Chrono Crusade (2003) s01e12 Episode Script

Holy Night

Holy Night
Fear not, Mary.
Thou shalt conceive in thy womb,
and bring forth a son,
and shalt call his name Jesus.
Az? Your lines, your lines.
How shall this be, since I
Okay, stop!
Azmaria, I know you're nervous,
but when you do that, it seems like
you're actually shouting angrily.
I'm sorry.
One more time, from Gabriel's part.
What? Let's take a break.
What are you saying?!
We're not stopping until we can get it right!
You guys in the choir are going to join in too.
Okay, then
Well
What now?!
I feel the same way.
We don't have the time to rest!
All right, then! Go!
Excuse me!
I'd like to borrow Azmaria.
Do what you want!
The Nativity play is the highlight
of the Christmas service, after all.
Do your best!
But I don't know if I'll be able to meet
everyone's expectations or not.
Knowing you, it'll be fine, Azmaria.
It would appear that the pictures
were taken in San Francisco.
San Francisco?
This month alone, we have lost contact
with three investigators.
All of them were members of the Order
who were looking into Aion's situation.
There have been repeated occurrences
of abductions and murders,
and drawing conclusions from
the circumstances and evidence,
we believe that the devils have something to do
with all of their disappearances.
Something is about to start on the west coast.
Either that, or it's already started.
Sister Kate, we
Calm down, Sister Rosette.
After all, that's the reason
you became a Militia, right?
Then it's all right for us to leave here
and look for Joshua?
This will lead us to Aion too!
This time we won't let him get away,
no matter what!
We'll be sure to bring back Joshua!
I'll help too.
Right.
Thanks.
There are three dresses left, but will they fit?
It's all right, we'll put them in using our guts!
And besides, Chrono's the one
who'll be carrying it.
What? I hadn't heard that!
Are you planning on making a helpless
young girl carry such a heavy bag?
It's not like we're going on vacation, Rosette!
Rosette!
So you really are leaving here.
What? Seriously? Are you serious?
We'll miss you,
but this IS what you've been hoping for
this whole time, Rosette.
What? Is that so?!
I understand your desire to hurry, Rosette,
but won't you at least stay until Christmas?
I understand. We'll do that.
Let's have a fun Christmas, okay?
Yes, let's.
It looks like this year's Christmas
is going to be memorable.
I'm doing it?
Of course you are!
Why do you always make me do it?
A feast, a feast!
Wow!
I'm home.
Well
I bought the wine and the bread for tomorrow.
Put it in the kitchen. Your dinner is in there too.
Yes, Ma'am.
Hey, how long do we have to put her up here?
When she sings, lots of birds gather around!
It's creepy, you know?
You don't know any Christmas carols?
What? Not even one?
I'm sorry.
It's nothing to apologize for!
We have plenty of time.
All you have to do is learn them from here on.
Christmas is when we make our money.
And because you're with us this year, Az,
it looks like things are going to be more lively.
Jumping the gun, aren't you?
Isn't this wonderful, Az?
It was a short period of time, but be well, okay?
Even after you become a high-class lady,
come and see us once in a while, okay?
Azmaria! Azmaria!
Azmaria!
That's no good!
If you look so depressed, no one will come by.
Look, with a PR smile, like this! Like this, Az!
You don't have to imitate her.
Please give donations so that the less fortunate
can have a happy Christmas!
Oh, the gentleman over there, wait!
Thank you very much.
Everyone! May this kind-hearted
gentleman be blessed!
This isn't street theater, you know.
You're going a little too far!
If we don't go at least this far,
we won't collect anything.
Oh, the lady over there!
Please give us a Christmas donation!
Oh, it's you again?
Well, what are YOU doing here?
Please be sure to shop here next year as well,
Lady Harvenheit.
Thank you. Have a good year.
Don't tell me, you're a rich girl?
Lady Satella is the current head
of the Harvenheit Art Company.
No way!
Oh, yes, a donation, right?
Merry Christmas.
Are you sending that many presents?
Well, yes. I have so many different associates.
It's like you're Santa Claus!
Don't tell me that you
Surely at your age, you don't
still believe in Santa Claus?
No! That is
Santa Claus never visited me to begin with.
Az, don't tell me that you've never gotten
a present up until now, not even once?
But I was a bad girl, so that might be
why he never came.
You mustn't say things like that.
You most certainly are not a bad girl.
The reckless Sister and the tiny devil over there
are a different story, though.
What did you say?!
What, do you have a problem, reckless Sister?
Cut that out! Not out here!
That's right.
This year, I also have people to give presents to!
A present? Well
It really does depend on the person
you're giving it to.
Me, me! I want some new boots
and a silk handkerchief!
Don't be so loud! It's after
bedtime curfew, after all!
And no one said they were
getting you anything, Mary!
Boo
Are you giving it to Rosette?
