[00:01] Shinpachi
    Keep your room well-lit.
[00:02] Gintoki
    And don't sit too close to the television.
SIGN    [Today they are working in a convenience store. The most popular item in the store is the "Tasty Stick".]
SIGN    [Gin-san, who has a sweet-tooth, always picks chocolate flavor. Don't forget "Bargain Dash Ice Cream" too!]
[01:44] Kagura
    Welcome!
[01:46] Customer
    Never mind the welcome.
SIGN    Note: "Nmaibo" literally means tasty stick.
[01:48] ---
    If you're working, how come you're eating Nmaibo?
[01:52] Kagura
    Because it's nmai.
[01:54] Customer
    Are you trying to make a fool outta me?
[01:57] Customer
    Hey! You're spilling crumbs into my bag!
[02:00] Customer
    Hey! Where's the store manager?! Manger?!
[02:04] Gintoki
    I'm the manager, Sakata. Sir, got a problem?
[02:09] Customer
    You two are the problem!
[02:12] Gintoki
    Hey, he seems awfully upset. What'd you do?
[02:16] Kagura
    I don't know. He's been in a bad mood since he walked in, manager!
[02:20] Customer
    Hey! I'm telling you to stop munching on that! Hey!
[02:23] Gintoki
    Sorry, sir.
[02:25] Gintoki
    We're temporary help, so we're not too familiar with sophisticated marketing issues.
[02:28] Gintoki
    But we're doing our best, so give us a break.
[02:31] Customer
    I don't care if you do your best. I'm just telling to take that stick out of your mouth!
[02:36] Customer
    Hey! What're you microwaving over there?!
[02:38] Kagura
    I don't know. But I'm working really hard at it, yup!
[02:41] Customer
    Yup?! Hey, my JUMP's in there!
[02:44] Customer
    Huh?! It exploded! What exploded?!
[02:47] Customer
    What're you doing, you?! My JUMP is covered with salad dressing!
[02:51] Kagura
    I don't know about that.
[02:53] Kagura
    But I think it's a good thing to have a cozy convenience store like this in such a cold-hearted era.
[02:57] Customer
    It's not! Gimme back my money!
[03:02] Shinpachi
    That's why I said it was impossible for us.
[03:05] Hasegawa
    Say, I'm looking after a convenience store as a favor to my friend.
[03:10] ---
    But I have some business I gotta take care of and can't watch over the store.
[03:12] Hasegawa
    Sorry, it's only for one day. Thanks so much.
[03:16] Hasegawa
    See you!
[03:20] Shinpachi
    At this rate, by the time Hasegawa-san returns, the shop will be out of business.
[03:31] Shinpachi
    What're you doing?
[03:33] Shinpachi
    Open your shirts. You stole something, didn't you?
[03:35] Takachin
    What?! I didn't...!
[03:39] Takachin
    Sh-Shin-chan?
[03:41] Shinpachi
    Takachin?
SIGN    ["Don't Be Shy - Just Raise Your Hand and Say It"]
[03:49] Gintoki
    Hachibei Takaya, age sixteen. The same as you, Shinpachi.
[03:53] ---
    Aren't you embarrassed? Stealing at your age!
[03:55] ---
    You'll make your mama cry.
[03:57] Gintoki
    Besides, what were you planning to do with so much hair styling gel?
[04:02] Gintoki
    Quit worrying about your hair and be more confident about yourself!
[04:06] Takachin
    Like I was gonna use all of this myself!
[04:09] Gintoki
    Then what? A condiment?
[04:11] Gintoki
    Were you planning to pour it over your rice so you could eat silky, luxuriant food?
[04:15] Shinpachi
    Takachin, why'd you do such a thing?
[04:18] Shinpachi
    Takachin, you didn't used to be like this.
[04:22] Takachin
    Shut up! How many years do you think have passed?
[04:26] ---
    I'm not the Takachin you used to know.
[04:29] Takachin
    So just take me wherever...to the police station or the magistrate.
[04:32] ---
    And if they wanna crucify me, fine!
[04:40] Takachin
    Don't expect me to be grateful.
[04:43] Takachin
    I'll just come back again.
[04:45] Shinpachi
    And I'll stop you again.
[04:47] Takachin
    Sheesh, still the same goody-two-shoes, eh? Shin-chan.
[04:55] Shinpachi
    Leave Takachin alone!
[04:57] Takichin
    When we were at Temple school together, you and your sister always came to my rescue.
[05:04] Takichin
    Shin-chan!
[05:05] Bully B
    We'll make you cry too!
