00:00:12,375 --> 00:00:15,958
The drinking party for Accounting
last night saw sparks fly.

2
00:00:16,041 --> 00:00:18,916
Now, another day begins at the office.

3
00:00:21,666 --> 00:00:23,708
I am completely hungover.

4
00:00:24,333 --> 00:00:28,083
I don't even remember
how the party ended.

5
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,041
Wait... Didn't Retsuko...

6
00:00:40,666 --> 00:00:43,583
I'm pretty sure Retsuko
sang some sort of...

7
00:00:46,666 --> 00:00:51,250
Luckily, my inebriated co-workers
don't seem to clearly remember last night.

8
00:00:51,916 --> 00:00:53,458
The only problem left...

9
00:00:59,750 --> 00:01:01,583
Good morning.

10
00:01:03,125 --> 00:01:07,625
I'm terribly sorry about last night!

11
00:01:08,166 --> 00:01:12,625
Drunkenness is not an excuse
for being as rude as I was!

12
00:01:15,708 --> 00:01:16,708
I don't remember...

13
00:01:19,916 --> 00:01:22,166
I drank way too much last night.

14
00:01:26,375 --> 00:01:27,458
RAGE

15
00:02:05,958 --> 00:02:08,000
KARAOKE

16
00:02:08,375 --> 00:02:12,333
So you managed to retain your reputation
as a responsible good girl?

17
00:02:12,416 --> 00:02:15,791
-It seems so.
-Well, that's boring.

18
00:02:15,875 --> 00:02:17,875
Oh, please! I much prefer it this way.

19
00:02:21,416 --> 00:02:22,875
By the way,

20
00:02:23,708 --> 00:02:27,125
why is Director Gori frozen like that?

21
00:02:28,166 --> 00:02:30,041
She's fine, don't worry.

22
00:02:30,541 --> 00:02:31,375
But...

23
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Let's not open that can of worms!

24
00:02:34,083 --> 00:02:36,166
But she has turned into a statue!

25
00:02:36,791 --> 00:02:38,000
Did something happen?

26
00:02:40,083 --> 00:02:41,750
Heartbreak.

27
00:02:45,541 --> 00:02:48,125
But I still love him!

28
00:02:51,250 --> 00:02:54,375
I know I was always
using my job as an excuse!

29
00:02:54,458 --> 00:02:58,500
I also put up with a lot from him,
but I was so forgiving!

30
00:02:59,333 --> 00:03:01,333
Maybe that is where I went wrong?

31
00:03:01,416 --> 00:03:04,666
Did I make him think
I would forgive anything?

32
00:03:04,750 --> 00:03:08,583
I should have known that
we wouldn't understand each other.

33
00:03:08,666 --> 00:03:11,791
We live in two different worlds,
after all!

34
00:03:12,500 --> 00:03:15,875
-Are you listening, Retsuko?
-Why did you follow me home?

35
00:03:15,958 --> 00:03:18,666
I don't want to sleep on my own tonight.

36
00:03:18,750 --> 00:03:21,083
Just go back to your place already!

37
00:03:21,708 --> 00:03:25,333
You don't mind, do you? Besides,
I've always wanted to check out your room.

38
00:03:26,291 --> 00:03:29,458
-I'm borrowing this T-shirt.
-No!

39
00:03:32,166 --> 00:03:35,666
-Is there really nobody you like?
-No.

40
00:03:35,750 --> 00:03:39,208
-No nice suitors at work?
-Nobody!

41
00:03:39,625 --> 00:03:41,375
You don't want to spill the beans.

42
00:03:43,416 --> 00:03:45,708
But it's nice to dream about it. Right?

43
00:03:46,708 --> 00:03:51,250
Your soulmate could be
somewhere in this city.

44
00:03:59,416 --> 00:04:01,375
Oh, my...

45
00:04:02,125 --> 00:04:04,541
Resasuke, this is problematic.

46
00:04:04,625 --> 00:04:08,791
How many times have I told you
that we don't accept illegible receipts?

47
00:04:10,291 --> 00:04:11,125
I'm sorry.

48
00:04:11,208 --> 00:04:14,875
Let me guess. You put it
in your back pocket and forgot about it?

49
00:04:14,958 --> 00:04:15,791
Yes.

50
00:04:15,875 --> 00:04:18,250
-And then you put it through the wash?
-Yes.

51
00:04:19,875 --> 00:04:22,375
That's another expense
you have to cover yourself.

52
00:04:22,958 --> 00:04:24,458
The Out-of-Pocket Prince.

53
00:04:26,875 --> 00:04:30,041
-The Out-of-Pocket Prince?
-The spaced-out guy from Sales.

54
00:04:30,125 --> 00:04:33,333
-He always gets in trouble.
-I don't know him.

55
00:04:33,416 --> 00:04:35,875
Yes, he's not exactly memorable.

56
00:04:48,250 --> 00:04:49,916
Ms. Retsuko!

57
00:04:50,333 --> 00:04:51,666
Hi, Tsunoda.

58
00:04:51,750 --> 00:04:54,916
Thank you for taking me out to dinner
the other night.

