Have your tried this before’?
Can't tell if it taste good or not.

This is the famous Hawaiian food...

Graptoveria Fanfare!

Excuse me'?

You know, the name of my favorite cactus.

What, you just remembered now?

Sorry about that.

What's the topic now?

What’?

We're discussing Akiko's trip
to Hawaii last month.

You okay Reiko?

Sorry I was just spacing out.

So Hawaii's great... huh'?

Yes.

Dance the hula'?

Not at my age.

Age doesn't matter.

Maybe for you, Reiko.

But I prefer a walk along the beach.

And shopping-

I bet the sea was lovely

Unbelievable.
I've never seen water so blue.

Me neither. I never tire of Hawaii.

Right?

Well, shall we'?

Looks delicious.

KICHIJOJI STATION

MIYOSHI STATION

See you tomorrow.

Good night.

Good night.

So you're home.

You didn't pick me up.

Sorry I went out today

Seeing friends again?

What do you mean, "again"?

And dinner’?

Not yet.
Why don't you take a bath first?

Wbkana residence.

Hi, what's up'?

Really?

Congratulations!

Okay you take care now.
Bye.

Dear, listen!

What’?

Um...

Oh yeah, it's Kosuke.

Kosuke's having a baby!

Miyukfs in her third month!

Really? That's wonderful news!

I'm so happy!

A grandchild! Granclohilcl!
R/'Jlwafll we do'?

You're going to be a grandpa!

That's great.

Did you tell them'?

Yeah.

Are they okay?

Your mom can be puzzling at times.

She is okay

I'm not feeling too well,
so I'm going to bed.

0K8)’-

- Good night.
- Good night.

What is that?

V\/here'd you learn to do that?

Hawaiian dance... huh'?

Want to go... to Hawaii?

What’?

I can't promise anything yet.

But in this recession...

the clients are swarming to
small companies like mine.

We never went to Hawaii for
our honeymoon as planned.

I've always felt bad.

But we've got debts to pay

I'll make it work somehow.

First... we should celebrate.

Let's invite Miyuki's parents out to dinner.

A nice restaurant.

It'd be wonderful
if vve could really go to Hawaii.

Don't forget to pick me up.

I won't.

l'd like a girl.
l'd like to hold a girl.

Boys are cute, too.

I know.
Our boys were too, once.

Hello?

Hi, Mom.

Yeah.

You can tell'?

That's right.
Can you spot me ¥30,000?

You're hopeless.

But your timing couldn't be better.
Must be a talent.

Why don't I meet you at lidabashi, then’?

Okay see you.

Oh... thank God.

It's not my business but...

Miyuki seems the type to change
a lot in a domestic setting.

You're smoking a lot.

Please quit. It's bad for you.

I don't plan to live forever.

But my big brother's done okay

considering he was a shut-in.

A "shut-in"?

Something wrong?

Know what, Shunpei?

You're probably the only one
I can tell this to but...

I've been terribly forgetful lately

I'm worried it could be...

You're getting old.

I saw on TV that if you're aware of it

then it's not Alzheimer's.

l forget stuff all the time... normally

Yeah?

You're probably right.

I'd better get going.

You've got classes, right'?

Mm, Mom'?

Huh?

Drat. I thought I'd fool you.

So that's your strategy
Pretend to be forgetful, huh'?

Use it sparingly

Thanks, Mom.

If you get yourself a girlfriend,
you tell me first.

Okay?
- I know.

- And study hard a year again.
- I know.

- Don't stay back.
- I know.

How're you feeling?
No problems?

You tell me, Mom.
This is all new to me.

The first grandchild for both families.
It's very exciting.

Yes, very

Thanks.

Right?

Graptoveria Fanfare.

Graptoveria Fanfare...

Grapto... veria.

H6)’-

Graptoveria Fanfare...

Hey Mom.

Mom.

What is it, dear’?

You were mumbling.
Knock it off.

What'? I didn't say anything. Right'?

