[in Japanese] Yeah. I'm looking at the photo now...
I have no idea...
How bad is it?
Well, I wouldn't exactly describe it as "good news."
I don't know, and I didn't ask.
Just wait by your phone.
My food is getting cold.
I'm hanging up.

[TV newsreader speaking indistinctly in Japanese]
[woman] [in Japanese] Good morning.
[in Japanese] Good morning.
- Is there coffee? - In the pot.
Taki!
[old woman] She's still in bed. Lazy girl.
- [old man] Should I get her? - [old woman] How?
You can't walk that far.
This egg is hard.
He needs the yolk runny.
- [old man] She'll be late for school. - She'll be fine, Dad.
[woman] Taki! Breakfast!
[mobile phone vibrates]
I'm meeting Naho for lunch. Do you need me to pick something up?
It's my day off.
[man over phone] [in Japanese] Boss. Turn on the news.
Taki, don't make me ask again!
- [old man] Taki! - Taki!
She doesn't listen.
Because you spoil her.
[woman] She wasn't spoiled.
[old woman] Not around the oxygen!
You'll blow us all up!
I know spoiled when I see it.
[TV newsreader] The shooting which took place
at a Tokyo restaurant late last night
has threatened the fragile peace between Tokyo's Yakuza families.
The death toll is not yet known,
but it is thought that at least ten...
Christ.
[man on phone] Yeah. Cancel your plans.
I'm coming in now.
[man on phone] Get me a coffee?
Don't push your luck.
Will you get Taki out of her room?
I have to go to work.
You promised to look after your parents today.
There's been a shooting.
Weren't you listening?
I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you.
Tell your partner he owes me a Friday.
[man agrees]
[pop music playing indistinctly through speakers]
[man] I know you can hear people shouting for you.
[door closes]
[siren wailing]
I ate here once.
Terrible service.
What do we know?
Drive-by shooting. We think Fukuhara was the intended target.
You two have history, right?
[detective 1] Don't listen to gossip.
This is Goro Eda.
And there's his cousin.
[detective 1] That's Makoto Sakai.
Late-night Yakuza dinner party.
So where's their boss?
[man] He's gone to ground.
Chief Inspector. Fukuhara's missing?
Yeah.
[detective 2] Do you think he's still alive, sir?
We don't know.
Who would try and take him on like this?
We don't know that either,
but I want you all to push on the other Yakuza families.
You want us to start arresting Yakuza bosses?
[Chief Inspector] I want you to start asking them questions.
Politely.
What about this photo?
We're looking into it.
[camera shutter clicks]
[Chief Inspector] We've had peace for years.
I don't want a war now.
Any movement?
Nothing.
We could climb the wall.
We'll come back with a warrant.
[intercom rings]
It's the police, Fukuhara.
Are you in there?
Just checking if you're still alive.
I'd be hiding too, if I was him.
I don't think he's hiding.
What's he doing, then?
Biding his time.
[detective 2] Has he moved yet?
Say what you want,
but I'm not going to lose sleep over a bunch of dead gangsters.
[detective 1] You weren't around for the last conflict, were you?
[detective 2] No.
Detective Mori. This is Detective Ito.
Tell your boss we'd like a minute of his time.
Endo.
Sorry to bother you.
I always have time for the Tokyo Police Department.
There was a shooting last night.
Some of Fukuhara's men were killed.
[Endo] I heard about that.
Before or after it happened?
[mobile phone vibrating]
[silences phone]
You and Fukuhara have clashed before.
In the past.
You were top of the tree before him.
Don't tell us you don't miss it.
[Endo] Of course.
But then, no one's shooting at me in restaurants anymore.
So there's that.
Well, someone is trying to take Fukuhara down.
Do you believe in curses, Detective?
I do.
I believe that some men are not meant to walk this earth for long.
Maybe that restaurant was cursed.
Do you think he ever considered renting an office
that wasn't above a damn fish market?
