Original subtitles

First of all, there's something I'd like to say to you.

Why thank you. Hearing you give me such

a compliment lets me know that recreating

it from your memories was quite worthwhile.

Now, what is this place anyway? Well,

you qualify to enter the graveyard.

that's all there is to it.

Remember when I said, first you need to face your own past?

I think it's slowly starting to come back.

So what exactly did you do to me?

I had completely forgotten about you already.

It was much quicker to meddle with your memories.

Then. It would have been to trust

that you could ever keep an important secret.

And did I pass your weird little trial or what?

Having seen every moment of it, I'd have to say you did.

I thought the result that you achieved was more than suitable.

Seen every moment. Wait. Did you? I'm so.

Sorry. When you said that, even I began tearing

up a bit. I have to be honest.

Shut up and keep that to yourself.

It's embarrassing. All right. Anyway, you're saying this world is actually.

Indeed everything around you is a completely

fabricated world that I recreated with utmost

faithfulness to your memories. Everything and everybody, your parents.

To see you took those images from my mind.

But some of that was stuff even I didn't know.

Are you absolutely positive that what you're saying is true?

Did you never once entertain the thought

that something might be a mess?

Now, your father was possibly different in

some way from what you pictured.

Did you really think you could hide

the secrets deep in your heart?

The ones you thought no one knew about?

Like the desire to ease the burden you carry.

The selfish wish that they'd both still

love you even if they knew the truth.

Can you say for certain that those conversations

with your imaginary parents weren't really for you?

Cause anything more would be far too idealistic now,

wouldn't it? Not to mention convenience.

Don't make fun of my parents. Echidna.

What? I gave all of my answers during those conversations.

Both my mom and dad accepted them too.

You heard what they said to me, right?

They wanted me to take care of myself

and to give it my all their

voices, their smiles and everything else.

They completely shattered what I had imagined.

My parents are larger than life and couldn't

even begin to fit into a puny

imagination like mine. So don't sell them short.

I told them everything I wanted to say,

and I'm not going to let anything you say sidetrack me.

Hmm. This trial is over in the truest sense now.

I look forward to seeing how you handle the next question.

Wait a minute. What does that mean? There's more than one trial.

There are three graveyard trials in total,

and you must pass each of them to set the sanctuary free.

I'm so glad I finally got to tell

you this surprising bit of news, isn't it?

Seeing you look so stunned makes my heart skip a beat.

It's already starting to disappear. If you go outside,

you'll find yourself back in the graveyard where you started.

Hey, echidna. What is it? Are you hoping

I'll let you hit me? I'll admit I'd want to.

And you do have the right. But remember,

I'm a girl. My face is. Thank you.

Even if it was all fabricated and not real,

I said some things to my parents

I thought I'd never get to say.

And I realized there's no way I'd

have gotten that chance without you.

So thanks. I really appreciate it.

You're an incredibly intriguing human, you know that?

I can't quite comprehend you, and it frightens me.

I consider it an honour to know I can scare a witch.

Oh, yeah. From that big build up an explanation.

It sounded like you really want me

to go through the next trial.

But I can't grant that wish for you.

What are you saying, then? Well, I'm

saying that I'm not the one who's

going to pass them and free the sanctuary.

Someone else will be taking care of that for you.

Is that so truly fascinating?

Wait, where am I?

Oh, yeah. That's right. I went through the trial.

Amelia. Hey.

Are you okay? Come on.

Hang in there. Amelia, please say something.

Supergirl. Hold on. Right, I went in.

Undergo the trial, and then I.

Ha ha ha ha! Hey. What's wrong?

I I it wasn't me. It wasn't me.

I, I kept telling you over and over.

It wasn't me and you still. Now

just calm down. Amelia, look at me.

Stop it! No, don't look at me like that.

Just stop it. Stop it! It wasn't me.

It's okay. You're safe now, and I

won't let anything happen to you.

I'm not going anywhere. It's all right.

She finally calmed down. Seems like she's resting peacefully now.

The aroma hypnosis will prevent any nightmares.

Thank you. I'm sorry for the trouble.

Well, I didn't do it for you.

Still, the sanctuary is even farther from being set free now.

Um. May I say something? Huh? What's up? Otto?

There might be a way to get

everyone outside the barrier without taking the

trial and freeing the sanctuary. Huh?

What are you talking about? Now? That's impossible.

There's no way in hell. Just hear me.

