♬～("Flower") (Masa)At the new students welcome party,
despite the school forbids jazz, Sakurako arranged the song to
jazz style
The audience took a while to get used to the unfamiliar rhythm
What can you compare the beautiful scene to ?
the audience gave huge applause Sakurako was way ahead of the time, her jazz
piano playing became well known in town
but the result is...
(Nishino) 3 day suspension!
Miss Arimori, only you get a week suspension
(Sakurako) what?
Only if you didn't start the playing
wouldn't result in this
and each of you are required to submit reflection paper during the suspension
is it clear? You MUST!
(Tokujiro) Hello!
(Tokujiro) shame to the family! (Fueko) That's right. Suspension
This might give negative influence to Momo's marriage (Momoko) Don't worry about me.
You all shut up!
I don't understand. What's wrong with playing jazz?
Everyone enjoyed listening to it
Did I really do a wrong thing?
but....
there is a rule, no matter you understand or not that we must obey
is an adult right?
whenever you don't understand we should fight against it?
right, dad. anyway just write the reflection paper
in case the suspension might become expelled, due to your attitude
(Iso) expel!? Write reflection paper!

"I, Sakurako Arimori of class 1, year 5, regret playing filthy music,
against school policy..."
(Genichiro) Sakurako, come here.
Yep.
♬～("St Louis Blues")
This is the first album I bought It's a jazz album, "St Louis Blues"
This is a special song for mother and I
When we went to party at a hotel in Yokohama, they were playing it
nice..
♬～
When we started to live together in Tokyo,
we were really poor for a while, but at least albums and
a gramophone were our treasure.
Whenever we were hungry, we played it and danced together
Then we felt like "do our best again tomorrow"
Jazz has a power to enlighten the people
I love jazz as well yep

Sorry for asking you a big favor.
(Matsumoto) position after your retirement?
I'll ask a few places, but with the pressure from the government,
every company trends to reduce its workforce
I am not sure, if I can find a suitable position for a well educated man like you.
Any job will do it.
Please find me one.
The reason Genichiro started to look for a new job after his retirement was
to make Sakurako's dream of studying at conservatorium of music
come true. Nobody in the family including Sakurako knows about it yet.

Thank you very much. Not at all
Got suspension? you know?
everyone in town knows about it
cheer up you've got good skill
"good skill?"
it's about the piano playing at the welcome party
I often heard you practice the organ whenever I walked by here
See you later. are you all right?
one more time
♬～(piano)
(Kane) Tatsuhiko! You've been playing the piano all the time lately
What's wrong?
♬～
That's enough
Just help at the Miso preparation instead of piano playing for a change
You are the heir of business. If you don't know about the business,
the craftsmen won't respect you (Tatsuhiko) shut up
where are you going?
(sigh)
you're not supposed to go out, you've got suspension yeah
I can't be home all the time
♬～
Flashback (Kane) what's that? a letter to Tatsuhiko
Ah, you want to date my son, Tatsuhiko?
We don't want someone like you

I just don't want to see him aye?

it is such a common thing here
nothing serious, please forgive us! it was my fault
anyway she has nothing to this please let her go
that is the playground for the children students use it to commute
no fight or violence! out of the question!
it wasn't a lover's quarrel! stop!
excuse me! dad!
Please accept me sincere
apology my daughter has caused please accept this humble gift
for everyone thank you
Mr Arimori oh no
the daughter happened to be there she wasn't doing anything bad
that was what I said!
May I take my daughter home? sure
Miss Arimari! What is going on! What's this!
you should be the state of being penitent and stay home, instead went out with a boy
and got involved in violence!
it is nothing like that! you got into another incidence
it is beyond suspension, it deserves to be expelled.
I am really sorry. I sincerely apologize.
you regret what you have done from the bottom of your heart, right, Sakurako!
She didn't mean any harm, mam
as to the performance at the party,
it was all my fault as a parent
please accept our sincere apology.
She could hardly eat anything since then.
Mr. Arimori, Sakurako is the only student who hasn't submitted the Reflection paper yet.
the Reflection paper is here, mam.
Dad the Reflection paper has been there for a while
"the guilty feeling was beyond the reflection paper
she thought it was far more serious
she regrets every bit of it yes!
No, that's wrong! Ah!

Apologize to your teacher.
Apologize!
It was the first time father ever hit her
