Banana Fish (2018) s01e18 Episode Script

1
Did you get hold of Kippard?
Fine then.
You better keep your loins in check, too.
Are you kidding, Colonel Holstock?
I know how he
I've been ignoring everyone
I've been wandering around
I've been deceived everything
At that time
Then you appeared in front of me
You ignited my pale heart
We've been looking for each other
From now on
Save you
The infinite sacrifices
The blurry ideals
I won't let it all go to waste
So I tore up the sadness
built up inside me, into tiny pieces
Get away from me
Get away from dark nightmare
Just now, chip at your heart
We just fight for freedom
All the arguments, all the colliding
I wanted to save you, despite all that
Get away from me
Get away from dark nightmare
We don't want to go through that again
The time is ripe
Listen to the bells of inception ring
Get away from me
Ash. Ash!
This is the 5th time. Wake up already.
It's way past noon.
Jeez, how do you stay alive like that?
I made breakfast. I'll wake you up
if it's the last thing I do!
A shower should wake you up.
Take your pants off, okay?
Here. Avocado and shrimp salad,
your favorite.
Eat and you'll wake up.
Hold on, let me get you some milk.
How's that?
Breakfast in 5 minutes, okay?
Finally.
-When did you get up?
-8:30.
Low blood pressure?
You're like a frail little girl.
The elderly get up early.
Why don't you start early morning croquet?
Well, seems like somebody's fully awake.
Avocado shrimp salad, huh?
Somebody ate some.
Yeah, it was you.
This is good. You'd make a good wife.
I've never heard of an American
who hates hamburgers.
What's wrong with that?
Not all Japanese like natto either.
He's still mad about it.
Let me see the paper.
I'm reading it.
Read it later.
You take too long to read, Big Bro.
Why don't you go learn English
with Sesame Street first?
Thanks. I'll buy you a comic book later.
What's in the news?
Don't worry, Big Bro.
Keep your nose out of it.
Hey, someone's at the door.
-I'm not your maid!
-Of course not.
It's not in the news yet.
Who killed Kippard, and for what?
It was definitely the work of a pro.
Why didn't they kill me too?
Ibe-san!
I was worried to death.
Sorry.
I'm just glad you're safe.
Can I borrow you for a minute?
I showed your report
to a psycopharmacologist.
He was impressed
Hey, are you listening?
An accident occurred on Route 87.
Colonel Thomas Holstock died in the crash.
Is God punishing him?
This is no accident.
From here?
Kippard and Holstock.
There's no way this is a coincidence.
The killer made it look like an accident.
If he's skilled enough to shoot Kippard
from here, it's possible.
Could it be
Blanca.
I'm glad to hear you're satisfied.
Good day.
Things are going to get busy for you.
It's a crucial "trump card."
To just let it go to waste is
The Foundation is pretty much
in his hands now.
What shall we do, your Excellency?
That's his hideout right there.
It's just opposite your office.
He never ceases to amaze me.
It's darkest under the lamp post,
or so they say.
And he is?
Mr. Lee Yut Lung of the Lee conglomerate.
He's the one who devised this plan.
I see. It's an honor to meet you.
What are you going to show us today?
You'll see. Just wait.
He won't be able to keep from
trying to find out.
-I see you know Ash very well.
-I guess I do.
I'm the one who taught him.
If my guess is right
Was I wrong?
-Ash, want some
-Stay back!
-Boss!
-Turn off the light!
Now, run!
Eiji, you okay?
Yeah, it just nicked me.
There's no doubt anymore.
And his target is
Hello, little kitten. You've grown.
You bastard!
I hadn't heard that from you
in a long time. Haven't changed much.
Hold on.
Hello, Ash.
You've received our warning.
We have hired him.
His target is your friend.
Eiji Okumura.
Negotiations will be tomorrow night at 9.
Pier 8, Warehouse 12.
Give me Blanca.
Yes, Honey?
You said you retired, you goddam liar!
What happened to
your Caribbean life, huh?
Don't worry, I'm enjoying my retirement.
The Caribbean is great.
The bright sun, chocolate colored girls
I hope your "parts" rots and falls off!
Is that book good?
That's for you to decide yourself.
What's it called?
"Islands in the Stream."
Want to read it?
It depicts the solitude of humans.
Nah, I take it back.
Read it when you're a bit more grown.
What's that supposed to mean?
Why you?
Why, after all this time?
I'm no match.
Not against him.
What should I do?
What can I do?
-How is it?
-Not bad. It's nothing.
Got a fever?
I guess not.
But you better rest.
Gunshot wounds can cause fevers.
Is it safe to open?
Yeah.
It seems like there's trouble again.
It's nothing I hadn't expected.
Go to sleep.
Ash, won't you come to Japan?
When it's all over, come to Japan with me.
Me? To Japan?
What gave you that idea?
I want you to see my country. Besides
You don't need a gun to live.
I wouldn't have anything to do in Japan.
Killing is all I know.
Come on, don't say that.
You could do anything.
How about becoming a model?
I bet they'd love you.
Yeah right. Modeling is a tough world.
It's nothing like kids' porno.
I didn't mean it like that.
Sorry.
No, I'm sorry.
I don't know why I said that.
What's Japan like?
There are lots of people. And cars.
Why go then? That's the same as here.
Well, Tokyo anyways.
-My hometown isn't like that.
-Where is it?
Izumo City of Shimane.
Izumo is the land of gods.
Gizmo?
No, not like from Gremlins.
It's I-zu-mo.
-I-zu-mo.
