Tokyo Mansions

This businessman who was

posted abroad for five years...

...rented out his place.

But h's coming back only

after a year.

And that's why you had to move out?

You said you were'nt coming

till mid-January after things settle down.

No, he's got nothing

to do with me.

The person living

in his place...

...was going to take over

my apartment when l left...

...so he came and asked

if l'd move out early.

Sounds complicated.

lt does?

Well, there's the businessman,

the other person, and me.

The businessman came back,

the other person had to move...

...and now, l have to move

l was the last of

three billiard balls.

Sorry, bad metaphor.

No, l understand now.

OUT. Yeah?

You're the victim.

Exactly! l've had to give up

my whole Christmas!

And now l have to

give up mine!

Sorry.

Just kidding. But if l'd known

l would've cleaned the place.

Don't worry. l'll do that.

lt's pretty dusty...

You're very generaus, though.

l'd've told them to forget about it

and that'd be it.

l guess l am generous.

And there's lots of people

who'll take advantage of that!

Especially with

a nice young student like you.

Maybe so, but...

...Let's not discuss it.

Actually, l am upset.

Then you've got to

speak up right away!

'Piss off!'...you tell them.

Oh, hello...keep up

the good work!

'Piss off.'

Yes?

Huh? When did you move in?

Uh...today.

You just moved in?

So you don't subscribe to a paper yet.

l don't read the papers.

You're a student, aren't you?

You should read one every day!

l watch the news on TV.

No, you've got to read the news!

Try it out for a month.

No, thanks.

Hey!

Yes?

Coming!

Public TV Fee collection.

You just moved in?

l don't have a TV.

Everyone has a TV.

Some people don't.

You don't watch the news?

l read the paper.

OK, the dramas...at least

you watch the prime-time ones.

No, l don't.

Variety shows?

All young people watch them.

Yeah, on the other channels.

So you do have a TV!

l just moved in. l'll be buying

one soon. Come back then.

Don't give me that!

Sorry. l'm busy.

Hey!

Damn!

Do you know what day it is?

And do you know

what day that is?

Christ's birthday.

Oh, you know that...so you're

interested in religion?

No!

eel. Do you know what that is?

No, thanks!

Huh?

Wait a minute!

Hey! You in there!

And you? What's your name?

My name? lchiro Suzuki.

Oh.

OK. Now that we're formally introduced,

Would you please get out of here?

Not too bright, are you.

l'll explain so even you

can understand.

We're in trouble.

You know why?

No.

Because you are here.

And your stuff.

That, too.

So if you and your stuff disappear.
