    Ran Through the Flowers
[01:17] Momo
    "The Steam Train That
    Ran Through the Flowers."
[01:22] King
    It's about to start!
[01:40] King
    And here I go!
[01:43] King
    I can't wait to see what
    Momo gets up to this week!
[01:48] Queen
    You're so happy-go-lucky, darling.
[01:51] King
    What do you mean?
[01:52] Queen
    I'm always beside myself with worry.
[01:55] Queen
    Every time the Momo seen on the
    gems reveals a new magical power,
[01:59] Queen
    I just get so anxious about
    what's going to happen...
[02:03] King
    Well, there's nothing I can do about it.
[02:07] King
    If I worried all the time like you
    do, I'd become a mess of wrinkles!
[02:12] Queen
    Oh, forget you!
[02:13] King
    Look! It's starting!
[02:15] Queen
    Oh.
[02:18] Papa
    Momo, could you run an errand for me?
[02:21] Momo
    Sure thing, Papa!
[02:22] Papa
    Could you take this medicine to the
    Baskerville Veterinary Hospital in Dunno Village?
[02:27] Momo
    Okay. Leave it to me!
[02:31] Mama
    The way to Dunno Village is very complex.
[02:34] Mama
    People frequently get lost
    their first time going there.
[02:37] Mama
    Take care!
[02:38] Momo
    I'll be fine. Don't worry!
[02:47] Mama
    The way to Dunno Village is very complex.
[02:49] Mama
    People frequently get lost
    their first time going there.
[02:52] Mama
    Take care!
[02:55] Momo
    I guess Mama was right. Darn.
[02:58] Sind
    I can't take anymore!
[02:59] Sind
    I'm taking a break.
[03:02] Momo
    You're just fine, Sindbook!
[03:04] Sind
    I am not!
[03:06] Sind
    Though he probably is.
[03:11] Mocha
    What a happy-go-lucky guy!
[03:13] Pipil
    While the rest of us are suffering!
[03:15] Sind
    He's got major issues.
[03:17] Momo
    You always gang up on Kajira!
[03:20] Momo
    That's not very grown-up of you.
[03:21] Pipil
    B-But I'm not grown up yet.
[03:24] Mocha
    I'm only in my teens.
[03:26] Sind
    I'm... middle-aged.
[03:27] Momo
    Anyway, look around.
[03:29] Momo
    Isn't it lovely?
[03:37] Pipil
    Yes, it is! How romantic!
[03:39] Mocha
    Forget romance.
[03:40] Mocha
    I wanna get to our destination
    and get something to eat!
[03:43] Sind
    Same. I'm starving!
[03:52] Momo
    That sounded like a steam engine!
[03:53] Sind
    Where?
[03:55] Mocha
    O-Over there!
[04:42] Momo
    So lovely!
[04:47] Baskerville
    What? A steam train?
[04:50] Momo
    Yes, it's true, Mr. Baskerville!
[04:53] Momo
    It went "chug-chug-chug" through the flowers!
[04:56] Momo
    It was so impressive!
[04:58] Momo
    And it was all sparkling steel!
[05:01] Momo
    So manly and appealing.
[05:04] Momo
    Makes me glad I got lost.
[05:06] Baskerville
    Hey, Momo...
[05:09] Momo
    What is it?
[05:10] Baskerville
    There aren't any steam trains
    running from this town.
[05:13] Momo
    What? No way.
[05:14] Wife
    It's true. There aren't even any
    tracks through those flowers.
[05:18] Momo
    But... But I saw it!
[05:22] Momo
    I heard it, too!
[05:25] Baskerville
    Maybe you got lost and
    dozed off near the flowers?
[05:28] Momo
    No! That's not what happened!
[05:31] Wife
    Well, let's have dinner in the dining room.
[05:33] Baskerville
    That's right.
[05:35] Baskerville
    I've let your parents know, so
    feel free to spend the night here.
[05:38] Baskerville
    Come on along.
[05:39] Wife
    Join us!
[05:41] Momo
    It wasn't a dream, was it?
[05:43] Mocha
    Of course not!
[05:44] Mocha
    I don't think...
[05:45] Sind
    It couldn't be a fox playing a trick on us.
