Classroom of the Elite (2017) s01e12 Episode Script

[bell ringing]
[IBUKI]
What the--?
[IBUKI]
Ibuki, here.
I've acquired Class D's
card, as directed.
[KATSURAGI]
Right.
Yes.
Yes, I see. We'll meet
up there in a bit.
[KATSURAGI] Class A's final
score will be 544 points.
That's 350 ahead of Class B.
And it beats
Class D's score by
an overwhelming number.
[SUZUNE gasps]
You're finally awake.
[SUZUNE] Where are we?
How did I get here?
And why are we together?
I found you passed out
in the forest.
I picked you up and
brought you here.
[SUZUNE] I chased Ibuki
to where you found me.
She's the one who
took the key card.
But I wasn't able to
get it back from her.
Not in this state.
I see.
[AYANOKOJI]
Horikita, you have to drop out.
[AYANOKOJI] I'll figure out
a way to deal with
Ibuki and the stolen card.
You can't keep this
up any longer.
[SUZUNE]
I won't drop out.
We'll lose more points if I do,
and we can't afford to.
Especially not now.
[AYANOKOJI]
Look, you're sick--
I don't have any
choice in the matter.
If we want to reach Class A.
Don't obsess about that.
It doesn't matter.
I want to show my brother
I'm not a loser.
But will that do you any good?
Do you think it will
change anything?
[SUZUNE] I dunno. But still,
this is all my fault.
If I had friends, we could have
carried the card in shifts.
But I don't. No one in
class cares about me.
It's all my fault. I'm done for.
[AYANOKOJI] Do you mean to
say that you're starting
to see the value
in having allies?
I won't let this define me.
I swear to you.
I'll make up for it.
I'll do it alone if I must.
You won't be able
to do it alone.
I hate to be the one
to tell you this,
but you aren't strong enough.
Are you saying I should give up?
No, that's not what
I'm trying to say at all.
There's no need to give up.
If you can't win
the battle alone,
then look for others
who can help.
I'll be one of those people.
That's not like you.
You're usually so
cryptic, and you
[AYANOKOJI]
Excuse me, ma'am?
[CHABASHIRA]
Horikita. What happened?
[AYANOKOJI]
She's had a bad fever,
and she just passed out
because of it.
She needs to be
somewhere she can rest.
[CHABASHIRA] She'll have
to drop out of the exam.
Do you accept that loss?
[AYANOKOJI]
Yes.
[KARUIZAWA]
I heard that Horikita
dropped out of the test.
[SATO]
Ibuki's gone missing, too.
Do you think she was responsible
for the arson after all?
But, why would she be?
I mean, what would
that even accomplish?
Wait, do you think Ibuki could
have been Class C's leader?
I have no idea.
But everyone else in Class C
dropped out, right?
By now, their leader
must be gone.
[HIRATA]
Our key card was stolen?
Yeah.
But I haven't told anyone
else anything about it.
This confirms that Ibuki
was sent to find our leader.
As for the underwear theft,
we can assume that was also her.
Why would she do that?
No, there's no use in
trying to figure out why.
What we need to be concerned
with now is tomorrow,
when they name our leader,
and we lose those points.
[AYANOKOJI]
The penalty from our drop-outs
and having our leader guessed
is a total loss of 110 S-points.
The fact that they know
our leader will negate
all our bonus points, too.
[HIRATA] And that will leave us
with only about 50 S-points.
After the test
results are revealed,
it won't take long for people
to start blaming each other.
[AYANOKOJI] Yeah, might devolve
into a bit of a witch hunt.
[HIRATA]
You know.
I thought this exam
would give us the chance
we needed to bring
our class together.
I thought that, if we could
unify and do our best,
that it might help forge
bonds between all of us.
But, no.
The reverse happened,
and this could be
the end of Class D.
[AYANOKOJI] Hirata. I have
a little favor to ask of you.
[MASHIMA]
Before the test officially ends,
take a few moments
to name who you think
the other class leaders are.
[STUDENT 12A]
I haven't seen Kaneda
[HOSHINOMIYA]
All right, guys.
Write down on this
form who you suspect
the other class leaders are.
If you don't have any idea,
then leave it blank,
just to be safe.
[chuckles] That makes sense.
Should I just leave
it blank, then?
Each wrong guess
costs us 50 points.
I don't see any need to risk it.
Good call.
We have more than
200 points, anyway.
[SAKURA]
Um, hi.
The test is finally over.
Yeah. It's finally over.
Do you have any idea
what our final score
on the exam will turn out to be?
There was that thing
with Ibuki, you know?
