[00:06] Alga
    How many times do I have to say
    it to make you understand?!
[00:08] Alga
    It's an absolute necessity!
[00:12] Alga
    Can't you see that, little lady?!
[00:14] Equa
    Well, I'm not opposed,
    but we can't afford it.
[00:19] Alga
    I know that money is important,
[00:21] Alga
    but some expenses are just necessary!
[00:25] Equa
    We can't spend what we don't have.
[00:27] Alga
    Oh, is that so?! What a shame!
[00:29] Feles
    Do you mind if I study here for... a bit?
[00:31] Alga
    Anyway, do you realize how many
    times we've had this conversation?!
[00:35] Equa
    But you see, well...
[00:36] Alga
    I've had it!
[00:37] Alga
    C'mere, Dog Breath! We're picking
     up where we left off!
[00:40] Ulula
    Bow-wow.
[00:41] Equa
    Alga-san...
[00:43] Martes
    That piece of junk is so
    unreasonable with Equa-senpai.
[00:47] Feles
    What's up?
[00:49] Equa
    Oh, Feles-san. I'm sorry for the noise.
[00:53] Equa
    Alga-san wants to stock up on
    more weapons and ammunition.
[00:57] Feles
    Huh. What's he think we're short on?
[01:00] Martes
    He wants 20 cruise missiles,
[01:03] Martes
    and 30 concrete-piercing shells.
[01:08] Feles
    What's he planning to fight?

[02:47] Equa
    Here! It's on the house.
[02:49] Feles
    Thanks.
[02:57] Feles
    You know...
[03:00] Feles
    This place is always deserted.
[03:02] Equa
    I like the quiet atmosphere.
[03:06] Feles
    Are you sure the business isn't failing?
[03:08] Equa
    Oh, yes. It's very much on the rocks.
[03:11] Feles
    This place is kind of, you know, retro.
[03:16] Feles
    Why not at least change up that apron a bit?
[03:19] Equa
    Hm... but I'm awfully fond of this one.
[03:23] Martes
    Senpai!
[03:25] Martes
    You'd look even better in a cuter apron!
[03:27] Martes
    Like one a maid would wear!
[03:31] Mini-Marte 1
    All in favor of the maid
    uniform proposal, raise your hands!
[03:34] Mini-Marte 2
    Me! Me!
[03:35] Mini-Marte 3
    No objections!
[03:39] Equa
    I'd love to try one if I got the chance.
[03:42] Martes
    Let's drum up some business!
[03:44] Feles
    What's gotten into you?
[03:45] Martes
    For example... Yes!
[03:48] Martes
    A festival! Those bring people in!
[03:50] Feles
    At a café?
[03:51] Martes
    That was just an example.
[03:53] Martes
    There's also, um, long lines.
[03:57] Martes
    And people line up for...
[03:59] Feles
    Popular desserts?
[04:02] Martes
    Chasing trends like that
    almost never pans out.
[04:08] Martes
    The boom is over by the
    time you get in on it.
[04:11] Feles
    It's not like you have any better ideas.
[04:14] Martes
    Anyway, this place needs a makeover
    if we want to draw in customers!

[04:20] Martes
    First, look at this menu!
[04:22] Feles
    Coffee, tea, pasta,
    sandwiches, pizza toast...
[04:28] Feles
    Isn't this pretty standard for a café?
[04:30] Martes
    We need something catchier
    to draw customers.
[04:34] Martes
    It's time for a shake-up! An all-new menu!
[04:37] Equa
    I like keeping it classic, though.
[04:40] Martes
    But your beloved café will go
    under unless we do something.
[04:46] Martes
    I couldn't bear that.
[04:49] Equa
    Thank you, Martes-san!
[04:51] Equa
    And you're so kind too, Feles-san.
[04:54] Feles
    Huh? No, I really haven't—
[04:56] Equa
    Now, let's brainstorm our new menu!
[05:00] Martes
    Yeah!
[05:05] Alga
    Damn it. The little lady's so stubborn.
[05:09] Alga
    Don't you agree, Dog Breath?
[05:12] Ulula
    Woof...
[05:13] Alga
    I know she's got Fatal Luck going for her,
[05:16] Alga
    but we can't lean too heavily on that.
[05:19] Alga
    It'll be too late to fix anything if we
    can't protect her when things go south.
[05:23] Ulula
    Bow-wow...
