Good evening.
I'll take your coat.
Thank you.
Good evening. What would you like to have?
I'll have tequila. A Don Julio Añejo.
Double. Two shots of it.
Two shots? Sure thing.
Thank you for waiting.
Send one over there.
Of course.
Mr. Shinoda.
It's from that lady over there.
-One more. -Certainly.
Do you always invite guys like this?
This method is easier.
And you looked lonely.
I did?
More than anyone else here.
Interesting.
You don't like that?
I don't dislike
girls like you.
Anywhere you want to go?
Let's see…
Your house.
The Hyatt.
Maybe I should go home.
Why my house?
It gets me excited
when I have sex in a house tidied up by someone's wife.
I guess I have no choice.
How much do you earn per month?
I don't do this for money.
What do you want me to do?
Give me your wife.
Your wife is the one in that photo, right?
She's really cute.
You're a pervert.
I like that.
What the fuck did you just do?
THE DAY BEFORE
TOKYO COSMETIC SURGERY
Are you feeling okay?
I'm fine.
I'm going to cut the other side, then.
It won't hurt, so relax.
It might hurt for about three days,
but try not to touch it.
Keep the incision area clean,
eat well, and rest well.
Do I look cuter?
You're one step closer to your ideal double eyelids.
-Thank you, Doctor. -Take care.
Are you done praying?
-Let's go now. -All right.
-Okay. -Let's switch. It's Grandpa's turn.
-Here, Dad. -Be careful of the steps.
-Over here. -Here you go, Kazuto and Sora.
Hold this. It's hot, so be careful.
-Thanks. -Come over here.
Stick it in here.
Thanks. One moment.
-Put your hands together. -Here we go.
Is it a boy again?
Yes. It's already noisy enough, but now we'll have six people!
Shut up.
Rei. You should get married soon and show Grandpa his grandchild!
Is there anyone you like?
Well, I guess.
-Are you Ms. Nagasawa? -Yes.
HAPPY 34TH BIRTHDAY, MIKA
Is this to your liking?
Yes.
Oh, I'd like to have this too.
-I'll put it in. -Thanks.
I'm home!
Drinking again.
It's dangerous, though.
Welcome home!
Jeez, you're drinking in the bath again.
It'll be dangerous if your blood pressure drops.
With all due respect, my dear doctor,
coming home to this is what motivates me at work.
Then…
as an exception,
-I'll pour a glass for you. -All right!
Oh, no. Sorry.
It will be perfect once the princess enters the bath with me.
What?
Happy birthday.
One more time.
Hey, you drunkard! That was dangerous!
Don't do that.
I'll go answer that.
My blouse is wet now.
This sucks.
Here we go.
Hello?
This is Shinoda.
What? Hello?
This is Tsujimura.
Tsujimura?
Tsujimura…
It's been a while.
It's been some time.
How have you been?
I'm good.
You know…
You can say no if you want, but…
can we meet now?
Come back soon.
Sorry. I guess not.
I'll come.
-Long time no see. -It's been a while.
What's with this room? It looks amazing.
Well…
You haven't changed at all.
-Really? -Yes.
I mean…
It's been ten years since we last met.
Oh, right.
How's your husband? Is he doing well?
Yes.
He's doing great.
This is the three million yen I borrowed.
Took less than five years.
10 YEARS AGO
What did your husband say about this?
He said, "I'm sorry for all the trouble my wife caused."
He sends his best regards.
He's a decent guy.
I'm glad. Be happy.
Let's pay separately.
If you get into any trouble in the future
and your husband can't help you with it,
let me know anytime.
We won't meet again.
I love you.
You're lying.
What about you?
Do you still love me?
You think I could live a happy life…
with that meager amount of money?
Your husband did this?
Sorry. Are you all right?
I love you.
What's the matter? It'll be fine.
Look at me. Over here.
-That hurts! -I'm sorry!
Sorry. Just go home.
What?
No way!
I'm not going home!
I can't do this anymore…
Why did this happen?
Where did you go?
-I've been waiting for you. -Sorry.
-Who were you with? Tell me! -Sorry.
Who did you go out with? Spill it!
Who was it? Tell me!
Tell me! Who were you with?
Either my husband dies, or I die.
