[00:01] Chelsea
    So, like, we're racing the hell away
    from our enemy, Stanley Snyder,
[00:05] Chelsea
    as we're getting our hands on rubber trees?
[00:11] Chelsea
    Fun! I'll take care of it!
[00:14] Chelsea
    I know some places we can look in this area!
[00:19] Senku
    We'll use it to craft some bikes
    and rip through South America!
SIGN    The Escape
[02:02] Chelsea
    We're here right now.
[02:03] Chelsea
    I'll show us around some good spots for
    rubber hunting in the waters around Panama!
[02:07] Suika
    B-But if we spend so much
    time gathering rubber...
[02:10] Luna
    Stanley will catch up to
    us in no time, won't he?
[02:13] Luna
    Not that I'm afraid, of course.
[02:16] Chelsea
    That's the thing, isn't it?
[02:18] Chelsea
    It's a real pickle.
[02:21] Max
    You don't know how
    dangerous Stanley is, do you?
[02:24] Max
    Not if you haven't seen Senku getting sniped.
[02:28] Carlos
    The moment this boat is close enough for
    their plane to reach us from the carrier,
[02:33] Carlos
    we're screwed!
[02:37] Senku
    Yeah, I bet.
[02:40] Ryusui
    They have no reason to keep us alive,
    now that they know the revival fluid recipe.
[02:46] Taiju
    Come on, Ukyo!
[02:47] Taiju
    Is there any way we can lose Stanley's ship?
[02:50] Taiju
    Like... aren't there any radar
    operator battle tactics you can use?
[02:54] Ukyo
    No. I'd basically be transmitting our position
    if I were to send out any kind of radio signal.
[02:59] Ukyo
    All I can gather with my ears is that the
    enemy radar operator is a true elite.
[03:05] Ukyo
    They won't miss a single enemy blip.
[03:07] Ukyo
    They're on us like a hawk,
    even when they're matching our speed.
[03:11] Ukyo
    Won't miss a blip?
[03:14] Chelsea
    If only we had the Panama Canal...
[03:17] Chrome
    The Banana Poop Bowl?
[03:18] Francois
    Allow me to explain.

[03:22] Francois
    Welcome to Francois's Geography Lessons.
[03:26] Francois
    You can imagine how difficult it would be to
    have to cross to the other ocean like this.
[03:33] Chrome
    That would be insane.
[03:35] Francois
    So, in the early 20th century,
[03:38] Francois
    humanity chopped this
    narrow part of the continent
[03:42] Francois
    and connected the two
    oceans with a waterway.
[03:45] Francois
    That's the Panama Canal.
[03:47] Francois
    That concludes my explanation.

    Fin
[03:53] Chrome
    Are you serious?!
[03:54] Chrome
    Scientific civilization
    has the most insane ideas!
[03:57] Chelsea
    We just need to go through there and
    come out the other side, and we win!
[04:01] Chelsea
    There's no way they're making it through a
    beat-up old canal with their big-ass ship.
[04:06] Taiju
    All right! So we're headed
    to this Banana, er... Canal?!
[04:11] Chelsea
    Too bad, though.
[04:12] Chelsea
    It's been thousands of years. It's almost
    certainly completely buried by now.
[04:17] Senku
    That's it!
[04:19] Ryusui
    We're splitting up into two teams:
    one heading for the rubber trees,
[04:22] Ryusui
    and the other for the Panama Canal!
[04:25] Kohaku
    At sea?! How?
[04:29] Gen
    So the Panama Canal team is a decoy.
[04:31] Ukyo
    Yeah. Let's put up lots of decorations
    and make our surface area convincing
[04:35] Ukyo
    so that the enemy radar
    operator can find us easier.
[04:38] Ukyo
    The enemy radar operator won't miss a beat.
[04:41] Ukyo
    He's going to catch us, even if we're a decoy.
[04:44] Ukyo
    We'll use that to our advantage.
[04:46] Kohaku
    But this so-called Panama Canal
    is covered up, isn't it?
[04:49] Senku
    Not ten billion percent for
    certain, but just about.
[04:53] Suika
    But then we'll get stuck
    and gunned down by Stanley.
[04:57] Senku
    Yeah.
[04:59] Senku
    We'll have the decoy headed for
    the Panama Canal shot and killed.
[05:04] Kohaku
    No. I won't stand for such a plan!
[05:07] Ukyo
    We have no choice.
    That's the best course of action.
[05:10] Kaseki
    Are you sure, Ukyo?
[05:12] Kaseki
    You, of all people,
    would normally be against it.
[05:15] Kaseki
    How could you say that?
[05:19] Senku
    It's goodbye forever, here and now.
[05:24] Chrome
    With who?
[05:31] Kaseki
    My lab car!
