- Without any doubt.
- Yes. That's him.

- Go!
- OK.

Miyoko Ueda

Who is it?

We've come from Murai police station.
We asked for your help the other day.

Wait a moment!

- How are you? Please come in!
- Hello!

Excuse me.

Come this way.

Please.

Be at ease, please!

- Thank you.
- I'll bring some tea.

Don't bother, please!

What kind of man is he?

He was a spirited activist,
until three or four years ago.

He was the principal suspect in
the embassy arsony.

He remained free for lack of evidence.
After the affair, he disappeared.

He has hidden himself away in that flat.

- Excuse me.
- Thank you!

Your work is really hard.

Sorry. I overheard your conversation.

Is he such a dreadful person?

In the housing estates, there aren't any
relationships between the residents.

I don't know what sort of people
live around here.

Never reveal anything about us, please!

I understand that very well.

If he were to find out,
it would be terrible!

- Please.
- Thank you.

I'm afraid of what young people
are capable of nowadays.

They rebel against all,
smash and burn without exception.

They hurt ordinary citizens.

- Arrest them more and more!
- All right.

I'm sorry. I didn'tknow
what I was saying.

I usually stay in the next room.
Ask anything of me and I'll help you.

- Thank you.
- Please.

I can discuss nothing
in front of that sort of woman.

Me neither.

Excuse me.

- Please.
- Thank you.

I'm back!

- Hi!
- It's cold!

- Yoshiko!
- Wait a little!

We're working.
Please leave us alone.

All right.

The bus was so crowded that
my stockings have been torn.

I'm cold.

- What did you do today?
- Nothing.

- You aren't yourself these days.
- Oh, I'm fine.

Chie is late.

Chie is her younger sister?

I'm back! The bus was delayed.

- That looks deliciousl I'll eat it.
- Take off your coat at least!

- Wash your hands!
- All right.

Delicious?

Meat is so expensive these days.

How about replacing it
with our buttocks?

- You cook curry and rice with them?
- Curry and rice?

- What are you saying? -
- Curry an rice.

Oh! No!

- I want a baby.
- Me too.

Let's give birth at the same time.

- We have to buy clothes for the winter.
- How much will your bonus be?

Maybe 7 or 8 months worth.

I wonder if mine will be
as much as yours?

We have to buy a sweater or
a coat, for our sleepy cat.

By the way, the chief of our
company has got divorced.

They married because they were in love.
He looks very lonely these days.

I like a man like that.

In that case, he would probably
have made love very poorly.

"A female student waiting in a hotel.
Prostitution: You can enjoy fresh skin.

"Women entertain more than men recently.
That's why in Osaka, 'taxi prostitutions'

"are increasing and
young whores earn a lot.

"How about a group of prostitutes
who are all female students?

"Try to play with them at least once!"

No!

I'm afraid the ear pick might
go into your ear too deeply.

Stop, please!

No! Stop it!

- Chieko isn't her sister.
- No.

- What's the situation?
- I wonder.

No! Wait a moment!

No! The detectives are in the next room.

What's happening?

Surrounded by walls,
it's the only fun he can have.

They're making fools of us.

- Where are you going?
- The toilet.

I want to piss.

Ah. Excuse me.

I'm satisfied!

It's really him?

The man arrested recently confirmed it.
There's no mistake.

That man who was nearly beaten to death?

Yes.

Tonight nothing seems to be happening.
Let's sleep.

Good morning!

Wake up! It's time for breakfast.

No!

Quickly!

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

- Newspapers.
- All right.

- Hey!
- What?

- Railway fares are being raised again.
- Really? Disgusting!

I buy a season ticket for six months.

From here to Shinjuku, it costs
760 yen a month.

1200 yen from Shinjuku
to Marunouchi.

They're going to increase more?

- Hey!
- Yes.

I've finished.

It's cold.

From next time on, you pay the fare
when I go to the toilet.

Why?

- Shit.
- Shit?

Fare for seat...

- Unpleasant!
- Unpleasant!

Isn't it time for you both to go?
- All right.

- There's no sign of him moving?
- No.

Don't things on the housing
estates ever change?

Look around! If enclosed
in such a place...

It's normal?

I won't be able to bear this for long.

Excuse me.

Your work is really hard.
Here are some newspapers.

Don't hesitate if you need something!
That is the duty of a citizen.

Don't bother, Madam!

It's nothing! Attending to you
like this is the duty of the nation!

If we need something, we'll call you.

In that case, I'll leave.

She's meddlesome!

