[00:03] Mymo
    Hey, hey, hey!
[00:04] Mymo
    Good afternoon!
[00:06] Mymo
    Ordinary people,
    this is your newscaster, Mymo!
[00:10] Mymo
    Yeah, yeah, yeah!
[00:11] Mymo
    Let's get grooving to that weather forecast!
[00:12] Enjin
    Why do I always have to drive, you ask?
[00:13] Mymo
    Keep an eye on that baby!
[00:15] Mymo
    We'll start with the southern region
[00:15] Enjin
    If anyone else drives, we all fall asleep.
[00:18] Mymo
    where we'll be having a little rain from
    evening through the night, baby.
[00:19] Enjin
    Gris's driving is the most dangerous of all.
[00:21] Mymo
    Don't forget an umbrella
    on your way back from work, bro.
[00:21] Enjin
    It's so pleasant, we wouldn't notice
    if we went off a cliff.
[00:25] Mymo
    No problems around Kamuatari District,
    where the cloudy skies continue.
[00:30] Delmon
    You're driving too rough, Enjin!
[00:30] Mymo
    Next up, eastern region, yeah!
[00:32] Enjin
    Don't blame me! It's the ground's fault!
[00:33] Mymo
    We've known since last week that
    there's a big storm rolling your way.
[00:34] Riyo
    Ow, ow, ow...
[00:37] Mymo
    If the "cloud" passes over you,
[00:37] Rudo
    So Remlin's spell didn't
    cure all bumps and bruises?
[00:39] Mymo
    you've got a good chance
    of a trash storm headin' your way!
[00:42] Mymo
    Better get your shit together!
[00:42] Riyo
    Pretty sure it just cures the lethal stuff...
[00:45] Riyo
    That's what Remlin said too, right?
[00:48] Zanka
    Even though it's Tamsy
    that caused the worst of it.
[00:51] Zanka
    Necessary though it might've been.
[00:52] Tamsy
    I'm really sorry about that, okay?
[00:55] Enjin
    That's the risk you take
    when you enter a No Man's Land.
[00:58] Enjin
    We should probably get
    a proper doctor's checkup...
[01:01] Enjin
    Hey, there's one close by.
[01:12] Rudo
    This city...
[01:14] Rudo
    I feel like I've been here before.
[01:22] Rudo
    Then the doctor is...
[01:24] Rudo
    Don't tell me.
[01:28] Alice
    Hey, it's been a while!
[03:03] Alice
    Whadda you want?!
[03:04] Alice
    I'm working, here!
[03:07] Rudo
    Old ma...
[03:09] Rudo
    Woman.
[03:10] Alice
    You got that right, kiddo!
[03:12] Patient
    Shut up, lady!
[03:14] Patient
    My head's killing me!
[03:16] Patient
    Can't you treat me without shouting?
[03:18] Alice
    You're the one who's shouting!
[03:20] Alice
    You came here for my help,
    so shut up and let me do it!
[03:23] Alice
    Sheesh! I've got my grandkids
    here today, you know!
[03:27] Alice
    I deserve peace and quiet already!
[03:29] Alice
    There! All done!
[03:31] Alice
    Now pay up and get out!
[03:36] Patient
    I'll never come back, you old hag!
[03:38] Patient
    Stupid little...
[03:42] Enjin
    This is why you never get new patients.
[03:45] Alice
    Why should I change myself
    for whiners like that?!
[03:51] Enjin
    She's kinda cool.
[03:52] Riyo
    Enjin always stops by here
    when we're passing through, doesn't he?
[03:57] Zanka
    I think he likes the old weirdo.
[03:59] Enjin
    I do, but she's also awesome!
[04:04] Enjin
    She was a pioneer,
    the first to treat body pollution!
[04:08] Enjin
    She studied polluted objects
    to find a way to treat it,
[04:10] Enjin
    but she ended up working too close with them,
    and the shouting is an aftereffect.
[04:14] Rudo
    She's a scary lady in a few different ways.