This isn't Japan.
[Detective Ito] What is it?
[Detective Mori] The wrong kind of wall plug.
Where do they have that kind of plug?
I'm not a plug expert.
[mobile phone vibrates]
Who keeps calling you?
[Detective Mori] My wife.
Is she a plug expert?
Probably.
[Detective Mori] I'm home.
- I've been calling you. - It's been a busy day.
Taki is out of control.
Whatever she did, I'm sure we can...
She stabbed someone.
A boy at school.
She got him in the thigh with some nail scissors.
I should have thrown my phone in the river and not come home.
Little bastard was lucky not to lose his cock.
[Detective Mori] Dad...
He had his hands all over her, she said.
[old woman] That's no reason to stab someone!
The school has suspended her while they investigate.
[knocks on door]
[Detective Mori] So how was your day?
Let's not play around. If you're going to punish me, punish me.
[Detective Mori] Then tell me what happened.
Takashi has been asking me out for weeks.
I kept saying no.
He followed me into the bathroom and put his hand up my skirt.
You shouldn't have stabbed him.
[Taki] You'd prefer I got raped?
In my day...
If a boy tried to feel up a girl, she'd slap his face,
not try and castrate him.
Girls are different now.
Yes.
[Taki sighs]
They're going to expel me.
I'll talk to them.
[Taki] I want to be expelled.
Tokyo only has so many schools, Taki.
[exhales sharply]
Did you find out who shot those people last night?
I'm starting to think it might have been you.
[chuckles softly]
[doorbell ringing]
I'll go and see.
Good evening.
[Detective Mori] Fukuhara.
May we come in?
Of course.
Slippers?
[Detective Mori] Yes. Sorry...
Good evening.
This apartment is too small for all of you.
[Detective Mori] We manage.
Someone tried to kill me last night.
I know.
It was Shin Endo.
We went to see him today.
And he didn't confess?
That was mean-spirited of him.
[Detective Mori] Why would he attack you?
[Fukuhara] His name is Saburo.
He was an executive at a Japanese export company in London.
He was Shin Endo's nephew.
The sword that was used to murder him belongs to me.
That photo was sent to all the Yakuza families in the city.
Everyone believes I had his nephew killed.
And...
did you?
I haven't seen my family sword in over a year.
Not since your little brother took it.
My brother...
Yuto is dead.
And yet...
I saw the car being dragged out of the sea.
Saw the bullet holes. You told me...
[Fukuhara] I told you before
that he stopped working for me because he was a liability.
He took my car and my sword, and he disappeared.
We never saw a body, but we both assumed he was dead.
It's not possible.
[Fukuhara] Last week, Yuto was dead, and Saburo was alive.
Now... perhaps the other way around.
Someone threw a stone in a pond a long way away...
and we're only just feeling the ripples.
Nothing is impossible...
Detective.
[knocking on door]
[door opens]
[Fukuhara] Well, well,
Chief Inspector Hayashi has come to see us.
Good evening, Chief Inspector.
We were just talking...
about Detective Mori's brother.
[Detective Mori] This is insane.
Even if Yuto was somehow still alive,
why would he be in London committing this murder?
If the only possible outcome of an action is chaos,
then we must assume that was the intention.
Sir?
We have to explore the possibility that it's true.
[Fukuhara] You need to find your brother and bring him back here.
Before this damn city starts to eat itself.
[Chief Inspector] There's a crime management course
run by a university in London.
There's an exchange program.
I've arranged for you to take a place without attracting suspicion.
You fly out tomorrow.
This isn't an official investigation.
The British police can't know.
So we keep this to ourselves.
Why send me?
Why not someone else?
If we send anyone else after him, they're likely to come back dead.
That's not who my brother is.
Perhaps...
you don't know him as well as you think.
Am I working for you or him?
You're working for Tokyo.
It's time to do your job, Detective.
