1
00:00:18,170 --> 00:00:20,580
With "A human touch" as our tagline,

2
00:00:22,500 --> 00:00:25,930
we've been in the temp business
 for 15 years now.

3
00:00:25,930 --> 00:00:28,630
We've come close to bankruptcy 
more than once,

4
00:00:28,940 --> 00:00:33,380
but I've used every dirty trick in the book
 to get us back on our feet.

5
00:00:33,380 --> 00:00:37,750
And today, I get to taste the fruits
 of all that I've achieved.

6
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,630
Delicious. Not a hint of poison.

7
00:00:42,630 --> 00:00:45,140
No problems, Mr. President.

8
00:00:45,430 --> 00:00:48,280
Tamotsu. You, too, Natsumi.

9
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:53,700
Congratulations on your marriage. 
Pump out a bunch of healthy boys for me.

10
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:55,530
Cheers!

11
00:00:55,780 --> 00:00:57,340
Cheers!

12
00:01:04,550 --> 00:01:05,580
Mr. President!

13
00:01:06,370 --> 00:01:07,980
You useless piece of—

14
00:01:07,980 --> 00:01:08,930
How?

15
00:01:08,930 --> 00:01:10,290
It wasn't poisoned.

16
00:01:10,290 --> 00:01:12,510
I didn't poison him!

17
00:01:35,390 --> 00:01:37,400
So how'd you do it?

18
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:41,040
How'd you slip poison past 
that hotshot poison taster?

19
00:01:42,340 --> 00:01:45,570
I cultivated an immunity in the taster.

20
00:01:45,570 --> 00:01:48,000
You did? How?

21
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,500
I spent three months 
adding minute doses to his food

22
00:01:52,940 --> 00:01:55,630
until he could survive a lethal dose.

23
00:01:57,060 --> 00:01:59,970
But wasn't that a huge pain?

24
00:01:59,970 --> 00:02:01,050
Well, yeah.

25
00:02:01,290 --> 00:02:04,560
No one would expect me 
to do something so ridiculous.

26
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,680
That's why we're able to stay in business.

27
00:02:08,260 --> 00:02:11,830
By the way, Hikaru, have you given
any thought to you-know-what?

28
00:02:11,830 --> 00:02:12,690
What do you mean?

29
00:02:13,350 --> 00:02:14,740
Marriage.

30
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,680
Akari, do you seriously think 
I could get married?

31
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,080
I don't meet any women in my line of work.

32
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:24,840
But—

33
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,160
I know.

34
00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:30,850
Grandma wants to make one of us 
the new head of the Poison Clan.

35
00:02:31,260 --> 00:02:34,170
When I told her I couldn't 
because I'm single,

36
00:02:34,170 --> 00:02:37,220
she matched me up with 
a total stranger from a branch family,

37
00:02:37,220 --> 00:02:39,390
and nearly forced me to get hitched.

38
00:02:40,580 --> 00:02:42,690
As if I'm that desperate to get married.

39
00:02:43,470 --> 00:02:46,050
So the line of Poison Masters
 ends with me.

40
00:02:46,050 --> 00:02:48,250
I'll spend my life single,

41
00:02:48,250 --> 00:02:50,750
and you should spend yours 
with your girlfriend.

42
00:02:54,250 --> 00:02:58,060
Well, it's not like I can see girls
 going for you, anyway.

43
00:02:58,060 --> 00:02:58,910
Can it.

44
00:03:00,580 --> 00:03:00,700
Bug Master

45
00:03:00,700 --> 00:03:00,830
Bug Master

46
00:03:00,830 --> 00:03:01,450
Bug Master

47
00:03:01,450 --> 00:03:03,320
Bug Master

48
00:03:04,190 --> 00:03:06,370
Long time no see, Bug Master.

49
00:03:07,540 --> 00:03:09,210
Glad to see you haven't changed—

50
00:03:10,290 --> 00:03:11,780
Hey, c'mon, Julia.

51
00:03:12,620 --> 00:03:14,170
Yeah.

52
00:03:18,190 --> 00:03:22,810
I hear the Needle Master 
has three kids now. All boys.

