Episode 70

Come see duckies dancing and men flying on a high trapeze! A dazzling fantasy! We debut tonight to take you to a world of wonders! Come on, old man! Biodegradable Refuse Hey, hey, if you can't do better than this.
.
.
you've still got a long way to go! Give me your dinner tonight and I'll let you go.
Forget it! Hey! Cans should be recycled! I learned a lot from today's practice.
See ya later, Pop.
That was magnificent! You've gotten so good! Weep for joy, Ranma! Weep for your success! Enough, already! Let's get home for dinner.
Tricked you! I knew this was comin'! Look, a hundred yen! Look, there's FIVE hundred! There is?! Stupid! - You tricked me, Ranma.
- You started it, cheater.
What kind of attitude is that?! Get off ! Ranma, that's my seat, you know.
You two! Why not make up, already? That's up to Ranma.
- Pop has to apologize first.
- What?! That's what! Excuse me.
Mr.
Saotome, someone to see you.
- Me? - Probably a debt-collector.
I wouldn't doubt it.
No, it's a pretty lady.
No!! It's got to be a mistake! Say it isn't so, Kasumi! No woman would be calling on Saotome! No way! So you do get jealous sometimes, Dad? What's all that bowing nonsense? He should be more forceful! It's frustrating! If he's a man, he should grab her--! Lech! That's unacceptable! But this is so sudden-- Ranma, sweetie! I must speak to you--! "Sweetie, " she says! I don't know her! W-Wait! Ranma doesn't know anything.
You'll only confuse him needlessly--! Let me see him just once! Let's take more time to discuss this.
Ranma, sweetie! No--! Ranma, I'm going out for a while! Look after things! Ranma!! Pop--! Something's going on between those two.
So she's finally come.
It happened when Genma was a young man.
Genma, Soun and I.
.
.
were on a trip to perfect our martial arts skills.
Genma fell in love with a certain girl.
Her name was Sakura.
Soon she gave birth to a beautiful baby.
How happy they all were! Was Ranma that baby?! However-- The girl's angry parents tore the lovers apart.
Genma returned to the road.
Praying for Sakura's happiness, he took the baby and left.
Call it youthful ardor, if you will.
It's a heartbreaking story nevertheless.
That's the first I've ever heard of it.
I never heard about it, either.
Mr.
Saotome probably wanted to spare Ranma's feelings.
Whaddya talkin' about! I don't care about it! What a lover Pop was! Right, Akane? Moron! So his mother's come back for Ranma? She must have been searching for Mr.
Saotome and Ranma.
They say the girl turned down all marriage proposals.
.
.
and remained true to Saotome.
So if Saotome knows--? The three of them can be one big, happy family.
Isn't that wonderful? Congratulations! You're the luckiest boy in the world! Be happy, Ranma! - This is so sudden--! - Don't be bashful.
Ranma, go to your dear mother.
Hey, Akane! Wait up! Let's go see this great movie that's playing.
Hey! That was an invitation! You're so uncute! But your mother might be coming for you.
If she does-- So what happens if she does? This happens, Ranma Saotome.
I heard about it.
You're so afraid of me, Kuno Tatewaki.
.
.
that you're trying to flee somewhere.
Not me! I'll never let you escape! Our fight hasn't been settled yet! Ryoga! I don't let MY enemies escape, either! Whaddya talkin' about?! Okay, I'll fight all of ya! Ranma! Ranma-honey, are you really going away with your mother? Your mother is same my mother.
I must greet her.
Only right.
You girls-- Take me with you, even to the ends of the earth! Kodachi! Let go! Silence! You should know the pain I'm feeling! - Idiot! Ranma-honey's MY fiance! - Not so! He MY Ranma! Akane, save me--! Really? You look happier with all of your fiancees.
Wait a minute.
Should we truly fight Saotome? If he should disappear-- Akane Tendo would physically, inevitably, logically.
.
.
and most certainly.
.
.
Be all mine! Let him go! Take me with you! Right! - All is forgiven! - Let Saotome Ranma.
.
.
- leave in peace.
- That's true.
.
.
friendship! Are you crazy?! We're against it! Let's take a vote.
All those in favor of Saotome Ranma's leaving-- Hold your fingers out.
It's unanimous.
In your dreams!! This is too idiotic.
Play by yourselves! Ranma darling! - Ranma-honey! - Ranma! Stop! Grandfather Happosai! I can understand how you girls feel.
But Ranma's bride can be only one.
The one that his mother Sakura chooses! The one his mother chooses?! You'll have to pass the Bride's Test which I'll give.
That'll leave only one true fiancee? I'm prepared for it! I take test! Now, girls! Pretend that I'm Ranma's mother Sakura and do your best.
Begin! You missed this spot.
Here, too.
Young girls can't clean for anything these days.
Are you being thorough? Look at this dirt.
Still dirty.
