[00:02] (Flashback) Christopher
    Since then, the living dolls
     of Shadows House
[00:06] (Flashback) Christopher
    have been tasked with cleaning
     this huge mansion every day.
[00:10] (Flashback) Christopher
    And with that, Christopher's
    story time comes to a close.
[00:15] (Flashback) child A
    Cleaning really is important, isn't it?
[00:17] (Flashback) child
    Yes.
[00:18] (Flashback) child B
    We know that skipping
     cleaning leads to scorches.
[00:22] (Flashback) child B
    But we're not afraid of those things!
[00:26] (Flashback) Christopher
    This is a story Christopher once heard.
[00:28] (Flashback) Christopher
    They say there was once a child,
    like you, who scorned cleaning.
[00:32] (Flashback) Christopher
    More and more scorches
    emerged in the child's room...
[00:35] (Flashback) Christopher
    Until one day, the child awoke,
    unable to breathe.
[00:39] (Flashback) Christopher
    Scared, the child
    tried to call for help,
[00:41] (Flashback) Christopher
    but no one heard.
[00:44] (Flashback) Christopher
    And that...
[00:46] (Flashback) Christopher
    was because scorches had
    covered the child's entire body!
[00:51] (Flashback) Christopher
    The child died that way...
[00:54] (Flashback) Christopher
    But those scorches, it seems,
[00:56] (Flashback) Christopher
    slithered off and began to walk around.
[00:59] (Flashback) Christopher
    Upon seeing their form,
    everyone screamed...
[01:04] (Flashback) Christopher
    "It's a giant phantom!"
[01:09] (Flashback) Christopher
    Christopher doesn't want
    to end up that way,
[01:12] (Flashback) Christopher
    so he cleans very thoroughly.
[01:14] (Flashback) child A
    How scary!
[01:15] (Flashback) child B
    They combine!
[01:16] (Flashback) child B
    They merge together and become phantoms!
[01:18] (Flashback) child C
    We need to clean really well!
[01:20] (Flashback) Maryrose
    Christopher should probably become
     a novelist or something, don't you think?
[01:25] (Flashback) Christopher
    Now, as a special treat today,
    we'll have just one more story.
[01:31] (Flashback) Maryrose
    If Christopher ever receives an invitation,
[01:33] (Flashback) Maryrose
    it will be difficult for anyone else
    to win over these young ones.
[01:41] (Flashback) Christopher
    Maryrose and Barbara are here
    to carry on Christopher's wishes,
[01:44] (Flashback) Christopher
    so Christopher isn't worried about a thing.
[01:51] (Flashback) children
    Christopher!

    In the face of sadness, we shall smile
[02:17] lyrics
    To live is to be a marionette

    Would you like a coffee?

[02:33] lyrics
    I can't seem to dance very well
[02:36] lyrics
    Pain and resentment, and sadness, too...
[02:39] lyrics
    Mix them, knead them...
[02:43] lyrics
    And then a good night kiss
[02:47] lyrics
    Shall we Dance? We shall dance
[02:51] lyrics
    Despair and desire. This is the life!

[03:35] Kate
    We have a little breathing space today,
[03:37] Kate
    so let's go to the training room.
[03:38] Emilico
    Yes, Mistress!
[03:40] Kate; internal
    In order to become Star Bearers,
    we will need to gather information.
[03:44] Kate; internal
    First, we should investigate
    to see who has soot powers.
[03:48] Louise
    Kate!
[03:50] Kate
    Louise...
[03:52] Kate
    Kate is on her way to the training room.
[03:55] Kate
    Would you like to come with Kate?
[03:57] Louise
    Louise is tired, so she's
    going back to her rooms.
[04:00] Louise
    Oh! But look, look!
[04:09] Louise
    A cute expression!
[04:12] Louise
    An even cuter expression!
[04:16] Louise
    An expression that's even more cute!
[04:20] Louise
    See? See?
[04:21] Louise
    Louise has improved, hasn't she?
[04:22] Louise
    Louise's repertoire has expanded.
[04:24] Kate
    That's amazing!
[04:26] Kate
    But doesn't that cause your
    living doll to break down?
[04:29] Louise
    What?
[04:30] Louise
    Her face is as beautiful as ever.
[04:33] Louise
    Louise is so glad you were here, Kate!
[04:35] Louise
    She can't boast to Sarah.
[04:37] Louise
    Louise doesn't know if she
    can even show Sarah or not.
[04:40] Kate; internal
    That's right.
