Names are handled on a best-effort basis depending on the info on the source file. Dialogue is left as is.) [00:01] ManA (Jim)     Do you have a plan to transport the goods? [00:03] manB     Yeah, no problems here. You? [00:06] ManA (Jim)     No problems here, either. [00:09] manB     You bastard! [00:11] ManA (Jim)     Well done. [01:44] [SONG] Sign     After the Shoplifter! [01:46] Kieshi     You know why we've summoned you... [01:50] Kieshi     The Drago Bureau found this along     with a corpse that was aboard [01:53] Kieshi     a smuggling ship headed     toward the solar system. [01:58] Laine     This mark... [02:02] Isaku     All right, done. [02:05] Chuta     Um... Dr. Isaac. [02:07] Chuta     Are the only items issued by ēlDLIVE [02:09] Chuta     this badge, handcuffs, and the uniform     that I'm eventually going to get? [02:14] Isaac     Should there be anything else? [02:16] Chuta     Like maybe a pistol or a police baton? [02:18] Isaac     Distributing those things would      just be a waste of time. [02:21] Isaac     Space criminals are     fighting with capabilities [02:24] Isaac     that Earth's science has yet      to even conceptualize. [02:27] Isaac     With a much more powerful     secret in life. [02:30] Isaac     The reason you were able to join ēlDLIVE     was because you were able to show [02:34] Isaac     a glimpse of that power     during the qualifying exam. [02:38] Chuta     We did? [02:39] Isaac     I was rather surprised myself.     That's a pretty remarkable thing. [02:44] Chuta     It is? [02:45] Dolugh     I feel confidence flowing out     of you right now, Chuta. [02:48] Chuta     Sh-Shut up. [02:50] Chuta     But what is that secret of life? [02:54] Isaac     It's body odor. [02:56] Isaac     The official term for it is SPH,      which is short for Space Pheromones. [03:01] Chuta     So the technique that Dolugh used     was actually a smell? [03:04] Isaac     SPH is a scent that cannot be     detected by Earthlings. [03:09] Chuta     Which means, [03:10] Chuta     when we had that escapee the other day,     the thing that Sonokata used [03:14] Chuta     was Misuzu Sonokata's scent? [03:16] Misuzu     Please refrain from having     any weird fantasies. [03:20] Isaac     Ah, Misuzu. [03:21] Misuzu     Is mine ready? [03:23] Isaac     Yours is the kit with the red capsules     on the upper right. [03:26] ---     Right. [03:28] Chuta     Huh? Are you sick, Sonokata? [03:30] Misuzu     No. It's medicine that allows me     to adapt to this environment. [03:35] Dolugh     Panties peekie-peek. Chuta's getting excited. [03:38] Chuta     Wh-What are you talking about?!     I didn't see any panties— [03:42] Misuzu     You pervert! [03:49] Chuta     P-Pass it to me! [03:52] Dolugh     You've become a bit more     assertive lately, Chuta. [03:55] Chuta     Huh? [03:57] Dolugh     A lot of people have been complimenting you,      so you've gained confidence. [04:00] Chuta     Y-You think so? [04:03] Tateyan     Chuta, it's heading your way! [04:09] Chuta     All right! [04:11] Chuta     Crap! [04:13] Dolugh     Sympathy! [04:21] Chuta     Dolugh?! [04:23] Chuta     Crap! Did they see you?! [04:24] StudentA     Nice goal! [04:26] StudentB     That was awesome, Chuta! I'm impressed. [04:29] Chuta     I-It was nothing... [04:36] Dolugh     You're in a really good mood, Chuta. [04:37] Chuta     Well, yeah. That was a super goal. [04:40] Dolugh     You're interacting with people      from your class like friends now. [04:44] Chuta     Yeah. I guess this is how it is      when you actually try to make friends. [04:48] Tome     Shoplifter! [04:49] Tome     Someone catch that gum thief! [04:53] Chuta     Hold it! [04:55] Chuta     Dolugh! Let's sew him up,     cloak and all! [04:57] Dolugh     Sewing him up! [05:01] Chuta     Huh? [05:02] Dolugh     It shattered? [05:07] Chuta     Auntie! [05:08] Chuta     Aunt Mimi! Wake up, Aunt Mimi! [05:26] Dolugh     Are you sure you don't need to be     looking after Mimi, Chuta? [05:29] Chuta     This is all my fault again. [05:32] Chuta     It's better if I don't do