The next shot is for "Kiaris Clothes," but...
Sakura-chan.
I was thinking we should put Sumire-san's handmade clothes on her...
Kiaris got its start with handmade clothes...
That would be good! Right? Yeah!
But I'm sure those are all gone, aren't they?
They exist!
We've got lots of them!
Eh?!
Don't we?
Yes!
We have lots of them!
You can't have...
Yeah! Tons of them!

I'm home.
Ah Ken-chan, welcome back.
Those are...
Ah...
They're clothes I made for Sakura a long time ago.
Ah... that one brings back memories. This cardigan she wore with the ribbons on it.
When I had to remake it since she was growing out of it...
...that was when I put these ribbons on it. I wonder how many years it's been since she wore it?
I'd be happy if Ai could wear all of these though...
Really?
Ah... well, I was just really happy about that...
My mother made a lot of things for me as well, long ago.
Those times when my Mother was feeling better, my Father would buy her British-made cloth...
...and she would make customized one-piece dresses from it.
Well but, all those were lost during the war though... yeah.
Ah...
Ken-chan.
They're filming outside at the moment.
Ah... yes.
Ah...
You brought out my old clothes as well, huh?
Of course I would.
I had heard from Ryoko-chan that boys liked having pockets, so I sewed on a lot of them.
Since in those days...
...we didn't sell children's clothes.
That's true. Now it's just natural for us.
So it was good that we did this sort of thing back then, isn't it?
Yeah.
If all we had thought about was "business, business," I'm sure we wouldn't be the Kiaris we are now.
Ah... Eisuke-san. What's that?
Ah... I gathered some excess film stock from friends of mine.
Since the Director is too enamored watching the leading lady to call "Cut" the way he should.
Thank you.
Eisuke-san.
What about you and President Kokado?
He taught me a number of things.
Don't be manipulated by him.
You want to dig into the market that AIS nurtured?
Yes. The present situation is that there are salarymen who want to have suits, but can't get any.
Why do this now?
Eisuke's intention to target a reaction from men across Japan was realized.
He wanted to make men throughout Japan look cool.
He was able to create a huge, huge fashion wave.
The time to shine a light on men's clothing fashion is right now.
Our store will prepare a spot for it.
However, this may become a dangerous voyage for you.
Yes. I'm prepared for that.
Some gimmick that would cause a splash?
I remember doing those back when.
I have to live up to Chairman Oshima and President Koyama's expectations...
This is just a for example...
What is it?
Ah... I had two ideas.
The first is an idea I had long ago...
Why are the salesclerks at men's stores always only men?
Since it's clothes for men, so men should...
Ah, yeah, but...
I heard this from the mothers of my English language students...
Seems since they would go in not knowing what their correct sizes were...
...their husband's clothes wouldn't fit them very well as a result.
And I'm sure whenever they have to attend an important event...
...all those husbands will ask their wives for their opinions on how they look.
Like... "Is this necktie weird?"...
...or, "does this look okay?"
And so, I wondered...
...how about if we had women salesclerks who would be attuned to those fine details?
Sorry... For saying things you already know...
Yes! It's great! You get top marks for that!
Really?
And so...
I want you to do that, Yuri.
Me?
Come back to the company...
...and work for us once more.
Well... I could, but...
You accomplished raising our child.
You made a home for us we want to hurry to come back to.
You're the perfect mom and the perfect wife.
If I'm ever reborn...
...I'd want to meet you, marry you and live with you again, Yuri.
We've grown old together.
We have, but we still have a lot of life left to live.
Let's have fun at it, together.
Last Day
Narration Recording
14 min
"To the mothers who are at a loss when they have a crying child before them."
And thus it was the final day of filming.
When this narration is over, filming will be completed at last.
Yes! Cut! That's OK!
Oh!
Norio-san, thank you for your hard work.
For me, huh? Thank you.
You outdid yourself, didn't you?
Thank you!
Whaa! She's so adorable.
Thank you. That's great, isn't it, Ai?
Thank you for your hard work.
Thank you very much. Everyone!
You really worked your hardest!
Kameda-san, what's the matter?
It's nothing...
Actually, I found out during the making of this film that I will be having a child of my own...
I'll remember how to bathe them, how to put clothes on them and how to do their laundry.
I'll do my best to become a great Father to them!
Well then, I'm here.
Thank you for all your help. You saved us.
And thanks for your help.
Truth is, I was thinking I'd leave Kiyoshi-san's house soon...
Is that right. In that case, I can't say I'm surprised.
That's true, huh.
That's how it should be. Just go with the flow.
It's fine to let your body go where it will.
Allow it to drift to the place where you can live properly.
My dead mother would say that a lot.
Say, how was making a movie?
Ah...
I guess... I do enjoy making things.
That's true, huh. So long.
So long.
Well, we're here to say we've finished the movie and will be previewing it.
We'll show it off first to all our employees...
Kiyoshi-san, Onee-chan, you come, too. And Eisuke-san, too.
Of course we'll be there.
I'm looking forward to it.
Eisuke.
Yes?
I have something to ask of you.
I feel Orion should take on a new challenge from here on.
I'm thinking of us selling suits that young salarymen would want to wear.
I'm thinking I'll take this opportunity to rejoin the company as well.
Eh?
Onee-chan...
Eisuke.
Yes.
Could you give a course on "Men Dressing Well"?
Me?
You have a passion for that, right? There's still so much more you want to convey, isn't there?
Lend me your strength.
You aren't a person who should be left buried away like this.
I'm grateful to you.
But... There were once 100 AIS employees.
Hundreds more if you count their families. All of them who worked so hard for me...
What I did caused all of those families to be mislead and to be left by the wayside.
I... am not a person who is fit to stand before other people giving lectures.
In that case...
...you'll spend the rest of your life living by running around from place to place?
You'll say "I'm not fit for it" whenever an opportunity comes along?
That "I'm not fit to be happy"?
You only get one life. Are you really... Are you really sure about this?
Well then, so that all of you can dress being cool...
"Iwase Eisuke's Lessons in Men's Wear" Starts!
Iwase-san, where have you been up till now?
Please give us details about your disappearance and your mental state.
What mental state are you in that you came out with this timing?
