7Seeds (2019) s01e04 Episode Script

Tell everyone we'll be having our meeting at the usual time.
Yes, ma'am.
Wow.
This really is a village.
Karita, make sure the gate is locked up tight.
There may be some rats lurking around.
Who are you calling "rats"? I think he means you.
Hey.
Ran, I'll join you after I check the crop shed.
Got it.
Hey! This isn't a parade for you to gawk at.
- Get to work.
- Yes, sir.
I take my eyes off them for a second and they start slacking off.
AUTUMN BEGINS Did you build this village? Yes, Akiwo and I built it.
So, where are the other members of your team? In Kyushu.
We found one of the seven regional Fuji mountains.
We're there.
And why did you come all the way here? To check out the Kanto region because these two used to live there.
On our way, we just happened to run into that dude from earlier.
What do you think, Akiwo? I don't believe in coincidences.
How can we be sure you aren't here just to steal from us? "Steal"? Look, we only stopped here because we heard one of the Fujis was in Kobe.
This is it.
For real? Mt.
Futatabi, also known as Mt.
Kobe Fuji.
This house was built right on top of the storage shelter.
You all got some really clean clothes on.
When did you wake up in this world? About a month ago.
So, that's how it is.
So it's different for each team, then.
We've already been here for three years.
Three years? Didn't you meet anyone else during that time? We spent a year wandering, then another year making our home here.
Now in the third year, you all are the first people we've come across.
But I'm disappointed.
What's that supposed to mean? Time for the meeting.
Sakuya, what did you accomplish today? I harvested the corn and took care of the livestock as usual.
I also cleaned the shed.
Understood.
Karita, you're next.
I cultivated a new field on the west slope and spread earthworms.
- I'm going to leave for a while.
- I see.
- Where are you going? - Next, Akane.
Nature calls.
You want to come with me, Nat? No, I'm fine.
Okay, save my seat.
Where is Semimaru going? The bathroom.
- Kurumi.
- Yes, ma'am.
That was all you could manage? I'm sorry.
My hands hurt, so I couldn't make much progress.
You've been slacking off.
You decided your own quota, didn't you? I'm sorry.
I'll make up for it tomorrow.
Please stop! I'll help her make up for it.
Just stop.
You can barely even handle your own quota.
Don't pretend like you can play the hero.
That's enough! What the hell is this supposed to accomplish? Ryuusei, in addition to cutting wood, I'm putting you on bath duty tonight.
You'll also do the night patrol.
Aren't you the guide of this group? Don't just watch.
Please stop this.
Hey It doesn't matter what you say to that man.
Izayoi is as weak and indecisive as his name sounds.
He was the only adult.
He knew what he was getting into, but he ran away from the responsibility.
I'm sorry.
He only wears those glasses to hide his face and avoid reality.
Isn't that right, Mr.
Guide? Start over when you gather the courage to take off those glasses.
But I doubt that day will ever come.
Who died and made you two kings? We were forced into this mess together! We have to cooperate! And why aren't you speaking up? It's stupid to let them beat you! Wake up! We all came here as equals, didn't we? Listen, boy.
Not all people are equal.
That hurts.
- Let me go.
- This man, he was trying to steal food from us.
- That hurt.
- Semimaru.
They're thieves, just like I thought.
Well, I was just hoping for some charity.
The punishment is severe, pal.
Hold up! I take it back.
It was just a joke! A prank! People with sticky fingers get punished.
No way! Wait a minute! All we want to do is get to the Kanto region.
Naturally, we would be happy if you shared with us, but we have no intention of stealing.
Share with you? In exchange for what, exactly? What? There is no money in this world.
What are you going to give us, pretty boy? Just so you know, you won't make it to the Kanto region.
Even if you somehow did, I doubt you would make it back alive.
What are you talking about? It's physically impossible.
Hey, Karita.
Tie up this bunch of thieves.
What the heck are you doing? - Just try and catch me - Yes, sir.
- if you - Hey! Stop! - Don't even bother trying to resist.
- Damn it.
