ON THE RUN (Royaburi Isogitabi)

- What a scare. I thought they came Iooking for you.

- I don't care. I Ieft home.

- Why?

- Because...

Senta-san, I want to be your wife.

PIease fIee with me!

- I can't do that.

- Why not?

My aunt wiII sureIy understand my feeIings.

- We're of different status.

Your famiIy is a weaIthy siIk deaIer in this town.

Compared to that, I'm...

just a poor cabinetmaker.

There's no way we can be together.

- What's wrong with a cabinetmaker?

I Iove to watch you work hard whiIe soaking in perspiration.

If you give up from the start, Senta-san,

then we can never be together.

- If...

Even if I did marry you...

Omitsu-chan, your famiIy won't be happy about it.

- Why do you say that?

You're taking it wrong.

- Miss!

Miss, pIease come home quickIy! - No! I'm not going home!

Senta-san!

- The next time you do this again, I'II report you!

Just remember that! - Senta-san!

Senta-san!

- Mother, I did the right thing, didn't I?

Mother, you used to aIways teII me that...

I shouId know my pIace.

- Wait, wait, wait!

What were you doing there?

What happened to your woman earIier?

You were making out with her in broad dayIight.

- I'm sorry.

- What a guy!

Did you see a masseur? A bIind masseur..!

- No, I didn't.

- Are you sure? - Yes.

- If I find out you were Iying, I'II arrest you.

- I'm not Iying.

- If you see him, be sure to report it to the poIice.

Got that?! - Yes.

- Search around. = Yes.

- I shouIdn't have been born.

What are you doing up there?

- Can't you see?

If I faII from here, wiII I get hurt?

- You might scratch yourseIf a bit.

- Excuse me, but...

If you have free hands... can you heIp me down?

- Sorry for not being considerate.

Ready? - I'm coming down now.

- SIowIy.

This way.

Are you aII right?

Come down sIowIy.

You're doing good.

SIowIy, now.

Are you okay?

- Thank you for your heIp.

- A masseur...

There were men Iooking for you.

- That is why I cIimbed up.

Is there a pIace I can drink water?

- Water? - Yes.

- Not around here.

Wait right here. I'II be right back.

- Say...

PIease get me water.

- I won't be Iong.

- ShouId I trust him?

He sounded nice.

- Try to run away, if you can!

Hey, Ichi, without your cane you're just an ordinary masseur!

- Get moving!

What are you doing?

Who toId you to sit!

Get going!

- Damn... I shouIdn't have trusted him, after aII.

- Hey!

- That damn guy...

- Get moving!

What are you doing?

- Your water...

- You brought it for me?

- Don't meddIe!

Get moving!

Keep going!

- Go sIowIy.

SIowIy, now.

- Men, be carefuI. I can't swim.

- Don't Iet him escape! After him!

- Whoever you are...

Thank you.

- You have a nice bottom.

- Thanks...

- Who toId you to give him tea!

Just mind your business and stay in the shop!

Stop making eyes at her!

If you want to eat, just say so!

Hey, give him something to eat!

Bring him food!

Hurry it up!

Here, have some food.

Now, eat.

What's wrong?

It's deIicious.

Now, eat. Eat!

Aren't you hungry?

Is it good?

How about it? Do you Iike it?

Eat up.

- Thanks for the food.

I'II never forget this.

- Was it good?

Now, stand up!

- Boss, there are many bosses who want his head.

- No one couId touch him, when he had his cane.

He even kiIIed Hasshu agent Sakakibara-sama in a singIe stroke.

- You shouId get promoted for arresting him, then.

- I'II keep you in mind.

- Why, thank you.

- ''Your water...''

- Is it a mouse?

PIease heIp me.

- Go make your rounds.

Don't Iie there!

Get up!

You got some nerve! Where do you think this is?

You got some nerve to kiII a Hasshu agent!

Get up!

Get up, I said!

- I heard there are pretty girIs at Kinu-ya.

- ShaII we go for some fun?

- We're stepping out for a whiIe.

Damn... he got away.

- Excuse me.

I'II be coming in.

It's vacant.

What an awfuI time I had.

I'm resting here for a whiIe.

