You wouldn't want to get in trouble either, would you?
Wow, amazing.
I'm checking the compatibility of different breeds.
- Compatibility? - Yes.
If round-bodied goldfish that swim calmly are put together with livelier fish,
they may be bullied. So I should be careful.
Let's separate them.
Goldfish aren't able to escape on their own.
I'm glad you're safe.
Ready.
Nori.
Today, I'll be bringing home my junior colleague, Tsuta.
- What? - I told you before, remember?
That thing.
- But wait, I haven't... - Nori!
It's the only thing we can do now!
Right?
How nice, having such a well-made lunch made for you every day.
Want some?
May I?
Yeah, just this once. Try the Spanish mackerel.
Thank you!
DEEP-FRIED MINCED MEAT
YAKISOBA SANDWICH
Delicious.
Your wife really is a good cook.
Tell me, Tsuta.
Yes?
You wanna fuck my wife?
What are you talking about?
What?
- Are you okay? - Yeah, I'm fine.
- Thank you. - Here, I'll do it.
I'll help you with the store.
What?
It's my fault you're hurt. I'll do anything you say.
But if someone comes...
It's fine.
You've taken care of me. I want to repay you.
You don't need to do that.
Hello!
- Ran. - How are you, big brother?
This is my younger sister.
- She's my... - I'm Sakura Hiraga. I work here part-time.
I'm quite indebted to the manager.
Nice to meet you.
Seriously?
You can afford to hire someone?
I told you not to come here. Mom won't like it.
It's fine. I was worried about you and came to see how you were doing,
thinking your goldfish store might have closed down.
Don't worry. I'm doing fine.
Glad to hear that.
We've been married for eight years.
We want kids soon,
but we just can't get in the mood.
That's why you thought you might be aroused
by seeing your wife in the arms of another?
Yeah.
Why me?
You're the only one in our section that's single and has no girlfriends?
I'm asking you. Come on, I'm begging you, Tsuta.
I can't.
Your wife doesn't want to either, does she?
My wife wants kids too.
This would be for my wife as well.
What you're saying is crazy.
Please.
Help my wife and me get through this crisis. Please!
I'll have to hear what your wife thinks.
Tsuta!
Amazing! This place is huge.
Hey, Tsuta, did you know?
What?
Why the human cock is shaped the way it is?
What?
That unique shape is...
Please stop.
To scrape out other men's sperm.
In order to efficiently scrape out the sperm that ejaculated earlier...
it evolved into that shape.
Correct!
Delicious.
Every dish is delicious.
I can get you more.
- Thank you. - Okay.
How nice!
- What? - Do you remember?
We went out to eat eel together on the company family trip, right?
Yeah.
And your order was the only one that was forgotten.
Noriko shared her half-eaten grilled eel on rice with you.
My wife sharing her own grilled eel on rice with another man.
That made me so incredibly excited.
That night we really went at it in bed.
Dear.
So, why don't you two hold hands?
What?
That's not a big deal, is it? You don't like Noriko?
- It's not that, but... - Then, go ahead.
Noriko, go ahead.
I see.
I got a bit pissed off just now.
- I'm sorry! - No, it's fine.
Now, hold hands like lovers.
No, I can't do that!
It'll be fine.
Noriko.
Go ahead.
- Like this? - Yeah, just like that.
Good. Now...
Next, kiss.
Go ahead, kiss.
Go ahead.
Let's stop.
You're too drunk.
Okay, I got it.
- I'll leave you two alone for a moment. - What?
The mood is important for this.
- No, you'll be fine. - Dear!
I'm going home now.
No, please stay. My husband will...
If you're not comfortable with this, don't you think you should say something?
He just doesn't listen to people.
In college, he was my senior,
and every time we met, he'd say,
"I love you. I'll die if you don't go out with me."
He was so persistent.
That sounds like him.
Try this one too, if you like.
Thank you.
Delicious!
The thing is...
I thought I'd never meet someone
who needed me like that.
I'm rather plain, with no redeeming qualities.
That's not true.
You can cook these delicious dishes.
The lunch you make him always look so delicious.
And I'm always envious of him.
I'm glad to hear that. Thank you for your kind words.
No, seriously.
I think you're lovely,
Noriko.
"Noriko!"
That was great. That, just now, was so great!
I love how you've started calling her "Noriko."
Noriko, it's coming on. It's coming!
Dear!
Right, thanks, Tsuta!
See you tomorrow. Noriko!
Right.
Here, I'll do it.
- Thank you. - It's okay.
Your sister, she's cute.
- Really? - Yeah.
It looks like she really loves her big brother.
Why did you tell her you were a part-time worker?
Because I didn't know what else to say.
Tonight, I'll sleep in the store.
What?
You need room for your arm.
No, I'll be fine.
It won't heal if you don't have some good rest.
Right?
All right then, good night.
Good night.
Hello.
Welcome.
