165
00:09:41,497 --> 00:09:43,124
[blowing air]

166
00:09:43,207 --> 00:09:46,669
If we're just lying low,
why go all the way to Osaka?

167
00:09:46,752 --> 00:09:48,004
You need to.

168
00:09:48,254 --> 00:09:51,549
Experience starting over
in an unfamiliar place.

169
00:09:52,133 --> 00:09:56,178
If you learn to adapt,
you'll become an even better pro.

170
00:09:56,971 --> 00:09:58,431
A better pro, huh?

171
00:09:59,390 --> 00:10:04,312
[Boss] It's important to be able to adapt
to any environment and situation.

172
00:10:04,645 --> 00:10:08,190
Turn into a totally ordinary person.

173
00:10:08,274 --> 00:10:11,360
You can get work or do part-time jobs.

174
00:10:11,569 --> 00:10:13,613
You can make friends.

175
00:10:13,904 --> 00:10:15,698
You can even fall in love.

176
00:10:16,282 --> 00:10:19,452
Learn how to live as an ordinary human.

177
00:10:19,535 --> 00:10:20,578
[chuckles]

178
00:10:20,661 --> 00:10:24,457
Sounds like lots of fun, huh, Fable?

179
00:10:25,124 --> 00:10:28,794
Blend in as an ordinary person
as part of being a pro hitman.

180
00:10:29,587 --> 00:10:31,422
That does sound fun.

181
00:10:31,672 --> 00:10:33,466
- [assistant] Here.
- Hmm?

182
00:10:34,050 --> 00:10:35,051
It's ready.

183
00:10:36,052 --> 00:10:40,473
But if you kill anyone
while you're on break,

184
00:10:40,556 --> 00:10:43,017
I'll kill the both of you.

185
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:47,688
Right.

186
00:10:48,105 --> 00:10:49,190
As a pro...

187
00:10:49,273 --> 00:10:51,942
That's hot!
[groaning]

188
00:10:52,860 --> 00:10:57,531
All you're bringing is a backpack
and the bag full of money?

189
00:10:58,032 --> 00:11:02,453
I've had to move from place to place
to get to each target.

190
00:11:02,536 --> 00:11:04,955
Even so, you've got almost nothing.

191
00:11:05,706 --> 00:11:06,874
- [Fable] Yeah.
- [assistant] Boss gave me this.

192
00:11:06,957 --> 00:11:07,958
[Fable] What is it?

193
00:11:08,292 --> 00:11:09,960
[assistant] Your fake driver's license.

194
00:11:10,753 --> 00:11:12,546
I've got your insurance card too.

195
00:11:13,047 --> 00:11:14,799
Driver's License

196
00:11:14,882 --> 00:11:16,258
[soft giggle]

197
00:11:16,884 --> 00:11:19,053
{\an8}[Fable] "Akira Sato."

198
00:11:19,136 --> 00:11:21,305
So, that's my name, huh?

199
00:11:21,389 --> 00:11:23,933
[assistant] You hide a gun there?

200
00:11:24,016 --> 00:11:25,309
[Akira] What about that address?

201
00:11:25,893 --> 00:11:27,520
Have we already got a place?

202
00:11:28,354 --> 00:11:29,563
I don't know.

203
00:11:30,147 --> 00:11:33,401
He said the group in Osaka
would get us a place.

204
00:11:33,484 --> 00:11:36,028
[Akira] By the way, what's your name?

205
00:11:36,112 --> 00:11:38,531
[assistant] I'm Yoko Sato.

206
00:11:39,198 --> 00:11:40,408
Sato?

207
00:11:40,991 --> 00:11:44,412
Apparently, we're supposed to be siblings.

208
00:11:45,079 --> 00:11:46,914
- Me and you?
- [tape ripping]

209
00:11:46,997 --> 00:11:49,417
[Akira]
Boss is amusing himself at our expense.

210
00:11:49,875 --> 00:11:52,044
Yeah, he was grinning.

211
00:11:52,128 --> 00:11:54,588
Show me the photo
on your driver's license.

