[00:07] Martes
    This is the Shirokane Cluster?
[00:10] Martes
    It's deserted.
[00:12] Feles
    Hey, Equa, is this really the right place?
[00:15] Equa
    Yes, I'm certain.
[00:18] Equa
    The mansion should be up ahead.
[00:21] Equa
    That must be it. Let's go.
[00:26] Martes
    Excuse us! Anyone home?!
[00:32] Equa
    Oh my!
[00:35] Fernand
    Welcome!
[00:38] Fernand
    Oh, how I've waited for you.
[00:40] Fernand
    Please, come in.
[00:44] Feles
    What's the situation?
[00:46] Cendrillon
    Hey, Fernand! Where are you?!
[00:49] Fernand
    Mistress Cendrillon.
[00:51] Cendrillon
    Who are you?! I didn't invite you!
[00:54] Martes
    A little kid?
[00:55] Fernand
    Mistress!
[00:58] Fernand
    These people are your new playmates.
[01:02] Feles; Martes
    What?!
[01:02] Ulula
    Arf?!
SIGN    Estab Life: Great Escape
[02:36] Ulula
    Awoo!
[02:42] Cendrillon
    Giddyap!
[02:43] Ulula
    Arf!
SIGN    You Can't Run from Destiny
[02:45] Martes
    What do you mean, "playmates"?
[02:48] Fernand
    I'm terribly sorry. It was
    a necessary deception.
[02:52] Cendrillon
    Fernand! Fernand! I'm thirsty!
[02:55] Fernand
    I-I'll be right with you!
[02:56] Fernand
    Pardon the imposition, but
    please give me some time.
[03:02] Equa
    I suppose we'll wait here for now.
[03:05] Fernand
    Mistress.
[03:06] Cendrillon
    Good.
[03:09] Cendrillon
    What's this?! It's not sweet at all!
[03:12] Fernand
    Yesterday, you said that
    you were an adult now
[03:15] Fernand
    and would take your tea
    without sugar from now on.
[03:19] Cendrillon
    Shut up! Don't talk back to me!
[03:22] Cendrillon
    Make it again!
[03:23] Fernand
    A-At once.
[03:24] Martes
    What's her problem?
[03:26] Feles
    Talk about spoiled.
[03:27] Alga
    That brat's like a napalm bomb.
[03:31] Alga
    Hm?
[03:31] Fernand
    Um... How much have I told you?
[03:35] Equa
    Oh, nothing yet.
[03:37] Cendrillon
    Fernand! Fernand!
[03:40] Cendrillon
    My sock slipped down!
[03:43] Cendrillon
    Fix it!
[03:44] Cendrillon
    And make it quick!
[03:46] Fernand
    A-At once, Mistress!
[03:49] Fernand
    Give me another moment.
[03:51] Fernand
    I'll fix it immediately.
[03:53] Cendrillon
    Good.
[03:55] Fernand
    It is done, Mistress.
[04:00] Cendrillon
    Fernand! Wipe my mouth.
[04:03] Fernand
    Yes, of course, Mistress!
[04:07] Fernand
    You are now clean.
[04:10] Cendrillon
    It's not enough.
[04:12] Cendrillon
    I want more food! I want jelly!
     Make some quick!
[04:16] Fernand
    Yes, Mistress!
[04:18] Fernand
    I shall prepare it at once.
[04:21] Fernand
    Please, give me another moment
    to prepare her snack.
[04:25] Equa
    Of course.
[04:29] Alga
    No wonder that guy wants to run away.
[04:33] Equa
    I don't see any other servants.
[04:37] Martes
    I bet they all escaped.
[04:39] Martes
    Let's get this job over with and leave, too.
[04:43] Feles
    Will that girl be all
    right without her butler?
[04:48] Alga
    Not a chance. She's obviously
    got zero life skills.
[04:52] Martes
    What good will us worrying about her do?
[04:56] Feles
    Do you understand, Equa?
[04:59] Equa
    I do.
[05:00] Equa
    But we're extractors,
    and that butler is our client.
[05:05] Feles
    Even if our extracting him
    makes someone else miserable?
[05:10] Martes
    It's kind of the same difference,
     don't you think?
[05:12] Feles
    I wasn't asking for your—
[05:14] Equa
    Even so,
[05:16] Equa
    our job is to help people
    who want to run away.
[05:21] Equa
    Those who want to flee have a right
    to be happy, and we can't stop them.
[05:33] Fernand
    I'm so sorry to put you
    through all this trouble.
[05:37] Equa
    Don't mention it. You seem a bit tired.
[05:41] Fernand
    Yes. You're quite correct.
[05:44] Fernand
    Mistress Cendrillon, the owner
    of this mansion, is so demanding
[05:49] Fernand
    that all the other servants
    got fed up with her and left.
