Ranma Saotome of Class 1, Section F is removing Daisuke's-- See here--! Send help! I'm sorry! Sorry!!! Ranma Saotome! You won't get away this time! So? Doing these things give me no pleasure! The youth of Furinkan bear the promise of Japan's future.
I only want them to be loving, just and sincere! So I carry on, weeping on the inside! Why can't you understand that??! Why can't you understand that the Principal's only usin' you to torture the rest of us??! You refuse to obey--??! Get lost, jerk! You'll pay! What the heck ARE ya??!

I'm only trying to run a business.
I can't disobey the Acting Principal.
Idiot!! What business runs lavatories??! Blast Kuno, that no good--! He keeps pickin' on me! Are you gonna get him, Ranma-honey? Naturally! But then you'll be playing right into Kuno's hands.
What'm I supposed to do, anyway? I've got a great idea.
Should we allow this? The reactionary forces will only grow stronger unless we arise now.
We must act! I shall gather more comrades.
We'll show that wretched Acting Principal! I am Acting Principal of Furinkan High School, Tatewaki Kuno.
Get them! - No, not this! - Justice will prevail! Kuno? I've got some great information.
This makes the tenth report.
Tell me.
Pay me first.
This spot on the map is where girls' photos are pasted.
What? Let's go, men! What's this??! Kendo Club Our own clubhouse.
Why do I havta do this??! Come on! I came up with the idea.
You make it work.
Right, Ranma-honey.
Girls should be tough when the chips are down.
I'm a GUY! Ranma! Did you hear something? (Quiet!) Tricked! But a wrong must be righted.
Forgive me, pigtailed girl! Akane Tendo! Someday we'll talk together again without shame! Farewell! Kuno!! Pigtailed girl--! Kuno! Won't you come on a date with me??! That idiot, Ranma! Screwing up when things were going so well--! A date??! Let's go! Now! At once! It seems to be working! Furinkan High School Rules, Article 2: Daily Conduct, Section 1, male- female fraternization forbidden! That's right.
I'm the Acting Principal.
What's the matter, Kuno? Hurry.
Let's go on a date.
Oo.
Can't wait.
Forgive me, pigtailed girl.
History is calling! HOT! Let my burning embrace satisfy you for now! Leggo--! No hard feelings, okay? I've got a business to run, too.
You're that wretch Ranma Saotome! Halt!! - Whoa! - Thank you, Nabiki.
By the way, whose side are you on? Me? The side of money, natch.
We almost had him, too.
Well, I ain't gonna do it no more! Your older sister's the problem.
Nabiki can be a handful, too.
Do somethin' about that pest, Gosunkugi, too.
All we have to do is bring those two over to our side.
It's not that simple! Leave it to me.
There're always two ways to win a person over.
Two ways? Ucchan's My treat today.
Eat your fill.
Bribery? I get it.
This is one way.
So the second way is to turn on the charm? Never! I would never be swayed by that.
Please, Gosunkugi.
Help us.
Yes! Just leave it to me! That Acting Principal is nothing! Divine retribution! "Kuno" He won't be eating this, will he? Do you want to know something useful? Useful? Yes.
Tomorrow morning during morning assembly the Principal comes back.
Nabiki! I guess bribery worked, after all.
They paid me a lot, but this is a good time to pull out.
I see.
Now, when the time is right? You got it.
They don't even know I'm up here.
Won't the Acting Principal get in trouble if there's a commotion during morning assembly? And I'm just the guy to do it! Idiot.
It won't be Kuno's fault if you cause it.
Then who do you think should do it? This situation calls for a secret weapon.
Secret weapon? Secret weapon? What's that? I can't tell you yet.
This is terrible.
I must inform Master Kuno at once! Just wait and you'll see.
Boys' Lavatory Is this "secret weapon" really comin'? Probably.
Now we shall commence Monday morning assembly.
I am the "Blue Thunder" of Furinkan High School Tatewaki Kuno, age 17.
As Acting Principal, I say to you, fellow classmates-- For one week-- It won't be long now.
Your daily conduct was-- Here they come! - Meyowwr! Where's my bride??! - Where's the underwear inspection??! Those voices--? - My bride! - Bras! Panties! My statue in da ground! Oh, oh, my god!! My school! Wha--??! Wretches! You disrupted our sanctified morning assembly! - Bride! - Underwear inspection! Bras!! Wretches! I avenge Master Kuno--! Isn't this overdoing it a bit, Akane? Kind of.
N-Nabiki sure came up with a heck of an idea! You're right.
I did overdo it.
So here's the deal, Akane.
We'll have to get Ranma to help with this.
You're right.
It's probably the only way to quiet things down.
You don't mean--??! This is the only way, Ranma-honey.
Oh! It's Ranma! Meeyowrr bride!! Ranma! Blast you monsters! You're not getting away! - Come back! - Ranma! Your bra--! Stop right there, monsters! Oh, my god! Tacchi, you da Acting Principal.
But you bring in funny kine monster cat and old man--! Halt! Halt! Halt! You even let dem chase girls an' play tag in front of da students! - Bride! - Panties! Halt! Oh, dis bery dangerous! Go away! - Bride! - Bra! Halt! They've gone.
Will Ranma-honey be all right? Maybe I should be nicer to him if he comes back alive.
That might be a good idea.
You fired from Acting-Principal job!
Acting Principal? Yes, yes! I goin' abroad on da kine inspection tour fo' one week.
