The Quintessential Quintuplets (2019) s01e01 Episode Script

1
I was having a dream.
Please wake up, sir.
Your bride has finished her preparations.
I had a dream
of that dream-like day when I met you
Grilled Beef Set.
With no grilled beef.
Coming right up!
The cheapest dish in this cafeteria
is thought be rice, but that's wrong.
If you minus the 200 yen grilled beef
from the Grilled Beef Set,
you get miso soup and pickles
for the price of rice alone.
And free refills on water.
I love the student cafeteria!
Uesugi-kun's alone again.
How sad!
Huh?
That's not our uniform.
Wait, how did this happen?
I was here first.
The next seat over is open.
Move there!
This is where I sit every day.
You move over.
Oh, look. Uesugi-kun's eating with a girl.
Whoa, you serious?
Tsk. Those guys
Her face's all red.
Why push yourself so far?
Udon noodles, 250 yen.
Two shrimp tempura, 300 yen.
Squid tempura, 100 yen.
Chicken tempura, yam tempura,
plus pudding for dessert?!
Over 1,000 yen on lunch?
What are you, a celebrity?!
Well, do whatever you want.
Thank you for the food.
That's not very good manners.
You're studying while eating?
I'm reviewing my test.
Leave me alone.
Really, you must be in quite a tight spot.
What was your score?
Oh, hey!
Umm, Futaro Uesugi.
Your score is
A-A hundred?!
Isn't this
Gosh, am I embarrassed!
You showed me this on purpose!
I hate to admit it,
but studying is not my specialty,
so I do envy you.
Oh, yes!
Since we're sharing the same table,
why don't you teach me?
Thank you for the meal.
Huh?! You finished eating already?
Is that skimpy meal all you're going
to eat for lunch?
Would you like me to share some of mine?
You're the one who has too much actually.
You'll get fat.
Fa
I've never met anyone
so insensitive as you!
I won't give you anything now!
"Eating alone again? Call me!"
We'll be out of debt?
Dad's found a good part-time job!
Seems like a rich family
that recently moved
is looking for a tutor for their daughter.
A tutor?
An at-home, fun workplace.
Plus, it's five times the average pay!
Sounds like an under-the-table job to me.
They say people can stay alive even
with one kidney.
Y-You're telling me to do it?!
I'm just kidding!
But now we can eat
till our stomachs' full!
Right, Big Bro?
Oh.
So, what kind of person is this daughter?
She's in high school,
and I heard she's transferring
into the same school as you.
Her name was Nakano
I'm Itsuki Nakano. Nice to meet you.
I know this girl.
The transfer student's a chick!
She's pretty cute!
Isn't that Black Rose's uniform?
Seriously? She's super rich!
A transfer student and rich.
That means it's her.
H-Hi.
Hmph!
Nice to meet you.
Th-This is bad.
Here's your Grilled Beef Set
with no grilled beef!
I screwed up yesterday.
But if I get turned away by her,
my tutoring job will disappear.
I must find a way to redeem myself
I came, because I wanted
to share a table with you again.
Not only to share lunch,
but of course to study too.
Oh, my!
It's perfect!
I'm sorry for the wait.
She's eating with friends
I'm sorry, all the seats are full.
Hey, you! You're just going to walk away?
I bet you're after Itsuki-chan, huh?
I'm not exactly after her.
Oh, so it really is Itsuki-chan?!
Wow, what made you want to go for her?
Her serious character?
I bet you like that.
Oh yeah, I'll go call her for you.
Wait!
It's none of your business.
I'll take care of my own problems myself.
You say some pretty
manly stuff for a nerd!
Ask me, Big Sis Ichika,
for help if you have any trouble!
Since it sounds fun too!
"Big Sis"?
We're in the same grade
I think.
But what a problem.
I'll have to face her after school today
-as her new tutor.
-Uesugi-san.
-Before that
-Uesugi-san?
Uesugi-san!
You finally looked up.
Wh-Who are you?!
H-How do you know my name?
I'm glad you asked!
Did you drop this test
of one hundred points?
Or this test of zero points?
My test? Why do you?
That's because
At that moment
this happened.
And I noticed.
That's why!
So, which is it?
The right.
Wow, aren't you honest!
I'll give you both as a set!
I don't want both.
Whose zero-point test is this anyway?
It's mine.
I'm surprised you'd want to give this out!