Out, okay? I know that anyone with mixed

blood who touches the barrier loses consciousness.

I saw it with my own eyes.

So then. Because it's something that's impossible to avoid.

Why don't those of us who aren't

affected by the barrier carry the other

ones through it while they're unconscious?

Yeah, that's not bad. If the unaffected could get everyone together.

An amusing idea, but one you would be better off not trying.

As for my thoughts on the matter,

I would rather not become an empty shell of a soul.

Hold on a second. You're the girl

here. Tea's ready. Tea's ready, my ass.

You almost burned my cheek off. I

didn't know what was going on.

So dramatic. What a pathetic man you are. Avoid unnecessary comments.

ROM, how about some for me too? It's course tea.

Hey. What's up? You normally talk all humble.

Like I just brewed some leaves I found.

Show your gratitude to me for that by drinking every last drop.

I heard that you had brought in more people from the outside.

Younger. My, what a noisy boy he is.

Uh. And who might you be, miss?

I am Ryuzu Bilma. It is my duty,

you might say, to represent this community,

though I am old and frail.

Old and frail, huh? So you're a lowly hag.

I figured I'd meet one at some point,

but you really fit the stereotype.

We just meet, and you call me an old woman.

Well. No matter. And you are bossou. Which makes you young, Sue.

What did you call me? So, Miss Ryuzu,

what part of my idea makes you believe it couldn't work?

What did you mean by empty shell?

Have you not heard? When someone of mixed blood touches the barrier,

it removes their consciousness, repelling their soul.

I'm still not sure I understand. Repels there.

I think I get it when a mixed

blood attempts to force their way through the barrier,

their soul separates from their body.

So even if the body makes it through,

it will be an empty shell leaving the soul behind.

Does that sum it up? Uh.huh?

You do catch on quickly. That is the gist of it, yes.

When a body without a soul exits

the barrier, it ceases to function.

For all intents and purposes, it's dead.

Gross. This tea sucks. I guess this

new batch gets a thumbs down.

What I don't get is if the qualification

for undergoing the trial is having mixed blood,

why haven't you or Garfield done it and ended all of this?

Do you just not want to? Or what?

If you are speaking only of an attempt,

it stands to reason we could, but we cannot free the sanctuary.

That is the contract that has been handed

down among those of us who have resided here for generations.

Subaru. Hey good morning Millie. Did you sleep okay? I did thanks.

Did you stay right here with me all night?

It's not like I could have dozed off in my room anyway.

Kind of hard to get any rest with Otto talking in his sleep.

I'm sorry about yesterday. I feel like

I lost my composure in the graveyard.

What? Come on, don't worry about it. More importantly.

Oh, wait, I didn't. I don't understand why I just did that.

It doesn't make sense. Are you finally

getting assertive enough to reach out for me subconsciously?

I'm sorry. It's not like that at all.

I was just confused and not thinking.

You denied it so fast and you weren't thinking. Really? I mean.

As long as you can smile. It's all right.

There's no problem. You can give the trial

another shot tonight, okay?

Again tonight.

Listen. Pursue. Huh? Despite what you likely assume,

not all of the residents are in

favor of setting the sanctuary free.

Are you serious? Why wouldn't they be?

Only a segment of the population here wants that.

And people like Garf, led by Miss Ryuzu, are the most outspoken.

There's a conservative faction that doesn't want

this place to gain its autonomy.

There are people who don't want it to be set free.

The conservatives think having minimal interaction with outsiders is the ideal scenario.

In their opinion, the sanctuary's independence would

destroy that option and cause nothing but trouble.

I get not trusting Garfield in all of this,

but they don't even trust Ryuzu. No. Or Frederica either.

She was the one

who gave Miss Amelia that glowing stone, remember?

So you think Frederica started this whole thing?

Circumstantial evidence would suggest that she almost

certainly had some plan in mind.

As it is, Miss Amelia escaped disaster

by little more than a hair's breadth.

Thanks to your noble, relatively noble sacrifice.

Give me a break, huh? I mean, look, all right.

I didn't die or anything, so I get it. But still.

Just be careful, Varisu. Remember, we're the ones

who oppose setting the sanctuary free.

what they want is to find some way to harm Miss Amelia.

You never know who might be your

true enemy. Be vigilant and stay alert.

Come on, Rahm, join us. What the hell? You're no fun.

So, uh, do you have a thing for Rahm or something?

