Masa-niichan isn't happy.
I wonder if it was really necessary for us to get married.
Naoko-san, don't you have a sweetheart?
I don't.
Why are you treating Naoko like an enemy?
That wedding was also one of your performances.
I want to make it so that you are mine alone.
Why can't you understand that?
I'm sorry. Ever since you came out to Tokyo, I haven't done anything for you.
Let's you and I go get something to eat next time.
Really?
Really.
Hello?
It seems someone has come.
Eh?!
I'm scared.
There's no one there.
I'll come right away.
Make sure you don't open the door!
Naoko-san.
You don't have to open the door.
Because I don't want to see your face, either.
Naoko-san.
Are you a dog or a cat?
You are a person...
...who soils herself with her filthy desires.
You are Masato's niece.
A person who is a niece shouldn't look upon their uncle...
...as if he were a man.
That's...
...so disgusting.
Is it your intention to make a mess of Masato's future?
If you think you want to live respectably as a human being...
...and not as a dog or cat...
...then...
...don't confuse Masato like this ever again.
Have some integrity as a human being.
If you can't do that...
...then please drop out of Towa Medical University.
Becoming a doctor mustn't be taken lightly.
Because an impure person like you...
...couldn't endure the 6 years of study.
Think hard about that.
Naoko.
Naoko, it's me.
There's no one else out here.
Are you okay? Who was it?
Who came?
That person.
Eh?
Aya?
Aya came?
That person stood outside the door...
...and asked if I was a dog or cat.
She said it was wrong for me to be in love with Masa-niichan.
She told me to quit the University.
What are you saying?
You went through so much to get into Medical school...
She said I should forget it now.
With that, that person and Masa-niichan can be happy, she said.
It's not your fault that Aya and I aren't getting along well.
So don't worry about whatever she says.
That person is scary.
But...
...what that person said...
...did make me understand one little thing.
Eh?
That if the rain hadn't fallen that day...
...I wouldn't have realized my own feelings...
...and I would still be in Ushimado, succeeding to our olive groves.
Still, didn't you say you had decided to become a doctor?
You worked your hardest and got into Towa Medical University...
...so you could make your dream come true, didn't you?
How can you say you'll just cast aside that intention?
Naoko, you mustn't run away.
You should be dignified.
That's true, but...
Right now...
...we're all in a state of confusion.
But in time...
...I'm sure these things will all settle down.
Leave your thoughts there for today and get some sleep.
I'll be here until morning, so sleep peacefully.
"Why is Masato in there?"
"Why do I..."
"...have to do this?"
"I'm..."
"...far more excellent at everything than that girl."
"Why..."
"...is Masato showing off to that girl?"
"Futon, futon."
"Futon, Futon, Futon, Futon."
"Make it tighter!"
"Okay!"
- Huh? - Nothing.
"It's bad to leave food out like that."
"That's why we have a housekeeper, isn't it?"
"You're fine. I'll just take them to the sink."
"Why are you treating Naoko like an enemy?"
"Don't people want to talk with the person they love?"
"It's like you're really just living here alone."
"I wonder if it was really necessary for us to get married."
"That wedding was also one of your performances."
"You thought it'd be best to get married before who knew what might happen."
"I just can't see them."
"Aya's feelings."
"Why do you want to hurt her?"
Heiwa Fansubs Presents "Mitsu no Aji"
Episode 4: "Are You a Dog or Cat? Get Rid of Your Filthy Desires!"
Good morning.
Here.
Oh. Thank you.
"You are Masato's niece."
Do you have a minute?
I'm busy at the moment.
5 minutes'll do.
Eh? Ikezawa's gotten stronger since his marriage.
It's our problem if we aren't getting along.
Why are you blaming Naoko?
That same talk as last night?
Going over to Naoko's apartment in the middle of the night is going too far!
- Eh? - Don't play dumb.
I don't know what you're talking about.
After all, I spent all of last night in our home.
Thing is, why would I even go over to Naoko-san's place for?
Naoko isn't a girl who tells lies.
Naoko-san said that? That I had come?
Yeah.
I don't believe this.
Don't involve Naoko in our issues.
Masato, did you go over to Naoko-san's apartment last night?
I did.
You left our home last night...
...and then went over to Naoko-san's place?
I went to the hospital first.
Then, when did you go over to Naoko-san's place?
