Kill Blue (2026) s01e03 Episode Script

In other words, 2 here is the coefficient.
To express an algebraic expression,
you combine like terms.
So, in this equation…
Uh…
Huh?
What?
SATURDAY, APRIL 25th
Huh?
There's something in class
you don't understand?
Even going back over everything
we've covered so far didn't help.
So, that's why you were
acting all weird in class!
By the way…
how are you at math?
I suck at it!
Yeah, figures.
Ah! In that case…
Huh? Studying?
So, when stuff like X and Y starts
showing up, you get all mixed up.
Please, Eri! Teach me!
No way!
I'm juggling work and housework as it is,
and I'm also trying to figure out
how to turn you back to normal.
I can't argue with that…
But please, help me out here!
It's not like he's actually dumb.
Go ask your teacher.
That's what school is for, right?
It's just…
the teacher's a little younger than me,
so it's kind of hard to ask.
What?!
Either drop that pointless pride,
or deal with it yourself!
She hung up on me.
LIBRARY
No good.
I don't get it!
If I don't figure it out,
I'll never understand
what comes up in later lessons!
At this rate, I'm just gonna keep
falling further and further behind!
What am I supposed to do?
Are you looking something up?
You're Ogami, right?
I've seen him in my class.
Uh, let's see… Shira… ishi…
Yep, Ryo Shiraishi!
Okay, I see.
This is probably a problem
that goes back even earlier.
Huh?
Maybe you never got the hang of
math in elementary school,
so now it's all getting mixed together
and confusing you.
Come to think of it,
all I did was fool around.
I know!
I come here to study pretty often, too!
Let's do it together!
Huh?
MODERN MIDDLE SCHOOL

MATH QUIZ
QUIZ
JUZO OGAMI
I got a perfect score on the quiz
because of you!
Thanks!
No, it's because you worked hard
and relearned the basics, Ogami.
Damn, I'm so freaking happy!
Seriously, thank you so much…
Master!
Huh? What's with "Master"?
I can never thank you enough!
But first, let me buy you a drink.
Why do you suddenly sound like an old man?
How about over there?
Sorry!
Watch where you're going, brat.
Let's go.
There's an open table over there.
Cocky little brats.
Wasting their parents' money.
Punks think the world's a joke.
No, but seriously, it's amazing!
While teaching me every day,
you were studying even more yourself.
Rather than being diligent,
it feels like you've got
some kind of goal you're aiming for!
Don't tell anyone else in class, okay?
The truth is…
I want to become a doctor.
That's incredible!
What's the difference if people know?
Well, it's just kind of embarrassing.
When I was little,
my mom died of an illness.
And on days when my dad wasn't around,
my grandma took care of me.
But lately, my grandma's health
has gotten worse.
So, I decided.
I want people like my mom and grandma
to live longer.
So, I thought I'd become a doctor.
That's all.
Grandmaster!
I got promoted again?
Please, stop with that!
I'm touched!
I'm nowhere near that!
What brought this on?
No, honestly…
I really meant that.
I say I'm bad with kids…
but maybe that's because
I've never really treated them
as individual people.
At the very least,
he's way more admirable than I am.
I heard you two talking.
Aiming to be a doctor these days?
Aside from being a waste of money,
it just makes me wonder
if you're plain stupid!
What?
What you're saying
is so out of touch with reality.
You really oughta look at the data more.
Maybe I should just punch him.
No, you shouldn't get violent!
And you, too, Glasses…
Struggling with homework
in your first year of middle school?
That's just dumb, honestly!
And then trying your ass off
when you're clearly not cut out for it?
Shows just how stupid you are.
I mean, being dumb is--
Thanks for the advice.
But we've had enough.
Wha…
I'm saying this for your sake!
What you're saying has nothing to do
with why I want to become a doctor.
More than that,
even if you were technically right,
calling others "idiots"
for not accepting that,
is just wrong of you as a person.
And I don't want someone like that
laughing at my friend's hard work!
Listen--
That's enough.
You're being loud.
That's exactly what you call
"none of your damn business."
Gross.
He's getting destroyed.
Anyway, what do you do for a living?
All of you go to hell!
So you speak up when it counts!
I've found new respect for you.
I just kind of lost my temper.
That really wasn't good, was it?
It was awesome!
Goddamn kids!
Make a fool outta me?