Well, she's hot, ain't she? There's nothing

unusual about a guy being attracted to a strong

girl who knows how to handle herself.

I hope this works out better than the last time.

We don't want to short nap for a moral oak to be a whole day.

Sleep for the rest of us. So tell me, is there something you

want to do after getting out of the barrier?

Okay, that came out of nowhere. You

mean what do I want to do once I'm out, huh?

A guy who's able to come and go as he pleases

wouldn't have any idea how the old hag and I feel.

In that case, what about Frederica? Huh?

What are her thoughts about people being freed from the sanctuary?

Didn't she tell you a damn thing about what's going on here?

She only said she couldn't explain it

to me in any real detail. All she told me about you was

your name. Because of some oath.

Some oath? My ass. Please talk about a handy excuse.

Sounds just like your damn master.

So you and Frederica aren't exactly what

you'd call close, I take it.

If you're asking if we get along, the answer is nope.

Not at all. Yeah. So, anyway, when

you were in the graveyard yesterday.

Amelia.

I'm sorry, I again, I.

I see. That's quite unfortunate. Even so, just learning

that you cannot lose your right to undergo

the trial is useful to know.

Okay, then. What is it? You called

me in here without Amelia to talk about?

Call it a bit of a conspiracy.

Although I am big hearted, I'm not

so foolish that I'd invite one to

a discussion when they cannot be trusted.

Hold on. Are you saying that Amelia can't be trusted?

What in the hell are you talking?

Calm yourself. Subaru. Let me explain. And whatever the case,

please continue to support Miss Amelia, as you always have.

I will whether you ask me to or not.

But I want to know what you're gonna do.

The same thing. Naturally. I plan to give

my utmost to help Miss Amelia win the royal selection.

Meaning I'll continue my involvement as a partner in crime.

Shouldn't you say we're partners and leave it at that?

You just keep contradicting yourself over and over. Oh.

And what makes you say that? Quit playing dumb.

Everyone knew the witch's cult would start

causing trouble when Amelia's participation was announced to the public.

And what the hell were you doing through it all?

You hid information about the witches cult from Amelia, didn't you?

She didn't have a clue about those monsters.

If she'd known, everything would have been different.

And if it was, then that never would have.

You should have been there from the very beginning.

If you just taken the time. Horrible

thing wouldn't have happened if you had been trying to protect everybody.

But it wasn't necessary as you managed

to fulfill that role in my absence

as a knight, your performance was commendable.

You you need to calm down. Tharasu.

Don't tell me that you're okay with all this.

You were left behind at the mansion

like some kind of sacrificial pawn.

Whether or not that's true, I condone everything Master Roswell did.

It doesn't matter how I was treated.

Even if I was cast aside, that wouldn't change how I feel.

I can't believe what I'm hearing. And you're

fine with Ren being sacrificed for a stupid reason. Like.

You say that as if I'm supposed

to know who you're talking about.

But the name of an absolute stranger means nothing to me.

So you want to know why I concealed

information that I should have disclosed to Miss Amelia,

and why I wasn't present and ready

to defend the mansion when the witch's

cult was preparing their insidious attack.

There's but one answer to these questions.

To completely guarantee that I wouldn't have

to confront the witch's cult myself.

I personally made sure all these events would happen.

If I had solved the problem myself, it would present a dilemma.

There would be no way for you

or Miss Amelia to claim any credit for their defeat.

See, it had a rather tremendous effect.

No, just take the attitudes of the villagers of Harlem.

Their feelings toward Miss Amelia are drastically

different than they were before the onslaught.

She's no longer seen as a relative of the witch.

Instead, she's viewed favorably as one who contributed

to saving their lives. Oh, shit.

Do you even have the slightest clue about what you're saying?

That's only how it looks in hindsight.

Do you know how many people died

because you weren't there and didn't tell anyone anything? I do offer.

My condolences for all those on our side who were lost.

Or would you rather hear me apologize

instead of making that? No, no.

No, that's not it. That's not what I want.

If I was still a total waste, I couldn't accomplish anything.

What would you have done? Answer me if none

of the villagers or Amelia could have been saved.

I had faith in you, and it paid off.

I felt sure you'd do anything for Miss Amelia.

Give your best effort in forming an alliance with Miss Khrushchev.

Put your very life on the line

to stop the witches cult's attack.

And complete all of these tasks with excellence.

What the hell do you know about me?

When I last saw you, I was nothing.

An absolute pile of trash. I only

got a little less useless because of all

the things that happened after that.

