Narrator: T-Talk about competitive!

Arthur: My father went to our school.

Arthur: I want to preserve the Kalmia High name, no matter what!

Marie: We'll make it happen together, Master Arthur!

Daryl: You there.

Daryl: Might you be Marie, the Zetes family maid?

Marie: Yes. Why?

Daryl: I'm Daryl Blofeld from Perennial High.

Female Student : It's Daryl!

Female Student : He's as perfect as everyone says!

Marie: This guy sure is popular.

Female Student : And he's best friends with Arthur, Mr. Prickly himself!

Daryl: To be honest, I have a favor to ask.

Daryl: Could you tell me what events Arthur is entering?

Daryl: We've ended up on opposing teams, but I want to see my best friend in action.

Daryl: Is something the matter?

Marie: No.

Marie: I didn't know Master Arthur had a best friend.

Daryl: I see.

Daryl: Will this convince you?

Daryl: Arthur secretly can't stand green peppers!

Marie: Th-That's right!

Marie: He'll be competing in equestrian and the piggyback battle.

Daryl: Thank you. That's a big help.

Marie: Um...

Amy: I'm sorry!

Marie: It's not safe to carry them all at once.

Amy: Marie...

Marie: Oh, you're in the Arthur Fan Club.

Amy: I'm Amy.

Amy: I wanted to finish in time to see Arthur ride.

Marie: I know how you feel.

Amy: Thank you, Marie.

Female Students: Oh, Arthur, you're divine!

Amy: I made it.

Bridget: What took you so long?

Marie: What's with the ears?

Bridget: Arthur might mistake us for horses and mount us if we wear these!

Marie: Oh, that's Mister Carl and Madam Charlotte.

Carl: Go get 'em, Arthur!

Commentator: The show jumping competition will now begin.

Commentator: Whoa! What have we here?

Commentator: They're moving in perfect sync!

Commentator: Here comes the next jump and...

Commentator: they clear the hurdle with ease!

Daryl: Arthur!

Marie: Master Arthur!

Roy: Young Master!

Arthur Fan Club: Arthur!

Commentator: What's this?!

Commentator: A last-minute fall!

Carl: It was so placid a moment ago.

Charlotte: Why would it suddenly buck like that?

Marie : Beep boop, beep boop.

Marie : My combat scouter detects danger.

Marie: Master Arthur...

Arthur: Please, calm yourselves!

Arthur: Ladies and gentlemen,

Arthur: pardon me for alarming you. I'm quite all right.

Arthur: Too much fuss will spook the horses.

Arthur: Please check my horse for injuries first.

School Nurse: And you should visit the nurse's office.

Arthur: I know. I'll stop by later.

Marie: Master Arthur.

Marie: Are you hurt, Master Arthur?

Arthur: Marie, look at this.

Marie: What is it?

Arthur: An air g*n pellet.

Arthur: Someone shot my horse between the eyes with it.

Marie: An assassination attempt?

Marie: Not much of one, though.

Arthur: Daryl...

Marie: Daryl? Your best friend?

Arthur: How do you know that?

Arthur: Anyway, he's...

Marie: Master Arthur,

Marie: I am a robot.

Marie: Won't you please tell me what's really on your mind?

Arthur: All right.

Arthur: You're the only one I'd tell.

Arthur: Daryl and I met in elementary school.

Bully : Arthur!

Arthur: I'd yet to be named heir at that point.

Bully : Look at you, getting a perfectscore on another test!

Bully : Who do you think you are? Your mom was just a mistress!

Arthur: I couldn't afford to tell anyone I was being picked on.

Arthur: I didn't want to disappoint my father.

Teacher: Today is our school art day.

Teacher: Split up into pairs.

Daryl: Hey, want to pair up with me?

Daryl: I'm Daryl.

Bully : You pieces of trash belong together.

Arthur: Daryl was a stepchild like me.

Arthur: Daryl, I appreciate the offer,

Arthur: but this is all I have.

Daryl: Don't sweat it.

Daryl: I'm in the same boat.

Arthur: What? Did they throw yours out too?

Daryl: Yup. This is all I've got.

Daryl: But how about we share colors we're missing

Daryl: or mix them and make new ones together?

Arthur: Together?

Daryl: Yeah. Together, we'll pull through.

Daryl: You're not alone, Arthur.

Arthur: From then on, whatever I did,

Arthur: I did with Daryl.

Daryl: What? Your birthday's April th?

Daryl: Mine too!

Arthur: We had so much fun together.

Arthur: What should I do? My sheet music's gone.

