17
00:02:33,671 --> 00:02:36,507
So what exactly is it you want?

18
00:02:38,550 --> 00:02:43,514
Look, National Shoes
is in business to make money.

19
00:02:43,681 --> 00:02:47,476
That’s right. You should
think twice about this model.

20
00:02:48,644 --> 00:02:51,522
Do you really think
it will boost sales?

21
00:02:51,689 --> 00:02:52,523
Hold on a second.

22
00:02:53,732 --> 00:02:56,485
We"re not losing money.

23
00:02:56,944 --> 00:03:00,239
They're great shoes,
but they cost too much.

24
00:03:00,406 --> 00:03:02,241
And they're old-fashioned.

25
00:03:02,408 --> 00:03:04,368
And another thing.

26
00:03:04,535 --> 00:03:06,245
They're too durable.

27
00:03:06,745 --> 00:03:09,581
If shoes don't wear out,
we don't sell any.

28
00:03:10,374 --> 00:03:14,169
Look, Gondo,
women see shoes as accessories,

29
00:03:14,336 --> 00:03:16,296
like hats and handbags.

30
00:03:16,463 --> 00:03:20,384
They flock to stylish designs
at affordable prices.

31
00:03:20,592 --> 00:03:21,927
Exactly.

32
00:03:22,094 --> 00:03:26,056
Our shoes are practical.

33
00:03:26,515 --> 00:03:31,270
Women's hats don't wear long.

34
00:03:31,437 --> 00:03:32,563
Why should their shoes?

35
00:03:32,730 --> 00:03:35,816
You're wrong.
Shoes and hats aren't the same.

36
00:03:35,983 --> 00:03:39,570
A woman wears
a hat on her head,

37
00:03:40,028 --> 00:03:42,197
but shoes carry all her weight.

38
00:03:50,706 --> 00:03:53,459
1-0 for you.

39
00:03:53,625 --> 00:03:57,129
Listen, you may be happy
with our product line,

40
00:03:57,296 --> 00:04:02,342
but as director I have to ask
why sales have been flat.

41
00:04:02,718 --> 00:04:03,969
That's why we're here.

42
00:04:04,136 --> 00:04:06,889
What are you asking me to do?

43
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,642
Let me be frank.

44
00:04:11,143 --> 00:04:14,271
We are the directors
of National Shoes.

45
00:04:14,813 --> 00:04:18,984
I'm in charge of sales and operations.
You run the factory.

46
00:04:19,193 --> 00:04:22,988
Ishimaru takes care of design.
Kamiya handles marketing.

47
00:04:23,322 --> 00:04:25,157
Kawanishi is your right hand,

48
00:04:25,324 --> 00:04:28,452
and a future executive.

49
00:04:29,203 --> 00:04:33,791
<i>We're all agreed
on what our problem is.</i>

50
00:04:33,957 --> 00:04:35,501
And what might that be?

51
00:04:35,918 --> 00:04:36,960
Our president.

52
00:04:37,127 --> 00:04:41,507
The Old Man's backward.
His dream shoe is an army boot.

53
00:04:41,673 --> 00:04:45,302
But he holds enough stock
to dominate the shareholder meetings.

54
00:04:45,469 --> 00:04:47,179
We can't do a thing.

55
00:04:47,346 --> 00:04:49,598
Show him the sample.

56
00:04:55,020 --> 00:04:59,691
Look at this style, this taste.
It's a sure winner.

57
00:04:59,983 --> 00:05:01,860
Ishimaru,
this is a masterpiece.

58
00:05:02,069 --> 00:05:05,322
And we can make them
at half the cost.

59
00:05:08,951 --> 00:05:09,868
Well?

60
00:05:12,329 --> 00:05:14,039
What would the Old Man say?

61
00:05:14,748 --> 00:05:17,084
We won't let him say anything.

62
00:05:18,043 --> 00:05:23,090
He may own a lot of stock,
but what if we join forces?

63
00:05:24,299 --> 00:05:26,885
He holds 25%.

64
00:05:27,261 --> 00:05:29,638
You three together hold 21%.

65
00:05:30,013 --> 00:05:31,598
Not enough to vote him out.

66
00:05:31,765 --> 00:05:33,433
Gondo...

67
00:05:34,518 --> 00:05:38,105
we included your holdings
in our calculations.

68
00:05:38,939 --> 00:05:42,067
What do you say?
Will you join us?

69
00:05:42,734 --> 00:05:47,072
With your 13%,
we'd have 34%.

70
00:05:47,447 --> 00:05:50,242
More than enough
to boot the Old Man out.

71
00:05:51,326 --> 00:05:55,289
And who'd be
the new president?

72
00:05:57,291 --> 00:06:02,754
Well, you're certainly
a candidate, but —

73
00:06:02,921 --> 00:06:06,925
But since this plan
was Baba's idea,

74
00:06:07,217 --> 00:06:09,386
he'll be the next president.

75
00:06:09,678 --> 00:06:12,222
You'll be executive director.

76
00:06:12,389 --> 00:06:15,058
Fair enough?

77
00:06:43,045 --> 00:06:45,881
The Old Man may be old-fashioned,

78
00:06:46,048 --> 00:06:49,801
but at least he makes real shoes.

79
00:06:49,968 --> 00:06:52,971
Yours are trash.

80
00:06:53,138 --> 00:06:54,723
Listen to me.

81
00:06:55,515 --> 00:07:00,479
I started as an apprentice
at National Shoes when I was 16.

82
00:07:00,646 --> 00:07:04,900
Aside from time in the army,
I've spent 30 years of my life there.

83
00:07:05,943 --> 00:07:09,321
I know every sound
and smell in that factory.

84
00:07:10,155 --> 00:07:14,368
We've made many shoes.
I remember them all.

85
00:07:14,534 --> 00:07:17,245
They were all good,
durable shoes.

86
00:07:17,746 --> 00:07:21,083
I can't put our name
on garbage like this.

87
00:07:21,249 --> 00:07:25,545
Listen!
This shoe wouldn't last a month.

88
00:07:26,004 --> 00:07:28,131
There's no steel shank.

89
00:07:28,298 --> 00:07:30,175
The insole is cardboard,

90
00:07:30,342 --> 00:07:32,886
glued rather than
properly stitched.

91
00:07:33,053 --> 00:07:35,931
The inner lining is flimsy.

92
00:07:36,807 --> 00:07:38,600
You want money for this?

93
00:07:38,767 --> 00:07:40,352
But the costs —

94
00:07:40,519 --> 00:07:42,521
Costs are eating our profits.

95
00:07:42,688 --> 00:07:44,606
- Business is business!
- I know that!

96
00:07:44,773 --> 00:07:48,276
I love this business
more than I can say.

97
00:07:48,443 --> 00:07:50,696
Shoes are my life.
I won't do slipshod work.

98
00:07:51,113 --> 00:07:54,533
So you'll keep making
the Old Man's army boots?

99
00:07:55,367 --> 00:07:58,203
No. He's wrong too.

100
00:08:09,047 --> 00:08:11,717
He's wrong. We're wrong.
What's left?

101
00:08:12,884 --> 00:08:18,223
I’ll make my ideal shoes:
comfortable, durable, yet stylish.

102
00:08:18,932 --> 00:08:21,935
Expensive to make maybe,

103
00:08:22,144 --> 00:08:25,272
but profitable
in the long run.

104
00:08:25,439 --> 00:08:29,901
How romantic.
Only we won't let you.

105
00:08:31,111 --> 00:08:37,367
If we vote with the Old Man,
we can force you out.

106
00:08:37,534 --> 00:08:40,412
Be my guest. The shareholders'
meeting is next month.

107
00:08:42,497 --> 00:08:45,417
Kawanishi,
show the gentlemen the door.

108
00:08:55,594 --> 00:08:58,263
Leaving already?

109
00:08:59,848 --> 00:09:01,099
Pardon us, Mrs. Gondo.

110
00:09:01,266 --> 00:09:04,311
Why isn't my husband
seeing you out?

111
00:09:10,358 --> 00:09:11,860
If you'll excuse us.

112
00:09:31,129 --> 00:09:34,925
What just happened?

113
00:09:35,300 --> 00:09:36,718
Nothing.

114
00:09:36,885 --> 00:09:39,137
It certainly didn't look
that way.

115
00:09:40,305 --> 00:09:43,183
Don't worry.
You wouldn't understand.

116
00:09:43,350 --> 00:09:45,060
It's business.

117
00:09:45,227 --> 00:09:49,606
You always say that
to keep me quiet.

118
00:09:53,026 --> 00:09:55,362
What's he got up his sleeve?

119
00:09:55,737 --> 00:10:00,325
You're his right-hand man.
You must know his plan.

120
00:10:00,742 --> 00:10:05,413
The son of a bitch, kicking us out!
Must be pretty sure of himself.

121
00:10:05,580 --> 00:10:07,833
What's he up to?

122
00:10:08,917 --> 00:10:10,502
Why didn't you
ask him yourself?

123
00:10:10,669 --> 00:10:12,504
Don't be a wise ass.

124
00:10:13,004 --> 00:10:14,923
You may not know his scheme,

125
00:10:15,090 --> 00:10:18,927
but help us stop him
and we'll make you a director.

126
00:10:20,762 --> 00:10:23,056
Please don't tempt me.

127
00:10:23,807 --> 00:10:27,269
You want to be his flunky forever?
Think it over.

128
00:10:50,834 --> 00:10:52,460
Jun, that's enough!

129
00:11:06,933 --> 00:11:08,935
They're furious.

130
00:11:11,980 --> 00:11:13,815
Will we be all right?

131
00:11:14,107 --> 00:11:15,901
Wait and see.

132
00:11:16,568 --> 00:11:19,196
A new round of feuding?

133
00:11:19,988 --> 00:11:21,740
Sure looks like it.

134
00:11:22,407 --> 00:11:28,163
They want to kick me out,
but I've taken measures.

135
00:11:28,330 --> 00:11:32,125
They'd have to be pretty serious.
What measures?

136
00:11:33,710 --> 00:11:36,588
I don't want to say
until everything's in place.

137
00:11:37,172 --> 00:11:39,841
Then I'll do them all in.

138
00:11:43,136 --> 00:11:45,347
Jun really takes after you.

139
00:11:46,348 --> 00:11:48,934
You both love blood sport.

140
00:11:49,100 --> 00:11:50,852
Jun!

141
00:11:51,269 --> 00:11:55,440
Oh, Shinichi, it’s you.
- I’m the sheriff this time.

142
00:11:56,775 --> 00:11:59,778
Jun, is it your turn
to be the outlaw?

143
00:12:00,612 --> 00:12:04,616
Well, don't run.
Hide and then ambush the sheriff.

144
00:12:05,659 --> 00:12:08,161
A man must kill or be killed.

145
00:12:08,328 --> 00:12:10,205
Now go. And don’t lose.

146
00:12:16,127 --> 00:12:18,964
- You get worse by the day.
- What do you mean?

147
00:12:19,297 --> 00:12:21,258
Your attitude.

148
00:12:22,217 --> 00:12:25,345
Success isn't worth
losing your humanity.

149
00:12:25,512 --> 00:12:27,430
A woman can't understand.

150
00:12:27,597 --> 00:12:30,433
This isn't about wanting
to become president.

151
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,978
I just want
to make shoes my way.

152
00:12:39,150 --> 00:12:40,694
Yes, it is.

153
00:12:41,945 --> 00:12:44,239
Osaka Hotel?
Did you call Osaka?

154
00:12:44,406 --> 00:12:45,991
One moment.

155
00:12:46,783 --> 00:12:47,867
Hello?

156
00:12:48,034 --> 00:12:51,329
Room 310, please.
Gondo calling.

157
00:12:54,291 --> 00:12:58,461
Hello. It’s me.
How’d it go? All settled?

158
00:12:59,587 --> 00:13:03,341
How much?
Within my limit?

159
00:13:03,842 --> 00:13:05,844
Great work!

160
00:13:07,095 --> 00:13:10,265
Good. Settle the deal.
And quickly.

161
00:13:10,515 --> 00:13:13,435
Call me again when it’s done.

162
00:13:13,601 --> 00:13:15,979
I'll send the deposit tonight.

163
00:13:17,522 --> 00:13:19,232
I'm counting on you.

164
00:13:21,693 --> 00:13:24,863
I want you to go to Osaka.
Book a flight.

165
00:13:26,990 --> 00:13:30,952
Use the phone upstairs.
I'm waiting for a call.

166
00:14:28,259 --> 00:14:30,053
Is everything all right?

167
00:14:31,262 --> 00:14:34,265
Something about this
scares me.

168
00:14:37,394 --> 00:14:39,938
Hello. Yes, it's me.

169
00:14:41,106 --> 00:14:43,817
It's all set?
Great, thanks.

170
00:14:43,983 --> 00:14:45,068
Just a moment.

171
00:14:45,235 --> 00:14:46,569
Well?

172
00:14:46,820 --> 00:14:47,987
10:00 p.m. flight.

173
00:14:48,154 --> 00:14:54,244
Kawanishi's off at 10:00
with a check for 50 million.

174
00:15:00,750 --> 00:15:02,460
Time for a toast.

175
00:15:06,881 --> 00:15:10,760
I kept you two in the dark,
but now I can talk about it.

176
00:15:10,927 --> 00:15:15,056
My share isn't 13%.

177
00:15:15,974 --> 00:15:19,227
I've bought 15% more
over the last three years,

178
00:15:19,769 --> 00:15:23,231
and just now on the phone,
I bought another 19%.

179
00:15:23,815 --> 00:15:26,317
That's 47%.

180
00:15:26,484 --> 00:15:29,904
Even with the Old Man,
they only have 46%.

181
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:34,075
It was a risky move,
but National Shoes is mine.

182
00:15:36,703 --> 00:15:39,998
But where did you get
that kind of money?

183
00:15:40,165 --> 00:15:44,169
I borrowed against everything,
including this house.

184
00:15:46,504 --> 00:15:50,175
It was hard work
raising 50 million.

185
00:15:51,342 --> 00:15:55,722
One yen less
and Osaka would have refused.

186
00:15:56,931 --> 00:16:00,435
Now I don't even own
the clothes on my back.

187
00:16:00,602 --> 00:16:02,896
I've bet my entire fortune.

188
00:16:04,063 --> 00:16:07,484
But wait a minute.

189
00:16:07,817 --> 00:16:09,736
This is just
the deposit, isn't it?

190
00:16:10,195 --> 00:16:14,532
That's usually one third.
Where's the other 100 million?

191
00:16:14,699 --> 00:16:18,661
If I gain control of the company,
I'll get the rest.

192
00:16:25,710 --> 00:16:29,964
In shock?
Have a drink.

193
00:16:33,218 --> 00:16:34,552
Excuse me.

194
00:16:35,553 --> 00:16:38,973
Have you seen my boy, Shinichi?

195
00:16:39,140 --> 00:16:41,768
He and Jun are outside.
What is it?

196
00:16:41,976 --> 00:16:44,354
I brought this for him.

197
00:16:47,023 --> 00:16:48,024
I"ll call Jun.

198
00:16:48,942 --> 00:16:51,736
Aoki, drive Kawanishi
to the airport.

199
00:16:51,903 --> 00:16:53,738
My flight's at 10:00.

200
00:17:00,537 --> 00:17:02,455
Yes, this is Gondo.