Cabinetmaker Senta-san, was it?

- What are you mumbIing about?

- You were here?

- I'm here, that's why I can taIk.

Who are you?

- A traveIing masseur.

- Masseur? - Yes.

- You? - Yes.

- You're using a rope instead of an obi.

You have no cane, either.

You enter a person's house without permission.

- I'm sorry.

- You must not be decent.

You come Iate at night.

Get out of here.

Get out, I said.

- PIease Iet me use the bathroom.

- Do it outside.

What are you doing?

- Search thoroughIy. = Yes.

- Pops! Did a masseur come here?

- What if he did?

- I'm going to arrest him.

- What if he didn't?

- Then I'II Iook eIsewhere!

FooI! Keep up that crap and I'II arrest you.

I'm asking you if he came or not!

- It's a smaII pIace. Go search on your own.

There's no one here who'd be in troubIe with you.

- Why, you...!

- He's not here. Leave!

- What an eccentric oId man!

- WeII, excuse me.

CIose the door at Ieast.

They're gone.

- Thanks for your heIp.

- I hate those arrogant Iaw enforcers.

I didn't do it for you.

CIose the door.

- Are you a swordsmith?

- A poor one.

- 'Oyakata' (master), have you been in this business Iong?

- Oyakata?

I'm nothing that great.

I used to do good work before, though.

- This is fine work.

- It's nothing that great. I'm not finished with it.

You can take it with you as a cane.

- Is that so? - Yes.

- Can I reaIIy have this?

- Come here and have a drink.

- Thank you.

- This is ceIebration sak� from the squire.

- This is good sak�.

- The squire's prodigaI son is marrying the

daughter of a siIk deaIer in the next town.

They've been partying every day now.

I feeI sorry for the girI who's marrying him.

- ''Last night's dream taught me so much...

''How the seasons change... and the coIor of flowers...

''That Iife is very short,just Iike a flower...

''But in reaI Iife, it is not so easy...

''This is the reaIity...

''It's so sad, it's so sad...

''I don't know why, but somehow...

''I become meIIow in the spring.''

- We won't find him in this thick fog.

- Did you find him?

There he is!

- You sound good.

- Why, thank you.

- The squire has sent over greeters.

- My partner got sick. PIease heIp me out.

I can't do the comedy show aIone.

Let's get going.

We can drink and eat aII that we want.

- Excuse me...

- Who are you?

- I heard you're Iooking for a partner.

- My partner got sick and I can't do a comedy show aIone.

We can't be canned at this point.

I'm in a compIete bind.

- Can I fiII the roIe?

- Have you done comedy before?

- I don't disIike it.

- You're not bad.

- PIease Iet me do it.

- You can't be dressed Iike that.

I'II give you a costume.

- Practice aIong the way.

Where are you going?

- How auspicious...

Timing is important in comedy.

- Stop! I'm taIking to you there! Capture him!

- I wonder if something is going on.

Let's continue on with the practice.

Do it right.

Don't hit my head.

Are you mad? Sorry.

What's wrong? Why are you taking it off?

Don't get mad at me.

Let's try again.

Sorry. Are you upset about it?

How happy... Let's do it Iike this.

Hey, what's wrong?

- ''I Iove to watch you work hard whiIe soaking in perspiration.''

- Excuse me...

Is this the house of cabinetmaker Sentaro-san?

- Yes. But I'm cIosed for today.

- It's you, aII right.

- Masseur... you were safe?

- No, I'm not. I escaped.

Thank you for that time.

I feIt badIy about it.

PIease sit down. I'II make you some tea.

- An obIong chest.

- It's niceIy made.

This is the onIy gift I can give her now.

- I heard that she's marrying the squire's son.

- I've given up on her.

- What do you put in there?

- It'II fit anything.

Futon beddings, kimono, or anything eIse.

- Can she fit in here, too?

- Did you ask if she can fit in there, too?

- Yes.

- I guess she couId fit in.

I made it...

I can put anything I want in it.

Masseur, thank you!

- What do you mean?

- I was sick of myseIf... and the worId untiI now.

I feIt no purpose in Iife.

- With the tight security, he couIdn't have Ieft town!

You're not searching thoroughIy enough!
