"Moomin" "Even you, who always tries to keep strong, - will have moments when you need to shed tears." "In those moments, just cry your heart out, - and then you will find that the sadness quickly disappears." "Come, come here to where I am." "Come and hold out your little hand to me." "I shall take you to the world of dreams." "As long as you have an honest heart, all is well." "Moomin Fights a Pirate" "Under his command, Captain Blood and his pirate crew - have been fighting against the storm for a while now." "The captain knew that their ship won't last for much longer." "They can't possibly reach land in this storm." ""I'm a man of the sea, thus I am at peace with dying at sea."" ""I'm sure my crew feels the same way."" ""However, the princess doesn't."" ""The lovely princess whom we carried off along with our treasures..."" ""We cannot let her die here, not at sea."" "The captain felt his heart ache as he thought - of the princess in the lower deck cabin." "Is that book fun?" "Yes, very much." "The storm doesn't show any signs of letting up." "Yes..." "I'm glad I'm here." "If I stayed home alone in this storm, I would've been very frightened." "What was that sound?" "It was probably a tree branch breaking." "Moomin." "Would you read that book aloud for us?" "I'm not good at reading aloud though." "That's not true." "Please?" "If you read it aloud, then I won't - notice the scary storm sounds outside." "Yes." "I would like to listen to it too." "Do you mind if I don't read from the start?" "Well, that's fine." "But could you summarize for us what happened before that?" "To put it shortly..." "There's this gallant pirate named Captain Blood." "One day, they pilfered the royal family's ship and - took along the princess who happened to be on it." "It sounds like a story from long ago." "Why?" ""..." "They recovered quickly and steadily pressed on through the raging storm."" "Hm, great work, if I may say so myself." "I suppose I'll stop here for today." "Captain Blood noticed that the princess had collapsed." ""I must have caused such terrible feelings for the - princess, all alone at the bottom of this ship."" "As he thought this, the captain felt a stabbing pain through his heart." ""I cannot let the princess die, no matter what!"" ""I need to save her!"" "Mama, do we have coffee?" "Shall I serve you some in your study?" "No need, I'm done working for the day." "Oh, is that so?" "Why don't we all take a break then?" "I've also gotten thirsty." "Thank you for reading to us." "Your reading was fabulous." "I'd love some juice." "I'd also love some raspberry juice." "Floren, did Snork say when he's coming back?" "He didn't give an exact day." "It might be tomorrow or the day after that." "It's good that we decided for you to stay over here while Snork was away." "Yes." "We couldn't leave Floren all alone in a storm like this." "Absolutely not." "Has it sunk?" "With these waves, it will soon." "We need to rescue the crew." "It's too dangerous with these waves." "I wonder if they're alright." "No one has reached this part of the shore." "Could they have swum towards another shore then, I wonder?" "I believe no one has seen any such survivors." "That was one raging storm last night." "Chief." "Yes?" "From what I've seen, I believe that ship is a pirate ship." "A pirate ship?" "I've been watching that ship from when only a third of it has sunk." "It had a pirate flag up on its mast." "Are you sure about that?" "Yes, I am." "Can you really see the flag from that far away, though?" "I can't see it at all." "I used this." "Oh." "Well, if you had such useful thing, say so from the start." "It's going to sink!" "It's finally going to sink!" "It has completely sunk." "If they have been pirating for a long time - now, their ship was probably old as well." "Then there's nothing strange about it going down." "Well, in the end though, we still weren't - sure whether it was a pirate ship or not." "Nothing got washed ashore, then?" "As far as I know, that's the case." "I got surprised." "I was reading a pirate book just last night." "I've seen real pirates before." "So pirates still do exist." "I'm jealous." "Oh?" "I think I want to become a pirate too." "Really?" "Really!" "Sailing the seas around world and living freely!" "It's awesome!" "Pirates go around stealing other people's things, though." "Well, there's that." "It'd be nice if pirates, and even bandits, didn't have to steal anything." "Then they won't be pirates anymore, they'll just be regular sailors." "Do you know where Moomin went?" "I don't." "I'm sure he's with Snufkin." "I suppose so." "Floren, I have a letter for you." "Let's see..." "It's from Snork." "Thank you." "My, can you wait just a moment?" "I'm just going to read my brother's letter." "Sure." "Oh dear." "What is it?" "It seems my brother is coming home today." "Today?" "He says it's just an estimate though, so the day still might change." "It would be nice if he makes it for supper." "You can have supper here tonight." "Snork as well." "Thank you, Mamma." "Since he said he's coming home today, I believe he was already able to purchase the materials and parts he needed." "He'll be starting on his airship by tomorrow