- Good Morning.
- Hi.

Kosuke's behind us.

Sorry about last night.
I was held up.

I'll make it up to you.

Next week I'll contact you

Good morning

"Kosuke Hasegawa - In"

Hello

- Good morning - Good morning

- How do I look ?

"Yotsuya Kwaidan, The Play"



5 and 4. Odd number.

Dealer rolls! Place your bets!

Hello, Sir.

What is it?

Your body

it smells...

Is it blood ?

Borrowed money should
be returned.

But some people
forget to pay it back.

A loan from a blind masseur
is taken lightly.

I'm not a noble samurai
like yourself, Sir.

For me

I can only depend on money.

True, I am a samurai.



But without money or rank

I feel like I'm in a dungeon
without sunlight.

Sir

You want to play around?

Ah, sounds good.

You ugly bitch.

Asshole.

What are you doing, give it back.

Where'd you get it?

A guest gave it to me.

Give it back

Give it back to me

Sir

Who's your new woman?

When I'm with you

time passes in the
blink of an eye.

You want to leave already

If I'm not home before Father

he won't ever let me go out again.

If you had a comb like this...

I'd always hold onto you, Iwa.

Although my daughter
wants to marry you

I will not leave you my family's fortune.

Since her mother's death

I worked hard to raise her on my own.

I won't let a sleaze like you
have my precious daughter.

Take this money and
forget about Iwa for good.

Do you think I do not know

about your years of idleness ?

Your despicable nature

You and your shifty friends

conspire to con people

You'd even kill for money

How despicable

You give the samurai a bad name.

Shame on you.

What's so funny

You think I'm worth so little.

You're incorrigible.

You brute!

I'm not listening to
your nonsense!

you old fool.

How dare you !

Careful, you'll catch a cold.

Is your father still missing?

Poor Iwa.
You must feel miserable.

As of today

There's been no news for a month

I'm sure he's out
there somewhere.

Oh, Iemon.

Your father must have ridden off
for some important business

He's just gotten held up...

and has yet to come back.

It breaks my heart to see
you so sad.

Do not worry.
I'll ask around for you.

Iemon

When I'm with you
I feel I can cope.

I feel so reassured.

I want to be by your side all the time.

Iwa

Do you mean that we should
get married?

Yes

I too wish for this

But I did not get your father's permission

Okay ?

As he has no sons to
continue the family's line,

he should be happy
to have a successor.

Being the head of this household
might help you

find employment.

You brute

No one will listen to your nonsense.

You old fool.

How dare you !

Starting a family...

Is that happiness?

I guess.

You're have to keep up your strength.

to be able to finish this job.

otherwise it just won't work out.

Don't catch cold

What ?

Don't catch cold.

This is unbearable.

I'm not worthy of you.

I'm extremely sorry

Oh my god, I'm sorry.

Sorry, are you alright?

I'm fine.

Let's have a break.

Take a break

Iwa

You seem to resent me.

Absolutely not

Since we were married two years ago

I've never looked for work...

...nor brought any money home.

"I gave you a baby boy."

"I've been sick
since he was born."

"But I'm the one
who does the chores."

"and prepares the meals"

The resentment is written
all over your face.

You in here?

Here, it'll relieve the pain.

Thanks, I'll manage.

He actually kicked you
during a rehearsal?

Never mind.

What do you see in the man?

How is your wife and kid?

Do you get along ok?

We have our ups and downs.

You look very happy

Don't be fooled.

A man is easily tempted.

Just to be clear.

Married men don't interest me.

How direct of you.

Keep your mind on the job.

Sometimes

I wish that the play
was my real life.

I don't.

This is unbearable.

I'm not worthy of you.

I'm so very sorry

Women really are something...

So you know all the lines!

Yes, just in case.

You're so prepared.

Thank you very much

Is your back ok?

I'll go change clothes

Are you ok?

Alright

About the performance

I think I lack a bit of confidence

but I

but I think I'll be able to plum through

that's how it is acting together

Same with the others

Anyway

I want to understand

the mood

I see

Please teach me

I believe you're Mr.
Iemon Tamiya.

Who are you?

I'm a nanny for Mr. Ito's
daughter Ume.

My name is Maki

Would you accompany me
to the Ito mansion?

It would be in your interests
if you came.

Master Kihei Ito

wishes to speak with you
face to face.

I'll leave it up to you,
Grandfather

Alright

Ume, I'm happy for you.

