TITLE SEQUENCE.
[With the other version of Jajauma ni Sasenai
de, and an art card matching the voice-over.]
SUZY [VO]: Ne! Hentai-Sensei desu!
1. HILL BY NERIBANDA.
[A hill, overlooking most of the Neribanda
district.]
[CAPTION: Neribanda, Japan - Friday 1 September
1995 ]
[The camera moves, and we see that there is a
figure on the hill. The same little man that we
saw the lost boy let out of the cave last week.
He looks down over the district, then briefly
consults a sheet of paper. He nods.]
HIM: Ha - I was right! That fledging little dojo is
there...good. Well, get ready, students - I'll
make you remember the day you shut your mentor
into a cave. Oh, yes! I surely will!
[He laughs a bit, then suddenly has a bra in his
hand. He covers his face with it and lets out a
contented sigh.]
2. CORRIDOR OUTSIDE R & S CLASSROOM.
[Two students are getting far too physically
violent towards each other for their own good.
Ratbat, Suzy and Niki stand partway up the
corridor, looking on. After a moment, Ruthie-
sensei [child] emerges from the classroom and
sees the other students.]
RUTHIE: Hey!! Stop that!
[They barely notice.]
RUTHIE: Oi! I'm the teacher here - when I tell you to do
something, you do it!!
[They continue.]
RUTHIE: OK! You asked for it!
[She pulls the coin from her pocket and draws
the circle in the air.]
RUTHIE: Happo go-en satsu!
[Suzy winces.]
SUZY: Nerf. Man, I hate this part...
[Ratbat covers her eyes against the light, then
it fades and we're looking at Ruth, the sexy
adult, standing over the students, now drained
of energy.]
RUTH: Really, children...one of these days you'll just
have to learn to follow instructions...
RATBAT: I still wanna know 'ow she does that.
NIKI: Somehow, Batti-chan, I don't think you'll really
be able to find out.
RATBAT: Och, [indistinct grumbling].
SUZY: Oh, come on, you only want to be able to do it
so she can't do it to you.
[She opens Those Eyes at Niki.]
SUZY: A bit like you are sometimes...
NIKI: Ooh!
[Suzy playfully sweeps her off her feet, and all
three disappear around the corner. Sayuri, who
watched the whole exchange, approaches Ruth.]
SAYURI: How do you do that, sensei?
[So much for it being hard to find out.]
RUTH: It was a course of lessons I had when I was
younger...
3. OUTSIDE DOJO.
[Usual establishing shot.]
RUTH [VO]: ...from the Rejinra class of martial arts...
4. LIVING ROOM.
[Len and Bobbi doing the usual, ie drinking
scotch and playing shogi. Bobbi points over
Len's shoulder.]
BOBBI: Look!
[Len looks. While he does, Bobbi moves a piece.]
LEN: Eh? There's nothing there.
BOBBI: Nani? Oh, so sorry - my mistake. It's your go,
isn't it?
LEN: Ee.
[He makes his move. Then, as Bobbi considers
hers, he points over he shoulder.]
LEN: Nan da yo?!
[While she turns, he moves a whole bunch of
pieces.]
BOBBI: There's nothing.
LEN: Are you sure? Sorry, I must be getting old.
[Bobbi makes her move, then points behind Len.]
BOBBI: Masaka!
LEN: Aah!
[He turns. While he does, Bobbi moves the board
away entirely and puts a chessboard in its
place. Len looks back at it, but doesn't seem to
notice, making a move nonetheless. Fiona enters
with some tea, just as the kids return home.]
RATBAT: Konnichiwa!
[Niki is carrying a book, which she glances at.]
NIKI: Are we all... [in English] happy?
[The parents suddenly look rather alarmed and
embrace each other in terror.]
LEN & BOBBI: Aaaaaaaaaahh!!!
LEN: What makes you say that?!
BOBBI: What have you heard? Go wash your mouth out with
WD40!
SUZY & RATBAT: Huh?
NIKI: What'd I say? 'Happy'...it's eigo for
'tanoshii'.
[The parents relax.]
SUZY [Suspicious]:Why...what's the significance of 'happi'?
[They look at each other.]
LEN: You tell them.
BOBBI: Uh-uh. You tell them.
LEN: Anta!
BOBBI: Anta!
LEN: All right then, I bloody will!
BOBBI: The hell you will, Panda-boy!
LEN: OK, you go on!
BOBBI: No way!
