My Daemon (2023) s01e06 Episode Script

Awakening

[rock daemon growls]
[rock daemon grunts]
[dramatic music plays]
We're gonna draw O's attention,
so get out of there!
Got it.
We'll get down. Anna?
- [Anna] Anna!
- [Momoka exhales]
Okay. Let's go!
[dramatic music crescendos]
[mysterious music plays]
[music fades]
Absolutely! That is absolutely the daemon.
[woman] Where is
the capture squad right now?
I know they were searching for
a unique daemon to use as a test subject.
Have they returned from Africa yet?
Yes, they just came home recently.
I'll find out where they are.
KOKONOE
[device rings]
[man 1] I thought I was able
to take some more time off.
[man 2] Sorry. The daemon
the chairman's been looking for is here.
[man 1] Oh?
[man 2] It's called "storage daemon."
A normal collar can be stored, and that
might cause it to go out of control,
so I recommend using
an embedded fusion-type collar.
Can you catch it?
Well, that is what I'm trained for.
My paper daemon,
take scissors daemon and attack!
[paper daemon] Paper, paper!
[dramatic music plays]
[scissors daemon] Scissors, scissors,
scissors, scissors, scissors, scissors!
Scissors!
[dramatic music continues]
[O roars]
- [paper daemon] Paper!
- [O roars]
[paper daemon] Paper, paper!
- [grunting]
- [O growls]
[rock daemon] Rock!
- Rock!
- [O growls]
[dramatic music continues]
[Rock daemon groans]
[paper daemon] Paper!
Paper! Paper.
[Momoka panting]
[Momoka yelps]
We made it. We're out.
- [Reiji] Momoka!
- [Momoka whimpers]
Kento! Anna!
Ms. Kaede!
- [Momoka] Daddy!
- [Reiji] Momoka.
- [O roars]
- Oh, careful.
Come on! Let's get outta here!
Hey, look at that!
[O roars]
[dramatic music continues]
[Hiruta grunts]
This isn't going to be good.
[Momoka squeals]
Everyone, run!
[dramatic music continues]
- Igisu!
- [Igisu] Igi!
[O roars]
- [Kento yells]
- Anna!
[Kento grunts]
[O growls]
Igisu.
Kento?
Kento!
Wait!
[dramatic music plays]
- [man] Whoa.
- [Momoka] It's coming! [cries]
[dramatic music continues]
[Igisu] Igi! Igi, igi, igi!
[Anna] Anna, anna.
Anna. Anna!
Anna!
Anna.
[O growls]
[music fades]
[man] Are you the one
who provided us with this video?
Yeah, that's right.
And this is the one,
the same one you saw fighting with O?
Sure is. At first, I thought she was
just another tiny, insignificant daemon.
But something happened
and she went nuts.
[Reiji] Huh?
[man groans]
Kento!
[tense music plays]
[Anna whimpers]
Anna.
Anna!
A-anna!
Anna.
Anna!
Anna!
Anna. Annaaa!