[04:42] Kate; internal
    We don't know if Sarah or
    Maryrose can use soot powers.
[04:53] background shadow; male
    That sounds like fun.
[04:54] background shadow; male
    Let's try it next time.
[04:56] Kate
    All of them can control soot.
[04:59] Kate
    What kinds of powers might they possess?
[05:02] Isabelle
    You must be Kate.
[05:10] Kate; internal
    The twins who are always
    cozying up to the Star Bearers.
[05:13] Kate; internal
    They're sure to try to become
    Star Bearers the next chance they get.
[05:21] Patrick; internal
    What are Kate and Louise doing
    that they'd keep secret from Patrick?
[05:26] Patrick; internal
    And Emilico was with them, too.
[05:28] Louise
    What are you doing over there?
[05:30] Patrick
    Huh?
[05:31] Patrick
    Oh! Louise!
[05:33] Louise
    Well, well...
[05:34] Louise
    Could it be that you were planning
    to go to that room up ahead?
[05:37] Louise
    Patrick, you haven't received permission
    for that yet, have you?
[05:40] Patrick
    P-Patrick knows that. He knows that.
[05:43] Patrick
    Of course Patrick wouldn't do that.
[05:44] Patrick
    Patrick was simply taking a little walk.
[05:46] Patrick
    And Patrick was just about
    to head back to his rooms!
[05:49] Louise
    Really? How very suspicious.
[05:53] Isabelle
    You're quite adept at soot
    manipulation for a beginner.
[05:56] Isabelle
    That's what Susanna said.
    She was praising you.
[05:59] Mirabelle
    No wonder you passed your debut.
[06:04] Isabelle
    Pleased to meet you. We're Isabelle...
[06:06] Mirabelle
    ...and Mirabelle.
[06:09] Kate
    Kate is pleased to meet you.
[06:11] Emilico
    Woof!
[06:12] Kate
    Emilico? What are you doing?
[06:13] Emilico
    Woof! Woof!
[06:15] Emilico
    Woof! Woof! Woof!
[06:17] Douglas
    What's going on there?
[06:19] Emilico
    Woof! Woof!
[06:20] Kate
    You two are controlling her, aren't you?
[06:22] Mirabelle
    Dear, dear...
[06:24] Mirabelle
    Even if one has some degree of soot power...
[06:26] Isabelle
    ...with a face like that, one can only give up.
[06:28] Emilico
    Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
[06:32] Isabelle
    Now, the way back...
[06:34] Mirabelle
    ...is right through there.
[06:36] Isabelle; Mirabelle
    Huh?
[06:41] Kate
    Let's go, Emilico.
[06:43] Emilcio
    Yes, Mistress!
[06:44] Isabelle
    What do you think you're doing?
[06:47] Kate
    What do you mean?
[06:48] Kate
    Since you're twins,
[06:49] Kate
    Kate can only presume your clumsy
     spells have the same timing, too.
[06:58] Kate
    Kate is sorry, Emilico.
[07:00] Emilico
    What?
[07:01] Kate
    If we want to become Star Bearers,
[07:03] Kate
    we shouldn't respond to such provocations.
[07:05] Kate
    Those twins must hate us now, too.
[07:10] Emilico
    Wait!
[07:12] Emilico
    When you saved me, it made me really happy,
[07:15] Emilico
    Mistress Kate!
[07:21] Kate
    Did it?
[07:42] Emilico
    I wasn't able to sleep very well.
[07:46] Emilico
    After all, today is...
[07:48] Mia
    Good morning, Emilico!
[07:50] Mia
    Now, let's go to the rejoicing party!
[07:55] Olly
    Where's Barbie?
[07:57] Susie
    Attending to one of Mistress Barbara's fits.
[07:59] Susie
    We'll have to take her some coffee later.
[08:06] Emilico
    Aside from Shaun, I can't rely on anyone.
[08:09] Emilico
    Oh!
[08:10] Emilico
    But I do feel like I'll be able to
    explain everything to my team!
[08:14] Emilico
    Huh? Where's Rosemary?
[08:17] Mia
    She went to take out the garbage
     quite some time ago.
[08:19] Mia
    Where could she be dilly-dallying?
[08:25] Mia
    Oh.
[08:26] Mia
    Oh, there she is!
[08:38] Mia
    What?
[08:39] Mia
    Has Rose gotten soot sickness again?
[08:43] Emilico
    A-Are you all right?
[08:46] Emilico
    Rosemary?
[08:48] Emilico
    Something about the shape
    of her seems... strange.