212
00:11:54,672 --> 00:11:55,798
No way!

213
00:11:56,716 --> 00:11:59,051
Tsk. Put this in the microwave.

214
00:11:59,468 --> 00:12:00,553
Why?

215
00:12:02,304 --> 00:12:03,305
[fridge door opens]

216
00:12:05,224 --> 00:12:07,017
I'm thirsty.

217
00:12:07,101 --> 00:12:09,019
[Yoko] Do you have one for your sister?

218
00:12:09,103 --> 00:12:11,021
[Akira] My "sister," huh?

219
00:12:11,981 --> 00:12:13,107
What?

220
00:12:14,108 --> 00:12:16,277
[Yoko] You hide bullets in that?

221
00:12:16,861 --> 00:12:19,280
Get that spray can from over there,

222
00:12:19,363 --> 00:12:20,781
sister.

223
00:12:21,407 --> 00:12:23,242
- [Yoko] This?
- Yeah.

224
00:12:27,329 --> 00:12:28,998
[Akira] This is the barrel.

225
00:12:29,582 --> 00:12:32,334
- Boss told us not to bring any guns.
- [bullets clinking]

226
00:12:32,418 --> 00:12:34,503
[Akira] That's why I'm getting them out.

227
00:12:34,587 --> 00:12:37,089
I'll leave them in the microwave.

228
00:12:37,673 --> 00:12:40,009
Boss will come pick them up tomorrow.

229
00:12:40,092 --> 00:12:44,513
Only your Glock and PPK are in there.
Where's your Nighthawk?

230
00:12:44,597 --> 00:12:46,432
I put the barrel in.

231
00:12:47,099 --> 00:12:49,435
I don't mean just the barrel.

232
00:12:49,518 --> 00:12:51,353
Where's the gun body?

233
00:12:52,980 --> 00:12:54,273
[Akira] You mean this?

234
00:12:54,356 --> 00:12:57,318
You can't!
Even disassembled, a gun is still a gun.

235
00:12:57,401 --> 00:12:59,904
Without a barrel, a gun can't shoot.

236
00:12:59,987 --> 00:13:02,323
The Nighthawk is my partner.

237
00:13:03,449 --> 00:13:05,284
[Akira] I'm definitely bringing this.

238
00:13:05,868 --> 00:13:08,996
Don't you understand
what we'll be doing for the next year?

239
00:13:09,079 --> 00:13:13,793
We're becoming ordinary people to hide
our identities and live normal lives.

240
00:13:15,878 --> 00:13:17,296
I understand that.

241
00:13:19,215 --> 00:13:20,800
Akira Sato

242
00:13:20,883 --> 00:13:23,844
Don't blame me if Boss gets mad.

243
00:13:24,637 --> 00:13:28,057
[Akira] "Birthdate, April 1."

244
00:13:28,140 --> 00:13:29,975
April Fool's Day.

245
00:13:31,185 --> 00:13:33,062
The day of liars.

246
00:13:33,145 --> 00:13:34,605
No, that's not it.

247
00:13:34,688 --> 00:13:36,482
You're allowed to lie on that day.

248
00:13:36,565 --> 00:13:40,027
We'll be living a life of lies anyway,
so it's perfect.

249
00:13:40,569 --> 00:13:41,654
Boss's humor.

250
00:13:42,154 --> 00:13:45,658
Show me the birthday
on your driver's license.

251
00:13:45,741 --> 00:13:46,826
No way!

252
00:13:48,702 --> 00:13:50,579
- Tsk.
- [Yoko] Come on.

253
00:13:51,163 --> 00:13:52,206
We're leaving.

254
00:13:52,915 --> 00:13:55,668
We'll be in Osaka by morning.

255
00:13:56,168 --> 00:13:57,419
- [door opens]
- [annoyed grunt]

256
00:13:58,420 --> 00:14:01,924
Shin-Meishin Expressway

257
00:14:04,218 --> 00:14:07,847
Say, why'd you become a hitman, brother?

