    Listen up, you guys!
[02:46] ---
    Cold season is just around the corner!
SIGN    KILLER T CELLS
    (CYTOTOXIC T CELLS):
    Mobilize under orders
    from the Helper T Cells.
    Assassins who recognize and destroy
    foreign cells, such as Graft Cells,
    virus-infected cells and Cancer Cells.

    foreign cells, such as Graft Cells,
[02:58] ---
    virus-infected cells and Cancer Cells.
SIGN    THE COMMON COLD:
    Medically speaking, the "common cold syndrome,"
    inflammation of the respiratory system,
    or the generic term for such symptoms.
    Also known as "cold" or "acute upper
    respiratory inflammation." Inflammation causes
    sneezing, runny nose, stuffed-up nose,
    sore throat, coughing, phlegm or fever.
[03:01] ---
    This area here, near the head and throat,
    is especially vulnerable to viruses!
[03:06] ---
    If you spot an infected cell,
[03:08] ---
    make sure you annihilate it
    the second you hear the order!
[03:11] ---
    Yes, sir!
[03:12] ---
    I can't hear you!
[03:14] ---
    Yes, sir!
[03:15] ---
    All right, one more time!
[03:16] ---
    Yes, sir!
[03:18] ---
    If you see an infected cell?
[03:20] ---
    Annihilate it!
[03:22] ---
    The second you hear the order?
[03:23] ---
    Annihilate it!
[03:25] ---
    Protect against colds!
[03:26] ---
    Yeah!
[03:27] ---
    Jeez! What a racket! Every single day!
[03:27] ---
    Protect against colds!
[03:29] ---
    Yeah!
[03:30] ---
    Protect against colds!
[03:30] ---
    Huh! They're talking
    about annihilating us cells.
[03:30] ---
    CELL
[03:31] ---
    Yeah!
[03:32] ---
    Protect against colds!
[03:34] ---
    Yeah!
[03:34] ---
    Just because they happen to have
    an out-of-the-ordinary job...
[03:35] ---
    All right, follow me!
[03:37] ---
    They sure are full of themselves!
[03:40] ---
    We're the invincible T Cells!
[03:43] ---
    There's nothing in this world that we fear!
[03:46] ---
    We're the invincible T Cells!
[03:49] ---
    And we're gonna annihilate
    those virus cells!
[03:55] ---
    All right.
[03:57] ---
    Time to get to work, I guess.
[03:59] ---
    Compared to those guys
    from the immune system,
[04:02] ---
    our jobs as mere common cells must seem...
SIGN    CELL CYCLE CHECKPOINT:
    A control mechanism to assess
    whether the cell cycle
    is progressing normally.
    If any anomalies are found,
    it directs the cell cycle to stop
    or to slow down. The cells themselves
    are equipped with this control mechanism.

[04:25] ---
    What a drag. Seriously.
[04:29] ---
    Making copies that aren't
    even cute, over and over...
SIGN    CELL DIVISION:
    When a single cell divides into two
    or more cells. Following interphase,
    when the DNA is replicated, the cell
    enters the mitotic stage when cell division
    occurs. The series of events that take place
    from the moment one division ends
    until the end of the next division
    is called the "cell cycle." The number of times
    a cell can divide depends on its type.

SIGN    EQUATORIAL PLANE:
    During metaphase of mitosis,
    the plane at the center of the spindle
    in which the chromosomes
    are arranged.
[05:10] ---
    This same task over and over, huh?
[05:13] ---
    For the rest of my life.

