Episode 19: A Big Tidal Wave


Chief

		Jimsy, I'm sure.  Did you see those guys' faces?

Jimsy

		Yes.

Chief

		That sound was from the destruction of their warship.

Jimsy

		They can't use the cannons anymore.

Chief

		Not only that, they can't take away the wheat.

Mazal

		They can't take Lana either.

Shan

		Yes, but I wonder where Lana is.

Chief

		Don't worry.  She must be still on this island.

Guzu

		Shan, Miss Monsley is calling you.  Come!

Jimsy

		Why only Uncle?  How about me?

Guzu

		We don't need you!
		Hurry up!

Monsley

		So you say that you escaped and left Lana in the cabin?

Captain

		We're sorry.

Soldier

		The explosion and fire were so strong that we barely escaped.

Monsley

		Don't give excuses!
		Do you think you'll be excused after you lost Gunboat and Lana?
		You are demoted to third class citizen.
		Dismissed.

Shan

		Lana was on the ship, wasn't she?
		Is she all right?

Monsley

		Unfortunately, what we know is she was in her cabin and sank with the ship.

Shan

		I can't believe it!
		Did you stand by and do nothing?!

Monsley

		Wait, doctor.  The one who destroyed the Gun Boat was Conan.

Monsley

		So if Lana died, it is Conan's fault.
		We've got a lot of injured soldiers.  Would you take care of them?

Shan

		I refuse!

Monsley

		This is an order!  If you refuse, I'll shoot your wife.

Soldier

		Did you call me sir?!

Monsley

		Well, please go and do your work now.  I'm busy.

Guzu

		Come!

Monsley

		Duke, gather all the villagers in the public square.  
		Then go to the gulf immediately where the Barracuda is beached.

Soldier

		We'll leave for the Windmill village now!

Monsley

		It's an important mission.
		Commandeer all of the tools and materials which are necessary to repair the Barracuda.

Soldier

		Yes sir!
		It's amazing the commander is not discouraged at all even though she's lost Gunboat.

Monsley

		Call Orlo!

Orlo

		Hey, when you gonna execute the hostages?  Otherwise the villagers will hold us in contempt.

Monsley

		But aren't you afraid of Conan's harpoon?

Orlo

		Don't say that!
		I'll shoot and make him like a honeycomb next time!

Monsley

		Good.  I expect you to catch Conan with your bare hands.
		Guzu!

Guzu

		Yes, I'm coming.

Monsley

		Have you checked the amount of ammo remaining?

Guzu

		Yes.  Almost all of the ammo was still on Gunboat.

Monsley

		Well, we will be out of ammo after one more battle.

Guzu

		Yes, I gave an order to save ammo but. . .

Monsley

		This is genuine tea, isn't it?
		It's been twenty years.

Guzu

		Sub-leader.  What will we do?
		We lost the ship and Lana, and we have no ammo too.
		Will we be stuck on this island?

Monsley

		We can repair the Barracuda to go back. . .

Monsley

		and if Lana has died, we'll take all the villagers as hostages.
		How many bullets do you think we will need to kill the hostages?
		After we get solar energy, the loss of Gunboat is nothing.
		We're occupying the village.  Do not forget it.

Guzu

		Yes sir.  I understand and feel better.

Monsley

		Then go.

Guzu

		Yes sir!

Monsley

		It's a dog!
		It's amazing!  A dog still survives!
		Muku, Muku.
		Come here, Muku.
		Muku.
		Muku. . .
		Muku!  Muku, Muku!
		No, don't go that way.

Mother

		Monsley-dear, we're leaving.

Monsley

		Wait, I can't catch Muku.
		No, don't!
		Muku. . .
		I got you!
		The ocean is coming. . .
		Muku, Muku, what's wrong, Muku?
		Wak:} Yes, and we will take the first move.
		We must hurry.

Conan

		Yes.

Gull

		This time I used some stuff from Dr. Shan's chemicals.
		So, such a small ship will be destroyed completely!

