Hey, don't show my face?
I said don't?
Here's your receipt
Thank you
< VILLAIN >
Everything looks fine
This is your copy to keep. I appreciate your business
(All done)
What should we eat for dinner?
I'm eating with friends. Didn't I tell you?
After I drove all the way from Kurume?
Coming home for New Year's?
dunno, I might go to Universal Studios in Osaka
With who?
Who? Just a co-worker
Universal whatever... Come home for New Year's at least
I already told Mom
Oh, I need to go to the office. I'll get off here
Thanks for the referral. It's hard getting new customers
You can have this, Dad
Subtitle by Aldi Arman
Here you go
Careful, the pot's still hot
Looks yummy!
Ouch
It's hot
Yoshino, aren't you meeting Masuo later?
Your breath will stink
I'll only see him for a bit. I have work tomorrow
You two must be in love. I'm so jealous of you
Masuo's parents run an upscale inn, right?
Says on their website they charge 50,000 yen a night
3 nights would be a month's salary!
But if Yoshino becomes the madam there. . .
- Don't get ahead of yourself? - Oh, c'mon!
A madam?
You just started dating, right?
Besides, I hear Masuo is a bit of a playboy
Really?
Yup
Sounds like he wants to go with you
You think?
Definitely. Did you reply?
Not yet
Universal Studios? Sounds fun
But it's crowded during the holidays, he says
Send him an email right now. He won't say no to you
now?
Yeah
Do it
But you're seeing him later
Yeah, but. . .
So annoying
Who?
That chick I picked up at that bar
The insurance saleswoman, remember?
Oh, you're seeing her?
No way. She keeps emailing me,
so I'm just playing along
Man, I've been pissed all day. I'm taking off
Thanks, that was crap
Hey...
2,680 yen each
- I'll pay on my way to the bathroom - Thanks
Yoshino, don't you have to get going?
Huh, what?
Aren't you meeting Masuo?
Oh, right, soon
He has a car. It's okay if I'm a little late
Yeah?
Say, what about the guy you met on the dating site?
What if Sari hears?
Sorry
I mean, I don't really care,
but Sari's like the epitome of sexual frustration
If she hears I met a guy from a dating site, she'll spread rumors
I have Masuo now, and that other guy gets on my nerves
His conversations are boring, and he's no fun to be with
Just a blue-collar loser
But he comes all the way from Nagasaki to see you, right?
Only takes him an hour and a half
That's it?
He drives really fast
Sex and driving is about all he's good at
u slept with him already? You just met him
That's why I met him
I'm heading that way
To meet him
We'll head back to the staff dorm
Say hi to Masuo
Okay, bye
You think she's really dating Masuo?
I have a hard time believing it
Why?
We've never even seen them together
But she said she's going to see him
Maybe she's just going to the corner shop
No way
Hey, Masuo? What're you doing here?
Uh, just taking a leak. . .
I just sent you an email! What a coincidence!
My dorm's over there
Dorm?
Remember? I live in my insurance company's dorm
Boyfriend?
Not a chance! Just a friend of a friend
I loaned him some money
Don't worry about him
Not today
I'm going shopping. I can't see you today
But the money from last time. . .
Wire me the money. I'll email the account info later
No sleep again?
Driving around 'til late again, huh?
I didn't go anywhere
How's your grandfather? In the hospital again?
I'm driving him there after work today
Why didn't you say so?
You could've dropped him off and come to work late
Be careful out there
Nagasaki will see lows of 8 degrees, 5 degrees lower than yesterday
Dear listeners, dress warm so you don't catch a cold
Fire department to chief unit
Reports from the scene indicate one female in her twenties who slid. . .
uh, about 7 meters down from the road
There's a rescue unit and police already on the scene
The rescue unit is...
Sano san, it's Kubo
You're late, dammit.
Should I go down there, too?
Don't bother
But just in case...
Get out of the way!
Sent my daughter to Tokyo for college, but all she does is party
The only time she calls home is to beg for money
Same with my daughter
She can commute from home, but she insists on living on her own
At least Yoshino has a job and takes care of herself
Hardly! Just yesterday I had to send her a referral
She only calls when she needs help
Hello
Welcome
Satoko, customers!
My hands are tied right now
What do you mean?
Customers waiting
But I just started deveining the shrimp
Leave it for later
It'll just be a moment
Unbelievable
She's a barber's wife who never helps out
My wife's the same way
Hello, Ishibashi residence
What?
