[00:01] Narrator
    Can you imagine a life where you
    can't even touch the person you love?
[00:09] Narrator
    The curse the witch laid upon him caused
    him to take the lives of any he touched.
[00:14] Narrator
    His own mother distanced herself from him.
    His friends called him a monster.
[00:19] Narrator
    Even people he'd never met spoke of him as
[00:20] Narrator
    "Death Incarnate who dwells in the forest."
[00:24] Narrator
    And yet, he doesn't feel
    the least bit lonely.
[00:30] Zain
    How many times do we have to go over this?
[00:32] Zain
    You can't have an omelet without ketchup.
[00:34] Cuff
    It's demi-glace sauce.
[00:35] Cuff
    Why? 'Cause demi-glace sauce tastes good.
[00:37] Zain
    So does ketchup!
[00:41] Duke
    You guys are lucky. You can tell each
    other exactly how you're feeling.
[00:45] Duke
    I'm jealous.
[00:46] Zain
    Huh? If you want to say something
    to Alice, then why don't you say it?
[00:50] Duke
    Hmm? But I'm not really
    upset with her or anything.
[00:56] Alice
    Excuse me.
[01:01] Duke
    Alice...
[01:02] Duke
    Stop being so cute all the time!
[01:06] Alice
    You're so handsome all the time, too.
[01:09] Duke
    That wasn't what I expected
    to hear, but I'll take it!
[01:12] Zain
    Go home!
[01:13] Zain
    I guess this is your house, though.
SIGN    Episode 14
    The Duke, Golf, and the Mysterious Beauty
[02:47] Alice
    Oh, Your Grace.
[02:49] Alice
    It's your first time, but you're so good.
[02:52] Duke
    Would you try not to sound so weirdly sexy?
[02:55] Duke
    I'm just playing mini-golf!
[02:57] Alice
    You're wonderful, Your Grace.
[02:59] Duke
    I missed.
[03:01] Alice
    You hit it a little too hard, I see.
[03:03] Duke
    Why golf, though?
[03:06] Alice
    I thought it would serve to fix your lack
    of exercise, and give you a change of pace.
[03:12] Alice
    I just wanted to play with you, Your Grace.
[03:14] Duke
    So cute!
[03:18] Alice
    Let's not worry about the rules.
    Just aim for the flag and hit it.
[03:24] Duke
    That motion has nothing to do with golf!
[03:34] Duke
    Wow!
[03:36] Duke
    Is there anything you can't do?
[03:39] Alice
    Perhaps I'm good at it because
    it's like sweeping with a broom.
[03:44] Alice
    I'll show you the trick, if you like.
[03:46] Duke
    Yes, please.
[03:48] Alice
    Eyes on the ball, and don't look up.
[03:53] Alice
    It will send your swing off target.
[03:54] Duke
    Okay.
[03:57] Alice
    Your Grace.
[03:58] Duke
    What?
[03:59] Alice
    Don't turn around. Just look at the ball.
[04:05] Alice
    When we're so close, it makes me
    feel kind of hot. What about you?
[04:08] Duke
    You're the one who got close to me!
[04:14] Duke
    Don't tell me she's stripping!
[04:17] Alice
    That's not where the ball goes, Your Grace...
[04:21] Duke
    This is a living hell!
[04:23] Duke
    Golf is a scary sport!
[04:24] Alice
    Now try hitting it.
[04:29] Alice
    Don't try to swing hard or soft.
[04:31] Alice
    Just raise the club up and swing
    it through evenly.
[04:33] Alice
    For instance, if you raised it this high,
     swing it through that much.
[04:38] Duke
    Not only did I not get that,
[04:40] Duke
    she was flirting with me as
    casually as if she was breathing.
[04:43] Alice
    Imagine a clock. If you raised it
    to 7 o' clock, swing to 5 'o clock.
[04:48] Alice
    Or 9 to 3.
[04:50] Alice
    Or 12 to 12.
[04:54] Duke
    Okay. I wouldn't swing a
    putter that hard, though.
[05:01] Duke
    Don't look up. Focus on the ball.
[05:05] Duke
    Swing it through as much as you raised it up!
[05:15] Duke
    I did it!
[05:16] Alice
    Wonderful, Your Grace.
[05:17] Duke
    Yeah, it's so nice to learn something new!