201
00:17:03,373 --> 00:17:07,919
What?
You've kidnapped my son?

202
00:17:08,878 --> 00:17:10,004
What kind of joke is this?

203
00:17:10,171 --> 00:17:12,048
It's not a joke.

204
00:17:12,465 --> 00:17:13,591
Listen.

205
00:17:14,300 --> 00:17:16,344
I have your son.

206
00:17:16,511 --> 00:17:19,430
If you do as I say,
['ll let him live.

207
00:17:19,597 --> 00:17:21,474
Get 30 million yen.

208
00:17:21,641 --> 00:17:23,101
Thirty million?

209
00:17:23,268 --> 00:17:25,395
No consecutive serial numbers.

210
00:17:25,562 --> 00:17:28,273
- One thousand 10,000-yen notes —
- Wait a second!

211
00:17:30,441 --> 00:17:34,195
<i>- One thousand —
- 10,000-yen notes.</i>

212
00:17:34,362 --> 00:17:37,282
<i>Three thousand 5,000-yen notes,</i>

213
00:17:37,490 --> 00:17:39,951
and five thousand 1,000-yen notes.

214
00:17:40,118 --> 00:17:41,452
Total: 30 million yen.

215
00:17:41,619 --> 00:17:42,579
Thirty million!

216
00:17:42,745 --> 00:17:47,083
Have it ready by tomorrow.
I'll have more details then.

217
00:17:47,250 --> 00:17:49,627
If you love your son,
don't call the police.

218
00:17:49,794 --> 00:17:51,296
No, of course not.

219
00:17:51,462 --> 00:17:53,965
So long, Mr. Gondo.

220
00:17:58,261 --> 00:18:01,639
Thirty million yen?
Just hurry and pay it!

221
00:18:01,806 --> 00:18:02,682
Get Jun back!

222
00:18:02,849 --> 00:18:04,350
Calm down!

223
00:18:05,643 --> 00:18:09,105
I'll get him back,
no matter what it costs.

224
00:18:10,231 --> 00:18:12,275
I can raise more money later.

225
00:18:13,318 --> 00:18:15,236
I'll call the police.

226
00:18:15,653 --> 00:18:18,698
Fool!
You'll put Jun in danger.

227
00:18:19,866 --> 00:18:24,537
- Kingo!
- Don't worry! It'll be all right!

228
00:18:26,748 --> 00:18:29,584
Mom, did you call me?

229
00:18:29,834 --> 00:18:31,085
Jun!

230
00:18:39,677 --> 00:18:41,512
What's the matter, Mom?

231
00:18:43,139 --> 00:18:44,849
What's going on?

232
00:18:46,059 --> 00:18:48,686
What kind of sick joke is this?

233
00:18:56,361 --> 00:18:58,863
Jun, where's Shinichi?

234
00:18:59,030 --> 00:19:02,617
Don't know. I hid like you said,
but he never came.

235
00:19:02,784 --> 00:19:04,285
Some sheriff!

236
00:19:05,495 --> 00:19:08,998
Wait, Shinichi was wearing
Jun's outfit.

237
00:19:09,165 --> 00:19:11,250
Even I got them mixed up.

238
00:19:13,127 --> 00:19:14,504
Shinichi!

239
00:19:17,715 --> 00:19:19,092
Call the police.

240
00:19:19,258 --> 00:19:22,261
No, you can't!
What'll happen to Shinichi?

241
00:19:22,428 --> 00:19:24,347
The kidnapper will realize
he has the wrong kid.

242
00:19:24,514 --> 00:19:27,642
A chauffeur can’t pay a ransom.
He’ll let him go.

243
00:19:27,809 --> 00:19:31,104
But I won't let him
get away with this.

244
00:19:41,739 --> 00:19:45,076
- Is that the police?
- No.

245
00:19:45,243 --> 00:19:46,744
A department store delivery.

246
00:19:47,286 --> 00:19:48,913
Odd at this hour.

247
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,667
What the hell's
taking them so long?

248
00:19:54,919 --> 00:19:58,214
Aoki, don't worry yourself
to death.

249
00:19:58,381 --> 00:20:00,842
Any way you look at it,
Shinichi has to be safe.

250
00:20:09,642 --> 00:20:12,437
Kingo, it's the police.

251
00:20:13,604 --> 00:20:17,191
<i>Madam, would you mind
closing all the drapes?</i>

252
00:20:33,791 --> 00:20:36,002
I'm Chief Inspector Tokura.

253
00:20:36,878 --> 00:20:40,214
From the streets below,
if he has a telescope,

254
00:20:41,716 --> 00:20:45,052
the kidnapper can see
this entire room.

255
00:20:45,678 --> 00:20:48,514
Any other phones in the house?
- One upstairs.

256
00:20:48,681 --> 00:20:51,434
- Are they listed?
- Just this one.

257
00:20:51,642 --> 00:20:53,144
The phone's over there, guys.

258
00:20:53,311 --> 00:20:56,481
We"ll install a listening device
to record his calls.

259
00:20:58,649 --> 00:21:02,153
But, Inspector,
I doubt he'll call again

260
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,489
when he realizes
he has the wrong child.

261
00:21:04,655 --> 00:21:07,909
He may still think
he has your son.

262
00:21:08,075 --> 00:21:11,162
Broadcast the mistake
on radio and TV.

263
00:21:11,329 --> 00:21:15,374
If we do, he'll know
you contacted us.

264
00:21:15,541 --> 00:21:16,751
So?

265
00:21:16,918 --> 00:21:19,504
He warned you
he'd kill the boy if you did.

266
00:21:19,670 --> 00:21:21,839
That's when he thought
it was my son.

267
00:21:22,006 --> 00:21:24,175
He has to return a child
whose father can't pay.

268
00:21:24,383 --> 00:21:26,093
You may think so,

269
00:21:27,011 --> 00:21:29,305
but he may not.

270
00:21:38,105 --> 00:21:41,359
Kidnapping cases are difficult.

271
00:21:42,401 --> 00:21:45,321
The hostage is his protection.

272
00:21:45,905 --> 00:21:48,699
On our way here
the chief told us,

273
00:21:49,075 --> 00:21:53,746
“Save the child first,
then catch the kidnapper.”

274
00:21:56,040 --> 00:22:00,127
We must be especially careful
in this case.

275
00:22:00,878 --> 00:22:05,800
The highest ransom ever demanded
was two million,

276
00:22:05,967 --> 00:22:08,386
with most in the range
of 200,000 to 300,000.

277
00:22:09,095 --> 00:22:11,347
Thirty million
is an extraordinary sum.

278
00:22:11,514 --> 00:22:15,268
<i>The kidnapper's extreme.</i>

279
00:22:15,434 --> 00:22:17,687
He may be mentally disturbed.

280
00:22:22,441 --> 00:22:24,902
Are you the boy's father?

281
00:22:25,528 --> 00:22:29,782
He's a widower.
It's his only child too.

282
00:22:29,949 --> 00:22:32,410
Will you get my boy back?

283
00:22:33,744 --> 00:22:35,705
<i>We'll do everything we can.</i>

284
00:22:36,747 --> 00:22:38,749
What will you do next?

285
00:22:38,916 --> 00:22:42,378
Wait for his next move.
It's all we can do.

286
00:22:43,421 --> 00:22:46,757
I know how hard
it is just to wait,

287
00:22:46,924 --> 00:22:49,468
but it's safest for the boy.

288
00:22:50,511 --> 00:22:51,929
All set.

289
00:22:52,096 --> 00:22:56,225
Have the phone company trace
all incoming calls.

290
00:22:56,392 --> 00:22:57,977
This way, please.

291
00:22:59,061 --> 00:23:02,773
- Where's your son, Mrs. Gondo?
- In the dining room.

292
00:23:03,065 --> 00:23:06,986
Taguchi, ask him everything
about the kidnapping.

293
00:23:08,154 --> 00:23:10,197
No, wait.
Nakao, you do it.

294
00:23:10,698 --> 00:23:15,077
Taguchi might frighten the boy.

295
00:23:17,246 --> 00:23:19,582
Taguchi,
you talk to the father.

296
00:23:19,957 --> 00:23:22,418
Do you have a recent picture?

297
00:23:22,585 --> 00:23:24,837
Yes. I'll get it.

298
00:23:32,261 --> 00:23:35,389
I should drive Mr. Kawanishi
to the airport soon.

299
00:23:35,973 --> 00:23:39,185
You're in no shape to drive.
Kawanishi, take a cab.

300
00:23:44,148 --> 00:23:46,984
Wait. It may be
the kidnapper.

301
00:23:47,151 --> 00:23:48,653
Upstairs phone.

302
00:23:48,861 --> 00:23:51,447
Keep him talking.

303
00:23:51,614 --> 00:23:53,658
We may be able to trace him.

304
00:23:55,534 --> 00:23:56,994
Go ahead.

305
00:24:01,999 --> 00:24:05,169
Hello. Gondo speaking.

306
00:24:07,838 --> 00:24:10,967
Hello. Gondo speaking.

307
00:24:13,678 --> 00:24:15,513
I got the wrong boy.

308
00:24:16,138 --> 00:24:18,766
But before you start
celebrating, listen:

309
00:24:18,933 --> 00:24:22,436
I don't care whose boy it is.
You're still paying.

310
00:24:22,603 --> 00:24:24,689
You can't be serious.
Why me?

311
00:24:24,897 --> 00:24:26,440
<i>Don't ask questions.</i>

312
00:24:26,983 --> 00:24:31,028
It's simple:
Pay the 30 million or the boy dies.

313
00:24:31,195 --> 00:24:32,530
This is absurd!

314
00:24:32,697 --> 00:24:35,616
Exactly. It's absurd.

315
00:24:37,284 --> 00:24:40,037
Taking the wrong boy
was a lucky break.

316
00:24:40,705 --> 00:24:43,958
Did you know, Mr. Gondo,
that it's only extortion

317
00:24:44,709 --> 00:24:49,338
when you threaten
a person or his kin?

318
00:24:49,547 --> 00:24:52,883
In other words,
this doesn't count.

319
00:24:53,551 --> 00:24:57,054
But you have to pay anyway.

320
00:24:57,304 --> 00:25:00,474
You're a fool to pay,
but pay you must.

321
00:25:00,641 --> 00:25:04,895
Who says I'll pay?
I absolutely will not!

322
00:25:05,104 --> 00:25:06,689
You will.

323
00:25:07,606 --> 00:25:09,859
You won't let him die.

324
00:25:10,026 --> 00:25:12,445
<i>You don't have the guts, Mr. Gondo.</i>

325
00:25:25,583 --> 00:25:27,334
He's a monster.

326
00:25:27,585 --> 00:25:29,920
Smartest crook I ever saw.

327
00:25:30,087 --> 00:25:36,093
Kidnap any child off the street,
then pick a millionaire to squeeze.

328
00:25:36,385 --> 00:25:38,554
And he's right:
It wouldn't be extortion,

329
00:25:38,971 --> 00:25:40,765
or even kidnapping for ransom.

330
00:25:40,931 --> 00:25:44,935
Just simple kidnapping.
He'd get five years at most.

331
00:25:47,938 --> 00:25:49,523
This is no joke.

332
00:25:54,111 --> 00:25:59,366
| won’t let him
laugh at me like this.

333
00:25:59,533 --> 00:26:03,412
Inspector, he's not just
after my money.

334
00:26:03,579 --> 00:26:07,750
He wants to humiliate me,
see me suffer,

335
00:26:08,417 --> 00:26:13,089
make me throw away
my hard-earned money!

336
00:26:13,380 --> 00:26:16,133
He wants to make
a laughingstock out of me.

337
00:26:16,550 --> 00:26:20,346
I'll say this loud and clear:
I won't let him. I won't pay.

338
00:26:21,430 --> 00:26:23,808
I'll spell it out next time he calls.

339
00:26:25,976 --> 00:26:28,062
No ransom! Never!

340
00:26:43,410 --> 00:26:46,163
Ow! Mom, that hurts.

341
00:26:47,623 --> 00:26:49,125
Put Jun to bed.

342
00:26:49,291 --> 00:26:52,670
I'm not sleepy.
I'll wait for Shinichi.

343
00:26:56,132 --> 00:27:01,387
He understands very well
what's happened.

344
00:27:02,096 --> 00:27:06,142
He feels responsible for it.

345
00:27:07,101 --> 00:27:10,104
I feel the same way.

346
00:27:10,271 --> 00:27:14,233
No one's responsible.
The man is a maniac!

347
00:27:15,943 --> 00:27:19,113
But Shinichi was kidnapped
in your son's place. That's why I —

348
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:23,659
So you think
he should pay the ransom?

349
00:27:23,868 --> 00:27:26,704
You know the position
Mr. Gondo is in.

350
00:27:26,871 --> 00:27:31,876
But he was willing
to pay for his own son.

351
00:27:32,334 --> 00:27:34,044
He said he could raise
more money later.

352
00:27:34,211 --> 00:27:36,755
How? From where?

353
00:27:38,883 --> 00:27:41,594
He's mortgaged everything.

354
00:27:42,386 --> 00:27:46,098
He couldn't raise more money
to save his own life.

355
00:27:46,265 --> 00:27:48,976
Giving 30 million
to a madman —

356
00:27:49,185 --> 00:27:50,978
That's enough!

357
00:28:00,070 --> 00:28:02,573
- Let's go to bed.
- But I -

358
00:28:02,740 --> 00:28:05,451
You don't have to sleep.
Just go to your room.

359
00:28:25,221 --> 00:28:26,847
Inspector.

360
00:28:28,432 --> 00:28:32,436
Can you guarantee
the boy's safety if Mr. Gondo pays?

361
00:28:34,647 --> 00:28:37,942
The boy may already be dead,

362
00:28:38,108 --> 00:28:40,152
or he may be killed afterwards.

363
00:28:40,319 --> 00:28:42,363
Then what's the sense
in paying?

364
00:28:42,529 --> 00:28:43,864
That's true.

365
00:28:44,114 --> 00:28:47,701
But if he's alive,
paying may make the difference.

366
00:28:47,910 --> 00:28:50,454
We can only hope it does.

367
00:28:53,791 --> 00:28:58,045
And what would
the kidnapper do if he isn't paid?

368
00:28:58,212 --> 00:29:00,506
Would he actually kill the boy?

369
00:29:01,799 --> 00:29:05,678
He seems intelligent,
from the way he talks.

370
00:29:06,136 --> 00:29:08,389
Killing a child
is a capital offense.

371
00:29:08,555 --> 00:29:12,393
I doubt he'd risk death
just because he wasn't paid.

372
00:29:12,559 --> 00:29:18,315
But as Mr. Gondo pointed out,
he seems obsessed.

373
00:29:19,149 --> 00:29:22,236
His cynical logic
betrays a sick mind.

374
00:29:22,987 --> 00:29:27,074
We must believe
he'll carry it through:

375
00:29:27,241 --> 00:29:30,869
If he's paid,
he'll return the child.

376
00:29:31,328 --> 00:29:35,708
If not, I'm afraid
he'll kill the child as threatened.

377
00:29:43,549 --> 00:29:45,843
This is a vicious case.

378
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,847
I'll ask the chief to deploy
the special investigation unit.

379
00:29:50,014 --> 00:29:53,475
See what you can find out here.

