You're absolutely right.

I can't count the number of times

that I wanted to divorce him.

But divorcing him won't change a thing,

so long as I let it bother me.

If he told me he wanted to marry

another woman, I'd happily oblige him.

That's why I opened this restaurant.

It gives me something else

to occupy my mind.

You must love him very much.

Married couples are linked by fate.

Don't you feel any responsibility...

for your husband's actions?

I wish someone would kill him.

I don't think you can count on him

suddenly dropping dead from the flu.

It's open. Here is fine.

Have a seat.

I don't have much time,

so I'll be frank.

I'm sorry for this,

I know you're busy.

No worries. What are you going

to be frank about? Have one.

Well... I'm going on six years

in this department.

Three years in production.

You want a raise?

No... actually, yes,

but that's not it.

I want to be an independent producer

and I've studied very hard.

You're getting married?

- I can't work like this anymore.

It might not be appropriate to speak to

the bureau chief about this,

but I didn't know who else to turn to.

If there's a squabble in the editing

department, it's my responsibility.

It's not a squabble.

I'm the only one who's upset.

Is this about someone in particular?

A man? A woman?

It's a man.

Is it love?

No, I'm not interested in him.

And yet he's on your mind.

Just for now...

could you rearrange my duties?

Is it Kaze?

- Will you?

So... do you think women

are cut out for the TV business?

Are you firing me?

- No.

Don't be so defensive.

There are always men in a TV studio who

aren't very serious.

Are you talking about Kaze?

I'm not naming names.

There are a lot of them.

That's just how it is.

Say what you like,

but women are better off at home.

What happens when women marry men

who work at TV studios?

Men working at TV studios

don't elect to be husbands.

The way it works today...

people try to work to their

full potential, despite limited time.

As everyone says...

it sounds good on paper.

I don't think it's a delusion.

Women eventually get married

and have children.

Childbirth confirms the power women

already know they have.

Men are tragic.

We can't give birth.

We don't know how to raise children.

That's why we identify with our work.

Are you a prisoner of your job?

In TV, there's no end,

only a series of climaxes.

When you finish a project,

there's no time to reflect on the results.

It's actually difficult and awful.

I admit I have methods to cope.

But it sure is hard to do this job

and retain your humanity.

Chief... is the bureau chief here?

Yeah!

- Chief!

What?

There you are.
