[00:02] ---
    Dense predawn fog.
[00:10] ---
    Dead calm again today.
[00:22] ---
    I get up as usual.
[00:36] ---
    I take an hour to get dressed and ready.
[00:45] ---
    In the morning I go outside with
    the Entourage to assess the situation.
[00:56] ---
    I confirm there's nothing
    anywhere in sight.
[01:04] ---
    I check our supplies
    to see how much we have left.
[01:10] ---
    We need to find a way out of this.
[01:36] ---
    Re-l...
[01:38] ---
    Vincent.
[01:43] ---
    Vincent!
[03:40] ---
    Another 2,000 miles to Mosk.
[03:43] ---
    The calm continues since arriving here.
[03:46] ---
    The only thing stirring is my impatience.
[03:57] ---
    And then there are the Proxies
    which remain a mystery...
[04:00] ---
    far from being solved and only
    continues to deepen.
[04:04] ---
    I can't tell anymore.
[04:07] ---
    How much do they control?
[04:10] ---
    And the most mysterious thing of all is
[04:14] ---
    now lying there right in front of me.
[04:19] ---
    Dead Calm
[04:33] ---
    Good morning.
[04:52] ---
    Throughout the day I observe
    the Proxy's mode of life.
[05:16] ---
    It's pathetic.
[05:19] ---
    Is leaving the toilet seat up the
    only way he can assert his maleness?
[05:25] ---
    Vincent!
[05:27] ---
    Did you hear me?
[05:29] ---
    How many times do I have to tell
    you to lower the toilet seat?
[05:32] ---
    I heard you.
[05:33] ---
    No, you didn't!
[05:38] ---
    Since I have the time,
    I observe the infected AutoReiv.
[06:02] ---
    I see.
[06:14] ---
    Life is often likened to a journey.
[06:16] ---
    A pinch of salt?
[06:18] ---
    That's awfully vague, isn't it?
[06:21] ---
    Yet another discovery
    in this strange world.
[06:29] ---
    Sometimes there are surprises.
[06:31] ---
    Forget it!
[06:36] ---
    No!
[06:38] ---
    When did that happen?!
[06:41] ---
    While preparing lunch,
[06:43] ---
    I verify another facet of the cogito virus.
[06:47] ---
    Are you left-handed too?
[06:49] ---
    Left my hand?
[07:06] ---
    AutoReivs aren't designed to
    favor one hand over the other.
[07:09] ---
    Could her left-handedness be due to
    the emergence of an independent spirit?
[07:14] ---
    Does it taste good, lady?
[07:17] ---
    It's tough.
[07:23] ---
    I'll settle the question of the
    AutoReiv's handedness later.
[07:28] ---
    After thinking it over, I realize
    it's not so much Proxies...
[07:33] ---
    but Vincent Law that
    I don't know anything about.
[07:40] ---
    What?
[07:42] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[07:46] ---
    There it is.
[08:05] ---
    There's a hole in your sock.
[08:10] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[08:14] ---
    The real question is,
[08:16] ---
    do I even need to know?
[08:29] ---
    In the afternoon, the supply shortage
    I'd feared suddenly comes to the fore.
[08:33] ---
    3, 2, 1...
[08:36] ---
    Re-l, it's been 3 minutes.
[08:39] ---
    I still haven't washed my hair.
[08:41] ---
    But considering how much
    water we have left...
[08:44] ---
    I really need to wash my hair today.
[08:47] ---
    Re-l!
[08:48] ---
    Two more minutes.
[08:49] ---
    Your hair's short, so
    you only need a minute.
[08:52] ---
    But...
[08:54] ---
    After talking it over,
[08:56] ---
    the water shortage problem is
    temporarily solved.
[09:11] ---
    What's the matter?
[09:15] ---
    I'm exercising my eyeballs.
[09:30] ---
    There was a marked decline in
    the crew's morale this morning.
[09:35] ---
    It's been nearly three hours.
[09:47] ---
    What the hell are they doing?
[09:52] ---
    The food shortage problem only
    continues to grow worse.
[09:59] ---
    "Beans again?" Is that
    what you're thinking?
[10:02] ---
    Well, that's also true...
[10:05] ---
    but why did you arrange them like that?
[10:07] ---
    I thought a fresh appearance
    might make them more appealing.
[10:16] ---
    The act itself raised
    some serious questions,
[10:19] ---
    but just staring at that
    unconcerned face of his
[10:22] ---
    irritated me for no particular reason.
[10:40] ---
    The afternoon...
[10:43] ---
    brought no change.
[11:28] ---
    Brand new.
[11:32] ---
    The idiot.
[11:56] ---
    What's this?
[11:58] ---
    Being on this journey under
    these conditions...
[12:02] ---
    it suddenly dawns on me that
    there really is a kind of wall
[12:07] ---
    preventing Proxies and people...
[12:10] ---
    as well as cogito infected AutoReivs
    and people from interacting.
[12:14] ---
    Each entity is cordoned off and
    kept separate from the others.
[12:18] ---
    There are moments when I feel
    this truth in my very bones.
[12:31] ---
    I'll never understand.
[12:43] ---
    What the...?
[12:45] ---
    Hey, look!
[12:47] ---
    Not again. You're gonna get it from her.
[12:50] ---
    I'll paint your face too.
[12:53] ---
    Stop!
[12:55] ---
    Take a look!
[12:56] ---
    I said stop...
[12:59] ---
    But if you're gonna do it, maybe...
[13:04] ---
    Oh, it's Re-l!
[13:08] ---
    Look at Vince.
[13:16] ---
    Looks like fun.
[13:17] ---
    But...
[13:21] ---
    I'm sorry! Re-l!