380
00:29:58,355 --> 00:30:03,986
Mr. Gondo, please alert us
before answering this phone.

381
00:30:11,577 --> 00:30:15,664
What about me?
Am I still going to Osaka?

382
00:30:16,582 --> 00:30:18,667
If I am, I'd better hurry.

383
00:30:23,005 --> 00:30:27,051
Why are you hesitating?
What's there to think about?

384
00:30:27,217 --> 00:30:30,220
Pay the ransom and we're ruined.
It's that simple.

385
00:30:31,221 --> 00:30:32,556
Go.

386
00:30:37,728 --> 00:30:40,898
I'm going,
no matter who's calling.

387
00:30:41,065 --> 00:30:43,150
All right, go.

388
00:30:46,487 --> 00:30:48,364
Kawanishi, wait!

389
00:30:51,867 --> 00:30:53,911
Inspector!

390
00:30:57,498 --> 00:30:59,750
Keep him talking
longer this time.

391
00:30:59,917 --> 00:31:01,585
Upstairs phone, okay?

392
00:31:09,968 --> 00:31:12,596
Hello. This is Gondo.

393
00:31:13,347 --> 00:31:16,767
<i>The boy's fine.
I'll let him talk to you.</i>

394
00:31:16,934 --> 00:31:19,186
Daddy? Are you there?

395
00:31:19,353 --> 00:31:20,854
Shinichi!

396
00:31:24,149 --> 00:31:26,985
Whether he lives or dies
depends on you.

397
00:31:27,152 --> 00:31:29,655
Think it over carefully.

398
00:31:30,322 --> 00:31:32,699
Good night, Mr. Gondo.

399
00:31:38,831 --> 00:31:40,791
He got away again.

400
00:31:45,421 --> 00:31:48,465
Please save my son!

401
00:31:50,217 --> 00:31:55,472
Asking you to pay
that kind of money —

402
00:31:55,681 --> 00:32:00,269
Until I heard his voice,

403
00:32:00,727 --> 00:32:06,483
I just couldn't
bring myself to do it.

404
00:32:06,650 --> 00:32:09,194
But now I'm begging you.

405
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:14,992
Once he's safe, the police
will get your money back.

406
00:32:15,409 --> 00:32:18,287
If you could just lend it
to me for now,

407
00:32:18,495 --> 00:32:23,125
I'll do everything you want
until the day I die.

408
00:32:23,709 --> 00:32:25,669
I'll make Shinichi work too.
Anything you want.

409
00:32:25,836 --> 00:32:29,631
Stop it! Get up!
Damn it, stand up!

410
00:32:29,798 --> 00:32:31,258
Please save Shinichi!

411
00:32:31,425 --> 00:32:33,719
Stand up!
Please, stop it!

412
00:32:34,761 --> 00:32:40,017
I want to pay, but I can't.
You don't understand.

413
00:32:40,184 --> 00:32:42,519
I'm going, all right?

414
00:32:43,145 --> 00:32:44,688
Wait.

415
00:32:47,649 --> 00:32:50,611
Get up.
Please get up.

416
00:32:50,777 --> 00:32:55,032
He won’t let your son die.

417
00:32:55,199 --> 00:32:58,619
I'll ask on your behalf.
Put your mind at ease.

418
00:32:58,785 --> 00:33:00,704
It'll be all right.

419
00:33:04,917 --> 00:33:06,710
Isn't Shinichi back yet?

420
00:33:11,590 --> 00:33:13,550
Postpone Osaka until tomorrow.

421
00:33:13,717 --> 00:33:15,636
I said we'll wait!

422
00:33:24,394 --> 00:33:27,689
Then'll return this
for the time being.

423
00:33:42,496 --> 00:33:45,249
Excuse me. I'm tired.

424
00:34:21,243 --> 00:34:25,163
Pardon me, but could you
keep the curtains closed?

425
00:34:25,330 --> 00:34:26,957
Oh, sorry.

426
00:34:34,631 --> 00:34:36,508
You all slept here?

427
00:34:36,675 --> 00:34:38,844
No, the Boss and I —

428
00:34:39,011 --> 00:34:40,345
Bos'n?

429
00:34:41,471 --> 00:34:43,807
Bos'n is head
of the detective squad.

430
00:34:44,766 --> 00:34:49,605
In Yokohama, much of our work
is connected with the harbor.

431
00:34:49,771 --> 00:34:52,691
“Bos'n” fits him perfectly.
He's a real slave driver.

432
00:34:52,858 --> 00:34:55,193
He dragged me out
all last night.

433
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,447
You're the one
who dragged me out.

434
00:34:58,614 --> 00:35:00,949
Sneaking over walls,

435
00:35:01,116 --> 00:35:05,329
hiding until morning, not knowing
if we're detectives or thieves.

436
00:35:08,290 --> 00:35:10,959
Last night the chief
set up a special investigation.

437
00:35:11,126 --> 00:35:16,381
We can use the whole
prefectural police force.

438
00:35:16,548 --> 00:35:21,845
Also, though the kidnapper
claims it isn't extortion,

439
00:35:22,012 --> 00:35:26,183
he's driven you into a corner.

440
00:35:26,350 --> 00:35:32,814
He's exploiting your suffering,
and that's “kidnapping for gain.”

441
00:35:32,981 --> 00:35:36,026
I's a maximum
of 15 years' imprisonment.

442
00:35:37,110 --> 00:35:40,030
His being in prison
won't stop me from going under.

443
00:35:41,740 --> 00:35:44,368
His deadline is today.

444
00:35:46,036 --> 00:35:48,914
I thought it over all night.

445
00:35:49,873 --> 00:35:51,708
This is my decision.

446
00:36:00,592 --> 00:36:06,723
The boy's father wants me
to lend him the money.

447
00:36:07,557 --> 00:36:11,561
He says once his boy's safe,
you'll get my money back.

448
00:36:12,396 --> 00:36:18,068
But even if you guarantee me that,
I won't pay the ransom.

449
00:36:18,610 --> 00:36:20,779
I'd get it back too late.

450
00:36:21,530 --> 00:36:27,536
Without that money now,
I'll lose everything.

451
00:36:28,495 --> 00:36:29,913
Please understand me.

452
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:34,292
This is who I am.
My work is a part of me.

453
00:36:34,918 --> 00:36:37,295
I'd be as good as dead
without it.

454
00:36:40,090 --> 00:36:45,262
You may think it's heartless,
but I refuse to pay.

455
00:36:48,598 --> 00:36:50,434
That's not true.

456
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,728
I know he'll pay.

457
00:36:52,894 --> 00:36:54,438
Just stop it.

458
00:36:54,771 --> 00:36:59,359
I won't — no, I can't pay,
no matter what you say.

459
00:36:59,526 --> 00:37:02,446
I told you why last night,
yet still you persist.

460
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,450
Listen: You know
what'll happen if I pay?

461
00:37:06,616 --> 00:37:08,952
I'll be penniless — no, worse.

462
00:37:09,119 --> 00:37:13,081
I'll be saddled with debt
and forced out of the firm.

463
00:37:15,208 --> 00:37:19,504
You'll be all right.
You can start over.

464
00:37:19,713 --> 00:37:22,424
You don't know
the first thing about poverty.

465
00:37:23,133 --> 00:37:27,304
From the day you were born
you've had big houses and cars,

466
00:37:27,471 --> 00:37:29,598
servants tending
to your every whim.

467
00:37:29,765 --> 00:37:32,058
Your whole life has been luxury.

468
00:37:33,810 --> 00:37:36,646
Maybe I could start over,
but you — never!

469
00:37:37,731 --> 00:37:41,401
Yes, I could.
I don't care about luxury.

470
00:37:41,568 --> 00:37:43,779
It's all you've ever known.

471
00:37:43,945 --> 00:37:47,324
That's why you can tell me
to pay 30 million yen.

472
00:37:47,491 --> 00:37:51,703
It means nothing to you.
You're spoiled.

473
00:37:52,412 --> 00:37:54,331
It's not that.

474
00:37:54,498 --> 00:37:57,334
Don't you feel anything
for poor Aoki?

475
00:37:57,501 --> 00:38:02,088
Of course! It takes all my strength
not to cave in to his begging.

476
00:38:02,839 --> 00:38:05,050
I'd pay in a second
if I could.

477
00:38:05,217 --> 00:38:09,179
But I can't sacrifice
everything for him.

478
00:38:09,387 --> 00:38:14,017
There's you, and Jun,
and my own survival.

479
00:38:14,768 --> 00:38:16,478
This is ridiculous!

480
00:38:16,937 --> 00:38:20,524
There are plenty of people
richer than I am. Why me?

481
00:38:20,690 --> 00:38:22,275
And at a time like this!

482
00:38:22,442 --> 00:38:26,488
It would be suicide to pay.
Why should 1?

483
00:38:29,324 --> 00:38:31,201
I know.

484
00:38:32,577 --> 00:38:35,914
But there's no other choice.

485
00:38:36,998 --> 00:38:40,210
Aoki has nobody
to ask but you.

486
00:38:40,877 --> 00:38:44,047
I'm asking too.
So is Jun.

487
00:38:44,214 --> 00:38:49,719
Enough! Nobody has the right
to ask this of me.

488
00:38:51,763 --> 00:38:55,684
That's final.
I'm not paying any ransom.

489
00:39:05,694 --> 00:39:07,988
Kawanishi, you're just in time.

490
00:39:08,321 --> 00:39:10,532
Take this check
and get to Osaka.

491
00:39:13,493 --> 00:39:17,247
Well, I've been thinking it over.

492
00:39:17,414 --> 00:39:20,292
- What?
- About that check.

493
00:39:20,917 --> 00:39:25,088
Whether I should take it or not.

494
00:39:26,089 --> 00:39:28,592
You said there was nothing
to think about!

495
00:39:29,426 --> 00:39:31,928
Well, I was confused.

496
00:39:33,054 --> 00:39:35,348
But just hear me out.

497
00:39:36,850 --> 00:39:40,395
If I go to Osaka
and close this deal,

498
00:39:40,562 --> 00:39:42,439
you'll take over
National Shoes.

499
00:39:43,315 --> 00:39:47,777
But you'd be hated by the public
for sacrificing a child!

500
00:39:48,820 --> 00:39:52,157
You'd be ruined.
No one would buy your shoes.

501
00:39:52,365 --> 00:39:55,535
That's enough!
You're not paid to think!

502
00:39:55,702 --> 00:39:57,454
Stop arguing and go.

503
00:39:57,621 --> 00:40:00,040
Please think this through.

504
00:40:01,124 --> 00:40:04,169
Think how
Mrs. Gondo must feel.

505
00:40:08,548 --> 00:40:14,095
After all, wasn't her dowry
the basis of your fortune?

506
00:40:14,930 --> 00:40:17,682
She has a say in this,

507
00:40:17,849 --> 00:40:19,559
and she wants you to pay.

508
00:40:19,726 --> 00:40:21,686
And destroy myself?

509
00:40:21,853 --> 00:40:25,482
I know how much
this money means to you.

510
00:40:26,566 --> 00:40:29,194
But a human life means more.

511
00:40:29,361 --> 00:40:32,197
We’re talking
about a helpless child —

512
00:40:32,739 --> 00:40:35,533
“Human life”?
“Helpless child”?

513
00:40:36,159 --> 00:40:38,912
I've never heard such words
from your lips.

514
00:40:39,079 --> 00:40:43,500
What happened
to the cold-blooded businessman?

515
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,378
When were you reborn?

516
00:40:47,921 --> 00:40:49,965
What happened
after you left last night?

517
00:40:50,131 --> 00:40:52,884
Nothing happened. I just...

518
00:40:54,761 --> 00:41:00,058
If my takeover succeeds,
you'll be made a director.

519
00:41:00,934 --> 00:41:05,397
Knowing that, you were ready
to go last night,

520
00:41:05,563 --> 00:41:09,025
arguing with Reiko, bad-mouthing
the cops, even pestering me.

521
00:41:10,318 --> 00:41:13,613
Yet today —

522
00:41:13,863 --> 00:41:15,907
You want to sabotage
my takeover, don’t you?

523
00:41:16,074 --> 00:41:17,701
No. I just —

524
00:41:17,867 --> 00:41:22,038
Answer me! If I pay the ransom,
the deal goes up in smoke.

525
00:41:22,664 --> 00:41:24,708
That's what you want!

526
00:41:26,543 --> 00:41:28,545
What are you up to?

527
00:41:29,879 --> 00:41:31,965
Shall I answer for you?

528
00:41:32,382 --> 00:41:34,634
If this deal fails, so do I,

529
00:41:34,801 --> 00:41:37,053
and three men stand to celebrate.

530
00:41:38,013 --> 00:41:41,725
Bastard, you sold me out
to those three, didn't you?

531
00:41:44,477 --> 00:41:45,520
Yes.

532
00:41:45,687 --> 00:41:48,064
- You told them about Osaka?
- Everything.

533
00:41:48,231 --> 00:41:50,025
Worthless scum!

534
00:41:50,817 --> 00:41:56,239
Maybe I am.
But let me have my say.

535
00:41:57,073 --> 00:41:59,576
You weakened last night —

536
00:41:59,743 --> 00:42:03,246
enough to pay the ransom.

537
00:42:04,330 --> 00:42:08,418
What would happen to me then?
If I stake my life on you, I have nothing.

538
00:42:08,752 --> 00:42:12,714
You'd be selling out
your loyal servant of 10 years.

539
00:42:13,506 --> 00:42:16,593
What I did was self-defense.

540
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:18,470
Get out!

541
00:42:19,429 --> 00:42:20,680
I'll go.

542
00:42:22,098 --> 00:42:25,727
But you'll be the next
to hear those very words.

543
00:42:25,894 --> 00:42:29,105
Baba and the Old Man
are talking as we speak.

544
00:42:29,314 --> 00:42:34,152
But I still have this,
so I can still kick you all out.

545
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:36,279
I wonder.

546
00:42:36,780 --> 00:42:40,825
Maybe the kidnapper's right.
You don't have the guts to let him die.

547
00:42:40,992 --> 00:42:43,578
Get out!

548
00:43:08,478 --> 00:43:10,271
Mr. Gondo.

549
00:43:11,648 --> 00:43:14,692
I know it's late
to be saying this...

550
00:43:15,985 --> 00:43:20,198
but you have the right
to protect your own livelihood.

551
00:43:21,282 --> 00:43:24,035
It's our duty to help you.

552
00:43:24,702 --> 00:43:28,414
We want to save the child,

553
00:43:28,665 --> 00:43:31,376
but not by sacrificing you.

554
00:43:33,294 --> 00:43:36,881
Still, we hope
you'll do one thing:

555
00:43:37,090 --> 00:43:40,802
When the kidnapper calls,
say you'll pay.

556
00:43:41,010 --> 00:43:43,138
You only have
to say the words.

557
00:43:43,304 --> 00:43:46,850
Just ask him when and where.

558
00:43:48,351 --> 00:43:51,521
We'll take it from there.

559
00:43:57,944 --> 00:43:59,863
Forgive me, boss.

560
00:44:00,196 --> 00:44:03,992
I didn't realize how unreasonable
my request was.

561
00:44:04,159 --> 00:44:08,329
Please don't worry
about Shinichi.

562
00:44:10,999 --> 00:44:15,420
I think the kidnapper
was just bluffing.

