I met him at Yuri-san's place when I went there for my English lesson.
At that time... somehow...
...I thought Eisuke-san's eyes had this look like that of a dead fish, so I just called out to him.
How about if we got Eisuke-san to help us out with this, too?
Eisuke-san.
It's been a long time, hasn't it?
Yeah, you're looking well.
Ai, this is Eisuke-san.
She's cute.
Be happy.
Well then...
"Welcome Baby" will start filming.
Ready?
Okay... Action!
Hey, geez...!
Ai, don't cry. It's okay!
He scared you, didn't he?

And, cut!
Well... that was a good shot.
You're a good girl, aren't you?
She really is a good girl.
Everyone is so cute.
Let's see... what's up next?
Ah... the bathing scene.
Ah, the bathroom then.
Okay, get the bathroom prepped, Assistant Director.
Yes!
Um... since we have a baby bath, we can do that here.
Ah... really?
Be careful about the water temperature, okay? As written, it should be about 38 degrees Celsius.
I've prepped a thermometer.
Okay, the props are gauze and soap, Assistant Director.
Yes!
Akemi-san, are there any procedures that should be followed before putting a baby into a bath?
They can't go in if they're very hungry...
...and not immediately after breastfeeding.
Feeding is best done about 30 minutes before bathing.
Kameda-san, can we have 30 minutes?
Ah... sure.
In that case, get her breastfed.
Very well.
You should. We'll see you later.
Since Ai-chan won't be up, during that time...
...how about shooting the "Drying diapers on the veranda" scene here?
OK!
That's just like Eisuke-san. He reads one step ahead.
Yeah, he's incredible.
Okay, cut!
You did really well, Ai-chan.
She's a good girl. Let her rest over there.
Yes.
Director, was that scene okay?
Well...
That just now was of her entire body.
I'd like to get a close-up of her face.
Eh...
Yeah, one more time.
Standby.
Yes.
Just a minute.
A baby's bathing time is only about 5 minutes or so.
If you do too many retakes, she'll get overheated.
Ah... I see. That would be serious.
Eh? Then when could we do that?
Tomorrow, I guess.
To... tomorrow, huh? Well... that'll throw our schedule off.
The lead character is a baby. It just can't be helped.
Hello there!
In that case, let's take a break. Okay?
Thanks for the order. We're Letbe.
We brung ya yer lunches.
Warm box lunches!
Ryu-chan, this is the best!
Whaa... Kameda-san, yer finger-clicks are just as cool as ever!
The Creature Called a "Movie Director"
What's that?
It's a bible.
A bible?
Everyone says this is a bible for those who going to be a film director.
"The Creature Called a 'Movie Director.'"
Um...
Shouldn't we have some voiceover narration here, too?
Ah... we should, huh?
Yeah. Doing that could make things easier to understand for people.
For example... "Clip, clip..."
"Doing the clipping bit by bit is fine," something like that.
That would be good.
That's a bit off, isn't it?
A movie doesn't give explicit answers.
It makes people think while they watch.
Are we making that kind of movie?
We're not. This is a movie that give explicit answers.
Isn't that a line straight out of "The Creature Called a 'Movie Director'"?
What is that?
What is he talking about?
I was wondering what he's been thinking.
Well then, would it be okay to add narration, Norio-san?
Norio-san?
Eh?
Yeah.
Okay.
Eisuke-san that was a big success.
No... I'll write it in here.
Akemi-san will fold the diaper.
And then...
Like that...
Ai's hand.
How are things at the company?
Yeah.
Unchanged. Since all the top people are away.
Yeah. I see...
Thanks for your hard work.
I'm back.
Ah, welcome home.
What were you lost in thought about?
Eh?
No... it wasn't anything like that.
Really?
Where's Eisuke?
Seems he'll be late today.
I'll take that.
He said he'll be working on the film script and narration with Akemi-chan.
Ehh...
I wonder if this hasn't been a good change of pace for him.
That would be great.
Yeah.
This is good.
I'm glad to hear that.
Well then, let's get this printed up...
Ah...
He fell asleep. Hey...
Hey, you'll catch cold there!
Actually, there's something I've come up with.
I think Eisuke's intention was a fine one.
When he said he wanted men across Japan to look cool.
That's true.
In a sense, he did accomplish that.
Couldn't we save that accomplishment? That's what I've come up with.
"That..."?
Reviving Orion's line of clothes for gentlemen.
Eisuke nurtured a sense for fashion among young people.
Those young people will become adults. The majority will be salaried workers.
We'll have suits we think they'd like to wear.
I guess a suit which fits the body is the best.
So we'll divide them up into detailed sizes and they can choose different sizes for top and bottom.
It will also be essential that we change the designs to fit the era.
I'd like to hear an objective opinion about my idea. Yuri, what do you think?
It's a good idea! If you do that...
...I think there'll be lots of people who'll want to buy them!
Okay, cut!
Ai-chan. Ai-chan, you didn't cry. You're so great.
The next shot is for "Kiaris Clothes," but...
Is there something about that?
Sakura-chan...
I was thinking we should put Sumire-san's handmade clothes on her...
Ah...
Kiaris got its start with handmade clothes...
That would be good! Right? Yeah!
But I'm sure those are all gone, aren't they?
Sakura-chan.
They exist!
We've got lots of them!
Director. By the way, what should we do about the music?
Music?
Ah, for the time being, I've placed an order for music.
Since I think we'll need several songs...
...could you listen to them and advise us, Eisuke-san?
Ah...
Please do.
He's saying we'll have music composed for this movie?
Tha... that's awesome!
Kameda-san... have you ever seen any actors or actresses?
I have!
Awesome!
What should we do about the lyrics?
Since this is a precious memory for you, why don't all of you consider who will do that?
Ah... Ah, I... I'll do that.
Really?
Hmm...
Huh? What's the matter?
Lyrics... I can't come up with any at all. Nothing at all...
This is no laughing matter.
How about entrusting this or that part of the burden to someone else?
To who?
Huh?
To us.
To Be Continued
Yeah...
Huh?