As I pass by,
I'll nail 'em with my killer kick!
And send 'em splashing into the river!
I bet he's thinking crap like that.
Good grief.
Boss!
Yeah, I know.
I'm just gonna teach him a little lesson.
That's going a little too far, sonny.
Go cool down a bit.
Then learn a thing or two from my master.
- What?
Oops.
Here.
You forgot something.
Your precious laptop.
Mind your own damn business!
Huh?
Did something just fall in?
Who knows?
She may not look it,
but she gets lonely easily.
Kozu--
It's me.
Mornin'!
This place is a total dump, Boss!
The living room's filthy, too!
I haven't called
the housekeeper in a while.
Then just clean it yourself!
No can do. I've never done that before.
Besides, men don't do
that kind of stuff, you know.
Boss…
That's not funny.
- Huh?
What year do you think this is?
Seriously, update your values already!
Keep that in mind, okay?
Yeah, yeah, I got it.
Who wants to join our club?
Oh, club activities, huh?
TENNIS CLUB
They did say
clubs were starting up this week.
Have you decided what club you're joining?
Hmm…
I'm gonna pass on the athletic clubs.
Huh? Why's that?
Hey!
Sorry! Throw it back over here!
You okay?
I'd stand out way too much in this world.
Oh, what club?
I'm thinking maybe kendo.
Huh?
I actually did it a little before.
I just like it, and I want to do my best
balancing it with my studies, too.
Master!
What about you, Ogami?
Oh, I figured I should probably avoid
athletic clubs.
Then maybe a cultural club?
Looks like there are all kinds.
Huh?
Home Ec Club?
Cooking, sewing,
and even laundry and cleaning, too.
It's probably all girls anyway, right?
For real, Boss? Again?
Hmm? Hey…
I can't just let that one slide, Ogami.
Sis!
- Huh?
You're Master's big sis?
Yep. And I'm the president of the
Home Ec Club you were just talking about.
My little brother's told me about you.
Still, what are you, a newly arrived
time traveler or something?
Sure, there are all kinds of differences
between men and women.
But that's beside the point.
If you're alive, you eat, so you cook.
You make trash, so you clean it up.
That's why…
you should learn to wipe your own butt.
That's all there is to it.
"Wipe your own butt"!
I see!
Phrased like that, you get it, huh?
Once you learn how to do it,
you can let someone else take over.
Knowing the effort it takes
makes you appreciate it properly.
All right!
There's a trial session today, so come by!
Huh?
Rather, I'd better see you there!
No, I…
If you don't come,
I'm not letting you borrow Ryo anymore.
No way! Don't take my Master!
To think she'd threaten
a legendary assassin…
HOME EC ROOM
Okay, since this is just a trial session,
let's keep it simple today
and make rice balls and miso soup!
Okay!
There are actually
quite a few guys here, too.
Now then…
since we've got the venue,
how about a little contest?
Huh?
If it turns out to be boring, you win.
Then, as part of club activities,
I'll help out with your chores
for the next six months.
Huh?
She's pretty damn confrontational.
And if I lose?
You join!
No complaints if you had fun, right?
Damn, that's good.
FEEL FREE TO TAKE LEFTOVERS HOME!
You can take home whatever's left over!
If you had a good time,
we'd love to have you join the club!
So, what did you think?
Uh…
How can I put it? It was…
just okay.
Huh? Boss?
I see!
Well, too bad!
No, I mean, it's not like it was boring,
so let's call it a draw.
Nah!
The contest isn't over yet.
Huh?
See…
I mean, that was petty!
Just because you don't wanna lose!
Huh?
You were going, "This is damn good!"
about the miso soup, weren't you?
No, that's not it!
It was good, sure.
It was good, but I was kinda like,
"Okay, that's enough."
Really?
Honestly, it just didn't move me enough
to make me want to join the club.
You want the leftovers I made?
Huh? Really? Sweet!
No.
Actually, I'm good.
Why?
More importantly, you're heading
to the lab for your checkup, right?
MIDDLE SCHOOL
MATH 1
Yeah, hello?
Sure. What's up?
Hey, what's with
the surprise food delivery?
What brought this on?
And Home Ec Club?
How in the world did that happen?
Oh, shut up.
Besides, I haven't joined yet.
Kozue and I ate it earlier.
Thanks.
It was good.
Yeah?