    VIRUS DANGER!
[05:25] ---
    Oh man, I can't take it anymore!
[05:29] ---
    I wish something fun would happen.
[05:55] ---
    A cell?
[06:02] ---
    It's wearing some kinda fancy hat!
[06:05] ---
    Plus, its face is pale!
[06:13] ---
    Hey, what are you doing?
[06:16] ---
    All right!
[06:17] ---
    Before we take a break, make sure
    you wash your hands and gargle!
[06:21] ---
    You hapless fools!
[06:22] ---
    Yes, sir!
[06:24] ---
    It's that gang of loudmouths!
[06:26] ---
    Squad Leader!
    Please take a look at this!
[06:30] ---
    This was delivered here.
[06:32] ---
    THANK YOU, ALWAYS
[06:34] ---
    It says, "Thank you, always."
[06:36] ---
    Is that a present?
[06:39] ---
    There could be something dangerous inside!
[06:42] ---
    Let me open it over here!
[06:43] ---
    I-Idiot! Give it to me!
[06:45] ---
    I-I can't expose you guys to danger!
[06:49] ---
    I'll open it!
[06:51] ---
    S-Squad Leader!
[06:53] ---
    Please be careful!
[06:56] ---
    I see. A present from a civilian, huh?
[06:59] ---
    Not that I want a present,
    but that's a pretty sweet move.
[07:26] ---
    Are you all right, Squad Leader?
[07:28] ---
    Squad Leader!
[07:29] ---
    Are you all right?
[07:31] ---
    S-Squad Leader?
[07:39] ---
    S-Squad Leader...
[07:40] ---
    That was careless of you,
    wouldn't you say, Squad Leader?
[07:43] ---
    Shush! Watch your mouth!
[07:51] ---
    Why, you!
[07:54] ---
    Come back here, damn you!
[07:56] ---
    I'm gonna annihilate you!
    You stupid cells!
[08:00] ---
    Come back here, dammit!
[08:05] ---
    THIS WAY
    LYMPH DUCT
[08:12] ---
    Dammit! Those jerks are so fast!
[08:15] ---
    Next time I get the order to mobilize,
[08:17] ---
    my first order of business
    will be to clobber you senseless!
[08:23] ---
    Don't you forget that!
[08:30] ---
    That was scary!
[08:33] ---
    So did you make that yourself?
[08:36] ---
    Just for this?
[08:40] ---
    Is that all you can say? Jeez!
[08:50] ---
    Hey, you're pretty funny, you know?
[08:59] ---
    What?
[09:01] ---
    What, farther?
[09:03] ---
    Okay, Okay! Let's have some fun!

[09:50] ---
    He's searching for something!
[09:53] ---
    D-Don't tell me...
[09:55] ---
    He's looking for us?
[09:58] ---
    Those Immune Cells are bad news!
[10:03] ---
    What? Sit back and watch, did you say?
[10:14] ---
    Still nothing?
[10:33] ---
    What the...
[10:35] ---
    Oh crap, where is it?
[10:38] ---
    Hey, you over there!
[10:40] ---
    There seems to be an enemy
    lurking nearby!
[10:42] ---
    It's dangerous,
    so stay close to me for now!
[10:48] ---
    Cell boy?
[10:49] ---
    I can't hear you!
[10:51] ---
    Uh...
[10:53] ---
    Hello?
[10:58] ---
    This is awesome!
[11:00] ---
    Let's make some more mischief!
[11:06] ---
    Cells...
[11:07] ---
    ...at Work!
[11:12] ---
    Cells at Work.
[11:25] ---
    No one there.

    Well, I don't have to do any manual labor.
[12:20] ---
    And I can drink tea.
[12:28] ---
    Smells heavenly!
[12:35] ---
    Did an antigen show up here just now?
[12:37] ---
    Never mind that!
[12:39] ---
    Who switched our salt and sugar around?
[12:41] ---
    Dammit, I got here too late, huh?
[12:44] ---
    Hey, do you have a tissue on you? Hey you!
[12:47] ---

[12:56] ---
    A shortcut!
[13:00] ---
    H-Help!
[13:03] ---
    Big Sister Red Blood Cell, are you okay?
[13:07] ---
    J-Just barely!
[13:09] ---
    There's construction going on here.
[13:14] ---
    A smashing success!
[13:23] ---
    All right, everyone, time to go to work!
[13:26] ---
    Right!
[13:27] ---
    Now then, let's all work hard today!
[13:33] ---
    Oh my!
[13:47] ---
    Oh my.
[13:55] ---
    My receptor's going off!
[13:56] ---
    It's an enemy!
[13:56] ---
    Find it!
[13:57] ---
    Where is it? Where is it?
[14:02] ---
    HISTAMINE
[14:18] ---
    These divine droplets
    that wash away evil from this world...
[14:23] ---
    They rain down only on corrupt souls.
[14:28] ---
    But pay close attention, my friends.
[14:32] ---
    Negligence is corruption of the soul.
[14:35] ---
    Forget that, and...
[14:38] ---
    this utopia will transform into a dystopia.
[14:45] ---
    I've never had fun like this before!
[14:49] ---
    Still, I'm really impressed by the way
    you keep coming up with ideas for pranks!
[14:55] ---
    It's like you totally have nothing to fear.
[14:58] ---
    I mean, aren't you afraid
    of getting yelled at?
[15:01] ---
    Those Immune Cells are always so tough
    and violent, so they piss me off.
[15:05] ---
    But it's so much fun
    pulling pranks on them!
[15:10] ---
    But I'd better get back to work now.
[15:15] ---
    You're coming over?
[15:20] ---
    Good idea. Why don't you
    have a cup of tea with me?
[15:29] ---
    You know what,
    ever since I set off on my own,
[15:31] ---
    my cell division work has been taking up
    all my time, day after day.
[15:35] ---
    So, I don't have any real friends, not one.
[15:39] ---
    If it's okay with you,
    let's go on being friends, huh?
[15:43] ---
    Come to think of it, I never asked.
    What kinda cell are you?
[15:48] ---
    That hat you're wearing...
    It's stylish, you know?
[15:59] ---
    What's this?
[16:03] ---
    Is this a hat?
[16:07] ---
    Huh? You're giving it to me?
[16:10] ---
    Did you just say, "Put it on"?
    Oh hey, that's all right. I couldn't!
[16:13] ---
    No, hey...
[16:16] ---
    What? What's wrong?
[16:23] ---
    H-Help!
[16:27] ---
    What the heck?
    There are tons of them!
[16:43] ---
    Stop it! Don't touch the cloning device!
[16:46] ---
    Are you taking it over? Hey!
[16:50] ---
    Hey you! Don't tell me...
[16:53] ---
    you were a virus-infected cell all along?
[16:58] ---
    Just when I thought I'd made a friend...
[17:02] ---
    All he wanted to do was use me!
[17:09] ---
    Stop it!
[17:10] ---
    I said stop it!
[17:12] ---
    Stop it!
[17:13] ---
    Stop it!
[17:14] ---
    Stop it!
[17:16] ---
    Come on, stop it!
[17:40] ---
    Hey, I owe you big time for before.
[17:47] ---
    Payback time, you bastard!
[17:58] ---
    Looks like I made it this time.
[18:01] ---
    Evacuate with the others!
[18:03] ---
    You don't seem to understand
    how we were able to find you.
[18:07] ---
    You bastards...
[18:13] ---
    forgot something.
[18:17] ---
    We analyzed the RNA you left
    on that thing, specified it,
[18:22] ---
    and that got us permission to mobilize!
SIGN    RNA (RIBONUCLEIC ACID):
    Its basic components
    are the four nucleobases.
    Adenine, cytosine, guanine and uracil.
    It plays various roles in the process
    of generating protein within cells.
    Some viruses use RNA as genetic information.