Why would I mumble?
Don't kid around.

I was just thinking.

V\Ath "Michiru" being so slender,
I was thinking...

she needs to eat a lot

so her baby girl will come out healthy

Tell me, Michiru...

Hold it, Mom.

Just hold it.

Who's Michiru’?
You mean, Miyuki?

And why a girl’?

We don't know its gender yet.

No... I didn't mean that.

I simply want us all to get along well.

To get along well with Michiru,

and with Michirdsfather and mother.

It's more fun that way

Otherwise, I worry

I worry that I'll get up one morning
to find my family all apart.

A baby's coming, so we should
all get together on occasion.

I know we can't be together all the time.

Shunpei, I just don't want to see
our family get separated.

First thing tomorrow, let's see a doctor.

Let me turn on a light.

Miyuki cou|d've consulted with me
a little more about things.

She's not endearing at all.

Thanks for coming.

She seems OK and healthy

but better to be safe than sorry

She'll be fine.

Your mom had an appetite this morning, too.

Yeah? Then I'm sure she's fine.

So'? R/'Jhere are we going'?

MIYOSHI HOSPITAL

ls everyone here that needs to be'?

No... doctor. ShunpeFs not here.

This is everyone.

Not the whole family

Go ahead.

This is the CT scan we just took.

Here.

Can you see the white shadows?

We were able to confirm 7 of them.

But there may be smaller
or less visible ones.

The largest is ping-pong ball size and
is likely putting pressure on memory nerves.

R/'vith a tumor this big, her ability
to lead a regular life...

is, frankly surprising.

Ordinarily it's accompanied by a bit of pain.

And some impediments
to speaking ability

As for where to go from here...

I'll need to take some more detailed tests

back in CT room.

A full body scan.

Please wait here.

I can say certainty that it is a brain tumor.

It's of significant size.

We need to be careful of symptoms
like she just showed.

If you could admit her to the hospital today...

Hold on a second.

I mean...

it's not like she has a limited
time to live, right’?

She can be cured if treated?

No doctor likes to give numbers
about life expectancy but...

we could be looking at
no more than one week.

One week.

Isn't that a little bit too sudden?

As l mentioned earlier, the tumor
is significantly large.

Enoephaloma

Sit here for a minute.

Let me take that.

Oh... thank you.

What did the Doc say’?

He's still not fully sure of all the details.

But he says one week.

One week what?

It's highly likely the tumor
spread from another internal organ.

The results of the full-body CT...

No... what does he mean by "one week‘?

I don't know! lfsjust what
I heard from the doctor.

I mean, ifsjust a little memory loss.

She's normal right now.

And even if it were Alzheimer's...

why would we be talking "one week"?
It makes no sense!

I told you I don't know!

What a relief that both you and
Kosuke checked out fine.

I worried about what
would become of our family

I'm unable to fake your cah' right now.

Please leave your name
and message after the tone.

Hey Shunpei. I keep calling.

It's an emergency
Call me back right away

What's wrong?

I need to get her lunch.
I'll go buy something.

Take the car. Hey!

Kosuke, why the worried face?

Times like these, smile.

Excuse me.

What kind of |.\/. is that?

It's Glyceol and steroids.

It reduces swelling in the brain,
and provides temporary relief.

Something wrong?

No... just asking. We didn't hear
anything from the doctor.

Glyceol and steroids.

I'll leave you a number where
you can reach me if you need to.

We must leave for a bit.

Yes, that's fine.

Kosuke.

Kosuke. I'm staying.

Shunpefs coming. We all need to
sit clown and talk about the future.

I know.

We'll return shortly

CHINESE CUISINE TIANJIN

Stop it. You can't hold your liquor.

Is that you, Shunpei'?

Just keep on that street

and you'll see the restaurant sign.

It's a yellow sign, I think.

Please refrain from using your cell phone

as a courtesy to other customers.

I don't see any other customers.

Show a little flexibility

Dad, it's okay

It's not okay

I hate people who just follow
rules without thinking.