If you're going to die, your husband deserves to die!
If that's the case…
will you kill him for me?
Hello?
It's over.
It's all over.
I left fingerprints and was caught on camera, too.
What are you talking about?
By the time you're home, the police will be looking for me.
Wait a minute.
The police won't investigate further so long as they know who the murderer is.
They won't know you instigated the murder.
Where are you?
Hey!
Get in.
Hurry up.
Where are we going?
Anywhere.
No one is going to hit you or kick you anymore!
Hey!
Sorry, can I use the toilet?
Sorry. I didn't want you to see this.
So he's dead?
He's dead, and I killed him.
And I lost my virginity at 29 years old.
Hey.
Can I join you?
What's wrong?
I was almost killed.
If you two stabbed each other,
it would have all ended right there.
You're right.
I'm sorry.
Get mad at me.
What will they call me?
A home-wrecker who was jealous of his wife…
…or the lesbian fool who was jealous of her crush's husband?
You smile when you lie.
And you look really cute when you do it.
My entire life crumbles…
with just a single smile of yours!
-Good work. -Good work.
Over there.
After questioning the neighbor,
we were informed that at 10:40 p.m. yesterday,
they heard sounds of objects crashing
and someone falling down, so they alerted the security guard.
I see.
Okay.
-May I have a moment, Chief? -Go ahead.
He slumped down here and died.
Nasty business.
It really is.
At first, I thought it would be easier to use gasoline.
Burn the place down.
Why didn't you do that?
I thought you'd get lonely without a home.
I never had a home in the first place.
I'd get beat up for just existing
by my dad and my husband.
His alcoholism triggered a stroke.
He's been in a vegetative state for years.
I wanted to let the bastard die,
but he was kept alive for my husband's good image.
But that ends today.
I'm hungry.
I haven't eaten since yesterday.
Goodbye, Dad.
I don't have much money on me.
Welcome. Please place your order through the microphone.
I was going to turn myself in afterward.
Let's see. A teriyaki burger and cola.
I don't have much with me, either.
Okay, teriyaki and a cola.
A cheeseburger, please.
Of course.
I was supposed to come home from a trip
to discover that a burglar killed my husband.
Thank you for your order.
If that will be all,
-please drive around. -Got it.
Welcome.
I'll be receiving your payment first. It's 1,080 yen in total.
Thanks.
-Here you go. -2,000 yen.
Oh, excuse me.
-Yes? -Can I have fries, too?
Yes, certainly.
I don't want it to stand out.
Should we just drown ourselves somewhere?
-No, I don't like that! -Why?
Your corpse will swell up,
you'll get sticky, and insects will eat you.
-Really? -There's no way I'm doing that.
-Blow ourselves up using kerosene? -Kerosene doesn't explode.
-Really? -Yes!
Really?
-Actually… -Yes?
I killed someone to save you, so why are you trying to die now?
I mean…
is there any future for me if I'm alive?
What are you doing?
Pick one.
I'll go with B.
-B? -Yes.
-You landed here. -Okay.
Ta-da!
DEAD END
What's with that?
-Hey. -What?
What should we do next?
-Hey. -Yes?
I want to go to your parents' home.
Why?
I met your husband and saw where you live.
I met your father too.
I want to know more about you.
I'm coming in.
Satisfied now?
I lived here until I was 18.
My mom left after she got another man, and I haven't seen her since then.
After my mom left,
my dad beat me, as if I were her replacement.
It's as you said. I had to sell my body to live.
That's why I chose the person willing to buy me at the highest price
when I was worth the most.
I realized how much my life was worth.
I've used up my 29 years' worth of luck, self-esteem, and rights.
And now I only have you.
What a cruel world.
You're right.
Why aren't you mad?
It makes me want to give you a pat on the back.
It's so tiring to be with you.
I'm going for a smoke.
FIRST PLACE 100M HURDLES NANAE TSUJIMURA
Set!
That's 14.5 seconds!
-All right! -You broke your record, Tsujimura!
-Yes! -All right!
-Is this the first time you broke 14? -Yes!
You're doing so well today. I couldn't catch up to you!
-Think I can do it? -Of course!
-You can do it! -Thanks!
That's amazing!
