Sailor Moon Episode Fifty-Six
Sailor Mercury Moving On?
- Rini: Oh, that must be the new ice cream parlor everybody's talking about. It looks so yummy. Mmm, mint chip. I want some. Wait a minute. I'm acting like a total kid, slobbering over ice cream. I gotta keep my mind on the Silver Crystal.
- Amy: Hey Rini, where are you going? Ice cream shop?
- Rini: No, just home.
- Amy: Wow, you've got a lot of discipline.
- Rini: I try.
- Amy: I've heard their ice cream is really delicious, but I'd like some company.
- Rini: Don't look at me. I hate sweets.
- Amy: Come on. Everybody loves ice cream, Rini. If you don't mind hanging out with an old junior high girl like me, I'll buy you a double. What do you say? My treat.
- Rini: Oh, all right, but only because you wanted some company. Let's go. Last one there's a rotten peach. Come on. Hurry.
- Amy: Okay.
- Rini: I'll stand in line for you.
- Serena: Hey Raye, why so bummed?
- Raye: We just found out Amy was accepted to study in Germany.
- Mina: Yeah, our little genius totally aced her Study Abroad Scholarship test.
- Lita: They said she can choose any school she wants; even start her pre-med training.
- Artemis: So when does she leave?
- Raye: Not for a few weeks, I guess.
- Luna: Wow, studying abroad sounds exciting.
- Lita: Yeah, but I bet it'll be hard for her being away from all her friends and so far from home. She's so sweet. Her friends mean a lot to her.
- Serena: We can't just let her go. Don't you see? She's the brains behind the Sailor Scouts. Come on. We'll be totally lost without her, you guys.
- Raye: Serena, do you always have to be so selfish? I mean, think about Amy.
- Mina: Yeah, she's gonna need all the support we can give her, Serena. Besides, we can't always depend on Amy. You've got a perfectly good brain, too.
- Luna: You know, I think I understand, Serena. You're just afraid 'cause one of your best friends is going away.
- Serena: Yeah, you're right. I guess I should be happy for Amy, shoudln't I?
- Mina: Hey, I say we plan a humongous going-away party. Who wants to be in charge?
- Amy: Well, time to hit the books. This was fun, Rini. It was nice getting to know you better.
- Rini: Bye bye, Amy. Thanks for the ice cream. Wow, she's smart. *thinking* Hey, maybe she's got the Silver Crystal. No one would be dumb enough to give it to Serena.
- Artemis: So here are some new power tools for you girls. You each get a Power Stick and a wrist communicator.
- Luna: I think you'll like them. They're ten times more powerful than the old ones.
- Serena: But what are we gonna do with Sailor Mercury's stuff?
- Rubeus: Crystal Tokyo, a thousand years in the future, and soon to be under my control.
- Bertie: You called?
- Rubeus: I located the first of the five Star Points of Crystal Tokyo. Go make it a stronghold for the Negamoon. Once we control all five points, Crystal Tokyo will be ours!
- Rini: Amy.
- Amy: Huh? Rini, what are you doing here? Did you come with Serena?
- Rini: No, but I need to ask you a favor, Amy. Can I come over and stay at your house one of these nights?
- Amy: What's the matter? Aren't you and Serena getting along, Rini?
- Rini: Oh no, it's nothing like that. You see, she's got a huge test coming up and... I don't want to bother her. You know how easily she can get distracted.
- Amy: I've been there. I think I can help you out, and you'll probably get a better night's sleep away from Serena the Hyena. Come on. Let's go.
- Rini: Oh, thanks, Amy. *thinking* Now for sure I'll get that crystal.
- Amy: Rini, why don't you just go to bed?
- Rini: But... I wanna finish this.
- Amy: Go to bed, Rini. You can finish reading it in the morning.
- Rini: Hmm... *thinking* If she doesn't go to bed soon, I'll never get a chance to search through her stuff. *talking* Hey, aren't you tired?