Every night, she has nothing
else to do but make love,

so she wants to interfere in everything.

In her dreams, she's received the reward
from the Commissioner and become famous.

My sleepy cat! Your lunch is in
the pot on the electric oven.

Be docile until we get back.
All right?

All right.

- Chie, hurry!
- OK.

- We're goingto be late. Hurry!
- Wait a moment!

We only have ten minutes left.

- See you.
- See you.

They're leaving.

Man dies for certain.
Try imagining that you're dead!

I want to cry while being
pulled by a dog. Damn it!

I want to go to a nearby bar.
Happy or happy again?

Nothing beyond the bar.

He's mocking himself.

A failure is always like this.

He's pitiful, though
a failed reactionary activist.

He'll do something before long,
as if it was completely normal.

I cannot understand that.

We'll exchange your wastepaper
with toilet paper.

I'm getting impatient.

Almost anyone will confess
if they get beaten five or six times.

I doubt it. This kind of man
can be intractable.

What does my neighbour do
in the late autumn?

In the late autumn,
your neighbour smokes.

What on earth is attractive
in such a thin man?

He's easy, that stallion!

In fact, my sterility may be due to
my fear of the visitor

whom my life depends on?

The commissioner general,
at the inspection of each team, said that

he'd give rewards to
the successful ones.

I'd like to outsmart the other teams.

I want to arrest him
and make him confess,

regardless of whether
he's guilty or not.

Don't be in such a rush!

- He's simply going fora walk?
- He might exchange some information.

- Damn it! It's harassment!
- He's guarded.

- He may have nothing to do with this.
- We don't have to conclude hurriedly.

What on earth is he doing?
I don't understand.

I don't either.
A failure cannot help but act so.

Compassion is useless! We cannot
succeed in life with such defeatism.

We'd better torture that man
who confessed once again?

Wait a bit!

Excuse me.
Have some noodles, if you like!

Thank you.

We're back, our sleepy cat.

You're a bad boy!

Day afterday,
today as well as yesterday,

waking up, eating, then sleeping,
then eating and making love,

what is he doing everyday?

Does he have anything
worth living for, like us?

I wonder...

I no longer know what we're watching.

That's worth living for?
It seems foolish to me.

Always...

- I'm going to Albania, without any aim.
- Albania? That far?

If you're lost in the forest?

He'll never be lost,
for he can make maps.

- Maps?
- His maps are so precise.

Chie is late.
She's got a boyfriend, perhaps?

- That's better.
- Of course, for I can only be with you.

No. We're doing fine with the three
of us. Why speak of'just us two'?

That would mean a restraint to you?

I don'tlike sex between just two people.

Why?

It's too normal,
and not at all interesting.

Marriage is meaningless,
unless one can do 'that' for free.

- You think so?
- We mustn't think of betrayal!

I wonder if that's really the way it is?

What's wrong, Chie?

- I was nearly raped.
- Raped, really?

- Are you all right?
- He beat me about the head many times.

- What did he do?
- The man pushed me over and

- squeezed my breasts.
- Like this?

Then he bit my thighs and
tried to pull down my panties.

No! Stop it!

My sleepy cat!

Rape me too!

Once you've been raped,
you won't be afraid any more.

Hey!

- I'm off.
- See you!

Damn! They flirt day after day!

This must be bogus information.

Don't be so emotional!

But aftermore than four days,
we haven't learnt anything.

He does as he likes and,
moreover, he flirts!

Aman with such rotten balls can
really be an important person?

I want to run up there at once
and beat him to death!

But we can't do so.

Yes, I am. I'm an insignificant person.
I'll be happy if you overlook me.

What?

Development of SST
also in Japan, in 1972.

What is this restlessness
after women have left?

Nothing is better than to sleep.

Doesn't he have anything else to do?

I've also become restless.

- He's too lonely.
- And in the next room, too...

Don't complain!
This is also our work.

Nothing seems to be
happening today, either.

No.

Who is it?

- Hi! Imai.
- I haven't seen you for ages.

Come in!

- You live in a nice flat.
- Yes.

Sit down!
- OK.

- Do you want some alcohol?
- Good!

How did you find me here?

In fact, when Saito was arrested,
I happened to hear of you.

A reactionary activist.
Is that his associate?

- We can get some evidence at last!
- Yes.

It'll be hard, as it's winter.

It's very cold there.

We're back now.

- Good evening. Hello!
- A guest? You're welcome.

Go and buy some snacks!
- All right.

Which is yours?

- Which? Both.
- Both? Then you do everything together?

