"It's the greatest show time!" "There's no doubt." "He's here." "Who?" "Be careful." "He's a traitor." "There's someone who keeps looking at you." "See?" "he's a friend." "Please turn your attention to this gentleman!" "three!" "There he is!" "Get him!" "Grab my hand!" "I let him get away again!" "Aren't you the one who got away?" "One more time!" "Take that!" "But what about the rest of it?" "You were in my dream." "Everyone is startled at first." "The DC Mini." "It's the scientific key that allows us to open the door to our dreams." "It can even do all this?" "It really is a dream machine." "the DC Mini is still incomplete." "we'll be able to enter your dream even while awake." "You said he was a friend." "We used to work together." "Why did he put you in a cage?" "I don't know." "He's not the kind of person who would trick me." "Why are they all me?" "That was really disturbing." "right?" "perhaps?" "The fighting was rather fun." "REM sleep that occurs later during the sleep cycle is longer and easier to analyze." "artsy film shorts later cycles are like feature-length blockbuster movies." "Then that makes you a dream movie star." "Do you not like movies?" "It's not that." "What is this?" "The victim in the homicide case I'm working on right now." "so maybe that's why I..." "Your anxiety neurosis." "Do you think this is the source?" "No need to rush." "The treatment's just getting started." "Captain Konakawa." "When can I see you again?" "I'm in a bind." "it's not that." "I was on my way to see you." "It's not that!" "The DC Mini!" "It was stolen?" "The DC Mini?" "We found out this morning." "Three samples in Dr. Tokita's possession were stolen." "But why?" "We'll worry about the reason later." "We need to find them now." "Do you think it's internal?" "Unfortunately." "We'll talk about that later." "Foundation for Psychiatric Research" "Meet me in my office." "We'll figure out a plan before the chairman finds out." "we have to protect the DC Mini." "but all we have to do is make another one." "You should know better than anyone what can happen if it's misused." "You invented it." "At-chan." "Don't call me At-chan." "There is one more problem." "Good grief." "I hadn't programmed the access controls into the DC Mini yet." "Translate that for me." "It means that the person who stole the DC Mini... from any place and use it to intrude into the minds connected to that machine." "Chief's Office" "I see." "We have to hurry." "It is man's responsibility to control science and technology." "Chairman." "Sharing in another's dream." "It is quite literally a technological dream... it can lead to violence." "It was an invention that never should have been created." "This discussion again?" "The DC Mini represents the hope that shines on the new horizons of psychiatric treatment." "It is taking control over dreams." "Your overconfidence will bring weakness." "It is not about control." "We are simply pursuing a deeper connection with our patients." "The terrorist who stole it won't see it that way." "But it hasn't even been misused yet." "Thieves are not always wrong." "Paprika." "I hear there's a woman who's been using the psychotherapy machine for unapproved treatments." "chairman?" "Discipline calls for a search of the DC Mini rather than Paprika's bikini." "This is true happiness." "Discipline?" "Even the five court ladies danced in sync to the frog's flutes and drums." "The whirlwind of recycled paper was a sight to see." "It was like computer graphics!" "That I don't support Technicolor parfaits and snobby petit bourgeois is common knowledge in Oceania!" "Now is the time to return home to the blue sky!" "The confetti will dance around the shrine gates." "The mailbox and the refrigerator will lead the way!" "Anyone who cares about expiration dates will not get in the way of the glory train!" "They need to fully realize the liver of the triangle rulers!" "this festival was decided by the third-grade class with the telephoto camera!" "Move forward!" "Come together!" "I am the ultimate governor!" "Chief!" "Now!" "Right now!" "Take me in!" "He has the dream of a patient planted in his brain." "How's the chief doing ?" "His breathing and pulse are stable." "I guess it could've been worse." "here are the chief's medical records." "Thank you." "He was probably using the therapy machine to treat a patient" "When someone used a DC