    Transfer complete.
[00:13] TAKUMI
    Wh-What's going on?
[00:15] MIRA
    Th-This is my mother...
[00:17] TAKUMI
    Your mom?!
[00:18] MIRA
    She's sent me a video letter.
[00:20] ADARA
    Dearest Mira.
[00:22] ADARA
    I have a secret I've never told you about.
[00:27] ADARA
    When I was a little younger than you are now,
[00:30] ADARA
    I was unable to come to terms
    with a political marriage
[00:33] ADARA
    and ran away from Planet Wid.
[00:47] (Flashback) FIANCE
    Why, Adara?
[00:49] (Flashback) FIANCE
    Marry me, and Planet Wid will know peace.
[00:52] (Flashback) FIANCE
    You'll want for nothing and be able to do
    as you please for the rest of your life.
[00:56] (Flashback) ADARA
    Yeah, well, I still don't like it!
[00:59] (Flashback) FIANCE
    Adara!
[01:01] (Flashback) ADARA
    You're too clingy!
SIGN    Astro Note
[03:27] ADARA
    And that's how I met Shimotakaido Tasuke-san.
[04:03] ADARA
    Tasuke-san looked after me when I was wounded
    and kept me well-fed with his cooking.
[04:11] ADARA
    Porridge, dumpling soup, steamed yam...
[04:14] ADARA
    Everything he made was delicious.
[04:20] ADARA
    Soon, we were in love.
[04:25] ADARA
    There were times I hoped
    I could stay on Earth forever,
[04:30] ADARA
    but it wasn't meant to be—for I had already
    been anointed the next queen of Wid.
[04:37] ADARA
    A Widi military squad pinpointed
    my location and came for me,
[04:43] ADARA
    so I decided to flee together with Tasuke-san.
[04:46] ADARA
    I wanted to be with him no matter what.
[04:49] ADARA
    I intended to spend
    the rest of my life with him.
[04:53] ADARA
    But alas!
[04:56] ADARA
    Fate is a cruel mistress.
[04:58] ADARA
    We were hunted down.
[05:01] ADARA
    They threatened that, should I
    refuse to return to Planet Wid,
[05:04] ADARA
    they would blow the Earth to smithereens.
[05:08] ADARA
    My own troops! How terrifying!
[05:12] ADARA
    "Adara-san, I will remain here,
    forever awaiting your return!"
[05:19] ADARA
    I was forced into returning to Wid.
[05:23] ADARA
    Oh, such a tragic love story.
[05:26] ADARA
    The young couple in love were torn apart
    by a heartless twist of fate.
[05:31] MIRA
    Is Wid's military really that bullish?
[05:33] NAOSUKE
    Artistic license, I'd say.
[05:34] ADARA
    Unbeknownst to the Widi soldiers,
[05:37] ADARA
    I decided to leave the key behind on Earth.
[05:40] MIRA
    Why?!
[05:41] ADARA
    You must be wondering why right about now.
[05:45] ADARA
    So long as the key was on Earth,
    I could go back one day,
[05:50] ADARA
    and I could see Tasuke-san again.
[05:53] NAOSUKE
    Why is Her Majesty using
    an avatar of her in her youth?
[05:57] ADARA
    But soon, it became clear
    that I was pregnant with you.
[06:05] ADARA
    Mira, your real father was an Earthling—
    Shimotakaido Tasuke-san.
[06:11] NAOSUKE
    What?!
[06:13] ADARA
    His Majesty, your adopted father,
    knew everything.
[06:18] ADARA
    And he still had the grace to marry me.
[06:22] MIRA
    Why would she tell me all this now?
[06:24] ADARA
    You must be wondering
    why I'm telling you all this now.
[06:30] ADARA
    In truth, I've always wanted to.
    I just didn't know how to break it to you.
[06:34] ADARA
    In that time, you grew old enough to need
    the key to assert your right to the throne.
[06:39] ADARA
    I love His Majesty
    with all my heart, obviously.
[06:43] ADARA
    But I have never once
    forgotten Tasuke-san, either!
[06:47] NAOSUKE
    Her Majesty's pulling out all her acting chops.
[06:49] MIRA
    She tried to make it sound
    like a touching story,
[06:52] MIRA
    but basically, she just ran away from home
    and let a man knock her up.
[06:55] NAOSUKE
    Hey!
[06:56] ADARA
    You may well be insulting me right about now,
[07:02] ADARA
    but all I've told you is the truth.
