Narrator: Everyone has a side they don't show anyone else.
Narrator: To their friends, their significant others, or even their families.
Narrator: They hide what they're truly feeling through fake smiles or bravado,
Narrator: and keep their true identities secret.
Narrator: That is how the world keeps up the appearance of its temporary peace.
Narrator: In an era in which the nations of the world were waging a fierce w*r
Narrator: of information just out of sight,
Narrator: two countries were at odds with each other.
Narrator: Ostania, in the east, was secretly plotting to start a w*r.
Narrator: Westalis, in the west, wanted to put a stop to those plans.
Narrator: In order to keep an eye on the actions of a leading figure in Ostania's government,
Narrator: Westalis set Operation Strix in motion.
Narrator: The one tasked with this operation is the skilled agent, Twilight.
Narrator: The mission given to the master of disguise with a hundred faces was...
Narrator: to start a family.
Park Avenue, West DistrictCapital City of Berlint, Ostania
Loid: Is this everything you own?
Yor: Yes.
Loid: It's not very much.
Yor: Um, Loid... about the sleeping arrangements...
Loid: We'll be sleeping in separate rooms, of course.
Loid: We'll share one for appearances anytime we have guests over.
Yor: R-Right.
Anya: Welcome to Anya's house!
Yor: Thank you for the lovely welcome, Miss Anya.
Narrator: This house is home to a rather unusual family.
Narrator: The father, Loid Forger, is a psychiatrist.
Narrator: His true identity: a spy.
Code Name<Twilight>
Narrator: Code name: Twilight.
Narrator: The mother, Yor Forger, is a civil servant who works at city hall.
Narrator: Her true identity: an assassin.
Code Name<Thorn Princess>
Narrator: Code name: Thorn Princess.
Narrator: The daughter, Anya Forger.
Narrator: Her true identity: a telepath.
Anya: I'm so happy to have a mama now!
Yor: Mama...
Anya: I'm gonna help.
Loid: Oh, right. By the way...
Loid: I had a friend of mine who's a judge make it so we got married a year ago.
Loid: By that, I mean he forged the certificate.
Loid: We can figure out why we lived separately and what to tell your brother later.
Yor: All right.
Loid: It would make the school suspicious if we got married just before the interview.
Yor: I got permission from the Shopkeeper, so I feel much better.
Anya: So exciting...
Narrator: Father, mother, daughter...
Narrator: These three created this pretend family to further their own ends,
Narrator: and are living under the same roof as they hide their true identities from each other.
PREPARE FOR THE INTERVIEW
Anya: I'm going to show Mama around!
Loid: Once we get settled in, we'll practice the interview.
Anya: This is the kitchen!
Anya: Papa is good at cooking!
Yor: Oh, I see.
Anya: This is the toilet. And that's the bathtub!
Yor: Everything's so clean.
Anya: I can wash my face all by myself!
Yor: You're such a big girl, Miss Anya.
Anya: This is Anya's room!
Anya: Welcome!
Yor: Thank you for inviting me in.
Yor: My, what an adorable room.
Anya: I'll introduce you to Mr. Chimera.
Anya: I am Chimera. It is a pweasure to meet your acquiantenance.
Yor: It's very nice to meet you, Mr. Chimera.
Yor: I am Miss Anya's mama.
Anya: This is Papa's room!
Yor: So this is Loid's room...
Anya: This is your room, Mama.
Anya: Come in, Mama.
Yor: Why, thank you.
Yor: So this is my...
Yor: What a lovely room.
Loid: I'm glad you like it.
Loid: This should be everything.
Loid: Is the furniture arranged to your liking? I also cleaned a bit.
Yor: Yes, everything is wonderful.
Anya: I helped clean, too!
Yor: Really? Thank you so much.
Anya: Am I a good girl?
Loid: All you did was tip over a bucket of water.
Anya: Shock!
Yor: This is such a lovely room. I don't know what to do with myself.
Loid: What do you mean?
Loid: Please make yourself at home.
Loid: Actually, this is your home now, so make yourself comfortable.
Yor: Thank you.
Loid: I'll come get your boxes once they're empty.
Yor: Loid, I've got everything put away.
Loid: You're quite efficient.
Loid: Ah, this must be your younger brother.
Yor: Oh, yes.
Loid: You said he's also a civil servant?
Yor: Yes. He seems quite busy lately, so I've only spoken to him on the phone.
Loid: It seems you two are quite similar.
Loid: I should properly introduce myself once Anya's entrance exam is over.
