SIGN    Mr. Villain's Day Off
[01:54] Mr. Villain
    It's cold.
[02:07] Mr. Villain
    It's profoundly cold.
[02:11] Mr. Villain
    But if I stay in bed like this,
    my precious day off will pass me by.
[02:33] Mr. Villain
    It's time.
SIGN    Adorable baby pandas
[03:05] (Flashback) Rooney
    Hey, hey! That was you at the store, right?
[03:09] (Flashback) Rooney
    Hey, hey! It's lunchtime!
[03:11] (Flashback) Rooney
    Wanna come with me to the cafeteria?
[03:29] Rooney
    Oh, you finally answered—
[03:30] Mr. Villain
    You try my patience.
[03:32] Mr. Villain
    Did you forget I told you not
    to call me on my day off, Rooney?
[03:37] Rooney
    Of course I didn't, General!
[03:41] Rooney
    Say, you're not showing up on my end.
[03:44] Rooney
    Wonder why. Is it busted?
[03:45] Mr. Villain
    Who knows?
[03:46] Rooney
    Oh, I bet you're doing it on purpose.
[03:48] Mr. Villain
    This call ends in two seconds
    if it's about nothing.
[03:52] Rooney
    Wait! Wait!
[03:53] Rooney
    I need to talk to you about an Earth monster!
[03:56] Mr. Villain
    A monster?
[03:59] Mr. Villain
    You've got five minutes.
[04:01] Rooney
    Thank you!
[04:02] Rooney
    So, I've been looking into some talk
    about a monster that appears in the winter
[04:07] Rooney
    and occupies human dwellings.
[04:10] Mr. Villain
    Is it powerful?
[04:12] Rooney
    Very powerful.
[04:15] Rooney
    It uses warmth to lure in humans,
    then traps them in its belly.
[04:21] Mr. Villain
    It eats humans, does it?
[04:24] Mr. Villain
    That could work in our favor.
[04:26] Rooney
    Yes. I was also wondering
    if we could use it somehow.
[04:31] Rooney
    But... I let it get the better of me.
[04:35] Rooney
    It's already...
[04:36] Rooney
    devoured me from the waist down.
[04:40] Mr. Villain
    Why didn't you say so sooner?!
[04:42] Mr. Villain
    Where are you right now?!
[04:44] Rooney
    The control room.
[04:46] Mr. Villain
    Headquarters has already been breached?!
[04:50] Mr. Villain
    Give me a full report!
[04:52] Rooney
    You're coming in, General?!
[04:55] Mr. Villain
    Of course I am!
[04:57] Mr. Villain
    Try to hold out until I get there!
[04:59] Rooney
    Oh, and hey! Could you buy
    some mandarin oranges?
[05:02] Mr. Villain
    Mandarin oranges?
[05:04] Mr. Villain
    Apparently, that's what you
    do with this monster.
[05:07] Mr. Villain
    Yet I completely forgot to prepare some.
[05:12] Mr. Villain
    So you distract the enemy
    with its favorite food?
[05:15] Mr. Villain
    How could you forget to prepare a decoy?
[05:17] Mr. Villain
    But rejoice!
SIGN    Yumeiro Mandarin Oranges
[05:19] Mr. Villain
    I just bought a bunch of oranges yesterday!
[05:23] (Flashback) middle-aged woman
    We always go through
    mandarin oranges in no time,
[05:27] (Flashback) middle-aged woman
    so I buy them by the box.
[05:28] (Flashback) Mr. Villain
    Makes sense.
[05:30] Mr. Villain
    Rooney isn't combat personnel.
[05:32] Mr. Villain
    He stands no chance in an attack!
[05:34] Mr. Villain
    Damn you!
[05:36] Mr. Villain
    Damn you, Earthlings!
[05:45] Mr. Villain
    Rooney!
[05:53] Rooney
    General! I'm so glad you've come!
[05:57] Rooney
    Teach me how to free myself
    from this wintertime monster!
[06:03] Rooney
    I'll get cold if I get up, but I've needed
    to go to the bathroom for ages now!
[06:07] Rooney
    What do I do, General?!
[06:13] Rooney
    You're well-versed in human culture,
    so you must know a way.
[06:18] Rooney
    Oh? You know, I haven't seen you
    with your hair down in forever.
SIGN    KONK
[06:23] Rooney
    Ouch!
[06:32] Rooney
    Behold the winter monster's final form!
[06:36] Mr. Villain
    Less talking, more peeling.

[12:56] Red
    How could this be?
[12:58] Mugi
    Red, you wrapped it too tightly.
[13:01] Sora
    When you do that,
    it forms a vacuum that flattens it.
[13:04] Sora
    I feel sorry for the meat bun.
[13:07] Mugi
    I'm sure even it wanted to be eaten
    in its original fluffy form.
[13:13] Sora
    And now it's been reduced to this.
[13:17] Mugi/Sora
    Poor thing.
[13:20] Red
    Sorry, meat bun!
[13:22] Red
    This is all my fault!
[13:24] Blue
    What a fuss to make over a single meat bun.
[13:27] Blue
    And stop picking on Red.
[13:30] Blue
    If you two want meat buns,
    I'll warm them up for you.
[13:33] Mugi
    No thanks, Blue. They come out
    all hard when you do them.
[13:36] Sora
    You both suck at this.
[13:38] Blue
    Gimme a break!
[13:41] Mugi
    Actually, we have this amazing thing.
[13:44] Sora
    We always use this to get fluffy meat buns.
[13:48] Blue
    You should've said so!
[13:57] Mr. Villain
    To think such a superb device exists...
[14:00] Mr. Villain
    It's so fluffy.

    I'd like to keep it up, as long as
    there are children who believe in me.

    Even if I'm a fairy tale
    they naturally forget as they grow up,
[20:18] old man
    I'm alive in their hearts for as
    long as they believe I exist.

    I want to grant their little
    wishes, one by one.

    Old man...
[20:38] old man
    And sometimes, I get to meet
    kind young ones like yourself.

    Thank you for today,
    child of a distant star.

    Oddly enough, my muscles feel sore.
[21:23] Mr. Villain
    Might as well put away the bedding.