[07:05] TAKUMI
    "Wido"...
[07:07] TAKUMI
    The voice I heard from her room...
[07:08] NAOSUKE
    So, where is the key?
[07:10] ADARA
    I'm sure you're trying to locate
    the key right about now.
[07:14] NAOSUKE
    A Hubby?!
[07:15] ADARA
    But before that, let me tell you about
    all the delicacies I ate on Earth.
[07:18] TAKUMI
    "Hubby"?
[07:20] ADARA
    I'm sure you must be marveling
    at Terran cuisine right about now.
[07:24] ADARA
    Have you had steamed sweet potatoes yet?
[07:27] ADARA
    The breakfasts that Tasuke-san cooked
[07:30] ADARA
    included grilled fish,
    sweet potato porridge, boiled spinach,
[07:33] ADARA
    miso soup, pickled vegetables,
    mugwort dumplings...
[07:37] ADARA
    All of them were truly,
[07:38] SHOIN
    Hey.
[07:38] MIRA
    Shoin! Catch the squid!
[07:40] ADARA
    divinely delicious!
[07:43] SHOIN
    Roger!
[07:44] ADARA
    Like, OMG!
[07:56] MIRA
    U-Uh, Wakabayashi-san, what are you cooking?
[08:00] TOMIHIRO
    Curry with rice. Ren said he was craving it.
[08:04] TOMIHIRO
    Tasuke-san made this often,
    and I'm following his recipe.
[08:09] TOMIHIRO
    He'd serve it with Worcestershire sauce
    to put his own spin on the dish.
[08:15] MIRA
    Wow, that sounds great.
[08:17] TOMIHIRO
    I need to go poop, so could you
    keep an eye on the curry?
[08:21] MIRA
    Sure.
[08:23] SHOIN
    Quit hiding and show yourself!
[08:27] MIRA
    Quiet.
[08:30] ADARA
    The flow of time is different
    between Earth and Wid.
[08:33] ADARA
    A year on Wid is equal to three on Earth.
[08:38] ADARA
    Find the key and come back to Wid
    before you overtake me in age.
[08:44] ADARA
    The peace of Planet Wid—
    nay, the universe—is in your hands.
[08:50] ADARA
    The glow of the key should guide you to it.
[08:54] ADARA
    As long as Tasuke-san
    hasn't changed its location,
[08:56] ADARA
    in the yard...
[09:02] NAOSUKE
    Hot! Hot!
[09:03] MIRA
    Ladle!
[09:10] SHOIN
    Watch out!
[09:19] MIRA
    Dearest Mother.
[09:21] MIRA
    You sank into Tasuke-san's curry
    and died an explosive death.
[09:25] NAOSUKE
    Don't say that. It's bad vibes.
[09:27] MIRA
    All I've said is the truth.
[09:29] SHOIN
    So, this Shimotakaido Tasuke person
    is Mira's real father?
[09:34] MIRA
    I'm not sure what to do with this information.
[09:37] NAOSUKE
    Well, we know the key's in the yard.
[09:39] NAOSUKE
    The Hubbies may have heard it too, though.
[09:42] MIRA
    She said the key's glow should guide us to it.
[09:45] MIRA
    What does that mean?
[09:46] SHOIN
    So, uh, what do we do about him?
[09:48] NAOSUKE
    Oh, I forgot about that.
[09:50] SHOIN
    He looks like he's seen a ghost.
[09:53] TAKUMI
    This must be a bad dream.
[09:56] TAKUMI
    It has to be, yeah. Dogs don't talk.
[09:59] NAOSUKE
    This is real.
[10:01] NAOSUKE
    If you could keep what you saw a secret,
    we'd really appreciate it.
[10:06] NAOSUKE
    Well, not that anyone would believe you.
    They'd just write you off as a weirdo.
[10:11] TAKUMI
    Wido...
[10:13] NAOSUKE
    That's right. Each of us is a Wido
    from the planet of Wid.
[10:19] TAKUMI
    Mira-san's a Wido...
[10:21] SHOIN
    As am I.
[10:23] TAKUMI
    The hubby was a squid, and the man
    in the room was actually a dog...
[10:32] TAKUMI
    Oh, was that it?
[10:35] TAKUMI
    She's a Wido, not a widow!
[10:38] TAKUMI
    Mystery solved!
[10:42] MIRA
    Miyasaka-san?