then." "I believe he will." "Hey, hey." "If we became air pirates with Snork's - airship, it'd be really fun, don't you think?" "We'll never get caught!" "They're not here." "I wonder where they went..." "Not here either." "They probably went to a more interesting place." "An empty workplace would be nothing but boring." "I'm glad we came by though." "It looks like it's fine despite last night's storm." "What is it?" "Didn't you hear something just now?" "Where?" "From inside." "Is there someone..." "Oh!" "Snork must have returned, then!" "Oh, I see." "You're right." "Brother, are you here?" "Brother?" "Where are you?" "Floren?" "Who are you?" "Oh." "So it really was a pirate ship." "Yes." "We've also caught the pirates who washed ashore from their ship." "You've caught all of them?" "Well, we don't know how many of them were on the ship." "Then there might be some of them left - uncaught and wandering around Moominvalley." "Oh, then if I deal with them right, I might be able - to obtain some rare plants and seeds from them." "You little squirt!" "Hold it right there!" "Not again!" "Damn it!" "Why you...!" "Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ouch!" "Let go!" "Stop that!" "Ow, ow, ouch!" "Let Floren go this instant!" "You'll be suffering more of my teeth if you don't!" "This young lady here is my precious hostage." "I'm not letting her go that easily." "Oh?" "Then you better be prepared." "Prepared?" "Hold it!" "If you value this girl's life, don't come any closer." "Are you going to kill Floren?" "If I kill her, she won't be a very useful hostage, now would she?" "But she might suffer dearly depending on your actions." "If you want a hostage, I can take her place." "Just let Floren go!" "Not happening." "I don't think anyone would - come for you if I took you hostage." "Are you saying I have no value as a hostage?" "!" "Never mind what I said." "I want you to do something for me." "What's your name?" "I'm My." "I'm Captain Bad." "Go call the police and the village chief and bring them here." "Go and do a troubled man a favor, will you, My?" "If you promise absolutely not to hurt Floren, I guess I can do that for you." "I promise." "If you're even the slightest bit violent towards " "Floren while I'm gone, you'll pay for it." "I get the picture already, so just go." "I have only one request!" "Come out and let that girl go!" "Like hell I would!" "One basic pirate need is a nice, young, lovely hostage, you know." "If you want to save this girl, go and ready a ship!" "After that, you need to let me go back to the ocean." "Nonsense." "Now, listen here!" "All of your crew members are now our prisoners." "What?" "!" "You're the only one left." "This is the end for you!" "That's good news." "You have my thanks, Chief." "No need to thank me." "Now hurry up and come out." "Sure, I'll come out." "In exchange, release all of my crew!" "All of them, you hear?" "Also, prepare a big ship for us." "And then we shall all sail away!" "Darn it!" "It looks like our boss may have cheered that crook up quite a bit." "Chief, I'm begging you!" "Please save Floren soon!" "I understand, I do!" "However, I can't just give in to his demands this easily." "But Floren didn't do anything to deserve this!" "I know that, you don't need to tell me!" "Ah." "This is a disaster." "Hey!" "Captain Bad!" "Can you hear me?" "Go prepare my ship!" "And free my crew!" "Make sure there's not one left in your cells!" "I'm currently considering your demands!" "For now, just release Floren!" "We can discuss your demands more thoroughly after that!" "Enough talking!" "If you don't do as I say, I cannot guarantee this girl's life!" "Calm down and listen!" "There's no way we'd have a large ship around here, don't you think so?" "Think about it!" "That's your problem!" "I'll give you a deadline!" "Let's see..." "If you don't complete my demands within two hours, this girl's life shall be " "Oh, I'm not really serious about that." "But if I don't say that, they won't take me seriously." " This girl's life shall be naught!" "I'm just bluffing, alright?" "Alright, I'll believe you." "Get me that ship within two hours, - or else I'll cut this young lady's throat!" "Just imagine her drowning in the sea of death!" "I'm lying, alright?" "We need to do something!" "Two hours..." "It's impossible to get him that ship in two hours..." "What should I do?" "Calm down." "Calm down." "Think about it calmly." "Ah!" "Damn it!" "Chief, we have an idea." "We can climb to the roof, cut out a hole, and get inside through that " "We can't do that." "We'll endanger the girl's life, it's too risky." "How about smoking him out?" "We could burn that workshop from all sides - and then catch him right as he comes out!" "Shut it." "Don't say any more." "No..." "This isn't good." "I need to cool my head and stay calm in situations like these." "Hey, Captain Bad!" "Can you hear me, Captain?" "What is it?" "Do you have my ship?" "Oh." "Well..." "I thought about it..." "But I just don't think we can find you a large ship." "However, I can probably get you two or three yachts." "I want a ship!" "One that can sail throughout the Pacific, if need be!" "Come now, let's stay calm about