[05:20] Song
    Hole in One!
[05:22] Song
    All I'm doing is putting a ball into a hole
[05:28] Song
    So why, so why, is golf so much fun?
[05:33] Song
    Your bold approach
[05:36] Song
    Tee shot, make some tea
[05:39] Song
    It fell into the lake!
[05:42] Song
    You're so great, Your Grace!
[05:45] Song
    Golf, golf, let's all fall in love with golf
SIGN    You want me to dress up like a girl?
[05:58] Viola
    No, I want to practice makeup on your face!
[06:04] Viola
    You know, Mom won't let me do my own makeup.
[06:08] Viola
    And I don't want to ask the maids.
SIGN    Sure, if you want.
[06:12] Viola
    That's my big brother, Walter!
[06:14] Viola
    He's a nut, but he gets me!
SIGN    That doesn't sound like a compliment at all.
[06:18] Viola
    All right, now let's get to work on your face!
[06:23] Viola
    First the foundation, then some eyeliner...
[06:26] Viola
    Add a wig, and then change your clothes...
[06:30] Viola
    And we're done!
[06:31] Viola
    Look! Look!
SIGN    Impossible...
SIGN    This is me?!
[06:38] Viola
    Don't start taking a liking to it.
[06:40] Viola
    Hey, why don't you go to the villa
    and show it to my dear brother?
SIGN    To the eldest?
SIGN    I'll do it!
SIGN    Because today, I am super-cute!
SIGN    I'll make him fall in love with me and tell Mother all about it!
SIGN    And then I shall become the heir!
[06:58] Viola
    He's such a scumbag.
SIGN    Bam!
SIGN    I call it... Project Honeytrap!
SIGN    Now hurry and get ready to go, Viola!
SIGN    Before my cuteness fades!
[07:10] Viola
    Well, this should be fun, at least!
SIGN    Ha ha! I'm so cute!
[07:25] Duke
    I guess that one was too weak.
[07:27] Duke
    Golf's hard.
[07:30] Alice
    You're getting better, Your Grace.
[07:32] Duke
    I am?
[07:34] Viola
    There you are, Dear Brother!
[07:37] Duke
    Viola and... who?
[07:39] Viola
    Our new maid!
[07:41] Viola
    She says she's a fan of yours, so I brought her.
[07:44] Duke
    A fan? Of me?
[07:46] Viola
    That's right!
[07:47] Viola
    She was all, "A curse?! That's so cool!
    He's totally my type!"
[07:51] Duke
    Oh, I see.
[07:52] Duke
    But why doesn't she talk?
[07:54] Viola
    She's too nervous to talk!
[07:58] Walter
    The fool has no idea what
    I've got in store for him!
[08:01] Walter
    Kneel in awe before me!
[08:03] Walter
    Initiate Project Honeytrap!
[08:07] Walter
    Stare at me! Come on! Stare!
SIGN    What's going on?
SIGN    Most men would react more if a girl flashed her legs, right?
SIGN    Is he some kind of psychopath?
[08:27] Duke
    She started showing me her legs, too.
[08:30] Duke
    Is that just a maid thing?
[08:36] Viola
    Okay, I'll go find Rob!
[08:39] Viola
    You three have fun!
[08:42] Duke
    Wait, Viola!
[08:43] Walter
    She abandoned me already!
[08:45] Viola
    This is hilarious!
[08:47] Viola
    Continue feeling awkward, Brothers!
[08:51] Duke
    U-Um... want to play some golf?
[08:58] Duke
    I'll go first, then.
[09:02] Duke
    Is it true that she's a fan of mine?
[09:04] Duke
    It doesn't sound possible.
[09:08] Walter
    His skills are nothing special.
[09:10] Walter
    If seduction won't work, I'll need
    to think of something else!
[09:14] Alice
    His Grace looks so sexy playing golf!
[09:20] Duke
    Um, you want to go second?
[09:23] Walter
    Second?!
[09:24] Duke
    You can have my second putter.
[09:25] Walter
    Second?!
[09:25] Duke
    And my second ball.
[09:26] Walter
    Second?!
[09:26] Duke
    Sound good?
[09:28] Walter
    Second!
[09:30] Walter
    He's always like this!
[09:31] Walter
    From the very bottom of his heart,
    he mocks me for being the second son!
