CONAN The Future Boy
Based on the book, "The Incredible Tide" by Alexander Key
"Now the Earth Awakens"
The sea is in blue slumber,
Life is blooming on the land,
And the sky...and the sky dreams of tomorrow.
Look, the reborn Earth welcomes the awakening morning.
Swim and break through the waves! Run and kick up the soil!
Because you love the Earth so much,
Because the dawn is so beautiful!
Put your voices together and sing,
Dance shoulder to shoulder.
Because you love the Earth so much,
Because the dawn is so beautiful!
Episode 3: The First Companion
Rain! Fresh water!
An island! Yippee! An island, an island! I did it!
Hey! Anybody here?
Well, anyway, I'd better look for water.
A town!
Fresh water!
Who--? Someone there?
Fruit!
Wait!
Hmmph! Scaredy-cat! Just a little more and I'd have. . .
What an awful thing to do! Who in the world would. . .
All right!
Runt!
You're the runt!
That's my boat's sail! Give it back!
You drank my water! Give it back!
You wrecked my boat! Put it back like it was!
You ate my fruit! Put it back like it was!
Beanpole!
Scaredy-cat!
I'll break your arms!
I'll break your legs!
Don't imitate me!
Wanna fight?
What's with that spear? You couldn't kill even a baby lizard with that!
What's with that bow? You couldn't kill a shark with that!
I once caught a lizard thi-i-is big!
Well, the shark I caught was thi-i-i-i-is big!
Well, I've killed 1,990 thousand and 90, 9,090 thousand and 90, 9,990 thousand rats thi-i-i-i-i-is big!!
I've fought a whale bigger than this whole island!
Liar!
Liar! Liar! Liar! Liar! Liar! Liar! Liar! LIAR! LI-I-I-A-A-AR!!
Watch this!
How 'bout that?
D-don't imitate me!
Stop!
You stop!
Aw, hell!
H-hey, what is this?! It's s-still moving!
Aw, heck! And it looked so tasty, too!
Can you eat those?
You don't know anything, do you?
That's the best food on this island! A real taste treat! But even just this part will do, okay?
First time I've seen one that big!
There aren't many of 'em.
You're pretty strong.
You too.
Wanna call it a draw?
Yeah, let's.
I'm Jimsy.
I'm Conan.
C'mon!
Is this your house?
Yeah, c'mon in!
You live here alone?
Uh-huh. Here, eat.
Is this island High Harbor?
Nope, it's My Island.
My Island? There're no other people here?
Sure there are.
Where?
On the other side of the island.
And you don't live with them?
I can't stand 'em! They're after my frogs and potatoes! I'm better off alone.
Do you know about Lana?
Lana? Can you eat it?
No! She's a human -- a girl.
A girl?
A girl!
You're looking for a girl?!
A girl!
Don't laugh!
I hate girls! They're cry-babies and sissies and eat all the food!
Lana's no cry-baby or sissy and she doesn't eat all the food! And she can talk with birds, too!
There's a girl like that?
Then she can grab and eat as many birds as she wants!
The ship!
What's up?
The ship's here.
Ship?
What a big ship! And it's full of people!
How about these? Aren't they wonderful?
We'll give as many as are wanted -- to those who work hard, of course.
How about it? You want them? Do you?
And hey, this time we've brought a full load of cigarettes!
We've got wine, too!
Okay, whoever wants this stuff will fill our ship full of plastic! Understand?
Well, enough talk; we've begun. C'mon, let's see some action!
Dongoroth, is everything ready?
Yes, sir, Captain!
Come, come, no dawdling! We've started!
Earn your keep!
Oh, so you've come.
Y'got cigarettes?
What have you brought today?
Any rats?
Kind of small and scrawny.
He's not scrawny! I fattened him up with potato bugs!
All right! Gutch, trade him some cigarettes!
Yessir.
Let's see. . .
Is that it?
Forget it! That's less than last time!
Wait, wait! Boy, you're greedy, y' little jerk.
My last offer!
Thanks a lot!
Y' little brat! Come back here!
Huh? Conan? Where'd he go?
That's it, that's it! Be sure to put it in the wheelbarrows!
Here, dig up things like this, and quickly!
No, no!
Even if we recycle these things, there's no demand for them!
Don't you understand yet?
Now, listen: what we need is plastic -- plas-tic!
Listen up, everyone! Good things come only to those who work hard! Got that?
Quit starin' at me 'n' go away!
Maybe he's retarded.
Captain.
Captain! Look what I've found!
Bring it here!
Stop! Stop it!
Out of the way! Out of the way!
Why, you--!
Captain!
Captain, are you all right?
