Rukia: Byakuya... // ...nii-sama...!
Byakuya: Be quiet. // Weren't you paying any attention to Lieutenant Kotetsu? // You shouldn't be moving until you're fully recovered.
Rukia: Nii-sama... // Your haori...

Byakuya: Don't worry about it.
Rukia: You're injured...!
Byakuya: I told you, don't worry about it. // Just lie back down for the moment... // ...and wait for your wounds to heal. // For the true battle... // ...is still to come.

Renji: ...It ate him...
Ishida: ! / Abarai! The poison's affecting you as well!!
Renji: Wha - / Unghh?! // Wh... / Why isn't it affecting you, then...?!
Ishida: I've been attacked by that poison once before! / I guess I must have built up a resistance! // More importantly, we need to get the antidote! / Hey! Kurotsuchi Mayuri!! // Guahh!!!
Renji: Ishida~~~~~~~~!!!
Mayuri: What on earth are you babbling about over there? / Naturally, I use a different poison formulation for every battle.
Ishida: Wh... / Why, you...!

Mayuri: "Built up antibodies"? / Nobody with true skill would allow that.
Ishida: Oh, whatever, just give us the antidote!!
Nemu: Ahh... // Mayuri-sama... // I am sorry to trouble you... / But in order to escape from this... / I will be in need of your assistance... // ...Mayuri-sama...
Ishida: ...Hey! // You heard her, didn't you? / Why don't you help her out a little?!
Mayuri: ...How very noisy you are. / Here. / Have the antidote.
Ishida: Gahh! / Don't throw it!!
Nemu: ............
[TN: I'm getting distinct Chiaki vibes from Nemu right now, between her expressions and her teru-teru-bouzu-esque position :p]
Ishida: And hey, forget about that!! / What about helping out the girl -

Nemu: Ngh... // Nghaaaahh! // Ughhh... // Aghh... / Ahhhhhhhh......!
Ishida: What's this...? / There's something wrong with her...!
Nemu: Aghh... // Aghhhh...
Ishida: Hey! / Kurotsuchi Mayuri!! / Get that tentacle thing off her, quickly!!
Nemu: Unghh...

Nemu: Aghh! // !!!
Szayel: You didn't think... / ...you had actually killed me, did you now?

16
Ishida: That voice...
Renji: Szayel Aporro...!
Szayel: Let me tell you the name... / ...of the most important technique of my Fornicaras... / ...and the one in which I hold most pride. // "Gabriel". // This technique... // ...allows me to impregnate the enemy... // ...with myself. // I penetrate the body through the navel...
Nemu: Ungh...
Szayel: ...and lay an "egg" of my own within the body. // This "egg", once spawned, takes over the mother's body completely, developing at an accelerated rate...
Nemu: *pant* // *pant*
Szayel: Until soon enough...
Nemu: ...Ma... // Mayu...ri...sa...
Szayel: The mother herself perishes...
Nemu: ...ma...

17
Szayel: ...and the time of birth arrives. // Now, then...
[bottom text: Next episode, the Mayuri/Szayel Aporro battle escalates still further!! A desperate battle to the death?!]

Szayel: Let us begin once more from introductions... // Kurotsuchi... // MAYURI.