53
00:03:22,810 --> 00:03:24,340
The food bills are no joke.

54
00:03:25,010 --> 00:03:28,540
'Course, I plan to spend my life single.

55
00:03:28,540 --> 00:03:30,390
Less stress that way. You know?

56
00:03:31,070 --> 00:03:32,730
About that...

57
00:03:33,310 --> 00:03:37,400
I'm thinking of getting married soon.

58
00:03:39,150 --> 00:03:41,290
She's a nice, quiet girl.

59
00:03:41,630 --> 00:03:44,420
And she accepts me for who I really am.

60
00:03:44,420 --> 00:03:45,520
Seriously?

61
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,570
Didn't think I had it in me, did you?

62
00:03:48,570 --> 00:03:52,580
To be honest, I figured you had 
even less chance than me.

63
00:03:52,580 --> 00:03:56,330
You wouldn't know it, 
but I worked myself to the bone.

64
00:03:57,100 --> 00:03:59,590
Look at you, turning traitor.

65
00:04:00,050 --> 00:04:01,460
Listen, Gero.

66
00:04:01,950 --> 00:04:06,500
Me getting married won't change 
the fact we're best buds.

67
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,100
Right?

68
00:04:08,460 --> 00:04:09,180
Right.

69
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:10,650
Congrats.

70
00:04:14,170 --> 00:04:15,390
See you, Gero.

71
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,530
Let's do this again 
when things settle down.

72
00:04:19,470 --> 00:04:20,980
Hey, Bug Master.

73
00:04:21,790 --> 00:04:23,510
You're awesome.

74
00:04:24,810 --> 00:04:30,580
I don't think I could ever find 
my special someone like you did.

75
00:04:31,820 --> 00:04:34,470
Marriage never made 
a good impression on me,

76
00:04:35,100 --> 00:04:37,580
but seeing you talk about it today,

77
00:04:37,580 --> 00:04:40,740
I found myself thinking 
maybe it's not so bad.

78
00:04:41,870 --> 00:04:44,900
Not that it makes 
any difference in my case.

79
00:04:49,300 --> 00:04:51,760
It's such an honor to have you here, man.

80
00:04:52,150 --> 00:04:54,660
You seem to be doing 
awfully well for yourself.

81
00:04:55,350 --> 00:04:56,640
We owe that to guys like you.

82
00:04:56,970 --> 00:05:00,220
We offer "cleaning" services 
at reasonable prices

83
00:05:00,220 --> 00:05:03,400
even your average Joe can afford.

84
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,530
Oh, the ladies work here. 
They're assassins-slash-secretaries.

85
00:05:08,530 --> 00:05:12,860
Use them to help with work, 
freshen up, or however you like.

86
00:05:14,620 --> 00:05:16,370
No, thank you.

87
00:05:16,370 --> 00:05:19,210
Hmm? That doesn't do it for you?

88
00:05:19,210 --> 00:05:20,630
Ah, wait, Master! That's—

89
00:05:21,590 --> 00:05:25,190
Bulletproof glass partition. 
Pretty swanky, huh?

90
00:05:26,970 --> 00:05:30,350
Here's the latest piece of human scum
 I'd like your help with.

91
00:05:30,350 --> 00:05:34,640
The heartless marriage swindler,
 Mei Kinosaki.

92
00:05:34,870 --> 00:05:38,720
She's been causing all sorts 
of trouble on our turf.

93
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,650
Take care of her.

94
00:05:43,710 --> 00:05:47,100
Um, who are you?

95
00:05:47,420 --> 00:05:48,910
You're about to experience...

96
00:05:49,470 --> 00:05:52,500
nerve paralysis in your extremities
that'll work toward your brain.

97
00:05:52,500 --> 00:05:56,550
You'll soon be in agony,
as if you're being ripped to shreds.

98
00:05:57,410 --> 00:06:00,910
And you'll be fully conscious throughout.

99
00:06:01,850 --> 00:06:05,260
Finally, I'll finish you off 
with a deadly poison I've concocted.

100
00:06:06,210 --> 00:06:08,570
Time to regret you were ever born.

101
00:06:08,570 --> 00:06:09,430
Um...

