SIGN    Sakura [01:48] MARUKO     Uh, it's so hot. [01:50] MARUKO     I'm sweating even when I sit still. [01:53] MARUKO     Ugh, this is ridiculous. [01:55] MARUKO     Why is our house so hot? [01:58] NARRATOR/I     That's because you don't have A/C. [02:02] MARUKO     I don't feel like doing anything. [02:06] MARUKO     I'll just have to take a nap like     this and wait for summer to end. [02:11] SUMIRE     Maruko? Maruko! [02:15] SUMIRE     Tama-chan's on the phone. [02:17] SUMIRE     Come pick it up. [02:19] MARUKO     I'm too hot to play. [02:22] MARUKO     Tell her I'm not at home. [02:25] MARUKO     If only we had A/C, I'd play with a lot, [02:29] MARUKO     help around the house, and study happily... [02:33] MARUKO     So nice and cool! [02:36] MARUKO     Chores, studying, bring it on! [02:41] MARUKO     Too bad for you. [02:42] MARUKO     Because you were reluctant to pay     for A/C, your child's unmotivated. [02:47] SUMIRE     You fool! [02:48] SUMIRE     Stop being so greedy! [02:50] SUMIRE     Back in the old days, they didn't     have A/Cs, but they persevered! [02:54] MARUKO     Again with "back in the old days"? [02:57] MARUKO     Please stop. You're only making me miserable. [03:00] MARUKO     Tell it like it is and say we     don't have money for A/C. [03:06] SUMIRE     We don't have money for A/C. [03:10] MARUKO     You actually said it. [03:13] MARUKO     Hey, let's buy an A/C. [03:16] MARUKO     I'll pay you back once I'm successful. [03:18] SUMIRE     You don't even study, so     how can you be successful? [03:22] MARUKO     I'll work hard to pay you back,     even if I'm not successful! [03:26] SUMIRE     How will you make money? [03:28] MARUKO     Even if I have to become a hippie,     I'll make wire crafts to pay you back. SIGN    I can customize your name [03:36] SUMIRE     This is dumb. [03:39] SUMIRE     I have to go and let Tama-chan know. [03:48] MARUKO     It's too hot to do anything, but     doing nothing is boring too. [03:54] MARUKO     I don't wanna do anything,     but I don't wanna be bored. [03:58] MARUKO     I guess I'm a living corpse. [04:03] MARUKO     My gosh, this is so pathetic. [04:08] MARUKO     Oh, I know! [04:10] MARUKO     Maybe I'll go visit Hanawa-kun. [04:12] MARUKO     That house must be cool. [04:14] MARUKO     I'm going to give him a call now. [04:17] MARUKO     His house is paradise in the neighborhood. [04:24] MARUKOK     Oh, hello? [04:26] MARUKOK     Is this Hide the Butler? [04:28] MARUKOK     Hello, this is Sakura. [04:30] MARUKOK     Is Hanawa-kun home? [04:32] HIDE     Unfortunately, the young master     is at the beach in town. [04:37] HIDE     He should be back by evening. [04:41] HIDE     I'm terribly sorry. [04:43] MARUKO     Really, a beach in town? [04:45] MARUKO     That's a rather frugal choice for him. [04:47] MARUKO     Not some beach overseas, huh? [04:49] MARUKO     Not that it matters. [04:51] MARUKO     By the way, your voice sounds strange. [04:55] MARUKO     Maybe you're tired? [04:57] HIDE     Yes. The thing is, I'm feeling     a bit of heat fatigue. [05:02] HIDE     I'm not too young anymore. [05:07] NARRATOR/I     Hide the Butler is polite     to Maruko even if he's busy. [05:12] NARRATOR/I     He'll be 68 this year. [05:16] MARUKO     Oh man, the beach, huh? Must be nice. [05:20] MARUKO     I hope something good happens to me too. [05:24] MARUKO     Grandpa, anything good happening? [05:27] TOMOZOU     Huh? Anything good? [05:29] TOMOZOU     Hm, let me think... [05:32] TOMOZOU     What kind of thing would be a good thing? [05:36] MARUKO     Like someone gave you ten million yen. [05:40] TOMOZOU     What?! [05:41] TOMOZOU     That