monster!
**[18:37] ---**
Now, then, Mr. Assassin...
**[18:39] ---**
Have a pleasant trip.
**[18:45] ---**
Next, the bomb.
**[18:50] ---**
There may be a red wire and a black wire...
**[19:05] ---**
But there's certainly no
need for me to choose one.
**[19:15] ---**
Hey! If there were
passengers in that carriage...
**[19:19] ---**
Not to worry, my lord.
That was the roof of the dining car.
**[19:23] ---**
And *that* passenger...
**[19:25] ---**
And now...
**[19:57] ---**
That was a close shave, but you managed.
**[20:01] ---**
A Phantomhive butler who can't
handle *this* little full-course menu of crises
**[20:05] ---**
isn't worth his salt.
**[20:17] ---**
Th-That was magnificent, butler.
**[20:22] ---**
That's right! What about the cholera?
**[20:23] ---**
The whole train might be infected by now.
**[20:26] ---**
There's no need for concern, my lord.
**[20:29] ---**
Those whose stomachs
ail them should take this.
**[20:33] ---**
I don't recall there being
an instant cure for cholera.
**[20:35] ---**
Oh, no, this is just a digestive tonic.
**[20:38] ---**
Digestive tonic?
**[20:40] ---**
Japanese tradition has always held
certain food pairings to be harmful.
**[20:43] ---**
Watermelon and tempura,
eel and pickled plum...
**[20:48] ---**
I imagine his stomachache is from
eating a rice ball with pickled plum
**[20:51] ---**
despite having been
served eel pie in the dining car.
**[20:57] ---**
I'm cured! I'm cured!
**[20:59] ---**
It shouldn't work that fast.
**[21:03] ---**
Butler, you are no ordinary butler at--
**[21:05] ---**
I am merely one hell of a butler.
**[21:23] ---**
--Bring it down slowly!
**[21:24] ---**
--Father!
**[21:33] ---**
Here.
**[21:34] ---**
My tea spilled in all the commotion.
**[21:37] ---**
A true butler should have
been able to sort that out
**[21:39] ---**
without the slightest rocking of the train.
**[21:41] ---**
Yes, I can see you
took some damage as well.
**[21:51] ---**
What is that?
**[21:52] ---**
If you wish to investigate my master,
**[21:54] ---**
march into the Trancy mansion
right through the front gate.
**[21:59] ---**
You want to help young master
Ciel take his revenge, don't you?
**[22:14] ---**
*Nemuru anata wa kanashisou de*
**[22:21] ---**

**[23:23] ---**
*Yuku ate mo mienai me de... samayou*
**[23:37] ---**
Yesterday was tiring even for me.
**[23:45] ---**
What's this?
**[23:49] ---**
An invitation to a
ball at the Trancy estate.
**[23:52] ---**
What?!
**[23:54] ---**
Trancy...
**[24:04] ---**
*An invitation to a ball,
sent by the Trancy estate.*
**[24:08] ---**
*Very well. I'll let you
dance to my tune all you like.*
**[24:12] ---**
*Though it appears I'm
the one more accustomed*
**[24:15] ---**
*to wearing the constrictive
dancing shoes of butlerhood...*
**[24:20] ---**
*Next time: "Beacon Butler."*
**[24:22] ---**
*A Phantomhive butler who can't
dance that isn't worth his salt.*
**[24:29] ---**
"Next Time: Beacon Butler"