102
00:06:09,950 --> 00:06:12,570
My name's Mei Kinosaki.

103
00:06:12,570 --> 00:06:13,330
Have we met be—

104
00:06:13,330 --> 00:06:14,150
Be quiet.

105
00:06:15,890 --> 00:06:17,930
I'm sorry. It's just...

106
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,440
You remind me of my first love.
 I had to ask.

107
00:06:22,810 --> 00:06:26,440
So the marriage swindler 
is flirting to save her skin?

108
00:06:28,250 --> 00:06:31,730
It's true I conned people.

109
00:06:31,730 --> 00:06:35,330
I needed a lot of money

110
00:06:35,330 --> 00:06:38,330
to save my little brother who's sick.

111
00:06:38,610 --> 00:06:43,120
I took all the loans I could get and 
worked jobs I could never admit to anyone,

112
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,590
but it still wasn't enough.

113
00:06:49,750 --> 00:06:55,620
But if I can die with the spitting image 
of the man I love watching over me,

114
00:06:55,620 --> 00:06:58,600
maybe life isn't all bad after all.

115
00:06:59,590 --> 00:07:03,070
So please, at least tell me your name.

116
00:07:06,420 --> 00:07:07,350
It's Gero.

117
00:07:08,250 --> 00:07:11,460
Boss, are you sure about this Gero guy?

118
00:07:11,460 --> 00:07:15,410
I mean, he only works targets 
who are criminals. "Human scum."

119
00:07:15,410 --> 00:07:17,820
Who does he think he is?

120
00:07:17,820 --> 00:07:19,930
He's a Poison Master.

121
00:07:19,930 --> 00:07:23,960
The Gero family is one of the oldest 
in the assassination business.

122
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,320
Anyway, he might have his silly hang-ups,

123
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,200
but he's in high demand. 
That makes him the real deal.

124
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,610
Now, let's watch him work.

125
00:07:30,310 --> 00:07:31,610
Mr. Gero...

126
00:07:33,270 --> 00:07:34,430
What?

127
00:07:36,510 --> 00:07:39,810
I'm sorry. Forget I said anything.

128
00:07:40,500 --> 00:07:42,410
Does this woman...

129
00:07:43,610 --> 00:07:44,690
really have...

130
00:07:46,930 --> 00:07:48,470
the hots for me?

131
00:07:51,610 --> 00:07:53,990
Sorry for calling your emergency line.

132
00:07:54,370 --> 00:07:55,140
What's wrong?

133
00:07:55,580 --> 00:07:58,080
I'm moving back to the main house.

134
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,340
I wanted to tell you before I go.

135
00:08:00,740 --> 00:08:01,580
What?

136
00:08:02,180 --> 00:08:05,550
I'll give birth to a new Poison Master.
An heir to the Gero family.

137
00:08:06,500 --> 00:08:09,050
One of the branch family 
members is also looking for a partner.

138
00:08:09,050 --> 00:08:11,360
Hey, hang on. You don't need to do that.

139
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,470
You don't get it at all.

140
00:08:13,470 --> 00:08:15,140
Grandma's serious.

141
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:21,220
She told me so herself. If you don't carry
 on the line, and I refuse to...

142
00:08:21,220 --> 00:08:25,310
...they'll take away my freedom 
and force me to have babies.

143
00:08:25,310 --> 00:08:28,780
If that's the alternative, 
I'd rather go to them on my terms.

144
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,170
Akari, what about your girlfriend?

145
00:08:33,170 --> 00:08:34,880
I'll have to break up with her.

146
00:08:35,870 --> 00:08:36,880
Don't do it.

147
00:08:37,260 --> 00:08:40,490
What do you suggest? 
Sacrificing yourself in my place?

148
00:08:41,140 --> 00:08:42,910
That'd be even worse.

149
00:08:43,230 --> 00:08:46,270
When else can I make myself useful?

150
00:08:46,950 --> 00:08:48,370
Wait a minute.

151
00:08:50,050 --> 00:08:52,820
If you don't want to die, marry me.

152
00:08:54,570 --> 00:08:58,320
I need to marry to become 
the head of the Poison Clan.

