Hi, there!

Not giving up! Not giving up!

Hi, there!

There's one!

Hi, there!

How impressive he is!

He refuses to accept defeat, gets back on his feet and tries again.

This indomitable fighting spirit! This insatiably lusting heart!

This is it! He is the one!

Please! I beseech you, Master Saeba!

Saeko Nogami referred you to me, that's why I say no.

Look! Look at this! Look!

Saeko already owes me all of these!

Until she pays them,

I absolutely refuse to accept any more job referrals from her!

Couldn't you just...

No!

Ryo, you need to be more businesslike.

It's the first work you've had in a while.

No means no!

I made a decision to take a hard line with Saeko!

I see then...

How piteous that the Mistress has to manage a big mansion all alone.

How piteous...

Just a second!

What did you say, just now?

Something about, "the Mistress alone," something, something...

Yes, two years ago she lost the Master in a traffic accident.

She's been alone ever since.

Meaning she's a widow?

Yes, indeed.

What's she look like?

She has beautiful features. Her glossy chestnut hair is her pride.

Her style?

She's well-proportioned.

Her age?

She's twenty-two.

Twenty-two and a widow?!

Yes, indeed.

I shall accept the job.

Master Saeba!

Ryo?

Since this request comes from Saeko Nogami and none other,

Ryo Saeba must lend a helping hand.

To see what is right and not do it is a want of courage.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained!

A widow and I alone on a magical, mokkori night.

Master Saeba?

It's too much!

Counting his chickens before they hatch.

Ryo, that doesn't look at all like what a guard would wear to me.

It's her we're talking about here, you know?

O my beloved Mistress, Ryo Saeba has come to protect your person!

Now! At this moment, I come to your side!

Master Saeba!

I come!

That's what I was trying to warn him about.

Dummy...

Shoo! Shoo!

What's going on here?

Oh, hello. Please...

Well, Madam,

if you change your mind, please don't hesitate to call any time.

You're wasting your time. I intend to sell none of the art objects.

I see. You are a stubborn one, Madam. Well, until we meet again.

Wow, look at that red nose.

Was your husband from France?

His name was Pierre Le Rogue.

Kudo, that will be enough.

Yes, Madam.

I think I understand. You may leave now.

Madam!

Kudo, I appreciate your concern for me, but we don't need a guard.

It's true that a thief has made several attempts on the mansion,

but so far we've sustained no losses.

And do you know why?

I wonder?

This mansion is protected by a comprehensive security system.

Plus, the top of the wall is electrified,

while in the garden you have ferocious Dobermans.

Right, and that's why we don't need a guard.

Nope, your guard is still down.

The scent of a mature woman...

Your perfume is Chanel, right?

We'll be leaving then.

Sorry for disturbing you.

Bye...

Damn!

Madam, are you unharmed?

Looks like it's better if I'm here after all.

Madam!

Get out! I want you to leave right now!

Madam!

Please try to forgive her discourtesy.

Her husband obtained all of the art objects himself,

and he loved them more than anything else.

And that's why she can't abide the loss of even one of them?

That's right.

It's not just the collection,

the mansion itself is full of memories of her dead husband.

It is as you say.

To win a widow's heart

in a place steeped in memories of her husband and achieve mokkori...

A difficult thing to pull off.

What's eating you?

Nothing!

But Ryo remained completely undaunted!

Please wait for me, Masumi!

I already figured out what you are up to.

Sneak, sneak, sneak...

Mr. Kudo!

What is it?

I'm sorry to wake you.

I thought you might need a bodyguard in your bedroom as well.

No, thank you!

Please don't say that.

From the first time I saw you,

I thought, if you'd have me,

I'd like to become your lifelong bodyguard.

And so after all I...

Masumi!

That won't be enough

to stop Ryo!

Masumi!

Oh, my God!

Madam?!

I can't even get close to the "mo" in mokkori!

Even the inimitable Master Saeba has failed!

Mr. Kudo, why did you try to assist Ryo with his mokkori?

Luckily, Masumi had her guard up and the worst was avoided, but...

Miss Kaori, I will tell you the whole story.

As you can see,

since her husband's death the Mistress has remained in mourning,

and continues to pray for his soul in the next world.

But she is only twenty-two.

She is too young to spend her days kneeling before his grave.

I am sure he wouldn't have wanted this.

Impossible! You wanted Ryo to win her heart so she would forget him?

Yes, I had hoped that a romance with Master Saeba

would be the start of her journey down a new path in life, but...

Her heart refused to be swayed even by the artifices of Master Saeba.

There is no more hope.

Oh, no! It's dangerous! Dangerous! You don't know Ryo!

Food power is the way to mokkori!

Just you watch! I'll have Masumi tonight!

Well? The greater Ryo's challenge, the hotter his flame burns.

He's preparing for tonight by storing up energy with a vengeance.

Then what Saeko Nogami told me is true after all!

I just know Master Saeba will succeed!

What is this?

Could it be?!

