Saeki
Stupid! Stop it!
What am I thinking?
Hey...
Wait.
I said to wait...
Stop it.
Saeki
It smells like shampoo...
Flowers of Evil
Episode 2 of 13
Welcome home.
Why are you covered in sweat, Takao?
Are you not feeling well?
I'm okay...
Takao!
What is it?
Have you cleaned your room yet?
I told you yesterday—
O-Okay! Okay...
Just leave me alone for a bit!
Honestly...
He's as bad as his father, with those books everywhere.
Flowers of Evil.
No kidding...
Saeki-san is absent today?
Yo, Kasuga...
Hey, did you watch last night—
Shut up!
Don't talk to me right now!
Huh?
What's with you?
If she's absent,
I can return it today before anyone notices.
Okay, take your seats.
Class monitor!
Stand.
Bow.
Be seated.
Okay, I have something to discuss with you all.
Pay attention.
When Saeki arrived today, her gym uniform was missing.
All right, keep it down...
It sounds as though her uniform was stolen from her gym bag.
Does anyone know anything?
I can't believe it.
I feel so bad for her.
I know.
Sounds like what a pervert would do!
If anyone knows anything, come and see me.
Then let's get homeroom started.
I want to go far away...
Somewhere very far away.
I am a criminal.
I'm sorry.
Saeki-san, I'm sorry.
I'll spend the rest of my life atoning for my crime.
Even when I'm an old man,
I'll still be making up for this.
But there's nowhere to escape...
Not in this town,
not for me.
The town is surrounded by mountains.
There's nowhere for me to run.
How many people in this town understand Baudelaire?
Why is all the iron here rusted?
Kasuga-kun, what are you doing?
Uh, I was just going to the bookstore.
Bye.
Say...
Kasuga-kun, you're always busy reading.
Why?
And it's always weird books,
the kind that look really obscure.
Are they that interesting?
How do you know this?
Because I sit behind you.
Well, I don't know about "interesting,"
but books have changed my world.
Normal people wouldn't understand...
Eh... Eh?
Wait, what're you doing?
Take me
beyond those mountains.
Huh? Wh-Why?
Why? Because I want to go there.
I don't understand.
The book I ordered just arrived.
I have to pick it up at the bookstore...
Kasuga-kun...
You know what?
I saw you...
When you stole Saeki-san's uniform.
If you don't want me to tell everyone, then start pedaling.
Come on.
He ran away.
What do you mean, "the mood today"?
Ieharu, isn't it obvious?
Everyone else knew!
You're an idiot!
What's wrong? Do you feel sick?
No.
Oh, right...
Did you get that new book, the one you ordered?
I've been wanting to read it.
Let me take a look.
I... I didn't buy it yet.
Takao?
Where's your bike? I don't see it.
I left it at the bookstore...
Why?
Oh, so you did go to the bookstore?
I'm done!
Takao?
Now, now, dear...
Takao's getting to be that age. He has a lot to deal with.
It's over...
I've fallen.
Nakamura-san is going to tell everyone.
I'm sure she will.
And who knows what else she might do?
Why?
She's completely mistaken...
I didn't steal it.
I got lost in the moment, and brought it home.
Seriously, Kasuga?
That's sick...
Perv!
Are you insane?
Sad.
What?
The nerve...
Apologize!
Go to hell!
Don't show your face around here.
Thief!
A sad excuse for a man...
Pathetic.
I'm disappointed...
What are we supposed to tell the neighbors?
Die.
...myself in.
I'll turn myself in.
Before Nakamura-san has a chance to tell everyone,
I'll apologize in person.
Tomorrow, I'll return
this uniform to Saeki-san,
and tell her that I just made a mistake...
"I know that suffering is the sole nobility
Which earth and hell shall never mar,
And that to weave my mystic crown,
You must tax every age and every universe."
"For that crown will be made of nothing but pure light
Drawn from the holy source of primal rays,
Whereof our mortal eyes, in their fullest brightness,
Are no more than tarnished, mournful mirrors!"
I got myself a boyfriend yesterday.
Eh? No way!
Yes way!
Got a big one.
'Sup?
Maybe...
Maybe
if I sincerely apologize, she'll understand.
And see that I'm not a pervert.
Okay, take your seats.
Well, that's it for the announcements...
Anyone else have anything?
Kasuga
Guess not.
Homeroom's over, then.
2.25 meters!
All right, next.
Nanako, where'd you get the uniform?
I ended up buying a new one.
Oh, that thief is awful.
Hey, Kasuga, don't you think you're staring at Saeki too much?
I-I'm not staring.
Well, Saeki-san sure is cute.
As cute as an idol.
I can see why you'd have a crush on her.
It's not like that!
But when you think of some freak stealing her uniform,
sniffing it, using it for various sexual purposes...
Then there's something erotic about her body.
Stop it, idiot!
Hey, so who do you think it was?
It'd be gross if they were from our class!
I guess...
I have no issue with someone fantasizing about her, but this is a different story.
It's a criminal act!
That's really messed up.
It's over...
I can't do this...
I can't turn myself in.
Flowers of Evil Baudelaire
Baudelaire,
I never realized the path of evil would be so difficult.
But if I don't turn myself in,
Nakamura-san will tell everyone, and that'll be even worse.
Why must I suffer like this?
After school, go to the library. Don't run away this time.
Stay calm...
Stay calm now.
Uh... What is it?
Why did you run away yesterday?
Well, that's because
you have it wrong!
Does that mean I can tell everyone that you stole it?
I didn't... You have the wrong idea!
Coward. Scumbag.
Nakamura-san, please hear me out.
I didn't steal it.
I took it home accidentally...
I was planning to turn myself in today.
I was going to return this to Saeki-san and apologize!
I see.
Kasuga-kun, I'm willing to let this go.
I won't tell anyone.
In return...
You must agree to a contract with me.
C-Contract?
Yes,
I'll let you off the hook.
And you will let me take something dear to you.
Hold on...
I don't understand what you mean.
E-Excuse me...
Kasuga-kun, what did you want to talk to me about?
Saeki-san...
I need to get to cram school, so I don't have much time...
Sorry for calling you here when you're so busy.
Kasuga-kun says he has something important to tell you.
Eh? What?
Go on.
What is it?
Sorry!
Nice job, Kasuga-kun!
Your face landed right where I'd planned.
So how do you feel?
Write an essay about your current feelings by tomorrow.
Remember, you have a contract with me.
Right?
Why did this happen?
Did you write the essay? Go do it.
It turns out that
I should throw it away and end this!
someone suspicious was near school that day.
Kasuga, this is getting interesting.
What do you want?
Don't you have a crush on Saeki-san?
Pervert.
This is how Nakamura-san smells...
Shut up, shit-face.
Watch the next episode, shit-bag. Oshimi Shuuzou
