Fullmetal Alchemist - Brotherhood - Episode 9


Narrator: In search of the dark secrets of the Philosopher Stone, Ed and Al break into the supposedly deserted Fifth Laboratory. There they encounter two guards who, like Al have had their souls bonded to suits of armor. In the course of their fight, Al's opponent, 66, plants suspicion in his mind. Al begins to wonder if he's a counterfeit soul created by Ed and bonded to a suit of armor to become the older boy's biddable puppet.
.......
Maria: Looks like you can sit up now, huh?

Edward: What happened with the Fifth Laboratory?

Denny: Well, it, uhm...

Maria: Somebody blew up the building and there's nothing left of it now but rubble.

Edward: DAMN IT! YOU MEAN THEY WIPED OUT EVERYTHING?
....
Edward: That didn't feel good... This isn't fair... Do you know how close I was to finding out the truth? This is no time for me to be lying around in a hospital.
...
Denny and Maria: FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST, SIR!

Edward: Huh?

Denny and Maria: WE DO APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE FOR THIS!

Edward: Huh?
...
Maria: You acted like a selfish child! You only escaped with your life because you were lucky!
...
Maria: You don't have to do everything on your own, you know. You can lean on other people. Like us. Not all adults are the enemy. You can trust us.
...
Denny and Maria: THAT'S ALL! PLEASE FORGIVE OUR ABUSIVE WORDS AND CONDUCT, SIR! IT WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN.

Edward: No. You're right. I should be apologizing.

Maria: My punishment? For slapping you?

Edward: Huh? Nothing. I had it coming.
....
Edward: What got you two so scared of me?

Maria: State-certified Alchemists carry a military rank equivalent to that of a major.

Denny: Mm hmm.

Edward: Don't worry about it. I didn't get my certification so people would kiss up to me. You don't have to talk to me like a high ranking officer.

Maria: Really? Oh.

Denny: Ahh. I guess we were scared of the brat for nothing.

Edward (thinking): They adjust quickly!

Edward: Oh, where's Al? I haven't seen him.

Denny: Alphonse got his own lecture earlier. But, I was the one who did the slap.
....
Edward: I almost forgot. I have an even less pleasant lecture in store for me today.

Denny and Maria: Huh?
.....
Winry: Hello? Rockbell's Prosthetic Limb Outfitters. Oh, Ed. Since when do you ever bother to call us? Is something wrong?

Edward: Yeah. Here's the deal. I hate to ask you, but, do you think you can make a service call out to Central for me?

Winry: A service call?

Edward: Yeah

Winry: My right arm's messed up again. I can move the fingers but that's about it. I can't lift the arm at all.
....
Winry: Yeah, that sounds about right.

Edward: Huh?

Winry: Nothing, just talking to myself. So what were you doing when the arm stopped working?

Edward: Uhh, I was in a really rough fight.
...
In Edward's head: You did it again, moron? How can you treat my precious automail like that, you alchemy freak?
..
Edward: Are you there? Hello? Winry?

Winry: Guess I've got no choice. Tell me how to get there.
...
Edward: You're sure in good mood today. I thought you were gonna... You know what, nevermind. Forget it. Yeah. Yup. Sorry again, and thanks. Right. Good bye.
...
Denny: Aww, was that your girlfriend?

Edward: MY GIRLFRIEND? NO WAY!
....
Denny: There's nothing to be embarrassed about. When I was your age, I had a different girlfriend every week.
...
Edward: What are you doing, sitting in the dark all by yourself? Hey! Hey Al!
...
Alphonse: Brother.

Edward: You know you can come to the room, right?
...
Alphonse: I'll be there in a little while. You go on ahead.