[05:24] Alga
    Yeah, it all comes back to money.
[05:29] Alga
    If only we had more.
[05:30] Ulula
    Woof?
[05:34] Ulula
    Arf?
[05:35] Alga
    A secret stash?
[05:36] Alga
    There might be more! Let's get
     looking, Dog Breath!
[05:40] Ulula
    Woof!
SIGN    New menu ideas!
    Chocolate cake
    Waffles (totally delicious)
    
    Increased sales -> Happy Equa-senpai!
    
     Swiss roll (packed with fruit)
    Tiramisu (matcha)
    Cream puff (a hit with kids and adults)
     Pancakes (super fluffy)
    Divinely delicious!; Top pick
[05:42] Martes
    How's this?!
[05:43] Equa
    Wow! You're so good at this, Martes-san.
[05:48] Martes
    I thought something like this might happen,
[05:49] Martes
    so I've been working sleeplessly
    on ideas during class!
[05:52] Feles
    How do you do so well on tests if
    you're always asleep or doodling?
[05:57] Equa
    You used your precious
    school time? Thank you so much!
[06:01] Feles
    Pancakes, chiffon cake, tiramisu...
[06:05] Feles
    What's this one?
[06:08] Martes
    That's paradodiso nu.
[06:12] Feles
    Huh? What's that?
[06:15] Martes
    Paradodiso nu! I just told you!
[06:19] Feles
    Ring any bells?
[06:20] Equa
    Nope.
[06:21] Feles
    We've never heard of it.
[06:23] Martes
    What?! You haven't?!
[06:26] Martes
    It's a dessert I invented!
[06:28] Feles
    How could we know that?!
[06:31] Feles
    Serving weird stuff like that
    will hurt more than it helps.
[06:35] Feles
    How about something more
    normal, like... coffee jelly?
[06:40] Equa
    Oh, that's a good idea, too!
[06:43] Equa
    We're proud of our coffee!
[06:44] Feles
    Yeah. This is a café,
    so let's use this shop's coffee.
[06:48] Martes
    Um...
[06:50] Equa; Feles
    Hm?
[06:51] Martes
    I'm not big on eating jelly.
    It feels like cannibalism.
[06:56] Feles
    Oh. Right...
[06:58] Equa
    For now, let's experiment!
[07:01] Equa
    I'm counting on you too, Feles-san!
[07:04] Feles
    O-Okay.
[07:06] Alga
    Good grief.
[07:08] Alga
    Hey, Dog Breath. You find anything?
[07:11] Ulula
    Woof...
[07:12] Alga
    What? That's just trash.
[07:15] Ulula
    Arf...
[07:16] Alga
    Hm? What's this?
[07:20] Alga
    Just plated. It won't sell for much.
[07:23] Alga
    Damn it. There's nothing good here.
[07:26] Ulula
    Arf! Arf!
[07:29] Alga
    Hey, cut out that whining! It's weird.
[07:33] Alga
    What are you looking at?
[07:34] Ulula
    Woof!
[07:35] Ulula
    Bow-wow!
[07:38] Alga
    What's so great about that hairy thing?
[07:43] Alga
    Whoa!
[07:45] Alga
    What tempting curves!
[07:48] Ulula
    Woof!
[07:53] Feles
    Taste-testing is hard work.
[07:56] Martes
    I feel like my mouth may never recover.
[07:59] Feles
    Did she really have to
    make this much at once?
[08:02] Martes
    I couldn't even tell what I was
    eating by the end of that.
[08:07] Feles
    This defeats the purpose of taste-testing.
[08:13] Equa
    Shall I brew fresh coffee?
[08:15] Feles
    Yes, please.
[08:18] Martes
    That reminds me! I've got
    an idea about coffee!
[08:23] Equa
    You do?
[08:26] Equa
    Amazing, Martes-san! This could
    become our flagship drink!
[08:30] Feles
    Wow. I'm impressed.
[08:32] Martes
    Equa-senpai, praise me more!
[08:36] Equa
    Well done, Martes-san.
[08:38] Martes
    More!
[08:40] Equa
    You did a great job!
[08:43] Martes
    Oh, that's yours, Feles-senpai. Drink up.
[08:48] Feles
    That figures.
[08:51] Equa
    Now for a taste.
[08:53] Martes
    Oh! S-Stop!
