Episode 10
The wedding rings I have ordered from Harry Winston arrived
But you see
They did a mistake on the size of your ring
I told them this was unacceptable
So I sent the rings back
We're only a week away from the wedding
This is such a hassle !
Sakurako ?
Barefoot on the grass
Have you ever walked on the grass ?
Never
Since I was kid, a driver would take me everywhere I needed to go
Naturally
That is something for people with no money and a lot of time on their hands
Thank you for your business
She ran away again
Sorry about last night
It's Ok
Wakaba waited a long time
You took Sakurako's Dad to the Bus stop, right ?
I'm really sorry
Did Sakurako come as well ?
Yes, she did
Her Dad was so happy
It was great
Really ?
Osuke !
Take Wakaba to the airport
No, it's alright
I have few things to take care of before the flight
Bye
I'm going
Be careful
The number you are trying to reach
Are you almost done with the wedding preparations ?
Of course ! There's only a week left
A dress for the wedding
It has to be worthy of a parade
I'm sure all of Higashijyujyo's friends are rich
With the tricks you taught us
I will attack the table with the best people
You've told us many times that weddings are the best group dates
How naive !
Everyone will be too excited and focused solely on
the moment the priest asks us to kiss
That instant will be the high point for all the wedding guests
They will be too busy watching us embark on a new era
So you guy can forget about your plans to work the room
It is going to seem too opportunistic
Miss Jinno
The days of flying together are at an end
Do you really have to get married ?
I'm also sad about this, Chief
Chief
I
Can't fly today !
Nami has been calling Hanabusa since last night but he doesn't answer
That's why she won't fly
It's not that I don't understand her feelings but
That's why I've told you many times
Falling in love is forbidden !
Love will make you lose your powers of judgement
Swinging constantly between joy and depression will exhaust you
If you really want to be happy, this is a disease you have to avoid at all cost
No matter how sincere a man is, you can only trust money
Money will never betray a woman
About Osuke
What is it ?
Did something happen between you and that sincere man with no money ?
You went to the Bus stop last night, right ?
For 10 seconds only
Just like this
What are you talking about ?
I didn't go
Osuke told me you came to send you father off
What are you saying ? He's probably mistaken someone else for me
I didn't see him for a second even
Nakahara Osuke
That struggling poor man is working too hard
He was probably hallucinating !
Yamato Nadeshiko The Perfect Woman
Yes, I just arrived at Narita
I'm not tired at all !
See you
Sakurako !
You have to stop with the group dates
That's not it !
Higashi is so worried about me flying
He even came to the airport to pick me up
Since he loves you so much, why don't you try liking him more ?
That way you'll be happy
Hold on Wakaba ! Does it look like I'm having doubts about this wedding ?
It seems like you are forcing yourself to get married
Forced ?
Me ?
Higashijyujyo is the best person I met in all the 1500 group dates I have gone to
All the other men could never compare to him
Bye Bye
By the way
Sakurako
Are you sure it's alright not to invite the Sakumas ?
Dr.Sakuma is a very busy person so
We'll probably be bothering him
Even if they can't make it, we could at least invite them
Let's drop by their place and see what they say
What ?
It's only natural
They did take care of you, right ?
But Dr.Sakuma is really a very busy person
Yes ? This is Oharu
Professor !
It's gotten cold
The best time for Flounder, right ?
If you are gonna have some tomorrow
Could you bring it over ?
Yes
One Eye Flounder, right ?
Alright, then
Where should I deliver it ?
I want to make Sashimi with it
Bring it to my research lab
You are gonna eat it in the Lab ?
I'm just saying this as an excuse
The discussion we had the other day
Could you think about it one more time ?
Professor
That subject
I don't
Anyway, I'll be waiting for you at the lab tomorrow
See you
Good afternoon
That was a phone call from Professor Kurokawa ?
Yes
I'm delivering some fish to his research lab tomorrow
Osuke
He wants you back, right ?
If you want to try Mathematics again
Go ahead
I told you I was just delivery fish
You came together !
I apologize for dropping by unannounced
Mr.Higashijyujyo
really insisted on invited you to the wedding
If this is bothering you, we'll leave right away
Please come in
I'll give up on Nami
Hanabusa !
I'm counting on you to take care of her
Even if you say that, I can't take any responsibility
That hurts
Please let go
You surrender ?
Let go !
I won't !
Let go !
I won't !
That hurts !
I won't let go !
Welcome !
Good evening !
I didn't expect to see you all here together
Nice to meet you
I'm Higashijyujyo Tsukasa
This is !
I'm Kasuya from the Apple Credit Union
Your father Higashijyujyo Ichiro
is always a pleasure to serve
You coat !
I'll take care of it
Excuse me
Such a great coat !
