So...the human destroyed
his only copy...hmmm.
:20:15
...has long inspired controversy
in our celestial community.
:20:19
As we've seen again today,
many of our finest thinkers...
:20:22
a question of whether or not...
:20:23
Confucius...he's working
to help Shu and the Masters!
:20:26
Impossible. As Prime Minister,
he's supposed to be impartial!
:20:31
Even Confucius wouldn't risk
angering the Jade Emperor.
:20:36
It's just a hunch
:20:37
In the end, however, I believe that
only Author Wu himself
:20:43
can decide the fate of his novel,
"Journey to the West".
:20:48
Prime Minister!
:20:52
Please forgive our
unconventional request.
:20:55
But may we approach the throne?
With fear and trembling?
:21:02
We will hear you
:21:10
Most High Emperor...
:21:12
the Masters would like
to call one witness.
:21:16
How can we know how humans
themselves feel about this book
:21:19
unless we ask one of them?
:21:23
The Masters would like to call to the
stand...the Scholar From Above.
:21:29
I do not like this..
:21:31
Don't worry...I want to testify
:21:34
For the record, what is you opinion
of "Journey to the West"?
:21:40
It taught me how to live.
It's one of the great books.
:21:44
Then why did you yourself destroy
your only copy?
:21:47
That's not true!
:21:48
You deny the charge?
Yes or no, Scholar?
:21:52
The credibility of humanity rests
upon your reply.
:21:57
Well, I ripped up my copy
:21:59
but that's not because
I didn't believe in it.
