**[01:35] Gintoki**
Why do I have to wander around town
to the point where I'm starving?
**[01:40] Gintoki**
Stupid Kagura...
**[01:42] Kagura**
How can you let a growing girl go three
days on less than four pints of rice?!
**[01:47] Kagura**
Why don't we have any work?
**[01:49] Kagura**
We wouldn't have to go hungry
if you worked every day!
**[01:53] Kagura**
Go find work right now!
**[01:56] Kagura**
I won't let you inside the house
until you've found a job!
**[01:59] Gintoki**
Easy for you to say.
**[02:01] Gintoki**
We're in a global recession, you know.
**[02:04] Gintoki**
It's not my fault that I can't find any work.
**[02:07] Gintoki**
And she eats way too much.
**[02:09] Hasegawa**
Hey, Gin-san!
**[02:10] Gintoki**
It's you.
**[02:12] Hasegawa**
Man, that's pretty impressive.
**[02:13] Hasegawa**
Like you can pull it off when
you put your mind to it?
**[02:15] ---**
Huh?
**[02:16] Hasegawa**
To be honest, I'm in a tight
situation right now.
**[02:18] Hasegawa**
So how about it?
**[02:19] Hasegawa**
Give me a little assistance or charity?
**[02:23] Gintoki**
Huh?
**[02:25] Hasegawa**
Stop trying to dodge the question!
**[02:27] Hasegawa**
You don't have to act like you're all that
**[02:28] Hasegawa**
because you're raking it in, Gin-san!
**[02:31] Gintoki**
Huh?!
**[02:32] Gintoki**
What are you even talking about?
**[02:33] Gintoki**
When did I start raking it in?!
**[02:35] Hasegawa**
Don't play dumb!
**[02:37] Hasegawa**
I was at Hello Work when
I heard the crazy rumors!
***SIGN*** [Note: Hello Work is a Japanese unemployment office.]
**[02:40] Hasegawa**
Odd Jobs is red-hot!
**[02:43] Hasegawa**
They're talking about how you're
fast, cheap, and nice!
**[02:44] Hasegawa**
And cool to boot!
**[02:48] Gintoki**
What?!
**[02:50] Gintoki**
What's this?
**[02:51] Gintoki**
Odd Jobs...Kingon?

**[03:02] Shinpachi**
Who are these people?!
**[03:04] Shinpachi**
What's with their similar name?!
**[03:06] Shinpachi**
What is this?!
**[03:07] Shinpachi**
They're interfering with our business!
**[03:09] Kagura**
It's their fault that I've eaten less than
four pints of rice over the past week!
**[03:13] Gintoki**
Still...
**[03:15] Gintoki**
They're more popular,
**[03:17] Gintoki**
so we can't really do anything about it.
**[03:19] Shinpachi**
Is it okay for the original
to lose to the copycat?!
**[03:21] Shinpachi**
At this rate, they'll be considered
the real ones!
**[03:25] Shinpachi**
We'll be buried in the annals of history!
**[03:27] Shinpachi**
Are you okay with that?!
**[03:29] Gintoki**
Isn't that how history works?
**[03:32] Gintoki**
These days, nobody cares about
where something originated.
**[03:35] Shinpachi**
What are you talking about?!
**[03:37] Shinpachi**
We cannot accept such dark history!
**[03:42] Kagura**
Besides, it was Gin-chan's original idea to
use this particular incarnation of Odd Jobs.
**[03:48] Kagura**
This would be a big deal if
it was the Mouse Kingdom!
***SIGN*** [Note: Mouse Kingdom refers to Disneyland and the strict Disney copyright.]
**[03:51] Shinpachi**
This must be it.
**[04:03] Kagura**
They look kinda cool.
**[04:05] Shinpachi**
They're pretending to be celebrities.
**[04:07] Shinpachi**
Leader, captain, support, mascot?
***SIGN*** [Note: Equivalent to the roles Gintoki, Kagura, Shinpachi and Sadaharu fill.]
**[04:12] Shinpachi**
Leader.
**[04:13] Shinpachi**
Name and age are a secret.
**[04:14] Shinpachi**
Sorry.
**[04:15] Shinpachi**
Height: Around 180 cm.
**[04:17] Shinpachi**
Weight: Never ask a guy his weight.
**[04:19] Shinpachi**
Hobby: To become the wind.
