2
00:00:05,296 --> 00:00:10,760
The Fable

3
00:01:31,007 --> 00:01:32,258
A Wonderful Night

4
00:01:32,342 --> 00:01:33,927
[Takeshi] But...

5
00:01:34,010 --> 00:01:37,931
are you sure it's a good idea
to harbor a hitman, boss?

6
00:01:38,515 --> 00:01:40,391
We haven't got much choice.

7
00:01:40,475 --> 00:01:42,936
We and that group depend on one another.

8
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,565
The last boss worked with them too,
so I can't just turn my back on them.

9
00:01:47,649 --> 00:01:50,235
And it's not like we're harboring them.

10
00:01:50,318 --> 00:01:54,697
All we're doing is giving
the kids of a friend a place to live.

11
00:01:54,781 --> 00:01:57,700
I wonder what this Fable dude is like.

12
00:01:57,784 --> 00:01:59,244
I don't know.

13
00:01:59,327 --> 00:02:01,204
I've never met him either.

14
00:02:01,830 --> 00:02:06,042
The last boss told me about him.
He sounded totally unreal.

15
00:02:06,126 --> 00:02:07,502
The job he did

16
00:02:07,585 --> 00:02:11,965
three years ago to wipe out
the Sameken Group made even me cringe.

17
00:02:13,007 --> 00:02:14,634
[Hiroshi] <i>Just him alone,</i>

18
00:02:15,218 --> 00:02:18,221
<i>he wasted their boss and every member
in just two minutes.</i>

19
00:02:18,721 --> 00:02:21,641
<i>Nearly every corpse had only one shot</i>

20
00:02:21,724 --> 00:02:24,185
<i>either through the head or the heart.</i>

21
00:02:24,269 --> 00:02:28,064
<i>He took them all out
with a single, perfectly-placed shot.</i>

22
00:02:28,690 --> 00:02:31,317
Can a person actually kill so mercilessly?

23
00:02:31,901 --> 00:02:33,278
Do you know about the correlation

24
00:02:33,361 --> 00:02:35,321
between guilt
and your distance from the victim?

25
00:02:35,405 --> 00:02:36,406
[Takeshi] Huh?

26
00:02:36,489 --> 00:02:38,575
The trauma from killing just one person

27
00:02:38,658 --> 00:02:43,246
with your hands or a knife is greater
than killing thousands by bombing them.

28
00:02:43,329 --> 00:02:49,085
Ordinarily, people feel
a lot of reluctance to kill people.

29
00:02:49,169 --> 00:02:53,548
But he can commit murder,
then eat hamburger steaks on his way home.

30
00:02:53,631 --> 00:02:55,592
That's what Fable's like.

31
00:02:55,675 --> 00:02:58,469
- [soft grunt]
- [Hiroshi] He's a genius at killing.

32
00:02:58,553 --> 00:03:00,096
- [knocking on door]
- Oh.

33
00:03:01,181 --> 00:03:04,601
Boss, you have visitors.
Their name's Sato.

34
00:03:04,684 --> 00:03:06,811
Okay. Show them to the reception room.

35
00:03:07,645 --> 00:03:09,606
Don't let anyone in for a while.

36
00:03:09,689 --> 00:03:10,732
[Takeshi] Got it?

37
00:03:10,815 --> 00:03:11,816
Yes, sir.

38
00:03:12,692 --> 00:03:16,446
[in exciting voice]
Okay, the legendary hitman has shown up.

39
00:03:16,529 --> 00:03:18,114
Sit next to me, Captain.

40
00:03:18,198 --> 00:03:19,240
[Takeshi] Uh, okay.

41
00:03:21,701 --> 00:03:22,702
[knocking on door]

42
00:03:23,286 --> 00:03:25,079
- [door opens]
- [both grunt]

43
00:03:25,663 --> 00:03:26,664
[Hiroshi] Hmm?

44
00:03:27,165 --> 00:03:28,333
[door closes]

45
00:03:28,416 --> 00:03:30,335
[Yoko] Excuse us.

