You...

It's not "you", my name is Shinozaki!

It's okay.

This was my fault.

Let's go.

Who does he think he is?

I'm sorry.

What was with that officer's attitude?

It can't be helped, because I was

in a juvenile detention center.

It doesn't matter where you were.

That's no excuse to treat people like that.

It doesn't matter? It was a

juvenile detention center.

Still, is that a reason to apologize?

Don't apologize when you're not at fault.

What?

It's just funny watching

you lose your temper.

Are you making fun of me?

No, I was trying to compliment you.

Old man.

Do you have a bad sense of direction?

It's this way.

8 Years Ago

[Yamane]

You a**hole!

You little sh*t!

I'm sorry!

What the f*** were you thinking,

ripping up a photo of your mother?

What are you doing?

You little sh*t!

You little sh*t!

Enough!

What are you doing!?

Get out the way!

Let go of me!

Let go of me!

You little sh*t...!

Hey!

What are you trying to do to your mother?

Mother? How are you a mother?

You've never acted like a mother to us!

I...

If the two of you had never been

born, I would've been much happier!

Are you okay? Mom!

Please don't die!

Mom!

Are you okay?

Mom!

Half a Year Later

You have some nerve coming here.

Enough, she got drunk and died after getting

hit by a car. Saori is not at fault.

Still...

That's enough.

Takahiro?

This is all your fault.

Mom didn't come home because she hated you.

It's your fault that mom died!

[Family:
None]

Hello.

Please come again.

But this place will be torn down soon.

Until we meet again.

Hey, was 500,000 really enough?

Was 500,000 too little?

Eh?

500,000?

Huh? This person gave you

500,000 yesterday right?

Of course it's more than enough.

Your husband is treating

Vanessa to sushi today.

Vanessa!?

You have a bad personality.

What are you talking about?

Nothing.

It looks corny.

Idiot, it's an underrated classic.

The star in this one,

Kakyoin Noriko, was superb.

I think it came out when

I was 22 years old.

And to think they're showing

it in theaters again.

It's a movie you remember fondly.

Let's go inside.

Hello.

[Private number]

Hello?

Sis?

It's Takahiro.

I got a weird phone call

from a guy named Chiba.

What did he say?

To ask you for more information.

I'm living an honest life.

I don't know what you're involved in,

but please don't drag me into it.

I understand that. It's okay.

I won't cause you any trouble.

That's all I wanted to say.

Don't worry, it's okay.

That's no good!

It has to be today.

I'll say this again, but the

last showing was yesterday.

When was it supposed to end?

Tomorrow.

Why are the posters still up?

What's wrong?

I'm deeply sorry.

They stopped showing it yesterday

because of poor sales.

Can't you show it just one more time?

I can't do anything about it,

it was the manager's decision.

Don't you also work here?

I'm just a part-timer.

So you're just a part-timer huh?

It must be nice to sit there

all day with that stupid face

and get paid to sniff oxygen

for that empty head of yours.

What the hell is your problem!?

Is something wrong?

Manager!

Manager? Can we watch

"Memory of First Love"?

I'm sorry, we stopped showing that.

Can you come again later?

Okay?

Okay?

In the spring we're doing a classic film

festival, so you can watch it then.

Okay?

Okay, okay, okay? What's

with your attitude?

That's enough, calm down.

Do you know who he is?

He's pretty dangerous,

he's one of those people.

You understand right?

Do you want to see blood spilled here?

Fine.

Shut up for a second!

I'll buy all the seats with this.

Prepare it immediately.

This is great, no kids

making noise like monkeys,

and no smelly old hags.

Hey, it might not be my place to say this,

but you're really childish aren't you?

How?

Losing your temper quickly

and starting a fight.

It's childish to cause

a commotion like that.

You need to say what you want clearly,

or you won't obtain anything.

Most people fear failure so

they keep their mouth shut.

But later they regret

not taking any action.

Is that so?

Who cares about that.

5 minutes after the movie starts, Noriko will

walking on the other side of the bridge.

Then there will be a sudden gust of

wind, and her skirt will fly up.

The embarrassed face

Noriko makes is very cute.

That scene is the best.

What do you mean we're leaving?

We only watched it for 10 minutes.

The whole place is reserved!

Shut up and drive the car.

Open it.

Thank you for waiting.

Today we're giving you double the

pickles as a special service.

Please help yourself to more rice.

Oh... are you cold?

Should I prepare hot tea for you?

It's chilly in here right?

I'll turn on the heat for you.

Shut up, I don't need it.

Give me that thing of yours.

That?

You know, this.

Ahh.

Here.

Not bad.

What?

Why did you leave in the

middle of the movie?

It was different from what I was expecting.

Was it the wrong movie?

No, it was the right movie but it

wasn't the one from my memories.

What do you mean?

It was totally different

from what I originally saw.

Both the picture and story.

Yesterday's dinner was the same.

I thought it would be a lot more delicious.

Nostalgia made me think they were

much better than they actually were.

That actress was indeed pretty ugly though.

It just means my life wasn't nearly

as great as I thought it was.

What do you mean?

I abandoned them a long time ago.

Abandoned what?

My wife and daughter.

To make my life easier.

I married young, had a kid, and

then started to do well at work.

After I became successful,

they turned into a burden.

The nagging wife and the crying kid.

Papa?

Papa!

So I threw them away.

Not long after,

my wife committed suicide.

It's been 30 years since then, and I

haven't met my daughter even once.

Then one day, a letter came.

One feels shy after all this time right?

This?

Why do you have this?

It fell out and I picked it up.

I see.

What is it?

A request for a present.

That's what "Help me" means?

What exactly is the present?

This.

That's a pretty box.

Jewelry?

It's nothing important.

But I'm relieved.

About what?

That a father who abandoned his

child couldn't find happiness.

Do I look unhappy to you?

Would a happy person want a

great blessing that badly?

That's true.

You should be unhappy.

That's the fate of someone who abandoned

their responsibility of being a parent.

But objects don't have any sin.

So I'll help you deliver the present.

Hurry up and eat.

Who walks you down the aisle

if you don't have a father?

You have to walk alone.

Right.

If you don't like it there's

no need to do it at a church.

I'm not talking about that.

Why here?

I brought my daughter here

to play a long time ago.

You'll get wet.

I don't mind.

I pushed her on the swing here.

Although it was only once.

Why do you need money so badly?

The guy I was dating borrowed money

from some bad people and fled.