is a good thing! [05:42] TOMOZOU     And what do you plan to     do with ten million yen? [05:46] MARUKO     Take that money, and you     and I will go on a trip. [05:51] MARUKO     The destination is Las Vegas. [05:54] TOMOZOU     Las Vegas?! [06:06] TOMOZOU     Do you mean to tell me that you plan to     gamble in Las Vegas to hit the jackpot?! [06:12] MARUKO     That's right. [06:13] MARUKO     Women should have courage,     men should have charm. [06:17] TOMOZOU/I     I'm in awe... I'm in awe, Maruko! [06:20] TOMOZOU/I     What a gambler for a child! [06:24] MARUKO     You and I will win one hundred million     yen with a roulette in Las Vegas! [06:30] TOMOZOU     We'll say goodbye to a poor life, then. [06:35] MARUKO     Listen, if we won one hundred million yen,      would we be richer than Hanawa-kun? [06:41] TOMOZOU     One hundred million won't be enough. [06:44] MARUKO     Then how about 500 million yen? [06:47] TOMOZOU     Still not enough. [06:48] MARUKO     How about one billion? [06:51] TOMOZOU     Nah, they'd still be richer than us. [06:57] MARUKO     Fine, how about ten billion yen?! [07:00] TOMOZOU     Why, yes! [07:02] TOMOZOU     We'd be richer than them! [07:05] MARUKO/I     Grandpa... with ten billion,     we can beat Hanawa-kun. [07:11] TOMOZOU/I     Yes... [07:14] TOMOZOU/I     With ten billion, we're almost invisible. [07:19] MARUKO     But for us to make ten billion yen, someone     will need to give us ten million first. [07:25] TOMOZOU     Right. [07:26] TOMOZOU     And then we need to make it     thousand-fold with roulette. [07:35] NARRATOR/I     It's still a long way to     get to Hanawa-kun's level. [07:39] MARUKO     But what would you do if you     really had ten billion yen? [07:44] TOMOZOU     Hmm, I've never really     thought about that before. [07:50] NARRATOR/I     Of course you haven't. [07:52] MARUKO     Let's buy a tropical island. [07:57] MARUKO     Then we'll turn it into a dream island for us! [08:01] TOMOZOU/I     "A dream island"?! [08:21] TOMOZOU     I love it! [08:22] TOMOZOU     I'll be so happy with ten billion yen! [08:28] MARUKO     But a tropical island would be too hot. [08:31] MARUKO     Shall we buy land somewhere cooler? [08:33] TOMOZOU     We just need to buy A/C. [08:36] TOMOZOU     We have ten billion yen, after all. [08:39] MARUKO     That's true. [08:40] MARUKO     You're really smart, Grandpa. [08:43] MARUKO     I'm truly happy to be a grandchild     of a sharp person like you. [08:47] TOMOZOU     Oh please, that's an exaggeration. [08:51] NARRATOR/I     It really is. [08:53] MARUKO     Buying an A/C with ten billion     yen is like nothing, right? [08:58] TOMOZOU     Sure, like a fart. [09:01] MARUKO     Buying 100 A/Cs wouldn't even make a dent. [09:04] TOMOZOU     It would only be like ten million yen. [09:07] MARUKO     So one A/C is as good as if it's free. [09:10] TOMOZOU     Exactly. [09:12] MARUKO     If it's as good as free,     maybe we can afford it! [09:16] MARUKO     I'll ask Mom one more time. [09:21] TOMOZOU     How young she is... [09:25] TOMOZOU/I     "Ten billion yen" [09:27] TOMOZOU/I     "Impossible to use it up" [09:29] TOMOZOU/I     "Such is my life" [09:30] TOMOZOU/I     Tomozou's poem of the old man. [09:35] MARUKO     Mom, I still think we need to buy an A/C! [09:39] MARUKO     Please reconsider. [09:41] SUMIRE     You're persistent. [09:42] SUMIRE     I told you, "no." [09:43] MARUKO     But look, just imagine that     you have ten billion yen. [09:48] MARUKO     Buying one measly A/C is like nothing. [09:51] MARUKO     With ten billion yen, a 200-thousand-yen     A/C is as good as free. SIGN    Ten billion [09:57] MARUKO     