"Are you all right"! Idiot! Catch him!
Y-yessir!
This is great! A laugh riot!
Hey, hey--wait! Wait!
Mister, tell me how to stop it!
Hit the switch! The switch!
Switch? Which one?
To the right of there! Not that one or the third one -- that switch!
This one?
Wrong switch!
What are you doing, Dongoroth? Take out the kid!
You little pest!
Ow! Ow! Ow!
Conan! C'mon, quick!
This way!
You were great! Weren't you scared doing that?
That was pretty bad. Maybe if I go and apologize. . .
Do that 'n' they'll catch and kill ya for sure!
Never mind them! They're always stuck-up anyway!
That'll show 'em!
So anyone taken on that ship doesn't come back?
Uh-huh. They only take along the ones with any life left in 'em; all the old folks they leave here.
Jimsy, do you plan to stay on this island all alone?
Alone?
My grandpa said, "You musn't live alone. You must look for friends to live with."
So that's why you came to this island, huh? Well, looks t'me like we've hit it off, so I guess we're friends!
Yeah, I guess we are!
All right! Here, take a puff!
Just suck in as hard as you can!
We're friends!
M-my first. . . friend. . .
Industria can go to hell! Hurray for My Island!
Hey! What'd you say just now?
I say something wrong?
You said, "Go to hell. . ."
Yeah, "Industria can go to hell. . ."
That's it! You know about Industria?
Yeah, it's the island that ship, the Barracuda, comes from.
What's wrong?
So. . . so that's what it is!
Hurray! I found it! I found it! I found Industria!
I did it! I did it! I did it!
You're really gonna go?
Uh-huh. I've got to go to Industria no matter what and get Lana back.
Lana, huh?
Okay, I'll go too. I've always wanted to get at least one peek inside that ship anyway.
Episode 4: The Barracuda
You're really gonna go?
Uh-huh. I've got to go to Industria no matter what and get Lana back.
Lana, huh?
Okay, I'll go too. I've always wanted to get at least one peek inside that ship anyway.
Idiots! I can't believe you! What kind of morons are you?
That robot that got trashed could do more than twelve times the work you could! And that's not all!
On top of that, all of you couldn't catch one little brat!
Well, we're not going back empty-handed! We're gonna fill this ship to overflowing with plastic! Got that?
Yessir!
Geez, is he P.O.'d! He really tore into us!
Tell me about it! He's been like that every day since that girl Lana was taken away by Monsley.
They're talking about Lana!
What did I say back then? "Tie Lana up and stash her in the hold", I said.
But the captain made a fuss over her and indulged her, so she escaped.
Well, the professor told her to protect the secret of solar energy.
See ya.
So Lana is in Industria. If I can get in this ship. . .
Jimsy? That's strange. . .
Gutch! Isn't dinner ready yet!?
Yes, sir, just now.
You little jerk! Just you wait, you -- hey!
He's late! Where the hell's my food?!
Gutch, what the hell are you doing? Isn't the food done yet?!
Not yet!
What? You lazy bum! Get it here on the double!
Ahh, shaddup, ya big rattletrap!
What did you say!?
Oh, Conan. This guy's some pest, huh?
No, Jimsy!
Shaddup!
Damn you!
Get away, Jimsy!
All hands, wake up! Some islanders have snuck on board!
They've raided our supplies! Locate and seize them! Locate and seize them!
Did you see them?
There was a splash over there!
It's too dark to see! Use the signal flare!
There they are!
All hands, below deck! Prepare the robots!
Hurry!
Go!
Launch!
Stand up, Jimsy!
Get up!
Le's shwim s'more. . .
Run, Jimsy!
A contes'? Ok, but I'll win. . .
Couple o' runts! So that's what we were lookin' for! High quality, too!
Quiet! I'll decide on this!
What's your name, punk?
Why were you on board the ship?
Because I wanted to ride on it.
What? Don't give me that!
It was the first time I'd seen a ship this big!
You're not from the island, are you? Where are you from?
Remnant Island.
Remnant Island?
An island off towards where the sun rises.
Liar! There's storms blowing around the sea to the east all year 'round -- ones you sure couldn't get through!
Quiet!
Yessir!
And how did you get here from that island?
On a boat! A boat I made myself! But it got wrecked. . .
A boat you made yourself? You're saying you crossed Raging Ocean in that?
Is that what it's called -- Raging Ocean? That's why it just kept storming!
Captain, he's gotta be lying!
Yeah, he could never do that!
QUIET!!
Yessir.
You said you wanted to ride on this boat?
Him too?
'S nothin' wrong w' ships! Full a' food!
You little brat! Y'got some nerve. . .
Stop it!
