[00:04] Gin     We had a little something planned     for this segment, but, y'know? [00:08] Gin     And these lines were recorded three     days before the episode aired. [00:12] Gin     I'm sure that the clever members of the     Gintama audience can figure out what happened. [00:16] Gin     So here's another episode of     Gintama, living on the edge. SIGN    Don't Look [01:52] Zura     Don't look. [01:56] Zura     I found this in Elizabeth's room. [02:00] Zura     What is it that I'm not supposed to look for? [02:04] Zura     Or does it count as looking     when I'm looking for what it is [02:07] Zura     that I'm not supposed to be looking for? [02:10] Zura     In that case, I'll have to look for someone to look [02:14] ---     for what I'm not supposed to look for, [02:16] Zura     before deciding if I should     look or if I should not look. [02:18] Zura     So I'm looking for someone who's     willing to look for the answer. [02:21] Zura     But if I'm not supposed to look, [02:23] Zura     then I can't look for the someone to look for the [02:25] ---     someone to look for the someone to look for the... [02:29] Gin     You're making this too hard. [02:30] Shin     It's like you're lost in a     maze of what not to look for. [02:33] Zura     Don't look... [02:35] Gin     I won't. [02:36] Gin     It's pretty obvious what this is. [02:38] Gin     He ran away from home. [02:39] Zura     E-Elizabeth ran away from home?! [02:42] Zura     I-Impossible! Unfathomable! [02:44] Zura     He had no reason to be unhappy! [02:47] Zura     The last time I saw Elizabeth... [02:50] Zura     The last time I... [02:51] Zura     Th-The last... [02:54] Zura     When was the last time I saw Elizabeth? [02:57] Shin     You can't remember?! [02:59] Kagura     I thought you noticed as     soon as he disappeared? [03:02] Zura     No... SIGN    Zura: We have a testimonial from Mrs.     E who was able to find her happiness. [03:03] Zura     Two episodes ago, when I was     writing that text message, [03:06] Zura     I didn't recognize who was in the picture. [03:08] Shin     That's why he ran away from home! [03:10] Shin     There's a tiny date on the sign. [03:13] Shin     That means he was still around then. [03:15] Gin     Huh? [03:16] Gin     What day is today? [03:17] Kagura     October 31st. [03:20] Shin     I would understand if     he put yesterday's date, [03:21] Shin     but why is it tomorrow's date? [03:22] Kagura     The sign must be from the future! [03:24] Shin     That can't be it. [03:26] Gin     Yeah, yeah. [03:27] Gin     Go the other direction. [03:29] Gin     Maybe that's a year old? [03:31] Shin     Huh? [03:33] Gin     Now that I think about it, it's been [03:34] ---     a while since I've actually seen him in person. [03:37] Zura     Wh-What do you mean?! [03:39] Zura     E-Elizabeth ran away from home a year ago?! [03:42] Zura     And I went about my life without a clue?! [03:45] Gin     You're the one who can't remember. [03:47] Zura     Don't be ridiculous! [03:48] Zura     You heartless bastards may have forgotten, [03:51] Zura     but how could I have     forgotten about Elizabeth?! [03:53] Zura     That's absurd! [03:55] Zura     Damn, I can't remember! [03:57] Zura     For some reason, my memories     of Elizabeth are so erratic! [04:00] Shin     Have they ever not been? [04:02] Zura     What happened between us, Elizabeth?! SIGN    Tenny's SIGN    The People You Tend to Forget Tend to Show Up After You Forget Them [04:14] Zura     We must locate Elizabeth at once. [04:18] Zura     But my memory is hazy. [04:19] Zura     I won't be able to remember     anything in the past. [04:23] Zura     That is why... [04:26] Zura     It's not Zura, it's Katsura. [04:28] Shin     Uh, nobody said anything. [04:30] Kagura     What are these, Zura? [04:32] Zura     It's not Zura, it's a sign. SIGN    You little girls should go home and watch Ainori!! [04:34] Zura     Does this look familiar? [04:36] Shin     That was Elizabeth's line from     the popularity contest