Is That the Best This Country Has to Offer?

As I was saying,
CABINET APPROVAL RATING PLUMMETS
I will make sure to do as such.
-Mr. Prime Minister!
-Mr. Prime Minister!
That is all Prime Minister Sasagawa
had to say about his approval rating.
If his rating decreases another 1%,
it will mark a new low in the history
of cabinet approval ratings
There's me!
I knew it!
The person we just saw on TV,
that's him, right?
At 1:00 p.m, you have
a courtesy visit from Ms. Broccoli,
followed by the Spinach Girls
at 2:00 p.m.
PRIME MINISTER
MOTOFUMI SASAGAWA
At 5:00 p.m., you're having
dinner at a hotel with King Radish.
Okay, got it.
-I'm going to eat broccoli?
-That is correct.
And I'll be eating spinach
and radish too?
In an appetizing way, if possible.
Wait, you won't eat radish!
Wow! Prime ministers are pretty cool!
They're very important, right?
I bet he's the most important person
in the whole country.
But I was wondering
Why are we even here?
Let's get out of here!
TWO HOURS EARLIER
I'll get you if it's the last thing I do!
I think this is a code
that tells us where Mommy is.
We can find her by decoding this.
Is that so?
Prime Minister Sasagawa should resign!
-Resign!
-Resign!
Down with the Sasagawa administration!
We better get out of here!
Ta-da!
Huh?
What the heck?
Oh, there he is.
Down with the Sasagawa administration!
And that's how we ended up here.
But we need to hurry and find a way out
so we can go find Mommy!
What a drag.
What a drag.
I totally get you.
You get me?
I guess so.
I know, right?
Trying to throw us off guard and nab us?
I won't do something like that.
I start seeing things
when I'm lazing around like this.
Really?
-I don't know.
-I don't know.
If the most important person
in the country is like this,
I fear for the future.
It's not easy being prime minister,
you know.
It's complicated.
Well, when people say "complicated,"
there's usually a childish reason
behind it.
No, that's not true.
For instance, my approval rating.
It's falling.
If it drops another 1%,
it'll be a record low.
See? It's difficult and complicated.
Who cares if it's the lowest?
I do.
But why?
Well, because
I just do! I just do, okay?!
You're acting like a child.
I didn't wanna be prime minister!
No use crying over spilled milk.
You're right.
But it's a tough gig.
It's like being told
what I'm doing is completely worthless.
Who gets to decide what something's worth?
A prime minister's worth
is decided by the people.
Shouldn't you be the one who decides?
I thought so too, at first.
I wanted to become the ideal politician
and make the country
better for the people.
That was back when I was
a newly hatched politician.
You're lucky.
You're not rotten like I am.
You are still an egg.
You can become anything you want.
Is that so?
Yeah, that's right.
A fried egg,
an egg sandwich, or scrambled eggs.
You can become anything.
Well, I suppose a hard-boiled egg
is out of the question.
In that case, maybe I'll try.
I'll try being prime minister.
What?
An egg can become anything
GUDETAMA

It's easy if you have a dream

CANDIDATE NAME: GUDETAMA
Even the most unexpected person
I can probably do it.
Congratulations!
I don't believe it!
The economic outlook is eggcellent.
-Wow!
-Wow!
-So transparent!
-So profound!
-Isn't it semitransparent?
-It's just a raw egg, right?
-Swim, swim
-Mr. Prime Minister!
What are your thoughts
on your approval rating?
I don't care about ratings.
Are you saying
you're gonna go your own way?
That was so moving.
Or should I say, I long to be like you,
a prime minister true to oneself.
-Deputy Prime Minister, soy sauce.
-You got it!
Maybe I'm not as rotten as I thought.
This desire
to be true to myself and become
the kind of politician I want to be
If I still have it inside of me
In that case, let's trade places.
What?!
Prime Minister Gudetama
has resigned today due to poor health.
The Deputy Prime Minister, Sasagawa
will be appointed prime minister.
PRIME MINISTER GUDETAMA RESIGNS
People could only view
Gudetama as a raw egg,
a deep-seated opinion
identified as one of the reasons
for the administration's short life.
I'll take what I learned from you
and work even harder as prime minister.
In my own style and at my own pace.
That's what you learned?
I almost forgot.
I wanted to tell you something.
Be careful not to go rotten like me.
Eggs have an expiration date.
An expiration date?
You'll go rotten?
Yes, it's only a matter of time.
Seriously?
I spent too much time campaigning.
Excuse me, Mr. Prime Minister.
They're almost ready for you to
Mr. Prime Minister?
-Someone help!
-At my own pace
What is it?
The prime minister!
Huh?
Did you do this?
I guess I may have.
Shame on you. You're under arrest.
We'll never find Mommy if we get arrested!
Oh, no!
Gudetama!
