The hell is with this guy?!

Nai, what's wrong?!
Yogi...
Nai!
Yogi! Yogi! Yogi!
- Yogi! Yogi! Yogi! Yogi! - Could the Varugas have gotten those two?
Nai, please.
Hide here and don't move, no matter what.
I'll be right back.
Tsukumo!
Episode 9 Blue Rose
If we, like, say we lost a fight against Circus...
Yeah, Mr. Uro will totally kill us.
Hey, you're the woman that ran, right?
Varugas.
What happened to those two?
So that's what you look like under the hood.
Huh.
You're cute!
Answer me!
Hell if I know!
That blondie blew his damn top out of nowhere.
Like, the black-haired brat is so R.I. P!
Impossible.
But considering Nai's reaction earlier...
It's certain that something happened.
Caught you off guard!
Thanks for playing!
Nai...
Yogi...
Woohoo!
Tsukumo!
Master Karoku?
What is the matter, Sir?
Master Karoku.
Are you all right?
Uro...
My head hurts, so I'd like to rest alone for a while.
There is still time until the party.
Please take your time and rest well.
Tsukumo, huh?
I hear you.
Cry out more, Nai.
Why... did I protect you?
He doesn't recognize me?
What the heck is happening to him?
Yogi.
What is it? Want to play?
Want to play, my ass!
Ow...
That's so mean, Ga...
Ga...
Huh?
Gare...
Gareki!
Thank goodness you're safe!
Was I unconscious?
I'm sorry.
Thank goodness.
You're warm... just like you... should... be...
Damn.
Nai.
Gareki.
Tsukumo...
It's Tsukumo!
Pardon me for disturbing your sleep.
What time it is has no bearing on those of us at the Research Tower.
Uh, yes, Sir.
After their medical exams, have Nai and Gareki just stand by.
Uh, um, if there is anything I can do...
You're with the Room of Life, so this isn't your area of expertise.
But since there were Varugas involved, I, too...
Azana, I understand how you feel like you need to be doing something.
You've lost family to Varugas,
so you probably can't help but take this personally.
Once you've finished your report, get some rest.
Where am I?
Mr. Uro's not even here.
Help me out a little here, Mr. Kagiri!
Should I go ahead and yell for him, just going with the flow?
We've come here without permission, stupid Kiharu.
He'll yell at us if we make a scene.
You have me at a loss...
Uro, you meanie!
The crowd of people became too much for Master Karoku
and he asked to be alone, so...
No! That's no fun!
Mistress Eleska, where are you going?
The restroom! Don't follow me!
I'll just sneak around and look for myself.
Maybe Karoku's on the roof.
A masked gathering... What's taking place here?
It won't connect...
The signal's being blocked?
Should I go on to spy on them?
No...
I have to get out of here quickly.
Oh, no...
What's with all your injuries?
Eleska...
I've seen you somewhere before...
- Mistress Eleska! - Mistress Eleska!
There was someone...
Go after them!
Yes, Sir!
Uro!
What is the matter?
The Circus girl that we were with on the train before...
Sh-She was bleeding!
What?! That woman got away?!
These people...
Please forget about them.
They are of absolutely no consequence
to your life of dazzling splendor, Mistress Eleska.
Escort her to her room.
Yes, Sir.
Um, so...
Mr. Uro...
Why are you two here?
What did you do?
Uh, um, well...
I-I-I... It's a long story...
Why are you two such idiots?
Care to try returning to the soil once?
Find the young Circus girl.
Half dead is fine.
Bring her to me.
So, both of you,
there's nothing especially wrong,
but just to be safe, I'm going to have you stay the night here.
Have they found Tsukumo?
Airship Two is pulling out all the stops to search for her.
I told you, remember?
And Yogi?
Results of the medical exams?
Neither of their numbers show any problems.
Good work, Ikami.
Nai. Gareki. Come with me.
Tea.
Um...
Get some fluids in you.
What about Yogi?
That's what we're going to talk about.
I have questions for you.
Questions?
Or rather, are you done examining him already?
He's received appropriate treatment
and he's sleeping now.
Tell me what happened before and after Yogi's change, in detail.
Anything you can think of.
Oh, Yogi didn't have the white thing on his face when I saw him later.
You mean his patch?
I noticed that it was gone on the way home, too,
but if he changed that drastically just because it came off,
how the heck would he manage putting on a new one?
You weren't there when it happened,
but he changed big time.
Even his hair color.
It was like...
Gareki...
When did the patch come off?
What? Then...
Yes, it's related.
But like you said,
I do not make faulty things that cease to work the instant they come off.
Is he sick or something? Psychologically?
It isn't that sort of thing.