Nevertheless, Sir...

Sorry I'll be off soon.

See it'? Now hurry

Soon is no good.

Still harping? He's off!

Dad, Dad! Just calm down.

Excuse us.

Sorry Kosuke.

Guess I can't order another beer.

Probably not.

So it was rough, huh'?
Mom screamed?

Excuse me.
Bottle of beer, please.

He got one.

Yeah.

What'? Something wrong'?

No.

Well, cheers.

It's no time for cheers.

Are you stupid?
Think about the situation.

What do you mean?

Just don't talk to mom about her illness.

Hide it’? Why’?

Dad and I decided, that's why

She's weaker than you think.

If you tell her, she'll despair.

Even if you do, I doubt she'll
understand in her condition.

For now, we await tomorrow's test results.

And vve can't break down, either.

So take care of yourself.

You sure are fired up.

Should we huddle up and shout...
"Let's do it!"

It's the hospital.

- Why are you keeping me here?
- Hello.

Don 'f touch mes'

Mn Wakana? ifs Nurse Murakami.

- Please get here quickly!
- Don't touch me!

Of course. We'll be right there.

Excuse me!
l'd like to pay the bill, please.

Isn't Miiyuki coming'?

I think you know she's pregnant,
don't you’?

That'll be ¥18.50.

So'?

Just 3 months, right'?

The wife of the eldest son.
Shouldn't she pay Mom a visit?

Thank you.

And another thing.

What's with you’?

What about money’?

Money?

If she needs surgery it's going to
cost a pretty fortune.

Dad acts like a big shot president

but that company earns nothing.

But my dependable big brother
will take care of things.

Whafre you doing’?

Waiting for you two.

Our apologies.

shunpei!

You're late.
Honestly where's your family loyalty'?

Well, mom seems fine.

Yeah, give me a cigarette.
Did you see the smoking area?

Let's grab a smoke.

What’?

Shunpei isn't carrying any today

Sorry

And you don't smoke anyway Mom.

Of course he has cigarettes!

Do you know hovv hard I've tried
to make him quit?

Mother, please. Try to relax.

'Who are you?

Shunpei.

Help your mother to the bathroom.

All right.

Mom quit smoking just before
she got pregnant with you.

She was a pretty heavy smoker.

Oh. I didn't know that.

V\Ath just Shunpei accompanying her,

I'd better go check up.

But when I finally got dad to
buy me an ice-cream cone...

I went to lick it and plop!
It fell to the ground.

Nice going, Mom.

Boy was I upset. Really

If you're done with the bathroom

then get back to bed.

Oh... sorry

Mom just got to talking about old times.

Come sit clown and relax, Bro.
You're too tense.

Why sit over there’?

Continue, Mom'?

My family was a real mess
when I was growing up.

It wasn't happy

So I vowed not to repeat that
with my own family

I wanted a fun, cheerful home.

I have two sons of my own, you know.

Yes, I know.

They've both left home

so it's lonely
with just me and my husband.

But with the house payments

there's nothing I can do.

I actually was against buying a home
way out in the suburbs.

There's no benefit at all
being so far away from Tokyo.

My husband's not here so
I'll tell you a little secret.

He's never been able to earn any money

Not as an employee, and especially
running his own company

I worked part-time for him.

Remember how Kosuke became
a shut-in during middle school?

I quit working so I could at home with him.

But the family finances got worse.

I wonder if he was bullied at school.

He never answered
when I asked him about it.

He'd just say "Shut up!"

That was a painful time for me.

But I blame your father for that.

None of that would've happened

if he'd been more responsible.

He talked a lot,
but was ultimately not dependable.

My friends all had nice clothes
and nice handbags.

They looked so happy with all of
their grandchildren.

They took trips each year.

I was so jealous.

Just once, I would've liked to have
taken a family trip to Hawaii.

But you know... I never want to
part with my husband.

It's not easy
but I really love the guy

Hear that, Dad?
That's Mom speaking from the heart.

