You Are Ms. Servant (2024) s01e12 Episode Script

What? It's Hitoyoshi's
birthday today?
-That's right.
-[NAKA] Perfect!
Now just imagine it!
You can give him
a birthday present
all while enjoying
the night view together!
-The night view?
-Yup.
However, I have no idea
what to get him.
[YUKI] Gift giving
isn't exactly my forte.
Well, do you have any idea
what kind of stuff he likes?
I believe I do.
Let's see.
[YUKI] Katsuda Side Dish
Store's tonkatsu?
Um, I dunno if that'll have
the kind of impact
you're looking for.
What else is there?
♪
Uh, huh?
Maybe a doll?
♪
[NAKA]
Oh, figures!
That's what you meant
when you said "dolls!"
He has these "hero" figures
displayed
on the shelves in his room.
Okay, then! Is there
a character in particular
you recognize in here?
Hopefully.
Huh?!
[YUKI]
There!
I've seen that in
Master Hitoyoshi's room!
It's a little capsule toy!
Put in 300 yen,
then turn the handle
and a random toy displayed
and the picture will pop out.
What if I want this one
specifically?
[NAKA] Sadly,
you'll have to keep trying
until you get the one
you're looking for.
Huh? You're gonna go for it?
Yes.
CAPSULE TOY SECTION
I got another secret Crystal.
[Yuki sniffles]
This is impossible.
[weeping] No matter what I do,
I can't get
Wait, Ms. Yuki, your nose
is getting all drippy!
-Here, use this!
-[sniffles]
[YUKI]
What's the point?
I'm not even worthy of giving
Master Hitoyoshi a present.
-[ARATA] Miss, excuse me.
-[sniffles]
Huh?
It appears as though something
is eluding you right now.
Shall I teach you a spell?
[YUKI]
A spell?
Yes, like this.
Banish those tears!
These evil machines are
designed to prey on the weak!
You can't leave it
in the hands of fate!
You have to seize it
with your own hands!
Manifesting is nothing
but a sick hoax!
[ARATA]
So, steel your heart.
Grab the handle
with killing intent and turn!
-[Naka gasps]
-Yes.
I must steel my heart
with killing intent.
[fire roaring]
"Come home, or die!"
You must make that
your mantra! Go!
[YUKI] Yes, sir!
I'll give it a try!
[NAKA]
You're really doing it?
♪
You will come home
this instant or die.
[NAKA] [whimpers]
That's a lot of killing intent!
[toy rumbling]
[heart beating fast]
-[whimpering] Gulp.
-[gulps]
It, it worked! He came home!
Wow. Nice. Happy for you.
[chuckles]
[YUKI] Sir!
I can't thank you enough!
No need.
To be honest,
this all reminded me
of how I used to tell my son
the same thing.
I had to do something.
I'm just glad
I was able to help.
Now then, I'd better get back
to my shopping.
What a kind and handsome
good Samaritan.
Indeed.
Very considerate.
[RIKO]
You're wide open!
-Chop Attack!
-[screams]
I'm hungry and it's snack time!
But bro is still sleeping!
Huh? Uh, wait,
the shrine though.
[RIKO] Forget that!
Dad's showing up like, now!
What? He is?
I'VE GONE TO THE SHRINE.
-YUKI
[HITOYOSHI]
The shrine.
Huh? Hang on,
Ms. Yuki's not here?
-Huh?
-Dang it.
I still haven't had the chance
to explain anything
about dad to her!
-Are you kidding?
-Well, no.
How though?
[RIKO]
You live together!
You've had so many chances
to say something!
It's just, we were around
each other,
but that doesn't mean
I can tell her everything.
Huh?
[HITOYOSHI]
That's right.
Even with my actual family.
Back then, I wasn't able to ask
mom why she was leaving.
I couldn't ask dad why he had
that look on his face
and there was no way
I could've told him
that this was the first time
that I felt afraid of him.
Afterwards, dad's work
transferred him overseas.
He rarely came home
and left a nanny to take care
of me instead.
I still can't ask why I'm
living separate from mom.
