SIGN    Mr. Villain's Day Off
[01:49] evergreen-oak boy
    She's always by herself,
    gazing at the people who visit the park.
[02:03] evergreen-oak boy
    You can only see her for a short time,
    while the cherry tree is in bloom.
[02:17] evergreen-oak boy
    Wh-Who's that old guy?!
[02:21] evergreen-oak boy
    He's talking with her...
[02:40] evergreen-oak boy
    Hey, old dude!
[02:41] Mr. Villain
    What?
[03:02] evergreen-oak boy
    Old dude, you get to talk with
    the cherry blossom girl?
[03:06] Mr. Villain
    Huh?
[03:07] Mr. Villain
    I don't know where you came from, kid,
    but don't go throwing sticks at—
[03:11] evergreen-oak boy
    Here!
[03:12] evergreen-oak boy
    Give this to her!
[03:16] Mr. Villain
    What's this clod supposed to be?
[03:18] evergreen-oak boy
    A triangle!
[03:20] evergreen-oak boy
    She likes triangles, doesn't she?
[03:22] evergreen-oak boy
    I was watching.
[03:42] evergreen-oak boy
    How'd it go?
[03:43] Mr. Villain
    Do it yourself next time, brat.
[03:45] evergreen-oak boy
    Did she like it?!
[03:46] Mr. Villain
    Listen when I'm talking.
[03:50] Mr. Villain
    Though I suppose she was pleased.
[03:52] evergreen-oak boy
    Really?!
[03:53] Mr. Villain
    She was also puzzled.
[03:57] evergreen-oak boy
    While the cherry tree's in full bloom,
[04:00] evergreen-oak boy
    I've gotten a smidge closer to her
    thanks to this old guy who stopped by.
[04:16] evergreen-oak boy
    Oh, hey, old dude!
[04:18] Mr. Villain
    At least call me "mister."
[04:20] Mr. Villain
    You're always here, brat.
    You do go home, don't you?
[04:25] Mr. Villain
    Also, stop mass-producing
    these inedible triangles.
[04:29] evergreen-oak boy
    What's an edible triangle?
[04:34] Mr. Villain
    Use this.
[04:35] Mr. Villain
    This is the last time I'm helping you, got it?
[04:40] evergreen-oak boy
    What's this?
[04:41] Mr. Villain
    A string telephone.
[04:42] evergreen-oak boy
    String...?
[04:45] cherry-tree nymph
    Hello.
[04:47] cherry-tree nymph
    Thank you for all the triangles.
[04:53] cherry-tree nymph
    Hello?
[04:56] evergreen-oak boy
    This is the first time
    I've heard her voice...
[05:06] evergreen-oak boy
    It's almost time for the
    cherry blossoms to scatter.
[05:08] evergreen-oak boy
    And I won't be here much longer either.
[05:13] evergreen-oak boy
    Uh...
[05:14] evergreen-oak boy
    I've...
[05:16] evergreen-oak boy
    been watching you all this time.
[05:18] evergreen-oak boy
    I still don't know you at all...
[05:22] evergreen-oak boy
    but listen!
[05:34] Mr. Villain
    I said that was the last time I'd help,
[05:38] Mr. Villain
    so I'm just seeing how things play out.
[05:45] Mr. Villain
    The tree where I always saw him is gone.
[06:13] cherry-tree nymph
    Even if I say hello,
    I no longer hear anything.
[06:18] cherry-tree nymph
    They took him out of the ground
    and took him away.
[06:22] cherry-tree nymph
    He said he's going to become a promenade.
[06:26] cherry-tree nymph
    I miss him.
[06:30] cherry-tree nymph
    Even if I bloom next year,
    I'll never see him again.
[07:05] passerby A
    The cherry blossoms have fallen already.
[07:07] passerby B
    Wasn't that one kinda early?
[07:09] passerby A
    Hey, that bench is new!
[07:11] passerby B
    You're right!
[07:14] evergreen-oak boy
    Huh?