153
00:08:58,780 --> 00:09:02,520
If I have to be with someone, 
I want it to be you. At least you like me.

154
00:09:02,770 --> 00:09:05,290
I can help with 
your brother's illness, too.

155
00:09:07,950 --> 00:09:13,280
Is it fair for me to be so lucky?

156
00:09:15,980 --> 00:09:17,340
Of course...

157
00:09:19,450 --> 00:09:22,370
there's no way in hell I would.

158
00:09:24,370 --> 00:09:27,360
That's the look I wanted to see.

159
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:32,920
I mean, I'm gonna die, and it'd piss me off 
to go out without getting a shot in.

160
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,380
Man, what a relief.

161
00:09:35,380 --> 00:09:41,540
You see couples and whether it's their
personalities, wealth, looks, or whatever,

162
00:09:41,540 --> 00:09:44,720
they're all together 
because they're a good match.

163
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,320
But a piece of shit who proposes 
to a target he can just kill anytime

164
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,480
isn't a good match for anyone.

165
00:09:51,130 --> 00:09:52,440
Figures.

166
00:09:52,660 --> 00:09:56,370
Well, at least, if you're serious 
about finding someone,

167
00:09:56,370 --> 00:09:59,690
you've got to start by coming clean
about how you really feel.

168
00:09:59,690 --> 00:10:02,810
Everyone finds their ideal partner
by figuring each other out,

169
00:10:02,810 --> 00:10:05,750
butting heads, 
and running themselves ragged.

170
00:10:06,570 --> 00:10:11,910
Do you really only want 
to get married for an inheritance?

171
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,010
Uh, Master?

172
00:10:17,010 --> 00:10:19,320
Get on with it already.

173
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,610
We're paying good money
 to watch you work.

174
00:10:23,790 --> 00:10:28,250
I only dispose of human scum
who deserve to die.

175
00:10:28,970 --> 00:10:31,010
It's not a justice thing.

176
00:10:31,340 --> 00:10:33,900
I just don't take jobs that'd
make it hard to sleep at night.

177
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,660
Of course, murder's still murder.

178
00:10:37,210 --> 00:10:42,540
And yet, I sometimes catch myself wanting 
to live in peace with someone I love.

179
00:10:43,370 --> 00:10:45,910
That side of me makes me
 sick to my stomach.

180
00:10:47,620 --> 00:10:48,570
The truth is...

181
00:10:49,410 --> 00:10:55,260
I wanna meet someone I like and lead
a fun, happy life as much as the next guy!

182
00:10:55,570 --> 00:11:00,060
One where she asks, "How was your day?" 
and we chat before falling asleep,

183
00:11:00,060 --> 00:11:04,050
or she says "What's wrong?" when I cough.

184
00:11:04,050 --> 00:11:05,300
But...

185
00:11:06,300 --> 00:11:09,310
There's no way I'll ever
 meet anyone like that.

186
00:11:09,310 --> 00:11:11,950
I never went to school. Not even daycare.

187
00:11:11,950 --> 00:11:15,310
I've lived as a Poison Master
since I was old enough to form memories.

188
00:11:15,540 --> 00:11:18,280
Showing weakness
 leads straight to failure.

189
00:11:19,220 --> 00:11:25,290
I could never open up 
and bare my heart to a stranger!

190
00:11:25,700 --> 00:11:26,830
So—

191
00:11:28,570 --> 00:11:30,160
What are you talking about?

192
00:11:31,210 --> 00:11:36,170
You just poured your heart out to me,
 and we only just met.

193
00:11:36,670 --> 00:11:40,560
You're right that being an assassin
 is a big drawback.

194
00:11:40,560 --> 00:11:45,570
But in that case, just work at meeting 
all sorts of different people.

195
00:11:45,570 --> 00:11:49,520
If you put yourself out there 
and keep at it till you're worn-out,

196
00:11:50,010 --> 00:11:53,810
someone who's into you
 is bound to turn up.

197
00:11:53,830 --> 00:11:56,810
'Course, it'll probably be hell.

198
00:11:58,090 --> 00:12:00,640
Now, get it over with.

199
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,770
I'm human scum.

200
00:12:02,770 --> 00:12:07,030
My brother's medical bills won't get paid
 because I screwed up.

