[02:47] ---
    Trick or treat!
[02:50] ---
    Here you are.
[02:56] ---
    Delicious!
[02:57] ---
    Yeah, it's really good, right?
[03:00] ---
    Yes!
[03:01] ---
    I wonder what that is.
[03:03] ---
    Let's check it out!
[03:10] ---
    Here you go.
[03:16] ---
    What do you think of the Halloween festival?
[03:18] ---
    It's fun and we get to
    eat a lot of sweet, tasty treats!
[03:22] ---
    Agreed!
[03:23] ---
    Though I was a little creeped out at first
    by all the pumpkins!
[03:29] ---
    What's wrong?
[03:30] ---
    I've had a strange feeling
    ever since we came to this town.
[03:34] ---
    What kind of feeling?
[03:36] ---
    Like there are many, um, things
    sprinkled among the crowd...
[03:42] ---
    Sure. Apparently the souls of the dead
    return to this town today.
[03:47] ---
    - The souls...
    - ...of dead people?
[03:49] ---
    The custom is for the living to disguise
    themselves and welcome those souls.
[03:54] ---
    So that's why everyone is
    wearing different costumes.
[03:57] ---
    That's right.
[03:59] ---
    So what do you think?
[04:00] ---
    My costume is the cutest in the world, right?
[04:06] ---
    It's very cute!
[04:08] ---
    Oh, that's right.
    And your costume, too, Ferry...
[04:11] ---
    Huh? Where did Ferry go?
[04:15] ---
    There she is! What's she doing?
[04:19] ---
    I see. So that's why sweets are necessary.
[04:22] ---
    Thank you.
[04:26] ---
    She's coming back.
[04:29] ---
    Sorry. Someone started talking to me.
[04:31] ---
    He was telling me about
    this town and the festival.
[04:35] ---
    Who were you talking to?
[04:39] ---
    The person standing in the corner.
[04:43] ---
    And what did that man say?
[04:46] ---
    It seems someone called "Lost Jack"
    is the one who brings the dead people here.
[04:50] ---
    Lost Jack?
[04:52] ---
    Yeah. Legend has it that
    he appears on this island once a year.
[04:57] ---
    He's a mischievous spiritual being
    with a pumpkin head, a pointy hat and a cape.
[05:02] ---
    He appears in town on this day,
    with the souls of the townpeople's relatives.
[05:07] ---
    I bet all of these pumpkins
    are patterned after him, then.
[05:12] ---
    Since he's become so ingrained here,
    we may be able to meet him.
[05:17] ---
    Meet him?
    You mean that "Lost Jack?"
[05:20] ---
    Yeah.
[05:21] ---
    There's something I want to ask
    the guide of the deads' souls.
[05:24] ---
    "Why am I still here when all
    of my companions have disappeared?"
[05:29] ---
    I see. That's right, you are a ghost, Ferry.
[05:32] ---
    I totally forgot.
[05:34] ---
    After all, you even eat
    like a normal living person.
[05:37] ---
    Well, if we find Jack,
    maybe that mystery can be solved.
[05:42] ---
    I see...
[05:43] ---
    Man, this conversation got kinda weird.
[05:46] ---
    But isn't this a festival where
    people wear costumes and eat treats?
[05:51] ---
    That's what Cagliostro said.
[05:54] ---
    Huh? Well, I didn't lie.
[05:57] ---
    Brats dress up as Jack's brethren
    and "trick-or-treat" adults.
[06:01] ---
    It means "choose between having mischief
    done to you or giving me a sweet treat."
[06:05] ---
    Adults who don't want a prank
    pulled on them give the brats sweets.
[06:08] ---
    That's the kind of festival it is.
[06:10] ---
    I was told this is the only day
[06:12] ---
    where both adults and children
    can enjoy a festival 'til late at night.
[06:16] ---
    Oh, I also got a great
    candy store recommendation.
[06:19] ---
    I want to go!
[06:20] ---
    Then let's get into the spirit of Halloween.
[06:24] ---
    You're really enthusiastic today.
[06:26] ---
    I don't know if Jack is a spirit or a primal beast,
[06:29] ---
    but if we're looking for an indigenous creature,
    that's the fastest way.
[06:33] ---
    I see.
[06:34] ---
    Lyria, if you sense something,
    tell me right away.
[06:37] ---
    Understood!
[06:39] ---
    Boo!
[06:40] ---
    You're in for some mischief!