**[04:20] Shinpachi**
Special talent: Abacus, third level.
**[04:23] Shinpachi**
I can touch my nose with
tip of my tongue.
**[04:25] Shinpachi**
What? That's creepy.
**[04:26] Kagura**
Check the captain.
**[04:29] Kagura**
I'm the captain.
**[04:31] Kagura**
My height and weight are like a model's.
**[04:33] Kagura**
Like, duh, of course.
**[04:36] Kagura**
Hobby: Like, being all popular
and loved and stuff?
**[04:39] Kagura**
Special talent: Like, duh, I have talents?
**[04:43] Kagura**
This cell phone novel-like
text is pissing me off!
***SIGN*** [Note: Cell phone novels are written in text messages
by young Japanese girls. They often speak in slang.]
**[04:46] Shinpachi**
They even have a blog.
**[04:50] Shinpachi**
Let's talk about what really happens
every now and then.
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of #138 title, "Why Not Talk About the Old Days for a Change?"]
**[04:53] Shinpachi**
X month, X day.
**[04:55] Shinpachi**
A sudden job led to a
surprising encounter.
**[04:57] Shinpachi**
Can't reveal the name, but
it was someone famous.
**[04:59] Shinpachi**
Once we heard the circumstances, we
were determined to accept the job.
**[05:02] Shinpachi**
We're grateful for the opportunity
to meet this person.
**[05:06] Shinpachi**
X month, X day.
**[05:07] Shinpachi**
We had to go overseas rather
suddenly for that previous job.
**[05:10] Shinpachi**
We're grateful to the members
of the staff.
**[05:15] Shinpachi**
X month, X day.
**[05:16] Shinpachi**
Problem solved.
**[05:17] Shinpachi**
The client gave us champagne
as a thank you gift.
**[05:18] Shinpachi**
We're grateful for the heartwarming
comments.
**[05:20] Shinpachi**
What's with all the self-adoration here?
**[05:23] Shinpachi**
Isn't this person a little confused?
**[05:25] Shinpachi**
Our Odd Jobs range from cleaning
gutters to looking for lost kittens.
**[05:29] Shinpachi**
Or helping old ladies with their shopping.
**[05:30] Shinpachi**
It's honest work.
**[05:32] Shinpachi**
All behind the scenes.
**[05:33] Kagura**
This person's pretending
to be a celebrity!
**[05:35] Shinpachi**
I can't forgive such an act!
**[05:37] Shinpachi**
I'm going to find these people
who have no shame!
**[05:41] Shinpachi**
The fakes' office is up ahead.
**[05:44] Girl**
I'm so glad we went to the Odd Jobs.
**[05:47] Guy**
Told you so.
**[05:49] Guy**
Nothing to worry about if we
let Odd Jobs handle it.
**[05:51] Girl**
And we even got this beautiful vase.
***SIGN*** [Note: It's a common scam trick in Japan to sell a vase to a troubled person saying it will change their luck.]
**[05:54] Guy**
And your fate is no longer
tied my ancestors.
***SIGN*** [Note: STEP=Society for Testing English Proficiency.]
**[05:57] Girl**
And I can easily pass
the 4th grade STEP.
**[05:59] Girl**
And it only cost half a year's salary.
**[06:02] Gintoki**
H-H-H-Half a year?!
**[06:05] Shinpachi**
No, that's not what you should
be excited about.
**[06:08] Kagura**
People that stupid can still
be in a relationship?!
**[06:12] Shinpachi**
No, that's not it either.
**[06:16] Shinpachi**
That's an expensive-looking
office building.
**[06:18] Kagura**
They must be raking in the cash
with their fishy business.
**[06:21] Gintoki**
Shinpachi... Kagura...
**[06:25] Gintoki**
We're taking them down.
**[06:26] Shinpachi**
We can't allow these imposters
to have their way.
**[06:29] Kagura**
Time to lay the smackdown.
**[06:31] Gintoki**
Let's go!
**[06:37] Gintoki**
They're on the second floor!
**[06:39] Gintoki**
Let's see what these fakes look like!
**[06:47] Shinpachi**
K-Kanemaru-kun!

**[07:04] Gintoki**
Who are you?
***SIGN*** [The End]
**[07:10] Shinpachi**
Gin-san. Kagura-chan.
**[07:12] Shinpachi**
Listen to this!