[MASHIMA] Right! All
remaining classes are here.
I formally declare
the test complete.
All scores are in,
and everything's final.
[RYUEN]
Hey.
You wouldn't say goodbye
without me, would you?
[ICHINOSE]
What's Ryuen doing here?
[KANZAKI] You mean he stayed
on the island, after all?
[KEN]
Ryuen's here, but Ibuki's not?
[KARUIZAWA]
Yeah, why is that?
[KATSURAGI]
You did an excellent job, Ryuen.
You helped Class A earn
over 500 S-points.
Allow me to offer a hand in
gratitude for your hard work.
Just wait.
You're all about to witness
something very interesting.
[KATSURAGI]
What do you mean by that?
[KATSURAGI] If we hang
a curtain over the entrance
to the cave, and hide
everything in there,
then the other classes won't
have a clue what we're doing.
This is a bold plan
you've conceived.
Very risky.
And it's the only way
I'll apply myself.
The school can shove its test.
I absolutely abhor hard work.
[RYUEN] On the first day
of the special exam.
I forged a contract
with Class A.
Class C would buy and
transfer 200 S-points'
worth of goods to Class A.
And, I would give any
information Class C
collected on the other
class leaders to Katsuragi.
Regarding the other leaders.
I will need more than just
your word on their identity.
I need you to show me a
photo of their key card.
That, or get me the card itself.
Right. Sure thing, man.
One thing though,
when you form an alliance
with someone, shouldn't
you trust them?
[RYUEN] That's right.
I need you to truly hate me.
'Cause If you don't
you won't fool anyone.
Take a hike.
[RYUEN] Next, I sent Ibuki
and Kaneda to work as spies.
Ibuki in Class D,
and Kaneda in Class B.
[RYUEN]
Then came the revelry.
[RYUEN] We spent all 100
of the S-points we had left
after the trade with Class A.
Then I had everyone except
Kaneda and Ibuki drop out.
I alone remained.
I went into hiding,
deep in the jungle.
[chuckles] You must really
hate Katsuragi, am I right?
[RYUEN] I was working with
Sakayanagi's faction
from Class A, too.
One of the guys in that camp
was intentionally abusing
a spot on the island
to reduce his own
class's points.
He was human garbage,
but remarkably forthright.
Enough to tell me who
his class leader was.
[RYUEN] What I hadn't
planned for was Ibuki's
digital camera breaking.
It was an unfortunate
kink in the works,
and forced Katsuragi
and me to verify
Class D's key card in person.
[KATSURAGI]
It's genuine. Good job.
Your obligation is complete.
Care to know who
Class B's leader is?
Naturally, B holds
their cards close.
So all evidence is
purely circumstantial.
Unless you have verifiable
proof, I don't care.
Ryuen, you smell
like a dead animal.
Take a shower, set yourself
on fire, whatever works.
[SAKAGAMIAKANE]
Ryuen. Are you there?
[RYUEN]
Is the test finally over?
[SAKAGAMIAKANE]
Kaneda and Ibuki
have dropped out as well.
[RYUEN]
I see.
[SAKAGAMIAKANE]
Anyway. Let's close this out.
Of course.
[RYUEN] Class A's leader
is Yahiko Totsuka.
B's is Chihiro Shiranami.
D's is Suzune Horikita.
[SAKAGAMIAKANE] Honestly now,
you say that you hate it.
Any kind of exertion
or hard work.
But, look at you.
You're like a soldier who's
just fought an epic battle.
You're dirty, injured.
The others talk about
your determination
in seeking victory.
Why don't you quit your
babbling already, teacher.
Now that I've guessed
every class's leader,
that will subtract 50 points
from each of their scores
and negate their bonus points.
Class A will only gain
a paltry 170 points
from this test.
As for Class C's points--
150 just from
naming the leaders.
Combine that with
the points we gained
from securing spots, and we'll
beat Class A, for sure.
[RYUEN]
That means I win again.
[MASHIMA]
And now, the time has come.
I will reveal the results
of the special examination.
[MASHIMA] Coming in last:
Class C, with zero points.
[RYUEN]
What?
[MASHIMA]
Next, in third place: Class A,
with 120 points.
In second: Class B.
One hundred and forty points.
Finally, in first
place: Class D,
with 225 points.
[gasps] First place?
Huh, really?
[IKE]
We did it!
[CLASS D cheering]
What on earth?
How could that have happened?
[KOENJI laughs]
Well then, it looks like
you had a great time
on the island.
[KOENJI laughs]
Shut your mouth, Koenji!
You realize that we
lost 30 whole point
because of you, right?