[08:50] Ben
    Move away from her!
[08:56] Ben
    Scorches!
[09:04] Emilico
    Take...
[09:05] Emilico
    that!
[09:09] Emilico
    They're stronger than the ones
    we got rid of in the garden!
[09:12] Emilico
    These scorches must be denser!
[09:14] Mia
    Honestly, that Rose!
[09:16] Mia
    Where did she pick these up?
[09:19] Emilico
    Oh! Oh, no!
[09:26] Emilico
    Are you all right?
[09:38] Emilico
    Shaun!
[09:39] Shaun
    Emilico! Are you unharmed?
[09:41] Emilico
    Yes.
[09:42] Emilico
    After the scorch went
    in his mouth, he attacked me.
[09:45] Shaun
    If they get all the way inside...
[09:47] Shaun
    You turn into that?
[09:49] Ben
    Pull them off!
[09:51] Shaun
    Blast it!
[09:52] Shaun
    They've gotten to several of us already!
[09:54] Ben
    Tie up anyone fighting back!
[10:04] Susie
    Wh-What is all this commotion?
[10:07] Olly
    Whoa!
[10:08] Susie
    First-aid team!
[10:09] Susie
    Take all living dolls with soot
    sickness to the washing room!
[10:11] Ben
    Susie! Can we use water?
[10:13] Susie
    Well, we'd have to ask Barbie.
[10:16] Susie
    Olly, will you go and ask...
[10:18] Susie
    Oh, for crying out... He's gone!
[10:23] Ricky
    He's strong!
[10:24] Shaun
    Follow Ben's example!
[10:30] Emilico
    Take that!
[10:32] Mia
    Nice work, Emilico!
[10:35] Doug
    Whoops, look out!
[10:38] Emilico
    Mia!
[10:55] Susie
    The coffee! We have to protect the coffee!
[10:58] Susie
    Belle!
[10:59] Susie
    Take the coffee and retreat!
[11:01] Belle; Belle
    Right away!
[11:02] Susie
    Doug's team!
[11:03] Susie
    Go and bring the emergency
    cleaning equipment!
[11:06] Doug
    Understood!
[11:08] Emilico
    Mia! Mia!
[11:18] Emilico
    P-Please stop, Mia!
[11:23] Lou
    Emilico, while you can...
[11:25] Emilico
    Right!
[11:30] Lou
    Emilico, let's run.
[11:32] Emilico
    Yes, let's.
[11:39] Susie
    Everyone, calm down!
[11:42] Susie
    The scorches have retreated
     to the second floor!
[11:44] Susie
    If we deal with this calmly now,
[11:47] Susie
    it shouldn't pose
    a significant problem to...
[11:56] Shaun
    A phantom.
[11:57] Emilico
    Yes.
[12:10] Susie
    The scorches from earlier...
[12:12] Susie
    All of them...
[12:13] Susie
    They've combined!
[12:23] Ben
    It's no good.
[12:24] Ben
    Even if I break them off, they reform.
[12:30] Emilico
    What are we supposed to do
    against something like that?
[12:40] Olly
    Sir!
[12:40] Olly
    The mobile soot collector, Oliver Mark II...
[12:43] Olly
    has been completed with impeccable timing!
[12:45] Emilico
    Wow!
[12:48] Olly
    That said, we haven't done a test run.
[12:51] Olly
    But with you, my fellow researcher,
    at my side, we can do this, Nancy!
[12:54] Nancy
    I'm not so sure.
[12:57] Olly
    Now, we switch it on!
[13:06] Olly
    Good. The force produced is okay.
[13:08] Olly
    I'll temporarily reduce the power.
[13:15] Nancy
    I... I will go charge in.
[13:18] Nancy
    Please increase the power.
[13:21] Nancy
    Wait a moment, please—!
[13:26] Olly
    My!
[13:27] Nancy
    I can't go on.
[13:31] Olly
    You've done good work, Nancy!
[13:34] Olly
    Much can be learned from mistakes!
[13:36] Olly
    The user must be quick-witted,
    agile, and physically strong!
[13:38] Olly
    One needs an instinctive understanding of
    how to counter the hose's movements!
[13:42] Olly
    Is there anyone here
    who might be able to handle it?
[13:44] Susie
    Olly!
[13:45] Susie
    Stop tinkering with that
     unusable machine and help us!
[13:50] Emilico
    Excuse me!
[13:53] Emilico
    Please allow me to do it!
[13:57] Olly
    Mobile soot collector...