[05:53] Martes
    Oh, I knew it.
[05:55] Fernand
    I served her because I hoped to
    give her a life free of care,
[06:02] Fernand
    but perhaps that was the wrong choice.
[06:06] Fernand
    She used to be a little kinder.
[06:09] Equa
    That must have been difficult.
[06:11] Equa
    I think you've been an excellent
    butler to her for all this time.
[06:16] Fernand
    Oh, you're too kind!
[06:19] Fernand
    I don't know when anyone last
    said anything so nice to me!
[06:25] Fernand
    I resolved that I, at least,
    would stay to the end,
[06:29] Fernand
    but I have reached my limit.
[06:33] Equa
    Don't worry. I promise that
    we'll help you escape.
[06:44] Fernand
    And would you believe it?
[06:46] Fernand
    A kiss from the prince turned the
    salamander back into a princess.
[06:54] Fernand
    The princess returned to her castle,
[06:56] Fernand
    and lived happily ever after.
[07:17] Fernand
    Thank you for everything, Mistress.
[07:24] Fernand
    Thank you all for waiting.
[07:28] Feles
    Let's get going.
[07:29] Martes
    Is that all your luggage?
[07:31] Fernand
    Yes. The majority of my possessions
    are the property of this estate.
[07:38] Equa
    All right, everyone,
[07:40] Equa
    let's get to work.
[07:55] Alga
    So, old-timer, what'll you do once you escape?
[07:58] Fernand
    I hope to open a small patisserie.
[08:02] Fernand
    Baking pastries is the one thing
    Mistress Cendrillon complimented me on.
[08:07] Martes
    I hope it pans out for you.
[08:09] Fernand
    Yes. I hope that you'll all
    come to visit one day.
[08:13] Fernand
    I shall provide you with a
    special ten percent discount.
[08:18] Alga
    You're stingier than you look.
[08:19] Ulula
    Bow-wow.
[08:27] Fernand
    I am truly grateful to you all.
[08:30] Alga
    Don't kick the bucket too soon, now.
[08:32] Fernand
    Of course.
[08:37] Equa
    You're worried about
    Cendrillon-san, aren't you?
[08:39] Fernand
    I am, although you may
    think I've no right to be.
[08:44] Martes
    You're finally free, so try
    to look happier about it.
[08:48] Martes
    Otherwise, what did we extract you for?
[08:51] Fernand
    Y-Yes,
[08:54] Fernand
    I suppose you're right.
[08:56] Equa
    Devoting yourself to others is admirable,
    but please just think of yourself now.
[09:02] Fernand
    Equa-sama...
[09:06] Fernand
    Farewell to you all!
[09:11] Feles
    So, what now?
[09:15] Equa
    Will you give me a bit more of your time?
[09:21] Martes
    Really,
[09:22] Martes
    what are we going back for?
[09:24] Equa
    Something's been on my mind.
[09:27] Feles
    You mean Cendrillon?
[09:28] Equa
    Her too, but no.
[09:31] Equa
    I mean that.
[09:41] Martes
    Wh-What the hell is that?!
[09:47] Alga
    Little lady!
[09:47] Ulula
    Woof!
[09:48] Feles
    What are you doing?!
[09:52] Equa
    I'll be fine.
[09:57] Martes
    Senpai?!
[10:04] Feles
    What's going on?
[10:07] Equa
    This cluster is being terminated.
[10:10] Martes
    You mean this is cluster termination?!
[10:13] Feles
    Isn't that just an urban legend?
[10:15] Equa
    No, although this is my
    first time seeing it.
[10:19] Equa
    It will forcibly erase and reset
    everything created within the cluster.
[10:27] Martes
    So, you mean all this stuff will be gone?
[10:31] Equa
    Yes. It's just what it looks like.
[10:34] Feles
    The whole cluster?
[10:36] Feles
    That means that rich girl's
    mansion will disappear, too!
[10:40] Martes
    That's bad! We've gotta warn her!
[10:42] Equa
    Let's hurry.
[10:46] Feles
    Cendrillon!
[10:48] Martes
    Mistress!
[10:52] Equa
    Cendrillon-san!
[10:53] Martes
    There she is!
[10:57] Feles
    Let's get out of here quick.
[10:58] Alga
    Yeah.
[10:59] Martes
    You see, this cluster is gonna go away.
[11:01] Martes
    So...
[11:05] Cendrillon
    Why did you come back?
[11:07] Martes
    Huh? But the cluster is—
[11:10] Cendrillon
    With everyone gone, I was finally
    able to enjoy my tea in peace.
[11:16] Cendrillon
    Are you planning to extract me next?
[11:19] Equa
    You know that we're extractors, then?
[11:23] Cendrillon
    Well, yeah.
[11:25] Cendrillon
    You're right.
