Sailor Moon Episode Fifty-One
Detention Doldrums
- Serena: Oh, trust me. We're not gonna make it.
- Amy: That's the last time I go to Raye's temple before school. We are so late.
- Lita: That fire reading took forever.
- Serena: GUYS, WAIT UP!
- Serena: Oh, third time I'm late this week! Better think of a really good excuse.
- Miss Haruna: Okay, everyone's here except Serena, right?
- Serena: Hi. Oh, my head. Sorry about that, Miss, uh... H. Oh, I stayed up all night studying, and my eyes got all puffy, and I couldn't see my alarm clock.
- Miss Haruna: Save it, Serena.
- Serena: Oh.
- Miss Haruna: I was just telling the class I'm giving you all a free study period today so you can prepare for your test tomorrow.
- Serena: Oh. That's, uh... nice.
- Miss Haruna: Yes, it is, isn't it? Save on cramming tonight.
- Serena: Huh? Why is she in such a good mood? Must have a hot date tonight.
- Richard: Oh, Patricia, there's a phone call for you.
- Miss Haruna: Thanks, Richard. Yes, this is she. Sure, I'll hold. Oh hi, Robert. Can't wait to see you. I've made reservations at that French place you like so much... You can't make it tonight? Yes. Of course I understand. Sure. Of course. Talk to you soon. MEN!
- First Boy: Boy, I wish we could study outside.
- First Girl: It's gorgeous out there.
- Second Boy: I'm all studied out.
- Second Girl: This is boring.
- Serena: I could've stayed in bed.
- Ann: I need an energy boost.
- Miss Haruna: Everybody sit down this minute and get your books!
- Miss Haruna: Turn to the poem on page sixty-eight I asked you to read for today, and you better be good and ready to answer questions! Since you said you studied so hard last night, Serena, you're first. Serena?
- Serena: Uh, yes, ma'am?
- Miss Haruna: YOU DARE TO EAT IN MY CLASSROOM, YOUNG LADY?! Hoo, you're in big trouble!
- Serena: Uh, I need brain food to study.
- Miss Haruna: No, you need DETENTION!
- Serena: Aw, not again?
- Miss Haruna: Ann, read the first two lines. Out loud, please.
- Ann: Fine. Bumbladin badlabin zois bak mo.
- Miss Haruna: And what kind of poetry is THAT?!
- Ann: That's what they call poetry where I come from. I don't know what this other stuff is.
- Miss Haruna: YOU INSOLENT GIRL! ANN, YOU JUST GOT YOURSELF DETENTION NUMBER TWO!
- Ann: Fine.
- Alan: So you told everybody you were from another planet?
- Ann: No, they just think I was being a class clown.
- Alan: Well, why'd you start blabbing in our native language anyway?
- Ann: I couldn't think.
- Alan: It's your energy.
- Ann: Mm hmm.
- Alan: Don't worry, Ann. I'll get you new energy by this afternoon.
- Ann: Good. Maybe we can try snatching some from Miss H. She's sure got plenty to burn.
- Alan: Not a bad idea, but we need just the right Cardian to do the job, so pick very carefully, my sweet.
- Ann: Okay.
- Serena: Hey Ann, are you up there? Ann? Oh Ann, come on. We've got detention, remember? Now we can't be late...
- Alan: Huh?
- Serena: or Miss H'll double it. Believe me, I speak from experience.
- Ann: Detention? What's that?
- Serena: You don't know? Woah, are you lucky.
- Alan: Ann's got detention... with Serena. I can't drain her, so now I'm gonna have to find someone else.
- Mina: Where's Serena? I thought we were going to her place to watch a video. Huh?
- Raye: Cancelled. She got detention.
- Lita: Well, so... why don't we go catch a movie instead?
- Luna: There's a great one at the Metro. Stars a cat detective.
- Artemis: Yeah, but they might not like feline heroes as much as we do.
- Mina: Ooh, I'm up for some super romantic adventure.
- Lita: Yeah!
- Raye: Oh yeah, I'm in.
- Luna: Oh yuck! I'll hurl if I have to see another one of those gooshy...
- Mina: Be quiet, or no tuna fish for you later. Okay, let's book it!
- Miss Haruna: Okay, I want a five-page essay with a clear beginning, middle, and end. Topic: 'Why School's Important to Me,' and no smart-alec remarks or I'll triple your detention. You got it?
- Office Staff: Telephone, Miss H. A Robert someone?
- Miss Haruna: Oh, I'll be right there. Keep at it, girls. I won't be gone long.
- Miss Haruna: Yeah, is that you, Robert? You CAN make it?! Oh, that's absolutely the greatest! Of course I can meet you. Fifteen minutes? No problem. Can't wait to see ya. Hey, all right. No boring paper grading for me tonight.