arc. [04:40] Zura     Yes, all of the signs he's     used are stored here. [04:44] Zura     We can use these to determine why he ran [04:46] ---     away from home, and his current location as well. [04:49] Gin     Hey, I don't have time to     dig through all of these. [04:52] Zura     This is the only lead we have. [04:54] Zura     Don't worry. [04:55] Zura     Elizabeth was a samurai at heart. [04:57] Zura     He only spoke when necessary. [04:58] Zura     For example, look at how this     line is short and simple. SIGN    No, could be anyone. [05:01] Shin     Uh, who was he talking to     and what was trying to say? [05:04] Zura     It's very simple. [05:06] Zura     This is... [05:06] TV     Is it an echo? SIGN    No, could be anyone. SIGN    No, could be anyone. [05:11] Shin     How the hell were we supposed to know that?! [05:13] Zura     Every time we saw this commercial, [05:16] ---     he would raise this sign and I would go "OC"! [05:20] Zura     But now I hear nothing... [05:22] Shin     How is he a samurai at heart?! [05:23] Zura     Elizabeth... [05:23] Shin     We're supposed to go through     all of these stupid signs?! [05:26] Gin     Is there anything that looks suspicious? [05:29] Gin     Oh, this is... SIGN    Thank you. [05:31] Gin     He suddenly said thank you. [05:33] Shin     And look at the next one. SIGN    Goodbye. [05:35] Shin     This was when he decided to leave. [05:37] Shin     What lead to these signs? [05:38] N     ...will bring you lots of scary friends... [05:42] Zura     Pop, pop, pop! [05:44] Shin     AC again?! [05:47] Zura     Every time we saw this commercial, [05:49] ---     we would take turns on the bunny and Lionel Richie parts. [05:52] Shin     If you don't cut this out, I'm gonna     Goodbye Lionel Richie your ass! [05:53] Zura     Elizabeth... [05:55] Gin     Hey, these are all related to commercials! SIGN    No, it's kefir. SIGN    No, it's Yayataka. [05:58] Shin     How much TV do you watch?! SIGN    No, it's Pitts. SIGN    No, it's Boss. [05:59] Shin     Aren't the Joi supposed to     be taking back the country?! SIGN    No, it's Ondroid. [06:01] Gin     These are the only decent ones. [06:03] Gin     Excuse me, your collar is turned up. [06:05] Gin     Was your hair done at the same     place where Tokiko Gato goes? [06:08] Gin     How do you write out ? [06:10] Shin     They're all about ! [06:13] Shin     And when did he use these signs?! [06:16] Shin**     Doesn't this mean he was talking to ?! [06:19] Zura     Was your hair done at the same place? [06:22] Zura*     I'm close to remembering something. [06:27] Zura     I believe this line was when... [06:29] Zura     Yes, it was a winter day that     left you cold in body and soul. [06:33] Shin     No, stop! [06:34] Shin     Don't start a flashback     from those stupid lines! [06:37] Zura     We were on the run, without     a roof above our heads. [06:41] Shin     Hey! I said to stop! [06:43] N     This race pits the young [06:45] ---     ***** against the older Ishihara in a one-on-one duel! [06:48] Shin     You're watching TV again?! [06:49] Shin     Just end this! [06:51] Shin     Say something funny about     's hair and end this! [06:54] Zura     I see, so these two are... [06:55] Shin*     Don't bother setting up the joke! [06:57] Shin     Look at 's hair! [06:58] Shin     She must go to the same     place Tokiko Gato goes! [07:01] Zura*     Is Ishihara the one who can provide     hope in these times of trouble? [07:04] Zura     Or is it ? [07:06] Zura     Which one is the answer? SIGN    No, it's Katsura. [07:08] Shin*     Another OC commercial?! [07:10] Shin     Wait! You're not going to say anything?! [07:12] Shin     You're not going to comment on 's hair?! [07:15] Zura     Idle chatter did little to stave     off the biting cold and hunger. [07:20] Shin*     Stop wasting time on this     pointless flashback! [07:23] Zura     I couldn't die here before starting     a revolution in this country. [07:27] Zura     As we dragged ourselves     along, that was