[08:57] Martes
    You see...
[08:58] Martes
    I don't want to lose the
    Equa-senpai I worked so hard on.
[09:02] Martes
    Oh, but maybe it's all right
    if Equa-senpai drinks it.
[09:07] Martes
    Senpai erasing herself
    would give me the chills.
[09:13] Martes
    But also, well...
[09:16] Feles
    What are you talking about?
[09:17] Martes
    Equa-senpai! Let's run this
    café together forever!
[09:23] Equa
    Let's!
[09:25] Martes
    Yes!
[09:26] Equa
    And Feles-san makes three of us.
[09:28] Feles
    Huh?
[09:29] Martes
    What?!
[09:31] Feles
    Count me out.
[09:36] Alga
    Whoa! I got completely mesmerized!
[09:39] Ulula
    W-Woof...
[09:40] Alga
    That's enough recharging.
[09:43] Alga
    Now, what can we sell?
[09:45] Ulula
    Woof? Woof!
[09:48] Alga
    What's up?
[09:49] Ulula
    Bow-wow!
[09:52] Alga
    Is this... a safe?
[09:56] Alga
    Now this is a discovery!
[10:05] Alga
    What's wrong with this safe? It won't budge..
[10:09] Ulula
    Arf...
[10:10] Alga
    No more Mister Nice Guy!
[10:13] Alga
    You'll regret making me get serious!
[10:19] Ulula
    Woof...
[10:22] Equa
    Well then, I'll make a shopping run
[10:24] Equa
    to replace the ingredients we used up.
[10:27] Equa
    Fill in for me if a customer comes in.
[10:30] Feles
    Okay, but that's a big if.
[10:33] Martes
    Sorry, Equa-senpai. Take care.
[10:37] Equa
    I will. Bye now.
[10:44] Martes
    Ugh. I'm feeling kind of beat.
[10:47] Feles
    Your attitude really changes
    when Equa's not around.
[10:52] Martes
    What's wrong with that?
[10:54] Martes
    Oh, Feles-senpai, make me some coffee.
[10:57] Feles
    What? Make it yourself.
[11:00] Feles
    Jeez...
[11:03] Feles
    Here.
[11:06] Martes
    It must be nice.
[11:09] Martes
    Equa-senpai really needing you, I mean.
[11:13] Feles
    What brought this on?
[11:15] Feles
    There's nothing special about me.
[11:18] Martes
    I want to be Equa-senpai's number one!
[11:24] Martes
    I want Equa-senpai to
    depend on me a lot more!
[11:27] Martes
    I want her to think,
    "Thank goodness I've got Martes."
[11:31] Feles
    Is that why you came up
    with those menu ideas?
[11:35] Martes
    Oh, well. It doesn't matter.
[11:40] Martes
    Anyway, why'd you go back
    to being an extractor?
[11:46] Martes
    You quit once before I joined and
    then came back, right? What for?
[11:52] Feles
    You know how pushy Equa can be.
[11:55] Martes
    But you could have turned
    her down if you wanted to.
[11:59] Feles
    Well...
[12:04] Martes
    What was that?!
[12:05] Feles
    Jeez! What are those two
    doing in the basement?
[12:13] Feles
    Hey, what's with all this smoke?
[12:15] Martes
    What are you up to?
[12:16] Alga
    Oh, Feles and Mar-ko.
[12:18] Feles
    Don't tell me you used explosives.
[12:21] Alga
    Yeah, an LSC. Just a little
    V-type linear shaped charge.
[12:25] Feles
    Moron! What if your bomb had started a fire?
[12:29] Feles
    And what about you?!
[12:30] Feles
    Why didn't you stop him?!
[12:31] Ulula
    Woof! Bow-wow!
[12:33] Alga
    Don't blow a gasket. We've got bigger problems.
[12:38] Alga
    All that didn't put a dent in this thing.
[12:40] Alga
    There might be some kind of spell on it.
[12:45] Feles
    Is this a safe?
[12:48] Alga
    Feles, can you tell?
[12:54] Feles
    I sense protection.
    Whatever's inside must be important.
[12:59] Alga
    Can you break through?
[13:01] Feles
    Only if you don't care what
    happens to the stuff inside.
[13:04] Feles
    And isn't this café property?
    We can't open it without permission.
[13:08] Alga
    Hm... What to do?
[13:11] Feles
    Hey. Are you listening?
