SCRIPT (episode 33; version 1.0; 12/20/1999)
voice Once upon a time...
voice ...there was a princess grieving over the deaths of
her mother and father.
voice Before this princess appeared a prince traveling upon
a white horse.
voice His appearance gallant, and his smile gentle, the
prince enveloped the princess...
voice ...in the scent of roses, and wiped away her tears.
voice "Little one bearing up alone under grief,
voice please lose not thy strength and nobility when thou
growest up."
voice "As a token of this day, please retain this."
voice "Pray, shall we meet once more?"
voice "This ring should guide thee to me."
voice Was the ring from the prince meant as an engagement
ring?
voice That part was good,
voice but because of the strength of her admiration for the
prince,
voice the princess made up her mind to become a prince
herself!
voice But is that really good for her?
title The Prince who Runs in the Night
Anthy Hello?
Anthy Yes.
Anthy I was looking at the stars.
Anthy I didn't want to look at the real stars.
Anthy Have you received tonight's roses?
Utena Today was a total blast. I wonder how long it's been
since I've had this much fun?
Utena I feel like I rode all the rides I wanted to.
Utena Himemiya should've come too.
Utena I'm sure being by herself wasn't this much fun.
Utena Did I tell you that I'm an only child?
shadows I wonder I wonder, do you know what I wonder?
shadow The stars are really gorgeous tonight.
shadow If possible, we'd like all our listeners to take a
look at the stars our their windows.
shadow The beautiful Autumn constellations are twinkling.
shadow Tonight, we'll be together forever!
shadow Now then, it's time for the Pop Quiz!
shadow What is "something eternal"?
shadow That's an eternal mystery.
shadow Who's our first respondant for tonight?
shadow Let's see. His penname is "Ends of the World".
shadow He sure has a weird name.
shadow Well, let's call him!
Akio Yes.
shadow Good evening! Is this Mr. "Ends of the World"?
Akio Yes.
shadow Have you been listening to the program just now?
Akio Of course.
shadow You've got a really sexy voice.
shadow Thanks for your postcard. What sort of work do you
do, Mr. "Ends of the World."
Akio I'm an educator. Plus some minor part time work.
shadow Are educators really allowed to moonlight?
Akio Well, I've had good luck so far keeping it a secret.
shadow Thank you very much. Then, let's go straight to the
quiz.
shadows I wonder, I wonder, do you know what I wonder?
shadow Multiple choice. Which of the following three things
is eternal?
shadow 1. A diamond. 2. A beautiful memory. 3. Canned
peaches.
Akio That would be...
shadow Would be?
Akio Sorry, I've got another call.
shadow What? But we're on the air right now!
Akio It's me. Yeah. Yeah. Understood.
Akio I'll be right there.
Akio Sorry, something came up at work.
shadow "Work"? Which?
Akio The part time.

Saionji What the hell is that?
Touga Now, allow us to invite you, to the world you desire!
Saionji The Rose Bride is mine!
Touga What do you want? What are you after?
Touga What do you want to be?
Saionji What will you do if I tell you?
Saionji First of all, I don't trust you.
Touga Hey now, aren't you my one and only best friend?
Saionji "There's no such thing as friendship in this world."
Touga Oh, really?
Saionji That's right!
Utena You said you saw what?!
Saionji The world!
Touga Isn't this because you believe if you go there, you
can acquire something eternal,
Touga for example, eternal friendship?
Touga There was that girl who said she wanted to see
something eternal, right?
Saionji Really? I don't remember too well.
Touga That night, he saved that girl and brought her out of
the coffin.
Akio Lucifer. "Akio", my name, comes from that planet.
Touga Akio-san showed that girl something eternal.
Touga He saved her.
Utena If you really love her then try putting yourself in
Himemiya's place!
Saionji That's right. I used to think all the time about the
Rose Bride's feelings in my own way.
Saionji That's why I got so passionate. But now I understand.
Saionji That the Rose Bride has no will of her own!
Anthy Utena-sama?
Utena What?
Anthy Nevermind...
Utena Himemiya!
shadow That challenger just barely lost.
shadow Well, the champion's fighting style was truly
magnificent.
shadow Now the King of Impersonation has been on top for the
last eight weeks!
shadow Just four more matches and it'll be time to fight the
glorious Grand Champion of the Kings of Impersonation!
Utena That champion is so amazing.
Utena I wonder if he'll be able to challenge the Grand
Champion of the Kings of Impersonation?
Utena I hope he makes it.
Anthy Oh, are you all right standing by yourself?
Kozue Thank you. But since you've come all this way out
here,
Kozue the cute younger sister will tactfully bow out.
Kozue Take your time.
Kozue This letter. Is it from "her"?
Miki Yeah.
Miki It's from our mother.
Utena Wow, that's cool, getting a letter from your mother.
Utena I don't have any family, so I'm a bit jealous.
Kozue We don't need any parents.
Kozue After all, we're wild animals.
Miki Quit badmouthing them. Mother and Father are always
concerned about us...
Kozue Oh dear, I made you get all serious.
Miki Yeah. It was in the letter from mother.
Miki No, Kozue and I aren't opposed to it.
Miki Father, it's entirely up to you.
Miki I don't think we'll be able to make it to the wedding,
but we'll at least send a telegram.
Miki What? With who?
Miki Oh, don't bother. You mean new mother, right?. Don't
worry about that.
Miki Father?
Anthy Don't worry. Calling myself his mother so suddenly
would be too shameless.
Miki If Dueling means being manipulated by selfish adults,
I'm stopping right now.
Utena I swear, she just won't quit!
