Trigun Episode 9 : Murder Machine

Meryl and Milly have borrowed some money from Vash to accompany him on a bus ride. They come across a seemingly unconscious man on the road, and the driver stops to take a look. The man jumps up and boards the bus with his gigantic cross. The agents offer him some of Vash's water, and the man introduces himself as Nicholas D. Wolfwood, a priest. After Vash calms down from the loss of his water, he introduces himself to Nicholas using a ridiculous name consisting of about 20 words. The agents remark that he is just Vash the Stampede. The two hit it off quite well, laughing and telling jokes. The bus stops for a break, and Nicholas discovers he does not have enough money for the fare. He strikes a deal with the driver and gets a discount. Pulling out a miniature church he calls a "portable confession box", Nicholas asks the driver if he would like to confess for getting lost or driving into a tree. He next explains to Vash that he works for a private church that houses orphans, and it won't survive without donations. In the background, two impoverished children are complaining to their mother that they're hungry. Their mother has no food to offer them, so Nicholas goes over and offers two small pieces of candy. This brings a smile to Vash's face. Nicholas is glad to see that Vash can express true feeling, since he suspected that Vash's easygoing demeanor hid allot of inner pain. To heal Vash's pain, he offers his confession box. Someone yells that a man has fainted, and everyone rushes to his location. The man has a gash on his arm, and Milly points a gun at Vash suspecting that he did it. Vash replies that it was no human who inflicted that injury.