[13:13] Martes
    I wonder what's in it.
[13:15] Alga
    What are you, stupid? Look how tough it is.
[13:18] Alga
    There's got to be an
    amazing treasure inside!
[13:21] Martes
    That doesn't answer my question.
[13:23] Alga
    It might even hold some secret
    the little lady's been hiding.
[13:28] Martes
    B-But we can't look at her
    secrets without asking.
[13:34] Alga
    Aren't you curious?
[13:36] Alga
    We'll just take a look. A little peek.
[13:39] Alga
    Come on.
[13:45] Martes
    Equa-senpai says she's done shopping.
[13:49] Alga
    Y-You wouldn't rat me out, would you?!
[13:52] Alga
    Hey! Mar-ko!
[13:54] Martes
    Look.
SIGN    Sorry, Equa-senpai!
    I actually forgot something... (-_-;)
    
     Could you pick up another two bottles of milk
     and maybe something salty?
     Sorry to add to your shopping list.
[13:55] Martes
    This will buy us some time.
[13:58] Alga
    Nice going!
[13:59] Martes
    Still, opening this won't be easy.
[14:02] Feles
    I think we'll just have to unlock
    it the old-fashioned way.
[14:07] Alga
    Meaning we need to guess the code.
[14:11] Feles
    Pretty much.
[14:12] Alga
    I hate to admit it beat me physically,
    but I guess I'll have to.
[14:16] Alga
    Five digits. That means 100,000
    possible combinations.
[14:19] Martes
    You're gonna try them all?!
[14:21] Alga
    It's the fastest way when
    you've got no leads.
[14:33] Feles
    Wow.
[14:34] Alga
    This will give me arm cramps!
[14:37] Alga
    There we go!
[14:39] Martes
    Huh?!
[14:40] Martes
    She finished the extra shopping, too!
[14:43] Feles
    What?! Already?!
[14:44] Ulula
    Bow-wow!
[14:46] Alga
    Ask for something that'll be hard to find!
[14:49] Martes
    Like what?! Any ideas, Feles-senpai?!
[14:54] Feles
    U-Um... Alligator meat?
[14:56] Martes
    That's our resident weirdo!
[14:58] Feles
    Hey!
[14:59] Alga
    Ask for ostrich eggs, too!
[15:01] Martes
    Roger!
SIGN    I bought two milks and some shiokara!
     It was hard finding a store that sold it,
     but I managed.
     I'll head back now.
    
SIGN    Senpai, I'm sorry!
     I forgot that wasn't everything I need!
[15:02] Martes
    "I'd also like alligator
    meat and ostrich eggs."
SIGN    I'd also like alligator meat and ostrich eggs!
SIGN    Senpai, I'm sorry!
     I forgot that wasn't everything I need!
SIGN    I'd also like alligator meat and ostrich eggs.
[15:08] Martes
    There.
[15:11] Martes
    No way.
[15:12] Martes
    "They sell those right here.
     I'll pick some up."
[15:16] Alga
    Seriously?
[15:17] Feles
    She'll get back any minute now.
[15:20] Martes
    "I'm sorry! Pick up some kangaroo, too."
[15:23] Alga
    Oh no! My arms won't last!
[15:28] Martes
    No way! She already picked up kangaroo
    meat because it seemed unusual?!
[15:32] Feles
    What's with her?
[15:33] Martes
    Um... What else?
[15:37] Martes
    Ah! Now she's calling me!
SIGN    Equa-senpai
[15:39] Alga
    Don't pick up! Don't risk
    giving her answers!
[15:41] Feles
    She'll get suspicious if we keep
    asking her for weird things!
[15:45] Martes
    What'll we do?!
[15:46] Alga
    Give me that!
[15:47] Feles
    Hey!
[15:55] Feles
    Now she's calling me!
SIGN    Equa
[15:58] Alga
    Keep her busy and buy us time.
[16:01] Alga
    We're done for if she gets
    back and finds us like this.
[16:04] Feles
    Easier said than done.
[16:06] Martes
    Feles-senpai! We're begging you!
[16:09] Martes
    Don't let all our hard work be for nothing!
[16:11] Feles
    For real?
[16:17] Equa
    Oh, Feles-san?
[16:18] Equa
    I can't seem to reach
    Martes-san on the phone.
[16:22] Equa
    Is anything wrong over there?
