Cells at Work! (Hataraku Saibou) (2018) s02e07 Episode Script
Cancer Cell II: Part 1
1
I wonder why.
Since talking to NK Cell,
his aura has become gloomy.
Smells bad.
It looks like hell.
I can't breathe.
This is a poisonous gas produced
by harmful bacteria in the intestines.
-Poisonous gas?
-Poisonous gas?
Hey, are you sure his friends are here?
Yes.
Because it is said that the total number
of bacteria
in the intestine is one trillion.
In that case,
we can definitely find them, right?
Yes.
We should be okay.
He doesn't look okay at all, though.
You are free to do what you want,
but please be calm.
I don't want that guy
to interfere with our move.
I fought him once.
Based on that experience…
this time I will become
a Memory T Cell to destroy him!
I have a question.
Who exactly is "that guy"
you discussed earlier?
-Cancer Cell.
-Cancer Cell.
Cancer Cell?
Platelet, are you okay?
Yes! I'm okay!
Everyone, be careful!
I can't see!
It looks like this time,
he's the one approaching us.
Where is his real body?
Cancer Cells like you don't have
to bother coming back to life!
Die!
Did we win?
It's a prank!
He's just my doll.
Having this much struggle over a doll…
Looks like you immune cells
are just that hopeless.
I'm so happy.
You three were also there
the last time, weren't you?
Cancer Cell.
Long time no see.
Maybe this is destiny.
You three have come to see me again.
Well, then.
Let's prove which one of us
is the true justice.
He's coming!
Die!
NK!
CELL
Your attacks are so predictable.
I'm all right, NK Cell!
Untangle us first! Get cocky later!
Now then. Would you like
to tell me something, boy?
Even though you knew you were going to be
killed, why did you come back again?
Do you think you can win this time?
This is our second time fighting you.
We already have the knowledge
of all your attack maneuvers,
so this fight is a little boring.
I have no intention of fighting.
It's just that
my goal has been set from the start.
I want the three of you
to see it first-hand.
Surprised?
They are just like the doll.
Every single one of them
is part of my tissue.
They will not die even if they are cut.
They will keep moving.
You are helpless.
Just wave your white flag already
and give up.
Behind you, NK Cell!
You too, Neutrophil!
Don't underestimate me.
I, Memory T Cell, have memorized
all your attack maneuvers!
Memory T Cell.
I see.
The point is you
are different from before.
You won't escape!
The new me can see your next move!
Right there!
Please hold your attack.
We have confirmed
that this cell is harmless.
He's not considered a foreign invader.
Technically, he is just like us,
who were born in this body.
I won't allow you to attack him.
Regulatory T Cell.
Regulatory T cell.
Cells that prevent killer T cells
from going out of control.
Why are you…
This is bad!
Memory T Cell, behind you!
Neutrophil!
Hey, 1146, what are the conditions
over there? Please respond!
-Hey, 1146! Where are you?
-I knew it.
Hey, 1146, please respond--
You would protect him.
Let's talk and not kill each other.
Capisce?
Are those bacteria still chasing us?
I don't know! Just run!
Run while covering your mouth
and nose with a handkerchief!
-Yes!
-Yes!
The intestinal condition
has gotten even worse.
AE3803
Yes?
You see? Looks like we can't get through.
Look at that.
You can't go this way!
There are bacteria infiltrating this area!
-What?
-Find another way and run fast!
Yes!
AE3803, I'm afraid.
It's okay, Backward Cap.
The platelets are looking anxious.
I have to keep it together!
Everyone, let's go at maximum speed!
-Yes.
-Yes.
NK Cell! Memory T Cell!
Cancer Cell!
Memory T Cell!
Get me out of here, Cancer Cell!
Don't you want to kill me?
If you have a grudge on me,
let me be your opponent!
Don't scream when you're injured,
White Blood Cell.
Treasure your life.
If you understand my words,
I'll get you out of there soon.
Being stuck there without being able to do
anything is torturous, right?
Regulatory T Cell!
Please get me out of here!
I will kill this Cancer Cell!
Please!
Kill?
If that's your intention, I won't open it.
Because he's not considered a threat.
The function of a regulatory T cell.
Regulatory T cells have the ability
to suppress immune cells' functions,
so the latter won't be able
to attack fellow cells
or any beneficial bacteria.
In this case, the cancer cell initially
originated from the body tissue,
so it is not considered a foreign object.
As a result,
immune cell attack is inhibited.
She's not betraying you.
She's just doing her job.
Cancer Cell, I'll kill…
You can't attack cells.
Exciting, right?