[13:59] Olly
    Oliver Mark II!
[14:01] Emilico
    It's spectacular!
[14:04] Olly
    First, the scorches are
     sucked in through the nozzle.
[14:06] Olly
    They then pass through a mill
    which pulverizes them,
[14:09] Olly
    and they're stored in the
    soot tank under the driver's seat.
[14:13] Olly
    Oh, and this is the power unit.
[14:20] Olly
    There's also a cutter
    embedded within the pipe.
[14:23] Olly
    It's incredibly dangerous,
[14:25] Olly
    so please do not put
    your arms or legs inside.
[14:27] Emilico
    I won't!
[14:29] Olly
    I will adjust the power level,
[14:31] Olly
    so when you're ready, please let me know!
[14:35] Emilico
    Ready to go!
[14:36] Olly
    Switching it on!
[14:44] Olly
    Wow!
[14:45] Olly
    It's bucking a bit, but she's
    heading toward the phantom!
[14:47] Emilico
    Here we go!
[14:52] Olly
    You're doing well! It's working!
[15:10] Olly
    With the suction pointed toward the floor,
[15:11] Olly
    she's riding the nozzle
    to move at high speed!
[15:14] Shaun
    Ingenious!
[15:16] Ben
    We'll break up the phantom
    so that Emilico can suck it up!
[15:23] Emilico
    There!
[15:27] Emilico
    And there!
[15:28] boy 5
    Yeah! We can do this!
[15:30] girl 7
    We should all help break up the phantom, too!
[15:35] Ricky
    Ow, ow, ow...
[15:39] Ricky
    Huh?
[15:39] Shaun
    Hey!
[15:41] Shaun
    Are you all right, Ricky?
[15:44] Ricky
    I found it.
[15:45] Ricky
    The figure Barbie talked about.
[15:47] Shaun
    Wha—? Really?
[15:50] Ricky
    Up there.
[15:54] Ricky
    It's standing on one of the beams.
[15:59] Ricky
    Huh? Hey, wait!
[16:00] Ricky
    I'm the one who spotted it!
[16:10] Shaun
    Is it still there?
[16:12] Ricky
    Yes, it's there.
[16:15] Ricky
    It's trying to get away!
[16:17] Shaun
    I won't let it!
[16:17] Ricky
    Hey!
[16:21] Ricky
    Neither will I.
[16:26] Ricky
    Shaun! Help...
[16:28] Ricky
    No.
[16:29] Ricky
    Never mind about me!
[16:30] Ricky
    What you're doing is the priority!
[16:32] Ricky
    Leave me and go on ahead!
[16:34] Ricky
    You could have hesitated just a little!
[16:40] Shaun
    Okay.
[16:41] Shaun
    I'm just about to catch up!
[16:51] Shaun
    Wait!
[16:58] Shaun
    It got away.
[17:00] Ricky
    Shaun!
[17:01] Ricky
    Come help me after all!
[17:03] Ricky
    Hey!
[17:07] Ben
    We can do this!
[17:14] Olly
    Oh! This is bad!
[17:16] Olly
    It's performing outside its parameters!
[17:18] Olly
    Based on this pattern of events,
    its limiter may not be working...
[17:21] Olly
    because the power has been operating
    for a prolonged period of time.
[17:24] Nancy
    To put it simply, it is on the fritz!
[17:28] Lou
    Emilico, where are you going?
[17:30] Emilico
    Please ask the nozzle!
[17:35] Emilico
    Oh, that was close.
[17:39] Olly
    I will temporarily shut it down!
[17:41] Nancy
    What?
[17:42] Jeremy
    Wouldn't it be bad to turn it off now?
[17:44] Lyddy
    Yes, it would.
[17:49] Lou
    Emilico!
[17:54] boy 5
    She's amazing.
[17:57] Susie
    This is no time to be distracted!
[17:59] girl 2
    Take this!
[18:04] boy 5
    The phantom just shot out a scorch!
[18:07] girl 4
    In this brief amount of time,
[18:08] girl 4
    it's increased the number
    of ways it can attack?
[18:11] Barbie
    Watch the way it's moving, you useless lot!
[18:14] Barbie
    The scorches will come flying
    in the same direction their faces appear.
[18:17] Barbie
    They're aiming for our mouths!
[18:19] Barbie
    They'll move in straight lines.
[18:25] Barbie
    Use that to aim!
[18:28] Barbie
    That girl again...
[18:30] Barbie
    Just how infuriated
    is she trying to make me?