this, Captain." "How about this?" "Just give up on the ship." "If you do, I shall set your men free this very instant." "All of them." "Of course, you can go free as well." "You can leave this village and go where ever you want by foot." "It's a good deal, don't you think?" "We're pirates!" "We have no intentions of becoming mere bandits!" "Being bandits isn't all that bad, you know." "Outside Moominvalley lies numerous beautiful mountains that will make you wish you're a bandit once you've seen them!" "This is the first time I've ever seen such a stupid police chief." "What?" "!" "Go get someone else." "I'm not dealing with you anymore." "I'm really angry now!" "Shut up!" "You're making a very big mistake if you think threats work on me!" "On top of cheering him up, the chief has now angered him." "Curse it all!" "This is the end of it all!" "Burn down that workshop!" "We're turning that cursed pirate into barbecue!" "Chief!" "Please!" "Calm down!" "Bring me my gun!" "I'm going to pepper that useless piece of meat with holes!" "I'll hang him!" "I'll mince him!" "I'll burn him on a stake!" "Chief!" "Please be quiet and calm down!" "Seriously!" "It's been thirty minutes!" "You only have an hour left!" "Do you mean to just watch silently as I kill this young lady?" "Floren!" "Don't worry!" "I'll save you!" "I promise!" "Water..." "Need water..." "Did you say something?" "I need water." "My throat is drying up." "Oh... but... well... brdfg..." "Hey!" "Bring the girl something to drink!" "She's thirsty!" "I will at once!" "Wait for me, Floren!" "I'm going to bring her drink." "No, you can't." "This is dangerous, so leave it to us policemen." "Just a moment, Chief." "Please let Moomin bring Floren her drink." "I just thought of an idea." "Snufkin!" "Only a brave young man can make this plan work." "Are you up for it, Moomin?" "Of course." "Darn it, what the hell are they doing?" "They're taking awfully long with that drink." "Excuse me..." "I just want to let you know " "I can still endure for a bit longer." "No, it's alright." "I'll make them bring your drink soon." "Actually, I'm quite thirsty myself." "We've been here together all this time, after all." "Hey!" "Get me something to drink too!" "I have." "I brought both of you some juice." "Alright." "Come in." "But you alone can enter, understood?" "Please don't worry about that." "I'm all alone." "You've also brought my share, I see." "I have." "That's it, stop right there." "You can leave them on the floor." "The larger cup is yours, and the smaller one is for Floren." "Now, take a few steps backward." "Right, now, wait there." "Oh, it's rather reddish." "It's raspberry juice, it's really good." "Please help yourself." "I've changed my mind." "I'm letting the lady have the larger cup." "What?" "W-why?" "But that cup's much bigger!" "I'm not all that thirsty so I'll be fine with the smaller share." "Please go ahead and drink, little lady." "No!" "Don't drink it, Floren!" "Don't!" "Why can't she?" "Does it happen to be poisoned?" "What?" "No, no, of course not." "No poison at all." "Then what is it?" "A sleeping drug perhaps?" "I knew it." "I thought it was strange that you had separate cups prepared." "Drink!" "N-no, t-thanks." "I'm not thirsty..." "Why are you hesitating?" "You told me it isn't poisoned." "Drink!" "Moomin!" "You're that girl's boyfriend, aren't you?" "Well, then." "If you're not going to, I guess I'll - just have to let that girl drink this then." "Ah!" "No, please wait!" "I'll drink it, I'll drink." "Moomin!" "No!" "That has some kind of drug, right?" "Don't drink it!" "Don't worry, Floren." "I'm not going to die." "It's alright." "In that case, drink already!" "I said drink!" "Gulp it down!" "Hurry and drink it all up!" "You said it wasn't poisoned, right?" "It's not." "No sleeping drug either?" "O-of course... not... n-n-no..." "such... thing..." "Moomin!" "What's wrong?" "Moomin!" "No need to worry." "Your boyfriend's just taking a rather long afternoon nap." "Thinking up all these useless schemes..." "Who in their right mind would fall for such a cheap childish trick?" "That was good!" "Oh, my bad." "This was your share." "Sorry about that." "I'll have them bring you more." "Without the sleeping drug, of course." "Those idiots are in for a shock when they see me all fine and dandy!" "Hurrah!" "Moomin!" "There wasn't any sleeping drug in this cup." "There's some juice left." "Would you like some, Floren?" "Oh, my!" "So, you were just..." "So?" "My acting wasn't half bad, now, was it?" "Moomin!" "And thus, the not-so-bright pirate was captured." "Bad, the pirate, slept for three days and three nights after that." "It wasn't just because of the sleeping drug." "He was also very tired." "Have you ever seen a dragon, Snufkin?" "There might be one left in the world, if only just a single one." "Small, and with golden warts on its skin, it can breathe fire through its mouth!" "This is not some sort of fantasy, it's for real!" "Next time on Fun Family Moomin, Episode 13:" "The Last Dragon on Earth" "Look forward to it!" "My dream, my love, when you're by my side even the color of the wind changes" "The water shines as it plays with light" "Melt time into that sky"