563
00:44:16,212 --> 00:44:19,549
No human being
could kill an innocent child.

564
00:44:20,967 --> 00:44:24,596
Anyway, Shinichi
is a clever boy.

565
00:44:26,723 --> 00:44:30,059
I'm sure he'll find
a chance to escape.

566
00:45:16,606 --> 00:45:18,942
Where's Mr. Gondo?

567
00:45:24,656 --> 00:45:26,324
Mr. Gondo!

568
00:45:27,825 --> 00:45:29,953
Phone! Hurry!

569
00:45:47,887 --> 00:45:50,556
Hello. This is Gondo.

570
00:45:51,099 --> 00:45:54,477
Mr. Gondo, you're not
up to any tricks, are you?

571
00:45:55,144 --> 00:45:56,145
What do you mean?

572
00:45:56,312 --> 00:46:00,608
Curtains closed in broad daylight.
A first time.

573
00:46:01,150 --> 00:46:03,945
- You can see us?
- Quite well,

574
00:46:04,112 --> 00:46:07,282
You're on a hilltop.

575
00:46:07,448 --> 00:46:09,242
/It's hot as hell down here.

576
00:46:09,409 --> 00:46:12,870
An inferno.
Feels like 105 degrees.

577
00:46:13,037 --> 00:46:15,999
But you must be nice and cool
with your air-conditioning.

578
00:46:16,833 --> 00:46:21,212
! understand the closed windows,
but why the drapes?

579
00:46:21,379 --> 00:46:23,172
What are you up to?

580
00:46:24,716 --> 00:46:26,384
Nothing.

581
00:46:27,510 --> 00:46:29,345
Nothing?

582
00:46:30,221 --> 00:46:34,350
<i>People always say that
when they're up to something.</i>

583
00:46:37,312 --> 00:46:39,647
Then I'll open the drapes
and prove it to you.

584
00:46:50,074 --> 00:46:52,869
Good. I can see you now.

585
00:46:53,036 --> 00:46:55,872
Your wife, the chauffeur.

586
00:46:56,039 --> 00:46:58,583
Just the three of you?

587
00:47:00,084 --> 00:47:01,461
That's right.

588
00:47:02,003 --> 00:47:04,255
Well, then, let's continue.

589
00:47:04,464 --> 00:47:07,091
<i>Have you decided to pay,
Mr. Gondo?</i>

590
00:47:10,303 --> 00:47:11,596
I have no choice.
I'll pay.

591
00:47:13,598 --> 00:47:16,225
And is the money ready?

592
00:47:16,976 --> 00:47:20,980
It will be by evening.
But only if the boy's unharmed.

593
00:47:21,147 --> 00:47:24,067
- You heard him.
- No, I want to see him.

594
00:47:25,276 --> 00:47:28,237
<i>- And if I refuse?
- I won't pay. That's final.</i>

595
00:47:28,404 --> 00:47:30,656
Sounds fishy.

596
00:47:32,575 --> 00:47:36,329
Well, I'll think it over,
Mr. Gondo.

597
00:47:49,509 --> 00:47:50,927
Stay there!

598
00:47:51,427 --> 00:47:54,847
Be careful!
The kidnapper's watching.

599
00:47:55,014 --> 00:47:57,016
Damn.

600
00:47:57,809 --> 00:48:01,270
Just a little longer
and I could've traced it.

601
00:48:07,443 --> 00:48:10,446
Thank you, Mr. Gondo.

602
00:48:11,114 --> 00:48:15,118
By saying you'd pay,
you bought us more time.

603
00:48:15,701 --> 00:48:19,705
Your demand was also
very helpful.

604
00:48:20,081 --> 00:48:23,918
If he accepts it,
we can formulate a plan.

605
00:48:40,226 --> 00:48:42,311
Bank of Tokyo?

606
00:48:43,563 --> 00:48:47,358
This is Gondo of National Shoes.
The branch manager, please.

607
00:48:49,861 --> 00:48:51,487
Yes, hello.

608
00:48:51,654 --> 00:48:56,242
This is short notice.
Send over 30 million yen in cash.

609
00:48:57,827 --> 00:49:01,205
No new bills,
and no consecutive numbers.

610
00:49:01,372 --> 00:49:03,541
Sorry to trouble you,

611
00:49:03,708 --> 00:49:06,002
but I need
one thousand 10,000 notes,

612
00:49:06,919 --> 00:49:08,921
three thousand 5,000 notes,

613
00:49:09,088 --> 00:49:11,674
and five thousand 1,000 notes.

614
00:49:11,841 --> 00:49:14,594
Yes, right away.

615
00:49:15,011 --> 00:49:16,679
Thank you.

616
00:49:22,518 --> 00:49:24,270
That's enough.
Don't say anything.

617
00:49:34,489 --> 00:49:36,908
I don't know what to say.

618
00:49:37,492 --> 00:49:39,702
Enough.
Leave me alone.

619
00:49:53,883 --> 00:49:57,553
- What is it?
- Mom's crying.

620
00:50:15,238 --> 00:50:17,907
<i>Hello. This is Gondo.</i>

621
00:50:18,366 --> 00:50:21,577
Mr. Gondo, you're not
up to any tricks, are you?

622
00:50:24,580 --> 00:50:28,084
I hear a coin dropping.

623
00:50:28,251 --> 00:50:31,087
Check all the pay phones
in this area.

624
00:50:33,756 --> 00:50:38,010
The kidnapper's right.
One case holds 15 million yen.

625
00:50:40,429 --> 00:50:42,723
What a sight, eh?

626
00:50:47,603 --> 00:50:50,565
<i>Hello. This is Gondo.</i>

627
00:50:50,731 --> 00:50:52,316
Got the money?

628
00:50:53,150 --> 00:50:54,485
Yes, but —

629
00:50:54,652 --> 00:50:58,322
I accept your condition.
You'll see the boy first.

630
00:50:58,489 --> 00:51:00,283
<i>- When?
- Tomorrow.</i>

631
00:51:00,449 --> 00:51:02,577
We'll swap the boy
for the money.

632
00:51:02,743 --> 00:51:03,953
Where?

633
00:51:04,161 --> 00:51:07,790
Calm down and listen carefully.

634
00:51:09,959 --> 00:51:13,504
Get two briefcases,
less than 2.75 inches thick.

635
00:51:13,713 --> 00:51:16,132
The money should just barely fit.

636
00:51:16,299 --> 00:51:19,802
Close them tight but don't lock them:
I want ready access.

637
00:51:20,678 --> 00:51:25,308
Take them on tomorrow's
Kodama No. 2 express train.

638
00:51:26,267 --> 00:51:29,520
Understood? That's all.
- Where am [ going?

639
00:51:29,687 --> 00:51:32,565
Get on and you'll see,
Mr. Gondo.

640
00:51:38,654 --> 00:51:40,364
Bos'n,

641
00:51:40,531 --> 00:51:44,994
I doubt he's dumb enough
to make the exchange on the train.

642
00:51:46,245 --> 00:51:47,913
Will he try a station?

643
00:51:48,122 --> 00:51:52,168
That's risky, too.
I wouldn't try it if I were him.

644
00:51:54,837 --> 00:51:58,841
Two briefcases
under 2.75 inches thick.

645
00:52:00,301 --> 00:52:02,011
What's that all about?

646
00:52:02,178 --> 00:52:05,598
“Get on and you'll see.”
Shit.

647
00:52:09,352 --> 00:52:11,103
By the way, Bos'n...

648
00:52:12,563 --> 00:52:15,358
where should we hide these
in the cases?

649
00:52:15,733 --> 00:52:18,861
That's not a job for amateurs.
I'll call a specialist.

650
00:52:19,695 --> 00:52:21,739
What do you need?

651
00:52:24,075 --> 00:52:28,871
We want to find him
with these briefcases.

652
00:52:29,372 --> 00:52:33,209
We intentionally chose
an unusual style.

653
00:52:33,584 --> 00:52:37,713
They're so conspicuous,
he'll have to get rid of them.

654
00:52:38,381 --> 00:52:42,468
He'll have to bury them,
sink them, or burn them.

655
00:52:44,095 --> 00:52:46,305
If the powder
in this capsule gets wet,

656
00:52:46,472 --> 00:52:49,392
it gives off
a putrid smell.

657
00:52:50,559 --> 00:52:55,815
The powder in this pouch
emits a pink smoke when burnt.

658
00:52:57,233 --> 00:52:59,235
It's not much to go on,

659
00:52:59,402 --> 00:53:02,571
but it just might
give us a lead.

660
00:53:13,416 --> 00:53:15,668
Reiko!

661
00:53:17,878 --> 00:53:22,466
Would you find
my old tool kit for me?

662
00:53:26,220 --> 00:53:30,433
How long to record
just the 1,000-yen notes?

663
00:53:30,641 --> 00:53:35,438
At ten a minute,
that's 5,000 in 500 minutes.

664
00:53:35,771 --> 00:53:41,110
That's eight hours, 20 minutes.
Ten hours with breaks.

665
00:53:41,694 --> 00:53:45,364
Isn't that a waste of time?
I never notice serial numbers.

666
00:53:45,531 --> 00:53:48,784
We can't neglect
any possible means of finding him.

667
00:53:49,952 --> 00:53:54,623
When the boy's back safely,
I'll flush that rat out.

668
00:53:55,291 --> 00:53:57,793
I'd burn him alive.

669
00:53:58,002 --> 00:54:01,547
Fifteen years maximum?
To hell with that!

670
00:54:14,894 --> 00:54:17,938
The capsule should go here,

671
00:54:18,814 --> 00:54:21,901
and the pouch goes there.

672
00:54:38,125 --> 00:54:42,338
In the old days,
shoemakers made cases too.

673
00:54:44,256 --> 00:54:47,635
My training as an apprentice
comes in handy once again.

674
00:54:49,887 --> 00:54:52,139
It's like I'm starting over
already.

675
00:55:18,290 --> 00:55:20,709
He's really something.

676
00:55:21,126 --> 00:55:25,047
I waste no love on the rich,
since I grew up poor.

677
00:55:25,339 --> 00:55:28,634
At first I despised him,
but now...

678
00:55:36,892 --> 00:55:38,727
Excuse me.

679
00:55:45,359 --> 00:55:48,028
THE BOY'S NOT ON THE TRAIN

680
00:55:55,744 --> 00:55:57,955
This isn't a pleasure trip.

681
00:56:18,392 --> 00:56:21,270
Railway Telephone Service

682
00:56:21,437 --> 00:56:27,443
paging Mr. Kingo Gondo
of National Shoes.

683
00:56:27,610 --> 00:56:31,989
Please take your call
in the buffet car phone booth.

684
00:56:43,292 --> 00:56:45,544
- It's the kidnapper.
- What do we do?

685
00:56:46,545 --> 00:56:49,715
The next stop is Atami.
Will they do the switch there?

686
00:56:51,133 --> 00:56:52,760
Go get some coffee.

687
00:57:00,726 --> 00:57:02,102
I'm Mr. Gondo.

688
00:57:07,942 --> 00:57:08,901
Coffee.

689
00:57:17,785 --> 00:57:19,745
We just passed Kozu.

690
00:57:19,912 --> 00:57:21,330
Perfect

691
00:57:21,497 --> 00:57:22,915
Listen carefully.

692
00:57:23,082 --> 00:57:25,876
You'll cross
the Sakawa River in two minutes.

693
00:57:26,043 --> 00:57:28,504
<i>You'll see him
at the foot of the bridge.</i>

694
00:57:41,433 --> 00:57:42,726
Coffee.

695
00:58:01,704 --> 00:58:03,998
The boy's at the foot
of the next bridge.

696
00:58:04,164 --> 00:58:06,500
I'm to toss the money
at the other side.

697
00:58:06,667 --> 00:58:08,085
These windows don't open.

698
00:58:08,252 --> 00:58:10,546
He said the washroom windows
open 2.75 inches.

699
00:58:12,548 --> 00:58:14,717
Son of a bitch!
That explains it!

700
00:58:15,092 --> 00:58:19,263
There's no stop until Atami.
He'll get away clean.

701
00:58:19,430 --> 00:58:23,350
The bastard thought of everything.
A real monster.

702
00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:27,730
An emergency stop
would endanger the boy.

703
00:58:29,273 --> 00:58:32,943
He's got us from every angle.

704
00:58:33,110 --> 00:58:37,072
There must be two of them:
one with the kid, one to grab the money.

705
00:58:37,239 --> 00:58:40,284
We'll get a glimpse.
Which side is the boy on?

706
00:58:40,451 --> 00:58:43,412
- The left.
- You’ll toss the cases from here?

707
00:58:43,579 --> 00:58:46,206
Yes, from the washroom window.

708
00:58:46,373 --> 00:58:49,209
we’ll confirm it’s the boy
from here.

709
00:58:49,376 --> 00:58:51,128
You all split up
to take pictures.

710
00:58:51,295 --> 00:58:56,675
Still photos on the left,
8mm in the front and rear.

711
00:59:00,763 --> 00:59:04,725
The bridge is coming up.
Get a good look at the boy.

712
00:59:04,892 --> 00:59:08,854
I only know him from photos.
It could be a switch.

713
00:59:09,021 --> 00:59:11,565
Don't worry. I'm trading
my life for that boy.

714
00:59:11,732 --> 00:59:13,442
I won't make a mistake.

715
01:00:07,663 --> 01:00:09,414
Shinichi!

716
01:00:10,457 --> 01:00:11,792
Are you sure?

717
01:01:28,076 --> 01:01:30,579
We can't rest
until we find that kidnapper.

718
01:01:30,746 --> 01:01:33,874
For Mr. Gondo's sake,
be bloodhounds.

719
01:01:44,927 --> 01:01:46,929
Can you see
inside the living room?

720
01:01:47,095 --> 01:01:49,932
This is the best view so far.

721
01:01:51,934 --> 01:01:54,144
He may live around here.

722
01:01:54,311 --> 01:01:57,856
But would he use a phone
this close to home?

723
01:01:58,065 --> 01:01:59,816
Let's try the next one.

724
01:02:07,282 --> 01:02:11,787
The kidnapper's right.
That house gets on your nerves.

725
01:02:12,287 --> 01:02:15,165
As if it's looking down at us.

726
01:03:33,285 --> 01:03:36,705
CLEVER KIDNAPPER
USES EXPRESS TRAIN

727
01:03:39,374 --> 01:03:42,544
RANSOM FOR DRIVER'S SON
IS 30 MILLION YEN

728
01:03:42,711 --> 01:03:46,340
SHOE EXEC THROWS ENTIRE
FORTUNE OUT THE WINDOW

729
01:03:49,718 --> 01:03:53,347
ALL POLICE UNITS MOBILIZED

730
01:04:00,729 --> 01:04:06,151
<i>Police say money was not
the kidnapper's only motive.</i>

731
01:04:06,401 --> 01:04:10,655
His phone calls
have a taunting tone,

732
01:04:10,822 --> 01:04:15,285
suggesting extraordinary
hatred for Mr. Gondo.

733
01:04:15,577 --> 01:04:18,747
The kidnapper wanted
not only to steal money,

734
01:04:18,914 --> 01:04:22,751
but also to torment and ridicule
Mr. Gondo in the process.

735
01:04:22,918 --> 01:04:27,047
Yet Gondo's sacrifice
has not gone unnoticed.