And besides, no one else has any idea what happened then.

Anyway, what made you end on that note?

It would seem that tonight's conversation has reached its end.

If you tell Miss Amelia what we've discussed here.

Yes. If I could ever tell her this.

You're angry, but I can see deep

down you understand that this machinated outcome is as it should be.

And considering the royal selection for the sake of all involved,

I advise you not to create any friction.

Good. I knew you would make a

fitting partner in crime for me.

I'm sorry I failed again. Don't beat yourself up, okay?

It looks like you can try as often as you like.

So for now, it just depends on you and how you're feeling.

In other words, it's up to me. Huh?

I can tell this hasn't been easy for you,

but there's no point in freeing the sanctuary

if you're not the one to do it.

That's my opinion, anyway. So what do you say?

Do you want to try it again?

Subaru. You are such a jerk.

That came out of nowhere. When you

ask with such gentle eyes and words,

how could I possibly say no?

I'm not very smart, but even I'm aware of what's at stake.

And I'm certain that this is my duty.

Just keep believing in me. Don't spoil me.

I mean, I know I'm probably not very convincing right now, but.

That's not true. I believe in you 100%.

Thanks for that. Still, I, I realize

I'll be causing trouble for the people of Harlem.

And that's the one thing that I regret.

Oh, yeah? About those villagers. Would it be okay

if you left all that up to me? Yes. Of course.

I wouldn't start doubting you now after all this. I trust you.

Wow. I'm impressed you were able to convince Garfield. Nice job.

Took two whole days to pull it off.

But, yeah, he understands that since Amelia

is already inside the barrier setting,

the people of Arkham Village free isn't going to cause any problems.

That really surprises me, because he comes

across as the type who would never

listen to what anybody else had to say about anything.

For a traitor, you're a pretty lousy judge of character, huh?

That's a rather old fashioned good luck charm.

Petra gave it to me before we all headed out,

which was right after Frederica hired her as a new maid.

Frederica would never attempt any sort of hazing to a new recruit.

She would never be that spiteful or fiendish.

So there's no need to worry about the girl.

Well, do you have faith in Frederica or not?

I can't get a good read on you about her.

I don't know what she's planning, but still.

Frederica is Frederica, and I've never had any doubt about that.

Also, I have a message from Master Roswell.

If you're worried about having to face Frederica,

he suggests you merely turn to Miss

Beatrice for help. If she wavers. Do this.

Look her in the eye and say,

Roswell said to ask the question.

That's it. I'm not sure of the details.

Just know when Miss Beatrice hears you say

those exact words, everything will change.

That's what Master Roswell said to me.

Subaru. Hey. What's up? Mealey? Oh, sorry if I interrupted your conversation.

Not at all. So don't worry about it.

It isn't like we were talking about important

stuff anyway. Besides, you take priority.

It makes me really happy to hear that.

But I think you should let the villagers

be the priority for right now. Sure.

Subaru made the blessings of the spirits be with you.

Thanks a lot for volunteering to take us.

As far as the barrier. I really appreciate it.

Yeah, no problem man. So anyway, small fry

about the graveyard. You went through a

trial out there too, didn't you?

Look, there's no sense in hiding it. It's easy to tell.

What's the point in asking me about this, exactly.

The reason is pretty simple. If you already did it,

then that means you can go through the trial in Amelia's place.

I can't do that. It would screw

up the precedent and besides. So tell me.

Something, Subaru. Is it really even necessary to overcome your past?

I watched Amelia go through the trials

and saw how it broke her spirit. It didn't look pretty.

And every time she comes back totally

freaked out and just can't stand to see that.

Look, I saw two, okay? But I still

have faith that Amelia has what it takes to do this,

so I think she should expect.

What you want from her. Then. Thing is,

I'm not sure if she really wants

to overcome her past trial or not.

When she's shaken and crying. How do you think she feels?

I hadn't thought of that. So maybe.

She actually. Barriers close now. That means

this is about as far as I'm able to bring you.

Take this. Wait. Isn't that. Listen, I'm

not going to tell you my reasons,

but if you don't come back to this place,

we're gonna be the ones who are suffering.

Push comes to shove. Show it to Frederica.

Oh, hey, take it easy. It's okay.

Is everybody gone?

What is going on around here?

Hold on. What about REM?

When?

Dark.

You promised, didn't you, that you'd take

good care of your entrails until the two of us met again?