258
00:14:08,138 --> 00:14:10,432
"Brother"? Tsk.

259
00:14:10,850 --> 00:14:13,352
[Yoko] Hey, don't you "tsk" me.

260
00:14:14,019 --> 00:14:17,231
We'll be living as siblings
for a whole year, you know.

261
00:14:17,314 --> 00:14:20,025
We need to start
getting used to it right now.

262
00:14:20,109 --> 00:14:22,361
Then what about you, sister?

263
00:14:22,444 --> 00:14:24,113
What was it again? Yoko?

264
00:14:24,196 --> 00:14:26,323
Were you Boss's lover or something?

265
00:14:26,407 --> 00:14:29,034
No way! Don't tick me off like that.

266
00:14:29,869 --> 00:14:34,623
When I was 10, my house burned down
and my mom and dad died.

267
00:14:34,707 --> 00:14:37,960
For some reason, Boss took me in.

268
00:14:39,003 --> 00:14:42,715
He taught me all kinds of stuff
since I was little.

269
00:14:43,215 --> 00:14:47,219
Then all of a sudden, a year ago,
he made me your assistant and driver.

270
00:14:47,803 --> 00:14:50,639
Okay, I've told you my story.

271
00:14:50,890 --> 00:14:52,224
Now it's your turn.

272
00:14:52,892 --> 00:14:54,018
Me?

273
00:14:55,144 --> 00:14:56,520
[Akira] I don't feel like it.

274
00:14:56,604 --> 00:14:58,314
Not fair!

275
00:14:58,397 --> 00:15:00,649
Then show me your driver's license.

276
00:15:00,733 --> 00:15:01,901
[Yoko] No way!

277
00:15:01,984 --> 00:15:04,361
[Akira] Then I won't talk.

278
00:15:14,246 --> 00:15:15,331
[car doors close]

279
00:15:16,332 --> 00:15:17,750
[Yoko] Huh? What is it?

280
00:15:18,250 --> 00:15:19,877
[sighs]

281
00:15:21,253 --> 00:15:25,299
Those two over there are car burglars.

282
00:15:25,382 --> 00:15:28,302
Huh? Who? You can tell?

283
00:15:28,385 --> 00:15:31,180
[Akira] Yeah. Their attitude and air.

284
00:15:31,263 --> 00:15:35,559
Hmm... Anyway,
don't cause any trouble, okay?

285
00:15:36,268 --> 00:15:38,687
I'll keep an eye on the car just in case.

286
00:15:39,271 --> 00:15:41,857
Get me a coffee
after you're done in the restroom.

287
00:15:41,941 --> 00:15:44,568
- Hot coffee?
- [Akira] Make it cold.

288
00:15:54,745 --> 00:15:58,123
No, that car's no good.

289
00:15:59,083 --> 00:16:03,462
It's got a child seat in it.
Learn to sniff out the money.

290
00:16:04,380 --> 00:16:07,841
There's no point
in looking in that old junker.

291
00:16:07,925 --> 00:16:11,720
Hey, there's a bag with 50 million in it
two cars down.

292
00:16:12,596 --> 00:16:15,224
[Akira] That's right. That one.

293
00:16:15,808 --> 00:16:19,228
You can smell the money, right?
Smell it. Smell it.

294
00:16:20,104 --> 00:16:21,730
Aw, too bad.

295
00:16:22,523 --> 00:16:23,732
They're not pros.

296
00:16:24,483 --> 00:16:25,484
[thug] Huh?

297
00:16:29,238 --> 00:16:30,322
[annoyed grunt]

298
00:16:35,327 --> 00:16:38,288
Let's not have any useless violence.

299
00:16:38,372 --> 00:16:39,665
It won't do any good.

300
00:16:40,249 --> 00:16:42,376
Just stand up, you punk.

301
00:16:42,459 --> 00:16:45,337
[Akira] I'll stand up, but don't touch me.

302
00:16:45,421 --> 00:16:48,799
If you're going to wuss out,
then don't stare.

303
00:16:49,717 --> 00:16:51,802
For starters, get out your wallet.