Your family started this mess.
Your family will have to pay for it,
one way or another.
Someone will meet you at the airport.
You brother's no use to us in a British jail.
So work fast.
It should have been me that told you that your brother might still be alive.
[sighs] No one likes giving bad news, sir.
[door opens and closes]
[bedroom door opens]
[rain falling]
[in Japanese] You got a cigarette?
Something bad's happened.
What did you do?
There's an underground bookmakers in Edogawa,
they just scored big on the horses.
Maybe 20 million yen in a safe.
What did you do?
Me and Sora,
- we just thought that if we... - What did you do, Yuto?
I don't know! There was a guy, he wasn't supposed to be there.
He came out of nowhere and shot Sora.
[inhales deeply]
I shot him.
Is he dead?
[Yuto] I don't know.
Where's the gun?
Were there security cameras?
Did anyone see you leave?
I don't think so.
[sobs] I'm sorry.
I fucked up.
Stop it. You're drawing attention to yourself.
[sobs]
Help me, Kenzo.
Leave it to me.
I'll put your travel sickness tablets in your hand luggage.
Take them when you get to the airport.
Will you be okay without me?
Of course I will.
Dad's health is getting worse.
Mum doesn't get around like she used to.
- I know it's... - I can handle it.
[Detective Mori sighs]
What don't I know, Kenzo?
Nothing.
Your brother was a criminal...
and they've never let you forget it.
Perhaps now is your chance to fix that.
[elevator whirring]
I wish I was going with you.
They need you here.
Though I would like the company.
[elevator door opens]
If Uncle Yuto is alive, will you tell him...
I didn't forget about him?
Will you tell him to come home?
Goodbye, little monkey.
[brakes squeak]

[in English] Ladies and gentlemen, we have now arrived in London Heathrow.
Local time is 9:57 p.m.

[in Japanese] Toshio...
No one is here to meet me.
Call me back.
[man over speaker] [in English] ...and these triumphs of British culture,
these spectacular structures, vast country houses...
[siren wailing]
[door closes]
[telephone ringing]
[receptionist] SVU Halls of Residence.
Yes, please hold. Put you through.
[woman clears throat]
Kenzo?
Yes.
I'm so sorry to wake you. I...
Oh, yeah.
Hi.
I'm Sarah.
I'm going to be taking the crime scene management course.
Well, more accurately, I'm teaching it.
I just thought I'd come down, and...
Have you been sleeping here all night?
Yes.
I'm so sorry.
It's my first day, as well.
For all I know, they always make
the mature students sleep in the reception.
[receptionist] Good morning. SVU Halls of Residence.
Probably not, though.
Right.
This is yours.
It's a welcome pack. It's got a timetable and a map...
some stickers, for some reason.
Thank you.
You must be jetlagged.
A cup of coffee and a McMuffin usually does the trick.
Or there's always lying in the fetal position and weeping.
Yeah, no. Ignore that.
I'll see you in class.
Welcome to London.
Thank you.
[door unlocking]
[inaudible]
[mobile phone vibrating]
[in Japanese] Mr. Mori!
Eiji Watari, pleased to meet you.
I'm sorry I couldn't meet you at the airport last night.
- It's fine. - There was a misunderstanding.
- So where do you want to start? - [Detective Mori] The crime scene.
This is Saburo's place.
Do you have the entry code?
[Eiji] No.
[mobile phone ringing]
Boss.
How was the flight?
Did the guy meet you at the airport?
[Detective Mori] He got waylaid.
I want to get into Saburo's apartment. It's an entry code combination.
Why start there?
The police will have stripped the place.
[Detective Mori] I'm doing things my way.
I've got the names of some Japanese social clubs and bars in London, why don't you...
I want to see the crime scene.
[Detective Ito] Fine. I'll look into it.
You know they sent a British detective here on the exchange program with you?
His name is "Roy."