anything after all. [05:36] Dolugh     Chuta... [05:38] Chuta     Dolugh! Your body! [05:41] Dolugh     Anytime you're negative     about yourself, Chuta, [05:43] Dolugh     you end up denying my existence,     and my body becomes faint. [05:49] Misuzu     Using your SPH powers in your     everyday life on Earth [05:53] Misuzu     is a violation of ēlDLIVE regulations. [05:56] Chuta     Sonokata... [05:57] Misuzu     Powers not of Earth are that dangerous. [06:02] Chuta     I get it already. [06:03] Misuzu     No. You only understand     about thirty percent of it. [06:08] Misuzu     I took care of this instance.     However, you will face punishment next time. [06:37] Dolugh     This is the depressed cooking that     you do when you're depressed, Chuta. [06:42] Chuta     Maybe I'll quit ēlDLIVE... [06:45] Dolugh     Why? You've been slowly regaining confidence     ever since you joined ēlDLIVE, Chuta. [06:51] Chuta     Confidence... That's exactly     why Aunt Mimi got hurt. [06:57] Chuta     If I hadn't gotten involved... [07:06] Chuta     And after I'd decided I wouldn't anymore... [07:08] Chuta     I wouldn't get involved... [07:11] Dolugh     Chuta! Chuta! [07:13] Dolugh     Aren't you making way too much? [07:18] Nurse     You brought food? [07:18] Caster     Next week, with the theme of "school regulations,"     we'll follow a public morals committee chairman [07:19] Nurse     It's still visiting hours,     so you can take it up to her room. [07:23] Caster     who keeps a middle school in check     in a rather unique way. [07:23] Chuta     No... Actually, if you'd     just take this to her. [07:26] Caster     Look forward to it. [07:26] Mimi     Chuta? [07:29] Mimi     You came! [07:32] Mimi     To think that one of the shop's pillars     would collapse from being so old. [07:35] Chuta     Huh? Her memory's been altered... [07:39] Mimi     But thank goodness that     it barely missed me! [07:43] Chuta     No, Auntie. [07:45] Chuta     The truth is that I— [07:48] Mimi     What's the matter, Chuta? [07:52] Chuta     It would have been better [07:53] Chuta     if I'd been the one that got hurt,     not you, Auntie. [07:57] Mimi     What are you talking about, Chuta? [07:59] Chuta     Huh? Well, I mean, you've got work... [08:02] Mimi     If you got hurt, I wouldn't be     able to make delicious muffins! [08:07] Mimi     It's only because you keep growing     every day and come home to me safe [08:12] Mimi     that I'm even able to work hard! [08:14] Mimi     When you're doing well,     I'm doing well, too. [08:18] Chuta     I-I'm sorry... [08:22] Mimi     I'm ridiculous... I was just     brought to tears by my own words... [08:26] Chuta     Auntie... [08:28] Mimi     But you seem to be more cheerful     lately, so that's made me happy. [08:38] Dolugh     Mimi recognized the changes in you, Chuta. [08:41] Chuta     Yeah. [08:43] Chuta     Auntie cares for me that much...     I need to shape up more. [08:51] Chuta     So that I can protect     Auntie and her muffins. [08:56] Dolugh     I'm becoming more visible again. [09:00] Chips     I found you, chu. [09:03] Chuta     Sonokata... [09:04] Misuzu     It's time for our shift. [09:07] All     Yoyosa! [09:09] Laine     Good work. [09:10] Laine     Until Section Chief Madigan returns, [09:12] Laine     I will continue to command     all of you in Division 2. [09:16] Chuta     Yes, sir. [09:17] Laine     However, there really aren't any jobs that     you guys can do at your level right now. [09:23] Laine     Go study for school, or something. [09:25] Chuta     Huh? [09:27] Chips     Looks like we've got some time, chu. [09:29] Chips     And I thought we were going to actually     work on that one case, chu. [09:32] Chuta     That one case? [09:34] Misuzu     You haven't heard? [09:36] Misuzu     Apparently, the gum thief that showed up     in the shopping district was an alien. [09:39] Chuta     Huh? [09:44] Chuta     Then why don't we catch the shoplifter? [09:48] Misuzu     You seem rather forward     suddenly. Why is that? [09:51] Chuta     Why? [09:53] Chuta     At this rate, my Auntie won't be     able to run her shop in peace. [09:57] Chips     You shouldn't do that, chu. [09:58] Chips     Don't mix your personal feelings      into an investigation, chu. [10:00] Chuta     Oh... I see. [10:03] Misuzu     I think it's all right this time. [10:05] Chuta     Sonokata... [10:06] Misuzu     We're not receiving assignments because     Officer Kokonose's level is too low. [10:10] Misuzu     He can do his own investigation and level up, [10:13] Misuzu     or die without leaving a trace.     