Cuticle Detective Inaba
Yes, hello.
Cat Café Granada
What is it, Inaba-san?
Aren't you off today?
What? You arrested the goat?
Oh, that's good.
Please Come Again Meow
Where the hell did that sudden arrest report come from?!
FILE:11 Don Valentino Jailbreak Case
Police HQ
What do you mean?!
You're skipping the detaining and confinement
and sending him straight to prison?!
Calm down, Hiroshi.
How am I supposed to remain calm?!
I understand.
Valentino is indeed a mafia boss and a villain,
but he should also have the right to a fair trial.
Am I wrong, Commissioner?
Have you both forgotten?
Before he is a villain...
He is a goat.
How'd it go, Inaba-san?
It's no use.
They won't tell me where the goat is.
They mentioned there was a prison for those who aren't human.
He's definitely locked up, but something doesn't feel right.
I didn't know there was such a place.
Isn't it the zoo?
This prison, Alcamone, is not under any country's jurisdiction,
and the island itself has been erased from existence.
Meaning, no nation's laws are effective here.
Humans do not exist here!
It is a completely deserted island.
Don't think you're going to be treated like a human.
You are just a goat!
The word "compassion" doesn't exist in the AI brains of us guard robots!
We have no reservations about dousing you with boiling water!
You're a hot water dispenser, you are.
Hot, hot, hot, hot!
Any form of currency means nothing here.
Meaning, you're penniless.
You will get points for any work done here,
so work hard.
To use and receive points, we need your identification.
Hurry and record your fingerprints.
Fingerprints?
Fingerprint, palm print, face print, voice print, retinas, DNA...
Hot, hot, hot, hot!
Goat or not, you have to have one of them, so cough it up!
Look, it's Valentino.
So they finally caught him, too.
He is a goat, just like the rumor said.
I'm the only one in stripes?!
This is your cell.
There is a human, there is.
Dinner is in five minutes. Wait in your cell until then.
But you said there were no humans.
Hot, hot, hot, hot!
Shut up! Quit complaining and just wait in your cell!
My name is Don Valentino.
What is your name?
Hey, can you not speak?
My name is Don Valentino, it is.
Wh-What are you doing?!
I am clean, I am! I do not smell!
You smell nostalgic.
My name is Akiyoshi. Pleasure to meet you, Don.
R-Right...
It's time for dinner!
Proceed to the cafeteria at once!
What is the matter, Akiyoshi?
We should hurry and go, we should.
Go on ahead.
I've got a bad leg, so I walk slowly.
There's no reason to hurry.
Field Guide to Plants
Your stomach was grumbling.
You're just hearing things, you are.
Yo, Valentino.
You're Lee, one of the heads of the Chinese mafia, you are!
You should be dead, you should.
So that's what they're saying, huh?
As you can see, I'm doing great.
Must be nice rooming with Akiyoshi.
He can't talk, so it must be nice and quiet.
That makes it sounds like I'm noisy.
Give me a break, sir.
Your snoring is quite bad, too.
To think how many sleepless nights I've had...
What'd you say?
Be careful what you say.
Who do you think I am?
That was wasteful, Akiyoshi.
Make sure you pick it up and eat it.
Thomas again, eh?
He's the little one who gets his thrills by bullying the weak.
Pay no attention to him.
You again, Akiyoshi?!
Hurry and clean it up!
Stop, you will! Akiyoshi is not at fault!
Shut up!
Those who talk back will get hot water, too!
Akiyoshi!
Sorry, Don.
I guess we didn't get to eat.
Who cares about that?
Why won't you say anything?!
You should tell the koala and
the guard what they deserve, you should!
Sorry. It's a habit that I can only speak in front of my boss.
Your boss?
But I wonder why it is...
I didn't even want to talk to anyone else before,
but I have no problem talking in front of you.
All right! Then I will become your new boss, I will!
You will?
Eventually, my family will come rescue me, they will.
I will take you with me, I will.
So you believe in your subordinates.
I hope my boss will be influenced by you, too.
From what you said,
it sounds like your boss is a man of poor caliber.
He sounds like that beast, the wolf, he does!
Don...
Actually, compared to you, he might be a man of poor caliber.
So many people rely on him that he can't rely on his subordinates.
He's pretty ostentatious, and quite a troublesome boss.
