You must have faith in each other

You must have love for each other

Show Satake all the warmth

and affection you've shown me

All right?

Then your new, true happiness

will emerge

Understand?

You understand, don't you?

- Sorry for being so selfish

- You understand, then

- It was very selfish of me

- Well, I'm glad you understand

I didn't want you to get married

feeling the way you did

Marry him

and I'm sure you'll be happy

It's not difficult

I'm sure you'll make a great couple

I'm looking forward to it

Soon we'll laugh about this talk

we're having tonight

I'm sorry...

...for worrying you all the time

So...just be happy.

All right?

- I'm sure I'll be happy

- Of course you will

I know you can do it,

I have no worries

Be happy

I got worried

when it started raining last night

I'm glad it cleared up

- Rain would've ruined the day

- Yes

- Where did you go on your honeymoon?

- Yugawara

Noriko's going there, too.

Are there buses only from the station?

- No, you can get a cab

- Oh, there are taxis?

- Professor, you're wanted upstairs

- Very well

Your daughter's such a beautiful bride

- Go upstairs and have a peek

- Very well...

She makes a wonderful bride

- Oh, she's ready now, Brother

- I see

- Is the car ready?

- It's arrived

Thank you. Thank you all

All ready, eh?

- We'll go on ahead

- Please do

- I'll take this along

- Thank you

Nori-chan, do you have your fan?

You're such a beautiful bride

I wish your mother could see you

Well, shall we get going?

We don't want to be rushed

Do you have anything

to say to Nori?

- No, I have nothing more to say

- Really?

Nori-chan, let's go, then

Father...

These many long years...

...thank you for everything

Be happy, and be a good wife

Be happy

Remember, be a good wife

Shall we go, then?

Aya-chan, want some?

This is my third

I can handle five

- Once I drank six and I fell down

- Did you?

Here you go

Professor Onodera came here

with your daughter recently

- That's right

- I was amazed

So grown up.

She's not with you today?

We just saw her off at Tokyo Station.

She got married

Did she? And you saw her off?

- Many congratulations

- Thank you

Thank you!

Uncle...

- Where will she be by now?

- I'd say around Ofuna

Probably.

You'll be lonely from now on

Not too much

I'll get used to it

Ready for your fourth?

Listen, Uncle...

- Are you really going to remarry?

- Why?

It worried Noriko. That's what

seemed to bother her the most

Don't do it. Why would you

do it again? You mustn't

All right? I mean it

But if I'd said otherwise,

she'd never have got married

You're wonderful. Amazing!

I'm so impressed

Don't worry, you won't be lonely.

I'll visit you often. Really

Please do, Aya-chan

I certainly will

I feel wonderful

I'll take my fifth!

That's my fill

Remember to visit me.

I'll be expecting you

Of course, I promised.

I don't tell lies like you do

What?

Or at least not so convincingly

It couldn't be helped.

It was the biggest lie of my life

- Welcome home

- Evening

- Did she get off all right?

- Yes, thank you

That's good.

I offer you my congratulations

- I'm indebted to you

- Not at all

Goodnight

Give my regards to Sei

Goodnight, then

'Night
