[00:02] (Flashback) Young Vash
    Good morning, everyone.
[00:10] (Flashback) AI
    1\an8}This is a Level E-3 emergency.
[00:13] (Flashback) AI
    1\an8}This ship is in free fall.
[00:14] (Flashback) Young Vash
    Nai! Rem!
[00:17] (Flashback) Rem
    Get inside. And hurry.
[00:19] (Flashback) Young Vash
    Rem?
[00:20] (Flashback) Rem
    Meeting you...
[00:22] (Flashback) Rem
    ...has brought me so much joy!
[00:24] (Flashback) Young Vash
    Rem!
[00:28] (Flashback) Young Vash
    REM!
[00:44] (Flashback) Young Naives

[01:02] Radio Host
    There's nothing on this planet.
[01:05] Radio Host
    No water. No food.
[01:06] Radio Host
    Without plants, our ancestors
    would have gone straight to heaven.
[01:11] Radio Host
    "We would've been better off
    that way"? Right on!
[01:16] Radio Host
    Was surviving in this hellscape
    really a stroke of good fortune?
[01:21] Radio Host
    Or should we be pitied for our bad luck?
[01:24] Radio Host
    Anyway, here's a tune...
[01:41] OP Lyrics
    My tears scattered like bits of paper
[01:45] OP Lyrics
    Scared of the unknowable tomorrow
[01:48] OP Lyrics
    I lived the same day over
    and over, back and forth
[01:52] OP Lyrics
    But a new morning never came
[01:56] OP Lyrics
    All the reasons to calm down
[01:58] OP Lyrics
    Are just some moments until the crash
[02:03] OP Lyrics
    I’m no longer the one that everyone knows
[02:06] OP Lyrics
    Took off the fragile armor
[02:10] OP Lyrics
    I don’t want to lose any more love
[02:18] OP Lyrics
    I don’t want to lose any more love
[02:25] OP Lyrics
    There’s still no line
    between today and tomorrow
[02:28] OP Lyrics
    My waking nightmare doesn’t end
[02:32] OP Lyrics
    And yet I won’t lose hope
[02:36] OP Lyrics
    And yet there’s no night
    that doesn’t end
[02:42] OP Lyrics
    Not here, not here
[02:58] Radio Host
    Late last night, two dangerous criminals
     escaped the May City Prison!
[03:02] Radio Host
    These criminals, known as the Nebraskas,
    were convicted of 69 counts of manslaughter
[03:08] Radio Host
    and twelve counts of attempted murder.
[03:12] Bargoer 2-A
    That's nearby!
[03:14] Bargoer 2-B
    How disturbing.
[03:15] Meryl
    So what you're saying is that...
[03:18] Meryl
    you're not the person running around
    stealing plants all over the planet.
[03:23] Meryl
    And the real culprit is your twin brother
     who looks exactly like you.
[03:30] Roberto
    A different man with the same face, huh?
[03:34] Roberto
    Sounds a bit too convenient.
[03:36] Meryl
    There's no proof, either.
[03:38] Roberto
    In other words, we can't just
    take you at your word.
[03:45] Meryl
    You can't cry your way out of this.
[03:48] Roberto
    So, this brother... "Knives" was it?
[03:51] Roberto
    What does he want with the plants anyway?
[03:54] Meryl
    Is it about money? Or maybe honor?
[03:57] Roberto
    Could it be revenge?
[04:05] Roberto
    What's up, kiddo?
[04:07] Vash
    Are those for me?
[04:11] Vash
    Thanks, Tonis. I'll take good care of them.
[04:15] Meryl
    Oh, what a heartwarming scene...
[04:17] Roberto
    Like you're even looking.
[04:19] Meryl
    Is he gone?
[04:20] Roberto
    Not yet.
[04:21] Rosa
    Tonis!
[04:22] Rosa
    How many times do I have to tell you
    not to bring Worms into the diner?!
[04:27] Rosa
    You stay outta here for a while!
[04:29] Meryl
    You didn't have to go that far.
[04:32] Rosa
    Now then...
[04:40] Rosa
    Real sorry about this, Vash.
SIGN    #02 The Running Man
[04:59] Rosa
    Don't let him get away!
[05:06] Townsperson 2-A
    This way!
[05:08] Townsperson 2-B
    He's here!