Daryl: Don't you know it by heart?

Arthur: But without the actual score...

Daryl: For starters, drink this and calm down, Arthur.

Arthur: Thanks, Daryl.

Arthur: Daryl was even by my side the day of my high-society debut.

Arthur: Huh?

Arthur: All of a sudden, I feel...

Daryl: Arthur, you were practicing so much you weren't sleeping.

Daryl: Exhaustion must've caught up to you.

Daryl: No one knows better than me how hard you worked. What are best friends for?

Arthur: Thanks, Daryl.

Arthur: But...

Arthur: not long after that...

Arthur: I wonder if Daryl will like his birthday present.

Arthur: Daryl?

Daryl: Here's this month's pay.

Bully : Thanks.

Daryl: But man, what a riot.

Daryl: Who nods off on the day of his own debut?

Daryl: Those sleeping pills worked like a charm.

Bully : My folks run a hospital, so they were a cinch to get.

Bully : Oh, and here's the sheet music.

Daryl: I haven't made my debut yet.

Daryl: And he always gets better grades.

Daryl: Just seeing his face pisses me off!

Daryl: I hate his guts!

Daryl: But he honestly believes I'm his best friend!

Daryl: I could die laughing!

Daryl: Oh, that reminds me.

Daryl: sh**t at us with these next time.

Bullies: Air g*ns!

Bullies: Sweet!

Bullies: Awesome!

Daryl: Just make sure you don't hit me.

Arthur: Daryl also resented me after all...

Marie: Understood.

Marie: I'll be right back.

Arthur: Huh? Back from where?

Arthur: Where are you—

Marie: Master Arthur can't bring himself to fully despise Daryl,

Marie: all because he enjoyed their time together, even if it was a lie.

Marie: I'll make sure Daryl doesn't bother him anymore.

Toby: Marie!

Toby: Is it true Arthur was injured?

Marie: Yes. I think he sprained his ankle.

Announcer: Participants in our final event, the piggyback battle, please get ready.

Announcer: Participants in our final event, the piggyback battle, please get ready.

Toby: Arthur and Daryl were supposed to face off in the final event,

Toby: but I guess that's off if he's hurt.

Marie: I'll take his place.

Toby: Huh?!

Toby: Hey, wait! Come back! Hey!

Mechanical Marie

Female Classmate: What?! You mean Arthur won't be in the piggyback battle?

Male Classmate: We'll never win without him!

Announcer: Contestants in the potato sack race, please gather by the gym.

Teammate A: If Arthur isn't competing...

Teammate B: We'll make it up in the potato sack race!

Teammate C: I'm a natural at those.

Teammate D: I hear there's a relay and an individual race.

Marie: What the...?

Noah: If we enter the same event together...

Noah: I can lend you a hand.

Marie: I don't need your help.

Noah: I've got a horse in this race too, you know?

Marie : Goodness gracious.

Marie: Marie ...

Marie: Who are these people?

Marie : They were acting suspiciously around the event areas.

Noah: So we split up and checked out all the different arenas.

Marie : Eliminate.

Male Classmate: No!

Marie: Marie , didn't you swear you were going to mince Noah the next time you saw him?

Marie : They all turned out to be Perennial High School students.

Marie: What? They're from Perennial High?

Noah: I could've sworn they were in my line of work,

Noah: given what they were packing.

Marie: Air g*ns?!

Noah: I get that they want to keep their school name, but this is overkill.

Marie: Daryl is the ringleader.

Noah: Oh, the guy who's supposed to be Arthur's best bud?

Marie : "Best bud"?

Marie : As in, "closest friend"?

Marie: He's no friend.

Marie: Daryl is out to take everything from Master Arthur and make him miserable.

Marie: I'm going to protect Master Arthur.

Noah: But you can't even compete without a team.

MC: With their school names on the line, both sides enter the final game neck and neck.

MC: Like it or not, this next one decides it all!

MC: In the piggyback battle, a team loses when their rider falls off

MC: or gets their headband taken by an opponent!

Carl: The opposing team's put together one tough-looking mount.

Carl: And look! There's Marie.

Charlotte: Arthur must be hurt too badly to compete.

Student: Wait, is that Noah and the younger guys from your club?

Toby: Yup. We owe them for the chicken thing, so I lent them two members.

Daryl: I see Arthur's injury kept him out of the match.

Daryl: And here I was looking forward to a showdown with my best friend.

Marie: For Master Arthur and our school, I can't let you beat me.

Marie: I'll simply fight fair and square.

MC: The match is about to start!

