[00:07] Remlin
    So, what do you want me to draw and where?
[00:10] Rudo
    Hey!
[00:11] Rudo
    Hey!
[00:12] Rudo
    What's with the facepaint?!
[00:18] Rudo
    What's so funny?!
[00:21] Rudo
    Hey! You listening to me?!
[00:21] Enjin
    I'm starting to get a handle on what
    kind of person ends up as the spellcaster.
[00:24] Remling
    Sorry, sorry...
[00:25] Rudo
    Stop laughing! Stop laughing, damn it!
[00:26] Enjin
    New one feels a lot like the old one.
[00:28] Mayor
    Their whimsy is unstoppable.
[00:34] Remlin
    Let's start over. I'm Remlin.
[00:36] Remlin
    As the new spellcaster, I hope to p—
[00:39] Remlin
    I mean, work well with you!
[00:41] Rudo
    Did you almost say "play"?
[00:42] Enjin
    How many spellcasters
    have there been, anyway?
[00:44] Mayor
    I believe Remlin would be the sixth.
[00:47] Enjin
    You believe?
[00:49] Mayor
    They tell their histories through art,
    not the written word.
[00:56] Remlin
    So, hey, there's this thing I noticed.
[00:59] Remlin
    When I draw on a person, the power doesn't
    work right if I don't have their consent.
[01:05] Remlin
    Outside of town, I usually get permission
    before I draw on the walls,
[01:08] Remlin
    so it's probably the same thing.
[01:10] Remlin
    I figure if you need permission
    to draw on walls and objects,
[01:13] Remlin
    it goes double for people, right?
[01:17] Enjin
    That's how it was with Gob, yeah.
[01:19] Enjin
    Do spellcasters get the same
    abilities as their predecessors?
[01:22] Mayor
    I've heard their powers have
    historically been similar.
[01:26] Mayor
    But you sometimes see subtle differences.
[01:29] Mayor
    Everyone has their own way of using things,
    their own experiences and ideas.
[01:34] Mayor
    Makes sense that everyone's ability
    would take a different shape,
[01:39] Mayor
    but if it's the same each generation,
    I guess it's the vital instrument that's spec—
[01:42] Remlin
    Nah, that's not it.
[01:44] Remlin
    It turns out the same 'cause we all bring
    a real sense of play to our drawing.
[01:48] Remlin
    We draw balloons in a stressful scene
    or flowers in a combat scene...
[01:52] Remlin
    We sneak all kinds of meaning
    into our drawings to play around.
[02:00] Remlin
    "Freedom and play"...
[02:01] Remlin
    I think those are the factors Gob and
    those before him were chosen for.
[02:05] Remlin
    I'll probably choose someone like that too.
[02:08] Remlin
    I love it!
[02:10] Enjin
    Yeah, I don't get it.
[02:12] Enjin
    So what it comes down to is,
[02:14] Enjin
    you end up with similar powers
    because you think the same way?
[02:18] Remlin
    We don't think the same way!
[02:20] Remlin
    We all draw whatever
    we want to in the moment!
[02:23] Remlin
    What we end up drawing is different, too!
[02:29] Mayor
    Lay off, Enjin.
[02:31] Mayor
    If you try to go too deep
    into conversation with an artist,
[02:33] Mayor
    you'll just end up more confused.
[02:34] Rudo
    Enjin's bothered by it.
[02:39] Remlin
    You want me to draw "reduce damage
    from one major hit" on your body, right?
[02:44] Remlin
    Coming right up!
[02:51] Enjin
    H-H-H-Hey!
[02:54] Enjin
    You're tattooing it?!
[02:55] Mayor
    Remlin. Take this serious—
[02:59] Mayor
    Wait, what?
[03:00] Mayor
    You turned the instrument into a brush before.
[03:04] Mayor
    What's with that shape?
[03:06] Remlin
    I was just thinking it'd make a cool tattoo,
    and it turned into this.
[03:09] Remlin
    It's good to have options, right?
[03:12] Enjin
    Hey, you kidding me?