**[07:13] Shinpachi**
I was walking along,
**[07:15] Shinpachi**
when these high school girls looked
at my face and laughed!
**[07:17] Shinpachi**
Is there something funny
about my face?!
**[07:19] Shinpachi**
Is it strange?!
**[07:20] Shinpachi**
Is there something on my face?!
**[07:21] Shinpachi**
Don't you think it's rude to laugh?!
**[07:28] Shinpachi**
Gin-san?
**[07:31] Shinpachi**
Kagura-chan?
**[07:38] Shinpachi**
Man, where did they run off to?
**[07:47] Shinpachi**
What? They're in there, huh?
**[07:57] Blue**
H-Hey, big guy.
**[07:58] Blue**
Can you pull my arm?
**[08:00] Blue**
I'm stuck.
**[08:02] Blue**
I'm telling you to pull my arm.
**[08:04] Blue**
Hurry it up.
**[08:05] Shinpachi**
Ah, yes!
**[08:06] Blue**
Ow! Ow! Ow!
**[08:08] Blue**
That hurts, you damn fool!
**[08:10] Blue**
Forget it.
**[08:11] Blue**
I'll get out by myself.
***SIGN***
**[08:14] Blue**
Young people these days don't even know
how to pull someone out of a desk.
**[08:19] Shinpachi**
Uh? How to pull someone out of a desk?
**[08:23] Shinpachi**
No. Most people wouldn't
know how to do that.
**[08:26] Blue**
Get me some tea, big guy.
**[08:28] Shinpachi**
Huh?
**[08:29] Blue**
I'm telling you to get me some tea!
**[08:31] Blue**
This place doesn't provide its
guests with any service?
**[08:33] Shinpachi**
Ah, right away.
**[08:49] Shinpachi**
Who is that?
***SIGN*** ["People Who Die Stay Dead"]
**[09:02] Blue**
What's that?
**[09:03] Blue**
Some high school girls said you
were gross and disgusting?
**[09:06] Shinpachi**
No, it wasn't that bad.
**[09:08] Shinpachi**
They were just laughing at me...
**[09:10] Shinpachi**
Though on second thought, it could
have been in a good way.
**[09:13] Shinpachi**
Like, "Oh, He's so cute! Whee!"
**[09:16] Blue**
Are you a moron?
**[09:18] Shinpachi**
A moron?
**[09:19] Blue**
Like hell that would happen.
**[09:21] Blue**
Keep your eyes wide open
and look straight ahead.
**[09:23] Blue**
In what universe would any high school girls
laugh at you in such a romantic way?
**[09:28] Blue**
You're deluding yourself.
**[09:29] Blue**
Gross! Disgusting! Four-eyes!
**[09:31] Shinpachi**
Why do I have to be insulted
for my glasses?
**[09:34] Shinpachi**
Uh, can I ask something?
**[09:37] Blue**
What's up?
**[09:38] Shinpachi**
Who are you?
**[09:41] Blue**
Me?
**[09:42] Blue**
I'm a robot from the future.
**[09:44] Shinpachi**
A robot?!
**[09:45] Blue**
You're going to have a sad and sorry future
at this rate, so I came to help ya.
**[09:53] Shinpachi**
I'll ask just because I have a feeling the conversation
would end if I just accepted that,
**[09:58] Shinpachi**
but what does this sad
and sorry future entail?
**[10:00] Blue**
A sad and sorry future would
be sad and sorry.
**[10:03] Blue**
Yeah...
**[10:04] Blue**
You're wearing glasses, which means
your eyes are bad, right?
**[10:08] Shinpachi**
Well, yeah...
**[10:10] Blue**
Plus, you don't know how to be
considerate and fail at sports.
**[10:13] Blue**
Most people with those
circumstances have bad luck.
**[10:16] Blue**
No looks, no brains, no luck.
**[10:17] Blue**
Sad and sorry enough as
it is, but if it gets worse...
**[10:22] Blue**
I can't bear to tell you.
**[10:25] Blue**
So one of your descendants
ordered me to help you out.
**[10:31] Blue**
Which is why I'm here when
I didn't really want to come.
**[10:38] Blue**
By the way, big guy.
**[10:40] Blue**
You're not being considerate enough.
**[10:42] Shinpachi**
What do you mean?
**[10:43] Blue**
This right here!
**[10:44] Blue**
I ask for some tea and
that's all you bring?