You really going'?

I'll return in the morning.

Shunpei, you can skip school
for a day So tonight...

You stay with mom, Dad.
It's what we decided, right'?

Tomorrow morning, then'?

I'll be here. I said I would.

Mom was pretty adorable tonight,
don't you thinK?

She wasn't all neurotic.

She was more like a baby

Maybe we're the crazy ones, not Mom.

What’?

Hey Kosuke?

Mom 's insisting on a cigarette.
What do you suggest?

Don't give her one.
Figure that out for yourself.

Hey Kosuke?

Sorry but before work tomorrow...

Yes, I'll drop by

Why else am I staying in our house?

Thanks.
That really puts me at ease.

Okay good. I'm glad you're at ease.

Can you really make it?

Want me to call again tomorrow morning
just to confirm?

I will call you tomorrow morning.

That's okay It's morning already

Look... that's enough of this, all right'?

Sorry

Um...

about mom's hospital bill.

I know.

I'll handle it.

Hey Shunpei.

Come on, get UP!

I'm tired of saying it.

Hey get UP-

Shunpei, get UP-

Hurry and get ready to go to the hospital.

Yo, Bro'?

What’?

Stop pounding your bed at night.

I couldn't sleep at all.

That's a lie. You slept soundly
all night and way into morning.

No seriously I couldn't sleep.

You're even in your pajamas.

Changing into pajamas is normal.

'Who kept calling last night? Dad?

Who else?

Why?

Mom wants a smoke. What do I do’?

Just tiny things like that.

Let her smoke, for God's sake.

What does it matter?

What do you mean?

Nothing.

Tell me.
I may have to kick your ass.

Don't look so damn scary

Fine. Just hurry and get ready

Know what?

What now?

You act as if it's real hard dealing with
this major family crisis.

But this is not the first time.

Ever since you were a shut-in...

this family has long been broken.

Of course, I can't say I blame you
for going a little crazy

Anyway let's go. Gotta hurry right'?

Hey is this new?
Looks tasty

Yeah.

Morning!

Loud! You're chipper.

Yup. I'm off to Hawaii.

Maybe I'll go, too.

You're about to become a grandma.

Get ready for that first.

You're right. I have to be able to
hold Kosuke's baby

Exactly

Thanks for bringing breakfast.

Looks good.

Hands off. That one's mine.

Selfish.

Well, I've got to go to work.

Oh... you've got to get back, huh'?

Yeah.

Call me with the test results.

Take care, Mom.

I'll see you later.

Oh... Kosuke.

Thanks for everything.

Kosuke, how's your mother doing?

Hanging in there.

Oh. That's good.

Yeah.

Sorry I missed the meeting yesterday

Don't worry about it.

Set up a dinner with Mr. Morino
next week.

I went alone to that cabaret club
the other night.

Alice asked about you.

She wants to see you. She asked me
to give you her card.

You're such a stud.

Anyway make a reservation there.

0K8)’-

Late night, huh'?

You're still up.

Yeah.

How's your mom'?

I guess she's okay

Okay? You mean there's no problem?

Yeah.

I see. That's good.

Oh yeah. Look at this.

UV rays are getting stronger.

So I was looking for a hat,
and found a nice one.

I've got to look after my health.

This one.

Black or beige. Which one's better?

Beige maybe?

It won't look frumpy'?

You think?

Hey are you listening?

I'm thinking of the baby here,
and looking to buy cheap.

I said I liked the beige, didn't I'?

Don't be snarky

Sorry

You seem a little spaced out.

You remind me of your mother.

The other day she called me "Michiru."

That's a little strange.

That's because...

she has a brain tumor.

Medical tests yesterday
revealed a brain tumor.

They thought it could be
in other organs, too.

But today's tests were negative.

lfsjust the brain.

You just said she's okay

Sorry

Listen Miyuki...

if you're feeling up to it...

would you go with me to the hospital?

I don't think in my condition.

Yeah.

You're right.

