Episode 23: The Solar Tower
Lepka
Wake up doctor!
Are you scared?
Then yell!
If you yell only once, then I'll give the order to spread the net.
Ask for help, doctor.
Lana
Conan, Conan.
I can't stand it anymore.
Conan.
Conan
Lana! Hang on!
Lana! I'm coming now!
Lana
Conan!
Conan
Lana, look down!
Lana
Down?
Oh, the shutter is opening!
Thank God.
Conan
Lana!
Lepka
What?! Why is the shutter opening?!
Man
What? The control room has been attacked?
Yes, it's a surprise attack.
Dyce
Hello, this is Dyce.
Yes, the control room is now under our control.
The Committee members are opening the shutters now.
And could you tell Lepka that. . .
WE'RE COMING TO GET YOU NOW!
Luke
Save the doctor!
Defeat Lepka!
Lepka
Defend to the death!
Let no one in!
Man
But there are too many!
Gya----
Lepka
Hey, what's up? Hey!
Answer me.
Shit! Scum.
Block the passage.
Let nobody in this room!
Withdraw Lana.
Man
Chief! Conan is coming from here!
Lepka
What?!
Use the gun emplacements and kill him!
Man
Then what about withdrawing Lana?
Lepka
I'll do it. Go!
Man
Roger!
Oh! He's sticking!
Shake off!
Conan
Lana!
I'll fall!
Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh--------
Man
We did it!
He fell!
No, he's on the rear!
Retract us!
Don't let him go!
The door below has been broken.
We can't keep defending.
Conan
Doctor.
Lana.
It's the Flying Machine!
Wait!
Lepka
Damn!
If... you... come... any... closer... I will blow off her head.
Lana
Conan!
Conan
Lana!
Lepka
Don't move!
Go back and tell those scums. . .
. . . that you can't win yet.
Without her Lao is just a helpless cripple.
It'll be impossible to revive the solar energy or escape from here.
Lana
Conan, my grandpa is blind and deaf now because of Lepka.
Lepka
Don't move!
Now Lana is Dr. Lao's eyes and ears.
If you want his eyes and ears back tell the scums to surrender.
Get on!
Don't move. This trigger has a feather-touch.
Good-bye boy.
Lana
Conan.
Lepka
He is a smart boy.
Lana
Conan!
Conan
I did it!
Lana, open the top!
Lana
Yes.
Lepka
Nooo, I'm falling!
Conan
Lana.
Jimsy!
Jimsy
Conan!
Dyce
Lana-dear!
Conan
We jump, okay?
Lana
Yes.
Dyce
Okay, come on.
Conan
We did it!
Jimsy
Conan.
Dyce
Lana-dear.
Lana
Thank God.
Thank you all.
Dyce
Thank God.
Lana
Thank you Captain-sir, Jimsy.
Monsley
Conan, are you all right?
Conan
Dr. Lao is safe now too.
Monsley
Thank you.
Dyce
By the way, where is Lepka?
Where is that bastard?
Conan
He's still in there.
Jimsy
Well, well, now I can go back to see "Look Delicious".
Lana
My grandpa.
Conan
Yes.
Captain, please take care of Miss Monsley.
Dyce
Miss Monsley?
Conan
Take her to see the medical doctor.
Lana
Please!
Dyce
Hey, wait. I'll go too!
Hey, Monsley!
Miss Monsley?
No, she's passed out!
Hospital! Hospital!
Doctor, doctor!
What can I do?
Lana
Grandpa.
Grandpa, please wake up.
My grandpa.
Everyone is here now.
Grandpa, Lepka is gone.
Lao
I see. Lana, sorry for your hardship.
Lana
No, no problem at all grandpa.
Dyce
Hello. It's me Dyce.
How are you?
Monsley
The bullet went through, so it's not so serious.
Dyce
Oh really, how good.
So you still have the devil's luck.
Monsley
I guess so.
Dyce
Well, I just came to have lunch with you.
By the way, it is terrible!
A little while ago we checked the food stores and they are almost empty.
Monsley
I'm sorry that I can't help out in such a hard time.
Are you busy?
Dyce
That's the point. We are extremely busy preparing to escape and so on.
Monsley
How is the doctor?
Is he so bad?
Dyce
Yes, now Lana-dear is with him all day and translates for him.
Because telepathy is the only way to communicate with him.
Even though he's leading the old men of the committee and trying to revive the solar energy.
He is really a great man.
Well, I'll come again.
Solar energy might revive tonight if all goes well.
Monsley
Oh, finally?
Dyce
Yes, As soon as we get energy, I'll go to the salvage ship with Conan's group and salvage the ship for escaping.
Monsley
I see. Anyway, you are the best man about ships. You'll do good.
Dyce
The sea is my life.
The day I'll go on the sea again is near.
I'll head to the green island of High Harbor and. . .
So, see you.
Monsley
Are you okay Dyce?
