Getting Authorization ~ "Hope"


Commentary Navigation
<< Back to Scene 06 Episode #07 Scene List Continue to Scene 08 >>
Screenshots Cut # Description/Dialogue Commentary

195

Close-up of a telephone receiver.
The call light is flashing.

SE <<Briiiing>>




196

Close-up of Tokita holding the receiver.

TOKITA:“It's me. Please get me Manda-san in Tokyo-2.
Yes, the Secretary of the Interior.”

UrsusArctos: Manda is named for Masaomi Manda in Ryu Murakami's Ai to Gensou no Fascism, the Prime Minister of a leftist revolutionary government who is overthrown. All the characters in this sequence - Tokita, Manda, Yasugi and Witz - are named directly after characters from the Murakami novel, as are Toji and Kensuke. (See Character Name Origins for more).




197

An opulent office.
A man on the telephone, with a woman who appears to be a secretary off to one side.

MANDA:“Oh, I've entrusted that matter to Yasugi-kun.
Ask him about it.”

FrDougal9000: The massive window, overall room layout and shot composition reminds me of the Japanese governor's office in EOE (right down to the secretary standing to the side). I wonder if this is the same guy; if so, maybe he took the credit for preventing this crisis and got promoted to an office with a giant pendulum.


imprimatur13: On that tangent, I've always wondered what the symbolism of that pendulum was. It looks symbolic, but I can't figure it out...


ath: Sounds like everyone's favorite triple-agent has a fourth job on the side...


198

Close-up of a golf ball.
Suddenly a golf wood strikes it.

SE <<SHWACK>>




199

A man on a golf course with a haughty demeanor.

YASUGI:“I can't hand down such an important decision over the phone.
Could you submit a formal written request?”

Dr. Nick: If you look up the fanciest status symbols in Japanese society, golfing is pretty high up there. It was especially so during the bubble economy years.


200

The group, listening, with the receiver cord in the foreground.

TOKITA (OFF):“So, I just have to obtain permission from Yoshizawa-san?”

Kendrix: I like how they manage to convey a sense of ineffectual helplessness with just that dangling telephone wire




201

Closer shot. Close-up of Misato.
(She doesn't show it directly, but) she feels a measure of disgust. She speaks in a murmur, coldly.

TOKITA (RIGHT・OFF, DISTANT):“Yes, I've received authorization from Mr. Witz - Yes. ...Yes, goodbye.”

MISATO:“(In a murmur) Passing the buck, huh? (Overlapping)”

SE <<The sound of a receiver being replaced OFF>>

Kendrix: Bureaucracy ahoy! No one wants to take responsibility either. You can basically see the "He's useless!" thought bubble above Misato's head.


imprimatur13: This is an example of what makes NERV great. It's an organization run by idealistic free-thinkers, who aren't bound by bureaucratic red tape. (Gendo. The bridge bunnies are quite interesting folk too, especially Maya with her pillow, and Aoba with his long hair/air guitar.) They would fit in nowhere else, but NERV. (IIRC, Anno said NERV was based on Gainax, because of that attitude.)

Anyway, "Mr. Witz"? Sounds German... UN representative?


ath: Compare (and contrast) with the bureaucrats in Shin Godzilla. One of whom is supposedly the protagonist.


202

Tokita turns around and speaks.
He is a man earnest to a fault.

TOKITA:“From here, we'll be receiving a written authorization.
The operation will be made official.”




203

Misato, irritated.

MISATO:“We don't have time for that!
Anything we do will be too late once that thing has exploded!!”




204

An image of ruins occupying the entire screen. It quickly disappears off-screen, and the advancing J.A. appears (walking at fast speed).
It is alone in the wasteland, and does nothing but advance...

SE <<Resounding footsteps・also, the sound of the wind>>




205

A long shot of the bunker.
The ceiling etc. has been destroyed. The monitor has gone dead, and the galleries are already evacuated.
The controllers have remained where they were. A large number of cords dangle from the ceiling.

SE <<(Sound of a buzzer) Breeeee>>

SPEAKERS:“J.A. (Jet Alone) is currently progressing in the direction of Atsugi.”




206

Misato looks towards Tokita and speaks.

MISATO:“There's no time left. From here on out I'll be acting on my own authority.”

WOMAN:“The rate of movement is increasing at a rate of 0.2 percent each minute.”