[in English] Hey. [chuckles]
[in Japanese] He looks like a fucking sex tourist.
Thanks.
[telephone ringing]
Detective Weitzmann.
[woman] Good afternoon. I'm Yasmin Rose from the Probation Services.
Is now a good time to talk?
Yes.
[Rose] It's in regards to Ian Summers.
I'm sure you're aware, he recently became eligible for parole.
He's been released?
Yes.
Where's he staying?
[Rose] I can't disclose that information, I'm afraid. Um...
Did you know?
Know what?
[man] Lunch Club!
That wonky sandwich place.
£6.50 for a baguette.
Beth?
Kev?
Come on, Heather.
[indistinct chatter]
[in Japanese] I'm sure it'll go better tomorrow.
[Detective Mori] I have no leads, no evidence.
No contacts.
Not even police powers.
[Eiji] You must be good at your job, though.
I mean, that's why they sent you, right? Because you're the best?
Do you think you'll find the guy who did it?
My wife told me to ask you to come to dinner with us this evening.
[in English] Okay.
[Eiji] [in English] Okay.
[laptop dings]
[man] What? Fuck off.
No, listen to me.
You've got to tell him that if he wants you,
he's got to start acting like a man and not behaving like a little bitch.
'Cause you know what a little bitch gets?
[sniffs] No, neither do I.
Because I don't associate with them, and neither should you.
- Can I get a gin and tonic? - [bartender] Your boyfriend's here.
- I don't have one of those. - [man] Rodney.
Oh, God.
Tiff, um, I don't have the energy right now.
I deserve an explanation.
[Rodney] An explanation is a privilege, not a right.
I just want to know why. What did I do?
Can I call you back? Sorry, I'm in the middle of a Greek play.
Do we not have a warning system in place for this kind of situation?
No.
Right. Well, let's talk about that, okay?
Just tell me what changed.
Um, my mood? My mood changed.
- I don't understand. - I don't need you to.
[Tiff] Michael came round looking for you.
[Rodney] You don't need to say anything to Michael or even go near him.
I want to help you.
- I can't do that if you won't let me in. - I ordered a gin and tonic
- in what feels like several lifetimes ago. - [Tiff] Rodney.
Listen to me. It's done, okay?
I let you in, and now I'm letting you out.
I don't want to be out.
- I don't know what to do on my own. - Oh, God, look.
Tears aren't gonna work with me, honey. They never have.
You're a piece of shit. You know that? You're a fucking sociopath.
- Tiff? Tiff! - Okay, thank you.
[Rodney] Don't look at me like that.
Like what?
Like you agree with him.
[in Japanese] Cheers.
You married?
Know what the secret to a long marriage is?
Don't get divorced.
Just kidding.
[in English] I'm with them.
[in Japanese] I'm so pleased you could come, Detective.
Eiji was so excited to be able to help you.
What do you think of this place? It's Suzume's favorite.
We came here in our first week in London.
You can see Leicester Square right there.
Is there somewhere I can play pachinko here?
They don't have it in London.
Thank God.
[Suzume] No, there is a place.
What's the club called...
in town?
It has pachinko machines.
You can't win anything on them, but you can play them.
- I've never been. - Well, that doesn't mean it doesn't exist!
That's it. Momo Club!
- Momo Club? - [Eiji] She means Momo Lounge.
It's over in Fitzrovia.
Can we go there?
You can't just walk in. You have to be a member or friends with a member.
And you're not members?
[laughs] I wish!
I can ask around, see if anyone I know can get us in.
Hmm.
- Dan? - Sarah?
[Sarah] Oh...
Should I call you "London_Dan_35"?
If you like. [chuckles]
Well, I insist you call me "Sarah Blues and Twos."
Right, got it.
I mean, not really. You can just...
"Sarah..."
is fine.
Have you been waiting long?
No, I was five minutes early, and you're ten minutes late.