[07:15] evergreen-oak boy
    My...
[07:18] evergreen-oak boy
    My body's become a people seat.
[07:23] evergreen-oak boy
    That's her tree!
[07:25] Mr. Villain
    Is that you, brat?
[07:29] evergreen-oak boy
    What're you doing here, old dude?
[07:31] Mr. Villain
    That's my line.
[07:32] evergreen-oak boy
    Looks like I'm this seat now.
[07:35] evergreen-oak boy
    Where is she, though?
[07:37] Mr. Villain
    Who?
[07:38] evergreen-oak boy
    The cherry tree girl.
[07:39] Mr. Villain
    She already scattered.
[07:41] evergreen-oak boy
    Oh.
[07:42] evergreen-oak boy
    Too bad I didn't get here a bit sooner.
[07:47] evergreen-oak boy
    Wow, cool.
[07:49] evergreen-oak boy
    I can go right up to it.
[07:51] Mr. Villain
    There's no telling if it'll bloom next year.
[07:55] evergreen-oak boy
    That's okay.
[07:58] evergreen-oak boy
    Before, all I could do was watch.
[08:01] evergreen-oak boy
    But I got to hear her voice,
    and even though I look different now,
[08:05] evergreen-oak boy
    look how close I am!
[08:08] evergreen-oak boy
    I'll just keep waiting...
[08:11] evergreen-oak boy
    until a spring comes when she blossoms.

[08:45] Mr. Villain
    Is that a kitty I hear?
[08:48] Mr. Villain
    What if it's out here freezing in this rain?
[08:57] Mr. Villain
    Kitty...
[09:02] Mr. Villain
    Kitty!
SIGN    Please adopt me
[09:10] Mr. Villain
    This isn't what I was expecting.
[09:16] Mr. Villain
    It's modeled after a kitty,
    but it's not a kitty.
[09:20] Mr. Villain
    Must be a robot.
[09:24] Mr. Villain
    Is it from Earth?
[09:25] Mr. Villain
    No, maybe some other planet?
[09:33] C-018
    Human...
[09:34] Mr. Villain
    It spoke.
[09:36] Mr. Villain
    And it referred to me as a human.
[09:38] Mr. Villain
    Something tells me I shouldn't get involved.
[10:45] C-018
    Human... what are you... doing here?
[10:49] Mr. Villain
    Just passing through.
[10:51] Mr. Villain
    What the heck are you doing here?
[10:54] C-018
    Do I... look like I'm... doing something?
[10:58] C-018
    I'm just... waiting for my...
     energy to run out.
[11:04] Mr. Villain
    I see.
[11:07] Mr. Villain
    Sorry to bother you.
[11:09] C-018
    Hey.
[11:12] C-018
    This.
[11:14] Mr. Villain
    It'll rain again tomorrow.
    Feel free to use it.
[11:28] (Flashback) researcher
    Experiment C-018 is to be discarded.
[11:39] C-018
    Discarded?
[11:42] C-018
    Abandoned...?
[11:50] C-018
    If I could defeat at least one human...
[11:56] C-018
    Human...
[12:06] C-018
    What are you here for this time?!
[12:08] Mr. Villain
    You make it sound so horrible.
[12:10] Mr. Villain
    I just hooked you up to this battery.
[12:13] C-018
    I can move now.
[12:17] C-018
    Human...
[12:20] C-018
    That's right.
[12:22] C-018
    Human!
[12:28] Mr. Villain
    That's where your mouth is?
[12:31] C-018
    Nothing's coming out.
[12:32] C-018
    Wh-Why not?
[12:34] C-018
    I'll do it again!
[12:38] Mr. Villain
    Hey.
[12:40] researcher
    Experiment C-018 is to be discarded.
SIGN    Discarded
[12:48] C-018
    I really am useless...
[13:03] C-018
    What's this?
SIGN    Cat Food
[13:05] Mr. Villain
    It's cat food.
[13:06] Mr. Villain
    Didn't you bite me before
    because you were hungry?
