1
00:00:14,666 --> 00:00:18,583
Look at this welcome board!
Their caricature is perfect!

2
00:00:18,666 --> 00:00:20,458
You're right! It's funny.

3
00:00:20,958 --> 00:00:23,666
I still can't believe those two
are tying the knot.

4
00:00:23,750 --> 00:00:26,916
Yeah. It's a bizarre match, isn't it?

5
00:00:27,791 --> 00:00:29,958
Well, then, shall we finish checking in?

6
00:00:30,041 --> 00:00:31,000
OK.

7
00:00:35,875 --> 00:00:38,000
My congratulations to the bride and groom.

8
00:00:38,250 --> 00:00:39,291
Thank you very much.

9
00:00:41,625 --> 00:00:43,083
CONGRATULATIONS

10
00:00:51,916 --> 00:00:54,208
How do you know the happy couple?

11
00:00:54,291 --> 00:00:57,625
I'm the bride's friend...

12
00:00:58,708 --> 00:01:01,791
The expected amount
for a wedding gift is 30,000 yen!

13
00:01:02,291 --> 00:01:06,041
My blood and tears
have taken form as 30,000 yen!

14
00:01:07,041 --> 00:01:09,625
Honestly, I don't want to give it away.

15
00:01:11,125 --> 00:01:12,666
I don't want to give it away!

16
00:01:13,750 --> 00:01:16,458
Get your dirty paws off my money!

17
00:01:16,541 --> 00:01:17,625
RAGE

18
00:01:58,666 --> 00:02:01,375
Isn't 30,000 yen a bit much
for a wedding gift?

19
00:02:01,875 --> 00:02:04,958
I'll have to tighten
my food budget this month.

20
00:02:05,958 --> 00:02:10,750
It's tough at our age.
I just give a flat 20,000 regardless.

21
00:02:10,833 --> 00:02:13,458
Maybe I should do that, too.

22
00:02:14,041 --> 00:02:15,041
That's no good!

23
00:02:15,125 --> 00:02:17,500
Two is an even number
that's easy to split!

24
00:02:17,583 --> 00:02:21,833
It is said that even though a couple
have just got hitched, they will split up!

25
00:02:21,916 --> 00:02:24,166
So the old wives' tale goes...

26
00:02:24,375 --> 00:02:27,041
Even if you pay 30,000,
some couples separate anyway.

27
00:02:27,125 --> 00:02:30,958
But ceremonies cost
a lot of money and work, you know!

28
00:02:31,041 --> 00:02:33,750
That's what the bridal industry
wants you to think.

29
00:02:36,791 --> 00:02:39,791
Another day in the accounting department
has begun.

30
00:02:40,250 --> 00:02:41,250
As of now,

31
00:02:42,125 --> 00:02:44,291
I've got a new name for you.

32
00:02:44,833 --> 00:02:46,541
ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT

33
00:02:46,875 --> 00:02:51,625
Short-timer!

34
00:02:55,916 --> 00:02:58,250
You called, Director Ton?

35
00:03:00,791 --> 00:03:03,166
Sort out these expense forms
by this afternoon.

36
00:03:03,541 --> 00:03:04,541
Then these!

37
00:03:04,625 --> 00:03:05,583
And these!

38
00:03:05,666 --> 00:03:07,125
And input these!

39
00:03:07,458 --> 00:03:09,041
Yes. As you wish.

40
00:03:10,041 --> 00:03:12,083
Miss Retsuko?

41
00:03:12,166 --> 00:03:13,583
Yes, ma'am?

42
00:03:15,333 --> 00:03:18,083
What a splendid change in attitude!

43
00:03:18,166 --> 00:03:21,666
You're like a different person
to the one who talked back to me.

44
00:03:22,791 --> 00:03:23,916
Shake!

45
00:03:25,791 --> 00:03:27,125
House!

46
00:03:29,750 --> 00:03:30,958
Good girl!

47
00:03:31,041 --> 00:03:34,250
That's what happens
when you turn the screws a little.

48
00:03:34,333 --> 00:03:38,541
Look! Look at that face.
It's brimming with delight for work.

49
00:03:39,625 --> 00:03:41,750
It's worth pushing her to work harder.

50
00:03:44,083 --> 00:03:44,916
Retsuko.

51
00:03:45,875 --> 00:03:48,875
What happened when Director Ton
called you out?

52
00:03:49,708 --> 00:03:51,791
Private chats during work are prohibited.

53
00:03:54,125 --> 00:03:55,125
This is bad.

54
00:03:57,458 --> 00:04:00,500
WATER

55
00:04:06,583 --> 00:04:08,208
I wanna go home!