Marie: Noah, we're going for Daryl's head.

Noah: Yeah, yeah.

MC: Whoa! Perennial High starts with a charge!

Perennial Student : Go!

Bridget: We'll seize victory for Arthur!

Amy: Marie, I'm here to return the favor for earlier!

Marie: It's the Arthur Fan Club.

MC: Kalmia High has the upper hand!

Chairman: Our dazzling young ladies are making the difference.

Nicole: Ow!

Bridget: Huh?

MC: Whoops! Did they trip?

MC: Two riders just went down!

Bridget: What was that?!

Nicole: I'm sorry. Something hit my leg.

Marie: Don't tell me it was an air g*n again.

Noah: Marie, keep your eyes on the prize.

Perennial Student: You're mine!

Marie: I know that!

Daryl: I think it's time I got serious!

MC: Whoa! Both schools have kicked into high gear!

School Nurse: Now take it easy until the pain subsides.

Arthur: Okay.

Arthur: Toby, I know how much you've done to save the school name.

Arthur: I'm really sorry.

Toby: Wait, you haven't heard?

Toby: Marie is filling in to take on your friend Daryl for you.

Arthur: She is?!

MC: Perennial High has turned this into a two-on-one battle in a flash!

Chairman: Daryl is riding ace rugby players who made it to nationals, after all.

Chairman: This is shaping into an interesting match.

Daryl: You fought hard, Marie.

Daryl: But you can't beat us. Not ever.

Marie: No.

Marie: I will beat you!

MC: Whoa! It's down to a one-on-one!

Daryl: Say goodbye!

Thomas: Ow!

MC: Whoops! Kalmia High's mount just lost their footing!

Daryl: The end.

Marie: I'm going to lose.

MC: Is that against the rules?!

Chairman: No. Riders who fall are out, but she's safe because she didn't touch the ground.

Marie: Noah, just for today, I'm glad you exist.

Carl: Go get 'em!

MC: Is she bucking convention and taking the fight to the enemy?!

Chairman: Sure. Why not?

Daryl: Marie, I don't know what you uncovered.

Daryl: I mean, I can tell you're upset.

Daryl: But Arthur still considers me his best friend.

Daryl: Or at least, he wants to believe I am.

Marie: Some best friend you are, liar.

Marie: People like you are the reason Master Arthur lost the ability to trust people.

Marie: Don't toy with people's feelings!

Marie: No one hurts Master Arthur on my watch!

MC: Whoa! Perennial High's rider finally went down!

MC: And the winner is...

MC: Kalmia High!

Daryl: So he can't trust people anymore?

Daryl: Great!

Daryl: A guy who can't build decent relationships will never make a good successor.

Daryl: I'm glad I've got one less rival to worry about.

Marie: Master Arthur...

Carl: Did Arthur just... punch someone?

Bridget: So they're not best friends?!

Arthur: Daryl Blofeld has been cheating!

Arthur: I have proof.

Perennial Student A: Daryl threatened to have us expelled if we didn't do it.

Daryl: Really now? I don't know what you're—

Daryl: Is that...?

Arthur: Weak little Arthur who never tried to fight back

Arthur: was all an act so I could get solid proof like this!

Arthur: I'm not...

Arthur: a little boy who only knows how to cry anymore.

Daryl: A-Arthur, we're best friends, aren't we?

Arthur: Yes.

Arthur: When I had nowhere to belong at home or at school,

Arthur: you saved me more than words can say.

Arthur: I don't know how many times I've wished to go back to those days.

Arthur: But I don't need to anymore.

Arthur: Marie, are you unharmed?

Marie: Yes.

Marie: I'm sorry. I didn't mean to overstep.

Marie: But I had faith that you would do this.

Marie: That you would overcome him yourself.

Marie: You're strong, Master Arthur.

Arthur: No, Marie.

Arthur: I can become strong because I have you.

Arthur: Thank you for always being on my side.

Marie: Of course, Master Arthur.

Marie : Dear me.

Marie : My work is never done.

Arthur: Thank you all for your help.

Bridget: N-No need to thank us!

Bridget: We did it because we enjoy it.

Roy: How many years has it been since the young master played the piano?

Marie : A lively rhythm and tempo.

Marie : The musician's mental state has a strong influence on his performance.

Narrator: And they all lived happily ever after... for now.

Next Time

Next Time

Marie: Master Arthur and I take a tropical island vacation.

Marie: But then Roy and Marie , Mister Carl, Madam Charlotte,

Marie: Miss Isabel, Noah, and Prototype No. show up to...
