Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again (2024) s01e05 Episode Script

1
I don't know who this "Grandma"
you are referring to is,
but are you meaning to say it's me?
Ine Sasaki.
That's my name.
So you're not actin' or jokin'
You really don't know me?
Correct.
Well, I'll be damned.
Her memories also turned young again.
If she's referring to herself as Sasaki
Then she's from back
when she hadn't met me?
When I woke up,
it seemed like the world
a century later
Depending on the situation,
I should've panicked.
However, judging from the wedding ring,
it seems like what you said is true.
I might be the strange one.
Mr. Saito.
The one who proposed first
was me, right?
I'm really curious.
Why did I fall for you,
and spend half a century with you
in this world?
I have a proposal.
Could you
make me fall for you again?
A STORY ABOUT A GRANDPA AND GRANDMA
WHO RETURNED BACK TO THEIR YOUTH
EPISODE 5: GRANDMA'S MEMORIES TURNED YOUNG AGAIN
Grandma's Memories Turned Young Again.
I'm sure ya have a lot to process
after losing memories,
but we should eat for now.
What a weird mess kit.
This is a machine called rice cooker
that can cook rice with electricity.
Try some of the rice.
What is this?!
This isn't the rice I know!
Pretty good, I guess.
Right?
It's just leftovers,
but let's eat.
STARE
STARE
I'm relieved.
Some things haven't changed
in future Japan, I see.
Y-Yeah.
Thanks for the food.
TIME TRAVELER GRANDMA
TIME TRAVELER GRANDMA
Natto in a container of mysterious ingredients
TIME TRAVELER GRANDMA
This soy sauce bottle's design is amazing!
What's up with that curious look?
I was just a bit surprised
I'm never used to seeing the head of
a family doing housework
Oh
My father was a domineering husband
HEY, GIMME SOME BOOZE!
He was a bad example.
I used to be so bad at cooking,
I left most of it to Grandma
But other than that,
I can do anything.
That's amazing.
This much ain't amazin'.
You've always been workin'
at the field with me
Then, I can't just gulp down
some booze
after a day's hard work alone.
I guess times are changing now.
We had always been like that.
We just hated it
if we couldn't make compromises.
The daily life that
has continued for years
I guess that's what it is.
Even when he's doing housework,
he's not showing off or asking to be praised.
KITCHEN WRAPPER
This wrapper thing is so amazing!
KITCHEN WRAPPER
It just keeps coming!
KITCHEN WRAPPER
Yer wastin' our precious wrapper, so stop.
Hourglass? Turning young again?
What do you mean by that?
How do I explain
Anyway, you'll know after you sleep.
Well, this is what it is.
Did ya have the hourglass dream, Grandma?
N-No. Hang on, are you really Mr. Saito?
You really turned young again!
Remember anything
after seein' me like this?
Um
I'm sorry. I don't.
Sorry for startlin' you.
Me too.
How strange.
I thought I had no recollection
about your look and voice now
But I wonder
When I look at your lonely back,
it makes me feel like
I have to feel the pain too
The reason for this strong wish
Are they our children and granddaughter?
Yeah!
We made them!
We never fight,
it's all filial piety.
All our grandkids are kind and cute!
Is that so?
They would be shocked
if they found out I lost my memories.
Grandpa, I came to visit!
Oh, noes! I forgot Yoshiaki
and his family is comin' today!
What do I do?!
Mr. Saito I mean, Grandpa.
I'll act as their grandma today.
How about your accent and memories!
Please back me up for that.
I don't know anything about
my son and grandchild.
However, even in different generations,
the role of a mother shouldn't change.
It's a mother's job
to not make her children cry, right?
Huh? Your hair's all black, Grandma!
I miss ya, Mino!
ACTING STAR
How's your body doing?
As peachy as ya can see.
I'm also peachy, mind you!
Say what?
Ah, well
It's from the culture festival.
The other day, Grandma was wearin'
a uniform at Mino's school.
She's been talkin' like she was
in the high-class school since.
Y-Yes, that's right.
What did future me do?!
I see. Okay, then.
It's so refreshing
seeing you speak politely!
I think it's cool!
Right?
- So she is my grandchild
- Hey, Grandma!
- So she is my grandchild
- Hear me out!
- A kind girl who cares about her grandparents.
- Dad and Mom
- A kind girl who cares about her grandparents.
- said something interesting in the car!
- And she has my blood inside.
- And she has my blood inside.
I wonder what this feeling is.
Grandma?
Grandma
So cute
Mom, could you let Mino go already
No can do.
Grandma, you're so warm!
CURRY ROUX
If we cut the ingredients and put this in,
we can make rice curry
Is that true?
Yeah, it's true.
I heard some noise there.
Are you okay?
Everything's good here!
Don't tell me ya forgot how to cook?
My attendants always did it for me.
I can at least cut the vegetables.
You must be laughing inside
that I can't cook.
No way I'd do that to you now.
You don't wanna make 'em worry, right?
So you can cook, Mr. Saito?
Well, I can at least make curry.
Tell me how to use a knife, please.
Gladly!
Don't spread your fingers.
Yeah, pull the knife.
When I'm in this kitchen,
it feels somewhat nostalgic.
The meal by the "Grandma"
that I ate yesterday was so good.
What caused me to act so much,
despite my being bad at the kitchen?
I had been thinking about that
But now, I feel like I understand.
It must be because of you.
The potatoes are too big,
or is it just me?
Nah, it's just you, Mino.
