Original subtitles

No, how you stare at me so.

Acting like a complete idiot with the window open like that!

What if someone sees you?

That was the idea!

Get rid of this stuff, and get changed! Time to work.

If your client happens to see you, there goes the job.

Hey, this is mine!

These are pretty good.

I'm gratified to hear you think so.

Whatever. Well?

Yes, I'd like to request that you protect Miss Yuko of the Kataoka family.

Having some difficulty over the successor to the estate?

How did you know?

The chairman of your board of directors, Yoshizo Kataoka, dies,

and someone's after his daughter. I know that much.

Yes, that's correct.

Man, that's a bad scene all right.

I expect it's someone in her immediate circle who's responsible.

Maybe even the mother, for example.

Well, you see, actually...

Miss Yuko is not the real daughter of the late Mr. Kataoka's wife.

All right, why these?

The fact is there's a certain someone you resemble closely.

A certain someone?

It happened ten years ago. Miss Yuko was almost kidnapped one time.

It must have been terribly traumatic for her.

Ever since, she's allowed very few men near her.

Miss Yuko dislikes men?

There's no need for you to worry though. You'll have no difficulty.

The man who rescued Yuko that time...

You're saying I look just like him, right?

Yes. It all happened so quickly.

There were two kidnappers. The man took both of them in the blink of an eye.

He then rescued Yuko, and disappeared without a trace.

All he left behind was a pendant.

Yuko said, "I'm going to keep this with me until we meet once more."

To this date, she's never been separated from that pendant, even for an instant.

How shall I put it? For Miss Yuko, that man was her "knight in shining armor".

Mr. Saeba?

You're asking me to play the part of the knight?

Will you accept then?

Hold on. One important question remains.

Yes?

Is Yuko beautiful?

What do you think?

Okay, I'm in!

Be at ease, for you are now aboard the good ship Ryo Saeba.

As of tomorrow, I become a college instructor for a girls' school.

My good fellow, make the necessary arrangements with the trustees.

Yes, but...

I can't think of a better way to protect Yuko!

Mokkori!

I really wonder if this is a good idea.

Listen, listen. I hear we're getting a new instructor!

When? Listen, listen. I hear we're getting a new instructor!

When? Today!

Today!

What do you mean, "what?" I'm telling you the new teacher starts today!

I'd like a young one!

Probably just an old fart anyhow. I'd like a young one!

Probably just an old fart anyhow. I like the old farts.

Yeah, you would. I like the old farts.

Yeah, you would.

He's here!

Kaori, gave me such strong glasses that it's all blurry, and I can't see well.

My name is Ryo Saeba, and as of today I'll be teaching you social-psychology.

Nice to meet you.

Fresh, young college girls, and they're all looking at me. They're all looking.

Damn, I can't see them well because of these glasses. Damn!

They look delicious!

Sensei, I have a question!

Why did you take your glasses off?

Well, you see, you young ladies are so beautiful it made me self-conscious.

I thought by removing them I wouldn't be able to see, and would be less worried.

C'mon, Yuko, wake up! This instructor is a young one.

No, thanks. I'm not interested.

He's a pretty handsome man.

He's a little nutty, but why don't you just give him a little glance.

I said no thanks!

I'm disappointed. Sleeping in class from the very first lecture.

What's the matter?

Were you dreaming about a knight in shining armor perhaps?

Well, yes.

Sensei, let's go eat lunch.

Certainly, I'll be there a little later.

Let's have curry for lunch.

I heard they put some weird stuff in it.

No way!

What's wrong? Do you have a question?

Oh, not really!

Excuse me!

Let me feed you, Sensei.

Do you mind?

It's a joke!

Oh, right.

Look he's turning red! How cute!

This is fantastic! I'm really glad I became a teacher.

This won't do. I'm her knight. I must have self-control.

Sensei, aren't you going to eat lunch?

I'm in mokkori hot love hell!

Can I help you?

No. No, it's nothing.

She's just adorable.

I even had a chance to talk to him.

We've come for you, young lady.

Take it easy.

Okay, get in.