My first impression of you was that
you're glum and probably a loner,
but I'll add that you're a genius too now!
That was fast!
How long are you going to follow me?!
I haven't gotten a thank you yet.
Huh?
You thank whoever picks up
something you dropped.
You're a genius,
but you don't even know that?
I happened to pick this up.
Now we're even.
Oh, I see! Thank you so much!
She just thanked me
I thought she'd be alone
on her way home, but
Itsuki, aren't you overeating?
Really?
This is only my second one.
You steamed bun monster!
Kn-Knock it off!
You'll never get a boyfriend!
That's none of your business!
Can't even get a moment to apologize.
Are you having fun by yourself?
Oh
S-Somewhat.
This is my hobby.
Hmm.
A hobby of staring at high school girls
A potential pervert.
Can you not report me, please?
And don't tell your friend, Itsuki-chan.
Fine.
But she's not my friend.
Huh?
Uhh
Is this it?
She's a straight-up rich girl.
I'm not mistaken right?
Erk!
What are you, a stalker?
If you need something, I'll hear it.
It's useless talking to you guys.
You're persistent.
I bet you don't get many girls.
Go on home!
Home? This is my home.
Oh, you serious? Sorry
Grilled Beef Set with no grilled beef.
Are you on a diet?
Huh?
Hey, you!
I knew it!
There she is!
This is my last chance to talk to her!
Please let me make it!
Ugh!
This is all her fault!
The stress of being thrown
by a stranger's mood!
Why I'm running drenched in sweat
in a place like this after school
Why I got caught by those weirdos
Everything!
Everything's
her fault.
Y-You're
What is it?
Do you need something from me?
Y-Yesterday
Huh? What?
Wait, why are you here anyway?
Yesterday, um, I-I'm
If you have no business
Oh, wait, wait!
What is it that you want?!
I have a tutor coming right now--
That's me.
What?
That tutor's me.
Shock!
I-I absolutely refuse!
I don't want to either!
I'm the one who wants to refuse!
But I can't give up here.
I was completely in the wrong yesterday.
I apologize.
Starting today,
I'm going to become your partner!
No, this can't be
Someone like this
is going to be our tutor?
"Our" tutor?
That stalker in front of our condo earlier
was super gross!
Huh?!
Hey, it's Mr. Honor Student.
That's the stalker!
Uesugi-san's a stalker?
You're jumping the gun.
W-Why are these guys here?
Because they all live here of course.
R-Really
You share a place together
with five friends from school?
At this moment,
my suddenly overloaded brain
worked at a speed past its limit
and came down to one answer.
A dream This must be a dream.
No. We are
quintuplet sisters.
I will be your tutor starting today.
My name's Futaro Uesugi.
Now, let's have fun studying
So, why?!
Why isn't anyone here?!
Yes, yes! I'm here!
Um.
Was it Yotsuba? The zero-pointer?
Can you make an angry face for a second?
Huh?
L-Like this?
So you guys really are quintuplets.
Wait, why are you here?
To take your lesson of course,
Uesugi-san!
Yotsuba
Can I hug you?
Now, let's go call everyone else!
The order of our rooms
from the closest are
Itsuki, me, Miku, Nino, and Ichika.
I have to start by gathering them first?
Don't worry!
Itsuki is a very responsible girl!
I'm sure she'll cooperate
unless there's a good reason not to.
No.
Why is it you, a classmate, to start with?
Aren't there any decent tutors
in this town?
What's with that?
You asked me to teach you yesterday!
I was confused.
Forget I ever did.
There's five of us,
so one will end up like this.
Miku is the smartest out of all of us.
Maybe you two will click?
No.
Why is it you, a classmate?
Aren't there any decent tutors--
Got it, heard that before!
L-Let's move on.
Nino is very good at socializing.
I'm sure she'll open up to you
M-Maybe she's not there?
D-Don't worry!
There's still Ichika left!
Ichika is
What's with that pause?
Please don't be surprised.
W-What is this room?!
A human being actually lives here?
Wish you wouldn't treat
someone's room
like undiscovered territory
Jeez, you've trashed the place again.
Who would've thought you were our tutor?
That's why you were after Itsuki-chan.
Yeah, whatever.
Now, let's get downstairs.
Oh, stop, stop!
I'm not wearing anything,
so it's a bit embarrassing.
W-Why?!
Yotsuba, give me some clothes
lying around there.
