00:02:05,339 --> 00:02:09,083
Here you are.
Thank you very much.

5
00:02:20,367 --> 00:02:21,612
I'm going out for a bit.

6
00:02:23,438 --> 00:02:24,424
Dear!

7
00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:28,557
What is it?

8
00:02:30,929 --> 00:02:32,937
Did you talk to your mother
about it?

9
00:02:33,563 --> 00:02:34,180
Yeah.

10
00:02:35,131 --> 00:02:37,599
Well, what did she say?

11
00:02:39,533 --> 00:02:42,168
Kiyoko, mother's calling you.

12
00:02:42,474 --> 00:02:43,350
Yes.

13
00:02:47,531 --> 00:02:48,482
Excuse me.

14
00:02:48,843 --> 00:02:52,352
- Sumiko, are you going to be in today?
- Yes. Why do you ask?

15
00:02:53,227 --> 00:02:55,618
It's the equinox. Don't forget
to say your prayers.

16
00:02:56,002 --> 00:02:57,294
Is it?

17
00:03:00,789 --> 00:03:01,887
Thank you for your business.

18
00:03:06,348 --> 00:03:07,270
Did you want something?

19
00:03:07,921 --> 00:03:13,444
Shinji told me you want to tear down
half of the store and start a caf�.

20
00:03:13,444 --> 00:03:15,689
Do you know about this?

21
00:03:16,154 --> 00:03:18,986
We're not going to
tear down the store.

22
00:03:18,987 --> 00:03:20,987
We're going only to use that
empty lot.

23
00:03:21,571 --> 00:03:27,608
I feel sorry for Shinji. He fails at
everything he tries.

24
00:03:28,446 --> 00:03:31,597
But I could help him
with a caf�.

25
00:03:32,726 --> 00:03:34,213
You really want to do that?

26
00:03:35,872 --> 00:03:37,869
I think it would work out well.

27
00:03:38,814 --> 00:03:40,671
Do you really think so?

28
00:04:24,537 --> 00:04:25,473
Hello!

29
00:04:26,969 --> 00:04:30,042
- Mother, it's Kiyoko-san.
- Is she here?

30
00:04:31,459 --> 00:04:32,781
It's been such a long time.

31
00:04:33,595 --> 00:04:34,439
Come in.

32
00:04:35,878 --> 00:04:38,578
Thanks for the visit.
You got here just in time.

33
00:04:39,367 --> 00:04:40,517
It looks delicious.

34
00:04:49,408 --> 00:04:52,050
Next year, it'll be the seventh
anniversary of your mother's death

35
00:04:52,050 --> 00:04:54,369
and the 13th anniversary
of your father's.

36
00:04:56,388 --> 00:04:57,762
Is that right?

37
00:04:58,863 --> 00:04:59,787
You'll do something with us

38
00:04:59,788 --> 00:05:01,688
on the anniversary of
your father's death, won't you?

39
00:05:02,414 --> 00:05:03,221
Yes.

40
00:05:05,051 --> 00:05:06,635
Is everyone happy at your place?

41
00:05:07,636 --> 00:05:10,636
Yes. Sumiko is going
to get married.

42
00:05:11,767 --> 00:05:14,230
- Who is she getting married to?
- Shimada. He's in the printing business.

43
00:05:14,778 --> 00:05:17,588
Everyone must be busy with
the preparations.

44
00:05:17,981 --> 00:05:18,846
This is for the the altar.

45
00:05:19,374 --> 00:05:20,284
Thank you.

46
00:05:21,468 --> 00:05:23,928
We couldn't do anything for
you when you got married.

47
00:05:23,928 --> 00:05:26,495
But you didn't need it;
everyone wanted to marry you.

48
00:05:34,117 --> 00:05:37,440
- Here you are.
- It might be sweet enough for you.

49
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:38,708
Is Sho-chan well?

50
00:05:39,185 --> 00:05:42,369
He's well,
but his pay never goes up.

51
00:05:43,074 --> 00:05:47,019
We get by one way or another.
She helps me out quite a bit.

52
00:05:47,699 --> 00:05:48,931
Have some of these.

53
00:06:17,213 --> 00:06:20,583
That's why I said that I don't
need anything that fancy.

54
00:06:21,153 --> 00:06:22,479
Yes, you do.

55
00:06:23,273 --> 00:06:25,331
As a household, we have
to send something of about that value

56
00:06:25,332 --> 00:06:26,332
or we'll be embarassed.

57
00:06:26,838 --> 00:06:28,750
Mother, you talk about the family,

58
00:06:28,751 --> 00:06:30,751
but a family means something different
these days.

59
00:06:32,914 --> 00:06:34,689
That's because you get yourself
involved in stupid things

60
00:06:34,690 --> 00:06:36,690
and cause everyone a lot of trouble.

61
00:06:52,243 --> 00:06:53,450
Excuse me,
but I'm going home now.

62
00:06:53,450 --> 00:06:55,404
- Thank you very much.
- Goodbye.

63
00:07:25,616 --> 00:07:28,082
Kiyoko, do you have a minute?

64
00:07:28,964 --> 00:07:31,707
What is it?
Are you going out?

65
00:07:34,421 --> 00:07:35,451
Do you need some?

66
00:07:35,967 --> 00:07:38,045
Sorry. I dropped it again.

67
00:07:38,045 --> 00:07:39,641
What are we going to do
with you?

68
00:07:42,634 --> 00:07:43,601
This will do, won't it?

69
00:07:50,413 --> 00:07:51,842
Did Sumiko go out?

70
00:07:55,151 --> 00:07:58,290
She shouldn't be going out so much
before she gets married.

71
00:08:01,445 --> 00:08:03,130
She has to do it now while
she still has the chance.

72
00:08:03,661 --> 00:08:05,490
- Madame.
- Yes?

73
00:08:06,254 --> 00:08:07,517
They're here from Tokyo.

74
00:08:09,100 --> 00:08:10,677
Hello there.

75
00:08:11,488 --> 00:08:12,860
It's been a long time.

76
00:08:14,874 --> 00:08:16,793
Rumiko, you've got
so much bigger!

77
00:08:17,431 --> 00:08:18,638
Are you going to say hello?

78
00:08:20,345 --> 00:08:22,484
Hello. Come in.

79
00:08:30,533 --> 00:08:31,646
Have a seat.

80
00:08:39,118 --> 00:08:42,445
Hi there, Rumi-chan. Thank you for
coming all this way to see me.

81
00:08:43,212 --> 00:08:46,566
Aren't you going to say something?
Where's your "hello"?

82
00:08:47,545 --> 00:08:48,839
You must be tired.

83
00:08:49,980 --> 00:08:51,606
It's been such a long time
since I've seen you all.

84
00:08:51,852 --> 00:08:55,050
- I hope everyone's been well.
- Everyone's fine, thank you.

85
00:08:55,624 --> 00:08:57,308
Thanks for coming all this way.

86
00:08:58,247 --> 00:08:59,478
It's been a long time.

87
00:09:00,536 --> 00:09:01,995
And congratulations for
Sumiko's engagement.

88
00:09:01,996 --> 00:09:03,996
We got the wedding announcement
in the mail.

89
00:09:03,995 --> 00:09:04,576
You did?

90
00:09:05,532 --> 00:09:08,036
I was thinking that I should
come and help,

91
00:09:09,037 --> 00:09:13,037
but it took us so long
to actually get here.

92
00:09:13,518 --> 00:09:17,489
There was need to worry. Weddings
these days are much simpler.

93
00:09:19,483 --> 00:09:21,511
But how's Zenichi getting along?

94
00:09:22,169 --> 00:09:26,620
He's somehow managed to
stick with this job for quite a while.

95
00:09:27,048 --> 00:09:28,591
Is that right?

96
00:09:30,571 --> 00:09:34,499
But who knows how long it will last.
This time, the company might be the problem.

97
00:09:34,905 --> 00:09:37,894
Well, the economy is bad everywhere.

98
00:09:38,895 --> 00:09:41,895
It's like the sun went down
on this town.

99
00:09:42,894 --> 00:09:46,153
And yet Shinji is talking about
opening a caf�.

100
00:09:48,206 --> 00:09:49,046
A caf�?

101
00:09:53,970 --> 00:09:56,414
The last time you were was
the year before last, wasn't it?

102
00:09:57,415 --> 00:09:59,415
It was grandfather's funeral.

103
00:10:00,121 --> 00:10:01,338
That's right.

104
00:10:01,841 --> 00:10:04,007
Rumiko's got
so much bigger!

105
00:10:05,259 --> 00:10:07,430
Kiyoko-san, you're not going
to have a baby yet?

106
00:10:09,238 --> 00:10:10,236
No.

107
00:10:11,438 --> 00:10:13,797
I want one soon!

108
00:10:18,824 --> 00:10:20,260
They say you're going to
open a caf�?

109
00:10:20,572 --> 00:10:21,585
Yes.

110
00:10:23,036 --> 00:10:24,896
He's going to tear down half
the store.

111
00:10:26,274 --> 00:10:28,767
That's not true!
We're just going to use the empty lot.

112
00:10:29,434 --> 00:10:32,636
Oh, you mean the place where
they're putting the boxes now?

113
00:10:32,965 --> 00:10:36,548
That's a good idea.
But it might be difficult.

114
00:10:37,291 --> 00:10:43,873
It will be. What with Sumiko's
marriage, this guy is playing around.

115
00:10:44,498 --> 00:10:46,345
I am not!

116
00:10:48,028 --> 00:10:53,379
Just when the family needs a lot
of money, he goes out and wastes it.

117
00:11:01,347 --> 00:11:02,815
It sure is pretty.

118
00:11:03,358 --> 00:11:04,574
Is this granny's?

119
00:11:04,967 --> 00:11:09,228
Don't touch it.
It's quite something, isn't it?

120
00:11:09,891 --> 00:11:13,496
But it doesn't cost as much
as Shinji says, you know.

121
00:11:14,061 --> 00:11:16,515
It would cost you twice as
much to buy this stuff in Tokyo.

122
00:11:16,515 --> 00:11:17,873
Is that so?

123
00:11:20,678 --> 00:11:21,332
Thank you.

124
00:11:22,985 --> 00:11:24,423
You can just leave it there.

125
00:11:24,816 --> 00:11:26,313
Sorry.

126
00:11:35,524 --> 00:11:37,864
You should hire a maid
after I leave.

127
00:11:39,147 --> 00:11:41,484
Don't worry, I'll be fine by myself.

128
00:11:42,731 --> 00:11:44,126
Granny is so cheap.

129
00:11:45,867 --> 00:11:48,462
But she has a lot to pay
for with the wedding.

130
00:11:49,444 --> 00:11:53,376
She's so tight-fisted that
I'd rather she just stay out of it.

131
00:11:54,744 --> 00:11:56,195
Really?

132
00:11:57,045 --> 00:11:58,290
She has to marry you off,

133
00:11:58,291 --> 00:12:02,291
and everyone here knows that you're the daughter
of the people who run the Eiryudo.

134
00:12:02,785 --> 00:12:04,985
At the very least, he has to avoid
embarrassing the family.

135
00:12:05,345 --> 00:12:07,494
But she fusses about this or that

136
00:12:07,495 --> 00:12:10,495
everytime we go to get
something for the wedding.

137
00:12:17,547 --> 00:12:23,120
Kaku-san? I see.
Thank you very much.

138
00:12:23,327 --> 00:12:27,393
He was with us for a long time.
He's a good guy.

139
00:12:29,393 --> 00:12:31,621
Good evening.
Who are you talking to?

140
00:12:31,621 --> 00:12:32,823
Don't forget next week.

141
00:12:32,823 --> 00:12:35,124
Don't be stupid. Keep your
mouth shut about that.

142
00:12:35,125 --> 00:12:36,125
Excuse me for a second.

