Trigun (1998) s01e04 Episode Script
Love and Peace
You sure you want out here? It's 500 yarz to town.
Thanks for the lift.
You aren't going to listen, are you? Sandstorms are forming All transportation has been stopped with no sign of resumption.
There's nothing we can do.
There, there.
Think of it as a vacation! If this was a vacation, I'd spend it someplace quieter.
I did it! - Not again! - I did it, I did it! An all-club straight! - That's wonderful, miss! - Now I'm getting into it! I can't play like this.
What? You're giving up already? I was just getting started! I wish I never started at all.
Would you like to play? Are you playing Old Maid? She doesn't know any other game, so no, thanks.
Don't be that way, please? I'll play.
All right! Let's begin before my luck changes! On one condition.
We're playing for your life.
There are three things I can't tolerate in this world.
People who put ice in alcohol, the pattern on the silhouette scorpion and slime who don't appreciate tranquillity.
A robbery in my jurisdiction?! Not on my watch! What's the situation? Dick! Inform the earl.
Yessir.
From the testimony of the witnesses the criminal group totals 4, who have taken a total of 4 hostages.
Everyone who got away says that a girl who loves cards is among the hostages, Mr.
Bostalk.
What are their demands? They want $ $ 10,000,000 in nonconsecutive $ $ 100 bills and a getaway wagon.
Did they commit this crime knowing she's my daughter?! Probably.
You're the only one in this town capable of getting $ $ 10,000,000 together in short order.
They won't get away with this! If word of this gets around, hooligans will come swarming! They'll use her as a plaything and leave her to die in the desert! You speak with the wisdom of past experience "Grim Reaper" Bostalk.
Shut up, Stan! If you're the law in this town concentrate on the safe rescue of my daughter! I don't care how many have to die! Don't confuse what's important! Never order me around.
This isn't the old days.
Hey.
- Who is that? - Beats me.
Look out! Get back here, you idiot! We have criminals trapped in that bar!! He's too busy dancing to notice.
That crazy boob! He'll excite the criminals! They've opened fire! He's dodging.
No, he's too busy dancing to notice.
I think he'll make it inside.
Stop it! STOP IT! Who the hell are you? - Are you suicidal? - Or just an idiot? Robbers! Somebody help me!! Help! I never knew what hit me! - He's just an idiot.
Help! I never knew what hit me! No mere idiot would scream like that.
Help me! Help meee! Make that 5 hostages.
The plan hasn't changed.
It just means there's one more life on the line.
How goes it? We got through 2 hours ago.
They will be here by the deadline the criminals gave us.
Earl, you keep praying for your daughter's safety.
Oh, yes, and don't forget the money.
Ow! Be more gentle, brother! I won't try anything! Here, take my gun! What's this? Hey! This is heavy! It's custom-made.
You're packing some serious firepower for a wimp.
Give it back after, please! You shut up! - H-Hello.
- Hello.
Life's been hard since I met you guys.
That sentiment is all mine! Ow! I felt that.
Are you okay? What? Hey! Hey, stop that! Stay still! Creep.
You people are horrible.
That is no way to treat a lady! We're ladies too, you know! Oh, yeah.
She's special.
She serves as a warning! How do you mean? They're probably after my family's fortune! Why else would anyone rob this two-bit bar?! Forgive me, miss.
I failed to protect you! Depressing.
You had better not demand anything too extravagant! Besides, if it's pocket money you want, I can easily get that from Daddy! Pocket money?! Dammit, I'll kill her right now! Knock it off, Jean! - Miss! - Stop! I'll pull the trigger, I swear! Cry! Scream, damn you! Calm down! Calm down, Jean.
You keep your mouth shut, 'cause the next time it might be me.
Let's keep this peaceful, okay? This was your doing! You freaked the living crap out of me! I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Gum? You're kidding! Couldn't be.
You're using them? Yes.
They're a lovely bunch who would easily kill their own family for a little money.
They're quite skillful, and best of all is their lack of respect for the lives of others.
They are the perfect men to take control of the situation.
They won't accidentally shoot my daughter as well, I trust? That depends on what you offer them.
Unless there is money involved they won't be able to tell her apart from a sand roach.
Right? Give them what they want, but don't let them touch my daughter! You've got yourself a team.
Now let's get this party under way.
- Get it through your head! - Yessir.
Shit! It's almost time! Where's the wagon and the money?! They'd better not be playing for time! Save it for later, okay? We've still got work to do.
Excuse me, but if you receive the money, will you release her? Ask her father.
He might try something stupid.
Keep it down.
I'm trying to hear.
Vash the Stampede?! Yeah, The Humanoid Typhoon is in this town.
