Godzilla Singular Point (2021) s01e02 Episode Script
Midsummer Devil Festival/'Manatsu Oni Matsuri'
1
If the radio waves
are emitted from Misakioku…
The skeleton with a will in the basement.
Did it come back to life?
Cargo helicopter?
Is that the message from Kamino?
No. It's not supposed to come
for another four days. Too early.
Heavy firearms in a countryside like this.
What are they taking from the basement?
It's him.
What business does
a self-employed journalist have here?
The skeleton with a will.
Is it still alive?
Don't move.
Wait…
Hands behind your heads.
Excuse me. I'll be right back.
A Mr. Makita from the consulate
in Kolkata has a message for you.
India?
A message from Mei Kamino.
"Tyger." He said you'd understand.
"6 = 9"? Is it her?
Put him through.
What a surprise, seeing you guys here.
What are you doing here?
I thought I'd list an item
in an Internet auction.
A journalist moonlighting
as an antique dealer?
Is this skeleton a Singular Point?
I'm impressed you know about it.
Then we can get straight to the point.
This is the first Singular Point
that Ashihara saw.
The very beginning. The magical lamp
that makes the impossible possible.
Singular Points are connected
in a different dimension, right?
There's only one even though
it looks like there are many.
It grows and leads the world
to a catastrophe.
Something that should not exist
in the world.
It must be stopped,
or else the world will perish.
Catastrophe, you say?
It sounds like you know things
that even I don't.
So are you going to save the world?
Or is she going to?
She?
Technology can't be reversed,
but it can be controlled
by people like me.
Like it or not, mankind has to continue
living with the Singular Point.
It's not man-made. Once it's destroyed,
it'll never exist again.
That's right. So how can it be destroyed?
Make a wish to the magical lamp.
I see. You're a romanticist.
But is it possible?
With the Orthogonal Diagonalizer?
What do you think?
It doesn't matter what I think,
but thanks for the interesting story.
RELAUNCH
Communication is down due to Red Dust.
Kaiju Godzilla deflected the attack.
There were flashes of lightning.
Godzilla continues to advance slowly.
I can't believe you got here by yourself.
We have to stop
the Catastrophe right away.
We're wasting time.
Take me to the Super Dimension Calculator.
I'll show you proof of the Catastrophe.
The Orthogonal Diagonalizer
takes precedence over the Catastrophe.
You'll fill in for Li
who had so much faith in you.
But…
If not, you can't stay here.
The loss of our adviser
is also a huge setback for us.
-Over here!
-Mei!
Are you sure about letting
an outsider in here?
We have no choice. BB wants an assistant.
Intruder? Surveillance footage
was deleted? What about the access log?
What?
That woman won't listen to me.
She's so bossy.
Don't get so worked up.
She has complete authority here.
It's better not to cross her.
Still…
Don't you want to see
the Super Dimension Calculator?
It's right below us. Look behind you.
This facility was designed to be
a giant calculator, but it's incomplete.
Incomplete?
It's still being tested.
That huge hole was made by Ashihara
to pull out the Singular Point.
From 2,000 meters below the ground.
A work in progress for 20 years.
It'll take another seven years or so
to get it to the surface.
Its completion will drastically
change the world.
That's the theory.
That's the Singular Point?
Line up here
for the Super Dimension Calculator tour.
They found out already.
What's going on?
-We have to take a different route.
-What?
It's your fault.
They're not here.
BB disappeared?
The Orthogonal Diagonalizer
is being transferred out of storage.
Damn him. He's out of control.
Level Two shutdown in all areas.
Don't let them out of the building.
You stole it?
It's the only way
I could get my hands on it,
but I did go too far sending
the other units all over the world.
But…
It was Li's last will.
Its ability to temporarily contain
Red Dust has been proven.
We can always make more
with the Super Dimension Calculator.
They blocked us.
-I see them.
-They're coming!
I guess the tour is canceled.
So you're the on-site coordinator?
They opened the door?
Authorization defect.
Find out who's accessing the system.
Who's helping them?