Which means it's free. SIGN    200 thousand SIGN    Free [10:01] MARUKO     Since it's free, please buy it. [10:03] SUMIRE     What? [10:04] SUMIRE     Ten billion yen? [10:07] MARUKO     Like I said, 200-thousand yen for A/C     out of ten billion yen is like nothing. [10:15] SUMIRE     We don't have it. [10:18] SUMIRE     There is no ten billion yen... [10:23] SUMIRE     Maruko, I don't think your     brain's working right. [10:29] SUMIRE     Why don't you dump some water on your     head to cool it down in the bath? [10:42] MARUKO     Cool it down, huh? [10:45] MARUKO     Yeah, seriously. [10:47] MARUKO     Getting excited at ten billion     yen that doesn't exist. [10:53] MARUKO     It feels like I've been having a long dream. [10:57] MARUKO     I think it's high time I look at reality. [11:00] HIROSHI     Hey, Maruko. [11:03] HIROSHI     I've got something cool. [11:04] HIROSHI     Come here. [11:07] MARUKO     What? Something cool? [11:10] NARRATOR/I     Continue to the second half. [11:23] MARUKO     Cool it down, huh? [11:25] MARUKO     Yeah, seriously. [11:28] MARUKO     Getting excited at ten billion     yen that doesn't exist. [11:33] MARUKO     It feels like I've been having a long dream. [11:37] MARUKO     I think it's high time I look at reality. [11:41] HIROSHI     Hey, Maruko. [11:43] HIROSHI     I've got something cool. [11:45] HIROSHI     Come here. [11:48] MARUKO     What? Something cool? [11:50] MARUKO     What is it? [11:51] HIROSHI     Just come here. [11:56] MARUKO     Rhinoceros beetles! [11:58] HIROSHI     Something cool, eh? [12:00] MARUKO     Wow... [12:06] MARUKO     Thank you, Dad! [12:09] MARUKO     I'm so happy! [12:10] MARUKO     You know me better than anyone. [12:14] MARUKO     You're a great father. [12:16] HIROSHI     It's only rhinoceros beetles... [12:22] TOMOZOU     Oh, I see. [12:24] TOMOZOU     Hiroshi knows you more than anyone, huh? [12:27] TOMOZOU     Then it wouldn't make you sad     if I kicked the bucket soon. [12:38] HIROSHI     Jeez... [12:41] MARUKO     Dad, I like that Japanese     rhinoceros beetles seem honest. [12:46] HIROSHI     Oh, you know about non-Japanese     rhinoceros beetles? [12:49] MARUKO     I do. [12:50] MARUKO     There are really big ones     called Hercules beetles. [12:55] MARUKO     I saw a taxidermy of it in a museum once. [12:59] MARUKO     It was about 20cm big. [13:03] MARUKO     It looked a bossy bad boy,     and it didn't look cute. [13:08] HIROSHI/I     A bossy bad boy? [13:14] SAKIKO     Oh, but I like Hercules beetles. [13:17] SAKIKO     I think they're cool. [13:19] SAKIKO     It's got the air of urban hard rock. [13:23] SAKIKO     In comparison, Japanese rhinoceros     beetles are thickheaded, dull bumpkins. [13:29] SAKIKO     Not good at all. [13:31] SAKIKO     If you're born as a beetle, you've     got to be a Hercules beetle. [13:35] HIROSHI/I     A thickheaded, dull bumpkin, huh? [13:40] MARUKO     How dare you say that in front of     the Japanese rhinoceros beetles! [13:46] MARUKO     You apologize to them right now! [13:49] SAKIKO     No way. [13:50] SAKIKO     I'm being honest about what I think. [13:53] SAKIKO     Hercules beetles are cooler. [13:57] MARUKO     That's not true! [13:58] MARUKO     Hercules beetles are useless     blockheads who are just big! [14:02] SAKIKO     Humph, Japanese rhinoceros     beetles are useless too. [14:07] SAKIKO     If they're both useless, then might as well     they should be big, since they're cooler! [14:10] MARUKO     A woman like you will fall for flashy     good-for-nothings who make you cry. SIGN    Hercules [14:22] SAKIKO     You'll be stuck with a     dull idiot for a husband!

