Kaleido Star (2003) s01e12 Episode Script

Everyone, Kaleido Star is about to start.
When you watch Kaleido Star, please keep your room bright, and sit as far from the TV as you can.
Well, well, well.
Do you have anybody you admire? Someone, you think, she is cool, wonderful, or someone you wish you could be like her.
To me, that is Miss Layla.
This is a chance that I may be able to appear on stage with the person I admire.
I have to get this chance by all means! I have to! I have to! Yaritai koto wa nani Sou kikareru tabi Aoi sora miageta Kotae wa only my heart Honto ni daiji na kotoba wa kantan ni wa iwanai Hikari ga yubisasu basho e to hashiridasu yo Dakishimetai mono nara nakitai hodo mune ni aru Egakitsuzukete yuku kitto take it someday Shiroi kumo ga nagareru chiheisen no mukou ni Naranderu mirai wa itsumo soba ni aru kara A Hot, Amazing, New Production A Hot, Amazing, New Production A Hot, Amazing, New Production A Hot, Amazing, New Production So, it ended my first leading role.
Sora Wh-What? Iyaan Iyaan Iyaan What? Ian! Ian! Ian? Yes, lan, in the flesh! He's here! By any chance, are you talking about lan who co-starred with Miss Layla in the movie? Yes! You're not particularly his fan.
Right, Sora? Well, I'm not particularly his Then, help us! Okay, but what kind of help? I didn't know you meant this kind of help.
There he is.
There he is! Where, where? He is real! An amazing million dollar smile! America's lover.
I can't imagine anyone other than Layla playing the main role for the next movie.
After all, this is the first movie that I'm going to produce.
I've already told you formally that I'm not interested.
I know how you feel, Layla.
There it is again, the million dollar smile! She is under pressure, and puzzled over what to do.
So, Kalos, I want you to persuade her, too.
I know you understand that coming to my place is the best choice for her.
Go ahead, please persuade her.
Layla, I think you should go.
Yes, I think I should.
What! So, okay?! Bravo! Hey, it's me.
About Layla, she said okay.
Yep.
Then, good-bye.
Oh, good-bye.
Excuse me.
Sure.
Wha-? What? Uh.
Hey! Yes? When you said "go", what did you mean by that? We're supposed to go to see the stage equipment for a new production.
You're kidding? No one told me! You just invited yourself to follow.
Oh Then There is a profound reason why we're doing this.
Please stop embarrassing yourself.
Yes It's perfect.
You should come with us.
What? Me? Why me? Wait, Layla! Oh, Mr.
Ian also followed them.
Let's go, Sora.
Well I would like to go, but It's still in a trial stage.
Anyway, please take a look.
Hey, what took you so long? This is This is the equipment for ropewalking in the new production, Arabian Nights.
In the climax, you will perform action scenes on top of this.
Wow It sounds amazing.
But, after all, it's just ropewalking.
It's nothing new to you.
On the other hand, my next movie will be a little different.
It moved! By the time you perform, more complicated moves will be possible.
It sounds interesting.
I understand, Layla.
Then, I'll use a ship in my movie, too.
Oh, it's me.
Prepare a ship that I can use for my movie.
Yep.
A big one.
This is pretty tricky.
You're going to have a one-on-one fight with a bandit on top of this.
Also, when you perform before the audience, the ship will be enveloped in flames.
What?! Fire?! This is ridiculous, Layla.
I think you should stop It sounds interesting.
Fire, fire! Layla gets excited with scenes that have fire in them! Order gunpowder! Yuri, let's start practicing immediately.
It seems I'm not the one you are going to have a fight scene with.
What? Then, I wonder if they're going to audition for my opponent's role.
Well, our main sponsor Mr.
Kenneth already nominated the person, and You're not saying That's right.
The climax of Arabian Nights will be co-starred by you and Sora.
What! I'm going to co-star with Miss Layla Both you and Kenneth must be out of your minds.
