Bara no nai hanaya (2008) s01e07 Episode Script

Episode 7

It's my wife's birthday.
Anything will do, so I'll just buy her flowers.
That should improve her bad mood a little.
I'm sorry but we don't sell roses.
A flower shop with no roses?
What is that?
I'm sorry.
From what I've heard,
this shop will be closing down soon.
Yes.
Isn't it because you have no business talent?
So how will you support yourself financially?
Right now
What are you saying?!
You're very rude.
Ah, I'm sorry.
I'm Hayashi, a lawyer.
Lawyer?
How many cats came altogether?
Let's write down the formula to fill in
the blank with the correct answer.
So does anyone know how to do this question?
Me! Me! Me!
Me! Me! Me!
Me! Me! Me!
Me! Me! Me!
Shiomi-san.
Yes!
Yes. That's correct.
Well done!
Okay, thank you, Shiomi-san.
Okay.
The next question
Me!
Me! Me! Me!
Again?
Yes.
What are you saying?
Turning up suddenly and saying all these.
Soon you'll receive a notice from the court.
But you'll save everyone trouble
if you give us the custody of your daughter.
Shizuku
Salt!
(Note: Salt is used for ritual purification of
people in the Japanese Shinto religion)
Salt! Salt! Salt!
I hope you understand that the family court's
examiner can easily tell with one glance
which environment is better suited for your daughter.
As a jobless father with no money
Eiji!
I sent Ono-sensei a message but
Go away! Go away!
Ah, I'm sorry.
I missed him
Hishida-san?!
I'm sorry!
I can't see
I'm sorry.
I wanted to answer a lot more questions
Really?
Ah! Daddy!
Daddy, sorry to keep you waiting!
Shizuku, how was it?
It was fun!
I was actually more nervous than her.
Thank you for giving in to Shizuku's request.
Mio-chan is number one.
The prettiest mother!
She's still not your mother.
Still?
Sorry, I didn't realise
What?
Nothing.
You're hiding something, aren't you?
Bara no nai Hanaya
Episode 7
Ah Sensei, hi.
You look beautiful today too.
So who's the one behind the lawsuit?
Sensei, are you still angry about what happened the other day?
Now isn't the time for this, right?
Yes. I'm sorry.
Is it your wife's?
Yes.
As expected
What do you mean by that?
I was told to keep this a secret.
I heard that Shizuku has been meeting up with that person.
Eh?
She wanted to borrow money from him so that
you can continue with the flower shop.
Money?
Yes.
She said he seems to be a very rich man and so on.
I'm sorry. I didn't expect it to turn out like this.
It's not Sensei's fault
What will it be like in this case?
This custody lawsuit.
Ahh
I think the father will probably win.
As long as there's no serious cause for concern.
Like?
Of course, the environment for the child will come first.
The examiner will come and scrutinize everything,
such the conditions of your childrearing.
They'll check on us.
Not just on Shizuku, but on me, too.
Well that
They'll find out that I gave up the flower shop
and will be moving into a small apartment.
What bad timing
Even so, a father still has the advantage.
I'm okay.
It doesn't matter for me.
What are you talking about?
Shizuku would of course prefer to be with you!
Is that so?
If Shizuku goes over, she'll be able to explore her potential.
Like piano, ballet or anything.
Stop that talking in that self-torturing manner!
Yes. He's right.
You agree too, right? Sensei?
Eiji, listen,
taking over a flower shop is also a respectable dream.
That flower shop will be gone.
I'm sorry.
No
I have no intention of going to court.
Eh?
Hey, Eji!
Orange juice might not go well with cakes.
Erm, Grandpa.
It's hard for me to say this but
What's wrong?
Just say it.
Well actually
due to some reasons, our flower
shop is going to be closed down.
Really.
The flower shop. is Daddy's dream, so I don't want to ruin it.
Yeah.
So so
So
You need money, right?
Yes!
If it's an amount that I can afford.
Really?
Yes! It should be okay for Grandpa.
Wah! This is great!
But I was actually thinking that you might not agree.
Why?
Well, because you guys never meet each other.
I was thinking maybe
Grandpa hates Daddy.
Come on, eat it.
Yeah.
You can finish it all up.
I can't eat so much.
Hello?! Hello?!
I can't hear you now.
Oh Go-chan, Go-chan!
How are you? Catch you later!
Let me get out of here first.
Hello?
Hello?
I'm in the toilet now. So what were you saying?
The video.
I want to meet the friend who took the videos for his wife.
And what can you do when you meet that friend?
I think she must have confided in that friend about him.
She must have been the one who actually
informed him about her death.
Well, I guess.
I want to ask her if he really did treat her so badly.