Over 1,000 regional earthquakes
have been monitored in an hour.
They're causing
widespread ground subsidence.
There's flooding of groundwater
in areas with soft soil.
Did it cause all that damage by itself?
Mr. Matsubara.
Reconnaissance?
We've been spotted.
Are they claiming their territory?
Let's head back.
OTAKI FACTORY
What do you want?
Is Mr. Goro Otaki here?
No. Do you want to leave a message?
I'm Yasuda from the Cabinet Secretariat.
We came to ask for Otaki Factory's help.
You're too late. He's gone.
Where did he go?
To Tokyo to hunt Godzilla.
A quiet midnight crossing of the river
The enemy is startled by our army
Over ten years of preparing for battle
Yet the enemy easily gets away
"Merciful Heaven,
blood flows down the river!"
Takehiro Kai.
He claims to be a freelance spy.
For an unknown organization?
The chopper from Misakioku seems
to have landed on an offshore cargo ship.
A Panamanian vessel.
Where's Kanoko?
In Kolkata.
Kolkata? India?
TRANSMISSSION STATUS
Even the satellite phones are down.
"If that's the Catastrophe…"
"What is it?"
"What would the future look like?"
Emoji for calm down.
"You need help, right?"
It does sound like a request
to receive something in Tokyo.
The reward is sushi and a helicopter ride?
For receiving the final piece?
Is it going to complete a message
with some sort of instruction?
Maybe Godzilla's weakness?
Why not just tell us straight out?
Why make us wait?
There must be a reason.
A mantra that kills Godzilla.
The death of the user.
I wouldn't disclose that info in advance.
That sounds sinister.
It must be info that changes the future
if it's known in advance.
Maybe it's a prank from the future?
What if it makes Godzilla stronger?
I'm starting to feel uncomfortable
reviewing the signals over and over.
Getting seasick?
No. It's an emotional thing.
Your parts are loosening.
It's about emotions.
Emotions? Like what?
Even a priest is moved to sadness
By a snipe flying in an autumn dusk
Give us a more pragmatic example.
Jet Jaguar processes information
like a human being.
Even we can't logically explain
how we feel all the time.
It's kind of like…
Flames in the darkness. A tiger burning.
Tyger Tyger, burning bright
In the forests of the night
What immortal hand or eye
What happened?
Was the poem too emotional to process?
It's being forced to reboot.
Activating boot loader and virtual
environment. Applying initial seed.
What are you doing? Terminate the reboot.
It won't accept the command.
Cracked? Was there a virus in the message?
The boot loader is repeating itself
and resetting the protocol each time.
Boot loader…
An automatic update?
There's a Manda!
Here it comes! Jet Jaguar, you're up!
What's the matter? Get on the stage!
Was it you? You seem more
like a Whitman than a Blake.
That's the key to lock the Gates of Hell?
It was Professor Li's last wish.
She wanted this delivered to Tokyo.
Where's Kamino?
She's at SHIVA.
It was a bold move,
sending them all over the world.
Now with the right code,
can Red Dust be neutralized?
Not under Tilda's watch.
Without access to SHIVA, we can't
complete the Orthogonal Diagonalizer.
That's why we have Plan B.
I wanted to avoid a cruise,
but I guess we have no choice.
Are you taking her with you?
Li already paid for her tour.
And if the Catastrophe is real,
it'll change things.
All as SHIVA wanted.
Ruins?
Salunga came out from here.
We'll end up right under SHIVA
if we retrace its steps.
That man…
This place is a big melting pot.
Our organization is a mishmash
of a number of operations.
It became unquestionable
after Professor Li's death.
Did you know
that Aladdin was born in China?
I thought he was Arabian.
It's said to be a Chinese tale.
Do you know where it's from?
Arabian Nights.
Everyone thought so, but it isn't.
The Arabic original text about the magical
lamp was translated from the French text.
The magical lamp grants
any wish of the user
except for one.
Reviving the deceased?
A magical lamp that makes the impossible
possible but brings bad luck to men.
How would you use it?
