- What do we do?
- Not much we can do.
- Will we make it?
- We'll most likely miss the connection.
There's no way
Might as well go aboard
and get some sleep.
Good idea.
UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

There's a bus to Hashimoto
for those who can't afford to wait.
That's a dangerous road,
fit only for trucks.
It's narrow,
with cliffs on both sides.
It was in the newspaper,
a truck went over the side.
Is it that dangerous?
The passengers inside
Prices are high, taxes too.
It's the nation's working class
who suffers the most.
That causes family suicides and
the brutal murders we've seen recently.
It's no time for railways
How can you justify this?
Railway unions oppose
But your pay demands
are the main cause.
Yes, but...
- What are we doing stuck here?
- The railways are a joke!
How about free rooms
at the Railway Hotel?
Station Master!
We'll be here for a while, sit down.
Miss, can you quieten down?
I have to be at a shareholder's meeting
in 48 hours.
Do you even know
what a shareholder's meeting is?
My husband's a company director.
Station Master...
- What's wrong?
- Excuse me.
Where's the bus?
It's been over an hour.
- What are your plans?
- You don't expect us to sleep here?
Do you feel ill?
We have to be in Tokyo
by tomorrow evening.
Excuse me.
Our student meeting is essential
for the future of Japan.
As a salesman, every second we're late,
I lose money.
I got a telegram
that my daughter is very ill.
Can you check
if the bus has left yet?
It's no lie. Here's the telegram.
No, I'll go call them.
This Station Master is useless.
I'll personally report his conduct.
my husband's old classmate.
Hey, you handle this.
You're friends
with the head of the railway?
We're doing our very best here.
Please pass on my regards.
back at school.
But he's done well.
Get some tea!
Please come inside.
Sit yourselves down here.
Take a long one.
The bus to Hashimoto is now arriving.
Please form an orderly line.
Tomio, hurry up. Get in line.
Hurry up, will you?
No need to join them,
I've reserved your seats.
Tomio! Where are you?
You're late. ls the bus alright?
It's old, like me.
It's got a mind of its own.
We've got a lot of urgent passengers
who need to go now.
They have to connect
with the midday train to Tokyo.
It's an old bus,
I can't guarantee anything.
Will it make it or not?
You country people are so slow
it makes me mad.
What's with these city folks
Do a good job, driver.
I can't be late.
I have an important exam in Tokyo.
What exam?
Oh, to be young again.
- A dressmaking or a typing school?
- Nothing like that.
University?
Not that, either.
Look.
FILM STUDIO AUDITIONS
NEW TALENT EXAM:
Is it fixed?
All aboard.
What now?
Attention please, everyone!
Please quieten down and listen.
We've just had bad news
from the police department.
A regional bank was robbed
yesterday of 20 million yen.
Two men are still on the loose.
They are believed to be in this area,
so be aware.
Both are wearing Mackintosh raincoats,
one has a pistol.
That's frightening, that is.
Maybe they're hiding up in the hills?