She was watching today, too.
I heard she's actually a lesbian, so be careful.
But she seems nice. Being gay isn't harmful or anything.
Wow, she just called her harmful.
-Let's go eat some ice cream. -Let's go.
What's wrong?
These chocolates are so expensive!
Can you afford this with your high-schooler's allowance?
I want tea.
Okay, then.
All right.
I bet your allowance
is more than my salary.
-Here. -Thanks.
I wish I was your true love.
What?
Hey.
Let's kiss.
No, it's my first kiss.
Hey!
Geez.
Come here.
Where are you going?
The restroom.
I told you, forget about that straight girl.
Sooner or later
she'll be sucking some guy's… you know.
That's true.
-What time do we start tomorrow? -I think it's 8:00 a.m.
All right.
Hey.
-I'll go ahead. -Got it.
You're still here?
I had supplementary lessons today.
Shall we walk home together?
Yes.
You're always working hard at practice.
I'm aiming for the top three in the Inter-High.
That's incredible! Didn't you only start at high school?
Right. There's a lot of pressure!
I'm sure you can do it.
Thanks.
-I'll go look at some track spikes. -Oh, bye then.
Wait a minute!
Hold on!
Wait!
Hey, wait!
Stop!
I'm telling you to stop!
Come back!
-Stop! -Stop running!
-Hey! -Wait!
-Hey… -Wait, damn it!
Stop!
Stop running!
-That hurt. -Move aside.
-I'm going to check your bag. -Wait a minute!
She took a pair of shoes, right?
-We got you! -I'll buy it!
No, we'll hand her over to the police.
This covers it, right?
What?
-Let's go. -Wait…
Money is not the issue here.
Hey!
I heard you're quitting school.
I only got into such a good place through my sports scholarship.
Can't you come back after your leg recovers?
I can't buy spikes because I'm poor,
and I can't get proper rehab for my injured leg.
Thus, this is the result.
This is embarrassing.
A rich girl like you had to see me like that.
And I was so sure of my running and shoplifting abilities.
What are you going to do from now on?
No idea. Probably live somewhere that you'll never go.
That's enough talk.
If that's the case,
I'll pay for the rest of your time in high school!
How much were our school fees again?
Two million yen? Or three million yen?
If you're just going to sell your body to men,
what's the difference in me buying you?
Let's change these lame glasses, too.
Who do you think you are?
I'm a rich girl.
What do you want?
Five years.
I'll wait five years.
If you can't pay me back by then,
let me have sex with you.
You'd hate that, right?
Sounds harmful, doesn't it?
If you don't want a girl's fingers inside you,
go work in a proper company and get married to some rich guy.
Damn!
"Caught speeding. Pay three thousand dollars."
My first fine ever in life.
I called the police.
I want to start over from scratch.
You said you'll take the blame, right?
-Are you serious? -Yes.
Save me.
You could've at least let me fuck you first!
There's no time to do it now!
Thanks for waiting. Kamegame Sushi.
That will be 6,000 yen, please.
Well,
I wondered what you'd say if I told you I called the police.
I was worried.
Since you don't get mad no matter what I say.
I'm sorry.
It must have hurt.
I was going to tell the police I forced you to come with me.
That's what I would tell them.
They shouldn't see us happily drinking,
so I wanted you to be afraid of me.
Even so…
After I hit you,
I saw how scared you really were.
That was the worst thing I could've done.
I'm sorry.
This is the end.
We can't run anymore.
Why are we having sushi anyway?
It's our last meal.
I can't eat raw fish.
-Really? -Actually…
it's pretty cliché to have sushi as a last meal.
Well, I'm sorry.
It's a cliché luxury that poor people like me want.
I'm sorry.
I'll turn myself in tomorrow.
We still haven't had our last meal!
You two! Stop!
Stop!
Hold up!
-What? -Get on!
Hey!
-I'm sorry! -Wait a minute!
Stop right there!
This is PC107.
I'm in pursuit of two suspicious individuals!
This is PC107.
Mom?
What's going on?
You're sleeping in this late?
Playing hooky?
Why are you here?
I had something to do in the neighborhood.
I texted you, didn't I?
Also,
your dad went for an arrhythmia checkup.