But if something happens, I'll go.

In terms of money
they can manage, right'?

Yeah.

Well, no.

What do vve have in extra savings?

What's "extra"?

I thought we might spare some
for the medical costs.

I've got to handle this somehow.

We've saved money so hard.

All for the baby right'?

There'll be many expenses.

I don't want this child
to suffer for lack of money

And why don't your
parents ever have any savings?

Your father talked about
wanting a new car.

I found that a little strange.

l think he's still living in the bubble days.

V\Ath just a little effort...

they should be able to save something

without relying on you.

I don't want to be an
irresponsible parent like that.

I'm protecting this child no matter what.

V\Ath that understanding in mind,

hovv much do you need?

Hovv much do you need?

Never mind. Email me later.

I'm not feeling too well so I'm off to bed.

I had a lot of fun. Come again.
Alice.

Times like this... smile.

Hey Bro'? It's me.

Listen.

Dad and mom's finances are unbelievable.

Mom's debts are staggering.

I looked through her desk,
and there's no end to the red.

All these consumer loans.

I estimate it at ¥3,000,000.

Hello? You there'?

I said ¥3,000,000.

Uh-huh.

Gotcha.
See you in the morning.

Later.

Borrowing that much money is one thing.

But who'd lend money
to an old lady like mom'?

11 loan companies, ¥3,000,000.
That's ridiculous.

Now I've gone and banged up the car.

When it rains, it pours.

The mirror broke off. But I got it fixed.

That car's a piece ofjunk.
I'm amazed it's still running.

Right?

Dad.

You knew about this, right'?

I'm sorry

I couldn't do anything.

But I had to protect.

What are you protecting?

And your debts?

If mom has this much, you must, too.

Including company debt,
it's about ¥65,000,000

I'm no expert,

but isn't bankruptcy
your only option here'?

Just be quiet.

How can I'?

Don't you feel sorry for Mom'?

If you declare bankruptcy

your debts are wiped clean, right'?

It's lame, but what choice is there'?

Kosuke...

remember how we re-financecl the house

when you started working?

Well...

the interest rate till then had been high.

We made you our guarantor... remember’?

That's why...

I can't go bankrupt.

If I declare personal bankruptcy...

the debt goes to Kosuke.

How much'?

About ¥12,000,000.

More importantly
have you heard from the doctor'?

About what's next?

No... not really

0K8)’-

Hey Bro'?

You all right'?

Listen, don't go all mental
on us again, okay?

If you go into a shell...

Whafre you talking about?

H6)’-

Bro?

I'm going out.

It's been a long time.

Yeah.

What are you doing’?

We have a lot of matters to deal with.

But we have to save mom first.

What’?

Don't you agree? Huh?

Ow!

Yes, I agree.

I've decided...
I'm going to go all out.

What about you’? Huh’?

All right, I will too.

Thank you.

Please have a seat and
we'll call you when ready

I should have known.
Look, I'm a little busy here.

That's why we came in person.
It's hard to see you.

We wanted to talk away from our mom.

What should vve do next’?

I believe I explained it clearly

Yes, but you can understand
our concern.

You said one week,
which is up in 3 clays.

Quite honestly we're panicky

Actually l was thinking we'd
release her from the hospital.

You were?

Why were you thinking that?

Are you saying she's going to recover?

There's nothing more vve can do

for her by having her here.

In that case, perhaps she'd be happier
in more familiar surroundings.

She could spend her time in more comfort.

I don't quite get what you mean.

You're saying she should
wait to clie at home'?

It's very difficult for me as well... but...

surgery or anticancer drug therapy
is unlikely to help at this stage.

Understood. Could you then write us
a referral for another hospital?

I'm afraid most are full,
particularly brain surgery wards.

I doubt any hospital would accept
a patient in her condition.

There must be some place.
Please.

We're not allowed to name
a specific institution.

You'll have to search on your own.
Is that okay?

Yes.

CT, referral and her chart.