when... SIGN    ***** [07:32] Renho     Make ***** your first choice. [07:34] Renho     Make ***** your second choice. [07:35] Renho     ***** is more than number one. [07:35] Shin     Hey! It's the real ! [07:37] Renho     **** is the only one. [07:37] Shin     Look at that hair! [07:38] Shin     Her collars are turned way up! [07:39] Shin     You can use all of your signs now! [07:41] Shin     I see, you ignored the previous opportunity     so you could use them all here! [07:45] Zura     Are you okay? [07:47] Zura     I can carry that for you. [07:48] Gin     Forget about the old lady! [07:49] Gin     Look at that hair behind you! Say something! [07:52] Fumi     Thank you. [07:54] Fumi     There are still kind souls left in Edo. [07:57] Gin     Yeah, very nice! [07:58] Gin     But it would be even better if     he ended this stupid flashback! [08:02] Zura     That was when we met Grandma Fumiko. [08:05] Gin     Uh, nobody cares about the old lady! [08:08] Zura     Grandma Fumiko would tell picture stories to [08:10] ---     the children in the park at the top of the stairs. [08:13] Gin     You've completely lost your chance! [08:14] Gin     You're never going to get a better shot! [08:16] Zura     In this age, kids don't     care about picture stories. [08:20] Zura     Yet Grandma Fumiko would climb the stairs [08:24] ---     every day with her heavy load. [08:27] Zura     Maybe that was why Elizabeth began     visiting the park every day. [08:32] Gin     Damn! This is turning into one     of those heartwarming stories! [08:35] Gin     's never coming back! [08:38] Zura     When it was raining... [08:40] Zura*     When it was windy... [08:43] Zura     When it was ... [08:44] Shin     There's ! [08:46] Zura     Elizabeth went to the park with Grandma Fumiko [08:49] ---     every day to watch the kids play. [08:52] Shin**     It's a miracle! [08:53] Shin     ***** is back with her funky hair! [08:56] Shin     Er, wait. [08:57] Shin     's eating something! [08:58] Shin     Gin-san! It's fried chicken! [08:58] Zura*     One day, Elizabeth finally asked Grandma     Fumiko the question that had been bugging him. [08:59] Shin     's eating fried chicken! [09:01] Gin     Hey, look behind you! [09:03] Gin*     Say something! [09:03] Gin     Funky chick eating fried chicken! SIGN    Why do you come here every day? [09:07] Fumi     You think it's strange? [09:08] Fumi     A storyteller spends all day watching     the children instead of telling stories? [09:14] Gin     It's no use! [09:15] Gin     The fried chicken doesn't help!      They aren't looking! [09:17] Shin     Hey! [09:18] Shin     ***** is throwing fried chicken at them! [09:20] Shin     But they still haven't noticed her! [09:21] Fumi     I tell stories to make the children smile. [09:25] Fumi     But look, they're having     plenty of fun already. [09:29] Fumi     So my job is to watch over them. [09:35] Shin     's messing up her hair in front of them! SIGN    I want to see your picture story. [09:40] Fumi     You're such a strange one. [09:41] Gin*     If he doesn't use those signs now,      he's never gonna use them! [09:45] Fumi     Oh, well. I suppose I can tell     you one of my best stories. [09:50] Gin     Please! End this flashback! SIGN    Was your hair done at the same place where Tokiko Gato goes? [09:55] Fumi     Let's begin then. [09:56] Fumi     The story of "Was your hair done at the     same place where Tokiko Gato goes?" [10:01] Both     There?! [10:03] Shin     You can use it there?! [10:04] Gin     Wait! [10:05] Gin     After all that buildup, it     wasn't even Elizabeth's sign?! [10:08] Gin     It has nothing to do with , you a-hole! [10:10] Shin     And what kind of picture story is this?! [10:13] Shin*     No wonder the kids stayed away! [10:15] Zura     I can't remember the details... [10:17] Zura     I wasn't paying attention so I can't     remember anything after the title. [10:23] Gin     Was it that scary?! [10:25] Kagura     But why does Elizabeth have a     sign from the granny's