Sir, step this way please.

Thank you for agreeing to come.

I apologize for bringing
you here like this.

What can I do for you?

What a shame a good
samurai like you isn't employed!

I see your extraordinary skill

I'd like to propose that you
become part of the Ito family.

I wonder if you'd agree to be
Ume's husband.

But I have a wife and a child.

And your daughter

appears to be so young.

She's 16-years old

With due respect I must decline
your proposition.

Your honesty

is very gallant.

Although Ume can be childish at times

at 16 year she's mature enough
to be a woman.

She saw you one day
when she was in town

and she can't shake you
from her mind.

She lost her parents
at a young age.

She's so dear to me I'd
do anything for her.

But Ume has never asked
anything of me.

Until now when she fell in...

...love.

Love

Yes

I see the difficulty

but in any case I ask you

Consider it

Mr. Tamiya.

You deserve a life
worthy of a samurai.

Pardon me for being rude.

But at the present,
you are next to worthless.

A person like you

should be a dignified warrior

If you become Mei's husband

a position will be at your fingertips

Your wife will understand.

A samurai's wife would
encourage her husband's career.

In short

You have nothing to worry about.

I've figured out a plan

to act safely.

Please allow me to handle it.

May I come in?

Miyuki, I'm done for today.

I'll see you tomorrow.

See you then.

Miyuki

I hope you don't mind me
telling you this.

But I got into acting because I
I've always worshipped you

Ok

You're...very courageous

Thank you

I'll be going.

See you tomorow.

It's ok now.

Miyuki, are you in there?

The car is ready...

I have left.

We're there now.

"Miyuki calling"

Thank you for taking me back

What's wrong?

You're back

I just came here for
some shirts.

Oh.

You want to take a shower?

Why such a good mood?

Because you've stopped by, Kosuke.

We have a day off next week.

Any plans?

I got invited to go to Izu.

For work?

With those TV producers
I once worked with.

As soon as I'm done
I'll be back.

I'll be waiting for you.

Wow, that's a lot of pasta
you've made.

Want some?

"Home Pregnancy Test"

"Negative"

A samurai's wife would
encourage her husband's career.

In short...

There's nothing to worry about.

Welcome back

How do you feel?

Iemon

Although it's not a sure thing...

I might be offered a position.

Really?

If father was still here...

I'm sure he would have been glad

I've thought about your position.

And you can wear this
when you report.

It has our family crest,

a ying yang insignia.

Where there's light
there's shadow.

Where there's shadow
there's light.

All elements in the universe

throughout eternity

will always have
a light and a shady side.

What is it?

How clever.

He's smiling at his daddy, Iemon.

Good little boy.

That's all.
We're finished for the day.

Tomorrow will be a day off.

We'll resume rehearsals
in two days at 2:00 PM.

Thank you

Sorry

I'm still in Izu.

I see.

That's how it goes.

Goodbye

Goodbye

It's me or her.

I love you

If it's true

then marry me.

After the marriage

we'd go to America

You wouldn't have to work as an actor.

...you could help out
Dad with his businesses.

He's got lots of restaurants
and properties.

Just as many as in Japan.

We could live happier

Acting is all I've known...

since childhood.

I won't...

I won't let Miyuki have you back.

Someone

Someone is watching us

You scared me

I'm back

You're back

Go eat.

I've already eaten

I'm sleepy

You've returned

Maki came all this way
to bring me a gift.

Please thank her.

Let me express my thanks
for my husband's good fortune.

We are extremely grateful
to master Ito

I hope he will continue to
support Iemon's career.

Thank you so much.

I'll pass it on.

It appears Iemon is very worried
about your health

So master Ito got some medicine
today in Nanban

and wanted it brought to you
as soon as possible.

Take one packet a day

I don't deserve
such expensive medicine...

Don't worry.
It's for your husband as well.

We want him to be able
to work his best.

To do so...

You must be in good health.

Thank you for your kindness

Iwa, we have no reason
to reject their generosity.

Take it

I do not know how to thank you.

Oh what a cute baby

Tamiya, sir, perhaps you could
show me my chores

Master Ito awaits you.

You may please go back to work.

I'm fine

I drank the medicine.

I'm feeling

the medicine seems
to have taken effect.

You could...

...show a little feeling.

That drug you gave her...

It's not fatal.

Rest assured.

Except...

Men usually despise

despise things that are ugly.

Are you in pain?

There, there.

