Blast you, Old Man. Makin' a stupid vow like that...!

Your vow to commit seppuku! Take it back now!

That stupid vow of yours is ruinin' my life, too!

I knew you'd say that.

I'll assist you with Ma's sword.

Slit yer belly here and now!

Take it like a man!

Thank you for helping, Mrs. Saotome.

This is nothing.

Come back here, you--!

Look out, Ranko!

Oh, no!

If he's splashed with hot water, Ranma's secret will be out!

The jig's up!

Upsy-daisy!

Amazing! That's amazing, Ranko!

Kasumi, will you pass the pollack roe?.

Yes, Father.

- Delicious! - It is!

I almost forgot. Akane, you're Ranma's fiancee?.

Y-Yes.

This one's mine.

Is Ranma--?.

Here, Father.

Is Ranma a manly boy?. To you, his fiancee?.

Huh?.

Yes!

Is he good-looking?.

Yes!

Handsome, then?.

- Ye-s-s-s... - Really?.

Why'd ya hesitate to answer?.

Ranma resembles Mrs. Saotome, doesn't he?.

He does?.

Wow! Next to each other, they look exactly alike!

Let's change the subject.

All right.

What's Ranma's hobby?.

Hobby?. That's a safe topic.

Martial arts, I guess.

Cross-dressing, I'd say.

Cross-dressing?.! Such an unmanly hobby?.!

Oh, crossword--! Thank goodness. For a minute, I thought--!

What've ya got against me, anyway?.!

Did I say something bad?.

And how!

Ranma, aren't you going to tell your mother who you are?.

Look here!

I'll take bein' blackmailed by Nabiki any day!

Blackmail?.

You denyin' it?.

That's what you get for wasting your chance.

No matter how much Akane and I want to see our mother...

we can't, anymore.

Ranma...

What, Nabiki?.

I'll let you off with 5,000 just this once.

Crud!

She almost had me for a second there.

Ranko?.

I'm sharing your room tonight.

Let's sleep together.

You don't mind, do you?.

Noo--!

Though you can't reveal yourselves, you're still family.

Spend the night together, at least.

You see, Ranko--

Kasumi...?.

Mrs. Saotome is leaving tomorrow.

So...

She's Ieavin' tomorrow? That's a relief...

Ranma...

Ranma?.

Talkin' in her sleep?.

Ranma...!

She's searchin' for me even in her dreams?.

Ma...!

Ranma!!

Why?.! Why didn't you grow up to be manly?.!

Poor Mrs. Saotome.

She must have had a nightmare.

For Mrs. Saotome and for Ranma's sake as well...

I can't Iet them part Iike this.

Thank you for everyhing.

It's too bad that I was unable to see my husband and son.

Come back for a visit, now.

- Good-bye. - Good-bye, Mrs. Saotome.

Good-bye.

Good-bye.

Take care now, Ranko.

Good-bye.

Good-bye, Ranko.

Great bath, eh, Ranma?.

"Soaking in the hot spring, droplets go plop, plop..."

What's wrong, Ranma?.

Pop, Ma looked real sad.

Ranma...!

Yet you look happy to be rid of her--!

Blast you, Old Man!

It can't be helped.

If she saw you as a girl, we'd have to commit seppuku.

Woulda hurt!

What a stupid vow you made! Seppuku, puh-leeze!

Nag, nag, nag!

I'm sorry, I forgot something.

Oh! It's Mrs. Saotome!

Why, Ranko and the panda.

Are you taking a bath?.

Come again, will you?.

- Good-bye. - Good-bye, Mrs. Saotome.

Good-bye.

Mrs. Saotome...

Mrs. Saotome!

Akane...!

Mrs. Saotome!

What is it, Akane?.

Meet my ma?.!

Ain't it too late?.!

I already promised you'd meet her.

This Sunday in the park.

Don't you want your mom to see you as a guy?.

How do I look in your eyes, Mom?.

Ranma! You're so manly! How attractive you are!

You're a man among men!

I just gotta keep from changin' into a girl!

And try not to overestimate your own looks.

Don't tell your father about this, now.

I'll be goin' now.

Ranma, wait--

Here.

It's not Mother's Day yet, but--

For your mother.

Thanks, Akane.

What're you waiting for?.!

This'll be so sudden...!

Will she know I'm her son?.