Huh? Umm
And when was the last time
you even studied at this desk?
Jeez, all you talk about is studying.
You came all the way to a teenage girl's
room and is that all you think of?
Found one!
Anyway, just get dressed
and come to the living room.
Seriously hm?
Futaro was it?
I have something to ask.
Huh?
My gym uniform disappeared.
A red track jacket.
I see. Haven't seen it.
I saw it just a second ago.
Before you came, Futaro.
-You
-Didn't take it!
Hey! I made too many cookies.
You want some?
MIKU NAKANO
Okay, now we have four gathered.
Now, let's start study--
This is good!
What flavor is this?
Why are you wearing my jacket?
Well, I don't want
to get dirty while I cook.
Take it off right now!
Hey, stop!
Give it back!
Later! I'll give it back later!
Uesugi-san, don't worry!
At least I'm studying!
Hey, it's Saturday.
Why don't we go out?
Oh, was there a package for me?
These girls are hopeless.
Don't like cookies?
Huh? Well, I'm not in the mood.
Don't be so cautious,
I didn't drug the cookies or anything.
If you eat some, I'll study.
Wow, you're really digging in.
Are they good?
Yeah, these taste great!
I'm so glad!
Oh yeah, by the way
we don't really need a tutor to be honest.
Just kidding!
Here's some water!
Th-Thanks.
Dammit. I guess that would be
a natural response for them,
but I got to make all five graduate.
It's the only choice I have.
Hm?
Bye-bye!
Huh?
Sir
Sir, we've arrived.
What?! Where?
Where? This is your house, right?
H-How'd you?!
Was it that?
That'll be 4,800 yen.
What?
Cash? That much?!
Charge it.
Yes, thank you.
Itsuki!
I looked inside your student handbook
for your address.
Oh uh
D-Did you see the picture?
What are you talking about?
Anyway, you were completely fooled.
If you've had enough,
you can give up on tutoring us now.
I can't do that.
What? Why would you go so far--
Oh, I knew it was you, Big Bro!
Raiha.
Welcome home!
Dinner's ready hm?
Is this your student?
Sh-She's nobody. Let's go.
Oh, you're lying!
Um, would you like to eat dinner
at our house with us?
What?!
R-Raiha!
But
You don't want to?
Here you go! The Uesugi family's
special curry and rolled omelet!
I hope you like it.
It looks delicious.
Hmph, would a princess understand
commoner food?
Hey!
Ow!
Jeez!
That's why you're not popular
with the girls like me!
Dad!
But I never thought
you'd bring a girl home.
-Oh yeah, Big Bro.
-Hm?
Were you able to tutor okay?
About that--
O-Of course, absolutely!
W-What are you--
Just play along or Raiha will be sad.
What's wrong?
No, it's nothing!
Y-Yes!
But I'm relieved.
Now, our debt problem will be solved.
Raiha, not in front of a guest.
Oh, sorry.
Please excuse me.
Sure.
Raiha-chan, thank you for the meal.
Itsuki-san.
Y-Yes?
My brother's a scummy,
selfish, awful person
R-Raiha?
but he does have his good sides too!
So, um
will you come over to eat again?
Of course!
You get hungry when you use your brain,
so please treat me again.
Don't get it wrong.
I've understood your situation,
but I cannot help you.
Is that so?
I will study, but I won't
ask for your guidance.
I will get through it without you
lending a hand.
So if you want to be a tutor,
go ahead and do as you please.
Huh?
What did you just say?
Huh? I said do as you please--
Oh, th-that's it!
That's all I have to do!
Itsuki, you're awesome!
Uh, what?
I'll come over again tomorrow afternoon,
so have everyone gathered for me.
Uh, huh
That's right.
The deal is to have all five graduate.
There's no need to be honest
and directly deal with all five.
I just have to teach the ones
who are failing.
I wonder if Futaro knows.
He probably doesn't.
The fact that all five of us transferred,
because we almost flunked.
"A dream-like day haha."
"You mean that's the day you met us."
"It didn't look like a dream-like day."
That's true.
I see that moment in my dreams
even now that I'm an adult.
What a complete nightmare.

Quintuplet facts!
The total weight
of us five is 250 kilograms.
Wow, you can evenly
divide that by five!
Fifty kilograms is the average
weight of a healthy girl!
Isn't that right?
Um, but
Isn't that right?
Yeah