Mini to intrude." "And the dream was projected into his subconscious without him knowing." "But for that to happen..." "The culprit has to be watching this nightmare too." "What a desperate terrorist." "All terrorists are desperate." "The sun during midday will light up the dark night." "Night dreams of day." "Light dreams of darkness." "But the ignorant sun will chase away the darkness and burn the shadows eventually burning itself!" "Himuro!" "The shade of the tree with the flowers that bloom at night is where the residents of darkness rest." "Why is Himuro in there?" "The people of daytime are not allowed!" "Where is Himuro?" "but I didn't think too much of it." "Himuro tends to abandon everything else when he really gets into something." "like assistant." "How could we not have seen this coming?" "I thought he was my friend." "A genius produces a lot more than he realizes." "please." "Himuro was jealous of Dr. Tokita." "Dr. Chiba." "I'm not as good as you." "I feel powerless." "It's open." "you know." "though." "Welcome home." "Welcome back." "He can't be serious." "This is dangerous." "This isn't your cue." "Anaphylaxis?" "Like an allergy?" "I can't think of any other reason." "I got stung by a jellyfish when I was a kid..." "I have allergic reactions at the sight of one." "It didn't occur to me until now." "Here you go." "Who had the udon set?" "But the DC Mini uses a transmission formula within the natural width of the body's energy level." "Who had the jumbo steak set?" "the body might adapt to it." "who has had the most exposure was more susceptible to invasion... nor was she asleep." "Who had the paella?" "I think you have a problem too." "Like overeating." "I can't fight on an empty stomach." "Fight?" "Implanting dreams into other people's heads is terrorism." "you said that Himuro and I were alike." "I think so too." "All the more reason this is unforgivable." "Hello?" "We'll be there immediately." "come back!" "Wake up!" "Chief!" "The delicious left brain is getting older and drifting to a faraway island." "give him back!" "am the protector of your dreams." "I wonder what kind of punishment will befall the ignorant commoner who tries to enter this sacred dream?" "You're the feisty country girl I saved some time ago." "How are you?" "If he was not home when I passed by around 7:30 then he probably disappeared into the instant noodle soup." "Thank you for saving me." "I have come to show you my appreciation." "Is it a square?" "No." "like this." "I can feel it." "Paprika." "Do you remember me now?" "I'm going to be a little rough." "what are you doing?" "stop that." "Chief." "I wonder where that parade was going?" "most likely." "I felt like I was really close to controlling the entire world." "That was a dream of a severely delusional patient." "your brain waves and body deteriorated almost to the point of death." "That's why Paprika came." "Thank you." "You haven't changed since the time you treated my depression two years ago." "I'll let Paprika know." "But to think that that honest Himuro was responsible." "Dr. Chiba?" "Please don't do anything." "What?" "The chairman will probably halt the development of the DC Mini as a result of this incident." "in the hospital..." "They can't have a meeting." "Konokawa." "How was the...?" "You know." "I would have asked sooner if I had known that it would be this good." "you can't tell anyone." "I want to keep it a secret all to myself." "Paprika's existence cannot become public until the psychotherapy machines gain public approval." "She really is a woman of your dreams." "Women of dreams are busy these days." "You look tired." "Want me to look in on your dreams?" "I haven't been seeing any of my own lately." "Welcome." "We were waiting for you." "Good evening." "What is this place?" "A counseling room." "A meeting place." "A date spot." "Don't you think dreams and the Internet are similar?" "They are both areas where the repressed conscious mind vents." "Here you go." "Have you found anything?" "In regards to my dreams?" "You're so impatient." "Do you work at the research foundation?" "after all." "Where do you know Mr. Shima from?" "He's a friend from college." "so we always hung out." "Drinking and watching movies?" "movies don't interest me." "I love them!" "Paprika?" "Put it on my tab." "Paprika!" "Which one do you want to see?" "but movies really aren't my