Please come inside
Yes, this way please
Have a seat please
Good evening
Here's today's unsold fish
Why did you come together ?
Why ?
She just asked to come along, does it bother you ?
No
I have guests but
Come in
I've told you already many times
This isn't the set of a sitcom !
Mr.Nakahara ?
Miss Wakaba ?
Meeting you two here is a big surprise !
Dr.Sakuma really has a wide circle of friends
Welcome !
Sit down
They came to invite us for their wedding next week
Really ?
That's right !
The wedding is next week
Congratulations !
Thank you very much !
You really are going to marry her ?
Are you sure this is a good idea ?
Really ?
Yes
I received her father's permission last week
That funny old man !
You know him ?
That's because he came here
Everyone please eat a lot !
Kasuya !
You're already drunk
Who are you talking about ?
I forgot !
Today, I didn't bring the car
Let's have a pre-wedding party
And have fun drinking
Thank you very much !
Let's do that ! Let's drink !
This looks delicious
That's incredible !
Are you sure you want to get married with that person ?
Are you sure you won't regret it ?
Yes
Forget it man !
If you want to back out, do it now
If you want to back out, the time is now
Kasuya, that's enough
But I just started shooting sparkles
Idiot !
Kasuya is probably jealous
Because you two make a great couple
Of course, you met Sakurako at a group date, right ?
That's right
Of course ?
That's because we also met at a group date
Really ?
A group date between doctors and stewardesses would be a great idea
But we wouldn't be able to take part !
Which reminds me
Dr.Sakuma and Mariko knew each other from a club in university
I would love to hear how you decided to get married
I've told you before
Mariko was the only female member of the club
All the other members had a crush on her
You also had a lot of girlfriends
Yes, that's true
A very busy rented room
What made you propose to Mariko ?
I was under pressure
The other guy wasn't very active
He couldn't express his feelings well but
It was the Christmas before we graduated
He gave Mariko an unbelievable gift
A Hokkaido Biei Station
Plate
Half joking
I once said that the thing I wanted the most
Was a Biei Station plate
I said that in front of everyone
I had bought
What makes every woman happy
Tiffany Beans
But that guy went all the way to Hokkaido
To steal a Train Station plate
That really moved me
When I saw her reaction, I knew I was in trouble
He was gonna take Mariko's heart
On Christmas Eve
at a relatives' place
I went down on my knees and proposed to Mariko
Please marry me ! If you don't I will kill myself by jumping out of this window right now
No way !
That's what happened ?
It did but no one knows about it
If I hadn't, I would have lost her to that guy because of that one gift
To Mariko, that present was a very important thing
That guy's most important thing
Didn't know that he was almost victorious thanks to that cheap gift
And he also
Never found out
That he was ahead in her heart
Can I have another bottle of wine ?
Yes, go ahead
It's in the fridge, on the second shelf
The story you told earlier
It was beautiful
Your praise is quite unexpected
If it were me, I would have chosen Tiffany with no hesitation
Your set of values are always straightforward and easy to understand
But normally
Most people do not know what matters to them the most
What do you mean ?
Lucky is the person who can figure it out before he loses it
But most people
Only figure it out after they lost it
Me
It's when I was about to lose Mariko that I finally figured it out
I realized how important she was to me
That's why I went down on my knees as fast as I could
When I was going out with her, I didn't see it
It's when things went bad that I finally saw it
If that guy hadn't pressured me
I would have never realized
What was the most important thing to me
Here you go
Sakurako ?
What is your most important thing ?
That's mo...
Mo ?
O
Chameleon !
The Chameleon you gave me
It was a big shock to me when I lost it in a hotel room in Paris
So this made me very happy
That's great
Good night !
Sakurako !
To you, Osuke
The most important thing
Is it the Oharu shop ?
Yes
Something like that
And the most important person ?
At Sakuma's house
You and Sakurako were lying
When I saw that
It angered me
Sakurako
Sakurako also lied about meeting you at the Bus stop
I am
What am I to you ?
Frankly speaking
I still
Don't know
But
If we get to know each other more
There's a chance this may grow into love
Like this thing
It's like folding paper, right ?
What ?
If you keep folding it
And folding it
If you fold it 42 times
It will becomes very tough
Folded enough times, this newspaper could fly to the Moon
No way !
It's true
0.1 mm multiplied by 2 to the power of 42 gives you 400 000 Km
Really ?
That way
It may be insignificant
But with enough time
You will definitely find the most important thing to you
What ?
This doesn't answer your question at all
No
You've answered it enough
Give me a break !
I have a date now !
You can't go !
You're wrong. It's not with Nami
Not Nami ?
Then who is it ?
I don't have to tell you !
Who is it ?
That ring !
I'll get it
Hello !
Mr.Kasuya ?