I'm so sorry, Akiyoshi!
I ate your book, I did!
Good morning, Don.
Hello!
Oh, you did.
You're quite the eater.
I can't believe I did such a thing...
Don't worry about it.
Getting no dinner yesterday must have been hard.
You are a good person, you are, Akiyoshi.
I hear that a lot.
Oh, you.
So you like books?
I like the smell of books.
You are an odd one, you are.
I like how they taste, I do.
That's even more odd, I'd say.
You work really hard, Don.
I'm going to rack up points and repay you for your book, I am.
Don't worry about it.
Thank you.
It's been pretty fun every day since you got here, Don.
I could say the same, I could.
Akiyoshi.
Even if your boss doesn't believe in you,
and you don't believe in yourself,
I believe in you, I do.
You are part of my family, you are.
They are quite late, they are.
What are Noah, Gabriella, and Lorenzo all doing?
I've been a well-behaved prisoner, I have.
You may be able to get parole first.
I wonder if a don can get parole...
Are you all right, Akiyoshi?
Akiyoshi!
Apparently, 140 degrees isn't hot enough for you!
So this is what you do to a book we lent you from the prison library...
Look at how destroyed it is!
That's not true! I'm the one who—
I'm terribly sorry.
Too late.
I'm already boiling. Come with me.
Wait, you will!
What are you going to do to Akiyoshi?!
I wonder.
I guess you'll find out after the dechlorination.
Akiyoshi!
It's a nice, cool breeze, isn't it?
Wait right there for a while.
What? Do you have a cold? You have a fever, too...
I guess I won't do it today...
Just kidding!
When I get serious, I put out 212 degrees!
You're cold, aren't you? Warm up to your heart's content!
You should sleep out here tonight, and hopefully, you'll die by morning.
Come on, show me your face.
I'll make sure I get it into your mouth.
Soumei-san...
Ow...
And it's cold.
What the hell were you doing with my vessel?!
With the goat gone, he just became an outer shell!
I just wanted to try something new!
The goat has nothing to do with it!
Oh, just admit you're lonely...
All right, we're here.
Everyone ready?
Don! Don!
Soumei-san went for reconnaissance and hasn't come back yet.
I wonder if something happened?
Don! Don!
Shut up.
Don!
We're going to make our descent.
Don!
This isn't good. He's not in good shape at all.
How dare you fight back, Akiyoshi...
Crack
Crack Snap
Crack-a-Lack
It doesn't hurt!
It doesn't hurt at all because of Don power!
All right, we're all good.
Hey. You've got intruders.
What'd you come here f—
You're in my way!
Death to all who block my road to the Don!
Without the Don, we're on the verge of death!
We are comrades!
Everyone loves the Don!
You could cook rice in that...
Hey! Don't ignore me!
It's me, Soumei! Help!
What? Did you forget?
He was the vessel before Yataro. He's your predecessor.
Akiyoshi-san...?
He hasn't aged at all...
Search that guard and get me the key, and his clothes.
It's cold.
I didn't think I'd find Akiyoshi in a place like this.
No wonder I couldn't find him even when I searched all over Japan.
Nacchan, you can look now.
You could have looked this whole time, actually.
I decline.
Jeez, what kind of face is that?
To Yata, he's the one who raised him.
Of course he's happy.
Oh, I guess you're right.
As much as I'd like to give him a reunion hug,
we can't just stand here.
I want to hear what Akiyoshi has to say, so I'm getting out.
Natsuki-chan?
Yes.
Yataro-kun?
Oh, my gosh! You two have grown so much!
You used to be this small!
Do you remember me?
Oh, gosh. This just means I've gotten that much older!
What the heck?
He's like some aunt you haven't seen in years...
You've gotten so much taller, Yataro-kun!
I think you're taller than me now.
Look at you with your glasses! You look so cool now.
Are you all right, Natsuki-chan?
Soumei-san isn't being too demanding, is he?
Sorry, I know he can be a troublesome boss...
Who are you, their mom?!
Soumei-san, when did you...
Even vessels get surprised if you take over
without warning, so don't do that!
Oh, I'm sorry. Habit... Wait, hell with that!
You're going to break out of here with us.
I cannot.
I will remain here.
I haven't finished investigating here yet.