It's. . .
What?
I'm not sure... but it's the police
Auntie, it's me, Norio
Oh, you're here
Uncle's going to the hospital?
Sure is. Just as soon as he's home, he's going right back again
I'm sure he'd rather stay home
When he's there, he says he wants to come home
When he's home, he says he prefers the hospital
Uncle
How're you feeling?
Where's Yuichi?
Back in his room
Can't keep depending on Yuichi for everything
We don't depend on him for everything
Heard he drives all the old folks around here to the hospital
Sure, but. . .
He's still a young man
If he keeps looking after old folks, he'll never find a wife
I know, but in all honesty, without Yuichi,
your uncle can't even take a bath
Hire a helper, then
Easy for you to say
You know how much it costs to have a helper come?
They're expensive?
- Of course! - Be quiet, already!
Sorry
Thanks for the fish
Say hi to Michiyo
Hey, Yuichi
You should get your license for heavy machinery soon
You can take a week off next month if you need
Bathe, eat, then off to the hospital...
Anyway, life's all about being active
And to make sure you stay active, let's talk about your health
Ah, my beautiful secretary is here!
Shimizu san, over here
I saved your seat
So how was that medicine I gave you last time?
Made my body feel warm, and sure helped me sleep
At first, I thought I was being tricked
As if I'd come out here in my short legs just to trick you!
Now that my beautiful secretary is here, let's get started
Today, we'll talk about blood
(Yoshino as a child)
Heard on the news that a college student's on the run
If the perp was a college kid, there's some consolation for Yoshio
If it was someone she met on a dating site like they say,
it'd be humiliating
They talk about his daughter like she was some prostitute
Enough with that talk
How dare you talk about my daughter that way!
Yoshio!
You cops can't catch one stinking college kid?
Quit wasting time here and go find him!
I'm sorry
I'm begging you
Shimizu san!
Sorry to interrupt
The police came to see me today
Heard you'd been writing some girl
who you met on some dating site?
She's the one who died a couple of days ago, huh?
You knew that girl, right?
ah
But boy, some people out there
sure do some cruel things, don't they?
According to the police, though,
they already know who did it
Some college kid in Fukuoka
They'll catch him soon, I'm sure
You can't do evil and get away with it
Yuichi?
You okay?
What's the matter?
Just choked on something
Choked on something?
Yuichi
Hey, don't show my face
I said don't
(File deleted)
(Hello)
(I'm the one from Saga who emailed two months ago)
(We had a good time chatting about lighthouses)
(Do you remember?)
(Sorry about the abrupt email)
I'm ready
Coming
Sorry to keep you
How does it fit? I'll open this
A bit tight, maybe?
No, I think it looks great
Today's designs tend to be slimmer in general
Makes your face look sharp, too
Really?
Pardon me
Sorry, my socks got drenched in the rain
Sure pouring out there
Isn't that too tight?
And too plain
You think so?
Try this instead
This one's fine
C'mon, this one's better, right?
Yeah?
Look, that's way too tight!
Sorry, I'm coming!
I'm sorry
- It's freezing - I know
Boyfriend's here?
Um, yeah
I couldn't buy anything
That's fine, we're going out to eat now
Oh, okay
Wanna come, Sis?
No, I don't want to be a third wheel
Oh, hi Mitsuyo
Excuse me
You're off tomorrow, right? The landlord's coming for repairs
But I'm going out tomorrow
Ah, for a change. Well, call the landlord
I left some cake for you
Don't bolt the chain
(FROM: Yuichi Shimizu)
(Meet me tomorrow 1 1 am at Saga Station)
Um. . .
Uh. . . I'm Yuichi
I never would've imagined
going for a drive with someone like you
Someone with... dyed hair like you
I saw myself in the mirror one night and suddenly felt like a change
This was all I could think of
For some reason, I think I know that feeling
What should we do?
Maybe go straight to that lighthouse you mentioned?
Or we can eat lunch around here first
What should we do?
Wanna go to a hotel?
We can save the eating and driving for later
That was so out of the blue!
You had me going there
Wait. . .
You're serious?
Well, it sure feels kind of funny
We just met, and here we are in a place like this
Sorry
No need to apologize
It just caught me by surprise
Even women feel that way from time to time
It's natural to want. . .
...to be with someone
Notice the discount shoe store on our way here?
If you turn right there,
and go straight through the rice fields,
you'd arrive at my high school
My elementary and middle schools are close by, too
And now I work along that main road
Looking back now, I realize. . .