[14:46] HIROSHI     They said something about     beetles, but I'm not really sure. [14:53] MARUKO     It hurts, it hurts! [14:55] MARUKO     My head hurts! [14:58] MARUKO     Big sis hit me! [14:59] MARUKO     I'm deeply injured! [15:02] SAKIKO     You hit your head on the     corner of the desk yourself. [15:06] SAKIKO     It's your own fault! [15:07] MARUKO     You evil devil! [15:09] SUMIRE     Come on, stop crying, Maruko. [15:12] SUMIRE     Why don't you have some watermelon? [15:14] MARUKO     Watermelon? [15:22] MARUKO     Watermelon is like the symbol of summer. [15:25] MARUKO     It's perfect for this season. [15:27] HIROSHI     She's smiling already. [15:29] HIROSHI     How easy. [15:31] SAKIKO     She's a simpleton. [15:32] SUMIRE     Stop it, Big sis. [15:34] MARUKO     We don't have A/C, and this     isn't a tropical island, [15:39] MARUKO     but sharing watermelon with family and     seeing rhino beetles like this is happiness. [15:44] HIROSHI     Exactly! Well said, Maruko. [15:48] SAKIKO     I'd be happier with an     A/C and a tropical island. [15:52] MARUKO     What, you wanna pick a fight with me again?! [15:56] SAKIKO     Isn't it true, though? [15:58] SAKIKO     A/C and a tropical island are much     better than watermelon and rhino beetles. [16:02] MARUKO     Big sis, wanting something     you can't have is pointless. [16:06] MARUKO     You've got to live your life more positively. [16:08] HIROSHI     That's right. [16:09] HIROSHI     Big sis is rather cranky today. [16:17] SAKIKO     Well, when I went to Yoshiko-san's     house today, everyone said, [16:23] SAKIKO     "In summer, nothing beats lying     on a couch in a cool room [16:27] SAKIKO     with A/C and drinking juice." [16:31] SAKIKO     Why don't we have A/C or a couch? [16:34] SAKIKO     Among the six of my friends, I was the     only one who had neither of those! [16:47] HIROSHI     Well, excuse me for not     having A/C or a couch. [16:51] HIROSHI     I'll have you know that I'm     working as hard as I can. [16:54] TOMOZOU/I     This is bad... [16:56] TOMOZOU/I     There's an awkward air in the family! [17:01] TOMOZOU/I     I, Tomozou, must do something! [17:05] TOMOZOU     Okay Big sis, I'll use my saving     to buy us A/C and a couch! [17:12] TOMOZOU     Are you happy now? [17:15] TOMOZOU     Don't be shy! [17:17] HIROSHI     D-Don't say silly things like that so easily! [17:20] HIROSHI     There's no room to put a couch in,     and A/C eats up electricity. [17:25] HIROSHI     Man, stop suggesting something so ridiculous. [17:29] TOMOZOU/I     Hiroshi yelled at me! [17:31] TOMOZOU/I     My own son! [17:33] TOMOZOU/I     I just... I just wanted to clear out     the awkward air in the family... [17:41] TOMOZOU     How pathetic. [17:44] TOMOZOU     Did I do something wrong? [17:48] TOMOZOU     Eh, Hiroshi? [17:50] MARUKO     Oh no, Grandpa's crying! [17:53] HIROSHI     Why? [17:55] TOMOZOU     I simply thought... I'd buy a couch     and A/C for my grand kids... [18:01] TOMOZOU     Then I got yelled at by my     own son for being ridiculous. [18:06] TOMOZOU     I've gotten too old, I guess... [18:14] TOMOZOU     Getting old is terrible, I tell you. [18:20] TOMOZOU     You have no need for a     senile old fool, I see... [18:30] SAKIKO     I've had enough!

SIGN    Sakura [18:50] MARUKO     Big sis... [18:53] SAKIKO     Ah well. [18:55] SAKIKO     I guess you're right in that there's no     point in wanting something you can't have. [19:00] SAKIKO     Of course I know that. [19:01] MARUKO     But I also get that you envy     your friends for having A/C. [19:07] MARUKO     It's summer break, after all. [19:09] MARUKO     I hope we get to do something fun. [19:12] MARUKO     Look at me, staying at home all day long... [19:18] MARUKO     I feel like my day was a waste of time.