143
00:12:36,832 --> 00:12:39,079
Do you want to talk?
It's your buddy Shin-chan.

144
00:12:39,337 --> 00:12:40,558
From the Ryueido?

145
00:12:41,037 --> 00:12:44,414
What are you two doing? Hurry up
and get to your customers.

146
00:12:45,997 --> 00:12:49,391
Hello. Oh, I see.
Well, talk to you later.

147
00:12:56,332 --> 00:13:00,853
I was just talking to Kunio at the Akagiya.
He said that Kaku-san would help us.

148
00:13:02,321 --> 00:13:03,635
He's from the Haruna Kitchen?

149
00:13:03,994 --> 00:13:04,976
Yes.

150
00:13:06,338 --> 00:13:09,521
Then we'll have to get some money
together soon.

151
00:13:10,458 --> 00:13:13,579
Yes, I went to the Nishijimas
about that yesterday.

152
00:13:13,580 --> 00:13:16,580
I think that they can do something
for us, but...

153
00:13:17,328 --> 00:13:19,949
Didn't they just redo the back
of their house?

154
00:13:20,852 --> 00:13:24,127
In the end, my mother ended up taking
300,000 yen for Sumiko's wedding.

155
00:13:24,709 --> 00:13:27,684
Of course, if we hadn't spent all
that money for her wedding,

156
00:13:27,684 --> 00:13:29,481
no one would have taken Sumiko.

157
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:32,992
Maybe I should try asking.

158
00:13:34,725 --> 00:13:36,814
For money.
From Yumiko's brother.

159
00:13:37,482 --> 00:13:38,728
Yumiko's brother?

160
00:13:39,419 --> 00:13:42,695
Yes, he works at a bank.

161
00:13:42,695 --> 00:13:46,989
I'll go and talk to him once we're
finished with Sumiko's wedding.

162
00:13:50,655 --> 00:13:52,495
Kiyoko, Rumiko says that
she's sleepy.

163
00:13:52,900 --> 00:13:55,568
What's wrong with you?
Can't you get a futon out for her?

164
00:13:56,167 --> 00:13:57,136
But...

165
00:13:57,399 --> 00:13:59,663
Don't worry, I'll do it.

166
00:14:22,648 --> 00:14:23,881
Good morning!

167
00:14:25,022 --> 00:14:26,194
This is a surprise!

168
00:14:26,817 --> 00:14:28,669
The last time I saw you
was New Year's Day.

169
00:14:28,670 --> 00:14:31,670
- That's right. Come in.
- I can't stay.

170
00:14:41,304 --> 00:14:43,677
- How's your brother?
- He's fine.

171
00:14:44,529 --> 00:14:47,649
To tell you the truth, I wanted to
talk to him about something.

172
00:14:47,906 --> 00:14:50,449
- About what?
- We'd like to borrow some money from the bank.

173
00:14:50,449 --> 00:14:52,843
- How much?
- 300,000 yen.

174
00:14:53,628 --> 00:14:54,557
Why all that money?

175
00:14:55,558 --> 00:14:57,558
We want to put up a caf�
next to the shop.

176
00:14:59,021 --> 00:15:00,458
A caf�?

177
00:15:01,730 --> 00:15:05,246
Yes. The store isn't doing
too well.

178
00:15:06,046 --> 00:15:08,835
A lot of new places have
gone up on the main street.

179
00:15:10,736 --> 00:15:11,917
That's true.

180
00:15:13,664 --> 00:15:16,441
And Sumiko's wedding
has cost a lot.

181
00:15:16,982 --> 00:15:20,352
- Is Sumiko getting married?
- Yes.

182
00:15:21,317 --> 00:15:24,761
What do you think?
A caf� with a simple menu.

183
00:15:25,496 --> 00:15:26,833
Are you going to run it?

184
00:15:27,351 --> 00:15:31,013
Yes. Today I'm going to
talk to someone about that.

185
00:15:31,013 --> 00:15:33,728
Do you know the Kitchen Haruna,
down by the station?

186
00:15:33,794 --> 00:15:36,359
I'm going there to learn how to run a caf�,
how to cook, how to make a coffee,

187
00:15:36,359 --> 00:15:38,116
and things like that.

188
00:15:39,411 --> 00:15:41,388
What do you think about the money?

189
00:15:41,976 --> 00:15:43,415
I'll ask him as soon as
I get the chance.

190
00:15:43,802 --> 00:15:44,972
Thanks.

191
00:15:45,679 --> 00:15:48,879
But if you're going down by the station,
you should just ask him yourself.

192
00:15:48,879 --> 00:15:50,819
The bank is very close to the Haruna Kitchen.
It'd be faster that way.

193
00:15:51,251 --> 00:15:52,301
Me go to the bank?

194
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:57,128
No, call him from the Haruna.
Tell him you'll take him out to lunch.

195
00:15:57,889 --> 00:15:59,428
That's right, I could do that.

196
00:16:08,622 --> 00:16:10,525
Father, are you going home?

197
00:16:12,374 --> 00:16:13,742
Yes.

198
00:16:16,743 --> 00:16:18,743
It won't be fun
to go back there.

199
00:16:19,872 --> 00:16:22,681
You're not going to tell me that they're
going to fire you, are you?

200
00:16:24,143 --> 00:16:25,577
I don't know.

201
00:16:27,261 --> 00:16:28,407
What?

202
00:16:33,491 --> 00:16:35,717
Why is he going back without us?

203
00:16:37,261 --> 00:16:39,087
Because he's busy at work.

204
00:16:42,877 --> 00:16:45,190
Why aren't we going back
with him?

205
00:16:45,643 --> 00:16:48,152
Auntie Sumiko's getting married
and things are busy around here.

206
00:16:48,152 --> 00:16:51,037
We're going to stick around for a
few days and help with things.

207
00:16:52,536 --> 00:16:54,953
Be good so that Granny
doesn't yell at you.

208
00:17:01,872 --> 00:17:05,560
The caf� that Shinji wants to
put up will cost a million yen.

209
00:17:06,716 --> 00:17:12,456
What? Well, I guess it would cost
about that much.

210
00:17:16,076 --> 00:17:20,369
A million yen.
Sumiko's wedding cost a lot, too.

211
00:17:23,136 --> 00:17:25,242
That's the way things go
out here in the country.

212
00:17:27,237 --> 00:17:29,728
Couldn't you get something
from them?

213
00:17:30,729 --> 00:17:32,729
Even a little?
You're the oldest brother.

214
00:17:35,023 --> 00:17:38,783
But even if I am the oldest,
I left this place.

215
00:17:40,257 --> 00:17:42,308
Are you saying that you can't
ask, because you married me?

216
00:17:49,718 --> 00:17:54,869
I'm starting from zero.
Please help me out.

217
00:17:55,821 --> 00:17:57,985
We'll do what we can for you.
Won't we?

218
00:17:58,313 --> 00:18:00,090
That's right.
Starting tomorrow.

219
00:18:00,418 --> 00:18:01,682
Hard working, eh?

220
00:18:07,608 --> 00:18:10,026
Thanks for coming.

221
00:18:10,431 --> 00:18:14,134
What was it that you wanted
to talk to me about?

222
00:18:14,630 --> 00:18:16,217
Well, let's sit over here.

223
00:18:18,912 --> 00:18:21,033
How are your grandchildren?

224
00:18:21,584 --> 00:18:24,326
Thanks for asking. They say grandchildren
are cuter than your own kids,

225
00:18:24,326 --> 00:18:26,146
and you know,
that's absolutely true.

226
00:18:26,715 --> 00:18:30,151
By the way, I heard that
the Sakamotos in Teramachi

227
00:18:30,152 --> 00:18:32,152
married off their second daughter.

228
00:18:32,613 --> 00:18:35,749
Yes, and you just married off
your daughter.

229
00:18:36,725 --> 00:18:38,521
Well, marriage is my business
after all.

230
00:18:39,892 --> 00:18:40,749
Excuse me.

231
00:18:41,706 --> 00:18:42,746
Sorry to keep you waiting.

232
00:18:42,949 --> 00:18:44,605
- How much is it?
- 150.

233
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:48,770
Welcome back.

234
00:18:55,137 --> 00:18:55,978
Where's Shinji?

235
00:18:56,353 --> 00:18:57,460
He just went out.

236
00:18:57,916 --> 00:19:00,456
Really? How about Kiyoko?

237
00:19:00,954 --> 00:19:03,373
She's still not back.

238
00:19:05,713 --> 00:19:07,536
What am I going to do with
those two?

239
00:19:07,537 --> 00:19:09,537
They just leave the house
unattended like that.

240
00:19:12,610 --> 00:19:14,045
Granny, look!

241
00:19:15,351 --> 00:19:19,259
I see you've drawn a picture.
Who is it?

242
00:19:20,260 --> 00:19:22,260
Is this a ghost or something?

243
00:19:22,728 --> 00:19:24,292
No, it's a bride!

244
00:19:25,369 --> 00:19:31,404
Now I see. It's auntie Sumiko.
Very well done!

245
00:19:50,539 --> 00:19:53,957
They say you can borrow about 300,000 yen
without putting up any collateral.

246
00:19:53,957 --> 00:19:56,700
- Is that so?
- The term is only three months, though.

247
00:19:58,055 --> 00:20:00,676
But you can talk to them about extending it,
when the three months are up.

248
00:20:00,676 --> 00:20:03,479
You can go to talk to them
in four or five days.

249
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,480
They'll look into our finances,
won't they?

250
00:20:06,814 --> 00:20:08,077
That's right.

251
00:20:08,421 --> 00:20:10,526
The folks at the Haruna say
that I can go everyday.

252
00:20:11,378 --> 00:20:12,062
I see.

253
00:20:14,528 --> 00:20:17,009
We could put the door here.

254
00:20:17,745 --> 00:20:22,781
Yes, and the counter would
come up to here.

255
00:20:29,020 --> 00:20:31,797
I think it should be as comfortable
as possible.

256
00:20:31,798 --> 00:20:32,798
I think so, too.

257
00:20:35,401 --> 00:20:37,652
What should we call it?

258
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:43,974
I wonder if there's a good name
out there.

259
00:20:49,057 --> 00:20:51,458
<i>HARUNA KITCHEN</i>

260
00:20:56,706 --> 00:20:57,877
That should be enough.

261
00:20:59,702 --> 00:21:04,003
Push it from the front.
So it doesn't stick.

262
00:21:05,004 --> 00:21:07,004
From the front.
Here, let me show you.

263
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,960
Like this. Try it again.

264
00:21:21,646 --> 00:21:23,644
It looks like your skills have
improved quite a bit.

265
00:21:27,831 --> 00:21:30,508
- Do you think it's OK to leave it here?
- Of course it's alright.

266
00:21:34,334 --> 00:21:36,412
- Come in!
- Hello!

267
00:21:45,839 --> 00:21:47,137
I wonder if it's any good.

268
00:21:47,415 --> 00:21:48,166
It's fine.

269
00:21:48,570 --> 00:21:50,691
You can say that even before
you taste it?

270
00:21:55,819 --> 00:21:57,034
What will it be?

271
00:21:58,099 --> 00:22:00,622
- What are you going to have?
- Yes, what should I have?

272
00:22:01,804 --> 00:22:03,215
I see you bought a bicycle.

273
00:22:04,594 --> 00:22:06,947
- The Madame told me the other day.
- What did she say?

274
00:22:07,380 --> 00:22:10,625
That young women these days are
buying bicycles instead of samisens.

275
00:22:11,265 --> 00:22:12,797
Did she really say that?

276
00:22:13,092 --> 00:22:14,695
Sure. Why wouldn't you
buy a bicycle?

277
00:22:16,275 --> 00:22:17,710
It's pretty good.

278
00:22:18,612 --> 00:22:20,193
That's a relief!

279
00:22:20,734 --> 00:22:22,391
Is it better than mine?

