Speed Racer 1x16

Directed by

At the meeting of the League of Countries, the representative from Kapecapek announces his government's decision to close its borders to the outside world. An official proposes that if Kapecapek's racecar driver, named Kabala, beats Speed Racer, then its borders can remain closed. At the racetrack, Speed receives an invitation to the Fire Festival Race. Speed finds this peculiar because Kapecapek doesn't have a racetrack and Kabala has been missing for a long time. Nevertheless, Speed and company arrive in Kapecapek. They spot Racer X, who was also invited. That night Chief Zuma lets it be known that "the winner of the race will be bridegroom" to his granddaughter, Princess Sibana. He points out Speed as the probably winner. But when a jealous Trixie makes it clear that Speed is taken, another driver, Mr. Kadar, steps forward with his offer of matrimony. Later, Mr. Kadar captures the Princess and demands to know where the country's treasure is hidden. Speed comes to her rescue.

1. Never!

2. The borders of my country are closed, gentlemen.

3. We do not want visitors

4. interrupting our peaceful way of life.

5. No country can keep its borders closed

6. to the League of Countries.

7. You may be building secret weapons!

8. He's right.

9. He's wrong!

10. He's right!

11. We do not trust any of you.

12. You may destroy our ancient civilization,

13. and it's the people

14. of Kapedapek who invented civilization.

15. We know that. That's why we wonder

16. just what you're up to now.

17. Right.

18. We're nosy!

19. What have you got to hide?

20. We have nothing to hide,

21. but we don't want strangers in our land!

22. Chief Zuma, I order you to open the borders

23. of your land, Kapedapek!

24. We are a proud people and we will not do as you ask.

25. Do you have a man in your country

26. who's braver than the rest?

27. We do.

28. Who is he?

29. The world's greatest car racer, Kabala.

30. I propose a race between your Kabala and a young man

31. we will put behind the wheel of a car.

32. If Kabala wins, you may keep your borders closed.

33. If our racer wins, you must allow people

34. to visit your country.

35. All right. But Kabala will win, and we will keep our borders

36. closed forever to the world. Wait.

37. You will see how easily Kabala wins

38. against whoever races against him!

39. Stop the car!

40. Speed!

41. Come here!

42. Speed! Speed! Come here!

43. Hi! What's up? Anything wrong?

44. You got an air mail letter.

45. Hey, it's from the country of Kapedapek...

46. It invites me to go to Kapedapek

47. during their Fire Festival

48. and race against their best racer, a man named Kabala.

49. Only if I win will their borders be opened to the world.

50. What a fabulous invitation, Speed!

51. I know it's going to be a thrilling race,

52. and Kapedapek must be a fascinating country to see!

53. And you've never raced against this man named Kabala.

54. A race during their

55. Fire Festival sounds romantic.

56. It sounds like fun to me.

57. I'm sorry, Spritle, but you'll have to stay home.

58. That's an order.

59. That's what you say! I'll ask Speed!

60. Take me with you!

61. Sorry.

62. I have a feeling there may be trouble in Kapedapek.

63. Trouble? What do you mean, Speed?

64. I suspect that Kapedapek doesn't have a race course to race on.

65. You're right, Speed. They don't have one.

66. And the letter mentioned a race, but it didn't say where or how.

67. There's something else that seems very strange to me...

68. Kabala, the driver I'm to race against,

69. has been missing for a long time.

70. That is peculiar, Speed.

71. And there's something else...

72. I feel that something bad'll happen.

73. What makes you feel that way, Speed?

74. Well, bad things happen, I heard,

75. whenever this Kabala is entered in a race.

76. For instance, there was the Grand Flora and Fauna Handicap

77. in Wonbuktu.

78. Was that crash caused accidentally or not?

79. We'll never know...

80. In South America,

81. there was another race along the Amazon River

82. in which the fiercest fish in the world, the piranhas live.

83. There were other races, too, with mysterious crashes.

84. And everybody is convinced that those crashes

85. were caused by the racer named Kabala.

86. You'll have to be extra careful when you

87. race against him in Kapedapek.

88. Don't worry, Trixie, I will be.

89. And what's more, I'm gonna beat him!

90. That's the spirit, Speed!

91. And so, Speed wings his way

92. towards the strangest race of his career.

93. Oh, hi.

94. Spritle!

95. He...

96. You're naughty! You stowed aboard again!

97. Just what are we supposed to do with you, Spritle?

98. Give me a spanking. I deserve it.

99. This is the airport at Kapedapek.

100. It is seldom used because the country's borders are closed

101. to the outside world.

102. But today is a special day, and special visitors are allowed in

103. so they may participate in the Fire Festival Race.

104. The race against the world-renowned

105. and mysterious driver named Kabala.

106. All the famous drivers are here today ready for the race!

107. Look, there's Streak Martin talking to

108. Jim Charger and Guts Buster.

109. It's going to be a very exciting race with all of them.

110. Look who it is.

111. Racer X, the masked racer!

112. So you're here?

113. I didn't know that you were invited to be in the race.

114. Well, I was, Speed, and I'm looking forward to it.

115. Just look at the tough competition

116. we're going to be against.

117. I'm looking forward to racing against a driver named Kabala.

118. So am I, Speed, and I think I can win.

119. But I warn you, you won't have a chance of beating him.

120. Well, I'm gonna try my best to beat him.

121. I will, too, Speed, but I hear that the course

122. will be very tricky.

123. Late that night,

124. the Kapedapekans hold a weird ceremony.

125. Let it be made known that the winner of the race will become

126. the bridegroom of my granddaughter, Princess Sibana.

127. But, Grandfather, I never promised

128. I would marry the winner!

129. The driver I would like you to marry

130. is that one!

