Hallelujah, sakes alive

Damn, it's good to be alive

She's comin' over to my home

Ring-a-ding-ding on my telephone

First thing she'll be eatin'

Is some of my homestyle cookin'

I wanna do up

Some real heart cookin'

She's gonna eat her fill

Gotta scrub the pans

To make the grub

Rub-a-dub-dub

In the foamin' suds

Around and around and

Wash 'em clean

Got to clean 'em up

So she can eat up

I know she wants to eat

My homestyle cookin'

I know she wants to eat

My homestyle cookin'

I want her to eat

My homestyle cookin'

I want her to eat

I want her to eat

I want her to eat

I want her to eat

I want her to eat

I want her to eat

I've gotta set her on fire

I've got to have her eat

Homestyle cookin'

Of my real heart

Homestyle cookin'

Of my real heart

Homestyle cookin'

Of my real heart

WILD BERRIES:

Hey

Hey

Oops, Mother

Wipe it up with this, Tomoko

Oh, thanks

- Any get on you?

- No

Take your sweat suit,

or you'll have to borrow one

from another teacher again

Sure, but not today

You have gym class Wednesdays

This is Wednesday

He's coming tonight, right?

Oops, that means morning assembly

What time is he coming?

About 6pm

Let me know if you're running late

Sure, sure

Tomoko's going

Dear

Off you go

Father, can I get you

a fresh bowl of warm soup?

No need to fuss over me

Oh, really?

What?

No, no, he just hasn't

paid the bill

I'll tell him

I can't talk, we're on the train

That cell phone

Sorry, I meant to turn it off

That was Mom for you, Dad

You forgot your lunch box

Aren't you even sorry?

She gets up early to fix it for you

It's your fault rushing off

My fault?

What to do for lunch...

Lucky you have school lunches

Mom tried your cell phone but

the service had been turned off

Don't they bill you electronically?

What?

How pathetic,

having your phone cut off

What do they say at work?

Well, it's not like

I leave the office much

Carry a cell and they'll chase

you down anywhere,

and usually over nothing

I'd like to get rid of it

You were so excited at first

Who asked you?

You're the weirdos,

always calling and sending emails

It's not right. World's going down

the drain, thanks to that crap

Oops, I forgot to answer

Kamata san

Cut it out, not on the train

Makes you look like a fool

I know

Um... You'll be on your

best behavior tonight, right?

What behavior? I'm just

supposed to show up, right?

That's what I mean,

you get so defensive

Right

Don't worry, I'll leave it to

the young guys and be home on time

Thank you

Kamata san knows how busy you are

Did you tell him...

about Grandpa?

Yeah, sort of

No point hiding it

It's nothing to be ashamed of

What about him?

Here, boy,

where'd you come from?

C'mon, good doggie

Hey, Cleo,

don't bite him, don't bite

No need to run

Good doggie, c'mere doggie

Oh, gosh, I'm so sorry

- You call him Cleo?

- Don't mess up his clothes

Not to worry

Cleo, there's a good doggie

Excuse me, I was wondering

Is Myofukuji Temple farther ahead?

You've already passed

Myofukuji Temple

You turn at the second corner

Oh, really? The man at the station

told me to keep walking straight

No, no, turn and it'll be on your left

Just past the corner

Thank you so much

There's a good doggie

Honey, my daughter-in-law's

coming to get me

Father, you're already here

Shoko san, I can't take it here

Hurry! Hurry!

I'm Shoko

No, everything's fine

I'll tell them all about it here

Don't you worry about a thing

She's coming to pick me up in

my truck so I'd better wait outside

Father, it's OK, OK,

just please calm down, calm down

She's a terrible driver,

so I'll have to drive home

But...

you've got to calm down!

Father

Father, open wide

Companies run by

a bunch of kids are so risky

I saw right through 'em

Clever, but that shoddy operation

of theirs gave me the creeps

Reminded me of door-to-door salesmen

I don't want anything to do with 'em

Well, the president apologizes

But he doesn't have any positions...

other than terminal maintenance

He was like, "You do know

your way around a computer?"

"Know my way?"

He can kiss my ass

It's difficult, you know

Akechi san, you're an old school engineer

By the time they've trained you

in the new system,

you'll be ready for retirement

So you can't expect to be

welcomed like a fresh

young employee, frankly

Let me ask you, Maeda

Just who was it who tossed out

a man of that age?

There's no point fixating on that

And what if I hadn't

just shut up and taken it?

If I'd sold the bosses'

dirty secrets to the media,

I could've made a bundle

There's no point going over...

I mean, here I am,

using my pull in Human Resources,

and doing everything I can for you

Now there's a spin for you

I'm the one who fixed it

with the president

so you could stay snug-as-a-bug in

Human Resources after R&D went bust

You're sitting pretty

and I'm a tramp

Always sneaking around

You ashamed to be seen with me?

In any case...

Please try this place next

They're supposed to be one of our

more generous subcontractors

I've got to go, but I'll be back in touch

when there's an interview lined up

Here, Akechi san

Oh, please, Maeda, Maeda

Masuda always says he'll

come early but he never does

So Nakatani san always cleans out

that fish tank by herself

Masuda always lies,

and I feel sorry for Nakatani san

getting stuck with all the work