**[10:46] Blue**
You're supposed to offer a snack, too.
**[10:49] Blue**
Yeah, you know what I mean?
**[10:51] Blue**
The one with red bean sandwiched between
two spongy pancake-like things?
**[10:59] Blue**
In any case,
**[11:00] Blue**
bring me some damn dorayaki!
***SIGN*** [Note: Dorayaki is Doraemon's favorite food.]
**[11:05] Shinpachi**
Ah, he said it.
**[11:07] Shinpachi**
Here you are.
**[11:07] Blue**
This is what I'm talking about!
**[11:17] Shinpachi**
U-Uh...
**[11:19] Blue**
What's up?
**[11:19] Shinpachi**
If I have descendants...
**[11:22] Shinpachi**
That would mean I got married
and had kids, right?
**[11:25] Shinpachi**
So...
**[11:27] Shinpachi**
Who do I marry?
**[11:29] Blue**
Oh, knew it! Knew it! Knew it!
**[11:36] Blue**
I knew you'd be asking me that.
**[11:40] Blue**
I knew it was coming.
**[11:42] Blue**
Big guy's a real...dirty...man.
**[11:49] Blue**
Man, I can't get over how young people
these days don't have any patience.
**[11:56] Blue**
Look here.
**[11:57] Blue**
It'd be simple for me to
give you the answer.
**[12:00] Blue**
But you know what?
**[12:01] Blue**
That would make you give
up on thinking for yourself.
**[12:05] Blue**
You okay with that?
**[12:08] Shinpachi**
Aren't you just saying that
because you don't know?
**[12:12] Blue**
Looks like I'll have to explain
this to you, big guy.
**[12:14] Shinpachi**
E-Explain what?
**[12:36] Blue**
Under normal circumstances,
**[12:37] Blue**
you would hesitate and wonder about
whether you really liked that girl.
**[12:40] Blue**
A man betters himself through the effort of
establishing and maintaining a relationship.
**[12:44] Blue**
You could even say that love only
lasts because of constant growth.
**[12:49] Blue**
If I give you the answer now,
**[12:51] Blue**
you'll believe that you can marry
that girl without doing anything.
**[12:56] Blue**
And then you'll just lounge
around your entire life
**[12:59] Blue**
without putting in any effort or
taking any risks, dumbass.
**[13:05] Blue**
Which is why I won't tell you.
**[13:07] Blue**
I'm not being mean.
**[13:11] Shinpachi**
Forgive me, Nekoemon-san.
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of Doraemon. "Neko" means "cat".]
**[13:13] Blue**
Who are you calling Nekoemon?!
**[13:15] Shinpachi**
Huh?! Didn't you come from
the future to help me out?
**[13:19] Blue**
People even treat me like
a Buddha or a god.
**[13:23] Blue**
But I can't stand cats.
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of Doraemon's fear of mice.]
**[13:24] Blue**
I absolutely despise them!
**[13:26] Blue**
The sound they make gives me shivers.
**[13:30] Blue**
Look here.
**[13:32] Blue**
These ears were bitten by a cat.
**[13:35] Shinpachi**
Huh? Not by a mouse?!
***SIGN*** [Note: In the story, Doraemon's ears were bitten off by a mouse.]
**[13:36] Blue**
I said a cat did it!
**[13:38] Shinpachi**
Ah, yes!
**[13:39] Shinpachi**
Sorry.
**[13:40] Shinpachi**
I thought you were someone who could pull
tools out of the pocket on his stomach.
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of Doraemon. His pocket is filled with tools.]
**[13:46] Blue**
Well, it's not that I can't.
**[13:48] Shinpachi**
Huh? You can?
**[13:50] Blue**
Of course. Who do you think I am?
**[13:52] Shinpachi**
I-In that case...
**[13:54] Shinpachi**
That thing that lets you
fly through the sky!
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of Doraemon's Bamboo Copter.]
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of Doraemon's Anywhere Door.]
**[13:57] Shinpachi**
Or the door that lets you go anywhere!
**[13:59] Shinpachi**
Or the flashlight that makes
stuff big or small!
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of Doraemon's Small Light.]
**[14:04] Blue**
Scary!
**[14:06] Blue**
I'm scared, Mommy!
**[14:07] Blue**
This person scares me!
**[14:09] Blue**
He'll fly through the sky to
peek on women bathing.