[09:34] Duke
    Um, you okay?
SIGN    I'm okay.
SIGN    I'm okay.
SIGN    I'm okay.
[09:40] Duke
    "If I get a hole in one,
    please go out with me"?
[09:43] Duke
    Wh... Wh... What?
[09:45] Walter
    Well?
[09:46] Walter
    You may not know me well, but it must
    make you happy to hear that from a girl!
[10:02] Walter
    Distance is 30.
[10:05] Walter
    No wind. Oaken floor.
[10:15] Duke
    "Please marry me like you promised"?
[10:18] Duke
    Marry you? I didn't promise that!
[10:21] Duke
    "It's the same."
[10:23] Duke
    "Let's have the ceremony immediately."
[10:25] Duke
    "Prepare yourself."
[10:26] Duke
    N-No...
SIGN    Let's have the
     ceremony immediately.
SIGN    Prepare yourself.
[10:29] Alice
    No.
[10:31] Alice
    No!
[10:34] Alice
    I'm sorry.
[10:36] Alice
    I forgot my place.
[10:37] Duke
    She's so cute.
[10:38] Duke
    She pulled it over her head...
[10:41] Duke
    Um, I'm sorry if I'm just
    being arrogant here...
[10:46] Duke
    But there's someone I'm in love with,
    so I can't give you what you want.
[10:52] Duke
    I'm willing to be friends, though.
SIGN    Die!
SIGN    Farewell!
SIGN    Farewell!
[11:04] Duke
    Aah!
[11:06] Duke
    Her voice kind of sounded like Walter.
[11:10] Alice
    Did it?
SIGN    Perhaps I wasn't cute enough.
SIGN    Will you instruct me further in the Viola Method?
[11:22] Viola
    Nope!
[11:41] Cuff
    Don't stare so much, Zain. I'm practicing.
[11:44] Zain
    What's the problem? You're good!
[11:46] Cuff
    Don't! You're distracting me!
[11:48] Hugo
    Cuff! I brought you juice!
[11:52] Zain
    She's practicing.
[11:54] Zain
    Scram, kid. Cuff doesn't like sweet stuff.
[11:56] Cuff
    I love juice!
[11:59] Hugo
    And I love you, Cuff.
[12:03] Zain
    Careful. He might've put
    something weird in it.
[12:06] Hugo
    I did not!
[12:08] Hugo
    Stop acting like her boyfriend!
[12:09] Hugo
    You're not dating, right?
[12:12] Cuff
    We're childhood friends.
[12:14] Zain
    That's right.
[12:15] Zain
    "Cuff said no so fast
[12:16] Zain
    It hurt Zain's feelings really bad
[12:17] Zain
    Now he feels blue
[12:18] Zain
    5-7-5, but not quite"
[12:21] Cuff
    Thanks, Hugo.
[12:23] Hugo
    I'll work hard!
[12:25] Hugo
    I'll be a big man for you, Cuff.
[12:29] Cuff
    You're funny.
[12:32] Zain
    I know Cuff only sees Hugo as a kid.
[12:36] Zain
    But I really do not like this!
[12:40] Ringmaster
    You need to win the heart of your precious
    Cuff soon, or Hugo might take her!
[12:45] Zain
    Ringmaster?
[12:47] Ringmaster
    The customers will be
    here soon. Head backstage.
[12:50] Ringmaster
    We'll start the show like always.
[12:52] Zain
    O-Okay.
[12:55] Ringmaster
    You've got it rough, Cuff.
[12:57] Cuff
    Not at all. Every day is fun.
[13:00] Cuff
    I love the circus!
[13:03] Cuff
    Everyone is always so happy.
[13:04] Ringmaster
    Glad to hear it.
[13:06] Ringmaster
    The circus is the best
    entertainment there is.
[13:08] Ringmaster
    All are welcome, both as
    performers and guests.
[13:11] Ringmaster
    That's why I don't care who you
    are, and I won't ask questions.
[13:16] Ringmaster
    But it sounds like a fun story, so I'm curious.
[13:19] Ringmaster
    Tell me any time you feel like it, I guess.
[13:37] Ringmaster
    The show's about to start.
[13:39] Ringmaster
    Thanks to all your work,
    we've got a packed house today.
