Wouldn't know.
By the way, you're taking up
an awful lot of space
Three mats' worth for bedtime
and taking over the common room.
I'm raising your rent by 10 pennies.
Why not just strangle me?
Because I wouldn't get
Why not live a long life
and enjoy yourself?
Wanna fight?
Hey! Ouch!
Don't scare me.
I settled your wife in the sunlight.
Bundled her up nice and cozy.
You're a kind man.
You did a good thing.
"A life of kindness
will someday be rewarded."
When, I'd like to know?
In the next world.
I say I want my rewards
right here and now.
Cut my debts in half.
Surely you jest.
Listen here.
Human kindness can't be bought
for pennies or silver.
Kindness is kindness.
Pennies and silver are pennies and silver.
Can't mix the wheat with the chaff.
You half-dead, greedy bastard!
Everybody runs off at the sight of me.
You'd drive away the devil himself.
Helluva greeting.
But you know,
I consider all of you my children.
A landlord is just like a parent.
Just like the devil.
Hey, by the way,
is Sutekichi in?
See for yourself.
Sutekichi, hey.
Who's that?
It's me.
What do you want?
Can I open the door?
Might as well open Pandora's box.
What the hell's
that supposed to mean?
- What did you say?
- Just talking to myself.
Hey.
Open up.
Why won't you open up?
Hey.
Open up!
Damn it.
What a hullabaloo.
What is it?
Oh, no.
Nothing, really.
Did you bring my money?
Money? What money?
Three silver coins.
Payment for last night's merchandise.
Last night's merchandise?
No use bluffing.
The coral hairpin
in the gold lacquer box,
the tortoiseshell comb and pins.
Sold 'em to you last night
for five silver coins.
You already gave me two.
I want the other three.
I know I'm a thief.
That makes you my fence.
What? I never...
Shut up! Get out!
You bastard!
And come back with the cash!
And the curtain falls.
Truly entertaining.
What the hell did he want?
What else?
Chasing after his old lady.
But listen...
why don't you just get rid of him?
Kill him and I'm banished for sure.
No, you just finesse the details,
then take Osugi as your wife
and settle down as the landlord here.
That's a helluva pretty picture.
You plan to impose
on my good nature
and drink me out of house and home.
Greedy bastard.
Woke me up from a sound sleep.
I was fishing,
and I'd just hooked
this monster snapper.
Truly a dream fish.
I was just about to land that fish.
That's no snapper.
That's Osugi.
Who asked you?
Scram, the b*tch and the lot of you.
It's cold as hell out there.
