[01:32] Catarina
    Perfect for working the fields!
SIGN    Episode 2
    A Prince Challenged Me to a Fight...
[01:35] Catarina
    It's been a few months since my memories
    from my past life returned,

[01:38] Catarina
    and taking care of the fields
    has become my hobby.

[01:42] Keith
    Need any help, Sister?
[01:43] Geordo
    I'll help, too, Catarina.
[01:46] Catarina
    Thanks, you two!
[01:50] Catarina
    They're wilting...
[01:52] Catarina
    But why? I've been giving
    them water and fertilizer.
[01:55] Keith
    Cheer up, Sister.
[01:57] Both
    Here, stand u—
[02:01] Keith
    You don't need to worry
    about my sister, Prince Geordo.
[02:04] Keith
    Also, there's no need to take
    the time to come by every day.
[02:08] Geordo
    I'm sure there's no need for you to cling
    so close to her all the time, either, Keith.
[02:15] Catarina
    They've become such good friends.
[02:24] Dad
    Catarina...
[02:25] Dad
    You've received
    an invitation to a tea party.
[02:28] Dad
    Would you like to go?
[02:29] Catarina
    Tea party?
[02:30] Mom
    She mustn't go, darling!
[02:32] Mom
    Just look at her!
[02:33] Mom
    She hasn't learned any manners at all!
[02:36] Dad
    W-Well, that's true...
[02:38] Dad
    But perhaps she can learn
    through actual experience.
[02:42] Mom
    Yes, I do agree, but...
[02:44] Dad
    I know!
[02:45] ---
    Why don't we send Keith along with her?
[02:47] Dad
    We won't have to worry if he's with her.
[02:50] Keith
    I'd be glad to go with her.
[02:52] Mom
    Thank you! That'll be a big help!
[02:55] Catarina
    Wait... I'm the older sister.
[02:57] Catarina
    Why can't I be trusted
    to go anywhere without Keith?
[03:03] Eldest
    Thank you for attending our tea party today.
[03:08] Catarina
    And thank you for inviting us.
[03:12] Second
    Welcome to our home.
[03:14] Third
    Please, make yourselves comfortable.
[03:16] Catarina
    Thank you.
[03:22] Mary
    I-It's a pleasure to meet you.
[03:24] Mary
    I'm the fourth daughter, M-Mary Hunt.
[03:28] Catarina
    Nice to meet you, Lady Mary.
[03:34] Eldest
    Please, come inside.
[03:36] Catarina
    Oh... Of course.
[03:43] Girl1
    So you're Lady Catarina Claes?
[03:46] Girl1
    The one who's engaged to Prince Geordo?
[03:48] Girl2
    I've heard all about you.
[03:50] Girl2
    It's an honor to meet you.
[03:52] Catarina
    Yes...
[03:53] Girl3
    Lady Catarina, allow me to introduce myself!
[03:55] Girl4
    Me, too!
[03:56] Catarina
    Oh, certainly.
[04:00] Catarina
    I'm exhausted just from greeting everyone.
[04:04] Catarina
    I guess they're all too busy talking to eat.
[04:10] Catarina
    What a waste.
[04:12] ---
    If I had a bag, I'd take all of these home.
[04:15] Keith
    Sister?
[04:17] Keith
    Why do you look so lost in thought?
[04:19] Catarina
    U-Um...
[04:22] Keith
    Don't tell me...
[04:23] Keith
    you're thinking about taking
    all those desserts home.
[04:27] Catarina
    That's incredible! How did you know?!
[04:30] Keith
    How I knew isn't the issue here.
[04:32] Keith
    If you do that, the dignity of
    the Claes family will come into question.
[04:35] Keith
    Besides, you'll be in big trouble
    if Mother finds out.
[04:39] Keith
    Didn't she just forbid you
    from eating sweets after
[04:42] Keith
    you ate a cookie that had fallen on
[04:43] Keith
    the floor, saying something
    about a "3-second rule"?
[04:46] Catarina
    Th-Then I have no other choice.
[04:48] Catarina
    If I can't take them home,
    I'll have to eat them all now!
[04:53] Keith
    Sister, please!
[04:55] Keith
    I think you've had enough...
[04:57] Keith
    Huh?!