[06:41] ---
    Trick or treat! Trick or treat!
[06:44] ---
    W-W-What the–
[06:45] ---
    Children in costumes?
[06:48] ---
    They're cute.
[06:49] ---
    Yes!
[06:50] ---
    But why are they targeting us?
[06:52] ---
    Hey, give me some candy!
[06:54] ---
    Like I have candy!
[06:56] ---
    Now you're in for it!
[06:58] ---
    What did you do?!
[07:00] ---
    If we don't give them candy,
    they'll get us too?!
[07:04] ---
    What should we do?
    I have nothing to give them.
[07:07] ---
    Leave it to me.
[07:08] ---
    Hey!
[07:10] ---
    You need to be n-i-c-e to girls!
[07:20] ---
    You've got some guts...
[07:23] ---
    - Run!
    - Don't drag me!
[07:26] ---
    Get back here!
[07:30] ---
    Come back!
[07:44] ---
    They're gone.
[07:46] ---
    I didn't expect that.
[07:48] ---
    Sheesh, those brats went too far.
[07:50] ---
    Welcome!
[07:52] ---
    Oh, what happened to you?
[07:53] ---
    Some kids chased us.
[07:55] ---
    Oh dear, this must be some night for you.
[07:59] ---
    You can hang out here for a while.
[08:02] ---
    Thank you.
[08:04] ---
    This shop is...
[08:05] ---
    Wow! Wall-to-wall candy!
[08:09] ---
    It's beautiful!
[08:10] ---
    Yeah, and it all looks delicious!
[08:13] ---
    I can't decide what to buy!
[08:16] ---
    You have a lovely candy store here.
[08:18] ---
    Thank you.
[08:20] ---
    Is this your first festival here?
[08:23] ---
    Yes!
[08:24] ---
    I thought as much.
[08:25] ---
    I'm sure my husband would also have been
    pleased to have such cute customers.
[08:30] ---
    He died last year.
[08:33] ---
    He baked the most delicious cookies.
[08:36] ---
    Really?
[08:38] ---
    Oh, I'm sorry.
[08:40] ---
    Don't look at me like that!
[08:42] ---
    We're just a candy shop now,
    but my son and I are making a go at it.
[08:47] ---
    Besides, I'm sure my husband has
    also returned to town today.
[08:51] ---
    I see...
[08:52] ---
    The festival really has taken root in this town.
[08:56] ---
    Please, have one.
[08:58] ---
    Are you sure?
[08:59] ---
    Today is Halloween.
[09:01] ---
    Thank you!
[09:03] ---
    Here you go.
[09:07] ---
    It's yummy!
[09:09] ---
    Good grief...
[09:14] ---
    There they are!
[09:15] ---
    Oh, for goodness' sake!
    You leave these young ladies alone!
[09:19] ---
    Trick or treat!
[09:21] ---
    Okay, okay. Help yourselves.
[09:23] ---
    Candy!
[09:25] ---
    Oh, by the way, have you seen my son?
[09:27] ---
    Nope!
[09:29] ---
    Oh...
[09:30] ---
    Don't go overboard with the teasing, kids!
[09:36] ---
    You're looking for your son?
[09:38] ---
    I haven't seen him since this evening.
[09:41] ---
    I know it's the festival, but he isn't the type
    to take off on his own without saying anything.
[09:45] ---
    I see.
[09:46] ---
    And he's been acting oddly lately.
[09:50] ---
    As if he's hiding something from me.
[09:53] ---
    Today it seems he used the shop's oven.
[09:57] ---
    Even though we haven't used it
    since my husband passed away...
[10:01] ---
    Excuse me!
[10:02] ---
    If you like, we'll look for your son.
[10:05] ---
    No, that's okay.
    I'm sure he'll come home eventually.
[10:09] ---
    It's nighttime, but there are lights all through
    town and people everywhere, so he'll be okay.
[10:13] ---
    It's our thanks for the candy.
[10:15] ---
    Besides, it looks like you can't leave the store
    to go look for him yourself, ma'am.
[10:19] ---
    Jeez, what softies.
[10:21] ---
    That's just like Djeeta.
[10:22] ---
    Really?
[10:23] ---
    Well, enjoy the festival, but if you happen
    to see him, would you tell him to come home?
[10:28] ---
    Yes! Leave it to us!
[10:31] ---
    I think he's wearing a large green hat.
[10:35] ---
    Understood!
