Episode 47
This is Mr. Hirano from the textile factory.
He was Haru's supervisor. He came to see her.
Thank you for coming to see her.
She was just coughing up blood. I hope she can recognize you.
Haru!
It's Mr. Hirano he's here to see you!
It's Mr. Hirano!
Haru it's me!
Mr. Hirano...
It's really you?
He wanted to see you.
Be strong. Get well and come back to us.
I thought I would never see you again...
Am I dreaming?
It's not a dream.
Look! He brought you flowers.
They're beautiful.
I remember you picked daisies for me once.
It made me so happy.
They were blooming behind the factory.
They suited you.
I dried those flowers and I still have them.
We'll go to pick more again.
Get well so that we can pick flowers together.
I want to get well...
And I want to be able to talk again.
We'll talk about the books I read. So you'd better hang in there.
I won't die.
I want to be able to see you again.
I won't die. I don't want to die!
Don't talk so much you'll get tired.
Get some rest.
I'll be right here beside you.
Thank you...
I'll never forget today. Thank you very much...
Thank you for taking time off to come to see her.
I had no idea she was that bad off.
We've given up on her...
But we're glad to see her cheerful again.
You were able to give her something to remember.
I know that the working conditions are terrible at the factories.
So many women workers have been victimized.
But there's nothing we can do.
If we speak up for worker's rights we will all be fired.
I'm afraid of losing my job. I'm so ashamed!
Everybody's got it bad.
This can't continue forever!
The capitalists can't continue to grow fat!
It can't be allowed!
The workers shall become stronger!
You and I must work towards such a day!
It's not just the sharecroppers. Workers all have it so bad.
I don't want to work for anybody anymore.
I want to be able to support myself.
I don't want to end up like my sister.
But at least you were able to make her happy.
You helped her.
You even came to see her. Thank you.
- Has he gone? - Yes.
Haru was in love with him? I had no idea.
Poor thing. I'm sure she has regrets.
I'm glad for her.
It's worse if she had nobody to love.
I've given up on Kota.
But I don't regret loving him.
I'm grateful that I got to love someone.
He really came...
Haru.
He brought me these flowers?
Yes.
I have no more regrets.
I'm ready to die.
Haru!
Make me a pressed dried flower from one of these daisies...
I will.
And put it in my coffin.
What are you both doing in here?
We need your help out in the fields.
Come here Oshin.
I heard about Haru.
She was such a good worker there.
I wanted her to quit before she got sick.
This is Mr. Katsugi he'll find Oshin a job.
He's well-known here and all over Yamagata.
I'll get you a good job.
What's wrong with it?
It's one of the biggest restaurants in Yamagata.
I can't work at a job pleasing men.
All you have to do is pour sake for them.
It's better than washing and cleaning.
You get to wear nice kimono too.
One of the girls I know earns 10 yen per night!
You can pay off your debts in no time.
You should be grateful that he's giving you a chance.
But...
Ordinary jobs don't pay enough!
Think about it. You'll be helping us.
Shoji and I can't possibly make ends meet.
Shoji will be getting married soon too.
We have to help him.
You would be doing us a big favor. The contract is only for three years.
You can go and get married after that.
Maybe you can find a husband there.
One of my other girls met a nice rich man to marry.
You'll go won't you?
Lie down or you'll start coughing again.
This is important.
Don't listen to that man!
I'm sure he's here with a sleazy deal for you.
You know him?
He used to come to the factory often.
He'd trick the girls at the factory
into selling themselves into prostitution.
Don't listen to him!
Well...
Don't tell me you accepted!
Father insisted.
Turn it down!
But it's already set.
- Oshin! - I couldn't help it.
Run away.
If you stay they'll drag you away.
Haru.
Take this money and go to Tokyo.
Tokyo?
There's an address in there too. Go there for help.
That's it. You can read it can't you?
There's no name on it. Who is this?
I've never met him but he knows about me.
I was supposed to go to work for him.
You were?
I didn't want to be at the factory forever
and I guess I was already infected.
I wanted to go to Tokyo and work as a hairdresser.
This person runs a beauty parlor?
A woman should be working for herself.
She has to be able to live on her own!
Once you learn to do hair you can go into business for yourself.
Do it for me!
I haven't much longer to live...
Live for me!
Do what I wasn't able to do...
Haru Haru.
Haru!
Don't worry about me...
Hurry and go! Don't tell father.
Don't show him the money!
Haru!
Haru...
Haru!
Maybe she won't make it...
Hers was such a short life...
And all she did was suffer. Please forgive me Haru.
She looks at peace.
She must have been happy to see Mr. Hirano.
Haru!
That night Haru passed on at age 19.
Oshin remembered Haru's final words to her.
