SCRIPT (episode 36; version 1.0; 12/23/1999)



Utena Please...don't open this coffin. Saionji Who would have thought that that girl was Tenjou Utena... Saionji That girl who was inside the coffin. Touga She's still all alone within the coffin. Touga In order to save her, I'll beat her. Saionji It may be that the Chairman saved her back then. Saionji But she's still in the coffin. No, not just her. Saionji We're in our coffins too. text And the Gates of Night Open Akio So, what do you think? Akio Once you get used to it, it feels pretty good, doesn't it? Utena Yes...my heart was pounding. A lot. Akio I see. I'm glad. Utena It's been a really long time since I've spent time out in nature like this. Utena I feel like I'm dreaming or something. Utena It was really fun. Akio You're beautiful. The very image of a princess amidst the forest. Utena When you say that sort of thing...it sounds like you really mean it. Akio It's true. Touga Welcome back. Akio Thanks. Juri I wonder why. Juri For some reaon, she looks like a girl to me now. Miki Well of course Tenjou-senpai's a girl. Juri I know that. But... Miki Actually, she looks that way to me too. Juri Really. Miki But, isn't that something wonderful? Juri Do you really think so? Juri Something's about to change. No - not "something". Juri Everything. Everything in this school is about to change. Miki Everything in the school...then, it's like... Juri ...a Revolution? Miki Yes. Juri That's right. The day of Revolution is fast approaching. Juri But what is this frenzied, horrible feeling? Touga Whaddya think? Pleasant vibrations aren't they? Saionji They're not moving me. Touga Really. Saionji You've got messed-up tastes. That's not good. Touga I take it you don't like it because I'm driving? Saionji What I don't like is being dominated. Saionji Letting someone that deep into my heart. Touga You've always been a guy who couldn't hide his hostility. Saionji Hell if I care. Saionji So what're you gonna do? You planning to fight Tenjou Utena like this? Saionji Just like the Ends of the World is telling you to? Akio She was beautiful. Touga Her, you mean? Akio Yeah. Pure, and magnificent. Akio A peerless princess. Akio My precious one. Touga I know that. Saionji We must rise from our coffins! Saionji From within the coffins that the Ends of the World has prepared for us! Touga I'll give you an answer. Tonight. Saionji Tonight! Touga Saionji. Saionji Yeah. Touga Standing up is dangerous. Saionji Right. Utena Oh brother, you'll catch cold. Utena I wonder if Himemiya's with Akio-san again. Utena Hey, Chu-Chu, are you always alone like this while Himemiya's with her brother? Utena Mr. President. Touga I have something important to talk to you. Will you accompany me? Utena You're joking, right? Why're you bugging me at this hour? Touga What if I said I wanted to talk about the Ends of the World? Utena Okay. Utena This is my first time being in the Arena of Duels at night. Touga Are you scared? Utena It's not that. It's just that it feels different from how it usually does. Touga How does it feel? Utena How does it feel? Well... Touga Romantic? Utena No way. Touga I'd be glad if the two of us could go up alone like this into the heavens. Utena Hey, don't get so close to me. Touga My apologies. Utena Wow...this is kind of exciting. Utena Just like when I went to the park at night. Utena To think you and I actually Dueled here... Akio True. Utena There're so many stars. Utena What? Touga You're beautiful. Touga How fortunate I am to have been able to meet you. Utena Here you go again. Utena Just forget about that stuff and get to the point, okay? Touga Do you love the Chairman? Utena How...how could I? Utena He's got a fiancee, you know. Touga I see. Utena Why'd you ask me that. What about the Ends of the World? Touga The Ends of the World, huh? Touga I can't reveal his name now. You'll find out who he is soon enough. Touga But before that, I wanted to talk to you. Utena What about? Touga Is there no way I can be your Prince? Touga You're my only princess. Utena Not that again. Touga It's true. I love you. Touga From my heart, I treasure you. Touga Your nobility and beauty shine on many. Touga And even if I'm not worthy of you, please, be with me for at least this instant. Touga Just that will do. Touga If I can just carve the memory of this night, the two of us together, within me, Touga that will be enough. Will you permit me that much? Utena I understand. Touga Thank you.
Touga Is there no way I can be your Prince? Utena Come to think of it, that's what I thought when we first met. Utena That the President might be my Prince. Saionji How'd it go? Did you get this "answer" you wanted? Touga Yeah. Last night made it perfectly clear. Saionji Oh? Then care to let me in on it? Touga It's now clear that she's someone very important to me. Saionji So now what? Touga I will fight once again! Touga And I must prevail. Touga After all, there's no other way to save her. Touga If she wins the next duel, Saionji she gets the Power to Revolutionize the World. Saionji But if that happens... Touga ...she'll fall into the Ends of the World's hands. Saionji So, shall we? Anthy Utena-sama. Utena Hm? Anthy Where were you last night? Utena Oh, um, I had stuff to do. Touga Hi. May we join you? Utena What did you say? Touga Let me repeat myself. I want to Duel with you again. Utena What're you thinking? Touga You intend to protect the Rose Bride, correct? Utena That's right. I won't let anybody lay a finger on her. Touga Then I promise you this. If you win, none of the Student Council will ever target her again. Touga But if I win, you become my woman. Utena I misjudged you. I can't believe you'd say such a thing... Touga No objections? Utena No. shadow Gallop gallop gallop. Lo, give ear to the sound if ye be afar! shadow And behold if ye be close at hand! shadow For I be a Prince upon a white horse! shadow My! A Prince of white horses! shadow This flowing mane, these splendid forelegs...how magnificent! shadow See here, that's not the Prince of white horses, that's the white horse of the Prince. shadow The Prince is me. shadow But, does that mean you're not a human Prince? shadow I'm human, but I'm called a "Prince upon a white horse." shadow Well anyway, you're a Prince too right? How wonderful! shadow Do you really want a horse Prince? shadow Of horse! Touga This fight will determine the one who shall Revolutionize the World. Utena Who cares about that. Anways, your promise not to touch Anthy if I win is for real, right? Touga Yeah. Utena/AnthyGrant me the power to Revolutionize the World! Utena We just met here last night! Touga No personal feelings when you're in battle, Tenjou-kun! Touga Tenjou...I'll protect you. Utena How many times have I fought with you here? Touga This is the third. Utena How strange...it feels like we've fought so often... Anthy Utena-sama... Anthy Utena-sama! Utena Himemiya! Himemiya!! Anthy Utena-sama!! Utena Hey, Himemiya... Utena Believe in me. I'll protect you no matter what. Anthy Really? Utena Can't you believe in me? Utena Let's go. Akio-san is waiting. Touga Hold it. You've now become the one who will Revolutionize the World. Touga But you mustn't open your heart to the Ends of the World, or to the Rose Bride. Touga That's the last thing I can say. Utena Not that again...farewell, senpai. Saionji Touga. Touga Yeah. Saionji Is it over for us? Touga No. It's not over until we see it through the very end. Anthy I bet you're tired from today. Anthy Please get a good night's sleep. Utena Yeah. Isn't this great? Now there's nobody left who'll target you. Anthy Yes. Utena Akio-san... Utena Oh, shoot. I gotta get in bed the right way. Utena Himemiya? Utena Ah, there she is.
