[02:07] MARUKO
    Yes, I'm coming.
[02:13] MARUKO/I
    Oh, I was dreaming.
[02:16] MARUKO/I
    Come to think of it,
    I think I heard Mom just now.
[02:22] MARUKO/I
    Ah, I'm sleepy again.
[02:25] MARUKO/I
    My gosh, I have to get up.
[02:28] MARUKO/I
    I'm too sleepy...
[02:30] MARUKO/I
    Why are my upper and lower eyelids so friendly?

    Enough is enough!
[02:47] SUMIRE
    I told you to wake up! Now!

    Kosugi, that's French baguette, isn't it?
[03:11] KOSUGI
    That's right.
[03:13] KOSUGI
    I got it from a French person.
[03:15] MARUKO
    Really, you got it from a French person?
[03:18] TAMAE'S DAD
    Yes, I'm actually French.
[03:22] MARUKO
    Is that so?
[03:24] MARUKO
    Then Tama-chan's French too?

    I am.
[03:29] MARUKO
    Ouch!
[03:30] MARUKO
    You smacked my butt...

    Wake up now, or another one's coming!
[03:35] MARUKO
    If I can stay asleep for one more smack
    on the butt, I'd happily take it...

    You idiot!
[03:42] SUMIRE
    Why do you have such a problem
    waking up in the morning?
[03:45] MARUKO
    I want to skip school today.
[03:48] SUMIRE
    Stand up!

[04:15] MARUKO
    I'm so sorry.
[04:19] TAMAE
    Maru-chan, what happened?
[04:21] TAMAE
    Were you sick or something?
[04:24] MARUKO
    No.
[04:25] MARUKO
    It's really pathetic, but I have
    trouble waking up in the morning.
[04:30] MARUKO
    And it's gotten worse lately.
[04:32] TAMAE
    It doesn't help to go to sleep early?
[04:34] MARUKO
    No.
[04:36] MARUKO
    No matter how early I go to bed,
    it's tough for me to wake up.
[04:39] MARUKO
    I try hard to wake up, but
    somehow I get sleepy,
[04:44] MARUKO
    and sometimes find myself in a dream.
[04:47] TAMAE
    In a dream?!
[04:50] MARUKO
    It's a dumb story.
[04:52] MARUKO
    But this morning, I had a dream
    that your dad was French.
[04:57] TAMAE
    Oh, is that so?
[05:01] TAMAE
    Maru-chan, if you're going to be late to
    school for having a silly dream like that,
[05:05] TAMAE
    you really should try and wake up
    early, no matter how hard it may be.
[05:08] MARUKO
    You couldn't be more right.

    My resolution will be to
    become an even bigger eater.
[05:32] NAGASAWA
    Fujiki-kun's resolution is that one, right?
[05:35] FUJIKI
    Huh? Which one?
[05:37] NAGASAWA
    Are you making me say it?
[05:40] FUJIKI
    About me being cowardly?
[05:42] NAGASAWA
    Is there anything else you need to fix?
[05:47] FUJIKI/I
    Am I that cowardly that I have to make
    it my new year's resolution to change it?
[05:54] FUJIKI/I
    No, I don't think that's true.
[05:57] FUJIKI/I
    Let's try and think of some other goals.
[06:01] FUJIKI/I
    Well...
[06:03] FUJIKI/I
    Um...
[06:06] FUJIKI/I
    Hm? I can't think of any.

[07:19] STUDENTS
    Yes, sir!
[07:22] MARUKO
    How do you wake up in the morning?
[07:25] OHNO
    How? I mean, I set an alarm clock
    and I wake up when it goes off.
[07:30] SUGIYAMA
    Same here.
[07:32] TOSHIKO
    Me, too.
[07:33] TAMAE
    Me, too.
[07:35] YAMANE
    I do, too.
[07:37] MARUKO
    You all wake up with an alarm clock?!
[07:40] OHNO
    Isn't that what anyone would do?
[07:44] YAMANE
    It's so normal that I can't really
    think of any other way of waking up.
[07:48] TOSHIKO
    Maru-chan, you don't use
    an alarm clock to wake up?
[07:53] MARUKO
    No.
[07:54] MARUKO
    Every morning, my mom yells at me like
    three times, and she pulls off my covers,
[08:00] MARUKO
    smacks my butt, and I get pulled
    up, and finally I can wake up.
[08:07] OHNO
    I've never heard of anyone waking up like that.
[08:10] SUGIYAMA
    Right.
[08:12] YAMANE
    You cause so much trouble for
    your mom just to wake up?
[08:16] YAMANE
    You really should reconsider
    how you live your daily life!
[08:20] MARUKO
    That's why I'm asking you questions!
[08:23] MARUKO
    I do know that I shouldn't
    be living like this forever.
[08:29] MARUKO
    But when morning comes,
    it's just too hard to wake up.
[08:34] YAMANE
    You don't have enough guts!
[08:37] YAMANE
    No matter how sleepy you are,
    bite the bullet and wake up!
[08:40] YAMANE
    Waking up from your sleep
    shouldn't affect you at all!
[08:45] YAMANE
    Compared to my abdominal pain, waking
    up is like the easiest thing!
[08:51] OHNO
    Y-You may be right.
[08:54] SUGIYAMA
    Yeah. Compared to abdominal pain,
    waking up shouldn't be hard at all.
[08:59] TOSHIKO
    That's true.
[09:00] TOSHIKO
    It's not painful or anything.
[09:03] TAMAE
    Yeah, all it takes is a bit of effort.
[09:09] YAMANE
    See? You need to make more effort, Sakura.
[09:12] YAMANE
    Don't cause problems for your parents
    just to wake up in the morning.
[09:16] YAMANE
    Troubling your family for such
    an easy thing is the worst!
[09:23] TOSHIKO
    Oh no, Yamane-kun!
[09:27] OHNO
    He got overexcited, and his
    stomach couldn't take it.
[09:30] YAMANE
    That's exactly right...
[09:34] YAMANE
    I'm causing trouble for everyone again.
[09:38] YAMANE
    I was the one telling you not to
    do that, but look at me now...
[09:51] YAMANE
    Getting pulled up by others when
    I'm not even sleepy... Funny, huh?
[09:55] OHNO
    Hey, you don't need to talk
    when you have abdominal pain.
[09:59] YAMANE
    You're right.
[10:01] SUGIYAMA
    Okay, we'll walk Yamane home.
[10:05] MARUKO/TAMAE/TOSHIKO
    Okay.
[10:07] SUGIYAMA
    Are you all right?
[10:10] TAMAE
    Yamane sure has guts, but...
[10:13] TOSHIKO
    Right. He has guts, but
    his body can't take it.
[10:18] MARUKO
    But he wakes up in the morning,
    so that's commendable.
[10:22] TOSHIKO
    Maru-chan, why don't you start
    by buying an alarm clock?
[10:26] TAMAE
    Yeah, that's a good idea.
[10:29] MARUKO
    I think I'll do that.
[10:30] MARUKO
    After learning that everyone
    uses an alarm clock to wake up,
[10:35] MARUKO
    I'll have to get one for myself.
[10:43] YAMANE
    My resolution is to strengthen my stomach...
[10:49] SUGIYAMA
    O-Okay...
[10:51] YAMANE
    It was the same last year.
[10:57] YAMANE
    Maybe it'll be the same next year...
[11:01] OHNO
    Don't get discouraged!
[11:04] YAMANE
    You're right.

