Davi: Sleepovers are fearsome indeeed!

Mana: Let's start with Alice!

{OP}

Part 1

Alice: Father! Welcome home!

Seiji (Alice's father): Oh, Alice!
I see you're growing up splendidly.

Alice: Three months wouldn't make {\i1}that{\i0} much of a difference.

Mana: It's been a while, sir. {Mana is using a bit more respectful language than the casual language she usually uses with her friends and peers. Trying to convey respectful language like was used for friends' parents when I was a kid. --Kanmuri}

Seiji: Mana-kun, you and Rikka-kun look to be in good spirits.
Oh, and who might you be?

Alice: They are Kenzaki Makoto and Madoka Aguri.

Makoto + Aguri: Nice to meet you.

Seiji: Wonderful! They're so beautiful enough to debut as a world-class unit!

Alice: By the way, father, I know you've just come back from overseas...

Seiji: But an urgent matter has come up, has it?
Since I have a banquet with the Prime Minister to attend to tomorrow, can you handle it in my place?

Alice: That would not be a problem.

Seiji: I appreciate it. I have to fly to Switzerland after that.
Take care everyone!

Makoto: The Prime Minister...

Aguri: Switzerland...

Makoto + Aguri: Incredible...

Title: Alice's Papa Appears! Sleepover at the Yotsuba House!

Aguri: You certainly have a jovial father.

Lance: Alice's papa is the president of the global Yotsuba Group. {世界中に支社を持つ = has branches across the entire world => global; also in Ep 4 we went with "Yotsuba Group" for Yotsuba Zaibatsu --Kanmuri}

Makoto: Do you even know what a "president" is?

Lance: Nope.

Makoto: But Alice, isn't is difficult to always be helping out your father with his work?

Alice: Sure it is, but it's also fun.
After all, it's for the sake of my dream.

Aguri: Your dream?

Alice: Yes, my dream is to bring smiles to face of everyone the world over.

Lance: Awesome!

Alice: That I have that attitude is thanks to Mana-chan.

Mana: Really? What'd I do?

Aguri: I want to hear the story behind that.

Alice: Well then, I shall tell you.
It took place when I was yet six years of age.

At that time, I was weak in body and would always play alone in the house garden. {庭 = garden, yard, etc. --Kanmuri}

Mana: Watch out!
You okay?

Alice: Yes.
Um.... Who are you?

Mana: Shh!
Do you like butterflies?

Alice: Yes.

Rikka: Mana!
You're not supposed to just barge in there like that!

Mana: I was chasing that butterfly.

Alice: Oh, sorry.

Mana: It's okay. Besides, it's better this way.
Hey, I know a place where there's lots more butterflies. Wanna go there with me?

Alice: Hm? But...

Mana: Ah, sorry.
Asking you out of the blue is probably a bit much.

Alice: Ah, no...
I want to go with you.

Mana: Let's go then!

Alice: Okay!

Maid: Milady!

Sebastian: Let them go.

Maid: Sebastian-sama...

Sebastian: I will take full responsibility.

Mana: You okay?

You know, I've known about you for a while now.

Rikka: We've seen you from outside the gates from time to time, but you never came out of the garden.

Alice: I've got a weak body and my father told me a shouldn't go out of the house.

Mana: Eh? Really?

Rikka: Have we don't something bad?

Alice: It's fine.
This is the first time I remember having so much fun.

Mana: You okay?

Alice: It's nothing, I'm fine.
Besides, I want to go to lots more places now.

Rikka: Really?

Mana: Alright! Let's go!

Alice: Okay!

Mana: I'm Aida Mana.

Rikka: I'm Hishikawa Rikka.

Alice: I'm Alice... Yotsuba Alice.

Alice (flashback narration): And that's how we met.

After that I would often slip out and go play with Mana-chan and Rikka-chan.

Alice: What is this place?

Mana: Rikka and I built it.

Rikka: It's our secret base!
Though it's not quite complete yet.

Mana: So let's finish it together, the three of us!

Alice: I'll help out!

Mana: It's a promise, then!

Alice: Right!

Alice (flashback narration): However, that day I came down with a fever.

Seiji: I have returned.

Sebastian: Milord...

Seiji: Sebastian, this happened under your watch...

Sebastian: My deepest apologies.

Seiji: Are you okay Alice?

Alice: Father...

Seiji: How did this happen?

Alice: The truth is...

Mana: We haven't seen her at all recently.

Rikka: I wonder what's up?

Sebastian: Milady Alice will not be able to play with you anymore.
Milady will be moving overseas.

Mana: Why is that?

Sebastian: Milord has decided she should move to somewhere that will be a better environment for her than here.

Rikka: When is she going?

Sebastian: Today, even as we speak.

Mana: No way!

Maid: Milady, it's time to leave.

Alice: Okay.
Mana-chan... Rikka-chan... I'm sorry...

Mana: Alice!

Alice: How'd you two get here?

Mana: More importantly, you moving overseas...

Rikka: Why's that happening?

Alice: Because I didn't follow my father's instructions...

Mana: Are you really going to go?

Alice: I was told it's for my own good.

Rikka: You're not gonna help us make our secret base?

Alice: I want to!
But I can't go against my father...

Mana: Alice... Alice, what do you want to do?

Alice: Huh?
I... I...

Seiji: Alice, let's go.

Alice: Father!

Rikka: Mana!

Seiji: What's wrong?
Hmm?

Mana: I'm sorry! But...

Seiji: Who are you?
I see, you're the one who took Alice outside.
Open up, Alice!

Mana: Alice!

Rikka: Alice!

Alice: I... I...
I want to stay here. I want to be with Mana-chan and Rikka-chan!

Mana: Alice!

Seiji: Looks like there's no other option...

Sebastian: Wait...

Seiji: Oh, nice timing. Help me out here.

Sebastian: I'm afraid I can't so that.

Seiji: What!?

Sebastian: My job is to safguard milady's happiness and wishes.
I will take on all who oppose those, no matter who they be.

Seiji: I see, so you're the one who let in Alice's friends.
Interesting. Let's see how well you can carry out that mission!

Servant: Forgive us, Sebastian-sama.

Sebastian: Butler Kenpo third form: Swallow's Tail Dance!

Seiji: Well done, but how long can you keep that up?

Alice: Sebastian...

Mana: How's the situation, Rikka?

Alice: That's...

Mana: The butler gave it to us and said we could figure out the house from it.

Rikka: Okay, I've pretty much got it.

Mana: Alice... Let's go! Outside!

Alice: Yeah!