Either would work in our favor. [10:15] Chuta     Wha— [10:18] Chuta     Never mind! I'll just do it myself! [10:21] Misuzu     Go right ahead. [10:24] Chuta     I said that, but where am I      even supposed to start? [10:29] Dolugh     Chuta? How did ēlDLIVE find out      the suspect was an alien? [10:33] Chuta     Why? It's probably because aliens and     Earthlings are different in some way.... [10:39] Chuta     Oh, yeah! It must be SPH! [10:44] Chuta     Um, pardon me. [10:49] Melies     You saw it, didn't you? [10:52] Melies     This unsightly form! [10:56] Chuta     So the moon guy has arms! [10:59] Melies     You're precisely the 50,000th     person to see my arms! [11:05] Dolugh     That's quite a lot. [11:07] Melies     What do you want? [11:08] Chuta     Um... I wanted to catch a shoplifting alien, [11:12] Chuta     so I was wondering if their     SPH records were here... [11:15] Melies     You're running your own investigation?     You've got some nerve! [11:18] Chuta     U-Um, could you help me out? [11:22] Melies     Hmm... I don't have much of a choice,     since you saw my arms. [11:26] Melies     Only on the condition     that you won't tell the others. [11:29] Chuta     Thank you... [11:32] Melies     SPH is unique to every individual,     just like Earthlings' fingerprints. [11:37] Melies     No two are alike. [11:39] Chuta     Huh... [11:39] Melies     And so, we'll search for     any SPH that was recorded [11:42] Melies     near your house     at the time of the shoplifting, [11:44] Melies     and then compare it with this data... Hm? [11:49] Melies     We got a hit! That's him! [11:51] Melies     Hey. Are you sure he's just a shoplifter? [11:56] Chuta     What's wrong? [11:58] Melies     He's... SIGN    Laine Brick [12:12] Chuta     Chief Laine. [12:15] Chuta     The shoplifter that was in my neighborhood     is an alien and a murderer! [12:20] Laine     Who did you hear that from? [12:22] Chuta     Um... [12:24] Misuzu     I spotted Officer Kokonose going into     the SPH research office earlier. [12:29] Tonto     I'm surprised that Méliès helped you. [12:32] Laine     Hey, now. I told you to go study, didn't I? [12:37] Laine     We're in the middle of investigating     that case right now. [12:40] Chuta     Um, would it be possible     for me to participate, as well? [12:44] Laine     Why do you want to go that far? [12:47] Chuta     Well... Because at this rate, my Auntie... [12:50] Dolugh     Chuta! You were told not to     involve your personal feelings! [12:54] Chuta     Right... [12:55] Chuta     Um... If we let a dangerous     criminal run free, [12:59] Chuta     people wouldn't be able to continue     to live their lives in peace. [13:03] Chuta     Getting innocent people involved in this [13:06] Chuta     is as tragic as when the rice for      your curry turns out all mushy. [13:13] Harry     Curry? [13:17] Chuta     Huh? Huh? [13:19] Laine     Very well. [13:20] Laine     Go catch him! [13:22] Dolugh     You did it, Chuta. [13:24] Tonto     Are you sure about this? [13:25] Tonto     I thought that you were marking     that criminal, Chief. [13:29] Riggs     The Chief is doing stuff on a whim again. [13:34] Laine     The suspect is the Gumshoe Alien Jim. [13:37] Laine     He's wanted on charges     of larceny and murder on Earth. [13:40] Laine     Judging from the crime scene, [13:42] Laine     while trying to illegally     transport resources from Earth, [13:44] Laine     he apparently got in an     argument with his partner. [13:47] Chuta     What was the resource he stole? [13:49] Laine     