Gnosia (2025) s01e02 Episode Script

Loops

1
Do you understand?
No, not at all.
I figured as much. Considering how
dated this instant learning system is.
Can you get up?
I went back?
There's no doubt about it.
I've gone back in time.
Is this a dream?
EPISODE 2: LOOPS
No, this is reality. But that means
Now you have the power to transcend death.
So that's what that power does.
You'll know soon enough.
So I want you to do your best.
For everyone's sake and for your own.
Setsu
Er I was able to return
um, thanks to this power that you gave me.
What are you talking about?
Oh, right.
Since I went back in time, this is the
Setsu from before they saved me.
Er, um
Setsu!
You were taking so long,
I had to come check on you!
Oh, I hope I didn't interrupt anything?
Wow, they actually woke up?
What's this? Did our lovely Setsu's
Prince Charming kiss wake you up?
I told you. I'm not a man.
How's your amnesia?
Do you know my name?
SQ
Ooh, correctamundo!
Looks like the instant learning
system is doing its job after all!
Or maybe you never had
amnesia to begin with.
What? Are they still confused?
A bit.
If you keep looking like that, Racio's
definitely going to say something to
you!
I see no point in even discussing this.
It's obvious they should be put into cold sleep.
This again.
Just like the first time,
Racio is suspicious of me.
If this plays out,
Racio will get voted out in this meeting,
and then while we're in warp,
Jina will be eliminated
by SQ, who's been infected by the Gnosia.
What're you staring at me like that for?
Did you happen to realize
just how cute I am?
If you fall for me, you might get burned!
Is something bothering you?
What should I do?
I can't afford to just blurt out something.
But at this rate
Um
I understand why you're
all suspicious of me.
But I really am a human,
not a Gnosia infectee.
Hmph. How is an amnesiac
supposed to prove that?
I want to believe in Yuri.
Me, too.
I'm in the military,
so I've interacted with people in the past
who pretended to have amnesia.
It's not something you can easily pull off
by just acting like you have it.
Most of them slip up right away.
Then I'll make them slip up here and now.
Don't worry. It'll just be a light grilling.
That sounds really fishy.
Teacher! Racio is trying to
sway everyone's thoughts.
This isn't good. It's going
the same way as before.
At this rate, Racio's
going to be chosen again.
Yuri, who do you think is suspicious?
Is there someone?
Okay, good. Now I have
an excuse to bring it up.
From what I've seen so far
I have doubts about SQ.
Oho, so that's how we're doing this?
I also think she's been suspicious.
Jina
When she went to meet you
and Setsu just now,
she seemed to have something on her mind.
Really?
So this is what I get for
being concerned. I see, I see.
And so, poor little SQ is going to have to
cross the bridge of tears again today.
Sniffle.
Don't let her fool you. SQ is a Gnosia.
Hmph.
So your plan is to shift the attention
to someone else to get
the suspicion off of you.
Isn't that a bit too obvious?
Come on, Racio! Things were going so well!
You say that, but why are
you so suspicious of me?
Did you not hear anything I said?
There's a possibility that
you're faking your amnesia.
But there's also a chance that I'm not.
You're absolutely correct.
But there's no way to verify your claims,
and no one else here is suspicious.
So that leaves you. Obviously.
So I'm guilty until proven innocent?
I understand how these meetings work.
Racio is from the upper echelon of the Glyze
Fleet, known for their high intelligence.
You're not going to win
against them in an argument.
Teacher! Setsu and Yuri
are whispering in class!
No, we're not. We're just
What's this, Yuri?
Are you like a little birdie
that attached itself to Setsu
just 'cuz you saw them first?
Oho, well, isn't this interesting?
Could Setsu be a Gnosia who's trying
to lead the meeting by sweet-talking Yuri?
I suppose that's also a possibility.
N-No. You've got the wrong idea.
So you claim, but
You two sure are all lovey-dovey.
You can't pull one over on
the Great Detective SQ!
Damn it.
Then let's set the record straight.
Yuri and I
- are lovers.
- Huh?
We have been for a while.
Really? I thought you were asexual, though.
That's right.
It's a spiritual connection.
Then what was the purpose
of you being asexual?
I want to hear Setsu's opinion, too.