-Right.
There are 8 million gods in Japan.
There's even one for toilets.
And one that makes you poor.
Hope he doesn't visit me.
Japan, huh? I'd like to go someday.
I'd love to take you.
I bet everybody would be surprised.
My lil sis might even faint.
Whatever.
Never shall I forgive
whomever should hurt you.
No matter whom it is.
I won't let anybody hurt you.
I feel so pathetic.
You didn't get a fever.
I'm just used to it. Don't worry.
Sorry I can't call you a doctor.
It's fine. I'll just sleep it off.
Ibe is coming.
I thought you'd want to speak Japanese
when you're weak.
I'm going out to meet Max.
I can tell that you're lying.
Because whenever you lie,
you become terribly calm.
You're hiding something important.
"See you later."
All I can do is trust those words.
Please God, keep him safe.
Please.
Finally.
To think you'd come so docilely.
It's true that your teacher
is a very skilled person,
but you're not even going
to put up a fight?
He's on a whole different level.
It's not about winning or losing.
What an honor to hear that.
Hey. How did you like
"Islands in the Stream"?
Enough of this crap.
You're going to kill me, so kill me.
Stuff me, whatever. Just do it.
You're acting tough tonight.
It's so unlike you.
Can you shoot that, little girl?
I'm not the one who's shooting.
You are.
You're going to shoot your own head.
If you do, I'll swear
never to lay a single finger on Eiji.
Can you do it?
No bullets?
Give me a bullet.
For a guy like him? Why?
Why is it so easy for you?
What the heck? You're the one
that told me to shoot myself.
Give it up.
He really doesn't understand
what you're saying.
So now, the conditions are?
Hand over all the information
you've gathered about Banana Fish.
And give us Prof. Dawson.
You have 48 hours.
If you're late, Eiji Okumura will die.
And once that's done,
you're going back to the monsieur.
We're just going back to where we were.
I'll let you work for me
as the lowest of prostitutes.
You'll experience things
no other prostitute could ever endure.
Accept these terms,
and Eiji will remain safe.
He'll go back to Japan
and live a peaceful life.
And in time, he'll forget you.
You will lose everything.
The truth you sought,
your brother's revenge.
Your friends' trust and your freedom.
Fine.
You're fine with that?
You'll lose everything.
-A living hell
-Shut your face!
I said I'll do it, you vermin!
It's a deal then.
Wait, Blanca.
Let me punch you before you go.
Will it make you feel better?
Like hell it will!
But if I just let you go,
I won't be able to sleep in my grave.
I've told you time and again
to control that temper of yours.
-May I?
-Go ahead.
But don't damage him too much.
I still want to play with him later.
Don't worry. But I can't
just let him punch me either.
Come, boy.
What's wrong?
You can't punch me from that far back.
Your defense isn't too bad.
Damn it!
Your punches are too light.
I told you to keep your body well trained.
Shut up.
I don't want to be
some muscle maniac like you!
One of the vitals. I taught you that.
If I'd really meant it,
your heart would be crushed by now.
Incredible. Ash is like a baby before him.
This is the difference between
a pro and an amateur.
He should know so much.
The fool.
I'd like to have a word with him.
Of course. We'll give you some privacy.
You have no need to worry.
He's a first-class professional.
He won't let his emotions take over him.
This will be the last time
I give you a word of advice.
When I heard you turned
against the monsieur, I was surprised.
I thought you'd already gotten over
your past.
But I understood why
when I saw that Japanese boy.
You need to give it up.
A rabbit and a lynx can't ever be friends.
You heard what the monsieur said,
but he doesn't mean it.
He's the one that discovered you
and tried to polish you as a successor.
I was going to decline
when he asked me to train you.
But when I first met you,
I felt that this world was
the only place you could belong to.
So I decided to teach you
the means of how to survive in it.
You were a fine pupil.
I don't want to lose you, either.
I don't want to see you ruin yourself.
Go back to the monsieur.
And you'll have wealth, power, everything.
All you have to do is give one thing up.
Who are you to tell me this?
Everything I can get
at that old man's place is fake.
And you're still telling me
to play the role I'm given?
To pretend I don't notice?
That's right.
Then why did you hide away
in the Caribbean like a hermit?
Isn't it because you hated
the role you were given?
Leave me alone.
I'm happy now.
Because I know there's at least one guy
one guy who cares for me
and wants nothing in return.
I can't believe how lucky I am.
It's the happiest feeling in the world.
But it will lead you
to your destruction.
It's better than living amongst fakes.
I see.
Then have it your way.
Blanca.
I have just one thing to ask of you.
What is it?
Please don't kill him.
I beg you. Don't hurt him.
Please.
It means that much to you?
That's why you said
you wanted to punch me.
That, I can not do.
I must follow through with the role
I've been given.
But no matter what may happen,
I'll be praying for you.
Sorry for getting him hurt.
But he'll be safe from now on.
What do you mean?
Alex, I'll be gone for a while.
I'm leaving the rest up to you.
What are you going to do?
Ibe-san.
Once everything is done
and over with,
will you take me
to Japan?
I want to see the country he was born in.
Later.
Have you lost your mind?
-Do you realize how much we put into
-Shut up.
He's serious.
Is it Eiji? Is he in danger?
Max, you too?
Shut your face.
Go.
Go and
save your friend.
You're punctual. Do you have it?
Good. I knew you could do it.
All is done, Monsieur.
Wonderful work, Mr. Yut Lung. Admirable.
My job here is done.
Good work.