280
00:22:22,900 --> 00:22:26,016
- It is!
- That's not possible.

281
00:22:39,878 --> 00:22:45,336
What does he say?
Doesn't he need you in Tokyo?

282
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:47,918
No, he says that he's
going away

283
00:22:47,919 --> 00:22:50,919
on a business trip somewhere
for about a week,

284
00:22:50,918 --> 00:22:56,115
so it's OK for us to stay on here.
It's not a very serious letter.

285
00:22:57,915 --> 00:22:59,705
Is that so?

286
00:23:00,431 --> 00:23:02,476
I didn't expect him to write as
soon as he got back to Tokyo.

287
00:23:02,476 --> 00:23:04,956
I thought he might send maybe
a postcard or something.

288
00:23:05,624 --> 00:23:07,801
It's a big help for you
to be here.

289
00:23:08,802 --> 00:23:11,802
Kiyoko is never around
these days.

290
00:23:12,474 --> 00:23:14,702
It's not as if she's out fooling around,
you know.

291
00:23:24,898 --> 00:23:26,937
- Half of these are still not done.
- Sorry.

292
00:23:27,435 --> 00:23:28,448
What were you doing
all day, today?

293
00:23:28,448 --> 00:23:30,680
I did go through them all
once again.

294
00:23:30,911 --> 00:23:32,738
- Well, get it finished.
- Yes.

295
00:23:39,613 --> 00:23:40,877
Where are you going?

296
00:23:42,226 --> 00:23:45,302
About the money, they say
that they'll give it to us.

297
00:23:45,303 --> 00:23:47,303
I'll go and pick it up tomorrow.

298
00:23:49,221 --> 00:23:50,250
Is that so?

299
00:23:50,250 --> 00:23:52,029
Where are you going?

300
00:23:52,418 --> 00:23:53,292
To the barber.

301
00:23:53,979 --> 00:23:55,490
Really? Well, bye.

302
00:24:15,408 --> 00:24:17,046
Will the counter
come out to here?

303
00:24:19,620 --> 00:24:21,696
It'll come out a little more.

304
00:24:22,161 --> 00:24:23,437
We'd like it so people
can sit comfortably.

305
00:24:23,438 --> 00:24:25,438
Don't worry, there's plenty
of space.

306
00:24:28,531 --> 00:24:29,904
The tea's ready.

307
00:24:31,153 --> 00:24:32,338
Thank you.

308
00:24:33,351 --> 00:24:35,755
I'd like to look at the front again.

309
00:24:42,606 --> 00:24:43,915
Hello.

310
00:24:52,961 --> 00:24:53,963
What's going on with you?

311
00:24:57,450 --> 00:24:58,903
Daddy!

312
00:25:06,015 --> 00:25:12,223
Rumiko, were you a good girl?

313
00:25:14,158 --> 00:25:16,297
Hey get me some water.

314
00:25:22,302 --> 00:25:28,745
Look, I got you a present.
Here it is. And here's another.

315
00:25:48,360 --> 00:25:49,550
Here you are.

316
00:25:56,141 --> 00:25:58,060
You were drinking, weren't you?

317
00:26:00,699 --> 00:26:02,399
The train was crowded.

318
00:26:05,003 --> 00:26:07,201
What's happening
at the company?

319
00:26:16,528 --> 00:26:17,792
Cigarettes?

320
00:26:27,370 --> 00:26:31,023
Hey, tell me what's going on.
What happened?

321
00:26:36,377 --> 00:26:37,454
What happened?

322
00:26:41,716 --> 00:26:43,500
Your brother is here from Tokyo.

323
00:26:48,532 --> 00:26:49,660
It looks like the tea's
already cold.

324
00:26:50,661 --> 00:26:53,360
I'll get the estimate and the
plans to you as soon as possible.

325
00:26:53,360 --> 00:26:54,515
I see.

326
00:26:58,175 --> 00:27:01,331
Weren't you supposed to be
on a business trip?

327
00:27:04,686 --> 00:27:07,557
Rumi-chan, it looks like your father came
from Tokyo to come and get you.

328
00:27:08,769 --> 00:27:10,615
We're always imposing on you,
I know.

329
00:27:11,374 --> 00:27:12,674
No, not at all.

330
00:27:13,858 --> 00:27:17,864
I like having Kaoru here.
It's a big help.

331
00:27:18,691 --> 00:27:21,351
I don't think that's true.

332
00:27:21,871 --> 00:27:25,724
That's because Mother won't hire
a maid even after Sumiko has left.

333
00:27:26,512 --> 00:27:31,144
I've never once had a maid
since coming to this place, you know.

334
00:27:32,413 --> 00:27:37,218
I don't mind being a maid.
Even if I were to go back to Tokyo, I'd...

335
00:27:39,510 --> 00:27:41,455
It doesn't bother me a bit, either.

336
00:27:41,735 --> 00:27:44,294
That can't be true.

337
00:27:45,321 --> 00:27:51,106
I bit off more than I could chew
with the business trip and all.

338
00:27:51,608 --> 00:27:53,722
I decided to take
a little break.

339
00:27:54,723 --> 00:27:56,723
I thought I could use some rest.

340
00:28:02,779 --> 00:28:05,379
I tell you, it's a relief to
come back to the place

341
00:28:05,380 --> 00:28:07,380
where you were born,
once in a while.

342
00:28:14,645 --> 00:28:18,373
Now in Tokyo, they have places
where the caf� is the whole building.

343
00:28:18,373 --> 00:28:21,958
Three or four story places.
They're huge.

344
00:28:21,959 --> 00:28:23,959
And they have what they
call "candle caf�s".

345
00:28:24,401 --> 00:28:26,999
The whole place is dark, and they
put in one candle in each room.

346
00:28:27,835 --> 00:28:33,007
Yes. And in one place, near a theatre,
they have something they call

347
00:28:33,007 --> 00:28:36,128
"swimsuit service", with girls
in swimsuits and...

348
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:37,607
Dear!

349
00:28:38,267 --> 00:28:41,148
We couldn't do anything like that.
We want to have a place that's wholesome,

350
00:28:41,148 --> 00:28:45,016
bright, and cheerful, one that anyone
would feel comfortable coming into.

351
00:28:45,928 --> 00:28:50,811
Well, of course, but that must cost
a lot of money.

352
00:28:54,808 --> 00:28:57,100
Yeah, it looks like it will cost
a million yen after everything.

353
00:28:57,382 --> 00:28:59,415
I think we can get 100,000 yen
out of it.

354
00:29:02,210 --> 00:29:04,176
Do you think you can
get that much money together?

355
00:29:04,743 --> 00:29:08,688
Well, we'll have to borrow some
of the money,

356
00:29:08,689 --> 00:29:10,689
but it will be alright.

357
00:29:11,864 --> 00:29:13,426
I see.

358
00:29:16,427 --> 00:29:19,427
I think it was a good idea to get
into the food business.

359
00:29:19,428 --> 00:29:21,428
I support your plan.

360
00:29:21,937 --> 00:29:22,937
But...

361
00:29:25,310 --> 00:29:31,145
Though of course, I also see
why mother might be against it.

362
00:29:32,145 --> 00:29:33,828
But don't let that
bother you, Shinji.

363
00:29:33,829 --> 00:29:35,829
That's just the way it is here:

364
00:29:35,828 --> 00:29:40,723
the older folks have to oppose
what the younger ones do.

365
00:29:41,723 --> 00:29:45,782
In fact, you could say that about
Japanese society as a whole.

366
00:29:46,405 --> 00:29:47,564
You're exaggerating again.

367
00:30:10,972 --> 00:30:14,127
- I'll fill that up, too.
- Don't worry.

368
00:30:14,127 --> 00:30:16,087
I just brought it back
to wash.

369
00:30:17,088 --> 00:30:19,088
There's no end to it otherwise.

370
00:30:19,187 --> 00:30:22,604
He just talks big,
he never says anything to me.

371
00:30:23,112 --> 00:30:25,151
Shinji doesn't drink, does he?

372
00:30:25,489 --> 00:30:28,193
Not really, but if a friend
invites him, he will.

373
00:30:29,194 --> 00:30:31,194
You can't avoid it in
this kind of town.

374
00:30:31,193 --> 00:30:34,439
That's true. You have to be
a part of everything.

375
00:30:35,274 --> 00:30:37,721
But you're lucky.

376
00:30:38,391 --> 00:30:40,456
Salarymen are
such disappointments.

377
00:30:42,028 --> 00:30:44,588
We still can't own
our own home.

378
00:30:45,589 --> 00:30:47,589
I guess that
Shin-san was a better choice.

379
00:30:49,769 --> 00:30:51,621
So do you want to
trade places?

380
00:30:52,056 --> 00:30:53,319
I didn't mean to say that!

381
00:30:55,665 --> 00:30:58,860
All we have is the house.
Nothing else.

382
00:30:58,861 --> 00:31:00,861
If we don't do something,
we'll be sunk.

383
00:31:01,625 --> 00:31:04,322
You don't have to worry.
You have all this.

384
00:31:38,055 --> 00:31:41,065
We've let the garden
go lately.

385
00:31:48,242 --> 00:31:50,126
This tree has got
a lot bigger.

386
00:31:51,127 --> 00:31:54,127
When I was in middle school,
it used to be about my height.

387
00:32:06,116 --> 00:32:07,827
What are you looking for?

388
00:32:09,295 --> 00:32:13,271
The nail clippers. I always put them
away in here.

389
00:32:17,089 --> 00:32:18,384
Kaoru!

390
00:32:19,542 --> 00:32:21,852
Do you know where the
nail clippers are?

391
00:32:22,648 --> 00:32:24,033
Nail clippers?

392
00:32:32,319 --> 00:32:33,006
Here you go.

393
00:32:34,561 --> 00:32:37,463
Why were they up there?
I was looking all over for them.

394
00:32:38,540 --> 00:32:42,611
They were lying around out here,
so I put them up there.

395
00:32:46,039 --> 00:32:47,131
I'm sorry.

396
00:32:53,898 --> 00:32:54,803
Here you are.

397
00:32:55,345 --> 00:32:58,547
- What took so long?
- They weren't in the usual place.

398
00:33:05,955 --> 00:33:08,217
How long are they going
to be here?

399
00:33:09,218 --> 00:33:11,218
It's been a week since
your brother got here.

400
00:33:13,109 --> 00:33:16,423
What do you suppose is going on
with his company?

401
00:33:16,988 --> 00:33:18,800
I have no idea.

402
00:33:19,984 --> 00:33:23,324
Kaoru asked to use a little of
my cold cream the other day,

403
00:33:23,325 --> 00:33:25,325
but I haven't seen it since.

404
00:33:27,388 --> 00:33:30,435
Those two make no bones about using
your things, either.

405
00:33:31,436 --> 00:33:33,436
Even Rumiko does the same.

406
00:33:35,137 --> 00:33:36,871
What would you think about
carrying on

407
00:33:36,872 --> 00:33:38,872
like you've been doing
at the Haruna?

408
00:33:38,967 --> 00:33:40,851
It's not something you can do
on the side.

409
00:33:40,852 --> 00:33:41,852
It's a full time job.

410
00:33:42,451 --> 00:33:45,369
You don't want to hire a cook
and want me to do all the cooking?

411
00:33:45,665 --> 00:33:47,427
I'd like to go every day, though.

412
00:33:49,069 --> 00:33:52,700
By the way, what should we give
to Kenkichi?

413
00:33:52,700 --> 00:33:54,150
What?

414
00:33:54,150 --> 00:33:56,416
I'm talking about a present in
return for helping us with the loan.

415
00:33:56,416 --> 00:33:57,707
Yes.

416
00:33:58,369 --> 00:34:00,133
- Well, what should we give him?
- Well...

417
00:34:03,351 --> 00:34:07,006
A bottle of sake or whiskey
would be easy, but he doesn't...