I wish you wouldn't bother me during my nap.

Where do you think you're taking a nap?!

A knife's no way to pick up a young lady, especially one of my students.

You got a big...

Not so fast!

Up you go!

Are you okay?

What's the matter? It's me, Mr. Saeba.

Right, I know. Please put me down.

Sure, of course. Right, I know. Please put me down.

Sure, of course.

See, I'm not a knight in shining armor.

I haven't been having any such dream.

Hold it.

Why do you run?

Nothing can be solved by running.

Look at that. Now, even your eyes are running away.

Miss, I've come to pick you up.

My goodness, who is this?

If I return without your savior, I will be severely scolded by Mrs. Kataoka.

Wow, what a house!

I just can't do it. I just can't.

Please understand. I'm begging you.

You fail, and that's all you have to say?

If you don't kill her, I guess we'll have to.

But that means everyone will learn about that hit-and-run you were involved in.

Please, not that.

If you don't like it, then you better kill Yuko.

Do that, no one finds out about the hit-and-run, and you get the Kataoka estate.

You're not related to Yuko by blood anyway.

Boy, a room like this in a house like this. Is this really Japan?

Mother, we're home.

Well, what is this, Yuko? Bringing a man with you?

I thought you disliked men.

Madam, this is a teacher from the university.

A teacher?

Things certainly have changed for the worse at that school. Him a teacher?

How rude, Mother!

Rude?

Madam, this man... Rude?

Madam, this man...

Silence, Yotsuya.

Do you understand, Yuko, you are the heiress to the house of Kataoka.

I will be very disappointed if you do not avoid such indiscreet behavior.

Try not to cast shame on me as well.

I never! Bringing a man into the house.

Madam!

I'm leaving this house.

Miss!

Sensei, I'm leaving this house!

Sensei, I want you to live with me, please!

Me?

You really came, didn't you?!

However, I find it difficult to welcome you given the circumstances.

Why? What's the matter?

All of this won't possibly fit into my mansion!

Running away from home means a toothbrush and a change of clothes.

Have them take it all back, right now!

She brought the whole house with her.

Letting a girl like that live with you worries me.

It's different this time.

This time I'm a knight, a knight in shining armor.

Playing knight is okay. But what'll you do if she finds out you're a fake?

If that happens, she's the one who's going to get hurt.

You won't be able to fool her forever.

Excuse me, Sensei.

Hi there. Did you send the trucks on their way?

Yes. About my room...

Oh, right, please wait below. I'll be right there.

Who is she?

Him? He's my younger brother.

His name is Kaoru.

Why, he's so cute. I'll be waiting downstairs then.

Ryo?

Yes?

What happened?

I took a little fall on the stairs.

You must have hit face first.

Sensei, a moment? Please come here and look at this.

This is...

a yo-yo from those Sukeban Deka mysteries!

I mean look at this photograph!

This is a photo from when I was ten years old.

Right, I thought I had seen him somewhere.

Mr. Yotsuya looks like ex-Prime Minister Nakasone.

He looked just like him ten years ago.

Sensei, you're not looking in the right place!

Just kidding. You were cute. Very!

Perhaps I'm not right about this.

I know! His brother might know something.

Are you there, Kaoru?

Yes, it's open.

Excuse me, there's something I'd like to ask you about your brother...

What is it?

It's nothing!

What was that about?

Sensei, your brother was wearing a miniskirt and a bra!

So, you saw?

You just can't keep something a secret forever, I guess.

The truth is, Kaoru is a cross-dresser.

However, I ask that you please keep this to yourself.

I understand.

Oh, brother dear?

If you don't mind?

Okay...

Somehow it looks like you keep getting more cuts and bruises.

What can I say? My brother still likes pretending he's a pro-wrestler.

So that's why you always have the cuts and bruises.

Cuts?

There was a scar on his chest.

Is there something wrong?

Sensei, do have a scar on your chest?

So, your knight had a scar on his chest?

It seems I look just like your knight in shining armor.

Let's say I do have a scar on my chest, that I'm your knight. What then?

Well, I...