46
00:03:30,418 --> 00:03:31,586
[surprised grunt]

47
00:03:32,295 --> 00:03:33,963
[♪ bright, cheery music playing]

48
00:03:34,047 --> 00:03:35,590
[Yoko chuckles softly]

49
00:03:35,673 --> 00:03:36,674
Huh?

50
00:03:38,259 --> 00:03:39,594
Hi.

51
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,098
Hello.

52
00:03:44,182 --> 00:03:46,851
- [Hiroshi grunting awkwardly]
- [Takeshi] Go ahead, sit down.

53
00:03:46,935 --> 00:03:49,854
- Make yourselves comfortable.
- [deep sigh]

54
00:03:55,693 --> 00:03:56,736
Hey.

55
00:03:56,819 --> 00:03:58,112
Uh, right.

56
00:03:58,863 --> 00:04:02,158
[Takeshi]
You, I've got a question for you.

57
00:04:02,242 --> 00:04:04,619
Are you that Sato guy?

58
00:04:04,702 --> 00:04:07,080
Have any other people named Sato

59
00:04:07,163 --> 00:04:08,873
- visited you today?
- Uh...

60
00:04:08,957 --> 00:04:10,375
[soft grunt]

61
00:04:10,458 --> 00:04:12,877
[whispers]
Don't talk so rudely.

62
00:04:12,961 --> 00:04:18,549
Rumor has it you're a killing genius,
but it seems you're a social bumbler.

63
00:04:19,133 --> 00:04:21,636
You'd better watch your lip.

64
00:04:22,262 --> 00:04:23,972
I don't mean any harm.

65
00:04:24,055 --> 00:04:26,391
That's right. He doesn't mean any harm.

66
00:04:26,474 --> 00:04:27,642
[soft grunt]

67
00:04:28,268 --> 00:04:32,146
If you had to kill me and the boss
on the spur of the moment here,

68
00:04:32,897 --> 00:04:34,899
how would you do it, as a pro?

69
00:04:35,483 --> 00:04:37,068
In this situation?

70
00:04:37,151 --> 00:04:41,072
Right. At this very moment
in this exact situation.

71
00:04:41,155 --> 00:04:42,532
[Akira] Hmm...

72
00:04:43,157 --> 00:04:45,368
First, I'd crush your throat,

73
00:04:45,451 --> 00:04:47,328
and take the gun
from your left breast pocket.

74
00:04:47,412 --> 00:04:50,832
Hey! You've got a gun?

75
00:04:50,915 --> 00:04:53,960
It's what you people call
a lotus root gun.

76
00:04:54,043 --> 00:04:56,838
I'd say it's a .22 revolver.

77
00:04:59,299 --> 00:05:02,468
[Takeshi] No. It's a .38.

78
00:05:02,552 --> 00:05:04,721
- [Yoko gasps]
- Hey!

79
00:05:04,804 --> 00:05:07,890
You know bringing guns
into the office is prohibited.

80
00:05:07,974 --> 00:05:11,853
Sorry. Since Fable was coming,
I didn't want to be unarmed.

81
00:05:11,936 --> 00:05:13,855
Then what would you do?

82
00:05:13,938 --> 00:05:17,859
[Takeshi] With only five bullets left,
what would you do with the 10 men outside?

83
00:05:17,942 --> 00:05:21,237
No problem. I'd also take the boss's gun.

84
00:05:21,321 --> 00:05:23,531
- Huh?
- [soft grunt]

85
00:05:23,614 --> 00:05:24,991
[laughs]

86
00:05:25,491 --> 00:05:27,744
You got me there.

87
00:05:28,202 --> 00:05:30,330
[Hiroshi] You're really something, Sato.

88
00:05:31,831 --> 00:05:33,249
[shocked gasp]

89
00:05:34,042 --> 00:05:36,002
How could you tell?

90
00:05:36,085 --> 00:05:38,755
Was it our mannerisms? Our demeanor?

91
00:05:38,838 --> 00:05:42,759
It's hard to explain.
Even if I did, you wouldn't understand.