418
00:34:07,006 --> 00:34:08,327
He doesn't drink?

419
00:34:08,327 --> 00:34:10,054
No, he never did.

420
00:34:11,055 --> 00:34:13,055
And he has such a
pleasant personality.

421
00:34:16,330 --> 00:34:18,758
I guess something like
a tie would do.

422
00:34:18,759 --> 00:34:20,759
Or maybe a shirt
would be better.

423
00:34:21,788 --> 00:34:23,452
It doesn't make
any difference.

424
00:34:43,003 --> 00:34:44,050
Shin-chan,

425
00:34:46,005 --> 00:34:48,261
with this much space,
you could put up a great caf�.

426
00:34:48,931 --> 00:34:51,063
What? Yes.

427
00:34:52,968 --> 00:34:55,256
You should have
my wife help you.

428
00:34:55,257 --> 00:34:57,257
She used to work in a caf�.

429
00:34:57,894 --> 00:34:59,912
Never mind about that.

430
00:35:09,252 --> 00:35:11,741
Has Kuni been going to the
bicycle races lately?

431
00:35:12,413 --> 00:35:13,644
I don't let him go,

432
00:35:14,645 --> 00:35:17,645
and don't you go with him,
if he asks, either!

433
00:35:24,128 --> 00:35:25,912
The weather is really nice.

434
00:35:25,913 --> 00:35:27,913
I'd rather be doing this under
the cherry blossoms.

435
00:35:31,191 --> 00:35:32,410
Now is not the time.

436
00:35:33,825 --> 00:35:36,805
Is Kiyoko going to the Haruna
every day?

437
00:35:40,106 --> 00:35:41,902
It must be tough on your mother,
all alone like that.

438
00:35:42,915 --> 00:35:44,673
No, my brother's wife
is there.

439
00:35:45,245 --> 00:35:47,163
They're still here?

440
00:35:47,855 --> 00:35:50,741
Your brother is here, too.
I ran into him the other day.

441
00:35:50,968 --> 00:35:53,225
Yeah, he showed up
the other day.

442
00:35:53,225 --> 00:35:55,581
I thought he was here to take back his
wife and daughter to Tokyo,

443
00:35:55,581 --> 00:35:57,875
- but he's been here ever since.
- Really?

444
00:35:58,146 --> 00:36:00,720
- He's taking time off work?
- I don't know for sure.

445
00:36:01,388 --> 00:36:02,869
That is strange.

446
00:36:03,316 --> 00:36:05,309
- Excuse me, Madame.
- What is it?

447
00:36:06,097 --> 00:36:08,181
He might have got fired,
don't you think?

448
00:36:08,182 --> 00:36:09,182
That couldn't be.

449
00:36:11,526 --> 00:36:12,318
Good evening.

450
00:36:14,568 --> 00:36:16,324
Hey, come and pour this guy
a drink.

451
00:36:17,541 --> 00:36:19,290
I saw your wife at the Haruna,
the other day.

452
00:36:20,236 --> 00:36:22,335
- She's learning to cook?
- That's right.

453
00:36:22,943 --> 00:36:25,533
And we found out exactly
who Suzume likes.

454
00:36:25,533 --> 00:36:26,624
Don't be stupid!

455
00:36:27,817 --> 00:36:31,097
She's just jealous.

456
00:36:32,552 --> 00:36:34,100
So who is Suzume's guy?

457
00:36:35,101 --> 00:36:37,101
Takemura-san from
the Showa bank.

458
00:36:37,364 --> 00:36:38,314
Takemura?

459
00:36:40,026 --> 00:36:43,301
You know him, Shin-chan.
He was a year behind us in school.

460
00:36:44,810 --> 00:36:45,791
Oh, yeah.

461
00:36:46,243 --> 00:36:47,929
Does he come that often?

462
00:36:48,483 --> 00:36:50,354
No, just once in a while
for a party.

463
00:36:50,354 --> 00:36:54,013
And when he does, he hardly drinks at all.
He's very quiet.

464
00:36:54,272 --> 00:36:56,048
And on top of that,
he's good looking.

465
00:36:56,048 --> 00:36:59,557
He's still single, so there are hordes
of women after him. It must be tough.

466
00:36:59,773 --> 00:37:01,058
That's right.

467
00:37:01,643 --> 00:37:03,873
What are you doing
back here?

468
00:37:05,469 --> 00:37:07,026
Get out there.
Shin-chan,

469
00:37:07,027 --> 00:37:09,027
I think you
like these, don't you?

470
00:37:09,869 --> 00:37:11,197
These are good.

471
00:37:11,834 --> 00:37:13,425
Here, I'll pour you a drink.

472
00:37:25,724 --> 00:37:27,189
Do you have any children?

473
00:37:27,879 --> 00:37:30,453
This fellow here got adopted into
a family in Maebashi,

474
00:37:30,453 --> 00:37:33,261
right out of middle school.
He has five kids now.

475
00:37:33,261 --> 00:37:37,273
- That sounds tough.
- And all five of them are girls.

476
00:37:37,273 --> 00:37:40,877
- Are you looking for someone?
- Stop that!

477
00:37:40,877 --> 00:37:43,200
He thinks he's the only person
who was ever born an eldest son.

478
00:37:43,403 --> 00:37:47,257
- Are you saying he's still single?
- You're still single?

479
00:37:47,979 --> 00:37:50,741
You sure take your time
about things.

480
00:37:50,742 --> 00:37:52,742
Mother, help him find a bride?

481
00:37:52,861 --> 00:37:56,614
I won't let anyone who
visits me stay single.

482
00:38:00,535 --> 00:38:03,278
Once she heard that Tamura
was still single,

483
00:38:03,279 --> 00:38:05,279
Granny started talking about
women he could marry.

484
00:38:06,599 --> 00:38:08,548
Sorry to ask you to do this just
when you were about to go out.

485
00:38:08,906 --> 00:38:09,674
Don't worry.

486
00:38:10,757 --> 00:38:13,363
- Gimme one!
- Are your hands clean?

487
00:38:18,746 --> 00:38:20,143
May I have a moment
with you.

488
00:38:22,101 --> 00:38:23,376
I'll do it.

489
00:38:33,004 --> 00:38:34,403
Here's the estimate.

490
00:38:45,326 --> 00:38:49,376
This is really...
Isn't it really expensive?

491
00:38:49,376 --> 00:38:53,699
It's over our budget, yes,
but I asked for a bunch of things.

492
00:38:57,547 --> 00:38:59,882
I think you should send it
back to him at least once.

493
00:39:01,021 --> 00:39:01,722
Why?

494
00:39:02,641 --> 00:39:05,073
Tell him it has to be within
our budget.

495
00:39:05,073 --> 00:39:08,886
This happened because you weren't
careful about costs in the beginning.

496
00:39:09,646 --> 00:39:12,015
That's when you have to be
especially careful.

497
00:39:12,016 --> 00:39:14,016
Bargain with him until he gets it
within budget.

498
00:39:14,702 --> 00:39:17,422
He's supposed to do that.
That's why we're paying him money.

499
00:39:17,422 --> 00:39:18,401
I know.

500
00:39:19,616 --> 00:39:21,734
The money is really tight.

501
00:39:21,735 --> 00:39:23,735
I think
we're probably a little short now.

502
00:39:23,754 --> 00:39:25,721
The money is fine.
I'll do something.

503
00:39:26,635 --> 00:39:29,177
You say it's fine,
but I'm not so sure.

504
00:39:29,778 --> 00:39:32,778
In any case,
go over this carefully send it back.

505
00:39:33,964 --> 00:39:35,992
Shall we do it now?

506
00:39:35,993 --> 00:39:38,993
You do it. I'm no good with
detail stuff like that.

507
00:39:39,740 --> 00:39:45,148
I'm just telling you to get it
within our budget.

508
00:39:50,673 --> 00:39:52,436
I'll be back.

509
00:39:59,413 --> 00:40:01,921
If it's something you've decided
at the bottom of your heart,

510
00:40:01,922 --> 00:40:03,922
we'll do what we can for you.

511
00:40:04,337 --> 00:40:07,245
Thank you. It makes me feel
better to hear you say that.

512
00:40:07,245 --> 00:40:09,133
Whatever anyone says,
you're the oldest here.

513
00:40:10,848 --> 00:40:11,738
Yes.

514
00:40:14,101 --> 00:40:15,883
Let me introduce you.

515
00:40:15,884 --> 00:40:18,884
These are my co-workers
at the bank: Watanabe and Yasuda.

516
00:40:20,076 --> 00:40:21,413
This is Mrs. Tomita.

517
00:40:21,414 --> 00:40:24,414
She's the wife of the guy
who runs the Eiryudo. You might know of it.

518
00:40:25,413 --> 00:40:28,083
They're going to be opening
a caf� soon.

519
00:40:29,174 --> 00:40:30,577
When were you thinking
of opening?

520
00:40:31,216 --> 00:40:33,908
We'd like to start by the
middle of next month at least.

521
00:40:34,538 --> 00:40:38,063
Do what you can for her.
Their place will be on your way home.

522
00:40:41,346 --> 00:40:45,027
You're not going to
steal all our customers are you?

523
00:40:45,424 --> 00:40:48,498
Don't be so stingy!

524
00:40:50,999 --> 00:40:54,831
They have a loan from us.
It's quite a bit, isn't it?

525
00:40:54,831 --> 00:40:56,347
It's more than "quite a bit".

526
00:40:57,952 --> 00:40:58,955
Oh, no!

527
00:40:58,955 --> 00:41:01,527
You said the wrong thing
to the wrong person.

528
00:41:10,047 --> 00:41:12,693
He says that his company
has gone under.

529
00:41:13,694 --> 00:41:16,694
It's no good for you two,
if he just sits around here. Right?

530
00:41:17,410 --> 00:41:22,026
He asked me because he's afraid
to ask you two.

531
00:41:23,027 --> 00:41:26,027
Couldn't you talk to him?

532
00:41:27,878 --> 00:41:32,589
He says that he needs a little money
to get started.

533
00:41:34,029 --> 00:41:35,112
Money?

534
00:41:36,024 --> 00:41:38,517
Talk this over with Kiyoko.

535
00:41:50,701 --> 00:41:52,872
- Excuse me.
- Goodbye.

536
00:42:10,741 --> 00:42:12,312
Kiyoko is late isn't she?

537
00:42:13,642 --> 00:42:15,576
She'll be back soon.

538
00:42:16,794 --> 00:42:20,704
It must be hard going out
so much like that.

539
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,543
I should think so.

540
00:42:33,319 --> 00:42:34,817
Welcome home.

541
00:42:36,866 --> 00:42:38,171
Hello everyone.

542
00:42:38,795 --> 00:42:41,502
We were waiting for you.
We just started eating.

543
00:42:42,649 --> 00:42:43,942
Sorry I'm so late.

544
00:42:44,671 --> 00:42:46,750
It must be tiring doing something
you're not used to.

545
00:42:47,442 --> 00:42:50,812
Just a little. I was in the house
day in and day out before this.

546
00:42:54,729 --> 00:42:57,867
I'm sure that if Kiyoko runs
the caf� it'll be a success.

547
00:43:03,164 --> 00:43:04,943
- Are you done already?
- Yes.

548
00:43:17,053 --> 00:43:19,078
It's gotten pretty warm.

549
00:43:21,180 --> 00:43:24,764
Well, it is April after all.
Do you want more rice?

550
00:43:28,178 --> 00:43:30,132
Just a little will do.

551
00:43:38,135 --> 00:43:40,176
My brother asked me to
lend him some money.

552
00:43:41,345 --> 00:43:43,766
Money? How much?

553
00:43:44,604 --> 00:43:46,991
300,000 yen.

554
00:43:47,608 --> 00:43:50,197
That much?