[18:57] ---
    You think an attack like that would work?
[19:05] ---
    Take that!
[19:10] ---
    All of you, in one fell swoop, die!
[19:13] ---
    You miserable infected cells!
[19:24] ---
    Target sight—
[19:25] ---
    We're already done.
SIGN    RHINOVIRUS:
    The predominant cause of the common cold.
    Generally causes light rhinitis
    (runny nose, sneezing, stuffed-up nose.)
    The mucus and saliva of an infected person
    contains vast amounts of rhinovirus,
    making it highly contagious.
[19:33] ---
    The virus turned out to be a rhinovirus,
    a pathogen for the common cold.
[19:39] ---
    SNEEZE ONE
[19:48] ---
    Achoo!
[19:53] ---
    I'm so sorry, clone!
    Thank goodness you're all right!
[19:59] ---
    Jeez! Putting me to all that trouble!
[20:01] ---
    You moron!
[20:03] ---
    If you'd gotten infected,
    I would've annihilated you, as well!
[20:07] ---
    You just dodged a bullet!
[20:10] ---
    From now on, make sure you study up
    on both viruses and cells.
[20:15] ---
    Also, don't make trouble for everyone else!
[20:20] ---
    Yes.
[20:23] ---
    I'm sorry.
[20:25] ---
    A few days later.
[20:27] ---
    There! Get it!
[20:29] ---
    Hey! That's cheating!
    That's cheating, you know!
[20:35] ---
    Yay! Great shot!
[20:41] ---
    What the hell are you doing?
[20:44] ---
    Squad Leader!
[20:44] ---
    We had nothing to do, so...
[20:47] ---
    Wanna join us in a game?
[20:49] ---
    Wh-What?
[20:52] ---
    Um, since we're neighbors and all,
[20:54] ---
    I thought if we could all
    get along, and, uh...
[20:57] ---
    I-Idiot! We're assassins, remember?
[21:01] ---
    No fraternizing for us!
[21:04] ---
    I'm on the side that kills!
    You're on the side that gets killed!
[21:07] ---
    Proper restraint, and—
[21:08] ---
    Okay, okay. We've heard that
    a billion times, Squad Leader!
[21:13] ---
    Please don't be such a stiff!
[21:14] ---
    H-Hey, hold up! Hey, you!
[21:18] ---
    It's important to mingle, too!
[21:20] ---
    Let's go! Let's go!
[21:24] ---
    Damn. Just this once, got that, idiot?
[21:33] ---
    Oh my, what a monstrous home run!
[21:36] ---
    Squad Leader,
    we're not playing baseball.
[21:39] ---
    - Get it!
    - Do it! There it is!
[21:41] ---
    Do it! Do it!
[21:44] ---
    Why am I keeping score?
[21:48] ---
    Hey! That looks fun!
[21:50] ---
    Huh?
[21:51] ---
    Is this the Lymphatic Vessel?