His eyes,
the anger I saw that day.
I'm scared of finding out
it was because of me.
That's why I don't want to see
how he'll react to Ms. Yuki.
[whimpering]
I'm still afraid.
Big brother.
[cellphone vibrates]
Huh?
YOU HAVE A NEW MESSAGE
FROM NAKA HIKAGE.
[HITOYOSHI]
Hikage.
Hm?
JUST NOW,
MS. YUKI AND I PARTED WAYS,
BUT SHE SEEMED SAD
FROM THE FORTUNE
SHE RECEIVED,
SO PLEASE TRY AND CHEER HER UP.
[HITOYOSHI]
"Try and cheer her up."
-[YUKI] I've returned home.
-Huh?
Oh, hi, Ms. Yuki. Welcome back!
Your eyes?
I had such a fun time
visiting the shrine.
Did something happen?
Your eyes are hecka swollen!
No!
[YUKI]
Well, not really.
I'll go get changed right away.
Uh, Ms. Yuki!
-Yes?
-Um
you should know dad
is gonna show up any minute
but I still haven't
told him that
you used to be an assassin
or about your maid outfit
or anything.
-So, uh
-Hmm?
[Hitoyoshi sighs]
Actually,
forget what I just said.
You can go change.
Right.
[HITOYOSHI] What the heck
am I panicking about?
Ms. Yuki's doing her best
to be normal,
and I'm thinking about
hiding her.
That's basically saying
I don't actually think
she's normal at all.
Hmm?
You sure about this?
[HITOYOSHI]
Yeah, I am.
No matter what dad says,
I'll do all I can
to protect Ms. Yuki!
[gasps]
You've grown so much!
[RIKO] Wait!
What are you doing?
Forget me!
You gotta tell Ms. Yuki
that stuff!
You're wasting
all the good material!
What are you, dumb?
Okay, try it again!
-Only this time I'll get it
on camera! -That's enough
[ARATA] Starting the New Year
off with a bang, huh?
[RIKO]
Dad!
Glad to see you two
are getting along.
Warms my heart.
You're here!
[giggles]
Welcome home.
-Thanks, son.
-You made it!
[ARATA] Riko!
Have you been behaving?
[RIKO]
Of course!
Aw! But why do you have this
tiny beard on your face?
Don't you know the ladies
love the simple,
clean-shaven look nowadays?
[chuckles]
Come on.
The only lady I need love
from is you, Riko!
[RIKO]
Good answer!
A hundred thousand dad points!
[HITOYOSHI]
Hey, um, dad?
About the maid,
the one I mentioned before.
Right. She's the new
housekeeper, isn't she?
Gotta say, she'd done
great work with the house.
[ARATA]
I'll have to thank her.
Well, she's not exactly
a housekeeper.
She's a bona fide maid.
Huh?
[gulps]
Her name's Ms. Yuki.
She has a complicated history.
So, there's gonna be a lot
I need to explain to you.
A maid named Ms. Yuki?
[YUKI]
Master Hitoyoshi.
[ARATA]
Hm?
"Yuki."
A maid's dress.
An assassin.
You're the man
who helped me before.
I see.
So it's you. You're Ms. Xue.
[sighs]
[whimpers]
[YUKI] Thank you so much
for your assistance earlier.
[ARATA] It was nothing.
Please, don't worry about it.
[YUKI] No, really.
You were a great help.
[ARATA] Yeah?
Well in that case,
I gladly accept your gratitude.
[RIKO]
Huh? Who helped what?
Do you guys know
each other or something?
[YUKI] To think you were
Master Hitoyoshi's father
the whole time.
[Agemochitaro whines]
My apologies,
Master Hitoyoshi.
I should be helping you
with those!
-Thanks, bro!
-[ARATA] Thank you.
So then, when did you first
start working for Mr. Hamuro?
Right. It was about
three years ago
that he became my master.
[ARATA] He told me of a maid
who was also an assassin,
but I didn't think you'd
turn out to be this beautiful.
[RIKO]
That's what I'm saying!
She's like, ten outta ten!
Am I right, Mochita?