[05:48] Pipil
    But Mr. Baskerville didn't
    look like he was lying either!
[05:52] Momo
    Then what's going on?
[05:55] King
    Really, what's going on here?
[05:57] Queen
    You really don't know?
[05:59] King
    Tell me, tell me, please!
[06:01] Queen
    I don't know either.
[06:03] Queen
    Let's keep watching.
[06:12] Mocha
    Hurry! Hurry!
[06:13] Momo
    It was around here, right?
[06:15] All
    Um, well...
[06:16] Momo
    Let's look all around!
[06:23] Momo
    I didn't see anything.
[06:24] Pipil
    No tracks at all.
[06:26] Sind
    I don't believe it.
[06:28] Mocha
    Kajira! You didn't eat the rails, did you?
[06:34] Momo
    I don't believe it.
[06:36] Sind
    Maybe it was a fox after all?
[06:38] Cecilia
    Excuse me.
[06:39] Momo
    Who's there?!
[06:41] Cecilia
    So sorry to startle you.
[06:43] Momo
    Oh, ma'am! Can I help you?
[06:46] Cecilia
    You're Momo from Somewhere City, right?
[06:49] Momo
    Y-Yes...
[06:51] Cecilia
    My name is Cecilia.
[06:54] Cecilia
    I live in that house there.
[06:58] Cecilia
    I spoke to Dr. Baskerville.
[07:01] Cecilia
    He says you saw a steam train last night?
[07:03] Momo
    Yes, that's right!
[07:05] Cecilia
    The train last ran through this
    town when I was still a girl.
[07:10] Momo
    Really?
[07:13] Momo
    And you've lived here ever since?
[07:15] Cecilia
    Yes, but I lived with my father back then.
[07:25] Momo
    That's your father and
    you when you were young?
[07:27] Cecilia
    Yes.
[07:31] Momo
    That's a lovely painting.
[07:33] Cecilia
    Mark painted it.
[07:35] Momo
    Mark?
[07:37] Cecilia
    My childhood friend.
[07:39] Cecilia
    He was poor, but he had a dream to
    become a world-famous painter.
[07:53] Momo
    Ma'am... you loved him, didn't you?
[07:56] Cecilia
    Yes.
[07:59] Pipil
    What a lovely love story!
[08:04] Cecilia
    Over the course of making this painting,
[08:09] Cecilia
    Mark and I realized how
    we felt about each other.
[08:13] Cecilia
    Mark wanted to go to Paris to study art,
[08:16] Cecilia
    and of course, I meant to go with him.
[08:20] (Flashback) Father
    Never! I won't allow it!
[08:22] (Flashback) Cecilia
    Father!
[08:24] (Flashback) Cecilia
    Please...
[08:26] (Flashback) Father
    Marry and go to Paris? I won't allow it!
[08:29] (Flashback) Father
    Mark, get out!
[08:31] (Flashback) Father
    Never come back here again!
[08:33] (Flashback) Cecilia
    Father!
[08:36] Momo
    What happened to you then?
[08:39] Cecilia
    We nevertheless made a promise
    to run away to Paris together.
[08:44] Momo
    Oh! So you were going to elope?
[08:47] Cecilia
    Yes.
[08:48] Cecilia
    We were going to board the night train
    through the flowers and go to Paris.
[08:57] Momo
    What happened then?
[08:58] Cecilia
    I didn't get on the train.
[09:01] Cecilia
    Rather... I couldn't.
[09:03] All
    What?
[09:28] Cecilia
    Father...
[09:32] Cecilia
    Mark!
[09:39] Cecilia
    I... I couldn't bring myself to
    leave my elderly father all alone.
[09:55] (Flashback) Cecilia
    Mark!
[10:04] (Flashback) Cecilia
    Mark!
[10:19] Momo
    What happened to Mark then?
[10:22] Cecilia
    I'm sure he thought I lost
    my nerve at the last minute.
[10:26] Cecilia
    I never received any letters from him.
[10:29] Cecilia
    Some time after, I heard he died in the war.
[10:34] Cecilia
    My father passed away, and I was all alone.
[10:38] Cecilia
    Soon after, the train stopped running,
[10:40] Cecilia
    and very few people now know that
    a train ever ran through there.
