I need.

Can you show me a picture

of that?

- We have a copy of...

- We'll give it to you, yeah.

Yeah, yeah,

let's go take a look.

But it's only one event.

But this one was for a university,

and traveled several universities.

Noriko, I like this one.

I'd prefer this one.

Actually, that one is no good because

actually, it doesn't belong to us.

- Oh.

- Because his friend...

- Ushio gave him that one.

- Oh, okay.

And he promised us,

he won't sell it.

But there--

maybe we can work it out.

We have to be sure

that Ushio and Noriko benefit.

- Exactly. No, no, that's--

- Actually...

Ushio was kind of drunk,

so he promised it to him.

- But we can work this out.

- I mean, it's all-- we can negotiate this.

- But I thought, you know,

- the other one, is more easy.

- No, no, no, arigato, arigato.

No, I appreciate that.

No, I appreciate that.

Okay, so I need to do something.

It's gonna take some time.

I mean, I'm sorry.

You've already been

so patient with me.

It's just, you know,

we're just...

I'm doing a start-up.

Ready?

One. Two. Three.

Yahoo!

It was only six months after I met Ushio

when I got pregnant.

Our baby was born,

and Ushio was an alcoholic.

Ushio and I had many fights

caused by his drinking.

With no time to do my artwork,

I lost my joy of painting.

I should've married a guy

who made a secure living

and would take responsibility

for what he did.

Oh, hello, son. Welcome.

Noriko, I can't find

the sweet red bean jelly.

I don't know about it.

You put it on the chair, right?

Ah, it fell down here.

Found it!

Youkan!

Alex, do you want some Youkan?

Uh, I'm okay.

- Alex, you are already drunk.

- No, not at all.

You smell.

Yeah, you smell.

I can give you water.

Hey.

What are you looking for?

- Can I have a little bit?

- No, no, no.

You've had enough.

No, no, no...

That's too much.

Why can't you just drink water?

- Is that the expensive wine?

- It's not especially expensive but...

- It's $13.

- Oh, $13.

But I can't enjoy drinking together

because he guzzles it up like water.

- Like water.

- Like water.

He was getting better.

So I was giving him one glass a day.

He was doing better...

We have to take all the alcohol with us.

That's what we have to do.

Or else Alex will hunt them down.

This happened because you spoiled him.

I want you to take responsibility.