**[14:12] Blue**
Once he can go anywhere, he'll
sneak into a girls' locker room.
**[14:16] Blue**
He'll become small so he can
slide down a girl's cleavage.
**[14:21] Blue**
Ah! I'm scared!
**[14:23] Blue**
This person's an animal!
**[14:24] Blue**
A sex-craved beast! A sex beast!
**[14:26] Shinpachi**
Why can you only come up
with criminal actions?!
**[14:29] Blue**
Huh?
**[14:29] Blue**
Isn't that all there is?
**[14:31] Shinpachi**
No!
**[14:32] Shinpachi**
I would use them to improve myself!
**[14:35] Blue**
Well, if that's the case, I
guess I'll bring them out.
**[14:39] Blue**
Bamboo-wing!
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of Doraemon's Bamboo Copter]
**[14:41] Blue**
Go-anywhere sliding door!
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of Doraemon's Anywhere Door.]
**[14:44] Blue**
Big and small light!
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of Doraemon's Small Light.]
**[14:47] Shinpachi**
Uh.
**[14:48] Shinpachi**
This is it?
**[14:49] Blue**
Such a weak response!
**[14:51] Blue**
So you think these look weak?
**[14:53] Blue**
You probably think they're just toys.
**[14:56] Shinpachi**
Well, kinda...
**[14:58] Blue**
You'll be surprised when I use them.
**[15:00] Shinpachi**
Really?
**[15:01] Blue**
Give it a try if you don't believe me.
**[15:05] Shinpachi**
How are you supposed to use this?
**[15:07] Blue**
Just open it.
**[15:09] Shinpachi**
Like this?
**[15:17] Shinpachi**
Isn't this just a door with a piece
of paper on the other side?!
**[15:20] Blue**
Yeah, switch the paper and you
can see anywhere you want.
**[15:23] Shinpachi**
Huh?!
**[15:24] Shinpachi**
And it's too small to go through!
**[15:27] Blue**
Man, you just don't stop complaining.
**[15:29] Blue**
You should learn to be satisfied
with what you have.
**[15:31] Shinpachi**
How am I supposed to be satisfied by
something a child could have made?!
**[15:36] Blue**
What are you doing?!
**[15:38] Shinpachi**
This is probably just a flashlight.
**[15:51] Blue**
W-Wait, hold on.
**[15:53] Blue**
There's a reason for this.
**[15:55] Shinpachi**
Eh?
**[15:56] Blue**
Please! Just listen to me!
**[15:58] Blue**
Please!
**[15:58] Blue**
You see, this is still a work-in-progress.
**[16:01] Blue**
A prototype.
**[16:02] Blue**
I'll bring a working one later
so just use this for now.
**[16:07] Shinpachi**
Well, it carries out the function
of lighting up dark places.
**[16:10] Blue**
Right? Right?
**[16:11] Blue**
Very useful! Super useful!
**[16:14] Blue**
Just think about it.
**[16:16] Blue**
It's the middle of the night and you're
going to buy one of those
***SIGN*** [Note: In Japan, racy magazines are often sold in vending machines.]
**[16:18] Blue**
magazines you don't want other
people to know about.
**[17:05] Blue**
The flashlight helps you find the money you
dropped so you can buy the magazine.
**[17:12] Shinpachi**
Could you stop treating me
like I'm in middle school?!
**[17:17] Shinpachi**
I feel like an idiot for expecting anything.
**[17:19] Blue**
What are you saying?!
**[17:21] Blue**
Here! This is amazing!
**[17:23] Blue**
It's the real thing!
**[17:24] Blue**
You can fly if you stick this on your head!
**[17:27] Shinpachi**
Really?
**[17:28] Shinpachi**
Don't you mean that it can fly when
it's not attached to anything else?
**[17:33] Blue**
No way. It's the real deal.
**[17:34] Blue**
You can actually fly.
**[17:37] Shinpachi**
I just have to put this on my head, right?
**[17:39] Blue**
Yeah...
**[17:43] Blue**
It's just...that...
**[17:52] Blue**
Don't say I didn't warn you.
**[17:57] Shinpachi**
Hey.
**[18:04] Shinpachi**
Uh, don't you have one that goes
vertically instead of horizontally?
**[18:09] Blue**
Oh, that.
**[18:10] Blue**
I actually brought one.