- Amy: Nope, not at all. I always study best at night. I'm a night owl. I guess I forgot how little you are sometimes, Rini. Go on. Go to bed if you like.
- Rini: Are you gonna come too?
- Amy: You know, you're exactly like me when I was little: curious. I always wanted to stay up way too late with my parents. Sometimes, my mom would give in and let me sleep in her lap while she read. She's a pediatrician, and that's what I want to be, too.
- Rini: Yeah, over in Germany, right?
- Amy: Pretty soon, I'll be packing my bags. Wow, my first trip abroad.
- Rini: Won't you be lonely? It's so far.
- Amy: Mm hmm. I know. That's the only bummer about studying abroad, you know? I've never been so far away before.
- Rini: *thinking* I better find that crystal soon.
- Serena: Amy, please stay.
- Dream Amy: It's my one chance.
- Serena: No it isn't. Oh, you're so smart, they'll take you anytime.
- Dream Amy: I'm going. You've got to get used to that.
- Serena: But I'll miss you.
- Dream Amy: Well, I'm not going to put my dreams on hold for you.
- Serena: Well, can't you study here?
- Dream Amy: No, Serena. I'm starting a new life. I'm going to have all new friends. It's going to be wonderful.
- Dream Darien: Hi, Serena.
- Serena: Oh. Hi, muffin.
- Dream Darien: Don't call me that. It's over between us.
- Serena: Wait. Where are you going?
- Dream Amy: Far away, Serena.
- Dream Darien: Far away from you.
- Serena: No! Don't go! Don't leave me here...
- Bertie: The first Crystal Point's an ice cream store? How amusing. Frostie, you here yet?
- Frostie: Sorry I'm late.
- Bertie: Fashionably late, the best kind. Are you ready? We need quick work on this dump. Ha ha ha ha. That's fabulous. Ice crysyals for the first Crystal Point, and tomorrow, we'll have all new flavors.
- Serena: Hey guys, what's the buzz?
- Amy: Same ol' same ol'.
- Serena: What? Did you guys stay up all night yakking?
- Amy: Uh unn. Rini, you can come back anytime, okay?
- Rini: Thanks. *thinking* Ah, what's a little lost sleep if I can get my hands on that Silver Crystal.
- Amy: You want to give me a farewell party? No way. It'll be way too much trouble.
- Serena: There's totally no way we're letting you take off on us without a fabou party, Amy.
- Amy: But all my friends and family will be there. It'll make me sad. I won't want to leave.
- Serena: Amy, it'll just be like going away to summer camp the first time. You miss everyone the first week, and then it's a blast. Come on. It'll be fun, and think of all the loot you'll get.
- Amy: Please call it off.
- Serena: But Ames, I'm using it as an excuse to buy a new party dress.
- Raye: Whaddya mean we're not giving Amy a goodbye party?
- Lita: What happened, Serena? Forget to send out the invitations? Did you mess up again?
- Serena: Uh unn. Amy doesn't wanna do it.
- Memory Amy: You see, I really do want to be a doctor and take care of little kids, but leaving my friends is a big deal for me, and if you give this big party, I'm afraid I'll lose my nerve. It's already going to be hard enough to say goodbye.
- Raye: Wow, I never thought of it that way. Poor Amy. What a tough decision.
- Lita: Well, what if we just get everybody to take her to the airport, then?
- Mina: Yeah, that shouldn't be so bad, and if she starts to change her mind, we just pack her on the plane.
- Lita: Yeah, she'll love that.
- Raye: I think it's a good idea.
- Serena: I think it's a GREAT idea.
- Girls: All right! We got us a plan!
- Frostie: Two for one special today. We're practically giving it away. Come on. We've got the best ice cream in town.
- Matt: Here, Sara.
- Sara: Thanks, Matt. How about going to the park and renting one of those rowboats?
- Matt: On second thought, I'm kind of busy.
- Sara: So am I, pal. Take a hike.
- Matt: Yeah, see ya around, okay?
- Sara: If you're lucky.
- Artemis: Was that weird or what?
