Lines by Jonathan 2
Tattoo(to Jojo after he grabbed his knife): Check out this idiot! He grabbed by blade! In all my days, I've never seen the like! Stuck, ain't ya? One quick yank and you'll be picking your fingers out of the snow for a fortnight.
Jonathan
Try it, then! The moment you pull, my foot will kick out at your groin with all the force of a sledgehammer! I'm willing to see our transaction through. Are you, sirrah?
Dio (looking for Jonathan, seeing the blood flowing from a curtain): You were a fool to attack me. I have disowned my weakness in favor of life everlasting! You're behind the curtain like Polonius. And like Polonius, it is there that you shall meet your end! (Pulls the curtain, only to be set on fire.)
Jonathan
No one's immortal! Not even you!
Scenes with Jonathan 34
Bullies: Erina's a cry-baby! Erina's a cry-baby! Erina's a cry-baby!
Jonathan
Give her back her doll!
Bully 1: Are you her friend?
Jonathan
I've never met her in my life!
[Jonathan attacks, but is easily knocked down as the bully notices his handkerchief]
Bully 1: Now that I know you're some rich man's kid, I've only just started!
[After Jonathan is beaten up by Erina's bullies, and Erina attempts to help him up.]
Jonathan
Pant pant... Let me be! [Slaps Erina's hand away] Whatever you think, I did not do this for you!
Jonathan
I wish to conduct myself as a gentleman! A true gentleman is brave and comes to the aid of those in need. Even if it's a fight he has no chance of winning, he joins the fray! One day, I will get strong enough to win.
[Jonathan walks off, leaving his hankerchef behind for Erina to pick up.]
Erina (reading the name): Jonathan Joestar.
Jonathan
You must be Dio.
And you must be Jonathan, heir of the Joestars.
Jonathan
That is Danny, my loyal and steadfast friend. Don't worry, Danny knows not to pounce on strangers.
[As Danny approaches, Dio kicks the Great Dane upside his head to Jonathan's horror]
Jonathan
What was that for?! How dare you!
Dio (monologue): So this is the brat I must usurp. He wears his heart on his sleeve and is quick to anger....This pampered fool is nothing for the likes of Dio Brando!
(While grabbing Jonathan by his ear after knocking him over) Know this. I may be your guest in your home but I'm not one to be trifled with. In all things, I am number one! Look down upon me and you will regret it!
Jonathan
But Dio, I want us to be friends-
And another thing, I despise all mongrels. They don't scare me, I just can't stand them fawning over the unworthy. So keep your mangy mutt away from me, Joestar!"
Jonathan (Storming into his home in rage): "DIIIIIOOOOOO!"
"Hush, boy! You won't speak my name in vain again if you know what's good for you!"
Jonathan
"We end this now! I won't let you sully an innocent maiden's honor! Your fight with me, damn it!"
Upset about Erina? That she shared her favors with me. And now you intend to give me a proper thrashing for my impudence."
Jonathan
[charging Dio] "This time, Dio, YOU HAVE GONE TOO FAR!!"
You may be right, but you're the one who will PAY! [knocks the wind of out Jonathan] Looking to repeat your performance from our boxing match, be my guest! [Overpowers Jonathan before knocking him into the wall.]
Jonathan (monologue): "I can't beat him. But if I lose now, I'll spend the rest of my life cowering in Dio's shadow. Most of all, I have to fight for Erina's honor.. She needs a champion!"
[Dio throws his shirt as he is about to finish the fight.]
Dio (monologue): "Time to put an end to this little pissing match. I'll beat him here in his own home. Once and for all, he'll know his proper place in this world is under my heel! He'll see that it's useless to try and defeat me! I shall be master, now and always!"
[Jonathan attempts to charge at Dio]
[Dio kicks Jonathan in the face.]
Dio (monologue): "Perfect! Right in the face!"
[However, Jonathan grabs Dio's head to counter.]
"How are you able to grab me after such a blow to the head?! Perhaps I was too gentle with you!"
[Dio suddenly finds himself getting pummeled on by Jonathan]
Jonathan (pummeling Dio): DIOOO! I'm going to beat you until you cry like a baby, Dio!
Dio (monologue): "Impossible! Impossible! How could a pampered brat like him best me in a fight?"
Y--- You… How--- How dare you…?! Bastard! How dare you strike me?!
Jonathan
Dio’s crying.
I’ll make you regret that, you filthy cur!
Dio (forced to swear on Dario's name that he was not poisoning George): How can I swear...on the honor of the man who had none...? HE DESERVED TO DIE! HOW'S THAT FOR THE TRUTH, JOJO?!
