Gnosia (2025) s01e08 Episode Script

It's filled up so much.
I see. It's because I've met
Otome and Remnan now, too.
After it fills completely
And once it gets all of
the knowledge it desires,
the Silver Key will leave its host
and head to another dimension
to find a new host.
I wonder how much further I have to go.
EPISODE 8: GUARD DUTY
Okay, let's go ahead and start
today's meeting. LeVi.
As you wish.
In this world line, a total
of fifteen boarded this ship.
And out of the fifteen,
there are four Gnosia.
During the first day's meeting,
Comet was sent into cold sleep,
and after that, Stella was attacked
by the Gnosia and eliminated.
On the second day,
Shigemichi was chosen for
cold sleep during the meeting.
After that, we lost Jonas to the Gnosia.
Now we have eleven left,
and we don't know how many
Gnosia remain among them.
If I can just go over it one more time
We can safely assume that whoever is on
Guard Duty is confirmed human, right?
Affirmative. Kukrushka and Remnan
did not leave this ship while
we were docked in Liu-An,
so the probability that they were
infected by Gnosia is zero.
Thanks.
Guard Duty The new role I found
out about during this loop.
The Engineer can investigate one person per
day and determine if they're human or Gnosia.
The Doctor can investigate
whoever was chosen for cold sleep
during the previous meeting
and determine if they're human or Gnosia.
The Guardian Angel can choose one person
to protect during the warp from Gnosia attack.
And now, Guard Duty—two people
who are confirmed to be human.
It just keeps getting more
and more complicated.
So, if there are up to four Gnosia
out of the eleven of us left,
and two people are confirmed to be human
P-Please stop.
W-We're in a meeting right now.
Kukrushka
Come, now. The banquet has already begun.
Hurry up and dance for me.
First, I'm gonna make my
report as the Engineer.
I checked out Setsu, and they were a Gnosia.
I see. If you consider me as being in the way,
that must mean that you're a Gnosia.
Of course you'd say that.
It's up to all of you to decide who
you believe, but I'm the real one.
And the Doctor's report?
I've already investigated
the body in cold sleep.
Shigemichi was human.
I also investigated him.
Shigemichi was
a Gnosia.
So what's going on here?
That, like, makes no sense.
Yeah, she's right.
The ones who came forward as the
Doctor and Engineer are these four.
Shigemichi was sent into
cold sleep the day before.
And Racio says Shigemichi was human,
while Jina says that he was Gnosia.
Which means one of them must be lying.
We know for sure that out of these four,
two of them are Gnosia.
If we can confirm that
even one of them is lying,
we should be able to narrow down exactly
which two are human and which two are Gnosia.
Pretty sure this is exactly the time to
ask the wise humans what they think.
Huh?
They're right there. The two
who're confirmed to be human.
O-Of course! What do you think, Kukrushka?
You don't know but the most
suspicious one to you is
Really?!
Hold up! You gotta be messed in the head!
She says that she has no basis for this.
It's just a gut feeling.
It may be a gut feeling, but we know
that it's a human's gut feeling.
Whoa, whoa. Y'all are crazy.
Where's this goin'?
It has been decided.
Sha-ming will be put into cold sleep.
Seriously?
You're the one who opened his big mouth
and said we should ask a human.
Big yikes.
But the decision has been made.
Are you for real?
Heh, then I've got somethin'
up my sleeve, too.
What is it? I didn't say any
I'm so sorry!
He's groveling?
First time I've seen this in real life.
I can't help but want to step on him.
I got cocky! I'll reflect upon my actions!
I'll change my ways!
So just this once! Please!
Let me go just this once!
Please, just this once!
Please?!
Sorry, but we can't.
But Kukrushka did say that it
was a baseless gut feeling, right?
Well, it is true that I'd prefer
to employ a more objective approach.
Lowly scum.
I couldn't care less what happens
to someone so insignificant.
Do as you please.
Woo!
Ain't this great?
So yeah, see you folks tomorrow!
But why
Do you have a problem with this?
Of course I do!
Each meeting, we choose one person
to send into cold sleep.
That's our agreement with LeVi.
It is,
but we did end up choosing someone
for a pretty sketchy reason.
If we start saying things like that,
it invalidates the whole meeting process.
Without a rule-based order,
there can only be chaos.
And then
We'll just go back.
At the very least, that's the case
for you and me, isn't it?
But for everyone else, this is
their one and only world line.
This is all they get.
It's disrespectful to them
to only consider the "next time."
Sorry.
You're totally right.
Though this might just be
my own stubbornness speaking.
That's what's great about you, Setsu.
No matter the world line,
you're always serious.
That doesn't really sound like a compliment.
But I'll say the same thing
right back to you.
I can't deny what Setsu said.
I need to do my best for everyone's sake.
Remnan
Um can you spare a minute?
Sure.
Kukrushka?
Yes. She insists on staying by my side.
The two of you on Guard Duty
are the only confirmed humans.
I'm sure she just trusts you.
Do you think so?
Is there something on your mind?
Not really.
It's just, I can't handle them.
I can't handle mysterious women like her.
You're scared of her? But she's just a girl.
And she's so small.
Yes.
But when she looks at me with those eyes,
my hands start to
Oh, Kukrushka. You say the wildest things.
I-I can't breathe from laughing so hard.
What are you doing?
Oh, Yuri! Kukrushka keeps
telling me the funniest stories.
Stories?
Kukrushka uses gestures to speak.
What is she saying?
She wants to play with him.
It's so pretty.
Is this your first time
seeing scenery like this?
Oh, no. Dr. Yoshikado has taught me so much.
But this is my first time
seeing this in person,
because I'm from a sea planet.
I see.
This
She's saying you can have it.