555
00:43:50,978 --> 00:43:54,019
He couldn't ask me himself,
so he had mother do it.

556
00:43:55,751 --> 00:43:57,530
He's been like that since he was small.

557
00:43:58,607 --> 00:44:01,722
What is he going to do
with 300,000 yen?

558
00:44:02,682 --> 00:44:04,453
He was saying to
his friends that

559
00:44:04,454 --> 00:44:06,454
he wants to open
a little place like ours.

560
00:44:06,473 --> 00:44:07,892
What about his job in Tokyo?

561
00:44:07,892 --> 00:44:09,842
It looks like the company
went under.

562
00:44:12,011 --> 00:44:14,551
Did you agree to lend him
the money?

563
00:44:15,551 --> 00:44:19,322
- I'm not going to say yes to him.
- I see.

564
00:44:23,775 --> 00:44:27,380
If we do what he says, we won't
be able to open the caf�.

565
00:44:28,051 --> 00:44:31,842
That's right, and we've been
working hard for it.

566
00:44:34,283 --> 00:44:38,682
But my mother will
keep asking.

567
00:44:40,683 --> 00:44:44,683
She's always
been against the idea of opening a caf�.

568
00:44:46,199 --> 00:44:49,771
Why now? What a headache!

569
00:45:07,007 --> 00:45:10,602
Yesterday when I got back,
things seemed strange.

570
00:45:12,603 --> 00:45:16,603
And this morning,
they were all looking at me.

571
00:45:16,602 --> 00:45:21,395
It's really creepy. It's a torture chamber.
["hari no mushiro" lit., 'pin cushion']

572
00:45:21,395 --> 00:45:25,233
I couldn't eat all day.

573
00:45:25,975 --> 00:45:27,764
So they think that
if you say yes,

574
00:45:27,765 --> 00:45:30,765
Shinji will hand over
the money?

575
00:45:31,764 --> 00:45:33,108
That's right.

576
00:45:34,615 --> 00:45:38,532
What are you going to do?
You were working so hard for that.

577
00:45:39,874 --> 00:45:41,606
We were.

578
00:46:02,904 --> 00:46:07,882
I can't make you do anything
against your will,

579
00:46:08,883 --> 00:46:13,883
but your brother seems
to really need this.

580
00:46:15,312 --> 00:46:17,267
It's ridiculous to think that
a salaryman in Tokyo

581
00:46:17,267 --> 00:46:20,195
can suddenly succeed
in the restaurant business.

582
00:46:20,195 --> 00:46:21,880
It has no chance of
working out for him.

583
00:46:22,426 --> 00:46:25,284
And to think that
a tiny little place will succeed,

584
00:46:25,285 --> 00:46:27,285
in the same town...
that's absurd.

585
00:46:28,220 --> 00:46:30,351
It'll be on the
other side of the town,

586
00:46:30,352 --> 00:46:32,352
on the other side
of the tracks.

587
00:46:32,912 --> 00:46:35,549
There's no way you can run a
successful restaurant over there.

588
00:46:36,429 --> 00:46:41,905
No, there are lots of new
houses going up, apartments even.

589
00:46:42,356 --> 00:46:45,227
Everyone over there does their
shopping around the station.

590
00:46:45,227 --> 00:46:47,785
If you put a place up there,
it can't miss.

591
00:46:48,116 --> 00:46:49,251
It's not that easy.

592
00:46:50,903 --> 00:46:54,744
Shinji, this is a once in
a lifetime request.

593
00:46:54,744 --> 00:46:58,556
I've worked hard since
getting out of school,

594
00:46:59,557 --> 00:47:01,557
but I have nothing
to show for it.

595
00:47:03,324 --> 00:47:08,097
That's why I came back with
my wife and daughter,

596
00:47:09,098 --> 00:47:11,098
to the home I left.

597
00:47:12,098 --> 00:47:14,098
I can do this now.

598
00:47:18,835 --> 00:47:20,735
Shinji, please.

599
00:47:20,736 --> 00:47:23,736
Usually he couldn't ask
for something like this without drinking,

600
00:47:23,736 --> 00:47:26,198
but this is important enough
for him that he's asking sober.

601
00:47:26,945 --> 00:47:30,662
Shinji, I also want you
to do this.

602
00:47:31,732 --> 00:47:34,040
Well, then, Zenichi
should live here.

603
00:47:36,867 --> 00:47:38,064
We'll leave.

604
00:47:38,718 --> 00:47:39,717
Shinji!

605
00:47:40,583 --> 00:47:42,644
I didn't want to run this place,

606
00:47:42,645 --> 00:47:44,645
but I've been doing it
ever since he left.

607
00:48:08,315 --> 00:48:09,287
It's my brother.

608
00:48:10,296 --> 00:48:12,282
Is it that time already?

609
00:48:13,428 --> 00:48:15,144
Welcome home. Kiyoko is here.

610
00:48:19,725 --> 00:48:21,569
I should be going?

611
00:48:22,116 --> 00:48:25,907
My brother is here. Stay and have something to eat.

612
00:48:26,563 --> 00:48:27,347
But...

613
00:48:29,143 --> 00:48:33,073
Why not? Why go back
to that dungeon?

614
00:48:33,514 --> 00:48:34,808
Dungeon?

615
00:48:37,084 --> 00:48:39,376
What's wrong?
You looked so cheerful yesterday.

616
00:48:41,391 --> 00:48:45,479
I'll just go out and get something good.
You can cook us up something good.

617
00:48:46,438 --> 00:48:51,637
- Maybe I will.
- Yes, please do. Well, I'll be going.

618
00:48:52,186 --> 00:48:53,691
Wait! I'll go with you.

619
00:48:54,253 --> 00:48:55,578
Get something good!

620
00:48:56,172 --> 00:48:59,607
Let's go.
What should we get?

621
00:49:02,006 --> 00:49:02,895
What's wrong?

622
00:49:03,097 --> 00:49:06,437
- Maybe I should go home.
- You're difficult.

623
00:49:06,437 --> 00:49:09,186
You can get back late once
in a while. What's wrong with that?

624
00:49:09,809 --> 00:49:10,965
Come on. Let's go.

625
00:49:14,293 --> 00:49:16,115
Are you going home?

626
00:49:16,115 --> 00:49:18,218
We were going to give you a feast.

627
00:49:19,219 --> 00:49:21,219
Yumiko's cooking doesn't really
qualify as cooking.

628
00:49:21,700 --> 00:49:25,819
You can complain when you start
bringing in more money. Let's go.

629
00:49:26,132 --> 00:49:26,989
Bye.

630
00:49:27,772 --> 00:49:29,140
Are you really leaving?

631
00:49:29,656 --> 00:49:33,166
No, because I won't let her.
Get yourself good and hungry.

632
00:49:33,556 --> 00:49:35,225
I don't get any hungrier
than this!

633
00:49:43,064 --> 00:49:44,374
Thank you.

634
00:50:18,984 --> 00:50:20,220
Where were you?

635
00:50:20,965 --> 00:50:22,618
At Yumiko's?

636
00:50:24,327 --> 00:50:26,153
- Where are you going?
- Out for a bit.

637
00:50:41,568 --> 00:50:42,596
Welcome back.

638
00:50:45,928 --> 00:50:47,207
Welcome home.

639
00:50:51,693 --> 00:50:52,648
Sorry I'm late.

640
00:50:52,648 --> 00:50:54,027
Welcome home.

641
00:51:09,354 --> 00:51:12,272
Kiyoko leaves me all alone
in that place.

642
00:51:12,602 --> 00:51:15,551
I'm sure she doesn't want
to be there either.

643
00:51:22,015 --> 00:51:24,710
- Good evening!
- Come in!

644
00:51:29,536 --> 00:51:34,248
Have a drink. Sorry.

645
00:51:38,809 --> 00:51:40,086
Here you are.

646
00:51:44,501 --> 00:51:46,326
- It's too hot!
- Sorry.

647
00:51:47,314 --> 00:51:48,825
What a scary face!

648
00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:50,276
What?

649
00:51:50,550 --> 00:51:53,341
There's something wrong with him,
isn't there?

650
00:51:53,342 --> 00:51:54,342
He's all stirred up.

651
00:51:54,716 --> 00:51:57,524
- Yes, he's really agitated.
- He's like an out of season typhoon.

652
00:51:57,524 --> 00:51:58,962
And no ones like those.

653
00:51:59,963 --> 00:52:01,963
Let's go drinking under
the cherry trees.

654
00:52:01,962 --> 00:52:05,589
Yes, let's! But I suppose that
typhoon has blown all the petals off the trees.

655
00:52:08,725 --> 00:52:10,459
We're too late for everything
these days.

656
00:52:12,672 --> 00:52:13,922
Cut it out with that laugh,
will you?

657
00:52:15,014 --> 00:52:17,319
I'm sorry I have
a funny laugh,

658
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:20,320
but at least let me laugh
when things are funny.

659
00:52:20,977 --> 00:52:22,427
What's so funny?

660
00:52:22,943 --> 00:52:27,831
These days everything is funny.
So funny!

661
00:52:32,490 --> 00:52:34,331
What? Now you're crying?

662
00:52:38,064 --> 00:52:40,227
I see you're in a good mood
for a neurotic.

663
00:52:41,597 --> 00:52:42,738
She's a real pain.

664
00:52:46,098 --> 00:52:47,312
Sorry.

665
00:52:50,205 --> 00:52:51,694
Let me have a little drink.

666
00:52:51,694 --> 00:52:52,973
A little what?

667
00:52:53,451 --> 00:52:55,784
But I'm really suffering.

668
00:52:57,179 --> 00:52:59,613
- You laugh when you're down?
- That's right.

669
00:52:59,613 --> 00:53:04,589
Geishas laugh when they're
sad and cry when they're happy.

670
00:53:04,589 --> 00:53:06,051
Is that so?

671
00:53:44,187 --> 00:53:45,345
Just a minute.

672
00:53:47,950 --> 00:53:50,369
It's not fair, going out by yourself.
Don't leave me all alone with them?

673
00:53:50,711 --> 00:53:54,038
I'll be back soon.
Just ignore them.

674
00:54:07,396 --> 00:54:09,330
Rumiko, come here.

675
00:54:10,298 --> 00:54:11,722
What is it?

676
00:54:20,110 --> 00:54:22,653
Kiyoko, come here for a bit.

677
00:54:28,950 --> 00:54:30,696
Dear, would you take care
of Rumiko for a bit?

678
00:54:30,997 --> 00:54:32,997
Go and play with
your father, now.

679
00:54:38,139 --> 00:54:42,231
I felt terrible when Shinji
and Zenichi

680
00:54:42,332 --> 00:54:48,332
were fighting about money,
right in front of me.

681
00:54:51,758 --> 00:54:54,887
I understand how Shinji feels.
He's right.

682
00:54:56,888 --> 00:55:01,888
If you consider that Zenichi left home,
Shinji is absolutely right.

683
00:55:03,045 --> 00:55:05,522
But when I see him
come back here,

684
00:55:05,523 --> 00:55:08,523
bow his head in front of his
younger brother,

685
00:55:08,524 --> 00:55:11,524
asking to be allowed
to come back home,

686
00:55:12,526 --> 00:55:17,308
it makes me feel that we ought
to do something for him.

687
00:55:17,756 --> 00:55:21,747
Yes, as a mother, I suppose...

688
00:55:22,386 --> 00:55:29,248
If Shinji agrees, Zenichi promises
that it will be just this once.

689
00:55:32,165 --> 00:55:34,645
Shinji talks tough,

690
00:55:34,646 --> 00:55:38,646
but I know that deep
down in his heart,

691
00:55:39,646 --> 00:55:44,646
he's thinking of his brother.

692
00:55:47,538 --> 00:55:49,813
And I'm asking you because
I know

693
00:55:50,814 --> 00:55:53,814
that if you talk to Shinji,
he'll agree to it.

