Nagoya.
She's his younger sister
Of the Osaka gentleman?
No. Now try to remember
The Osaka gentleman's wife
and the Nagoya sister are...
No, no, I'm wrong
The Osaka gentleman's wife
is the Old Master's...
The Old Master is an adopted son.
She's his wife's sister
I see. It's very complex
The Kohayagawa family is involved
You must be tired.
Shall I lay out your bedding?
No, never mind. How about you ?
No thanks
Why not rest for a while?
The train ride must have been tiring
No, I'm all right
Have you been busy lately?
Yes, rather
And you ?
I'm busy as usual
How is he?
He's resting quietly
That's fine
He must get well
It's hard on you , isn't it?
It's a critical time
Yes, he must somehow get well
No attack has occurred
He must have passed the danger point
Yes
I hope so
It's five already
If he's going to live,
I want to return to Nagoya
I left some unfinished business
I'd like to go back, too
Are you busy?
Yes, a stockholders' meeting
is scheduled
-You , too?
-Yes
It's not imperative I go...
...but I'm having a new plant built
I wish you would both stay then
Anything could happen
Yes, it's better if you both stay
You can't tell...
What's wrong?
What happened?
Oh, Father!
Father
What's wrong?
Are you all right?
Oh, I slept well.
I must relieve myself
What happened?
Is he all right?
I stopped him, but...
I'm glad...
I'm so glad he's well
So glad
Father has recovered his health
Indeed
It seems like it was a dream
You don't throw good balls
This one will be good
-Where's Minoru -chan?
-Out hiking
-Where to?
-Rokko Mountain
I'd like to go. It's Sunday
I was invited...
...but they were all children
and someone like me...
-What?
-100 yen
I didn't say it
You 're unfair
Shall I help?
I'm finished
Pass me that, Sister
This one?
Hisao-san is busy on Sundays, too?
Yes, with this and that
It's difficult running
a small company
Father's against a merger, but...
It must be difficult
I guess we'll succumb eventually
You can't win over big capital
Father would like
to continue as now...
...but it's doubtful
Oh, that was wonderful exercise
You 've recovered completely
I've caused you all lots of anxiety
I'm all right now.
Look how strong I am
Father...
What?
-I must apologise to you
-For what?
I said such spiteful things
I don't mind
I'm used to it
That hurts me...
...but it would have been unbearable
if you had died
Nonsense. I won't die so easily
I have many things
on my mind...
...about you and Noriko
I'm sorry to worry you
Are you undecided?
Will you sew this?
The seam is torn
-Tired, Grandad?
-Not at all
Let's play hide-and-seek
Hide-and-seek? Wait a moment
Hurry up!
Now, wait
Hurry up!
Am I a bother?
What are you doing?
Writing a letter
To whom?
Just someone
I know
What?
It's to him
That heavy eater
No
Any new developments?
No, nothing new.
I must give an answer soon
What will you answer?
I haven't any reason to reject him
Then marry him
It's easy for you to say
But why?
He seems like a nice man
If I married him...
...the family would,
of course, be relieved, but...
...it isn't so simple
Do you love someone else?
You do. I thought so
Who is he?
What's he doing?
Remember when I went skiing
last winter?
You met him then?
Is he the one
we met at the department store?
Is he the one?
You see him often?
No, he's in Sapporo at present
Sapporo?
My, he's gone far away
The letter is to him, then?
Just a reply
-I wonder...
-No
Just a reply
I don't know how Father
and the others feel...
...but you mustn't regret
your choice
After all, it's your life
That's just the way I feel
Well, anyone would waver
Did you also?
I was happy. I never regretted it
I'm still happy,
although people feel sorry for me
You plan to remain single, then?
I've been wondering...
...whether I can keep it up
You 're the devil
Again?
I'm tired. Let's stop, shall we?
That's unfair
I just remembered some