92
00:05:42,842 --> 00:05:44,761
- [annoyed grunt]
- [Hiroshi] Well, anyway,

93
00:05:44,844 --> 00:05:47,889
you two will be staying here
for one year, right?

94
00:05:47,972 --> 00:05:49,766
Take it nice and easy.

95
00:05:49,849 --> 00:05:54,020
The only people here who know
your true identity are me and the boss.

96
00:05:54,103 --> 00:05:55,855
The young guys don't know a thing.

97
00:05:56,439 --> 00:05:57,774
Keep that in mind.

98
00:05:58,441 --> 00:06:00,026
I understand.

99
00:06:00,109 --> 00:06:02,195
I know. I'm a pro.

100
00:06:02,278 --> 00:06:03,279
[annoyed grunt]

101
00:06:03,780 --> 00:06:08,201
We're glad to have you two siblings
living here for the next year.

102
00:06:08,284 --> 00:06:09,994
That being said...

103
00:06:10,078 --> 00:06:12,455
[slams on table]
We need to set some rules.

104
00:06:13,039 --> 00:06:14,040
Rules?

105
00:06:15,041 --> 00:06:16,918
They're simple rules.

106
00:06:17,001 --> 00:06:20,463
We'll give you a place to live.
Live there any way you like.

107
00:06:20,546 --> 00:06:26,010
But if you cause any trouble or accident,
we won't clean up after you one bit.

108
00:06:26,469 --> 00:06:29,680
If we decide
that you're causing trouble for the group,

109
00:06:29,764 --> 00:06:31,224
we'll immediately kick you out.

110
00:06:31,307 --> 00:06:33,059
We understand.

111
00:06:33,142 --> 00:06:34,727
That's perfectly clear.

112
00:06:34,811 --> 00:06:36,646
That's about it.

113
00:06:37,146 --> 00:06:40,942
Captain, show them to their home.

114
00:06:41,025 --> 00:06:43,361
All right. You ready to go?

115
00:06:43,444 --> 00:06:44,737
[Takeshi] It's real close...

116
00:06:44,821 --> 00:06:45,822
Hmm?

117
00:06:48,199 --> 00:06:49,242
What is it?

118
00:06:50,159 --> 00:06:51,244
What do you want?

119
00:06:52,745 --> 00:06:54,247
Can I say one thing?

120
00:06:54,330 --> 00:06:55,331
Huh?

121
00:06:57,041 --> 00:06:58,751
Your nose hair is sticking out.

122
00:06:59,335 --> 00:07:00,795
What? It is?

123
00:07:00,878 --> 00:07:03,172
[Takeshi in muffled voice]
You don't have to point that out.

124
00:07:03,256 --> 00:07:06,217
- Yakuza need to care for their appearance.
- Not that side.

125
00:07:06,300 --> 00:07:08,511
- The right hole.
- That's enough!

126
00:07:08,594 --> 00:07:11,639
Hey, don't push it back in.

127
00:07:11,722 --> 00:07:13,224
[Takeshi] I'll pluck it out later.

128
00:07:13,307 --> 00:07:14,517
It'll come out again.

129
00:07:15,101 --> 00:07:18,521
[Yoko] I can't believe you.
You'd better watch it!

130
00:07:18,604 --> 00:07:20,815
Who cares about nose hairs!

131
00:07:20,898 --> 00:07:23,025
Everything you do makes me nervous.

132
00:07:23,109 --> 00:07:26,028
It was bothering me.

133
00:07:26,112 --> 00:07:30,199
Doing pointless things like that
is what gets you into trouble.

134
00:07:30,283 --> 00:07:32,034
Be more careful!

135
00:07:32,118 --> 00:07:35,079
[Akira] I don't mean any harm though.

136
00:07:35,163 --> 00:07:37,874
[Takeshi] Damn it! That moron!

137
00:07:38,749 --> 00:07:40,418
What are you smiling about?

138
00:07:41,127 --> 00:07:42,920
You want outsiders here?

139
00:07:43,004 --> 00:07:46,549
No. It's just the sister is real pretty.

140
00:07:49,135 --> 00:07:50,136
[Takeshi] Here they are.