SIGN    Auto Pilot
[05:39] Kaseki
    My dear, my precious!
[05:42] Kaseki
    Senku! We made that together!
[05:45] Kaseki
    Don't you adore it?!
[05:47] Senku
    Dude, the shell is just a machine.
[05:49] Senku
    We gutted the lab from the inside.
[05:51] Kaseki
    Still! You're too emotionless
    about this! Jeez!
SIGN    Votes that the lab car
    was a friend
SIGN    Votes that the lab car
    was just a machine
[05:59] Chelsea
    I guess even the Japanese crew are split.
[06:07] Leonard
    The Youth Science Team's ship's
    signature has split into two.
[06:10] Leonard
    One is headed toward the Panama Canal.
[06:13] Maya
    The Panama Canal? That's still around?
[06:16] Charlotte
    There's no way anyone could know.
[06:18] Charlotte
    But if it's still there, they'll go
    through it, and we'll be screwed!
[06:23] Gen
    Uh-huh.
[06:25] Gen
    So the fruit of old human ingenuity, the
    Panama Canal, is forcing you to go after them,
[06:29] Gen
    even if we know it's a decoy.
[06:32] Gen
    You get it, don't you, Stanley-chan?
[06:36] Stanley
    You have no shortage of clever tricks, do you?
[07:09] Senku
    This is it!
[07:13] Luna
    It looks like an ordinary tree.
[07:15] Luna
    This is the rubber we're after?
[07:20] Senku
    We put a cut in the rubber tree
    and collect as much sap as we can.
[07:26] Kaseki
    Hey, it's the same way we collected lacquer.
[07:31] Kohaku
    Looks like a job for an Ishigami Village native.
[07:34] Suika
    I've done this before!
[07:52] Xeno
    You're sure?
[07:54] Xeno
    Do you really want to give your
    hostage a potential weapon?
[07:57] Gen
    You're a super science man, Xeno-chan.
[08:00] Gen
    Why not help us make rubber?
[08:03] Gen
    I mean, if our vehicles don't work out,
    you're gonna die with us anyway.
[08:08] Gen
    Besides, you're no different from Senku-chan.
[08:11] Gen
    You're absolutely honest
    when it comes to science.
[08:15] Gen
    Right?
[08:20] Gen
    I'm not letting you near
    the communicator, though.
[08:24] Xeno
    Oh, what a pity.
[08:26] Xeno
    It seems you aren't such a trusting fool.
[08:40] Luna
    This is that sap we gathered?
[08:43] Luna
    It's so jiggly, like Bavarian cream.
[08:45] Senku
    Knead the crap out of it with sulfur
    powder and vinegar to harden it...
[08:56] Suika
    It's so bouncy!

[09:07] Kaseki
    It stretches so much!
[09:09] Kaseki
    Like, boing!
[09:13] Gen
    Everyone from the 21st century
    knows exactly what's coming next.
[09:21] Gen
    I knew it!
[09:24] Kaseki
    Chrome... Sowwy!
[09:26] Chrome
    Rubber's awesome!
[09:28] Chrome
    It's so fun!
[09:30] Chrome
    It's just tree juice, and it stretches
    and squashes like a spring!
[09:34] Kohaku
    Uh-huh.
[09:35] Kohaku
    It's an amusing material indeed, but it seems
    too soft to be useful for any kind of crafting.
[09:40] Kohaku
    What is it good for,
    other than to entertain ourselves?
[09:42] Luna; Chelsea
    Whoa!
[09:44] Senku
    Yeah, you're right.
[09:45] Senku
    Without scientific processing techniques,
[09:47] Senku
    the godly material that is
    rubber is just a fun toy.
[09:51] Senku
    In fact, it was neglected for 200 years
    after Columbus brought it back.
[10:00] Senku
    We're processing it, Taiju.
[10:01] Senku
    And you're in charge of the heavy lifting.
[10:06] Taiju
    I haven't heard that in a while now!
[10:11] Luna
    It turned into black rubber.
[10:13] Senku
    Warm up some rubber with sulfur
    and carbon powder in a boiler,
[10:17] Senku
    then use Taiju's power to stretch
    it out until it's all floppy.
[10:20] Senku
    And then...
[10:22] Senku
    Stamp it!
[10:31] Suika
    It's making perfect ridges!
[10:34] Taiju
    It's starting to look like the real thing!
[10:37] Xeno
    You're making the inflatable rubber
    parts separately, I presume.
[10:41] Suika
    Obviously.
[10:44] Kohaku
    Hey, Xeno, you're being mighty
    cooperative for an enemy.
[10:49] Xeno
    For my own safety.
[10:51] Xeno
    I don't care if the Youth Science Team
    destroys itself with shoddy science,
[10:56] Xeno
    but I can't allow myself to go down with you.