[13:32] ---
    Standing before this vast,
    endless landscape,
[13:36] ---
    it occurs to me just how
    powerless and insignificant we are.
[13:46] ---
    What's your take on the situation?
[13:48] ---
    Have you figured a way out?
[13:51] ---
    A way out? Why are you asking me?
[13:54] ---
    I can't help it if the wind doesn't blow.
[13:57] ---
    And?
[13:59] ---
    And so, well...
[14:00] ---
    Well, what?
[14:02] ---
    No, nothing.
[14:04] ---
    What do you mean nothing?
[14:06] ---
    Is that your conclusion after
    really putting your mind to it?
[14:09] ---
    Or, have you not even tried to
    come up with something?
[14:12] ---
    First and foremost,
[14:13] ---
    what gives you the right to put dressing
    on our food without even asking?
[14:17] ---
    Why do I have to adjust my taste to yours?
[14:21] ---
    Well, um...
[14:22] ---
    If you have something you
    want to say, then say it.
[14:25] ---
    You don't seem to be able to
    take things into your own hands.
[14:28] ---
    It's the same thing with this trip.
[14:29] ---
    We're just making it up as we go
    along, aren't we?
[14:32] ---
    Do you have a clear sense of purpose?
[14:34] ---
    That's, well... I'm sure...
    if we go back to Mosk...
[14:39] ---
    I'm sorry.
[14:40] ---
    Flogging yourself is not an answer.
[14:42] ---
    I'm sorry...
[14:45] ---
    Why are you so wishy-washy?
[14:48] ---
    Don't give me that "what's
    she squawking about now?" look!
[14:51] ---
    I've lost my appetite.
[14:53] ---
    Well, um, as for me,
[14:55] ---
    I figured if we just wait it out,
    eventually the wind will...
[14:59] ---
    What are you suggesting now?
    That's just...
[15:04] ---
    Forget it.
[15:09] ---
    Still nothing to do.
[15:11] ---
    As a diversion, I observe the AutoReiv.
[15:18] ---
    No! When did that happen?!
[15:22] ---
    Don't give me that "what's
    she squawking about now?" look!
[15:25] ---
    I've lost my appetite.
[15:31] ---
    Perpetually bored,
    my powers of thought deteriorate.
[15:41] ---
    All I see are the problems.
[15:46] ---
    Re-l...
[15:50] ---
    I have tried to understand...
[16:00] ---
    but it is impossible.
[16:03] ---
    Predawn snow.
    Distance traveled remains unchanged.
[16:09] ---
    I get up as usual.
[16:21] ---
    I assess the situation.
[16:23] ---
    Still as calm as ever.
[16:35] ---
    On these bone-chilling days,
[16:38] ---
    even when I know it's time to get up,
    my body doesn't seem to comply.
[16:41] ---
    Oh, it's cold!
[16:43] ---
    Snow!
[16:45] ---
    Re-l! There's snow! Let's go play!
[16:50] ---
    Re-l...
[16:52] ---
    Hey...
[16:55] ---
    Come on!
[16:56] ---
    Pino, take a look! It's the aurora!
[16:59] ---
    What's that?!
[17:04] ---
    Wow! It's beautiful!
[17:22] ---
    You idiot!
[17:26] ---
    You stupid wind!
[17:30] ---
    Come and get me!
[17:36] ---
    What are you doing?
[17:38] ---
    I'm right here!
[17:47] ---
    I don't get it.
[17:49] ---
    Damn it! Come on!
[17:51] ---
    Come on, you bastard!
[17:54] ---
    Hey! Come on!
[18:01] ---
    Damn it!
[18:03] ---
    We used as little electricity as possible
    in order to save it for the future.
[18:15] ---
    She's really watching me.
[18:20] ---
    And she's saying something.
    I wonder what.
[18:24] ---
    Shave it. Shave it.
[18:28] ---
    Could it be Re-l is...?
[18:32] ---
    No, that's ridiculous.
[18:38] ---
    Maybe it's a sign of malnutrition,
    but my mind can't seem to relax.
[18:42] ---
    My nerves are about to snap.
[18:45] ---
    Did I reach my limit?
[19:30] ---
    I slept soundly for
    the first time in a while.
[19:32] ---
    I dreamed about Iggy.
[20:13] ---
    The only thing I can
    rely on is my own will.
[20:15] ---
    Vincent. The candle.
[20:18] ---
    Oh, sure.
[20:33] ---
    Ouch...
[20:38] ---
    What was that?
[20:39] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[20:40] ---
    About what?
[20:42] ---
    Don't give me that look.
[21:20] ---
    You're utterly hopeless.
[21:25] ---
    Are you all right?
[21:34] ---
    Gotcha!
[21:39] ---
    Pino, wait!
[21:51] ---
    You stupid wind!
[21:57] ---
    I said stop...
[22:02] ---
    Re-l...
[22:03] ---
    I'm right here!
[22:11] ---
    That feels good.
[22:20] ---
    I got you good, Vince!
[22:24] ---
    Don't laugh!
[22:25] ---
    Come and get me!
[22:29] ---
    The solution to a way
    out may be surprisingly simple.
[22:33] ---
    I started to realize that
    thinking about it was useless.
[22:39] ---
    What's more, for some reason...
[23:11] ---
    Pino!
[23:15] ---
    For some reason,
    I felt I could let myself smile.
[23:33] ---
    Wind!
[23:49] ---
    Another 2,000 miles to Mosk.
[23:54] ---
    A strong Southwest wind.
[25:30] ---
    A madness that roams
    the abandoned paradise.
[25:34] ---
    A shadow that stirs
    amongst the forgotten ruins.
[25:39] ---
    Our mutual thoughts now thunder.
[25:40] ---
    Never-Ending Battle
[25:42] ---