Does it still hurt?

Welcome home.

I was just nursing Ichinosuke

when he suddenly got sick
and threw up.

I wonder if it's the medicine.

Are you are trying to say

the drug is poison?

I dare say not.

I've taken this medicine
for two days now

And I know I must take it but...

But what?

The medicine may
just be working slowly

It's an expensive drug.

You have to take all of it.

Or it would be disrespectful
to master Ito

I did not think you cared
so much for my health.

You troubled yourself
to get this medication.

How fortunate I am.

Tell master Ito

how grateful I am able
for these drugs.

How grateful I am able
for these drugs.

Kayo.

Yes?

Kosuke should be staying over tonight

So don't bother picking me up tomorrow.

Fine.

But if you change plans,
just let me know.

I'll call you then.

Ok.

If there's anything I can do for you

I'm happy to do it.

Thank you

Hey you...

I need to ask you
to hurry back home.

I want to show you something

Sorry

It's very bad.

About Iemon...

What would have made him happy?

Nothing would.

You're afraid of something ?

No

I'm afraid.

I can hear...

What ?

See you tomorrow.

Miyuki

What's she up to.

Miyuki

You're back.

I'm not worthy of you.

What?

I'm not worthy of you.

I'm so sorry.

What are you saying?

Let's sleep?

We're going to the hospital

To the hospital !

I'll just sleep it off.

What are you saying ?

We're going to the hospital.

I can't find our baby.

I know he's in there.

I looked all over

but couldn't find him.

What ?

You know how important
this play is for both of us.

We need our sleep.

Or...do you want to make love?

That's enough.

It's all my fault.

- I'm not worthy of you.
- Don't come any closer.

All my fault.

What are you talking about?

- I'm not worthy of you.
- Stay away.

All my fault.
I'm so sorry.

Don't get close to me.

- All my fault
- Stay away.

Really sorr....

- Good morning

You're really early today.

Can I have your attention, everyone.

We still cannot find Miyuki

So we're going to use an understudy.

Please let's all get ready.

Is that ok with you?

Sure.

"Miyuki Goto - Out"

Please, try to be more aggressive.

Getting started

When I'm with you,
time passes in the blink of an eye.

You want to leave already?

If I'm not home before Father

he'll never let me
leave the house.

If you had a comb like this...

I'd always be with you, Iwa.

It hurts

It hurts

It hurts

Good evening

It's Takuetsu, the masseur.

Miss Iwa.

How are you tonight?

It's kind of you to visit but

I'd prefer to be alone this evening

Iemon will be home soon
and he'll want his supper.

Mr. Iemon

I wonder if he'll
come home tonight.

Takuetsu...?

Ms. Iwa!

I've always desired you

Leave me alone.

Beautiful Ms. Iwa.

Let me go.

Forget your husband tonight.

You see...

Mr. Iemon knows about this.

He said I could have you.

I guess he wanted a better life.

The samurai can be

quite heartless.

in getting promoted

He sacrificed you and the baby

for the wealthy estate
of the pretty young lady

he married.

Ms Iwa.

Ms Iwa

You filthy animals.

I caught you fornicating with my wife.

Sir, this isn't what
you promised!

Iemon

Masseur...I saw you

Tricking a married woman
into a shameless act.

And you're the adulteress
who let herself be tricked.

You are all immoral.

I had to punish you both.

Iemon

You're mine and mine only.

What's wrong?

Ume

Will you answer.

Iwa

I hate you

Iemon

You monster.

Ume

There's nothing to worry about.

I've figured out a plan

to make things go smoothly.

You're so undignified.

You've already fallen into hell, Iemon.

I'll have to bite off your head to show you

You've now gone to hell.

For the pain

you inflicted on me!

It's horrible

There was hardly a breeze.

It flew in from over there.

Ok, where's the head?

Well,sir... we couldn't find it.

You mean...?

"Kosuke Hasegawa - Out"

He's late again.

Ok, that's fine.

You others get downstairs.

Good

Miyuki.

Kosuke isn't here.
Do you know why?

No, maybe he's got a bad headache

Kayo you know?

No, I do not.

Kayo, can you get the kimono?

Good

This play

Make sure it goes ahead
no matter what.

Director Otaki

Has he come yet?

No, he hasn't

The police came

- The police?
- Yes

Miyuki

If the rehearsal ends early tonight

How about a drink?

It's been a long time.

If we finish early

You should go home

What a shame.