Hello.
Can I help you?
Yeah, I'm looking for something.
What kind of goldfish?
Goldfish?
Of course, it's a goldfish shop.
Are you hurt?
What?
Some kind of quarrel?
That's no good. You've got to be careful.
"Sakura Ping Pong Pearl."
This is nice.
Sakura.
My wife's namesake.
Give me this one. I'll take it home.
Haruto.
Was that...
Yes. He bought a Sakura Ping Pong Pearl and left.
Why?
Why would he buy a goldfish?
He's not gonna take care of it.
Should I have said, "This is beyond you. I won't sell it to you?"
That's...
If a customer says he wants something,
you can't not sell it to him, can you?
Are you worried about him?
What?
You can...
You can go home if you want to.
That's quite a big problem.
Many women have trouble dealing with their husbands' sexual fetishes.
But that sounds quite difficult for you.
NORIKO HOKABE
Yes.
You are the type of person
who finds meaning in life when you are needed.
You are afraid to refuse things, aren't you?
What?
Yes, that's right.
But then, you'll be restrained by your husband,
and you won't be able to move.
NORIKO HOKABE
PUER DARK
You should be more free.
Free?
But...
That's great.
Now, her breast next.
- Is that okay? - It's fine.
I'm not asking you.
- You're asking Noriko. - Please...
Now, kiss.
I'm sorry.
Kiss.
Mr. Tsuta...
That's enough, Tsuta.
Thanks.
Noriko, let's go.
Come on.
I'm sorry for crying out his name.
It's fine. Tsuta's a good guy, right?
You like him, right?
Noriko...
- Noriko! - Taro!
Hello. What is it?
Nori. I'm sorry, I forgot my lunch. Can you bring it here?
All right.
We don't need lunch for Tsuta today.
What?
He's taking a sick day from work due to a cold.
Later.
Big brother, are you there?
Hello.
Where's my brother?
He's delivering a fish tank to a customer.
I see.
Yes.
Why is the shop closed even though you're here?
We're taking inventory today.
I see.
Ms. Sakura Hiraga.
Yes?
Please break up with my brother.
You two are together, aren't you?
I can see it in his face. It's so obvious.
You're much older, aren't you?
Besides...
I feel sorry for my brother,
having to lie about his relationship.
So...
please break up with him.
Yes?
Hello.
603 TSUTA
What?
I heard you're taking a sick day from work because of a cold.
Here, please eat this.
About your address,
we received a New Year's card from you, so I got it from that.
Sorry for bothering you. Please take care.
Wait.
Actually...
I don't have a cold.
This hamburger steak is great!
The cheese really goes well with it.
The day you came to our place, my husband kept asking,
"It felt good when Tsuta touched you, didn't it?
Who's better at it, me or Tsuta?"
He only asks me that kind of thing.
"You're better at it than he is.
You're the only one I love."
When I tell him that, he gets happy like a child.
I'm sorry.
Why are you apologizing to me?
Because, together with him,
I hurt your feelings.
I won't visit your place anymore.
I think that's best.
Whenever I see you...
Whenever I see you eating something I prepared,
I get aroused somehow.
That's weird, isn't it? But...
If I keep seeing you,
I won't be able to stop myself.
I've only ever been with him.
I'll make you lunch again.
Mr. Tsuta.
I feel sorry for my brother,
having to lie about his relationship.
So...
please break up with him.
TOYODA GOLDFISH
I'm back.
Sakura?
So, you finally came back.
You're no fool.
Something that could tarnish our salon's image, like infidelity,
no way you'd keep it going.
You wouldn't want to cause trouble for our staff, right?
Don't worry. I'm not gonna hit you.
It's no use getting all worked up about the goldfish seller.
If you apologize properly,
I'll let you off this time.
What's wrong with you?
Where's your "I'm sorry"?
What goldfish need most is clean water.
What?
If you keep it in a small bowl, change the water every day.
Don't overfeed it. Keep a stable temperature.
Be sure to remove any slime from the bowl.
If you don't, the goldfish will get sick soon.
Anyways, observe your goldfish closely.
If it's listless, it'll get better if you put it in saltwater.
The first three days are hard on its internal organs,
so, don't feed it.
I'll give you some notes later about how to care for it.
What?
Today...
I only came here to help out the goldfish.
Hey, don't fuck around with me!
Change the water every day?
I'm busy! I don't have that kind of time!
With the way you do it,
the goldfish will end up dying in agony in dirty water.
Like I care about that.
Who cares if one or two of these things die?
Stop it!
Don't touch it.
I'm not...
I'm not coming back here again.
I am not...
I am not junk!
You can...
You can go home if you want to.
There you are.
Have you eaten already?
I brought it back.
Goldfish can't escape on their own.
What's wrong, Haruto?
Did something happen?
No.
Nothing happened.
Welcome home, Sakura.
I'm home, Haruto.
