hey everyone and welcome back to our channel my name's kacee and i'm anthony
and we're dos cavazos and this is full metal alchemist brotherhood episode 20.
so massive setup in the last episode we're assuming that ed is gonna meet his father and
we have a lot of questions you know we have been very speculative about like the actual villain
in all of this or the main villain i should say and we've been questioning the father for quite
a few episodes um i feel like this is going to be our first big indication of whether that
we're right or not like are we onto something are we completely off base so in the last episode
lust died um and we also found out about the philosopher's stone being inside the homophilus
um yeah that's that's like a whole new thing it's like i feel like we're getting slowly closer to
the truth about the philosopher's stone i mean like we know a little bit here and there but
i feel like we're slowly getting further and further closer to the truth to the real truth
um and i'm kind of nervous what it's going to mean i feel like it's going to be like okay
the philosopher's stone has to be created for a purpose and if it's not for the purpose you
can't use it i don't know if ed and al are ever going to want to even use a philosopher's stone
because they know the cost of it yeah somebody died obviously to produce that philosopher's stone
and kind of like what you said if what your theory is is that like you know that stone is for one
specific purpose and then it disintegrates um that could also mean why like that uh that like priest
guy too his disappeared after he was done using it because it was only meant for him possibly
i mean that's just the theory but like with that logic they would have to kill somebody
to make their own philosopher's stone so that they can get their own bodies back yeah which
i don't know if they would ever do something like that all right well if you haven't already please

description below all right let's go ahead and get into it hello edward you appear to have grown some
okay really that's all you have to say you tried human transmutation what makes you think you can
show up like this there's nothing left for you here anymore tell me edward what possessed you to
burn down my home you didn't want to be reminded of what you've done you ran away and you know it
but where you been like you kind of ran away too you don't know a damn thing you make me sick
to my stomach maybe if you would have been home to raise your kids
hmm you haven't changed in the slightest all these years and you look exactly the same
where have you been all this time why didn't you come back soon why does he look exactly the same
was that her in the picture let me see like she got older and he didn't
no i'm thinking too far no no my son's transmuted are you positive that it was trisha huh did you
notice the eye color or the hair color are you telling me that that wasn't even tricia what
for all that those boys sacrificed you're saying that thing they created wasn't even their mother
what was it a homoculus or is he just saying that i don't know because he knew he was listening but
i wonder could it be and maybe the philosopher's stone is like the key to making it like whole
you know then for the time being oh you're impervious to pain and you don't have to eat
it sounds like a great deal to me no it isn't you don't know what you're talking about you know you
and brother always got to be the first to explode i never get the chance to be the one to get mad oh
i guess i can't fall asleep i don't think this body will let me hmm oh the first time he found
out he can't sleep he can't eat oh goodness you're the one who tossed his body aside and
put him in that armor aren't you alchemist it's true you and i are exactly the same
edward oh my goodness now we just like oh oh my gosh the red eyes get out of bed already your
father's about to head out show for like one night like all these years later do you mind if i keep
it it's the only photo we had taken with all four of us it's finally gonna be him his face thank you
we still never got to see the picture though do something important pinaco something terrible is
going to happen in this country soon you should escape while you can what the heck this country's
lousy with terrible things got other people who need me here in case they want to come home
i've given you my warning what the [ __ ] is about that what try not to be such a stranger all right
it's too bad i won't get to enjoy your cooking anymore
i mean he's insinuating that she's gonna die oh what the heck how are they going with the show are
they gonna go oh my god they're gonna go dig it up i guess they want to see make sure are you in
my stumps are acting from the weather it's about to rain what do you think they're gonna find
like what if it's still alive like ish like moving around it's like if it wasn't the mom
what did he bring back or what did he create oh goodness what's wrong it's not your joints
i think he's just freaking out yeah oh my god poor thing because it's like what was
the purpose if it wasn't even i'm not gonna be able to move forward until i know for sure
you ran away i won't run away from this what if they need it to bring back al's body
oh man they put it in something hair is that all that's left granny
mom's hair was a light chestnut color this is black then what the then what is it it's much
too long and this pelvis pretty sure it's male um what but i'm afraid this isn't your mother head
what the [ __ ] did you bring to this world then what then who oh [ __ ]
what's this going to do to him it was impossible all along i feel like he accidentally made a
homoculus but like an incomplete one from the moment i made this thing it's been a symbol of
my despair but not anymore al can be returned to normal oh okay did he figure something out through
that i need to ask you something teacher it has to do with when you tried to transmute your baby
oh what about it ed they never realized what al and i transmuted it wasn't actually our mother
i'm sorry to ask you this but the child oh my god oh my gosh are you sure that it was your child
that you brought back is she gonna go check it's good to know my son and his wife helped people
oh so hohenheim did even bother to say where he was going of course he didn't
and i didn't what's wrong with me i can't believe i forgot to give him the message