[13:10] C-018
    Not even close!
[13:11] C-018
    Besides, C-018 cannot ingest food!
[13:16] Mr. Villain
    I see.
[13:18] C-018
    What are you up to, trying to win me over?!
[13:24] Mr. Villain
    What am I "up to"?
[13:27] Mr. Villain
    I'd feel pretty guilty just standing by and
    watching something modeled after a kitty die.
[13:36] C-018
    I wouldn't mind thanking you
    for the umbrella and battery.
[13:39] Mr. Villain
    Huh?
[13:40] C-018
    If you don't want to, that's fine.
[13:49] Mr. Villain
    It's smooth instead of fluffy.

[14:11] (Flashback) Rooney
    I'd like to ask you a favor, General.
SIGN    A few hours ago
[14:17] (Flashback) Rooney
    If you encounter a suspicious object that
    doesn't seem to be from our planet or Earth,
[14:21] (Flashback) Rooney
    could you let me know?
[14:22] (Flashback) Mr. Villain
    Huh? What's this about?
[14:26] (Flashback) Rooney
    It looks like we aren't
    the only outsiders targeting Earth.
[14:30] (Flashback) Rooney
    Our competition might be developing weaponry.
[14:34] (Flashback) Rooney
    It's possible they've already
    sent some to Earth.
[14:38] (Flashback) Mr. Villain
    Why didn't you mention this earlier
    at the executive meeting?
[14:43] (Flashback) Rooney
    I still don't have enough
    evidence for a report.
[14:47] (Flashback) Rooney
    It's really nothing more
    than a remote possibility.
[14:51] (Flashback) Mr. Villain
    How is this a favor?
[14:53] (Flashback) Mr. Villain
    More like additional work.
[14:55] (Flashback) Rooney
    You'll do it, General?!
[14:57] (Flashback) Mr. Villain
    However, if I find anything outside working
    hours, I'm treating it as overtime.
[15:04] (Flashback) Rooney
    Of course, General!
[15:14] Mr. Villain
    It's this thing.
[15:16] Mr. Villain
    When Rooney told me, I wasn't
    thinking it would be a robot weapon.
[15:21] Mr. Villain
    But any way you look at it,
    this has gotta be the weapon.
[15:25] Mr. Villain
    It said it didn't bite me out of hunger,
[15:29] Mr. Villain
    meaning there's a good chance something
    was loaded into those fang-shaped spikes.
[15:35] Mr. Villain
    Even if it's not all that dangerous,
[15:37] Mr. Villain
    I should take it back to HQ as a specimen.
[15:46] Mr. Villain
    All done charging?
[15:48] C-018
    All done.
[15:57] C-018
    You unplugged it!
[15:58] C-018
    Nobody asked you! I can do it myself!
[16:03] Mr. Villain
    What the hell're you saying?
    You couldn't reach it.
[16:08] Mr. Villain
    This is what I get for being nice.
[16:25] Mr. Villain
    Now what?
[16:27] Mr. Villain
    Could it be preparing for some attack?
[16:30] Mr. Villain
    I should just hurry and take it to—
[16:32] C-018
    Hey.
[16:36] C-018
    You're not going to pet me?
SIGN    He didn't see any harm
[16:41] Mr. Villain
    Maybe it's not a weapon,
    but an extraterrestrial robot pet?
[16:46] Mr. Villain
    Well, it might not be dangerous,
    but I have a job to do.
[16:51] Mr. Villain
    Hey.
[16:53] Mr. Villain
    Care to take a walk with me?
[16:56] C-018
    I guess I'll have to, if you insist.
[17:01] Mr. Villain
    Not only did I notify Rooney,
    I brought it to headquarters...
[17:07] C-018
    You...
[17:09] C-018
    You're from another planet?
[17:13] Mr. Villain
    I don't recall ever saying
    I was an Earthling.
SIGN    Silence...
[17:20] Mr. Villain
    Sorry this turned into me deceiving you,
     but I have my own job to do.