[05:19] Townsperson 2-C
    Over here!
[05:27] Vash
    Oh dear.
[05:28] Townsperson 2-D
    Got him!
[05:32] Meryl
    Vash!
[05:35] Meryl
    Now!
[05:36] Roberto
    Yeah, yeah.
[05:46] Roberto
    What the hell is going on?
[05:47] Meryl
    You're heavy...
[05:48] Vash
    That's what I'd like to know.
[05:59] Nebraska
    What's wrong with this hunk of junk?!
[06:02] Soldier 2-A
    All the cars out here are like this.
[06:05] Nebraska
    For crying out loud! I can't have
    my son turning stupid on me!
[06:08] Soldier 2-A
    If you wanted better stuff,
    you should've gone to a big city like JuLai.
[06:12] Nebraska
    I think I will, thank you very much.
[06:14] Nebraska
    Right after we catch this loser
    and get our six million!
[06:19] Nebraska
    Seriously, what a dumb face...
[06:22] Nebraska
    He's got to be an easy catch, Gofsef!
[06:28] Vash
    Why'd they use this photo?
[06:31] Roberto
    Is that really the issue?
[06:34] Townsperson 2-E
    So those journalists were part of his gang?
[06:36] Townsperson 2-F
    Whatever. We'll just catch them all.
[06:38] Townsperson 2-G
    We can demand a higher bounty for 'em.
[06:42] Roberto
    Great idea, trying to save this guy.
[06:45] Meryl
    I'm sorry.
[06:46] Roberto
    If you could actually put up a fight,
    this would be a lot easier.
[06:49] Vash
    What? You wanna have a shoot-out?
[06:52] Vash
    Come on...
[06:53] Meryl
    Don't tell me you forgot
    to load up on ammo again.
[06:56] Vash
    No, I made sure I brought plenty today.
[06:59] Vash
    But I'd rather not use them.
    Bullets are pretty pricey.
[07:03] Meryl
    You could get locked up!
[07:05] Vash
    But one bullet is worth
    two whole slices of pizza!
[07:08] Roberto
    We're as good as dead.
[07:10] Vash
    Hey, hey! Come on!
[07:12] Vash
    We just have to get out of town, right?
[07:19] Townsperson 2-H
    I see him!
[07:21] Townsperson 2-I
    Hey, someone saw him!
[07:22] Townsperson 2-J
    Found him!
[07:23] Townsperson 2-K
    Come on!
[07:27] Townsperson 2-L
    That's a dead end!
[07:31] Townsperson 2-M
    Damn it, he got us.
[07:37] Townsperson 2-N
    Find him!
[07:49] Rosa
    Vash.
[07:50] Rosa
    Don't make this any harder.
[07:57] Nebraska
    I'm looking forward to this.
    Aren't you, Gofsef?
[08:04] Soldier 2-A
    Looks like someone already caught him.
[08:06] Nebraska
    What?!
[08:09] Nebraska
    Whatever! We'll steal him from them!
[08:11] Nebraska
    Run them over!
[08:13] Soldier 2-A
    For real? You promised you'd
    let me go before we hit town!
[08:17] Nebraska
    Shut him up, Gofsef.
[08:23] Nebraska
    You idiot!
[08:25] Nebraska
    Now who's going to drive this thing?!
[08:31] Rosa
    With the plant in this state,
    all we have to rely on is money.
[08:35] Meryl
    How can you be so heartless?!
[08:37] Meryl
    Who does this to someone who saved
    their town twice? It's unthinkable!
[08:42] Rosa
    I know that.
[08:45] Rosa
    I wouldn't dare if were just adults here.
[08:48] Rosa
    But we're mothers.
[08:51] Rosa
    I won't stand by while
    our kids get sick and starve.
[08:55] Rosa
    Sorry, Vash. If you need to lay the
     blame somewhere, call it bad luck.
[09:10] Rosa
    Tonis!
[09:24] Roberto
    You good?
[09:25] Meryl
    Yeah.
[09:26] Rosa
    Tonis...
[09:30] Nebraska
    Power is justice! Power is truth!
[09:32] Rosa
    Vash?
[09:34] Nebraska
    There's no future for those who can't fight!
[09:36] Nebraska
    Get out here, Vash the Stampede!
[09:39] Nebraska
    We, the Hard Puncher Nebraskas,
    challenge you to a duel!
