What's important in order to live
Finding the lake was a big win for all of us.
But the sun was strong, the humidity in the forest was high...
...and it was very hard making the three-hour round trip.
What are you doing, Luna? Get out of my way! I'm really thirsty!
Give me some more water.
No, there isn't much left.
We're going to gather more again today, right?
We have something we need to do before then.
What is this thing?
It's this.
Isn't that the rubber boat?
It sure is.
We're going to dig a big hole and fill it with this.
I get it! We're going to store water in it, right?
Correct!
After that, we can stop goin' for water all the time.
Don't spray sand on me!
Kaoru, lend me that.
Don't get so smug.
It's easier with my hands!
It's only soft on the surface!
Try to put up with it a little.
If you find something that seems useful, bring it back.
--Thank you. --Thank you.
Where's mine?
There isn't one.
Then hand that over!
I'm using this!
Stop that, Howard!
This one's way better! I'm saved!
Use it carefully.
Why you...
Who do you think you're looking at when you say that?
Howard, you dig over there.
Shut up!
And what's your deal?
You're not doing anything yourself.
You're just giving orders like you're all that!
You may take it as selfish...
...but giving people the right directions is my duty as the leader.
You're the leader?
Who decided that?
This isn't just an extension of the school trip.
Then what would you prefer we do?
Make me the leader.
You?
The least suitable to be the leader...
...is the selfish, cowardly...
...type like you with no leadership skills.
What?
Both of you, stop it!
Yeah.
In that case, we can decide who's best suited to be leader once we've looked at everyone's qualifications for a while.
Yeah.
Agreed!
Kaoru, are you okay with that too?
Yeah.
I guess it's decided.
Fine.
We depart for the lake!
Be careful!
Halt!
A monster?
What's up with it scaring me like that?
It's so cute!
Hey, let's call that thing a 'Tobihane'.
Tobihane?
Yeah.
(Tobihaneru: to hop) Because of how it hops all over the place.
Yeah, that sounds good.
Once we've collected water, let's capture that tobihane.
For a pet?
For food.
It's been a while since we all came here together.
Oh yeah!
Sharla, give this lake a name too.
Let's see...
A lake of sprites.
Fairy Lake! How's that?
Fairy Lake...
That's a good name.
Luna!
Howard!
Don't play pranks on people!
What's wrong?
Luna?
I just...
Look!
There's fruit!
It's true!
There's fish too.
What's wrong?
That's the tree you talked about, right Luna?
It's big, wide, and it gives you the feeling that it will cradle you gently.
Then what's that tree's name?
Let's see...
The Great Tree.
The Great Tree...
I think that's a very good name.
Sharla, you're like a poet.
Hey, come to think of it, it would be great if we could build a house at the top of that tree.
That's obviously impossible.
Hey, let's go over to The Great Tree.
Look at this footprint!
This shape...
It's the same as the ones left around the shuttle.
Then the thing that attacked the shuttle was that big animal we saw here before.
You didn't realize it then?
It was a bad time for it just then.
I see...
It may be a little dangerous to live here after all.
There's a giant lizard, too!
But there's plenty of water and fruit...
Are you okay?
Be careful!
You spilled a little.
Sorry...
It's not like Shingo did it on purpose...
We all suffer from the mistake of any one.
If it had all spilled out here, we would have had to go back to the lake.
I know. I'll be careful.
With this, we don't need to worry about rationing the water.
So you say, but I can't call it enough.
When you're thirsty, get my permission first.
What do we do with these?
Everyone will take one plastic bottle.
Take care of that much yourselves.
We'll have the fruit for dinner.
Just this isn't enough.
I'll go look for fruit with Sharla.
Then Kaoru, Shingo, and Bell, you take care of fishing.
Got it.
I'll get the tobihane.
After all, I'm the only one with hunting experience.
I won't have anyone going around alone.
I'll accompany you.
Do what you want!
But if you're slowing me down, I'll leave you behind.
In the end, all we got were the mushrooms and fruit Luna and Sharla found.
Chako, check them out.
Okay!
No good! These're poisonous mushrooms!
These are?
But they look so tasty...
You can't judge by appearances.
