“Pacific State”
In this episode: Holland Novak (2)
What do you thing you're doing? Matthieu: What in the hell does it look like we're doing? We're going lifting! Sonia: I can see that! How is it that you can be so calm about everything?! Mischa: Sonia, I don't think youre getting enough calcium in your diet.
(To Renton) Talho: Loving someone from afar is a big lie. If you really love her, you have to show her how you feel.
(crying after falling off his ref board) I'm so pathetic, Talho. I'm pathetic, aren't I? I'm sorry. The only thing I had any talent for was lifting. Talho: But you still like it, don't you? Holland: Yeah. I love lifting, and this planet that lets me lift. That's why I cant forgive the existence of beings that want to destroy it. Talho, no matter what happens from now, I want to protect this planet that I met you on, and you, for loving me, despite being so pathetic. Talho: (crying) Idiot. You're making all my makeup run off of my face.
Until now, I've been living my life by using all sorts of things. In order to survive, I've used lifting and the entire counterculture surrounding it. What I didn't realize is that I was hurting them every time I used them. And that's not all. Saying I was protecting something important, I also hurt a lot of people, like Eureka and Renton. I'm sorry for what I did. Forgive me. Renton: Holland... Holland: But that's not what I came here to say. As of this moment, the Gekkostate is disbanding. (everyone gasps in shock) Hap: What? Talho: One of the assistants from my intelligence department days found him. Apparently, Master Norb has appeared along in the Capital, seeking audience with the three Sages. Hap: The Capital?! Holland: We don't have a lot of time. Master Norb, who has been in complete hiding for the past three years, showed up in the enemy headquarters, of all places, which means he's resigned himself to the current location. The thing is, we cant afford to lose him right now. Losing him means losing the possibility of humans and Coralians co-existing on this planet, like what we have right here in front of our eyes. I'm going into the Capital to rescue Master Norb. I probably won't make it out in one piece. I've decided to do this for my own personal reasons and nothing else. I cant force any of you to follow me. Those that want to get off this ship should get off, or stay if you wish. No matter, what choice you make, I will honor it as your decision. That's the last order I give you as the elader of the Gekkostate. That's all. Disband.
(After Holland's speech; on the bridge) Ken-Goh: It's been three years, hasn't it? Holland: Since what? Ken-Goh: Since you took control of the Gekko and escaped out of the military. Come to think of it, it was just the three of back then, right, Talho? Talho: Yeah. I know it's true that we don't have any time left, but we can just start over from square one. Holland: Thanks, Talho. Hap: I think that's the first time I've ever heard you say that word. Holland: Huh, jeez. Hap: You and I have been together since we were three-years-old. I hope you say that to me once before I die. Holland: I will. Gidget: Leader, you've got a message from Stoner. He's developing film right now, so he doesn't want you to make any sudden moves. Talho: Okay, Gidget. Jobs: Engine room here. Engines are good. All systems show no malfunctions. we can go any time. Moondoggie: This is the catapult control room. Right now, we have the 606 on the turntable. The 606 is formally requesting clearance from the bridge to release the catapult for a scouting mission. Hilda: This is the 606. Leader, you know you're gonna need an LFO in the air for what you're trying to do right now, right, Matthieu? Matthieu: That's right, Leader. Holland: Matthieu... Woz: I'm not seeing any enemy bogies on the radar. Holland: Woz, I... Woz: The central computer is back up and running, just like our leader. Holland: You guys... Gekkostate is- Renton: We're not going to let you disband us. We all talked it out. I mean, come one, let's face it, Holland. All of us could see that what you're trying to do right now is nothing different from what we've been trying to do all along, and that is what the Gekkostate is all about! Holland: Renton... Talho: Now, Leader, hurry up with your orders. Everyone here is waiting for you to tell them what to do. Holland: All hands! The Gekko's mission now is to invade the Capital! Operational details will follow, but for now, let's change course. head for the next point were we can perform trajectory flight! Got that?! Everyone: Roger! (Gekko slams full speed, causing Stoner to hit the wall) Stoner: Hey! Come one! Wasn't anybody listening to my request? I guess this time I'll let it go, considering I've just finished creating the best piece of my life. (looks at the picture of Renton and Eureka happily lifting on the longboard in the sunset) The title for this one is...hmm...let's see...how about something like..."Pacific State"?