I've spent my entire life along that main road
Just going up and down that same road
Same with me
But you live by the sea, right?
I wish I lived by the sea
If you face the sea everyday,
you feel like you've reached a dead end
What should we eat, then?
Not taking a shower?
It's all I have
You know...
I was serious about meeting someone when I sent that email
I know most people use dating sites just to kill time or something
But I was serious about it
I guess I'm a square
Goodbye
Ah
Oh, Doctor
My beautiful secretary is here
My husband's hospital is nearby, so I decided to stop by
Glad to see you! Want to come up?
Is that okay?
Of course, come on up
I'll hold this
Don't worry
You came from so far
Nothing to be scared about, Granny
Just sign there, and you can go home
We're not threatening you
We're just surprised you're refusing the great deal we offered you
You bragged about how much money you saved up for your grandson, right?
C'mon!
(RECEIPT Chinese medicine: 263,500 yen)
We found the kid yesterday. . .
and brought him in for questioning
So you caught him?
He was hiding in a capsule hotel in Nagoya
A pathetic young man, screaming like a girl
Keigo Masuo, correct?
Calm down!
Quit resisting!
Get up!
Mommy!
I said calm down!
Forgive me!
And then?
Unfortunately, it appears. . .
he wasn't the killer
He wasn't?
But... what do you mean?
Well, you see, Masuo, the college kid. . .
He says your daughter was supposed to meet someone else
Masuo only met her by chance
But then, how did. . .?
She and Masuo did drive up to the Mitsuse Pass
But there. . .
I'm so in love with this song
You know, Sari and Mako think. . .
that you and I are dating
I denied it, but they don't believe me
Well, we're not dating
What kind of girls do you like?
I dunno
No favorite types?
Nah
Are we really crossing over? There's nothing ahead
What's the matter? You've been so quiet
You kinda smell of garlic
Sorry, I actually ate some dumplings earlier
Hey, it's cold
Say, your parents run a famous inn, right? That's amazing!
Which means your mom is the madam there, huh?
Sounds like a hard job. I doubt I could do it
You won't need to
You're not the type, anyway
I mean you and my mother are different types of women
You're more of a maid type
That is, if you ever end up even working at our inn
Get off here
Just having you here pisses me off
You're just kinda trashy
You hop in a car with some guy you barely know
A normal girl wouldn't do that
To be honest, girls like you aren't my type
So get out
Want me to kick you out?
What did I do?
You can't kick me out here!
I'm sure someone will pick you up
You'd get in a car with any stranger, right?
Hurry, get out
Hurry!
I said get out!
Hey! Stop it!
Fine! I'll get out!
Kicked her out...?
Why would he...?
She said she was in love with someone
She wanted to go to Osaka with him
She sounded so happy about it
It's a mother's job to make sure she doesn't go with guys like that
I was opposed to it from the start
About Yoshino living in the city
You were so quick to let her go
So we should've kept her trapped here forever?
You're saying it's my fault? That I'm the one who...
I didn't say that!
Shut up! Quit crying!
Crying isn't going to bring Yoshino back!
Welcome
I wanted to apologize
It was all I could think about at work
I couldn't bear it
So you came all the way from Nagasaki?
Right this way, sir
I was serious, too
I was serious when I sent that email
Serious about wanting to be with someone
By the time you get home, it'll be past midnight
Saga and Nagasaki aren't exactly close, huh?
It's not bad
I'll go to Nagasaki next
Thanks for the ride
Bye
Call me when you get home. I'll stay up
(Turnoff to Nagasaki in 300m)
Hello?
Yuichi? Where are you?
Why?
You're coming home, right?
Why?
Well...
The police are here, and. . .Yuichi?
Hello?
Yuichi?
What happened?
If only I'd met you sooner
Just a little sooner
Come with me
Wait. . .
I said come with me!
Wait just a minute
Just get in!
Hey, what's the matter?
What happened?
I'm a relative of hers
Auntie, are you okay?
Thank goodness you're here
What's going on with Yuichi?
I don't really know
When I called and told him the police are here,
he just hung up
I'm sure he has nothing to do with this case
Why'd he have to hang up?
Did you tell Yoriko?
Yoriko?
Yoriko, Yuichi's mother
No need for that
But at least. . .