Dyce
Well, maybe I'm tired by the hard work.
So, I'll come again. See you.
Monsley
What's wrong?
Dyce
Monsley. I. . .
I think you're so beautiful!
Monsley
Idiot!
Jimsy
Is that true that a star will come?
Dyce
Yes it will. Since Dr. Lao said so, it must come.
Jimsy
How big is the star?
Is that like thi-------s big?
Dyce
Idiot. If it were so huge, we'd be wiped out!
Jimsy
I see. So it should be like this?
Dyce
Well, maybe like this.
Jimsy
And where it's gonna land?
Dyce
Well, it depends on the time.
Just wait and keep watching! Then you'll see!
Scientist
It's amazing. It is as exactly where the data the Doctor gave us said.
Coordinates matched.
Lao
Lana, look into the three dimensional radar.
Lana
Yes.
Lao
Soon it will appear.
Lana
I can see it. A small point is coming slowly.
Everyone, now we can see it.
Scientist
Oh, I can see it.
Finally it comes.
Yes, there it is.
Conan
It has come!
Jimsy
What? Where?
People
It has come!
It's coming!
Jimsy
It has stopped.
Dyce
What a remarkable thing!
Conan
No wonder Lepka wanted this so badly.
Jimsy
I missed seeing the star!
How large was it?
Dyce
Well, it was about this size.
Luke
Everyone, let us start preparations to escape as we've planned.
Before this place sinks, let's salvage the ship and gather any necessary stuff and start a new life!
People
Yes, we will.
Let's do it!
Scientist
Dr. Lao, Lana, we have no words to express our gratitude.
Now we can prepare for a new life.
Anyway, it is amazing power. Within one hour, we have produced more energy than we used to produce in one year.
Now truly, we know that we are dependant on the old scientific heritage, but the solar energy -- our control is tenuous. . .
and if Lepka should get it. . .
Lao
That is the uncontrollable monster.
This energy almost destroyed the world. . .
and I am a member of the scientific group that created this energy.
The super-magnetic weapons that sank five continents killed several billion people, . . .
exterminated millions of species of animals and plants, could not have been invented without the solar energy.
My guilt is not expiated.
Lana
No, grandpa has already paid for it!
You have saved many a person's life.
Lao
Lana, I am still guilty.
Lana
No, you are great.
You are my important grandpa.
Scientist
Lana, seems like Dr. Lao is very tired.
We'll take care of the rest of things.
Lao
The Solar Tower will automatically self-destruct after storing enough energy.
Scientist
Yes, we know.
Jimsy
Why are the stairs moving?
Conan
I don't know!
Jimsy
Wow, even passages are moving!
Conan
Let's go.
Jimsy
I didn't know the solar energy is such tiring stuff.
Conan
I see, we can use that one.
Jimsy
Wow, it's funny.
It's comfortable.
Lana
Conan.
Conan
Lana.
Lana
I was going to look for you.
Conan
I see. Me too.
Dr. Lao, don't you have to rest?
Lana
Before that, he really wants to show us something.
Conan
I see.
Jimsy
Lana---!
Ouch!
Conan
Look where you're going!
Jimsy
Conan, hey wait!
Oh, I see, this side.
Lana
Conan, this way.
Jimsy
I hate this.
Conan
This way is better.
Lana?
Lana
Here!
Jimsy
What is this?
Conan
It's empty.
Lao
This is the Triangle Tower's park.
Lana
A park?
Conan
It's sky!
Jimsy
Hey, look at the floor.
It's magic!
I know it!
Lao
Children, touch anything you can see there.
Conan
Lana.
Lana
Conan.
Lao
Lana, Lana. I'm sorry. I had no intention to scare you.
Everyone please come here.
I brought you to this place to show you such things because I want you to know the truth of the Triangle Tower.
Conan
Truth?
Lao
Anything that appears here is merely an illusion.
Look.
This tower was built as a masterpiece of 21st century science.
People thought they could create anything for a human's need by solar energy...
but everything was foolish illusion.
Like the view of this park.
They played with the energy and caused the war and the disasters.
The scientists who created this are all dead now.
This tower will sink after it finished its final job. It is the most correct way.
By the benevolence of the bright sun, lands and oceans grow life, . . .
and humans are only able to live in that kind of environment.
Conan and Jimsy.
Conan
Yes, Dr. Lao.
Lao
Your lively looks will remain in my memory.
You are the ones that the sun and nature grow.
Dyce
Oh, here they are!
Hey, Conan, Jimsy!
Conan
Captain!
Dyce
What're you doing!
You have to hurry. The boat for the for the salvage ship leaves soon!
Conan
I see. Lana, please take care of Dr. Lao.
Lana
Yes, see you later!
Dyce
Lana-dear, see you soon!
Hurry up!
Jimsy
A--again?!
Dyce
Hurry up!
Conan
Jimsy!
Jimsy
Wait!