- Frostie: Get your ice cream, folks. We've got some great new flavors. Get 'em while they're cold.
- Bertie: So how's business today, Frostie?
- Frostie: Cool.
- Bertie: Whatever sales pitch you're using, it's a winner, but don't overdo it on the first day, okay? We don't know how much storage we have.
- Frostie: That's no problem. I checked it out. There's a huge cellar big enough to hold every single customer.
- Bertie: And the new flavors are working as expected?
- Frostie: Yep, just a few licks and they're ours.
- Bertie: Excellent. So why don't you show me where we'll put them?
- Frostie: Who's there?
- Artemis: Meow
- Bertie: Look, what a pretty cat. We must've startled the little fella, hmm? Come here, cutey. Know whose cat this is?
- Frostie: 'Course, and I know exactly what to do with him... put him on ice! Coming right up: one kitty popsicle.
- Bertie: The Scouts come a lookin', and Rini'll finally be ours.
- Raye: O Great Fire, we call upon you to tell us how to find Artemis. Please, Great Fire. He's in trouble. Tell us NOW! I really think Artemis is in bad trouble. The fire can't even get a reading on him.
- Mina: Artemis...
- Lita: Didn't he mention that new ice cream shop?
- Serena: I know. Let's call up Amy. She can put a quick trace on Artemis with her computer... Whoops. I forgot.
- Raye: Forgot what?
- Serena: I'm supposed to use my own brain from now on, right? Not my strong suit, guys, but I'll give it my best shot.
- Raye: Yeah, that's the spirit.
- Amy: There. That ought to do it.
- Rini: Why are you packing now? Your plane doesn't leave for two weeks.
- Amy: No it doesn't.
- Rini: Oh, I get it. You told your friends the wrong flight date. That way, they can't come wish you goodbye, and you won't be sad.
- Amy: I should have known a smart little girl like you would figure it out. You'll say goodbye for me?
- Rini: Sure. *thinking* I guess she really DOESN'T have the crystal 'cause she wouldn't leave town with it.
- Luna: Artemis was onto something. I sense major bad vibes here.
- Mina: Mm hmm.
- Luna: He could be trapped. We'll go check it out as soon as the crowd thins out a little bit. Okay?
- Mina: Got it. *thinking* If they've got you, Artemis, I promise, I'll set you free.
- Bertie: How'd we do, Frostie?
- Frostie: Oh, I think you'll be very pleased with today's results.
- Bertie: So everyone who ate our ice cream is now under your spell. Excellent work, Frostie. I'll remember that in the future.
- Frostie: Oh, why thank you, Bertie.
- Bertie: And when we've captured all five Star Points, and Crystal Tokyo is ours, I'll be Queen.
- Frostie: Hmm, I look forward to serving you, Bertie.
- Bertie: Excellent. I won't forget you, and every time there's an outfit I'm tired of, you'll get to wear it.
- Frostie: Would you like to see our prisoners now?
- Bertie: Nah, manicure time.
- Mina: What's the story here, snowcone-head?
- Frostie: Who's there?
- Mina: Now I know what you're up to down here. I've seen your collection of human ice cubes, okay? Now who are you?
- Frostie: Look, you little snoop, my feet are killing me. I've had a hard day, so I'm putting you... on ice!
- Mina: Luna!
- Serena: Next bus should be the one that goes to Amy's house.
- Lita: I'm worried about Mina and Luna.
- Raye: They should've been back by now.
- Mina: Hey guys, I need Sailor Scouts big time, on the double!
- Raye: You got it!
- Serena: You guys go on while I drop off Amy's gift at her place, and I'll do my very best to talk her into staying.
- Rini: You'd just be wasting your time.
- Serena: What do you mean?
- Rini: She's on her way to the airport. She leaves today.
- Serena: Are you serious?
- Darien: I'll take it.
- Serena: Darien!
- Darien: Go on. Mina needs you.
- Serena: Oh, uh, right.
- Darien: Rini, you coming?
- Rini: You betcha.
