Oh

Thank you.

Have a good day. We will. Bye.

What is it?

I don't want you playing on the national road, okay? It's too dangerous.

menu today. We have a nice gingerbread chicken. Good morning. You're late for

your shift, you know. Yes, I'm sorry.

The walk to school took a while.

Good morning, ladies. You mean you actually walked your children to school

this morning?

Uh -huh.

You worry too much.

I seriously doubt they'd bother making a side trip to the National Road while

they're on their way to school.

Maybe. Don't be a worrywart, Monaco. You're overreacting. Everybody in the

village drives safely.

Maybe so, but outsiders speed and cause accidents all the time.

It can be dangerous around here.

Motoko. Huh?

Your kids are obedient. They listen to what you tell them. They won't play on

the road if you told them not to.

There are new people in town?

Yeah, they just showed up in the middle of the night.

They woke us up, too.

Do me a favor. Would you sprinkle some salt? Right.

Sorry to leave you all alone with a restaurant.

No, it's okay.

The girl who died, Mrs. Kimibu's daughter, she was still quite young,

she? She was only in the 10th grade.

It's all a bit mysterious.

They still don't know the cause of death. That's enough, ma 'am.

It feels like one funeral after another.

Men and women, young and old.

What in the world is happening?

You aren't looking so well today.

Maybe you should go see the doctor.

I heard people say there's a summer cold going around.

Why should I?

I'm fine. There's nothing wrong with me.

That's right, Motoko.

See for yourself. He's as healthy as a horse.

You make a fuss about the littlest things.

You're so timid. I swear you're scared of your own shadow.

But, Mother... Shut up.

I'm going to bed early.

Some rest is all I need.

He hadn't been feeling well? Yeah, he seemed really exhausted lately.

Did he seek help?

No, he said that all he needed to do was get some rest.

That's right. He had hardly ever been sick a day in his life.

My husband was as strong as an ox. He never had health problems in the past.

Well, for now, my preliminary diagnosis is acute heart failure.

Of course, I can't be absolutely certain until after I've done the autopsy.

What's that?

Watch your mouth, you man!

I will not have you cutting my husband into pieces!

That's going to present a problem.

Cause of death is unclear. He didn't seek any sort of medical attention

24 hours of dying. So I can't issue a death certificate.

Okay, I see now.

This is why I hate doctors.

So, how much does it cost to get a death certificate these days?

I think there's been a misunderstanding.

That's how it works, isn't it? I pay an additional fee, and in return, you write

up a death certificate for me.

You just finished ranting about how healthy your husband was.

Healthy people don't drop dead.

Obviously, something was wrong with him. Aren't you just a little bit curious

about what it was?

Why should I be? What good would it do? Knowing why he died won't bring him back

to me.

Yes, you're right about that.

But if you had taken him to a doctor in the first place, we might not be having

this argument.

What the hell?

This all happened because you wouldn't stop nagging at him.

It got too exhausting for him to take.

You're the reason my husband died.

Mother. I caught it.

Careful.

Don't touch it. Keep it down in the hallway.

I'm sorry, Mommy.

Look what we caught, Mom.

Wow, that's amazing.

But you need to let it go now, okay?

Yeah, all right.

Also, I need the two of you to stay away from your grandfather's room for a

while. Why?

Yeah, why?

Just because.

Now, let's let Mr. Dragonfly go.

Who's calling?

Too early.

Yes, hello. This is the roadside restaurant Shigusa.

Konami, something's happened to Isumi.

Motoko? What is it?

We'll take care of it. I've already made a call to the doctor over at the Ozuki

Clinic. But where's your mother -in -law?

Have you heard the latest rumor?

They say there's an epidemic.

It started when those people at Kanemasa moved in.

What are you raving about? The outsiders brought the disease.

Please, get a hold of yourself. They have nothing to do with this.

What's going to happen next? My children!

My breakfast is ready!

Okay.

I heard the younger Mrs. Ozaki isn't doing well. Maybe that's why.

My daughter isn't well either.

That's terrible. I'm so sorry.

Hey, you know, the old convenience store on the National Road has been turned

into a clinic.

On the National Road?

I hear that the Kanemasa's doctor is in charge there.

The Outsider's doctor?

I'd be happy to show you the way if you'd like.

You're doing just fine, aren't you, Shihori? Yeah.

I don't feel sick at all, Grandma.

Shihori?

You're pathetic.

The more you let yourself get worked up, the worse things always turn out.

When will you see that?

