=========================================================

Asuka: I guess we'll be in Japan by tomorrow.
Misato said she'd pick us up around noon.
Misato is the person who was with me in Germany before you.
I don't really like her that much, she seems too contrived.
Tsk, I guess that means a temporary parting between us.
Booring!

Kaji: You'll have plenty of boydfriends when we get to Japan.
I hear the Third Children is a boy.

Asuka: I'm not interested in some stupid kid!
I'm only interested in Kaji-san.

Kaji: I'm honored.

Asuka: I'm ready anytime for you!
Be it kissing and beyond!

Kaji: You're still a child. 
Those things are for when you get older.

Asuka: what? Booring!
I'm old enough already!
I'm an adul! An adult!
An adult!! So look at me!!

=========================================================

Man: Fiction becomes reality.
What a fate. The experimenter herself was the guinea pig.

Man: So, you think that the contact experiment was the immediate 
cause?

Man: The mental breakdown...
Was that a result of the contact?

Man: It's too cruel.
She committed suicide, leaving behind such a young girl.

Man: Hmm, perhapts. I don't think that it was the only cause.

-----

Kyouko: Asuka-chan, Mama cooked your favorite for you.
If you complain about what you like and dislike, that girl will laugh at
you.

Woman: Everyday, she's like that.
She talks to the doll, thinking that it's her beloved daughter.

Asuka's father: She might feel responsible in her own way.
She devoted her whole life to research, and did not spend the time to
take her of her own daughter.

Woman: I sympathize with your grief.

Asuka's father: But, they are like a doll mother and a doll daughter.
Maybe there is very little difference between humans and dolls.

Woman: Dolls are made by humans in their own image.
Ig God really exists, we might just be dolls for him.

Asuka's father: Hearing such things, I can hardly believe you're a 
doctor of modern medicine.

Woman: Yes, I'm a doctor, but I'm still a human, and a woman first.

------

Woman (old): You're so good, Asuka-chan.
You may cry if you wish.

Asuka: It's OK. I won't cry. I can think for myself.

------

Ritsuko: Can you hear me, Asuka?
Your synchro ratio decreased by 8 whole points.
Don't think about extraneous things.
Just the same as usual.

Asuka: I'm trying!

(Eyecatch: Episode 22' - Don't be)

=========================================================

Maya: Recently, Asuka's synchro ratio has been getting lower and
lower.

Ritsuko: This is very troubling.
We don't have a spare.
Maybe we should work on Rei's Unit 00 first.
We can't reapir both of them at the same time.

=========================================================

<Woman: The mitosis process in the left arm of Unit 02 has cleared
the numerical goal.>

<Man: The necrosis process is presently under 0.05%.>

<Woman: No problems in the apotheosis process.>

----

<Mantain the current status of the self formation systems of Unit 00.>

<Woman: connect each receptor to the second signal terminal.>

Misato (Off): What was born from Adam, the Eva series.
We have no other way to defeat the Angels, besides utilizing the very
cause of Second Impact.
In other words, those who utilize even the thing that tried to destroy
them, those are human beings.

Misato: After all, I probably hate Eva. 
Probably, I'm trying to avenge my father.

Makoto: Katsuragi-san!

=========================================================

Misato: They have begun construction of Evas up to Unit 13?
In seven places all over the world?

Makoto: This information came via shaghai.
The source is reliable.

Misato: Why are they speeding up construction now?

Makoto: We've lost two Eva units recently, and now another two units
are severely damaged.
I suppose they're speeding the creation of a spare force for backup
plans.

Misato: Who knows?
We've even received parts from Germany which were originally made
for Units 05 and 06.
Nowadays they're spending a great deal of money.

Makoto: The budget was recently doubled.
From that, we might guess that the executives were driven into a
corner.

Misato: I fell the committee's impatience.

Makoto: so, do you think they are doing it because they anticipate 
cases of several Angels attacking at once, and not just one like we've
seen so far?

Misato: Maybe... But there's no reason for them to do that outside of
the normal channels.
There might be another reason.

