1. Father will be home soon.

2. Okay, my rough notes have been burned.

3. The revised documents are in here.

4. Good. It's almost full.

5. I'm home, Rafal!

6. He's not here?

7. Huh? What could he have burned?

8. Th-This is...

9. It can't be.

10. As expected,

11. proving heliocentrism won't be easy.

12. The orbits I've calculated are still far from perfect circles.

13. At this rate, the geocentric model is still more accurate.

14. - Hello there. - Huh?

15. - We met the other day. - Oh!

16. G-Good afternoon.

17. I'm sorry about all that.

18. I've heard you're pretty smart.

19. You're entering university already?

20. Oh, uh, yes!

21. I'll begin studying theology in the next term.

22. Oh? How impressive.

23. I'll do my best to contribute to society.

24. Well then. Farewell.

25. - Just a second. - Huh?

26. That...

27. Didn't that necklace

28. belong to Hubert?

29. Why are you wearing it?

30. It's a reminder.

31. A reminder of my anger at his heresy and the need to remain vigilant.

32. Is that so?

33. Do you know what he was researching?

34. No, not a thing.

35. I see.

36. He contradicted geocentrism,

37. the proper model of the universe.

38. I'd just like to confirm.

39. Will you swear to God that you weren't involved?

40. Of course. I swear it.

41. I believe in the universe that we are taught.

42. Thanks for your cooperation.

43. If you'll excuse me.

44. That freaked me out! He can't just appear suddenly like that!

45. Still,

46. why do they put so much emphasis on words?

47. Huh?

48. It didn't burn?

49. But why is it on my desk?

50. Don't tell me Father—

51. My calculations have been revised.

52. That paper can have trouble burning.

53. You should watch until it's completely burnt.

54. These revisions... Did you do them, Father?

55. I know nothing about any of this.

56. I've been acting too much in the open lately.

57. The lack of materials had stalled my research.

58. Maybe I should rest awhile

59. and resume my research when I've settled at university.

60. ON THE MOVEMENTS OF THE EARTH

61. Rafal!

62. EPISODE THREE I... BELIEVE IN HELIOCENTRISM

63. Is he out?

64. What have I done?

65. Why did I revise those calculations?

66. If...

67. I were to be caught...

68. Hi there.

69. G-Good afternoon.

70. Sorry for the sudden intrusion.

71. I'd like to follow up on a few matters concerning Hubert.

72. Oh, and could I have some water too?

73. Huh? Uh, yes.

74. My, my! That was some commotion.

75. Hubert was a student of yours, wasn't he?

76. Even if he was a heretic, it must be hard on you.

77. N-No.

78. I recognize his heresy.

79. Furthermore,

80. he was just one of many students I've had over the years.

81. I have no special feelings for him.

82. You have a previous charge of heresy yourself.

83. Weren't you also researching the heliocentric theory?

84. Th-That was a long time ago.

85. I've fully recanted.

86. I've never spoken with Hubert about research.

87. I imagine that's true.

88. It's likely that Hubert looked into your past research on his own.

89. And since your recantation, you've devoted yourself to theology,

90. taken in orphans, and desperately tried to improve your reputation.

91. I'm sure you want to avoid a second charge of heresy.

92. Those who betray the faith twice have the devil in their bones.

93. For the sake of the heretic too,

94. we take the strongest measures to exorcise the evil.

95. You know what that means, right?

96. You burn them... alive.

97. Exactly.

98. I haven't directly experienced the suffering they go through,

99. but there are some who break their jaws clenching to resist the pain.

100. How terrifying.

101. However, the physical pain of the flames is the least of their worries.

102. Someone like you will know what I mean.

103. Their bodies turn to ash.

104. There is nothing left to be restored on Judgment Day.

105. Academics are divided about what happens next,

106. but here's what I think.

107. I think they experience nothingness.

108. Memories, experiences, consciousness, the soul, and the afterlife

109. all turn to nothing.

110. I sure wouldn't want that fate.

111. Now then...

112. Your child is conducting blasphemous research, isn't he?

113. What?

114. I hit the mark, huh?

115. A heretic that young... What is the world coming to?

116. How can you just accuse him?

117. Do you have proof?

118. No.

119. Not yet anyway.

120. But you know, Potocki.

121. If you knew he was conducting blasphemous research,

122. and you didn't turn him in,

123. it would be over for you.

124. If you know something, you should tell me soon.

125. Before I gather the evidence.

126. Plus, it's only the boy's first offense.

127. If he recants, he'll be released immediately.

128. Turning him in now would save everyone a lot of pain.

129. Well,

130. that's all I have to say.

131. Sorry to bother you.

132. You really...

133. You really won't execute him for a first offense?

134. No. Of course not.

135. Father.

136. Oh, Rafal.

137. So you're home.

138. Is something wrong?

139. The revisions

140. to my calculations...

141. Huh?

142. - Was it you— - Rafal.

143. Do you think you can prove heliocentrism?

144. Yes.

145. I see.

146. Father—

147. Forgive me. Please go to bed for now.

148. We'll discuss this further tomorrow.

149. Please.

150. Good morning.

151. I'm sorry, Rafal.

152. Now then. Shall we depart?

153. That takes care of the arrangements.

154. Your torture officially begins tomorrow.

155. This here is still a prototype.

156. I call it the Pear of Anguish.

157. When you wind it,

158. it opens up like this.