-Bark if you agree!
-[barks]
But how time flies.
It's been half a year since
Mr. Hamuro's passing.
Mm.
He was a great man.
Brilliant and admirable.
Yes. It is a terrible loss.
[HITOYOSHI] This whole time
I was thinking
how I'd explain Ms. Yuki
to my dad, but it turns out
You see, I met him when I was
working in London.
[HITOYOSHI] There's
a part of dad I don't know.
The last time we met,
two years ago, he asked me.
[HITOYOSHI]
And a part of Ms. Yuki, too.
"If I die, there's a girl I'd
like you to take in for me."
[HITOYOSHI]
It's like, I'm listening
to a conversation
between two strangers.
Oh, is that so?
[HITOYOSHI]
All these arrangements
being made behind my back.
I feel it,
like I'm being left behind
and I'll be by myself again.
I feel alone.
Come on, dad!
You knew she was
an assassin, right?
I can't believe you said yes!
Fair, but at the time,
Mr. Hamuro
was still alive and well.
I didn't think he was actually
serious about it.
And I figured
[ARATA] since you two inherited
your mother's vampire genes,
why would I worry about
what one little assassin
would do to
my immortal children?
[screams]
I knew there was a dark secret
about my little fangy!
[YUKI]
Vampire?
Wait! A flashback!
Last Halloween,
I was a vampire!
I thought I felt my blood
respond back then!
You're adorable, you know that?
[HITOYOSHI] Dad's always
been this way, hasn't he?
Whenever there's something
he wants to hide
or avoid facing,
he brushes it off
with a joke or remains silent.
So I learned to stop prying
about his personal business.
Squishy puppy!
[HITOYOSHI] And started to
pick up on his cues.
[gasps]
I get it. I
JUST NOW,
MS. YUKI AND I PARTED WAYS,
BUT SHE SEEMED SAD
FROM THE FORTUNE
SHE RECEIVED,
SO PLEASE TRY AND CHEER HER UP.
Forget me! You gotta tell
Ms. Yuki that stuff!
[HITOYOSHI] I've always
kept things to myself
so I wouldn't burden others.
My dad, Ms. Yuki,
I don't tell them anything.
And instead of trying to
learn about them
I just wait for them
to tell me.
[ARATA]
All right, Riko.
Time for me to take you home.
What? Already?
[ARATA]
Yeah, I have some things
I need to speak
with your mother about.
You know it's big bro's
birthday today!
Yes, and I also know he doesn't
like it being celebrated.
-[ARATA] Hitoyoshi.
-Huh?
I wish you a happy
sixteenth birthday.
This gift is from your mother
and me.
[HITOYOSHI]
Thanks.
[ARATA] Sorry,
I know you went through
the trouble of
cleaning the house,
but I have a work meeting,
so I'll be staying at a hotel.
I'll see ya next time!
-Sure.
-You be good!
[Agemochitaro barks]
[HITOYOSHI]
There's so much I want to say.
What now?
Am I going to leave it
unsaid again?
[RIKO]
It was fun!
Later!
[chuckles]
[HITOYOSHI] Will he leave
without me saying anything?
♪
[HITOYOSHI] No.
This time, I need to.
[beeping]
[HITOYOSHI]
Dad!
Huh?
Ms. Yuki, she's allowed
to stay here with me, right?
[whimpering]
[sighs]
You know,
you can tell me what you want.
Huh? I
Huh?
I want her to stay!
[whimpering]
[chuckles]
[ARATA]
Okay.
You're old enough now.
You can do as you like.
-[gasps]
-Huh?!
[ARATA]
Don't worry, I'll gently break
the news to your mother.
[beeping]
[door whirring]
[door closes]
[engine revving]
[HITOYOSHI]
For the first time,
I was able to tell him
what was on my mind.
Was I able to protect Ms. Yuki?
Hopefully.
-Master.
-[cellphone rings]
Huh?
INCOMING CALL
DAD
[HITOYOSHI]
Dad.
Um, hi, dad.
-[ARATA] Sorry, Hitoyoshi.