[laughs] Oh, just calm down.
I was laid up with a very
nasty cold, my good man.
What was I supposed to do?
You damn vain punk.
Cut it out!
Dry off and stop glistening!
[CLASS clammoring]
[SUZUNE]
Wait up!
You better tell me exactly
what's going on here.
[SAKAYANAGI]
It all played out more or less
the way I expected it would.
The Katsuragi
faction is finished,
or they'll lose a great deal
of influence, at least.
That's right.
And if we're united going
into the second term,
then Class A is going
to be unstoppable.
[HASHIMOTO] Katsuragi's here,
so I'd better hang up.
[SAKAYANAGI]
Yes. Again, nice work.
[STUDENT 12C]
How are you going to atone
for this one, Katsuragi?
[STUDENT 12D]
Signing that contract
was an enormous mistake!
[YAHIKO] Don't forget
every single one of you
signed off on it, too!
[HASHIMOTO] This is just
pathetic, Katsuragi.
Hashimoto.
How dare you criticize Katsuragi
when you're probably
the reason we failed!
I don't know what you did,
but why don't you try going to--
Hashimoto.
You spoke to Ryuen, did you not?
I know you sold the name
of Class A's leader
to that opportunistic scumbag.
[HASHIMOTO chuckles]
[KANZAKI]
Second place, huh?
[chuckles] Yeah it is still
a loss, unfortunately.
Class D really was the only
clear winner in this exam.
Hey. Remember the first day?
What the teacher told us?
She said to keep in mind
anything in this school
can be bought with points.
[KANZAKI]
Yeah. I do recall that.
[ICHINOSE]
It may be really expensive,
but it can still be bought.
You can be in any
class you want,
if you pay the price.
I apologize.
[RYUEN]
Well. I've figured it out.
The reason they got
that high score,
and why our score
ended up being zero.
[RYUEN] It's because we
guessed it incorrectly.
Class D's leader.
What?
Well, you weren't our
leader anymore, Horikita.
Wh-What? But the card!
[SUZUNE] What the?
What's your name doing on it?
Just before the test ended,
I had Class D's leader changed.
[gasps]
You can't just change leaders,
unless you've got
a really good reason.
Which obviously means, if you
do have a really good reason,
you are allowed to switch.
[AYANOKOJI]
Our leader's health was failing.
That's as good a reason as any.
Because of that,
when Ryuen and Katsuragi
named you class D's leader,
they were wrong.
It was me.
Wait, you conceived
of this whole plan
by yourself, didn't you?
Yeah, I did.
[AYANOKOJI]
I knew Ibuki was a spy,
so I destroyed
her digital camera.
That meant she would have
to steal the key card itself,
which would be much harder
than taking a picture of it.
[AYANOKOJI] Then I waited
until your condition
had sufficiently deteriorated.
[AYANOKOJI] I promise to give
you Sakura's email address,
but you've gotta
do something for me.
Ah?!
[AYANOKOJI]
I got you to show me your card
while Ibuki was watching,
staged a distraction,
got you to go to the waterfall.
And thus, Ibuki was lured
into stealing your key card.
[AYANOKOJI]
Then, I started the fire
to throw the camp into chaos.
Giving Ibuki the opening
she needed to escape.
I knew their plan had
always been for her
to sneak away from the camp
and show Ryuen the card.
Then you convinced me
that I should drop out,
and made yourself the leader.
Yeah, but that came later.
At first, I'd planned
to amass points
by occupying all the spots.
But then I saw Katsuragi leaving
one of the spots with Class A's
key card in his hand.
[SUZUNE] So, that means
Class A's leader was Katsuragi?
[AYANOKOJI] No. Katsuragi
is a cautious person.
He would never do
anything that careless.
He wouldn't even occupy
a spot when someone
might be around to see him.
It was just a performance
to hide the truth.
That someone else
had occupied the spot,
without checking it
in with him first.
That's how I was able to infer
that Class A's leader
was in fact Yahiko,
who was with Katsuragi
at the time I saw him.
And as for Class C,
I was well aware
that Ryuen had never
actually left the island.
[AYANOKOJI] When we went
to pay Ryuen a visit,
he had a two-way radio
on the table next to him.
Ibuki was in possession
of one just like it.
If Ryuen was indeed
still in contact
with Ibuki that way, it meant he
still had to be on the island.
After that, I was certain
that Ryuen was Class C's leader.
That's what made me
change my tactics.
I switched from a spot
occupation strategy
to a leader
identification strategy,
and used you as a pawn.
But I left Class B alone.
I determined eroding
our friendly alliance
with them would be detrimental
to us in the long run.