I say, no thanks. Well, I...

I say, no thanks.

I don't want to play the knight to a princess who's running from her destiny.

I don't want her to come running to me.

You're right. I'm glad you're not my knight.

All I wanted was a place to run to, somewhere to go in my time of need.

Let me go!

Someone, help...

Help me. Save me, Sensei.

What's that?

Damn!

Drop the gun! Damn!

Drop the gun!

You don't have a prayer.

Son-of-a...

Yo!

I knew you'd come.

But who are you?

You'll get no mercy from them, no matter how far you run.

But if you'll fight, I'll be your knight. That's why I'm here.

That girl's mother is the one who hired us.

No, that's a lie!

It ain't no lie! "Do it where no one'll see." That's what she said.

Aren't you two being a little bit too cooperative?

No, I don't care what happens to me.

Yes, I mean that. So please don't hurt Yuko.

Even if we aren't related by blood...

Hello? Hello?

Yuko's my daughter.

Stop it! What are ya doin'?

It's nice chicken feed.

For our next course, hold this please.

What is this?

Don't drop it!

Okay, your attention please.

Nitroglycerin!

Bingo! That's what's in the bottles!

And now the final touch.

Ta-da! Some very hungry chickens!

And how ferocious they do look.

After all, they haven't had a bite to eat in three days now.

Don't do it! After all, they haven't had a bite to eat in three days now.

Don't do it!

Start!

Stop! We'll talk! We'll tell you the truth!

Get the bottle! My hand's shaking! It's gonna fall!

Okay, I guess. But you sure don't act as tough as you look.

Okay, time to go home. I found out what's going on.

We're going back to the mansion.

Yuko, why did you come home?

Miss!

Yotsuya, where's Mother? Mother?!

MOTHER!

Mother, where are you?

Mother!

Yuko!

Don't come any closer!

Mother, listen to what I have to say!

No, I don't want to hear anything!

Mother!

Forgive me, Yuko.

Yuko...

No, Mother. If you die, who will be left for me to call Mother?

I tried to have you killed,

and yet you would still forgive me?

Mother...

I was selfish only thinking of myself. Yuko, call the police.

I was involved in a hit-and-run,

and I was blackmailed into trying to have you...

That hit-and-run was a frame-up job.

It was all a plot to turn you into their puppet.

They stole a body from the hospital, and tossed it in front of your car.

They took advantage of this to try to have you kill Yuko.

It was a trap designed to allow take-over of the Kataoka Group by

Tsugijiro Akagawa, chairman of a rival cooperation.

If only my plan had succeeded,

I could have manipulated that Kataoka woman,

absorbing her and the Kataoka Group into my own Akagawa Group.

Damn it! Okay, Kataoka bodyguard, it appears extreme measures are in order.

A phone! Bring me a phone!

But, Sir, you're not...

Now, I say!

I understand! Now, I say!

I understand!

With all these idiots, even my coffee begins to taste bad.

Sir, your phone.

No, I don't need it now.

I'm leaving the Kataoka Group alone.

Madam, Miss, I found an interesting article.

"Shot is Fired at Chairman Akagawa"

"Fortunately bullet misses mark and hits coffee cup"

I imagine he didn't miss, but that the cup was his target.

That gentleman was very similar to your knight, I think.

I noticed something was missing after he left.

And there was this memo.

"For my closing fee, I now take back an object I once left behind."

"Saeba"

Ryo Saeba was my knight after all.

It's too much! That girl really believes I'm your younger brother now.

What's the harm? We're talking about a young lady here.

Ryo, were you really that girl's...

Well, who knows?

If I told you the truth, you might get jealous.

What?

Tell me, tell me, Kaori. Who is "Chiemi"?

A friend from my high school days. She's a stewardess.

All right! Introduce me!

No way. Chiemi came to me for help, and I can do without you.

But isn't she being chased by that pair of goons

because of some weird items that were put in her bag without her knowledge?

You better let me help you on this one!

If you plan on going out with Chiemi, I better warn you she's not for everyone.

Don't look at me if things get crazy!

See you then!