[13:43] Ringmaster
    Fun. Fascinating. But safety first.
[13:47] Ringmaster
    Stay sharp out there.
[13:49] All
    Yes, sir!
[13:50] Zain
    Win her heart, he said?
[13:52] Zain
    I just can't find the right time to say it...
[13:55] Zain
    If we stay here in the human world,
[13:57] Zain
    somebody's going to find out
    we're witches eventually.
[13:59] Zain
    Should I just disappear and leave her behind?
[14:03] Zain
    No, but...
[14:05] (Flashback) Cuff
    I don't care if I'm a human or
    a witch... as long as I'm with you.
[14:10] Cuff
    You scared?
[14:12] Cuff
    Don't worry. You've got me,
    the great Cuff, by your side!
[14:16] Zain
    She has no idea what I'm going through.
[14:19] Zain
    Sure, she is cute, but...
[14:22] Cuff
    If you're scared...
[14:24] Cuff
    You can always hold my hand.
[14:30] Zain
    If she's that embarrassed,
    then she shouldn't have offered.
[14:37] Ringmaster
    It's time.
[14:38] Ringmaster
    Cuff, Zain, you okay?
[14:41] Cuff/Zain
    It's a "l-let's do our best" handshake!
[14:51] Zain
    I'm such a wimp.
[14:59] Alice
    Tea is ready, Your Grace.
[15:02] Duke
    Yeah, thanks.
[15:09] Duke
    Where am I?
[15:12] Daleth
    Excuse me. Is this seat taken?
[15:14] Duke
    You're... Daleth?
[15:18] Daleth
    I summoned you because
    I have something to discuss.
[15:22] Daleth
    The real you is unconscious
    in the room you were just in.
[15:26] Alice
    Your Grace?
[15:29] Duke
    Is it my curse you wanted to talk about?
[15:34] Daleth
    That's part of it, but first
    I have a favor I wanted to ask.
[15:39] Daleth
    You see...
[15:40] Duke
    Something feels weird...
[15:42] Daleth
    It seems Alice is concerned
    and poking your cheek.
[15:46] Duke
    She is?
[15:47] Alice
    Your Grace?
[15:48] Duke
    Not the neck, Alice!
[15:52] Duke
    That tickles!
[15:57] Duke
    S-Sorry.
[15:59] Daleth
    It's nice how close you two are.
[16:01] Daleth
    Well, whatever.
[16:03] Daleth
    I want you to try and
    persuade someone for me.
[16:08] Duke
    Persuade?
[16:09] Alice
    Just as you humans all
    excel at different things,
[16:13] Alice
    we witches all have magic we excel at.
[16:17] Alice
    Be it controlling fire or
    causing plants to grow...
[16:21] Alice
    Those are the more common types, of course.
[16:23] Alice
    I'm looking for a witch whose
    powers are more advanced.
[16:27] Alice
    A witch with the power
    to control time itself.
[16:34] Alice
    From the look on your face,
    you know who I'm referring to.
[16:37] Alice
    Yes. Zain is a magical genius.
[16:40] Alice
    But for some reason, he hides it.
[16:45] Alice
    If it weren't for the incident with the
    logbook, I couldn't have been sure.
[16:50] Duke
    She knew...
[16:52] Daleth
    And that's why I want you to ask
    him to use his time magic again.
[16:58] Daleth
    He's so nice... He'd do
    anything a friend asked.
[17:03] Daleth
    How about it?
[17:05] Duke
    I can't do that.
[17:06] Duke
    I don't know about his magic.
[17:09] Duke
    And I certainly can't if there's
    some reason he doesn't use it.
[17:12] Daleth
    Well, I thought you'd say that.
[17:16] Daleth
    He's your friend. I understand.
[17:19] Daleth
    But if you can do what I ask...
[17:22] Daleth
    I'm willing to break your curse.
[17:34] Cuff
    You can't sleep?
[17:36] Zain
    It's nothing. Don't worry about it.
[17:40] Cuff
    We've got another performance tomorrow.
[17:41] Cuff
    Get to sleep soon.
[17:43] Zain
    I will.
[17:46] Zain
    Childhood friends...
[17:53] (Flashback) Zain
    I've heard you're the child
    of a witch and a human!
[17:56] (Flashback) Zain
    I'm Zain. What's your name?