736
01:04:27,214 --> 01:04:33,261
Words of sympathy have grown
into national acclaim for him.

737
01:04:33,428 --> 01:04:35,597
How will the kidnapper
react to this?

738
01:04:35,764 --> 01:04:39,851
If he's listening,
I'll tell him this:

739
01:04:40,018 --> 01:04:43,522
Mr. Gondo is having
the last laugh!

740
01:05:14,136 --> 01:05:16,263
We learned from Shinichi

741
01:05:16,430 --> 01:05:19,099
that a woman held him.

742
01:05:19,266 --> 01:05:23,478
Unfortunately, hats hid the faces
of both the man and the woman,

743
01:05:23,645 --> 01:05:27,149
making identification impossible.

744
01:05:27,315 --> 01:05:31,445
But their movements
may provide important clues.

745
01:05:31,611 --> 01:05:33,697
Watch carefully.

746
01:05:48,753 --> 01:05:50,130
Well?

747
01:05:50,297 --> 01:05:54,551
Any idea who they may be?

748
01:05:58,221 --> 01:06:01,516
Don't hesitate to say
if you have any idea.

749
01:06:03,226 --> 01:06:06,188
Delivery boys, milkmen,

750
01:06:06,354 --> 01:06:08,773
gardeners,
junk collectors, salesmen.

751
01:06:08,982 --> 01:06:12,986
Try to remember everyone
who's come through here.

752
01:06:17,115 --> 01:06:19,534
This kind of thing
might come to you suddenly.

753
01:06:19,701 --> 01:06:21,912
Take your time.

754
01:06:25,665 --> 01:06:30,462
Bos'n, the 8mm films are well shot,
but not much help yet.

755
01:06:30,629 --> 01:06:35,050
The figure is blurred in the photos,
but they're helpful.

756
01:06:35,884 --> 01:06:38,094
Look at this.

757
01:06:43,183 --> 01:06:45,060
This is the accomplice.

758
01:06:46,228 --> 01:06:51,191
See this tiny figure here?
That's a farmer leading a cow.

759
01:06:52,192 --> 01:06:54,611
He gave us
some useful information.

760
01:06:54,778 --> 01:06:58,907
He saw a man with two briefcases
run into the shadows here

761
01:06:59,199 --> 01:07:01,952
and then drive off.

762
01:07:02,285 --> 01:07:07,082
We checked the area
and found skid marks.

763
01:07:07,249 --> 01:07:10,377
It seems he ran
into a concrete railing,

764
01:07:10,544 --> 01:07:12,420
leaving behind paint scrapings.

765
01:07:13,088 --> 01:07:17,592
By having them checked,
we determined the following:

766
01:07:18,802 --> 01:07:22,264
The car was
a gray '59 Toyopet Crown.

767
01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:26,560
This is the car you rode in,
isn't it?

768
01:07:28,436 --> 01:07:29,688
Yes.

769
01:07:31,523 --> 01:07:33,441
- Can we go?
- Sure.

770
01:07:34,776 --> 01:07:38,446
Shinichi, try harder
to remember everything.

771
01:07:39,489 --> 01:07:43,368
You were at a house with a view
of the sea and Mt. Fuji?

772
01:07:44,744 --> 01:07:48,373
What road did the car take
from there to the river?

773
01:07:49,249 --> 01:07:52,127
- I don't remember.
- Try harder, damn it!

774
01:07:52,794 --> 01:07:54,588
What did you see
from the car window?

775
01:07:56,965 --> 01:07:58,258
Lots of things.

776
01:07:58,466 --> 01:08:00,135
That's not good enough!

777
01:08:01,177 --> 01:08:04,806
I'm asking you to try harder.
What did you see?

778
01:08:05,473 --> 01:08:07,183
- | can’t —
- Shinichi!

779
01:08:07,350 --> 01:08:09,019
Aoki, stop this.

780
01:08:13,773 --> 01:08:17,611
When you remember, kiddo,
come tell us, okay?

781
01:08:25,577 --> 01:08:29,289
Mr. Aoki,
we know how you feel.

782
01:08:29,497 --> 01:08:31,791
We feel the same way.

783
01:08:32,417 --> 01:08:36,296
We're desperate to capture
the culprit and return the money.

784
01:08:38,006 --> 01:08:40,342
We owe Mr. Gondo
at least that much.

785
01:08:40,550 --> 01:08:42,427
Guests, sir.

786
01:08:44,387 --> 01:08:49,351
Anyway, Mr. Aoki,
go easier on the boy.

787
01:08:50,101 --> 01:08:52,228
Excuse me.

788
01:08:54,981 --> 01:08:58,860
Shinichi's already recalled
some key information.

789
01:08:59,527 --> 01:09:05,325
They covered his face
with gauze soaked in ether.

790
01:09:05,492 --> 01:09:08,119
He went to a house with a view
of Mt. Fuji and the sea.

791
01:09:11,665 --> 01:09:13,875
Well, that's all for today.

792
01:09:18,713 --> 01:09:20,715
Oh, one more thing.

793
01:09:21,049 --> 01:09:23,843
We've received
a mountain of mail.

794
01:09:24,052 --> 01:09:26,429
Mr. Gondo went through
a horrible experience,

795
01:09:26,596 --> 01:09:29,516
but everyone admires him.

796
01:09:30,016 --> 01:09:32,852
That lifts
our spirits a bit too.

797
01:09:33,061 --> 01:09:36,940
You're a hero, and the public
is very sympathetic,

798
01:09:37,107 --> 01:09:40,568
but what about
National Shoes?

799
01:09:41,027 --> 01:09:44,072
<i>A battle for ownership
won't be pretty.</i>

800
01:09:45,031 --> 01:09:49,703
We hear your position is shaky.

801
01:09:50,495 --> 01:09:52,247
Is that true?

802
01:09:52,414 --> 01:09:54,666
Frankly, we're worried.

803
01:09:54,833 --> 01:09:56,835
Sympathy costs nothing,

804
01:09:57,001 --> 01:10:01,881
but we've invested real money.
We have no sympathy for you.

805
01:10:02,257 --> 01:10:05,176
As your principal creditors,

806
01:10:05,343 --> 01:10:07,929
we've reached
a decision together.

807
01:10:08,513 --> 01:10:12,350
<i>We're returning the interest
you sent yesterday</i>

808
01:10:12,517 --> 01:10:16,771
to postpone
paying us the principal.

809
01:10:17,439 --> 01:10:20,525
Pay us in full
when it falls due.

810
01:10:20,692 --> 01:10:24,446
If you don’t, we’ll seize
your collateral property.

811
01:10:24,612 --> 01:10:28,616
Public opinion aside, Mr. Gondo,
you can't pay a kidnapper

812
01:10:28,783 --> 01:10:32,829
and leave us footing the bill.

813
01:10:55,810 --> 01:10:58,938
The Gondo residence is visible

814
01:10:59,147 --> 01:11:02,150
from Nishi Ward
and parts of Naka Ward.

815
01:11:02,317 --> 01:11:05,487
There are some places
where changes in elevation,

816
01:11:05,653 --> 01:11:11,910
trees, or large structures
block the view.

817
01:11:12,577 --> 01:11:17,081
Those locations
are shown with hatch lines.

818
01:11:17,248 --> 01:11:20,210
The Gondo living room
can be seen clearly

819
01:11:20,376 --> 01:11:24,172
with an ordinary telescope

820
01:11:24,422 --> 01:11:27,342
from any point within this circle.

821
01:11:27,926 --> 01:11:30,303
It can also be seen
from the inside

822
01:11:30,470 --> 01:11:34,516
of seven phone booths
within this perimeter.

823
01:11:35,225 --> 01:11:38,520
Those are indicated
by these X marks.

824
01:11:38,686 --> 01:11:41,856
Three of those seven
allow a good view

825
01:11:42,023 --> 01:11:45,026
even when using a telescope
while on the phone.

826
01:11:45,193 --> 01:11:49,906
Those are indicated
by these circled X marks.

827
01:11:50,198 --> 01:11:55,161
We believe the suspect used
one of these phones.

828
01:11:55,328 --> 01:12:00,124
He also complained
that it was very hot.

829
01:12:00,333 --> 01:12:04,087
He called
a little before 9:00 a.m.

830
01:12:04,254 --> 01:12:08,550
We checked which booths receive
the most direct sunlight at that hour.

831
01:12:08,716 --> 01:12:11,219
Of these three,

832
01:12:12,053 --> 01:12:14,514
this one is shaded
in the morning.

833
01:12:14,806 --> 01:12:17,809
So it is safe to assume

834
01:12:17,976 --> 01:12:21,521
that the suspect used
one of the other two.

835
01:12:21,896 --> 01:12:24,315
The recorded
conversations suggest

836
01:12:24,482 --> 01:12:28,611
he was looking through
the telescope while on the phone.

837
01:12:28,778 --> 01:12:31,406
So we can narrow down
his place of residence

838
01:12:31,573 --> 01:12:35,243
to this vicinity.

839
01:12:36,411 --> 01:12:41,374
Judging from his voice,
he's a young male.

840
01:12:41,583 --> 01:12:46,129
But with the boy he wore
a mask and dark glasses.

841
01:12:46,296 --> 01:12:48,464
Not much to go on there.

842
01:12:50,300 --> 01:12:54,470
Next we have a report
on the railway phone.

843
01:13:03,605 --> 01:13:09,777
You can only call the express train
from Tokyo, Osaka or Nagoya.

844
01:13:10,528 --> 01:13:16,534
The call is relayed by microwave,
but with a long delay,

845
01:13:16,701 --> 01:13:18,745
so it was easy to trace
the origin of the call.

846
01:13:20,121 --> 01:13:23,041
Yurakucho 2-6,
Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo.

847
01:13:23,666 --> 01:13:27,128
A tobacco shop
near the train station.

848
01:13:28,713 --> 01:13:33,092
But the old lady at the shop
had bad eyes

849
01:13:33,259 --> 01:13:34,969
and even worse hearing.

850
01:13:35,303 --> 01:13:37,138
It was hopeless.

851
01:13:37,305 --> 01:13:42,143
We asked around
at all the shops in the vicinity,

852
01:13:42,727 --> 01:13:45,855
but no one could recall

853
01:13:46,022 --> 01:13:49,984
a man placing a call
at the tobacco shop at that hour.

854
01:13:51,986 --> 01:13:53,488
Next.

855
01:13:55,823 --> 01:13:57,992
The boy mentioned
Mt. Fuji and the sea.

856
01:13:58,159 --> 01:14:00,495
Any leads?

857
01:14:05,375 --> 01:14:07,794
We had him draw a picture.

858
01:14:17,345 --> 01:14:21,015
The call with the boy
was a direct-dial local call.

859
01:14:21,516 --> 01:14:24,352
Places with a view
of Mt. Fuji and the sea

860
01:14:24,519 --> 01:14:26,771
where you can call Yokohama
without an operator

861
01:14:26,938 --> 01:14:31,818
include Zushi, Fujisawa,
Chigasaki and part of Kamakura.

862
01:14:33,027 --> 01:14:35,279
The sun in the picture
appears to be setting.

863
01:14:36,406 --> 01:14:40,159
This appears
all along the coast.

864
01:14:44,664 --> 01:14:46,332
Next, the ether.

865
01:14:50,211 --> 01:14:53,297
It's not easy
to trace back to a source.

866
01:14:54,007 --> 01:14:56,551
Pharmacies don't carry it.

867
01:14:56,884 --> 01:15:01,597
Hospitals and larger clinics
buy it wholesale.

868
01:15:02,140 --> 01:15:07,395
There is also industrial-grade ether,
used in welding.

869
01:15:08,312 --> 01:15:11,899
So it's too early
to say the suspect

870
01:15:12,066 --> 01:15:17,488
is a doctor, pharmacist,
or medical student.

871
01:15:18,114 --> 01:15:20,074
Industrial-grade ether is used

872
01:15:20,241 --> 01:15:24,162
in building ships, railroad cars
and automobiles,

873
01:15:24,328 --> 01:15:27,749
as well as in small iron works

874
01:15:27,915 --> 01:15:30,960
and repair shops.

875
01:15:31,294 --> 01:15:32,503
That's all.

876
01:15:35,006 --> 01:15:37,341
Next, the car.

877
01:15:42,513 --> 01:15:47,351
The farmer said it had white plates,
so it's privately owned.

878
01:15:47,518 --> 01:15:51,314
Crooks generally
don't use a family car,

879
01:15:51,481 --> 01:15:54,776
so I checked
on stolen vehicles.

880
01:15:56,110 --> 01:16:00,865
This month,
18 Toyopets were stolen.

881
01:16:01,032 --> 01:16:04,535
However, 12 were recovered
before the kidnapping.

882
01:16:05,161 --> 01:16:10,041
That leaves six. Only one is gray,
like our paint sample.

883
01:16:12,335 --> 01:16:17,423
It was stolen
the day before the kidnapping.

884
01:16:18,883 --> 01:16:20,468
The license number...

885
01:16:22,136 --> 01:16:24,806
is Kanagawa SO3059.

886
01:16:26,432 --> 01:16:29,102
Since the plates
may have been changed,

887
01:16:29,268 --> 01:16:34,357
Vehicle Theft is checking
all gray 59 Toyopets on the road.

888
01:16:35,525 --> 01:16:36,317
That's all.

889
01:16:36,484 --> 01:16:40,988
Good.
Next, the 1000-yen notes.

890
01:16:44,575 --> 01:16:50,081
We compiled a list
of serial numbers

891
01:16:50,248 --> 01:16:56,337
for tobacco shops, cafeterias,
cafés and movie theaters.

892
01:16:57,255 --> 01:17:01,092
Goodwill for Mr. Gondo
makes the owners eager to help,

893
01:17:01,259 --> 01:17:06,556
but none of the notes
have turned up yet.

894
01:17:08,349 --> 01:17:11,602
Next, reports from the public.

895
01:17:15,857 --> 01:17:21,612
We've received
1,305 reports of sightings,

896
01:17:22,363 --> 01:17:26,492
only a few of which
are from cranks.

897
01:17:26,909 --> 01:17:32,582
All reported seeing
men with boys of Shinichi's age,

898
01:17:33,249 --> 01:17:39,255
but many of the sightings
occurred before he was kidnapped

899
01:17:39,422 --> 01:17:41,924
or after he was recovered.

900
01:17:42,633 --> 01:17:46,804
And he was seen
at the same time

901
01:17:46,971 --> 01:17:51,434
in places far removed
from each other.

902
01:17:51,726 --> 01:17:54,312
We"re trying
to corroborate the reports.

903
01:17:55,271 --> 01:17:59,192
One promising report
we received today

904
01:17:59,358 --> 01:18:01,903
was from a turnpike
toll collector.

905
01:18:02,069 --> 01:18:05,573
About 7:00 p.m.
the night of the kidnapping,

906
01:18:05,740 --> 01:18:08,993
a man in dark glasses
drove up.

907
01:18:09,160 --> 01:18:14,916
A boy was sleeping
under a blanket in the back seat.

908
01:18:15,374 --> 01:18:18,753
The car was dark.
He couldn't see the boy's face,

909
01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:24,050
but he did notice a toy rifle
and a cowboy hat.

910
01:18:25,259 --> 01:18:28,846
The man was headed
toward Fujisawa.

911
01:18:29,013 --> 01:18:32,350
This is our best lead so far.