[17:27] Mr. Villain
    This should be a simple inspection,
    and you'll soon be back—
SIGN    SENSE OF GUILT
[17:31] Mr. Villain
    Hey!
[17:33] Rooney
    General, you brought it in!
[17:36] Rooney
    You always do such quick work.
[17:38] Rooney
    Thank you. I know it was dangerous.
[17:40] Mr. Villain
    I told you the threat level was low.
[17:43] Rooney
    I know, but we can't be certain
     until we examine it.
[17:49] Rooney
    Yes, that form would make many
    Earthlings lower their guard.
[17:52] Mr. Villain
    Rooney, will this—
[17:54] Rooney
    Okay, you can leave it in our hands.
[17:57] Rooney
    I'll call when we're done!
[17:58] Mr. Villain
    Hey!
[17:59] Mr. Villain
    Hey, listen!
[18:00] Rooney
    Tell me later, General!

SIGN    1 hour later
[18:17] backgrounder Z
    I hear Rooney is investigating
    some alien weapon.
[18:20] backgrounder B
    Aha, the General must be on alert.
[18:34] Mr. Villain
    Hey, Rooney, how much longer will it take?
[18:37] Rooney
    General?
[18:38] Rooney
    You're so impatient.
[18:41] Rooney
    I think I'd like two more hours.
[18:53] Mr. Villain
    All right...
[18:54] Rooney
    No need to be so worried. I'm fine.
[18:57] Mr. Villain
    I'm not worried about you.
[19:00] Rooney
    There you go again!
[19:01] Rooney
    But hey, like you said,
    it doesn't appear to be dangerous.
[19:06] Rooney
    Welp, gotta get back to it!
[19:07] Mr. Villain
    Yeah.
[19:14] backgrounder B
    Excuse me, sir.
[19:17] backgrounder B
    I'd like to ask you something.
[19:19] Mr. Villain
    Sure.
[19:37] Rooney
    General? Hello?
[19:40] Rooney
    General, can you hear me?
[19:43] Mr. Villain
    I wasn't listening.
[19:45] Rooney
    Come on.
[19:46] Rooney
    I asked you to drop by because
    I'm done with the investigation.
[19:57] Mr. Villain
    Surprisingly, I might have developed
    an attachment to that robot.
[20:03] Mr. Villain
    I knew dismantlement was a possibility.
[20:06] Mr. Villain
    A necessary sacrifice for our home world.
[20:17] Rooney
    Oh, General!
[20:24] Rooney
    As soon as I reassembled this little guy,
     it started freaking out.
[20:28] Rooney
    Can I take it apart again?
[20:30] Rooney
    I may have screwed up somehow.
[20:32] C-018
    No! Stop it!
[20:36] C-018
    This guy tricked C-018,
     but he's still better than you!
[20:42] Rooney
    Don't be mean.
    I'm the one who cleaned you up.
[20:47] Mr. Villain
    What are you talking about?
[20:49] Rooney
    I checked out all its parts and features,
    plus cleaned what was dirty.
[20:58] Rooney
    We got all the data we needed, of course,
[21:01] Rooney
    and upon concluding that it poses
    no danger, we reassembled it.
[21:07] Mr. Villain
    Why was the dismembered head just lying there?
[21:10] Rooney
    I was doing an internal check
    while cleaning the joints.
[21:13] Rooney
    They get dirty easily.
[21:15] Mr. Villain
    That's a damned misleading thing to do.
[21:18] Rooney
    Huh? Why're you mad?
[21:21] Mr. Villain
    What happens to it now?
[21:25] Rooney
    That depends what the executive council
    decides, but it's practically a robot pet.
[21:31] Mr. Villain
    I knew it.
[21:32] Rooney
    We could keep an eye on it at HQ.
[21:35] Rooney
    But it seems to like you.
[21:38] Rooney
    I think another option would be
    for you to look after it at your place.
[21:43] Rooney
    What say you?