It cost around 80,000 yen,
but turns out he's fit as a fiddle.
Oh well, as long as he's healthy.
But we don't know if the doctor's a quack.
How's your girlfriend?
She's not home today?
Sorry.
Oh, well…
She…
I think she left.
You're not sure?
You know,
that's what I don't like about her.
She didn't introduce you to her parents, either.
She said her parents would be hurt
if they knew their daughter was gay.
So…
she said filial piety dictates she shouldn't tell them.
What? She's taking you for a fool. She's just afraid to tell them.
You know,
when you brought her to me and your dad,
you mustered all your courage
and introduced her to us.
I was happy.
But that girl acted as if none of this was any of her concern.
-Here you go. -Thanks.
Mom.
I'm sorry.
What for?
I'm 34 years old,
and I'm still like this.
I couldn't give you a grandchild.
What are you saying?
You're still the same, even at this age.
Such a crybaby
and always acting so spoiled.
Anyway, you look older now.
I can see those laugh lines on your face.
-Hey! -What's wrong?
-Oh, no! -Wait…
What?
One minute.
No good.
-We're out of gas. -No way.
CAFETERIA HIROSATO
After you.
Welcome.
Table for two, please.
-This way. -Okay.
Beer has never tasted so good!
-That's good! -I know, right?
It is good, isn't it?
I think it's the first time I've seen you make that face.
I'm heading to the washroom.
BUSINESSMAN SLAUGHTERED
SOCIALITE COUPLE'S DARKNESS PROSTITUTE'S TWISTED LOVE
You guys look like you're having fun.
Sorry we were so noisy.
Did you lose your shoes?
Yes.
Are you all right?
Please don't mind me.
How can we repay you?
I can't just leave you two alone. You stick out like a sore thumb.
Where did you girls come from? Tokyo?
You don't look like locals.
Or vacationers, for that matter.
Are you two here for work?
We're on the run after killing someone.
Since you saw our faces, we'll have to kill you too.
I was in Tokyo until last year.
My company went under and I came back here.
It's really boring here.
I'm just waiting for time to pass.
My company failed, I was in debt…
I even raised a hand to my wife and kid.
I received a restraining order, so I can't see them anymore.
My wife looks like you. Just a little.
That's why I helped you.
Thank you for your help.
Maybe we should've asked him to drive us a bit further.
It's fine as long as we're sleeping under a roof.
I'll take a nap.
I knew it. You two are still here.
Is it really true that you killed someone?
That's a scary face.
I wanted to have a drink with you.
Where will you run away to?
No idea.
I wonder what's next.
Trying to escape from reality?
How old are you, young lady?
I'm 23 years old.
No way!
You look way more mature for your age.
You got me!
I'm 29.
Your hair is beautiful.
You like this, right?
Can we really do it raw?
I knew that you would understand me.
Hey.
Here.
I don't know what happened to you,
but take this.
Hello?
Rei?
It's you, isn't it?
Are you…
Are you all right?
I'm sorry.
You're…
not coming back, are you?
Sorry.
Don't apologize like it's nothing.
I…
I don't have a clue…
what you've been doing.
You didn't call.
And I don't even know…
where you're at.
I know…
I'm talking to myself, but…
the fact that…
I could only
like girls…
Ever since I was a child…
I was worried about it, just like anyone else would.
But after I went out with you…
For the first time in my life…
I was glad that…
I was born
a gay woman.
Now…
…you're with the person you love, right?
I'm glad.
Goodbye.
Hey.
What do you want to do?
We could die together.
Or we could go to the police, too.
I want to take a shower.
And I want to sleep on a futon.
Us two…
we're not friends, nor are we lovers.
But I'm not against having a good talk with you during our remaining time.
That was you, Ms. Nagasawa?
It's been dangerous around here recently,
so please don't do that again.
Sorry to trouble you. I lost my key.
So you really are rich, huh?
This place belongs to my dad.
-It's tasty! -Yes.
You can't cook at all?
You can have all the good food you want if you can pay for it.
You had someone to cook for you, right?
I did.
My mother
refused to accept that I was gay until the very end.
So I asked my male friend to pretend to be my boyfriend.
Then my mom told me, "I'm glad you're cured of your homosexuality."