694
00:55:59,651 --> 00:56:02,494
Well, as long as the members of the
family have agreed on the decision,

695
00:56:03,442 --> 00:56:04,616
I won't interfere with it.

696
00:56:05,785 --> 00:56:07,468
So you agree to lend him the money?

697
00:56:11,119 --> 00:56:14,506
It's the phone. It's from the
Akagiya's mistress.

698
00:56:29,058 --> 00:56:33,328
Hello. Yes, it's me.
Sorry to have been out of touch.

699
00:56:33,328 --> 00:56:36,681
He went out. I guess they went
somewhere together.

700
00:56:41,223 --> 00:56:45,155
He's with your husband.
He said he was going to Maebashi.

701
00:56:45,942 --> 00:56:50,071
I see. I guess he invited him out
to the bicycle races.

702
00:56:51,072 --> 00:56:53,072
I'm glad that he's with
Shinji, though.

703
00:56:55,071 --> 00:56:56,807
Yes, that's right.

704
00:56:57,808 --> 00:57:00,808
His older brother and his family
are still there?

705
00:57:00,809 --> 00:57:01,809
That must be difficult!

706
00:57:02,619 --> 00:57:07,232
What? No, not at all.

707
00:57:07,232 --> 00:57:10,552
Yes. Sorry.

708
00:57:26,796 --> 00:57:28,430
Good night.

709
00:57:42,941 --> 00:57:44,705
Shinji sure is late tonight.

710
00:57:44,705 --> 00:57:47,586
What about you?
Is it OK for you to be out so late?

711
00:57:47,586 --> 00:57:52,533
Yes, it is because when I left,
I said that I might not come home tonight.

712
00:57:52,533 --> 00:57:56,731
What are we going to do with you?
Did something happen?

713
00:57:57,937 --> 00:57:59,227
No, not really.

714
00:58:06,806 --> 00:58:11,810
You're proud to say that you've arranged
the marriages of thirty couples.

715
00:58:11,811 --> 00:58:13,811
Are those couples really happy?

716
00:58:16,012 --> 00:58:18,433
Of course they are!

717
00:58:19,434 --> 00:58:23,434
Of all those couples, only one
or two couples have split up.

718
00:58:25,723 --> 00:58:26,986
But just because they
haven't split up,

719
00:58:26,987 --> 00:58:28,987
doesn't mean that
they're happy.

720
00:58:29,921 --> 00:58:34,013
Women don't have the courage.
They just give up.

721
00:58:36,073 --> 00:58:40,131
But I'm not like that. If I can't put
up with him, I'll come back here.

722
00:58:40,397 --> 00:58:44,998
Be reasonable. Are you sure
nothing has happened?

723
00:58:46,467 --> 00:58:49,204
What are you talking about?
You haven't been married even a month!

724
00:58:50,086 --> 00:58:53,657
If something had happened,
I'd tell you.

725
00:59:16,689 --> 00:59:17,749
I'm home!

726
00:59:19,152 --> 00:59:20,447
You're husband is back.

727
00:59:21,322 --> 00:59:22,772
Really?

728
00:59:25,945 --> 00:59:27,474
Welcome back.

729
00:59:36,537 --> 00:59:38,566
- Welcome home.
- May I have a moment with you?

730
00:59:45,466 --> 00:59:49,042
Sumiko spent the night here last
night so I took her back to her place.

731
00:59:49,042 --> 00:59:50,915
Did you lend the money
to my brother?

732
00:59:52,537 --> 00:59:54,202
I heard that you agreed
to lend them the money.

733
00:59:54,981 --> 00:59:58,223
Of course not! I couldn't agree
to that without talking to you first.

734
00:59:58,446 --> 01:00:00,705
I said that I'd talk to you
when you came back,

735
01:00:00,705 --> 01:00:02,998
and that if you agreed to it,
I wouldn't oppose the family's decision.

736
01:00:03,638 --> 01:00:09,211
That makes it look like I'm the only
one opposed to the deal. Don't you care?

737
01:00:10,054 --> 01:00:15,464
Of course I do. I don't want to lend
them the money an more than you do.

738
01:00:15,464 --> 01:00:18,209
But you were gone and your
mother called me on the carpet.

739
01:00:18,209 --> 01:00:23,528
Do you think it was possible
for me to say no?

740
01:00:27,100 --> 01:00:30,458
You're a man; if you don't want
to lend him the money,

741
01:00:30,459 --> 01:00:34,459
then you should say so!
You're my husband.

742
01:00:34,458 --> 01:00:35,706
But even if I say so...

743
01:00:37,034 --> 01:00:39,529
Where did you stay last night?

744
01:00:40,151 --> 01:00:42,521
I went to Maebashi with Kuni-chan
to play mahjong.

745
01:00:47,998 --> 01:00:49,776
Well, what can we do now?

746
01:00:51,251 --> 01:00:53,650
Maybe we should just forget
about the caf�.

747
01:00:55,055 --> 01:00:56,713
That talk again?

748
01:00:58,688 --> 01:01:01,481
We can just open it
a little later,

749
01:01:02,482 --> 01:01:05,482
and I think we'll have to make it
a little smaller.

750
01:01:06,426 --> 01:01:10,303
I'll talk to Takemura about
the money again.

751
01:01:11,131 --> 01:01:13,517
- To Kenkichi?
- Yes.

752
01:01:15,140 --> 01:01:17,027
There's a call from Kunio-san.

753
01:01:25,393 --> 01:01:36,775
Yes, it's me. What?
Well, I'll be over. Yes. See you.

754
01:01:37,883 --> 01:01:39,849
You're going out again?

755
01:01:39,850 --> 01:01:41,850
Yes, he just asked me to come over
for a little bit.

756
01:02:00,221 --> 01:02:02,016
Fuku hasn't come home yet.

757
01:02:02,973 --> 01:02:06,210
But she came back with us
and Koharu, didn't she?

758
01:02:07,190 --> 01:02:09,529
But she disappeared somewhere
on the train.

759
01:02:12,237 --> 01:02:14,158
That's strange.

760
01:02:30,072 --> 01:02:32,771
When did Zenichi go out?

761
01:02:33,529 --> 01:02:34,834
Sometime after two.

762
01:02:35,835 --> 01:02:39,835
He said he was going to
see the friend that was here the other day.

763
01:02:47,839 --> 01:02:49,444
Wait.

764
01:02:51,033 --> 01:02:52,751
Leave it open.
Your brother is still out.

765
01:02:57,901 --> 01:02:59,112
You were gone pretty long
for saying that

766
01:02:59,113 --> 01:03:01,113
you were just stepping out
for a little bit.

767
01:03:02,264 --> 01:03:03,555
Yes.

768
01:03:05,875 --> 01:03:08,011
- Welcome home.
- Hello.

769
01:03:16,243 --> 01:03:17,754
No phone calls or anything?

770
01:03:18,220 --> 01:03:19,485
No.

771
01:03:20,271 --> 01:03:21,892
That's strange.

772
01:03:30,284 --> 01:03:32,962
What do you suppose has
happened to your brother?

773
01:03:33,415 --> 01:03:34,447
I don't know.

774
01:03:35,142 --> 01:03:38,357
How much money did you
give him yesterday?

775
01:03:39,829 --> 01:03:41,650
Money?
Of the 300,000 yen,

776
01:03:41,651 --> 01:03:43,651
I only gave him
200.000, yesterday.

777
01:03:46,797 --> 01:03:49,381
I wonder what's happened?

778
01:03:56,535 --> 01:03:57,748
Hello!

779
01:03:58,748 --> 01:04:00,497
That looks like hard work.

780
01:04:00,953 --> 01:04:02,742
Now you know what she
makes me do on Sundays.

781
01:04:02,742 --> 01:04:04,276
Meanwhile, she herself has
gone out somewhere.

782
01:04:04,911 --> 01:04:07,363
Yumiko is out?

783
01:04:08,184 --> 01:04:09,989
She'll be back soon enough.
Come in.

784
01:04:16,315 --> 01:04:19,248
I brought some friends to
the Haruna the other day.

785
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:26,165
There were a lot of arguments
at my place yesterday.

786
01:04:27,476 --> 01:04:28,835
It must be rough.

787
01:04:31,652 --> 01:04:38,216
And today, I came to ask
your advice again.

788
01:04:39,073 --> 01:04:40,170
What could it be?

789
01:04:42,505 --> 01:04:45,977
This is quite shameless of me...

790
01:04:48,816 --> 01:04:50,970
...but it's money again.

791
01:04:51,905 --> 01:04:53,356
What? That's all?

792
01:04:54,976 --> 01:04:56,147
Well, come in.

793
01:04:57,475 --> 01:04:58,877
You're here.

794
01:05:01,348 --> 01:05:04,073
- It sure is warm. I'm sweating.
- Where did you go?

795
01:05:05,732 --> 01:05:07,053
Take a look at these.
What do you think?

796
01:05:07,381 --> 01:05:10,423
- They're nice.
- 200 yen.

797
01:05:13,687 --> 01:05:15,166
Hey, put some tea on.

798
01:05:30,995 --> 01:05:34,479
- What's up?
- Nothing. It seems strange.

799
01:05:38,130 --> 01:05:42,876
You know, they say that the people
that talk about dying never do.

800
01:05:43,945 --> 01:05:46,255
Did she say anything
to you about it?

801
01:05:46,256 --> 01:05:48,256
No, not really.

802
01:05:54,159 --> 01:05:54,814
Hello.

803
01:05:55,825 --> 01:05:57,381
You just had a call from the Mrs.
at the Akagiya.

804
01:05:57,382 --> 01:05:59,382
She'd like you to come over
right away.

805
01:06:00,223 --> 01:06:02,177
From Sadako? Me?

806
01:06:03,768 --> 01:06:04,769
I wonder what it could be.

807
01:06:06,566 --> 01:06:10,464
- That's true. Bring in Satsuki.
- Yes, come.

808
01:06:13,854 --> 01:06:15,793
I'll take it.

809
01:06:21,379 --> 01:06:23,337
He called your place yesterday,
didn't he?

810
01:06:23,338 --> 01:06:25,338
I thought he would be safe
with Shin-chan,

811
01:06:25,632 --> 01:06:28,866
but I was completely wrong about that.
They weren't alone.

812
01:06:31,922 --> 01:06:33,142
A couple of young geishas!

813
01:06:34,331 --> 01:06:35,174
Oh my!

814
01:06:36,270 --> 01:06:38,233
He should have told me
right away,

815
01:06:38,234 --> 01:06:40,234
but she was something of
a favourite of his,

816
01:06:40,236 --> 01:06:42,221
so he must have been
embarassed about it.

817
01:06:43,133 --> 01:06:45,191
And then it seems that
on the train home,

818
01:06:45,192 --> 01:06:47,192
the girl with Shin-chan
disappeared.

819
01:06:48,423 --> 01:06:49,842
Disappeared?

820
01:06:50,816 --> 01:06:53,471
It seems she got off at a station
along the way.

821
01:06:54,452 --> 01:06:56,928
But she hasn't been heard
from since.

822
01:06:56,929 --> 01:06:58,929
No one knows where she went.

823
01:06:59,865 --> 01:07:02,375
The two of them have been all hot
and bothered about that since last night.

824
01:07:03,124 --> 01:07:04,574
She was one of his favourites,

825
01:07:04,575 --> 01:07:06,575
but the girl who was with Shin-chan
was a bad one, too.

826
01:07:09,246 --> 01:07:10,894
She was always having trouble
with her husband,

827
01:07:10,895 --> 01:07:13,895
but she could never
bring herself to leave him.

828
01:07:29,722 --> 01:07:31,686
- Welcome back.
- Hi.

829
01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:37,914
Kiyoko is in the bath.

830
01:07:50,211 --> 01:07:53,608
- Your brother still hasn't come back.
- Not yet?