[11:08] ---
    We've looked for a while now,
    but he doesn't seem to be around.
[11:11] ---
    This is a pickle.
[11:13] ---
    Well, let's look around a little more.
[11:16] ---
    Who's that kid?
[11:18] ---
    She keeps staring at us.
[11:22] ---
    You want candy?
[11:23] ---
    No.
[11:25] ---
    I saw the boy you're looking for.
[11:28] ---
    He was heading up the hill this evening.
[11:31] ---
    The hill?
[11:33] ---
    Come to think of it, there's a grand old church.
[11:36] ---
    The festival used to be held there.
[11:39] ---
    How do you know that?
[11:41] ---
    Someone in town told me.
[11:43] ---
    A church...
    And it's outside of town?
[11:47] ---
    Doesn't it look scary?
[11:50] ---
    Let's head over there.
[11:53] ---
    The boy came here?
[11:55] ---
    This is the kind of place where
    you'd expect there to be ghosts, huh?
[11:59] ---
    Please don't talk like that!
[12:01] ---
    Don't worry.
    Even if something appears, I'm here.
[12:04] ---
    Right...
[12:06] ---
    Let's go inside and search for the boy.
[12:15] ---
    It's dark. You really think he's here?
[12:18] ---
    There are a lot of pumpkins in here too.
[12:20] ---
    This really is an old place.
[12:23] ---
    But considering the age,
    it's been kept really clean.
[12:30] ---
    That hat!
[12:31] ---
    Is he the candy shop lady's...
[12:37] ---
    Is something chasing him?!
[12:39] ---
    We have to help him!
[12:42] ---
    Now this is getting interesting!
[12:46] ---
    Monsters?!
[12:47] ---
    We're being attacked by pumpkins!
[12:50] ---
    Aether Blast!
[13:04] ---
    What? It's over already?
[13:06] ---
    No...
[13:07] ---
    I felt a primal beast's presence
    from those monsters.
[13:10] ---
    And the presence of a great power, as well.
[13:14] ---
    Great power?
[13:15] ---
    She's right.
    Lost Jack is here.
[13:19] ---
    What?!
[13:20] ---
    And going by the theme,
    I suppose those things were Jack's familiars.
[13:23] ---
    They were going after that kid. Is he okay?
[13:28] ---
    But from what I heard, Jack's pranks are–
[13:33] ---
    What's that?!
[13:34] ---
    Could that be Lost Jack?!
[13:37] ---
    That's not the image I had of him!
[13:42] ---
    Lyria!
[13:43] ---
    P-Please put me down!
[13:57] ---
    Lyria, are you all right?!
[13:58] ---
    Yes...
[14:00] ---
    Hey, what's going on here?
[14:03] ---
    The monsters wanted candy?
[14:07] ---
    There's the boy!
[14:10] ---
    Are you hurt?
[14:11] ---
    N-No. But...
[14:14] ---
    Jack was following me around.
[14:23] ---
    Your mother is worried about you.
[14:26] ---
    I know.
[14:27] ---
    There was something I had to show my dad.
[14:30] ---
    But your father is...
[14:33] ---
    Yeah. He got sick and died last year.
[14:37] ---
    But I might be able to see him tonight.
[14:40] ---
    He must have come back
    to this town with Jack.
[14:43] ---
    So that's why you came here, huh?
[14:46] ---
    I wanna be like Dad.
[14:49] ---
    I loved the cookies he made.
    They were so delicious.
[14:54] ---
    Yeah. That's what your mother said, too.
[14:57] ---
    Right? All my friends were crazy about them
[15:01] ---
    and lots of people from other islands
    came to buy his cookies.
[15:05] ---
    He sounds like a great father.
[15:07] ---
    I wanted so badly to
    bake the cookies I loved...
[15:11] ---
    So much that I studied how Dad did it
    until I finally succeeded!
[15:14] ---
    Wow! You made a lot!
    I can tell you worked hard.
[15:18] ---
    So that's why you want
    to show them to your father.
[15:21] ---
    Yeah.
[15:22] ---
    S-So...
[15:23] ---
    I said you can't have these!
[15:26] ---
    I told Jack about Dad,
    but he doesn't understand.
[15:30] ---
    So what's the sense of meeting Jack?
[15:32] ---
    I see. It's okay!
[15:35] ---
    Leave it to me!
[15:37] ---
    And who do you think you are?
[15:45] ---
    This boy's father is in town?
[15:50] ---
    Really?