[04:16] Alice
    Just call me by my name already!
[04:19] Alice
    My name is Alice!
[04:21] Alice
    Alice Stilza!
[04:23] Alice
    And don't you forget it!
[04:25] Rudo
    Kind of a cute name!
[04:27] Rudo
    Huh? Stilza?
[04:30] August
    Gramma! Gramma!
[04:33] August
    These sweets you made suck!
[04:37] Eishia
    Big Brother... You can't
    just say it like that...
[04:41] Eishia
    H-Huh? What are you...
[04:43] August
    Hey! What brings you guys here?!
[04:46] Rudo
    They're all related?!
[04:50] Eishia
    W-We sometimes stop by.
[04:53] Eishia
    Our parents are no longer with u—
[04:54] August
    They're dead as doornails!
[04:56] Eishia
    And I can learn about heali—
[04:57] August
    She's a brilliant-ass doc!
[04:59] Alice
    Hey, August!
[05:01] Alice
    If you hate my sweets that much,
    you can't have any more!
[05:04] August
    Face it, Gramma, they just suck!
[05:07] Alice
    You still ate them all!
[05:07] Enjin
    It's not the healthiest family dynamic.
[05:09] Eishia
    Big Brother...
[05:16] Eishia
    We've treated them all,
    so let's go home. I'm tired.
[05:20] August
    You guys got a car? Take us with you, yo!
[05:24] Eishia
    We came here on a motorcycle!
[05:26] Zanka
    A victim of the family dynamic.
[05:28] August
    How'd you guys like the No Man's Land?
[05:30] August
    And how's that mask I made treating you?!
[05:33] Alice
    Keep it down!
[05:35] Enjin
    It's a long story. Just read the report.
[05:38] August
    Boy, I don't like the sound of that!
[05:46] August
    Oh, right! The Cloud's passing by soon,
    so you'd better find shelter from the trash!
[05:52] Enjin
    We'll try.
[05:54] August
    Later, then!
[05:57] Zanka
    We'll probably hit it on our way back, yeah.
[06:02] Rudo
    "Cloud"?
SIGN    Episode 14
SIGN    The Storm Before the Storm
[06:24] Enjin
    The Sphere moves.
[06:27] Enjin
    As it does, sometimes it drops trash.
[06:31] Enjin
    It generally follows
    the same route all the time,
[06:34] Enjin
    so people create safe zones to avoid it,
[06:37] Enjin
    but with stuff falling from so high up,
    it's hard to be precise.
[06:40] Enjin
    There's no shortage of people
    who die from falling clutter.
[06:43] Tamsy
    Turns more and more people
    against the Sphere as a result.
[06:49] Tamsy
    Sadly, anyone who goes up to try to
    take their revenge is killed by the border.
[06:55] Riyo
    Yeah, it's a real mystery.
[06:59] Riyo
    How did Rudo and the "angels"
    get past the border?
[07:05] Rudo
    I don't know. But...
[07:08] Rudo
    I feel like I saw something.
[07:10] Tamsy
    "Something"? Like what?
[07:14] Rudo
    I don't know.
[07:16] Rudo
    My memories of that time are so fuzzy.
[07:19] Rudo
    But...
[07:46] Enjin
    Oh, it's mine.
[07:48] Enjin
    What is it?
[07:49] Semiu
    Enjin. Where are you now?
[07:50] Enjin
    Oh, Semiu?
[07:52] Enjin
    Heading back now.
[07:53] Enjin
    I can fill you in then.
[07:55] Semiu
    Please do.
[07:57] Semiu
    But you should go around
    the back way this time.
[08:01] Semiu
    We're dealing with a bit of an infestation.
[08:09] Rudo
    Back way? Infestation?
[08:12] Rudo
    What's that all about?
[08:23] Enjin
    That's the back way.
[08:28] Enjin
    Still, the idea of pests making it
    into the Cleaners is a laugh.
[08:32] Rudo
    What, you've got bugs or something?