[10:45] Cecilia
    Nevertheless, I sometimes wish I
    had gotten on the train back then.
[10:52] Cecilia
    I'm very sorry to tell you such a long story.
[10:54] Cecilia
    I just thought it was so strange
    that you said you saw that train...
[10:58] Momo
    Ma'am, let's go.
[11:01] Momo
    Let's go there tonight, together!
[11:03] Momo
    I'm sure the train will come through again!
[11:05] Cecilia
    Yes, but...
[11:07] Momo
    I don't know for sure, but I
    think the train is there for you.
[11:11] Momo
    Please!

    Fairy Princess

    Minky Momo
[11:24] Sind
    You think it'll come?
[11:26] Pipil
    I hope it does.
[11:27] Mocha
    What will we do if it doesn't?
[11:29] Momo
    Oh, you two. Stop being so negative!
[11:32] Momo
    It will come, won't it, ma'am?
[11:35] Cecilia
    Yes, I'm sure it will!
[11:37] King
    They've been waiting for so long!
[11:40] King
    It's so frustrating!
[11:42] King
    Can't we set the video to ten-times speed?!
[11:45] Queen
    Don't forget, haste makes waste.
[11:47] Queen
    It's better if you watch it
    carefully at normal speed.
[11:51] King
    But... it's been hours!
[11:55] King
    Since then, the short hand was
    here, and the long hand was here,
[11:58] King
    and the short hand moves slow,
    and the long hand moves fast,
[12:02] King
    so all together it's...
[12:03] Queen
    You look so pathetic right now!
[12:06] King
    What did you say?
[12:08] Queen
    Honestly, what will I do with you?
[12:11] King
    Oh, look.
[12:14] Momo
    That sound!
[12:32] Cecilia
    The train...
[12:37] Cecilia
    It's running, just like it did back then!
[13:01] Momo
    Wh-What's going on?
[13:04] Sind
    Momo, look!
[13:09] Pipil
    That wasn't there last night!
[13:18] Momo
    Ma'am, what is all this?
[13:21] Momo
    Ma'am!
[13:24] Momo
    Ma'am!
[13:25] Pipil
    Ma'am!
[13:37] Momo
    Wait!
[13:39] Stationmaster
    Ticket, please.
[13:40] Momo
    Tickets? But...
[13:43] Stationmaster
    You can't board the train without a ticket.
[13:46] Momo
    But... I...
[13:48] Stationmaster
    Leave.
[13:50] Stationmaster
    This isn't a children's playground!
[13:52] Momo
    Fine!
[13:59] Pipil
    You're going to transform?
[14:00] Momo
    That's right.
[14:01] Momo
    Minky Momo doesn't just back off!
[14:07] Momo
    Pipiruma Pipiruma Puririnpa!
[14:09] Momo
    Papareho Papareho Doriminpa!
[14:11] Momo
    Become an old-fashioned station
    attendant with an adult touch!
[14:32] Momo
    How's this?
[14:33] Pipil
    Very nice!
[14:35] Mocha
    Lovely!
[14:36] Sind
    I see! It's perfect!
[14:40] Momo
    I'm heading out! See you later!
[14:43] Mocha
    Momo!
[14:48] Momo
    Good evening!
[14:50] Stationmaster
    Evening.
[14:52] Stationmaster
    What was that about?
[14:55] Momo
    Got it!
[15:00] Pipil
    It disappeared!
[15:01] Sind
    What's going on?
[15:09] All
    Momo!
[15:15] Momo
    Gosh, that's a relief.
[15:24] Momo
    I wonder where Cecilia is...
[15:26] Momo
    Oh?
[15:35] Momo
    C-Cecilia!
[15:47] Cecilia
    Mark...
[15:51] Cecilia
    Mark.
[15:52] Mark
    Cecilia!
[15:54] Mark
    Cecilia...
[15:56] Cecilia
    I made it.
[15:57] Cecilia
    I got on the train, like I promised I would.
[15:59] Mark
    Cecilia. I always knew you'd come.
[16:45] Pipil
    Momo! Momo!
[16:47] Sind
    Momo!
[16:54] Momo
    Wh-Where am I?