Dyce

		What?  What's the noise?
		I've been scared since my fortune has begun to decline.
		What is that?
		All the villagers are at the inlet.
		It's no good.  They're coming.
		My soup.
		No, my last food.
		What?  It's so shallow now.
		The tide is going out.

Conan

		Uncle, they're already here.

Gull

		Yes, we have to hurry.

Dyce

		Alas, I'm the most unfortunate man in the world.

Dyce

		I lost my ship, food, and I have no place to go.
		A pork cutlet!
		Come piglet. . .
		I won't eat you, so come.
		Well, nice pork cutlet.
		I won't beat you with a club.
		I'll just hit you.

Lana

		Captain sir.

Dyce

		Lana-dear.
		Oh, it's an excellent place to hide yourself.
		And what is this strange vehicle?

Lana

		My grandfather used to use it.

Dyce

		Oh, Dr. Lao was. . .
		He is a great person.
		And where is Conan?

Lana

		Conan is scouting the village.

Dyce

		I see.
		So, we're alone here now.
		Well, I'm so hungry so. . .

Lana

		If you like fish you can have some.
		This place is Uncle Gull's fish preserve.

Dyce

		I see.

Dyce

		There's plenty of them.
		Those fish are crazy!
		Lana-dear, where are you going?
		W--wait!
		Hey, what's wrong with you so suddenly?

Lana

		Tikki's not home.

Dyce

		Tikki?  The bird?
		Well, yes.  It is so quiet.
		There're no waves even.

Lana

		There was the same situation before.
		When I was at the salvage ship of Industria.

Dongoroth

		Here we go.

Gull

		This ship is heavily guarded.  We have to get inside to place the bomb.

Conan

		Uncle, isn't that strange?
0:16} I don't care!  I hate your nerve.

Orlo

		Everyone spoils you because you're a child of Dr. Lao.
		But I won't treat you like that.
		Say!  Where's Conan?!

Lana

		It's going to be too late.
		Believe me.

Orlo

		"Believe me"?

Lana

		Orlo, why did you become such a rotten person?

Orlo

		Shut up!
		Well baby, let's talk.
		Don't even think of trying to escape.

Lana

		Conan.

Conan

		Lana.

Gull

		Lana?

Conan

		Lana has called to me now.

Gull

		You're mishearing.
		Conan, give me the fuse.

Dongoroth

		No water!

Soldier

		Sit down!  There!  There!
		Sit down!  Or we'll shoot!
		Sit down!
		Sit down!

Jimsy

		Uncle.

Chief

		Yeah.

Guzu

		It's too quiet.

Monsley

		Fools, continue to work.

Conan

		Uncle, is it okay?

Gull

		No good, Conan.  The fuse is wet.

Conan

		Uncle, let's go back.  It's really strange.

Gull

		What?  The ship's careened because the water is gone.

Conan

		No, not that.  Something strange is going on.
		My heart is pounding.

Lana

		Conan.
		Conan, look at the sea.

Conan

		Look at the sea?

Lana

		The sea.

Orlo

		Hey you, damn it, answer me!

Lana

		Conan, look at the sea.

Orlo

		You, are you fooling me?
		Okay, this is your last chance, if you won't answer, I'll cut your face.

Dyce

		Orlo, you bastard!
		Do--n't
		Lana-dear, Dyce will save you!
		I got her!
		Wait!

Lana

		Conan!
		Look at the sea!
		Look at the sea!

Conan

		Yes, I'm looking at the sea!

Gull

		Hey Conan, what is it?

Soldier

		Conan!

Jimsy

		It's Conan!

Conan

		Tidal wave is coming.
		Everyone run away!  Tidal wave!
		Tidal wave!
		Stop it!  You'll hurt me!
		A tidal wave is coming.
		I'm telling the truth.

Monsley

		Conan, surrender before you die.
0:22:ease.

Women

		Come on!
		Give it to us.

Guzu

		We lost.
		We surrender.

Monsley

		We lost.

Conan

		Okay, jump!
		Captain, we'll go first.

Dyce

		Okay, I'm the captain of the Barracuda, so I'll get off from the ship last.
		What a great boy. . .
