Birdy the Mighty: Decode (2008) s01e01 Episode Script

1 I've located our target, Birdy.
This time I'm not letting them get away! They're fast! This is hopeless, Boss! This ship can't outrun a Federation investigator! It's too late to whine about that now! Now listen up; I'm only gonna say this once.
Shake 'em off! Geega, I'm hungry.
Can I eat this guy? Hold on, Bacillus.
I'll let you eat this idiot if he stops the ship.
Here it comes, Birdy.
Now I'm pissed! I'm going out there, Tuto.
Roger.
The investigator's boarded the ship! She's here! You caused me trouble I assume you're prepared for the consequences? You ignored a Federation investigator's order to halt the ship! And then you put up armed resistance! You'd better be ready for fifty years' penal servitude! Well? Where's Geega? Hey! Where are Geega and Bacillus?! Answer me! I I! Birdy, it's an escape pod! Hey! Do something, Tuto! It's no good.
They jumped.
That Geega Will the sky one day grow tired of looking down and lose its blue color? There's just one blue sky over this world rife with countless emotions The sound of the battle raging somewhere And the laughter right nearby You can never hear it all Because you have only one story Only this sky sees all at once the sorrow and smiles That simultaneously fall in different places around this wide world Will the sky one day grow tired of looking down and lose its blue color? How can it stay unchanging after watching innumerable dramas? Even now everyone heads to his own story without knowing a thing There's just one blue sky over this world rife with countless emotions Wordlessly marking out time longer than anyone's "Photography Schedule" "Shion Arita" Okay, thanks for everything, Yamamoto baby! She was great again today, Satoru baby.
We've got nothing to worry about with you behind the camera! Would Shion like to join us for lunch? Baby, I'll go with you if we can leave Shion behind and make it a date! I'll pass.
Thank you for waiting, Sirs.
Good work today, girl.
Yes, Sir! Good afternoon, yessiree.
Good work today, Shion baby.
Okay, toodles! Shion was sure a big hit when she went on TV, even if it was just a late show, huh? Yeah, that was great.
The airheaded alien character! I hear she made quite a splash on the internet.
But they say she's turned down all TV work since then.
What a waste! They're biding their time to sell her when she'll rake in the most.
I'm starving Oh, Shion Arita is so cute! - Shion - I'll have to buy two of these, so I can save one! Oh? I'm gonna buy three.
She's drool-worthy! Hey, Senkawa! What do you say to Shiorin's amazing gorgeousness?! Whatever.
Ugh, this is the problem with gloomy types like you! Look! This is Shiorin, the most popular star in Akihabara right now! Well, Senkawa?! She's not my type.
Are you blind, man?! She's older than my big sister You moron! Listen, age is irrelevant with pop stars! Man, I can't believe you're looking at this stuff.
Hayamiya Jeez, the second you got to high school you started getting into girls.
Hey, this is Shion, the one who plays the stupid alien! What?! That's just rude, calling her "stupid," Hayamiya! Call her an "airhead"! This stuff, please.
Hurry up! I'm starving! Yeah, yeah.
Good work today.
Is there really any point in doing this crap? That's no way to talk! We know Geega is on this planet.
It's been six months.
In Oriotera time I mean, in Earth time, it's been five months and 25 days.
Our investigation is getting steadily closer to its goal, Birdy.
How long do I have to do this stuff?! Undercover investigations take time.
Geega has hidden himself in the entertainment world of this planet.
That's info from Irma, though, right? Is she really an Altan? DNA data confirms it.
This planet called "Earth" has a civilization rating of six, which is low, but there seem to be a lot of illegal immigrants from the Federation.
They're living here disguised as Earthlings.
On this hick planet out in the boonies, huh? I think this place is actually pretty interesting.
Well, I don't like it.
If I stay here I just know I'll end up an ugly hag like Irma.
What a thing to say, Birdy.
And here I'm helping you out with your investigation as a fellow Altan! Here on Earth I'm quite famous among ex-Federationers, you know.
A youngster like you has no business calling me a "hag.
" I'm sorry.
Okay, Tuto, hand over today's earnings.
What, this is all? If you don't earn good money as Shion Arita, you may be stuck living here forever.
I'll work! I'll gladly be Shion Arita! Good girl, Birdy.
Maybe I'll give you a little reward.
"Empire Television" "Kunio Giga" Good girl, Birdy.
Maybe I'll give you a little reward.
"Empire Television" "Kunio Giga" Here.
Here.
Sounds like that Giga guy isn't from this planet.
Empire Television It's been almost a year, hasn't it, Mr.
Giga? I'm a patient man, but I need to see some results soon.
Otherwise I can't justify myself to my investors.
But the scientists here are so low-level.
It's going to take more time to find out how to grow the Ryunka.
And it's gotten harder to secure food for it! What, an alien like you is afraid of the police? There might be a Federation investigator on this planet! There are lots of aliens here, huh? Sounds entertaining.
It sounds entertaining, so let's raise the Ryunka as fast as we can.
I'm sure Gomez will be surprised, too.
I look forward to it.
It promises to be more amusing than marionettes.
Well, Tuto? What's the word on this "Giga" guy? He just came out.
A car is here to pick him up.
It looks like he was being wooed by an entertainment production company.
Two men have come to get him.
Oh, I see.
There they go.
Don't lose sight of them.
Follow that car! "String of New Celebs Mysteriously Disappears!!" Follow that car! "String of New Celebs Mysteriously Disappears!!" "String of New Celebs Mysteriously Disappears!!" This time they're not getting away! This time they're not getting away! Crap Let's pretend I didn't see that.