I'm the one who raised Yuichi all this time
Whatever happens,
Yuichi is my son
When I told my sister I'm with a guy,
she was speechless for ten seconds
Whatever happened,
you don't have to talk about it now
I can wait
This is lovely
Usually, I'd be working at this hour
I feel like I'm being spoiled
First time I've ever ditched
It's easier than I imagined
What's wrong?
I...
killed someone
Before I got to know you,
there was another girl...
who lived in Hakata
We exchanged some emails
and met a few times
She demanded I pay money if I wanted to see her
Thank you for waiting
Here's the sashimi first
We'll bring the tempura in a moment
I...
didn't know what to do
I couldn't sleep
I wanted to talk to someone
That's when I got your email
That night, she and I were supposed to meet
But she got in a car with another guy, before my eyes
I felt like I was being mocked
I was frustrated, I was angry
I followed the car. . .
I said get out!
Are you okay?
What are you doing here?
You actually followed me?
I can't believe this! Gimme a break!
You're saying this is what I get for breaking our appointment?
Don't mess with me!
C'mon, I'll give you a ride
Get in the car
No, just let me go!
You can't walk back
Leave me alone!
I said get in the car!
Ow!
I'm sorry
You okay?
Sorry
Murderer
Murderer!
I'll tell the cops you assaulted me
That you kidnapped and raped me
I have a relative who's a lawyer
Don't mess with me!
I'm not the kind of girl who'd go out with someone like you!
Wait a minute. . .
Just you see
I'll tell them you kidnapped and raped me!
Don't lie! I didn't do anything!
Think anyone will believe you? No one will!
What the hell!
I'm gonna tell them!
I'll blame it all on you!
Don't lie! I didn't do anything!
Stop! Help!
Don't lie!
I didn't do anything!
Don't lie
I didn't do anything
Cheers!
But seriously, though,
I wouldn't have been shocked if you did kill a chick
It's Masuo, after all
C'mon, me a murderer? And why would I kill someone like her?
Then why'd you disappear?
Basically, I was confused
It's true that I was with her by coincidence
Figured I'd drive her somewhere and screw the slut for kicks
But apparently she ate dumplings
Her breath stunk so bad, I didn't feel like it anymore
Anyway, I couldn't stand her so I just left her out on the road
Oh, wanna see an email from her?
Yeah, totally
If all you did was leave her, why'd you go on the run?
She wouldn't get out, so I actually kicked her
That's not what killed her, though
Here it is, check it out
Ooh! Hi Masuo, what's up?
Look, a little heart, too
She thinks they're in love
Hey, wait
Welcome
Masuo!
Keigo Masuo has returned a free man!
Have a seat
C'mon
(Hi Masuo, what's up?)
(I'm having dinner with my co-workers)
(Say, let's go to Universal Studios)
Yoshino
Daddy's here
Sorry I'm late
Yoshino
What were you doing out here?
Out here in the cold. . .
Who did this to you?
Who?
You didn't do anything wrong
Nothing wrong
I won't forgive him
I'll never forgive him
Mitsuyo, you should get out here
If you're seen with me,
it'll cause you trouble
That's all?
If I get off here, you think everything will be fine with me?
Who do you think I am?
When I met you, I thought I could be happy at last
I'll wait, however long it takes
You hear?
She met a man from a dating site.
Was she seeking to quell her solitude?.
(Wanted: Yuichi Shimizu)
Suspected of choking Ms. Ishibashi to death
Reporting from the scene...
Bastards
I spoke to Michiyo
and we think you should stay with us for a while
I appreciate it
I'll get it
Mom, what's going on?
Yuichi's wanted for murder?
The police even came to my work place
So humiliating
They made it sound like I was hiding him or something
Yoriko, you're the one who abandoned him long ago
Stay out of this
- But... - It's okay, Norio
Now everyone's giving me the cold shoulder
I'm the one. . .
m the one who raised Yuichi. He's my son now
Of course I feel bad about what I did to Yuichi
I cry and apologize every time I see him
What? You've been seeing Yuichi?
That's right
And while I apologize with tears in my eyes,
he begs me for money
Be it 1 ,000 or 2,000 yen,
whatever he can squeeze out of this poor woman
Jesus
What a fine man you raised
The first time I saw this lighthouse...
When I was a kid, my mother and I went to go see my father
That was the first time I saw this lighthouse
Just as my mother instructed me,
I kept staring at the lighthouse
But. . .
my mother never came back
Mommy's coming back,
She's definitely coming back
I told myself that over and over
No one believed me
No one believed what I told them
Yuichi bought this for me
Right after he started working for you
Thanks
By the way, I had a dream last night
A dream? What kind?