201
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,090
I'm taking away the future of the person
 I care about the most.

202
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,320
How much scummier could I get?

203
00:12:15,830 --> 00:12:17,410
Master Gero.

204
00:12:17,410 --> 00:12:19,000
Why don't ya call it there?

205
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,510
You already got plenty of dating advice
 out of that marriage swindler.

206
00:12:22,510 --> 00:12:25,770
Now, finish this scumbag off.

207
00:12:26,550 --> 00:12:27,890
No.

208
00:12:28,370 --> 00:12:30,010
I need you.

209
00:12:30,820 --> 00:12:33,870
Only an expert matchmaker 
could marry all those people.

210
00:12:34,300 --> 00:12:36,830
So I want to hire you
in that capacity.

211
00:12:36,830 --> 00:12:40,010
I'll do everything I can to keep you
 and your brother alive.

212
00:12:41,180 --> 00:12:43,870
And in exchange, 
you'll help me get married!

213
00:12:47,820 --> 00:12:50,900
I've dated more people than I can count,

214
00:12:51,870 --> 00:12:54,400
but I've never gotten 
a proposal like that before.

215
00:12:54,810 --> 00:12:55,870
Still—

216
00:12:56,210 --> 00:12:58,940
That's if you make it 
out of here, remember?

217
00:12:58,940 --> 00:13:01,710
I'm real disappointed in you, Master Gero.

218
00:13:02,370 --> 00:13:03,870
You see how it is.

219
00:13:03,870 --> 00:13:05,720
We have a deal.

220
00:13:06,950 --> 00:13:13,280
Killing the Poison Masters' heir apparent
will rocket us to the top of the industry.

221
00:13:14,070 --> 00:13:18,650
You people take jobs from regular folk
at rock-bottom rates,

222
00:13:19,090 --> 00:13:22,450
then use what you know to blackmail them
 for the rest of their lives.

223
00:13:23,250 --> 00:13:25,650
How many lives have you ruined?

224
00:13:25,970 --> 00:13:29,680
Like I care. What's wrong 
with taking suckers for a ride?

225
00:13:29,680 --> 00:13:31,410
You think you're some kind of hero?

226
00:13:31,890 --> 00:13:34,250
Just making sure you meet my condition.

227
00:13:35,410 --> 00:13:36,670
You're all...

228
00:13:45,390 --> 00:13:46,890
human scum.

229
00:13:47,550 --> 00:13:48,820
Shoot him!

230
00:13:48,820 --> 00:13:50,300
Kill his ass!

231
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,940
Hey, where'd he go?

232
00:14:07,940 --> 00:14:09,840
You get to have a front-row seat.

233
00:14:12,990 --> 00:14:15,190
Now, watch this Poison Master work.

234
00:14:18,590 --> 00:14:21,130
Wow. So I guess...

235
00:14:21,130 --> 00:14:24,040
you're not just all talk?

236
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:27,120
You really are that good?

237
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,680
They're still nobodies, 
even when they gang up.

238
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,050
Anyway, I only used 
my "300 Torments of Hell."

239
00:14:33,650 --> 00:14:36,740
They'll live, and the trauma 
will keep them out of the business.

240
00:14:39,500 --> 00:14:41,920
Hikaru? You know what I said earlier?

241
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,130
I'm leaving now.

242
00:14:43,130 --> 00:14:43,930
Akari.

243
00:14:47,220 --> 00:14:49,400
You don't need to succeed Grandma.

244
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,820
Like I said, you have no idea what I'm—

245
00:14:53,710 --> 00:14:54,960
I get it now.

246
00:14:56,570 --> 00:14:59,930
Meeting someone you can love
 and build a life with

247
00:14:59,930 --> 00:15:02,230
is about as close to a miracle
 as you can get.

248
00:15:03,180 --> 00:15:05,750
So you ought to live with your girlfriend.

249
00:15:06,940 --> 00:15:08,790
Tell Grandma...

250
00:15:09,540 --> 00:15:12,310
I'm going to get married 
and lead the Poison Clan,

251
00:15:12,650 --> 00:15:17,440
but I'm going to find a partner myself.