Hey, if big man Bostalk or the sheriff hires him, we're toast! He'll kill us all! Don't lose your head.
It's almost time.
Hey, hey! Something's coming! Shut up! You stay still!! Yessir.
It's here! It's the wagon! Stay still!! Here's your wagon and $ $ 10,000,000 in nonconsecutive bills! We have met your demands! Release your hostages immediately! Not yet! First we check the wagon and the money! By the way try anything, and the hostages are dead meat! Got that?! I'll go.
Be careful.
Will your father hand over the money without a fuss? Daddy will do anything for me.
Stan is another matter.
It's a trap! - Marvin! - That bastard!! Idiot! Come back here, Jean! Jean! - You okay? - I think so! Is this how they do things in this town? It's really harsh! I told you the sheriff wasn't normal! You! Don't bother.
You could have slipped the ropes at any time.
Who the hell Hey, robber man! Stick your head out! The pretty little head we've been given official authorization to blow off! - What'll we do? - What should we do? C-C-Can I kill him? You can kill anyone but the girl! Neat! S-Stop! Don't kill me! Sorry, I can't hear you over all the gunfire! Has anyone ever told you that you lack affection? What're you doing?! Shoot him! Do you think you have a hostage?! Shoot him! Then we'll have more to go around! Rem This guy's a fool! Look out!! What are you thinking?! Why didn't you shoot him? You didn't want to shoot him! Well, you know I don't like pain.
Never mind.
Are you okay? Now do you see? The sheriff never planned to give you the money! I'll ask Daddy to let you go, so stop this now! I can't do that.
What? There's a good reason I can't.
You know the huge graveyard northeast of town? Our parents lie under that ground, so barren even corpse weeds won't grow.
All of my memories are of them working, covered in dirt but after 10 years, they made this sandy soil arable.
It was a huge accomplishment.
But 15 years ago, the land they had put everything into was stolen from them by your father.
After "Grim Reaper" Bostalk slaughtered them all! You're lying! What good would lying do me now? I couldn't care less about the money.
Whatever happens I won't run.
But I will take my revenge for 15 years ago! No matter what.
You can't forget something like that.
What's happening? What?! Hang on.
We'll patch you up soon.
Am I gonna die? Don't worry.
The bullet went through, and your pals are alive.
I will now relay the demands of the criminals! You're going? He's named me and he has my daughter.
I can't refuse him.
But one thing, Stan I'll make sure you're held responsible for this later.
He was feared as Bostalk "The Grim Reaper" 18 years ago.
How the love of a daughter and the passage of time can change a man! You have what you want.
Let the girl go.
Forgive me.
It's hard to have a past you can't bury.
Don't look away.
I know you're not foolish enough to stay ignorant of the feelings of the people your life was built on.
I know.
I know! But even if he did these horrible things to me, he's my daddy! No matter how bad or selfish I was to me, he was always my daddy who loved me! Daddy! Daddy, hold on!! Daddy! Daddy! I'm all right.
It's only my shoulder.
What are you crying about? Thank you! You have no business thanking me.
A distraction threw my aim.
This weirdo is really crying! I'm turning myself in now.
Whoa, there.
It's too soon for the epilogue.
That's enough.
I'm through resisting.
Don't say that.
I need you to resist.
What? I never dreamed I'd be given such an opportunity.
"Trapped criminal kills Mr.
Bostalk!" "Sheriff forced to shoot bandit attempting resistance.
" It makes for a pretty article.
Stan! You hold the position of sheriff! How could you?! And I rose no higher than sheriff.
Don't you agree that it's my turn to sip the sweet wine? You were in on it, too? - You scoundrel! - You fiend! Throw down your weapons! Lovely, like toothless stray dogs.
It feels grand to be superior! One question.
How does it feel to kill passive human beings? Do you feel anything when you burn your garbage? I see.
Nifty answer.
W-What?! Awesome, ma'am! I'm amazed you knew I was armed.
You helped me in the bar, remember? I can recognize the smell of gunpowder and grease instantly.
Well, now You bastards! Hey, Sheriff! How does it feel to be at the mercy of a stray dog? Dammit! Relax, I won't kill you.
But, you are unfit to be sheriff! I'll teach you something useful, Sheriff! Repeat after me! - This land - Th-This land IS MADE OF is made of?! LOVE & PEACE!! When something is gained, something is always lost.
It's impossible to live without facing that fact.
What is lost will never return.
Important things.
Irreplaceable things.
The things necessary to protect those things.
The firm determination packed into a bullet.
Man knows knows that nothing will begin unless he speaks.
That nothing will change unless he moves.
Thanks for the lift.