831
01:07:55,551 --> 01:08:00,453
- Should we just wait?
- What else can we do?

832
01:08:47,077 --> 01:08:48,398
Here's the estimate.

833
01:08:54,532 --> 01:08:55,905
You're terrible.

834
01:09:02,339 --> 01:09:05,239
You go places and make up
stories about it. Where were you?

835
01:09:10,908 --> 01:09:14,809
Today I went to the Akagiya
and Sadako told me everything.

836
01:09:18,251 --> 01:09:26,859
While we were so worried about
the money, you slip out and escape.

837
01:09:28,011 --> 01:09:30,481
You're not the only one
suffering here.

838
01:09:32,577 --> 01:09:35,742
If that were all that's wrong,
everything would be fine,

839
01:09:36,039 --> 01:09:40,221
but I know that you went to a hot
spring resort with some geisha to relax.

840
01:09:41,280 --> 01:09:43,294
Men are really unfair!

841
01:09:45,071 --> 01:09:49,419
What are women supposed to do
when men do things like that?

842
01:09:50,420 --> 01:09:52,420
Just suffer through everything?

843
01:09:53,302 --> 01:09:55,241
Of course not, but why are
you talking about this?

844
01:09:56,369 --> 01:09:57,271
Why?

845
01:09:58,272 --> 01:10:01,272
I guess you do think women should just
shut up and suffer.

846
01:10:01,273 --> 01:10:02,938
I'm certain of it.

847
01:10:06,872 --> 01:10:09,367
You might not be capable of
doing something really terrible,

848
01:10:09,367 --> 01:10:11,647
but all the same, I can't put up
with you hanging around with geisha.

849
01:10:12,741 --> 01:10:14,240
I don't like it!

850
01:10:15,174 --> 01:10:18,201
I know. I was wrong.

851
01:10:19,331 --> 01:10:23,590
You're too late. You should
have said something before, and...

852
01:10:24,572 --> 01:10:26,877
You just never let up,
do you?

853
01:10:26,878 --> 01:10:28,878
What do you want me to do?

854
01:10:29,938 --> 01:10:34,203
Don't ask me.
I don't know.

855
01:10:57,995 --> 01:10:59,721
Thank you very much.

856
01:11:07,586 --> 01:11:09,761
- Come in.
- Hello there.

857
01:11:12,014 --> 01:11:14,655
Takemura-san, Kiyoko is
going to come in every day.

858
01:11:14,655 --> 01:11:16,481
I want you to bring in lots
of customers for her.

859
01:11:17,151 --> 01:11:19,534
Why? What happened?

860
01:11:20,111 --> 01:11:24,463
I think I was slacking off a bit
before, so I want to make up for it.

861
01:11:27,348 --> 01:11:29,387
I thought that if I was going
to learn how,

862
01:11:29,388 --> 01:11:30,388
I might give it my all.

863
01:11:30,389 --> 01:11:32,589
I want the things that I've learned
to stay with me.

864
01:11:34,079 --> 01:11:35,316
That's quite the spirit.

865
01:11:36,139 --> 01:11:38,524
She has a good feel for
this business.

866
01:11:38,525 --> 01:11:40,525
She'll be able to do it
all by herself pretty soon.

867
01:11:42,752 --> 01:11:43,927
So what will it be today?

868
01:11:44,890 --> 01:11:46,201
Yes, what shall I have...

869
01:11:56,746 --> 01:11:58,603
You really are full of
energy today.

870
01:11:58,603 --> 01:11:59,648
Do I seem that way?

871
01:11:59,648 --> 01:12:00,601
Yes.

872
01:12:00,601 --> 01:12:04,025
But you know things haven't
been going so well at all.

873
01:12:04,383 --> 01:12:06,176
I thought that might be the case.
On the other hand,

874
01:12:06,176 --> 01:12:09,063
I also thought that perhaps you were cheerful
because you had got over something.

875
01:12:09,063 --> 01:12:12,324
No. Things just get
worse and worse.

876
01:12:14,684 --> 01:12:16,533
All the same, last night
I thought things over

877
01:12:16,534 --> 01:12:18,534
and decided to be as cheerful
as possible,

878
01:12:18,533 --> 01:12:21,373
even if it's a strain, and I decided
to go to the Haruna every day.

879
01:12:24,932 --> 01:12:26,983
If you learn how to do
something practical,

880
01:12:26,984 --> 01:12:28,984
you have something
to fall back on.

881
01:13:12,829 --> 01:13:16,078
- Come over here.
Granny's legs might be hurting.
- No!

882
01:13:16,604 --> 01:13:19,521
I'm afraid it is time for you
to go to bed.

883
01:13:20,764 --> 01:13:24,003
Your father might come back
when you're asleep.

884
01:13:25,204 --> 01:13:28,204
- With a present for me?
- That's right.

885
01:13:31,450 --> 01:13:32,495
Goodnight.

886
01:13:35,595 --> 01:13:38,668
- Say goodnight to your granny, too.
- Goodnight.

887
01:13:47,746 --> 01:13:54,111
Zenichi sure stirred up a lot of
trouble running off with all that cash.

888
01:13:56,477 --> 01:13:59,754
But he's only been gone since
the day before yesterday.

889
01:14:00,784 --> 01:14:05,519
I don't think he's got over
his grudges yet.

890
01:14:06,520 --> 01:14:10,520
I'm sorry I asked you to give him
all that money.

891
01:14:11,249 --> 01:14:12,652
Never mind about the money.

892
01:14:13,420 --> 01:14:17,404
Shinji hasn't said a word
about it to me.

893
01:14:18,405 --> 01:14:21,405
I think he must be keeping
his feelings to himself.

894
01:14:28,015 --> 01:14:30,136
Mother, the bath is ready.

895
01:14:30,884 --> 01:14:34,503
Is it? Well, I guess
I'll get in.

896
01:14:35,093 --> 01:14:37,569
Goodnight.

897
01:15:11,146 --> 01:15:12,054
There you are.

898
01:15:17,434 --> 01:15:20,499
- Was it good?
- Yes it was a very good movie.

899
01:15:21,114 --> 01:15:24,760
I wanted to see it. You should
have invited me to come with you.

900
01:15:25,684 --> 01:15:26,507
I should have.

901
01:15:27,041 --> 01:15:28,847
My brother said that wanted to see it.

902
01:15:29,289 --> 01:15:30,849
Why don't you go with him
on his way home from work?

903
01:15:31,660 --> 01:15:32,972
I suppose I could.

904
01:15:36,295 --> 01:15:37,293
Here you go.

905
01:15:38,120 --> 01:15:39,151
Kiyoko-san.

906
01:15:41,881 --> 01:15:44,033
You're in the way.
Would you please stand over there?

907
01:15:45,766 --> 01:15:50,089
Kiyoko is late, isn't she?
She goes out everyday these days.

908
01:15:50,089 --> 01:15:54,001
- It must be rough on you.
- No, not really.

909
01:15:54,497 --> 01:15:57,759
Come over here and play
with me, Rumi-chan. Come on.

910
01:16:03,751 --> 01:16:06,907
I see.

911
01:16:09,319 --> 01:16:10,526
What should we do?

912
01:16:12,917 --> 01:16:13,694
I'm home.

913
01:16:14,515 --> 01:16:15,545
You're late.

914
01:16:17,874 --> 01:16:19,538
I went to a movie.

915
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:32,102
You were with Kiyoko,
weren't you?

916
01:16:33,103 --> 01:16:34,103
- Did you eat?
- Yes.

917
01:16:34,104 --> 01:16:35,850
I'll put some tea on, then.

918
01:16:40,548 --> 01:16:41,898
- It was good wasn't it?
- Yes.

919
01:16:41,898 --> 01:16:43,495
What did Kiyoko say?

920
01:16:45,155 --> 01:16:48,851
- Things must be pretty difficult over there.
- That's right.

921
01:16:48,851 --> 01:16:51,636
Her brother in law is sill there
from Tokyo, isn't he?

922
01:16:51,637 --> 01:16:53,637
I don't think that's the only thing.

923
01:16:53,811 --> 01:16:54,594
Why? What's wrong?

924
01:16:55,137 --> 01:16:57,196
I don't think she's getting along
with Shinji.

925
01:16:58,155 --> 01:17:00,788
Do you think so?
Did she say something to you?

926
01:17:03,611 --> 01:17:05,775
No, nothing specific.

927
01:17:06,774 --> 01:17:07,979
They had a big wedding,

928
01:17:07,980 --> 01:17:10,980
but they didn't particularly like each other
when they got married.

929
01:17:13,834 --> 01:17:16,963
But Kiyoko is a good person.
She'll manage somehow.

930
01:17:21,302 --> 01:17:23,340
How long has she been married?

931
01:17:23,621 --> 01:17:25,649
I think it's been five years.

932
01:17:27,226 --> 01:17:28,864
She hasn't changed at all.

933
01:17:38,023 --> 01:17:39,286
My button came off.

934
01:17:40,878 --> 01:17:43,531
Just put it over there and I'll get to
it some time. I'll get you another one out.

935
01:17:44,590 --> 01:17:46,338
You don't have to wash it.

936
01:17:47,164 --> 01:17:50,378
That's OK.
Just put it aside.

937
01:18:14,608 --> 01:18:16,824
Thank you. Goodbye.

938
01:18:17,136 --> 01:18:18,742
Take care.

939
01:18:20,654 --> 01:18:22,058
You say they found Fuku?

940
01:18:22,058 --> 01:18:25,568
Yes, but just come in.

941
01:18:28,646 --> 01:18:32,261
They found her, alright. She drank some poison.

942
01:18:32,261 --> 01:18:33,931
- Poison?
- Yes.

943
01:18:34,671 --> 01:18:43,860
We found out this morning.
I talked things over with Sadako.

944
01:18:48,122 --> 01:18:50,301
We didn't want you to get
mixed up in all this,

945
01:18:50,302 --> 01:18:52,302
but someone filed a report
with the authorities.

946
01:18:54,484 --> 01:18:59,987
It doesn't seem to me mention you.
Nor should it have...

947
01:18:59,987 --> 01:19:02,655
we just happened to be with
her just before it happened.

948
01:19:03,897 --> 01:19:07,281
That's all. It seems she wasn't
getting along with her husband.

949
01:19:08,171 --> 01:19:11,910
She was always talking
about it

950
01:19:12,911 --> 01:19:15,911
and saying that she was
going to die.

951
01:19:16,612 --> 01:19:18,275
So you don't need to worry
about this.

952
01:19:19,276 --> 01:19:21,276
You don't have anything to do
with it. Forget it.

953
01:19:22,226 --> 01:19:24,832
You don't even need to tell
Kiyoko about it.

954
01:19:25,393 --> 01:19:28,015
- But it will show up in the papers!
- Will it?

955
01:19:28,744 --> 01:19:32,285
If it does you can ignore it.
Or just pretend you don't care.

956
01:19:32,909 --> 01:19:36,886
You sure caused him a lot
of trouble by inviting him out.

957
01:20:02,007 --> 01:20:02,907
Shinji...

958
01:20:04,296 --> 01:20:06,203
...may I have a moment?

959
01:20:13,513 --> 01:20:15,354
We got a letter from your brother.

960
01:20:15,355 --> 01:20:18,355
It looks like he's going to get a job
that he applied for.

961
01:20:23,621 --> 01:20:26,429
I guess when things got rough
he had to go back to Tokyo.

962
01:20:27,432 --> 01:20:31,469
But he wants us to take
care of Rumiko for a while.

963
01:20:31,952 --> 01:20:33,122
Rumi-chan?

964
01:20:34,685 --> 01:20:37,711
He only wants me to come
to Tokyo by myself.

965
01:20:38,856 --> 01:20:41,157
He's always been like this.

966
01:20:42,158 --> 01:20:45,158
Everything he does just causes
trouble for others.