[05:09] Delinquent B
    Go ahead and cry!
[05:10] Shinpachi
    I will not! I'm a samurai's son!
[05:12] Otae
    What's the big idea, you bullies!
[05:16] Takachin
    Well, it was mostly your sister creating a scene.
[05:21] Takachin
    Brings back memories.
[05:23] ---
    I thought you'd be my friend, no matter what happened.
[05:27] ---
    Until that day that you betrayed me.
[05:30] Shinpachi
    Takachin, that was...
[05:31] Takachin
    I don't wanna hear your excuses!
[05:34] ---
    Do you know how much I suffered because of your half-assed attempt at kindness?!
[05:40] Takachin
    Ever since that day, I...
[05:42] Takachin
    Well, forget it.
[05:44] ---
    Thanks to you, I got a little stronger.
[05:47] Takachin
    I'm in a gang now.
[05:50] Takachin
    Heard of them? The Bulldogs?
[05:53] Takachin
    I don't need to rely on your strength anymore. I'm strong now!
[06:01] Otae
    Takachinko? Who's that?
SIGN    [Note: Chinko means penis.]
[06:05] Shinpachi
    Not Takachinko. Takachin.
[06:08] ---
    You really don't remember?
[06:10] Otae
    I've forgotten about the past.
[06:12] Otae
    I've decided to be more forward-thinking.
[06:16] ---
    But never mind that. I brought you all a treat.
[06:19] ---
    Gin-san, Kagura-san, please help yourselves.
[06:22] Kagura
    Yay! Big sis!
[06:26] Otae
    I tried making something new.
[06:29] Oate
    Here you go. Rolled omelets.
[06:33] Kagura
    I'll go and get some drinks!.
[06:35] Gintoki
    Never mind. I'll go, you sit!
[06:37] Otae
    This is a convenience store. You can find all the drinks you need right here.
[06:43] Otae
    You mustn't embarrass a girl like that.
[06:47] Otae
    Shin-chan, come here and eat. It's very good.
[06:52] Otae
    Shin-chan...?
[06:53] Shinpachi
    Sister...
[06:55] Shinpachi
    Without a doubt, the Bulldogs are the rowdiest gang around.
[07:00] Shinpachi
    They fight and steal without a care.
SIGN    [Note: Chinpo also means penis.]
[07:04] Otae
    Shin-chan, why are you so concerned about Takachinpo.
[07:07] Shinpachi
    It's Takachin, Sister.
[07:09] Shinpachi
    It's my fault that Takachin turned that way. I turned my back on him.
[07:16] Shinpachi
    When he was at his lowest point...
[07:18] Takachin
    Sh-Shin-chan, what'll I do? I pooped my pants.
[07:22] Takachin
    What'll I do, Shin-chan?
[07:28] Takachin
    Shin-chan, I'll bet you're really awake.
[07:31] Takachin
    Shin-chan, Shin-chan!
[07:34] Shinpachi
    The springtime of youth is like a sandcastle. The smallest thing can make it crumble.
[07:41] Shinpachi
    Right after that, I stopped going to the Temple school due to family debts.
[07:46] ---
    But it's not hard to imagine Takachin's life after that.
[07:51] Shinpachi
    What should I have done back then?
[07:54] Shinpachi
    How could I have answered Takachin's call?
[07:58] Gintoki
    No, no. That was a hopeless case.
[08:00] Kagura
    Yes, totally hopeless.
[08:01] Otae
    No, it wasn't.
[08:04] Otae
    When your friend is crying, cry with him.
[08:08] ---
    When your friend is worried, you should worry with him.
[08:13] ---
    When your friend has an awkward bowel movement...
[08:16] Otae
    then you must have a bowel movement too, Shin-chan.
[08:21] Otae
    If you are a friend, you should be able to share the other's pain, no matter what.
[08:25] Otae
    And Shin-chan, if your friend goes down the wrong path...
[08:32] Otae
    Then, you must stop your friend, even if it ruins your friendship.
[08:36] ---
    That is true samurai friendship.
[08:42] Shinpachi
    Excuse me, manager. I have some business to take care of. Please excuse me.
[08:54] Gintoki
    Hey, hey, are you sure about this?
[08:56] ---
    You never know what the youth will do these days.
[08:59] ---
    Don't come crying to me if something happens.
SIGN    [Bulldog]
[09:13] Heizo
    You useless idiot! Who said to get regular-hold mousse?!
[09:20] Heizo
    I told you, didn't I?
[09:22] Heizo
    I need extra control styling mousse to hold my hair in place!