What happened? Not yet.
- Are you taking the test, too? - It doesn't matter! Just be sure no one takes Ranma from you.
- Goofing off?! - I'm finished! You can't be finished so soon! Look how dirty this is! What's that look? Are you disobeying your mother-in-law? Are you? Are you, hah?! Of course not! You're so good to me! No bride could be luckier! Obey your mother-in-law! Work, work, scrub and dust! Who'll be Ranma's bride? If you don't want to cry, work, work! Work! Yo, ho, ho! Whew! They finally left! What's with Happosai, anyway? What're you going to do, Ranma? Whaddya mean? She's your only mother in the whole world.
Aren't you going to live with her? Ranma! Hey, are you listening?! Sure! Your indecision caused all this trouble--! Is that what you want?! I mean-- Do you want me to go away? Go with her, Ranma.
Oh, yeah?! Okay, now I know.
Geez, you're uncute! Okay, so I'm uncute! I was only thinking of you! Just go with your mother! Do what you want! Oh, I'll do what I want, all right! Maybe I could use a workout.
Ranma! It must be hard on Ranma too.
He doesn't look it, but he's probably hurting inside.
Pop, where were you all this time?! Don't be insensitive.
He was with his love.
You look like you've gained weight, Mr.
Saotome.
Emotional stress causes him to gain weight? Thank you for breakfast.
Pop! You--! He seems quite troubled.
What do you say, everybody? Shall we have Ranma's mother move in with us? That's a great idea! Then Ranma won't have to leave.
Right, Akane? I-lt's fine with me if Dad doesn't mind.
Good! I'll talk to him man to man! I'm comin', too.
I can't take it anymore--! Pop! I refuse--! Don't say it, Ranma! Why not?! I understand how you feel! But Saotome is hurting far worse than you! If you truly care about your father.
.
.
shouldn't you sympathize with his pain and not speak carelessly? Let me handle this! Nice day, isn't it, Saotome? Actually, about that woman you were with-- Do you really have to leave this house? So you do? You're going to help her in her work? I guess we can't change your mind.
Ranma, don't blame your father.
Maybe it's his problem, but it don't mean nothin' to ME! What's he doing? Saotome! When someone's trying to talk to you.
.
.
the least you can do is listen! This bamboo leaf isn't from around here.
It's a top-grade leaf from China.
I'd better settle this with her, after all.
P-Pop! I'll settle it, too! Dad told me.
You can't stay with us.
Just my Pop.
Are you still angry?! If your father leaves, aren't you going with him?! My dad has his own life.
So do I.
- You don't have to pretend! - Whaddya mean?! Just be honest with yourself ! I'm ALWAYS honest with myself ! Now look, you--! Ranma! - Ranma-honey! - Ranma darling! I come with you! Great-grandma give okay.
I closed my shop! No matter how strict your mother is, love will conquer all! Forget it! I ain't going yet! We find out who go with Ranma.
You're on! We'll finish what we started yesterday! Ranma darling, please wait! You girls don't understand--! Not this way--! Why me? Pop! Ranma, we need to talk.
Just what I wanted! I got a lot to say, too! R-Ranma--! Do you remember that woman? She's nothin' to me.
It's your problem.
She needs you most of all.
Are you--? Oh, heck.
I'm just an extra added attraction.
An added attraction--? I was going to turn her down.
But her tears-- they broke my heart.
Anyhow, Ranma, just see her! That's all I ask! You'll see her? You will?! - I'm sorry, son.
- You're my Pop.
La Cirque Grande - Is she in here? - Yes.
Ranma, sweetie! So you've come? I see you've decided? I don't know what to say.
I'm grateful, but-- It's not easy having a mom after all these years-- What're you talking about? Look, your father's practicing! Where were you?! No bamboo leaves for you! Is that Chinese bamboo--?! You two have a remarkable talent! Turning into a girl and panda when covered with water! The panda might be too clumsy, though.
What's the matter with you?! Do it over! C'mon! "Can't you go a little easier on me!?" It's tough training a slow-witted panda! "If Nature had wanted pandas to balance on balls--" What's going on, Pop?! "The circus wants you because you can turn into a girl.
" "But you're successor to the Saotome martial arts school.
" "So I've been training hard in your place.
.
.
" "but they say they've got to have you--" Pop!! Pop! You tricked me! Amazing! They'll go wild when they see him turn into a girl! He'll be a star for sure! You'll have all the bamboo leaves you want! "You gotta admit, it's a sweet deal--" You toyed with my innocent, girlish-boyish heart! - Don't let it bother you.
- Don't jump on me! Your lies caused all this trouble! What'd I do to you?! Quit pretending! Blasted old lech! All's well that ends well.
Grandfather Happosai! Why did you lie about Sakura?! I couldn't help myself.
Please forgive me.
Pop!! I'll see that you NEVER leave the circus!