304
00:16:51,885 --> 00:16:53,762
- [bone cracks]
- [grunts]

305
00:16:55,014 --> 00:16:56,306
[grunts]

306
00:16:57,099 --> 00:16:58,100
[bodies thud]

307
00:16:58,183 --> 00:17:00,060
[Yoko screaming]

308
00:17:00,144 --> 00:17:02,062
[screaming continues]

309
00:17:02,771 --> 00:17:05,482
It was just instinct.

310
00:17:05,566 --> 00:17:09,194
Darn you!
Didn't he just warn you yesterday?

311
00:17:09,278 --> 00:17:11,613
They came at me first.

312
00:17:11,697 --> 00:17:13,073
No excuses!

313
00:17:13,991 --> 00:17:17,327
How can you pick on
little wimp car burglars?

314
00:17:17,411 --> 00:17:20,372
Not my fault.
I only did it because they touched me.

315
00:17:20,456 --> 00:17:23,083
[Yoko] Just get going!
Forget about it.

316
00:17:23,667 --> 00:17:26,712
- Hey, you punks. Say something.
- [Yoko] Enough!

317
00:17:26,795 --> 00:17:27,921
Don't look back!

318
00:17:28,005 --> 00:17:29,715
[thugs groaning]

319
00:17:30,924 --> 00:17:31,925
Tsk.

320
00:17:32,634 --> 00:17:33,719
[Yoko] Get in! Now!

321
00:17:34,428 --> 00:17:36,096
- [tires screech]
- [engine revving]

322
00:17:39,558 --> 00:17:41,894
[Yoko] Are you stupid?

323
00:17:41,977 --> 00:17:45,022
The moment we try to become
ordinary people, you do this?

324
00:17:45,105 --> 00:17:48,442
[Akira groans] It's because
I trained to take down any opponent

325
00:17:48,525 --> 00:17:50,527
in under six seconds.

326
00:17:50,611 --> 00:17:52,529
Who cares about that!

327
00:17:52,780 --> 00:17:55,657
Are you going to harm
everyone we meet like that?

328
00:17:55,741 --> 00:17:57,618
I thought you were a pro!

329
00:17:58,285 --> 00:18:00,120
Yeah, I'm a pro.

330
00:18:00,454 --> 00:18:03,957
For the next year, if you go off
over little things like that,

331
00:18:04,041 --> 00:18:05,918
you'll end up killing someone.

332
00:18:06,085 --> 00:18:07,336
Don't you understand that?

333
00:18:07,836 --> 00:18:09,296
True...

334
00:18:10,047 --> 00:18:12,132
Say, Yoko.

335
00:18:12,216 --> 00:18:13,217
What?

336
00:18:13,300 --> 00:18:15,761
You know, actually...

337
00:18:16,887 --> 00:18:19,139
this may not be so easy.

338
00:18:20,891 --> 00:18:23,352
[Yoko] We'll be in Osaka soon.

339
00:18:23,852 --> 00:18:25,729
It's dawn.

340
00:18:27,356 --> 00:18:30,776
[sighs]
By the way, can you speak Kansai dialect?

341
00:18:31,360 --> 00:18:34,279
I've mastered five languages,
Kansai dialect, Hiroshima dialect,

342
00:18:34,363 --> 00:18:39,910
Kyushu dialect, Tohoku dialect,
and standard dialect.

343
00:18:39,993 --> 00:18:41,495
Those are all Japanese.

344
00:18:42,371 --> 00:18:46,917
Tsk. You have no idea
just how useful that is, do you?

345
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:51,922
Never mind that. You've got to
make it a habit to speak the dialect.

346
00:18:52,005 --> 00:18:56,635
All I have to do is
flip the switch in my head.

347
00:18:56,718 --> 00:18:57,928
Is that so?

348
00:18:58,679 --> 00:19:02,933
And your name is Akira Sato.
Don't forget that.

349
00:19:03,934 --> 00:19:06,145
[Akira] What's up with Maguro Group now?