- So... - [sighs]
I'm so sorry. Traffic, a f...
A blinking nightmare.
[Sarah] Yeah, I walked,
but it seemed really busy.
Well, it's great to finally meet you.
You too.
This place seems nice.
I've never been.
My friend said it was nice.
[Dan grunting]
[in Japanese] The babysitter's calling.
I think Shoko's crying again...
Excuse me.
- It was nice to meet you. - Yes, you too.
The baby doesn't sleep. This counts as a big night out for us!
I'll see what I can do about Momo Club. It might take a couple of days.
- Thanks. - Thank you.
[sighs]
[in English] Oh, hello again.
[in English] You speak good Japanese.
[in Japanese] My father was from Kyoto.
[in English] And your mother?
[in Japanese] My mother...
[in English] White girl from Peckham, would you believe?
[in English] Would you like to earn some money?
I'm 200 for the night.
[in Japanese] Or I'll suck your cock for 50, but either way...
you have to...
you have to wear, um...
[in English] What's the word for "condom"?
[in Japanese] "Condom."
[in English] Right, yes. One of those.
Unless you've got a grand, in which case, fine.
But you're pulling out.
[in Japanese] And you can cum all over the place.
[in English] It's a customer guarantee.
[in Japanese] You're a rent boy.
[in Japanese] Yes. Correct.
[in English] I need to go to the Momo Lounge.
It's a Japanese bar, but members-only.
Right.
But you seem like the sort of man who can get me in.
That's all I want. I can pay.
What do you do?
Policeman.
Fucking knew it.
[sighs]
Okay, how about you keep your money and do me a favor instead?
What?
There's a guy who has been bothering me.
Someone needs to go and talk to him.
The boy earlier?
No. Nothing like the boy earlier.
Okay, if that's what you need.
Plus a hundred, 'cause I'm nice.
[sighs]
Agreed.
- Let's go. - No can do.
Got clients waiting.
[in Japanese] I can take you tomorrow...
Mr. Policeman.
[Detective Mori] Tomorrow, then.
No later.
Oh.
[in Japanese] Thank you.
See you tomorrow.
[in English] Night, Alex.
Fuck you.
That was great.
Thank you.
[sighs]
It's a work night.
Oh, right.
Yeah, of course.
Crime doesn't sleep, right?
[sighs]
[door closes]
[exhales sharply]
[mobile phone vibrates]
[sighs]
Good morning, everyone. I'm Detective Weitzmann.
On this course, I'm going to be covering how modern techniques
used by forensic specialists can be applied to the solving
and even the prevention of crime.
Hello.
How are you finding everything?
Good, thank you.
Explored the city yet?
[Detective Mori] A little.
Easy to get lost, isn't it?
Your first class was very interesting.
Was there a single thing I said that you didn't know already?
I didn't know your last name was Weitzmann.
[chuckles]
Well...
Come to the next one, I'll tell you my middle name.
[Rodney] Ready for some fun?
We are not here to have fun.
'Course not.
Here you go.
- Thanks. - So...
I'm going to get you in, we can have some drinks,
make some beautiful memories,
do whatever it is you're so desperate to do,
and then you can come and help me with my thing, okay?
[Detective Mori] You get the other half when we're inside.
Okey-dokey, Supercop.
That's weed, by the way.
[coughs]
[club music playing]
[Detective Mori] Asahi, please.
[Rodney] And a vodka, club soda.
So, what are we investigating?
Someone preying on beautiful, young, mixed-race boys?
[whispers] Just tell me how worried I need to be.
[quietly] I'm looking for someone.
Criminal?
Ghost.
Oh, spooky.
Thank you.
[in Japanese] Does a man called Yuto Mori come in here?
[in Japanese] No.
What about Saburo Endo?
Hisateru, didn't you know a guy called Saburo?
[in Japanese] That's right.
[Detective Mori] You know he was murdered?
It doesn't surprise me.