[05:02] Keith
    A-Are you all right?
[05:03] Catarina
    N-Nothing's wrong!
[05:05] Catarina
    Just going to powder my nose!
[05:07] Keith
    Sister?!
[05:11] Catarina
    Glad I made it in time.
[05:13] Catarina
    I guess I ate a bit too much.
[05:32] Mary
    L-Lady Catarina?
[05:33] Mary
    What brings you out here?
[05:35] Catarina
    Oh, um... I just wanted a little fresh air.
[05:38] Catarina
    What about you, Lady Mary?
    What brings you here?
[05:41] Mary
    I don't like noisy,
    crowded places very much.
[05:45] Catarina
    She almost seems like she's afraid.
[05:47] Catarina
    Because I have such an evil face?!
[05:51] Catarina
    Th-This garden sure is incredible.
[05:53] Catarina
    There are so many flowers.
    It's really beautiful!
[05:56] Catarina
    And they're all blooming so brilliantly.
[05:59] Catarina
    You must have a very skilled gardener.
[06:02] Catarina
    Oh, I know!
[06:03] Catarina
    Hey, Lady Mary, would you
    introduce me to your gardener?
[06:07] Mary
    Huh?
[06:07] Catarina
    There are some questions
    I'd like to ask
[06:10] Catarina
    someone who can cultivate such pretty flowers!
[06:13] Mary
    I-It's me.
[06:15] Catarina
    Huh?
[06:15] Mary
    I'm the one who takes care of these flowers.
[06:19] Catarina
    Incredible...
[06:20] Catarina
    How do you do it?!
[06:22] Catarina
    Do you have a secret trick?!
[06:23] Catarina
    Or is the secret in the dirt itself?!
[06:25] Mary
    U-Um, Lady Catarina...
[06:29] Catarina
    I'm sorry!
[06:32] Mary
    F-Fields?
[06:34] Mary
    You raise farm fields?
[06:36] Catarina
    I've been raising vegetables,
[06:38] Catarina
    but for some reason, they're wilting.
[06:40] Catarina
    I don't know why, or what I should do.
[06:43] Mary
    I do wish I could help you,
[06:45] Mary
    but I've never raised vegetables before.
[06:48] Mary
    I can't give any advice
    after just hearing what you...
[06:51] Catarina
    Then would you please come to my house
    and take a look at them?
[06:55] Mary
    Huh?!
[06:57] Catarina
    Over here, Lady Mary!
[07:01] Mary
    You really are raising farm fields.
[07:04] Catarina
    I am!
[07:05] Catarina
    Look. This is what I was talking about.
[07:07] Mary
    They do seem to be wilting.
[07:09] Catarina
    I thought it was the heat,
[07:12] Catarina
    but the vegetables our gardener,
    Tom, is raising are doing fine.
[07:16] Mary
    Maybe...
[07:18] Catarina
    Do you have an idea?
[07:19] Mary
    W-Well, I can't be sure, but...
[07:24] Mary
    It may be that they aren't receiving
    enough water and fertilizer.
[07:29] Mary
    Let's try moving them somewhere
    else and see how they do.
[07:32] Catarina
    Okay!
[07:56] Catarina
    Look, Mary! They're doing so much better!
[07:59] Catarina
    And it's all because of you! Thank you!
[08:02] Mary
    I-I didn't...
[08:03] Catarina
    You have a green thumb for sure!
[08:06] Mary
    A green thumb?
[08:07] Catarina
    That's what you say about people
    who have a talent for raising plants!
[08:11] Catarina
    Your green thumb makes you extra special
    and extra amazing, Mary!
[08:17] Mary
    I'm... special?
[08:21] Mary
    Um, Lady Catarina...
[08:23] Catarina
    Yes?
[08:24] Mary
    I know the vegetables are doing better now,
[08:27] Mary
    but can I still come
    and visit again sometime?
[08:30] Catarina
    You're more than welcome to!
    Come visit anytime!
[08:35] Mary
    Okay!
[08:39] Catarina
    See you soon!
[08:42] Keith
    Lady Mary seems more cheerful than before.
[08:44] Catarina
    That's true. She must
    have been so afraid of me before
[08:48] Catarina
    because I have such an evil face!