[17:03] Momo
    Oh? What am I doing here?
[17:05] Sind
    We don't know!
[17:07] Sind
    We were watching the train
    pull away and then passed out!
[17:11] Pipil
    It was morning when we came to!
[17:13] Mocha
    We were sleeping here!
[17:16] Momo
    What could have happened?
[17:18] Momo
    Me getting on the train last
    night wasn't a dream, was it?
[17:23] Momo
    Where's Cecilia?
[17:26] Mocha
    When we woke up, we were the only ones here.
[17:37] Momo
    Cecilia!
[17:45] Momo
    She's okay, right? She
    made it home safe, right?
[17:54] Momo
    Ma'am!
[17:56] Cecilia
    I'm coming!
[18:00] Momo
    Thank goodness!
[18:02] Cecilia
    What is it?
[18:03] Momo
    Ma'am!
[18:05] Momo
    You made it home safe?
[18:06] Cecilia
    W-Wait just a minute...
[18:08] Cecilia
    Who are you, dearie?
[18:10] Momo
    Oh, come on! It's me, Momo!
[18:13] Cecilia
    What are you talking about?
[18:15] Cecilia
    I've never met you before, dearie.
[18:19] Momo
    B-But... last night, you got on the
    train through the flowers, didn't you?
[18:24] Cecilia
    A train hasn't run through
    those flowers in sixty years.
[18:30] Mark
    What is it, Cecilia?
[18:32] Cecilia
    Oh, Mark.
[18:33] Cecilia
    The little girl here...
[18:34] Momo
    M-Mark?
[18:36] Momo
    Mark, who went to Paris?
[18:38] Mark
    Yes, we went there. Together.
[18:40] Momo
    T-Together?
[18:44] Mark
    But little girl, why do
    you know so much about us?
[18:48] Momo
    W-Well, I just...
[18:51] Boy
    Grandma, Mama says we should let the girl in.
[18:54] Cecilia
    That's a good idea.
[18:55] Cecilia
    Today's our 60th anniversary, you see.
[18:59] Mark
    Feel free to celebrate it with us.
[19:03] Momo
    Okay!
[19:04] Mocha
    What's going on?
[19:06] Sind
    I don't know.
[19:11] King
    What happened?
[19:13] Queen
    Cecilia got on the train and redid
    her past from 60 years prior.
[19:18] King
    No way! You can't change the past!
[19:21] King
    Certainly not in one night!
[19:23] King
    It's not possible.
[19:24] Queen
    I'm sure her strong hopes and dreams
    about getting on the train that night
[19:30] Queen
    allowed her to call back that
    train from sixty years ago.
[19:35] King
    Most people wouldn't be capable of that.
[19:37] Queen
    Yes, but Momo was there.
[19:40] Queen
    The Momo in the gems may have the power
    to make people's dreams a reality.
[19:47] Queen
    Even though she may not realize it herself.
[19:49] King
    Powered-up Momo?
[19:51] King
    How mysterious. Although...
[19:53] Queen
    What is it, darling?
[19:55] King
    I feel sad for the father
    losing his daughter.
[19:58] Queen
    There's nothing to be done about that.
[20:00] Queen
    Children are meant to
    leave the nest some day.
[20:03] King
    That's right.
[20:05] King
    But can't you understand how a
    father feels about his daughter?
[20:09] Queen
    Are you worrying about Momo?
[20:11] King
    Well, well...
[20:13] Queen
    You only have to worry about
    that after Momo grows up.
[20:16] Queen
    Though having said that, I
    know Momo is no longer our...
[20:19] King
    Now, now. Calm down, darling.
[20:21] King
    Let's leave that talk aside,
[20:23] King
    and focus on the happy ending!
[20:29] Boy
    Now, let's toast to grandma and
    grandpa's 60 years together!
[20:34] Boy
    Cheers!
[20:35] All
    Cheers!
[20:37] Momo
    Happy anniversary!
[20:42] Cecilia
    Momo, I've been thinking...
[20:45] Boy
    "I'm so glad I got on that train that night."
[20:48] Boy
    Grandma, we've heard that
    story so many times.
[20:51] Cecilia
    Oh, really?
