Paradise Kiss (2005) s01e10 Episode Script

Rose

1
It's the ideal day for the school festival.
Good morning, young master.
Good morning Sebastian.
You are up early.
Say, Sebastian
What is it, young master?
Could we do something about the way you address me?
I'm not that young, either
But you dislike being referred to by name.
How would you prefer to be addressed?
How about "young mistress"?
Certainly. I will consider it if you call me Ueda.
But you are still Sebastian to me.
Just as you are young master to me.
Of course.
I'm truly thankful that you raised me from infancy
instead of those busy parents of mine.
I expect that the master and mistress harbor
no small amount of resentment toward me.
"What kind of education did you put him through?"
I'm an embarrassment to the family in their eyes.
And now I'm causing you to suffer, too
All because of my selfishness.
I'm sorry.
Absolutely not!
I've been very proud to see that shy
boy grow up into such a fine lady.
Thank you, Ueda.
You can still call me Sebastian.
Oh, wonderful!
This must be my reward for caring for them
even while I was busy with everything else.
I despise white.
It pretends to be pure but takes on every hue.
It's truly the most seductive of colors.
I can't help but steal it.
Oh, George!
Izabella, have you ever seen a fresh blue rose?
No, George.
Blue roses are just an illusion. Not
even a scientist could produce one.
That's right.
That's why "blue rose" has been given another meaning
"Impossibility."
George!
What is this?
Where did you get this?
It's a simple trick.
I just colored a white rose I bought.
Right
You almost fooled me.
I'm not trying to become a scientist.
You could call me a swindler who only deals in grand dreams.
There is nothing impossible in the world of art.
Don't you think blue roses would
be a perfect match for the dress?
Caroline!
How are you doing?
I'm feeling much better.
So much so that I had to be careful not to eat too much.
You're not going to gain weight from
just one day of overeating, Caroline.
But my tummy's sticking out.
Your tummy
This looks like fun!
I want to stop by a couple of places.
The show's going to be keeping us busy today
Why don't we enjoy the booths tomorrow?
Yeah, sure thing.
But if we win an award, there'll be the prize
ceremony, so we might be busy again.
Really?
Then I certainly hope that we'll be busy again tomorrow.
All busy!
Miwako-chan, what's wrong with them?
They're all blue
Hey George, lemme make something clear to you.
You know, your aesthetic sense's totally off.
Designers aren't swindlers trying to sell a dream.
Hey. You're splashing the dyes.
Isn't it our job to make something people will want to wear?
Quit pretending to be an artist.
I'm not pretending.
I'm just that way by nature.
That's exactly what I mean.
And ditch the stupid prince costume already!
Duke. Not prince.
Arashi
Let's not get into that. We've got a lot of work to do.
Besides, it's also our fault that the accessories got confiscated.
Still, Prince Moron here shouldn't be giving
us chores like this on the day of the show.
We could have started on this yesterday.
But the fresh flowers have to be truly fresh.
We could use artificial ones!
There's no time to make them.
Buy them!
You don't get it.
These have a meaningful role in out show because
Izabella put all of her love into growing them.
Oh, George
Then we could leave 'em white.
I just hate putting colors on living things.
It's like those chicks they paint red or green at
fairs Don't they look like they're suffering?
Oh, Arashi
Through all those piercings and tattoos
I love that pure side of yours.
Don't use that word!
Guys!
Our model's here!
I'm Hayasaka Yukari.
Nice to meet you.
See? Here's the blue rose, Caroline.
Oh, wow!
It's so pretty!
Whoa, it looks real!
Why are they so worked up?
When we're under serious pressure here
Girls love parties.
I see.
Who's this?
He looks like a magician.
Don't be bringing those doves!
Don't disturb our work,
Well, I'll go attend the rehearsal with Yukari.
Please carry on with the rest of the work.
As for the doves
We'll eat them later.
Don't worry, George.
We'll get them done in time for the show.
Hey, George, water doesn't seem to work on this stuff.
Is it going to come off with soap?
Yeah, it will.
But it's not going to wash out of your clothes, so be careful.
Sure thing,
Anyway, this stuff colors so well that it's almost scary.
What did you mix to make such a pretty blue.
I didn't mix anything.
It's just an undiluted solution.
What of?
My blood.
So I'm feeling a little anemic.
Can I share your iron pills?
Sure, but I don't know if they're any
good for someone with blue blood.
N No
NOOOOOOOOO!
Don't take him seriously!
Yukari, are you nervous?
No. All I have to do is walk with a dress on.
I'm actually excited.
That's good,
I couldn't sleep last night from all the anxiety.
You're just saying that.
I'm not nervous
but I am a bit anxious.
Say, George.
Will we be tied together forever, even after the show is over?
Bad boy.
I told you, only after we win the grand prize.
Let's do the rest after we win the grand prize.
If we don't get the grand prize
If we don't get the grand prize
I'll cheer you up.
Miss Hamada!
Asou-san?
Yay.
How're you doing, Teach?
Why are you here? In Japan?
I really wanted to see the show, so I came home for a few days.
Did you?
Who's this?
She's cute.
Introduce her to me, Hama-chan.
You're that model, Shimaoto Somethingorother!
Oh, you know me?
Thank you.
I've retired as a model.
I run a modeling agency now.
Please join us as an exclusive model.
Seriously?
Hey! You can't do that, Shimamoto-san!
She's actually an aspiring designer!
She won the grand prize in the second-years' show
and is currently studying abroad in London.
Wow, so she's Mikako's junior.
I'm Asou Kaori.
Nice to meet you.
Walking the runway for the first time in my life, I found it
much wider and longer than I'd assumed.
I almost tripped over myself.
I never knew simple walking could be so difficult.
It's just like life itself.
It's okay, Caroline.