[09:26] Omittedtakachin
    I-I'm sorry. I ran into a little trouble.
[09:30] Heizo
    You begged me to let you to join the gang, so I made an exception!
[09:36] ---
    But if you can't even do a simple errand, what's the use?
[09:40] Heizo
    I think I need to beat some of that fighting spirit into you, right? Some spirit.
[09:46] Takachin
    Wh-What's this?!
[09:50] Takachin
    Hey, what're you doing?!
[09:59] Underling A
    Hachibei, we'll give you some fighting spirit!
[10:15] Heizo
    Wh-Wha--?!
[10:18] Heizo
    Who the hell are you?!
[10:19] Shinpachi
    Who am I? You must be some amateur if you don't know who I am.
[10:25] Shinpachi
    I am the President of the Otsu-chan Fan Club, Shinpachi Shimura!
[10:29] Takachin
    Sh-Shin-chan...
[10:31] Takachin
    What're you doing here?! This is no place for you!
[10:36] Takachin
    Go home!
[10:38] Shinpachi
    Excuse me!
[10:39] Shinpachi
    Who's your leader?
[10:42] Heizo
    Huh? As if our Chairman would see a guy like you!
[10:46] ---
    So, kid? Whaddya want?
[10:49] Shinpachi
    I'm here to take Hachibei Takaya back.
[10:51] ---
    From this moment on, he is resigning from the Bulldogs and joining the Otsu-chan Fan Club!
[10:58] ---
    I came to get your permission.
[10:59] Takachin
    Wh-What're you saying?! Otsu-chan Fan Club? What the hell is that? I...
[11:04] Shinpachi
    Takachin. I'm just like you.
[11:07] ---
    Since that crap incident, I've been sick of my weakness, and I've wanted to become stronger.
[11:13] Shinpachi
    But Takachin, there's no shortcut to becoming strong.
[11:16] ---
    Even if you try to look strong, appearances eventually wear off.
[11:22] Shinpachi
    Joining a gang and hiding behind the ferocity of some other guy's strength...
[11:25] ---
    Is that the kind of strength you want?
[11:28] Shinpachi
    Do you really want to be like these uncool guys?
[11:32] Underling A
    Kid! Sorry, but this gang ain't no social club.
[11:37] ---
    This ain't the kind of organization where you can just say "I quit." And we just say "Oh, okay then."
[11:41] Shinpachi
    In that case, I'll take him by force.
[11:43] Heizo
    Hey, don't underestimate us, brat!
[11:47] Heizo
    And what makes you think you can do anything alone!
[11:50] Gintoki
    He's not alone!
[11:55] Gintoki
    Hey Chief, part-time work is a pain in the ass! I couldn't stand it.
[12:01] Otae
    If it's a fight you want, then we'll join in!
[12:03] Kagura
    The Otsu-chan Fan Club Special Attack Squad "Maltese" has arrived!
[12:08] Gintoki
    Pleased to make your acquaintance.
SIGN    [Maltese(?) Please verify.]
[12:18] Chairman
    Hey... My hairline looks unnatural today.
[12:23] Chairman
    Geez, what if it falls off while I'm galloping along?
[12:28] Chairman
    My carefully built reputation will be in ruins, that's for sure.
[12:31] Chairman
    Oh well, I overdid it when I was younger... All the hair dyes and permaments.
[12:39] Chairman
    I guess I'll just have to glue it on today.
[12:41] Heizo
    Chairma-a-a-an!
[12:43] Chairman
    Y-You idiot!! At least knock first, okay?
[12:46] Heizo
    S-Sorry!
[12:48] Heizo
    Huh? Where should I have knocked?
[12:50] Chairman
    Knock in your heart! What do you want?
[12:53] Heizo
    We've got trouble!! A bunch of guys came to fight and they're crazy strong!
[13:02] Gintoki
    Slaaaash!
[13:08] Chairman
    What're you jerks doing?!
[13:10] Delinquents
    Chairman!
[13:11] Chairman
    I keep telling you, don't settle everything with violence!
[13:14] ---
    What's going on? What happened?
[13:17] Heizo
    Chairman... I think something happened to your head.
[13:21] Chairman
    Just the four of you taking on the Bulldogs? Edo's strongest and fastest gang?
[13:26] Chairman
    Who are you guys?
[13:28] Gintoki
    Huh? We're the...you know. Special Force...um...what was it?
[13:34] Otae
    Huh? Special Force Pomeranian... Wasn't that it?
[13:40] Gintoki
    Yeah, something like that. Let's use that.