[10:58] Xeno
    Of course, with Senku at the helm,
    I have nothing to worry about.
[11:07] Suika
    It's all bumpy now.
[11:11] Senku
    Now we put them into round molds,
    along with wire and cloth.
[11:17] Senku
    Heat them, then cool them,
    and we have tire casings.
[11:22] Senku
    Then we make rubber tubes to inflate them
    from the inside and fasten them using wire.
[11:31] Taiju
    Now I just need to pump it
    up with my breath and grit!
[11:36] Senku
    What? Just use a tire pump.

[11:42] Senku
    Yeah.
[11:43] Senku
    It's the next-level leg of science,
    with which we'll bomb through the fields.
[11:59] Kohaku
    So this is rubber!
[12:01] Kohaku
    It's way faster and comfier than bamboo wheels!
[12:06] Ryusui
    We ought to be able to
    take these tires off-road.
[12:09] Senku
    Now we just need bike bodies.
[12:11] Senku
    We're running out of time.
[12:13] Gen
    We never have enough time, do we?
SIGN    Ka-blow
[12:21] Max; Carlos
    What the hell, you old fart?!
[12:23] Max; Carlos
    Why are you wrecking the ship?!
[12:25] Kaseki
    I'm just borrowing some parts.
[12:28] Senku
    We only have time while we're on the ship.
[12:30] Senku
    We're crafting along the way.
[12:33] Ryusui
    No telling how many days the
    lab car decoy is going to buy us.
[12:42] Leonard
    Four kilometers to the enemy ship.
[12:44] Leonard
    We're within visible distance.
[12:54] Stanley
    The way it moves...
[12:57] Stanley
    It's an unmanned decoy.
[13:06] Charlotte
    No one's coming out.
[13:08] Leonard
    The real ship is the one that went south.
[13:12] Stanley
    Reverse course.
[13:13] Stanley
    Full speed ahead!
[13:18] Chelsea
    We made it!
[13:20] Chelsea
    We're here in Ecuador.
[13:22] Chelsea
    This is where we get off!
[13:28] Chelsea
    Yikes, this is bad.
[13:31] Chelsea
    The desert came all the way out here?!
[13:33] Chelsea
    Thousands of years is no joke!
[13:35] Hyoga
    I'd say this makes it easier for us to ride.
[13:39] Hyoga
    Though we won't have any cover along the way.
[13:45] Suika
    W-We're breaking it all apart?!
[13:48] Senku
    Yup.
[13:49] Senku
    We aren't using this ship anymore.
[13:52] Luna
    We're really rebuilding all our vehicles
    as we cross South America, huh?
[13:57] Ryusui
    Dismantle all the wooden parts!
[13:59] Ryusui
    We'll burn them for fuel!
[14:01] Carlos
    The wood?
[14:02] Gen
    Fuel?
[14:03] Carlos
    Our bikes are fueled by wood?!
[14:06] Chelsea
    Holy smokes, that's awesome!
[14:08] Xeno
    To be precise, we're burning the
    wood and using the gas as fuel.
[14:12] Senku
    We're making one boss bike and five mini bikes.
[14:17] Senku
    We'll burn wood with the boiler
    we take aboard the boss bike
[14:19] Senku
    and stuff the charcoal gas in canisters.
[14:23] Senku
    Then we slam the canisters into
    the engines of the mini bikes.
[14:27] Chrome
    Hold it, hold it, hold it!
[14:29] Chrome
    The boiler's one thing,
    since it's just an oven...
[14:32] Chrome
    But six engines?!
[14:33] Chrome
    It's gonna take forever to make all that!
[14:35] Chrome
    Stanley's on his way.
    What are we going to do?
[14:41] Xeno
    Six engines... Charcoal gas...
[14:44] Taiju
    Got the boiler!
[14:45] Kaseki
    Got six engines!
[14:50] Gen
    So that's why we have six bikes.
[14:54] Ukyo
    Guys!
[14:55] Ukyo
    The lab car's been gunned down.
[14:58] Ukyo
    I can tell from the radar
    coming out of Stanley's ship.
[15:01] Ukyo
    It's reversed course.
[15:02] Ukyo
    It's on its way here at full speed!
[15:06] Ryusui
    The time limit is near.
[15:08] Ryusui
    We're going to be working day
    and night for days on end!
[15:10] Ryusui
    Fire up your desire for the finished product!
[15:51] Suika
    They're here!
[15:53] Suika
    It's Stanley's ship!
[16:06] Ginro
    They're going to kill Senku and everyone else!
[16:09] Xeno Soldier A
    Surround them once you're ashore.
[16:11] Xeno Soldier B
    Capture every last one!