GRANDMA KEEPS PEELING THE CARRO
GRANDMA KEEPS PEELING THE CARRO
Grandma keeps peeling the carrot.
YOSHIAKI SAITO
YOSHIAKI SAITO
I got a perfect score in the exam, Mom!
I got a perfect score in the exam, Mom!
Attaboy. Ya done well.
YAMADA - SAITO - SUZUKI
There are things you can't achieve
YAMADA - SAITO - SUZUKI
with simply working hard.
Saito, you need to give us results.
Yes.
Just working hard isn't enough!
Work harder!
The company's going to be bankrupt?!
If this keeps going, that is.
The branches are also going
down due to depopulation.
It won't be long before that happens.
What's yer plan?
Worst case scenario,
ya can work in our field.
No
I can't trouble you any more.
Don't worry, it'll work out.
No, I'll figure something out.
It's simply because I didn't work harder.
If working harder fails
I'll just have to work even harder.
Yoshiaki.
You don't have to work so hard.
As long as your superiors
keep on pickling your
kindness and hard work
Try as hard as you might,
the situation won't change.
You're a human,
so you can lose heart.
It's also important to not work hard.
Just remember to get back up.
So
Feel free to escape here anytime.
No matter how old you are,
you'll always be our son.
So, that dratted boss of mine
He really doesn't look like me
He looks like my dad, though
Hey, Mom.
Yeah?
You
You're not Mom, are you?
I guess I can't say for sure
You're Mom, but you're not Mom
Oh, a watermelon's floating!
I don't know
if he's drunk or sober.
Your appearance and glance are different,
but you look like Mom
when I was young.
Besides, what you said earlier
Feel free to escape here anytime.
Just the usual Mom in the flesh
You sure are Mom
I really am no match
for my own son.
So I proposed to you here?
Yeah. Recall anything.
So far, none.
Can I propose something?
Oh?
If we reenact
what we did in the old days,
I might remember something.
So I grabbed your hand first?
Yeah.
I'll kill you if you lie.
All right, all right.
I'll do as you said, then.
Like this?
Y-Yeah?
Well?
Recall anything?
Did I really do this?
Yeah, that's right?
Can I say something?
What is it?
This is stupid!
You must be lying!
Unbelievable!
My body itches
Well, uh, sorry
AWKWARD WALK HOME
AWKWARD WALK HOME
Aww
AWKWARD WALK HOME
Awkward walk home.
HIROSAKI CHUO UNIVERSITY MEDICAL SCHOOL HOSPITAL
Sis, I'm scared of the lightning.
Can I sleep with you?
Geez, what a spoiled girl you are.
Sis?
The current of the times sure is cruel.
I rushed here after hearing
my sister is still alive,
but all she could remember was Mother
There's no one in this world
I can be selfish too.
Someone I can be selfish to
He's been silent all the time
All he's doing is just sit there, in silence.
Are you trying to say,
"You're not alone?"
You don't have to be so considerate.
I'm used to being alone
Being alone
I wanna take a leak,
but I can't stand
She used to be good at piano.
Is that so?
She sometimes would sit by the piano.
Although, she doesn't play it at all.
Grandma?
I'll play anything you play.
So go on, pick a song.
I'll go with Furusato, Sis.
My sister now
doesn't remember about
her hometown or me.
She might also no longer
know who she is.
I still dream of those days even now
No way!
I'll be waiting
for you here again tomorrow.
Okay! Promise me!
You're so good at piano, Ine!
I don't know who you are,
but you're so good at piano.
They've been playing
for an hour now
No way we can stop this!
Sorry, Grandma,
I have a union meeting tonight,
so go on and eat without me.
In the end, weeks have passed
without my memories back.
It's my first time being alone.
As of now, I don't seem
to be falling for him.
Never mind that, he himself doesn't
approach me so actively.
He's down a point for leaving
the amnesiac me alone.
The curry he left me
isn't so good either.
Another point down.
Don't you understand?
I feel uneasy without you now.
Uneasy?
In the past weeks,
I've learned how to live in this era,
so even without him,
there shouldn't be anything
making me uneasy.
And yet
Why am I feeling so uneasy?
He doesn't have to come back soon,
but I'm longing for his return?
I'm beginning to see his worth
just by his staying by me?
I'll never leave you behind at all.
So don't worry.
Grandpa?
When I was sixteen,
I proposed to him.
I meant it as a joke,
but he kept coming
to the shrine every day.
Don't go to that shrine.
My relatives were on bad terms
with his parents,
so I was forbidden from seeing him.
In order for us to have
an official relationship,
he bowed and bowed
And when we were allowed
to meet after some time,
his face was full of bruises.
I just had a fight with my dad.
Then, I fell seriously ill,
and got bedridden.
He paid for my hospital bill, all of it.
Mr. Shozo, you can't do this
You'll only be unhappy with me.
I don't care how irrational it might be.
I love you, Ine.
Even if yer unhappy
for a thousand years,
I just have to give ya
the same amount of happiness.
Even if that means giving my life as well.
Finally, he fulfilled that promise.
I'm home, Grandma.
Make me fall for you again?
What am I even saying?
Even if I lost my memories of him
for so many times
It's just the same thing again!
Grandpa!
Grandpa!
Welcome back.
Grandma
THE NEXT DAY
How can ya be so calm?
To me, the you in the past,
and the you now matter a lot.
I didn't want to decide which one's better,
the you with or without memories.
By the way, Grandma?
Yes?
Yer fingers are touchin' mine
I mean to do that