[16:26] Feles
    Beep. I cannot come to the phone right now.
[16:31] Feles
    Please call back at a later time.
[16:40] Alga
    I guess that'll do.
[16:42] Feles
    Hurry up. I can't take any more of this.
[16:47] Alga
    Damn! Why won't it open?!
[16:50] Martes
    Can't you work faster?
[16:52] Alga
    It's not a calculation. I'm doing my best.
[17:01] Alga
    I'm at my limit!
[17:03] Feles; Martes
    Alga!
[17:03] Martes
    Hey, Alga?! Are you okay?!
[17:06] Martes
    Feles-senpai, keep going!
[17:07] Feles
    What?!
[17:08] Feles
    If all that wasn't enough to
    open it, how am I supposed to—
[17:15] Feles
    Huh?
[17:16] Martes
    It opened.
[17:24] Feles
    This looks likes the deed to the café.
[17:27] Martes
    There's something else in back.
[17:31] Martes
    A stuffed animal?
[17:33] Martes
    There's something in its pouch.
[17:36] Martes
    Is that... computer memory?
[17:39] Feles
    It looks like it.
[17:40] Martes
    It might have something on it,
    so let's stick it in Alga.
[17:44] Feles
    Y-Yeah. We've come too far to turn back.
[17:51] Martes
    Nothing's happening.
[17:54] All
    Whoa!
[17:58] Feles
    Isn't this...
[17:59] Martes
    Vostok?
[18:21] Equa
    I'll be working at this café from now on.
[18:23] Equa
    It's not just old. Something about
    it feels familiar.
[18:28] Equa
    I want to get it sparkling clean!
[18:32] Feles
    When was this filmed?
[18:35] Martes
    It doesn't look like that long ago.
[18:38] Ulula
    Woof.

[18:49] Equa
    I don't know much about trends,
    but I like these sorts of things.
[18:55] Equa
    A warm, laid-back experience.
[18:59] Equa
    I hope my customers will relax
    in this calm, quiet atmosphere.
[19:07] Equa
    I don't know much about
    the taste of coffee yet,
[19:12] Equa
    but I want to get used to
    things little by little.
[19:17] Equa
    And...
[19:20] Equa
    I want to make friends—
    good friends—in this cluster.
[19:24] Equa
    I'd like to run this café with
    them forever, always just the same.
[19:35] Equa
    The end.
[19:49] Alga
    What?! Huh? Hm?
[19:53] Alga
    Hey, where's the treasure?
    What about the safe?
[19:56] Alga
    Huh? Are you crying, Mar-ko?
[20:00] Martes
    Shut up.
[20:01] Alga
    No, but... the treasure.
[20:03] Feles
    Forget about it.
[20:05] Ulula
    Woof...
[20:07] Equa
    What? Are you all down here?
[20:10] Feles
    Equa!
[20:11] Martes
    Equa-senpai!
[20:18] Equa
    Did you... watch it?
[20:21] Feles
    Sorry. A lot happened.
[20:23] Equa
    Don't be. It's just a little embarrassing.
[20:27] Martes
    Equa-senpai!
[20:30] Equa
    Martes-san?
[20:31] Martes
    Let's run this café
    together forever and ever!
[20:35] Martes
    Feles-senpai can even join in!
[20:37] Equa
    Yes, of course.
[20:39] Equa
    Oh, that reminds me.
[20:41] Equa
    I bought all sorts of ingredients,
    so let's experiment with new dishes!
[20:45] Martes
    We don't need anything new!
    The old menu is A-okay!
[20:50] Martes
    I'm sorry, Senpai!
[20:53] Equa
    U-Um, M-Martes-san?
[20:55] Equa
    Are you all right? What's wrong?
[20:58] Feles
    Equa...
[20:58] Equa
    Yes?
[21:00] Feles
    Let's keep doing things
    the way we always have.
[21:07] Equa
    Yes. We'll all always be together.
[21:12] Feles
    I guess so.
[21:13] Equa
    Yes!
[21:14] Alga
    I don't get it!
[21:15] Equa
    Do you want to join in on the
    squeezy-squeezy, Alga-san?
[21:17] Alga
    Huh? I'm good! Mar-ko can
    have that all to herself!
[21:20] Equa
    Sure! Squeezy-squeezy!
[21:22] Martes
    Squeezy-squeezy!