[08:35] Enjin
    That's right!
[08:36] Enjin
    It's a breed of pests we call "marauders."
[08:44] Marauder A
    Right on target!
[08:46] Marauder A
    Since they're sheltering a Sphereite,
    I figured they'd have pretty awesome defenses,
[08:50] Marauder A
    but these Cleaner morons are wide open!
[08:52] Marauder B
    Stealing that Sphereite's
    gonna be a piece of cake!
[08:56] Rudo
    Marauders?
[08:59] Rudo
    That's bad! We have to
    get back and support them!
[09:02] Enjin
    With us on our way back
    from a No Man's Land, too.
[09:06] Enjin
    It's like insult to injury.
[09:07] Enjin
    Can't we catch a break already?!
[09:11] Marauder A
    Look alive, Cleaners!
[09:14] Marauder A
    If you don't want us putting an even bigger
    hole in your base, here's what you do...
[09:18] Marauder A
    Give us that Sphereite as a contribution!
[09:22] Marauder A
    If you don't, we'll burn
    your base to the ground!
[09:28] Semiu
    What a surprise.
[09:30] Semiu
    Pests like you know words like "contribution"?
[09:34] Semiu
    I'm not sure who baited you into this,
[09:37] Semiu
    but it's refreshing to see you
    attack in the open.
[09:41] Semiu
    Not that it would matter.
[09:45] Marauder A
    We like to fight fair!
[09:49] Marauder A
    Yeah, right.
[09:51] Marauder A
    We're just a distraction.
[09:53] Marauder A
    We've got a few guys working
    their way in right now!
[09:57] Marauder A
    Spare us the big talk, lady.
[10:00] Marauder A
    If you don't want another hole in
    your base, hand over the Sphereite!
[10:03] Semiu
    Oh, I'm not a woman.
[10:07] Semiu
    Just kidding. See how easily baited you are?
[10:12] Marauder A
    You bitch! Show some respe—
[10:14] Semiu
    Besides, are you sure you put
    a first hole in our base?
[10:19] Marauder A
    But that rocket...
[10:22] Marauder A
    Huh?!
[10:23] Marauder C
    H-Hey...
[10:26] Marauder A
    Hey. What are you guys doing?
[10:28] Marauder A
    I thought you were breaking in!
[10:30] Marauder C
    We couldn't get into the building
    no matter what we did!
[10:35] Semiu
    If you want to get in, you need permission...
[10:39] Semiu
    From the invincible shut-in.
[10:45] Shut-in
    They're attacking us again?
[10:48] Shut-in
    Terrifying...
[10:53] Semiu
    I'm sorry to say, though...
[10:55] Semiu
    You don't have that permission.
[10:59] Semiu
    So I'll need to run an extermination.
[11:02] Semiu
    Well? What will it be?
[11:05] Semiu
    Give me your best shot.
[11:09] Marauder A
    You asked for it, lady!
[11:11] Marauder A
    Take this!
[11:36] Marauder D
    You filthy Giver!
[11:52] Marauder E
    You...
[12:02] Marauder D
    S-So tough...
[12:06] Semiu
    If you want to fight me, you'd better be
    a little less predictable than that.
[12:13] Enjin
    Hey, now.
[12:15] Enjin
    You handled them yourself again?
[12:18] Enjin
    You're too good at this.
[12:19] Semiu
    They're just low-level punks.
[12:21] Semiu
    I'd never live it down if I lost.
[12:24] Semiu
    Now,
[12:26] Semiu
    who could be spreading word
    that we've got a Sphereite here?
[12:32] Semiu
    I think I can imagine.
[12:35] Enjin
    Agreed.
[12:37] Enjin
    In fact, I'd wager...
[12:40] Enjin
    they're about to start something.
[12:49] Man
    My name is...
[12:51] Man
    Well, never you mind.
[12:53] Man
    I'm just an old man
    with a taste for excellence.
[12:57] Man
    And at this excellent shop, Dan Dulse,
    I soothe the exhaustion of my day.