- Karita is an Olympic level judo athlete.
- Let go! Wait.
If you're so strong, why are you letting them push you around? I think you've got the wrong idea about us.
The whole reason we're still alive is thanks to Mr.
Akiwo and Ms.
Ran.
It's true that not all people are equal.
Some people have the strength to live, and some don't.
What? Are you serious? Those two are the ones who whip the rest of us into shape.
So would you please just drop it? Why are you speaking in English? Use it or lose it, as they say.
What are you all supposed to be good at? We all have some special skill.
It's the reason we got chosen.
From what I can tell, the pretty boy is probably an athlete.
And the other one is nothing more than a habitual shoplifter, I guess? Hey, have some respect.
And what about you, girlie? What? Me? Oh, nothing.
"Nothing"? No skills or knowledge? Nothing.
Didn't that coward of a guide mention that there are two Summer teams? Yes.
So which are you? Team B.
They're the dropouts.
That would explain the shoplifter.
How ludicrous.
Even talking to them was a waste of time.
How can you say that? What the hell is your problem? You may be pretty, but don't let it go to your head.
Oh, jeez.
Hey, boy.
You want to know something? What's that? Having sex is banned in our team.
Can you figure out why? Because they didn't leave us any contraceptives.
We're not going to pump out babies like they want us to.
Japan can rot for all I care! Hey! Wait! Get back here! What are you going to do with us? Untie this rope right now! Goddamn it! Damn, it's not coming loose.
That sure sucked.
That was dangerous.
Are you all right? More or less.
You Oh, don't worry.
Nobody has noticed.
Have some water.
Here.
Thank you.
Hold on a second.
You know, I'm not a trusting person like you two are.
In other words It's in my nature to suspect everyone.
Poison? Just look! That dude has clearly lost his marbles! Stop right there.
Mr.
Izayoi, what are you doing? Isn't this everyone's drinking water? Are you trying to kill them all? Why would you do this? We're better off dead.
We should all just die.
Why? Why are we still alive? I should have done this sooner.
This was given to all of the guides, a cyanide compound that can kill everyone if we woke up in a world that was uninhabitable.
Or if we contracted a disease that didn't kill, but made life impossible, this would end it all without suffering.
You dumb You dumbass! What gives you the right? You think you already know everything about this world? I haven't given up yet.
Don't you dare kill me! Don't kill anyone, you dumbass! Now you won't be tempted to use it.
We're going to survive.
That's right! So don't get in our way.
Those three hit the road.
Good.
They should get a taste of what real despair is like.
If they think they'll be happy after that, then I would like to see them try.
Through all the ages, we've never known what the meaning of life is.
That poison Ms.
Botan must have a vial of it, right? Yes, probably.
I wonder if she considered using it? I doubt that.
That woman is not the type.
Yes, you're right.
Why is there an ocean here? This should be the right direction.
Let's get the boat set up.
We'll just have to keep going.
Hey, there isn't anywhere to tie it down.
Oh, is that so? Someone will have to stay behind to hold it.
Then how are they supposed to get down? There's no way I'm jumping into that ocean full of rocks.
- Do you want to stay here, then? - What? Are you trying to leave me behind? No thanks! If someone has to stay, then you should do it.
I sure as hell don't want to go back to that village.
I'll help lower you all down.
Mr.
Izayoi.
You followed us? There's no way in hell we can trust you.
You would just let the rope go.
I want you to go east and check it out.
If you find anything good out there, I want you to return and tell Team Autumn.
Please.
What do you think? Mr.
Izayoi, if you don't mind, will you take off your glasses for us? I find it hard to trust those who intentionally hide their eyes.
Sure, I can understand that.
I should have done this from the start.
Hey, you're good-looking! Those glasses don't do you any favors.
I used to make a living as a firefighter.
I've always wanted to help people.
I thought I was ready for all this, but somewhere in my heart, I guess I never truly believed things would end up like this.
We can always make up for our mistakes as long as we're alive.
You've already survived for three years, right? You'll make it.
Please find a way to maintain that optimism of yours.