Kendrix: She is totally taking charge, inadvertently creating very good propaganda for Ritsuko and Gendo. For not only did JA's creators get embarrassed, the day will now be saved by NERV.




207

Tokita with a sullen expression.

MISATO (OFF):“Excuse me.”

He is dissatisfied, but he understands what Misato is saying.
Perhaps he is angry at himself...

FrDougal9000: Another thing to gush about Evangelion (besides for its production side) is its script. It's very concise, but says everything that needs to be said to help the animators, the actors and everyone else involved figure out exactly what they need to do. In this case, it really helps bring a lot more character and even a bit of subtle development to Tokita, who would otherwise be a no-name idiot that gets swiped aside when things hit the fan.


208

Nameplate on the door of the waiting room:
"“206・The Party of NERV"”

MISATO (p.d.):“Ah, Hyuga-kun?”




209
BGM Start: E-1 rhythm only [Spending Time in Preparation]

Misato changes clothes while talking on a red telephone (seems like she is taking off her trousers).
Her formal uniform is on a hanger in the foreground.

MISATO:“I've arranged matters with Atsugi, so get Shinj-kun and Unit-01.”




210
Ritsuko leaning against a wall with Misato in the foreground. Misato stands up.

Ritsuko is stunned but speaks to her remonstratively.

MISATO:“Send them here with the F-type equipment installed.
Yes, this is an emergency.”

thewayneiac: This must be some of that sabisu she keeps promising us.

ath: The Evangelion Encyclopedia seems to suggest that the "F" in "F-type equipment" stands for "fly".

Misato passes through the foreground.

RITSUKO:“This is pointless. Put a stop to this, Captain Katsuragi.”

FrDougal: I just realized that Ritsuko's watching Misato strip down to her underdress. That's not odd.


ath: That's definitely not odd. (from Die Sterne, for those interested)


211

Shift to a close angle of Ritsuko. She speaks in earnest.

RITSUKO:“How, to begin with, do you intend to stop it?”




212
Misato in front of a locker.
Her hair is bound up in a ponytail.
She looks toward the camera and speaks.

MISATO:“(Earnestly) By human hand, directly.”

Kendrix: It speaks for her that she doesn't mind risking her own life in her often suicidal wacky plans, rather than just sending others into the fire.

When she is done speaking, she flips a switch.

SE <<Kachack psssh>>

The door opens with a "“psssh",” and a protective suit can be seen inside.


213

A large-scale transport aircraft in the midst of descent.
It's a giant (STOL) aircraft dedicated for Eva transport.
Unit-01 can be seen on the underside of the aircraft.

SE <<(Engine roar) RROOARR>>

TOKITA (OFF):“Are you serious?”




214

Misato and Tokita facing one another, with a surviving console in the foreground.
The guests have all escaped.

MISATO:“Yes.”

Misato is not wearing her helmet.

TOKITA:“But the interior will already be fully contaminated.”




215

Close-up of Tokita in profile.

TOKITA:“It's too dangerous!!”




216

Close-up of Misato in profile.
She speaks matter-of-factly.

MISATO:“If it works, everyone will be saved.”




217

The two, motionless, with the console in the foreground.
But, the silence is suddenly broken by an axe plunging into the console.

ーPauseー

SE <<Crash! (plus the sound of glass breaking)>>




218
The remaining controllers, all together, entrust everything to Misato.

CONTROLLER D:“When this control signal is cut off, the hatch opens manually.”

Controller E, in the background, draws out a cord as he speaks.

CONTROLLER E:“You can get inside through the backpack.”


219

Misato nods silently
(with only her head turned towards them.)
There is suddenly heard a word spoken by Tokita.

TOKITA (OFF・RIGHT):“Hope.”




220

Tokita, his back turned, bereft of power and staring into space, with Misato in the foreground.

TOKITA (BACK):“That's the password to delete the programming.”

Kendrix: That password is a telling detail that certainly adds to the flavor of the setting. For all their flaws, Tokita and he others wanted to protect the world in their own way.




221

Misato speaks in earnest, with her gaze alone directed towards Tokita.

MISATO:“...Thank you.”

FrDougal9000: See what I mean with the script? In only a couple of lines of dialogue and brief descriptions, there's so much more conveyed than what most writers would take several exchanges to get across! Goddamn, I love this show!