I'm going shopping.

Please look after Shihori while I'm gone.

nothing! Stand up and face me!

Thanks to you, my daughter is dead!

You damn old hag!

Damn you! Damn you!

Damn you!

Hello, is this the Sotoba Funeral Home?

My mother -in -law is dead.

But I don't want to touch the body.

I have a small child in the house. Please send somebody right away.

Motoko, I don't want you to think I'm superstitious or anything, but I was

wondering... Do you think it's possible that Iwamo's been pulling your family to

the other side?

It sounds ridiculous, but I know someone who swears they saw him after his

death. Of course, I don't usually believe such stories, but I have heard a

of similar tales recently.

I see.

I knew it.

After your death.

You became one of them.

You took Isumi and Shihori from me.

Hey, Mom.

There's no need to be worried, darling.

We're perfectly safe in here.

No matter what happens, Mommy will protect you.

I haven't seen Motoko around here for a while now. Neither have I. She quit on

me. What? She said that she doesn't want to leave the house.

Oh.

Well, she has suffered a series of family tragedies.

I know, but... I've been thinking, Mom, about Motoko. Maybe

I should go see... Mom?

Dr. Otheki.

I heard a rumor that's going around the village.

Is this really some sort of epidemic?

No, that's not the case.

Will she live?

Motoko, my mother, she died.

Sorry,

did I wake you up, dear?

You're really here.

We need to get you changed. You're covered with mud.

What's this? You're falling asleep?

Now, Mom.

If you're really this sleepy, then we should get you to bed.

Mom!

Are your burns okay?

What burns?

Never mind. Can I get you something?

Actually, I'm a bit hungry.

Okay. I'll make some oatmeal or something.

I don't understand.

What? For some reason, I'm having a hard time eating it.

Maybe it's too hot.

No.

I don't understand this.

Say, economy.

What is it?

What's the date today, dear?

What?

What did I do yesterday? I can't seem to remember.

Yesterday?

Well, let's see.

This is so strange.

I'm eating, but I don't feel any fuller than before.

Maybe you could bandage it up for me?

coming from houses that should be vacant or anything like that?

Okay, Mom.

Here's what we'll do. I'll give you meals like this as often as I can.

I may not be able to do it every day, and I don't know if this will be enough,

but please try.

Don't worry, dear.

Hello?

It's not a clinic.

It's a hideout for the cheeky.

Konami? Konami?

Are you there?

What are you doing?

Shigeki melted. He's gone. What?

Damn that old man to hell.

It's all his fault. Damn him! You need to calm down.

We should get you cleaned up. You smell terrible.

Go to the bathroom.

You stay there. I'll bring a change of clothes.

It's so dark in here. Where's the light?

What's this?

Who's in here?

Come away.

Motoko, as a friend, please forget what you saw.

What? Forget what?

It's my mom. She rose up.

She hasn't attacked a single person.

And I know she never will, either.

She promised.

So I'm begging you.

My mother.

She died.

Ah.

Motoko.

So your mother rose up.

Don't worry. I understand.

I'm glad she came back.

Thank you so much.

Evil old man took the Horde against Tigeki.

And they haven't come back to me.

Why am I left with no one?

Oh, Motoko.

Oh, goodness.

What's that smell?

It's not fair. She got to have her mom back.

Uh, what?

It's Kanami's mom.

She came back to her.

What? She means Tai. Hey, let's go.

Damn you, old man.

Damn you, old man.

Hey, Domo, get up! Anybody with a weapon?

I didn't realize you were here.

Why don't you have a snack with us?

Damn you, old man. We have tea, too.

The food will be all gone if you don't hurry, dear.

Damn you, old man.

Damn you, old man.

Get the trucks.

We're going to Yamaiti. That's where the monster's nest is.

Where are Okua and Shimizu? I'll go get them.

I think they've been there the whole time.

It's so remote, it makes sense.

Damn you old man.

Damn you old man.

Damn you old man.

Damn you old man.

Damn you old man.

Damn you old man.

Damn you old man.

Damn you old man. Yeah, I think we've got all of them now. Damn you old man.

Damn you old man.

Damn you old man.

I beat you, man.

This is what a world ruled by order looks like.

Those who accept order can live together peacefully, protected from the unknown,

safe in their belief that all is as it should be.

But when something happens to threaten this orderly existence, they will fight

the very death.

By eliminating the threat, they hope to preserve the fabric of their lives, the

order that holds their entire world together.

And so they realize...

What a fragile world it is.