912
01:18:32,516 --> 01:18:37,271
We're now reexamining
all reports from that area.

913
01:18:42,235 --> 01:18:44,737
Next, the railway connection.

914
01:18:47,448 --> 01:18:49,617
The Kodama train's infrastructure

915
01:18:49,784 --> 01:18:52,286
<i>is not that different
from other express trains.</i>

916
01:18:52,453 --> 01:18:55,957
<i>The suspect is very familiar
with the system,</i>

917
01:18:56,123 --> 01:18:58,626
but that doesn't necessarily mean

918
01:18:58,793 --> 01:19:00,503
<i>that he's a railroad man.</i>

919
01:19:00,670 --> 01:19:04,382
We nonetheless ran a check
on all employees

920
01:19:04,548 --> 01:19:07,385
<i>with connections
to express trains</i>

921
01:19:07,551 --> 01:19:10,263
who were absent
during the kidnapping

922
01:19:10,429 --> 01:19:13,307
or had quit just prior to it,

923
01:19:13,474 --> 01:19:18,688
and those living in view
of the Gondo home.

924
01:19:19,772 --> 01:19:24,402
There were very few.
I'll have a final report tomorrow.

925
01:19:25,611 --> 01:19:26,862
That's all.

926
01:19:27,947 --> 01:19:30,825
Next, grudges or other motives.

927
01:19:33,953 --> 01:19:37,498
I met today with
the National Shoes executives.

928
01:19:41,168 --> 01:19:44,297
What a bunch of assholes.

929
01:19:45,506 --> 01:19:47,758
A grudge?

930
01:19:48,050 --> 01:19:52,513
Inspector, you think
we were behind the kidnapping?

931
01:19:52,930 --> 01:19:57,184
Think we set it all up
to get rid of Gondo?

932
01:19:57,351 --> 01:20:02,690
That's absurd. We went that night
to join forces with him.

933
01:20:02,857 --> 01:20:05,693
On bended knee even.
- He almost did us in.

934
01:20:05,860 --> 01:20:10,865
We had no idea of his plans
until Kawanishi informed us.

935
01:20:11,032 --> 01:20:12,908
Serves him right.

936
01:20:13,326 --> 01:20:16,871
He was secretly buying stock
to take over the company.

937
01:20:17,204 --> 01:20:19,457
Then this incident
comes along and ruins him.

938
01:20:19,874 --> 01:20:22,335
I'd call it divine retribution.

939
01:20:24,879 --> 01:20:27,715
It's not that I doubt you,

940
01:20:28,090 --> 01:20:32,345
but you’ve known
Mr. Gondo a long time.

941
01:20:32,678 --> 01:20:35,806
I just wondered
if there was anyone

942
01:20:35,973 --> 01:20:38,976
who might have held
a grudge against him.

943
01:20:39,143 --> 01:20:40,853
Where should we start?

944
01:20:41,228 --> 01:20:43,230
We couldn't even
name them all.

945
01:20:45,816 --> 01:20:48,069
One more question.

946
01:20:48,527 --> 01:20:53,657
The kidnapping occurred
just after you left his home.

947
01:20:54,241 --> 01:20:57,870
Did you notice anything
near the gate?

948
01:20:58,329 --> 01:21:02,750
A car, for instance,
or a suspicious person?

949
01:21:02,917 --> 01:21:08,214
Look here! He'd just thrown us out.
We weren't admiring the view.

950
01:21:11,717 --> 01:21:14,220
They were no help.

951
01:21:14,929 --> 01:21:18,474
But at the factory —

952
01:21:19,100 --> 01:21:24,230
Mr. Gondo has
a sharp temper for sure,

953
01:21:24,730 --> 01:21:29,610
but he also cares a lot
about the work.

954
01:21:29,777 --> 01:21:32,988
He's an excellent boss
if you do a good job.

955
01:21:33,364 --> 01:21:36,951
I doubt anyone here

956
01:21:37,118 --> 01:21:39,912
holds a grudge against him,

957
01:21:40,121 --> 01:21:42,790
except maybe the front office.

958
01:21:44,625 --> 01:21:46,377
Here's what I think:

959
01:21:46,544 --> 01:21:50,923
Nobody holds a grudge
against Mr. Gondo...

960
01:21:52,091 --> 01:21:53,926
except the big shots.

961
01:21:54,093 --> 01:21:56,470
They'd give
the kidnapper a medal!

962
01:21:56,637 --> 01:21:59,014
Taguchi, calm down.

963
01:22:02,476 --> 01:22:07,982
Now for the results
of this meeting.

964
01:22:08,649 --> 01:22:10,192
Inspector Tokura.

965
01:22:18,159 --> 01:22:23,497
So far, this case seems
impossible to break.

966
01:22:24,331 --> 01:22:27,501
But the criminal
must be in these details.

967
01:22:27,668 --> 01:22:30,421
Follow every lead through
to the bitter end.

968
01:22:30,754 --> 01:22:35,217
It may be fruitless,
but when you're discouraged...

969
01:22:40,473 --> 01:22:43,350
think of what
Mr. Gondo's going through.

970
01:22:47,938 --> 01:22:50,649
Take the boy tomorrow

971
01:22:50,816 --> 01:22:52,526
for a drive along the shore.

972
01:22:52,693 --> 01:22:56,697
Cover every mile
until you find this view.

973
01:22:57,114 --> 01:23:00,826
If you can jog his memory,
you may find the hideout.

974
01:23:08,918 --> 01:23:10,503
It's Vehicle Theft.

975
01:23:14,048 --> 01:23:16,550
Tokura speaking.

976
01:23:19,011 --> 01:23:20,262
That's great news.

977
01:23:20,429 --> 01:23:25,392
<i>We'll be right there.
Don't touch anything.</i>

978
01:23:26,769 --> 01:23:28,562
They found the car.

979
01:23:28,771 --> 01:23:32,983
Abandoned on a highway.
Call the crime-scene unit.

980
01:23:34,193 --> 01:23:38,572
Have more men bunk at the station,
with the rest on call.

981
01:24:00,135 --> 01:24:03,264
It's spattered with mud,
but there's been no rain lately.

982
01:24:03,430 --> 01:24:07,268
It's actually dust
combined with splashed water.

983
01:24:33,460 --> 01:24:34,920
What’s this?

984
01:24:35,629 --> 01:24:38,674
- What's wrong?
- Everybody listen to this.

985
01:24:45,306 --> 01:24:47,808
<i>Hello. This is Gondo.</i>

986
01:24:48,642 --> 01:24:52,146
<i>The boy's fine.
I'll let him talk to you.</i>

987
01:24:52,313 --> 01:24:54,690
Daddy? Are you there?

988
01:25:00,821 --> 01:25:03,490
Hear that trolley?

989
01:25:17,713 --> 01:25:18,964
So?

990
01:25:19,131 --> 01:25:22,343
A trolley passes
by the hideout.

991
01:25:22,926 --> 01:25:26,472
Three lines pass through Zushi,
Fujisawa, Chigasaki and Kamakura:

992
01:25:26,639 --> 01:25:29,808
the JR, Odayaku
and Enoshima lines.

993
01:25:29,975 --> 01:25:34,563
Each has a distinctive sound. Maybe
a specialist could tell which it is.

994
01:25:35,022 --> 01:25:36,482
I'll be back.

995
01:25:37,983 --> 01:25:40,194
Enoshima Rail?
You're sure?

996
01:25:40,361 --> 01:25:43,822
You bet your boots.
I live right next to the tracks.

997
01:25:43,989 --> 01:25:46,659
That sound

998
01:25:46,825 --> 01:25:49,036
isn't a pantograph trolley.

999
01:25:49,203 --> 01:25:53,624
It's an old-style,
single-pole trolley.

1000
01:25:53,791 --> 01:25:58,379
Only the Enoshima line
uses those old lines nowadays.

1001
01:25:58,796 --> 01:26:01,548
Plus, their line has
a lot of curves,

1002
01:26:01,715 --> 01:26:04,218
and they use short rails
with lots of joints.

1003
01:26:04,385 --> 01:26:08,013
Also, the wheelbase is narrow,
so it goes...

1004
01:26:09,890 --> 01:26:11,392
instead of...

1005
01:26:13,310 --> 01:26:14,978
Thank you very much.

1006
01:26:16,522 --> 01:26:18,232
Is Mr. Aoki in?

1007
01:26:18,399 --> 01:26:20,526
I'm sorry. He's out.

1008
01:26:20,693 --> 01:26:23,070
Is he at your husband's office?

1009
01:26:23,404 --> 01:26:24,780
No.

1010
01:26:28,742 --> 01:26:30,160
Where is he?

1011
01:26:30,327 --> 01:26:32,913
He took Shinichi for a drive.

1012
01:26:33,414 --> 01:26:38,585
<i>He wants 10 jog Shinichi's memory
10 help find the kidnapper.</i>

1013
01:26:47,761 --> 01:26:50,097
He just won't let up, will he?

1014
01:26:50,264 --> 01:26:54,309
Give him a break.
He feels he has to do something.

1015
01:27:29,636 --> 01:27:31,722
You're sure
he let you out here?

1016
01:27:31,889 --> 01:27:34,308
- From which way?
- That way.

1017
01:27:35,976 --> 01:27:38,687
Watch carefully
out the back as we go.

1018
01:27:38,854 --> 01:27:42,149
Tell me
if you remember anything.

1019
01:27:53,827 --> 01:27:55,120
Now what?

1020
01:27:55,287 --> 01:27:58,123
We can't do anything
without the boy.

1021
01:27:58,290 --> 01:28:00,417
My guess is Aoki
will go to the Sakawa River.

1022
01:28:00,584 --> 01:28:02,503
Take the Tokaido Highway.

1023
01:28:11,512 --> 01:28:13,555
Daddy!

1024
01:28:13,722 --> 01:28:17,017
What?
Remember something?

1025
01:28:17,851 --> 01:28:19,895
I peed over there.

1026
01:28:26,527 --> 01:28:31,573
We're looking for Aoki. Once we have
the boy, we'll head for the shore.

1027
01:28:31,949 --> 01:28:35,285
Hold on.
I just got word from the lab.

1028
01:28:35,452 --> 01:28:39,873
<i>There's a lot of fish blood
and oil on the stolen car.</i>

1029
01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:42,167
They also found
mackerel scales and bonito.

1030
01:28:42,334 --> 01:28:44,962
That's what was splashed
on the hood of the car.

1031
01:28:45,128 --> 01:28:49,049
He drove through a lot of fish offal.

1032
01:28:49,216 --> 01:28:52,636
It must've been at a fish market.

1033
01:28:52,803 --> 01:28:55,389
The Koshigoe market
ls the only one near that trolley.

1034
01:28:55,556 --> 01:28:58,392
Take a look over there.
We'll handle Aoki.

1035
01:28:58,559 --> 01:29:00,185
Got it.

1036
01:29:08,485 --> 01:29:13,615
Around here we mainly catch
bonito and mackerel.

1037
01:29:13,782 --> 01:29:17,077
But that's not enough
to fill local demand,

1038
01:29:17,244 --> 01:29:20,372
so we have other kinds
trucked in from Tokyo.

1039
01:29:25,544 --> 01:29:29,590
Thanks. By the way, where does
the Enoshima trolley run?

1040
01:29:35,971 --> 01:29:37,681
Under that bluff.

1041
01:29:37,848 --> 01:29:40,058
Does the view from there...

1042
01:29:41,643 --> 01:29:43,937
look anything like this?

1043
01:29:44,313 --> 01:29:45,939
Let's see.

1044
01:29:47,983 --> 01:29:51,695
You should be able to see
Enoshima Island from there.

1045
01:29:53,447 --> 01:29:59,244
But if you go further right,
to the hill near the station...

1046
01:30:02,581 --> 01:30:07,127
that cape is in front of Enoshima,
with a view just like this.

1047
01:30:14,426 --> 01:30:17,095
You saw Enoshima Island, right?

1048
01:30:18,430 --> 01:30:20,098
You must have.

1049
01:30:20,265 --> 01:30:22,267
But we didn't come this way.

1050
01:30:37,658 --> 01:30:42,496
Bos'n, I feel
we're getting closer.

1051
01:30:43,664 --> 01:30:47,626
Let's go up that hill.
Try not to look like a cop.

1052
01:30:47,793 --> 01:30:49,628
I'm not the problem.

1053
01:30:49,795 --> 01:30:53,423
You, on the other hand,
would need plastic surgery.

1054
01:30:57,010 --> 01:31:00,097
Daddy!
I saw this tunnel!

1055
01:31:00,263 --> 01:31:03,141
What?
You passed by here?

1056
01:31:04,351 --> 01:31:06,353
From which direction?

1057
01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:07,813
That way.

1058
01:31:57,946 --> 01:32:00,574
Shinichi, is this the spot?

1059
01:32:12,502 --> 01:32:14,379
Hey, look at that.

1060
01:32:14,546 --> 01:32:18,091
Enoshima doesn't look
like an island from here.

1061
01:32:18,258 --> 01:32:19,676
Let's head back.

1062
01:32:19,843 --> 01:32:23,722
They must have Aoki by now.

1063
01:32:23,889 --> 01:32:26,850
We'll wait at the fish market.
If the boy shows us the way,

1064
01:32:27,017 --> 01:32:29,061
with any luck we'll raid
the hideout tonight.

1065
01:32:29,227 --> 01:32:31,104
You got your pistol?

1066
01:32:31,271 --> 01:32:35,317
Of course. I'm not going
after a madman with my bare hands.

1067
01:32:40,530 --> 01:32:42,949
Let's look around on foot.

1068
01:32:52,459 --> 01:32:53,919
That car!

1069
01:32:54,086 --> 01:32:56,004
That's Gondo's car.

1070
01:33:12,354 --> 01:33:15,857
Don't be stupid.
Stop playing detective.

1071
01:33:24,991 --> 01:33:30,372
When I pulled the car up
this morning, Mr. Gondo said,

1072
01:33:30,539 --> 01:33:33,083
“Aoki, all we have now is time.

1073
01:33:33,250 --> 01:33:36,253
We're not going
to the factory anymore.”

1074
01:33:38,130 --> 01:33:40,507
He was smiling,

1075
01:33:40,674 --> 01:33:44,511
but I know how he felt inside.

1076
01:33:45,846 --> 01:33:48,014
The directors are horrible men,

1077
01:33:48,181 --> 01:33:51,726
but in the end it's all my fault.

1078
01:33:52,477 --> 01:33:53,937
That's why...

1079
01:33:56,189 --> 01:34:01,653
But walking around here
with the boy is madness.

1080
01:34:03,155 --> 01:34:07,033
What if the kidnapper saw him?
Imagine the consequences.

1081
01:34:09,411 --> 01:34:11,538
Bos'n, he's gone!

1082
01:34:18,879 --> 01:34:20,922
Daddy!

1083
01:34:21,882 --> 01:34:23,550
Here it is!

1084
01:34:41,067 --> 01:34:43,820
Uncle and Auntie
are sleeping.

1085
01:35:19,898 --> 01:35:22,025
Take the boy away.

1086
01:35:22,192 --> 01:35:23,860
They're dead.

1087
01:35:52,931 --> 01:35:54,766
Thanks for coming,
everybody.

1088
01:35:58,937 --> 01:36:01,147
- Why the press conference?
- Yeah, what'd you find?