After she got pregnant like what the director said.
Cruelly abandoned her.
You've worked at a private detective firm
so you should be good at finding people.
Here you go again.
Wanting to clear their misunderstanding
and so on such useless effort?
You don't know for sure if it's useless.
I'm more concerned about that sum of money
Oh, the battery's low
Hello?
It's been so long since the last time Naoya showed up.
Maybe he managed to raise some money?
I heard he even had to borrow money to attend university.
Telling us he's the son of a hospital
director and acting like he's rich.
It was such an obvious lie!
This is like a new bullying style.
Mami and the others are worse.
Asking him to "buy us this" and "bring us there",
while knowing full well that he's broke.
It seems that he secretly took up a lot of part-time jobs!
Really? What is he going to do.
He's going to get killed by the Yakuza.
There's no paper.
Here you go.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Boo!
Ah!
Ah.
Sorry!
I didn't mean for this to happen.
Sorry, I was spacing out.
Ah sorry, here.
I'm really sorry.
I made some meat and potatoes.
Thank you.
Shizuku and Hishida-san are taking their bath right now.
Please come in.
It's true.
I can hear them singing.
This is kind of nice.
Hmm?
I mean,
how do I say it
Ah, the feeling of happiness?
Yeah.
I like to hear and watch such scenes from the sidelines.
Sidelines?
You won't be a part of it?
It's okay for me.
Why?
Maybe I don't like it.
You don't like being happy?
What does that mean?
When I'm a part of it,
I start to feel a little scared.
That it won't last long
That someday God will take this happiness away from me
I braced myself up like this.
That's why it's okay for me.
Because of what happened to your wife, right?
Hmm?
You were happy but suddenly
Hmm
maybe.
Do you feel this way about me too?
Eh?
Do you think so too?
Do you think that someday I will disappear too?
That
I don't know.
What do you mean by that?
When you say something like that, the
one who's here will also be gone!
Sorry, I was just going with the flow
What flow? Nothing's flowing!
Yes.
Even if it's flowing, stop it!
Stem the flow!
I'm sorry, I get it.
I'll do so next time.
Haa
This is disappointing.
It sounds like it doesn't matter even if I leave you.
Please don't leave.
Please don't leave me.
That's right. You should have said that from the start.
Yes.
Erm
Hmm?
If the potato is separated from the meat,
then it won't be meat and potatoes anymore, right?
Yeah.
Hold on.
Who's the meat and who's the potato?
(Note: "Imo" also means pimples/pockmarks.)
I'm the potato.
I'm the potato.
I'll go warm it up.
Morning, Daddy.
You're very early today.
You're emailing again?
Yeah.
I'm planning to tell the horticulturists
that the shop will be closing down.
Wellh, I'm also telling them that I'll work
hard and reopen one someday.
Hold on! Don't send it out yet.
Hmm?
I think we'll be able to get some money somehow.
Somehow
We'll be able to borrow it.
We can return a small sum every month.
Borrow without any strings attached?
Actually
Grandpa
Grandpa?
Mommy's father.
Really?
I met up with him secretly
I'm sorry about that.
Why? You don't have to apologize.
Eh?
Even though we've never really had
the chance to meet him properly,
he's a good person and I respect him.
I like him a lot too!
I see.
That's why.
Okay.
If that's the case, I'll pay him a visit
to discuss about the money.
Really?
Yeah.
It's useless for the poor to be stubborn, right?
Gusa
(Note: the sound of a heart being pierced.)
Ah! I'm sorry, are you hurt?
A little.
Where does it hurt? Here?
Here.
Pain, pain
fly away!
Ouch!
Huh?
My daughter's friend?
She might be her best friend or someone
like that from high school or university.
Well it's been so long
My wife might know.
I want to meet the girl who took the video.
I'll get closer to the truth if I can do that
It seems like you haven't heard about it.
I'm planning to take him to court soon.
Court?
Do you know about this?
Custody battle.
You're not taking Shizuku-chan!
Yeah.
Taking everything away from him
I can't say that I had this intention from the start.
Someone like that man's child
I've even thought of hating her.
But, to me
it's a fact that she's my precious biological granddaughter.
The one and only.
If there's something she wants,
I'll do everything I can to fulfill her wishes.
All my assets will belong to that child.
It's a far better environment than living
with that jobless, penniless man.
Weren't you the one who took that away from him?
Yes.
And you too.
But
But I can't let you do this.
To take Shizuku-chan away from him
I cannot let you
This matter is none of your business.
The money is still with me.
I can return that to him, if I do that
Stop bringing up something so foolish.
You father's operation is coming up.
You can just leave him to die.
What did you say?