=========================================================

<Cell phone: The number you have just dialed is no longer in service.>

Asuka: Strange... it won't connect.
I wonder if he's gone off somehwere again?

<Woman: A train will be arriving soon on track number 2.
Please stay inside the white line until the train has come to a
complete stop.>

Asuka: He spent an entire month dissolved inside Eva and he's 
already back to his old ways.
After all, I lost... and to the likes of you.

=========================================================

Misato: It's been a long tiem since we were all together, so what's with
this unsociable atmosphere?

Asuka: I'm finished.

Misato: Asuka!

Asuka: I'm not going to get it! 
After all, maybe it's a call from Kaji-san to Misato.
You should get it.

Misato: It can't be...

Asuka: Oh, I'm so sorry that I forced the unrivaled Shinji to do such a
trivial job.

Shinji: Yes, hello...

Asuka: Hmph! I can't stand the way he's so formal.

Shinji: An international call from Germany for Asuka.
It's your mother.

Asuka: For me? From Mama?
Give me that!

<Asuka: Hello Mutter
Wir haben uns lange nichts gehört.
Danke schön...
------
Hello Mother.
It's been a while since we heard each other.
Thanks...[...]>

Shinji (Off): Listening to her speaking an unfamiliar language, I feel as
if Asuka were a stranger.

<Asuka: Ach, ha, niemals
Er is ein sauber Mensch.
Ja. Ja. Wirklich?
[...]
Das ist aber toll.
Fantastisch!
------
Ah, ha, never
He's a nice person.
Yeah. Yeah. Really?
[...]
That's great.
Fantastic!>

Shinji: Mother...

=========================================================

<Auch, wenn ich gehts keine lerne.
Ich werde jetzt ins Bett gehen.
Aufwiederhören.
Gute Nacht!
-----
Also, I don't learn anything when I go.
I'm going to bed now.
Talk to you later.
Good night!>

Shinji: That was a very long call.

Asuka: It's only a sort of periodic communication.

Shinji: I'm envious. Family talk...

Asuka: Oh, it looks...
It's only superficial.
She isn't my real mother.

Asuka: But, it doesn't mean I dislike her.
It's just that I feel a little uncomfortable with her.

Asuka: Why the hell am I telling you such a thing?!

Shinji: Sorry.

Asuka: It's the end for me, when I get sympathy from you!

=========================================================

Asuka: I feel sick...
Who wants to bathe in the same water that Misato and stupid Shinji
have bathed in?
Who wants to use a washing machine that Misato and stupid Shinji
have washed their underwear in?
Who wants to sit on a toilet that Misato and stupid Shinji have used?
Who wants to breathe the same air as Misato and stupid Shinji?
I hate Misato! I hate Shinji!
I hate the First even more!
I hate Papa! I hate Mama!
But almost of all I hate myself!!
I can't take it anymore!!
Why me?! Why me?!!

=========================================================

Maya: Synchro graph, minus 12.8.
It's on the borderline of the starting indicator.

Ritsuko: What a terrible state!
Her results are worse than yesterday.

Misato: Asuka is feeling bad today.
She's in the second day of her period.

Ritsuko: Synchro ratio is not affected by external bodily disorders.
The problem's in her subconscious.

Ritsuko (Off): We may have to change the Unit 02 pilot.

Ritsuko: Asuka, you're all done.

=========================================================

<Woman: Manteinance of power system number 6 is going to start at 18:00 this
evening.>

Ritsuko: Asuka's pride was badly damaged.

<Woman: The regular meeting on the first Command Center project will
be held on time.>

Misato: It's natural, after being beaten that way.
More ever, it's much worse that she feels that she was beaten by 
Shinji.

<Woman: Personnel of the General Affairs department report to 
meeting room number 2.>

Misato: Maybe it's our limitations. 
I'm afraid the three of us couldn't live together.

Ritsuko: You broke through the critical point?
Is this the end of your nice family game?