Bubblegum. [13:51] Chuta     Bubblegum? [13:53] Laine     The physical properties of a Gumshoe Alien     are very similar to gum, [13:57] Laine     and gum itself can be used as a     powerful, high-quality tonic. [14:01] Chuta     He killed someone over gum? [14:03] Laine     They don't have gum on the Gumshoe Planet. [14:06] Laine     When things are in short supply, [14:09] Laine     people who would be willing to crush     another life to get them start to appear. [14:14] Misuzu     Is that the only clue we have? [14:16] Laine     No, there's one more. [14:20] Chips     You mean the yellow truck, chu? [14:22] Laine     He probably acquired it in order     to load the gum he stole and get away. [14:29] Melies     The suspect's SPH is weak.     I can't find his location. [14:32] Dolugh     So he usually hits the keys with his chin... [14:34] Misuzu     We can't locate him on the     satellite cameras, either. [14:37] Chuta     Wouldn't a yellow truck like this     actually stand out quite a bit? [14:41] Dolugh     Chuta, I see something in the windshield. [14:44] Chuta     Huh? [14:46] Chuta     Is that Mount Fuji? [14:50] Melies     Analyzing the angles of Mount Fuji     reflecting in the windshield and the sunlight. [14:53] Melies     I'll narrow down the possible locations. [14:56] Melies     Bingo! The Tomei Highway! [14:59] Chuta     Ow... [15:01] Chips     He messed up again, chu. [15:03] Chuta     Where's the yellow truck? [15:06] Chuta     It doesn't look like it's     parked around here. [15:09] Chuta     H-Hey! [15:11] Misuzu     I would like you to stand by here.     You can even sit out if you'd like. [15:16] Chuta     What?! [15:18] Misuzu     If you'll excuse me. [15:21] Dolugh     Chuta, I smell gum. It's coming     from the thicket over there. [15:26] Chuta     Well, they sell gum around here, too. [15:29] Dolugh     No, this smell is Snap Snap gum. [15:32] Chuta     They only sell Snap Snap gum at     old candy shops... Oh, yeah! [15:38] Chuta     This is ēlDLIVE! [15:40] Chuta     Gumshoe Alien, surrender and come out! [15:44] Chuta     But how is a truck in a place like this? [15:48] Chuta     Ow... [15:51] Chuta     What the? [15:52] Jim     So you finally showed up, ēlDLIVE. [15:54] Dolugh     Chuta, it's the yellow truck! [15:54] Jim     Like hell I'm going to let you     catch me! Don't mess with me! [15:56] Chuta     Which means this puny alien is the suspect! [16:00] Jim     You're from that one time! [16:02] Jim     Because you opened a hole in my body,     I couldn't get big anymore! [16:07] Jim     I'm gonna kill you next time! [16:09] Jim     Hey! Hey! Hey! [16:10] Chuta     Who would've thought it'd     be an alien this size? [16:13] Chuta     This is the Space Police ēlDLIVE! [16:15] Chuta     Don't even try to struggle     and come peacefully... [16:18] Chuta     Ow! [16:20] Chuta     Y-You... Ow! [16:21] Jim     Don't mess with me! [16:21] Chuta     Have the right to remain si— [16:22] Chuta     Why, you! [16:27] Jim     Is that all you've got, ēlDLIVE? [16:30] Chuta     What is... [16:32] Misuzu     That's SPH. [16:34] Chuta     Sonokata... [16:36] Misuzu     Normal physical attacks     will not work against SPH. [16:43] Chuta     SPH... [16:45] Chuta     Sonokata's secretions... [16:47] Misuzu     Your way of expressing that     is extremely unpleasant. [16:49] Chuta     Er... uh... [16:51] Dolugh     Chuta! The suspect's gone. SIGN    Fluffy Snap [16:54] Chuta     No... [16:55] Chips     He couldn't have gotten far, chu. [16:59] Jim     You fool! You let your guard down! [17:01] Chuta     Sonokata! [17:02] Chips     Misuzu! [17:04] Jim     That's what you get! I'm just gonna     finish her off like this. [17:08] Chips     This isn't good, chu! [17:09] Chips     His SPH is powerfully sticking to her,      and I can't attack, chu! [17:12] Dolugh     Misuzu's going to be suffocated, Chuta! [17:15] Chuta     You say that, but... [17:18] Chuta     No! Sonokata! [17:19] Chips     How dare you do that, you piece of gum?! [17:22] Chuta     What should I do? [17:26] Dolugh     Chuta! Do you remember     what happened when there was gum [17:28] Dolugh     on Mimi's clothes and it wouldn't come off? [17:33] Dolugh     If we use that here, it'll work. [17:36] Chuta     Can you do it? [17:37] Dolugh     If you can imagine the same thing, yes. [17:40] Chuta     All right, let's do it! [17:43] (Flashback) Chuta     When that happens, you should use this. [17:47] Dolugh     Sympathy! [17:49] Chuta     Space Pheromone! Freezing gum off! [17:54] Jim     Wha... I-It's cold...     