[08:51] Keith
    I... I don't think that's why.
[08:54] Keith
    She was acting that way toward everyone.
[08:57] Catarina
    Really?
[08:58] Keith
    Yeah.
[08:59] ---
    I bet she's going through things at home
[09:01] Keith
    that have made her lose her confidence.
[09:04] Catarina
    Like what?
[09:05] Keith
    I heard at the tea party
[09:07] Keith
    that Lady Mary's mother
    was Marquess Hunt's second wife,
[09:11] Keith
    and the rest of the family
    wasn't happy about the remarriage.
[09:15] Keith
    Lady Mary's older sisters
    treated her like a nuisance,
[09:18] Keith
    and they've verbally
    abused her all her life.
[09:21] Keith
    I think, after her mother passed away,
[09:23] Keith
    she felt like she had nowhere to belong.
[09:28] Catarina
    So that's why...
[09:30] Keith
    But I'm sure Lady Mary is
    going to be all right now.
[09:33] Catarina
    You can tell, Keith?
[09:34] Keith
    I suppose I can.
[09:37] Keith
    Incidentally, Lady Mary's engagement
    to Prince Alan should be settled soon.
[09:42] Catarina
    Oh, really?
[09:46] Catarina
    Wait... Mary's engagement to whom?
[09:49] Keith
    Prince Alan. Prince Geordo's twin brother.
[09:54] Catarina
    That's the third doom flag!
[09:57] ChairmanC
    We will now commence our strategy meeting.
[10:00] FearlessC
    Alan is one of the conquerable
    routes in the game!
[10:02] FearlessC
    Befriending the girl who's engaged to him
[10:04] FearlessC
    would be like walking right up
    to our own doom flag!
[10:08] GlassesC
    Let's review the information we have.
[10:11] GlassesC
    Because Alan was in poor health
    until he turned five,
[10:14] GlassesC
    he had a sheltered upbringing,
    making him spoiled and egotistical.
SIGN    Alan Stuart
SIGN    Was in poor health until age five
[10:17] GlassesC
    He feels a deep rivalry, as well as an
    inferiority complex, toward his brother Geordo.
SIGN    Spoiled and egotistical
SIGN    Deep rivalry and inferiority complex
    toward his brother Geordo
[10:22] GlassesC
    But when he meets the heroine in the game,
[10:24] GlassesC
    his heart takes a positive turn
[10:26] GlassesC
    and his barely-existent relationship
    with Geordo improves.
[10:31] HappyC
    That's such a nice story!
[10:33] FearlessC
    This is no time to feel moved!
[10:35] GlassesC
    No need to worry.
[10:37] GlassesC
    Catarina barely appears
    in Alan's route at all.
[10:40] GlassesC
    The rival who appears in her place
[10:42] GlassesC
    is Alan's loving fiancée, Mary.
SIGN    Mary Hunt
[10:44] SpinelessC
    Th-Then is Mary going to
    end up either exiled or killed?
SIGN    Adores Alan from the bottom of her heart
SIGN    Is jealous of the heroine,
    however she doesn't bully her
    like Catarina
[10:49] GlassesC
    No.
[10:50] GlassesC
    In the happy ending,
[10:52] GlassesC
    Mary congratulates the couple and withdraws.
[10:54] GlassesC
    In the bad end, she ends up with Alan.
[10:57] FearlessC
    She's a rival just like us,
    but she's such a nice character!
[11:00] FearlessC
    Why is Catarina the only one
    to be treated like a monster?!
[11:02] FearlessC
    What were you thinking, production staff?!
[11:05] FearlessC
    You guys should try being
    in Catarina's shoes for once!
[11:10] ChairmanC
    Order!
[11:12] GlassesC
    We don't even know if this story
    will pan out as it did in the game.
[11:16] GlassesC
    Take a look.
SIGN    Alan
SIGN    You have a green thumb, Mary.
[11:18] Alan
    You have a green thumb, Mary.
SIGN    Mary
SIGN    A green thumb?
[11:21] Mary
    A green thumb?
SIGN    Alan
[11:22] Alan
    That's what you say about people who have a talent for raising plants.
SIGN    That's what you say about people who have a talent for raising plants.