    But it feels like such a waste.
[11:29] MARUKO
    I'd rather spend it on something else.

    With 1,380 yen, I can buy a manga,
    snacks, ice cream and meat buns,

    or I could splurge and get
    some roasted sweet potatoes.
[11:56] MARUKO/I
    Uh, what do I do?
[11:58] MARUKO/I
    It's not like I truly want an alarm clock...
[12:03] MARUKO
    But if I buy an alarm clock with my
    allowance, I might get complimented by everyone.

    So did I.
[19:31] MARUKO
    Oh, that's great.
[19:33] MARUKO
    See you later!
[19:34] MARUKO/I
    No offense, but I don't care about
    the trees waking up early right now.
[19:39] MARUKO/I
    If he woke up that early, maybe
    he can go to school in my place!
[19:45] MARUO
    Sakura-san, you were almost late again.
[19:49] MARUO
    What on earth are you thinking?!
[19:52] MARUKO
    I don't know.
[19:54] MARUKO
    I spent 1,380 yen on that thing,
    and this is what happens?
[19:58] MARUKO
    What the heck am I doing?
[20:01] MARUKO
    Maruo-kun, what am I thinking? Tell me.
[20:05] MARUO
    Huh?!
[20:07] NAGASAWA
    Looks like Sakura darted toward
    her goal and self-destructed.
[20:11] YAMANE
    Right.
[20:12] YAMANE
    It seems that way.
[20:13] NAGASAWA
    That didn't take long.
[20:15] YAMANE
    Yeah. It was a new year's
    resolution for next year,
[20:18] YAMANE
    so self-destructing it this
    year is out of the question.
[20:22] TOSHIKO
    Sometimes chaos ensues when you stop
    your alarm and fall back to sleep.
[20:29] TAMAE
    You're right.
[20:31] TOSHIKO
    You stop your alarm, but no one wakes you
    up, then an ungodly amount of time passes.
[20:37] MARUKO
    That's exactly what happened.
[20:40] TAMAE
    In your case, maybe your mom should
    wake you up, not your alarm clock.
[20:45] MARUKO
    I think I'll do that. Oh boy...
[20:48] HIROSHI
    I told you.
[20:50] HIROSHI
    I knew it'd be a waste.
[20:52] SAKIKO
    It only took one day, no less.
[20:56] MARUKO
    Would someone be interested in buying this?
[20:59] MARUKO
    It's still new.
[21:03] MARUKO
    I'll give it to you for 1,000 yen.
[21:05] MARUKO
    It's a bargain.
[21:08] MARUKO
    Then how about 800 yen?!
[21:15] MARUKO
    Grandpa, would you buy it for 500 yen?
[21:18] TOMOZOU
    Okay, I'll buy it!
[21:20] HIROSHI
    Hey! Don't you spoil her, Grandpa!
[21:23] HIROSHI
    300 yen is more than enough for this thing.
[21:26] HIROSHI
    I'd buy it for 300 yen.
[21:28] MARUKO
    Fine, give me 300 yen.
[21:31] HIROSHI
    Good.
[21:33] MARUKO
    Thanks.
[21:37] NARRATOR/I
    The alarm clock that was resold dirt cheap,
    and now it's put to work in the kitchen.
[21:47] SUMIRE
    Oh, good.
[21:48] SUMIRE
    This clock is actually helpful.
[21:51] SUMIRE
    Dad unexpectedly made a good buy.
[21:53] HIROSHI
    Right?
[21:55] HIROSHI
    That's all fine and dandy, but
    shouldn't you wake up Maruko soon?
[22:00] HIROSHI
    She's without an alarm clock, after all.
[22:04] SUMIRE
    Oh yes, you're right.
