Introduction[]

Sharla: Come on, come on... Where is it?
Shulk: You OK, Sharla?
Sharla: ... Aha! Found it! My pocket watch! And still in one piece... more or less.

Shulk: [It’s a beautiful watch.] The design is so elaborate. I’ve never seen one like it. So this is yours?
Sharla: Yes. It was my father’s. He gave it to me before he died.
Shulk: It’s nice. But why was it here?
Sharla: I think I dropped it here when we evacuated the colony. Otharon must have found it.
Shulk: I can tell he looked after it. Does it still work?
Sharla: No. From the looks of things, it stopped when I dropped it.
Shulk: [I can fix it!] If we could just get our hands on an ether battery, I could fix it.
Sharla: Really? That would be amazing, Shulk!
Shulk: I can fix anything, no problem! The people at Colony 9 were always coming to me to fix things.
Sharla: You’re so kind, Shulk. You don’t know how much this watch means to me. I’ll never forget how happy I was when my father gave it to me.
Shulk: I can tell you cherish it. I hope I can make it work again. And if you need me to repair anything else, just ask!
Sharla: I’ll let you know, Shulk. Thank you so much.

Shulk: [It’s ticked its last tock.] It’s a really rare kind of watch. I’m sorry, Sharla. I don’t know if I can fix this.
Sharla: Are you sure? I thought you were good at repairing stuff.
Shulk: Kinda. But not that good. Hold on a second. There might be one way. If we had an ether battery maybe...
Sharla: Leave it to me. I’ll find one. Will you fix it for me then? It’s a family heirloom, you see. My father gave it to me, and I’d be heartbroken if you couldn’t.
Shulk: It sounds like a big deal to you, so I’ll do everything I can. With any luck you’ll get your watch back.
Sharla: Oh, thank you so much, Shulk! I knew you wouldn’t let me down.

Shulk: [It’s kind of dirty.] In fact, the face is all cracked and you can’t even see the time.
Sharla: Oi, careful what you say! It’s not a piece of junk!
Shulk: S-sorry, Sharla. What’s it doing here though?
Sharla: When we ran from the colony, I must have dropped it. Otharon probably picked it up.
Shulk: You know, this thing looks kind of expensive. [Was it a present from someone?]
Sharla: Yes. My father gave it to me before he... passed away.
Shulk: I’m sorry. It must mean a lot to you.
Sharla: It’s all I have to remember him by.
Shulk: Lucky you found it. It’s just a shame it’s not working.
Sharla: A big shame. But at least I’ve got it back.
Shulk: Wait! If I had an ether battery, I think I might be able to fix it!
Sharla: You could?! Don’t joke with me. Can you really fix it?
Shulk: You can’t just get them anywhere, but that’s all I really need. If you want it fixed, leave it to me!
Sharla: Wow... I can’t thank you enough, Shulk. And I’m sure it’ll make Juju happy as well.

Shulk: You know, this thing looks kind of expensive. [You should sell it!] I bet you’d make a fortune!
Sharla: Let me be clear, Shulk. I could never, ever sell this watch!
Shulk: I-I didn’t mean to offend you.
Sharla: This watch was given to me by my dying father. It’s very important to me.
Shulk: I’m sorry. I wouldn’t have suggested that if I’d realised.
Sharla: It’s fine. Forget it. It probably can’t be fixed anyway.
Shulk: Hold on. I reckon I can fix it. All I need is an ether battery.
Sharla: Really? You can fix this?
Shulk: Just leave it to me, Sharla! Back in Colony 9, I was the best repairman around!
Sharla: Then I’ll leave it in your capable hands. Thanks, Shulk!