[11:26] Alan
    Your green thumb makes you
    extra special and extra amazing.
SIGN    Your green thumb makes you extra special and extra amazing.
[11:31] SpinelessC
    Th-That sounds like what Catarina said.
[11:34] GlassesC
    It's exactly what Catarina said, in fact.
[11:36] HappyC
    I thought I'd heard that somewhere before!
[11:38] FearlessC
    Wait, does that mean we said it first?
[11:41] FearlessC
    A great line like that has only
    half the impact the second time!
[11:44] FearlessC
    Mary won't fall for him now!
[11:48] GlassesC
    I fear all we can do is wait
    and see what happens.
[11:50] FearlessC
    Y-You're right.
[11:52] FearlessC
    Alan is a beautiful prince in an otome game!
[11:55] FearlessC
    Having one line stolen
    from him isn't a big deal!
[12:00] Catarina
    Mary, I heard your engagement's been settled.
[12:02] Catarina
    Congratulations!
[12:04] Mary
    Thank you.
[12:06] Mary
    I'm engaged to a prince now, too.
[12:08] Mary
    I'm so happy to be in the same
    position as you, Lady Catarina.
[12:12] Catarina
    Right...
[12:13] Catarina
    So, what was Prince Alan like?
[12:16] Mary
    He was very beautiful.
[12:18] Mary
    And he praised my garden, just like you did.
[12:23] Catarina
    Really? And what happened next?
[12:25] Mary
    Nothing. That was all.
[12:28] Catarina
    Um... Your green thumb didn't come
    up in the conversation or anything?
[12:32] Mary
    Lady Catarina!
    Did you actually hear about that?
[12:36] Catarina
    So it did, then?! It actually came up?!
[12:38] Mary
    Yes!
[12:39] Mary
    I told Prince Alan what you told me!
[12:43] Catarina
    What?! You told him?!
[12:46] Catarina
    And you told him I said it?!
[12:47] Mary
    Yes.
[12:48] Mary
    I was just so happy
    that you said such a thing to me.
[12:53] Mary
    I couldn't help but tell him about it.
[12:55] Catarina
    No way he could say it, then.
[12:57] Catarina
    Not when he knew someone
    else beat him to it.
[13:00] Catarina
    Sorry, Alan.
[13:04] Catarina
    Keep growing and make me
    some delicious veggies!
[13:07] Anne
    My Lady!
[13:08] Anne
    The prince is here to visit!
[13:11] Catarina
    What are you so flustered about, Anne?
[13:13] Catarina
    Prince Geordo can just come
    right out here, like always.
[13:16] Mary
    Not him! The fourth prince, Alan, is here!
[13:20] Catarina
    What?! Why?!
[13:24] Catarina
    S-Sorry to make you wait!
[13:32] Alan
    Took you long enough.
[13:37] Catarina
    Wh-What kind of attitude is that?
    He's the one who showed up unannounced.
[13:40] Catarina
    No, no. He's just a child.
[13:43] Catarina
    Mentally, I'm seventeen plus nine years old.
[13:46] Catarina
    I can't get angry at a child.
[13:49] Catarina
    I apologize.
    It took a bit of time to get ready.
[13:52] Catarina
    I am Catarina Claes.
[13:54] Alan
    Alan Stuart.
[13:55] Alan
    I need to talk to you.
[13:57] Catarina
    A-About what?
[13:59] Alan
    About Mary Hunt.
[14:01] Catarina
    Huh?
[14:01] Alan
    She's my fiancée now. Did you know that?
[14:05] Catarina
    Yes, I am aware.
[14:08] Alan
    If you're aware, then stop seducing her!
[14:10] Catarina
    S-Seducing? What do you mean?
[14:12] Alan
    Are you trying to play dumb?!
[14:14] Alan
    I invited her over, but she refused,
    saying she had plans with you!
[14:17] (Flashback) Mary
    Lady Catarina is...
[14:17] Alan
    And when we're together,
    you're all she ever talks about!
[14:19] (Flashback) ---
    Lady Catarina said...
[14:20] Alan
    It's obvious that you're
    trying to seduce her!
[14:21] (Flashback) Mary
    Lady Catarina and I...
[14:22] Catarina
    Excuse me?!
