And he's fanning it again?
I thought he was, but he's not there
You must have scolded him real hard
He's missing all morning
when he woke up.
Then, his bed was all put away
and he's not around
Where the devil did he go?
It's after 2 o' clock, isn't it?
Tane, I'm afraid he won't
come back at all
This is a case of '"Piss-and-Run'"
You think so? I wonder where he went
Where? He has no place to go anyway
He'll be like an alley-cat
Silly kid, he'll get hungry
Don't worry, he'll live on garbage
here and there
Tane, it's good riddance for you
The devil's gone
You think so?
You nagged him again
I didn't do that today
I mean, yesterday
Well, I scolded him a little yesterday
About dry persimmons
he was so stubborn
He never spoke
Just tears came out of him.
What could he say? He didn't eat them
That's it. But he was tough
He kept on glaring at me
like a stubborn old mule
He was so stubborn that I got real mad,
So I glared at him and screamed
Poor boy
Then, the guy over there said
he took them
I guess I was a little too hard on the boy
And when you're mad
your face looks horrible
Too much for any kid
the way you look.
Your glaring at him must have done it
That's right. I did it too much
but I apologized
Come to think of it, I wet the bed
at that age, too
I used to do that too
Anyway, I feel sorry for him
You know I think a boy like him
All the great men weren't all that bright
when they were little
That's what they say
And he was gathering nails
for a heartless father,
Picking up all the butts
he does have a gentle heart
I say he was some kid, yes
he sure was
I guess you lost a treasure
He's precious to you, isn't he?
You were fond of him, weren't you?
Sure you were
You like him very much already
Do you think so?
Sure, it's so obvious
Is that right? Hmmm
Why Humm, now?
I didn't realize it
That's right, that's the way it is
Already affection is being built
between you two
Like a dog, it starts to wag its tail
before you know it
It's the same thing
but you can't see the tails,
But both of you are wagging tails
before you are know it
The boy's tail is small and slender,
Your tail is fat and long, like a bulldog
Oh, stop it. I'll hit you
I hope a kind person picks him up
What now?
I think the boy gave them to me
It's dangerous here
I'll come again. Bye
Good-bye
What will you do if the boy
comes back? Treat me?
Tane, will you look after
him again, please?
And don't scold him so much
He's so afraid of you
he wet his bed again.
You found him?
Where was he?
At Kudan, where I first found him
He's scared of getting scolded by you
and has no place to go.
I think he suddenly missed his father
I couldn't help but feel sorry for him
Will you let him stay again?
Alright
Don't scold him now
He's sorry, and he's outside
Take care of him
Here you are, thank you
I'll go home, too
Come on now, you must be hungry
aren't you?
You are hungry, aren't you? Now, eat it
Thank you
Sorry there's no rice. I ate your share
And I didn't cook any tonight
Tell me, do you like me?
Yes
You do? You can stay here with me
Will you be my son? Eh? You will?
Yes
Eat this one, leave the burnt one
Eat a lot, you can eat all of it
Tell me, what is it like?
It's great, I never felt so good in my life
You call it, maternal love
You look like a grandma
nursing a grandchild
Stop that. I'll hit you
Look, that cap is too big
It fell off 3 times now
Don't worry, his head will
grow to fit it soon
By the time he goes to school
it'll fit him
Son,
want me to carry the cap?
Auntie, did we see badgers?
We saw them
The cage next to the rabbits
When do the badgers change shape?
Only at midnight
Can we stay here till midnight?
No, we're going to a photo studio
Why don't you join us?
It's bad luck with 3 in a picture
That's superstition
Right, photographer?
Yes, please
I'll be in the center
Please, it's alright
No, I don't like pictures
Come on, you'll only look good
next to me
No, I won't
Don't be modest
We look alright?
The boy should have got a haircut
But his nose is running all the time
so I didn't take him
The cap's too big
Is that right? Yes, it is
Shall I hold it? Alright?
Yes, it's better
Is it?
Are you ready?
Now, don't move, shut your mouth
Your nose's clean? Now
you just look at the ball
Mother, quiet please
Close your mouth, please
Here we go
Now. Thank you
How did I look?
Like a lady
I put on my best look. Did I look funny?
Like what?
That thing we saw at the zoo
Why, you... I'll hit you
You sure your nose was clean?
Didn't we have fun?
Yes
The tempura was good, wasn't it?
Yes
Want to take it off?
Yes
Isn't she a nice lady
buying you this nice sweater?
Yes
Wear it carefully
You'll wear this to school too
Yes
Aren't you tired now?
No
I'm exhausted
Would you hit my shoulders
like a good boy?
Yes
A little lower. Yes
Get your hair cut tomorrow
Yes
You'll be a good boy
when you stop wetting the bed
You sure are a good boy
you'll get over it soon
Yes
Excuse me
Who is it? Go and see
Yes. It's Dad!
I'm his father
You are too kind to look after him
Thank you very much
Not at all
I came to Tokyo on the 9th with him
And I lost him at Kudan
I looked for him all over
Finally I went to Chigasaki today
hoping he was there
And I was told that you had him
That's nothing, but you must
have been worried
Yes, you see, we only have each other
I even went to Hachioji
where we lost our house
Is that so? You had a hard time
Aren't you glad your dad
found you here?
Hey, say thank you to the lady
I'm sorry he has no manners
Thank you very much for everything
That's alright
Say thank you to her
and we must leave
Yes
A token of my thanks
I bought them at Chigasaki
You didn't have to do this
It's nothing, just potatoes
Thank you very much
Wait a minute
This is for the boy
Is it alright?
Please
Thank you
It's very kind of you to do this...
Thank you
Not at all. Take care now
Yes
Son, come to see me with your Dad
once in a while
Be sure you come back here, alright?
Thank you very much
Say Good-bye to Auntie
Good-bye, Auntie
Don't lose your Dad again
Yes
Good-bye
Good-bye
So, his father came, eh?
I'm glad he found him
You can sleep peacefully now
So, he was lost, not deserted
Yes
I see. Anyway, I'm glad it came
to a happy ending
What's this? You don't have to cry
You didn't like the kid to begin with
Still you miss him?
I'm not crying because I'm sad
Just think, how happy he is now
You see, he got lost just as he said
real hardhearted man
But I was wrong, he's a real nice father
He was looking for him
all over the place
Now, he found his son
and they can live together.
Think how happy they are...