[15:51] ---
    All right! Then let's look for him!
[15:53] ---
    However, like everyone else in town,
    you guys can't see the souls of dead folks.
[16:00] ---
    True, I didn't see any of those people.
[16:04] ---
    I sensed their presence,
    but I couldn't see them.
[16:09] ---
    So what will you do?
[16:14] ---
    Um, he says he'll go with us.
[16:18] ---
    Hey, wait!
[16:20] ---
    If he went with us to town,
    wouldn't it cause a panic?
[16:23] ---
    Everyone knows who Jack is,
    so I think it would be okay.
[16:27] ---
    Well, why not?
[16:29] ---
    Tonight's festival is about both
    the living and dead making merry, right?
[16:50] ---
    Has something happened?
[16:55] ---
    My son!
[17:00] ---
    - Jack!
    - If you'd please!
[17:15] ---
    Grandpa!
[17:17] ---
    Honey...
[17:19] ---
    It's been too long!
[17:21] ---
    I wonder where this boy's father is.
[17:24] ---
    I have an idea. The plaza.
[17:38] ---
    Dad...
[17:41] ---
    Dad!
[17:46] ---
    I made these!
[17:50] ---
    This man told me earlier
    that he used to make sweets.
[17:55] ---
    So I suspected he was the one.
[17:57] ---
    Where were you?
    I was worried! And...
[18:04] ---
    No way... Darling.
[18:06] ---
    Mom, I made these cookies!
[18:10] ---
    I wanted to show them to Dad.
[18:13] ---
    Because I'm gonna have
    a sweets shop when I grow up!
[18:27] ---
    How is it?
[18:29] ---
    It's a little hard, but the taste is
    the same as what your father made.
[18:36] ---
    I'm glad he got to see his father.
[18:38] ---
    Yeah.
[18:41] ---
    I want all of you to have some too!
    It's my thanks for helping me find Dad.
[18:46] ---
    Sure!
[18:49] ---
    You too, Jack. Thank you!
[18:56] ---
    Delicious!
[18:58] ---
    - It's really good.
    - Yeah.
[19:00] ---
    Hey, Dad, I'm gonna do my best
    working with Mom at the shop!
[19:04] ---
    So watch me, okay?
[19:11] ---
    His dad, huh?
[19:13] ---
    We can see them too.
[19:15] ---
    Yeah.
[19:54] ---
    The lights are gathering in Jack's lantern.
[19:57] ---
    Are they all going home?
[20:12] ---
    Jack!
[20:14] ---
    Thank you!
[20:21] ---
    The mischievous Lost Jack
    stirs up the town once a year,
[20:26] ---
    but at the end, he leaves everyone
    with a smile and goes home.
[20:30] ---
    And they lived happily ever after, so to speak.
[20:33] ---
    I thought that after people die,
    their souls move on, leaving nothing behind...
[20:39] ---
    But now I see that people live on
    in the hearts of their loved ones.
[20:44] ---
    Well, that's how it works, more or less.
[20:48] ---
    By the way, did you have a chance
    to ask your question, Ferry?
[20:52] ---
    No, but that's okay.
[20:55] ---
    I don't think Jack knows about my case.
[20:58] ---
    Probably not.
    He didn't show any interest in you, Ferry.
[21:02] ---
    True.
[21:03] ---
    Then maybe Ferry is...
[21:06] ---
    Different from those dead people.
[21:09] ---
    But what am I?
[21:11] ---
    Too bad it's still a mystery.
[21:13] ---
    But I'm glad I found out about this festival.
[21:16] ---
    Isn't it touching how both
    the living and dead are happy to be reunited?
[21:21] ---
    Yeah.
[21:23] ---
    I guess the festival is over now.
[21:26] ---
    It was a strange but wonderful festival.
[21:29] ---
    I'd like to go back to
    that candy shop sometime!
[21:32] ---
    Me too!
[21:33] ---
    Maybe next time
    we'll be able to have cookies too!
[21:35] ---
    Right!
[21:37] ---
    What kind of costume
    should I wear next time?
[21:41] ---
    You had a good time too, huh, Cagliostro?
[21:44] ---
    I can't complain about the pursuit of cuteness
    that's different from my everyday cuteness.
[21:48] ---
    Here we go again!
[21:50] ---
    Let's come back to this town again,
    on the same day!
[21:54] ---
    We can see Jack and the others again, too!

    Next episode, "The Mist-shrouded Island."