1089
01:36:01,314 --> 01:36:03,441
Inspector Tokura
will fill you in.

1090
01:36:03,608 --> 01:36:07,988
However, we ask you
not to print what you hear today.

1091
01:36:09,781 --> 01:36:12,492
Earlier today,

1092
01:36:12,659 --> 01:36:15,870
two accomplices, one male,
one female, were found dead.

1093
01:36:18,290 --> 01:36:21,209
Both from heroin overdose.

1094
01:36:21,376 --> 01:36:24,170
- An accidental overdose?
- I'll explain.

1095
01:36:27,674 --> 01:36:32,262
Their arms were covered
with needle marks.

1096
01:36:32,679 --> 01:36:35,598
Both were long-term addicts.

1097
01:36:36,224 --> 01:36:40,353
It’s unlikely
that experienced addicts

1098
01:36:40,520 --> 01:36:43,106
would misjudge the dosage.

1099
01:36:43,273 --> 01:36:47,068
Dealers, furthermore,
don't sell heroin that pure.

1100
01:36:48,403 --> 01:36:52,365
Both died in bed,
their heads resting on pillows.

1101
01:36:53,158 --> 01:36:55,076
Next to the pillows

1102
01:36:55,243 --> 01:36:58,663
we found two empty packets,
two syringes,

1103
01:36:58,830 --> 01:37:03,710
and a cup of water,
maybe to dissolve the heroin.

1104
01:37:04,878 --> 01:37:06,212
In addition,

1105
01:37:06,379 --> 01:37:10,508
we found two unopened
packets of heroin.

1106
01:37:11,551 --> 01:37:14,763
So they obtained four packets,

1107
01:37:14,929 --> 01:37:19,100
They took two right away
and saved two for later.

1108
01:37:19,267 --> 01:37:22,103
These facts
don't suggest suicide.

1109
01:37:24,439 --> 01:37:26,733
So then why did they die?

1110
01:37:30,320 --> 01:37:35,325
The heroin
was unusually pure.

1111
01:37:37,327 --> 01:37:42,749
We analyzed the unused samples.
They were over 90% pure.

1112
01:37:42,916 --> 01:37:45,168
When heroin is smuggled in,

1113
01:37:45,335 --> 01:37:49,339
its purity ranges
from 70% to 95%.

1114
01:37:49,881 --> 01:37:52,675
Dealers cut it

1115
01:37:52,842 --> 01:37:57,263
with glucose
and hydrochloric procaine,

1116
01:37:57,430 --> 01:38:00,141
down to a purity
as low as 30%.

1117
01:38:00,308 --> 01:38:03,937
So a one-gram package

1118
01:38:04,104 --> 01:38:07,607
contains only 0.3 grams
of pure heroin.

1119
01:38:08,900 --> 01:38:12,654
What happens to an addict

1120
01:38:12,821 --> 01:38:16,783
who takes heroin
three times more pure?

1121
01:38:17,367 --> 01:38:20,245
An ingenious murder.

1122
01:38:22,872 --> 01:38:25,708
There's corroborating evidence.

1123
01:38:25,875 --> 01:38:29,963
We found a notepad
in their room.

1124
01:38:30,130 --> 01:38:32,257
The top page
bore impressions

1125
01:38:32,424 --> 01:38:36,636
from scribblings
made on the page above it.

1126
01:38:45,812 --> 01:38:47,689
Please observe.

1127
01:38:47,856 --> 01:38:51,985
It's been reconstructed
and enlarged in this slide.

1128
01:38:52,152 --> 01:38:57,031
The agony of withdrawal
can be clearly seen.

1129
01:38:57,198 --> 01:39:01,369
“Get us more dope.
Bring it fast.

1130
01:39:01,536 --> 01:39:04,747
If you don't,
we'll spend the money.

1131
01:39:04,914 --> 01:39:09,169
We won't do
what you say anymore.”

1132
01:39:13,548 --> 01:39:18,386
Clearly, they tried
to blackmail him.

1133
01:39:18,553 --> 01:39:21,431
- That's why he killed them?
- We're not 100% certain,

1134
01:39:21,598 --> 01:39:24,476
but it certainly looks that way.

1135
01:39:24,642 --> 01:39:26,686
Was there money around?

1136
01:39:26,853 --> 01:39:30,148
We found 2,500
of Mr. Gondo's 1,000-yen notes.

1137
01:39:30,315 --> 01:39:32,942
The serial numbers matched.

1138
01:39:33,151 --> 01:39:35,862
The kidnapper may have
figured that out too.

1139
01:39:36,029 --> 01:39:40,700
He gave them a share
but made them wait to spend it.

1140
01:39:40,867 --> 01:39:43,870
We can gather that
from the letter.

1141
01:39:44,746 --> 01:39:47,165
Have you identified
the accomplices?

1142
01:39:47,332 --> 01:39:49,751
Caretakers of the villa.

1143
01:39:49,918 --> 01:39:55,340
We learned that
from the villa's owner.

1144
01:39:56,549 --> 01:39:58,218
So you're close?

1145
01:39:58,384 --> 01:40:02,055
No, we're back to square one.

1146
01:40:02,222 --> 01:40:05,892
Of course,
Narcotics is doing its best.

1147
01:40:06,059 --> 01:40:10,230
They may provide us
with valuable information,

1148
01:40:10,688 --> 01:40:14,234
but the accomplices' deaths

1149
01:40:14,400 --> 01:40:17,153
are a terrible blow
to the investigation.

1150
01:40:17,946 --> 01:40:22,867
The thread leading back
to the kidnapper has been cut.

1151
01:40:26,746 --> 01:40:30,416
That's why I'm asking you:

1152
01:40:30,833 --> 01:40:34,587
Don't print a word of this.

1153
01:40:36,548 --> 01:40:38,216
Why not?

1154
01:40:39,592 --> 01:40:43,096
The kidnapper has yet
to confirm that they're dead.

1155
01:40:44,722 --> 01:40:49,310
We know this because
if he had returned to the villa,

1156
01:40:49,477 --> 01:40:54,357
he wouldn't have left 2.5 million yen
in evidence lying around.

1157
01:40:55,441 --> 01:40:58,820
As far as he knows,

1158
01:40:58,987 --> 01:41:01,614
they may still be alive.

1159
01:41:01,781 --> 01:41:04,117
If we nurse that doubt within him,
how will he react?

1160
01:41:04,450 --> 01:41:08,955
If he is the Killer, he'll probably
try to kill them again.

1161
01:41:09,706 --> 01:41:14,252
If there's no report
of their deaths in the papers,

1162
01:41:14,419 --> 01:41:16,296
he won’t be able to stay put.

1163
01:41:16,462 --> 01:41:18,965
He’ll surely return
to the scene to check.

1164
01:41:19,132 --> 01:41:22,594
- And you'll nab him then?
- That's right.

1165
01:41:22,760 --> 01:41:25,555
Even if we keep quiet,

1166
01:41:25,722 --> 01:41:27,849
won't their deaths
be impossible to hide?

1167
01:41:28,016 --> 01:41:30,101
The neighbors will talk.

1168
01:41:30,268 --> 01:41:32,061
That's not a problem.

1169
01:41:32,228 --> 01:41:36,899
I's a new development
with few houses.

1170
01:41:37,066 --> 01:41:41,404
It's also the off-season,
so hardly anybody's there.

1171
01:41:41,571 --> 01:41:45,074
Drug addicts are cautious.

1172
01:41:45,241 --> 01:41:48,453
They kept to themselves
and had no visitors.

1173
01:41:48,620 --> 01:41:54,167
But will our keeping quiet
really convince the kidnapper?

1174
01:41:56,210 --> 01:41:57,795
Well, that's why

1175
01:41:58,087 --> 01:42:00,340
I have another favor to ask.

1176
01:42:01,507 --> 01:42:04,969
I'd like you
to run a story today

1177
01:42:05,136 --> 01:42:07,764
saying one of the 1,000-yen notes
was spent.

1178
01:42:10,016 --> 01:42:13,978
Of course you can say
it's our announcement.

1179
01:42:14,520 --> 01:42:17,982
I know it's a lot to ask.

1180
01:42:18,149 --> 01:42:21,027
I'm asking your cooperation
for Mr. Gondo's sake too.

1181
01:42:22,403 --> 01:42:25,740
Did you know he was dismissed
from National Shoes

1182
01:42:25,907 --> 01:42:28,534
and kicked out
as factory manager?

1183
01:42:29,202 --> 01:42:31,537
That's terrible.

1184
01:42:31,704 --> 01:42:33,539
They seem to have no sense
of public opinion.

1185
01:42:33,706 --> 01:42:38,127
At the next shareholder meeting,
he'll be voted out completely.

1186
01:42:38,878 --> 01:42:40,880
In place of an article
reporting the deaths,

1187
01:42:41,047 --> 01:42:44,884
shall we slam
National Shoes?

1188
01:42:49,305 --> 01:42:51,849
Why not? Let's give "em
a good thrashing!

1189
01:42:56,270 --> 01:42:59,232
GONDO FORCED OUT
PUBLIC OPINION IGNORED

1190
01:42:59,649 --> 01:43:03,152
WOMEN START BOYCOTT
OF NATIONAL SHOES

1191
01:43:03,528 --> 01:43:09,200
RISING TIDE
OF SYMPATHY AND ANGER

1192
01:43:17,166 --> 01:43:19,961
1,000-YEN NOTE
FROM RANSOM FOUND

1193
01:43:25,299 --> 01:43:29,762
30 MILLION IN RANSOM
IN BRIEFCASES LIKE THIS

1194
01:45:12,240 --> 01:45:15,368
We've recovered 2.5 million
from the accomplices.

1195
01:45:15,868 --> 01:45:18,913
We can hand it over at the station,
if it's not too much trouble.

1196
01:45:19,080 --> 01:45:20,998
We're sorry that it's so little.

1197
01:45:21,165 --> 01:45:23,835
No, it's a great help now.

1198
01:45:24,544 --> 01:45:28,589
We believe the kidnapper
hasn't spent any yet.

1199
01:45:28,756 --> 01:45:31,676
We hope
to recover it all intact.

1200
01:45:31,843 --> 01:45:36,180
The twist is that he's harder
to catch if he doesn't spend it.

1201
01:45:36,347 --> 01:45:38,808
Kingo,
Mr. Kawanishi is here.

1202
01:45:38,975 --> 01:45:42,186
Kawanishi?
What does he want?

1203
01:45:42,353 --> 01:45:43,855
He has some kind of request.

1204
01:45:44,021 --> 01:45:46,899
- We'll be leaving then —
- No, stay. Send him in.

1205
01:45:48,651 --> 01:45:50,570
Please, help yourself.

1206
01:45:50,736 --> 01:45:53,531
Sorry I haven't been in touch.

1207
01:45:54,240 --> 01:45:56,158
Well, look who's here!

1208
01:45:56,325 --> 01:45:58,911
I must thank both of you.

1209
01:46:00,371 --> 01:46:04,584
You've made Mr. Gondo a hero.
That was a great help.

1210
01:46:05,084 --> 01:46:07,086
What the hell
are you talking about?

1211
01:46:07,503 --> 01:46:10,423
Don't be so cold.

1212
01:46:10,590 --> 01:46:13,759
I was your right-hand man
for over ten years.

1213
01:46:13,926 --> 01:46:17,513
Did you think I would stand by
while they booted you out?

1214
01:46:17,680 --> 01:46:22,935
I risked my own position
to try to keep you on.

1215
01:46:24,312 --> 01:46:27,940
But the Old Man's stubborn,

1216
01:46:28,107 --> 01:46:31,110
and the executive director's a viper.

1217
01:46:31,277 --> 01:46:33,279
It was a hard-fought battle.

1218
01:46:33,446 --> 01:46:35,990
Fortunately,
public opinion's on your side,

1219
01:46:36,157 --> 01:46:39,785
so I convinced them
to keep you on.

1220
01:46:40,119 --> 01:46:43,623
Get out!
Tell this to your new masters:

1221
01:46:43,789 --> 01:46:47,460
You can't trot me out
to ease the public's anger.

1222
01:46:47,627 --> 01:46:50,504
I refuse to be an ornament,
an executive without power.

1223
01:46:50,671 --> 01:46:53,007
I won't be your puppet.

1224
01:46:55,968 --> 01:46:58,304
Can you afford
to bluff like that?

1225
01:46:58,471 --> 01:47:00,598
You're going too far.

1226
01:47:01,349 --> 01:47:05,895
Right now you have
nothing but debts.

1227
01:47:06,062 --> 01:47:09,565
It may be a position in name only,
but your credit will be intact.

1228
01:47:09,732 --> 01:47:11,484
Get out!

1229
01:47:11,651 --> 01:47:14,528
I'm still the man I've always been,
even more so.

1230
01:47:14,695 --> 01:47:17,740
But you're nothing,
not even a human being.

1231
01:47:44,809 --> 01:47:46,477
Excuse me.

1232
01:47:47,645 --> 01:47:49,605
I'd like you to see something.

1233
01:47:50,022 --> 01:47:51,691
What is it?

1234
01:47:52,066 --> 01:47:54,360
It's nothing much,

1235
01:47:55,361 --> 01:47:58,197
but the last picture
seemed to be of some help.

1236
01:47:59,365 --> 01:48:03,035
Shinichi drew it.
He says it's the kidnapper.

1237
01:48:03,869 --> 01:48:07,957
Dark glasses and a mask.
Not much to go on.

1238
01:48:08,916 --> 01:48:10,418
What’s this?

1239
01:48:10,584 --> 01:48:14,922
A handkerchief.
He always wore it.

1240
01:48:16,966 --> 01:48:18,384
Mom!

1241
01:48:18,551 --> 01:48:22,972
Look at the pretty pink smoke
from that chimney.

1242
01:48:34,442 --> 01:48:37,737
You lit the incinerator
around 9:00 a.m., right?

1243
01:48:39,613 --> 01:48:43,075
Yes, every day I burn
the trash from the day before.

1244
01:48:43,242 --> 01:48:45,411
What do you burn?

1245
01:48:48,581 --> 01:48:53,377
Dirty stuff,
junk that you can't disinfect.

1246
01:48:53,794 --> 01:48:57,089
They're always bringing stuff
that won't burn, damn it!

1247
01:48:57,256 --> 01:49:00,801
- Who is?
- Handymen and janitors.

1248
01:49:01,093 --> 01:49:03,429
Anyone else?

1249
01:49:05,222 --> 01:49:09,393
Sometimes hospital nurses
and attendants.

1250
01:49:09,560 --> 01:49:11,937
Anyone like that
come by today?

1251
01:49:12,271 --> 01:49:14,356
Come to think of it,

1252
01:49:14,523 --> 01:49:18,778
a man brought a cardboard box.

1253
01:49:20,112 --> 01:49:22,865
- How big?
- Like this.

1254
01:49:23,032 --> 01:49:25,242
- Anyone you know?
- No.

1255
01:49:25,409 --> 01:49:27,578
An intern maybe.

1256
01:49:27,745 --> 01:49:29,789
A young medical intern?

1257
01:49:29,955 --> 01:49:32,291
Sure looked that way.

1258
01:49:32,458 --> 01:49:35,336
Too young
to be a regular doctor.

1259
01:49:35,503 --> 01:49:38,923
“Burn this, pops,” he said.