This is
Thorns?
No No!
No!
Are you all right?
Does that thing actually look human to you?
"That thing"?
Kukrushka.
Under the stars' gaze, all is laid bare.
She's no Gnosia, either. She's something
different.
"Different"?
If you let her outer beauty beguile you
you will lose sight of the truth.
What could all this mean?
Kukrushka should be human in this world line.
That's the one thing we know for sure.
I do not sense Yuriko's presence.
So Yuriko was
Well, from the Gnosia's perspective,
she was the second greatest
threat to them after me.
The fact that the Guardian Angel failed to
protect her shows just how useless they are.
It's safe to say we can't rely on them.
The Gnosia only attack humans.
Which means that the three
attacked by the Gnosia—
Stella, Jonas, and Yuriko—
are confirmed human.
Kukrushka and Remnan,
who were on Guard Duty,
are also confirmed human,
and I can rule out myself, too.
Which means that the four Gnosia
must be among the remaining nine.
All right. I'm gonna go ahead
and make today's report.
Yesterday—
Before you go any further,
I have a proposal to make.
We should send Chipie into cold sleep.
Ooh? That escalated quickly!
Of course you'd say that.
You've already reported that Shigemichi,
who claimed Engineer, was human,
so from your perspective I can only be Gnosia.
You are precisely correct. However
Even if I happened to be lying,
freezing you would be far more
advantageous for the humans.
You got it, Professor Racio!
So basically, if we put you both in the fridge,
whichever of you it is, we win!
Simply put, yes.
That's a bit bloodthirsty.
Are you all okay with this?
Sorry, but I agree.
What?
Of course, I'll feel bad if you end up
being the real Engineer, Chipie.
But Shigemichi, the other one
claiming Engineer,
was put into cold sleep very early this time.
You're the only Engineer left.
If you happened to be Gnosia, you'd have
free rein to manipulate all the information.
"This time"?
Er
Heh. Dead men tell no tales. Understand?
But I really do feel bad.
Otome Right?
This is totally unfair!
I agree. There's no actual
reason to suspect him.
I get what you're saying, but
All right, fine.
Then let me off the hook just this once,
like you did for Sha-ming yesterday.
Huh? But that's
You're not going to let Sha-ming
get special treatment, are you?
Ooh, your angry face is excellent, too!
Excuse me
Kukrushka says she knows
a good way to deal with this.
Send everyone into cold sleep?
Yes.
She's suggesting that since she
and Remnan are confirmed human,
they can look after the ship while
the rest of us go into cold sleep.
Isn't that a bit heavy-handed?
But it makes perfect sense.
This is the one way we can ensure that every
Gnosia infectee is sent into cold sleep.
What do you think, Setsu?
We'd be breaking our agreement
with LeVi again, but
Well, unlike the groveling,
this makes logical sense.
The two who'll remain have been
confirmed to be human, so
I don't like this idea.
What? You're actually against this?
Then we should probably
call it off, shouldn't we?
You're gettin' frozen either way, pal.
If we're gonna go down that road, you should
probably get frozen, too, shouldn't you?
Why, though? Man, you're annoyin'.
You oughta let your cat
do the talkin' instead.
Remnan Could you please agree to this?
Setsu
This is on all of us for breaking the rules
yesterday and letting Sha-ming go.
There's no other way
to restore order at this point.
All right
Man, I hate cold sleep.
Goin' beddy-bye in this thing not knowin'
when or if you might wake up again
is super harsh.
I haven't seen things
play out this way before.
This might be the most
peaceful resolution yet.
I wonder if this will change anything.
Who knows?
I'm pretty sure that you and I
will loop again, though.
Well see you again.
I wonder how many more times
I'm going to have to repeat this.
Wake up! Please wake up!
Yuri! Yuri!
Remnan
Hurry! Please! Hurry up and move!
Huh?
SQ
Hurry! She's coming!
She's coming back here for sure!
So please
Coming back here? What is—
Remnan!
Kukrushka
Setsu!
LeVi!
Lock down the lower level and
the cold sleep room immediately!
Emergency. Emergen E-E-E
LeVi! Lock it down!
Activate the security doors!
LeVi!
Does this mean
LeVi's already been neutralized, too?
Sha-ming
Was Kukrushka a Gnosia?
No since she was on Guard Duty,
she should be human.
Not to mention, the Gnosia
wouldn't do something this overt.
Yuri!
Jina!
I can't get ahold of LeVi.
You should escape outside, too.
Outside?
Out here, we can still barely
send an SOS to Liu-An.
I'll open the airlock.
Don't open it! Just head
out there without me, Jina!
Huh? But
I'll use the escape pod upstairs
and come and get you!
So hurry!
H-Hurry Hurry
Commence emergency opening.
Jina!
Jina Setsu SQ Everyone
Y-Yuri!
Hurry!
What in the world happened?
I don't know.
A-As soon as we were alone together,
Kukrushka suddenly went up to everyone
who was in cold sleep and
Is that Kukrushka really Kukrushka?
I don't know.
It's just
Just?
I used to be someone
else's property. Someone's pet.
"Pet"?
Yes. Every day was hell.
She made me wear a control
collar around my neck,
and I couldn't do anything
without her permission.
That's why I desperately ran away.
I ran to the far reaches of space!
But no matter how far I ran,
no matter how many decades I hid
She She still comes after me!
Just so she can toy with me again!
So you're saying
the one who kept you as
a pet was Kukrushka?
No. But she's the same!
The way her eyes look at me!
The way she smiles!
I just can't anymore!
Launching in ten, nine, eight, seven,
six, five, four, three, two, one
one one
one one one one one
Why
Did I loop?
What's going on?
Welcome to the world of the Gnosia!