56
00:04:08,291 --> 00:04:09,875
Oh, she's snapped out of it.

57
00:04:09,958 --> 00:04:12,041
She's like a shriveled-up mushroom.

58
00:04:12,541 --> 00:04:14,250
What's up with you?

59
00:04:14,333 --> 00:04:16,666
You've gone past serious
to acting like a robot.

60
00:04:17,708 --> 00:04:20,750
Hey, Short-timer!
Stick this durian up your nose!

61
00:04:20,833 --> 00:04:22,083
Certainly, sir.

62
00:04:23,166 --> 00:04:25,041
Well... I guess...

63
00:04:25,125 --> 00:04:26,541
A lot has happened.

64
00:04:27,416 --> 00:04:31,000
What happened to the Retsuko
that let Miss Tsubone have it last week?

65
00:04:40,833 --> 00:04:41,666
Huh?

66
00:04:42,625 --> 00:04:43,791
Where are you going?

67
00:04:45,208 --> 00:04:46,541
Somewhere to calm down.

68
00:04:52,250 --> 00:04:54,166
ARCHIVE ROOM

69
00:04:55,916 --> 00:04:57,250
A girl with dreams,

70
00:04:57,958 --> 00:05:00,791
reduced to eating bread crusts
dipped in mayo...

71
00:05:05,875 --> 00:05:09,583
I can't let Fenneko or Haida
see me like this.

72
00:05:18,166 --> 00:05:20,375
It's quite relaxing here.

73
00:05:28,916 --> 00:05:29,750
Hello?

74
00:05:29,833 --> 00:05:31,666
I can't believe those guys!

75
00:05:31,750 --> 00:05:34,750
I'm devastated!
Not that I didn't see it coming!

76
00:05:34,833 --> 00:05:36,458
Wait, what are you talking about?

77
00:05:36,541 --> 00:05:39,958
I'm sorry for calling like this!
I'm really worked up right now!

78
00:05:40,041 --> 00:05:41,791
I just don't get it!

79
00:05:41,875 --> 00:05:43,541
Calm down.

80
00:05:44,125 --> 00:05:45,541
What happened?

81
00:05:45,625 --> 00:05:47,000
They got divorced!

82
00:05:47,250 --> 00:05:48,291
Divorced?

83
00:05:50,041 --> 00:05:52,166
Why? They only just got married!

84
00:05:52,250 --> 00:05:54,333
I heard they had a huge fight
at the airport!

85
00:05:54,416 --> 00:05:56,583
They didn't even make it
to their honeymoon!

86
00:05:56,666 --> 00:05:58,833
I knew love wouldn't be enough
for those two!

87
00:05:58,916 --> 00:06:01,416
They're from different worlds!

88
00:06:01,875 --> 00:06:03,875
They were an odd couple...

89
00:06:05,791 --> 00:06:06,833
But wait... 30,000!

90
00:06:06,916 --> 00:06:07,833
Yes! 30,000!

91
00:06:07,916 --> 00:06:09,666
-30,000!
- 30,000!

92
00:06:10,041 --> 00:06:11,541
Why didn't I give 20,000 yen?

93
00:06:11,625 --> 00:06:14,291
For their marriage?
It wasn't even worth 200 yen!

94
00:06:14,375 --> 00:06:16,875
I just had to share my sadness
with someone!

95
00:06:16,958 --> 00:06:19,000
Oh, I'm calling Inoko next, so bye.

96
00:06:26,125 --> 00:06:27,083
Huh?

97
00:06:27,666 --> 00:06:29,458
Oh, Mr. Haida.

98
00:06:29,958 --> 00:06:31,583
Have you seen Miss Retsuko?

99
00:06:32,166 --> 00:06:34,333
Oh... No...

100
00:06:35,208 --> 00:06:36,625
I haven't seen her...

101
00:06:38,250 --> 00:06:41,041
I was going to make her
open this jar.

102
00:06:41,375 --> 00:06:44,166
I can't... open it at all!

103
00:06:45,166 --> 00:06:46,500
Shall I open it?

104
00:06:46,833 --> 00:06:47,833
That's OK!

105
00:06:48,541 --> 00:06:51,208
Because I'm going
to make that girl open it.

106
00:06:57,500 --> 00:06:59,958
I wonder if Retsuko ate a proper lunch.

107
00:07:04,666 --> 00:07:05,500
What?

108
00:07:06,458 --> 00:07:07,833
You're worried about her.

109
00:07:08,333 --> 00:07:10,458
Hey, wait a minute.

110
00:07:10,541 --> 00:07:13,000
You're wrong. It doesn't mean that!