[13:44] Shinpachi
    It's Maltese. At least remember our gang name.
[13:48] Gintoki
    Oh yeah! We're the Malcheese!
[13:51] ---
    A circle with a triangular piece of cheese.
[13:53] ---
    Don't mess with us!
[13:55] Heizo
    Huh? "Don't mess with Maltese"? I don't get it...
[13:58] Chairman
    Never heard of you. What do you want anyway?!
[14:02] Omittedshinpachi
    We're taking Takachin with us! I won't let you force my friend to shoplift!
[14:06] Chairman
    Takachin? Do we have a member named that?
[14:10] Heizo
    Yes. They mean Takaya, the one who just joined up recently.
[14:13] Chairman
    And? Where is he?
[14:15] Heizo
    Over there.
[14:17] Shinpachi
    Hey! What're you doing?!
[14:19] Kagura
    Huh? This is Takachinko? My mistake, dude... Dammit!
[14:23] ---
    Don't mess with me!
[14:25] Shinpachi
    How could you make a mistake?!
[14:27] Kagura
    Well, everyone's hair looks like a baguette. I couldn't tell the difference.
[14:31] Shinpachi
    Hey!
[14:32] Chairman
    Four-eyes, are you Takaya's friend? I get it.
[14:36] Chairman
    You came here to rehabilitate your buddy, eh?
[14:38] ---
    I like that.
[14:40] Chairman
    You want that small fry in your gang. Okay, take him.
[14:43] Heizo
    But Chairman!
[14:44] Chairman
    But, I want you to do something, first.
[14:48] ---
    We have a ceremony one has to undergo before leaving the gang.
[14:53] ---
    In his current condition, Takaya can't do it.
[14:56] ---
    You guys are gonna do it for him.
[15:05] Chairman
    The rules are simple.
[15:06] Chairman
    You ride motorbikes to the edge of town... to the freeway that's under construction.
[15:11] Chairman
    If you get there first, I'll let you take Takaya.
[15:16] Chairman
    Anything goes. Using weapons, interfering with the opposing team, whatever.
[15:21] Chairman
    If I was you, I'd have one of ya ride and the other one attack and obstruct.
[15:25] Chairman
    All of you have to race. And we'll have four from our team.
[15:29] Otae
    Excuse me. We only have one scooter. Can you lend us one, creep?
[15:37] Chairman
    Are you really a bike gang?!
[15:40] Gintoki
    Damn right, we are! We're eco-friendly rabble-rousers!
[15:44] Chairman
    I guess we have no choice.
[15:47] Shinpachi
    Huh? Sis, you can drive this thing?
[15:50] Otae
    A samurai does not concern himself with petty details, dude.
[15:53] Kagura
    Gin-chan, I need to go to the little girl's room.
[15:57] Gintoki
    Then go take a leak over there someplace, dude.
[15:59] Kagura
    What a thing to tell a lady!
[16:01] Chairman
    Heh-heh, this is gonna be interesting.
[16:03] Fatso
    Okay, get ready!
[16:05] Fatso
    Ready...get...set... Go Bull...
[16:07] Fatso
    ...dogs!
[16:13] Heizo
    The fools, here they come!
[16:15] ---
    They have no idea this is a bloody ceremony to punish traitors!
[16:21] Heizo
    You're all gonna die here!
[16:24] Heizo
    Do it!
[16:28] Heizo
    Flatten 'em!
[16:34] Chairman
    Heizo!
[16:35] Gintoki
    Who's gonna die, Heizo-chan?
[16:38] Kagura
    Gin-chan, I can't hold it anymore.
[16:40] Gintoki
    Go ahead and pee.
[16:50] Matsutaro
    That's the power of our ultra moisturizer! Just lie there and grovel!
[16:54] Gintoki
    Why you--!
[16:59] Matsutaro
    Wh-What?!
[17:00] Chairman
    She used her teammate as a springboard!
[17:01] Shinpachi
    Sis, what're you doing?! You probably just killed Gin-san! Hey!
[17:07] Otae
    I won't allow anybody to pass me!
[17:10] Otae
    I am the wind! Born free like the wind! Yahoo!
[17:13] Shinpachi
    Huh?! Sis! Did you pass into another dimension or something?
[17:17] Otae
    It feels so good!
[17:19] Otae
    If we speed up by three kilometers, I think we could travel through time!
[17:22] Shinpachi
    Sis! Time travel on your own time, okay?
[17:25] ---
    First, the handle bars! Grab the handle bars!
[17:27] Matsutaro
    You're not going to pass us!