what a last request from your mother be gone when he returns can you tell him something
i need him to know i couldn't keep my promise i died before he did and i'm so sorry what the
[ __ ] what what is this he'll be able to get his body back right yeah of course he will so
he's only extending the armor so it has a limit yeah i dug up the body that we transmuted in resin
i found out that the thing we buried wasn't really our mother
poor thing but if it wasn't then what happened to me that's just it this has actually convinced me
we can return you to normal how though well the winry do um oh uh do you remember when
al and i got in a fight when we were kids about i would marry you no al told me you turned him down
turned you both down whatever so the question is for both of you then
what was your reasoning you said i just don't like men who are shorter than me
man for something you can't help
i had to be sure al had a memory of something i don't recall so now that we know you remembered
something real then we also know for a fact that really is al bonded in there okay
if i was able to pull that much of you out then i've got a hunch that your body's still
in there and i can pull it out you think my body's still in the portal like in that place
like barry's body but will it take more oh the child that i transmuted it couldn't it didn't
have a single physical trait that could have come from us you're onto something aren't you i thought
that i must have missed something but it was impossible to do in the first place thank you oh
well i'm not really sure why but she said thank you because if she probably doesn't feel like a
failure like this entire time i've been blaming myself for what happened i thought it was me i
thought i was the one who killed mom a second time oh and so did i thanks brother thank you
i wasn't the one who killed mom after all i feel like i've been brought back to life oh our child
wasn't made to suffer twice because of me brother i've met other people who weren't exactly human
but they still managed to live their lives with a purpose and even in this body it hasn't
stopped other people from treating me like i'm still human oh body could reject me any time
but it's the same with being human you never know when you might get sick or die in an accident
so i can still get by like this i can live a somewhat normal life and that's how i've
managed to keep going but now i can't take it anymore i can't take all the nights by myself
oh poor baby oh and that's why i have to get back to normal and you're going to
oh that's weird his shoulders always been so broad
checking them out now so we got to meet their dad and i feel like we have more questions than
answers at this point um he was very ominous in a weird way he told the granny to get out of the
country and he also sparked the idea for ed that the mother the mother that you know they brought
back wasn't actually their mother and now we have to wonder a how does he know that and b like what
was it yes there was a lot of weird things with the dad first of all when he took the picture they
still never showed that the face and the picture of the dad granny did also say that you look
exactly the same what's up with that and i'm like what's up with that first of all why did he even
take the picture was there a reason that he took that you know the plot think it's yet because he
was just there at night like what was it like did he come there just to get the picture he barely
talked to ed like he pretty much just kind of had that first initial interaction al his other son
like you don't even like he clearly doesn't really care about his kids he came there for a purpose i
don't know what it was maybe it was like to put something maybe it was just even put the idea in
ed's head but there has to be another reason for that like there's a reason why he gave him that
idea and i don't know what he's referring to if something bad is gonna happen to this country um
i have a feeling like i don't know i mean i feel like you know this country could be on the brink
of a civil war just because we see like what the like the top government actually is the freaking
leaders of homoculous and you know when that gets like widely known i feel like that could stir some
[ __ ] up down the road uh but i don't necessarily think that's what the father's referring to
um what if that's not even the father what if it's like some person with the father's memory
see my my initial thought is that whatever like they created uh was a homoculus but like a
version of a homunculus that couldn't be completed without the philosopher's stone i feel like the
philosopher's stone possibly is the the key thing in making that but then it's also weird because al
was like inside of it for a little bit so i'm like what's that and they said it's like a
male it was like a male body i don't think that that was al's body because it had the black hair
so i don't really know i feel like though like i don't know like it could go so many ways and i'm
just kind of confused i'm like was that somebody that they didn't even know potentially or was it
just like a completely fabricated partial human or like did they take the life of somebody else
that they don't even realize yeah you know they they did mention that like oh we didn't actually
hurt anyone after all uh i don't know about that though at least for now we're gonna go
off that assumption but it's possible that there is something out there that we still don't know
i feel like i said this episode gave us more questions than answers like i don't know what
i was expecting when we were going to meet the dad besides the fact that i still think that
he's the villain but uh i was expecting a little bit more of an interaction with him i was gonna
i was thinking he was gonna say something more i just felt like we we got so little but mostly
just hints the mom said that weird thing like i didn't die before i died before you which i
mean you could take that at surface level like oh i died before there's more to that like my husband
whatever no i feel like there was something else what's up with that i don't trust anything i mean
we've been questioning the dad since probably like the sixth or seventh or eighth episode something
somewhere along those lines so i still don't think we have a reason to dismiss our distrust in him
