Look there, big smile.

Smile... Aah, that's...

That's beautiful, thank you.

Faithful dog awaits return

of deceased master

Hey Hachi.

This kid in Gary,

send you his lunch money.

He ask me to buy you

treats with it.

It's the third one this week.

If this keeps up, I've gotta

open a bank account for you.

Don't say I never gave you though.

Dog's making it like a bandit here.

Look at this! Isn't that cute?

Hey Hac!

- What're you doing with his money?

- I am his executor.

- Be right with you, sir.

- Thank you.

Hello Hachi, how are you?

Here you are Hachi.

There you are.

Hungry... eh?

Yes, very cold. He must eat.

I'm just Jess,

I run the hotdog stand.

I'm Ken-Vijish,

Professor Wilson's friend.

Mr. Professor, ha.

One sugar, two creams.

So then you must have

read the article then?

I did!

You saw my name in the article?

Yes, I did. That...

Twice.

Please, let me help with the expense.

No, no, no, please. No money.

What if he get sick?

Medical expenses...

They get collection,

from the travellers,

the vendors and

we will take care of it.

This station is where Hachi

roams now.

Everyday he comes same time,

same place...

... here only.

You'll do that for him?

Take care of him?

Of course!

Okay then.

Got to serve some hotdogs.

Good to meet you.

Me too.

Thank you very much.

Come on, mister.

Here we go.

Want some more?

Here, take this.

Okay... come on boy, last piece.

Taste good, eh?

This is where you

all brought it?

- Oh, thank you.

- See you tomorrow, Hachi.

Ciao, Hachi!

Thanks.

The usual, eh?

Why you ever not take

chicken wings?

Hey, this...

Mustard?

Mrs. Wilson, nice to

see you again.

Good afternoon.

Hey, that's the professor's wife, eh?

Now Showing

The Merchant of Venice

Parker H. Wilson

Loving husband and father

Cate.

Ken...

It's been awhile.

Certainly have.

It's been 10 years...

can you believe it.

Hi Hachi!

Good day, Hachi.

Coffee without sugar, and don't

put mustard in the hot dog.

Ketchup is the best.

Alright, have a good one.

Hachi?

Hachi...

Oh, you poor thing,

you're still waiting.

Good boy.

Hachi!

If it's alright, could I wait with

you for the next train?

Yeah?

Thanks.

Oh, Hachi...

You're so tiny.

You like that mom?

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

Let's go somewhere.

Oh, that's me.

I know, I remember.

I remember I was there that day

when the picture was taken.

- He is so excited.

- Hmm!

Oh, he's at the wedding.

Yeah, he's right there.

Right there.

Where did grandpa find Hachi?

Ronnie, actually Hachi found

your grandfather.

How?

One night, your grandfather

was coming back from a trip.

Got out of the train station

and on the platform...

Hey, wake up.

Hey, boy.

Hey, come on. Let's go!

Hachi!

Hey boy!

I never met my grandfather.

He died when I was just a baby.

But when I hear about him and Hachi,

I feel like I know him.

They taught me the

meaning of loyalty,

and you should never forget

anyone that you love.

And that's why Hachi will

forever be my hero.

Oh, he's happy to see somebody.

Move along.

Come on Hachi, let's go!