[03:14] Enjin
    Not only can you cast spells,
    you can also create any tool you want?!
[03:19] Enjin
    You're terrifying!
[03:23] Remlin
    Fine, fine. No tattoos.
[03:26] Remlin
    But if I just draw it on,
    it'll wash off in water, right?
[03:29] Remlin
    So let's do this right.
[03:35] Remlin
    I can scribb—I mean,
    cast a spell on your body, right?
[03:41] Rudo
    This kid never stops.
[03:43] Enjin
    This kid's kinda growing on me.
[03:53] Enjin
    Thanks for the help. Mr. Mayor, Remlin.
[03:56] Mayor
    Well, I'm sorry for the runaround.
[04:00] Mayor
    I think drawing on nine people
    really took a toll on the kid.
[04:05] Enjin
    You did good work for a first time.
[04:08] Enjin
    Thanks a lot.
[04:20] Man B
    What's going on here, Mr. Mayor?!
[04:22] Man B
    You can't pass the pen to some no-name brat!
[04:24] Man A
    It should go to someone more worthy!
[04:27] Rudo
    The guys who couldn't come in.
[04:29] Man B
    I won the Perfect Art Contest!
[04:34] Man B
    Tons of people were counting on me
    to become the new spellcaster.
[04:38] Man B
    That's why I came all the way out here,
    and this is how you treat me?!
[04:42] Man B
    Canvas Town's really gone downhill!
[04:44] Man A
    Anyway, I'm a better art—
[04:47] Mayor
    Shut up!
[04:49] Mayor
    Your shitty attitude is the reason
    you can't even enter the city!
[04:53] Mayor
    We don't need posers who call themselves
    artists but only care about fame!
[04:58] Mayor
    Get that through your heads and make tracks!
[05:01] Mayor
    No one wants to look at your ugly faces!
[05:07] Enjin
    Man, the mayor's always scary when he's mad.
[05:17] Enjin
    See you guys.
[05:19] Enjin
    Don't get so mad that
    you pop a blood vessel, okay?
[05:22] Mayor
    Sorry.
[05:24] Remlin
    Just stay away from the gate, Mr. Mayor.
[05:28] Rudo
    Thanks. I'm glad I saw all that.
[05:31] Rudo
    I'll be back.
[05:34] Remlin
    I'll come to draw at Cleaner HQ someday too!
[05:39] Remlin
    Bye-bee!
[05:50] Rudo
    Are we going back to Cleaner HQ?
[05:53] Enjin
    Yeah. To get your full-face.
[05:58] Enjin
    But first, Rudo...
[06:00] Enjin
    Let's pick you up a treat.
[06:04] Rudo
    A treat?
[06:11] Rudo
    H-Hey...
[06:13] Rudo
    You sure?
[06:15] Enjin
    Never hurts to be prepared,
    so pick out a few things that sing to you.
[06:20] Enjin
    We're far from the polluted zones,
    so no trash beasts here.
[06:24] Enjin
    Take some time and pick out what you—
[06:33] Rudo
    Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!
[06:35] Rudo
    Awesome!
[06:36] Enjin
    He really loves this stuff, huh?
[08:30] August
    It's done!
[08:31] August
    Hell yeah, it's done!
[08:33] August
    It's done! I did it!
[08:36] August
    I freaking did it!
[08:38] Rudo
    Who's that?
[08:39] Semiu
    Hey, you're here. Welcome back.
[08:43] Semiu
    We got word about what
    happened in Canvas Town.
[08:47] Semiu
    I'm sorry to hear about—
[08:48] August
    Hey there!
[08:50] August
    Your mask's ready!
[08:53] Enjin
    Oh, that guy.
[08:56] Enjin
    That's August. He makes the Cleaners' gear.
[09:01] Enjin
    Looks like he finished your full-face, Rudo.
[09:04] August
    Yeah! It's freaking finished!
[09:07] August
    It came out perfect, man!
[09:09] August
    We didn't have time to meet up, but I got
    his measurements while he was asleep,
[09:13] August
    so it should just fit!