Edward: Okay.
.....
Kid: Bye!
....
"66: Are you sure you're not a puppet created by your so-called 'brother'?"
.....
Winry: Ugh, that left me really sore. I don't understand how Ed and Al can ride on these things?
...
Winry: Ed said to look near the West exit. Someone familiar's there who I'd recognize right away.
...
Winry: Hello Major Armstrong! It's Winry!
...
Alex: Hello, miss Winry. Did you have a pleasant trip?
...
Winry: Where are those stupid Elric brothers?
...
Alex: Well, you see...
....
Winry: THE HOSPITAL?
.....
Winry: What happened?

Edward: Well, that didn't take long. You're gonna charge me an express service fee now, aren't you?
..
Winry: No, I won't charge you for this. I didn't do a good enough job on your automail last time. And now you're badly injured.
....
Edward: It's not your fault, you can't blame yourself for this. I broke it because I was being reckless. Your repairs were flawless as ever. This was all my fault.
...
Winry (thinking): He has no idea. He never noticed that I forgot to put in that screw.
...
Edward: Besides, if my arm hadn't broken when it did, I would have kept fighting then I would have been hurt even worse. So don't worry about it, okay? okay?
...
Winry (thinking): So it turned out alright?
...
Winry: Well then, let's go ahead and get right down to business, shall we? I'll have to charge you the usual rush order fee of course.

Edward: Huh?
...
Winry: You didn't drink your milk.

Edward: Why should I? I hate it.

Winry: You're going to be small and stubby forever if you keep using that stupid excuse!

Edward: Shut up! I don't have to drink if I don't wanna!
....
Alex: You sound like a spoiled little brat, Edward Elric!

Maria: Every growing boy need his milk.

Denny: Yeah. You want the girls to like you, don't you?
....
Edward: Was that Al?
....
Edward: I don't get it. Al's been acting really weird lately.

Winry: Weird how?

Edward: Just seems like something's been bothering him.
.....
"66: Are you sure you're not a puppet created by your so-called 'brother'? Just accept it, you'll feel better."
.....
Winry: Ok. You're all set.

Edward: Well done. Ah, feels good to have it back. Thanks a lot.

Winry: Sure, no problem.
...
Maes: Yo! Ed, my boy! Is it true you brought a pretty blond girl into your room to service you?
....
Edward: She's my automail mechanic. That's all, nothing more!

Maes: Oh. I see. You've seduced your mechanic, have you?

Edward: No! That's not even what I said at all. Were you even listening to me?
....
Maes: Maes Hughes. I'm pleased to meet you, young lady.

Winry: You too. I'm Winry Rockbell.

Edward: Nice to see you, Hughes. But don't you have work to do?

Maes: Nope. It's all under control. I gave Sheska some overtime.

Edward: You're a real jerk, aren't you?

Maes: Oh, yeah, and I think you'll be happy to know I just found out you and Al shouldn't need to be kept under guard for too much longer.

Edward: Great!
...
Winry: What did you say? Hold on just a second. How much trouble have you gotten yourself into this time?

Edward: Well... You see, it's...
...
Edward: Well, it's nothing that concerns you.
....
Winry: Of course, not. I don't know why I bother to try. It's not like you'll talk to me anyway.
...
Winry: Fine. I'll see you tomorrow. I'll have to go and see if I can find some place to stay tonight.

Maes: Come on. No need for that. Why don't you spend the night at my place?

Winry: Really?

Maes: Yes, of course. My wife and daughter will be delighted to have you.

Winry: No, I...

Maes: It's settled. Come on, come on. Here, let me take that. Oh, I've got it. Let's go!

Winry: Do you really have to drag me?
.....
Everyone: Happy birthday, Elicia!
...
Winry: Uhm, if you don't mind me asking, Mr. Hughes, what is this all about?

Maes: I'm so glad you asked that, miss Winry. Today happens to be my darling little Elicia's birthday!

Elicia: Yummy birthday!
...
Winry: That's exciting. How old are you now, Elicia?
...
Elicia: I'm two. No, I'm three.
...
Winry and Maes: Oh how adorable!
.....
Winry: I've known the Elrics for about as long as I can remember. We grew up together. They are like my brothers.