252
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,730
Seriously?

253
00:15:20,980 --> 00:15:23,650
You always decide everything on your own.

254
00:15:24,990 --> 00:15:27,670
Well, okay. I'll tell her.

255
00:15:31,580 --> 00:15:34,580
What's the holdup? I can't get around yet.

256
00:15:34,580 --> 00:15:36,970
H-How should I carry you?

257
00:15:36,970 --> 00:15:39,830
I've never touched a girl except on jobs.

258
00:15:39,830 --> 00:15:42,320
Where is it okay to touch?

259
00:15:43,220 --> 00:15:45,340
Oh, don't worry about that.

260
00:15:45,650 --> 00:15:47,090
I mean, I'm a guy.

261
00:15:47,500 --> 00:15:49,190
Oh, in that case...

262
00:15:50,870 --> 00:15:51,500
Huh?

263
00:15:54,030 --> 00:15:56,010
The Poison Master's Search for a Bride

264
00:15:57,740 --> 00:16:00,870
A bath after a blowup hits different,
 don't you think?

265
00:16:00,870 --> 00:16:02,970
Hey, Gero, wanna join me?

266
00:16:02,970 --> 00:16:03,880
No, thanks.

267
00:16:04,770 --> 00:16:06,590
Come on. Where's the harm?

268
00:16:06,590 --> 00:16:07,650
No, thanks!

269
00:16:08,410 --> 00:16:11,150
Ah, I feel fully alive again.

270
00:16:11,460 --> 00:16:12,690
Kinosaki...

271
00:16:12,690 --> 00:16:15,410
"Doesn't look like any man
 I've ever seen"?

272
00:16:15,410 --> 00:16:18,160
Wanna see for yourself?

273
00:16:20,150 --> 00:16:22,860
Why do you wear women's clothes?

274
00:16:22,860 --> 00:16:23,610
What?

275
00:16:23,610 --> 00:16:26,130
Because my latest mark was a man.

276
00:16:26,130 --> 00:16:28,480
I wear men's clothes when I con women.

277
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,090
It's more fun when you can go
 both ways, you know?

278
00:16:31,090 --> 00:16:34,570
So, Gero, proposing to me was 
the best move you could have made.

279
00:16:34,570 --> 00:16:35,430
Pro...

280
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,690
I can teach you how to hook anyone,
 man or woman.

281
00:16:39,690 --> 00:16:41,300
Then, hurry up and—

282
00:16:41,300 --> 00:16:42,340
Here. Look at this.

283
00:16:43,190 --> 00:16:45,920
I've registered you 
for a matchmaking party.

284
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:47,260
Fill in your profile.

285
00:16:47,260 --> 00:16:50,820
Huh? Wait, it's after midnight,
 so this is today.

286
00:16:51,730 --> 00:16:52,890
"Profession"?

287
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,560
Wait. Writing the truth 
is probably a bad idea.

288
00:16:56,970 --> 00:16:59,580
"Self-employed."

289
00:17:00,130 --> 00:17:03,400
There are way more men
 than women coming,

290
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:07,920
so I'll charm all the men 
and leave you with fewer rivals.

291
00:17:08,130 --> 00:17:09,420
Remember, Gero.

292
00:17:09,420 --> 00:17:13,910
Grooming and fashion are just ways 
to avoid making a bad impression.

293
00:17:13,910 --> 00:17:16,190
Improving them will only
get you as far as "nice guy."

294
00:17:16,540 --> 00:17:21,350
No one's gonna fall for you unless
 we find your charm and bring it out.

295
00:17:21,350 --> 00:17:23,340
Try different approaches and see.

296
00:17:25,360 --> 00:17:27,710
Hello. It's nice to meet you.

297
00:17:27,710 --> 00:17:30,860
My research tells me 
first impressions are everything.

298
00:17:31,170 --> 00:17:33,930
I've got the perfect pickup line.

299
00:17:34,650 --> 00:17:35,500
I'm Gero.

300
00:17:36,410 --> 00:17:38,270
I make *** million a year.

301
00:17:38,270 --> 00:17:39,910
What were you thinking?!