Misato: I won't listen to this from someone who conceals her 
loneliness with pet cats.

Misato: Sorry, I'm just a little upset.

=========================================================

Asuka: Why do I have to go through such an awful time just because
I'm a girl?
I don't even want to have children.

=========================================================

<Woman: Circular route number 7 is now closed because of an 
accident.
Please use route number 12 instead.>

Rei: If you don't open your mind to her, Eva will not move.

Asuka: You mean I'm closing myself off? Me?

Rei: Yes. Eva has her own mind.

Asuka: That doll?

Rei: You must be aware of that.

Asuka: Today is a special day, since even you talked to me.
Tomorrow mayble we'll have snow.
Damn!
Are you that happy that I can't pilot Eva?
Don't worry.
When an Angel comes, the invincible Shinji will defeat it.
We don't have to do anything.
They only need Shinji!
If Shinji is there, everything will be ok!
No only Shinji, but a doll like you is sympathizing with me.
It must be the end for me.

Rei: I'm not a doll.

Asuka: Shut up!
You do anything you're ordered to.
You'll kill yourself if Commander Ikari orders you to do so.

Rei: Yes.

Asuka: You're a doll, just like I thought!
You've always looked like a doll, and I've hated you for a long, long
time.
Everyone!
I hate everyone!

=========================================================

Kensuke: Shinji is absent today, too.
Ayanami's absent, as usual, but...

Hikari: Asuka also didn't come.
Suzuhara is still in the hospital.

Kensuke: I guess that the situation is very serious, and they can't
come to school.

=========================================================

<Man: All Eva Unit 02's signals are normal.

Woman: Connection and fuel on of VA is within the expected range.
The field of proliferation is within the expected range.>

Asuka: So you're finally back together...
after losing like that.
You're just my doll.
So move like I tell you to, and don't say 'no'.
Why does a weapon have a mind?
What a hassle!
Anyway, you must only say 'yes' to my orders.

Asuka: This is stupid.

<Man: All personnel, level one combat readiness.
Prepare for aerial assault.>

Asuka: An Angel! They're still coming?

(Eyecatch: Neon Genesis Evangelion - Episode:22 - Don't Be.)

=========================================================

Shigeru: Visual confirmation of the Angel
This is at maximum zoom.

Makoto: It's not moving from orbit.

Shigeru: It's mantaining a constant distance from us.

Misato: That means it's waiting for a chance to come down.
Or is it going to destroy us without approaching?

Makoto: We can't get at it easily.

Misato: Anyway, we can't do anything unless it moves to within our 
firing range.
Eva can't defeat an enemy in orbit.

Misato: How's Rei?

Maya: She and Unit 00 are in good condition. 
They'll be OK.

Misato: Roger.
Unit 00, move out!
Prepare for extreme long distance firing.

Misato (Off): Unit 02, Asuka, be ready for a sortie as backup.

Asuka: Backup? Me? For Unit 00?

Misato: That's right. 
Take the rear guard.

Asuka: You must be kidding
Eva Unit 02, move out.

Ritsuko: Asuka.

Misato: It's OK.
Allow her in the front if she wishes.

Makoto: Major Katsuragi!

Ritsuko: You mean, if Asuka fails here, she'll be dismissed.

Maya: That means, it's her last chance?

Ritsuko: We must prepare in case the Unit 02 pilot has to be changed.

Maya: Yes.

Makoto: By the way, aren't you sending out Unit 01?

Misato: it's been frozen by strict orders from Commander Ikari.

Misato (Off): We have to accept it after an accident lke that...

=========================================================

Asuka: If I fail this mission, I might lose my position as pilot of Unit 02.
You must not make any mistakes, Asuka.

Shigeru: Target is still out of the firing range.

Asuka: Oh, hurry up and come here, you lazy Angel!
Your laziness is getting on my nerves.

Misato: The enemy's directional weapon?

Shigeru: No, no thermal energy reaction detected.

Maya: Abnormal patterns in the psycho graph.
Mental contamination will start soon.