1260
01:49:39,090 --> 01:49:43,094
Doctors don't call people “pops.”
- Anyone else?

1261
01:49:43,260 --> 01:49:46,388
Who'd wanna come
to a place like this?

1262
01:49:46,555 --> 01:49:49,517
Now why'd they bring —

1263
01:49:50,226 --> 01:49:52,645
You can't burn tin!

1264
01:49:57,942 --> 01:50:01,654
Do you know what department
that intern is in?

1265
01:50:01,821 --> 01:50:03,864
How would I know?

1266
01:50:04,031 --> 01:50:06,700
But he was headed
toward Internal Medicine.

1267
01:50:06,867 --> 01:50:09,161
Thanks a lot.

1268
01:51:05,885 --> 01:51:07,845
According to Bos'n's report,

1269
01:51:08,012 --> 01:51:11,390
his name
is Ginjiro Takeuchi.

1270
01:51:11,557 --> 01:51:13,392
An intern.

1271
01:51:13,559 --> 01:51:17,354
He took three days off
during the kidnapping.

1272
01:51:20,316 --> 01:51:22,484
He lives in a studio apartment

1273
01:51:22,985 --> 01:51:26,947
at 4-278 Sengen-cho
in Nishi Ward.

1274
01:51:27,740 --> 01:51:29,950
Sunrise Apartments, No. 12.

1275
01:51:30,326 --> 01:51:34,914
His room faces north,
right at the Gondo residence.

1276
01:51:36,582 --> 01:51:40,628
One of the two phones
that we suspect the kidnapper used

1277
01:51:40,794 --> 01:51:43,964
is right next to his apartment.

1278
01:51:46,175 --> 01:51:48,469
The male and female
accomplices

1279
01:51:48,636 --> 01:51:51,222
had been examined
at his hospital.

1280
01:51:51,388 --> 01:51:53,807
Takeuchi wrote up their charts.

1281
01:51:54,391 --> 01:51:58,020
Both had pulmonary edema,
a result of their drug addiction.

1282
01:51:59,355 --> 01:52:01,899
So we have two addicts
suffering from pulmonary edema,

1283
01:52:02,066 --> 01:52:04,443
as well as from withdrawal.

1284
01:52:04,610 --> 01:52:08,489
An injection of pure heroin
would cause death from shock.

1285
01:52:09,156 --> 01:52:13,953
As their intern,
he would have known that.

1286
01:52:14,912 --> 01:52:19,083
We may conclude
that he is the kidnapper.

1287
01:52:20,584 --> 01:52:22,920
But we can't arrest him.

1288
01:52:24,588 --> 01:52:26,048
Here's why:

1289
01:52:26,966 --> 01:52:31,804
If we arrest him now,
he'll only get 15 years.

1290
01:52:33,013 --> 01:52:34,974
Mr. Gondo,
on the other hand...

1291
01:52:36,475 --> 01:52:40,729
is serving a life sentence of debt
for paying the ransom.

1292
01:52:41,146 --> 01:52:43,565
We won't let that happen.

1293
01:52:43,732 --> 01:52:46,610
A criminal like this
deserves capital punishment.

1294
01:52:47,319 --> 01:52:51,991
What's more, it's clear
he killed his accomplices.

1295
01:52:52,157 --> 01:52:56,120
But if we arrest him now,

1296
01:52:56,287 --> 01:52:59,832
we'll have no material evidence
to prove it.

1297
01:53:01,458 --> 01:53:06,588
There's only one way to bring
this vicious criminal to justice:

1298
01:53:08,007 --> 01:53:11,510
Leave him at large
to reenact his crime.

1299
01:53:12,678 --> 01:53:14,179
But how?

1300
01:53:18,100 --> 01:53:20,102
By giving him this.

1301
01:53:20,269 --> 01:53:22,354
Please lower the blinds.

1302
01:53:32,906 --> 01:53:37,161
GIVE US MORE DOPE.
WE"LL TALK IF YOU DON'T.

1303
01:53:37,328 --> 01:53:40,080
A perfect forgery.

1304
01:53:52,968 --> 01:53:54,803
You Mr. Takeuchi?

1305
01:54:35,969 --> 01:54:38,764
He'll make his move today.

1306
01:54:39,681 --> 01:54:43,602
First, he'll go buy the heroin.

1307
01:54:44,395 --> 01:54:49,149
Then he'll try to kill them tonight.

1308
01:54:49,900 --> 01:54:52,861
There's no way
to predict anything else:

1309
01:54:54,780 --> 01:54:58,700
where he'll go,
how he'll get the drugs.

1310
01:54:58,951 --> 01:55:03,872
We can only know that
by keeping him in our sights.

1311
01:55:05,624 --> 01:55:07,126
Listen carefully:

1312
01:55:07,292 --> 01:55:10,546
Don't let him notice you,
but don't lose him.

1313
01:55:11,296 --> 01:55:14,466
Bos'n, Nakao, Arai and I

1314
01:55:14,633 --> 01:55:19,638
will head to the hideout as soon as
we hear he's obtained the drugs.

1315
01:55:19,805 --> 01:55:23,392
I'll give orders
from the car radio.

1316
01:55:52,087 --> 01:55:54,339
Is he waiting for a dealer?

1317
01:55:54,506 --> 01:55:58,302
<i>Just killing time, I'd say.</i>

1318
01:57:08,205 --> 01:57:11,166
He's walked up and down
this street for two hours.

1319
01:57:11,333 --> 01:57:15,754
If the same people keep tailing him,
he may catch on.

1320
01:58:04,803 --> 01:58:06,179
Inspector!

1321
01:58:06,346 --> 01:58:08,015
Yes. Tokura here.

1322
01:58:08,181 --> 01:58:09,850
He went into a florist's.

1323
01:58:10,017 --> 01:58:13,812
A florist's?
Have someone buy some flowers.

1324
01:58:16,773 --> 01:58:21,361
I'm afraid none of us
fits the part. Wait —

1325
01:58:28,910 --> 01:58:31,288
What?
One carnation?

1326
01:58:31,455 --> 01:58:33,498
Yes. One red carnation.

1327
01:58:33,665 --> 01:58:36,126
Is today Mother's Day?

1328
01:58:49,598 --> 01:58:53,518
Earlier, the suspect spoke
on a pay phone.

1329
01:58:53,935 --> 01:58:57,898
He was told
how to find the dealer.

1330
01:58:58,065 --> 01:59:00,776
The red carnation
must be a sign.

1331
01:59:11,286 --> 01:59:14,665
<i>Watch for anybody
approaching the suspect.</i>

1332
01:59:15,707 --> 01:59:20,170
Watch how the money
and dope change hands.

1333
02:04:42,534 --> 02:04:44,285
Inspector Tokura!

1334
02:04:45,328 --> 02:04:46,329
Tokura speaking.

1335
02:04:46,496 --> 02:04:48,581
- He changed his course.
- What?

1336
02:04:48,748 --> 02:04:51,042
He got out at “Dope Alley.”

1337
02:04:51,209 --> 02:04:53,378
So he didn't actually
buy any in the club?

1338
02:04:53,545 --> 02:04:55,755
We're sure he did, but...

1339
02:04:56,840 --> 02:04:59,676
Okay, we're turning back.
Don't lose him!

1340
02:06:00,487 --> 02:06:03,490
What are you staring at?
This ain't a picture show.

1341
02:06:03,656 --> 02:06:04,991
Get the hell out!

1342
02:06:05,158 --> 02:06:07,160
This ain't no place
for the likes of you.

1343
02:06:16,419 --> 02:06:20,840
Lotta strangers snoopin' around
tonight. Be careful.

1344
02:06:21,007 --> 02:06:23,676
What are you, a cop?

1345
02:06:23,843 --> 02:06:25,887
We don't know any of you.

1346
02:06:26,054 --> 02:06:29,849
Get out.
Get out, I said!

1347
02:09:12,178 --> 02:09:15,807
Bos'n, I don't understand
what he's up to.

1348
02:09:16,349 --> 02:09:19,269
He should be taking the dope
straight to the hideout.

1349
02:09:21,187 --> 02:09:26,276
And why go to the junkies
if he hasn't got it yet?

1350
02:09:26,442 --> 02:09:28,945
They don't have
any pure heroin.

1351
02:09:29,112 --> 02:09:31,906
- Inspector!
- Tokura here.

1352
02:09:32,073 --> 02:09:35,285
He picked up a junkie
and took her to a flophouse.

1353
02:09:52,051 --> 02:09:56,514
KOGANE-CHO INN

1354
02:09:59,392 --> 02:10:00,977
I've got it!

1355
02:10:01,769 --> 02:10:04,647
<i>He'll use her as a guinea pig.</i>

1356
02:10:04,814 --> 02:10:08,901
She's in withdrawal,
and he can test it on her.

1357
02:10:43,353 --> 02:10:47,398
- He left the area.
- And the girl?

1358
02:10:47,565 --> 02:10:50,610
Just a minute.
Two men went to check.

1359
02:10:51,569 --> 02:10:53,613
Where to now?
The hideout?

1360
02:10:54,364 --> 02:10:57,867
Wait a minute. The girl's a clue
to what he'll do next.

1361
02:10:58,034 --> 02:11:00,370
<i>He's headed
toward the Isezaki district.</i>

1362
02:11:00,536 --> 02:11:03,414
What? We’re there right now.
From which side?

1363
02:11:03,581 --> 02:11:06,000
Facing Yoshida Bridge,
the left side.

1364
02:11:07,752 --> 02:11:10,046
- Stop here.
- I's a no-parking zone.

1365
02:11:10,213 --> 02:11:11,547
It doesn't matter.

1366
02:11:11,714 --> 02:11:14,884
I've just received word:
The girl's dead.

1367
02:11:15,051 --> 02:11:17,595
Syringe in her hand.
Death by overdose.

1368
02:11:17,762 --> 02:11:18,971
He's coming.

1369
02:11:21,641 --> 02:11:24,477
We found him.
I’m cutting off the radio.

1370
02:12:48,227 --> 02:12:52,273
The guy's a real prize.
To the hideout.

1371
02:12:52,440 --> 02:12:54,567
Excuse me,
you can't stop here.

1372
02:13:28,434 --> 02:13:29,101
Its 12:15 a.m.

1373
02:13:29,101 --> 02:13:31,270
It's 12:15 a.m.

1374
02:14:51,809 --> 02:14:54,604
Hey, I brought the stuff.

1375
02:14:57,148 --> 02:15:00,693
Takeuchi, you're gonna hang!

1376
02:15:27,261 --> 02:15:30,097
We've recovered
another 27,480,000 yen.

1377
02:15:30,264 --> 02:15:33,559
All that's missing
is the 20,000 he spent on heroin.

1378
02:15:33,726 --> 02:15:36,103
We wanted to let you know
as soon as possible.

1379
02:15:36,270 --> 02:15:38,272
Thank you.

1380
02:15:55,748 --> 02:15:57,708
Were we too late?

1381
02:15:57,875 --> 02:15:59,710
Have a seat.

1382
02:15:59,960 --> 02:16:01,253
Please.

1383
02:16:15,893 --> 02:16:20,106
No, please. You're free
to use them until the auction.

1384
02:16:42,753 --> 02:16:45,965
SEIZED PROPERTY

1385
02:17:04,775 --> 02:17:08,279
GINJIRO TAKEUCHI
GETS DEATH SENTENCE

1386
02:17:16,287 --> 02:17:18,080
Thank you for coming.

1387
02:17:18,581 --> 02:17:22,835
He refused to talk
with the prison chaplain.

1388
02:17:23,169 --> 02:17:26,338
He insisted on speaking
to you instead.

1389
02:18:18,516 --> 02:18:21,352
Mr. Gondo, thanks for coming.

1390
02:18:46,585 --> 02:18:48,629
You seem well.

1391
02:18:52,591 --> 02:18:55,010
What are you doing now?

1392
02:18:55,928 --> 02:18:58,556
Making shoes again.

1393
02:19:00,099 --> 02:19:04,144
It's a small company,
but the owner gives me free rein.

1394
02:19:04,895 --> 02:19:10,359
I’m working hard
to rival National Shoes.

1395
02:19:17,283 --> 02:19:19,493
Why are you looking
at me like that?

1396
02:19:20,578 --> 02:19:24,123
I'm going to die,
but I'm not afraid,

1397
02:19:24,290 --> 02:19:27,501
so stop looking at me
so pitifully.

1398
02:19:29,795 --> 02:19:32,882
That's why I refused
to see the chaplain.

1399
02:19:33,048 --> 02:19:35,801
He'd tell me to repent
and pray for mercy.

1400
02:19:35,968 --> 02:19:38,470
Why should I waste my time?

1401
02:19:40,848 --> 02:19:45,102
I'd rather be told the cruel truth

1402
02:19:45,269 --> 02:19:48,314
than be fed gentle lies.

1403
02:19:58,657 --> 02:20:03,078
Speaking of which,
you must be glad I'm going to die.

1404
02:20:03,245 --> 02:20:05,164
Aren't you?

1405
02:20:06,498 --> 02:20:08,626
Why do you say such things?

1406
02:20:08,792 --> 02:20:13,505
Why do you think
we have to hate each other?

1407
02:20:13,672 --> 02:20:15,799
I don't know.

1408
02:20:17,176 --> 02:20:19,887
I'm not interested
in self-analysis.

1409
02:20:21,805 --> 02:20:26,852
But I do know my room
was so cold in winter

1410
02:20:27,019 --> 02:20:29,355
and so hot in summer
I couldn't sleep.

1411
02:20:29,521 --> 02:20:33,484
From my tiny room,
your house looked like heaven.

1412
02:20:34,026 --> 02:20:37,571
Day by day I came
to hate you more.

1413
02:20:37,738 --> 02:20:40,532
It gave me a reason for living.

1414
02:20:47,206 --> 02:20:50,876
Besides, it's amusing
to make fortunate men

1415
02:20:51,043 --> 02:20:54,213
taste the same misery
as the unfortunate.

1416
02:20:56,090 --> 02:20:58,676
Were you really
so unfortunate?

1417
02:21:08,060 --> 02:21:10,813
You want my life story?
Forget it.

1418
02:21:10,980 --> 02:21:15,859
I won't share my tales of woe
to earn your sympathy.

1419
02:21:17,069 --> 02:21:19,738
I'm just glad my mom
died last year,

1420
02:21:19,905 --> 02:21:24,702
so I won't be sickened
by her pathetic slobbering.

1421
02:21:28,455 --> 02:21:32,459
Then why exactly
did you call me here?

1422
02:21:36,839 --> 02:21:42,553
I couldn't stand having you think
I died crying and afraid.

1423
02:21:58,527 --> 02:22:02,364
You think I'm shaking out of fear,
but I'm not!

1424
02:22:02,531 --> 02:22:07,119
It's just a physiological reaction
from being in solitary too long.

1425
02:22:07,494 --> 02:22:10,956
Just leaving the cell
makes me shake.

1426
02:22:14,293 --> 02:22:18,213
I'm not afraid of death.
I don't care if I go to hell.

1427
02:22:18,380 --> 02:22:21,633
My life has been hell
since the day I was born.

1428
02:22:24,553 --> 02:22:29,933
But if I had to go to heaven,
then I'd really start to tremble.

1429
02:23:14,812 --> 02:23:18,190
THE END