[17:59] (Flashback) Cuff
    I won't give you my name until you
    apologize for throwing that rock.
[18:03] (Flashback) Zain
    I'm sorry.
[18:05] (Flashback) Cuff
    I'm Cuff.
[18:07] (Flashback) Cuff
    Nice to meet you.
[18:09] Zain
    My parents sent me to live
    in the human world so that
[18:12] Zain
    other witches wouldn't try to abuse my power.
[18:15] Zain
    But...
[18:17] Zain
    I still didn't understand the
    power of the magic I had.
[18:28] (Flashback) Zain
    It's just barely alive... but it's
     going to wilt at this rate.
[18:37] (Flashback) Zain
    Leave it to me.
[18:38] (Flashback) Zain
    I'll use my magic to fix it.
[18:41] (Flashback) Cuff
    Magic?
[18:46] (Flashback) Cuff
    It came back to life!
[18:48] (Flashback) Zain
    It's easy, as long as you have my time magic!
[18:52] (Flashback) Cuff
    Wow! You're a genius!
[18:54] (Flashback) Zain
    Yeah! It's a secret to everybody, though!
[18:56] (Flashback) Zain
    I can do this, too!
[19:00] (Flashback) Zain
    I stopped time and moved.
[19:02] (Flashback) Cuff
    Wow!
[19:04] (Flashback) Zain
    I know what color your panties are, too!
[19:06] (Flashback) Zain
    They're white with strawberries on them!
[19:09] (Flashback) Cuff
    You stopped time and looked, huh?
[19:14] Zain
    Cuff called me a genius.
[19:18] Zain
    We became friends and played every day.
[19:24] Zain
    But one day while we were out playing,
[19:27] Zain
    our parents were found
    by human witch-hunters.
[19:34] (Flashback) Zain
    Cuff, don't cry! I'll use my time
    magic to bring them back to life!
[19:41] (Flashback) Cuff
    Can you do that?
[19:43] (Flashback) Zain
    Of course I can! I'm Zain, the magical genius!
[19:49] Zain
    I wanted to see her smile.
[19:52] Zain
    But...
[19:57] Zain
    Even magic that can control time
    can't bring the dead back to life.
[20:03] (Flashback) Zain
    I'm sorry, Cuff. I couldn't
    save them with my magic.
[20:08] (Flashback) Zain
    Time can't change fate.
[20:10] (Flashback) Zain
    I'm sorry... I'm sorry.
[20:14] (Flashback) Zain
    I'm so sorry...
[20:19] (Flashback) Cuff
    Don't say you're sorry...
[20:21] (Flashback) Cuff
    Don't say you're sorry, Zain.
[20:24] Zain
    Ever since that day, I've hated my magic.
[20:30] Zain
    I couldn't even protect Cuff's smile.
[20:36] Duke
    Break my curse? What does that mean?
[20:40] Duke
    Did you curse me in the first place after all?
[20:41] Daleth
    Don't get the wrong idea.
[20:44] Daleth
    What I said before was the truth.
[20:46] Daleth
    The witch who cursed you
    is gone from this world.
[20:49] Daleth
    All I can do is...
[20:52] Duke
    What is this?
[20:54] Daleth
    I called a witch I know who
    excels at breaking curses.
[20:58] Daleth
    I don't know if they'll succeed,
    but it gives you hope, right?
[21:03] Daleth
    They'll arrive in a few days.
[21:05] Daleth
    When they're done, do me that favor, please.
[21:08] Duke
    Wait! You can't do this!
[21:11] Duke
    Tell me! Why do you need
    magic that controls time?
[21:14] Duke
    Who are you?
[21:15] Duke
    At least let me see your face!
[21:18] Daleth
    No. I'm ugly.
[21:28] Duke
    Alice! That's dangerous!
[21:30] Alice
    Oh, Your Grace. You hadn't woken up,
     so I was going to do CPR.
[21:35] Duke
    The second you tried, you'd go to sleep forever!
[21:39] Duke
    R-Right! Daleth told me she
    needed me to do something!
[21:43] Duke
    She said a witch is coming!
[21:45] Alice
    Calm down, Your Grace.
[21:48] Alice
    Is that a business card?
[21:58] Duke
    An octopus?
[22:02] Duke
    Why an octopus?