141
00:07:50,470 --> 00:07:51,554
Houses.

142
00:07:51,637 --> 00:07:54,640
Two next to each other.
Use them as you please.

143
00:07:54,724 --> 00:07:58,936
Originally, I and other members used them
when we were in trouble.

144
00:07:59,020 --> 00:08:01,063
So they've got some furniture.

145
00:08:01,147 --> 00:08:04,025
And this baby is my car.
It's a hobby of mine.

146
00:08:05,151 --> 00:08:06,861
What an old car.

147
00:08:06,944 --> 00:08:11,824
Yeah, well, it's a Hakosuka.
It's a real man's car.

148
00:08:11,908 --> 00:08:13,075
[Yoko] Hmm?

149
00:08:13,701 --> 00:08:17,288
[Takeshi] The door behind the car
leads to the house on the second floor.

150
00:08:17,747 --> 00:08:19,332
Bath, toilet, it's got it all.

151
00:08:20,166 --> 00:08:22,585
I've got another rule for you here.

152
00:08:22,668 --> 00:08:23,836
[both] Huh?

153
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,422
Don't you dare ever touch this car.

154
00:08:26,881 --> 00:08:28,090
Understand?

155
00:08:28,174 --> 00:08:31,469
- I've got no interest in this car.
- [Yoko mutters]

156
00:08:31,552 --> 00:08:32,887
- [Takeshi] Huh?
- By the way,

157
00:08:32,970 --> 00:08:35,598
- your nose hair's sticking out again.
- [grunts]

158
00:08:35,681 --> 00:08:37,016
Hey!

159
00:08:37,099 --> 00:08:40,770
I'm sorry. I'll teach him some good sense.

160
00:08:42,146 --> 00:08:43,481
- [Takeshi] Hey, Sato.
- Huh?

161
00:08:43,564 --> 00:08:46,609
I heard about your work from the boss.

162
00:08:46,692 --> 00:08:49,487
You kill almost all your targets
in one shot.

163
00:08:50,321 --> 00:08:53,616
But I don't trust rumors.

164
00:08:54,116 --> 00:08:57,745
I want to see your skills for myself.

165
00:08:58,496 --> 00:09:00,581
If that's what you want, fine.

166
00:09:00,665 --> 00:09:02,917
You can't go shooting a gun here!

167
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,544
It'll be fine.

168
00:09:04,627 --> 00:09:07,421
Nothing but old folks
live around here. Huh?

169

Revolvers...

173
00:09:16,264 --> 00:09:17,265
aren't my forte.

174
00:09:17,807 --> 00:09:18,808
What should I shoot?

175
00:09:18,891 --> 00:09:22,812
I'll tell you what to shoot.
Find and shoot it in under two seconds.

176
00:09:22,895 --> 00:09:23,896
[Yoko] Huh?

177
00:09:25,231 --> 00:09:26,232
Security camera.

178
00:09:27,191 --> 00:09:29,860
Ah! It's there! Over there!

179
00:09:31,112 --> 00:09:32,363
[Yoko] See, it's there.

180
00:09:32,446 --> 00:09:34,532
You shouldn't have hurried.

181
00:09:34,615 --> 00:09:36,867
This one bothered me more.

182
00:09:37,493 --> 00:09:38,494
Maybe next time.

183
00:09:38,869 --> 00:09:39,870

There's debris on the roof of my Hakosuka!

186
00:09:46,460 --> 00:09:47,587
Ah...

187
00:09:47,670 --> 00:09:50,131
You're the one who wanted me to shoot it.

188

[spluttering in shock]

189

190
00:09:53,718 --> 00:09:57,638
- [Takeshi] Huh?
- I will make the car perfectly clean.

191
00:09:57,722 --> 00:09:59,599
So, please forget what happened.

Hey, pull up the video
from the garage cameras on your phone.

195
00:10:09,108 --> 00:10:10,151
Uh, sure.

196
00:10:10,985 --> 00:10:12,194
[henchman] Huh?

197
00:10:12,278 --> 00:10:15,656
Looks like one of the two might be broken.