Ritsuko: An Angel's psychic attack?
Can they understand the minds of human beings?

Asuka: Damn!

<Woman: Positrons diminished.>

Shigeru: No effect.
It's out of range.

Shigeru:Unit 02 has no ammunition in its rifle.

Misato: What's the result of the ray analysis?

Makoto: Energy wave of visible wavelength.
It's similar to an AT Field, but the details are still unknown.

Ritsuko: How's Asuka?

Maya: Situation dangerous.
Mental contamination has broken the borderline.

Asuka: Noooo! I... Don't enter into me!

Asuka: No!
No!
No!
Don't peep into my mind!
Please! Don't invade my mind anymore!

Misato: Asuka!

Maya: Her psycho graph is at the critical point!

Ritsuko: Her mental circuit is now being severely damaged.
Further overload will be too dangerous.

Misato: Asuka, retreat!

Asuka: No!

Misato: This is an order!
Asuka, I order you to retreat.

Asuka: No, never!
I'r rather die here than retreat!

Misato: Asuka...

<Man: Accelerator, start synchronization.

Woman: Voltage increasing. Approaching the pressure range.

Man: Compulsory focusing start.

Woman: Correct the error from the rotation and gravity of the Earth, 
0.03.

Man: Pressure in the barrel is at maximum.>

Makoto: Release the final safety lock.
All personell, prepare for firing!

Shigeru: No effect!
There's not enough energy to break through the AT Field from this 
great a distance.

Makoto: But, output power is at maximum.
We can't get more power!

Maya: Unit 02's psycho graph signal is very weak.

Ritsuko: How about the mind barrier from the LCL?

Maya: No effect.
We can't even expect the buffering effect.

Ritsuko: Give first priority to life support.
Don't allow feedback from Eva.

Maya: Yes.

Ritsuko (Off): That ray seems to scan Asuka's mental wavelenght 
pattern.
Oh, no... Does that mean the Angel is trying to search the human mind?

=========================================================

Asuka: Why am I crying?
I decided that I wouldn't cry anymore.

Asuka's father: What is it, Asuka?
It's a present from your new mama.
Don't you like it?

Asuka (child): No.

Asuka's father: So, what do you want?

Asuka: I'm not a baby. 
I'll become an adult earlier than other people.
I don't need a teddy bear.

Asuka (child) Look at me.
Mama, please don't stop being my mama.

Kyouko: Please, come to heaven with me.

Asuka (child): Mama, Mama, please, don't kill me!
No! I'm not Mama's doll.
I'll think for myself, and I'll live on my own.
I don't need Papa or Mama.
I will live on my own.

Asuka: No!
Don't make me remember such things!
I want to forget, so son't dig into my memories!
I dont' want to remember such terrible things.
Stop! Stop!!

Kyouko: My dear Asuka-chan...
Die with me.

Asuka (child): OK, I'll die with you Mama.
So don't stop being my mama!
Please, Mama!!

Kyouko: Mama?
I don't know you.
Who are you?

=========================================================

Asuka (Mitsuishi): My name's Soryu Asuka Langley.
Pleased to meet you.

Asuka (Mitsuishi): Are you stupid?

Asuka (Mitsuishi): Chance.

Asuka (??): So look at me!

Asuka: No! This isn't me!

Asuka (??): My name's Soryu Asuka Langley.

Pleased to meet you.

Asuka (??): Are you stupid?

Asuka (??): Chance.

Asuka (??): So look at me!

=========================================================

Asuka: Help me!
Help me Kaji-san!!

Kaji: You're still a child, Asuka.

Asuka: What are you doing there?!

Asuka: You won't do anything!
You won't help me!
You won't even hold me!
Nobody. Nobody! Nobody!!

Asuka (Child): So look at me!

=========================================================

Asuka (Child): Are you lonely?
Are you lonely?

Asuka: No!
Don't come near me!
I can live by myself!

Asuka: Do you like me?

Asuka: I don't need anyone!

Asuka: Do you really like me?