I'll research hospitals, and we'll split up
and make the rounds.

I'll send you the addresses.

Hey! Aren't you going to see Mom'?

I'm counting on you!

V\/hy're you smiling?
And yelling.

Yo, Mom.
How're you feeling?

Yeah.

Hey Shunpei?

I know you wouldn't lie to me,
so let me ask you something.

I've got cancer, don't I'?

No.

You're lying.

I'm not.

Oh yeah.

Mr. Takada, I have a request.

Who's Mr. Takada’?

I want to marry soon.

What’?

Perhaps...

an ex-boyfriend’?

Oops!

What’?

One puff.

That's all you get.

I'm worried about Kosuke.

So I'll give it my best.

You too, Mom.

CHUO MEDICAL UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

I hate to say this, but her symptoms
are quite serious.

Miyoshi Hospital's diagnosis seems correct.

ls there anything else
that you could do here?

Different treatment?

I'm very sorry but I don't think
we can treat her here.

Since you've come here

why don't you work for me a bit?

No... I really need a drinktoday

Very cocky You don't even drink.

Shunpei...

it's been 3 years now
since my ovvn dad died.

Let me tell you about family

Wait. I think I'll pass on this story
if you don't mind.

Oh... okay Sorry

No... forgive me.
I'm being a little selfish here.

I'll be back to work tomorrow.

Hi.

Well, who's this long lost stranger'?

Scotch on the rocks.

say Kyoko?

VWI you hang with me tonight'?

I don't sleep with virgins.

I see. Understood. Sorry

Top Hospitals by Surgery Volume

Miyuki... thanks.

Sure.

Hungry?

I'm fine.

Shunpei?

I was rejected by 2 hospitals today

Can you visit 3 more tomorrow'?

I'll mail you the addresses later.
Can you go'?

Yeah, yeah, leave it to me.

Unlike you, I've got loads of time.

A word of advice, big brother.
Try to relax.

Loosen up a bit, okay?

Or you'll explode again.

Yeah, shut up.
I'm counting on you.

Aye aye, Sir. See you.

Actually we offer our services
as a package.

I'm afraid the explanation
you received was insufficient.

I apologize.

We've arranged for the quickest line
installation possible.

Thank you for your trouble.

I'll see you later.

Hey Wbkana.

No need to return today

What’?

Your mom... needs you, right'?

I'll say you're doing the rounds.

Thanks. I appreciate that.

Just nail the vvining and dining.

Returning from work'?

Yeah.

It's Kosuke.
Do you recognize me’?

What's with you’?

Something happen?

Mom...

I'm sorry for a lot of stuff.

Hm'?

Like what?

All the trouble I've put you through.

Because of me...

you've had some hard times.

I'm sorry

Is that right'?

I forgot.

I'm so forgetful these days.

Kosuke.

Times like this... smile.

Yeah.

I know.

Mom...

I'll take you to Hawaii.

Really?

You know my cactus at home'?

It's very important to me.

You want me to water it, right'?

You're the most dependable
member of this family

I'm entrusting you.

You're full of energy today.

Lucky color is blue. Lucky number, 5!

3rd is Sagittarius.

A good day to share your feelings.

Lucky color is yellow! Lucky number, 8!

In 4th, Aquarius. Hang in there.

Hello.

How longs the wait'?

About 2 hours, maybe 2-and-a-half.

I see.

Please take a number.

It's a difficult predicament.

Yes, I know. But...

I suppose there isn't any possibility
of a cure'?

For a brain tumor, no.

But it is kind of curious.

The steroids seem to have improved
her aphasia.

It might be good to have an MRI done.

It may not be your average brain tumor.

I'm sorry?

Granted the odds slim
but there's a chance it's...

a malignant central nervous system

lymphoma, stemming from the brain.

Sorry what does that mean?

If by chance it is that lymphoma
such-and-such an illness...

are we talking about things
like "a week to live" or...

a disease that kills quickly?

l really couldn't say at this point.