And then she died a while after that.
I don't want to be rejected by anyone again.
I don't care if they don't understand me.
As long as I come to terms with it, I can have a decent life.
But when I saw you,
the love I felt for you in high school came rushing back.
I always wished I could be the person you had by your side.
It all came back to me.
I WONDER IF THE WIFE WAS KILLED TOO
HURRY AND IDENTIFY HER
REIWA GIRLS' HIGH SCHOOL ALUMNA
I'll get the offal rice bowl.
-I'll have the beef rice bowl. -Thanks.
Excuse me. May we have a moment of your time?
We'd like to speak with you.
Why are you here, Masato?
The security guard called us.
He thought it was a burglar, but it was you.
The person on the news.
That wasn't you, right?
What?
No way. Wait…
Seriously?
That woman…
Is she that man's wife?
I'm sorry.
Seriously, what are you doing?
I'm sorry for the precautions.
Things would get messy if you were to escape.
I understand.
I'm… Rei's sister-in-law.
Are you two together?
No. It's not like that.
Then why are you two running away together?
Why would you do this?
What is that woman in the glasses to you?
She's not the girl you've been with for ages.
You knew?
I've wondered about it many times before.
Do you have feelings for her?
Say something. I won't understand if you don't explain it.
There's only one thing you can do.
Turn yourself in and atone for what you've done.
Don't commit any more crimes.
All right.
I'll go tomorrow morning.
Go now.
The sooner the better, even if only a little.
Do it now and show you're sincere.
Then…
come back sooner, even if only a little.
There'll be a home waiting for you.
What are you doing?
I was thinking about jumping out and dying.
Sorry.
We've been found.
My brother is going to drive me to the police station now.
I'll say that I kidnapped and imprisoned you.
Did your brother agree to it?
Yes.
I got him to understand.
We ran when it was just us,
but now your family is here, you do this.
What?
Just do whatever you want.
I'm just a stranger.
-Why are you mad? -I'm not.
I just don't want to talk to you.
Just go to the police with your brother for all I care!
Sorry.
I see.
You feel lonely?
Hey! Careful!
I hate it when you're so insensitive!
You're not a kid!
-Stop sulking! -Shut up!
Hey, what are you two doing?
Calm down!
You're so pathetic!
Are you pitying me?
My brother asked me just now.
He said, "What do you think of her?" And that's when I realized.
You're a pathetic person!
You can't think of any ideas to escape from your husband, and here you are…
This only happened because you actually killed him for real!
You bitch!
That's right!
I mean…
You're just so damn pathetic!
Shut up!
Just shut up already!
You know…
once you've atoned for what you've done,
go find a good guy
and try making a good family and have a kid.
Stop it, Masato!
You start to understand some things once you're a parent.
Masato!
And then
you'll be able to realize
the small joy of simply having a family.
You hear me?
All right.
I'll turn myself in with her.
I'm going to the bathroom to wash off the blood.
Hey!
I knew it.
We live in different worlds.
I should never have picked you up.
Why did you?
Pity.
I thought I was all that you had left…
since you're a murdering lesbian fool.
I see.
I thought you were going to elope with me.
I was so happy.
I planned on dying,
but I'll do what little I can to atone…
by living and testifying in court.
And then what?
I'll live somewhere you'll never go.
We'll leave in half an hour.
Stay here.
Let's pay separately.
Isn't this…
You saw it?
-You kept it all this time? -It just happened.
-For ten years? -That's right.
Hey, let's go somewhere.
What?
Let's run away.
It's impossible.
We can't run away forever.
What are you thinking…
I was thinking that you're so cute.
Are you dumb?
I am.
I've locked everything up, so I'll get the car started now.
-Okay. Be there in a minute. -Okay.
Let's go.
Okay.
Ready, go!
-Come on. -Okay!
Please do me a favor.
Don't say anything, and just give us the car.
Give up.
There will be no end to this if you keep dragging it on.
Please!
Why do you think I killed someone?
I'll never bother you again.
Are you
prepared for the worst?
This is in place of your funeral offering.
Go, hurry up.
Hey!
-I loved you, Masato! -Hey!
Let me go!
Rei!
Why did you let them go?
