Love And Other Cults Page #3

Synopsis: Born in a regional city, a young girl named Ai (Sairi Ito) is sent to a cult commune by her religious maniac mother and lives there for seven long years. After the cult is exposed by the police, Ai starts a new, normal life going to a regular middle school, but can't find a place to fit in normal society. Ai drops out to continue finding her path in life, first living with a rock-bottom delinquent family, then moving on to be part of a middle-class family, all along trying to find her place in this world. The only person who understands Ai is Ryota (Kenta Suga), another drop-out and cast-off from society. Ryota finds his path in a shady world of delinquents while Ai ends up working in the sex industry. Two teens' purity gets swallowed up by the urban jungle of a big regional city. A black comedy depicting lives of modern youth and their struggles in a place where there is no way out.

Look this way!

- Lost again.

- One more time!

Rock, paper, scissors!

Look this way!

Rock, paper, scissors!

- Morning.

- Again!

Look this way!

Good morning!

- Hi, Yuka.

- Hi.

There is nothing left.

Why?

I'm so hungry.

You got up too late.

Look, Ai is already up.

One more time!

Time to go, Darling.

Oh yeah.

What fun.

- I'm off.

- Take care.

- Let's go.

- See you.

- Hey, Dad.

- Yeah?

Is that tie new?

This? It was the present from Ai.

Present?

For my birthday, 3 days ago.

Didn't you know that?

The way you call her,

is too friendly.

She's my friend, you know?

Why are you being moody?

Ai's left school to work

long hours in a factory.

You should look up to her.

Hey Ryota.

Come...

- But Ai...

- It's okay.

- What is it'?

- Just wait.

Please read this.

I'm sorry.

Did I upset you?

Uh, nah.

But...

I'm in love with someone.

Oh, I see.

This one.

He's joking.

- I'm serious.

- Shut up!

- What's that for?

- Sweet couple.

We're not a couple, no way!

Stop kidding around.

- Huh.

- Idiot!

- Looking good!

- Sorry, I kept you waiting.

- Wow!

- This is Beef Tagliata.

Where did you learn?

I practiced a bit.

- You are full of surprises, Ai.

- Yes, indeed.

- I'm home.

- Hiya.

Wash your hands.

Ai cooked something special.

Homemade Tiramisu.

- Look at this!

- Looks yummy!

What's this for?

Today is our wedding anniversary.

Ai cooked for us as a gift.

Ticking every occasion, huh?

What's with you?

I'm grateful for what Mom

and Dad are doing for me.

My Mom and Dad.

But they are my Mom

and Dad as well now.

- Stealing my family, you creep!

- Yuka!

Mom, kick this b*tch out

of our house, right now!

- Get off! Get out!

- That's enough, Yuka!

Apologize to Ai.

Huh?

You've been brainwashed?

I'm the only daughter you have!

We are family,

Ai is your sister.

Be nice.

No way. Definitely not!

- Serena, go to table one.

- Yes, thank you.

Welcome.

Ai.

Dad, Dad, please!

Please don't go!

Listen to me, Dad! Please!

Please wait, Dad!

Dad!

Please just listen to me.

There is a reason, Dad.

All I wanted is give you and

Morn loads more presents.

Don't call me Dad!

Please! Please let me explain!

- Enough!

- Please. Please!

Just listen to me, please!

This way!

- Where?

- Please!

Dad. I'm your daughter,

so you can...

do whatever you like.

Do whatever you like!

Please leave my house

by tomorrow.

"I shed all my tears

to the last drop".

Leaving these words behind,

Ai disappeared from my sight.

Boss Kida has no idea?

Risky, isn't it?

I told ya, no problem.

You're getting it cheaper,

stop yapping about.

You little sh*t.

Since Ai disappeared, I became

someone even I don't know.

The city of darkness.

All I wanted was to save

enough money and be gone.

Hello, Mr. Sugihara?

It's Kitamura.

Are you all set for career

guidance tomorrow?

Yes.

I have to visit my student now.

Speak soon.

- I'm Mina.

- Hiya.

- I'll set the timer.

- Yeah.

- Fifty minutes?

- Yeah.

- Shower...

- Don't bother.

The scent of sweat

turns me on.

Oh yeah.

Great.

I like your ass, baby.

Did you do any sports?

Sex?