You've never been on the runway before, after all.
It's just I got nervous.
You don't have to do it like a pro model.
You can walk normally,
Was it that terrible?
We should have left you some time to practice.
We kept ourselves busy just working on the dress.
No, I should've done some walking practice on my own.
But I got so busy
Like the follow-up exams
Right.
You got sick, too, Caroline.
No. The more excuses I make, the more he'll despise me.
Anyway, I'll go practice.
Oh, I'll come, too.
No.
You've got your job.
Don't worry.
Let's all do what we have to for our show.
Yup.
Yukari?
Come to the make-up room in the auditorium at one.
We'll start doing you hair then.
That's only 30 minutes.
But the show starts at four, right?
Why does hairstyling take three hours?
No
It's my fault for taking the walking so lightly.
If I trip in front of such a large crowd, it'll
be the biggest embarrassment of my life.
What's wrong with a little embarrassment?
Everybody starts out like that.
Miss President! Please give me some advice!
You can't get good that quickly.
Any tips for me?
A tip? Well
Believe that you are the most beautiful woman in the world.
I couldn't possibly do that!
All I wanted to know was how to walk well!
What should I do?
It'd be all right if I was the only one getting embarrassed.
But I've got the reputations of George, Miwako-chan,
and everybody else riding on me.
So this is far more important than any other designer's work.
We've all worked so hard just for this day!
I'm sorry.
It'll be my fault if we don't get the grand prize.
What are you talking about, Carrie?
The competition is all about the dress.
There is nothing you need to feel bad about.
Don't worry.
We won't blame you even if you fall flat on the stage.
It's our fault for picking you.
George!
I felt so pathetic.
The tears choked me up and suffocated me.
But I won't cry!
Never!
I will make this show a success!
I'll save my tears for the grand prize!
Emotional Miwako-chan will surely cry, too.
We'll hug each other and share the tears of joy!
All done!
Hurry up, Miwako!
We've only got 40 minutes until the show!
Oh, we still have 40 minutes?
That's plenty.
You idiot!
We've got to put these on Yukari right now!
Right!
W-W-What should we do?
Can we make it on time?
We're the 5th ones up
Let's run!
Sorry, sorry!
Comin' through, comin' through! Watch out!
Hey, hey!
Did you just see some friends of yours?
Yes.
Let's eat these takoyaki before they get cold.
Takoyaki = octopus dumplings, a popular snack.
Thank you, Noriji-san.
My full name is Sunami Noriji.
I'm the landlord of the apartment where
Miwako and Hiroyuki grew up.
For those of you who don't know me yet, check out
"Gokinjo Monogatari" at your local manga cafe.
Gokinjo Monogatari is a long series set before
ParaKiss that follows Miakako's career.
I thought I might see Miwako-chan and Arashi-kun
again, but I can't seem to find them.
Huh?
They just were running over there.
Where?
If I'd known you wanted to see them, I would have e-mailed them.
Well, they must be busy today, so I don't
want to bother them too much.
They must still be getting along.
Are they dating now?
Looks like it.
Don't you have a girlfriend yet, Hiroyuki-kun?
I wouldn't be here with you if I did.
I thought you were going to get together with Miwako-chan.
Does that have anything to do with the fact
that you don't have a girlfriend yet?
No.
Then why come to the school festival
when you've got exam preparations?
I came to see the girl I like, since
she'll be in the show as a model.
Although she already has a boyfriend.
Hiroyuki-kun
If you keep chasing after such hopeless romances
you'll end up a lifelong bachelor like me.
Whoa!
Outta my way!
Arashi! That was Asou-san!
Asou-san from Class C was there just now!
What?
That's not possible!
She's in London now.
There they are!
Hey, George!
Where's Yukari?
Are the roses done?
Yeah.
So, where's Yukari?
Izabella's helping get into her dress in the next room.
The next room is girls-only.
Carrie, I've felt uncomfortable as a
boy for as long as I can remember.
It was hard for me, having to live as a boy.
In the spring semester of third grade, I talked
about it with my classmate, George.
Nobody had taken me seriously until then
But he listened to me very intensely.
That fact alone made me happy, but
A few days later, George came to visit me.
Happy birthday, Yamamoto-san.
Izumi-kun?
It's not my birthday.
Remember? We had my birthday party last winter?
That's Yamamoto-kun's birthday, right?
Sebastian, some Dom Perignon please.
I opened the box to find a pretty violet dress and hat.
Koizumi-kun, are these
Do you like them?
Try them on.
I can't!
Why?
I'm a boy, so I can't dress like a girl.
Who said that?
There's no law like that.
But I can't!
A boy like me wouldn't look good in something like this!
Don't worry.
You'll look good.
I was thinking about you when I made it.
Hey, this is kid's champagne.
Damn that Sebastian
You made these, Koizumi-kun?
Yeah.
I couldn't find anything that matched the image I had.
It was my first time making clothes
but it was a lot more fun than a model kit.
Wow!
I want to make them, too!
Than let's do it together.
Yeah!
Anyway, put them on.
I want to check to see if they came out okay.
I was happy and excited
But I still felt shy.
Maybe he's trying to make fun of me.
What if he laughs at me?
But he was totally serious.
Do I look funny?
C-Cute
Yamamoto
I'm a genius.
That gives me an idea for the next one.
When I realized it, I was laughing out loud.
Since then, I've decided to celebrate my birthday in the spring.
I couldn't be born as a girl.
But by dressing as a girl
I was given a magical hope.
Beautiful dresses give people courage.
With that belief I've been making dresses with George.
Did that give you magic, too?
Hey, George.
I just saw Asou-sa
Wow, Yukari!
Caroline
So pretty..
I won't let them regret choosing me.
I'll walk so proudly that everyone'll be jealous.