story? [10:30] Zura     I have a feeling that this     line will help me remember. SIGN    Excuse me, your collar is turned up. [10:34] Gin     No, no more! [10:35] Gin     Just stop! [10:37] Zura     I believe this line was when... [10:38] Shin     He started another flashback! [10:40] Shin     Please get to the point and make this short! [10:44] Fumi     Eli, you were too much. SIGN    Excuse me, your collar (my penis) is turned up. [10:47] Fumi     My back can't take it. [10:50] Gin     That was too short! [10:51] Gin     How did that even happen?! [10:53] Gin     What went down between them?! [10:55] Zura     You wasted all that time     on the first flashback! [10:57] Zura     It isn't proper for us to probe     into the affairs of other couples. [11:01] Zura     All I can say is that Elizabeth isn't picky. [11:03] Gin     This isn't a matter of being picky or not! [11:05] Gin     And where were you watching this from?! SIGN    How do you write out ? [11:07] Shin     Wait! [11:08] Shin*     There's only one sign left! [11:11] Kagura     Hey, Zura! What's wrong?! [11:13] Zura     My head... [11:14] Zura     I-I have a feeling [11:17] ---     that I'm not supposed     to remember what comes next... [11:20] Gin     Wait! [11:21] Gin     Don't tell me that you're talking about     Elizabeth and the old lady getting down and dirty! [11:25] Gin     The flashback started! It started! [11:31] Fumi     Snow... It's so cold... SIGN    Hold on. [11:37] Fumi     It's okay. Don't overdo it. [11:39] Fumi     You'll end up catching a cold. [11:42] Fumi     Besides... [11:44] Fumi     I have my own. [11:48] Fumi     I'm sure that you've seen     through my disguise. [11:50] Fumi     I may be wearing the skin     of an earthling right now, [11:59] Fumi     but you could never forget     your former lover, could you? [12:06] Fumi     But you could never forget     your former lover, could you? SIGN    B Part [12:10] Fumi     Or did you approach me     because you recognized me? [12:13] Fumi     So you could dispose of the traitor? [12:16] Fumi     I was surprised to see that you were still     using those signs to lie to yourself. [12:22] Fumi     After watching the people     on this planet smile, [12:25] Fumi     I discovered my true calling. [12:27] Fumi     I want to tell stories and protect     the smiles of the people here. [12:33] Fumi     That is how I truly feel. [12:35] Fumi     Don't you feel the same way? [12:36] Fumi     So why are you still wearing that costume? [12:39] Fumi     Why are you still using signs to talk? [12:42] Fumi     Don't you realize what we're     doing to this planet?! [12:48] ---     Y-You're such a coward... [12:51] Fumi     Please... Stop this... [12:57] Fumi     Y-You don't need to follow     someone else's script... [13:04] Fumi     Write your own story... SIGN    Are you finished? SIGN    We've been ordered to return. SIGN    Our survey of Earth is complete. SIGN    Let's go, Captain. [13:22] Zura     E-Elizabeth! [13:24] Zura     Wh-Why you?! [13:25] Zura     What is the meaning of this?! [13:27] Zura     One Elizabeth, two Elizabeths,     three Elizabeths... [13:38] Fumi     I see that he's regained his memories. [13:42] Fumi     I just remembered everything myself. [13:45] Fumi     Yes, he wasn't... [13:47] Fumi     We aren't cute pets. [13:49] Fumi     We came to invade this planet. [13:53] Fumi     We were sent as spies to     scout the enemy's land. [13:57] Fumi     We are members of the legendary mercenary tribe [14:00] ---     who have worked for Dakini, Shinra, and Yato... [14:02] Fumi     Feared as the white devils... [14:05] Fumi     We are known as the... [14:06] Zura     Elizabeth, who are you...? [14:11] Fumi     Renho. [14:13] Shin     I can't keep up with everything that's wrong! [14:16] Shin     What are you people talking about?! [14:17] Shin     Just look at what you're wearing! [14:19] Shin     Why is the show suddenly serious?! [14:20] Shin     Just look at what you're wearing! [14:22] Shin     How are we supposed to     