59
00:04:55,500 --> 00:04:57,291
Hello to you too, Ms. Fenneko.

60
00:04:58,458 --> 00:05:00,166
I know this is abrupt...

61
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,666
-Is there someone you like?
-Huh?

62
00:05:05,708 --> 00:05:07,583
No, there isn't...

63
00:05:07,958 --> 00:05:09,958
Then would you join our singles mixer?

64
00:05:10,291 --> 00:05:11,500
A mixer?

65
00:05:11,583 --> 00:05:15,125
No... I'm not into that kind of thing.

66
00:05:15,208 --> 00:05:17,208
I know that you want a boyfriend.

67
00:05:17,625 --> 00:05:20,291
You should come.
This is your chance to meet some guys.

68
00:05:20,375 --> 00:05:22,833
Come on, join us!

69
00:05:23,625 --> 00:05:26,416
Tsunoda, Retsuko isn't interested.
Cut it out.

70
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,041
-Why?
-Mixers are on the way out.

71
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:35,541
A study in Japan has shown that 75% of men

72
00:05:35,625 --> 00:05:39,458
and 65% of women
in their 20s and 30s have no partner.

73
00:05:40,208 --> 00:05:42,375
In other words, more and more people

74
00:05:42,458 --> 00:05:45,291
are choosing the more economical option
of single life!

75
00:05:46,791 --> 00:05:49,500
-With that in mind, do you want to join?
-What?

76
00:05:49,750 --> 00:05:52,708
What do you mean, "With that in mind"?
Did you hear what I said?

77
00:05:53,250 --> 00:05:54,833
I did, but I didn't understand.

78
00:05:55,666 --> 00:05:59,875
Fenneko said that she's coming,
so you should come as well!

79
00:05:59,958 --> 00:06:01,541
I never said that!

80
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,500
A mixer? Sounds good.

81
00:06:08,875 --> 00:06:11,625
I'm not used to such activities...

82
00:06:12,291 --> 00:06:15,041
Your soulmate might be there!

83
00:06:15,708 --> 00:06:17,333
My soulmate?

84
00:06:17,416 --> 00:06:20,250
I don't fall in love that easily.

85
00:06:26,291 --> 00:06:29,416
Retsuko, stop doubting yourself
and put yourself out there.

86
00:06:30,166 --> 00:06:31,666
In the right circumstances...

87
00:06:31,750 --> 00:06:33,416
...anyone can fall in love...

88
00:06:33,500 --> 00:06:34,625
...instantly!

89
00:06:40,125 --> 00:06:44,583
Why did you give into
this mixer thing so easily?

90
00:06:44,666 --> 00:06:46,750
I don't know!

91
00:06:46,833 --> 00:06:48,458
I underestimated her.

92
00:06:48,541 --> 00:06:52,666
I didn't realize Tsunoda was so good
at dragging people into her schemes.

93
00:06:56,583 --> 00:06:59,708
-But don't worry. I'll protect her.
-What?

94
00:07:00,541 --> 00:07:04,166
I'll do my best to protect Retsuko
from those bloodthirsty guys.

95
00:07:04,583 --> 00:07:06,625
So you'll go as her bodyguard?

96
00:07:07,125 --> 00:07:11,291
Please, Fenneko!
You are my only hope.

97
00:07:12,125 --> 00:07:13,375
Leave it to me.

98
00:07:38,875 --> 00:07:40,500
The Out-of-Pocket Prince!

99
00:07:41,083 --> 00:07:42,750
He travels on the same train.

100
00:07:43,583 --> 00:07:45,875
I didn't have a clue.

101
00:07:47,916 --> 00:07:51,541
Maybe I should say hi
when we get off the train.

102
00:07:52,250 --> 00:07:55,250
Wait, how would that
amount to anything?

103
00:07:55,666 --> 00:07:58,750
We'd end up quietly walking to work,
but not quite together.

104
00:07:59,166 --> 00:08:02,375
Anyway, he doesn't even know me.

105
00:08:03,041 --> 00:08:06,416
What a pain.
I wish I hadn't noticed him.

106
00:08:21,041 --> 00:08:23,416
Wait… The office...

107
00:08:26,083 --> 00:08:27,208
What a weirdo.

108
00:08:34,375 --> 00:08:38,708
There are two escape routes:
the main entrance and the emergency exit.

109
00:08:38,791 --> 00:08:41,166
If you get in trouble,
the police station is opposite.

110
00:08:41,708 --> 00:08:43,750
-Got it?
-Yeah.

111
00:08:44,125 --> 00:08:47,541
Ms. Fenneko, please, just chill out.

112
00:08:47,625 --> 00:08:49,791
I'm not here to relax, you know!

113
00:08:49,875 --> 00:08:52,958
Retsuko, I'll protect you
if some freak sets his sights on you.

114
00:08:54,375 --> 00:08:56,500
No freaks are coming tonight.

115
00:08:57,291 --> 00:08:58,750
How can you be so sure?

116
00:08:59,625 --> 00:09:02,166
Because all of them
are from the Sales department.