**[18:12] Blue**
Bamboo-wing: Vertical!
**[18:15] Shinpachi**
Oh. You have one.
**[18:19] Blue**
But I wouldn't recommend using it.
**[18:25] Blue**
Ah, not again.
**[18:26] Blue**
That old timer gave me another
defective model.
**[18:31] Blue**
So yeah...
**[18:32] Blue**
This shows that you shouldn't
rely on tools.
**[18:34] Blue**
Isn't that great, big guy?
**[18:35] Blue**
You've learned something.
**[18:37] Shinpachi**
So what exactly are you
going to do to help me?
**[18:43] Blue**
Big guy...
**[18:44] Blue**
You can't rely on others.
**[18:47] Blue**
If you rely on me and my tools from the start,
your future won't change a lick..
**[18:54] Blue**
You see, big guy...
**[18:56] Blue**
I'm essentially supposed to be with you.
**[18:58] Blue**
I might bring out a tool to help you every
once in a while or listen to you complain.
**[19:03] Blue**
But for the most part, I don't
intend to do anything.
**[19:06] Blue**
Got it?
**[19:07] Blue**
Kids are no longer curious
or adventurous
**[19:10] Blue**
because of the dragon that brings dead people
back to life if you collect seven balls
***SIGN*** [Note: Refers to Dragon Ball.]
**[19:14] Blue**
and the robot cat who pulls out tools
when someone goes crying for help.
**[19:20] Shinpachi**
Uh?
**[19:21] Shinpachi**
Did you just deny your own existence?
**[19:23] Blue**
I'm no cat.
**[19:26] Blue**
And that's not the issue here.
**[19:29] Blue**
People haven't realized this yet,
**[19:30] Blue**
but the robot did more good when
he was by the kid's side
**[19:34] Blue**
than when he was using tools
to solve his problems.
**[19:38] Blue**
It wasn't a parent, sibling, or pet.
**[19:41] Blue**
But it was someone the kid could talk
to about anything, like a friend.
**[19:45] Blue**
It was important to have someone who could
accept all his flaws and weaknesses.
**[19:53] Blue**
Do you have someone like that, big guy?
**[20:03] Blue**
Right?
**[20:04] Blue**
But you don't need to worry.
**[20:08] Blue**
You and I are friends now.
**[20:14] Blue**
Okay?
**[20:18] Shinpachi**
Yes.
**[20:34] Blue**
So let's start by switching
that TV to a digital one.
**[20:39] Shinpachi**
Oh, that.
**[20:40] Shinpachi**
Are they really going to switch
on July 24, 2011?
**[20:44] Blue**
Well, in the end...
**[20:46] Shinpachi**
What's wrong?
**[20:49] Blue**
Not good.
**[20:50] Blue**
We'll be overheard by Skynet.
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of Terminator]
**[20:52] Shinpachi**
Skynet?
**[20:53] Shinpachi**
Don't you mean the Time Patrol?
***SIGN*** [Note: Refers to Time Patrol from Doraemon.]
**[20:56] Blue**
You see...
**[20:57] Blue**
Skynet is this computer developed
by the military.
**[21:05] Blue**
But at one point, it determined
that humans were its enemy.
**[21:10] Blue**
That was the beginning of a long
war between robots and humans.
**[21:28] Shinpachi**
Uh, I don't see where this is going.
**[21:31] Blue**
Didn't I explain this in the beginning?
**[21:33] Blue**
I came from the future because
people were worried about you.
**[21:36] Blue**
I can use tools to protect you.
**[21:37] Blue**
But that's all.
**[21:39] Shinpachi**
Uh, yeah...
**[21:40] Blue**
I'm pretty sharp.
**[21:44] Blue**
Lucky you, Connor!
***SIGN*** [Note: Parody of Terminator]
**[21:50] Shinpachi**
Huh?
**[21:52] Shinpachi**
Connor?
**[21:57] Blue**
Connor!
**[22:00] Shinpachi**
Connor?
**[22:07] Blue**
Aren't you...Connor?
**[22:12] Shinpachi**
I'm Shinpachi Shimura.
**[22:33] Blue**
Sorry, I got the wrong guy.
**[22:38] Shinpachi**
Huh? What...?
**[24:15] Gintoki**
The next episode...
**[24:16] Gintoki**
"If It Works Once, It'll Work
Over And Over Again."