follow all these twists?! [14:25] Zura     I remember everything now. [14:28] Zura     The legendary mercenary tribe... [14:30] Zura     The white devils, Renho! [14:33] Zura     That is Elizabeth's true identity. [14:35] Fumi     Yes, he infiltrated Earth     by pretending to be your pet [14:40] Fumi     while secretly sending information about [14:41] ---     this planet back to the main fleet. [14:43] Shin     I've never seen a pet act like that! [14:46] Shin     And he wasn't being secretive! [14:47] Shin     He drew attention everywhere he went! [14:48] Fumi     And your adorable pet was their leader. SIGN    Don't look. [14:53] Fumi     And now they've returned to the main fleet [14:54] ---     having completed their mission, SIGN    Forget [14:56] Fumi     after erasing any potentially     inconvenient memories. [14:59] Fumi     You forgot about him because     he erased your memories. [15:05] Zura     Y-You're lying. [15:09] Zura     The time Elizabeth and I     spent together was all a lie? [15:14] Zura     It was all an illusion? [15:16] Zura     I-I refuse to accept that... [15:20] Zura     I absolutely refuse to accept it! [15:22] Gin     Zura! [15:25] Zura     Oh, don't come too close.      I don't want you to hear me. [15:29] Shin     You picked the worst time to take a dump. [15:32] Fumi     I didn't want him to betray you. [15:35] Fumi     That's why I fought alone to     interfere with their work. [15:40] Fumi     But I wasn't able to stop him. [15:43] Fumi     I believe that over the past year, [15:45] ---     they've almost finished preparing for their invasion of Earth. [15:49] Fumi     At this rate, Earth will fall to the Renho. [15:53] FUmi     But it isn't too late. [15:55] Fumi     We can still stop him! [15:58] Fumi     Please help me protect Earth from the Renho! SIGN    Dark Vader SIGN    has arrived. SIGN    Comrades, SIGN    the time has come. SIGN    After losing our mother planet in the great war, we have stayed strong while living on this planet.

[18:05] Gin     He might be able to make it to space. [18:07] Gin     Good luck. [18:10] Zura     W-Wait, you fools... [18:12] Zura     A true samurai would never     ignore a danger to Earth. [18:16] Zura     If an idiot who didn't realize that his [18:18] ---     pet was an alien invader can be a samurai, [18:20] Zura     I give up on being a samurai. [18:21] Zura     Bastards! [18:22] Zura     You trust that Fujiko knock-off     more than Elizabeth?! [18:25] Zura     I will not accept that! [18:27] Zura     Elizabeth would never invade Earth! [18:29] Zura     That slutty woman could never     be Elizabeth's former lover! [18:32] Fumi     Oh? What makes you think that I'm slutty? [18:36] Zura     Why you... [18:37] Fumi     Please tell me. [18:39] Fumi     Well? [18:39] Fumi     In what way am I slutty? [18:42] Zura     O-Obviously, your... [18:44] Fumi     Why are you cooperating     with this slutty woman? [18:47] Zura     I'm not cooperating with you! [18:50] Zura     And I am not fighting as a Joi     patriot defending his planet! [18:54] Zura     I'm going to save my friend! [18:56] Zura     I may have a hundred doubts, a thousand doubts, [18:59] Zura     but I choose to believe     in the drink we shared. [19:02] Zura     That's how a friendship between men works. [19:05] Zura     He must have his reasons. [19:08] Zura     He must have been forced     into his current situation. [19:13] Zura     In that case, I will cross the galaxy     and rivers of blood to save him! [19:18] Shin     Uh, the rivers of blood are     flowing down your face. [19:24] Fumi     He's not as innocent as you think. [19:28] Fumi     But that's fine. [19:29] Fumi     In any case, we share the same goal. [19:33] Fumi     If you don't want Earth to be     destroyed, you should work with me. [19:36] Gin     Screw that. [19:37] Gin     Why are we supposed to help you     when you're the ones invading us? [19:40] Gin     Do you even know how to     write invasion in Japanese? [19:43] Kagura     The Yato can't do it.