[09:44] Nebraska
    Where are you, Vash the Stampede?!
[09:49] Meryl
    Vash?
[09:51] Nebraska
    Stop! My six million!
[09:56] Meryl
    Hurry! After them!
[09:58] Roberto
    Wait... Hey!
[10:09] Vash
    Go back to town!
[10:11] Meryl
    What about you?
    They're going to mow you down!
[10:14] Nebraska
    Don't think you can get away!
[10:33] Nebraska
    Ugh, stop, you bastard!
[10:35] Nebraska
    I can't have my son turning stupid!
[10:40] Nebraska
    Do it, Gofsef!
[10:47] Vash
    Now that's a punch.
[10:50] Nebraska
    I'll end you!
[10:52] Nebraska
    Get flattened!
[10:59] Nebraska
    You piece of junk!
[11:07] Roberto
    Did their engine stall?
[11:10] Vash
    Beats me.
[11:11] Roberto
    Well...
[11:18] Nebraska
    Stop running and fight us!
[11:21] Vash
    No thanks. I'm not a fan of pain.
[11:25] Nebraska
    Have you no pride as a gunman?!
[11:28] Vash
    Nope. None whatsoever.
[11:31] Nebraska
    I hate cowards like you!
[11:35] Nebraska
    This whole planet is fighting for survival!
[11:37] Nebraska
    Anyone who runs is bound
    to die like a sorry loser!
[11:41] Nebraska
    But you, Stampede! How dare you?!
[11:50] Vash
    That had to hurt.
[11:57] Nebraska
    I can't have my son turning stupid!
[12:01] Vash
    Take it easy!
[12:03] Nebraska
    You insult me!
[12:06] Gofsef
    Gofsef.
[12:08] Nebraska
    This is no laughing matter!
[12:09] Nebraska
    You're turning into a coward like him.
[12:12] Nebraska
    You shame the Nebraska name!
[12:14] Nebraska
    Damn it, damn it!
[12:17] Nebraska
    Without that cash,
    we're going back to prison!
[12:20] Nebraska
    Oh, I know.
[12:33] Meryl
    I agree with that man.
[12:36] Meryl
    You think you're so clever,
    running away like this?
[12:44] Meryl
    How totally lame.
[12:47] Meryl
    It's not an act of kindness.
    You're just running away from pain.
[12:52] Roberto
    That's enough, newbie.
[12:55] Meryl
    Fine.
[12:57] Vash
    You might be right that I'm too timid.
[13:01] Vash
    But is that such a terrible thing?
[13:05] Vash
    Is fighting everything head-on so important?
[13:10] Vash
    Even if it gets someone killed?
[13:20] Townsperson 2-O
    Don't let them get in! Fire!
[13:30] Tonis
    Mom!
[13:37] Nebraska
    How did we miss this?
[13:39] Nebraska
    There's something much more valuable here.
[13:43] Nebraska
    A real treasure!
[13:49] Radio Voice
    Intruders at the factory! We need backup now!
[13:52] Radio Voice
    We need backup—
[13:57] Meryl
    Vash?
[14:00] Roberto
    Get in, newbie!
[14:01] Meryl
    Okay!
[14:13] Nebraska
    Power is justice!
[14:17] Nebraska
    Power is truth!
[14:23] Nebraska
    There's no future for those who can't fight!
[14:30] Woman 2-A
    Rosa! We can't shoot or we might hit the plant.
[14:33] Rosa
    You folks stay here.
[14:35] Woman 2-A
    Rosa!
[14:40] Rosa
    You give back that plant!
[14:57] Nebraska
    Wha?!
[14:58] Nebraska
    Stampede!
[15:05] Nebraska
    What are you doing back here, you coward?
[15:09] Nebraska
    Don't tell me you did all that running to
     draw our attention away from the plant.
[15:15] Nebraska
    Eh, who cares?
    Now we can finally fight head-on.
[15:23] Nebraska
    Gofsef!
[15:39] Nebraska
    Why won't you draw your gun?!
[15:42] Nebraska
    Draw!
[15:44] Nebraska
    What gives?!
[15:46] Nebraska
    Why won't you shoot?
[15:48] Vash
    Right back at you!
[15:50] Nebraska
    A single round for this baby
    costs a boatload! I'm saving up!