Even the Little Mermaid could hardly be called a success.
But, Mr.
Kenneth says if you and Sora are going to co-star, he wouldn't mind doubling the budget.
Why Sora.
Yes! Sora.
Yes! Do you have confidence? Uh If you don't have confidence, excuse yourself from this role.
Mr.
Kenneth will understand.
Kalos, she cannot do this.
I think it's pitiful to pressure her more than what we're doing now.
Anyhow, it's a bit too much.
Let's ask the scriptwriter to rewrite the action scenes using Yuri instead of Sora.
Mr.
Kenneth will be very disappointed, but we have no choice.
I Miss Layla, I want to try it.
What? Let me do this, Miss Layla.
Please! Are you serious? I am! You're still a newcomer.
How rude! Right, Layla? I still don't have confidence, but You don't have confidence and you still want to do it? Oh, my God! Please test me.
If you're just going to give up after the test, you should resign now.
It's a nuisance if you're going to prepare yourself with half-baked attitude.
That's right.
That's right.
Let me know when you make up your mind.
Wait, Layla! Excuse me You should make up your own mind.
Ropewalking on a rolling ship that sounds tough.
Even Miss Layla fell from the rope.
Sora, have you ever done ropewalking? Well a little Hey, Naegino! You're imitating a circus again! I'm sorry.
Sora, you're weird.
What? Usually, people don't volunteer for that if that is all you did.
What? Really? If it was me, I'd definitely excuse myself.
But, you're going to do it, right? Er I wonder if it's impossible after all? I went over budget because of the gunpowder I ordered for you.
From the beginning of the movie, there's fire, fire, fire! To the end, the whole movie is fire, fire, fire! What do you think? Excited, aren't you? Why Why does it have to be Sora? Why am I so concerned about her? Why? One day, it will be her the audience comes to see.
Oh, it seems like you finally made up your mind.
Ian Layla I hope you find a wonderful leading actress.
Thank Thank What?! Then, excuse me.
It's me! Cancel the gunpowder.
You can't?! Seriously?! You need someone to talk to? I've never felt this way.
I wonder what this is It's about Sora, isn't it? She has something you don't.
What? She takes chances.
You Well, no one here at Kaleido Stage, including myself, takes chances like she does.
Of course not.
That's true.
But what Kalos wants from her is Probably Of course, I will support your ideas.
Please take me to Kaleido Stage.
As you wish.
Excuse me In the end do you think I should excuse myself from this role? I thought I told you to make up your own mind.
That's true.
Then this time, I will Wait! Miss Layla Kalos, let's have a test.
I'm going to take a test, too, whether I can co-star with her.
Then, I want you to decide.
All right.
The deadline is a week from now.
Is it okay? Y-Yes.
I look forward to seeing your performance.
My performance? I'm gonna burn! Or, it's more like I can't breathe Why I'm suffocating I'm gonna die.
Zzzz Zzzz First thing in the morning, and you still treat me terrible.
Which is more terrible?! Thanks to you, I dreamt I was burning to death! I will teach you one good thing.
What? In a story like Arabian Nights, you should say you're 'covered in flames' instead of saying 'burned to death'.
I'm sorry.
That's it.
Very good.
Look at the front.
Don't look down.
As I thought, Sora has a talent.
Yes, she does.
But she still has a long way to go to before she can co-star with Miss Layla.
Since you're getting comfortable with ropewalking, Iet's try rolling the ship a little without the bar.
What! Already?! We don't have much time left.
So, we have to keep going.
O-okay One more time! If this were a real stage, you'd be barbecued.
Barbecued? Okay, then! Hey, she's doing it! How she is doing, Ken? To tell the truth, she has a long way to go, but her maneuvers are getting bold.
I think she is getting used to using the rope.
Hm That's my girl, Sora.
Oh, Mia, Anna.
Did you finish your lessons today? Yes.
Why don't you have a short break? Thank you.
But, I want to practice a little more.
