Episode 1 Chapter 11 Parum (script)

Holtes City: Central District

(PPT Caseal)

• PPT Caseal: Hey, you know the CAST that's the same model as me?
• Ethan: Well, yes.
• PPT Caseal: What kind of condition is she in?
• Ethan: What do you mean, condition?
• PPT Caseal: Well, there are various problems that can plague a CAST...
• Ethan: Oh, like ICS?
• PPT Caseal: Does that CAST have ICS!?
• Ethan: I'm not sure. She might.
• PPT Caseal: You're scaring me!

(Again)

• PPT Caseal: It looks like I might have ICS in my lineage...
• Ethan: Yeah, I sort of get that vibe...
• PPT Caseal: Hey, keep your "vibes" to yourself, human!
• Ethan: I'm sorry.

(Green Cast)

• Green Cast: Hm... The confinement systems need to be activated at the unification point, do they? Relying on something left behind by an ancient civilization... That sounds like a bad idea to me!

(Again)

• Green Cast: Are you really saying... that the ancient civilization was that much more scientifically advanced than we are?

(Blue Caseal)

• Blue Caseal: The Alliance Military is cooperating fully in the battle to protect the three towers. Just because the GUARDIANS found a countermeasure for the SEED, don't get so full of yourselves! The Alliance Military is going out of its way to work with you. You guys better put everything you've got into this fight!

(Again)

• Blue Caseal: You got that? Fight with everything you've got!

(Yellow Cast)

• Yellow Cast: Now is the moment of truth. Good luck!

(Again)

• Yellow Cast: What's wrong? Shouldn't you be going to Moatoob?

(AMF Cast)

• AMF Cast: You Guardians sure do have a lot of free time... On the other hand, you'll always find the Alliance Military hard at work. I haven't had a break in three months!
• Ethan: Yeah, it's been about the same for me.
• AMF Cast: Yeah, but you get to sleep, right? I've gone a good three months without a wink of sleep!
• Ethan: Well, that's how you're built, right?
• AMF Cast: It's why humans are inferior to CASTs.

(Again)

• AMF Cast: Go some place where people don't care if you lounge around on the job.
• Ethan: I'm not lounging anywhere!

Holtes City: West District

(Speal Fonce)

• Ethan: Hello, Speal.
• Speal: Oh hi, Ethan... What do you want?
• Ethan: Wow, even you seem pretty glum today!
• Speal: No, it's just... Everyone in the Alliance Military has been so down lately. I guess it's infectious.
• Ethan: Those guys never do anything for themselves... They just work and work until their cogs wear out!
• Speal: What a horrible thing to say to a CAST!
• Ethan: Sorry.

(Again)

• Ethan: The Alliance Military seems to be having some problems.
• Speal: Yes. If only both sides could understand the other better...

(Yokus Melton)

• Yokus: What's wrong, Ethan?
• Ethan: What? I thought you didn't want me to talk to you!
• Yokus: It's all right. I thought about it and realized I've been kind of mean to you.
• Ethan: Well, you haven't exactly been a ray of sunshine...

(Again)

• Yokus: So now what? Do you wanna go hang out somewhere?
• Ethan: I don't really have time for that.

(AMF Guard)

• AMF Guard: The GUARDIANS are going to take up the rear guard as the Alliance Military defends the confinement system, right? You don't have time to waste wandering around here! This is why non-CASTs are no good...

(Again)

• AMF Guard: Yeah, you heard me!

(Mikaris Geid)

• Ethan: Mikaris, have you made a decision?
• Mikaris: Oh Ethan... I guess your idea was a pretty good one. But it's really up to Geece and his son. Whether they'll take me in or not...
• Ethan: Do you want me to go see if I can find out?
• Mikaris: ...Could you?
• Ethan: ...I'll try.

(Again)

• Mikaris: I really wish it were a baby, though.
• Ethan: Maybe that can be the next step...

G.R.M. Shop

(Stank Geece)

• Stank: I'd better tighten up the ranks before we get shown up by you guys!
• Ethan: Hehe. Well, we'll see.

(Madris Carn)

• Ethan: Hi Madris!
• Madris: Hey, Ethan... I'm getting tired of all this paperwork. I'm jealous of you guys... I want to fight!
• Ethan: Well come back to the GUARDIANS then!
• Madris: Is that my only option? I wonder...

(Again)

• Madris: The Alliance Military won't even make me a backup soldier since I'm not a CAST.
• Ethan: The CAST supremacy is everywhere, isn't it?

Parts Shop

(Prafo Kaluen)

• Ethan: Hey, Prafo!
• Prafo: ...
• Ethan: Prafo?
• Prafo: Do you have a mom and dad?
• Ethan: They both died... I wish I had a dad like yours, Prafo.
• Prafo: Oh... But I want a mom, too!
• Ethan: ...

(Again)

• Ethan: See you later...

Holtes City: East District

(Rol Medoc)

• Ethan: Hey, Rol. How are you?
• Rol: Okay.
• Ethan: Hey! We're making some progress!
• Rol: Don't mock me.

(Again)

• Ethan: Try to make friends with your granddad, all right?
• Rol: Maybe...

(Quiro Medoc)

• Ethan: Hello, Mr. Medoc. How are you feeling today?
• Mr. Medoc: Oh, it's you... I think you were right. It's not so bad to be alive...
• Ethan: Did something happen?
• Mr. Medoc: My granddaughter has been acting a lot sweeter to me. I think she's finally growing out of her rebellious phase!
• Ethan: That's great, Mr. Medoc.

(Again)

• Mr. Medoc: I realized... All I've got is my granddaughter.
• Ethan: Yes, so you should take care of each other.

Holtes City: GUARDIANS Branch

(Human Woman)

• Human Woman: It looks like the Endrum Collective was dissolved... but their true intentions remain a mystery. The Alliance Military plans on launching an investigation into what was really going on, don't they?

(Again)

• Human Woman: Are you still worried about Magashi? His organization has been dissolved, you know. Even someone like Magashi couldn't do anything now, could they?

(Black Cast)

• Black Cast: The unification point is fast approaching. The fate of the Gurhal System hangs in the balance. We've got to fight it out to the end!

(Again)

• Black Cast: In this battle, we've got to fight to win!

(Human Male)

• Human Male: Ethan, I have to ask you... How do you feel about Karen? The thing is, Karen and I both joined the GUARDIANS at the same time. Ever since I met her at school, I always felt she had an element of intrigue to her. But she always pushed herself to become stronger, and I admired that a lot! To her, I'm probably just another Guardian, but... Um... What am I going on about? Just forget it!

(Again)

• Human Male: It's all right... Just forget everything I said!