[Suzy stamps her foot, making quite a loud
noise, and a few cracks in the floor. She is
doing those Creepy Evil Tendo EyesTM , as often
appear in Ranma �.]
SUZY [Dark]: Both of you tell them.
[They look at each other again, and Bobbi
finally takes up the tale.]
BOBBI: Suzy and Ratbat would only have been about three
when it happened...it was for few months or
so...
[Len nods.]
LEN: It was the final stage...
[Flashback to:]
5. DOJO IN HAKODATE.
[CAPTION: Hakodate, Japan - Friday 4 June 1982
]
[A normal-looking training hall. There are two
of those posts that martial artists bash here,
each being bashed by a martial artist. These
martial artists are Len [almost exactly the same
as 1995, but with that little bit of black still
in his hair], and Bobbi [pretty much the same as
when we saw her in 1983 two episodes ago].]
LEN [VO]: ...of our training to full martial artists of
the Rejinra school.
[We see that also in the room is the little
pervert, also exactly the same. Zoom slowly in
on him.]
BOBBI [VO]: Our sensei was an old master who had been
teaching since before either of us were even
born. In fact, he himself had been the lord of
the class for quite some time, and had even
given it its current name.
[The little man sips from a pint of Guinness
while he watches them.]
BOBBI [VO]: He was called...Happousai Graham.
LEN [VO]: Aye, but his nickname was 'Happi'.
NIKI [VO]: Oh...sooka.
[The flashback Graham claps his hands, and guide
his students to stand before him, from where he
demonstrates some moves, which Bobbi and Len
duplicate.]
LEN [VO]: Even though he didn't look it, he was a bloody
powerful fighter, we knew that much. Some people
even thought he might have been possessed by a
demon or something. At first he trained us well,
giving to us some of techniques that only he
knew.
[Mix to:]
6. HILLSIDE NEAR VILLAGE.
[What it says.]
LEN [VO]: But, when we started trekking across Japan for
what he called a training expedition, we knew
that he was only really in it for his own
pleasure.
[It's still 1982: Bobbi, Len and Graham coming
running up from the village, pursued by an angry
mob.]
BOBBI [VO]: We were always been chased out of villages
because of some crime he'd committed.
7. CITY STREET.
[Graham is struggling to hide a stash of stolen
underwear behind his back while he points to Len
and Bobbi.]
BOBBI [VO]: Sometimes he'd even blame us for what he'd done!
[A bunch of angry people look from Graham to Len
and Bobbi, and then set on the latter.]
BOBBI [VO]: In short, he was...
8. WINE BAR.
[Graham has leapt up to glomp a waitress, much
to Bobbi and Len's disgust. To glomp: to leap up
and grab someone's chest and cling on, with
one's mouth around one of the target's breasts,
or trying to be.]
BOBBI [VO]: ...a pervert...
9. OUTSIDE RESTAURANT.
[Len and Bobbi taking the flak while Graham runs
off with a heap of stolen food.]
BOBBI [VO]: ...a thief...
10. CITY STREET (2).
[Graham before a police, pointing and evidently
falsely accusing Bobbi and Len again.]
BOBBI [VO]: ...a liar...
11. WILDERNESS.
[A jungle, a wilderness. A tree has fallen on
Len and Bobbi and they are pinned beneath it.
Graham stands by laughing.]
BOBBI [VO]: ...and above all, a cruel master!
[The two beneath the tree exchange
conspiratorial looks.]
LEN [VO]: So, we decided, grand master or no grand master,
we couldn't take any more.
[Mix to:]
12. STREET CORNER.
[We can see the window of a drinking
establishment, through which Len and Graham can
be seen drinking. Especially the latter.]
[CAPTION: Graviton City, Japan - Wednesday 1
September 1982 ]
[Move slightly round the corner, and we can see
a prostitute standing there, waiting for
business. Bobbi approaches, offers her an amount
of money, points inside, and they talk
business.]
LEN [VO]: One night, while I was making sure he ended up
decently yopparatta...
SUZY [VO]: ...which, no doubt, you ended up yourself...
LEN [VO]: Bullshit. Well...anyway, it was in the line of
duty.
SUZY [VO]: Of course...nerf.
LEN [VO]: ...anyway, while I was doing that, Bobbi set to
work.
[On Bobbi and the prostitute, mix to:]
13. ROAD AROUND HILL.
[There are slightly fewer buildings in this
place thirteen years ago. The cave mouth is
open, and the rock to one side. Len staggers up
the road with Graham. While this goes on, Bobbi
says a final thing to the prostitute and
disappears from sight. By the time Graham and
Len get there, the prostitute is clad only in
some very skimpy lingerie. The drunken Graham
sees this and freezes.]