198
00:10:15,740 --> 00:10:18,117
[Takeshi scoffs]
One shot, huh?

199
00:10:18,451 --> 00:10:20,786
It was the small one too.

200
00:10:21,037 --> 00:10:23,164
Showered my precious car in junk as well.

201
00:10:23,247 --> 00:10:27,126
And that woman,
she's not just a simple companion.

[Takeshi] <i>Can't believe she got to me.</i>

[scoffs]
Get going!

204
00:10:32,757 --> 00:10:35,509
[Akira] Is this really such a great car?

205
00:10:35,593 --> 00:10:37,678
[Yoko] Hey! Get out of there!

206
00:10:38,596 --> 00:10:42,183
That's the kind of thing
that really ticks me off! Darn you!

207
00:10:43,267 --> 00:10:46,187
Keep an eye on those two.
That's an order from me.

208
00:10:46,270 --> 00:10:49,190
Understand? Don't take your eyes off them.

209
00:10:49,273 --> 00:10:51,192
Yes, sir. I'll do my best.

Are you kidding me?

00:10:55,529 --> 00:10:56,947
Aren't you a yakuza?

213
00:10:57,031 --> 00:11:00,326
The excuses of your sissy generation
won't fly in the yakuza.

Yes, sir!

Fine. I'm watching them closely.

236
00:12:23,617 --> 00:12:25,202
[Takeshi] I'm not asking about you.

237
00:12:25,286 --> 00:12:27,329
- The Sato siblings.
- Uh...

238
00:12:28,038 --> 00:12:31,167
They're fine too. No movement so far.

239
00:12:31,250 --> 00:12:36,464
But the cameras in the brother's place
must be busted. All six aren't working.

to watch these siblings?

I want to chase those two
out of this town.

But... didn't the boss...

The boss may be okay with it, but I'm not.

I want to chase those two out

That's something you don't need to know.

You got more questions?

No, it's okay. I get it.

It's habit.
It's an unfamiliar bar in a new town.

Don't cause any trouble.

You're one to talk.
You seriously need to be careful.

No matter what people say,
you're a pro at violence, right?

322
00:16:35,744 --> 00:16:39,081
So no more excuses like,
"It was just instinct."

323
00:16:39,707 --> 00:16:41,917
[henchman's friend]
I brought him, Takahashi.

324
00:16:42,001 --> 00:16:43,836
- [grunts]
- Evening.

325
00:16:43,919 --> 00:16:45,838
You the Muay Thai boxing guy?

326
00:16:45,921 --> 00:16:47,673
No, kickboxing.

327
00:16:47,756 --> 00:16:49,800
And you were a champ, right?

328
00:16:49,883 --> 00:16:51,468
Yeah, of West Japan.

329
00:16:51,552 --> 00:16:54,263
[Takahashi] Whatever, good enough.
Here's the plan.

330
00:16:54,346 --> 00:16:55,472
[kickboxer] Giving a beating?

331
00:16:55,556 --> 00:16:58,058
Just some light roughing up.

332
00:16:58,142 --> 00:17:00,853
But a couple of broken bones
would be nice.

333
00:17:01,645 --> 00:17:03,397
[Yoko exclaims happily]

334
00:17:04,940 --> 00:17:08,277
Those were good drinks. I like that place.

335
00:17:08,360 --> 00:17:10,320
Walk straight, you drunk.

336
00:17:10,404 --> 00:17:12,865
You can really hold your liquor, brother.

337
00:17:12,948 --> 00:17:15,409
I've never gotten drunk on booze.

338
00:17:15,492 --> 00:17:17,870
I just get a little light-headed.

339
00:17:17,953 --> 00:17:21,999
Oh, my.
You really are missing out on life.

340
00:17:22,082 --> 00:17:25,252
Let the liquor put you in a happy place,
and then...

341
00:17:26,336 --> 00:17:28,672
[Takahashi's friend] Having fun there,
love birds?