Sora! Miss Sarah.
Sora, we're going.
What? Where are we going? To overcome your weak points.
My weak points? Excuse me KATSU! The resolved mind has no cares! Thank you.
This is Taurus' star cluster, Pleiades.
And this star is Aldebaran.
Excuse me And this star is Aldebaran.
AND WE ARE lN ALDEBARAN NOW! What? Even though your body burns on this earth, you don't feel the heat! Yes, Master.
What? We're not afraid of the flame.
We're not afraid of the flame! Your weak point is your fear of being barbequed.
What? You overcame that fear, Sora.
If you're not afraid of falling into the flame, you should be able to move more boldly.
Yes Thank you very much.
I wonder if I'm misunderstanding something.
Oh, no.
Not at all.
Really? Oh, no.
Not at all.
Really? Really? Yes! Yes! Good.
Then, good luck.
Yes! It's almost time to switch with Miss Layla.
Okay.
You're getting better, don't you think? You're getting quite stable.
Really? Thank you, Ken.
What's wrong? You're not doing well? I started getting ideas how to do it right.
Then, it's good.
Yes.
But even if I manage to be able to do ropewalking, I'm not sure if I can pass the test.
I look forward to seeing your performance.
If you can do this much in this short time Don't you think Miss Layla will acknowledge your performance? Yes.
But I think something is missing Hm? Come on! What's wrong? My locker won't open! Sora! Who'd do something like this? Didn't you do it yourself? If you get hurt, you can, like, get out of taking Miss Layla's test.
So, you two did it.
You're so mean! Diabolo Diabolo! What's wrong with that girl? She's like, happy.
My performance Pushing yourself too hard will not produce a good result.
Why don't you have a break? Take a bath Oh, sorry.
When you worry, you should hasten to take a bath Oh, sorry.
Take a bath Sora! Hey, stop! What?! Fool, where are you? Here! What?! Fool, where are you? Here! Your jump is too high! Hey Ouch Look closely at your diabolo! Good! Calm down! It's time to switch.
Oh yes.
Finally.
Tomorrow is the day.
I'm looking forward to it.
Yes.
Tomorrow My time for practice is over Ken, thank you.
Tomorrow, I will do my best.
Don't you want to practice a little more? Of course.
But I Come with me.
What? Yo! I've been waiting for you guys.
Mr.
Policeman.
Hm? Excuse me, but, aren't you the doctor who took care of my father? Yes.
I'm Kate.
It's nice to meet you.
Are you dating? Well It's nothing like that.
We're just childhood friends.
What do you mean when you said you've been waiting? When I consulted with Mr.
Policeman, he told me that Kate knows someone who works at Marine Park.
What? All my family members are fans of your Little Mermaid.
Oh Thank you! Wow, this is a real one! How is it, Ken? It's perfect.
Are you okay? Okay, okay.
Sorry, but it's almost time, I have to.
No, not at all.
Thank you very much.
Well, if you managed to do this much in one week, I think you did enough.
It's true.
I still think your last jump is too high.
You have to control yourself a little But, of course, that's just like Sora.
Certainly, it makes me nervous.
If you're not afraid of falling into the flame, you should be able to move more boldly.
Sora? Not afraid of falling? It may be okay to fall What? Wonderful.
You're amazing, Layla! Then, next is Sora.
Yes.
Then, the next will be the finish! Sink or swim.
I have to give it a try.
I have to! I have to! I have to! It's high! That is too high.
She will be bounced by the rope.
What? Wow What? Wow You're pretty good, Sora! You did better than I thought.
So, Layla, what do you think? Can't you acknowledge this kind of performance? Not at all, Mr.
Kenneth.
I'm looking forward to find out what kind of stage Sora and I can do.
Miss Layla Miss Layla It's true.
You have something I don't possess.
What? But, if you're going to appear on stage with me, I expect you to prepare for it accordingly.
Yes! Then, I look forward to working with you.
I look forward to working with you as well.