Yes, and to Chrono as well.
Giving what you want yourself,
that's the greatest trick for choosing a present!
It might be better to go out and window shop
rather than worry about this and that.
That's right, after all, you might
unexpectedly find something good.
I understand!
It would be nice if I found something good.
That's right, I'm going shopping tomorrow to get
materials for the costumes in the play,
so maybe I'll go looking for a bit.
What do you think?
Wouldn't it be better to make it a bit bigger?
You've got to make it so that people know
that you're a reindeer in one glance, like this!
But they'd come off too easily if they were big.
If your horns weren't broken,
then we'd just attach those to them.
I wonder if it's all right for a devil
to celebrate Christmas in the first place?
It's all right!
Sad people,
and people in pain,
adults and children
Everyone, no matter who they are,
can become happy.
That is the magic of Christmas.
It was a good thing that we didn't
leave here in a hurry.
For Azmaria's sake, we have to let her have
a Christmas that will remain in her heart.
No, no, it's my eyes that are having a memory
burned into them, not my heart.
Please let the next year be a good one too.
What do you think you're doing,
taking advantage of the confusion,
you perverted old man?!
Has something caught your fancy?
Here, take a look.
It's beautiful.
Would it be strange to give this
as a Christmas present?
Who are you giving it to?
Someone who's like an older sister to me.
Something like this would make a girl happy.
I'm sorry, but I don't have any money right now.
Don't worry about it. Take it with you.
Oh, no, I can't just take it!
I'll get the money on Christmas Eve, so
In that case, I'll hold on to it until then.
Be sure to come for it!
I will! Absolutely!
The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee,
and the power of the Highest
shall overshadow thee.
For with God, nothing shall be impossible.
My soul doth magnify the Lord,
and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior.
You were really great!
Good work!
You really did well, Azmaria.
Thank you very much.
I did say that I would hold it for you, right?
But I was worried.
Here you are.
Excuse me! Did you sell the snow globe
that was in the front window?
Yes, I'm sorry.
I see, so it's been sold.
If you had said something sooner,
I could have gotten the same one in for you.
Now I've done it.
And I promised my girlfriend too.
I'm sorry, please excuse me.
You shouldn't worry about it.
But
Wait! Please wait!
With this, I can give my girlfriend
the greatest Christmas present.
Thank you very much!
I wish you happiness.
Is it really all right?
Yes, it was just something
I had picked out by myself.
So I hadn't made a promise.
Then go and choose something in its place.
I'll give you a huge discount on it.
Merry Christmas!
Rosette, Chrono
Why don't you get on?
Those presents were gathered and prepared
by everyone at the Order.
It's a yearly custom.
We deliver everyone's gathered
feelings as presents.
That's our job on Christmas.
Delivering feelings
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
Everyone's having fun.
It IS Christmas, after all.
Merry Christmas!
Have you all been good children?
We have!
So hurry up and give us our presents!
Here you are, Merry Christmas.
I really wanted this!
So Azmaria had prepared presents for us.
Thank you so much for this!
Me too, thank you, Azmaria.
Christmas really was enjoyable!
What are you talking about?
The main event is still to come!
Merry Christmas, Azmaria!
Now, now, don't sit there in a daze.
Hurry up, over here.
Tada!
For you, a young girl who, up until today,
has never had the blessings of Christmas,
tonight, all of us present you with this party.
We will be praying for your future happiness.
And now, my newest invention!
An electric Christmas tree!
Merry Christmas, Azmaria.
What do you think? This is a real Christmas.
I I
What's wrong?!
I'm sorry. I'm so very happy.
It's more than I deserve.
I have a power other people don't,
and people always hated that.
I'm not the kind of person that's
worthy of something like this.
Something so wonderful
Azmaria
Everyone said they wanted to do
something for you, Azmaria.
And then, before we knew it,
it turned into a big party!
It's because you're a good person!
That's not something for you to say,
you perverted old man.
Everyone, thank you so much!
Thank you very much!
This idol of a deity is a charm against evil
that is known of in Africa.
It seems like you're easily
targeted by evil people,
so use it for your own protection.
Satella Harvenheit.
That woman!
It's incredibly scary.
Just hurry up and chuck it.
It feels like I'm going to be cursed.
Chrono, you can be cursed too?
It might have been a while since
Azmaria's smiled like that.
Yeah.
It would be nice to do this next year,
with Joshua.
Yeah.
Merry Christmas, Chrono.
Then from me too.
Thank you, Chrono.
Big sister, listen!
They said that Rizel is going to bring
my big sister here from New York!
That's wonderful, Lord Joshua.
When my big sister gets here,
I'll introduce her to you, big sister.
What? My big sister is coming,
but my big sister is here.
There are two big sisters?
Please calm down.
I see! Big sister, you've divided!
Next episode, "Older Sister"
I wonder if Chrono has multiplied too?