[11:28] Cendrillon
    This cluster will be terminated soon.
[11:30] Martes
    You know that, too?
[11:32] Cendrillon
    Of course.
[11:34] Cendrillon
    I am the moderator
    of Shirokane Cluster, after all.
[11:42] Cendrillon
    "A town where people can lead
    spiritually enriching lives."
[11:45] Cendrillon
    That was the original design
    concept for this cluster.
[11:50] Cendrillon
    I act willful, and everyone waits on me.
[11:54] Cendrillon
    It was set up so that they could
    all live carefree and happily
[11:58] Cendrillon
    as long as that relationship persisted.
[12:02] Cendrillon
    You could say that looking after
    me was a public works project.
[12:07] Equa
    Public works? Really?
[12:09] Alga
    You talk a good game.
[12:10] Cendrillon
    In order to fulfill my role as a moderator,
[12:15] Cendrillon
    I was designed to be a spoiled rich girl.
[12:18] Feles
    Did the people of this cluster know that?
[12:22] Cendrillon
    No. I never made a big deal about it.
[12:25] Equa
    Why is the cluster being terminated?
[12:37] Cendrillon
    This cluster's population stopped
    increasing decades ago.
[12:42] Cendrillon
    There were fewer and fewer residents.
[12:46] Cendrillon
    The balance that we all struck by
    supporting each other collapsed.
[12:53] Cendrillon
    I thought there might be
    something I could do,
[12:56] Cendrillon
    but it was no use.
[12:59] Cendrillon
    Clusters that can no longer sustain
    themselves are terminated and replaced.
[13:06] Cendrillon
    So I wanted to at least help the
    remaining residents evacuate.
[13:11] Martes
    That's why you were so demanding?
[13:14] Equa
    You thought that it would
    convince everyone to leave?
[13:19] Cendrillon
    Fernand was the only stubborn holdout.
[13:22] Cendrillon
    I was hard on him.
[13:25] Cendrillon
    Anyway, everyone's finally gone,
    so what are you doing here?!
[13:31] Martes
    Isn't there any way to fix things?
[13:33] Cendrillon
    None. The cluster's termination has begun.
[13:37] Cendrillon
    It was The Manager's decision.
    That's how the world works.
[13:41] Feles
    But doesn't that mean you'll disappear?
[13:45] Cendrillon
    I suppose.
[13:45] Martes
    You "suppose"?
[13:47] Cendrillon
    I'm a moderator. My cluster is me.
[13:53] Cendrillon
    I could never leave this place.
[13:55] Cendrillon
    I'll disappear with this town,
    but I really don't mind.
[14:05] Martes
    Senpai...
[14:07] Equa
    Cendrillon-san,
[14:09] Equa
    is there anything you want to do right now?
[14:12] Cendrillon
    Huh?
[14:13] Feles
    Huh? What are you talking about?!
[14:17] Cendrillon
    Let me think.
[14:19] Cendrillon
    If you insist, I'd like a party! A huge one!
[14:24] Martes
    Excuse me?!
[14:25] Equa
    All right. A huge party it is, then!
[14:29] Feles; Martes
    What?!
[14:29] Ulula
    Woof!
[14:35] Ulula
    Woof.
[14:36] Cendrillon
    How's it coming?
[14:38] Cendrillon
    A party lives and dies by the
    quality of its refreshments.
[14:41] Ulula
    W-Woof...
[14:42] Martes
    Should we really be doing this?
[14:48] Cendrillon
    That's weird. I want something cuter.
[14:50] Martes
    Hey! If you don't like it, do it yourself!
[14:54] Cendrillon
    I can't make things like that.
[14:58] Martes
    Just give it a try.
[15:00] Martes
    Come on!
[15:08] Martes
    You're even worse than me.
    Nothing cute about that.
[15:11] Cendrillon
    H-How is that my fault?! It's my first time!
[15:16] Martes
    Listen, when you cut here, you've got to—
[15:19] Martes
    Hey! I'm trying to teach
    you, so pay attention!
[15:22] Cendrillon
    Forget it. You make it.
[15:24] Martes
    At least make one!
[15:26] Cendrillon
    I said, forget it.
[15:30] Martes
    Jeez! I won't let you get away with that!
[15:36] Martes
    Hold it right there!
[15:42] Alga
    Listen, little lady.
[15:44] Alga
    By my calculations, this mansion
    will vanish around dawn.
[15:49] Equa
    Then we'll have to hurry up with the party.
[15:53] Equa
    Oh, Feles-san, please grab those for me.
[15:57] Feles
    Should we really be doing this?
[16:00] Equa
    I even considered bringing her
    back to Vostok if necessary.
[16:05] Feles
    Seriously?
[16:06] Equa
    Let's give Cendrillon-san
    the time of her life.