If it's going to cause the Catastrophe,
I'll break it.
How would you break a lamp
that's not of this world?
I'll ask the lamp to think of a way.
I see. You're quite practical.
I'm pleasantly surprised.
We'll let you handle it.
I'm sorry we can't stay.
We have other things to do.
You're making me clean up the mess.
The access account is open.
If you can find a way to complete
the Orthogonal Diagonalizer
Tilda will lose her authority.
It's your chance to save the world.
I wish I were in your shoes.
Now we're going spelunking?
It'll be an exciting adventure!
Chaos continues in Japan.
The government has issued…
Buildings are collapsing…
We're here at the site.
The area is covered in thick Red Dust
that obscures the view.
Red Dust absorbs radio waves…
Is it a virus?
No. It keeps rewriting
and upgrading itself.
That was the 551st time.
We have no signal.
Where is the update info coming from?
Everything must be in that song.
An egg inside an egg
with another egg inside it.
The theory of preformation.
What's that?
A theory that an egg contains
all information about its offspring.
An egg has information about the eggs
that its chick will lay in the future.
And those eggs have information
about the eggs that their chicks will lay.
Infinite information.
That's what's in the message?
The first egg could be simple.
Like compressing the Bible
into five characters.
That's impossible.
You can just transmit B-I-B-L-E,
then use the actual book as a reference.
It sounds like a riddle.
Jet Jaguar's memory storage
is like a huge library.
It can compress large amounts of data
if given the titles, pages, and lines.
Do you mean it specified the chat dates
as well as Jet Jaguar's memory?
I think so.
When is the update going to end?
Is Jet Jaguar going to transform
into something else?
Into its latest version.
Can a goose turn into a swan
while it's laying an egg?
Stop the engine!
Did it spot us?
It's coming!
Where did it go?
It stopped.
Why is this path in the cave?
It's the path Ashihara once took.
He did?
He discovered the Singular Point
in this cave 60 years ago.
He built this path
to conduct his research.
You're literally following
in his footsteps.
How did he discover the Singular Point?
Nobody knows,
but they say the song beckoned him.
You mean the lullaby?
You know about it?
How could a song do that?
I don't know.
Maybe he heard the jellyfish sing it
or Archetype resonated with it.
In any case, Ashihara followed the song
and found the Singular Point
under a red lake in this cave.
That's what they say.
There it is.
Wow.
A red lake…
Over here!
The start of an exciting cruise!
It suddenly started moving
and suddenly stopped.
It's still upgrading itself.
It fought during the upgrading process?
Like a knee-jerk response in humans.
If it saved us, it must mean
it hasn't been hacked by the devil.
Bing.
I think the upgrade is complete.
It's going to wake up.
What now?
Friend or foe? Demon or snake?
Dream or illusion?
We'll find out soon.
Vroom.
What?
What's that? Are you hungry?
Hungry… Me…
Is it turning into a child?
Reconfiguring its vocabulary.
Do you know who I am?
Mama?
No. Do you know your name?
My name? PP…
PP?
Jet Jaguar PP.
Can you count?
One. Two. Many.
What's one plus one?
One plus one.
Reading arithmetic module.
Zero, one, two, three…
Is it learning?
Learning natural numbers
with Peano's axioms.
One plus one is two.
Learning integers, fractions,
rationals, irrationals.
It mastered the concept of numbers?
Excellent student.
Number. 35. 139. 140.
Thirty-five? For what?
Thirty-five. One hundred thirty-nine.
One hundred forty. I'm going there.
Go there? Is it a place?
GPS coordinates?
Latitude 35.681236.
Around Tokyo Station?
How do you know that?
I used to be in a map lovers' club.
What's 140, the last number?
Altitude 140 meters?
GPS uses geoid height.
It could be 40 meters lower.
A hundred meters over Tokyo Station…
Jet Jaguar, what's there?
I don't know yet.
When will you know?
I know already.
2030081609…
It's that time.
A message tomorrow in the sky
over Tokyo Station?
Oh, really?
If you're going to sing, so will I.