[10:44] SHOIN
    Is he going to be okay?
[10:49] NAOSUKE
    Did they bury it in the yard?
[10:50] SHOIN
    Do we just dig the whole place up?
[10:53] SHOIN
    Mira?
[10:54] MIRA
    Huh?
[10:55] MIRA
    Oh, sorry. What were we talking about?
[10:57] SHOIN
    What's wrong?
[11:05] MIRA
    Shokichi-san told me that Tasuke-san
    often sat here and gazed up at the starry sky.
[11:12] MIRA
    He was found collapsed in his room
    right here in this very lodge.
[11:17] MIRA
    It was a Saturday, a day with no breakfast.
[11:21] MIRA
    So nobody noticed until later that night.
[11:24] MIRA
    In this country, they call passing away
    like that a solitary death.
[11:30] MIRA
    He must've been waiting
    for Mother here the entire time.
[11:35] MIRA
    I feel so bad for him.
[11:37] NAOSUKE
    Collect yourself, Mira.
[11:39] NAOSUKE
    This is no time to be getting sentimental.
[11:42] NAOSUKE
    Whoever your father is,
    you're still a princess,
[11:46] NAOSUKE
    and the fate of the universe
    rests on your shoulders.
[11:48] MIRA
    I know that.
[11:51] NAOSUKE
    I'll go investigate this building once more.
[11:54] NAOSUKE
    Focus on the task at hand, Mira.
[12:00] SHOIN
    Do you really feel that way?
[12:03] SHOIN
    Do you really think Shimotakaido Tasuke
    lived such a pitiful life?
[12:14] SHOKICHI
    You want to know more about Tasuke-san?
[12:16] SHOIN
    Yes. We're interested
    in the kind of person he was.
[12:20] SHOKICHI
    The person he was, eh? I don't know...
[12:26] SHOKICHI
    Well, I was the one who found him collapsed.
[12:33] (Flashback) SHOKICHI
    Tasuke-san!
[12:34] (Flashback) SHOKICHI
    Hang in there!
[12:36] (Flashback) SHOKICHI
    What? What did you say, Tasuke-san?!
[12:41] (Flashback) TASUKE
    Salmon...
[12:43] SHOKICHI
    Even in his dying moments,
    he was thinking about breakfast.
[12:48] SHOKICHI
    He loved watching people eat
    with contentment on their faces.
[12:53] SHOKICHI
    That's the kind of person he was.
[12:56] TERUKO
    Tasuke-san, huh?
[12:58] TERUKO
    This one time, when I came home late from work,
[13:01] TERUKO
    he was watching something on his PC.
[13:03] TERUKO
    At first I thought, like, I guess
    even senior citizens get off to porn,
[13:07] TERUKO
    but he was just watching
    some video of a squirrel eating.
[13:11] TERUKO
    When I went to the kitchen for water
    later that night, he was still watching it.
[13:15] TERUKO
    He watched that video of a squirrel
    eating for like three hours.
[13:19] TERUKO
    If you ask me, he was
    probably a total whackjob.
[13:24] TERUKO
    But I loved that side of him too.
    It was so adorable.
[13:28] REN
    Forget Grandpa Tasuke.
    What I wanna know is how all this happened.
[13:34] MIRA
    Uh, well...
[13:36] TOMIHIRO
    Ren, it was Daddy's fault.
[13:38] TOMIHIRO
    I never should've asked her to watch the curry.
[13:42] REN
    But how did we get from that to this?
[13:44] TOMIHIRO
    Search your memories of the culinary tragedies
    we witnessed before Miyasaka-kun arrived.
[13:48] REN
    Okay, yeah.
[13:49] MIRA
    I'm sorry.
[13:50] SHOIN
    Curry with rice, was it?
[13:53] SHOIN
    You were following Tasuke-san's recipe?
[13:55] REN
    It's really yummy.
[13:57] REN
    Pops, can I use the PC to watch videos
    of the Tokyo Girls' Festival?
[14:01] TOMIHIRO
    After your homework.
[14:03] REN
    Okay.
[14:05] TOMIHIRO
    And only for thirty minutes!
[14:07] MIRA
    Why do you know the recipe, Wakabayashi-san?
[14:11] TOMIHIRO
    He taught me.
[14:14] TOMIHIRO
    When he'd fractured both his arms and
    couldn't cook, he taught me lots of recipes.