PROSTITUTE: Why, hello there...
[Graham gets really huge cute eyes.]
GRAHAM: Pretty lady...
PROSTITUTE: You know...you look like just the sort of man I
could get to know better...
GRAHAM: Banzai...!
[He leaps forward, mouth open, ready to go the
full glomp. At the last second, however, the
prostitute steps away and he goes flying into
the cave.]
14. INSIDE CAVE.
[There are other tunnels leading off from the
cave, but Graham just goes flying into the back
wall and knocks his head.]
GRAHAM: ...onna...
[Out cold.]
15. ROAD AROUND HILL.
[Len and Bobbi slowly shove the boulder back
into place over the cave mouth, then lean
against it panting.]
GRAHAM [VO]: They haven't heard from me since, and they don't
want to, either.
[End flashback.]
16. LIVING ROOM.
[Back to 1995. Len and Bobbi [CU] both nod.]
BOBBI & LEN: Mochiron.
[They realise, and look up to see the figure
framed by the open wall. The children all follow
their gaze. You guessed it - Happousai Graham is
back!]
GRAHAM: How are you, Tendo...Sigmatome? You well?
[Everyone just sits there dumbstruck for a
moment. Then Len and Bobbi suddenly cringe to
the ground and start crying.]
LEN & BOBBI: Yurushi, sensei!!!
GRAHAM: Forgiveness?
BOBBI: We didn't mean to do it!
LEN: We didn't even know we were doing it!
BOBBI: It was all a joke!
LEN: Joke? Nani? Hai, that's it - just one big
itazura!
[They both giggle, then laugh enormously. Graham
rolls his eyes.]
GRAHAM: Urusai.
[They both instantly stop and fall silent.
Suddenly, Graham pounces across the table and
clings to the front of Bobbi's dress. He tries
to glomp, but it looks more like a woodpecker
pecking: Bobbi, ye see, isn't quite so
exorbitant in that area as, say, her younger
daughters or her future son-in-law.]
GRAHAM: Gah! Still nothing there! Can't you have more
babies or something?
[Bobbi bows really low.]
BOBBI: Shitsureshimashita, sensei...
[Graham gets down, then turns and sees the
children.]
GRAHAM: On the other te...these ones might not be so bad
after all!
[He leaps again, trying to stick his head down
Niki's cleavage. She screams and pulls him off.
He goes from there to Suzy, but as soon as he
gets close, she snaps at him and he shies off.
Launching at Fiona, he is deflected by the tray
instantly in her hands.]
FIONA: Would you like some tea?
[He finally decides to get comfortable between
Ratbat's two sets.]
GRAHAM: Aaaa...oyasuminasai!
[Ratbat growls and swats him to the floor.]
RATBAT: Dette ike, hentai!
NIKI: That's right...nobody's allowed to touch Suzy's
mune except me...!
SUZY [Sexy]: ...and that's because you know exactly how t--
uh?
[They look down, and see that Bobbi and Len are
fawning all over the old master.]
BOBBI: Oh, please, sensei...don't judge us on our
children.
LEN: That's right...they're proper little shits, all
of 'em. In fact...
[He waves his hand to include all four
children.]
BOBBI: Hai! Take whichever one you want! Take all of
them, in fact? Just don't hur--
[At this point, both she and Len suddenly find
that they have mallets pounding on their heads,
wielded by Ratbat, Suzy and Niki.]
NIKI, SUZY, RATBAT: Baaaaka!
[They go to the floor. Graham, meanwhile, leaps
up onto Fiona's tea-tray.]
GRAHAM: Aa! Ocha! Arigato, my sweet!
[He picks up a cup of tea, then starts to move
towards Fiona's chest. Just for a moment, she
catches his eye. Just for the briefest of
seconds, she fixes him with a glare that could
shatter mountains. For the blink of an eye, he
is held in abject terror of this woman.]
[Then she returns to normal.]
FIONA: Do itashimashite!
[It was enough. Graham coughs slightly, then
turns to face the pair on the floor.]
GRAHAM: Is that what you two think? That I've come for
revenge? That just because it was thirteen years
ago to the day that you both locked me in a cave
with no hope of escape that I might want to take
some kind of horrible vengeance on you? Hontoo,
do you really think I'd be so vindictive?