I want to see you
What's wrong, Nami ?
How much did you drink ?
Enough not to be able to walk anymore
Surprise attack !
A love hotel here of all places !
Tea
Nami
Hanabusa, that idiot !
What ?
He hasn't been answering my calls for while now
It seems like I've been dumped
What ?
I
Whenever I get serious, it always ends up like this
I'm in full control when I am two-timing but
When I get serious about a man
I end up suffocating him
That's because
When I fall in love
Morning, day and night
I can't think of anything else but him
If he cares about me
I'd do anything he asks of me
I've made this one dislike me as well
Nami
Mr.Kasuya
Why aren't you doing anything ?
To ask such a thing from a crying woman in pain
Is that the kind of old man I seem to you ?
Your hand !
Mr.Kasuya ?
It's Karaoke time !
At times like these, Karaoke is the best thing !
Ok
Ouch !
This is delicious !
Really ?
I'm glad
One Eye Flounder
Isn't as hard as a stone
It's called the One Eye Stone because the body of the fish looks like a stone
That's why !
That's where it gets its name ?
The mystery is finally solved ! What a load off my mind !
And it's very delicious too
Thank you for bringing it over
We're done ?
Yes
What is it ?
So I'll go now
Excuse me
This !
This is what you were talking about ?
It's a foundation in differential geometry ?
That research student
is having trouble
It's a problem
Could I take a look ?
Sure
This is using the Newlander–Nirenberg theorem
Miss Jinno
This day is finally here
The Goodbye day is here
Miss Jinno
Thank you for all your hard work
Everyone
Thank you for taking care of me
Jinno Sakurako
After this flight
Will retire to get married
When I think about it
The 5 years I have worn this uniform
With such a kind Chief
And splendid colleagues
Thanks to you the life of a stewardess was a truly wonderful experience
Strict training
Flying in bad weather
Standing up for hours
There were painful things too
But
I am
Very proud of this job
Even in my next life
I will definitely become a stewardess
The plane is an ideal place to meet rich guys
Going out on group dates after exhausting shifts is what this job is about
Stewardesses live only for group dates
It's mission accomplished for me !
Thank you very much
You don't want any of these dresses ?
Bags too ?
From now on, I have to change into Mme Russell
You too can go to a group date ?
Yes we can !
Are you giving us everything ?
You can have it
Does that mean you want to give it another try ?
At your age ? What are you thinking ?
Right !
I'm old
And no talent, right ?
But Professor Kurokawa wants you to take on that challenge once more, right ?
But you know
There's the shop
Just give it up !
During your research abroad, those Maths geniuses wiped the floor with you, right ?
Do you think you can still do it at your age ?
You're absolutely right !
I quit
Yes you do that !
As soon as you start with Maths, you stop drinking too
These times we spend drinking here together would be over
You'll also stop bringing us unsold fish
You have to quit that idea !
What is this ?
You guys are only thinking of yourselves
So you're going back to that world ?
No
I'll quit but
Osuke, you don't want to get hurt anymore, right ?
That's why you build walls around you to protect yourself
If you don't give it your best, you'll never grasp it
If you are not serious about it, you better give it up
This is a touching story but the truth is you ran away
To you, taking care of the shop your father left you is the most important thing
Mariko ?
What are you telling him ?
I give up
What ?
What is it ?
I'm done
Oh yes !
Tomorrow, that group date woman is getting married
Kasuya !
Don't bring that up anymore !
Mathematics and that woman
Are now unreachable dreams to Osuke
Right ?
Thank you for all these great clothes
So tomorrow, you're the Queen of the wedding
Bye
Thank you for the meal
You !
Are you sure this is what you want ?
Sorry ?
Heed the destiny that God has bestowed upon you
Are you sure about this ?
What ?
Are you sure about this ?
Today is the day !
I am sure about this !
Get out the way !
Watch it ! You idiot !
I'm sorry
Yes ?
Prime Minister Naikaku
I am counting on you today
Regardless of being a Prime Minister
To be giving away such a beautiful bride
It's my happiness
I'll let you get ready
Excuse me !
Sakurako, congratulations !
Thank you
This is really beautiful
A woman's happiness is to have a grand wedding
Sakurako was right !
This way is the best
Whether you like the wedding or not is irrelevant
What matters is financial security
That's why this way is the best
We'll be waiting in the hall
Yes ?
Congratulations, Sakurako
Mrs.Mariko
Where is Dr.Sakuma ?
He'll be here, he was just delayed
An emergency ?
It's a little silly
Osuke got hit on the head at the fish market
Its nothing serious but he's gonna need some stitches
Sakuma said he'll come as soon as he's done with that
But never mind that
You are very beautiful, Sakurako !
Thank you very much
He'll be fine after a good sleep
Osuke ?
Open your eyes !