    That's a blatantly false accusation!
[14:26] Alan
    What's false about it?!
[14:27] ---
    You're trying to deceive
    my sweet, pure Mary!
[14:29] Catarina
    That's ridiculous!
[14:30] Catarina
    You just invited her at the wrong time,
[14:32] Catarina
    and whatever you talk to her about is boring!
[14:35] Alan
    What?!
[14:35] Anne
    L-Lady Catarina!
[14:37] Catarina
    Any girl would accept the invitation
    of someone who appeals to her!
[14:41] Catarina
    You just have no appeal at all!
[14:47] Alan
    No appeal?
[14:50] Alan
    I've never been ridiculed
    to my face like this before.
[14:54] Catarina
    U-Um, that was just a slip of the...
[14:57] Alan
    You've got guts, Catarina Claes.
[14:59] Alan
    I accept that insult
    as a personal challenge.
[15:03] Alan
    We will have a showdown!
[15:07] Anna
    Why a tree-climbing contest?
[15:10] Catarina
    Because Prince Alan said that since I'm
    a girl, he'd let me choose the contest.
[15:14] Catarina
    And this was the only thing
    I could think of that I'm good at.
[15:18] Anne
    But I doubt that Prince Alan
    has ever climbed a tree before.
[15:22] Catarina
    It'll be fine.
[15:22] Servant1
    Prince Alan, please don't do this.
[15:23] Catarina
    Keith is keeping Mother occupied so
    she won't find out, so for his sake,
[15:24] Servant2
    If you were to get hurt...
[15:26] Alan
    E-Enough! Be quiet!
[15:26] Catarina
    I'll end this quickly.
[15:28] Catarina
    Okay, shall we get started?
[15:30] Catarina
    The first one to reach the top wins.
[15:33] Alan
    Sure, fine.
[15:35] Anne
    All right, then... take your marks.
[15:38] Anne
    Set!
[15:39] Anne
    Begin!
[15:47] Catarina
    Looks like the contest is over, Prince Alan!
[15:50] Alan
    I-I demand a rematch!
[15:52] Alan
    I'm just not used to this
    because I've never done it before!
[15:54] Catarina
    Hah! Don't think you can
    beat me, little rich boy.
[15:57] Catarina
    They called me "wild monkey"
    in my past life.
[16:01] Catarina
    That's fine with me,
[16:02] Catarina
    but you won't beat me that easily!
[16:06] Alan
    Bring it on!
[16:14] Catarina
    Are you all right, Prince Alan?
[16:19] Alan
    I-I'll win the next round!
[16:21] Alan
    Just you wait!
[16:21] Servant1
    P-Prince Alan!
[16:23] Alan
    Catarina Claes! It's time
    for another showdown!
[16:28] Alan
    Another showdown!
[16:31] Alan
    Today, I will win!
[16:34] Alan
    Wh-What are you, a monkey?!
[16:36] Catarina
    These are good, too!
[16:38] Keith
    Prince Alan has been coming
    here every day since.
[16:38] Alan
    Yeah, they're not half bad.
[16:40] Anne
    Indeed. He just doesn't want to give up.
[16:44] Alan
    Catarina! I'm back for another...
[16:48] Alan
    Wh-Why are you here?
[16:50] Geordo
    This is my fiancée's house.
[16:53] ---
    What's so strange about my being here?
[16:57] Alan
    Well, I have a showdown
    with her today, so don't butt in.
[17:01] Geordo
    You've had numerous showdowns already,
    and you haven't won even once.
[17:04] Geordo
    Don't you think it's time you gave up?
[17:08] Alan
    N-No.
[17:10] Alan
    The contest hasn't been decided yet!
[17:13] Alan
    I can do it, too! I can...
[17:17] Catarina
    L-Listen, Prince Alan...
[17:20] Catarina
    Why don't we pick something
    else to compete in?
[17:23] Catarina
    I think my mother is about to find out
    that I've been climbing trees.
[17:27] Alan
    If we must... What shall we compete in, then?
[17:33] Catarina
    I know! How about piano?
[17:42] Geordo
    What a surprise. I didn't
    know you could play the piano.
[17:45] Catarina
    Y-Yes...
[17:47] Catarina
    Was that supposed to be a compliment?