[Bobbi and Len nod, then quickly revise it to
shaking their heads.]
GRAHAM: Ha! Well, I am! In fact, when I was on my way
here, that was my first thought - revenge!
[They cower and try to hide under each other.
Len scrambles to the table and pours a glass of
water on himself, changing in the process. He
then holds up a sign saying, 'Not me, surely?
I'm just a panda.' Graham narrows his eyes.]
GRAHAM: So, Len...you paid a little visit to the cursed
pools at Jusenkyou, did you?
[Len spins the sign, revealing that the other
side bears the words 'Len? Who's Len? I think he
died.' He chomps bamboo to make his point, while
Bobbi glares at him.]
GRAHAM: Ja, you needn't worry anyway. By the time I
arrived, I decided to let bygones be bygones.
Let's bury the hatchet.
BOBBI [simultaneous]: Nani?
LEN [sim]: Growr?
[Len spits out the bamboo, causing Fiona to
frown at him.]
GRAHAM: I'm not getting any younger, my seito...in fact,
[lying] I'll be twenty-one next birthday. So, I
reckon I'll go into semi-retirement.
[Bobbi raises her hand.]
BOBBI: 'Semi'-retirement?
GRAHAM: That's right, Bobbi...until I can find a
suitable heir to take over my position as lord
and master of the Rejinra-class martial arts. I
thought to myself, what better place to do this
than one of the few dojos in the country that
still teaches in the Rejinra style? And then I
remembered the dojo that you had been planning,
Tendo-san... Surely you won't mind me hanging
around here now and again? Just to see the
fighting styles, you understand.
[The way his eyes scope some of others at this
point indicates that the terms 'fighting styles'
and 'young girls' are obviously interchangeable.
Len looks at Bobbi and nods his head
vigorously.]
BOBBI: Ha-hai...of course, sensei. Ima... if you'll
excuse me, I must have word with the children.
[She guides Niki, Ratbat and Suzy out of the
room. There is a pause, then:]
BOBBI [OOV, off]: Listen, you three, when one of my very
powerful teachers wants to stick his mouth over
your tits, you let them!
[There is a thump, and Bobbi flies back into the
room.]
RATBAT [OOV, off]:Jodan janai ne.
GRAHAM: Hmm...she's a live one. I might have to keep an
eye on her...
17. KITCHEN, KUNOU MANOR.
[Jarrah is here, doing a series of graceful
moves with his rubber sword. He then turns to
face something. There is a number of foodstuffs
on the bench before him, including: a loaf of
bread, a pat of butter, some salami, a few
vegetables...that sort of thing.]
JARRAH [VO]: Now - I would strike.
[He lets out a mighty yell, and sweeps along the
bench with his weapon, sending the food flying
into the air. We then see him cutting and
swiping all over the place amongst the flying
food. A final tap to the bench flips a plate to
his hand, and he uses it to catch the assembled
ingredients of a sandwich. At this point, Tim
and Gosunkugi enter.]
TIM: Kunou-sama...
[Jarrah turns to face them, his sandwich held
proudly.]
JARRAH: Hai!
[At this point, all of the food that didn't
become part of the sandwich showers down on top
of him.]
JARRAH: Accursed food.
TIM: Kunou-sama...allow me to present Gosunkugi Sam.
[Gosunkugi bows.]
TIM: Gosunkugi-san has been known to practice in the
mystic arts, sir, so--
JARRAH: Of course, Timothy. If he does indeed know of
those matters beyond the natural world, then
perhaps he might be able to conceive of a white
magic that can counteract the black which has
been cast by that demonspawn Ratbat. Perhaps,
under my own guidance of course, the red-haired
girl will finally be freed of the demonic
hypnosis that calls her to respond to the name
and sound of Sigmatome. Then, naturally, she
will be grateful to me and leap into my waiting
arms...as will Tendo Suzy, overwhelmed with
gratitude that I have freed her friend from that
evil lock. Hai...hai, fair beauties...I shall
save you. Gosunkugi-kun, what art thou capable
of?
[Cut back to Gosunkugi, who is busy trying to re-
light the candle on top of his head. Tim has
started doodling on the table. Both realise, and
return their attention to Jarrah. Gosunkugi gets
out a voodoo doll.]
GOSUNKUGI: Well, uh, sempai...I've been trying a whole
bunch of different types of spells for quite a
while now.
[He fiddles with a nail in the doll's arm, and
Tim scratches the appropriate position on
himself.]
GOSUNKUGI: This voodoo doll for example...