thing." "hurry!" "I don't like movies!" "stop" "Breaking news!" "The widow who tells fortunes in the shade of roof tiles!" "The response is sunny!" "The sign of good fortune!" "The ceiling fan brings a message releasing epithets!" "The maiden who sleeps under the veranda has a pulse!" "This is the way out!" "The secret of this view is deep within the 10-year loan payment!" "They are new victims." "I am stopping development." "But the board meeting" "The culprit won't wait for a board meeting to happen." "I am forbidding all use of DC Mini and the psychotherapy machines." "This is retribution." "Science is nothing but a piece of trash before a profound dream." "Are you okay?" "I heard the parts are non-recyclable." "But that's an important piece of equipment." "I'll just have to make it again." "He's a genius." "all right." "You're giving him too much credit." "He's just a kid inside." "DREAMLAND but I liked it as a kid." "I used to talk about it with Himuro." "Do you really think Himuro is here?" "I wouldn't be searching." "At-chan." "You should act more like Paprika." "I know." "I have a feeling he's near." "both of you." "Watch out!" "Himuro?" "That's" "A DC Mini." "The high pressure holds the grab bag and looks a lot like milk." "The dense forest turns into a shopping district." "The 24-bit eggplant will be analyzed." "So you're saying both of them were attacked by way of the DC Mini which broke their psyches." "was also disturbed by the nightmare and tried to commit suicide." "Is that right?" "It's not because of the DC Mini!" "It's just a little incomplete." "Himuro knew that." "I'm not refuting your invention." "She's the head of the DC Mini development team." "I'm Chiba." "This is Mr. Konakawa from the police department." "Yes?" "Isn't it wonderful?" "The ability to see a friend's dream as if it were your own." "To share the same dream." "it probably would be a wonderful experience." "right?" "It came to me during a brain scan I was doing using a computer image processor." "And you can use it to treat illness." "That's exactly right!" "The nonlinear waves created by surges in the bioelectrical current can be applied to create new synapse connections by adjusting the BTU output." "To use a person's body for energy is a remarkable idea." "Exactly!" "And the reason why I focused... right?" "isn't it?" "Paprika." "So what do you think about this case?" "I think it's an accident." "It's hard to build a case against a dream." "eh?" "The bulky one." "To think such a silly thought would lead to such an invention." "He's a kid trapped inside the body of a genius." "It's an adult's responsibility to steer that genius in the right direction." "Chairman." "There is always conceit and negligence behind misconduct." "I guess." "Good grief." "Where did I go wrong to end up here?" "I want to go back to our college days back to when we used to talk about our futures." "I want to go back to our college days back to when we used to talk about our futures." "But what about the rest of it?" "It's too dangerous!" "Himuro went in and he's not coming back." "If the same happens to you..." "There are still two DC Minis out there." "Our only lead is inside Himuro." "And besides..." "The chairman has already prohibited the use of the therapy machines." "Desperate times call for desperate measures." "Don't worry." "The genius boy is here for backup." "Dr. Tokita again?" "I know that you two established this field so that's all the more reason for you to place your trust in him but his immaturity is the cause of all these mishaps!" "That's why we'll make him take responsibility." "is there anyone else?" "This isn't the time for that." "There are people in the world that understand." "That cop." "He has a mind for science." "though." "Now all I have to do is set the filtering program for external access and" "What was that for?" "Do you really think it was Himuro?" "and he knew the risks involved with the DC Mini." "He knew what would happen if he exposed himself for too long." "What did he have to gain from it all?" "He was jealous of me." "Even Osanai says so." "He might be a victim too." "That's like a line from a mystery novel." "then it's still dangerous." "We need to confirm" "No more talk." "What I need to do is finish this." "You guys are really alike." "At-chan?" "You and Himuro." "You get preoccupied with what you want to do and ignore