You holier-than-thou cells
are always so strict.
Then despite such
uncompromising strictness,
you and that Ordinary Cell are actually
helping Lactic Acid Bacteria, huh?
That's because Lactic Acid Bacteria
are good for this body!
You are right. I understand that.
But, my thinking has also changed
since you killed me.
What's necessary and what's not…
Who gives a right to decide such a thing?
Even though taking a life from
a cell is very sad no matter what,
why does my kind have to experience
such death over and over again?
Have you ever thought about it?
It's all for the sake of this body!
Killing lethal beings
like you is necessary
for the survival of this body!
I thought you would answer that.
In that case, let's think in more detail.
The life of the trillions of cells
or the life of this body,
which one is more important?
As cells, we kill and sacrifice each other
solely to keep this body alive.
We who have been killed and those of you
who have killed have both suffered.
In that case, why don't we create a world
where cells don't have to kill each other?
Even though such a world could only exist
so briefly before the certain destruction.
In order to build that world,
sacrificing the life of this body
is not too costly a price, is it?
I won't let you!
I will never condone such intentions!
Get me out of here, Cancer Cell!
I'll kill you!
And I will set you on the right course!
If this body dies, we will all die too!
Of course.
But at least even for mere seconds,
we get to be free.
Making it happen is my job.
There's nothing wrong with that.
Such a demented world is impossible--
It is possible!
Because this time around,
Regulatory T Cell is on my side.
Also, this place…
That smoke…
It's the poisonous gas emitted
by harmful bacteria!
After the new world is created…
let's be friends, my virtuous
killer machine, White Blood Cell.
Stop it!
Cancer Cell, stop it!
NK Cell, Memory T Cell,
Regulatory T Cell, are you guys okay?
Worried more
for your friends than for yourself?
I always liked
that virtuous quality of yours.
Including the contradiction
of your existence.
Although you live for the purpose
of serving others,
you were born as a killing machine
to eradicate your fellow cells.
From my point of view,
you are pitiful, miserable,
but also fascinating.
You don't know a thing about me.
Don't talk too much, you shitty boy!
Cancer Cell! I'll kill you!
Out of the question.
You are not to attack fellow cells.
You were repeating the same
conversation from earlier!
Are you stupid?
Shut up!
Stop. Retorting. My. Every. Word!
Me too.
You can only attack from the front?
Hey, try delivering
a different attack, you stupid!
Shut up! I've always been
like this, you idiot!
Indeed. You have always been like this.
Unable to strategize,
getting carried away,
unable to achieve victory,
and reluctant to learn from defeat.
You won't be able to beat me this way.
Throwing random punches is useless.
Determine your attacks with a sound mind.
We're surrounded. What should we do?
Lactic acid bacteria.
Good bacteria
that help the body's performance.
These bacteria have a variety
of special characteristics.
It's okay, Lactic Acid Bacteria.
I will protect you…
Oh, that Ordinary Cell is protecting
that Lactic Acid Bacteria.
Interesting.
Harmful bacteria.
Examples include Escherichia coli,
Staphylococcus aureus,
and Clostridium perfringens.
They break down protein
and make toxic substances.
I wonder how far this Ordinary Cell
will protect that bacteria.
Can you withstand
the poisonous gas of harmful bacteria?
Dangers of harmful bacteria.
Dangers caused by harmful bacteria
include putrefaction of intestines,
production of toxins,
and the creation
of carcinogenesis substances.
These dangerous effects
would inflict diseases,
jeopardizing the health of a body.
Examples of such diseases include
weakened immunity,
diarrhea, and constipation.
My legs!
Please entertain us, Ordinary Cell!
We've been so disappointed because
the world behind the walls is so boring!
This is just the start,
so prepare your best reaction.
What's this nonsense attack?
Lactic Acid Bacteria!
You scrubby good bacteria!
Even though you are a bacteria,
how dare you side with the cells?
Try opposing me one more time,
and I'll destroy you first!
Don't come closer!
Lactic Acid Bacteria,
go as far as you can!
Don't mind me!
You have to run! Hurry!
Stupid! Hurry and run!
This cell…
Go, hurry!
Get lost!
You're showing a very boring drama.
I'm so sorry, Lactic Acid Bacteria.
To bid you farewell like this…
But I'm glad.
If you can survive, then that's enough.
Be strong, Lactic Acid Bacteria.
So have you prepared yourself?
Entertain us!
The situation is getting serious,
White Blood Cell.
Our fight has just begun!
Next on Cells at Work!
"Cancer Cell II, Part Two."
The one who just spoke is…
Antigen found!
