try to come
Try to?
Why didn't you say so sooner?
You're being quite irresponsible
Don't you think so!
You brought this proposal
to me. Right?
- Well, yes...
- Then show more responsibility
If this is the result,
I shouldn't have met her
Why did you introduce her to me?
When a man falls in love
at first sight...
When a man falls in love
at first sight, it's serious
Right?
Is what I'm saying unreasonable
or wrong?
Oh, I'm disgusted!
Let's drink elsewhere
She said she found a painting
of an ox. Wait a little more
We've already waited for two hours!
Painting be damned! Let's go
Just one more drink...
No, thanks. I'm full of liquid
You'll tell me now she'll try to come
She won't come
I'm disgusted!
Oh, well, it's good to see him
so healthy
Yes, it's good...
...but he ought to tell me
he's going out
Yes...
...after making us worry so much,
but he's so easy-going
And just this morning he said
he'd gone to the brink of hell
Telephone...
Hello. Yes, it is
Yes. Yes
What?
We'll be right over
Nori-chan!
Who was it?
- Father is ill
- Who called?
Sasaki in Kyoto
Wants us right over...
a girl's voice
What's wrong?
I don't know,
but Father has collapsed again
That's awful
- We must go immediately
- What is it?
Father's ill again. Go with him
Let's go
They're taking so long
They should be here by now
Yes
But I lost out
What?
There goes my mink stole
I should have got it sooner
I saw a lovely one at Kawaramachi
Get George to buy it for you
He can only afford
a handbag at the most
They're here
Good evening
It's George
No, not George. It's Harry
I'm going
Come home early tonight...
...even though you've got a date
I'll be back early
I'll be going, Mother
Oh, what a terrible day
We shouldn't have gone there
It wasn't such a good day
as you thought
How unlucky
And it was so hot...
Good evening
Good evening
Good evening
I'm Kohayagawa
Oh, please come in
How is he?
Please...
It happened so suddenly
It was 8:23
He looks peaceful
What time was it...
He came and we went out together
He wanted to go to Osaka,
but I made him return
While I was washing my hands,
he sat here
Suddenly he looked ill
and held his chest
I see
I called a doctor right away...
...but it was too late
I see
He suffered terribly
Is that right?
Did he express any dying wishes?
He merely repeated twice:
"So this is the end"
I see
It happened so quickly
Life is so fleeting, isn't it?
Aren't there a lot of crows today?
Yes, there are
Someone must have died
Perhaps
But no smoke is rising
from the crematorium chimney
You're right
You must be tired
No, not very
Such problems you have
Yes
What about the company?
I'm thinking about it.
It's given me headaches
Will you merge?
I suppose we will
Too bad
Father was worried about it
It'll be better
if a big company takes over...
...and I get a job there
A salaried man, eh?
Well, I suppose...
I thought Father
was undependable...
...but the House of Kohayagawa
was preserved...
...because of him
Poor Hisao
I'd hope things wouldn't change...
...until after you got married
I thought it over all night long
I think it's best
that I do what I desire
What do you mean?
Now that Father's dead...
...I should marry
the man arranged for me
But I'd be dissatisfied
It might help
the Kohayagawa family...
...but if I don't listen
to my feelings...
...no doubt I'll regret it later
I don't know what to do
What will you do?
I think...
Yes?
I'll go to Sapporo
I see
I personally thought
that would be the best
Do you really think so?
Yes
You're young.
You must have a happy life
You check the day?
Have you taken care
of the obituary notice?
It'll be in the papers
Then, that's taken care of
Oh, lunch for the guests
I've arranged that. What about cars?
Unnecessary.
It's just across the river
It's close. Let them walk
Eight people?
No, nine
Oh, it's the lady from Nagoya...
Hello. Please, over