159. After four turns with this in your mouth,

160. your cheeks will split,

161. and you won't speak for a year.

162. You probably don't know, but the world is full of tools

163. that are designed to inflict pain effectively.

164. Pain is something no one can escape,

165. but there are two ways to avoid it.

166. Recant at your trial tomorrow,

167. and proclaim you'll never associate with astronomy again.

168. Tell us where all your materials are located and burn them yourself.

169. Th-That's it?

170. Yes. Even I prefer not to torture a child.

171. Oh, and this.

172. It's yours, right?

173. Your university admission form.

174. It's still valid, you know.

175. You can recommit your life to theology.

176. The most important choice you make in life

177. is what to give up.

178. You're smart, right?

179. You'll know the right answer.

180. Until tomorrow.

181. Let's meet when you're reborn.

182. Recant and burn my materials.

183. Well, I guess I can do that.

184. I've managed to come this far.

185. This too

186. will work out somehow.

187. Recanting is not the end.

188. Burning my materials is not the end.

189. Being charged is not the end.

190. Whether astronomy is prohibited,

191. or I'm all alone, it's not the end.

192. It's not

193. the end.

194. The end...

195. The end...

196. Why am I doing this?

197. How did I end up here?

198. If I'd never learned about heliocentrism,

199. I would never have found myself here.

200. If not for heliocentrism,

201. I'd still be considered intelligent.

202. I'd be celebrated by those around me.

203. My lifestyle would be comfortable,

204. my future would be promising,

205. and my path forward full of hope.

206. The world would still be easy.

207. Why did I do this?

208. What does heliocentrism mean to—

209. Moon... light?

210. Hasn't this happened before?

211. Just like back then,

212. continuing with astronomy isn't rational.

213. Just like back then,

214. the sky is far away.

215. Not only that, the window I have now is even smaller.

216. But...

217. But why?

218. Now, more than then,

219. I can see the sky

220. clearer than ever.

221. Was it always this beautiful?

222. Does the accused confess

223. to researching the heliocentric theory

224. that heavenly bodies revolve around the Sun, rather than Earth?

225. Yes, I confess.

226. Were you aware that this theory contradicts Church doctrine?

227. Yes, I was.

228. The Church seeks from the accused an official recantation,

229. as well as the disclosure and destruction

230. of all related documents.

231. Understood.

232. In consideration of the accused's impressive academic record,

233. the Church is prepared to permit university admission

234. if he agrees to our demands.

235. Will you accept the admission form?

236. The important thing

237. is what to give up.

238. Choose correctly.

239. They're only words.

240. This will all work out.

241. Now, please recant.

242. I hereby declare

243. that I believe in heliocentrism.

244. Why?

245. You allow prisoners to drink such fine wine?

246. It's a special privilege on the eve of torture.

247. I see.

248. Will you drink with me?

249. It's a shame to do so alone.

250. Why did you ruin our deal?

251. It's simple, really.

252. I thought not burning my materials would aid heliocentrism.

253. There's no use.

254. Don't underestimate torture.

255. By tomorrow afternoon, you'll have told us everything.

256. Your enemy is a resilient one.

257. The thing you all oppose isn't me.

258. Nor is it heretics.

259. It's part imagination

260. and part curiosity.

261. In short, it's truth itself.

262. Truth itself?

263. It spreads like an epidemic.

264. Not even the host can control it.

265. It's not the sort of harmless thing that can be tamed by an organization.

266. So you're saying you'll win?

267. You think that

268. this is the right answer for your future?

269. Of course it's the wrong answer.

270. But a wrong answer is not a meaningless one.

271. By the way,

272. do you know the effects of poppy seeds?

273. Poppy seeds?

274. Well...

275. It's said they were used in ancient Athens.

276. If you mix them with poison,

277. simply put, they allow you to die without pain.

278. I happen

279. to have added some just now.

280. Damn it!

281. - Not your cup. - Huh?

282. The one who drank it was me.

283. Huh?

284. What?

285. Y-You're lying.

286. You...

287. You're out of your mind!

288. You intend to die?

289. I guess.

290. Don't give me, "I guess"!

291. Besides, such a choice violates our teachings!

292. How far will you go to humiliate the Church?

293. A terrifying fate awaits you in the afterlife!

294. No one knows what the afterlife is.

295. To paraphrase Socrates,

296. no one has experienced death,

297. yet everyone assumes it is the greatest evil.

298. Or as Epicurus said,

299. "When we exist, death is not;

300. and when death exists, we are not."

301. Or as Seneca said,

302. "Life is long if you know how to use it."

303. I agree with all of them.

304. Those things were said

305. by heathens from 2,000 years ago!

306. They had no absolute God or salvation!

307. What good are their words?

308. They inspire me.

309. In...

310. Hubert died and disappeared.

311. But the inspiration he left me hasn't faded.

312. I think inspiration

313. is probably more important than lifespan.

314. So faced with this choice,

315. I will let inspiration survive,

316. even if it costs me my own life.

317. You're out of your mind.

318. You're sacrificing your life for something you don't understand.

319. Can't you see

320. how that is madness?

321. You're right.

322. But you could also call it "love."

323. Now then. May I ask to be alone?

324. Is it time already?

325. Yes. Bye now.

326. TEN YEARS LATER

327. It should be higher up.

328. Why is this happening to me?

329. This...

330. This is it.

331. Earth?
