It's unforgivable.

In a way...

...it reminds me how you were

when they brought you here.

How could they refuse

when you were so serious.

All the memories of you

came flooding back.

It was frightening.

I have to finish up now.

Just another minute.

Well?

All right, you can take her.

No, hold on.

Just another minute.

Why putting it off?

I think it's better that

I take her now.

We'll take good care of her here.

If I'd known this would happen, I wouldn't

have asked you to bring her here.

It's just coincidence...

that she became Hiroshi's subject.

Makes no diff erence you asked or not.

I can't change the rules.

I didn't want to die

Where do I go?

I'm scared.

I'm scared to be alone.

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

I won't leave you.

I'll always be by your side.

I won't leave you alone.

This is reality.

This is real.

I'm going to stay here.

And we'll have a baby.

Yes!

Yeah!

Ryoko?

Hey!

Our 4-month dissection program

is now over.

Check that bones and organs

have been replaced.

Check the kidneys are on

the correct side.

Put the sash next to the hands.

The hose and sandals go by the f eet.

The triangular cloth and the headdress

go by the head.

Drape the kimono over the body.

Place the cane next to the right hand.

The laying out is now complete.

Lay the flowers inside.

Now place the lid on the coffin.

I'll give out the coffin labels now.

Group 1, number 796.

Mr. Satoru Kamata.

Group 2, number 797.

Ms. Tamae Sugawara.

Group 3, number 798.

Mr. Shuji Kinuta.

Group 4, number 799.

Ms. Ryoko Ohyama.

We will now close our eyes

and pay our last respects.

The coffins will be tak en now.

Listen f or your number carefully.

There must be no mistak es.

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

There is still some time.

Please wait in the reception room.

Let me take you to the room.

Let's move.

This way, please.

We're ready, Mr. Ohyama.

Okay.

It's time.

Is Hiroshi here?

How's his memory?

Much better.

So will he be giving up medicine?

We told him it's his own decision.

And he said...

he'll continue.

It's time.

It is time to lay the body to rest.

It's okay.

You have to be brave.

It is time to part.

Let us pray.

You know, I often thlnk...

If you could see some part of your Ilf e

again, years after you die...

...which part would you choose?

The last images of the last Martian robot.

Manklnd's flnal memory.

You stlll have so long to live,

so you can't answer properly.

As for me...

Ah, it smells wonderful.