And, to be honest,
there was already
a spy in Class B.
So, I knew that their
leader would be revealed,
even without any
action on my part.
And you surmised correctly.
Their leader was identified,
costing them serious points.
Yes, if another class
guesses your leader,
it costs you 50 points,
and all your bonus points
are negated, as well.
You really put one over
on everyone this time.
But, I don't get it.
You claim to have no interest
in ascending to Class A,
so why did you help me?
I can't figure out
what motivates you.
Why do you do it?
[HIRATA]
There she is! Horikita!
We've been looking
everywhere for you!
How did you do it?
We heard that you're the only
reason Class D won this thing!
Hirata told us
everything you did!
He said that you're
the one who figured out
who Class A and C's leaders
were. That's awesome!
[MATSUSHITA] Thanks to you,
we've got tons of points now!
[SATO]
You're amazing! What a genius!
--You guys, wait.
--[SHINO] Ibuki was the one
who started the fire,
and when she ran away,
you chased her in
the rain, right?
--[SUZUNE] Um, well.
--[MATSUSHITA] And he told us
that's the reason you're
under the weather!
[SATO] So cool! You're the
best friend ever!
Friend? What are
you talking about?
Horikita sure is popular, huh?
[AYANOKOJI]
Yeah, I guess so.
I really do hate her.
Because, for better
or for worse,
she has nothing to hide.
She and I are opposites. So
Well, most people
are more like you.
Me, included.
[KIKYO]
Hey, Ayanokoji?
[AYANOKOJI]
What is it?
[KIKYO] If you had to
make a choice, like,
who you would be with
You would choose
Horikita, wouldn't you?
[AYANOKOJI]
I don't know.
Meanie.
[phone chimes]
[CHABASHIRA] First, please
allow me to congratulate you.
I am genuinely impressed.
Oh, so now you're satisfied?
Then tell me something.
Is it true that an
outsider attempted
to get me expelled,
or did you make that part up?
[CHABASHIRA]
Hm.
I won't play this game,
and I refuse
to do anything else for
you until I have proof.
Have you forgotten that I know
every little thing
about you? Come on, now.
Don't you think that
that's proof enough?
[CHABASHIRA]
Icarus' wings.
What about 'em?
[CHABASHIRA] Icarus wanted
to fly in order to be free.
But he only did it because
his father taught him
how to make the wings
and take flight.
He couldn't have done it alone.
The poor boy wasn't
flying of his own accord.
Now, don't you think that
sounds a little bit familiar?
That man who called me,
who I am sure you've figured
out by now is your father,
said, "Someday, Kiyotaka will
choose to leave the school
of his own accord."
Fly too close, and you'll
burn your wings,
then plunge into
the sea and drown.
We both know that won't happen.
Poor, little Icarus.
What will your next move
in our little game be?
I think you know
the answer to that.
"Poor" Icarus? He didn't
heed Daedalus' warnings.
[IBUKI]
You would have gotten
hundreds of thousands of points
every month until graduation?
From the very beginning,
that contract was
the only thing I was after.
The bonus points were
just a part of that goal.
However,
I don't like it when people
try to get in the way
of what I want.
[RYUEN]
Class D.
[sighs]
[SUZUNE] I I've been
looking all over for you.
Oh, it's you again.
What do you want this time?
I heard from Hirata.
When you said who Class A
and C's leaders were,
you also told him I was the one
who figured the whole thing out.
[AYANOKOJI huffs]
[SUZUNE] And then after
the test was over,
you asked him to do something
to bring the class
back together.
Are you trying to use me
as some kind of cover?
Horikita, remember
what I said to you
a long time ago? I told you
that you need allies.
Is that why you
did all of this?
I'm finally starting to see
a real change in you.
Why's it always your fault?
Look, I acknowledge
that we are allies,
but I'll only do it grudgingly,
so don't get any ideas, okay?
And you better not act like
we're all buddy-buddy
once we get back
to school, or trust me,
there'll be hell to pay!
It's just for our goals.
We're working together
to get to Class A!
But
Despite that,
I have to tell you.
Thanks for your help.
Not that I need you or anything.
I am fine without you!
[AYANOKOJI]
But, Horikita.
I've never considered
you an ally.
Not even for a second.
Not you. Not Kushida.
Not Hirata.
People are nothing
but tools to me.
All of them. I don't care
what I have to do to win.
[AYANOKOJI] I don't care
what I have to sacrifice.
In this world,
winning is everything.
[AYANOKOJI] And in the end,
I'm going to win.
[AYANOKOJI]
That's all that matters.