[18:33] Doug
    Doug's team, reporting back
    with the emergency cleaning equipment!
[18:36] Barbie
    Good!
[18:37] Barbie
    Everyone provide support for Doug's team!
[18:39] Barbie
    Bring water!
[18:41] Barbie
    If the need arises,
    I grant permission to use it!
[18:44] Susanna
    Barbie is directing things quite well.
[18:46] Susanna
    Perhaps there won't be any need
    to use soot powers.
[18:48] Susanna
    There are living dolls here whose shadows
    have yet to awaken their powers.
[18:54] Shaun
    Emilico?
[18:55] Ricky
    How did you end up like that?
[19:00] Emilico
    Olly!
[19:01] Emilico
    Please turn the power up to full!
[19:03] Nancy
    What? While you're in that state?
[19:05] Olly
    I've removed the limiter!
[19:12] Nancy
    What?
[19:21] Doug
    The phantom's getting smaller!
[19:24] Nancy
    The tank has reached full capacity!
[19:26] Olly
    Let's open it up, Nancy!
[19:28] Olly
    The contents have been pulverized,
[19:30] Olly
    so they shouldn't become
    scorches again for a while!
[19:33] Nancy
    I'm not sure about this.
[19:36] Ricky
    All right. Just a little more.
[19:41] Ricky; Lou
    Emilico!
[19:51] Olly
    Magnificent! Well done!
[19:57] Shaun
    Are you all right, Emilico?
[20:00] Emilico
    Yes, of course I am.
[20:02] Olly
    Huh?
[20:03] Belle
    Don't come this way!
[20:07] Emilico
    There are scorches headed toward Belle!
[20:09] Emilico
    I'm coming to help you now!
[20:11] Shaun
    She's got amazing strength of spirit.
[20:13] Ricky
    Ow...
[20:15] Lou
    Say, Ricky...
[20:17] Ricky
    Huh?
[20:18] Lou
    Has my face been harmed?
[20:21] Ricky
    What?
[20:23] Ricky
    Huh? I feel like...
[20:25] Lou
    I feel like this has happened before.
[20:30] Oliver
    Yes!
[20:31] Oliver
    This has been a huge success!
[20:32] Susanna
    What? Oliver?!
[20:34] Susanna
    What are you doing there?
[20:35] Oliver
    Operating this machine
    requires Oliver's soot powers.
[20:39] Susanna
    That makes sense.
[20:41] Susanna
    Still, with this many scorches,
[20:45] Susanna
    checking the soot pipes
    seems like a good idea.
[20:48] Barbie
    Yes, miss.
[20:53] Emilico
    Are you hurt at all, Belle?
[20:55] Belle
    Not really.
[20:57] Belle
    Nothing that presents a problem.
[20:59] Belle
    And the coffee is safe, too.
[21:04] Emilico
    Huh?
[21:24] Belle; Belle
    N-No!
[21:26] Belle; Belle
    I didn't do that!
[21:31] Emilico
    On this day,
[21:33] Emilico
    the living dolls have been
    returned to their rooms,
[21:35] Emilico
    and they, along with their shadow masters,
[21:37] Emilico
    have been forbidden from leaving.
[21:41] Emilico
    Rosemary, Mia...
[21:42] Emilico
    and everyone who
    contracted soot sickness...
[21:45] Emilico
    All I can do is worry for them.
[21:48] Emilico
    Why did the Belles do such a thing?
[21:50] Emilico
    After hearing my story,
[21:53] Emilico
    Mistress Kate is quietly
    thinking things over.
[21:56] Emilico
    What is happening here
    in the children's wing?
[22:05] lyric
    Traveling through a jumbled labyrinth...
[22:10] lyric
    Over and over
[22:14] lyric
    This lonely utopia...
[22:19] lyric
    I have no more need of it
[22:23] lyric
    A vanished smile
[22:25] lyric
    Promises are lies, too
[22:28] lyric
    Everything is pointless,
    isn't it? And yet...
[22:32] lyric
    Even misshapen as I am, I keep searching...
[22:37] lyric
    For shadows of recollection
[22:43] lyric
    Roses whose love has rotted...
[22:48] lyric
    Lock their feelings away
[22:53] lyric
    That silhouette from back then...
[22:57] lyric
    I've kept on chasing it...
[23:01] lyric
    Even if pale, frozen thorns
[23:06] lyric
    Pierce my heart over and over
[23:10] lyric
    Until I can take that hand
[23:15] lyric
    Again and again
[23:19] lyric
    I'll wish on a star