While Naoko and I were talking on the phone, she said someone had come, scaring her.
It would be strange for someone to come there at that time of night, wouldn't it?
So I...
You got a call from Naoko-san?
- I called her. - For what reason?
I was worried about her, so I called.
Did you hear anyone's voice during that call?
You didn't hear anyone?
Even so, Naoko was really trembling.
Naoko-san said someone had come and that she was scared.
So you said you would come to her apartment.
By doing that, she knew for certain that you would come.
But in fact...
...no one had come.
That's not true. You went to Naoko's place.
And then, from outside her door, you cornered her.
I didn't go.
Masato...
...who do you believe; me or that girl?
Think carefully about this.
Last night, Naoko-san was at our home until around 10 pm.
What need would there have been for me to go over to her apartment immediately afterwards?
Moreover, it's only about 5 minutes from Naoko-san's apartment to the hospital, isn't it?
When you arrived at her apartment, was I there?
That'd mean as soon as I arrived at her apartment, I'd have to turn around and come back, doesn't it?
So Naoko-san's story is rather strange, isn't it?
You could have...
Perhaps she's delusional.
She thinks that she isn't lying...
...and that I really did come.
If that's so, then she's ill.
At the time I first met Naoko-san, I got the impression she was an unstable girl.
After all yesterday...
...though she hadn't liked it before...
...she then then suddenly asked if she could come over with a bunch of friends.
Somehow, I thought that was a little strange.
It's no wonder that you would believe Naoko-san's story.
That was the only part of her story that bore any reality to it.
After all...
...she's convinced herself that her delusions are in fact real.
I'm worried about her.
Should we have her examined by the Psychosomatic Department?
Oh no. I'm out of time; I need to get back.
Isn't that a forbidden affair?
If you know the word "forbidden," you really know Japanese.
I'm certified in Japanese at Level 1.
But it's rude to suddenly appear in the middle of the night...
...saying you're having a forbidden affair and asking if you're a dog or cat.
If you lose your nerve and quit the University, then you lose.
I know.
I won't drop out of the University.
Just what is Ikezawa-sensei of Surgery thinking, anyhow?
Can't he see that the more kindly he treats you, the more your feelings will burst into flames?
Anyhow, you aren't going to meet that married couple anymore, are you?
Even if you say that...
What should I do?
Why don't you come and stay in my apartment?
Eh?
And I could go stay in your apartment.
That's...
Don't answer his calls. Don't tell him where you are.
If you don't do that, this will never end.
"After all, she's convinced herself that her delusions are in fact real."
Who made you the onigiri?
I'll give you one.
Eh?
No. The person who made it would be angry.
Ikezawa-kun.
- Yes? - A moment.
Yes.
This onigiri wasn't made by his wife.
Huh? Isn't that something a newly-married couple does?
What I mean is, this is saying the Queen of Pathology and Ikezawa-sensei...
...aren't getting along.
Ah. But still, that doesn't mean he'll take you in as his mistress, Kana.
A mistress is a mistress. That's not as tough as being a wife.
But if they got divorced, then you'd go from being mistress to being his wife?
Such things happen, don't they?
To America?
Professor Brown of the Pittsburgh University...
...is saying he would be fine taking you in as one of his surgeons.
Wouldn't you like to study liver transplants under him?
"You will be connected to the answering machine. At the tone..."
"How are you doing?"
"I'm worried about you."
"Sending"
Yes!
Thank you for the meal last night.
In the same class as Morimoto-san, I'm Rai Yoka.
Ah, hello.
Morimoto-san has gone on a trip.
- A trip? - She didn't say where she was going.
I'm...
...Naoko's only relative here in Tokyo.
If I don't know where she's gone, that's a problem.
If you give Morimoto-san too much of your sympathy...
...you'll just be playing with her heart.
For such a smart Sensei as yourself, that would be impossible not to understand, wouldn't it?
Please leave Morimoto-san alone already!
Ah, wait. Just one thing.
Have you...
...felt anything strange...
...about Naoko's behavior recently?
Huh?
For example...
...if she's been having delusions...
...about things that aren't there.
Delusions? What is that?
There's no way that could be, now is there?
Sensei, rather than Morimoto-san...
...please keep a close eye on your wife instead.
Isn't it the lowest to come out in the middle of the night to threaten Morimoto-san?