[16:15] Ginro
    Run, everyone!
[16:51] Charlotte
    Bikes?!
[16:52] Xeno Soldier A
    Where did they get those?!
[16:54] Maya
    Did they make them during their voyage?!
[16:58] Chrome
    Bikes are badass!
[16:59] Chrome
    Why does it feel so good?!
[17:02] Taiju
    Have we escaped Stanley's net?
[17:05] Kohaku
    Not yet.
[17:06] Kohaku
    We've only escaped the first net—
    their demand to hold up!
[17:10] Tsukasa
    Yup.
[17:11] Tsukasa
    Their next net, long-range
    focused fire, is on its way.
[17:15] Senku
    But if we can bust through here,
[17:19] Senku
    we'll be on our way to the source
    of the petrification beam!
[17:24] Soldier A
    Fire!
[17:29] Xeno
    Don't you want to use me as a shield?
[17:33] Hyoga
    Of course I do.
[17:36] Chelsea
    You're merciless!
[17:38] Gen
    Hyoga-chan's about the only one here who could
    do that kind of thing without any hesitation.
[17:42] Hyoga
    It's odd, though...
[17:44] Hyoga
    Xeno-kun is rather proper. Why would
    he deliberately put himself in danger?
[17:51] Hyoga
    It's almost as though he
    wants to be at the rear.
[17:54] Ryusui
    Carlos, apologies for the
    distasteful question...
[17:56] Ryusui
    You were a driver before, weren't you?
[17:59] Ryusui
    How about we put up a smokescreen together?
[18:01] Carlos
    You bet!
[18:02] Carlos
    I'm not a pro for nothing!
[18:16] Charlotte
    Hold it, idiot!
[18:17] Charlotte
    You're going to hit Xeno!
[18:20] Suika
    They can't see anything now.
[18:23] Taiju
    All right!
[18:25] Taiju
    We've made it past the second net!
[18:27] Suika
    We made it!
[18:33] Kohaku
    They're coming!
[18:34] Ryusui
    Form up single file in front of Xeno!
[18:37] Tsukasa
    They're aiming for a head shot!
[18:38] Tsukasa
    Everyone, lower your heads!
[18:40] Gen
    Head shot?!
[18:42] Gen
    But they can't see us!
[19:04] Taiju
    They're hit!
[19:05] Taiju
    Tsukasa and Hyoga!
[19:07] Hyoga
    Not a problem.
[19:10] Hyoga
    It isn't fatal.
[19:13] Kohaku
    Shoot at the bikes in the dust,
    and Xeno will get shot in the fray.
[19:18] Kohaku
    Which means his best move is
    to take out our main forces.
[19:22] Kohaku
    He quickly chose the cards to clear
    and shot Tsukasa's and Hyoga's arms.
[19:33] Stanley
    Xeno will leave us with some hints to go by.
[19:39] Stanley
    No matter the situation.
[19:41] Stanley
    That's the kind of man he is.
[19:45] Stanley
    Morse code.
[19:46] Stanley
    With his eyelids.
[19:47] Stanley
    Take notes.
[20:00] Ukyo
    Engine noise!
[20:01] Ukyo
    They're about to launch their fighter planes!
[20:04] Ryusui
    So their third and most devastating net
    is to fire at us from the fighter plane.
[20:09] Suika
    Th-Th-There's no way we're escaping that!
[20:13] Senku
    Nope.
[20:15] Senku
    If they're in the air over the desert,
    there's absolutely no way we survive.
[20:21] Senku
    If they're in the air.
[20:29] Luna
    It's coming!
[20:34] Leonard
    What happened?!
[20:35] Pilot
    I don't know!
[20:36] Pilot
    The engine gave out for no reason!
[20:45] Ryusui
    There it goes, finally!
[20:47] Ryusui
    The time bomb of science!
[20:49] Senku
    Yeah, we rigged it when we got downed in
    the dogfight and escaped from the plane.
[20:56] Senku
    What kind of idiot would leave a weapon
    behind for the enemy to take?
[21:03] Senku
    I filled it up nicely with
    a gift of sugar water.
SIGN    Sugar Water
[21:09] Carlos
    I've heard of that before!
[21:11] Carlos
    When you put sugar water in gasoline...
[21:15] Senku
    The cool part is that it still runs at first,
    so they won't notice during checks.
[21:19] Senku
    By the time they realize it,
    the sugar's turned into carbon sludge.
[21:24] Senku
    Any primitive engine will
    burn up, and it's game over.
[21:52] Chrome
    Yeah! We busted through all three nets!
[21:59] Ryusui
    We're biking all the way across South America!
[22:07] Senku
    Yeah. We're headed straight there.
[22:11] Senku
    To the holy land of petrification!