- Serena: Oh! I can't believe she bailed on us. Well, I'm not staying here, either. I'll just take all this stuff home right now and finish in front of the TV.
- Ann: What? With Darien?
- Serena: No. Why?
- Ann: Serena, we both know Darien walks home from classes this time each day.
- Serena: What? Have you been spying on him now? You better not be because Darien won't like it one bit.
- Ann: Gimme a break, Serena. I've seen you hiding in the bushes waiting to trip into him.
- Serena: Back off.
- Ann: All right. Let's settle this once and for all, okay? Loser has to stop trying to snag Darien. First one done with the essay gets to keep him. Y'on?
- Serena: Yeah, you bet I'm on!
- Alien Alan: Cardian Insectia, I summon you!
- Insectia: Insectia! I'm here!
- Alien Alan: Took long enough. Now, listen carefully, Insectia. I want energy. That's Darien, the dweeb Ann likes so much. So Ann needs energy. Why not take some from him? Cardian, I want you to go to the schools and gather energy, but on your way, get that guy down on the street and zap him totally dry.
- Insectia: I'm on it, fella.
- Alien Alan: Wo-oah!
- Insectia: See ya.
- Alien Alan: What a clumsy fool. Strange Cardian.
- Ann: *thinking* I'm losin' it here. I need energy right now. What could be taking Alan so long? I'm so weak, I can barely think. Maybe I could tap Serena's energy.
- Serena: What's important about school?
- Ann: *thinking* She's no Einstein, but she's been slating on that essay, so maybe her brain's at its maximum output. I'll just take enough to last a couple o' days.
- Teacher: All right, class. You've got one hour to finish the exam.
- Students: What is that?
- Amy: It's a Cardian!
- Insectia: I want your energy!
- Boy: Did you guys see that?
- Amy: I've got to get the Scouts on this right away.
- Mina: We hear you, Amy. Go ahead.
- Lita: Hey, what's wrong?
- Amy: Some wacko Cardian just crashed my computer class and zapped two kids.
- Mina: Punch in its escape route, and we'll try and track it down.
- Lita: Raye, come on. We gotta go.
- Raye: Hmm. Just when it's getting really good.
- Luna: Finally. I hate this romantic mush.
- Mina: Oh, the train scene. This is so sad, and he's so hunky.
- Artemis: Mina, move it.
- Serena: Ooh, why else do I like school?! Oh, I know: to see my friends. Hey, huh? Don't tell me you're finished, Ann.
- Ann: Almost. Ha ha ha. Just needed to stretch out those writing cramps.
- Insectia: Insectia!
- Alien Alan: Hold on a second. You didn't get that guy, Darien. Huh?
- Insectia: So what?
- Alien Alan: Maybe the Sailor Scouts got to her. She hasn't listened to a single thing I've told her. I hate those Scouts!
- Alien Ann: *thinking* This time, there's no escape. *talking* OW!
- Serena: Huh? Ann, are you all right? Looking over my shoulder? Ann, I can't believe you'd cheat like that.
- Ann: *thinking* Hmph, only if I wanna fail for sure. Now, how am I gonna get her energy?
- Serena: Hmm, that's a first. Someone actually tried to copy MY paper.
- Miss Haruna: Oh Robert, it's beautiful here. I just hope it doesn't rain 'cause this is all so perfect. You wanna go for a carriage ride after dinner?
- Insectia: You're mine!
- Miss Haruna: AAAH!
- Alien Alan: There you are. I want you to do exactly what I say, hear me? Get that guy Darien. That's an order! Oh no. Not the ducks. What's wrong with you, Insectia? I want that guy.
- Sailor Mercury: Well, you won't get him.
- Alien Alan: Huh?
- Sailor Venus: Tough luck! Your plans just went on ice!
- Sailor Mars: Make one false move and you'll be eating flames, pal!
- Sailor Jupiter: You and that overgrown insect are heading back where you came from!
- Sailor Mercury: That's right. The sooner the better!
- Sailor Scouts: We're the Sailor Scouts, and we're gonna stop ya!
- Alien Alan: Still singing out that same ol' tune, are ya? Well, I think it's way past time we shut you guys up.
- Insectia: I'm outta here!
- Alien Alan: Huh?
- Insectia: Bye now!
- Alien Alan: I'll be back.
- Sailor Mars: Hey, guys, was that weird or what?
- Sailor Venus: Yeah, he had no control over her.
- Serena: Ha HA! Finally, the last page. Ann, I'm gonna be outta here in no time.
- Ann: Fine. Write your brains out.
- Serena: Cool. Darien's mine.
