[when Pazu and Sheeta are preparing to launch in the kite]
Dola
Are you up there, Sheeta, my dear?
Sheeta
Yes.
Dola
Best ya come down right now!
Sheeta
But why?
Dola
Uh? 'Cause you're a GIRL! A FEMALE! That's MAN'S work!
Sheeta
But YOU'RE female, Captain! And I was born up in the mountains, I can do this.
Pazu
No, Sheeta!
Sheeta
Be quiet!
[to Dola]
Sheeta
And Pazu agrees with me!

Col. Muska
How appropriate that we've ended up in the throne room.
[forcefully]
Col. Muska
Now get over here!
Sheeta
This is no longer a throne room. This is a tomb for the both of us. You see, a king without compassion does not deserve a kingdom. You will *never* possess the crystal! You and I will die here, together. Now I understand why the people of Laputa vanished. This is a song from my home in the valley of Gondoa that explains everything. It says, "Take root in the ground, live in harmony with the wind, plant your seeds in the winter, and rejoice with the birds in the coming of spring." No matter how many weapons you have, no matter how great your technology might be, the world cannot live without love.
Col. Muska
[Muska shoots off Sheeta's pigtail]
Laputa will live. I will return it to life! Laputa's power is the dream of all mankind!
[he shoots off her other pigtail]
Col. Muska
Your ears are next... unless you get on your knees and obey me!
[menacingly]
Col. Muska
I command you, GIVE ME THAT STONE!
Pazu
Stop right there, Muska!
[appears with a cannon in hand]
Pazu
I've hidden the stone. If you do anything to harm Sheeta, you'll never get it back.
Sheeta
No, Pazu, listen! Run away before he kills you as well as me!
Col. Muska
Look who's here. Why don't you give me the stone, and the girl will live. Otherwise, I'll kill her!
[mockingly]
Col. Muska
Are you planning on fighting me? Go ahead, use that cannon you can hardly lift!
Pazu
You can have the stone if you let me talk to Sheeta.
Col. Muska
I'll give you one minute, starting now.

Okay.
Dola
[to Sheeta, softhearted]
Oh, poor little thing. There's nothin' worse than having your pigtails shot off!
Sheeta
[reacting to a sharp object beneath Dola's blouse]
Or having your eye poked out. What have you got under there?
Dola
Oh, my fault!
[takes out shining gem]
Dola
You must've hurt yourself on these! Now, how'd they get inside my blouse?

[soldiers observe the blast from the observatory]
Col. Muska
The fire of Heaven that destroyed Sodom and Gamorrah in the Old Testament. The Ramanayah referred to it as "Indra's Arrow." The entire world will once again kneel before the power of Laputa.
General
I can only say, "Well done, Muska. You're a credit to our country." As such, you deserve this reward!
[shoots at hologram, to no avail]
General
Huh?
[his gun runs out]
[glares with fiendish glee as he raises the crystal over Black Stone]

General
What's going on?
Col. Muska
Hold your tongue, commoner! You are in the presence of the king of Laputa.
General
The man has gone *crazy*!
Col. Muska
I thought I would show you an example of Laputa's power. We are about to celebrate the rebirth of the Laputian kingdom.
[lowers crystal over the Black Stone]
Col. Muska
Prepare yourself for the thunder of Laputa!

[in the galley; Sheeta is cooking when Louis happens by, standing idly around her]
Louis
Ahem.
Sheeta
Uh, yes? What is it?
Louis
[speechless] Uhm...
Sheeta
Yes?
Louis
[blurts out] I-I-I finished my work for the moment, and I've come to offer you my help.
Sheeta
Well, that's kind of you. Will you hand me those plates over there?
Louis
With pleasure, my little ang...
[scowls when he notices one of his brothers peeling a potato]
Louis
What are YOU doing here?
Pirate
Helping.
Louis
I thought you said you had a stomachache!
Charles
[throwing open the door with a rose in hand] I'm in love with you!
Louis
YOU?
Charles
[sheepishly] Hello.

Col. Muska
[fascinated by Sheeta's glowing pendant]
It's the Sacred Light! The ancient documents were true! It's not just a legend!
Sheeta
What are you talking about?

Sheeta

It's your crystal! The force of the Sacred Light has brought the robot back to life! The way to Laputa has been opened!
Sheeta
LET ME GO!