- That too?
- Of course.

You're doing well!
You've hidden yourself in a fine place!

Drink!

They don't fight each other over you?

This is the best place
to hide oneself in.

The police will never find it.

- Are you still an activist?
- Of course!

- So.
- I'm glad to see you.

- When do you go back?
- Where?

- To the front!
- I'm never going back there.

- What?
- I've deserted.

- You're joking?
- It's true. I'll never return.

Hey! Are you betraying your comrades?

Have you lost that tough
passion of yours?

To hide yourself in this way,
in the midst of the armed enemy,

is your response to your fellows
fighting, at the cost of their lives?

That's nothing to do with me any more.

The armed combat you'd passionately
insisted on, and we'd adopted, wasn't

a solution that we'd attained in under-
standing the complicated and difficult

situation caused by the reformation
and re-establishment of imperialism?

Armed combat? Stop dreaming!

Those who can't distinguish themselves
from Che Guevara could do something?

What?

The movement for revolution is nonsense.

- You confuse even its meaning.
- No, with our backs against the wall we...

You're passionate about
pointless things. Don't be a hypocrite!

Bastard!
You've forgotten Bolshevik solidarity!

The evolution of armed combat of our
troops, organized with all our efforts,

in preparation for the final fight in '70,
and for people to rebel with resolve...

I've deserted!

Bastard! What's become of your Marx?
Trotsky? Where's your Paris Commune?

I've made up my mind not to have any
more fantasies. What did that result in?

Only exhaustion, tiredness, fantasies
and supporting the gendarmerie!

I'm fed up with confused fights, which
escalate without any hope of victory.

Bastard! It's the fallout of justice!

You're aiming at
the realization of Utopia?

No. Rather, it's the future itself which
is exerting pressure on us heavily.

I much prefer living with women.

You've betrayed us completely.
You've been degenerated by those women.

Say what you like!
Return now!

What? I'll beat you!

I'll have nothing to do with you
any more! You retreat?

You flee when faced with the enemy?
You're the worst!

I become ashamed, to think you
were a fellow I bled with!

Degenerate bastard Rotten balls!

- He really has deserted.
- It looks like it.

We'll report to headuarters tomorrow.

Here we are.

Where is your guest?

He's gone back.
Let's drink.

I have a headache.

I'm not going to work today.

Miyoko, telephone the company.

I also drank too much;
I have a headache.

You're not going to work?

I'm not going.

Without permission?

I don't care. I'll say,
"I'm having my period."

- Breakfast?
- Sorry. Wait a little longer!

All right.
I'll sleep for days, till it's ready.

- It's very likely to be
false information. - Yes.

My sleepy cat, you'd better go
to the cinema toay.

All right.

Yes. For almost a week, there's been
no sign he would make a move.

Yes. All right. Goodbye.

What do they say?

They say to keep watching until the day
he leaves forthe U.S.A.

It's strange. They do between three
what people normally do between two,

though they look like ordinary people.

They aren't as dangerous as
those who carry bombs to kill.

It was worth marking him so as we could
determine whether he was suspect or not.

- Our sleepy cat is late.
- Something has happened to him?

- Hi!
- Hi!

- You're late.
- Supper is ready?

- What did you watch today?
- A pink film: "At the Risk of Life".

- Was it interesting?
- Yes.

There was a funny episode in it.

The elder sister was twenty,
and the younger eight.

When they tried to get over
a fence one meter high,

the elder could,
but not the younger. Why?

- Why?
- Tell me the reason!

I'll tell you: The younger
hadn't yet had a menses.

Menses?

It's normal!

Menses... Fence.

Menses... Fence?

Ah! I made that out. No!

- Beer!
- All right.

Good!

Good night.

Good night.

Wake up! It's time.

I'm sleepy.

- Newspapers?
- Here.

The Prime Minister leaves
for the U.S.A. Tomorrow.

Conclusion to negotiations
for Okinawa's return.

Today, in 176 places across the country,
extremists plan to attack Haneda.

- Hey! I've finished.
- All right.

What's for breakfast?

Toast and carrot juice,
plus fresh garlic.

- My sleepy cat, I wanta baby.
- Me too.

- I don't want one.
- Why?

Anyway, I don't want one!

Prime Minister Sato leaves
for the U.S.A. This morning.

Guerillas mainly around Kamata

There's no sign he's goingto start moving.

He may be sleeping.

- How about going back to headquarters?
- All right.

I want to go home and relax.

I've been really annoyed by
this man on the blacklist.

Yes. This time we've really been
put out.
