The one who's smoking now

She's cute

A real find, too.

And mine?

Your girl isn't here

She's cuter, mind.

Not my taste, though

Really? I can't wait...

Watch out

They may see you

They liked it, eh?

Full house?

Not very...

...for an opening

It'll work. I'm sure

Do you think so?

Yes.

Remember the last stand?

Why are you

so pessimistic these days?

Don't you worry

And mark my words

I'm sure

Where do you go after that scene?

I climb down the mountain

And after climbing down?

Don't you see?

I come straight to you

No kidding

I'm not kidding at all

Here he comes

Welcome

- Hello

- Come in here

It's hot, eh? It's sticky

Where's my girl?

Don't worry. She'll come

Come to see the Master?

He's gone out

Let's have a drink

Hurry Yae, your man's impatient

Hello, darling. How's the big boy?

- This one?

- Your taste

Just joking

No good?

- Stop joking

- What are you talking about?

Look at me

I'm freezing to death

Have a drink, then

You're awfully reliable, Kichi

Nice man

How?

You son of a...

I'm on the spot. Am I sad?

- Why so sad?

- Shut up

- My mama's dead

- Really?

I'm catching a chill

Get warmed up

- Welcome

- Hi

Doing your stuff?

Hi, come in

What's your name?

Katsuko

Cute name

A real find, Senta.

Have a good time

I'll be seeing you

- So long

- So long

Do come again

Senta

Hey, Senta. Brace up

"Though all the world betrays me"

Give me sake. Hurry!

Oh, you big hunk

More sake sold, Master

All right

Afternoon

- Hello

- Where's your dad?

He's out now

Out? It's hot, eh?

Did you come to see him?

Well, not exactly

I came to see you

Cad!

I'm serious

Just feel how my heart is thumping

Mama! Mama!

What is it?

What happened?

What do you want?

I wonder if I can have

my face shaved

Aiko, go inside

Come over here

OK:

I'm afraid I haven't much beard yet

I may not need a shaving

I think not

Sit down

Thank you

They don't bite at all, Uncle

Be patient. Take your time

You'll get sunstroke.

Put this on your head

I'm OK

I think you overdid it

I'm afraid your performance

was too hammy

Nonsense

It was all right

But that character

is unrealistic, isn't it?

What's that?

It's too unreal

Don't be silly

He's a man of old times

You don't understand.

A fossil

What are you talking about,

wise guy?

My audience likes my performance...

...whether it's hammy or not

You lack progressive spirit

Stop talking about the theatre

Look...

...I've lost my bait again

I hear you want to go to college?

Yes

Nothing better than studying

But your mother will be lonely

Doesn't matter

It does.

Imagine how she'd feel

Think of her

She approves of it...

...so it doesn't matter

Yes, it does