- Serena: Bye, guys.
- Raye: Can we go now?
- Frostie: Where are you? It's no use hiding.
- Sailor Venus: Why don't you come and get me?
- Frostie: Fine.
- Sailor Venus: Oops. Froze the whipping cream. Up here, blizzard-breath.
- Frostie: The Sailor Scouts!
- Sailor Moon: That's right. I'm Sailor Moon, enemy of all that's evil. Sworn to fight for a peaceful future, we are the Sailor Scouts. We will right wrongs and triumph over evil, and that means you.
(Amy arrives at the airport)
(Darien and Rini are still driving)
- Sailor Moon: Ooh, it's freezing!
- Sailor Venus: This is way colder than when we fought Queen Beryl.
- Sailor Mars: Try not to think about it.
- Amy: Huh? Rini. Darien. What are you doing here?
- Rini: KITTY POWER! Make a gift for Amy. Don't forget me, okay?
- Amy: Thank you.
- Darien: This one's from Serena and the girls.
- Amy: They shouldn't have.
- Rini: Go on. Open it. You know, I told them you were leaving, but they wouldn't come. Not very good friends.
- Amy: What do you mean?
- Rini: Well, if they were such good friends, wouldn't they be here to say goodbye? Some friends. And that puny gift. Probably something cheesy from the drug store.
- Amy: No. I'm glad they're not here. It'd be too sad.
- Rini: But you'll be gone for a long time. Who knows when you'll see each other again.
- Amy: We can talk on the Internet, and there's always holidays.
- Rini: But we'll still miss you.
- Amy: And I'll miss you guys, too, Rini, but it's just better this way.
- Rini: Well, hurry up and open it. You're gonna miss your flight if we keep on yakkin'.
- Amy: 'To Amy, You'll always be one of us. We wish you the best. Love, your friends.' Oh Darien, I can't. Can you give me a ride back, please? I can't do this. Hey... there's plenty of time to become a doctor. I'll just re-apply in a couple of years from now, when I'm really ready to do this. Right now, I want to be here with my friends.
- Sailor Jupiter: We've gotta try to do something here, you guys.
- Sailor Mars: I can barely feel anything.
- Darien: I think the girls might be on a mission, Amy.
- Amy: I know the Sailor Scouts are in trouble. I can feel it. They need me.
- Frostie: I want Rini! Where is she? You know it's Rini I want, Sailor Scouts! Hand her over NOW, 'cause you know I'm not letting you go until I get that kid. Come on. Where is she?!
(Hurry up Amy!)
- Frostie: Fine. Be stubborn.
- Amy: I can't believe I almost got on that plane. What was I thinking?! I can't leave the Sailor Scouts. I'm part of the team. I'm Sailor Mercury. I just hope I'm not too late. MERCURY STAR POWER!
- Sailor Mercury: Hold it, slush-brain!
- Frostie: And who might you be?
- Sailor Scouts: IT'S SAILOR MERCURY!
- Sailor Mercury: MERCURY ICE STORM BLAST!
- Sailor Moon: Are we glad to see you!
- Sailor Mercury: Better take care of her quick!
- Sailor Moon: I sure will. MOON SCEPTER ELIMINATION!
- Artemis: Luna!
- Luna: Artemis!
- Sailor Jupiter: Sailor Mercury, we thought you were gone!
- Sailor Mercury: I could never leave you guys when you need me. We Sailor Scouts gotta stick together, right? Hey, and thanks for the presents. Came in real handy.
- Rini: Amy's not mad they didn't see her off. I don't get it, Darien.
- Darien: It's okay. Ha ha ha. You'll understand one day.
- Serena: You're sure you're okay about not going to Germany?
- Amy: Yes. I realized I really wasn't ready to go yet. Someday, I'll get my chance to study abroad, but right now, I just want to be home.
- Serena: Maybe we can go to Germany together.
- Luna: I bet you couldn't even find it on a map.
- Serena: Hey, I'll look it up, smarty-pants... or should I say, smarty-CAT?