what you have to do." "Don't you understand that your irresponsibility cost lives?" "Of course not." "Nothing can get through all that fat." "And now what? "Isn't it wonderful"?" ""A mind for science"?" "Don't make me laugh." "How can a mad scientist know what a human mind is?" "If you want to be king of geeks with your bloated ego then just keep up all this and indulge in your freakish masturbation!" "And where is Mr. Konakawa now?" "At a hotel." "It's all here." "I'm counting on you." "There's no doubt." "He's here." "You've crossed the line of action." "Be careful." "He's a traitor." "You need to narrow the exposure." "This is Panfocus." "three!" "There he is!" "Get him!" "Welcome." "What floor?" "I'm after him." "Of course." "The 14th floor." "the adventure section." "the suspense section." "the romance section." "One more time!" "the special section." "No!" "I don't need to go there." "Encore!" "I killed myself?" "That's like a line from a mystery novel." "but I put an access function on it." "responsibilities..." "I don't really get that adults' stuff." "But let's talk it over again." "right?" "jeez." "Was making them not enough?" "You had to become a doll yourself?" "Why did you steal it?" "Do you hate me that much?" "Or was it not you who did it?" "Even with an access function it's not one person's dream anymore." "That's right!" "The DC Mini was both our dreams!" "The crossing of two dreams creates many more dreams." "That's right!" "The entire development team dreamt of its completion." "This is a foolish place to be to inquire about the master of this dream." "The conceit of the daytime residents is what the nighttime residents want." "To come in carelessly is like a moth to a flame." "are you?" "What's the line of action that clown was talking about?" "It's an imaginary line that connects the subjects on camera." "If the camera crosses that line the cut is awkward." "That's why it has to be like this." "I see." "How about Panfocus?" "It's a camera technique where you narrow the angle to get the entire screen in focus." "So you did like them." "Movies." "Are your dreams in Panfocus now too?" "Have you solved the mystery of why you killed yourself?" "I've never thought of suicide." "Maybe it's someone a lot like you." "Like me?" "Or another you." "Another me?" "is the inside of my head this messed up?" "The dreams are merging." "Tokita." "He got started without me!" "Wait!" "Tokita!" "Paprika!" "Why are you here?" "The ecstasy that blooms in synapse is Paprika-brand milk fat!" "Five percent is the norm." "Tokita!" "No!" "The safety net of the ocean... even with what crabs dream of!" "Let's go!" "Wake up!" "So you're saying the dreams of Tokita and Himuro merged into Konakawa's dream?" "The anaphylaxis of the DC Mini is expanding exponentially!" "Just meet me at the lab." "They're not dreaming?" "But they're in REM sleep." "It's as if their consciousness itself has been taken away." "I guess this calls for Paprika." "I'll dive into Himuro's dream." "That's the only way to save Tokita." "can you hear me?" "I hear you loud and clear." "Any abnormalities?" "This dream is very dangerous." "use the awakening apparatus." "Of course." "But is it really safe?" "Tokita is gone because he went into Himuro's dream." "Who do you think I am?" "I'm sorry to have doubted you." "There they are!" "Himuro isn't there." "But it's his dream." "Osanai?" "Be careful." "Leave it to me." "Himuro." "Wake her up!" "Chief!" "Hurry!" "That's not Himuro's dream anymore." "So he was a victim too." "He's an empty shell." "He was invaded by a collective dream." "A collective dream?" "With no access restrictions the DC Mini can be used to invade any psychotherapy machine." "Every dream it came in contact with was eaten up into one huge delusion." "And that delusion belongs to..." "This breath seethes in the joy of life." "I will not allow arrogant scientific technology to intrude in this holy ground." "Return Dr. Tokita to us." "The dreams are horrified that their safe refuge is destroyed by technology." "Are you going to punish him like you did Himuro?" "In a world of inhumane reality it is the only humane sanctuary left." "That is a dream." "That parade is full of refugees who were unwillingly chased out of reality." "You are collecting those with stolen technology." "Do you plan to take over the world of dreams?" "I am protecting them." "I