Maes: And I'm sure, knowing those two, they must give you plenty to worry about.

Winry: That's an understatement. When they finally came back for a visit, it was because Ed's arm was all busted up.
...
Winry: And now he calls me out here because he's been seriously injured again. Something's bothering Al too. They keep their mouth shut, though. They don't ever tell me what's going. It's just like when they left Resembool for the first time.

Maes: Maybe nothing needed to be said. You need know these boys, Winry. It's possible they thought you'd understand without them saying anything.

Winry: Maybe. But there are some things that I actually need to be told.

Maes: Just what I am gonna do with you. In general, men prefer to let their actions speak instead of words. When they are in pain, they don't want to burden anyone with it, not if they can help it. They don't want anyone to worry about them. That's how they are. Even so, there may come a time when they'll ask for your help. And when they do, I know that you'll be there for them. Isn't that enough?
....
Kid 1: Elicia, we want to play. Let's go!

Elicia: Will you put me down now?

Winry: Ok. Down you go.

Kid 2: Hey, you get away from her. Elicia wants to play with me, not you.

Kid 1: Huh, no way.
....
Winry: She's quite a heart-breaker already, isn't she?
....
Maes: Listen up, boys. You try anything to my daughter, and you'll answer to me.

Winry: Your action speaks too loudly!
.....
Gracia: Are you sure you have to go? You're more than welcomed to stay with us as long as you're in town.

Winry: I don't want to put you out more than I have already.
...
Gracia: Elicia has gotten very attached to you.

Maes: Well would you look at that, the two of you could be sisters.

Elicia: Sissy! Be safe okay? And come back and visit me real soon.

Gracia: It's settled, you are staying with us again tonight.
...
Winry: It looks like I've found myself a little sister.
.....
Edward: So we meet again, you little bastard. I'm not gonna drink you.

Alphonse: Brother, you have a living body that needs nourishment.
...
Alphonse: you have to drink it.

Edward: I don't have to if I don't want to.
...
Edward: It may not look like it, but I have grown some. But everyone still call me a pipsqueak. I wish I was like you Al. You've got such a big body now.
....
Alphonse: It's not like I asked for this body, brother!
...
Edward: Sorry. You're right. It's my fault that it happened. But I'll make it right. I'll get you back in your real body. You'll see, Al.

Alphonse: That's what you always say but you don't know that for sure.

Edward: Look, look, I'm promise I'm gonna get you back. Believe me, Al. I'll do it.

Alphonse: Believe you? How am I suppose to believe anything when I’m stuck in this body! What should I believe in? My memories? Memories are just scraps of information that can be made up as easily as anything else!

Edward: Al, wha... what are you talking about?

Alphonse: Do you remember when you said there was something you were afraid to tell me?
...
Alphonse: I think,I think I might know what it was. Maybe you wanted to say that my soul and my memories are really artificial constructions you created. You, Winry, and Granny, you’ve been lying to me all along, haven’t you? What do you have to say for yourself, Brother!
...
Edward: Is that what you really think? If you believed that all this time?
...
Edward: So are you finish? Or is there more you wanted to say?
....
Edward: Okay.
...
Winry: Don't go. Ed!
....
Winry: Al...
...
Winry: You MORON!
...
Alphonse: Where's does that come from?
...
Alphonse: Winry?
...
Winry: You idiot! You have no ideas how Ed feels! Do you know what he was so afraid to talk to you about? He wants to know if you blame him for what happened to your body, Al!
.....
Edward: It's all my fault. Al lost his body and it’s all my fault! He can’t eat anymore, he can’t sleep, he can’t feel cold or warmth. He’s my little brother and I’m suppose to protect him and I did this! How could he ever forgive me!

Pinako: Al isn't the type of boy who would resent you for this. If you just ask him I’m sure you’ll see.

Edward: No. I'm, I’m too afraid. I’m too scared of what he’ll say.
....
Winry: And then,... You idiot! You said that! Who'd ever do something like that.