- Not allowed.

- Oh, come on.

It's the must thing nowadays

to secure your customers.

Let me do it, yeah?

- Put this out.

- I can't

- It's okay, I'll be nice.

- No.

- I'm not allowed.

- It's fine.

I'm not allowed.

Oh yeah.

Dirty girl.

Stray fish will swim aimlessly

in the sea, forever.

Like I'm swimming.

As if I was a fish.

Ai.

Hey, Ryota.

It's been a while.

You haven't changed.

That wasn't the Ai I knew,

she had changed a lot.

Still in high school?

Yeah, I am.

I'm home.

You must...

make me dinner right away.

- I'm starving.

- Sorry, Mom.

My friend, Ryota.

Her mother became a Christian,

her 13th religion.

Ready made meals again?

There weren't many left.

And forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive them that

trespass against us.

Amen.

Hey, Ryota.

Shall we?

Come on.

Stop it.

What's that for?

Hit me again.

Please hit me more.

Go on, hit me.

Please, hit me harder!

Please.

Hit me.

Let go!

We can't stay here.

Let's leave, yeah?

I've got money,

let's go to Tokyo.

We'll be fine in Tokyo,

trust me!

No!

My name is Ananda.

This town is killing you,

come with me!

Can't you realize we have...

different lives?

Goddamit, I kill ya!

Sorry, sorry.

I'm so sorry, I am.

- You're nothing without Kenta.

- Yes, sorry.

Take those two, leave this wuss.

Ouch! Sorry.

Thank you.

You'll die here, prick!

You've gone too far!

I am number one!

In this town, every day

someone breaks down.

Two.

...and this.

Come on, hurry up.

Yet every day someone

is also saved.

Is there room for this?

At the back.

Do you know black kokanee?

- Black kokanee?

- Yes.

Their silver body turns black

at spawning season.

- Isn't it cool?

- I wanna see it.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Dive with me?

- I can't.

- It's okay, only 30 meters.

- Thirty?

- Yep.

- It's amazing.

- I bet.

- Let's dive.

- I can't.

- Why not?

- Stop that.

- I'm not taking.

- No.

- I'm just looking.

- Huh?

Second thought...

- I'll stick with fish.

- You...

- Amazing!

- Fish aren't just food.

That's what people say.

Never seen anything like that.

- Really?

- Yeah.

- Shall we go again?

- Yes.

Hey.

It ain't a joke!

Something is about to

explode in the town.

F***in' a**holes!

This is war, kill them all!

What the f***?

- Let's talk to Kenta.

- You chicken sh*t!

He ain't the boss of me.

A**hole!

Get the f*** up!

I'm gonna kill him.

F***ing loser.

You hear me?

Finally. Back from smooching, huh?

- What's up?

- Eh?

Have you chickened out?

Watch your mouth, kid.

You ain't my boss, idiot.

We can get our own back.

What's wrong with you, Yuji?

Nothing.

You know about Ryota?

Going to university?

Don't make me puke, man.

Think about the future, y'all.

Why don't you move on?

We do this then we done.

Who needs ya?

Yo.

I heard you're losing ground.

I'm on it, keep your nose out.

Hiya.

I told ya not to come here!

I wanted to see your work.

C'mon, let's go.

What's wrong?

Evening, Mr. Kida.

Isn't she pretty?

Sweetheart?

No, just a friend.

Let's go for dinner soon.

Yes.

Gotta Chat With Yuji.

- Mr. Kida.

- Eh?

Could you leave Yuji alone?

How come?

What's up with ya?

I'm sorry.

- Who is he'?

- My big client.

Let's go.

Go.

Don't.

Don't be stupid.

- Shut it.

- Huh?

I'm worried.

It's over now.

Promise?

Promise.

How about 100 meters?

- 100, huh?

- Yes.

- Equipment isn't cheap.

About how much?

- 5000 dollars.

- What?

Gotta work then.

- Okay, thank you.

- Good luck!

Thank you. I'll do my best.

Remember me?

I'm Kenta's friend.

He's in big trouble.

What?

It's hard to say but,

he's involved with a gang.

I'm going there to help him.

Can I come with you?

Okay.

This is bad, man.

It's Yuji. That gangster

kidnapped him.

- Oh sh*t.

- Calm down.

- Where's the others?

- There.