Your car is really the best, Boss! Ya got that right! It's totally bulletproof, too! What is it, Boss? Whoa! Why me? Now this is some nice crumbling! Masakubo and Hazawa are sure late Huh? Oh, a text.
"Inbox" "Masakubo" "Sorry!" "There's an event in Akihabara tomorrow, so Hazawa and I are going to wait in line all night!! Go ahead and explore the ruined hotel by yourself.
" So Hazawa and I are going to wait in line all night!! Go ahead and explore the ruined hotel by yourself.
" What the heck? What the heck? Well, whatever.
Hey there, runaway boy! Hayamiya! What are you doing in a place like this, Senkawa? What does it matter? Don't avoid my eyes! Exploring an abandoned building? How lame.
Go home, then.
Are you going in through here? Yeah.
Sheesh, you're such a kid.
Just go home, already.
Hey, wait a second! Abandoned buildings in the city might be a good scoop for the Journalism Club.
What are you doing? My ass is stuck.
Don't say "ass.
" Come on, Senkawa, pull me through! Go home.
Senkawa! Ugh! It's filthy and it smells like mold! It's great.
What's so fun about a place like this? How should I put this? Abandoned buildings are like dead things.
Dead? Right.
As soon as things that were in use leave human hands, they start to die.
You get me? No, I don't.
What are you doing there?! This is no place for kids to play! The sign said "Keep Out," didn't it?! We're sorry.
You don't have to shout at us! This building belongs to Empire TV! If you don't scram right now, I'll turn you over to the police! Where do you get off?! If this place is so precious Forget it, Hayamiya.
We're very sorry.
We won't come back again.
Please excuse us.
Dammit, kids are so much trouble Where does he get off talking so big?! We're the ones in the wrong, so we can't complain.
Honestly, why are you always like that? You wanted to explore, right?! Abandoned buildings are "abandoned" because nobody's using them! This place doesn't qualify anymore.
What? I guess they wouldn't be here Mr.
Giga? We meet at last! I've been looking for you.
I'd just love for you to use my girl on Empire TV! Come here, Shion.
I'm Shion Arita, yessiree! Who are you people? Aw, you don't remember me, Sir?! I'm so sad, yessiree! Hey, Geega.
This time I'm not letting you go! There's still time.
If you come along quietly, you'll only get, what, maybe 160 years? Birdy the Berserker Killer But if you plan on defying me, you'd better say your prayers.
I had to come out to this hick planet because of you, and I've built up lots of stress! Who cares? I like this place! Get lost, you Federation dog.
That'll add another five years to your sentence.
He's using pretty cheap marionettes.
Maybe I'm a little out of shape after all Damn.
Well, up against an Ixioran Altan Gross.
Birdy, he's undergone biological alterations.
That's not so bad, is it? Makes him a worthier opponent.
It's been a while since I last killed an investigator! Bitch! You're not getting away! Are they recording a TV show? No way.
Hayamiya! Let's take that way out.
Huh? Why?! That bastard Geega is only good at running away Birdy.
The period right before you capture him is the most dangerous.
I know that! Heat source dead ahead.
Tuto! That was close.
So I missed? You bitch! This is I found something outrageous following Giga's trail.
Oh, no That's an Entangle Blade.
It'll pass right through your biodefense shield.
I'll rip you to pieces with this thing! Hmm What now? Die! Got you! What?! Now come along quietly! Hurry! Look out! You're never escaping again! Huh? Shit! Shit! It's got to be a TV shoot after all! Stand back! Those brats, eh? I can use them! What? Senkawa! Hayamiya! She's coming, ain't she? Geega! Here I come, Altan! Birdy, no! Who is this? Who is it, again? I feel like I've seen Huh? Is this my hand? Hey, hang in there! Tuto! Do something, Tuto! Tuto! I feel kind of cold This is weird.
Could I be? What was that all about? Talk about a crazy dream Huh? Why? Tsutomu! How long are you going to sleep?! Mom and Dad are about to leave! Crap! Tsutomu, will you really be okay? I'm sorry, honey, but your father is helpless by himself.
I'll be fine.
You can't help job relocation.
Well, I'll look in on him now and then.
Why?! You two get along, now.
We know.
Don't worry.
Bye! Call us when you get there! So your mom and dad are moving? Yeah.
It's only for six months.
And my sister will come by sometimes.
Anyway, I had this weird dream last night Me too! Huh? Wait, where are your glasses? Oh, apparently my eyes suddenly got better.
You're such a liar! If you switched to contacts, you can just say so! I'm telling you, I didn't! Oh, it's Nakasugi! Nakasugi! Good morning, Hayamiya.
You're all better now? Thank goodness.
Yeah.
I rested for two days, so the doctor says I can come back now.
Thank goodness, really! Now don't overexert yourself anymore, got it? Thank you.
Good morning, Senkawa.
Sounds like it's gonna get hot today.
Morning, Chigira, Sudou.
Yo! So you'll get a new arm from Shyamalan.
And? What about the Ryunka? I'll transfer it somewhere else, obviously, Gomez! I'll let you supervise it, but don't forget that Revi is our end client.
An Ixioran Altan inspector, eh? I'm home! Oh, right.
It's me, Hazumi.
Don't get lazy just cuz you're living by yourself! I'm going to do surprise inspections! "Hazumi Senkawa" I'm going to do surprise inspections! "Hazumi Senkawa" So, I'll be alone from now on Nope, not exactly.
