Synopsis: Family and friends of the late Shuzo Miwa have gathered for his annual memorial service, this one marking the seventh anniversary of his passing. Three of his long time friends - married Shuzo Taguchi, married Soichi Mamiya, and widowed Seiichiro Hirayama - have long known and admitted to each other that they have always been attracted to his widow, Akiko Miwa, who they believe has gotten even more beautiful as she has matured. The three friends take it upon themselves to find a husband for the Miwa's now twenty-four year old daughter, Ayako Miwa, who they believe as beautiful as her mother, and who, as a pure innocent, deserves a good husband. Their self-appointed task is despite them knowing that Ayako does not want them to do so. She doesn't want to get married, at least not yet, as she struggles with her traditional sensibilities in post-war modern Japan. Her first priority as she sees it is to take care of her widowed mother, who would be alone if she were to get married. The diff

09:49,380 -- 00:09:52,019

You must have paid him well.

75

00:
09:52,140 -- 00:09:55,132

l'm not that generous.

76

00:
09:57,420 -- 00:10:02,619

We had a nice, cool day today.

The day of the funeral was so hot.

77

00:
10:02,740 -- 00:10:06,449

lt was really hot. l remember.

l was wearing a winter coat.

78

00:
10:07,300 -- 00:10:09,495

How old were you, Ayako?

79

00:
10:10,300 -- 00:10:11,779

l was 18.

80

00:
10:11,940 -- 00:10:14,170

-And now?

-Twenty-four.

81

00:
10:14,300 -- 00:10:16,939

That's a suitable age to get married, isn't it?

82

00:
10:17,100 -- 00:10:20,376

Yes. Please tell us if you know someone

who would be good for her.

83

00:
10:20,860 -- 00:10:24,296

That shouldn't be too hard.

Ayako is so beautiful.

84

00:
10:24,900 -- 00:10:28,131

What's your type? Don't be shy.

85

00:
10:29,700 -- 00:10:31,258

Come on, tell us.

86

00:
10:32,940 -- 00:10:35,818

How do you feel about my type,

for example?

87

00:
10:35,940 -- 00:10:36,895

l like it.

88

00:
10:37,980 -- 00:10:39,379

Then how about me?

89

00:
10:39,860 -- 00:10:41,418

l like your type, too.

90

00:
10:42,260 -- 00:10:47,050

l'm confused. They're so different.

91

00:
10:48,620 -- 00:10:49,973

What do you think of me?

92

00:
10:50,980 -- 00:10:52,049

l like you, too.

93

00:
10:52,180 -- 00:10:55,217

-She only said ''you, too''. You're out.

-l'm out?

94

00:
10:55,340 -- 00:10:56,898

You shouldn't have asked.

95

00:
10:58,620 -- 00:11:00,895

lt was a bad question to ask her.

96

00:
11:01,220 -- 00:11:05,338

Seriously, though,

l might know someone suitable.

97

00:
11:05,460 -- 00:11:08,133

-Oh, please help us.

-You know somebody?

98

00:
11:08,260 -- 00:11:12,776

Yes. Ayako, are you really interested

in marriage?

99

00:
11:15,500 -- 00:11:17,650

Of course you should get married soon.

100

00:
11:18,020 -- 00:11:21,296

How old were you when you married Miwa?

101

00:
11:21,580 -- 00:11:23,411

l was 20.

102

00:
11:23,580 -- 00:11:26,777

See, Ayako? You should marry soon.

103

00:
11:27,420 -- 00:11:30,617

l think so, too.

104

00:
11:30,780 -- 00:11:35,729

l know a nice young man, Ayako.

He's 29, l believe.

105

00:
11:36,260 -- 00:11:39,536

He graduated from the University of Tokyo

and now works for the Obayashi Group.

106

00:
11:39,660 -- 00:11:40,934

He's a fascinating man.

107

00:
11:42,060 -- 00:11:43,698

That sounds too good for us.

108

00:
11:45,540 -- 00:11:47,178

l think he'd be perfect for her.

109

00:
11:47,620 -- 00:11:50,657

-Then please introduce us to him.

-Sure.

110

00:
11:53,340 -- 00:11:55,649

Ayako, it's time for us to go.

111

00:
11:56,500 -- 00:11:58,968

Please excuse us.

112