Good.
Here, Kozue.
You wanted to say something, right?
It was really good,
Papa.
Thanks.
Hey, sorry. Let me correct something.
Huh?
I said you should learn to wipe
your own butt, but cooking's different.
The rice balls and miso soup you made…
Have someone
who's important to you eat them.
You see,
making food for yourself is one thing,
but making it for someone else
is a hundred times more fun!
The miso soup was a little salty, though.
Oh.
Is that right?
Why does your voice sound weird?
Oh…
I've got a cold.
Was that Eri?
- Yeah.
Damn.
I think I might've lost.
The very next day, you joined on the spot?
Talk about a fast decision!
Yeah, yeah.
Well, if it helps fix
some of your bad habits, then--
Yeah, yeah.
I said no!
Aw, come on!
Looks like you're as popular as ever.
Oh? Wait, Mitsuoka, you, too?
Huh? Me, too?
Why would you be joining?
Well, it's complicated.
But why you, Mitsuoka?
I just thought…
maybe it could help out
with the ramen shop, too.
But don't you dare tell anyone!
And don't get too chummy with me, either!
Yeah, yeah.
Same as ever, huh?
That's just how she is.
From Eri?
Huh?
Boss, this is bad!
What is it?
We found a way for you
to get back to normal!
For real?
Without further ado…
you need to marry Noren Mitsuoka!
What the hell are you talking about?
I'm telling you--
- I heard you, that's why!
What the hell are you talking about?!
How does that get me back to normal?
Just now, Mitsuoka Pharmaceuticals
put out a pretty insane announcement!
That Noren Mitsuoka's fiancé
will inherit the company.
What?!
An announcement like that
would get nothing but backlash!
What they're really after is unclear.
If that were all, it'd still feel
like somebody else's problem…
but do you remember
what that kidnapper said?
"We don't know what it is exactly,
but there's no doubt that she has it."
Actually, that, too
is circulating behind the scenes
as highly credible information.
To sum it up, if you want to learn
the secret of that wasp,
threats and brute force won't work.
The only way is to inherit the company.
Which means…
becoming Noren Mitsuoka's fiancé.
That's your new mission, Boss!
As if I could do that!
A divorced guy pushing 40
becoming a middle schooler's fiancé?
Man, maybe I should just confess
my love to her!
Not a bad idea!
If you actually got with her,
you'd be the president of Mitsuoka!
Being a gold digger is the dream!
"Being a gold digger," nice.
Yeah, I guess it would be impossible…
Don't ever say that again, even as a joke.
NATSUKIYA
RAMEN
Ah, so good!
As long as I'm eating ramen here,
I can forget all about everything!
What about this fiancé stuff?
No way an old man could do that.
I might be back at square one
with getting my old body back,
but whatever happens, happens. Screw it!
Thanks for the meal!
Much appreciated!
Ogami, you never change.
- Hmm?
Oh…
Sounds like things are rough for you.
I heard people have been coming on to you
even more than before.
Well, I'm just here for the ramen, so…
Noren, you can head out now.
Ah, okay.
This seriously sucks!
Why would your dad do something like that?
How should I know?
He barely ever comes home lately!
And honestly,
I never want to see his face again!
What the hell is his problem?
Idiot!
Right, Ogami?
You're not even listening!
Oh, yeah, that really sounds rough.
Don't ask me about it
and then stop listening halfway through!
No, for real…
I totally get it.
- Yeah, right!
Anyway, about tomorrow's English--
Already changing the subject?
This is kind of nice, actually!
Ah, crap!
This is the kind of
pointless back-and-forth
I want to have with friends.
Maybe I can do that in the club?
- Huh?
Make that kind of friend!
Oh, yeah.
Not that I'm saying
you're that kind of friend, though.
What?
It's finally club time, Boss!
Yeah!
Gotta learn to wipe my own butt!
Is that really the right energy
to bring into this?
Sis…
Hey, we've got a bit of a problem.
What?!
We've been flooded with applicants since.
Most of them are here because of Noren.
Joining Home Ec, too?
Wow, what a coincidence!
- Like hell it is!
Actually, I've always loved home ec!
"Loved home ec"?
What the hell does that even mean?
Tama, could you get Hashikan for me?
Shut up already!
Let me make one thing clear!
I already have a boyfriend!
It's Juzo Ogami right here!
What?!