Utena She's got the nickname "alum". Why it's "alum" I
don't know,
Utena but before that was "teacup". And before that
was...what was it?
Utena What was it?
Utena Oh, damn it! I left the rolls sitting out from this
morning.
Utena I wonder if Himemiya'll put them in the fridge okay.
Utena If they don't get put into a plastic bag, they'll
start smelling like the stuff around them.
Kozue You don't have to be so bashful.
Kozue If she's so important to you, then make her yours.
Kozue What I want is for you to be happy.
Miki What're you talking about, all of a sudden?
Kozue I'm always honest with my feelings. That's all.
Kozue I don't lie.
Kozue If everything around you is dirty, don't you have no
choice but to get dirty too?
Kozue You've got no choice but to get dirty and then get
what you want.
Miki Himemiya-san!
Kozue What kind of amazing power?
Miki Kozue! What're you doing?!
Utena I wonder what made him Duel me so suddenly?
Anthy Who knows.
Miki Kozue!!
Kozue You'll lose if you don't keep your eyes on what you're
doing.
Utena I mean, Miki's more...
Anthy More what?
Miki What?!
Kozue Coward.
Akio Yes.
shadow Good evening! Is this Mr. "Ends of the World"?
Akio Yes.
shadow We finally got through!
shadow It really isn't good to hang up or switch calls all of
a sudden when you're on the air.
Akio Sorry about that. It was an emergency.
shadow Well then, let's go on to the second question!
Akio There's another one?
shadow 'Cause it's a rule. I wonder, I wonder, do you know
what I wonder!
shadow Multiple choice. Of the following three choices,
which is the miracle?
shadow 1. Edison's invention. 2. A meeting with a prince.
3. A can of coelacanth.
Akio A miracle. Yes...the power of miracles.
Ruka I was wondering how much you'd grown while I was away,
Ruka but it looks like I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up.
Juri So it really was you, Captain.
Ruka Hey hey, you're the captain now, Arisugawa.
Juri And whatever you're plotting as a Duelist is none of
my concern.
Juri But...
Ruka But?
Juri Keep your hands off of Shiori.
Ruka What for?
Juri Shiori is...
Juri Shiori is an old friend of mine.
Ruka I see. I understand what you're saying.
Ruka But I think you're misunderstanding something.
Juri What?
Ruka I said already that I was going to live the carefree
life.
Ruka Why shouldn't I be free to enjoy romance with anyone
in the Academy I want?
Shiori U-um...I'm sorry...
Shiori I, um, wasn't trying to...
Ruka I see. So it was you.
Shiori What...?
Ruka While I was away, somebody polished my sword every
day.
Ruka I was so happy.
Ruka It was you, right?
Shiori Yes. All for your sake,
Shiori every day I polished this sword...
Ruka Thank you. You're such a gentle person.
Shiori Oh no, I'm not-
Utena It's easy to mess up measures, isn't it?
Utena A while ago, I messed up when measuring maccaroni and
ended up filling this great big pot.
Utena And, it's really bad when you mess up the seasonings.
Utena If you're not careful you start putting in more and
more and end up screwing up.
Utena Portions that would feed three turn into enough for
ten and stuff.
Utena And you can't exactly undo it.
Utena Well, you can think you're just saving it for later...
Utena for hamburgers and lunchboxes and stuff like that...
Utena But that won't work for stuff like stews.
Utena You always try to do just what it says in the book,
right?
Utena You do just what it says and the flavor always seems
to come out wrong, doesn't it?
Utena I wonder why.
Utena Huh? The tables got turned.
Shiori Do you know how much I cared about you?
Shiori That's right! I polished your sword every day!
Shiori Only for you...
Ruka Oh that? That wasn't my sword.
Ruka Your acting was really something. Great, for an
ad-lib.
Utena Why, senpai?
shadow It seems he knew how sick he was. But he forced his
way out of the hospital anyway and went back to
school.
shadow I bet there's somebody he loved in the Fencing Club.
shadow Come to think of it, he was always saying:
Ruka Juri, don't worry.
shadow "I want to give the Power of Miracles to the one I
love."
Ruka Don't worry.
shadow "I want to free her."
Akio Miracles happen every day. It's just that people
don't realize it.
shadow Um, enough of the deep stuff. Please answer promptly.
Akio Answer?
Utena Um, having fun until this late...
Utena When I get back I gotta make lunch for tomorrow right
away.
Utena Um, what should I make?
Utena There's some salmon left, so...salmon and...
Utena Then boil some asparagus...and fix some omelette real
quick...
Utena Usually, we just use all the leftovers from dinner,
see...
Utena ...since there's two helpings for Himemiya and me...
Utena What a mess. What'll I do?
Utena I can't think of anything.
Utena Salmon, and asparagus, and omelette...but what else?
Utena What should I do?
Utena Hey, what do you think? Maybe sandwitches?
Utena If I mix the asparagus and salmon with some mayonaise,
break in a boiled egg...
Utena I don't know. What'll I do?
Utena Oh man. Isn't there anything else?
Utena I can't remember.
Utena And those are sitting out too...will they be okay?
Utena We always put them into you know... and... in the
fridge..., but today...
Utena Um...

Utena What is eternity?
Akio Is that Anthy?
Anthy Yes.
Akio What're you doing there?
Anthy I was watching the stars.
Akio The stars are beautiful tonight.
Akio You didn't have to watch the Planetarium.
Anthy I didn't want to look at the real stars.
Anthy Have you received today's roses?
Akio Yeah, I received them.
Akio Thanks for your help.
Akio Weren't the stars beautiful tonight?
Utena I didn't expect that to happen.
Utena All I came for today was to deliver roses.