[13:03] Man
    Excellent food, excellent servers,
[13:07] Man
    regulars with excellent hair.
[13:10] Man
    A few new faces, too.
[13:13] Man
    It's so calming to be in a place like this.
[13:20] Man
    Or it would be, if they weren't here.
[13:26] Man
    They're regulars here too.
[13:29] Man
    Codependents called "Givers" who
    live their lives tied to a single object.
[13:34] Man
    Creeps me the hell out.
[13:37] Man
    The guy with the tattoos
    has a nasty look in his eye.
[13:40] Man
    That well-bred young man
    has a nasty look in his eye.
[13:42] Zanka
    Oh, that's Rudo's.
[13:45] Riyo
    Hey, yeah.
[13:45] Man
    That cutie pie also has
    a nasty look in her eye.
[13:48] Riyo
    Sorry, Rudo. I accidentally
    drank your drink.
[13:56] Man
    I've never seen such a nasty look in the eye!
[13:59] Man
    What's with that kid?
[14:01] Man
    He's about to blow a fuse!
[14:03] Man
    Is this what becomes of everyone
    who fight trash beasts?!
[14:08] Man
    It's terrifying!
[14:11] Man
    I'm leaving!
[14:12] Staff
    Come again!
[14:16] Rudo
    Riyo drank my...
[14:18] Enjin
    Took you long enough, man. Number two?
[14:22] Rudo
    What's with the constant
    dinner get-togethers, anyway?
[14:26] Rudo
    Our base just got attacked!
[14:29] Enijn
    You don't get it.
[14:30] Enijn
    It's important to take breaks.
[14:33] Riyo
    Yeah! When a job's over,
    we always grab a meal together.
[14:38] Zanka
    Just shut up and eat.
[14:40] Rudo
    But... shouldn't we be more alert?
[14:44] Gris
    I get what you're saying, Rudo.
[14:48] Gris
    But no matter how dire the situation,
[14:52] Gris
    food and fellowship will always
    spur us on for the next fight.
[14:55] Gris
    This isn't the first time
     we've been attacked, anyway.
[14:59] Enjin
    There's a ton of people
    in this world who want to beat down
[15:02] Enjin
    anyone more well-known
    or well-off than them.
[15:05] Zanka
    They're a creepy bunch.
[15:07] Zanka
    Better off dead.
[15:08] Rudo
    W-Wait, does Semiu drive off
    the marauders every time?
[15:13] Enjin
    Yes!
[15:15] Enjin
    You'd need some really out-there methods
    or powers to get past Semiu.
[15:21] Enjin
    And even if you did that,
    she'd probably just be impressed.
[15:25] Riyo
    Yeah, I bet she would!
[15:27] Rudo
    If she's that strong,
    why's she the base receptionist?
[15:31] Enjin
    Semiu's glasses, EYES,
    have the power of sight.
[15:34] Enjin
    They can't be used to beat trash beasts.
[15:38] Enjin
    And she says she always
    wanted to work in an office.
[15:41] Rudo
    That sounds like the main reason.
[15:44] Rudo
    So just because someone's a Giver
    doesn't mean they can beat trash beasts?
[15:49] Riyo
    It depends on the Giver's personality
    and how they treat their instrument.
[15:54] Riyo
    Those who care about using their precious
    thing to its fullest become attackers.
[15:59] Riyo
    Those who want to keep
    them intact and unscathed
[16:02] Riyo
    are more likely to become defenders.
[16:05] Rudo
    The worth you place on your object
    makes that much of a difference?
[16:10] Rudo
    Wow...
[16:11] Rudo
    I want to see more of other kinds of Givers.
[16:13] Riyo
    Oh? Oh? Are you even more intrigued?
[16:16] Enjin
    Don't worry. The folks on the way have
    a unique way with their instruments.
[16:22] Rudo
    Folks on the way?
[16:24] Guita
    Ta-dah!
