Saeba, move to a private room!

I'm going to assign a nurse to you,

and put you under round-the-clock observation!

No visitors allowed!

I may be hospitalized,

but I am going to meet a lady so I can't afford to neglect my appearance.

A job's a job, but ending up hospitalized is a bit extreme.

That Kaori is just too strong for her own good!

You mean our client is that Takatsuka?

The one called Japan's leading captain of industry, Mr. Hideji Takatsuka?

Yes, you are well informed.

He was in this magazine.

He's the old fogey known as Japan's leading eccentric.

I'm out of here. No way I'm working for some old dude.

Now, shall we discuss the particulars?

Well, the fact is that that eccentric, old...

I mean, Mr. Takatsuka has been saying some very worrisome things of late.

Mr. Takatsuka was hospitalized until only recently.

I don't know what he is thinking,

but he has stated that he wants to give half of his fortune to Yoshimi Iwai,

the nurse assigned to care for him during his stay there.

Half of his fortune? That must be several billion yen.

Ten billion yen at least, I'm sure.

Ten billion yen?! What a lucky girl!

I wonder about that.

I don't know. Some people around her might not like it.

That nurse could get killed if she's not careful.

You live up to your reputation, Mr. Saeba.

The fact is, the reason I asked you to come today is...

I know. You want me to protect that nurse, right?

Yes! Once admitted to the hospital, just exhibit your normal behavior,

and I am certain she'll be assigned to you as a matter of course.

By Ryo's normal behavior you mean...

Flirting with my angel in white.

Flirting with my angel in white.

Okay, that's enough, you pervert!

Don't you be thinking what you're thinking!

I'm against violence! Let's talk it over!

I'm so sorry.

Did you break it?

Can you believe it?

But now that things have come this far,

you better believe I'm going to be flirting with my angel in white.

Just a second. Now that I think about it,

I don't even know what this Yoshimi Iwai looks like.

Oh, no! She's being assigned to the likes of me,

so she could be some bulldog of an old lady with thirty years in nursing!

No!

Excuse me!

My beautiful mokkori angel!

Nice to meet you. I'm...

Yoshimi Iwai, right? Nice to meet you.

I don't believe it! How did you know?

I know who all the beautiful women are.

I just know we're going to get along, Mr. Saeba.

I'll do my best to care for you. Thank you so much.

The pleasure is all mine.

Ta-da! A little gift on this occasion of our acquaintance.

For me?

The red roses of passion?

I am deeply touched!

Now I get it. I'm starting to understand the old man's feelings.

Say, you must be really good to be assigned a difficult patient like me.

Me?

I'm always goofing up. I'm just a beginner.

You're just being modest.

I spy an angel's tush.

Pervert!

I'm sorry!

Okay, normal.

A thermometer?

I'm sorry!

Don't swallow that!

I already did.

Give it back to me! Hurry!

That was a purgative!

A purgative?

I'm starting to feel it!

These flowers were blooming in the flowerbed in the courtyard.

They were pretty, so I brought you some.

They sure are pretty.

See? Aren't they pretty?

I'm sorry!

I'm sorry. I'm so clumsy.

I had no idea you were down there, Mr. Saeba.

It's okay, okay. Don't worry about it.

I'm going to give you a shot. It might sting a little bit.

What's wrong?

Oh, no! I put it right through the vein!

I'll try it again.

No problem, no problem.

Oh, no! This time I did it to the artery!

I'll get it this time.

I don't think that's it either!

I messed up again!

Please let me have it. I'll do it myself, okay?

Mr. Hoshiba, please go to Treatment Room 3.

Okay!

Okay, I'm done.

I'm so sorry. You're good at this.

I guess this isn't the first time you've had trouble giving shots.

That's right. It's happened five times.

No, six, if I include you,

and three times with intravenous drip injections.

I'm risking my life here.

That old man I was caring for last week sure was impatient.

He said the intravenous injection was taking too long,

but when I sped it up he started feeling bad all of a sudden. What a commotion.

You don't mean Hideji Takatsuka, do you?

Do you know him?

Well, not that well.

