Episode 185
I can't get through to them on the phone, either.
They told me at the post office
that Kaga-ya's phone has been disconnected.
The letters keep coming back, and we can't call.
I don't know what's going on...
Maybe we should go to Sakata.
We can't just ignore Okayo's husband's death.
I'd love to go, but...
Maybe we won't be able to do much.
But at least, we'll be able to offer encouragement.
I'll get the money together. We'll ask Hisa for help.
I feel so badly for all the expenses I cause you...
It's okay.
What about Hitoshi?
He's three months old now. We can take him with us.
I've known Okayo longer than I've known you.
And I was able to meet you through her.
She means a lot to the both of us.
Thank you.
I'll go talk to Hisa. The sooner the better!
Hello.
Welcome, how may I help you?
I'm not here for fish. I got a call from Mrs. Kamiyama.
She wants Oshin to come right over.
Thank you very much.
Think nothing of it.
Thank you.
What could it be?
You'd better get over there.
Ask her for a loan for our Sakata trip, too.
Tell her we'll pay her back when we receive payment from our customers.
Okay. Please watch Yuu and Hitoshi for me.
Hello, Oshin.
I'm sorry I called you over so suddenly.
It's so good to see the ocean again.
You didn't bring Hitoshi?
I left him at home. He's sleeping.
Is it an emergency?
That wanderer is here again, and he insists on seeing you.
Kota is here?
I'm sure this is a big bother to you.
Come on inside.
He talks big like he is helping humanity!
All he really does is cause trouble to those around him.
Before you help humanity,
make your family and friends happy!
You'd better change your ways!
See? This is what I get.
I heard about your shop... I wanted to go to see you there,
but I didn't want to cause you any problems.
You're wanted by the police.
You don't want Oshin's business to get into trouble.
That's why I asked you to have her come here.
It's about Miss Okayo...
You must have a lot to talk about.
You two can talk while I run some errands.
I know it's a bother, but hear him out.
I heard that your mother died.
Yes...
She had nothing but hardships in her life.
Japanese farmers can never live well
as long as the sharecropper system still exists.
The secret police have been on our trail.
We can't do much openly anymore.
I'm glad to see you're happy.
I am. I'm so fortunate compared to my mother.
At least the four of us are under one roof,
and we're not starving. I owe it all to you.
No. It's thanks to your hard work and perseverance.
That's why your family is all together now.
What do you know about Miss Okayo?
Do you know where Okayo is?
No...
I heard that her husband killed himself.
But I couldn't get in touch with her to find out...
So she hasn't contacted you...
I was hoping she was here in Ise with you.
Isn't she still at Kaga-ya?
You didn't know that Kaga-ya went bankrupt?
B-Bankrupt?
How?!
When I was in that part of the country,
I heard people talking about Kaga-ya,
so I rushed over there.
I saw that their business had been foreclosed.
Nobody was there. Not even the employees.
Where's the family now?
Nobody knows.
They all disappeared in the middle of the night.
If only I'd gotten to Sakata sooner,
I would've been able to see Okayo and talk to her.
Maybe I could've helped her.
Did her husband kill himself over the failure of Kaga-ya?
I only heard rumors...
He'd been investing in the commodities market.
And in March, the market collapsed.
They'd mortgaged their shop and house, but it wasn't enough.
He felt responsible for the family losses and committed suicide.
That caused everything to collapse. The business lost its clients' trust.
Why did he invest in commodities?
Why couldn't he have just concentrated on the family business?
As a man, I can understand.
He was an adoptive husband.
If he only looked after the Kaga-ya business,
he could never be his own man.
He wanted to do something he could take credit for,
so that people would respect him more.
He wanted to use the money he made
to make the Kaga-ya business bigger.
He and Miss Okayo weren't getting along for a long time...
But, I was hoping things were better after Nozomi was born.
I think all that made him feel more desperate.
The first thing to do now is to find Okayo.
I feel responsible towards Okayo, too.
If only...
If only I'd told Miss Okayo about you before she got married...
Oshin...
About the fact that you'd returned to her apartment in Tokyo...
I never did tell her...
And that might have caused all this...
Don't be silly!
If she hadn't taken an adoptive husband,
she would've had a whole different life.
I betrayed Miss Okayo.
It's fate.
Fate is the only explanation.
My meeting Okayo, and my meeting you.
I ruined her life...
Oshin!
I think she'll get in touch with you.
When she does, take care of her.
I will.
I'll be looking for her on my own, too.
Do you have an idea where she might be?
If she's in trouble, I want to help her.
That's the least I can do for her to make up for the past.
Welcome home.
Thank you, Yuu.
Sorry to take so long.
I meant to come home before evening,
but you had to do everything by yourself.
Yuu helped me out a lot.
He's like you. He's a hard worker.
He'll make a good fish dealer one day.
What did Hisa say?
- I'll make dinner right away. - Wait.
Did you tell her about our going to Sakata?
We won't have to go there now...
There's nobody there in Sakata.
Oshin waited every day for word from Okayo.
But she didn't hear from Okayo or Kota,
and it was now the spring of 1931.
We'll cut it all up for you, too.
- Thank you! - Thank you!
I found Okayo.
