It's fine, you should

marry someone like him

What is it?

I don't satisfy you?

No, of course you satisfy me

I'm the one that doesn't

satisfy you

I bet you think you got stuck

with the short end of the stick

If you stay with the likes of me,

nothing good will come of it

Yo!

Come right in!

Please, come in

One BBQ pork ramen

Me, too

Fried rice for me

That was tasty, thanks!

Half a fried rice

And 3 fired dumplings

Another fried rice

Yes

And half a rice

Open your eyes, Daddy!

You promised to take us

to the hot springs!

We'll go

I'm here to see him,

representing the company

But his sudden downturn yesterday

has upset his family

Only his family is allowed

How long do I have to wait?

When he improves

Will he improve?

I don't think he will improve

I'll handle this

You're Mutsushima san?

My brother told me about you,

right before he

lost consciousness

My brother and I

didn't have secrets

I think he just had to tell

someone about you

But I don't think

my sister-in-law

or my nieces need to find out

What is this?

It's, it's from my brother

In case he never

saw you again

The last train will depart

from Track #1

Are you OK?

I think that was the last train

Are you OK

I'm sorry, I'm sorry

I'm fine, fine

Hey!

It's you, Master!

Hey, I went to your place today...

What the hell happened

It was all burned to a crisp

What happened?

You came?

With Tonoike san?

Who?

Section Chief Tonoike

Are you OK?

I'm closing the station

I'm sorry

Oh, hey, hey...

Why? Why?

Oops, I'm sorry

I'm sorry, sh*t

I'm sorry, what the...

Say, is Kan with you?

Oh, I see

He seems to have wandered off

Sorry

No, he's not

Will you be able to

open the place back up?

No, I'm not so sure, honestly

How's your wife?

Oh, she's all get-up-and-go

She's working a part-time job,

never complaining

Wives are so amazing

They sure are

I can't stand watching her

I think it's now or never

She's not a beauty queen,

but she could still grab

another chance at life

If I were alone, I could

screw up and die in a ditch

But if I'm with her,

I'd just feel,

you know, sorry for her

I'm sorry...

I don't think she'll buy it

Because

no woman can bear

to suddenly have her lover

die on her

Hey Ichizawa san

Hand me my handbag

Yeah

The inside pocket

Why don't you take it?

What...

What is this?

Consolation money

So fast!

No, no, no, no, it's not right

I can't accept this, no way!

OK, OK, then,

can I ask you another favor?

Ouch

Thanks

You OK?

I'm fine, fine

You done?

I'm done

Good luck with your new place

Are you sure?

I trust you

I'll pay you back

My best to your wife

I swear I'll pay you back