342
00:17:28,756 --> 00:17:30,966
- What're you looking at?
- [♪ suspenseful music playing]

343
00:17:31,050 --> 00:17:34,261
- [Yoko] Huh?
- [Takahashi's friend] This isn't a show!

344
00:17:34,344 --> 00:17:38,599
I know I asked them to do this,
but that's such a corny line.

345
00:17:38,682 --> 00:17:40,267
[chuckles]

346
00:17:40,350 --> 00:17:42,394
What's he mean by "show"?

347
00:17:42,478 --> 00:17:43,771
He means "don't stare."

348
00:17:43,854 --> 00:17:46,273
Shut up and buzz off, chick.

349
00:17:46,356 --> 00:17:50,110
Like he said, you go on home.

350
00:17:50,194 --> 00:17:53,530
What? Let's go to one more place.

351
00:17:54,990 --> 00:17:56,033
[Akira grunts]

352
00:17:56,408 --> 00:17:57,409
Hmm.

353
00:17:57,910 --> 00:18:01,914
Darn it!
I was all set on going to one more place.

354
00:18:01,997 --> 00:18:04,333
[Takahashi's friend]
Why don't you go alone, chick?

355
00:18:04,416 --> 00:18:06,502
Get on home, Yoko.

356
00:18:06,585 --> 00:18:07,961
What? Go home?

357
00:18:08,045 --> 00:18:12,091
If these guys hurt you, I'll kill them.

358
00:18:12,174 --> 00:18:14,843
We can't let that happen, brother!

359
00:18:14,927 --> 00:18:18,097
If I'm alone,
I can handle this just fine. Go on.

360
00:18:18,180 --> 00:18:20,349
Enough chatter!

361
00:18:20,432 --> 00:18:21,600
Bring it on, dude!

362
00:18:21,683 --> 00:18:24,019
Fine, I'll go home.

363
00:18:24,686 --> 00:18:25,938
[Yoko groans disappointedly]

364
00:18:26,021 --> 00:18:27,606
Go straight home.

365
00:18:27,689 --> 00:18:30,609
What? Did your woman dump you?

366
00:18:30,692 --> 00:18:31,860
[soft grunt]

367
00:18:32,319 --> 00:18:35,114
What a wuss. I'll handle this guy.

368
00:18:35,197 --> 00:18:38,450
- [Akira] <i>Height, 5.6 ft. Weight, 157 lbs.</i>
- [♪ tense music playing]

369
00:18:38,534 --> 00:18:41,078
<i>Zero martial arts experience.
All grit, no skill.</i>

370
00:18:41,161 --> 00:18:42,913
- <i>Right haymaker.</i>
- [bones cracking]

371
00:18:42,996 --> 00:18:45,082
<i>Pretend to take the punch,
break his fingers.</i>

372
00:18:45,165 --> 00:18:47,084
- [grunts]
- <i>Busted middle and ring fingers.</i>

373
00:18:47,167 --> 00:18:48,252
<i>Pretend to be in pain.</i>

374
00:18:48,335 --> 00:18:49,586
[screams]

375
00:18:49,670 --> 00:18:52,506
<i>Block his weak roundhouse kick
with my elbow.</i>

376
00:18:52,589 --> 00:18:55,759
<i>Bruise his right shin,
and pretend to be hit.</i>

377
00:18:56,969 --> 00:18:58,262
Watch this.

378
00:18:58,345 --> 00:19:02,349
[Akira] <i>From that first kick, I can tell
he's a fighter, probably kickboxing.</i>

379
00:19:02,933 --> 00:19:06,520
<i>Right away, a high kick.
He thinks I'm an amateur and will connect.</i>

380
00:19:07,104 --> 00:19:11,900
<i>I'll let him connect,
but slip away to mitigate the damage.</i>

381
00:19:12,985 --> 00:19:14,361
<i>Pretend to go flying.</i>

382
00:19:14,444 --> 00:19:15,445
[Akira grunts]

383
00:19:15,529 --> 00:19:17,114
- Yeah!
- [Akira] <i>Pretend it hurt.</i>

384
00:19:17,197 --> 00:19:19,491
[crying]

385
00:19:19,575 --> 00:19:20,576
[soft grunt]

386
00:19:21,577 --> 00:19:23,495
Hey, get up.