350
00:19:06,228 --> 00:19:09,940
[Yoko] Don't you know?
You've worked with them.

351
00:19:10,023 --> 00:19:12,067
That was three years ago.

352
00:19:12,234 --> 00:19:14,611
I just did the hit, that's all.

353
00:19:14,736 --> 00:19:17,322
Is that right? So you've never met them?

354
00:19:17,990 --> 00:19:22,578
Why would I meet with the client?
It just increases the risk.

355
00:19:23,203 --> 00:19:25,247
[Yoko]
There's about 20 people in the group.

356
00:19:25,539 --> 00:19:29,668
They're the only yakuza
in Asase-cho, Taihei, Osaka.

357
00:19:30,169 --> 00:19:34,006
Their boss is Hiroshi Hamada, age 53.
He's their fourth-generation boss.

358
00:19:34,089 --> 00:19:36,592
He succeeded as boss two years ago.

359
00:19:37,217 --> 00:19:40,179
Their captain is Takeshi Ebihara, age 38.

360
00:19:40,679 --> 00:19:43,599
He's a hardcore bruiser
with five previous convictions.

361
00:19:44,850 --> 00:19:48,437
Those two are the only ones
who know about our situation.

362
00:19:53,192 --> 00:19:54,359
[confused exclaim]

363
00:19:54,443 --> 00:19:57,362
- [♪ quirky music playing]
- [groaning softly]

364
00:19:57,446 --> 00:19:59,448
[awkward grunt]

365
00:20:00,824 --> 00:20:02,367
That flipped the switch.

366
00:20:04,161 --> 00:20:05,704
Aren't you coming?

367
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,292
- Are you sure that'll work?
- [car door closes]

368
00:20:11,335 --> 00:20:12,878
[in Kansai dialect]
Get a move on.

369
00:20:12,961 --> 00:20:14,338
The heck are we?

370
00:20:14,421 --> 00:20:17,507
[Akira] The heck am I here for?
The heck are we doing?

371
00:20:17,591 --> 00:20:21,136
- [Yoko] That's perfect!
- [Akira] Damn straight it's perfect.

372
00:20:23,722 --> 00:20:25,140
[Yoko] Let's go in here.

373
00:20:25,224 --> 00:20:26,391
[Akira in normal voice]
Why?

374
00:20:26,475 --> 00:20:28,894
[Yoko] You need to get clothes, brother.

375
00:20:28,977 --> 00:20:32,064
You can't wear that black V-neck T-shirt.

376
00:20:32,147 --> 00:20:33,398
Oh?

377
00:20:33,482 --> 00:20:36,902
You've got to change
the first impression you'll make.

378
00:20:37,569 --> 00:20:38,904
Oh.

379
00:20:38,987 --> 00:20:40,405
Maguro

380
00:20:41,865 --> 00:20:42,908
Boss,

381
00:20:42,991 --> 00:20:44,326
should we be doing this?

382
00:20:44,409 --> 00:20:45,410
Doing what?

383
00:20:45,994 --> 00:20:48,455
I know we've worked with them
since the last boss,

384
00:20:48,538 --> 00:20:51,917
but should we really be harboring
that freelance hitman punk?

385
00:20:52,501 --> 00:20:55,170
I'll agree, it's not ideal.

386
00:20:56,046 --> 00:20:59,174
It's like swimming with a shark
without having a cage.

387
00:20:59,258 --> 00:21:02,177
Maybe so,
but Fable's more like a wild killer whale.

388
00:21:02,844 --> 00:21:06,932
Well, well. My captain, Ebihara
thinks that highly of him, huh?

389
00:21:07,015 --> 00:21:09,685
I know lots of dangerous people.

390
00:21:09,768 --> 00:21:11,436
But this guy...

391
00:21:12,020 --> 00:21:14,064
Listen, Ebihara.

392
00:21:14,189 --> 00:21:17,943
This shark or killer whale or whatever,
he won't frighten us.

393
00:21:18,026 --> 00:21:20,237
Let him swim free.

394
00:21:21,530 --> 00:21:23,782