You want to ride that badly?
All right, we'll give you passage.
Captain, you don't mean it!
However, you broke a robot and messed up our work. On top of that, you snuck aboard this ship and ate our food.
You must receive punishment.
Twenty beatings each!
Beatings?
If you make it without complaining, we'll make use of you.
But if you cry out even once, we'll snap your necks! If you don't like that, we'll just hang you right now.
Well, which will it be?
The beatings. . .
Ha ha! Beatings!
All right! Begin!
Here we go!
H'rry up 'n' get on with it!
OK, now you're gonna get it!
One!
Couldn't live up to his words!
All right, hang him!
Yessir!
Wait! Jimsy's drunk! He can't stand it out like that!
Oh, so you're saying you'll take his share too?
That'll be forty beatings all together.
Well?
All right.
All right! You're pretty determined!
Begin!
Forty beatings exactly!
Yes, sir!
Well, come on!
Here we go!
One!
Two!
Well, does it hurt?
Feels great!
What?
Damn!
Lemme do it.
Thirty-five!
Thirty-six!
Thirty-seven!
Thirty-eight!
Thirty-nine!
Forty!
Gotta lot of guts, that kid.
Take care of him, Dongoroth.
Yes, sir.
Hey, how long you gonna stand there?
Why, you little. . .
Passed out with a smile on his face.
Where am I?
Oh, there you are, Conan!
Hang in there, buddy! What's wrong?
You're a mess! What's the matter?
Your butt hurt?
Geez, your butt's huge! You carrying something in there?
What the hell happened to you?!
The. . . beatings. . .
Beatings?
Don't you. . . remember?
Something happen?
Anyway, they decided to let us ride this ship to Industria.
We're inside the ship?
You've gotta be kidding! I want out!
If I hadn't done it, we'd've been killed.
What do I care?!
You're the one who wants to go, so go! I'm goin' back to the island!
Hey, lemme outta here! Lemme out!
Time for work, brats!
I'm not doin' any work! Lemme outta here!
Your job is to spread all this plastic out flat! Now get started!
How come I gotta do this?
Ask your buddy about the beatings.
You've decided to do it, Conan?
Why'd you decide without asking me?!
Well, if you wanna do it, you can do it alone! Count me out!
Work hard! Put your backs into it!
Fortune favors those who work hard! Got that?
Food!
Food?
Hey, Conan!
Hey! Hey--ow! You're burning up!
You're sick!
Aah, you're too much trouble!
Hey, someone c'mere!
Hey! Show your face! Hey!
Conan's sick! Get over here!
What a pest!
Well, of course he's got a fever! He took your share of beatings too and got forty of 'em!
Don't you remember?
My share too?
Look at his butt and you'll find out. It's a wonder he's still alive.
So take care of him as best as you can!
Eat! Eat, Conan! Eat!
Hot. . .
Mealtime's over! Start working!
Get some sleep!
I'll do it. I should do it.
Out!
Quit stalling! On deck -- now!
Look sharp! Get to work!
Work?
We've still gotta work?
Set sail! Weigh anchor!
What're you doing? Weigh anchor!
Sails seven and eight! Move it!
Are you men or what? Pull! Pull!
Set a course for Industria!
No island.
Can't be helped.
Well, we can see the sights in Industria! Too far to swim back now.
Ooh, tasty!
Tikki? Is that you, Tikki?
You're going up? I'll beat you there!
It is you, Tikki!
All right, you caught it!
It's Lana's hair! She tied it to Tikki's leg!
Tikki!
Thank you!
Tell Lana I'm fine and that I'll come and save her!
Hey! You two! What are you doing goofing off? Get down here!
We're busy!
Dongoroth, don't let them get away with this!
Yes, sir!
He's coming up! Dongoroth's coming up!
He's coming up, Conan!
What're you doing?
This!
I'm coming to save you, Lana. Wait for me.
Hey, you two!
I hope you're prepared, 'cause I'm gonna beat the tar outta you!
Ooh, I'm scared!
Me too!
You're gonna get your fill of sea water! You little. . .!
Wash those too! And no dinner tonight!
I found a friend just like you told me to, Grandpa.
My friend!
Lana, I'll come and save you when I get to Industria!
Good night.
Be sure to be with us for our next episode: INDUSTRIA
"A Feeling I'll Be Lucky"
Why does my heart tremble so much?
Why do I stretch my hands toward the sky?
Why do my feet kick up the soil and run about?
I get the feeling in my heart that I'll be lucky.
I hold growing hopes in my hands.
My feet run toward the distant horizon.
Because I'm alive!
Because there's a tomorrow!
Because the Earth is spinning 'round!