- Ann: I should've whizzed through this stuff, but I'm so tired I can't even remember what the essay topic was.
- Serena: Hey, Ann, are you okay? She's not even blinking. Maybe I should see if the nurse is still here.
- Ann: No, I'm fine, Serena. Just thinking how nice it's been to spend time with you.
- Serena: Huh? Uh, I was just thinking the same thing.
- Ann: You were?
- Serena: Oh yeah. You can't judge a book by its cover, right? And to be honest, I used to think you were a real shrew.
- Ann: *thinking* That's weird. Every time someone's nice to me, I feel so much better. I keep seeing the Doom Tree growing strong and healthy.
- Serena: You sure you're okay?
- Ann: Yes, I'm fine, but why did you change your mind, huh?
- Serena: I don't know, but maybe it's 'cause Alan's such a cool guy, and it's worth giving you a chance, too.
- Ann: Yeah, Alan and I are really close. You know, sometimes, it's like we can read each other's minds. Do you think friends can do that, too?
- Serena: Sounds pretty weird. Give it a try. Read my mind.
- Ann: Oh, okay. *thinking* First, I'll take some of that energy.
- Serena: Oh, I feel weak.
- Serena & Ann: Huh?
- Serena: *thinking* That looked like a Cardian.
- Ann: Alan?
- Alien Alan: Huh? *telepathic* That Cardian's totally outta control. She won't listen to me.
- Alien Ann: *telepathic* I can fight her. I just gotta get some energy from Serena.
- Alien Alan: Let's get outta here.
- Serena: Huh?
- Sailor Mars: Time to say goodnight, bug-breath. MARS FIRE IGNITE!
- Sailor Jupiter: JUPITER THUNDER CRUSH!
- Sailor Venus: VENUS CRESCENT BEAM SMASH!
- Sailor Mercury: MERCURY BUBBLES BLAST!
- Insectia: I'm... gonna sting you ALL!
- Luna: We have to stop this. I've gotta find Sailor Moon.
- Artemis: Whaddya know? Look!
- Luna: That girl. Why hasn't she transformed yet?
- Alien Alan: Might as well let her go at it for a while.
- Alien Ann: Yeah. If she can get rid of those Sailor Scouts, she'd be doing us a favor.
- Alien Alan: They're such a nuisance.
- Serena: Hang in there, girls.
- Luna: Serena, what're you doing up here watching?!
- Serena: Well, I'm kind of tired, Luna.
- Luna: Serena! They need you!
- Serena: Fine. I'll nap later. MOON CRYSTAL POWER! Hi, guys.
- Sailor Mars: About time.
- Sailor Moon: Just thought I'd let you guys have some fun with ol' beetle-brain, Mars. Let's call a truce. I'm too exhausted.
- Luna: What are you talking about?!
- Sailor Moon: I don't have the energy to zap her.
- Moonlight Knight: Sailor Moon's had some of her energy drained away, and that's why she doesn't feel she has the strength to fight right now, Sailor Scouts.
- Sailor Scouts: Moonlight Knight, you're here!
- Moonlight Knight: Sailor Moon, believe you have the power!
- Sailor Moon: Right. MOON SCEPTER ELIMINATION!
- Insectia: AAAH! I'M DONE FOR...
- Sailor Scouts: Dusted!
- Moonlight Knight: Keep up the good work, Sailor Scouts. See ya 'round.
- Sailor Moon: Gotta go, guys. I've still got an essay to finish. Miss H is gonna love it.
- Other Scouts: Huh?
- Sailor Jupiter: Think she burned out some brain cells?
- Sailor Venus: If the Moonlight Knight's right, we should watch her.
- Sailor Mercury: Maybe she just needs some food.
- Sailor Mars: Whaddya say we all grab a burger?
- Alien Ann: They whipped us again, Alan.
- Alien Alan: One of these days, we'll beat 'em.
- Alien Ann: Maybe the only way to beat 'em's on our own turf. At least we'd be conserving energy instead of wasting it.
- Alien Alan: It's worth a try. The Doom Tree can't last much longer if they keep getting in our way.
- Serena: Yes! All finished! Ha HA!
- Ann: Yeah, me too.
- Serena: Huh? No way! You serious?
- Ann: Guess we'll call it a draw, eh, Serena? So we both can keep chasing after Darien if we want.
- Lita: Hey, Serena, are you ready to go?
- Amy: We're going for burgers.
- Serena: Food, yeah. You wanna come? We know this fabulous place.
- Ann: Hey, no thanks. Gotta hit the books if I wanna pass that test tomorrow.
- Serena: Oh, that's right. Well, I'll cram before school. See ya.
- Ann: Thanks for the energy, Serena.