967
01:20:54,975 --> 01:20:56,581
It's raining.

968
01:21:06,643 --> 01:21:10,324
- The clouds are gone, so it'll stop soon.
- You're probably right.

969
01:21:23,885 --> 01:21:27,268
We used to come here
with Yumiko often.

970
01:21:28,329 --> 01:21:31,712
It was right after the war.
Things were terrible.

971
01:21:32,901 --> 01:21:35,565
But I feel nostalgic
for those days.

972
01:21:50,497 --> 01:21:51,792
Kids sure are cute.

973
01:22:00,023 --> 01:22:03,820
- Aren't you lonely without kids?
- Yes.

974
01:22:04,475 --> 01:22:06,742
And doesn't your husband's
mother want grandchildren?

975
01:22:07,679 --> 01:22:10,577
His brother's daughter
is staying with us.

976
01:22:11,334 --> 01:22:12,617
Is that right?

977
01:22:15,045 --> 01:22:16,578
Do you like kids, Kenkichi?

978
01:22:16,578 --> 01:22:18,306
Yes, I do. I love kids.

979
01:22:18,744 --> 01:22:21,098
Then you need to find yourself
a wife soon.

980
01:22:23,465 --> 01:22:25,980
I have to wait for my sister
to get married first.

981
01:22:25,981 --> 01:22:26,981
I suppose that's true.

982
01:22:27,871 --> 01:22:29,042
She's taking her time with it,
though.

983
01:22:29,042 --> 01:22:31,559
She says she doesn't want
to rush into anything.

984
01:22:32,575 --> 01:22:35,598
I guess she's right about that.

985
01:22:36,580 --> 01:22:38,686
If you marry without thinking it through,
it can be a big headache later.

986
01:23:15,485 --> 01:23:16,596
Kiyoko-san!

987
01:23:41,973 --> 01:23:43,210
The rain has stopped.

988
01:23:48,052 --> 01:23:49,986
- Shall we go?
- Yes.

989
01:24:39,434 --> 01:24:41,850
- I have something to talk to you about.
- What is it?

990
01:24:50,068 --> 01:24:53,664
The geisha who was missing,
Fuku, is...

991
01:24:55,266 --> 01:24:56,641
The geisha?

992
01:24:59,805 --> 01:25:01,724
What's happened to her?

993
01:25:03,570 --> 01:25:04,612
She's dead.

994
01:25:10,024 --> 01:25:11,004
And...

995
01:25:12,034 --> 01:25:14,634
She liked you, didn't she?

996
01:25:15,141 --> 01:25:16,077
No.

997
01:25:17,309 --> 01:25:20,570
And what about you,
did you like her?

998
01:25:21,310 --> 01:25:22,278
No!

999
01:25:23,630 --> 01:25:25,193
But she died, didn't she?

1000
01:25:25,440 --> 01:25:30,260
- But...
- She died for you, didn't she?

1001
01:25:31,074 --> 01:25:33,056
No, that's not true at all.

1002
01:25:33,851 --> 01:25:36,815
And you did it all behind
my back.

1003
01:25:39,482 --> 01:25:40,543
Kiyoko!

1004
01:26:34,724 --> 01:26:38,116
I didn't have any feelings
toward Fuku.

1005
01:26:39,117 --> 01:26:41,117
She didn't have any feelings
about me, either.

1006
01:26:41,616 --> 01:26:42,940
So why did she die, then?

1007
01:26:43,613 --> 01:26:47,827
I don't know.
I don't know anything about her.

1008
01:26:49,176 --> 01:26:50,604
That's a despicable way to say it.

1009
01:26:50,891 --> 01:26:54,635
She's dead and you can say
anything about her you want.

1010
01:26:56,654 --> 01:26:59,339
Even if you don't believe me,

1011
01:27:01,140 --> 01:27:05,140
even if you go off with
the person you really like...

1012
01:27:06,078 --> 01:27:09,493
"Person I really like"?
What are you talking about?

1013
01:27:11,898 --> 01:27:13,219
Kenkichi-san.

1014
01:27:16,715 --> 01:27:20,800
If you want to go to him, go ahead.
It's OK with me.

1015
01:27:22,438 --> 01:27:24,939
Why do you think I'm involved
with him?

1016
01:27:26,871 --> 01:27:29,758
If I'm wrong about this,
I'll apologize to you.

1017
01:27:34,946 --> 01:27:40,930
At any rate,
do what you want.

1018
01:27:42,931 --> 01:27:45,931
That's all I want of you.

1019
01:27:48,179 --> 01:27:51,588
I don't know what's going
to happen with this family.

1020
01:27:51,589 --> 01:27:53,589
I'm sorry about that.

1021
01:28:36,800 --> 01:28:39,049
Listen to what your granny tells you.
And be good.

1022
01:28:39,049 --> 01:28:39,965
Yes.

1023
01:28:43,007 --> 01:28:45,722
- Did Kiyoko go out?
- Yes.

1024
01:28:46,689 --> 01:28:49,029
Why did she do that when
she knows that Kaoru is leaving?

1025
01:28:49,683 --> 01:28:50,946
What's this?

1026
01:28:53,027 --> 01:28:55,412
Oh my!

1027
01:28:56,563 --> 01:28:59,651
"The reason for her suicide was
difficulty with her husband."

1028
01:29:00,027 --> 01:29:01,617
Poor girl.

1029
01:29:01,617 --> 01:29:03,536
To throw away the life that
her parents gave her just like that...

1030
01:29:03,536 --> 01:29:05,986
But it looks like her parents
were real pieces of work, too.

1031
01:29:07,359 --> 01:29:10,151
This is good. It doesn't say
anything about Shin-chan.

1032
01:29:10,886 --> 01:29:14,307
Really? Shin-chan
must be relieved.

1033
01:29:23,997 --> 01:29:24,975
Shall we take a picture?

1034
01:29:25,635 --> 01:29:28,438
Never mind.
Where are you going today?

1035
01:29:29,705 --> 01:29:32,138
I'm busy. I can't go look
at the cherry blossoms.

1036
01:29:32,887 --> 01:29:34,618
I have to be with my wife today.

1037
01:29:37,103 --> 01:29:39,302
- Will you have more to eat?
- Sure.

1038
01:29:41,629 --> 01:29:42,598
Thanks.

1039
01:29:43,421 --> 01:29:44,966
Hi there.

1040
01:29:46,931 --> 01:29:47,854
Well, see you later.

1041
01:29:48,684 --> 01:29:49,542
Bye.

1042
01:29:53,552 --> 01:29:54,795
Enjoy your visit.

1043
01:29:59,053 --> 01:30:01,554
- How about a hat?
- I don't need one.

1044
01:30:03,563 --> 01:30:04,958
When will you get back?

1045
01:30:05,703 --> 01:30:06,871
I don't know.

1046
01:30:14,683 --> 01:30:16,429
Did you go to see the
cherry blossoms?

1047
01:30:18,679 --> 01:30:19,455
No.

1048
01:30:20,953 --> 01:30:24,449
Really? I'm alone here, today.
Please stick around for a while.

1049
01:30:25,072 --> 01:30:25,915
Sure.

1050
01:30:27,105 --> 01:30:29,799
- Cigarettes.
- Yes. Just a second.

1051
01:30:30,606 --> 01:30:31,515
One pack, please.

1052
01:30:34,386 --> 01:30:35,821
Thank you very much.

1053
01:30:44,057 --> 01:30:45,630
I'll go on ahead with your things.

1054
01:30:47,676 --> 01:30:49,888
Listen to what you're
grandmother says.

1055
01:30:51,145 --> 01:30:54,771
Well, please take care of her.
And give my gratitude to Kiyoko.

1056
01:31:11,769 --> 01:31:14,035
Hello there!
I'll be with you in just a second.

1057
01:31:32,172 --> 01:31:33,467
Nice weather isn't it?

1058
01:31:34,560 --> 01:31:36,619
- Were you going to see the flowers?
- No.

1059
01:31:42,886 --> 01:31:44,477
Hey what happened with your caf�?

1060
01:31:47,971 --> 01:31:49,125
We're still going to do it.

1061
01:31:49,812 --> 01:31:53,159
Really? My brother was worried
about it.

1062
01:32:01,417 --> 01:32:03,971
I heard something for the first
time yesterday. It really surprised me.

1063
01:32:04,173 --> 01:32:04,907
What was it?

1064
01:32:06,533 --> 01:32:08,778
My husband thought
there was something

1065
01:32:08,779 --> 01:32:10,779
between me and your brother.

1066
01:32:12,411 --> 01:32:13,907
You and my brother?

1067
01:32:16,111 --> 01:32:18,904
It's rough being a married woman.

1068
01:32:19,948 --> 01:32:22,882
You walk a little with a man and people
start suspecting you. It'll shock you.

1069
01:32:27,250 --> 01:32:28,639
I was really surprised myself.

1070
01:32:33,916 --> 01:32:35,599
But don't tell your brother, though.

1071
01:32:37,639 --> 01:32:39,981
It's his fault for staying single.

1072
01:32:44,361 --> 01:32:45,781
Well, I should be going.

1073
01:32:46,701 --> 01:32:49,387
- You don't have to go! I'll get some tea.
- No need for that.

1074
01:32:52,037 --> 01:32:53,254
Bye!

1075
01:34:08,828 --> 01:34:10,999
- Nice to see you two together.
- Hello.

1076
01:34:17,530 --> 01:34:20,912
It'll be a little late,
but let's open it by fall.

1077
01:34:24,623 --> 01:34:26,952
Let's do it right, this time.

1078
01:34:46,285 --> 01:34:47,781
- Is the lady of the house still in?
- Yes, she is.

1079
01:34:47,781 --> 01:34:49,092
I'd like to see her.

1080
01:35:08,039 --> 01:35:09,445
I came to see how
you were doing.

1081
01:35:13,454 --> 01:35:15,228
Shinji seems happy.

1082
01:35:17,163 --> 01:35:18,320
Did he get over
his misunderstanding?

1083
01:35:21,421 --> 01:35:23,236
I talked to my brother.

1084
01:35:25,653 --> 01:35:26,813
What did he say?

1085
01:35:29,135 --> 01:35:30,474
He just laughed.

1086
01:35:34,093 --> 01:35:35,840
It's partly my fault.

1087
01:35:38,305 --> 01:35:42,816
It's difficult. It makes marriage seem
more and more disagreeable to me now.

1088
01:35:42,816 --> 01:35:44,109
Oh no!

1089
01:35:48,618 --> 01:35:50,770
- Welcome home.
- Hello there!

1090
01:35:56,485 --> 01:35:57,935
How did the talks go to today?

1091
01:35:58,201 --> 01:36:00,417
Quite well.
She was a really nice girl.

1092
01:36:00,744 --> 01:36:03,677
If those two get married it'll
make how many? Thirty?

1093
01:36:04,425 --> 01:36:05,362
Thirty?

1094
01:36:06,096 --> 01:36:08,932
That's right, you're still single,
aren't you?

1095
01:36:09,701 --> 01:36:10,570
What?

1096
01:36:11,494 --> 01:36:15,239
I know someone just right for you.
He's a university professor,

1097
01:36:15,456 --> 01:36:18,666
but he's very forthright.
I have a picture of him.

1098
01:36:31,068 --> 01:36:33,710
I'll make some Indian tea.
Will you have some?

1099
01:36:34,391 --> 01:36:35,955
That sounds good.

1100
01:36:41,271 --> 01:36:42,815
Just a second.

1101
01:36:43,208 --> 01:36:44,425
You have something on your coat.

1102
01:36:46,352 --> 01:36:48,069
This is the one
I was talking about.

1103
01:36:49,445 --> 01:36:50,334
Who's that?

1104
01:36:51,801 --> 01:36:54,404
She really has you in her sights.

1105
01:37:19,601 --> 01:37:25,404