302
00:17:39,910 --> 00:17:41,270
She recoiled in horror!

303
00:17:41,510 --> 00:17:45,040
But my "charm" is my income, right?! 
It's the top feature in men!

304
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,780
Maybe, but blurting it out right away
makes you a jerk bragging about money!

305
00:17:49,780 --> 00:17:53,740
At least look her in the eyes and smile
before you say anything.

306
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,580
Maybe I'll look up how to smile
 when I get home.

307
00:18:10,890 --> 00:18:12,710
Gero, we'll try this next.

308
00:18:13,610 --> 00:18:17,030
A dating app will give you a chance
 to settle in and really talk with girls.

309
00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:13,400
Match!

310
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:13,520
Match!

311
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:13,640
Match!

312
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:17,020
Match!

313
00:18:13,350 --> 00:18:13,400
Send a message

314
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:13,520
Send a message

315
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:13,640
Send a message

316
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:17,020
Send a message

317
00:18:17,030 --> 00:18:19,700
I got you a date in seconds.

318
00:18:19,700 --> 00:18:22,020
So let's go bring out your charm.

319
00:18:24,010 --> 00:18:25,580
U-Um...

320
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,200
A Poison Master should never eat anything
someone else serves him.

321
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,700
I developed that instinct 
to protect myself,

322
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:36,370
but I doubt anyone here is out to get me.

323
00:18:36,370 --> 00:18:39,290
So it will be fine! Totally fine!

324
00:18:39,290 --> 00:18:40,770
How was that?

325
00:18:43,390 --> 00:18:45,620
O-Okay, we'll try with this girl next.

326
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:47,990
N-Next is...

327
00:18:50,740 --> 00:18:51,440
Next.

328
00:19:02,710 --> 00:19:06,870
Just today, I met nearly 30 women,

329
00:19:06,870 --> 00:19:09,750
but I didn't exchange contact info
 with a single one.

330
00:19:09,750 --> 00:19:12,910
W-Well, you did the best you could.

331
00:19:14,490 --> 00:19:18,960
Still, I know our goal 
is to find your charm,

332
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,710
but I figured you'd hit it off 
with at least one of them.

333
00:19:22,710 --> 00:19:23,970
Kinosaki.

334
00:19:24,310 --> 00:19:28,060
Maybe I just don't have any charm.

335
00:19:28,060 --> 00:19:30,340
You do. I know you do.

336
00:19:30,340 --> 00:19:33,090
It's just hidden, 
so we can't see what it is yet.

337
00:19:33,450 --> 00:19:36,320
I promise there are people out there
 who will be into you.

338
00:19:36,620 --> 00:19:43,020
I'm gonna polish you up and bring out 
your charm so you can knock 'em dead.

339
00:19:43,580 --> 00:19:46,530
Actually, I did find one thing
 we can work with.

340
00:19:46,930 --> 00:19:47,870
What's that?

341
00:19:48,580 --> 00:19:50,540
You like DIY candy kits.

342
00:19:50,540 --> 00:19:51,420
Huh?

343
00:19:51,420 --> 00:19:54,610
People with niche hobbies 
can have a great time chatting.

344
00:19:54,610 --> 00:19:57,190
Also, is it me, or is this cleaner
 wicked strong?

345
00:19:57,620 --> 00:19:59,710
I mixed it myself. I call it "Joker."

346
00:20:00,150 --> 00:20:04,180
Using deadly poison to fight stubborn stains
 is my favorite way to de-stress.

347
00:20:04,550 --> 00:20:08,390
I can make cleaning agents strong enough 
to melt iron when I set my mind to it.

348
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,990
Oh, is this another niche hobby?

349
00:20:11,550 --> 00:20:13,900
Maybe just never mention
 this one to anyone, 'kay?

350
00:20:17,210 --> 00:20:18,670
Found you.

351
00:20:19,750 --> 00:20:21,780
Well, my place is this way.

352
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:23,360
See you tomorrow.

353
00:20:23,360 --> 00:20:24,150
Sure.

354
00:20:24,950 --> 00:20:28,050
Wait, Kinosaki! What do you mean,
 "tomorrow"? Where?