[17:30] ---
    I'll show you how frightening we Bulldogs are!
[17:35] Otae
    What're you doing?! I have three kilometers more to go! Don't interfere!
[17:38] Shinpachi
    Hey, the handle bars! The handle bars!
[17:40] Chairman
    Hey, no! Don't!
[17:49] Shinpachi
    He's bald!
[17:50] ---
    Sister, snap out of it! It wasn't real!
[17:53] ---
    It's just a wig!
[17:55] Chairman
    Whoa! What happened! All my hair got pulled out, and now it looks like I'm bald!
[18:01] Matsutaro
    Why are you over explaining it like that?
[18:02] Chairman
    Hey Matsutaro, is there anything you want?
[18:06] Matsutaro
    Chairman, don't worry. Everyone's known about your hair condition for a long time.
[18:12] Chairman
    Oh no! Seriously?
[18:16] Kagura
    Shinpachi!
[18:18] Kagura
    Just hang in there a little longer! Hang on!
[18:23] Chairman
    What the hell is this brat?!
[18:25] Kagura
    What's the big deal with rabble rousing biker gangs?!
[18:27] ---
    I've been raising hell all my life!
[18:29] ---
    Show 'em we're in a totally different class, Gin-chan!
[18:34] Shinpachi
    Who is that?!
[18:37] Kagura
    It's Gin-chan!
[18:38] Kagura
    That's why I told him to switch the sake with strawberry milk!
[18:41] Shinpachi
    Don't blame the sake! Your head's to blame!
[18:47] Chairman
    You guys are better as comedians than a biker gang!
[18:51] Gintoki
    Oh yeah?
[18:53] Gintoki
    Looks like you're the comedian! What with your fly away wig and all!
[18:59] Chairman
    Why you--!
[19:00] Shinpachi
    Gin-san!
[19:01] Chairman
    Was that girl just a decoy? You pulled my attention offa you...
[19:06] Gintoki
    I could send you straight to hell right now with my Special Samurai German Suplex.
[19:12] ---
    But that would dampen Shinpachi's enthusiasm.
[19:15] ---
    So from this point on, you'll race our captain fair and square!
[19:19] Gintoki
    Shinpachi! Go on and win this one for us.
[19:23] Shinpachi
    Right!
[19:26] Underling A
    Cripes!
[19:27] Underling A
    What a pain in the ass!
[19:30] Underling B
    What's the point of rescuing a useless idiot like you?
[19:34] Underling B
    Poor guy, he could be dead by now.
[19:39] Underling C
    Yup, there's never been anyone who lived through this ceremony.
[19:43] Underling D
    Maybe they ran away.
[19:47] Underling A
    That's possible. Maybe they groveled before the Chairman and begged for forgiveness.
[20:24] Underling C
    They're late.
[20:26] Underling C
    Maybe they really are dead.
[20:32] Underling C
    Say something!
[20:35] Underling B
    They're your friends, after all.
[20:37] ---
    No doubt they're all dead.
[20:40] Underling A
    Right. Flies attract flies. A scumbag is bound to have scumbag friends!
[20:46] Underling D
    Hey, look.
[20:51] Underling D
    What?
[20:57] Underling D
    No way!
[20:58] Underling C
    Don't tell me he made it through all the traps!
[21:01] Underling B
    What about the bike?! He ran the whole way?!
[21:05] Underling A
    Never mind the bike! The Chairman doesn't have his wig!
[21:13] Shinpachi (M)
    Takachin... I'm just like you, Takachin.
[21:16] Shinpachi (M)
    I hated my own weakness... and I always wanted to be strong...
[21:20] Shinpachi (M)
    That's why...
[21:42] Takachin
    You fool...
[21:49] Takachin
    Damn, thanks for nothing.
[21:52] Takachin
    Do you know how hard it was for me to join that gang?
[21:56] Takachin
    So you tried to make amends. Well, it's too late.
[22:01] Shinpachi
    All right, I get it.
[22:03] Takachin
    Listen, I'm not forgiving you, ever!
[22:07] ---
    So don't pull anything like that again.
[22:11] Shinpachi
    Takachin...
[22:13] Takachin
    Back there... the chairman said he was impressed with your spirit.
[22:17] ---
    He was gonna make you join the gang! Turning him down was a hassle.
[22:24] Takachin
    I had to explain that I couldn't let my friend get mixed up in something like that.
[22:29] Shinpachi
    Okay, okay. I hear you.
[22:36] Hasegawa
    I've got to stop asking those jerks for help.