[14:18] TOMIHIRO
    Such as...
[14:19] TOMIHIRO
    Tortang talong,
[14:21] TOMIHIRO
    lechon kawali,
[14:23] TOMIHIRO
    and halo-halo.
[14:25] MIRA
    H-Hang on.
[14:26] MIRA
    I have lots of questions, but first,
[14:29] MIRA
    Tasuke-san fractured both his arms?
[14:32] TOMIHIRO
    Yeah. On one of his cabaret club nights.
[14:36] MIRA
    "Cabaret club"?
[14:37] TOMIHIRO
    It's a place where you can enjoy
    drinking with ladies.
[14:41] TOMIHIRO
    He tried to princess carry
    one of the girls there
[14:44] TOMIHIRO
    and ended up breaking both his arms.
[14:46] TOMIHIRO
    What an idiot, right?
[14:48] MIRA
    Right...
[14:49] SHOIN
    What are tortang talong and halo-halo?
[14:52] TOMIHIRO
    Filipino dishes.
[14:54] TOMIHIRO
    He went through a bit of
    a Philippine pub phase.
[14:57] TOMIHIRO
    Oh, those are pubs with beauties
    from the Philippines.
[15:03] TOMIHIRO
    They love it when you take them Filipino foods.
[15:08] TOMIHIRO
    He took me many a time.
[15:11] TOMIHIRO
    You see, Tasuke-san was a card-carrying
    member of the Planet of the Baps.
[15:14] SHOIN
    The Planet of the Baps?!
[15:16] TOMIHIRO
    He had a fondness for well-endowed women.
[15:19] TOMIHIRO
    Those were such good times.
[15:22] TOMIHIRO
    If he were still alive, I would've loved to
    take him to the new boob bar by the station.
[15:27] TOMIHIRO
    Oh, a boob bar is an establishment where...
[15:29] MIRA
    You don't have to bother. We get the gist.
[15:32] KURONEKO
    Delivery for you!
[15:34] KURONEKO
    It's for Shimotakaido Tasuke-san.
[15:36] MIRA
    Huh?
[15:37] SHOKICHI
    It's fine.
[15:39] SHOKICHI
    Thank you.
[15:44] SHOKICHI
    Wonder what it is.
[15:46] MIRA
    Are you sure about opening this?
[15:49] SHOKICHI
    Yeah, it's fine.
[15:50] SHOKICHI
    The sender, Akita-san,
    used to live here in Astro Lodge long ago.
[15:56] SHOKICHI
    Oh, corn!
[15:57] MIRA
    Does Akita-san know that
    Tasuke-san passed away?
[16:02] SHOKICHI
    Yes, of course.
[16:03] SHOKICHI
    The residents of Asunaro Lodge
    were all in similar situations.
[16:08] SHOKICHI
    They were all people who could barely
    make ends meet, such as students.
[16:12] SHOKICHI
    These days, they send us food,
    almost like they're paying this place back.
[16:17] SHOKICHI
    Akita-san wasn't the only one by any means.
[16:20] SHOKICHI
    Tasuke-san helped many others
    through hard times.
[16:24] SHOKICHI
    I should know. I was one of them.
[16:28] FISHMONGER
    Tasuke-san?
[16:29] FISHMONGER
    He had a heart of gold!
[16:32] FISHMONGER
    Most people around here owe him big-time.
[16:35] FISHMONGER
    I doubt anyone'd have a bad word
    to say about him.
[16:37] GREENGROCER
    Nah, screw that dude.
[16:40] GREENGROCER
    We were competing in shogi,
[16:42] GREENGROCER
    and he went and died
    when he was ahead in wins.
[16:44] GREENGROCER
    Just you wait, geezer!
    I'll be seeing you soon!
[16:48] FLORIST
    Every now and then, he'd dress up
    and buy a rose from us.
[16:52] FLORIST
    Must've been stylin' and profilin'.
[16:54] OBACHAN
    Sounds about right.
[16:56] OBACHAN
    He sure did have his silly side.
[17:02] SHOIN
    Shimotakaido Tasuke was a Planet of the Baps
    member who loved watching creatures eat.
[17:08] MIRA
    Hey.
[17:10] SHOIN
    See? He didn't live a pitiful life.
[17:14] SHOIN
    Only he knows how he really felt,
[17:18] SHOIN
    but the love that the people in his life
    had for him was very real.
[17:21] MIRA
    Yeah. You're right.