[16:26] Guita
    I'm here at last, y'all!
[16:29] Guita
    Team Child...
[16:31] Guita
    has arrived!
[16:33] Bro
    Hey, there.
[16:35] Bro
    Sorry we're late, all.
[16:38] Enjin
    Heya.
[16:51] Rudo
    Back off, asshole! I'm not sharing today!
[16:55] Guita
    It's Rudo!
[16:57] Guita
    Been a while!
[17:00] Rudo
    Who're you?
[17:03] Guita
    You don't remember me?!
[17:06] Guita
    I was in the room when you
    first came to Cleaner HQ!
[17:11] Guita
    No way...
[17:14] Bro
    Sorry, haven't made introductions.
[17:17] Bro
    This here is Guita Hebby Fantasia.
[17:21] Bro
    I believe you've already met Dear Santa.
[17:26] Bro
    And I'm the leader of Child...
    rather, their supervisor, Bro Santa.
[17:32] Bro
    Child has other members,
    but I hope you'll try to get along.
[17:37] Guita
    Yeah! Let's get along!
[17:40] Guita
    Hey, hey!
[17:41] Guita
    Tell me what it's like topside!
[17:44] Rudo
    Hey, back off!
[17:46] Bro
    Guita, you shouldn't talk
    about that outside the base.
[17:50] Guita
    Huh? How come?
[17:52] Enjin
    There's people sniffing around about it.
[17:56] Enjin
    The pests from yesterday said
[17:59] Enjin
    they got their info about Rudo
    from "some strangers at the bar."
[18:04] Enjin
    Said they just walked up and handed it over.
[18:09] Enjin
    For free.
[18:13] Enjin
    I'm betting they wanted to
    get intel on Cleaner HQ's defenses
[18:16] Enjin
    without taking on any personal risk.
[18:19] Guita
    Hey, man! What's your favorite kaiju?!
[18:22] Rudo
    Do you have any sense of personal space?!
[18:24] Guita
    Rudo! C'mon, let's talk kaiju!
[18:26] Rudo
    Knock it off! Back off!
[18:28] Zanka
    Pretty sneaky approach.
[18:30] Riyo
    This feeling... I'm betting
    it's the Raiders again.
[18:34] Enjin
    Could be.
[18:36] Enjin
    I hear the current Raiders
    are very persistent.
[18:44] Rudo
    Darn it. They're all ridiculous.
[18:47] Rudo
    I told them to be more alert...
[18:50] Zodyl
    What's that? Is someone after you guys?
[18:54] Rudo
    Huh? I dunno.
[18:56] Rudo
    Bandits or something.
[18:58] Zodyl
    Bandits?
[18:59] Zodyl
    Are you talking about the Raiders?
[19:01] Zodyl
    That's a scary bunch to have after you.
[19:05] Zodyl
    I hear they're searching pretty hard
    for something these days.
[19:11] Zodyl
    Hey, you remember what it was?
[19:13] Cthoni
    I don't know.
[19:14] Zodyl
    Better be careful, kiddo.
[19:16] Zodyl
    Since the Raiders got their new boss,
[19:18] Zodyl
    they'll go to any lengths
    to get what they're after.
[19:22] Zodyl
    They've become quite
    a persistent bunch, I hear.
[19:26] Zodyl
    If you're not on your guard,
    they'll snatch up everything you've got.
[19:31] Zodyl
    Oh, right. I just remembered.
[19:33] Zodyl
    They're looking for something like these.
[19:48] Zodyl
    I'll give it to you for free...
[19:51] Zodyl
    The information
    that I'm the Raiders' leader.
[19:57] Mymo
    Hey, hey! Time for the weather report, yo!
[20:02] Mymo
    Like I've been saying all week,
    that big storm is on the way!
[20:07] Mymo
    It's a trash storm!
[20:08] Zodyl
    It's important to always check
    the weather report.
[20:09] Mymo
    Stay inside and wait for it to pass, c'mon!
[20:12] Mymo