Viewed from about a 5-year span...

average survival rate is not high.

Wait a second. Did you say "5 years"?

The disease sounds terrible.

But in the case of lymphatic malignancy
a cure is possible.

I'm afraid we have no beds available.

We wouldn't be able
to admit her for testing.

That's okay

But...

you're saying I should find a place
that vvill do the test.

Thank you.

Mr. Wbkana.

What number hospital is this?

This is the 10th.

That's impossible.

Sorry I lied. It's the 6th.

That's still amazing. Do you have
the next one lined up'?

No... I planned to search the Net.

I see. Can you wait a little?

Hello? ifs Dr. Kinoshita.

Can you connect me
to Takanawadai Chuo Hospital?

Hf, I'm Dr. Kfnoshffa of
Nfhon Woman's Medical University

May! speak with Dr Kimishima?

Can you go now?

A doctor friend at Takanavvadai
can see you before 3:00.

Can you grab a taxi?

The address.

Do you have money?

For the taxi.

I'm fine.

I have an idiot son just about your age.

I stand behind this doctor.
Very talented.

I wish your mother the best.

Don't give up, okay?

Takanavva, please.

TAKANAWADAI CHUO HOSPITAL

No... we can't rule out the possibility
of malignant lymphoma.

Let's run some tests.

Can you admit her clay after tomorrow'?

ls that okay?

It's why you came... right'?

Thanks.

Today's "Day 5."
There's still time.

Of course.

What about you’?

I picked up mom from the hospital.

She's resting at home now.

Not that.
You're planning something else, right'?

Why say that?

V\/hy’? Because I know my brother.

Don't carry it all inside, okay?

You'll turn into a shut-in again.

Say Shunpei.

To be honest...

ladmire you.

'Who, me'?

You always speak your mind.

Just like mom.

In her case, it's due to illness.

I envy that.

I just...

emailed Alice at the Cabaret Club.

I promised to meet her.

Who's Alice?

Just shut up and listen.

I emailed occasionally

like when I was having a hard time.

I'm such a loser.

What's this? Juicy stuff’?

Sorry I'm a bad guy

No... no, wait. What'?

I can't say anything to Miyuki

so I'm apologizing to you.

Whatever, forget it.
Cheers, man.

Shunpei.

Thanks.

I mean it.

Thanks.

Don't get drunk on one beer.

Huh?

You're not going to cry
Seriously?

Stop it.

This family's a bunch of cry babies.

Whoah! You bought this great bed?

I leased it.

How's the money situation?
Miyuki will surely be pissed off.

Hey I wear the pants in the family

Liar.

Okay I lied, but it's okay

"My Dear Husband, . ..

“We put together a list of sellable items

“should anything ever happen to me.

“Use the money for a funeral.

"1. My pearl necklace,
given to me by my mother'.

“2. My antique music box.

"3. 10 Kimonos.

"4. My piano at my parents' house.

"It's mine so feel free to sell it.

"5. Do not inconvenience the boys
whatsoever

“Reik0_“

What's 5’?

Shunpei found a hospital today

They'll do new tests for us.

When did you startthis?

3 days ago.

You thinkjogging will make you
feel like you're doing something?

That's all wrong, Dad.

Quiet!

Dad, I have to tell you something.

Me, too. We need to talk.

Stop bothering me!

What is it’?

What did Shunpei say’?

He wants to quit school
and come work for me.

Really? That's great.

It might help to have

a character like him around.

I don't know. It's so sudden.

Actually he's a very dependable kid.

More than you, Dad.

For once, I'm glad he was around.

Anyway I'm planning
to make you go bankrupt.

That's the plan.

It'll take some time, but the three of us
will sit clown with a lawyer.

But then...

we'll lose this home.

The home you and mom have cherished.

No... not that.

You're my guarantor.

You mean the ¥12,000,000?

You don't have to worry much about that.

And Dad?

Stay tough. You're master of
the household, you know.

Hawaiian Booklet

Miiyuki!