We were living together
What kind of house?
Kinda hard to describe
Draw it, then
C'mon, draw it
I dunno. . .
You okay?
Mitsuyo?
I'm... just fine
I'm doing great
I need to go to the store again
We're out of food
Let's stop this
Stop what?
What do you mean, let's stop this?
Hey
You don't tell me anything, Yuichi
I'm in no position to
I mean, just tell me something
Talk to me
We can't do this forever
You know this, deep down
We could've!
If you hadn't done what you did,
we could've been together forever!
But all we have now is this, right here
Just this lighthouse
We have nowhere to go back to
Until I met you, I didn't think much of it
I didn't think I was wrong
It was that girl's fault. I didn't do anything wrong
That's what I thought
But. . .
Being with you now is so painful
The more I'm with you, the harder it is
Until now. . .
I couldn't even tell
if I was dead or alive
Yuichi
Don't touch me!
Why am I like this? Why?
Ma'am, do you have a moment?
Any comment on the case?
Your grandson met the victim on a dating site, right?
I'm sure you're worried about him, but has he called you at all?
Just one comment, and we'll leave
Just one comment!
Your grandson is a murderer, you understand?
Hey, you imbeciles!
No filming in the bus!
Step out, it's dangerous!
Door's closing
It's me
Where are you, dear?
Hakata
When I blamed you about Yoshino the other day...
I was wrong
I might not come home today. Need to take care of something
Okay
Just be sure to come home when you're done
I will
Ma'am
It's not your fault
You gotta hang in there
Stop
Why'd you abandon her?
Who're you?
Why'd you abandon Yoshino?
What the hell
It's your fault she died. Apologize!
Apologize to Yoshino!
I didn't do anything!
Apologize! Apologize to Yoshino!
What the hell!
Apologize!
I didn't do anything, dammit!
Are you okay?
Hello?
I'm sorry
Sis?
I'm so glad!
You're alive
Where are you? Are you with the fugitive?
Just calm down
How could I?
We're going nuts here thinking you're with a murderer!
It's not true
He. . . really isn't a bad person
Sis
You know,
I've never felt this way before
I want to be with him
Just one more day... Give me some time with him
Sis
The man you're with is a murderer. He killed someone!
Of all people, you had to fall for a murderer?
Sorry
But I just don't want to leave him
Don't want to leave him?
Wait, you're the one who suggested fleeing?
You met him on a dating site!
You think a guy like that would really love you?
Do you even know how much trouble you've caused us?
Um. . .
Is something wrong?
No
You're Mitsuyo Magome, aren't you?
She's safe with us now
No, she doesn't appear to be injured
But she seems quite confused and unclear about the situation
So then this guy suddenly grabs me, and goes
It's your fault my daughter's dead!
What a joke
You got anyone that you truly cherish, young man?
I mean someone who fills you with joy
with the mere thought of that person being happy
In this day and age,
too many folks have no one they care about
They figure they have nothing to lose,
so they think they're strong
And so...
they trick themselves into believing they're above it all
When they see people who love, who have something to lose,
they look down on them
Yuichi. . .
It's not right
People aren't supposed to be that way
I'd like my money back
You...
Hey Hey, Granny. . .
Get out, you hag!
Get the hell out!
- Please, give me my money! - Go, stupid hag!
- Please! - Let it go
I've given this life all I could!
- Get out! - I've faced life head on!
Is it funny?
The sight of a father hose daughter was murdered. . .
Is it really so funny?
So that's how you'll live
Just like that,
laughing at others all your life. . .
That's how you'll live
What the hell
Stupid old man
Wish I could just. . .
just kill him
I'm so sorry
I couldn't help you at all
I was being selfish
Asking you to run away together. . .
It's my fault
It's my fault for stopping you
I'm so sorry
I'm not the kind of man you think I am
Shimizu!
What're you doing!
Get away from her!
Welcome home
Thanks
What do you think?
I like it
The length is just right
Still cold, isn't it?
It was chilly this morning
You don't need to leave the flowers?
The victim's family, you think?
Some people sure do some awful things, though
Choking a young gal to death. . .
It's inhuman, I tell you
Shall we leave, then?
I suppose you're right
I guess it's just as they all say
That man. . .
must be a bad person, right?
After all, he did kill a person, right?