Setsu, who do you think is suspicious?
I
My gut is telling me that
someone is suspicious,
but I don't want to say who it is
until I'm absolutely certain.
Doesn't that, like, kinda defeat
the purpose of this meeting?
Yeah, I get that.
That's a common trick for someone
who's trying not to make any enemies.
You might want to rethink your approach.
Crap I feel like this is only going
further in the wrong direction.
It is time.
You may not veto the result.
The voting result will be
- deemed to be the will of all present,
- With how this meeting went,
- and you will abide by it.
- the only ones likely to vote for SQ
are me and Jina.
Racio is definitely voting for Setsu.
I'm pretty sure SQ is fine choosing
anyone other than herself.
Do you agree?
Then it is time for the verdict.
Who is the Gnosia?
I don't want it to end up like last time.
Please change.
Voting has completed. Five valid votes.
The voting rate is 100%.
The votes will now be tallied.
It has been decided.
Setsu will be put into cold sleep.
I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have said so much.
No, I'm the one who said
more than they should have.
Huh?
I said we were lovers, didn't I?
I've never been good at lying,
but I wanted to stop SQ's manipulation.
Sorry.
No, that's not what I'm talking about.
Um
This is my second time experiencing this.
Second time?
Yeah. I'm reliving the same day.
That's why I know that
the Gnosia is SQ.
I can't just believe that out of the blue.
What should I do? I want to save you!
I know who the Gnosia is.
- I'll just tell the others, and
- It won't work.
There's no way they'll believe you.
But
There's no time, so I'll just
tell you what's important.
The more you stand out in a meeting, the more
you'll attract suspicion and be voted for.
The purpose of the meetings is
to find out who's lying, after all.
The more reasons you give them to suspect
you, the more you'll be at a disadvantage.
And if anyone suspects you,
you'll put yourself in danger if you panic
and try to deny it or argue with them.
People tend to take that
as an admission of guilt.
Setsu, it is time.
All right.
And finally, the most important thing.
Don't trust anyone.
For all you know, I could be
a Gnosia myself right now.
Never forget that.
Setsu
Something, somewhere in this universe…
Something that'll change us
into something else
I can't trust anyone
Is SQ lying?
Tell me.
Why did you think SQ was suspicious?
You're in a time loop?
Yeah though I don't have any proof.
That's why all I can ask
is that you believe me.
I believe you.
Huh?
I actually thought the
same thing you did, Yuri.
Though it was just a hunch.
Really?
So if you're sure about this
I'm okay with both of us
voting for SQ tomorrow.
Jina
Don't trust anyone.
You don't trust me?
Follow me.
What's this?
When you work outside in the void
of space, you always work as a pair.
This is how people who work
outside in space determine
if they can trust their partner or not.
How can I help?
Here. Hold this.
The Earth is about this blue, too.
Earth?
That's where I was born.
It's a planet that's 70% ocean.
But from here, it's unbelievably far away.
How did you end up here?
I'm a space traffic controller.
Could you hand me that?
This ship will be traveling
through the Allacosia system.
There's an asteroid belt there
where ships often get damaged.
Because of the whole Gnosia mess,
LeVi doesn't have time to operate
the maintenance drones.
Oh
crap.
Calm down.
Sorry.
No issues found with the oxygen
concentration and atmospheric pressure.
You are clear to remove your helmets.
Thanks, LeVi.
What do you think?
I can trust you. What about you, Yuri?
I
I think I can trust you, too.
There is still some time
before the warp commences.
Yuri, why don't you take
a stroll around the ship
to help regain the memories you've lost?
- May I go with you?
- Huh?
I want to show you around the ship myself,
Yuri.
This is the recreation room.
You can relax or play various
games for a change of pace.
Billiards
I do beg your pardon, but I do not
believe you can play this game, Yuri.
You need at least four arms to play.
3D chess
- Y-Yuri
- Huh?
How shameless!
This is a clean and proper interstellar vessel!
Th-Th-Three-dee chess? How can
you say something so obscene?!
H-Huh?!
If you are lacking exercise,
please use these.
If you allow it to scan
your body at the entrance,
it will suggest an appropriate
exercise program for you.
That is a lot.