[16:11] Feles
    Fine.
[16:13] Cendrillon
    Equa!
[16:16] Cendrillon
    Well, now, it's not half bad.
[16:18] Cendrillon
    But the one on the right is a bit crooked.
[16:21] Feles
    What? Really?
[16:23] Cendrillon
    Feles, if you would?
[16:24] Feles
    Huh?! Me?!
[16:27] Feles
    Um... L-Like this?
[16:30] Cendrillon
    Yes, that's good.
[16:32] Cendrillon
    Next—
[16:33] Martes
    There you are!
[16:35] Cendrillon
    Leave me alone!
[16:37] Martes
    Get back here!
[16:38] Alga
    It's like a kindergarten.
[16:41] Alga
    Is she really a moderator?
[16:42] Feles
    I think this one's off, too.
[16:52] Cendrillon
    Let's party!
[17:00] Equa
    Next, right hand on red.
[17:04] Cendrillon
    No way! This is impossible!
[17:07] Martes
    Hey, you there. Just liquefy
    your body a little.
[17:10] Cendrillon
    No way in hell!
[17:12] Alga
    Watch your language, Mistress.
[17:14] All
    Who is the king?
[17:16] Cendrillon
    Me!
[17:18] Cendrillon
    All right. Number two...
[17:21] Cendrillon
    gets a kiss from number three.
[17:24] Martes
    Huh? Who's number three?
[17:26] Equa
    I am, Martes-san.
[17:28] Martes
    Equa-senpai?!
[17:30] Equa
    Yes.
[17:31] Martes
    E-Equa-senpai! Let's kiss!
    Right here! Right now!
[17:35] Cendrillon
    Oh, I knew it.
[17:36] Cendrillon
    Number two, massage the king's shoulders!
[17:39] Martes
    N-No fair.
[17:40] Alga
    Mar-ko! You have to do what the king says.
[17:44] Martes
    No way!
[18:22] Cendrillon
    Now, let's all sing together!
[18:25] Feles
    Sing?
[18:26] Equa
    What should we sing?
[18:28] Cendrillon
    This ending is a new beginning.
[18:31] Cendrillon
    Let's sing "Happy Birthday" for the
    new life about to be born.
[18:36] Martes
    I don't get it.
[18:38] Cendrillon
    Who cares? Ready, go.
[18:41] Equa; Cendrillon
    Happy birthday to you!
[18:45] Martes; Feles
    Happy birthday to you!
[18:46] Ulula
    Bow-wow bow-wow-wow!
[18:48] All
    Happy birthday, dear...
[18:52] Equa
    Cendrillon-san!
[18:52] Feles
    Um... Cendrillon?
[18:52] Martes
    Cendrillon?
[18:52] Ulula
    Bow-wow-wow?
[18:54] Cendrillon
    None of you match!
[19:00] All
    Happy birthday to you!
[19:14] Cendrillon
    That was a blast!
[19:16] Feles
    I haven't stayed up this
    late partying in ages.
[19:19] Martes
    I partied too hard.
[19:34] Martes
    H-Hey, we can still keep going, right?
[19:37] Martes
    Somewhere else, you know?!
[19:40] Cendrillon
    Where?
[19:42] Ulula
    W-Woof!
[19:44] Martes
    Y-Yeah! I've seen a lot
    of different clusters.
[19:48] Martes
    There are tons of more fun places to—
[19:52] Feles
    Marte...
[19:54] Cendrillon
    What are you talking about?
[19:58] Cendrillon
    Nothing could ever be more fun than today!
[20:04] Martes
    Senpai...
[20:14] Cendrillon
    All right, party's over.
[20:18] Martes
    No way.
[20:20] Cendrillon
    Thank you for the meal, Ulula.
[20:22] Cendrillon
    If you ever quit extracting, you and
     Alga should open a restaurant.
[20:26] Ulula
    Woof!
[20:27] Alga
    Give me a break!
[20:29] Cendrillon
    Feles, thank you for the decorations.
[20:32] Cendrillon
    I was surprised by how skilled you were.
[20:35] Feles
    Cendrillon.
[20:37] Cendrillon
    Marte, you're the first person
    who ever argued with me.
[20:43] Cendrillon
    Squabbling turned out
    to be surprisingly fun.
[20:46] Martes
    It did not!
[20:49] Cendrillon
    That was a lovely party, Equa.
[20:53] Equa
    I'm glad you liked it.
[20:57] Cendrillon
    Thank you all!
[21:00] Cendrillon
    I'm so glad that I didn't
    have to say goodbye alone.
[21:05] Cendrillon
    You're the first and last
    friends I'll ever have!
[21:36] Feles
    She was smiling at the end.
[21:42] Equa
    I'll never forget what happened today.
[21:47] Feles
    Yeah.