[Detective Mori] Why?
He was an asshole.
[Detective Mori] There's a rumor that it was the Yakuza.
[bartender] There are no Yakuza in London.
No.
There's one.
He was a hitman for a major crime family.
But he got thrown out.
Left Japan in disgrace.
Washed up here.
Became an alcoholic, almost drank himself to death.
[door opens]
[Hisateru] Then one night, he was in a bar alone...
when a man burst in.
The man was going to be killed.
So the Yakuza evened the odds.
[sword slices]
[Hisateru] He didn't know it,
but he'd saved the life
of one of the most feared gangsters in London.
And the gangster didn't know it,
but he'd just hired the most deadly assassin in Japan.
Have you ever met that Yakuza?
You don't see him.
And you better hope he never learns your name.
[bartender] [in English] He's drunk.
[Hisateru laughs]
[in English] Are you sure...
you've never seen this man?
[Hisateru chuckles]
I don't know, sorry.
We get all sorts in here.
[Detective Mori] I thought it was a private member's club.
No, open to anyone.
Okay, so I never said it was a private member's club.
You just offered me £100 to get you in. That's not on me.
That's your bad information.
[in Japanese] Toshio. Call me back when you get this.
[in English] Hey! Hey, I still need your help with my thing.
[in English] You lied to me.
Yeah, but I'm not lying to you now. This guy really is a fucking nutcase.
Find someone else to help you.
Please!
I'm...
That's not very fucking Japanese of you, is it?
Fuck!
[Detective Ito] [in Japanese] Hey, sorry.
The Chief said Eiji was given the code two days ago.
He didn't give it to you?
[in Japanese] Thank you.
Detective Mori!
[baby crying]
I need you to drive me somewhere.
Just up here, on the right.
[mobile phone vibrates]
[Eiji] It's Suzume.
The baby won't sleep again.
I'm telling you, I don't know how much more I can take...
[grunts] Hey...
Who are you working for?
[pants and groans]
You've been lying to me.
I'm sorry!
Who are you working for?
I don't know who it is.
They just told me to slow you down.
[whimpers]
Did it come from Tokyo or London?
[yells]
Tell me.
Abbot.
Mr. Abbot.
Who's Abbot?
I don't know! [cries]
I never met him.
He sent someone to my house.
[grunts]
Give me the entry code.
[typing]
When my daughter couldn't sleep,
we played her whale song.
Or the sound of rain.
[club music playing]
[gasps]
[mobile phone vibrating]
[Mrs. Mori] [on phone] Why haven't you called?
I'm sorry.
I've been busy.
[Mrs. Mori] How's the investigation?
It's early days.
Is everyone okay over there?
Taki was expelled.
She won't talk to me.
Your parents won't talk to me.
Where is Taki?
- Is she there? - [Mrs. Mori] No.
She's gone out.
I don't know where.
[exhales softly]
I'll try calling her.
You should have helped her.
[sighs deeply]
Shit.
I was just trying to scare him.
[winces]
There's water in the fridge.
[refrigerator door opens]
You're a cop.
I recognize you.
Are you here to arrest me?
My boss...
he can handle all this.
[Detective Mori] What about the kid who shot you?
The one that ran away.
[man] This doesn't have to escalate.
We can forget all about it.
[footsteps receding]
[footsteps approaching]
[door opens]
[footsteps approaching]
[Yuto] [in Japanese] What happened?
Brother...
What happened?
Did you see the guy?
Yes.
Was he dead?
Yes.
He was dead.
Shit.
Oh, this is bad.
What shall I...?
Shit, I killed someone.
It's finished.
There's no trace of you there.
It'll look like Sora was the shooter.
So it's over. Do you hear me?
You're not a gangster.
You're a dumb fucking kid who doesn't know what he's doing.
I need to hear it.
You're not a gangster.
Say it.
I...
I'm not a gangster.
I'm done.
[sobbing]