Asuka: I can live by myself!

Asuka (Child): Liar.

Asuka: NOOOO!!

=========================================================

Asuka: My mind has been sullied.
Kaji-san, it's polluted.
What should I do?
My mind has been polluted.

=========================================================

<Woman: All activity has ceased in Unit 02.

Woman: A problem has arisen in the life support system.>

Maya: The pilot will enter the danger zone.

Shigeru: No change in the target.
Relative distance still shows no change.

Makoto: The possibility that the target will move into the firing range of
Unit 00 is 0.02%.

Misato: Can we transport Unit 00 by air?
Shoot the target from the sky?
No, we can't do that.
If the Angel shoots during the approach, we can't protect it.

Shinji: I'll go out in Unit 01.

Fuyutsuki: No.
This target is one wich invades the minds of hte pilots.

Gendou: We must avoid a situation where Unit 01 is invaded now.

Shinji: So, you mean it's OK as long as I'm not defeated?

Gendou: That can't be guaranteed.

Shinji: But, if this goes on, Asuka will...

Gendou: I don't care.
Rei, descend to Dogma and use the Lance.

Fuyutsuki: Lance of Longinus?
Ikari, that's...

Gendou: We have no other choice to destroy a target in orbit, where an
AT Field from here can't reach.
Hurry!

Misato: But, thre's the possibility that the contact between Adam and 
Eva will cause Third Impact.
It's too dangerous.
Commander Ikari, please don't do it!

Misato (Off): It's a lie? Second Impact wasn't caused by contact with
an Angel.

=========================================================

<Woman: Open area numbers 10 to 15 of Central Dogma.

Woman: Unit 00 has passed the 6th Malebolge.

Woman: Next, open area numbers 16 to 20>

=========================================================

Misato (Off): You say Third Impact will not be aroused by such a small 
thing.
So, what was the real cause of Second Impact?

=========================================================

Fuyutsuki: Ikari, I think it's too early to use that.

Gendou: The committee has started the mass production of the Eva 
series.
This is our chance, Fuyutsuki.

Fuyutsuki: But, I can't...

Gendou: We can't make the clock move backwards.
But, we can make it move forward with our own hands.

Fuyutsuki: The old men will not allow it.

Gendou: We must put an end to everything before SEELE takes action.
It's not a good idea to lose Unit 02 right now.

Fuyutsuki: But, if we use the Lance of Longinus without the permission
of SEELE, that will cause many problems.

Gendou: If a reason exists, that is enough.
I don't see anything else to consider.

Fuyutsuki: Reason? What you really want is an excuse.

Makoto: The amplitude of the EEG for Unit 02's pilot has decreased to
0.06.

Maya: It's the critical point for life support.

Shigeru: Unit 00 has passed area number 2.
She'll be coming up above ground.

Misato: That's the Lance of Longinus.

Shigeru: Unit 00, take position for throwing.

Makoto: Confirm the target.
Correct for error, OK.

Maya: Start the countdown.
10 seconds left...
8...
7...
6...
5...
4...
3...
2...
1...
0...

=========================================================

Shigeru: Target annihilated.

Maya: Eva Unit 02 is free.

Fuyutsuki: How about the Lance of Longinus?

Makoto: It surpassed escape velocity.
It's now moving into a Lunar orbit.

Fuyutsuki: It'll be almost impossible to recover it.

Makoto: Yes.
There is currenly no way to retrieve that much mass.

=========================================================

Maya: Unit 02 is all right. 
Graphs are within normal limits.

Shigeru: Send the unit to cage number 2.

<Woman: Use route number 67.>

Misato: How's Asuka?

Makoto: Confirmed.
The pilot is alive.
Quarantine for contamination complete.

Misato: I see...

=========================================================

Shinji: I'm glad that you're OK, Asuka.

Asuka: Shut up! Who are you calling OK?!
It's the worst. 
I was rescued by that girl!
Rescued by that damn girl!
I would rather die than that!
I hate, hate, everyone, everything!

=========================================================