Yor: Um, Loid. About that...
Yor: I don't have anything suitable to wear to this interview...
Loid: Then let's go to the tailor today.
Yor: Thank you very much.
Anya: Helping, helping...
Yor: M-Miss Anya, I'll take care of that!
Yor: I have my work weapons and poison powerful enough to k*ll an elephant in there.
Yor: Can I get you something, Loid?
Loid: Some coffee, please. Black.
Anya: I want hot cocoa!
Loid: With sugar and milk.
Anya: That's the stuff!
Yor: They look amazing. Are those cookies homemade?
Loid: It's actually my first time making cookies.
Loid: I just followed a recipe from a cookbook, so they should be decent.
Loid: I hope you like them.
Yor: Thank you.
Yor: They're wonderful! You really are an amazing cook!
Loid: It's not that impressive, really.
Anya: I helped with the cookies, too!
Yor: Oh, I see.
Loid: After you got covered in flour and got in my way,
Loid: you just snacked on some peanuts.
Loid: Once we're settled in, let's begin.
Loid: Eden College is one of the most prestigious schools in the country.
Loid: During the interview, not only will the child be evaluated,
Loid: but so will the parents.
Loid: They will be evaluated on their social standing as well as how cultured they are.
Loid: Understood?
Loid: Now, let's start the questions.
Loid: First, please state your name and address.
Anya: Anya Fo...Fo...Horger. Address?
Loid: The place we're at right now.
Anya: This is Anya's house!
Loid: That's not what I meant.
Loid: Er, so, Miss Anya... How do you spend your days off?
Anya: Papa orders me to stay home,
Anya: so I have to watch TV all alone.
Loid: Now, wait a second.
Loid: That makes a terrible impression. Madam?
Yor: Yes?
Loid: Why did you choose Eden College, and how do you plan to pass this exam?
Yor: How do people usually pass?
Yor: Um, pass, passing...
Yor: Perhaps because of cardiac arrest, or excessive bleeding?
Yor: Or compound fractures throughout the body?
Yor: Oh! Maybe their skull was caved in.
Loid: k*ll me now. Next question.
Loid: Could you describe your parenting methods?
Yor: Huh? U-Um... Strike first to be victorious?
Loid: I'm amazed her brother turned out to be a decent human being.
Loid: I've been a spy for over a decade.
Loid: I've completed countless missions,yet only now do I find myself losing heart.
Loid: This is pointless. There's no way we'll survive the interview at this rate.
Loid: Let's give up on getting her into that school.
Yor: Loid! Please remember your late wife's wishes!
Loid: Clearly, we weren't ready for this mock interview yet.
Loid: All right, let's go out for a bit.
Loid: Let's broaden our horizons, become versed in what is normal for an upper-class family,
Loid: and make sure that we're all on the same page.
Anya: We're on an ooting, an ooting, la, la, la, lah!
Loid: You mean "outing."
Anya: Wanna hold hands, Mama?
Yor: I-If you don't mind.
Loid: Thank goodness Anya's taken a liking to her.
Loid: The plan is set.
Loid: After today, we'll seem like a normal... no.
Loid: We'll be seen as an upper-crust family.
Yor: Oh... This reminds me of when my little brother was still small and adorable.
Yor: And that one time I hugged him too hard and ended up breaking two of his ribs.
Yor: I must be careful.
Loid: Wait... what? Maybe not...
Yor: B-By the way, where are we headed?
Loid: I've acquired a variety of tickets through my connections at work.
Loid: Tradition and status are everything at Eden College.
Loid: We'll have to experience and get accustomed to the best that life has to offer,
Loid: and make sure we don't slip up if we let our guard down.
Loid: All right, next.
Loid: Anya, no yelling while we're here.
Anya: 'Kay.
Loid: We've experienced first-class music,
Loid: so now for some first-class art... And you know the rest.
Anya: Papa! I can see her boobies!
Anya: Head's been choppy-chopped! Body's been choppy-chopped!
Loid: What did I just say about yelling?
Loid: Yor?
Loid: Y-Yor...?
Anya: I wanna do that!
Loid: Drawing? Sure.
Loid: Yor, why don't we sit down for a bit?
Yor: All right.
Anya: Anya's house is a big castle.
Anya: The boss of the secret organization is Director Chimera.
Anya: Papa is a spy! Pew, pew!
Anya: Mama is an assassin! Stabby, stabby, sploosh!
Loid: We should probably get going.
Yor: Yes.