It occasionally afflicts people who take on the special duties of Circus.
It's an allergy.
This bastard just hid all kinds of things behind those words.
Explain it to us properly.
We're caught in the middle of all this.
We've got a right to know, don't we?
I swear. I'm the one asking the questions here.
The abrupt change Yogi underwent this time is an irregular situation.
I've been informed of the fact that he had contact with Varugas,
but wasn't there anything else strange that happened to Yogi?
Oh!
In the room with lots of dolls, Yogi was crying because he was scared!
Dolls?
Was this in the mansion you went to investigate?
No, to be precise, it was a hidden room beneath the mansion.
Or rather, what was inside the box that Yogi brought back?
Box?
You know, it was in his coat.
A rusted box that rattles.
No, he didn't have it.
But tell me all the details.
Mr. Uro, um, here.
Kiharu picked it up during the battle.
Just going with the flow, I thought it was one of Mr. Kagiri's toys, but...
If this had passed into the hands of Circus,
it would surely have become evidence against us.
We very nearly handed the government their breakthrough...
Circus.
The cowardly government's damn playthings...
They keep searching out and capturing people who've come to us,
but those people are the tail to our lizard, they know nothing.
We can cultivate as many replacements as necessary.
It is about Mistress Eleska...
Later.
But to the tail,
we, the body, are the sole being that they eternally long for.
They cannot be stopped from offering us their assistance.
For what we sell them...
...is the love and hope that they seek.
Possessors...
I could fight haphazardly and take out the enemy in front of me,
but there's a high chance that more of them will show up.
Right now, I'm alone.
I have to think only about getting back alive.
But...
If...
If I don't make it...
I have to engineer my own death before I'm caught...
So that they can't cut up my body and use me...
So that I don't leave anything behind...
I wish I'd talked to everyone so much more.
Been with them more...
More...
It's because I trust you.
I'm counting on you, Tsukumo.
Hirato.
Such negative thinking...
After he entrusted me... After he believed in me...
I will not be my own end.
I am Circus!
I will hand my life to no one but my friends!
At this point, it's all conjecture,
but odds are, the box contained a Varuga body part
or some substance made of the same elements.
Left abandoned for a long time,
there's a chance that those elements leaked out and permeated the air.
If that idiot had forgotten to swap in a new patch,
its effectiveness in suppressing an allergic reaction
would likely be infinitely close to zero.
But even then, the probability of him going berserk is less than 50%...
Then, why?
If he'd breathed in air containing Varuga elements,
then it's a different story.
Varuga elements getting into his body would cause...
...the allergens to increase greatly.
He glossed over something again.
Then, the patch comes off,
the balance between his cells and the allergens is severely upset and he...
...goes berserk.
Huh.
Sounds awfully unstable.
You know, I've been meaning to ask about this, but...
Circus's abilities to fly and produce weapons and stuff...
How does that work?
You should ask Hirato or... No, ask Tsukitachi.
Yogi and Tsukumo are out of commission, after all.
It seems you guys will be given into the care of Airship One for a while.
Lack of sleep weakens the body.
Go to bed now.
Nai.
I bet you couldn't understand any of our talk earlier.
I sort of understood.
Liar.
It's true, Gareki.
I can sort of understand now, better than before.
I can tell when you think about Mr. Yotaka and the others, too.
When we're sleeping in our room,
it comes raining down from over where you are.
Sad feelings... Throbbing pain...
Murky, agonizing stuff...
When I see you awake, you're the same old Gareki,
so I've never tried asking you.
You see, everyone's quiet at night, so I can hear the small voices.
So if I sleep near the window, I might be able to hear Tsukumo's voice.
Are dangerous things happening to everyone because they're with me?
Well? Karoku?
This is bad, Mr. Kagiri!
If we don't catch that lady, it'll trigger our deaths for real...
We've got to find her!
Don't make a sound.
One peep and I will break your neck.
Please, just raise your hands over your head.
A hidden... needle...
I'm sorry, Tsukumo.
Thank you for being kind to Nai.
Have lots of fun and cry...

Mistress Eleska wishes to visit with you.
Ready, set

Go!
I'd like a visit, too.
Yes, Sir. Then I shall let her know...
Nai, where are you right now?
Master Karoku?