111
00:07:13,625 --> 00:07:17,666
Enduring power harassment
from superiors every day...

112
00:07:18,166 --> 00:07:20,375
Having been chased into a corner,

113
00:07:20,458 --> 00:07:22,000
she heads for the roof...

114
00:07:22,416 --> 00:07:24,333
Wait! Hey!

115
00:07:24,416 --> 00:07:26,916
Don't be stupid! You can't just say that!

116
00:07:27,208 --> 00:07:28,625
Go look for her, then.

117
00:07:30,166 --> 00:07:31,083
Yeah...

118
00:07:31,750 --> 00:07:33,166
ARCHIVE ROOM

119
00:07:36,875 --> 00:07:38,166
Divorce?

120
00:07:39,166 --> 00:07:43,083
For whom did I tighten my food budget?

121
00:07:45,708 --> 00:07:47,833
My 30,000 yen, all wasted.

122
00:07:49,750 --> 00:07:50,666
No...

123
00:07:50,750 --> 00:07:52,958
When my time comes to get married...

124
00:07:53,958 --> 00:07:57,791
I'll have them both attend the ceremony.
I'll get 30,000 yen from each of them.

125
00:07:58,083 --> 00:08:01,375
I'll double my money to 60,000!

126
00:08:06,875 --> 00:08:08,125
Marriage?

127
00:08:10,791 --> 00:08:11,791
Marriage...

128
00:08:12,166 --> 00:08:13,416
A family...

129
00:08:13,916 --> 00:08:15,250
Quitting work...

130
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,958
A full-time house wife?

131
00:08:31,208 --> 00:08:37,125
Matrimonial freedom!

132
00:08:48,916 --> 00:08:53,416
Matrimonial freedom!

133

ARCHIVE ROOM

134
00:09:01,541 --> 00:09:02,583
I forgot.

135
00:09:03,125 --> 00:09:05,833
I could always get married
and quit the company!

136
00:09:06,083 --> 00:09:07,750
What I need

137
00:09:08,083 --> 00:09:10,625
is a boyfriend that I can then marry!

138
00:09:11,875 --> 00:09:12,708
Retsuko,

139
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,833
what were you doing?

140
00:09:15,416 --> 00:09:16,458
What do you mean?

141
00:09:16,875 --> 00:09:18,625
I was just eating lunch.

142
00:09:20,833 --> 00:09:25,583
I was really worried!
Fenneko went to a morbid place...

143
00:09:27,541 --> 00:09:28,833
Hey, Haida...

144
00:09:29,583 --> 00:09:33,458
would you want your wife to work,
or would you want her to stay at home?

145
00:09:33,958 --> 00:09:34,791
Huh?

146
00:09:35,250 --> 00:09:37,875
That's quite a question...

147
00:09:40,458 --> 00:09:44,250
Let's see...
I guess I'd want her to have a job.

148
00:09:44,791 --> 00:09:47,500
My salary's not the biggest, you see.

149
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,375
Rather than having her at home all day,

150
00:09:50,458 --> 00:09:53,541
if she continued working,
we'd be a good influence on...

151
00:09:54,833 --> 00:09:55,833
Huh?

152
00:09:57,458 --> 00:09:58,375
Retsuko?

153
00:09:59,875 --> 00:10:01,250
I see, I see.

154
00:10:01,333 --> 00:10:04,250
In other words,
if I got a partner with a good salary,

155
00:10:04,333 --> 00:10:07,583
I could probably become
a full-time house wife!

156
00:10:09,166 --> 00:10:10,833
My life...

157
00:10:11,541 --> 00:10:13,125
is not over yet!

158
00:10:28,208 --> 00:10:29,750
GET A DESIRABLE BODY!

159
00:10:29,833 --> 00:10:31,541
"Get a desirable body

160
00:10:31,916 --> 00:10:33,083
and reel them in."

161
00:10:34,208 --> 00:10:39,250
What? But I think you're cute enough
just the way you are.

162
00:10:40,375 --> 00:10:44,000
I just thought it would be nice
to get a little bit slimmer.

163
00:10:44,375 --> 00:10:46,875
Oh, so you're on the prowl!

164
00:10:47,958 --> 00:10:49,375
Oh, well, you know...

165
00:10:50,666 --> 00:10:52,958
I mean, I just want to be pretty
in a regular way.

166
00:10:53,041 --> 00:10:56,083
Oh! You mean you want to be "regular hot"!

167
00:10:57,083 --> 00:10:57,958
Oh...

168
00:10:58,500 --> 00:11:00,333
Well, just in an average way.