This is the power room.
It is essentially the heart of this ship.
Huh So is this where you are, LeVi?
I am terribly sorry,
but I'm afraid that I cannot answer
that question for security reasons.
There are now fewer than thirty
minutes until warp commences.
Please return to your rooms.
Taking a stroll at this hour?
How careless can you be?
Especially when one of us
could be eliminated very soon.
Eliminated?
The Gnosia will eliminate
one human during the warp.
There are only four of us left,
one of which is a Gnosia.
That means there's a one-in-three chance
you'll be bidding farewell to this world.
That's right.
I was so preoccupied with
the meeting, I totally forgot.
As long as there's still a Gnosia left,
someone's going to get attacked.
And if that someone is me or Jina
Racio.
Can I talk to you for a bit?
A time loop?
Yeah.
And you're saying that's how
you know who the Gnosia is?
Yeah. I know you might not believe me,
but it's the truth.
That's why I need your help.
If Jina or I are attacked
tonight and disappear,
whoever is left tomorrow
needs to vote for SQ and
How absurd. How utterly absurd!
I get it. You want to say that this whole
time loop story of mine is ridiculous, right?
Wha? What are you blathering about?
I believe you about the loop.
Because there are actual
lifeforms that can do that.
Lifeforms?
The problem lies with what you said after.
You're trying to say that SQ was the
Gnosia in the previous world line,
so she'll be the Gnosia
once again this time?
Have you not heard this before?
There's no way to confirm if the cat
is in the box until you've opened it.
It's a law of cause and effect that was
proven over a thousand years ago.
No way at all?
Indeed.
Even if the same time period repeats,
the world will continue to change
due to one's actions and choices.
And that's not all.
There are countless possibilities for
what has already happened in the past.
That's how world lines work.
The conditions are always changing.
Which means the results are also changing.
No But
Ten minutes until warp.
Yuri, Jina, please return to your rooms.
Well, that was truly a waste
of time. Go cool your head.
Though you might be eliminated
by the Gnosia before that.
No
So it's possible that SQ's not the Gnosia?
Don't trust anyone.
No, it couldn't be
Do you not trust me anymore?
That's not true
I trust you, though.
Jina.
Jina You're human, right?
Yes, I am human.
What exactly was that earlier?
Could it be that Jina No.
In that case, Racio is
suspicious, too. And SQ.
I'm basically back to not
knowing anything again!
Whoopsie, it opened up.
Welp, I'm just gonna make myself at home.
It's me, SQ.
Did you already forget what
we did that one night?
Could you leave?
Aw, really? Talk about ice-cold!
I can't believe you dumped cute
li'l SQ within two seconds!
Didn't anyone ever tell you
preconceptions are bad?
I guess that's that, then.
And here I thought you had
surprisingly cute eyes.
Beginning warp countdown.
Ten, nine, eight, seven
Yuri
Looks like it was Racio who got attacked.
Racio?
Which means
Either Jina or SQ is the Gnosia.
Should we start the meeting?
Sure, why not?
Though I think the time for talking has passed.
You may not veto the result.
The voting result will be deemed
to be the will of all present,
and you will abide by it.
Do you agree?
Which one is it?
Don't trust anyone.
Yes, I am human.
Which means the results are also changing.
The outcome has changed from before.
No, believe in yourself!
The last time, I messed up because I was
tricked by SQ's words and chose Setsu instead!
Believe in yourself
Trust in what you believe in!
Then it is time for the verdict.
Who is the Gnosia?
Voting has completed. Three valid votes.
The voting rate is 100%.
Aw, man
Actually, does cold sleep
count as, like, beauty sleep?
What's this, partner?
Now you're having regrets?
You're the one who chose
to sacrifice cute li'l SQ!
I don't have any regrets. It's just
Don't be all down in the dumps about it.
It's not exactly your fault, Yuri.
Anyway, goodnight!
Sweet dreams, y'all!
Please
Yuri.
I hope
I can see you again tomorrow.
Do you understand?
Again?
I'm back again?
To the first day with everything
the way it was when I first woke up.
Man, talk about a pain in the butt.
Huh?
Who is that?!
- Yuri!
- Huh?
Whoa, what?!
I adore you, Yuri
