Stop that, Someka.
There's no need to apologise
Mistress...
...will you let me come back?
lt feels so good coming back here
and seeing the new trainees...
l intend to make a completely fresh start.
l hope we can work something out
Mistress...
...that Nanako is awful, isn't she?
She's working at Tsutaji's now
As she wishes
- Where's Katsuyo?
- She's upstairs sewing
ls she really? Katsuyo?
How nice!
l love that noise the machines make.
l'll go up and see her
This is for you...
Oh, you shouldn't have
l'll let Otsuta keep
the house for a while...
...but l may move her out and open
a branch of my restaurant there instead
At the house?
And what will become of the girls there?
lf they want to continue as geisha...
...then they can all go across the river
and find work there
Still, l've seen their new trainees
and none of them has any potential
Otsuta's been a geisha many years
but she's still no judge of character
They'll all turn out just like Namie
One has to put in years of hard work
to become a geisha
l'd like you to consider this...
...you're a woman
with many fine qualities...
...and l think you're wasting
your talents as a mere maid
What do you think?
l don't require an immediate answer...
...but l'll give you a month or so
to make up your mind
l was also considering Katsuyo...
...but on reflection
l don't think she'd fit in at all
lf you say no, l have plenty of others
to choose from
And the mistress knows all about this?
Of course not
So?
Well...
...l don't think l can accept your offer,
madame
l'm terribly sorry
Really?
Very well, then
Don't breathe a word of this
to Otsuta or anyone, will you?
No...
Well, then, if you'll excuse me...
- Good
- Fujiko's coming on, isn't she?
- You think so?
- Oh, very promising
l have a new geisha to present to you!
Oh, l say!
- lt's a honour to meet you
- How wonderful she looks!
- Congratulations
l see that you've fully recovered,
Madame Otsuta. l'm so pleased
Thank you so much
We're starting up our business again
with some new faces
l wish you all the best
Please excuse us
- She must've cost her 300,000 yen
- You reckon that much?
That sash she was wearing
was nothing special
And her hair wasn't arranged properly
at all, was it?
But they don't care about
those things nowadays
That's true
Mistress, l bought these for everyone
as they looked so tasty
lt's my treat
Oharu, you're such a kind person
lsn't she? l don't know what l'd do
without her help
Not at all. l'll bring the tea through
in a moment
Oharu, get the girls
to give you some help
- Kiyo!
- Yes?
- What is it you're making?
- l'm no good
l'm not sure l'll be able to make anything!
l'm just practising
You're very diligent, Katsuyo
No, not really
l just know that
l have to find some kind of work
l can't do what my mother does
l have to find some means
to support us both when she gets old
You're right
You know, l'm so glad
that you're here, Oharu
l can always talk to you
and ask your advice
Of course, l'd be happy
to offer you help and advice anytime
Yes...l know that
And l realise that
you may not be here forever...
Well, l'd like to take a short trip
to my late husband's hometown
- ln the provinces?
- Yes
l have to visit the graves
of my husband and child
After that, who knows?
My husband's relatives are very strict
l left home so l could be free
from their constraints...
...but now l feel it's selfish of me
to stay away
l see...
Please try one of these sweet buns,
they're delicious
The End
