The Puppetmaster: Transcript

(The episode opens to Shiori and Shiki's house at night. The scene cuts to a shot of Shiki, wearing an apron, cooking some vegetables. Ben enters the scene and approaches Shiki.)


 * Ben: Shiki, me, Gwen and Kevin are so grateful of you and Shiori inviting us to your house for dinner.

(The six descend into the dark cave and approach a solid metal door, torches nearby. Ultimate Wildmutt changes to Humongousaur and breaks it down where the group proceeds to make their way through the tunnel, Gwen, Shiki and Rika lighting their path with their powers. They arrive to see several villagers and Max and Patelliday chained to the walls of the cave.)


 * Male Prisoner 1: We're saved!


 * Humongousaur: Grandpa! You're okay!


 * Max: Ben!


 * Patelliday: You kids took so long.

(Rika creates an ice key with her powers and begins to unlock the prisoners' shackles. Humongousaur changes Ben.)


 * Ben: I didn't know spirits made prisons like this. Who brought you here?


 * Female Prisoner: It was no spirit.


 * Male Prisoner 2: It was a warlock!


 * Kevin: A warlock? What do you mean?


 * Female Prisoner: (Speaking as Rika unlocks her shackles.) He seems like a normal young man, but his eyes turn red and controls people like some dark puppetmaster!


 * Kevin: (Gritting.) Hiroshi-san!


 * Male Prisoner 1: Yes, the one who lives in the old Sakurai Dojo!


 * Kevin: I knew there was something creepy about him!


 * Ben: We have to stop Hiroshi-san!

(Aosei and Shiki abruptly halt in their tracks and look at their hands in confusion while they return to their human forms. The camera focuses in on Hiroshi, who has suddenly stiffened then cuts to a shot of Shiori, a look of shock then dismay across her face as she regrettably uses blood control to subdue him. The camera focuses on Hiroshi, who grunts in discomfort, changes back to his human form then turns to witness the imprisoned villagers, the magisters, Gwen, Kevin, Izumi and Rika approaching the scene, and the shogun Osamu and his army appeared via teleportation. The scene changes to moments later as the human/Shinobian hybrid is arrested, handcuffs placed around his wrists.)


 * Inazuma: You're going to be locked away for life.


 * Hiroshi: Well, at least my work is done. (Turns to Shiori.) Congratulations, Shiori. Now you control blood.

(The camera focuses on Shiori, who is clearly distressed and breaks down in tears. Hiroshi is shown laughing evilly as he is teleported away along with the Shinobian army. The camera then focuses on Shiori, who is crying underneath the full moon as Ben, arm around her, and Shiki, hand on her back, attempt to comfort her. Fades to credits.)