Kosuke.

Sorry I missed it.

Should you be here'?

What the doc say’?

Everything3 fine.

Great.

You're busy today right'?

Yeah. Sorry

But I need to go home and change.
I don't want to be a stinky father.

Kosuke’?

What’?

Nothing.

Mr. Wekana, this way

We'd like to operate right away
How's tomorrow'?

Operate?

It's called a "biopsy"

We open a small hole
in the temporal region.

And extract tumor tissue.

That will tell us if it's
malignant lymphoma or not.

I see.

Again, it's very sudden.

Something unforeseen has happened.

This is the MRI we just took.

The steroids given at the previous
hospital seem to be working.

The tumor is clearly shrinking.

ls that something to celebrate?

No. The smaller it gets

the more difficult the surgery

Was the treatment at
Miyoshi Hospital mistaken?

It was appropriate for what they saw.

And your wife's condition
seems to be improving.

This is still a disease with few cases.

So the best vvay to treat it has, regrettably
not yet been firmly established.

Is that so'?
I understand.

I leave it to you, Doctor.

You are only glimmer of hope, Doctor.

So I thank you.

See you tomorrow.

Good night.

Hi.

Surgery's starting.

I'll be back when it's over.

R/'Jlwerére you going'?

I've got a lot to do.

Dear?

Yes?

Does this look good on me'?

Never mind how it looks.

I'll just be asleep so it's strange
to say I'll clo my best,

but I will.

Yeah.

Sorry I'm late.
Still in surgery?

You had work'?

No.

You're in a suit. So where?

I've got a lot to do.

What, you too’?

How's mom'?

It's gone 30 minutes longer.

We're at 90 minutes.

OPERATING ROOM

Doctor.

It's definitely malignant lymphoma.

A chance for a cure.

Way to g0.

Congratulations.

Well?

She says there's a chance for a cure.

Yeah?

That's great.

I thought it was all over.

Yeah.

I thought mom was finished.

Well, at least...

we survived the week.

We'll think about the future later.

Yeah.

I don't know what will happen.

But we'll think later.

What's that?

Can't you tell'? The hula.

You're taking me to Hawaii, right'?

Yeah.

You should do it, too.

Which Mom now?

Which Mom what?

I mean, you were saying some
pretty random things before.

Oh my Was I’?

So I can't tell

if you're speaking rationally or not.

Does it matter which?

No... you're right.

Shunpefs on his way

Really?

I haven't seen you together for a while.

I'm so glad.
I love you both so much.

Here.

Miyuki, I'm very ashamed
about all of this.

But let me start.

You know I'm in debt.

And Kosuke is guarantor

for my debt of¥12,000,000.

It's...

It's unforgivably shameful for a father.

Just imagining how much
¥12,000,000 is surely proof...

that l have lost all credibility

But I promise not to cause
any more trouble.

l realize that expression rings hollow
in my case.

But I hope that you will believe me.

I will return what I owe.

So please...

do not give up on Kosuke.

I implore you.

Father, it's all right.

Shunpei made the same request
to me the other day

I promise to pay our debts

so please don't leave my brother.

Shunpei? When’?

About a month ago,
on the day of Mother's surgery

I asked him "Whytoday?"

He said he was too nervous

to wait at the hospital.

But I've decided to let Kosuke handle
all of this as he sees fit.

I'm sure he'll succeed somehow.

He didn't tell you about it'?

About what?

He's been talking to a friend at a
foreign firm about changing jobs.

He got an

informal offer.

The salary boost will allow him
to pay off everything in 5 years.

"I promise you I'll pay it all back,"
he said.

I don't think it's his kind of work.

And it may be tough going.

But you know...

I fell in love with him all over again.

V\Ath Kosuke...

I know he'll pull through for us.

If you'll allow me...

I'd like to visit Mother in the hospital.

I'd like to see her.

Once more.

That's enough. I'm out.

Do it.

You're the worst... Kosuke.

Now the Sun.

It's grandma!