Anya: All done!
Loid: Anya, we're going to our next stop.
Anya: If Papa and Mama see this,they'll find out about my powers!
Loid: Wow, that's quite a masterpiece.
Loid: There seems to be a pig in a forest.
Anya: That's Mr. Chimera, and he lives in a castle!
Loid: I see. I definitely see Bondman there, though.
Loid: I'm right, aren't I?
Anya: Yep...
Loid: It's that spy cartoon you were watching last week.
Loid: So this witch-looking one must be the princess.
Loid: That part seems rather graphic.
Loid: Oh, but that cat is cute.
Anya: That's a doggy!
Loid: I see. Then I apologize.
Loid: We're going to the tailor next.
Yor: Sorry to have you do this on your day off.
Loid: It's quite all right. This is something we need to do.
Anya: My going-out clothes are so cute!
Anya: They fit perfectly!
Anya: This shop is great! I love it!
Proprietress: Why, thank you.
Anya: This is my first ooting in my going-out clothes.
Proprietress: Then it must be a day of celebration.
Anya: A day to celebrate this ooting!
Loid: In that case, we can stop by a photography studio next.
Female Employee: Yor, dear. Right this way.
Yor: Coming.
Proprietress: If you're looking for a semi-formal dress, I think this color would do nicely.
Proprietress: What do you think?
Yor: I'd honestly prefer a black or red dress.
Proprietress: Really? I think this would look nice on you, Yor.
Proprietress: Then how about this?
Loid: Judging from her lack of luggage, I thought she had no interest in clothes.
Loid: I see you're particular about matching colors.
Yor: No... I wouldn't say that.
Yor: This color's lovely, but I'm worried that blood splatters would be too noticeable.
Female employee: Looks like Yor finally found someone nice.
Proprietress: Hopefully they last. Having a child already is an instant no for me, though.
Loid: Looks like the extra outfits will be ready by the interview, too.
Yor: I'm so sorry to have you get so many.
Loid: Well, you look nice in colors besides red and black.
Loid: We'll be going out more often, too.
Anya: Ootings! Ootings!
Loid: You're a regular at that shop, aren't you?
Loid: I'm sure we'll continue to shop there, so next time, we should tell them we're married.
Yor: Oh, right.
Politician: We, the Nationalist Party, believe that there is a road to peace with the West.
Loid: Patriotism is also important within Eden.
Audience A: You moron!
Audience B: k*ll all the bastards in the West!
Politician: Continuing to treat Westalis as the enemy will do us no good.
Loid: I'll need to make sure she's knowledgeable of politics and history, as well.
Audience C: Piss off, traitor!
Audience F: Gimme money, gimme money, gimme money...
Audience D: Those bastards k*lled my family!
Audience E: Get lost with the pleasantries!
Audience G: First I lost my job, then my home!
Loid: What's the matter?
Anya: I don't like places like this...
Audience H: k*ll all the shitheads in the West!
Loid: Sorry. Maybe this was a little scary for you.
Yor: Let's go rest somewhere.
Audience I: The East did nothing wrong!
Audience mob: Go back to your Western masters!
Audience mob: Damn it!
Audience mob: You pig!
Audience mob: You stupid baldy!
Audience mob: Your feet smell, too!
Anya: Papa, I'm hungry.
Loid: Huh?
Loid: Are you all right or not?
Loid: No, Anya. Don't just pick the nuts off the and no eating with your hands.
Loid: And Yor, uh... Hmm...
Loid: I've been a spy for over a decade.
Loid: I've completed countless missions,yet once again I find myself losing heart.
Anya: S'all good, Papa.
Loid: What is?
Loid: Yeah, I definitely picked the wrong child.
Loid: No, this is all because I was expected to rely on others.
Loid: I shouldn't have put the key to success in the hands of others, let alone civilians.
Loid: Predicting every possible situation, preparing for it,
Loid: and acting from a carefully laid-out plan.
Loid: Those are the ironclad rules of being a spy.
Loid: Which means that I need to list every possible question the interviewer can ask,
Loid: then have these two memorize the perfect answers to go with them.
Loid: If all else fails, make sure I can back them up—
Yor: Um...
Yor: Why don't we go get some fresh air?
Anya: The people look like bits of trash from up here.
Loid: Where did you get that from?
Anya: My cartoons.
Loid: Ah...
Loid: I had no idea there was a park like this on the outskirts of town.
Yor: I don't come here that often either,
Yor: but I wander over here when I'm exhausted from work.