[09:15] August
    And Enjin and Semiu told me
    about his personality,
[09:19] August
    so I made some choices
    to max out the cool factor!
[09:22] Rudo
    Wait a minute.
[09:23] Rudo
    He got my measurements...
    while I was asleep?
[09:26] August
    Lucky me that you didn't lock your room!
[09:30] Rudo
    You asshole!
[09:32] Enjin
    Sphereites don't lock their doors?
[09:34] Riyo
    Man, and Rudo doesn't sleep that much.
[09:37] Riyo
    It takes real skill to
    catch him when he's asleep!
[09:40] Zanka
    Riyo, how do you know that?
[09:42] Eishia
    Big brother!
[09:44] August
    Hey, li'l sis!
[09:46] Eishia
    You need to stop doing this!
[09:48] Eishia
    Stop causing trouble for everyone!
[09:52] August
    Huh? What was that?!
[09:54] Eishia
    And please keep your voice down.
[09:55] August
    What was that?!
[09:56] Eishia
    Please!
[09:57] August
    Eishia, sweetie! You here?
[09:58] Rudo
    They're siblings?
[10:00] Eishia
    I am!
[10:00] August
    Where are you? Hey!
[10:01] Eishia
    I'm right here!
[10:11] Rudo
    Man. What's with Ground people
    shouting all the time?
[10:16] Enjin/Zanka
    You're one to talk.
[10:18] Enjin
    Right. Rudo.
[10:20] Enjin
    Take off your choker a minute.
[10:31] Rudo
    Wh-What are you—
[10:35] Enjin
    Go on. Hold out the choker.
[10:44] Enjin
    "Choker." It's like a communicator...
[10:48] Enjin
    Kind of like a phone.
[10:49] Enjin
    You can talk through it to people
    you've traded blood with.
[10:53] Rudo
    Is that why Ground people all wear
    these things around your necks?
[10:58] Riyo
    And trading blood gives it a real
    friends-to-the-end feel, right?
[11:01] Follo
    Contact us any time, Rudo.
[11:04] Rudo
    Sure...
[11:07] Rudo
    What tech is this?
[11:09] Rudo
    Wait. It's not another Giver power, is it?
[11:13] Enjin
    Anyway...
[11:16] Enjin
    We'll be taking some of your blood too!
[11:25] Enjin
    At last, we're off to No Man's Land
    to find the lady!
[11:29] Enjin
    That said...
[11:31] Enjin
    You don't think you brought
    a little too much trash?
[11:34] Enjin
    We'll have to walk at some point.
[11:36] Enjin
    Just take what you can carry.
[11:39] Rudo
    It's all backups.
[11:41] Enjin
    It'll be your second time
    in a No Man's Land, I guess.
[11:45] Enjin
    The trouble's going to start
    the second we arrive.
[11:48] Enjin
    Better be ready.
[12:02] Enjin
    Penta, the desert No Man's Land.
[12:07] Enjin
    Now that's exciting.

[12:20] Tamsy
    Sand? No...
[12:23] Tamsy
    Waste matter worn down to dust?
[12:34] Enjin
    And here they come.
[12:37] Enjin
    Witness reports say the woman
    should live further in.
[12:42] Enjin
    Make sure you keep up, Rudo.
[12:46] Rudo
    That's the plan.
[12:50] Enjin
    Use those gloves—3R—to beat them down,
[12:58] Enjin
    then we'll go find the woman.
[13:03] Delmon
    Let's start with some warm-ups!
[13:05] Tamsy
    This might be fun.
[13:13] (Flashback) August
    Get it?!
[13:15] (Flashback) August
    In a No Man's Land, first,
    you put on the half-mask!
[13:19] (Flashback) August
    You connect it to your oxygen tank!
[13:23] (Flashback) August
    You put the mask on overtop and...
[13:26] (Flashback) August
    You got yourself a full-face!

[13:47] Jabber
    Penta, the desert No Man's Land?
[13:50] Jabber
    Is that where it is, boss?
[13:53] Jabber
    The other one...
[13:59] Zodyl
    You'll see when you go.