Jonathan
(blocks Dio's punch) You gave me all the proof I need. I know not what compelled you to murder Dario, but murdered him you did. (blocks an attempted thumb-jab to the eye) You'll hurt father never again! (flings Dio over the stairs)
You do the honors, Tattoo.
Use that shiv of yours to slice him open! I want his guts for garters!
Jonathan
Ogre Street is aptly named.
I wanna know the name of him who spared me.
Jonathan
Jonathan Joestar.
Dioː JoJo, it was hubris that led me to this ignominious end. This fall from grace has taught me a valuable lesson. However one may scheme or assemble, my downfall this night is part of the human condition... A condition that I now forsake.
Jonathan
Wait, forsake? What do you mean?
You see, I am about to become so much more! [Brandishes the Stone Mask] Help me shed this mortal skin!
Jonathan
Mother's mask!
JoJo! Your blood is the key!
[George intercepts the stab wound.]
Jonathan
FATHER!
[Dio laughs as he puts on the mask while activating it with George's blood while being gunned down by the constables.]
Jonathan
Father, hang on. The Doctor's on his way.
GJGeorge Joestar
JoJo...don't hate Dio for what he's done. I am to blame for this. I was hard on you because you're a Joestar. I went too easy on Dio and he might have felt I didn't care. Perhaps he did this for want of a father's love. Please... See that he's buried...next to Dario...
Jonathan
Father...
GJGeorge Joestar
Don't look so sad, JoJo... Where better to die...than in the arms...of my...son...?
HCHead Constable
We lost much this night. A noble man's soul...has been taken from the world.
You're wrong! All that was good in that man, he passed it along to Jonathan, every bit of it! You can be sure JoJo's gonna live an upright life, using what his father gave him. Rich folks are rubbish. Watching 'em flounce around, I wanna throw the whole lot of them into the Thames! But not the Joestars. They're heroic and merciful and, just...the whole damn lot of them are giants among men!
Dio (After getting shot in the head by Speedwagon): JoJo, I should thank you for the source of my newfound power! Your father's blood...and the ancient stone mask! WRRRYY...
Jonathan (watching Dio kill a constable): He takes his very life, but how is that possible! Dio, you villain, what sort of monster have you become?ǃ
[Dio tosses the constable at the others, killing them instantly while knocking Speedwagon down]
Jonathan
Even Speedwagon is afraid!
Jonathan
Know this, it ends here! You will not leave this place alive!
No! That's lunacy- (Gets backed out of the manor by a backdraft.)
Dio Brando (walking up the wall after Jonathan): Luring me away from the gutter rat? How very noble of you. No matter. I'll drain you dry, and your blood will help me amend from this little adventure. You climb the wall in vain, JoJo. In your haste to flee from me, all you had done is guarantee your doom. You will be consumed tonight, by the inferno below or by me.
Jonathan (thought): Father...Rest in peace. Let the smoke guide your soul to heaven. But first, please lend me your strength one final time. Let the fire burn around you.
Dio Brando (thought) I crushed his arm bones to splinters and he's already ablaze, but his grip on me is still that of a vice! (Out loud) So be it JoJo! Consign us onto the flame! But, perish knowing that I will survive this moment! For everything you have done, even this inferno cannot devour me!!
Jonathan
FATHEEEEEER! LEND ME YOUR POWER!
[Through luck, Jonathan managed to propel himself out of his burning home while impaling Dio on the statue of Venus as he is horrifically burned alive.]
AAAAHHHHHHH!!! (monologue) HOW COULD A WORM LIKE YOU-!? I-I forgot who I was dealing with! Bloody his nose, and he comes back twice as fierce! (out loud) JOJO!! (monologue) I have such plans for this world!! Such...plans...!!
It's late at night, but there's a lamp coming from his room. (Looks inside) This is- That woman... I'm surprised a nurse would stay with him so late! Her hands are bruised! She's soothed his burns with ice water hundreds, no, thousands of times!
(Jonathan wakes up.)
The worst is over. You'll be okay now.
Jonathan
Have you... Been taking care of me this whole time? You... I can't believe you're here! I remember... No, you can't be... That's impossible... You look like a girl I used to know...
Nurse: Her name wouldn't be by chance Erina Pendleton, would it? It has been a long time, Jonathan Joestar.... JoJo.
Jonathan
Erina! You've grown!
Me? Not as much as you. But... (gets teary) It really has been so long...
[Speedwagon takes his leave]
She makes a better Florence Nightingale than I do, anyhow. You rest up, JoJo. Speedwagon withdraws coolly.