[He taps its head and Tim flinches a couple of
times.]
JARRAH: It is with this...toy that you plan to unravel
the doings of Sigmatome Ratbat?
GOSUNKUGI: What? Oh, no - this is just a sample of the kind
of things I do.
[He fiddles by waving the doll back and forth
between his hands, and Tim becomes unsteady.]
GOSUNKUGI: I mightn't be able to match up to the full power
that Tim says you say Ratbat has, but I might be
able to free that girl.
[He discards the doll head-first onto the table,
and Tim is knocked unconscious. Sam looks at
him.]
GOSUNKUGI: Funny...the doll isn't actually of him.
[He shakes his head.]
JARRAH: Ano, Gosunkugi - are you able to give me a
demonstration of your craft?
[He looks caught out.]
GOSUNKUGI: Nani? Uhh...not now, Kunou-sempai. But I will be
able to make an attempt to free the girl...
[Dissolve to:]
18. COMMON ROOM.
GOSUNKUGI [VO]: Next Monday, at school...
[Ratbat-chan is here, writing in a notebook. It
is otherwise empty. We become aware that
Gosunkugi moves near her. She briefly looks up,
but doesn't seem to register that an [unlit]
candle or two has appeared nearby. She goes back
to writing. She doesn't notice at all when
Gosunkugi does it again, making a small ring of
candles around her on the floor. He then sets to
work pouring something on the floor near the
candles and splashing it all over the place.
Ratbat sniffs slightly, looks around, but still
doesn't notice Gosunkugi. She looks around as he
is drawing a chalk ring, but her head movements
are such that he is always out of her view. She
returns to the book once more. He retires to
stand next to Jarrah nearby.]
JARRAH: And you say that this spell will unleash her
from the evil hypnotic grasp of Sigmatome
Ratbat?
GOSUNKUGI: Hai.
JARRAH: Then, by the name of all the Kunou ancestors,
let us begin!
[Gosunkugi lights a taper with his head-candle.]
GOSUNKUGI: Now...all that I need to do is light the candles
with this as I utter the incantation...
[Over at the door, Niki and Suzy poke their
heads in.]
NIKI: Ne, Batti-chan! We're going for some food. You
wanna come?
RATBAT: Hai!
[She grabs her things, steps over all the
'magic' stuff, and goes after them.
Unfortunately, Kunou and Gosunkugi are far too
absorbed in their doings to notice this. Ratbat
and the Tendos are out the door, when Sam,
muttering something mystical-sounding to himself
under his breath, lights the first candle...]
[...and there is a huge explosion.]
19. FRONT DOOR.
[An ordinary-looking door on an ordinary-looking
house in an ordinary-looking city.]
[CAPTION: Interlude
Springfield, USA - Monday 4
September 1995 ]
[Guess who's here? A clue: He's got a grey
fedora with a yellow-and-black bandanna for a
hatband, GPs and a backpack. Yes, it's the Lost
Boy! He walks up to the door and knocks on it.
It soon opens to a balding man with yellow skin
tone and a beer gut.]
MAN: Y'ello?
LOST BOY: Sumimasen. Sigmatome Ratbat wa koko ni
sundeiruka?
[There is a pause as the man stands there and
blinks for a bit. We CU on his head.]
MAN [VO]: Heyy...what's going on? This guy talks funny. Is
he Japanese or something?
[His mouth becomes more focal.]
MAN: Mmmm...sushi...
[He gets lost with the notion, his mouth open
drooling. The wanderer realises he is getting
nowhere.]
LOST BOY: Aaa...suman.
[And he goes.]
20. AREA BEHIND COMMON ROOM.
[The common room itself is now a smoking mass of
debris. We see fire-fighters putting out a few
final fires. Nearby we see, blackened and soot-
stained, Jarrah and Gosunkugi.]
JARRAH: Doth Ratbat's power extend even this far? That
he would rather a whole section of our fair
college was destroyed rather than release a
single woman from his foul slavery?
GOSUNKUGI: Of course, it could be because I kinda used the
wrong ko...
JARRAH: Wrong incense?
GOSUNKUGI: Eeto... the spell called for oil of
rosewood...but I made do with...kerosene.
[Jarrah thinks this over.]
JARRAH: Iie. That must be that blackguard's sabotage to
my noble cause. Do not lose heart, Gosunkugi.
With your help, I shall release the evil hold
Sigmatome has over women.
[Cut to the exit to main college, where Niki,
Suzy and Ratbat-kun are standing watching.]