117
00:09:03,458 --> 00:09:05,375
-From the office?
-That's right.

118
00:09:05,458 --> 00:09:07,958
Didn't I mention it was a company mixer?

119
00:09:10,916 --> 00:09:13,250
-Company...
-Mixer?

120
00:09:14,125 --> 00:09:17,875
-Hi, I'm Manumaru!
-Hello. I'm Rinta.

121
00:09:21,291 --> 00:09:22,875
Say hello!

122
00:09:25,916 --> 00:09:27,333
The Out-of-Pocket Prince.

123
00:09:27,875 --> 00:09:29,625
-What?
-Nothing.

124
00:09:30,666 --> 00:09:32,750
This guy here is Resasuke.

125
00:09:33,250 --> 00:09:36,500
He came to even out the numbers,
so don't mind him.

126
00:09:36,875 --> 00:09:39,125
Don't you think
that's a mean thing to say?

127
00:09:42,500 --> 00:09:45,083
I am Retsuko from Accounting.

128
00:09:45,708 --> 00:09:50,125
-Nice to meet you. You're cute!
-What?

129
00:09:50,625 --> 00:09:52,708
You remind me of someone...

130
00:09:53,833 --> 00:09:56,458
Has anyone ever said
you resemble a Sanrio character?

131
00:09:56,541 --> 00:09:58,291
On occasion...

132
00:10:02,250 --> 00:10:05,416
-Who is this, Tsunoda?
-Fenneko, from Accounting.

133
00:10:05,500 --> 00:10:09,291
Nice to meet you. You're cute, too!

134
00:10:12,458 --> 00:10:14,833
Mixers aren't that bad after all...

135
00:10:18,750 --> 00:10:21,708
-Oh, that's easy-peasy!
-Seriously?

136
00:10:21,791 --> 00:10:24,333
-To put it another way...
-Where did you hear that?

137
00:10:29,708 --> 00:10:32,041
I missed my chance
to join the conversation...

138
00:10:33,833 --> 00:10:35,250
not that I really mind.

139
00:10:38,791 --> 00:10:41,500
I don't want to look bored, though.

140
00:10:42,083 --> 00:10:43,875
What can we talk about?

141
00:10:45,750 --> 00:10:48,500
Hi, I saw you on the train yesterday.

142
00:10:49,250 --> 00:10:51,583
Do you always use the Den-en-toshi line?

143
00:10:53,625 --> 00:10:56,291
You didn't get off at the station
closest to work.

144
00:10:56,375 --> 00:10:58,166
What happened after that?

145
00:11:04,625 --> 00:11:05,666
Well...

146
00:11:06,458 --> 00:11:08,708
You must be joking, buddy.

147
00:11:10,500 --> 00:11:12,666
You're a riot!

148
00:11:13,166 --> 00:11:14,791
Did he say something?

149
00:11:20,333 --> 00:11:21,708
He is so quiet.

150
00:11:23,208 --> 00:11:25,375
Sorry. It's a little noisy...

151
00:11:35,291 --> 00:11:36,291
Huh?

152
00:11:40,333 --> 00:11:43,125
ADD FRIEND

153
00:11:43,208 --> 00:11:44,083
RESASUKE

154
00:11:44,166 --> 00:11:45,083
ADD

155
00:11:51,958 --> 00:11:53,583
CONCERNING THE TRAIN...

156
00:11:55,291 --> 00:11:57,000
I ARRIVED LATE.

157
00:11:57,625 --> 00:11:59,458
SEND

158
00:12:02,666 --> 00:12:07,250
Concerning the train, I was daydreaming.
I missed my stop and arrived late.

159
00:12:14,291 --> 00:12:16,291
May I ask you something?

160
00:12:16,916 --> 00:12:17,916
Of course.

161
00:12:18,541 --> 00:12:20,458
Why are you drinking coffee in a can?

162
00:12:23,166 --> 00:12:24,625
I'm not fond of alcohol.

163
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,375
I understand, but why coffee in a can?

164
00:12:35,166 --> 00:12:39,708
-Haida! Hey, Haida!
-Don't shout. I can hear you.

165
00:12:39,791 --> 00:12:43,500
Mixers are a lot more fun than I thought.

166
00:12:43,583 --> 00:12:45,666
I don't give a damn about that!

167
00:12:45,750 --> 00:12:48,958
-How is Retsuko?
-She's fine. No need to worry.

168
00:12:49,041 --> 00:12:51,250
She isn't cut out for this scene.

169
00:12:51,750 --> 00:12:54,625
She spent the entire party
tapping away at her phone.

170
00:12:55,083 --> 00:12:55,916
I see.

171
00:12:56,541 --> 00:13:01,041
Anyway, Haida, you're a wimp.
Go and ask her out already, you idiot!

172
00:13:03,416 --> 00:13:05,333
I'm not cut out for partying.

173
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,458
Neither am I.

174
00:13:12,250 --> 00:13:14,833
Somehow, I feel really relaxed.

175
00:13:16,208 --> 00:13:20,333
There is a certain stillness