In exchange
in exchange, this time I will hate you.
Even if I spend my whole life trying, I'll
definitely take my revenge on you.
Sensei, goodbye.
Goodbye.
Excuse me.
I am quite an old student.
No, no.
So what did you come here for today?
Um
Sensei is the only one whom I can discuss this with.
Yes.
Um
I know everything.
Every single thing.
About that, I told Eiji-san, but he wouldn't listen
He got cheated of his money and this time, it seems
that even Shizuku-chan will be taken away.
Sorry, what is this about?
Mio-san.
Ever since that person appeared,
everything
Her
Don't make a noise.
Where is it?!
Ah, sorry, sorry, sorry.
I didn't want to do this either.
But
I really need that money!
Where is the money?
WHERE IS THE MONEY?!
No, no, it's not like that.
DON'T MOVE!
DON'T MOVE!
Where? Where? Where?
Where is it?!
Stop it!
Stop it!
Damn, sorry.
Sorry.
Naoya-san.
Wait.
Mio-san? This is Ono.
Mio-san?
Mio-san? What is it? What happened?
Hey, hey, someday,
everyone will become stars.
No matter what we wish for, no matter what we gather,
in the end, we can't take those tangible things along with us.
But we can take love, courage and hope with us.
The stronger they are,
the brighter they can shine in the sky.
I'm here,
I'm here.
I am still right here,
I'm not gone yet,
I can still protect you.
Like when you're lost at night.
So, what are you actually looking for?
What are you trying to gather?
From now on,
if we have anything to say to each other,
let's do it through the lawyer.
This is to avoid any unpleasantness we
might feel after seeing each other.
Anyway, I heard from Hayashi.
that you want to avoid going to court.
Yes.
You've given up knowing that you can't win the case?
Or are you thinking of disappearing without
a trace with my granddaughter?
Just like you did to my daughter?
Or
are you going to say that
she decided to do it herself back then.
No.
She
I'm the one who made Shirato Mio get close to you.
Yes.
You knew it already?
I saw her at your hospital
I see
Yes.
Once,
just once, I'll listen to your explanation if you have one.
My daughter the person who killed my daughter
is definitely you, right?
Yes.
Welcome back.
Eiji-san,
I've actually told Ono-sensei
about Mio-san.
Do you blame me?
But even if you do, I won't back off.
Well, after everything I've said,
you still can't bring yourself to confront her, right?
Sorry.
Don't be sorry.
But why are you looking like you don't care?
It's an illusion.
What?
It's all an illusion.
Illusion?
Naoya was in this as well?
Yeah
I see
But it never occurred to me that Hishida-san
actually saw me at the hospital
Doing bad things really
It must have been painful.
It must have been very painful for you.
I would surely have given up halfway.
Saying "I don't care anymore"
Anyway, firstly you need to get the money back.
I'll look for Naoya-san.
Through his school or his friends
You would?
If you disappeared after you got the money,
I wouldn't have forgiven you.
'She's just a liar.'
I would've thought like that.
But you stayed.
But I went on to lie that I had the surgery.
Yes, you stayed.
I understand because I'm a woman as well.
That shows everything that you're feeling.
That feeling you have inside, Shiomi-san
might have felt it already.
That's why he didn't ask you anything or confront you.
Florist-san knows about me?
Hishida-san would of course have talked
with him before she came to me.
Of course he didn't believe it at first, but after being
urged by Hishida-san, he saw you at the hospital
I was just thinking of talking to you alone.
Can you take the gauze off?
I can't
I can't do this anymore
Is it really okay? Can you see my face?
Please don't leave me.
I'm home!
I'm home.
It's raining.
I forgot my umbrella so I dashed home.
Welcome back.
I'm home.
Ah, you got wet? I'll bring you a change of clothes.
Thank you.
Daddy, I'm home.
Shizuku, come and sit here.
What is it?
I've got something to tell you.
Ah, about the money, what did Grandpa say?
You said you like Grandpa, right?
Yes.
It's a big, nice house.
There was a piano as well, right?
I played on it!
You are going to live there.
Shizuku, you are going to live there from now.
Really?!
Eiji-san!
There are a lot of rooms.
Oba-chan is coming too, right?
Yeah, I made the request to him too
so that you won't feel lonely.
What are you talking about?!
Over there, the flowerbeds are even bigger
than the ones you had at the hilltop house.
You'll be going over as well.
Oba-chan, that's great, isn't it?
But then, what are you going to do with the shop?
I'm not going with you.
I'm going to close the shop and rent an apartment elsewhere.
What are you talking about? Then I'm going with you.
Daddy?
He's rich.
he can buy you everything you want,
and you can do whatever you want to do.