After all that, why did that old man still want to give her money?

A visitor perhaps?

Yes?

Stop, don't open the door! Get back!

Hey!

This ain't over!

Are you okay?

Now I think I understand what kind of guy you are.

That's why I was assigned to you, right?

Well, it's...

It's all right. Even if you are a yakuza, to me you are just a patient.

I will devote all of my effort to your care until you are released.

I won't let anyone hurt you. As long as you are here, I will protect you.

Somehow the story's all backwards, but boy am I happy.

Really? A killer's already shown up?

It happened just a while ago. I politely asked him to leave.

What about at night?

Not bad.

Hey!

What are you going to do if she's attacked in her own room?

You can't move around much with your leg like that.

For her I would crawl if I had to.

The nurses' dorm of my dreams...

Nurses' what?

What was that?

Excuse me!

What's up with the bedding?

I'm staying here beginning tonight.

You could be attacked again at night, you know?

Just a second!

Who are you?

Are you actually serious?

If you've come here to visit, I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

He's under round-the-clock observation, and no visitors!

Stop! Come on, Ryo, say something!

Please go home!

Geez! Well, don't say I didn't warn you.

She must really be exhausted.

Mr. Saeba, don't run away. I'll give it my best.

I'll protect you until you're released.

She's so dedicated to her patient.

I'm not going to run away or anything, so don't worry.

It's a fire!

Yoshimi, it's just the alarm clock.

Mr. Saeba, run! It's a fire! Yoshimi, it's just the alarm clock.

Mr. Saeba, run! It's a fire!

Mr. Saeba, run! It's a fire! Yoshimi settle down!

Yoshimi settle down!

You've got to escape through this window!

Hey, come on! Wait, wait!

No! I don't want to run away!

What am I doing?

That's one radical nurse.

Are you certain?

Yes, I'm ready!

She did it.

Yoshimi, good job!

I don't believe it! I did it!

You did it! I don't believe it! I did it!

You did it!

I forgot.

What's this? You get an eighty percent.

Three weeks already? No one has come after her since that time.

Did you peel it, Yoshimi?

The core!

I'm sorry! I'm not good with my hands.

I'll peel another.

Thank you!

It's good.

It tastes all the better for the love and devotion you put into peeling it.

I don't know what to say.

But thank you. You're only the second person to eat an apple I peeled.

I mentioned him before, Mr. Takatsuka.

Oh, old Mr. Takatsuka!

He ate them without saying a word. Five of them.

And then all he said was thank you.

He seemed tough, but I realized he is really a very kind person.

So I put all my effort into caring for him.

But you messed up giving him shots, and got him good with the intravenous drip.

You're so mean!

What's going on with those two?

Don't!

You'll be a full-fledged nurse soon, and you're making fewer mistakes.

I'm a failure as a nurse.

I was thinking... I wish Mr. Saeba could just stay in the hospital.

She's beautiful!

I understand your feelings well. I was thinking the same thing.

Really?

Oh, yes.

So, are you going to break your leg again for me?

Certainly, as many times as...

What the heck am I saying?!

What in the world?

What's that?

Ryo, above you!

What?!

Run!

SAFE!

Mr. Saeba...

Ryo, are you okay? Mr. Saeba...

Ryo, are you okay?

Yeah, just my cast got pin-cushioned.

I think someone did this deliberately.

Someone tried to get you again?

Please have a peaceful rest.

I will stay up all night to protect you from now on. And I WILL protect you!

Right...

Visiting time is over.

I'm not leaving. If it hadn't been for me earlier today...

Very well, together the two of us will be that much stronger.

A little disappointing considering all that enthusiasm.

And who are you after?

Who are you?

Hold it! You'll get a new air-vent if you move.

Okay, I think you're going to tell us who hired you.

Son-of-a...

Damn!

Wait!

Be quiet!

Sure, I'm sorry.

Good enough.

Quiet...

Boy, and she doesn't even know she's the target.

I don't get it. Why was I sleeping in the closet?

Miss Iwai, there's something I want you to do.

Yes, what is it?

As I was making my rounds this morning,

I discovered that your patient has a heart disease.