[17:49] Catarina
    It's your turn next, Prince Alan.
[18:46] Catarina
    Incredible! You're very good!
[18:48] Alan
    It's nothing that special.
[18:50] Catarina
    But it really is!
[18:52] Catarina
    We played the same song,
    but it sounded completely different!
[18:55] Catarina
    You have remarkable talent!
[18:58] Geordo
    Catarina is right.
[18:59] Geordo
    That was truly splendid.
[19:02] Alan
    You don't really think that.
[19:04] Alan
    You can drop the stupid flattery!
[19:06] Alan
    I know you're mocking me on the
    inside, calling me a failure!
[19:10] Geordo
    Alan...
[19:13] Catarina
    Prince Alan!
[19:20] Catarina
    Prince Alan.
[19:22] Alan
    I don't have anything worth calling a talent.
[19:24] Catarina
    That's not true...
[19:26] Alan
    I can't do anything.
[19:28] Alan
    I'm just the dregs left in Geordo's wake.
[19:30] Catarina
    Why do you have so little
    confidence in yourself?
[19:35] Alan
    I've been compared to Geordo
    since the day I was born.
[19:38] Alan
    No matter what I do,
    I can't hold a candle to him.
[19:40] Alan
    I've been told all my life that
[19:42] Alan
    I'm just the dregs left behind after
    Geordo took all the good qualities.
[19:45] Alan
    How am I supposed to feel confident?
[19:47] Catarina
    I think it's more an issue of what you
    are and aren't suited for.
[19:51] Alan
    What do you mean?
[19:52] Catarina
    Well... Prince Geordo has things
    he's good at and things he's bad at,
[19:58] Catarina
    and I'm sure you have some of each, as well.
[20:01] Catarina
    We all have things we handle
    well and things we don't.
[20:05] Alan
    I've never heard of Geordo having
    anything he can't handle, though.
[20:10] Catarina
    If you want to know what Prince Geordo
    can't handle, I know of something.
[20:14] Alan
    Huh?
[20:16] Catarina
    It happened a week ago...
[20:27] Catarina
    He's normally so composed,
[20:29] Catarina
    but when he saw it, he was terribly shocked.
[20:32] Catarina
    That's clearly the thing he can't handle!
[20:34] Alan
    What was it, though?
[20:35] Geordo
    Catarina? Where are you?
[20:37] Catarina
    Here he comes! This way!
[20:39] Alan
    H-Hey!
[20:42] Catarina
    The thing Prince Geordo can't handle...
[20:45] Catarina
    is this!
[20:53] Catarina
    Prince Geordo can't stand snakes!
[20:56] Alan
    Snakes?
[20:56] Catarina
    Yes!
[20:57] ---
    I wanted to find out for sure someday,
[20:59] Catarina
    so I've kept a toy snake
    hidden in my pocket!
[21:02] Alan
    Uh, that's not what I meant
    by "things he can't handle."
[21:05] Catarina
    I've finally found
    the perfect prince's weakness!
[21:09] Catarina
    This is sure to come in handy
    when I face the threat of my doom!
[21:13] Geordo
    Catarina...
[21:14] Catarina
    P-Prince Geordo?
[21:16] Geordo
    What, exactly, is this?
[21:18] Catarina
    Um, that's...
[21:20] Geordo
    Surely you wouldn't throw a thing
    like this at your fiancé, would you?
[21:25] Catarina
    W-Wait! Am I going to be exiled for
    the crime of throwing a toy at a prince?!
[21:30] Geordo
    I must tell your mother about
    your tree-climbing and this toy.
[21:35] Catarina
    Wha—
[21:36] Catarina
    Anything but that! Please!
[21:38] Catarina
    P-Prince Geordo!
[23:20] Catarina
    I can't believe he actually
    told Mother everything.
[23:24] Catarina
    Still, this is great!
[23:25] Catarina
    I know what Geordo's weakness is now!
[23:29] Catarina
    When he's about to kill me,
    I'll just toss a toy snake
[23:31] Catarina
    and run away while he's recoiling in fear!
[23:34] Catarina
    It's the perfect plan, if I do say so myself!
[23:36] Catarina
    Now I can avoid that doom flag!