355
00:20:38,490 --> 00:20:40,930
Add Friend

356
00:20:43,390 --> 00:20:47,580
Mei Kinosaki, what did you do
 to my big bro?

357
00:20:47,810 --> 00:20:48,390
Huh?

358
00:20:48,390 --> 00:20:49,850
Don't give me that.

359
00:20:50,230 --> 00:20:53,130
He used to brag he'd 
make the living fossils

360
00:20:53,130 --> 00:20:55,350
in this lame-ass biz beg for mercy.

361
00:20:55,350 --> 00:21:00,510
Now he's saying he's gonna take over 
the family cleaning service.

362
00:21:01,340 --> 00:21:03,900
Maybe he got tired of life
 in the big city?

363
00:21:10,090 --> 00:21:11,860
That was a lead pellet.

364
00:21:13,300 --> 00:21:15,060
Now that look gets my blood pumping.

365
00:21:15,060 --> 00:21:17,860
I'm gonna make you tell me 
everything that went down.

366
00:21:18,290 --> 00:21:21,750
If you beg for your life like you mean it, 
I might give you another—

367
00:21:21,750 --> 00:21:26,160
I'd rather die than team up with trash
 who con regular people.

368
00:21:28,770 --> 00:21:30,640
You've got guts.

369
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,150
But people who make a living off
 dirty jobs like ours

370
00:21:33,150 --> 00:21:38,410
and still toss around half-assed morals
 about who to target

371
00:21:38,410 --> 00:21:40,220
can't survive in this business.

372
00:21:40,660 --> 00:21:45,350
That pretty face of yours is your weapon. 
I'll make sure you can never use it again.

373
00:21:45,830 --> 00:21:48,160
My next shot'll be a shotgun blast.

374
00:21:49,580 --> 00:21:51,060
B-Boss!

375
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:52,550
Up ahead!

376
00:21:55,190 --> 00:21:56,460
Gero?

377
00:21:56,460 --> 00:21:57,460
Who cares?

378
00:21:57,460 --> 00:21:59,320
Turn him into roadkill!

379
00:22:30,060 --> 00:22:31,830
What the...

380
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,510
Y'know, being a cleaner 
doesn't sound so bad.

381
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:53,350
You dropped this.

382
00:22:54,170 --> 00:22:55,250
Thanks.

383
00:22:55,850 --> 00:22:58,310
Thank you, Kinosaki.

384
00:22:58,310 --> 00:23:02,470
I could never meet so many women
in one day on my own.

385
00:23:02,470 --> 00:23:06,340
Just one rejection would have left me
 moping for a lifetime.

386
00:23:07,620 --> 00:23:10,320
I know I'm hopeless, 
but I'm counting on you.

387
00:23:10,990 --> 00:23:14,220
You know, I didn't get 
anyone's contact info today.

388
00:23:14,220 --> 00:23:15,300
Hey, are you listening?

389
00:23:15,300 --> 00:23:18,660
Gero, would you mind giving me yours?

390
00:23:19,500 --> 00:23:22,110
Friends: 1

391
00:23:22,110 --> 00:23:24,960
I doubt my friends list 
will ever get any longer.

392
00:23:25,370 --> 00:23:26,550
I don't know why,

393
00:23:27,110 --> 00:23:29,740
but you're dazzling me right now.

394
00:23:30,890 --> 00:23:35,270
I've got it. I've found it. 
I've found your charm.

395
00:23:36,130 --> 00:23:40,900
This is the story of the elite assassin
known as the Poison Master, Hikaru Gero,

396
00:23:40,900 --> 00:23:43,050
and his search for a bride.

397
00:23:46,500 --> 00:23:50,000
I mean, people call these kinds
 of places "date spots," right?

398
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,130
Today, you're going on 
your first date... rehearsal!

399
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,580
Let's go on another date.
No business.

400
00:23:50,130 --> 00:23:51,510
What will you say to her?

401
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:52,500
Let's date with 
a view to marriage!

402
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:51,830
No way in hell.

403
00:23:52,130 --> 00:23:53,200
Don't you dare.

404
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,250
What Is "Charm," Anyway?

405
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,550
Next time: "What is 'Charm,' Anyway?"