Could it be you were that thief last night?

No, no, not at all, that was a real thief.

Mr. Saeba?

Yes?

I'm going out. Come with me.

Where?

Yahoo! My efforts have paid off!

Today's another great day! Mokkori! Mokkori!

Could it be?

So, where are we going? Dinner? A drive along the coastal road?

There's a church up ahead. That's where.

A church? That's great!

The sooner we get married the better it is for both of us.

And let's reserve a hotel room while we're at it.

Pierre's grave is located at the church.

I see. I thought it sounded to good to be true.

Mr. Saeba, do you know why I brought you here?

Nope.

This is the place where one may repent of one's sins.

Go in there and confess your actions of last night.

If you don't, I won't allow you into my house.

Hey!

Boy-o-boy, I bet I wouldn't finish confessing if I spent my whole life.

Hey...

Listen to me and don't turn around. I was your husband's partner.

We pulled off a big heist together. We stole a pile of uncut diamonds.

Diamonds?

Your husband hid them in some of his art objects.

But soon afterwards, he died in a traffic accident.

He stole diamonds?! It can't be!

Don't turn around!

If you think I'm lying, you can tell the police about me.

You'll only be staining your husband's honor though.

I'll be coming for them tonight. Have the security system off.

No Dobermans, and don't let that bodyguard be hanging around.

If you betray me, the whole world will know your husband's disgrace.

Make sure you keep that in mind.

Tonight at midnight.

Going back to your grave?

For you, this isn't the real grave. It's that mansion.

Right?

I wanted to talk to you.

You said this mansion was my grave, right?

Want to sit down?

Kaori used to have a brother. They were very close.

Did her brother die?

Yes, he was all the family she knew.

Not a day goes by that she still doesn't remember him,

but Kaori never says a word about it.

She always goes around cheerful. She's a strong woman, that Kaori.

But in your case, the life you lead centers on Pierre's death.

You're just a weakling.

No, that's wrong!

Okay, let's go, Miss Weakling.

We're going to go see reality.

No!

Do you really love Pierre?

Why won't you have faith in him?

Find your diamonds, Mr. Thief?

What?!

The diamonds are right here.

We searched the whole collection, and got every last one of them.

Right, during your failed attempt on the collection last night,

a diamond was knocked out of that broken statue.

Then I knew what you were after.

No trouble now!

Madam?

You fire that thing and he's gonna get hurt too.

What's wrong? Go ahead and shoot. Go ahead!

I didn't hear you answer me!

Stop! Please stop it!

Ryo!

Okay, put it on the floor quietly, and slide it over here. Hurry up!

Master Saeba!

Get over there!

Master Saeba...

What's wrong? After all that tough talk, how disappointing!

What I'm saying is that I don't need a gun to take you down.

Still got some spirit left in ya, I see.

The fun's just starting.

Ryo!

Master Saeba!

I'm sorry I was late.

Saeko...

Looks like you overdid yourself, right, Mr. Red-nosed Reindeer?

What?! How do you know my nickname?

Alias, the Red-nosed Reindeer; lone wolf specializing in diamonds.

There's never been any record of him working with a partner.

Lone wolf thief?! So Pierre didn't...

Pierre just happened to buy items in which the diamonds were hidden.

He had nothing to do with it!

He was no thief!

I'll use it to blow us all up!

You can just go to Hell with the rest of your husband's memories!

Ryo!

Five!

Four!

Three!

Two!

One!

Zero!

He did it!

Ridiculous!

Success! Right, Saeko?

Thank you! You sacrificed yourself to protect the collection.

No, after all I wasn't able to protect everything.

The blame for this is mine alone. I am so extremely sorry!

I don't mind.

To be sure, the objects that were destroyed were full of memories,

but living, breathing people are more important!

You, Kaori, Saeko and Kudo.

Madam!

All of your lives are more important!

I'm sorry. Stealing the best part of the show for myself.

That's okay. I'm writing it down.

Ryo, are you sure we can just leave now?

Yes...

Our job is over. She has been reborn.

Pierre...

Attention please, attention please.

Passengers on Sunrise Flight 831 to Paris come to Departure Lobby One.

Mr. Saeba...

Are you going?

Yes, I'm sure Pierre up in Heaven would want me to make this trip.

I made the mansion into a museum. Kudo will act as curator.

This marks the beginning of your new life.

I'll also be starting my own new life.

Thank you.

Make sure you come back.

Yes, when I do, I'll come to meet you and Kaori. First thing!

Visiting Pierre's grave will come first, won't it?

You're right.

I like that smile. Take care!

Thank you, Saeba!

Could it be a blessing from Heaven? A job for a Sister no less.

And get this, she goes to a movie, a disco,

gets drunk and loses her rosary, she says.

My, my, a veritable lost sheep.

We have to find that rosary quick.

After her leave is up, she's taking her vows.

Vows?

Her marriage with God.

What a waste! If she's going to get married, she ought to marry me.

God, please strike Ryo down!

Don't miss it!