Don't die, Osuke !
Don't die !
Don't leave me alone !
Don't abandon me !
What about me ?
I'll be going now
He's not in danger !
Hello ?
I see
What ?
What did you say ?
I got it, I'll be right there !
I'm going back to the hospital
Osuke is critical
I'm sure
Your painful memories
The day when you will forget it all is coming
Osuke is poor but
I'm sure he'll make you happy
What can't be bought with money
The most unique thing
I have to go
Sakurako ?
Please stay as you are
Stay as you are
As you are !
Goodbye !
It's really strange
The miracle I was praying for was so close to me !
You'll catch a cold
You'll get sick !
I hate you now. Goodbye
If the rule of perseverance is lacking
even if two people meant for each other meet
they will just brush past each other
without ever seeing each other
without ever speaking to each other
You were afraid of getting rich
Talking to you drives me crazy !
Don't make me laugh !
Why did you go to Boston in the first place ?
Had I known I was gonna quit halfway
I wouldn't have gone to Boston
Hurry up !
For your wedding
Congratulations
Please be happy
Tsukasa !
What's going on ?
What will happen to the wedding ?
We have invited 800 guests
Sakurako ran away
Sakurako ?
I see, you overheard me on the phone
Osuke's condition becoming critical was a false alarm
That idiot, Kasuya
He was so worried
That he didn't notice he had disconnected the ECG machine with his leg
And that moron Hanabusa
Actually thought Osuke's heart had stopped
Osuke is now undergoing a final check up
It was just a little scratch so he will be discharged today
I swear. I really panicked because of what Kasuya did
That's so true
The code blue gave us all a fright
You've become senile
Idiot !
He only has a small bruise, right ?
I'm busy
I'm going home
I'm sorry !
I made everyone worry
I was surprised to see you here
For you to come running from the Church in that outfit
People in the street must have stared at you
I don't understand
How did I get here ?
I don't remember
That's
That's the shock of losing someone important to you
You were probably overwhelmed
The most important person
Did you finally realize who that is ?
But it's too late
You can't
go back
You should hurry back to the Church
Sakurako, where did you go ?
What ? Sakurako disappeared ?
She hasn't called you ?
Her cellphone is turned off
She hasn't come back to her apartment
This is indeed very worrying
If I hear anything I will call you
Later
That woman probably did something crazy
Why didn't you tell him she came to the hospital ?
How can I tell him that ?
She showed up in her wedding dress !
Did you tell Osuke ?
It's better he didn't find out. For his sake
Sakurako
She'll appear for Osuke
One more time, I'm sure
What ?
Fish cases ?
Are you alright ?
Yes
It was no big deal
By the way ! The wedding was today, right ?
Yes
The ceremony
was lively ?
Yes
It was a magnificent wedding
Sakurako and Higashijyujyo looked very happy
Really ?
Sakurako !
Where did you go ?
Don't cry. One day I will come for you
You will forget all your painful memories
I will definitely come for you
Damn
I'm at a dead end
Sakurako !
What's wrong ?
Yesterday
You got married, right ?
What are you doing here ?
That's right
My wedding was yesterday
But
I ran away
Ran away
Ran away ?
Why ?
People sometimes do things they can't explain
At that time
What made me run out of the Church
And rush to the hospital they took you to
How I got there
I can't explain any of it. I have no memory of it
To the hospital ?
I was
Worried I would never see you again
I can only explain how I felt at the time
Once I understood, I couldn't ignore it
If there is a unique and all important thing
That is
In other words
In conclusion
I wouldn't call it a conclusion
This late
What is being rich ?
A person without money
Whether they exist or not is the same
That's what I used to think
But I was wrong
You
From the beginning
Were in front of me
Inside me
You have been
Thank you very much
From someone like you
Hearing these words
Would make any man happy
Pops !
Where were you yesterday ?
Didn't you promise to help me with my homework ?
Pops !
Show me
Division ?
Just one problem
Ok, 8 divided by 2 is 6 ?
This is not subtraction !
6 eggs
How many ?
Divided evenly amongst 3 people, how many would each get ?
2
That's it !
You did it !
I see !
Thank you !
See you, Pops !
I told you not to call me Pops !
The time when we saw your father off
At the Bus stop, you told me
One day the Prince will come for me
And that it wasn't me
Really, I have nothing of a Prince
I thought so too
No matter how much I thought about it
I wasn't suitable for you
That's true, right ?
That wouldn't be like you
Shouldn't you go back now to Mr.Higashijyujyo ?
That would be the best thing for you
That has already been decided
I understand
I'm sorry
No
I'm the one who's sorry
You're absolutely right
Please forget what just happened
I don't know what I was thinking
Really, what the hell was I saying ?
You have Wakaba too
That was very rude of me