[14:06] Tomme
    Okay, let's get this down.
[14:10] Tomme
    First trash beast encountered upon
    arrival in No Man's Land Penta.
[14:13] Tomme
    Shape was "scorpion-like."
[14:15] Tomme
    Appearance and thickness of exoskeleton
    suggest attacks like a scorpion.
[14:20] Tomme
    Pincer and tail attacks presumed...
[14:24] Tomme
    There.
[15:01] Zanka
    Hey, I didn't do it.
[15:07] Zanka
    Sheesh, keep it down.
[16:16] Enjin
    Octashredder!
[16:41] Enjin
    Missed one, huh?
[16:44] Enjin
    Up to you now.
SIGN    "Asshole"
[17:52] Enjin
    Lots of those scorpion trash beasts.
[17:56] Enjin
    For them to come out on the surface suggests
[17:58] Enjin
    a whole lot of trash buried
    beneath this sand-like stuff.
[18:06] Gris
    Tomme!
[18:07] Gris
    Your record-keeping duties are important,
    but do them after combat's over!
[18:11] Gris
    That was so dangerous!
[18:13] Tomme
    I know I should,
[18:14] Tomme
    but if I'd waited, I'd probably forget.
[18:19] Tomme
    Besides, your job here in No-Man's Land
    is to protect the record-keeper, right?
[18:24] Tomme
    I trust you guys.
[18:25] Gris
    Still, have some self-preservation instinct!
[18:46] Rudo
    Is there something there?
[18:49] Delmon
    Hey, there you are!
[18:55] Rudo
    Delmon! Tamsy!
[18:57] Tamsy
    That kicked up a lot of sand, eh?
[18:59] Tamsy
    We almost lost sight of you.
[19:00] Delmon
    You did good back there, Rudo!
[19:04] Delmon
    I only wish I could've seen you in action!
[19:08] Tamsy
    I'm sure we will soon enough.
[19:10] Delmon
    Yeah, but still!
[19:12] Rudo
    I'm glad. I managed to be
    a little useful this time.
[19:12] Tamsy
    Well, next time, try to stay close...
[19:28] Amo
    Yes... of course that's how it is...
[19:35] Amo
    You came here to see Amo, didn't you?
[19:44] Tamsy
    How long...
[19:47] Tamsy
    How long has that woman been there?
[19:50] Delmon
    I know it's hard to see around here,
    but I couldn't sense her either!
[19:56] Rudo
    Wait. Could she be...
[19:59] Enjin
    Think she's the one we're looking for?
[20:03] Zanka
    Nah, no way it's that easy.
[20:06] Enjin
    She doesn't seem hostile to me, at least.
[20:09] Enjin
    Maybe we should ask for directions?
[20:12] Riyo
    Hey!
[20:14] Riyo
    You the one who's seen people coming
    and going from the Sphere and the Ground?!
[20:18] Zanka
    Show some manners!
[20:22] Amo
    Oh, yes, indeed!
[20:24] Riyo
    See? She's the woman we've been looking for!
[20:29] Enjin
    Well... Guess we got lucky.
[20:33] Enjin
    Let's talk to her and get go—
[20:35] Amo
    Excuse me.
[20:37] Amo
    It stinks out here.
    It's not good for the lungs.
[20:41] Amo
    Perhaps any talking should
    be done at Amo's house?
[20:45] Amo
    Masks won't be needed there.
[20:49] Zanka
    Why didn't she bring a mask, then?
[20:51] Amo
    It's such a short walk!
[20:54] Amo
    Okay? Okay?
[20:56] Riyo
    Enjin.
[20:57] Riyo
    Why don't I go and ask her what's what?
[21:02] Enjin
    Nah, we should all go.
[21:04] Enjin
    Even if she's plotting something,
    I'd prefer to talk it out.
[21:10] Enjin
    If we end up in a fight anyway,
    I'll take her on.
[21:14] Riyo
    Hey, you sure?
[21:16] Enjin
    I can hold back the best.
[21:57] Rudo
    No way...
[22:02] Rudo
    How...