Sheeta
[Muska escorts her downstairs to the cellar; she notices a mechanical being lying on the floor]
What is it?
Col. Muska
An artificial life-form. It's called a robot. Laputa was just a legend until this dropped from the sky.
[We see a brief illustrated flashback where the robot crashes to the Earth, scattering a pair of farmers. Then we fade back to the robot]
Col. Muska
Now, the government wants *me* to unlock Laputa's secrets. For example, what's this fellow made of, metal or ceramics? With our limited technology, we have no idea. But he DOES tell us one thing. Come and see.
[Sheeta hesitates]
Col. Muska
Oh, don't be afraid, Sheeta. He's really quite dead, you know. Look there.
[Sheeta notices the crest on the robot's casing, and gasps]
Col. Muska
Yes. It's the same emblem that decorates the fireplace in your home... AND your crystal.
[He holds up Sheeta's crystal]
Col. Muska
You see, Sheeta, this crystal *also* comes from Laputa...
[Sheeta is sobbing]
Col. Muska
... and I believe the powers locked inside it are capable of leading a person back to that city's treasures.
Sheeta
Then why? Why don't you just take it? Just take it, and keep Laputa's treasures for yourself, but leave Pazu and me alone, please!
Col. Muska
[sighing]
You *really* are being very silly about this. You think I'm doing this for money? You understand NOTHING! According to the legend, the same technology that kept Laputa airborne also made it a major power that once dominated the entire planet! If such a horrible thing is still floating up there, you can understand what a threat it is to the peace of the world.
[leaning in close]
Col. Muska
Sheeta, this stone *only* works for you. You must know of some way of making the stone point out the location of Laputa.
Sheeta
I really don't know anything. Please, let me see Pazu!
Col. Muska
I don't want to see any harm come to anyone, but I simply can't control what the military might do to him.
Sheeta
What?
Col. Muska
In the event that you cooperate, I'm sure who's ever in charge will grant Pazu his freedom, Lusheeta...
[Sheeta gasps in horror]
Col. Muska
... Toelle Ul Laputa.
Sheeta
You know my real name...?
Col. Muska
"Ul" means "ruler" in Laputian. "Toelle" means "true". *You* are the legitimate heir to the throne of Laputa, Princess Lusheeta.

Henri
[Pazu has just returned home; he is about to open the door when suddenly hands reach out to grab him]
Well! Ahoy there, matey!
Pazu
Ahh! What's going on?
[he is thrown into his house; cut to Pazu struggling as Henri ties him up]
Henri
Stop wriggling, ya little worm!
Pazu
[as Henri pulls a bound Pazu to the wall]
Get out! Get out, or I'll throw you out! This is MY house!
Pazu
Whaddaya mean?
Henri
[taking out the gold coins Muska gave Pazu]
Hey, Mom! Can I keep this money?
Dola
Up and sold a little girl, did ya? I know your type!
Dola
They offered ya money, and ya took it, didn't you?
Pazu
I only left because Sheeta told me to!
[sighing]
Pazu
That's why.
Dola
[spits in disgust]
So ya believed her and ya came back here, right? You're just a SCARED LITTLE BOY WHO RUNS AWAY!
[slams her fist on the table]
Pazu
Says you! You don't even have the guts to stand up to Muska and the army!
Dola
He who turns and runs away can steal the treasure ANOTHER DAY!
Charles
[underneath Dola's line]
Mm-hm.
Dola
Don't ya think it's kinda strange that the army has gotten into the kidnapping business?
[takes another big bite on her steak]
Dola
You really think they'll keep her alive? Don't ya see that they forced her to make a deal?
Dola
Oh, well, ya can't be a sensitive woman like me without learnin' a few things. Sheeta and I are exactly alike: all warm and mushy and sensitive!
[belches]
Dola
Now, so when you boys get married, you go find a gal like her!
Charles
Good question.

Louis
Louis, Henri: [Dola drives up to Louis and Henri] Hi, Mom!
Dola
Lamebrain! They made an escape! Now step on it!
Henri

Hey, I wanna come!

What's come over you, my dear? It's not like you to challenge a ship like Goliath. You know, the odds are against you.

Papa
[Chuckling]
I must admit, those kids are cute!
Dola

Papa
[to Pazu]
Papa
Come on, assistant! Let's see what you can do!
Papa
I need someone who's *mechanically* minded, not some half-baked, swashbuckling Casanova wannabe!