Mr. Saeba has heart disease?

His condition is at the point where he could have a heart attack at any time.

No!

Just to be safe,

I'd like you to get some nitroglycerin out of the pharmaceuticals storage room.

I understand. Right away!

"Nurse Mishandles Nitroglycerin and Dies in Explosion", is what it will say.

Mr. Saeba has heart disease?

How stupid I am! I've been with him round-the-clock and I didn't notice.

What's wrong? Why in such a hurry?

I'm getting some nitroglycerin. The doctor says he needs it for Mr. Saeba.

Nitroglycerin? The explosive?

She was so upset. I wonder why?

What's the matter?

Yoshimi was in a big hurry to get some nitroglycerin.

I wonder if the doctors here are trying to blow you up or something?

Nitroglycerin? To blow me up?

Oh, no!

Let's see, nitro. Nitroglycerin...

No...

There it is!

That's not it.

Good.

Woops!

Mr. Saeba...

I made it.

I'm certain the doctor who asked you to get this was our killer in disguise.

His plan was to make it look like you had blown yourself up

after carelessly dropping the nitroglycerin.

Me? Die in an explosion?

I'll blow up the cozy pair.

Here's some nitroglycerin for you!

Scary!

I guess those were duds.

Damn!

Cast-footed Kick!

It was me... It was me he was after?

That's right.

I'm sorry. You've been in danger on my account all along.

I'm so sorry. But why was I...

I think you'd better ask Takatsuka that one.

That old man?

Right.

I apologize for putting you through so much trouble, Yoshimi.

The man who tried to kill you used to be my son's secretary.

I'm sure my son put him up to it.

I thought I was helping you,

but instead all I did was put you at the mercy of some greedy vultures.

I am very sorry. However, my feelings remain unchanged.

Yoshimi, you're still willing to accept my gift, aren't you?

I'm not sure.

Why do this when all I did was care for you for one week?

I didn't do a good job at that.

You treated me with the utmost kindness,

a stubborn old man who was a total stranger to you.

Your behavior was so extremely refreshing to me.

You will accept, won't you??

No.

Why not?

But why?

With this much money, you could live a life of ease without having to work!

To continue working as a nurse is my dream.

You can still be a nurse even if you accept. Go ahead and accept.

No, I know I'll just give up if I go ahead and accept the money.

If I keep making mistakes and get all depressed,

I know I'll take the easy way out.

That's what I fear.

As I treated both you and Mr. Saeba,

I felt as if our hearts and souls had come in contact.

When that happened, I realized I made the right choice in becoming a nurse.

The relationship between nurse and patient is a wonderful thing.

Right now I'm still a clumsy nurse,

but at some point, I just know I'll become a first-rate one. That's why.

No, this won't do. I've made a decision.

Even if it means Yoshimi will still be a target?

Well, but...

Then, how about using the money in a way that will make Yoshimi happy?

I see, but how should I use it?

How about building a nursing school?

Great idea, and you could include a scholarship program.

Mr. Takatsuka, I would be much happier that way.

Please consider it my request.

All right, since that's what you want, but there's a condition.

I want you to quit your job at the hospital.

What can you be thinking? Do you want to destroy her dream?

I'm not finished!

Right, I'm sorry.

I want you to be the first scholarship student.

I want you to return to school again so that you can become the ideal nurse.

You'd do that for me?

Yes, I'd be delighted to accept your offer.

When I graduate, please allow me to care for you.

When you graduate, I'll be waiting.

Good luck.

When you become that first-rate nurse, I promise I'll come to visit you.

That's a great idea!

I'll be happy to help you break your arms and neck this time,

not to mention your legs.

Please visit, okay? I'll be waiting.

So will we.

Welcome, Miss Angel!

Wow! A blonde vision!

She's a sweeper from abroad, and I'm a sweeper from Japan.

All right, an international relationship!

Not happening! Her boyfriend is a computer. It's smarter than you!

And rumor has it that she's an angel from Hell.

What are you saying? The only one who can save her is me!

She's going to be my mokkori loving angel.

See you then!