Yor: Thinking about how the work I do helps everyone in this city out
Yor: encourages me to work harder.
Yor: Oh, this place must be awfully boring! I'm terribly sorry!
Anya: I like this place better than crowded places!
Yor: Oh, that's wonderful!
Old woman: Thief! Someone help!
Loid: That old lady should've been more careful.
Yor: You won't get away with this!
Yor: Hold it right there!
Loid: Oh, damn it.
Yor: I lost track of him.
Yor: Are you all right, ma'am? Are you hurt?
Old woman: I'm fine. Just a few scratches.
Yor: I promise I'll catch him for you! And I'll take you to the hospital later!
Old woman: Why, thank you.
Yor: I left Loid and Anya behind.
Loid: He blended in with the crowd.
Loid: I'm very sorry, Yor, but you probably won't be able to find him now.
Mob A: Man, I'm starving.
Mob B: So expensive...
Mob C: Aw, this is so cute.
Mob D: Crap, I'm gonna piss my pants.
Mob E: My feet hurt.
Mob G: That shopworker is so cool.
Mob F: I wonder if there's a million dalc lying around somewhere.
Mob M: Oh, I forgot to pay my rent.
Mob H: Man, he's late.
Mob I: Honestly, this child...
Mob J: What am I going to do? I failed my test again.
Mob K: That bastard. I'm gonna m*rder him.
Mob L: Maybe I'll say hi...
Loid: Hey, this again?
Thief: Man, that old crone was loaded.
Anya: Papa!
Loid: Whoa, what?
Anya: I wanna eat cake!
Loid: What?!
Loid: We just left the restaurant...
Loid: He's...
Loid: He changed his clothes, but it's not so easy to change the way you walk.
Loid: Don't think you'll get away from me.
Yor: Loid!
Anya: Mama's here.
Loid: Yor, look after Anya for me.
Thief: I'll be able to have plenty of fun for a while with this much.
Thief: First, I'm gonna treat myself to the finest meal and—
Loid: A filthy swine like you deserves nothing more than the foulest meal.
Mob N: What's going on?
Mob O: A guy just dropped from the sky.
Loid: A spy must not bring attention to himself.
Mob P: Did he fall?
Loid: Pardon me. This fellow is a purse snatcher, so please call the police and hand him over.
Mob P: A purse snatcher?
Old woman: Thank you for escorting me all the way here.
Old woman: I had money to get my grandchild a gift in my purse.
Old woman: Thank you so much. You were a big help.
Yor: Oh, actually...
Yor: The one who got it back was my, um, husband.
Loid: No, if you weren't there, Yor, I wouldn't have even gone after him.
Old woman: Thank you so much. What a fine gentleman you are.
Loid: Er, again...
flashback Chief: Hero who casts no shadow,
flashback Chief: the great deeds you and your fellow agents do shall never see the light of day.
Old woman: Thank you.
Loid: I guess... receiving thanks every once in a while wouldn't hurt.
Anya: Papa is a softie.
Loid: Thank you, Yor.
Loid: Today was a nice change of pace.
Loid: Now I'll be able to work hard again.
Anya: Papa and Mama are flirting.
Loid and Yor: We are not!
Anya: Does Anya get a thank you, too?
Loid: Well... I guess we did find the thief because you were hungry again.
Loid: Good girl.
Old woman: My, what a lovely family you are.
Old woman: Here's some candy for you, dear.
Anya: Candy!
Loid: Make sure you say, "Thank you."
Anya: The ooting is over!
Loid: What a long day.
Anya: Mama!
Anya: I want some hot cocoa, please!
Yor: As you wish.
Loid: Hey, more importantly, we need to retry this mock interview.
Loid: So, Miss Anya, how do you spend your days off?
Anya: We go to the opera, the museum, and eat at restaurants.
Loid: Yes! Exactly!
Loid: If you're asked this question, make sure you talk about today.
Loid: Okay, next question.
Loid: You've seen your friend do something naughty.
Loid: What will you do?
Anya: I'd jump on top of them, b*at them up, and make them eat the foulest meal!
Loid: Hmm... Pretend you never saw that, okay?
Loid: Yup, this is hopeless. I'm done.
Anya: Papa, you were so cool!
Yor: Yes, he was.
Anya: Ka-bam!
Anya: It's the foulest meal for you!
Anya: Hot cocoa is the best.
flashback Old woman: My, what a lovely family you are.
Loid: I guess if she saw us that way...
Loid: About one percent of my preparations are complete.