RATBAT: Gordon Bennett - ye canna leave this place for
ten minutes...
[He shakes his head.]
RATBAT: Where were we?
SUZY: Wondering about Happi Gra-Gra.
NIKI: I don't know what Haha and your dad are so
worried about. He seems harmless enough.
RATBAT: Aye, except in the bum-pinching and breast-
biting areas...
SUZY: Well, think about it, guys...he's not exactly
going to advertise his powers.
RATBAT: I dunno why, if 'e's as great as 'e's made out
to be.
SUZY: He's a martial arts master. They like to
have...what's the word? Humility. When you get
to be that good, you learn to keep a low
profile.
GRAHAM [OOV]:HIDE ME!!!!
[They look about, and finally see that the cry
came from the direction of the gym. A lot of
angry female voices cry out, and Graham flees
the building, toting a large bag behind him. He
hurries up to stand behind Suzy.]
NIKI: Hide you? Aren't you supposed to be the greatest
warrior of your kind?
[He ignores her.]
GRAHAM: They won't leave me alone! I'm only gonna borrow
it for a while!
RATBAT: Ne? Borrow what?
GRAHAM: None of your business!
[Graham grabs for the bag, but Suzy picks it up
and looks in it.]
SUZY: Nani?
[She pulls out a pair of underpants from the
bag.]
SUZY: Underwear! The whole thing's full of shitagi!
GRAHAM: It's for my research...!
SUZY: EECHI!
[She tries to kick him, but he has jumped aside
as he has seen something.]
GRAHAM: Hey, pretty lady...!
[They turn to see that he has spotted the adult
Ruth-sensei coming out of the building. He
adopts a lecherous expression, which is soon
replaced by another, more thoughtful, one.]
GRAHAM: Chotto mate... do I...?
[He trails off as the effects of Ruth's latest
fix fade, and she returns to her child shape.]
GRAHAM: You...! I do know you!
[Ruthie turns to see him.]
RUTHIE: Wheee...uh-oh.
GRAHAM: You...you traitor!
SUZY: Didn't you say you'd given up on revenge?
GRAHAM: Ah, shut up. That was for you guys' parents. Not
her!
[He whirls and points at her. He seems to be
emitting a low, guttural growl. The kids step
back. We see that as he growls, his hitherto
unnoticed muscles ripple. His aura glows bright
black. Eyes burn with fury, and his whole body
tenses for battle. He flicks his hair free of
its ponytail. This guy has just poured all his
energies in for the strike. He lets out a howl
and lunges for Ruthie. Ruthie grabs for her coin
and starts to draw the ring. She looks quite
panicked.]
RUTHIE: Aa...aa...Happo go-en sa--
[Too little too late. He jumps right through the
imaginary circle and straight into Ruthie,
knocking her to the ground. Quite a vicious
blow, too. He lands next to her, and looks all
ready to continue when he hears something from
the gym.]
FEMALE VOICE:Hey! He's out here!
ANOTHER FEMALE VOICE: Deviant! Let's get him!
[A rush of angry girls bearing sporting gear and
looking ready to hit a dirty old man with it,
pour out of the gym. Graham looks from them to
Ruthie to them again.]
GRAHAM: Chikusho!
[He regains his normal stance and posture, and
bounces over to grab his bag.]
GRAHAM: I can't do it with them all over me! [To Ruth]
You'll keep, my girl. Just remember...[right in
her ear]...I'll be back! [Pause] Again!
[He bounds away laughing, the angry girls
chasing him. All is quiet for a moment.]
SUZY: Now, what d'you suppose all that was about?
NIKI: Stealing underwear?
SUZY: The other bit.
NIKI: Oh, that.
[Ruthie-sensei groans, prompting them to go over
to her.]
RUTHIE [Weak]: Se..sen-se...i?
[They exchange glances, then help her into a
sitting position.]
NIKI: Easy now, sensei....
RATBAT: He took ye pretty hard.
SUZY: Dooshite, sensei...kurushinoka?
RUTHIE: Aaa...not my...best day, Tendo-san...arigato.
Was that really...Happousai Graham...?
NIKI & RATBAT: Hai.
SUZY: You know him?
RUTHIE: He taught me...a long time ago...
[They help her to her feet, the Tendos
supporting her.]
RATBAT: The absorbing thing?
[She doesn't seem to hear him.]
RUTHIE: ...and he's tracked me down at last...at long
last... He's a very mean man - this is gonna
mean...trouble.