Your body might be here in Alcamone.
It's not here.
You shouldn't be so certain.
Enough!
What do you think would've happened to you if I hadn't shown up?!
Soumei-san!
Like hell I'll leave you here!
This is an order. You're coming with me.
You are troublesome. So quick to bare your fangs.
You should be able to sway
the heart of your subordinate with your charisma.
Come back. I need you.
Yes. That's all you needed to do.
But I'm still not going back.
Are you a demon?!
Akiyoshi-san is such a beast tamer...
Enough! I'm going over there!
We're going to regroup with the goat
and get the hell out of here!
He's going to be mad at you again.
Shut up! Like I care!
Don!
Your Lorenzo is right here! Don!
Shut up! Let me concentrate!
Don!
Don! Don! Don!
I can feel his presence...
The Don is definitely here...
There!
Don!
Let's go, Lorenzo!
Did you really... Did you really need to shoot him?!
Don!
Lorenzo!
Don!
Do not come through! Do not come through!
Just wait a little longer!
We've come to save you.
I'm saved, I am...
Akiyoshi! We need to find Akiyoshi, we do!
He's going back with us, he is!
Akiyoshi? Who is that?
If we take too long, they'll cordon off the island.
There they are!
How dare you infiltrate the island?! We'll stick you in a ce—
Shut the hell up! Can't you see I'm talking here?!
Akiyoshi! Akiyoshi! Where are you?
Hey, Akiyoshi!
Don Valentino.
Take me with you! I'm sure I'll be useful.
Akiyoshi! Akiyoshi! Akiyoshi! Akiyoshi!
Akiyoshi won't be of any use to you!
I would have hidden the book better! The bed was too easy.
How do you know where the book was?
Are you the rat, Thomas?
I will let you out, as you wished.
You who have wronged my family...
It's a fight!
Get 'em!
The family and guards will stay out of this.
Prepare yourself.
My hooves are a bit hard, they are.
Better not underestimate me too much.
On the outside, I was known as Eucalyptus Thomas.
You think I'd be scared of some hooves?
Shut up!
Now you did it!
You, too!
You hit me first!
What the hell...
I totally want to get this on video.
How dare you be so mean to Akiyoshi?!
Shut up, you... you...
So relaxing...
I lost my strength all of a sudden...
You've got a terrible fever!
Hang in there, Soumei-san!
This isn't good...
I'm losing consciousness...
All right, and I'm back!
Why are you suddenly awake?!
Goat... Don! Let's hurry and go home!
Oh, there you are, Akiyoshi!
You're kidding...
Stop it...
Akiyoshi? What's the matter?
Why right now...?
A-Akiyo...
A wolf?!
Yata, switch!
Hold it! Do you plan on shooting us, too?!
If that wolf is a part of your group, yeah.
If he's not, point your guns at the wolf.
Akiyoshi, tell me it isn't so...
You are not a wolf...
You are so kind...
There's no way you could be a terrible wolf...
Akiyoshi...
Crap!
Let's help them!
Get away from Glasses, you wolf!
I'm so sorry! Please forgive me, Akiyoshi-sama!
Please don't eat me!
Don, now's our chance!
Akiyoshi! Akiyoshi!
How dare you...
How dare you deceive me like that?!
I despise...
I despise wolves, I do!
We're going to be left behind!
Wha— But...
Akiyoshi-san...
I'm sorry, Don, Soumei-san.
It's so peaceful.
So peaceful, and all it took was for the goat to be gone.
You sound much better after shedding your skin so many times.
I'm so glad you're back to your usual hair fetish self.
Close! Close! Close! You're hovering too close!
Moron!
What the hell did you come for, ya goat?!
That was a short-lived peace...
Akiyoshi-san! I'll go get your book for you!
You just sit right here.
Looks like Akiyoshi's got himself a minion.
It'll be harder to search now...
Hey! What's all the racket?!
What? Is it time to eat already?
I'm not a rice cooker!
Oh, I guess I didn't put the rice in yet.
Oh well, at least it's peaceful.
Next Time: "The Cuticle Phantom Thief Appears Case" "Evil Organization Expansion Case"
How could...
How could next week be the final episode?!
What the hell?! Keep going, damn it!
We haven't made any more, so we can't.
Oh, I guess you can't, then...