They could end up dead at this rate!
Rei looked
-like she was prepared for that. -Then why did you let her go?
Being alive doesn't mean everything will be all right.
Yes it does.
They can start from scratch.
You…
you don't know why she killed that man, do you?
No.
Me neither.
Well, thinking about it,
as long as they both know what they're doing, so be it.
What are you talking about?
You…
Who would you kill for?
I would never kill anyone.
-What if you had no choice? -Why do you have to talk about this?
If I could just talk to her…
She's made up her mind.
She's considered everything.
Why?
Listen up.
I… could kill someone…
no matter who tried to stop me,
if it were for you or the kids.
Aren't you going to ask me why?
I thought you were dumb, but so am I, it turns out.
Right.
We're really dumb.
-Yes! -You moron!
Yes!
Splitting the bill made me feel equal to you for the first time.
And that ends today.
Let's go.
Where?
Somewhere we can be alone.
That gets the heart racing, doesn't it?
Now this next song was requested…
This takes me back!
It's "CHE.R.RY" by YUI!
Courage
I'm bad at emoticons
But my heart starts racing When I receive one from you
I shouldn't reply To your messages immediately
That's what I heard from someone else
But I can't play mind games
Because I like you
I fell in love
You probably didn't realize it
Wishing "CHE.R.RY" upon the starry night
As I type my message to you
The cherry blossoms bloom
As I watch the scenery from my room
Hey.
If I had turned myself in,
you were going to kill yourself, weren't you?
I thought I should return you.
To your family.
That's why I abandoned them.
For a dumb, lesbian murderer like me,
there's no place to go back to.
You're all I have.
It must be nice for men.
They can put something inside women.
My fingers can't fill you up.
Just once is fine.
I want to hold the woman I love in my arms
and have sex with her.
Could you kill me?
Yes.
But if I killed you,
what would I do when I'm all alone?
I couldn't bear you not being in my life!
It would kill me!
Now I've killed once, killing twice would make no difference.
I can kill you if you want, but…
No way.
This is embarrassing.
Should I stop?
Don't stop.
You're the girl I love.
I'm going to die!
Listen.
I don't want to live anymore, anyway.
I want to end my life myself.
If…
if it would kill you to lose me…
I can kill you.
Want to say anything before the end?
I…
I didn't commit murder so I could have sex with the person I love.
I had sex
with someone I love so much
that I'd commit murder for them.
Make sure you don't get that wrong.
Is this seat empty?
-Go ahead. -Thanks.
Everyone's here, right?
Observation is fundamental for rough sketching.
Please begin.
Your name.
What?
What's your name?
We've never spoken before.
Tsujimura.
Nanae Tsujimura.
I'm Rei Nagasawa.
Excuse me.
Yes?
Did something bad happen to you?
Why would you say that?
You seem down.
Nothing happened.
Then can you smile?
I don't like it when I have to draw someone looking sad.
Got it.
-Hey. -Yes?
You remember the time we first met?
It was in art class.
I do.
You suddenly asked me to smile,
and it was creepy.
I couldn't forget that sour look you had.
You looked so pitiful as you forced a smile,
but also so cute.
You're the one who told me to smile!
Why were you in a bad mood?
My mom left that day.
It was the day my family fell apart.
That sketch of me you drew…
I thought it would be great if I had a family
that could make me smile like that.
Here.
Get up.
Here you go.
Move a little.
Where are you going?
To pee.
Wishing "CHE.R.RY" upon the starry night
As I type my message to you
I prefer fruit that ripens slowly
I want to start our relationship With small talk
I shouldn't reply To your messages immediately
That's what I heard from someone else
But I can't play mind games
Because I like you
I fell in love
You probably didn't realize it
Wishing "CHE.R.RY" upon the starry night
As I type my message to you
Hello.
From now on…
Friends…
lovers…
that's all too complicated.
How about becoming a family instead?
What?
Why? What's wrong?
Nothing.
I'll go get something to eat.
Okay.
Ms. Nanae Shinoda?
Rei!
Ms. Nagasawa?
Yes.
Please come to the station with us.
This way.
Rei…
Rei!
I'll wait for you!
NANAE TSUJIMURA REI NAGASAWA