My body's getting harder... [18:02] Chuta     Sonokata! [18:02] Chips     Misuzu! [18:05] Misuzu     I'm fine. [18:07] Chuta     Thank goodness. [18:09] Misuzu     I thank you for saving me. [18:12] Misuzu     But this doesn't mean     that I've accepted you. [18:15] Chuta     Wh-What the heck? [18:17] Chips     This time, you're under     arrest for sure, chu. [18:20] Jim     I-I'm going to be killed... [18:22] Chips     I'm not going to kill you, chu. [18:24] Jim     No! No, no! I'm gonna get killed— [18:28] Chips     This isn't good, chu! [18:29] Misuzu     Take cover! [18:33] Riggs     There's a large SPH signal. [18:40] Dolugh     That's a nice smell. [18:45] Chuta     S-So close! [18:50] Misuzu     I've repaid my debt to you. [18:52] Misuzu     Please do not hold the fact that     you saved me against me anymore. [18:55] Chuta     L-Like I would do that! [18:57] Chips     Both of you! Look over there, chu! [19:02] Misuzu     That's... [19:05] Riggs     So that mark was... [19:07] Laine     Yeah. [19:08] Laine     He was killed as a warning to others. [19:13] Laine     The giant criminal organization     that commits [19:16] Laine     all kinds of heinous crimes across this galaxy... [19:18] Laine     DeMille. [19:20] Chuta     DeMille? [19:21] Laine     Long ago, another blue, Earth-like planet     20,000 light years away [19:26] Laine     ended up like this because of them. [19:29] Chuta     Something that dangerous     is heading to Earth? [19:36] Chuta     Auntie, I brought you a change of clothes,     since you're being discharged. [19:40] Tateyan     Yo. [19:40] Chuta     Tateyan! Why are you... [19:43] Tateyan     The lady from the candy shop told me. [19:45] Mimi     He brought me some rice crackers     as a get well gift. [19:48] Chuta     Th-Thanks. [19:52] Tateyan     Do people tell your aunt that she     looks like the idol Yui Sakuraebi? [19:56] Chuta     I don't think so... [19:59] Tateyan     I see. [20:00] Tateyan     By the way, Chuta, I had a dream     the other day where I think you saved me. [20:06] Chuta     A dream? [20:08] Dolugh     ēlDLIVE must've changed his memories. [20:11] Chuta     If you thought it was a dream,     it probably was. [20:16] Tateyan     I see. It must've been a dream.     You're so deep, Chuta. [20:20] Dolugh     And you're dense, Tateyan. [20:22] Chuta     Shh! [20:23] Tateyan     But thanks anyway. I wanted to tell     you that, even if it was a dream. [20:28] Dolugh     This feeling... You're starting     to accept yourself more, Chuta. [20:32] Chuta     You don't need to comment on it every time! [20:36] Chuta     A-Auntie! [20:40] Mimi     Chuta finally made a friend! [20:43] Chuta     You're overreacting, Auntie! [20:44] Dolugh     She's not, though. [20:48] Dolugh     Ever since that incident,     up until you joined ēlDLIVE recently, [20:52] Dolugh     you haven't had any friends, Chuta. [20:54] Chuta     That's right... I'd forgotten. [20:59] Chuta     This is what having friends is like. [21:03] Chuta     I think I've started realizing     a lot of things lately. [21:08] Chuta     About my family, the people     around me, as well as myself.... [21:13] Chuta     Considering all that, maybe there was     a purpose to me joining ēlDLIVE. [21:20] Laine     You look all official now. [21:22] Tonto     It looks pretty good on you. [21:24] Dolugh     I like it! It's a very unique outfit, Chuta. [21:28] Misuzu     Please don't come to school wearing that. [21:31] Chuta     I know that! [21:32] Laine     All right, let's have an     entrance ceremony for Chuta. [21:35] All     Yoyosa!