Do whatever it takes to keep your hope alive.
Hey! That's land over there, right? Yes.
Looks like eastern Japan is still intact.
I take back what I said.
We've come a long way from Kobe.
I get the feeling we passed Hamamatsu without even knowing it.
Wait, didn't you say that's where you used to live? Yes.
Apparently, there's nothing left of Hamamatsu anymore.
That probably means the eels it was famous for are now extinct, too.
Well, my family could never afford to eat them, anyway.
Guess that's it.
Time to say my goodbyes.
Hey, Mom.
You were unlucky in love, but with your devil's luck, you may be alive somewhere.
That 100 million yen you got for selling me, what did you spend it on? Men? I bet you did, Mom.
Isn't this There's an entrance just like the others.
Heave-ho! - It won't budge.
Hey! - This is another one of the seven.
- Help me out here.
- Mt.
Ogino Fuji.
- I can't do this by myself.
- Or Mt.
Kyogatake.
If that's right, then we're already in Kanagawa prefecture.
But I didn't see Mt.
Fuji anywhere.
It's been totally flooded.
Maybe it's groundwater.
It's drinkable if we filter and boil it, right? I'm going to dive in and take a look.
Hold up, Arashi! You have no idea if there's a way for you to get out.
Don't do it! Arashi It seems like he's getting more desperate the closer we get to Tokyo.
Hana Please don't be dead.
Please be alive somewhere Hana.
We'll stay here tonight.
Once we have enough supplies, we'll head for Tokyo.
All right, time to start a fire.
Hey, fire wiz, use this.
Wait, isn't this from your book? Are you sure? It's fine.
ROBINSON CRUSOE It's only half of the book, anyway.
Hana The greenery here is thick and the air is heavy.
It's hard to breathe.
Maybe there's too much oxygen.
It's quiet.
"Quiet"? I hear a lot of different noises around here.
At least, compared to the last island.
Hey! Somebody! Is anybody out there? No matter what happened, don't you think some people had a chance to flee? Just look at how many buildings are left.
It's impossible to say.
What? You want me to make you feel better? What's your problem? Isn't there someone you're worried about? Isn't there someone special to you, someone you want to be alive? No, there isn't.
What? Actually, this is all a big relief for me.
Everyone we knew isn't alive anymore.
And without them, music will die out too.
My family has practiced music for generations.
Their children all had to play the piano or violin.
It was stressful and scary.
There was never even a chance to enjoy the sounds.
You didn't enjoy it at all? No, and now I never have to play the piano again.
I've never felt so free.
I think we can get in here.
Let's spend the night inside and then hurry back tomorrow.
Sounds good to me.
I'm tired of rowing.
It ruins my hands.
A church? Isn't it just a chapel for weddings? Haru? Want to try? I'll pass.
I don't want to injure my fingers.
So tell me, who is this person you want to meet so badly? A boyfriend? Yes, his name is Arashi.
You know, sometimes Olympic athletes get a lot of flak for saying that they enjoyed the race.
But that totally doesn't mean they aren't serious or are taking it easy.
I imagine that they enjoy the thrill they feel while under the extreme stress and intensity of the competition.
What? What are you talking about? I think athletes and artists know best what that moment of happiness is like.
Wasn't it the same for you, Haru? It must have been.
If you really don't want to play the piano anymore, then why are you always wearing gloves and protecting your hands? Haru? Haru, I can see the road that you've traveled.
Fujiko and the others are back! Fujiko.
Hey, Fujiko! How did it go? It's just ocean all the way to Mt.
Tsukuba.
The plains of Kanto are totally underwater.
I see.
Hey! Hey! If Tokyo is no more, then our only option is to head for Mt.
Fuji.
You're right.
Haru, what was that song you played earlier? "Morning Mood" from Peer Gynt.
I thought it was pretty fitting for us right now.
It was amazing.
It made me cry.
You're exaggerating.
That organ didn't even work.
Still, it made me feel better.
Well, it wasn't too bad of a performance, if I do say so myself.
Yes.
As long as you're still alive, music will never die out.