169
00:11:00,416 --> 00:11:03,250
But, that slight chubbiness of yours

170
00:11:03,333 --> 00:11:05,458
is what puts people at ease,

171
00:11:05,541 --> 00:11:08,291
like those squishy, baby-like arms!

172
00:11:08,375 --> 00:11:11,875
So you could get a boyfriend if you tried!

173
00:11:12,416 --> 00:11:15,500
That... obviously means "lose weight",
doesn't it?

174
00:11:22,125 --> 00:11:23,625
I don't feel like it today...

175
00:11:26,458 --> 00:11:27,916
Excuse me!

176
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:30,958
Does this floor

177
00:11:31,416 --> 00:11:33,541
have a body-building class, too?

178
00:11:35,666 --> 00:11:36,958
Protein?

179
00:11:37,041 --> 00:11:38,041
What?

180
00:11:38,541 --> 00:11:39,583
Protein?

181
00:11:40,333 --> 00:11:43,458
I... I was only interested
in the yoga class.

182
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,375
...tein...

183
00:11:45,958 --> 00:11:47,916
Protein!

184
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,375
Oh, I'm sorry!
Bodybuilding is not my thing!

185
00:11:51,458 --> 00:11:55,333
I was just wondering if losing some weight
would make me desirable, that's all!

186
00:11:58,791 --> 00:12:00,291
Teacher,  namaste !

187
00:12:00,375 --> 00:12:01,791
Namaste !

188
00:12:02,541 --> 00:12:04,166
Protein!

189
00:12:04,250 --> 00:12:06,166
This guy teaches yoga?

190
00:12:18,125 --> 00:12:18,958
Protein!

191
00:12:19,041 --> 00:12:21,541
I'm guessing that means "sign here."

192
00:12:36,166 --> 00:12:37,541
Hey, Retsuko.

193
00:12:37,625 --> 00:12:39,375
I was talking to Fenneko a while ago.

194
00:12:40,166 --> 00:12:41,708
Are you free tonight?

195
00:12:41,791 --> 00:12:43,916
How about the three of us go for drinks?

196
00:12:44,291 --> 00:12:45,166
Sorry!

197
00:12:45,250 --> 00:12:46,375
I have plans!

198
00:12:52,166 --> 00:12:53,375
It's not funny!

199
00:12:55,458 --> 00:12:58,791
-Protein! Protein!
-OK, that's the pigeon pose!

200
00:12:58,875 --> 00:13:01,000
If you're not used to it yet,
don't force it.

201
00:13:07,083 --> 00:13:09,500
Why are those two here?

202
00:13:11,791 --> 00:13:14,291
Maybe they haven't noticed me...

203
00:13:16,750 --> 00:13:17,875
Good work today!

204
00:13:17,958 --> 00:13:19,333
I'm heading out now.

205
00:13:21,958 --> 00:13:24,833
They're really looking...
They definitely noticed.

206
00:13:25,791 --> 00:13:28,666
I completely missed my chance to say hi.

207
00:13:28,750 --> 00:13:29,916
This is awkward.

208
00:13:30,250 --> 00:13:33,416
But since I'm less important,
I have to greet them first.

209
00:13:34,750 --> 00:13:35,958
Alright!

210
00:13:38,083 --> 00:13:39,166
She's already here!

211
00:13:45,416 --> 00:13:46,250
-Um...
-Um...

212
00:13:46,333 --> 00:13:48,500
We see each other at work a lot, don't we?

213
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,000
Oh...

214
00:13:50,083 --> 00:13:51,458
-Oh...
-Oh, dear...

215
00:13:52,958 --> 00:13:53,791
-Um...
-Um...

216
00:13:53,875 --> 00:13:55,541
I'm Retsuko, from Accounting.

217
00:14:02,791 --> 00:14:04,375
I'm Washimi, from Secretarial.

218
00:14:04,791 --> 00:14:06,541
She's Gori, from Marketing.

219
00:14:06,625 --> 00:14:08,541
You're the girl we see a lot at work.

220
00:14:08,875 --> 00:14:09,958
It's nice to see you.

221
00:14:12,041 --> 00:14:13,416
It's nice to see you!

222
00:14:22,833 --> 00:14:25,208
Oh, Retsuko? Did you hear?

223
00:14:25,666 --> 00:14:26,666
What?

224
00:14:26,750 --> 00:14:30,375
Those two got back together
and are super in love now!

225
00:14:30,958 --> 00:14:32,750
Huh? That's crazy.

226
00:14:33,916 --> 00:14:37,375
I guess it was worth it
to give them 30,000 yen after all.

227
00:14:38,208 --> 00:14:39,625
You could be right!

228
00:14:41,041 --> 00:14:43,041