Watch out!
[O roars]
[dramatic music plays]
[O roars]
[O roars]
[Momoka screams]
[O groans]
[Anna] Anna.
Oh, man, what is happening over there?
[Anna coughs] Anna!
[Anna growls] Anna!
[Anna growls and squeals]
[dramatic music plays]
[Anna growls]
[dramatic music continues]
[Anna] Aaaaanaaaaa!
[O roars]
[dramatic music continues]
[Anna] Aaaaanaaaaa!
[O roars]
Oh, wow.
[Anna snarls]
[tense music plays]
[Anna roars]
[Igisu] Igi, igi.
[Anna roars]
Something is wrong with her.
[Anna shrieks]
[dramatic music plays]
[man yells]
[Hiruta strains]
Dad!
- [Reiji] Momoka!
- [Momoka whimpers]
[Momoka whimpers]
[music fades]
[Kento groans softly]
[tense music plays]
[gasps]
Anna? Where are you?
[tense music continues]
Anna!
[all groan]
Huh?
[tense music continues]
[Kento] Anna? Anna!
No! What am I gonna do?
Wait, I know!
[tense music continues]
[Kento blows]
Aaaaana. Anna.
- You're back!
- Anna. Anna.
Anna, I'm so happy you're okay! [laughs]
[Anna] An-an-a. Na-na. Anna.
[tense music continues]
- [Anna] Anna!
- [Kento] I was so worried, Anna.
I guess I never realized
how flat you could actually get.
Momoka, are you all right?
Did we make it?
Oh yes, apparently.
[both exhale]
[Kento] Anna, what do you wanna eat
for dinner tonight?
[Anna] Na-na.
[Kento] How about chikuwa? [laughs]
[Anna] Anna.
[Kento giggles]
[Kaede] Kento.
Ms. Kaede, where's O?
- Anna got rid of it.
- [Kento] Anna did?
- Anna?
- She doesn't remember anything.
Oh.
Bingo. She's the storage daemon all right.
Looks like the bounty's gone up now.
200 million yen.
There's no chance to catch her.
She took down O.
Well, they're also offering a small fee
to anyone who can give them
good information about her.
It's better than nothing,
I guess. Aw, man.
- [Momoka groans]
- [Anna] Anna.
- [Momoka] Hm?
- Here.
Huh? Mm.
[Momoka] Mm, it's yummy!
Uh, but I'll never say thank you.
'Cause daemons are my enemies!
[chuckles] She's so stubborn.
[Anna] Anna.
[Momoka] What? Why are you laughing at me?
- You stop it!
- [Kento laughs]
- [Momoka] Come on, tell me why!
- Because.
See you later!
Thank you!
END OF RESTRICTED AREA
[man] So the woman who's been
with the target is Kaede Houjou?
You're certain?
Yeah, that's what she was called.
You know her?
[man] Sort of. Thank you for your help.
[Kento] This town still has
plenty of old buildings in it.
[Kaede] Well, many of them
were relocated here.
What does that mean?
They were brought here.
It's hard to preserve old buildings
since the daemon disaster.
So they move them to a safe place
to make the upkeep easier.
[Kento] Whoa!
Wow, is that the real one?
[Kaede] Of course.
[gasps] Thank you so much.
We appreciate your business.
- We'll prepare a suite for you right away.
- I'll take a standard room.
- I'll need two of them please.
- [receptionist] Absolutely.
Let's meet up for dinner later.
There's a pretty good yudofu shop
on the restaurant level.
Let's meet there at 17:00.
That's my phone number.
Call me if you need anything.
Thanks. I got it.
[Kento gasps] Oh, it's been a while
since I've slept in a bed!
Woo-hoo! [laughs]
Yeah! [laughs]
- Hello.
- [woman] Is that really you, Ms. Kaede?
[Kaede] Hey, did you know
that the Peace Organization
put a bounty on the storage daemon?
Uh, yes, yes, it's been rumored here too.
I want to know why.
[woman] Uh, well, you know
I can't leak information to outsiders.
- Uh-
- So you consider me to be an outsider?
Okay, I got it, I got it, jeez!
Well, they say that storage daemons
are a little bit No, quite dangerous.
Remember when Seori Island
disappeared 18 years ago?
Rumor had it that a storage daemon
caused that to happen.
The Seori Island disappearance.
Uh, whoops, I'm gonna have to hang up now.
[laughs awkwardly]
Ms. Ichinose, aren't you are
in charge of the American continents?
Were you able to identify the cause of
the stampede that happened the other day?
[Ms. Ichinose] Well, our whole team
is collecting data on it now,
so I'm hoping
to give you a report very soon.
[gasps] Wow!
[Kento chuckles]
Mr. Kokonoe, Kyoto's coming into view.
Yes, I see.
What are you reading, sir?
MOBY-DICK
[Kokonoe] A novel.
[man] Don't you get carsick?
[Kokonoe] I'm used to this.
The book's about an obsessive old man
who's spent years chasing an enemy.
Yagi, do you see that enormous hotel
over to the left?
- That's where you'll be taking me.
- [Yagi] What?
A few hours ago, a credit card
from Kaede Houjou was used there.
Kaede Houjou?
The chairman's granddaughter?
Yep. I heard
that she's accompanying the target.
[tense music plays]
SEORI ISLAND
"Seori Island vanished."
"Two thousand islanders have disappeared."
"Among the missing people were
members of the Houjou family cartel."
SEORI ISLAND DISAPPEARANCE
HOUJOU GROUP
[Igisu] Igi-gi.
[Kaede] This woman is my mother.
MISSING;
KAORU HOUJOU
[Kaede] Eighteen years ago,
she went to Seori Island
to investigate a newly-discovered daemon.
Then one night, the island vanished.
[melancholy music plays]
[Kaede] And so did all the islanders,
and my mom.
My grandpa thought that Seori Island
had disappeared because of the daemon.
He established the Peace Organization
to conduct research on it.
That's how it started.
My grandpa still hates daemons
to this day.
[device buzzes]
[Kaede] Oh, it's so late.
- That's gotta be
- [Igisu] Igi?
Um, a yudofu shop, a yudofu shop Uh
- Oh, here it is.
- Please come in.
Oh, wow!
[sinister music plays]
A-anna.
Oh gosh, why do I suddenly feel so tired?
[Kento yawns]
[server] Pardon the interruption,
but your company has arrived.
Sorry to make you wait, Ms. Kaede.
[Anna] Anna.
[yawns]
Huh?
[sinister music continues]
- [Anna sighs]
- Wha
I'm sorry, kid.
But it's my job.
Huh?
[Kokonoe] It's like
dealing with toxic waste.
I need to carefully collect
the storage daemon.
Anna! [groans]
[Kokonoe] Good night, kid.
- Hupy, come on.
- [Hupy] Hupy.
Wait. Please
Don't take Anna!