-[gasps]
[ARATA] Would you mind
putting on Ms. Yuki?
[sighs]
-[HITOYOSHI] It's for you.
-It is?
[HITOYOSHI]
Dad wants to speak to you.
This is Yuki speaking.
-[ARATA] Ms. Yuki.
-Yes.
[ARATA] I apologize for
putting you through all this.
I couldn't ask in front of him,
but is there anything
you find unsatisfactory?
[YUKI] I'm quite all right.
It's fine.
I think Master Hitoyoshi is
taking very good care of me.
[ARATA]
I see.
Ms. Yuki?
Hitoyoshi has changed
or rather he's trying to.
Now, I know why.
It's all because
you're by his side.
-[ARATA] Thank you.
-[gasps]
[ARATA]
Look after him.
I leave him in your care.
[YUKI]
Of course.
Hmm?
[HITOYOSHI]
Ms. Yuki?
[whimpers]
[YUKI]
Master Hitoyoshi.
The night view, would you like
to go see it with me?
Wait, night view?
Hmm, hmm.
-Sure, I guess?
-[whimpering]
-Where are we going any
-If you'll excuse me.
way?
[grunts]
Ms. Yuki?
What's up with you?
[panting] I know
it's not quite night time yet,
but there's a lovely view
of townso.
[HITOYOSHI]
Maybe catch your breath
so you stop clutching
your chest?
Just slow down!
Um, here, Master.
A gift for you.
Happy birthday!
[HITOYOSHI] So, that's why
she was clutching her chest
and being all fidgety.
Huh?
[whimpering]
♪
[YUKI] It broke, but I had to
give this to you today.
[HITOYOSHI]
I see.
Look at me.
I was getting it all wrong.
I get it.
If you always bottle
everything up
no one will know how you feel.
-How could they?
-[whimpers]
[HITOYOSHI] For me, there's one
thing I wanna tell Ms. Yuki.
I want, to share my hopes
for our future together.
[sighs]
Hey, did you know
this is from an anime that
I liked from ten years ago.
I nagged my dad to get me
all the merch from it,
like a total brat.
That doesn't sound like you,
Master Hitoyoshi.
-Back then
-[ARATA] Up you go!
[HITOYOSHI] When I was little,
I looked up to my dad.
It was like he knew everything
and could do anything.
So, to me he was the first
hero I ever knew.
[HITOYOSHI] But, ever since
the day my mom left,
it was like I didn't know him
at all anymore.
My perception of him
came crashing down.
That feeling really sucked.
I'm still scared of him now.
What if I try to open up to him
and he shuts me down?
I didn't want to be hurt
any more than I already was.
That's why I spent
ten years avoiding him.
And before I knew it,
I forgot how to be in a family.
I know better now.
Ms. Yuki, I, I don't want
to do that to you.
If you're here to find a family
that you can call your own,
I'll help.
I want to be that for you.
Share sad times
and happy times.
[HITOYOSHI] I want to
experience everything
in-between with you
as a family.
Would you be part of my family?
[wind gusting]
♪
[HITOYOSHI]
I know.
I'm being super awkward
and formal about this
outta nowhere.
And people kinda already
think we're cousins,
so why even bother asking,
right?
[screams]
Ms. Yuki?
Wait, did I say something
I shouldn't have?
[YUKI]
No. My apologies.
How strange.
Tears can still flow
even during moments
of happiness.
I would love to
join your family.
Is that really possible?
[YUKI]
Even for someone like me?
Yeah! Of course!
To me, it has to be you,
and only you!
Because
'CauseMs. Yuki,
I, I love you!
[gasps]
[chuckles]
[whimpers]
Thanks! I feel the same.
I love you too,
Master Hitoyoshi!
[whimpers]
[door opens]
[door closes]
[thuds]
[HITOYOSHI] So, this is how
my New Year's turmoil ends.
It's better this way.
It has to be.
If that's what it takes to
preserve Ms. Yuki's smile,
so be it.
I already knew her "love"
is more like "endearment."
But
[weeping]
I think, for the first time,
I've experienced
real heartbreak.