These're no good either.
Really...
That's disappointing.
So that means all we have to eat today are the fruit we brought back from the lake?
Just that? I want to eat meat!
Meat...
I want to eat a big hamburger with a fried egg on it.
Or a thick juicy steak!
Or crispy fried bacon.
Or a carefully blended beef stew!
Now I can't stop...
So only your imagination is mature.
What? You...
We have nothing but fruit.
Tomorrow we'll definitely find food.
Meat, meat!
Oh no, oh no! Very bad!
It's prickly, puddly rain.
Where do you think you're going?
I'll look for food.
We said everyone would wait inside.
I'll worry about myself.
You're confused as to who the leader is.
I won't approve of it.
This is great!
What does a leader do at a time like this?
Are you thinking of how you should punish Kaoru?
But there's no student council here.
Miss Student Council President.
Howard, give it a rest!
Shut up!
I'm irritable 'cuz I'm hungry!
I'm going out for a while as well.
I'm not responsible if anything happens.
Is that okay?
I warned him.
Maybe I should search for fruit too.
I won't go anywhere dangerous...
Do what you want.
Sharla and I will go with Luna.
It'll be safer with three.
Hey...
Bell.
Hey.
How did it go...
..with the fruit?
I couldn't find any.
Really...
What's this pit?
I'm making a trap.
A trap?
You mean, to catch a tobihane?
What will you do once you catch it?
Will you kill it?
Such a cute animal?
What kind of silliness are you spouting?
We didn't get anything today!
Whether it's a tobihane or the giant lizard...
...if we don't kill and eat it we'll die.
I agree with Howard's view.
But...
...I pity them.
But you're fine with what you buy and eat from the supermarket.
That's right! It's just like Kaoru said!
Wait!
I understand what everyone's trying to say, but I think you should try to understand how Sharla feels.
I mean, none of us have any experience doing this in the past.
Howard! Hurry!
I haven't eaten in two days.
I don't have the strength left in me.
Howard, what are you doing?
I'll leave you behind!
Sharla, that's amazing!
If we don't try hard and search even more...
The tobihane will get killed!
Sharla...
I guess in the end, it's just the fruit that you found, Sharla.
Howard! It went that way!
I know!
Did you see that?
I chased him in!
How do you like that?
What's wrong?
We caught a tobihane.
It looks like it's in pain.
What are you doing?
Howard...
...will you eat it?
I'll...
...well...
Menori, what do you plan to do?
I'd...
Please, let it go!
It's hurt.
If we let it go, it wouldn't live.
I'll do it.
Luna...
We...
...don't know how much longer we'll have to live here.
We can't run away from what we have to do to survive.
I'll do it.
But...
Stop...
The poor thing!
You should eat.
I hate...
I hate you, Bell!
Sharla...
Understand his side.
Sharla, you understand best of all that Bell is really a kind person.
Put more kindling on it.
I know that Bell was only thinking of everyone's well being.
But...
...but...
I'm sorry for speaking without thinking.
No...
I'm sorry, Bell.
I know I did something I shouldn't have.
But I want you to forgive me, just this once.
I know.
Hey, this is about the leader, but the most appropriate out of all of us...
...is Bell, don't you guys think?
Bell knows best what's important in order to live on this island.
It's impossible for me.
But...
I think it should be Luna.
Me?
No way, no way! I don't have any leadership ability, and I'm a scatterbrain.
But you have compassion.
I'd agree to Luna as well.
I agree too.
Kaoru, what do you think?
Fine by me.
I said, it's impossible!
What're you sayin'? Accept it!
Menori, Howard, what do you think?
If four people agree out of seven, it's a decision by majority.
It can't be helped! I guess it's fine.
Then we're agreed that the new leader is Luna!
Good luck, Luna.
If everyone's so sure of me, I guess I'll give it my best.
That's the spirit!
Everyone has trouble waking up, and is weary and irritated from sleeping in the small shuttle.
It looks like we have no choice but to build a waterfront house by the lake.
And there's piles of water 'n food there, too.
Chako surveys, Shingo draws up the blueprints, and everyone helps cut down trees, but...
Next time: We can definitely live together amicably.