I'm closing the door.
It's OK.
Ah...
I wonder if this really is okay?
There can be no tomorrow for a forbidden affair.
You have to be strong.
This is it.
Eh?
It faces north, so it's cold in the winter, but it's cool during the summer.
Where's the bathroom?
- It's shared. - Eh?!
- There's no bath, either. - no way!
But it's only a minute's walk to the public bath.
I'm home.
Welcome back.
What's wrong? You look scared.
Did you hear the opinion of the Psychosomatic Department?
Don't you...
...think we have enough difficulties?
Even after going out with you for 5 years, I never recognized it but...
Once we started living together...
...I understood that we are entirely different people.
I think even you are in pain.
It became painful after that girl came to Tokyo.
This has nothing to do with Naoko.
You're just over-reacting to her.
I wonder.
Aya...
...you love research more than anything.
You spend more time researching...
...than you do with me.
Didn't you promise we would consider our lives as doctors as being premier when we were married?
That's the same goal of every doctor.
However...
...if the goals of both members of a married couple are too different, they can't live together.
It's not that.
If that girl wasn't here, the two of us would be helping one another out.
All I want are the normal conversations that any married couple has.
That has nothing to do with Naoko.
She's the cause of this.
And the moment I want you to get rid of it, you call it an over-reaction.
That girl is dreadful.
She's confused you this much.
Starting tomorrow...
...I'll be renting a weekly apartment...
...so let's cool off for awhile.
Don't tell me...
...you're thinking of living with Naoko-san?
There's no way that could happen, now could there!?
She's my niece. She's nothing more or less than that.
It's illogical to make that misunderstanding and condemn Naoko in the middle of the night like that.
You believe her more than you do me?
That doesn't matter anymore.
Stay here.
Please, stay here.
- We're out of eggs. - Go get them yourself.
Here, Norisugi-kun.
- Please put those in. - We've eaten all of Miss Gusto's eggs.
That's okay.
Norisugi-kun! You can't just come into Miss Gusto's home and do that sort of thing.
Buy some eggs yourself and come back with them.
That's enough about Miss Gusto.
You're refreshing and wonderful.
I wish Ikezawa-sensei would look as refreshed as Norisugi-kun is.
What's that about?
I'm just thinking aloud.
"Incoming Call Parent's Home"
Yes?
There's an olive oil fair in Tokyo next week I'll be going to...
...so would it be okay if I stayed over at your apartment?
Eh?
Your mother was saying your place is too small, so suggested I stay at Masato's place instead.
My place is fine.
Masa-niichan's busy, after all.
In that case, I'll be there Friday night. Countin' on ya.
Yes.
"Incoming Call Masa-niichan"
"Don't answer his calls. Don't tell him where you are."
"If you don't do that, this will never end."
"Incoming Call Masa-niichan"
Hello?
You picked up at last.
Where did you go?
Don't just disappear like that.
Because...
It's gotten painful in that apartment.
Why won't you listen to what I say?
Didn't I tell you not to run away?
Are you angry?
Of course I am!
I have to get angry with you once in a while.
Come back right away.
Let's meet tonight.
I can meet you around 8, after my operation is over.
Wait for me at 8 next to the east exit bridge at the Musashikeoka Station.
Hello? Did you hear me?
Yeah.
Be sure and come.
Yes.
This is the first example of an over-gene expression to be recognized in a GIST.
I wonder if this isn't some sort of artifact?
The preservation state of the RNA extraction hadn't gone wrong.
I wonder. Wouldn't it be best to change your approach?
Eh?!
Professor, you're making a fuss over the Ma-gene, aren't you?
To begin with, I'm supposed to be showing the surgical trainees the advances made in organs.
Aren't you acting strangely today?
I'm starving.
Eh?!
Professor.
Won't you have lunch with all of us every now and then?
Huh?
What are you having?
The pepperoncino.
- I'll have the pepperoncino, too. - Me, too.
The pepperoncino for me as well, please.
Since we don't have to meet with patients, it's okay if we smell of garlic.
I'll have the pepperoncino, too.
Then, me too.
Yes. Certainly.
The Professor, with the exception of his research, can't decide on anything by himself.
On a high, aren't you Harada-kun?
I'm Ikezawa.
Ah, that's right.
And is it due to the newly-wed crazies that you opposed me on that trifling matter earlier?
