I'm responsible for bringing you

into that worthless place.

Such insects as ourselves

are not worthy of life.

You can dispose of this worthless place.

Of my blood, my sweat and tears.

You can crush us as you please.

Humbly I'm asking you.

I'm so sorry.

I don't want to commit seppuku.

Well.

Please stand up.

'We' should apologize.

For how much did you scam them?

Do not smear people's reputation.

I have a duty to

this world and to people.

There's a name for your kind

of scam, imposture.

I'm really exorcising the spirits.

You can't fool me, grandma.

Don't call me grandma,

they call me Spiritual Guide.

You fool no one with this.

Or is it because the world

in its vastness

simply escapes your understanding.

Deep down you know I tell the truth.

You give me a break, old hag.

It's water.

No way.

Our real name is not Sakurakoji.

But Kobayashi, in fact.

I'm retired.

I used to be a desk employee.

What?

We met in the singing club

in our university.

We've been married 40 years.

Our daily life is very common.

We're an ordinary couple.

Please don't get mad.

My wife has been diagnosed

with cancer 10 months ago.

She's been treated in bed

all that time.

I wasn't improving

and often lost hope.

Until my husband

found a new treatment.

And then

a miracle happened.

The tumors vanished.

Goodness.

For just one day.

I asked what whim

she'd like to fulfill.

I said let's take our savings

and live the big life.

Let it be sumptuous.

I thought of Audrey Hepburn

in 'Roman Holiday'.

I wanted

I wanted to live the day of a princess.

Really, I had no idea

it would go that far.

We apologize.

Forgive us.

So that's what it was.

You scared us, Mr. Kobayashi.

You did cause a commotion here.

I guess we'll just have

to forgive you

since you did it to please Madam.

Chauffeur, we apologize to you too.

You don't fool me

I can see you're aristocrats.

What?

Simple servants like us

have an instinct.

I know you lied to them.

Oh no, we didn't lie.

It's fine.

Your stratagem was such a relief

for these simple people.

It was so graceful of you.

I'm telling you we didn't lie.

I know you're his excellency Sakurakoji.

That's the truth.

But it's a lie.

Absolutely, it's a lie.

I get it. So, where

do I drive you next?

Come on get out of the kitchen.

She's gonna die.

10

Please Doctor come out.

She means business.

You're a black belt.

9

You're a black belt?

What's a black belt

to do against a gun.

Alright it's a Tokarev,

only six rounds.

I have a friend in the police.

She fired 5 times, there's one left.

5

4

What are you doing?

Me, you mean?

I'm telling the office I'll be late.

Gather all the phones.