387
00:19:23,579 --> 00:19:25,497
- [Akira] <i>Pretend to be hurt.</i>
- [groans]

388
00:19:25,581 --> 00:19:27,166
- [grunts]
- <i>Left jab.</i>

389
00:19:27,249 --> 00:19:28,667
<i>Take it and get a nosebleed.</i>

390
00:19:28,750 --> 00:19:31,170
- [grunts]
- [Akira] <i>See? Blood.</i>

391
00:19:31,253 --> 00:19:32,546
[groans]

392
00:19:32,629 --> 00:19:36,175
<i>Use the tears that came with the blood
to pretend to be a wimp.</i>

393
00:19:36,258 --> 00:19:38,427
[Akira sobs]
I'm sorry... I'm sorry...

394
00:19:38,510 --> 00:19:42,181
[Akira] <i>How's this for a pathetic look?
Here's a pro for you!</i>

395
00:19:42,264 --> 00:19:46,435
Sheesh! You call yourself a man?
How pathetic.

396
00:19:46,518 --> 00:19:49,229
That didn't feel quite right.

397
00:19:49,313 --> 00:19:50,522
[neighbor exclaims worriedly]

398
00:19:51,481 --> 00:19:53,275
What're you looking at?

399
00:19:53,358 --> 00:19:55,194
[kickboxer clicks tongue]
That's probably good enough.

400
00:19:55,277 --> 00:19:56,445
[soft grunt]

401
00:19:57,279 --> 00:19:59,198
- Let's go.
- [Takahashi's friend] Yeah.

402
00:19:59,281 --> 00:20:01,783
[Akira sobbing]

403
00:20:02,618 --> 00:20:03,702
[sighs]

404
00:20:04,286 --> 00:20:07,414
- [Akira] <i>Magnificent. I really am a pro.</i>
- [footsteps approaching]

405
00:20:07,497 --> 00:20:09,708
- [neighbor] Excuse me. You okay?
- Hmm?

406
00:20:09,791 --> 00:20:12,211
You want to use my handkerchief?

407
00:20:12,294 --> 00:20:14,213
[Akira] <i>Wait. Isn't this...</i>

408
00:20:14,796 --> 00:20:19,218
<i>the woman I saw from the roof
who tripped while running up the stairs?</i>

409
00:20:19,801 --> 00:20:21,303
No, I'm fine.

410
00:20:21,386 --> 00:20:22,471
[neighbor] Okay.

411
00:20:26,934 --> 00:20:29,811
[Akira] <i>There she goes running again.</i>

412
00:20:30,437 --> 00:20:33,190
[Takahashi] Here, 10,000 yen.
Split it between you.

413
00:20:33,649 --> 00:20:35,943
That was good work.

414
00:20:36,026 --> 00:20:37,778
5,000 yen each?

415
00:20:38,237 --> 00:20:39,446
That's cheap!

416
00:20:40,113 --> 00:20:42,115
Quit complaining.

417
00:20:42,199 --> 00:20:45,619
Some places only pay 5,000 yen
for eight hours of construction work.

418
00:20:45,702 --> 00:20:47,704
The risk is totally different.

419
00:20:47,788 --> 00:20:49,790
Your fingers are swollen.

420
00:20:49,873 --> 00:20:50,874
You okay?

421
00:20:50,958 --> 00:20:53,919
It's nothing. Just jammed it a little.

422
00:20:54,544 --> 00:20:57,089
I can tell you're a kickboxing champ.

423
00:20:57,172 --> 00:20:58,882
You made that guy fly.

424
00:20:58,966 --> 00:21:02,594
Hmm... But I didn't kick him that hard.

425
00:21:03,553 --> 00:21:05,639
[Akira humming]

426
00:21:09,935 --> 00:21:11,645
[gulping]

427
00:21:13,772 --> 00:21:15,357
Oh...

428
00:21:16,483 --> 00:21:19,528
[Akira] Osaka's pretty fun.