[17:25] MIRA
    Thanks, Shoin.
[17:32] MIRA
    Time to eat!
[17:39] SHOKICHI
    Here.
[17:40] SHOKICHI
    It smells and tastes
    like nothing again, right?
[17:52] MIRA
    Hey, uh, about the other day...
[17:56] TAKUMI
    Don't worry. I haven't told anyone.
[17:59] MIRA
    Thank you very much.
[18:02] MIRA
    So...
[18:04] MIRA
    Are you all right?
[18:06] MIRA
    You seem somewhat down,
[18:09] MIRA
    like you're not your usual self.
[18:13] MIRA
    So I've been worried.
[18:16] TAKUMI
    I'm okay.
[18:17] MIRA
    Really? I'm glad to hear that.
[18:20] TAKUMI
    Excuse me.
[18:31] TAKUMI
    I'm not the least bit okay.
[18:37] TAKUMI
    Mira-san's a Wido from Planet Wid.
[18:41] TAKUMI
    Which means she's a space alien.
[18:45] TAKUMI
    Does she attack people like that?
[18:49] TAKUMI
    A Wido from Planet Wid? That's way
    too much for my brain to process.
[18:55] TAKUMI
    I almost want to go back to when I thought
    she was a bereaved widow, damn it!
[19:02] OBACHAN
    Oh, if it isn't Miyasaka-kun.
    How have you been?
[19:04] OBACHAN
    You don't look good. Are you okay?
[19:07] OBACHAN
    I saw Mira-chan on a date with her
    hottie boyfriend... Shoin-san, right?
[19:12] OBACHAN
    I think that's who I saw her
    go into the love hotel with.
[19:16] FISHMONGER
    Oh, Miyasaka-kun.
[19:18] FISHMONGER
    I got some fine octopus in today.
[19:20] OBACHAN
    Shoin-san's an Englishman, isn't he?
[19:23] OBACHAN
    An entrepreneur running
    some kind of energy company.
[19:26] OBACHAN
    He's got fame, power, and money, 
    and he's a stud to boot!
[19:30] OBACHAN
    Mira-chan sure landed herself a winner.
[19:32] OBACHAN
    Aren't they just perfect together?
    The ideal couple!
[19:37] OBACHAN
    Oh, want some candy?
[19:39] TAKUMI
    Shoin isn't Mira-san's boyfriend,
[19:42] TAKUMI
    that place isn't a love hotel,
    and he's not an Englishman!
[19:45] OBACHAN
    Huh? Where's he from, then?
[19:49] TAKUMI
    Well...
[19:53] TAKUMI
    I'll take the lot!
[19:57] TAKUMI
    I was surprised enough that Mira-san
    was a Wido and that Naosuke could talk.
[20:02] TAKUMI
    But what rattled me more than anything else
    was the fact that Shoin's a Wido, too!
[20:14] MIRA
    Welcome back.
[20:16] MIRA
    What's all that?
[20:17] TAKUMI
    Octopus!
[20:20] MIRA
    Octopus?
[20:29] MIRA
    Is everything okay with Miyasaka-san?
[20:42] NAOSUKE
    Miyasaka-kun's behavior
    has been concerning, hasn't it?
[20:46] NAOSUKE
    Between you and me,
[20:48] NAOSUKE
    it seems he has a lot on his mind.
[20:52] NAOSUKE
    Maybe he needs a break from his daily routine.
[20:56] NAOSUKE
    Aren't you worried about him?
[20:59] AOI
    What can I do?
[21:01] NAOSUKE
    You know. Take him somewhere
    that might pique his interest.
[21:06] AOI
    Like where?
[21:07] NAOSUKE
    Like the movies, or a weekend event.
[21:11] NAOSUKE
    How about inviting him
    somewhere you want to go?
[21:14] AOI
    Like how?

    Like, "Would you like to go with me?"

    I was hoping things would develop
    between her and Miyasaka Takumi,

    but I don't think it's happening.
[21:30] NAOSUKE
    It's happening!
[21:42] NAOSUKE
    What's wrong? Go for it!

    That's what you pick for your first date?
    You're killing your chances!
[22:06] TAKUMI
    Oh, is this that local event?

[22:10] NAOSUKE
    Are you serious?!
[22:12] AOI
    Shall we go eat some insects together?
[22:17] NAOSUKE
    You're freaky, Aoi-chan...