Idiot! That's silly!

I'll get to see Ranma?.!

Yes!

I'll describe him to you--

Wait! Don't tell me!

We were apart a long time, but he's my son.

I'll recognize him at first sight!

She'll know you!

Your mother is dying to see you.

Stop, Ranma!

Where are you going?.

Pop...!

You're not getting one step past me!

If you must see your mother, you'll have to take me out first!

Okay!

Aw, c'mon!

I'm only worried about you!

Bug off!

T-Take this scenario, Ranma--!

For all your efforts to meet your mother as a male--

Someone could accidentally splash water on you!

Get real!

Okay, say you avoid that.

A water pipe could burst--!

As if!

Okay, say you dodge that.

A passing goldfish vendor could drop the fishbowls on you.

That'll be the day!

Can't you see I'm trying to save you from seppuku?.!

Ya dirty--!

Mr. Saotome...!!

I knew you'd try something like this!

Ranma!

Ranma!

Ranma made it!

You look exactly like your father!

Mrs. Saotome?. That's not him.

Akane...!

You're here?.

Ranma doesn't look anyhing like Mr. Saotome.

Wait! Don't tell me.

Though parted for a long time, he's my son.

I'll get it right next time.

You're sure about that?.

Ranma!

Where?. Where?.

Ranma! Over here! Here!

Akane!

Mrs. Saotome! It's--!

Mr. Saotome took her away...!

Pop...! What a sneaky move!

Wait for me, Ma!

I promise, I'll find you!

Cut the melodramatics! They're thataway!

Where?. Where?.

Dammit, Pop--!

Mrs. Saotome!

Ranma's not coming?.

Why not?.

Welcome!

She's here.

So she won't find out.

Ma, you're gonna see me as all man!

Ranma...!

Th-This is a boy's hand...!

Ranma...!

Ma...

Ranma...

Ranma!

I'm sorry!

Ranko!

What happened, Mrs. Saotome?.!

Sorry. I got the wrong person.

Yes! Right away!

What're you trying to do, Panda Dear?.

Two can play that game!

Let's go outside for a minute!

What's going on, Akane?.

Akane?.

Do you think Ranma doesn't want to see me?.

Of course, he does!

But I've waited so long, and he hasn't shown himself.

He has, though.

Ya dirty coward!

Don't act so tough. You're scared of seppuku, too!

I ain't scared!

Oh, you're prepared to slit your belly?.

Anyhow--

I just want Ma to see me once as a guy.

Keep quiet, Pop.

Or is there some reason he can't see me?.

What if Ranma--?.!

What if...

What if Ranma is less than a manly boy?.!

How silly. That would never happen, would it?.

What's wrong, Ranko?.!

This kinda cover-up always gets found out.

It'll only make Ma sadder.

You mean, you're scared of dying.

Akane?.

I'm going home.

I'm sure Ranma is a fine boy. I believe in him!

Good-bye.

Ranma...

What?.

I'm sorry for meddling like that.

Your mother wanted to see you so badly.

I just wanted to see her happy face.

But I guess nobody wants to commit seppuku.

I'm not really blaming you.

Oh, SURE, you ain't!

Ranma...

How I wanted to see you!

- The hot spring's exploded! - The radium hot spring!

Oh, my!

Ma!

Ma!!

Ranma!

Ma!

Ran...ma?.

Ranma...!

Ma...!

Ranma!

When Ma sees me like this, do y' think she'll be disappointed?.

Not at all. You were very manly, Ranma.

Ma--!

Hah?.

Ranko...!

Were you the one who saved me?.

N-No...!

Oh.

It was a dream, wasn't it?.

Dream?.!

Ranma came to my rescue.

How gallant he was.

I saw Ranma.

Mrs. Saotome, actually--!

But--!

Let it be a dream for now.

I'll see you again.

Until the day when I'm all male again...

keep this dream in your heart... Ma!

Father, Mr. Saotome?. I'll leave your tea here.

Thank you, Kasumi. You're always so kind.

Bingo!

That was dirty, poker face!

Still no winner?.!

That's how you always run from problems!

- I actually like you very much! - This is so stupid!

That's your mentality.

We're going!

'Bye!

We'll be late, Ranma!

I know! Bug off!

Akane!!

Whatcha doin', Akane?.

Nothing.

Let's go.

See you!