I was just stating my opinion.
It's because you married such a man. Hurry and dump him.
Ah...
That's true. I should dump him.
Dump him, dump him!
I want to dump him.
Make sure his intestinal tract doesn't come out.
Yes.
I'll suture the embedding skin.
Should be fun.
I'm starting to get really hungry.
That's true.
"You are Masato's niece."
"There can be no tomorrow for a forbidden affair."
"Naoko, you shouldn't run away."
"You should be dignified."
"Is it your intention to make a mess of Masato's future?"
"Don't confuse Masato like this ever again."
Naoko.
I'm thinking of breaking up with Aya.
I've said this many times, but this isn't because of you, Naoko.
You don't love her anymore?
It's not about loving or hating one another.
We just can't be together.
Hmm...
From the start, she's been a person who's highest priority is research...
...so our marriage...
...was one of opposites.
I think...
...that person loves you though.
So I've been getting in her way.
Our ways of thinking are just too different.
It's difficult living together, isn't it?
Masa-niichan, yesterday...
...you asked Rai-Rai...
...if I was delusional.
What was that about?
At that time...
...I was in the room.
Is there something strange about me?
If you don't want to tell me, you don't have to.
So it was true that Aya came to Naoko's apartment, wasn't it?
- Eh? - Well...
Aya...
...was insisting that that was just a delusion of yours.
You thought I'd been lying.
No. It's not that.
From the start, I've believed in you.
But...
...I needed to make sure.
I may be strange...
...but I wouldn't lie to you, Masa-niichan.
I believe you, Naoko.
You're terrible.
I'm sorry.
You're terrible.
Sorry about that.
The pepperoncino at lunch today was great, wasn't it?
Everyone enjoyed themselves.
It's been a long time since we ate out like that.
It didn't have any taste.
Don't worry about it.
I hated seeing Professor Kirishima's jealousy over your happiness though.
That's why he was saying to hurry and dump him.
If he doesn't want to look at me...
...then I wish he'd go somewhere far away.
He has been looking at you.
Ikezawa's been looking at you all this time. Deeply so.
Up until now, right?
Things really aren't going well?
I don't believe it.
I threw away the ring here.
Ring?
The ring you bought me...
...on the day of the summer festival when I was little.
You don't remember?
I guess not.
The night before the night of the wedding...
...I threw it away from here.
Today while waiting for you...
...I thought several times about just going home.
But I couldn't go back.
I wanted to meet you, no matter what.
Why did I...
...have to be born as Masa-niichan's niece?
"1 Week Later"
This is from Hisako.
Thanks.
Are you happy?
Yeah.
I'll be staying at Naoko's apartment today.
Is she doing well here in Tokyo?
She grew up chasing after your back.
So please take charge of her from here on, too.
Brother, wait. Don't put that kind of pressure on me.
Once you have kids, Masato... you'll understand.
You're busy, so I must be bothering you.
I wonder if Masato and Aya-san are doing well?
Have you heard anything?
Didn't hear anything.
Maybe I'm over-thinking things.
I don't know.
Still...
Huh?
I think Masa-niichan is feeling down, too.
He may just be busy with work.
Married couples go through all sorts of such periods.
I don't know how many times your mother and I...
...discussed breaking up with each other.
No way.
And then we'd get over it...
...because our relationship as a couple was solid as a rock.
There's nothing the rest of the world can do about that.
Someone joins forces with another and, before they know it, they can overcome such things.
"Professor Brown of the Pittsburgh University..."
"...is saying he would be fine taking you in as one of his surgeons."
"Morimoto Olive Farm"
No way!
You passed everything, Rai-Rai.
Eh? Incredible!
It didn't even look like you were studying though.
Because my head's different from yours.
Sorry about that.
I missed one in Culture.
This is bad.
I missed one in Physics.
I missed one in Psychology.
Let's do our best on the finals.
Yeah...
I sympathize for you.
Huh?
Come in.
- Excuse me. - What's up?
I think...
...I'll go to the University of Pittsburgh.
Please help me with that.
I see!
Why did I have to be born as Masa-niichan's niece?
Who do you believe; me or that girl?
Naoko has nothing to do with it; she's my niece
It's best not to be at Masa-niichan's side
You will definitely come back to me
Farewell, I won't be coming back here again
