W's Tragedy Page #5

---

What chaos?

We just want to know

why use Mita who has caused a scandal

There are many other apprentices

It's because she is very good

As a director

as long as an actor answers

my requirements

and gives a good performance

nothing else matters

Isn't that irresponsible?

Miss Mita, how did Mr. Douhara die?

Was it during sex?

Miss Mita, when and how

did you meet Mr. Douhara?

Just about a year ago

I read from magazines he is

very interested in drama and culture

and it was at that time

when we were preparing for performance

that I boldly approached him

never expecting he'd support me

- It was at that time...

- That means

Mr. Douhara is your provider?

What do you mean?

Such as how much does he pay you

each month?

That is to say... you are his mistress

No

I never accepted money from him

He only bought tickets

or bought me clothes

- or bought me meals

- Miss Mita

did he give you pocket money regularly?

Once

Twice

This is what a provider means

No, I...

I loved him very much

How could you?

There's a vast age difference

between you

could you really love someone

who is your father's age?

I fell in love with him

Did the thought of marriage ever arise?

No

A 20 year old girl would want to

marry someone she loves

That's only natural

Are you like that?

He has a wife

Didn't you insist for his divorce?

Have you never thought about it?

No

This would be cruel to his wife

But... he is a busy man

and I am an apprentice who needed

to practice acting and dancing

we met occasionally

Being together a few hours

was enough for me

She's really his mistress...

all that talk

You can say

what you like

or say I am the lover

Regardless

what you say about my relationship

with him

doesn't affect me

I can't help it

But

I really loved him

If it's Dutch treat

then the clothes have to be

returned to him too

There's no time for other work

and there simply isn't enough money

for sustenance

but had I not received his money

would you then admit

this was a love affair?

However

once when we went to the movies

using my money to buy fruit juice

and hamburger

he ate heartily

That's it for now, folks

Thank you

Don't go

I said stop

Let me go

What's up?

I saw it on TV

What happened?

Don't sulk

Sorry

Apology is no use

I have nothing to explain

Explain?

Lie or whatever

explain to me

I can't

You are low down and dirty

- You hate me

- Damn

Don't slap me in the face

don't forget I am a star

I don't like stars

I want that someone who dreams

innocently of being a star

But I am a star

who has already given up acting

Why do I fall for someone

who loves acting?

So you are your own friend

The spectacles are okay

but you don't look good in them

You must come to my performance

It's a must

Would you like to come to my place

in the evening?

No

Why?

I am in mourning

Mourning?

You are referring to Douhara

He replaced you with a younger girl

long ago

He died on me

When I watched the press conference

on TV

I felt disgusted

That girl really took him away

If I were younger

and cried at the conference

I would have cried in the limelight

That... is to say

after I moved him to the girl's room

I cried aloud alone

I said I was sorry

and said goodbye to him

Then I cried aloud alone

What a problem

so this is what it's about

That girl was willing to help you

It was her own choice

I didn't force her

She made the decision herself

You made her agree

it was like dangling a carrot

in front of a horse

and she couldn't resist it

An actor would do anything just to get

on stage

You're right

Let me ask you

What should Kikuchi

who has been replaced say?

You and Mita destroyed her

To get ahead someone must disappear

Rise and fall

I would not let myself fall

Miss Hatori, it's your turn

would you prepare to go on stage?

Just do as you did during rehearsal

No problem, you can do it

I am frightened

I might spoil the whole thing

I can't do it

Listen

how much have you sacrificed for today

When I first went on stage

I was so frightened and caused

my periods to come

but I continued to act

and paid no attention to it

The music will end soon

It's too late

Time for the opening

An actress

either makes it or doesn't

understand?

Thank you

Right, it's okay

Such a bother!

See you in Tokyo after the new year

- See you

- Thanks

Goodbye

Teacher, please sit here

How's Mako's thesis?

It's about the English author

Virginia Wolf

The thesis on Mrs. Dalloway

is not bad

Where is Mako?

Grandpa asked to see her in his room

to discuss something

I'll call her now

Mako, tea is ready

Mako

What happened to you, Mako?

I killed grandpa

One ticket please

The show almost over

- No problem

- Okay

Thanks

Never guessed

grandpa would have done

such kind of a thing

He must have lost his mind

So I picked up the knife

and told grandpa that I'll kill myself

if he kept going

Then I put the knife on my neck

He suddenly grabbed me

I stabbed his chest by mistake

Mother

Mako

I could only discuss with you

as I trust no one else

What do you think I should do?

Mako

what should I do?

Mother, I killed him

I killed grandpa

he tried to rape me so I killed him

That's the way it is

No, I cannot lose you

because... I killed him

No way

It's alright, mom

If grandpa wanted to molest me

I would have done the same thing

I killed him

I killed him

Mako

Mom, go on

No

You can't be like this

You can't

It's alright

If you are caught by the police

dad would be very sad

Go quickly

Mako

Mako

I am sorry

I am a murderer

Mako, the tea is ready

Mako

What happened to you?

I killed grandpa

I... killed grandpa

Shizuka, great acting

Way to go

Very good

Move faster

Okay

This is great

So that's it

This is an interesting theory

And then?

Is this all you want to say?

No

What follows is what I really want

to say

Remember what the police said

about the terms regarding

the loss of inheritance

There's one person who could

inherit the estate

However if the murderer is the spouse

or a direct relative, then that person

will lose the right

That is to say, Mako's direct relation

who is her aunty

will have no right to the inheritance

When I discovered this additional clause

I immediately thought of you

Your research focuses on genetics

and the quicker the chairman

who opposes your research dies

the quicker aunt would inherit

the estate

Since it'll be aunt's estate

it'll be as good as yours

You are the murderer?

You gave the murder weapon to aunt

who in turn gave it to Mako

Wasn't that the way it happened?

You saw through me

Unfortunately there's only the two of us

I:

Even if you killed me it'd be useless

My dear

So you

lied the other day

Honey

Tell me

Tell me the truth

Tell me you were careless

tell me it was an accident

Wasn't it?

It's done

Good

So it was a premeditated murder

Way to go

I never work without a plan

it's all planned

including marrying you