No, I don't want that. Why are you saying all these, Daddy?
Listen to me.
No, I really don't want to. I definitely don't want to.
Shizuku is wanted there.
He'll defnitely treat you very well.
Daddy
I've already decided.
Eiji-san
You are being too hasty.
Why? Is it because I'm willful?
Is it because I'm too naggy?
Yes.
You're too much of a bother.
I want to be alone.
Then I'll behave myself. I'll really behave myself.
I won't be a bother to you. I'll behave really well.
So Daddy
let's always stay together.
Okay? Daddy?
Okay? Daddy.
Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!
Daddy!
Eiji-san!
I'm totally sick of you!
Shizuku-chan!
Eiji-san!
Shizuku?
Shizuku?
She's not here
Shizuku!
So she's at your place
She was dripping wet so I made her take a
bath. After she calmed down she got tired.
She's sleeping on the futon now.
I'm sorry.
What happened?
It was totally my fault.
Shizuku didn't do anything wrong
No way.
You wouldn't do that for no reason.
The hearing for her custody
Yes that
I don't want that.
They'll check up on everything.
But you're her father
and you've brought her up properly all this while.
I don't want to go to court no matter what.
I'll give up Shizuku.
Florist-san?
That's better.
For both Shizuku and myself.
You're lying. How can you say that?
I'm not lying.
If I do that, I'll be able to see her occasionally;
as father and daughter.
He has promised me that.
It's not just about money, right?
What are you afraid of?
What are you actually afraid of?
I'm not afraid of anything.
That s a lie.
You said you'd never lie to me, remember?
It's okay for me.
It's okay for me.
Florist-san?
I've been expecting this to happen someday
Someday this would happen.
It must be God taking away
Florist-san?
I'm sorry.
Eiji, she's nowhere to be found.
Do you want to lodge a report with the police?
Sorry, I've found her.
Where did you find her?
Shizuku's at her place.
She's with Mio-chan?
Yes.
Oh, that's a relief.
Thank you.
What are you saying?
Let's go back.
Eiji.
What's wrong?
I slapped Shizuku.
I heard about it from Hishida-san.
I shouted at her.
I see.
It's the worst.
I'm the worst.
Well, there will be days like this, right?
You're doing this for her own good, right?
It's what they call a loving smack.
It's not.
It's not?
It doesn't matter what reason you have.
Parents hitting their child
it's unforgivable.
I see.
You went through the same thing as Shougo
when you were a kid.
Discipline
Loving smack
those are just convenient excuses.
But
The child will behave after this
and understand how their parents feel
There's no such thing.
Even if that's how you see it,
that's
only because the child
is scared
and behaving himself because of that.
Kids are not stupid! Because they are scared of their parents
they just act like they are listening.
It doesn't mean that they agree with what their parents say.
If you really love your child, you just have to talk to them.
Talk to them,
and if they still don't get it, you just have talk to them again.
You just have to talk to them for as many times
as it takes them to understand.
Such
infinite patience
is what true love is about.
But I got impatient.
I tried to force Shizuku to accept what I said.
I got impatient
Impatience won over love.
And
I promised myself when Shizuku was born.
That I would never use violence on her.
That I would never scold her loudly.
I swore
that I would never do such things.
And yet I
I
Stop it.
You're human too.
Parents are humans too.
No one's perfect.
When you mess things up,
just apologize later. Even if you look bad.
You just have to apologize to Shizuku.
Isn't it also good to show her your flaws sometimes?
That might also be what education is about too.
Eiji.
Yes.
Those wonderful lines I've just said
Yes.
Tell Ono-sensei.
Alright!
Let's go back.
It's so cold!
Anastomosis begins now.
(Note: Connection made surgically between adjacent blood vessels.)
Sensei?
Get Dr. Souma.
Quick!
Yes.
Was it after what happened to your daughter?
You
You're drinking too much.
It's too bad for Mio-san.
Her father
won't be able to have that difficult surgery.
So, what are you actually looking for?
What are you trying to gather?
I'm done bathing.
Okay.
I'm going to bed first.
Good night.
Eiji-san.
Yes.
About your wife's father taking Shizuku-chan's custody
If that really happens,
I don't mind going together with Shizuku just like you said.
Hishida-san.
It's okay.
I'm a tough woman.
Good night.
Good night.
Let's stop here.
We'll stop here!
Today,
I'll introduce my personal cameraman!
He encourages me and makes me feel better all the time.
Lend me. Lend~ me~.
Just for one second! Just a second.
Alright! Wait! Look at me!
He's shy!
He's looking embarrassed!
Look here!
Smile!
It's Eiji-kun!
Look, smile! Say cheese!