[15:54] Nebraska
    Don't make me say that out loud!
[15:56] Vash
    I guess we've all got problems, huh?
[15:57] Nebraska
    Shut up!
[15:58] Nebraska
    I'll show you.
[16:01] Nebraska
    Gofsef!
[16:06] Nebraska
    Weapons...
[16:08] Nebraska
    are made for fighting!
[16:17] Rosa
    Vash...
[16:18] Meryl
    Vash!
[16:24] Nebraska
    Do you get it now?!
[16:26] Nebraska
    There's no future for those who don't fight!
[16:29] Vash
    That was close.
[16:31] Nebraska
    Wha?!
[16:34] Vash
    Come on, can you back off?
[16:37] Vash
    I really don't want to fight anyone.
[16:39] Nebraska
    That's the attitude that pisses me off!
[16:42] Vash
    If you take the plant,
    this town won't make it.
[16:47] Nebraska
    You remember they're after your head, right?
[16:50] Nebraska
    They're worse than regular villains
    for pretending to befriend you.
[16:55] Nebraska
    What value is there in trying to save them?
[16:58] Vash
    There's no reason not to help them.
[17:01] Nebraska
    They tricked you!
[17:04] Vash
    I don't mind.
[17:06] Nebraska
    Don't you have any pride?
[17:09] Vash
    These people were kind to me.
[17:13] Vash
    So I want to save them. That's all.
[17:20] Nebraska
    In that case...
[17:24] Nebraska
    Fight!
[17:42] Nebraska
    Seriously?
[17:46] Vash
    I want to help.
[17:48] Vash
    That includes you.
[17:50] Roberto
    This guy...
[17:53] Roberto
    Whose side are you on?
[18:03] Nebraska
    Oh no! Run, Gofsef!
[18:11] Nebraska
    Gofsef!
[18:16] Nebraska
    You idiot!
[18:19] Gofsef
    Gof...sef...
[18:28] Vash
    You're almost there!
[18:32] Gofsef
    Gof!
[18:34] Nebraska
    Gofsef!
[18:48] Vash
    I've... got you!
[18:51] Nebraska
    Gofsef! Gofsef!
[18:59] Vash
    Rosa...
[19:05] Nebraska
    H-He's my darling son...
[19:11] Vash
    Rosa!
[19:12] Vash
    Please! I need your help!
[19:17] Rosa
    You give back that plant.
[19:20] Nebraska
    Yes, ma'am.
[19:23] Rosa
    Come on, everyone!
[19:26] Rosa
    One, two! One, two!
[19:31] Rosa
    One, two! One, two!
[19:37] Rosa
    One, two!
[19:39] Nebraska
    Gofsef!
[19:42] Nebraska
    I'm so glad! I'm so, so glad!
[19:47] Nebraska
    Gofsef!
[19:59] Meryl
    Vash the Stampede...
[20:02] Meryl
    What a weirdo.
[20:07] Nebraska
    Let's go, Gofsef.
[20:11] Vash
    Take it easy.
[20:14] Rosa
    Hold it.
[20:17] Rosa
    There's plenty of booze to go around.
[20:19] Rosa
    Just for today, knock yourselves out!
[20:25] Nebraska
    Drinking at this hour?
    These folks really are terrible.
[20:29] Rosa
    Don't be shy.
[20:32] Nebraska
    I don't drink.
[20:33] Rosa
    What?
[20:47] Meryl
    You know what?
[20:48] Meryl
    You gotta lay off the booze and smokes
    or that stuff's gonna get to you!
[20:55] Meryl
    Hey, are you listenin' to me?
[21:15] Roberto
    Not even a goodbye?
[21:18] Roberto
    They'll miss you.
[21:20] Vash
    I don't like overstaying.
[21:23] Roberto
    No, that's not it.
[21:24] Roberto
    You couldn't stay in one place for long
    even if you wanted to.
[21:31] Roberto
    Just who are you running from?
[21:34] Roberto
    Wait... You told me his name this morning.
[21:38] Roberto
    Millions Knives.
[21:48] Meryl
    Vash! Roberto!
[21:49] Roberto
    What's going on?
[21:51] Nebraska
    What is this stuff?!
[21:55] Roberto
    Lost technology?!
[22:05] Nebraska
    Gofsef!
[22:20] ED Lyrics