am the guardian of dreams." "Paprika." "Don't make me get rough with you." "huh?" "wake up!" "Paprika!" "Chiba!" "Chiba!" "Paprika!" "The sphinx look doesn't suit you." "An intelligent researcher by day... is that it?" "Shut up!" "I have many faces." "That makes me human!" "Oedipus is the perfect look for a man completely controlled by the chairman!" "Shut up!" "keep running." "There are no boundaries to dreams." "The spirit will be freed from the constraints of the body and gain limitless freedom." "Including me!" "I will also be free!" "The dream continues from here." "No!" "Paprika!" "It's a trap!" "Chief!" "Wake her up!" "Hurry!" "What a lovely sight." "Osanai!" "What's this?" "Let me go!" "But I finally caught you." "Where is Tokita?" "I have no interest in such ugly things." "because you're not." "You were Himuro's idol after all." "Shut up!" "Just shut up!" "didn't you?" "Don't remind me!" "You coward!" "Stop it!" "and you'll do as I say." "hand-chosen by the chairman." "you used to be smarter than that." "You don't know its true power!" "complete." "better than complete." "We can now go back and forth between dreams and reality... while awake." "You were the one who set up Atsuko at Himura's place." "It was just a friendly warning to a terrorist threatening dreams." "You're just like an old baldy I know." "We are the chosen ones assigned to protect the sanctuary threatened by technology that has lost its philosophy." "You're just twisted." "You should understand." "Dreams are so sacred they cannot be controlled" "What would you know?" "You're just a little man controlled by jealousy." "You really think you can beat Tokita?" "don't make me get rough." "You should call it a night." "I'm drunk." "The fact that I know I'm drunk is proof that I'm sober." "This isn't a real bar... and you're not a real bartender." "Right?" "I'm sober even if odds and sods go around in my head." "right?" "Do you not like the number 17?" "The conspiratorial 17." "You're familiar with movies as if you've made them before." "I did." "Shot an independent on an 8mm." "It was child's play." "When you were in high school?" "When I was 17" "It's a silly cop story." "Two men who used to be best friends are now fugitive and cop engaged in a chase." "They just keep running and flashbacks of their past play throughout." "Very experimental." "That guy..." "How could I have forgotten about him until now?" "He was always one step ahead of me." "He was smart and popular with the girls." "I could never catch up with him." "I was frustrated at myself for not being frustrated with him." "He really was a good guy." "We talked about making movies together." "But I gave up." "I didn't have the confidence." "I left the unfinished movie for him to deal with." "And that friend now?" "He died." "but he was sick." "He didn't tell me." "I betrayed him." "I was his partner." "I was his counterpart." "He was the other" "The other me." "But what about the rest of it?" "!" "Wait!" "Why do you dress like a girl?" "Paprika!" "The real you is more befitting of me." "Paprika!" "please... perverted prince!" "You have a bad habit of trying to manipulate people with your words." "And you think you can manipulate people with power?" "yes." "I love you." "I love you as you are." "I will show no mercy for those who defy me." "Chairman..." "You cannot hide anything from me." "not her." "Not her!" "Can you not control even one sensual desire?" "Please!" "Please spare her!" "Why won't you obey me?" "You are nothing without me!" "But I love her." "Paprika!" "Are you okay?" "I knew you were Paprika." "What are you doing?" "You will obey!" "Disgusting." "You fool." "Swayed by a mere woman." "I'm too anxious to dream!" "Konakawa?" "Shima?" "Is that you?" "Konakawa." "Why are you in Chiba's dream?" "Why are you a monkey?" "What's going on?" "I'll explain later." "Just go!" "Go where?" "To your dream!" "Don't get in the way of my dream!" "This is my dream." "You get out!" "I am justice!" "Freeze!" "How's that for traumatic?" "What about the rest of it?" "!" "It's coming up right now!" "I'll end it!" "That hurts." "It's over." "Chief." "Is this really the real world?" "I think so." "See?" "It hurt a lot." "But why was Konakawa in your dream?" "Paprika was saved by Mr. Konakawa." "The chairman and Osanai..." "Tokita!" "What about Tokita?" "Osanai!" "What's wrong?" "Osanai!" "No!" "No!" "Osanai!" "You