131. He looks as if he might be the bravest man in the race,

132. and, if he is, then he's the right one for my granddaughter.

133. But suppose he doesn't wanna marry her!

134. I'd be glad to be her bridegroom.

135. Will you be able to beat Kabala tomorrow?

136. Kabala? He's going to race?

137. Kabala will race and win.

138. Nobody is going to be able to beat him.

139. You're positive Kabala will be in it?

140. Of course I am.

141. But it doesn't make sense to me. Kabala disappeared years ago

142. and nobody has seen him or knows what happened to him.

143. He might not be alive.

144. Racers, let me inform you about Kabala of Kapedapek,

145. the bravest, fastest, and most skilled driver in the world.

146. This is Kabala's home, and over on that wall

147. are pictures of the racers he has beaten.

148. Those skulls in the upper-right corners denote that those racers

149. never were able to race again.

150. A rogue's gallery of defeat.

151. Soon, these pictures will have skulls in the corners.

152. Where's the treasure of Kapedapek hidden?

153. All of my country's wealth!

154. That's right. I want to know

155. where that treasure is kept hidden.

156. It's kept secret even from me!

157. Is that so?

158. Stop lying, Sibana. I want that treasure,

159. and I'll stop at nothing till I get it.

160. I'm not lying about it! Grandfather wants to keep

161. our borders closed against men like you!

162. Tell me where the treasure is or you'll be sorry!

163. Let go!

164. You'll be sorry you did that!

165. Oh, thank you.

166. I'll get even with Speed Racer...

167. Racers of the world, I have just received a challenge

168. from the great Kabala.

169. Impossible! Kabala's dead.

170. I have been told by Kabala to warn you

171. that whoever races against him tomorrow will never race again.

172. Your cars will be smashed off the road

173. and it will be the end of you.

174. The end! Remember, whoever races against Kabala

175. will meet with terrible disaster.

176. I've got to take my chances... and I've got to win.

177. High into the Kapedapekan mountains

178. go the racers

179. who soon will compete in the Fire Festival Race.

180. Wow, I was really scared for a minute.

181. I thought there were ghosts out on the water.

182. Gentleman, the rafts will bring your cars downstream.

183. Why are there so many bones lying over there on the bank?

184. They're the bones of men who tried to

185. get into our country and failed.

186. My grandfather leaves them there as a warning to others.

187. This place is a dead-end. It's impossible to race here.

188. Was everyone brought here to race or explode?

189. This is the secret entrance to the most beautiful

190. and interesting part of our country.

191. Very few people have ever seen it.

192. Why do you keep it locked up?

193. My grandfather doesn't want strangers ruining it.

194. They could spoil it forever.

195. Well, we're strangers. Aren't you afraid of us?

196. Speed isn't a stranger...

197. Oh, but we're strangers, right?

198. Well, I don't think we're going to destroy anything.

199. What's Trixie angry about?

200. Search me.

201. Oh, you wouldn't understand!

202. The ancient city of my ancestors.

203. The tribes of Kapedapek lived here.

204. Looks like a fairy tale city.

205. If only those ruins could talk; what a story they might tell.

206. Well, what do you think of it?

207. The whole world should see this marvelous city.

208. Is that so? You haven't given up yet?

209. That eye's worth a fortune...

210. The rest of the treasure must be nearby.

211. When I find it, I'll be a very rich man.

212. Oh, Speed, I hope you'll win the race tomorrow.

213. That way, you'll prove to my grandfather there's somebody

214. in the outside world who's braver than Kabala.

215. I'll do my best to win, Sibana, but I don't even know

216. when the race is scheduled to begin.

217. Look over at the volcano. When it erupts,

218. the Fire Festival starts and the race will begin.

219. When it erupts?

220. Yes!

221. Now it's almost time for the race to begin.

222. The race to decide whether or not my country's borders

223. will be open to the world.

224. Once every hundred years, a volcanic tunnel is opened

225. underground, and today, it should open!

226. The race will be through this volcanic tunnel

227. and will end at Mt. Rumble.

228. Whatever man makes it through this terrible tunnel

229. will be acclaimed the bravest man in the world,

230. and he will marry my granddaughter.

231. The volcanic tunnel is 800 miles long.

232. If you do not reach the exit within five hours,

233. it will close, and you will be trapped forever.

234. That really means it's going to be a race for life.

235. It also means that, to win, the average speed of the Mach 5

236. will have to be over 160 miles an hour!

237. You must heed my warning! During the race,

238. you must not touch the treasure of Kapedapek!

239. If you do, you will pay with your life!

240. You wouldn't say that unless the treasure is hidden

241. somewhere along the course. That's all I need to know.

242. You're cowards! All of you!

243. Kabala of Kapedapek would not be frightened as you are!

244. By the way, I noticed Kabala hasn't shown up yet.

245. I wonder where he could be.

246. He will get here. He will join the race.

247. We will see about that...

248. Now!

249. Remember, Speed, you've got to average

250. 160 miles an hour in order to get out of

251. the tunnel before it closes for another hundred years.

252. Get ready!

253. Go, Speed! Go!

254. Go!

255. Good luck!

256. Why don't you give up, Chief? Kabala isn't going to make it.

257. The volcano will erupt once again, and before it does,

258. Kabala will come.

259. Look at those cowards!

260. They're quitting the race even before it starts!

261. Could it be that Kabala is even too afraid to show up?

262. There he is! There's Kabala of Kapedapek!

263. Now we're going to win! Nobody can beat Kabala!

264. Nobody in the world!

265. I can't believe it! That's him all right!

266. When the mountain erupts this time,

267. our triumphant race will begin!

268. Start!

269. Will Speed reach the end of the race in time?

270. Or will he be sealed in the volcanic tunnel forever?

271. See the next exciting episode!