can't go!" "That body is mine!" "I will not allow you to act on your own!" "My noble spirit needs that body!" "I will be complete!" "Something's wrong." "but what just happened with Osanai." "Don't worry." "We just need to get the mastermind." "A happy ending is right around the corner." "But that mastermind is lost in his own delusion." "No problem." "We have backup." "Mr. Konakawa." "The number you called for assisting young children is not available because of crowded tires in the Pacific Ocean starting at 7:63 a.m." "The battle has ended." "Now it's showtime!" "Today's weather is dreamy... sunny day." "The dream I had yesterday and today." "The happy and mundane world will vent their anger." "The dreams will grow and grow." "Let's grow the tree that blooms money." "It's most valuable while it's still a bud." "so we shall preserve the memory forever." "there will be no fruit." "then I won't do anything." "please put a vote in this eyeball." "Who would give up this throne?" "chosen by the lord himself!" "I didn't choose you!" "I didn't choose you!" "God and Buddha will change religions." "The happy and mundane world will vent their anger." "Am I still dreaming?" "the whole world is." "You forgot this." "Thank you." "let's go." "Where?" "To clean up this mess." "Dreams and reality are merging?" "Is this because of the DC Mini too?" "Chief!" "Hold on!" "Paprika?" "No time for questions." "Hurry up!" "Why are you here?" "Desperate times call for desperate measures." "Hurry!" "We have to get the mastermind!" "It's as if we're in a dream." "Hurry!" "Paprika!" "Don't think you're always right." "Tokita." "Atsuko." "I have to help Tokita." "Leave that irresponsible fatso." "Why don't you listen?" "You're a part of me!" "Have you ever thought that maybe you are a part of me?" "Do as I say!" "To think that you can control yourself and others." "You're just like an old baldy I know." "Let's go." "We need to stop that old baldy and his excursions." "Now!" "No!" "I can't just leave Tokita because I..." "Because what?" "Chiba!" "hasn't she?" "An overweight spirit needs no diet!" "to anywhere you please!" "wake up!" "It's me!" "The one I've been waiting for since historic times!" "Your flute's melody is a sound for sore neurons!" "try to remember." "At-chan!" "A fragrant fat is a first-class lunch!" "It needs a little more spice." "Maybe a little paprika?" "What is this?" "A big hole." "I can see that!" "It's connected." "To the other world." "The other" " You mean...?" "What should we do?" "Run?" "You think so too?" "Well-rounded achievement is missing a spice." "Paprika found!" "Paprika!" "Shima!" "Are you two okay?" "Mr." "Konakawa!" "Konakawa." "Chiba?" "I'm in a bind." "I can see that." "It's not that!" "Sorry." "You're such a slob." "I know." "slow and sloppy." "but there's a limit to that too." "Yeah." "a food disposal like you is the genius of the century." "I swallow everything." "I know." "You're so much fun." "Atsuko is dreaming." "What is that?" "Our chairman!" "I feel great!" "I am reborn!" "Look!" "I am standing!" "With my own legs!" "I am perfect!" "and even death!" "to make the cosmos complete I shall heal all deficiencies!" "Lord of Darkness!" "Light and dark." "Reality and dreams." "Life and death." "Man and...?" "Woman?" "Woman?" "Then you add the missing spice." "Paprika?" "Paprika?" "Bingo." "Paprika!" "The new cosmos begins with me!" "Who is eating up my dream?" "Is that Paprika?" "it's a girl." "Why won't you obey?" "Have we awoken from the dream?" "I just had the best dream." "I had a good dream too." "The first in a long time." "I guess I've been dumped." "You mean you were serious?" "But Paprika is a woman in your dreams." "That's true." "I'll see her in my dreams again some day." "How are your dreams going?" "I almost forgot about it." "Did you find out what was causing it?" "The cause..." "You didn't do anything wrong." "You just lived out our movie in real life." "That's why you became a cop." "It's truth that came from fiction." "Always remember that." "all the truths and the fiction." "Welcome." "I have a message for you from Miss Paprika." "I heard you caught the perpetrator in that homicide case." "Congratulations." "I also have an announcement:" "Atsuko's last name will change to Tokita." "P.S." "The movie Dreaming Kids was very good." "I recommend it." "Dreaming Kids" "please."
